In a manor near mountains and rivers in Weinan, as the sky gets dark, the villagers end their day's work and go back to rest.

Soon, the manor was shrouded in a quiet night, except for the flickering lights of a few houses in the depths of the manor, and the occasional faint of profligate laughter.

There were more than a dozen saber guards standing outside the small courtyard, and when they heard the frolicking sound coming from the house, one of the guards couldn't help but whisper in a muffled voice: "The lord obviously told him to be careful when he enters and exits in the near future, but Ah Lang still has to come out to play, and he is still a *** woman, and he is still the lord and the lord's henchman, is this inappropriate?" ”

"Keep your duty for the slave, don't judge the master!"

When a guard commander heard this, he frowned and snorted coldly, but then there was a louder sound of laughter in the room, and the captain also laughed and scolded in a low voice: "Maybe the governor of the guard is also happy to have a deep relationship with the master......

When all the guards heard this, they all chuckled knowingly, and some couldn't help but glance at a row of dimly lit low houses not far from the manor, where some village weavers were weaving overnight.

The obscene sound in the room became more and more intense, and finally some people couldn't bear it anymore and quietly left the place, and when the others saw this, they all followed suit one after another, and soon the sound in the weaving room became noisy.

In the end, only the soldier commander and a veteran were still doing their duty outside the small courtyard, and the soldier commander hesitated, but finally he couldn't hold back, and whispered to the old soldier: "If Ah Lang has a summons, call it out loud." ”

After saying this, the commander strode away.

After another moment, the old soldier heard a murmur of rustling from the left, raised his hand to press his knife and shouted, "What man! ”

"Don't be surprised, don't be surprised, the owner of the village knows that the guards are hard, so he sent slaves to add food to the military master......"

In the night, two slenders carried a wooden barrel and approached cautiously.

The old soldier let his guard down when he smelled the smell of the steaming food, stepped forward and lowered his head to inspect the food, and said with a smile: "Zhuang Nu is also interesting." ”

"May I ask the military master, what about the other guards?"

The two villagers looked left and right, and when they didn't see the other guards, they asked in a low voice.

"They......"

As soon as the veteran spoke, he felt a tremor in his lower back, and then his mouth and nose were covered by a rough hand, and his waist and abdomen pierced by the sharp knife subconsciously straightened up, and he fell to the ground with convulsions, and was silent.

After killing the veteran, the two Zhuang Ke no longer stumbled, and rushed into the courtyard with vigorous steps, one of them knocked on the door and shouted: "Ah Lang, the lord has an urgent matter!" ”

The sound of the waves in the room stopped abruptly, and soon a disheveled maidservant opened the door, and before she could open her mouth, her throat was choked by a large hand, and the blade of the knife was lifted straight to the heart, and she lay limp on the ground.

"What's the matter?"

Behind the screen, Zhao Yongguo's impatient inquiry sounded, and the assassin disguised as Zhuang stepped inside, and the vicious wolf pounced on Zhao Yongguo, who was still arranging his clothes on the couch, until he was covered with his head, and the blade of the other hand flipped and nailed the charming woman on the other side, who was also disheveled, to the bed board.

When another assassin walked in with a rope, Zhao Yongguo, who was covered in the quilt, let out a muffled roar, and the two quickly tied him up and moved out of the room one by one.

The two of them in the courtyard stood still for a moment, and the soldiers of the Zhao family who heard the waves elsewhere were still unaware, and then they quickly ran towards the back of the village along the dark place in the corner.

There were already several people waiting outside the manor fence, watching the two of them rushing towards Zhao Yongguo with Zhao Yongguo, and hurriedly drew their knives to break a gap in the fence wall, converged into one place, and then went to the distant mountain pass.

There were also companions in the col who were ready to ride to meet them, and when they came here, they mounted their horses and ran away in the night.

In another valley, Li Tai was already asleep in the tent, when he suddenly heard the shout of Yuwen Hu outside the tent: "Boshan, wake up quickly, and lead you to a good show!" ”

When Li Tai heard this, he hurriedly put on his clothes, and Yuwen Hu pulled him up the hill with an excited face.

When the two came to a pine tree on the slope, Li Tai saw several people standing there with torches, surrounded by a man who was tied up with five flowers and covered his face with a thick cloth.

"What kind of thieves are you? Why did you arrest me? I, Ye Naizhang Wu Gong Zhao Kaifu, will give you everything you want, but if you hurt me, you will not survive! ”

Hearing the man's shout, Li Tai knew why Yuwen Hu was mysterious, and pulled Yu Wen Hu to make a gesture of cutting off his head, Yu Wen Hu shook his head, took a hardwood staff from his subordinates, stepped forward and picked up the wooden staff and smashed it on Zhao Yongguo's leg.

"Ah...... Hiss, spare your life, spare your life......"

Zhao Yongguo received this rod, and his body suddenly bowed like a shrimp, and he let out a miserable scream that was not like a human voice.

Yuwen Hu beckoned to Li Tai again, motioned for him to step forward, and handed him the wooden staff in his hand.

Li Tai didn't tell Yuwen Hu about Zhao Yongguo's assassination of him, and Yu Wen Hu obviously didn't do this to help him avenge him. But since everyone is a companion, of course, they must be embarrassed, and no one can be left alone.

Thinking of his previous tragic situation, Li Tai naturally would not be polite, took the wooden cane and picked it up and smashed it, and when the cane fell, Zhao Yongguo's leg was suddenly broken and deformed.

The guy bounced off the ground for several feet in pain, screamed miserably, and then fell silent. Li Tai was about to put another cane on his skull, but was held down by Yuwen Go.

"It's just that I'm fainting from pain, and it's not time to kill him. This kid insulted his wife and daughter this night, and Zhao Gui was not easy to be scrutinized by the officials, and abolishing his son was also considered to be a vent of hatred. ”

Yuwen Hu bent down to check the state of the kid, motioned for the tribune to throw it on a conspicuous stone on the hillside, and then smiled at Li Tai: "Hurry up, hurry up." You can't be caught on the spot! ”

Of course, Li Tai also understood that when they returned to the slope together, quickly packed up their bags and cleaned up their traces, the group ran west overnight, arrived at the outskirts of Chang'an at dawn, made up for sleep in the manor outside the city, crossed Weishui from the ferry at noon, and went to Huazhou along the Weibei road.

In the manor of Weinan, it was also quickly discovered that there was a change, seeing the death of men and women in the manor, and the young master of his own family disappeared again, the captain of the guard who had just vented only felt that his legs were as soft as noodles, and he could only stand with a wooden stick in both hands.

"Quick, find it, all the Zhuang slaves spread out and look for it! If you don't see Ah Lang, you will be buried with all the cheap slaves in the village! ”

Hearing the trembling and frightened shouts of the commander, the villagers were also frightened into a cold sweat for a while, and the men and women were all alarmed, holding torches around the manor, and searched carefully towards the four fields.

Finally, at dawn, the villagers, who were already sweating profusely, found Zhao Yongguo, who was still unclothed, on the hillside more than ten miles away. At this moment, Zhao Yongguo was still fainting, one leg was twisted, and the fracture was swollen and purple, which made people feel shocking when they looked at it.

Soon, the guards also rode their horses here, and they were busy ordering people to carefully carry Zhao Yongguo to the rope bed.

With this move, Zhao Yongguo suddenly woke up in pain, and subconsciously shouted for help, and after seeing that he was surrounded by his own tribe Zhuang Ding, tears of humiliation and pain came out of his eyes, and he scolded: "Thief slave, thief slave!" You all deserve to die, you all have to die...... So many people can't prevent the villains from harming me! ”

Hearing Zhao Yongguo's scolding, although hoarse and poignant, it was also full of vicious anger, the guard commander first breathed a sigh of relief, but then turned to worry on his face.

At this time, a soldier stepped forward and whispered, "Team leader, do you want to ......" His eyes flashed with danger, and he raised his hand to make a killing gesture.

When the soldier commander saw this, he was startled at first, and after a while, his eyes turned to profoundness, and he glanced at Zhao Yongguo, who was still lying on the rope bed and scolding, and then looked at the Zhuang people who were close to him, and suddenly drew his knife in his hand, and stabbed the soldier who had been suggested recently.

He cut off the ring of the head of the dead soldier, and walked to Zhao Yongguo, who was already stunned, and knelt down with a bang: "Ah Lang, slaves are waiting for the death penalty!" It was this dog thief who colluded with the villains to make us unguarded and cause Ah Lang to be robbed...... The thieves are hidden in the village, there must be a village slave to protect them, there is still a danger that has not been eliminated, the slaves must also protect Ah Lang, and notify the lord to lead the department to rescue! ”

Zhao Yongguo was already a frightened bird at this time, and when he heard this, he immediately became nervous, and grabbed the wrist of the soldier commander: "You have to protect me, kill, kill all those traitors who hurt me...... Hurry up and inform me that Aya is here to help! ”

Zhao Gui's garrison was not far from Weinan, and after getting the news, he quickly came here, took a look at his seriously injured and sleeping son, and suddenly his heart ached and he was short of breath, and ordered the house slaves to go to Chang'an to seek treatment from famous doctors, while collecting some people and horses, and taking this manor as the center, sweeping away the bandits and homeless people who were wandering around the left and near.

Of course, he could guess that it wasn't these bandits who did it, and if these people really had the guts, they would never spare his son's life. Most likely, some political opponents are doing the harm.

After sweeping up, he didn't get any valuable news from the mouths of these bandits and wanderers, so he led the crowd straight to the Jingzhao County Government, looked at Jingzhao Yin Cui and said sharply: "The details of the transfer of martial artists in the county, Cui will give me a detailed inspection!" If I can't find the murderer who harmed my son, the county will also apologize for the crime! ”

"The county should be sued and pursued, and it is also within its duty. But it also needs Zhang Wugong to send the bitter master here, and ask the beginning and end in detail, so as to know where to trace. ”

Zhao Gui has been tossing and turning in the countryside of Weinan for the past few days, and Cui Ji, as the county magistrate, of course also knows about the attack on his son.

"My son is too injured to move. Cui asked knowingly whether he intended to shield the murderer! ”

When Zhao Gui heard this, his expression suddenly became even more ugly.

After hearing this, Cui Ji clapped his eyes: "Zhang Wu's public feelings are pitiful, but please don't slander people!" The county government has its own charter, and the monarch has delegated power, and he does not dare to be wronged. If the public has any objections, it can be played in the imperial court, but this party is not a place for idlers to roar and filial piety! ”

"The dog thief despises me?"

Zhao Gui drew his knife in the hall and shouted angrily.

Cui Ji is not just a simple government bureaucrat, but also has the courage to kill the enemy, glaring and shouting: "Cui is not a weapon, but he can defend this ruler for the country." Those who make troubles are self-conscious, and they are no one else! The public is strong, a certain self-loyalty, up and down, not you and me! ”

At this time, the people of the government also gathered around when they heard the sound.

Seeing that more and more people were gathering inside and outside the hall, Zhao Gui didn't dare to openly attack the county government officials after all, slowly withdrew his saber, and stared at Cui Ji with hatred, so he walked out with his head held high.
