Chapter 4: Night Walking

Shendu, night.

At this moment, it was already the middle of the day, and the darkness enveloped the entire divine capital. There is no curfew restriction in the north and south of the city, and the prosperity has nothing to do with Lirenfang, which is located in the southeast of the divine capital.

On the silent brick and stone road, only the soldiers of the Jin Wuwei patrolled back and forth with lanterns, walking street by street in an indefinite order in groups of ten.

"At the second watch, close the doors and windows, and let the thieves prevent theft!"

The husband followed behind a pair of Jin Wuwei, and the sound of bangs faded away, and as he passed through an alley, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a dark shadow passing by.

His eyes weren't very good, but he could still feel it. The husband wanted to call the Jin Wuwei who was patrolling ahead, but the group of Jin Wuwei happened to turn around from the street corner.

After a little hesitation, the husband decided that it was better to have more than less, so he gave up and continued to fight the watch.

"Maybe a feral cat." The husband muttered in his heart.

In the moonlight, a figure ran wildly through the street.

This figure ran fast, and he seemed to know the law of Jin Wuwei's patrols back and forth, avoiding one probe after another.

At this moment, he came to a relatively open street, and the two teams of Jin Wuwei staggered and happened to meet on the same side. After greeting each other, the patrol continued.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the black shadow came out of the dark alley.

The moonlight shone on his face, revealing his face, this person was Xu Shou.

At this moment, Xu Shou's eyes turned bright red, and his movements were fast, and he slipped into the alley on the other side.

He came to the edge of the walls of the Lirenfang, which were very high and had been treated with a burglar-proof treatment on top. It's just that this is not a city wall after all, and there are always omissions.

A few days ago, some fur merchants from the Western Regions came to Lirenfang, they could not afford to rent a house in the fangs of the north and south cities, so they had to choose to live in the relatively remote Lirenfang temporarily, and every day they needed to use livestock to transport goods to the south market for trading.

The furs were stored by the wall, and for fear of being stolen, the merchants built a small shed on top of the furs, fixed them with wooden frames, and wrapped a lot of cloth around the shelves to hide all the furs.

Xu Shou didn't come here to steal cloth, he climbed to the top of the shed, climbed along the shed to a tree, jumped dexterously to the end of the branch of this tree, and then jumped down.

The tree was very tall, some distance from the ground. As soon as Xu Shou landed, he felt a pain coming from his ankle. He endured the pain and quickly walked away from the street.

In the same way, he climbed to the wall of Chongrangfang.

It was actually difficult to climb over the wall, but Xu Shou was very dexterous, he first stepped back a distance to run, then pedaled on the wall, climbed the top branch with his hands, and then jumped into the Chongrangfang.

He had never been to Chongrangfang.

But strangely, since he woke up, there were a lot of strange things in his mind.

In today's dream, he dreamed of that scene again, and although it was unfamiliar, it felt familiar.

Every street in Chongrangfang came to his mind, as if he had really been there. Xu Shou didn't know where to go, but there was a voice in his heart that kept calling him.

The voice was calling him to pass.

Xu Shou also avoided the patrols of Jin Wuwei one by one, and he found the mansion he saw in his dream.

This mansion is magnificent.

He quietly pushed open the door of the mansion, but he didn't expect that the door was hidden, and a light push could push the door open.

Xu Shou rarely comes to such a mansion, and at first glance, he is a big man who lives here.

In his eyes, he could see several people in this mansion, and the light emitted from them was different from the others.

In other words, what he sees in his eyes is not the appearance of a person, but the breath emanating from a person.

He uses his eyes to observe human existence.

These people seemed to have fallen asleep, Xu Shou couldn't help but pout, and the control of this family didn't seem to be very strict. It was so late that no one came to keep vigil.

He followed the call of his dream, and approached a room in the courtyard step by step.

The room was very quiet, Xu Shou was sure that no one was here, he had just raised his foot, and suddenly touched a string.

This string broke directly, and he only heard a whooshing sound, and a sound exploded in Xu Shou's ears. Xu Shou was shocked, and quickly got down and dodged the arrow.

But this is not just one arrow, there are two other arrows following this arrow, and Xu Shou rushed over when he found it.

One arrow was stabbed in Xu Shou's leg, and the other was stabbed in Xu Shou's left hand. Xu Shou hurriedly looked, and he saw a flickering reflective python in the dark.

When he looked closely, he found that it was not a real python, but embroidered on the clothes that had been passed down from people.

can wear embroidered python clothes, this family is either rich or expensive.

Xu Shoutou didn't have to look back and ran back, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a bang, and the door was closed from the outside.

He gritted his teeth and stepped on the wall, smacked a few times, and crossed the wall and fled back into the darkness.

It's a trap, or maybe the other party has already noticed it.

"My lord, do you want to keep chasing?" A group of men dressed in black brocade came running with knives.

The man in the python robe waved his hand and said, "Don't chase, if he wants to escape, you can't catch up." ”

……

The next day, Xu was woken up by an anxious knock on the door.

She hurriedly dressed up, and saw her husband lying on the bed, still asleep.

She wanted to wake Xu Shou up, but remembering that Xu Shou was still very weak, she tidied up her face and pushed open the courtyard door.

Outside the door was Jin Wuwei, the person who came to visit Xu Shou with Ding Sen at that time.

"Uncle, what are you?" Xu asked with some curiosity.

The Jin Wuwei's face was full of panic, and there was a layer of sweat on his forehead, and he had galloped all the way when he came.

Jin Wuwei said anxiously: "Sister-in-law, where is Brother Xu?" ”

Xu was puzzled in his heart and said, "Your brother Xu is still lying on the bed......

"Wake him up, something has happened to Dinson!" Jin Wuwei said.

Ding Sen caught a group of splashes such as Flower Arm in Jin Wuwei's prison yesterday, and continued to do things, but he didn't expect that it didn't take long for the group of splashes to be released.

Ding Sen was scolded by the Zuojie envoy and was reminded of it, and then he remembered whose subordinates the Tai Sui Gang was.

This god capital is prosperous on the surface, but in the dark, there are still many rats in the gutter. Originally, when the ghost town of Fengdu existed, these rats were attached to powerful backers. However, after the destruction of the ghost city of Fengdu, they also scattered with the tree.

There are many gangs in Shendu, and they are composed of a group of punks who do shady business on weekdays.

The former dynasty of Shendu Mansion was called Jingzhao Mansion, and in the roster of the official mansion, there were not less than a hundred gangs in the entire Shendu, of course, this is only on the surface. Secretly, I don't know how many undercurrents are surging.

The Tai Sui Gang is entrenched in Lirenfang, and many places here are secretly controlled by the Tai Sui Gang.

Many Jin Wuwei were greeted in advance, and they tried to save face when they saw the Tai Sui Gang. However, Ding Sen was very unimpressed with such a person in the rivers and lakes, so he didn't think of the name of the Tai Sui Gang for the first time.

He's in trouble.

The backstage of the Tai Sui Gang is the Tibetan Spring Pavilion in Nanshi, and this Tibetan Spring Pavilion is the property of Li Wancheng, the right minister of Wenchang Stage.

These people are actually doing things for the Li Mansion.

On that day, the flower arm and his party teased the Xu family is small, and they had to wait until the dark night to hand over a business here. This business involves the Tibetan Spring Pavilion.

But they were imprisoned by Jin Wuwei.

Even if Ding Sen had a million reasons, the Right Prime Minister's Office was still held accountable, and Ding Sen was slandered as an abuse of power, and he has been withdrawn from his position as the head of the Jin Wuwei team and temporarily imprisoned.

As for Jin Wuweizhong, no one asked what was going on. After all, Li Wancheng is a senior member of the DPRK and the Central Committee, and for such a big man, they are just an ant.

After Xu Shou listened, his eyes were stunned, and he said in a muffled voice: "I know." ”

Jin Wuwei said anxiously: "Brother Xu, you have to find a way." ”

Xu Shou shook his head: "Ding Sen offended the right minister of Wenchang Pavilion, you don't want to be too troublesome, no one can help Ding Sen in this matter, you can only look at the decisions of those big people." ”

Jin Wuwei sighed and slammed his fist on the table: "Ding Sen didn't do anything wrong at all, those few people are going to do bad to their sisters-in-law, and it's light to send them to the border!" ”

Jin Wuwei glanced at Xu Shoumune's expression and sighed: "Brother Xu, you better take care of your injuries." This matter is handled by the brothers. ”

After Jin Wuwei left, only Xu Shou was left in the whole house.

Xu's face was worried: "Husband, will something happen to Ding Sen?" ”

Xu Shou said: "Even if you know, what can we do, can we still change the decisions of the big guys?" ”

Xu hesitated, but still didn't speak.

Xu Shou was right, they were just junior officers who were the leaders of the group. In Shendu City, they are characters who can be easily crushed to death.

……

It's another dark day.

Xu Shou got up and stretched out the hand that had been hidden in his sleeve.

There was a scar on his hand, shocking, but it had scabbed. His eyes were red, and he still followed the familiar path and walked out of the house.

Xu Shou didn't alarm anyone, he deftly dodged the Wuhou who patrolled the night one by one.

There is a courtyard with some lights, and there are many wooden boxes set up on the outside to cover the scene inside. It was late at night, but there was still a faint sound of laughter.

There was a group of people gambling, and the dice were rolling rapidly on the table under the lights, and the people around them were watching in unison.

This is a casino, the kind of casino that doesn't see the light.

There are a few big men outside the door, guarding them with maces and knives, and no one is rushing here to make trouble.

Xu Shou turned around from the alleyway, and several big men glanced at him, and then ignored it.

Like him, many people come here late at night to gamble. Most of the surrounding areas are shops and unoccupied houses, so the noise here is not heard.

At a gaming table, Hua Arm and others were bragging about their experience of coming out of Kim Wuwei prison.

"What are those Jin Wuwei's dogs, when they saw grandpa's waist card, they didn't want to let me out obediently!" Flower Arm laughed.

The people around were amazed, and many laughed in accommodation.

Xu Shou walked up to Hua's arm and pressed the still spinning dice on the table with his hand.

"What are you going to do?" Flower arms glared.

Xu Shou's face did not change, he suddenly exerted his strength and overturned the table directly.
