48. Be your brother-in-law

The three of them walked out of the cave, a small boat was parked by the water, they got on the boat and sat down, and Hou Jie picked up the oars and rowed. Brother Lian looked at him and suddenly found that from the time he knew him to the present, he only used two words to speak, and if it was four words, he would divide it into two words.

"Brother Hou, how many villagers have died?" she didn't believe it, how could she just say two words.

"I don't know. ”

"How many are still alive?"

"I don't count. ”

"Is Fan Tonghai dead?"

"Nope. ”

"Why didn't he die?" Brother Lian stared at Hou Jie, you have to say a few more words to explain.

"Bodyguard, protect. ”

Oh! I'll go! Brother Lian doesn't believe in this evil.

"Brother Hou, why didn't the killer chase us last night? How could so many people not kill all the people in the village?"

"Reinforcements. ”

"Reinforcements, where are the reinforcements?"

"Forbidden Army. ”

"Praetorian Guard?Zhao Qianyuan?"

"Hmm. ”

"Didn't Zhao Qianyuan leave? How many people did he bring with him?"

"I don't know. ”

Brother Lian was completely convinced, Ye Yanshan pursed his lips and laughed secretly, how many people wanted him to say a few more words, which one was not a failure.

He tried to press him with power once to make him talk more, but his face turned red, and he pulled out his sword and put it around his neck, meaning to talk more than die. Frightened, he hurriedly reassured him and let him go home and take ten days of annual leave, plus pay him an extra month's salary.

He can't help this kind of tough guy.

The three of them went ashore, and on the way into the village, they were bloodstained all the way, but they did not see a single corpse. Rushing to the Fan family's old house, there were wounded inside and out, and the Praetorian Guards were interspersed and walked in the middle.

Walking further inside, I saw Guan Tongsheng and Zhao Qianyuan sitting next to Fan Tonghai.

Fan Tonghai drooped his head, and the whole person was not lost, but there was a resentment in sadness, and unwillingness in despair.

It was because of him that he wanted to bring wealth to the people in the village, but he didn't want to be separated by a thin layer of rice paper between wealth and death. Last night's killing was entirely for his life, and if it weren't for these Praetorian Guards, the blacksmith village would be a dead village by now.

He knew very well who was behind the scenes. After nearly ten years of followers, I have tried my best to contribute money and efforts, but I have been abandoned like a cover, and when danger comes, I will give up! Is the life of my blacksmith village so low?

When Guan Tongsheng saw Ye Yanshan, he immediately stepped forward, "Brother Ye, you're okay, great, what about Brother Lian?"

Ye Yanshan looked at the people around him, Guan Tongsheng saw that this person with tattered clothes, a sallow face, and a pair of black thick eyebrows was Lian Brother, he reached out to hug his shoulder, Ye Yanshan grabbed his arm, "His body is dirty, all dirt, adults are careful of official robes." ”

Guan Tong was stunned, and really didn't want to touch her again, but still said, "Are you okay? ”

Brother Lian bared his teeth and shouted at him: "I almost died, do you say there is anything wrong?"

“...... Oh. ”

"When you go back, you have to pay me the carriage and horse expenses, business trip expenses, fright expenses, and mental damage expenses, and if you lose the bet with Xiao Ye yesterday, you will also compensate me for my losses!"

Although her series of fees made others confused, Guan Tongsheng was a prodigy after all, and in the face of her complaints, he replied again and again: "Oh, oh, oh." Then he immediately asked her: "What is the mental loss fee?"

After Brother Lian lost his temper, he ignored his question and asked him, "Why did you run here?"

Guan Tongsheng stretched out his finger and pointed at Fan Tonghai, "His son was killed, and the report was reported to Jingzhao Mansion, and Lord Liang asked me to come over." I still wondered how Zhao Qianyuan could have made things like this, so I hurried over to take a look. ”

Zhao Qianyuan also paced over, and when he saw Brother Lian's disguise and messy hair, he couldn't help laughing.

Brother Lian glanced at him and asked, "How many people did you bring here?"

"Fifty. ”

"It's just a trivial matter, why do you bring so many people?"

"Guan Zhuangyuan found me and asked me to help, but I am now a person next to the emperor, how dare I go out of Beijing easily, but since everyone is doing things for the emperor and reporting to the emperor, it will not be wrong. The emperor said that I am a lieutenant marquis with fifty people, and of course I have to bring all the people and horses when I come out to do things, which is also an opportunity for the Praetorian Guard to train. ”

"So, you brought so many people to do things?"

"That's right, it took only two people to do things in the blacksmith village, and after finishing it, I went to Lincun to plan to do a training, but I didn't expect to see two teams of black-clothed people sneakily rushing here, so I followed. ”

"How many people have been killed, and how many people have been caught?"

"Killed more than eighty and captured twelve. ”

"What about the captors?"

"I committed suicide by poisoning. ”

"What about your people, are there any dead?"

"You underestimate me too much, the people brought out by me Zhao Qianyuan can be a bad seed! Let me tell you, there is not a single one who died, and more than a dozen of them were slightly injured. ”

Brother Lian couldn't help but give him a thumbs up, he lowered his voice and approached her and said, "It's really a shame for the nerd to ask me for help this time, go back, I'll have a treat, Xunyunxuan, let's relax." ”

Brother Lian looked at Zhao Qianyuan's complacent appearance, and made him make a great contribution by mistake, no wonder he was so happy. But did the emperor really ask him to bring fifty people to do a small thing on a whim? What does the fifty Praetorian Guards mean by defeating a hundred professional killers and winning more with less?

She turned her head to look at the Praetorian Guards shuttling among the injured villagers, their posture, spirit, and demeanor, and then at the tanned hands and faces.

She secretly praised herself, but fortunately she stood on the side of the emperor, which was really a wise decision. She smiled, "The hidden dragon is going to turn over." ”

Guan Tongsheng asked, "What did you say?"

"It's nothing, Zhao Zhonghou, don't regret what you said. ”

"Am I the shameless villain who speaks the vernacular? Besides, you're going to be my brother-in-law, and I dare to lie to you if I lie to others?"

Several people were talking and laughing happily, and suddenly heard Fan Tonghai's screams like killing pigs, and everyone looked back, but it was the sleeping god who was riding on him and beating him with his fists.

While beating and scolding: "You bastard, Lao Tzu is here to kill you, last night I asked Lao Tzu to save your life, bastard, live well, anyway, your son has already died, and it is also regarded as revenge for Lao Tzu, and it also makes you taste the taste of losing your relatives There is fucking bitterness." ”

There are bodyguards next to him who stepped forward to pull him, but last night's battle was very tragic, almost all of them were injured, and the people who pulled were all wrapped in their heads and legs, although the sleeping god was also injured last night, but now a wave of anger is supported, more powerful than others, and the person who pulled him was lifted by him, and he was unable to step forward again.

Fan Tonghai was beaten by him and screamed, but the sleeping god did not kill him, only picked up Fan Tonghai's face and beat him, thinking that he wanted to make Master Fan lose face in front of others and remember the lesson.

Hou Jie went over and tore away the sleeping god, "Enough!"

The god of sleep was pulled aside by Hou Jie, still looking at Fan Tonghai and smiling, and said to Fan Tonghai: "You remember, it's best to find bodyguards to follow you in this life, I will come to you at any time." After speaking, he glanced at Hou Jie coldly, lame, left the Fan family's old house, and walked away.

Zhao Qianyuan said: "What kind of bodyguards are you invited here? ”

Fan Tonghai got up with a sigh, Guan Tongsheng went over and said: "Master Fan, how many people have you offended, it's not enough to ask twenty bodyguards to follow you every day, just now I told Zhao Zhonghou, keep you safe, as long as you say what you know, your whole family's life, Zhao Zhonghou will be responsible." ”

Zhao Qianyuan also walked over, and the two of them sandwiched him left and right and began to persuade.

Brother Lian looked at the back of the god of sleep and thought that the god of sleep had a personal enmity with Fan Tonghai, and now he made it clear. Wang Shizhu is an undercover agent sent by the prime minister, who came to catch the copper coin hero, and now the task is not completed, the person ran first, and he and Ye Yanshan are also here for the copper coin hero, only Hou Jie is not sure, is he really here to be a bodyguard?

And last night's massacre? Could it be that we discovered our secret workshop in Chafan Tonghai? But where did the flaws come to light and were discovered by the people behind the scenes? After such a fuss last night, will the copper coin hero still do it?

Seeing her frowning, Ye Yanshan asked her, "What are you thinking?"

"I'm wondering if the copper coin hero will kill Fan Tonghai?"

"Fan Tonghai's son has died for him. ”

"Why are you so sure?"

"Young Master Fan died of three knives, and he learned his routines, and now he is a killer and a villager, and the trouble is much more than that of the copper coin hero. ”

Brother Lian nodded, "Yes, but you said that Zhang Mao has five knives, Jiang Zhi has four knives, and Young Master Fan has three knives!

"Since the copper coin hero is called a hero, he will not kill innocents indiscriminately, but these five, four, and three are lined up, and there may really be two and one. ”

"And who will be the next two?"

Ye Yanshan looked at Fan Tonghai, "He must know." ”

Brother Lian suddenly remembered that there was someone, she looked left and right and looked around, and then ran over to ask Hou Jie, "Have you ever seen Luo Jiaotou in the morning?" ”

Hou Jie shook his head: "No." ”

Brother Lian grabbed another member of the Fan family and asked, "Where is the head of the Luo sect?"

The man shook his head and said, "I didn't see it." ”

"Who's dealing with the bodies of the dead?"

"The village chief. ”

Brother Lian said to Ye Yanshan: "I'll go and ask, I still suspect that the head of the Luo Sect is a copper coin hero." ”

"I'll be with you. ”

The two asked all the way to the back mountain of Beacon Mountain, and saw that the village chief was directing a group of wounded people to dig a big pit, and dozens of corpses of black-clothed people next to them, although it was noon and the sun was shining, it still made people panic when they looked at it. Brother Lian went over and asked the village chief, "Did you see the head of the Luo sect who came with Master Fan yesterday?"

The village chief shook his head, pointed to the more than 30 new tombs next to him, and said sadly: "I don't know which Luo sect head you are talking about? ”

Brother Lian nodded and said, "The village chief mourns." ”

The two left the back mountain of Beacon Mountain, and they didn't even speak to their brother all the way, until they walked to the village, and when they saw the wounded again, they couldn't help but sigh: "The weapons in the cave are prepared for usurpation, and only the struggle for power will involve large-scale bloody massacres." Human life is only once for everyone, so why do some people despise the lives of others so much?"

Ye Yanshan looked at her, and didn't understand why she, a seventeen-year-old girl, had such a deep understanding, as if she had lived for dozens of years, he said: "Yes, life is very important, if you want your life not to be easily taken, you must stand higher than the other party, so that there is a struggle for power, and there will be bloody killings." Otherwise, people will be swordsmen, and I will be fish and meat, and I will be slaughtered by others. ”

"You're right, no one can escape the crush of the background of the times, and they only complain that they are in a turbulent period, and their lives are much more difficult than in peacetime. ”

Ye Yanshan looked at her dotingly, reached out to stroke her messy hair, and said, "Whether it is peacetime or wartime, you have enough wisdom to live in any period." ”

Brother Lian didn't slap his hand away, but laughed silently.

Ye Yanshan suddenly stopped silently, and when Brother Lian walked a few steps and saw that he didn't follow, he turned around and asked him, "What's wrong with you?"

Ye Yanshan smiled at her and said: "I have decided, I don't need to see the fifth lady of your family, if she looks the same as you, I will marry her and be your brother-in-law." ”

Brother Lian looked at him in surprise and said incredulously, "Really?"

"Seriously!"

She ...... The piano, chess, calligraphy and painting are only a little bit, the cooking skills are also poor, and the female celebrity is even more unsightly, sometimes the temper is still stinky, only the kung fu is better, is this okay?"

Ye Yanshan couldn't help but laugh and said, "As long as she doesn't beat me on a whim." ”

Brother Lian hurriedly shook his hand and said, "No, no, she is very reasonable, very reasonable, don't worry." ”

Ye Yanshan smiled and said, "So it's decided." ”

"Okay, it's decided. Brother Lian rarely showed a shy look, his head was slightly lowered, revealing the white and greasy skin behind his ears and slightly reddened.

Ye Yanshan glanced at it, his heart was fluttering, and he quickly looked away, he coughed lightly, took off a piece of peace buckle jade pendant from his neck, and said: "This is the peace buckle my mother gave me, I have been wearing it since I was a child, since you and I have decided on it, this jade pendant will be used as a token of love, and I will trouble you to transfer it to Miss Five." ”

This love token seems to be extremely precious, even the younger brother reached out to take it, and saw that it was a delicate and warm jadeite, which revealed a few traces of blood red, and a small emerald green solid color bead above the Ping An buckle, and the red string tied to the Ping An buckle was carefully woven with silk threads, and it looked like it was full of luxury.

She put the string around her neck, held the jade pendant tightly in the palm of her hand, and replied carefully: "Okay." ”

I didn't expect the family matter to be solved so quickly, although Ye Yanshan is not a handsome guy, but he also has good facial features, and the most important thing is that with him, he will definitely give her enough freedom, it doesn't make sense, she just believes it.
