Volume 1 Zhendong Mansion Chapter 8 The White Clothes Shocked the Qunkou A ruse
However, just as the man was about to unlock the acupuncture path for one of them, a snow-white silver sword suddenly appeared and landed directly on the man's neck.
A man walked slowly from outside the door, dressed in white and wearing a bundle of hair on his head. He was forced back step by step. The snow-white silver sword was clenched in the left hand of the comer.
"Master Hou!!" Liu Yun was overjoyed when he saw the person coming, and he couldn't help shouting. And as soon as those people heard those two words, they immediately felt fear and sweated.
"The Marquis in White"
The men looked at the man who walked slowly into the house, dressed in white, with a dignified body and a dignified appearance. A pair of eyes shot cold stars, and the two curved eyebrows were like paint. The chest is broad, and it has the power of being invincible. The air is lofty, and he spits out the ambition of Lingyun. is like a demon lord in the sky, he is really a god of Tai Sui in the world.
The sturdy man in white in front of him made the hearts of the people in black rise to their throats.
"If you don't surrender yet, do you want to die?!" the man said slowly, although the words felt so weak, but the magic that filled them made the people in black quickly retreat, and cold sweat broke out.
"Do you really want to die?" Seeing that they were unwilling to lay down their weapons, the white-clothed Hou Liu Nanjiang's eyes became a little hideous, and there was a hint of impatience in his words.
After speaking, seeing that those people still refused to put down their blades, he looked at the man in black under the sword with indifferent eyes, and the man in black was stared at by him like this, and the long sword in his hand suddenly fell to the ground and fell to his knees.
"Uncle, don't kill them, is it useful for me to keep them?" At this moment, a young and immature voice sounded. All the people in black looked at it, and the brocade-clothed young man on the bed woke up at some point.
Moreover, he was sitting casually, looking at the white-clothed marquis! The people in black were even more frightened when they saw this, and they immediately reacted that this was completely a trap, and this young man did not take the harm of himself and others into account at all.
They knew that the young man must have fallen asleep before, but they were even more sure that the young man knew that he and the others would come to assassinate him, otherwise, he would not have looked so flat at this moment, without a trace of surprise, and he didn't even ask questions about himself and the others.
Thinking about it carefully, they all felt that this young man was also so terrifying, this courage, daring to put himself in danger; This self-confidence, not very convinced that he and others can't kill him, he will definitely not be in danger; These shocked them.
"Hmph, stinky boy, it looks like I should have made a late move and let you be slashed. So that you can restrain your arrogant character!" The white-clothed Hou snorted coldly, put away his long sword, and with a wave of his right hand, a man and a woman appeared behind him, staring at it, it was actually a boy and a girl, the boy was holding a scabbard, and the girl was holding a box.
"Twenty-one Kou of the Feng family, do you really want to die, can't you?" The white-clothed marquis then turned his head and glanced at the five people who had not been fixed, and the person in the lead was startled, and immediately knelt on the ground.
"Feng Ning, meet the Marquis in White!"
"Meet the Marquis in White!"
Seeing the leader bowing down, the rest of the people also lowered their swords and bowed down.
"Twenty-one Kou of the Feng family, you really have some backbone!" The white-clothed Hou Liu Nanjiang praised the five people, and then continued: "The Fengjia Village is gone, you people will follow that stinky boy in the future!"
"But..."Feng Ning was about to say something, but was interrupted by the white-clothed marquis: "Your employer is dead, you want to follow in his footsteps?"
"Don't dare!"
Twenty-one Kou has been walking the rivers and lakes for many years, and he is also an experienced person, which can be seen from the division of labor that assassinated Liu Chen before.
As the saying goes, the big husband can bend and stretch, and be loyal to the body, these are the survival tips that Twenty-one Kou has mastered. If the employer was still around, Twenty-One Kou would never have surrendered, but if the employer was gone, they would naturally not be holding on. This is one of the criteria for them to live in the world, and they know how to make appropriate trade-offs.
"Remember Ben Hou's words, all of you twenty-one Kou are now under the command of my Liu family, and we have already controlled your family!" Liu Nanjiang Yun said lightly, as if all this was under his control.
"Master Hou, did you direct and act everything that happened?" Feng Ning plucked up his courage and asked.
Other than that, none of them could understand what the hell was going on?
"Ben Hou acts, do I still need to report to you?!" the white-clothed marquis was slightly angry and scolded.
"Don't dare!"
Everyone clenched their fists and bent slightly.
"Okay, uncle, they will be under the command of our Zhendong Mansion in the future, but they will become my right-hand men. You can't be gentle with them, if you don't want to be gentle, you can go! With Uncle Yun here, it's enough!" Liu Chen didn't buy Liu Nanjiang's face at all, and said.
"Stinky boy, the whole family dares you to talk to me like this, you owe it to clean up, right?" Liu Nanjiang's eyes widened, and he looked at Liu Chen and shouted angrily.
"Master Hou, son, he..."
"You shut up for me! Liu Yun, you can't protect him, I'll ask you, and you!" Liu Nanjiang interrupted Liu Yun and scolded Twenty-One Kou and Liu Yun.
After speaking, Liu Nanjiang turned his head and left, and the boy and maid followed. With a wave of Liu Nanjiang's left hand, a faint sword aura came out, and the long sword returned to the scabbard held tightly in the boy's hand. The three of them walked away and disappeared into the dark inn.
"Alright, Uncle Yun. Close the door, I have something to say to them. Liu Chen turned his head to Liu Yun and said.
"Yes, Childe!" Liu Yun replied respectfully towards Liu Chen, and then went straight to close the door. And fourteen of the twenty-one Kou were all pointed at the acupoints and could not move, and the few people who were left without being pointed did not dare to do anything at all.
"By the way, let's unlock the acupuncture points for them!"
Liu Chen got up and sat down at the table, poured a cup of tea, and handed it to the masked Feng Ning.
"I have heard for a long time that there is a village on Pingzhou Road in the east of my town, and there are twenty-one Kou in it. Today, I finally see me!"
Feng Ning took the cup, and Liu Chen said a few words slowly. Then, calmly looking at Feng Ning, he pointed to the other side: "Sit." ”
"Childe is serious, my brother twenty-one is just a grass coward in the rivers and lakes. These compliments are just some friends in the rivers and lakes, giving us some face!" Feng Ning was a little flattered, but still sat down and postponed.
"I won't say much else, but I'll explain to you what happened today. As everyone knows, the empire has four major prefectures. Zhendong Mansion, Zhennan Mansion, Zhenxi Mansion, Zhenbei Mansion. And each of our four prefectures guards one side, each of which has one hundred and sixty-five official roads, and our task is to suppress the Jianghu sects, underworld forces, and corrupt officials who suppress, reprison, and oppress the people on each official road. Liu Chen explained, and Feng Ning and the others also listened to him quietly.
The four major mansions are the palaces set up by the imperial court in four directions, each guarding one side. In terms of level, it is similar to the inside of the East Factory. However, there are also differences, the four major mansions are shocking the rivers and lakes, and the masters in them are like clouds, cultivating masters by themselves, and also accommodating the masters of the rivers and lakes. At the same time, he also manages the various large and small official mansions under his command, collects intelligence, and each lord is a high-ranking official like a marquis.
The four mansions complement each other. However, there was also fierce competition between the provinces, and they often killed in private. This is the power of the founding emperor of Jiang State, the four governments have great power, but they are responsible to the central government. A year ago, Liu Chen entered the Zhendong Mansion to take up a post.
"This time, it was the order of the eldest lady of Zhenxi Mansion to ask one of his seven-rank mansions to find everyone, and then assassinate me. And it just so happened that the spies I planted in Zhenxi Mansion reported this matter, and I will do it!" Liu Chen drank a cup of tea, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: "When I was in Zhendong Mansion, I knew the reputation of Twenty-One Kou, and this time I happened to risk my life, just to bring you under my command." ”
"Childe, are you from Zhendong Mansion?" Feng Ning and the others heard Zhendong Mansion, and their faces became even more ugly.
Zhendong Mansion has issued a wanted warrant for Twenty-one Kou, although they are chivalrous and righteous, but the general rule is only people in the rivers and lakes, they have no legal qualifications, and they kill people everywhere, and they still touch the laws of Zhendong Mansion.
"Rest assured, the government has removed the arrest warrant for you. I just wait for you to go back and serve my men well and serve the court. Liu Chen smiled indifferently and explained.
Hearing this, everyone frowned. Looking at each other, it seems that they are not very willing.
"Then Master Hou?" Feng Ning tentatively wanted to ask about the Marquis in white clothes.
"He is not a person in the mansion, and his position of power is not acceptable to the Zhendong Mansion. Liu Chen shook his head and said embarrassedly: "I see that you are also reluctant, to be honest, I lack talents under my command." That's why I hope you can say yes. ”
"Rest assured, once you enter the mansion, your family members will be arranged in Zhendong City, and the security in Zhendong City is very safe. Your income will not be low, as long as you are willing to serve the country loyally!"
Feng Ning got up and clenched his fists, half-bent and said respectfully towards Liu Chen: "Don't hide it from the son, I and the others are all bent on serving the country, but unfortunately there is no way to serve the country! It's really my low skill before waiting, and since Childe personally invited him, he will definitely live up to Childe's high expectations. ”
"Okay, I'll wait for you, and tomorrow at noon, we'll leave for home." Tonight, you have a good rest at the inn. As for your family members, I will definitely let my subordinates send each other to Zhendong City safely, so that they can be resettled!" Liu Chen was overjoyed, stood up and smiled excitedly.
