Lifting the sword into the rivers and lakes Chapter 113 - Separate Ways

"Lord Zhang, I, Hu Hu, am not a person who does not repay my kindness, these years, silver, I have not been short of you." Seeing Zhang Siwei's unquestionable appearance, Hu Hu knew that there was no room for reversal, so he immediately put away his flattering appearance.

Zhang Siwei heard the threat in Hu Hu's words, and sneered: "Oh? Do you have witnesses, or do you have physical evidence against us? ”

"In the summer of the thirteenth year of Qi Yun, the mighty dart bureau was robbed, and Lord Zhang got a thousand taels."

"In the summer of the thirteenth year of Qi Yun, he robbed the grain merchant on the road, and Lord Zhang got eight hundred taels."

"In the autumn of the thirteenth year of Qi Yun, the wealthy businessman was robbed, and Lord Zhang received 5,000 taels of gold and 10,000 taels of silver."

Gu Xiao hid aside, and when he heard this evil incident, he was dumbfounded, only to feel that the anger in his chest could not be suppressed, but he still suppressed his heart, and wanted to take action to end the desire of these two people's lives, because Gu Xiao knew that the time had not come at this moment, so he held back his anger and continued to listen.

"Lord Zhang, do you need me to remind you again?" Even if he tore his face, Hu Hu was no longer polite to Zhang Siwei. As soon as the words fell, I caught a glimpse of Zhang Siwei's face turning iron-blue, and his hand slowly stretched out to the saber on his waist.

"What? Does Master Zhang still want to do it? Hu Hu sneered and looked at Zhang Siwei, and continued to speak: "If you do it, I'm afraid that Lord Zhang is not an opponent, but even if Siwei takes my life tonight." I'm afraid that the next day, the news of Lord Zhang's acceptance of the silver will reach the ears of the Metropolitan Protector Si Cheng. ”

When Zhang Siwei heard this, he thought about it again and again, and the hand that stretched out the long knife at his waist eased, and then, Zhang Siwei's slightly angry voice and Hu Hu's slightly smug answer entered the ears of Gu Xiao, who was eavesdropping in the cell next door.

"What do you want."

"Since Lord Siwei said, I won't be entangled in the next place, let me have three days to clean up everything in Lingzhou, I will leave by myself, and I will never leave trouble for my lord."

After a period of silence, Gu Xiao heard Zhang Siwei reply in a deep voice: "Okay, just three days, three days later, I will take someone to raid the tiger and leopard dart board." ”

"This person's corpse..."Hu Hu pointed to Liu Yi's corpse on the ground, after all, this is the person his younger brother entrusted him to find in Lingzhou, and now Lingzhou City can't stay anymore, so he can only go to Shanxi Que Peak and fall into the grass with his younger brother.

But after all, this person was entrusted to his younger brother by the people on the mountain, even if his death was pushed on Zhang Siwei, if he could take the corpse away, he would be able to shirk the responsibility.

"These people, don't bother with the dart, this guard will dispose of his corpse, of course, and those people in your dart game, you have to give me an excuse, right?" Zhang Siwei is not stupid, he gave Hu Hu three days, just using the lives of these people to block the mouth of the mysterious adult.

Gu Xiao listened attentively for a long time, and when he heard the footsteps of Hu Hu and Zhang Siwei leaving, Gu Xiao hurriedly dodged into the next cell to check Liu Yi's corpse, and saw that the blood flowing from his mouth and nose had already shown dark red black blood, which was a symptom of strong poison.

Convinced that this evil Liu Gongzi was already dead and could not die anymore, Gu Xiao couldn't help but secretly say that this Zhang Siwei was vicious, and when Gu Xiao was checking the corpse, he heard the footsteps of the two coming towards the cell.

Gu Xiao hurriedly turned around and hid back in the cell where Shicai was hiding, and hid the general, and listened to the voice of Zhang Siwei next door instructing his cronies: "Hurry up, transport this person's body out of the city overnight, find a mass grave, and bury it." ”

Gu Xiao knew that there was no need to investigate further, and seeing that the two of them were engrossed in dealing with Liu Yi's corpse, he immediately got up and slipped out of the cell, heading towards the roof where Lin'er was hiding.

In the winter of the lunar month, Lin'er hid on the roof of the prison of the Metropolitan Protector, but fortunately she held the snow in her arms, so that she would not be shivering from the cold, and she also enjoyed the snow, and did not make any sound in Lin'er's arms. After waiting for about half an hour, he still didn't see Gu Xiao's figure, but he saw a person dressed as a guard in Shicai's cell, hurriedly walked out of the gate of the capital guard, and headed east.

"It's so late, and the Protector still has a case to investigate?" Lin'er thought suspiciously, and waited for tea again, but still didn't see Gu Xiao's figure, Lin'er couldn't help but be a little worried, and was about to get up to check, when she heard the sound of clothes beside her, and looked sideways, it was Gu Xiao who went to investigate.

"Well, what did you find?" Seeing Gu Xiao's solemn expression, Lin'er knew that things were not so simple.

"Do you still remember that day on the Lingzhou boundary monument, and on Brother Shen's small building peak, the person standing next to the ruler thousand blades?" Gu Xiao asked.

"Of course I remember, what's wrong." Lin'er was of course impressed by the leopard who rolled down the hillside to persuade him to fight.

"If I'm not mistaken, the head of the tiger and leopard dart bureau has a lot to do with the mountain bandit leader surnamed Hu, and these two people have been colluding with Zhang Siwei all year round." Gu Xiao said in a low voice.

"Indeed, this is what you and I expected." Lin'er was not surprised to hear the news. And what Gu Xiao said then surprised Lin'er.

"I don't know what the identity of the big man in the restaurant is, after that Zhang Siwei talked with the big man's guard, he poisoned Liu Yi to death in prison." Gu Xiao frowned and pondered.

"You mean Liu Yi is dead?" Lin'er was surprised.

"Yes, we don't need to track down the Tiger and Leopard Dart Bureau anymore, we should go and inform Brother Tianya of the news of Lingzhou at the moment, I'm afraid that when the interception is killed, there will be more artificial help from the Tiger and Leopard Dart Bureau, and Brother Tianya will suffer." Gu Xiao thought that Zhang Siwei asked Hu Hu to go to the mountain, and instantly thought that once Hu Hu and the people from Hutou Village converged, on the day of interception, even if they were a defection, the gap in numbers was too big, and they would not be able to take advantage.

Lin'er hurriedly said: "Even if we have to notify Brother Tianya, but now that the city gate is closed, how can we get out of the city?" ”

Gu Xiao thought for a while, had a way, and immediately said in a low voice: "When I eavesdropped in the prison again, I heard that Zhang Siwei gave the Haw Par Dart Bureau a passage document to go out of the city, and before he went far, we caught up and went out of the city. ”

Lin'er thought for a while and replied, "At the moment, this is the only way to do it. ”

Gu Xiao asked again, "Have you ever seen a capital guard leave in a hurry from the cell I went to investigate?" ”

Lin'er instantly remembered the Duhu Siwei who had left the gate of the Duhu Si to the east, and immediately spoke: "There is indeed one person, heading east." ”

"It's him, let's chase after him."

The two agreed to secretly leave the roof of the Metropolitan Protector's prison, take advantage of the night, follow the way to sneak, jump out of the courtyard wall of the Metropolitan Protector, and see that the guard on duty in front of the door did not notice, and immediately chased eastward.

After about a stick of incense, Gu Xiao and Lin'er finally found a person wearing the costume of the capital guard, and the person walked towards the city, walking quickly, while constantly looking back.

In Lingzhou City, although there was no curfew at night, there were not many pedestrians on the street, seeing this person kept looking back, Gu Xiao hurriedly pulled Lin'er to hide behind a shop on the street.

The man looked behind him, but he didn't notice anything abnormal, so he continued to hurry, and when Gu Xiao was about to continue tracking, he heard Lin'er whisper: "Gu Xiao, someone has been following us." ”

Following Lin'er's eyes moved back slightly, he saw a figure looming on the corner of the street, if it weren't for Lin'er's ability to track, he wouldn't have found it.

The brain was spinning rapidly, Gu Xiao ruled out the possibility that he was discovered by the Du Hu Division, if his whereabouts were exposed when he was probing, the Du Hu Division would have taken him down a long time ago, but it was not the Du Hu Division, who would it be.

Seeing that Hu Hu was getting farther and farther away, Gu Xiao didn't have a good way to deal with the person who was following him for a while.

Seeing this, Lin'er said, "I'll drag this person down, you go chase the person and get the paperwork from the peers." With that, just turn around.

Gu Xiao didn't think of this method, but he didn't know the details of the person who was stalking, where could he rest assured that Lin'er would go alone, seeing that Lin'er was about to drag the person who was tracking, he was anxious, and reached out to hold Lin'er and said: "It's too risky, I don't know the details of that person, if there is a difference, what do you call me." ”

Seeing that Lin'er's pretty face was flushed, Gu Xiao realized that it was Lin'er's slender hand that he was holding in a hurry.

The girl was held by Gu Xiao's hand, only to feel that Gu Xiao's palm was warm and dry, as if the weather was not so cold, but the girl was ashamed but never broke free of Gu Xiao's palm.

On the contrary, Gu Xiao felt that he had lost his manners, and hurriedly withdrew his hand and said, "I, I'm not, I just think it's too dangerous for you to go alone." ”

Seeing Gu Xiao's timid appearance when facing him and the young knight who was one against two in the night in Liuzhuang and Yuelai Building, Lin'er felt angry and funny, withdrew his hand, and said: "Don't worry, I won't fight him, I just pretend that I have no intention of dragging him, so that you can do it, don't forget that I still have Trace Pill with me." Even the old man surnamed Fei of the Robot Realm couldn't do anything with this Lost Trace Pill. ”

Gu Xiao thought about it, and also felt that this method was only feasible at the moment, and when he saw that the person had walked to the corner of the street, he didn't have time to think about it, so he stretched out his hand to Lin'er and said, "Take it." ”

Lin'er was puzzled: "What do you want?" ”

"Mandarin Duck Pei, give me half of it, I took the documents out of the city, and I came to look for you." Gu Xiao said.

With a smile, Lin'er took off the exquisite mandarin duck pendant on her waist, separated one of them, and handed half of it to Gu Xiao, and then the two nodded to each other, and then they went out separately at the same time, Gu Xiao walked towards the person's trace, and Lin'er turned around and walked towards the figure on the corner.

The figure on the corner of the street saw the two suddenly move separately, the young man walked towards the corner, and the girl came towards her hidden figure, this person obviously did not expect, just dodged out, wanted to chase the young man, but was hit by the girl who came quickly.

"Ouch." Lin'er fell to the side, and the snow in her arms jumped to the ground, her milky white hair stood up, and she made a threatening sound of 'sizzling' at the figure that knocked over Lin'er.

The man caught a glimpse of the girl being knocked to the ground by himself, and knew that it was the young man's plan, and he didn't intend to entangle with the girl, so he was about to chase after Gu Xiao.

At this moment, Lin'er saw clearly that the person who was following Gu Xiao and herself was actually the young guard of the big man who helped Gu Xiao get out of trouble during the day.

Seeing that this person seemed to have no malicious intent, Lin'er quietly retracted the short blade in her sleeve into the sheath, and with a turn of her apricot eyes, she came up with a way to delay.

"You, who knocked over others, don't apologize, but want to run, is there any reason." The girl actually scolded this person on the ground, maybe she had been walking with Gu Xiao for a long time, and Lin'er also pulled away the 'monkey spirit' appearance and threw herself at the young guard.

This loud shout, although there are not many pedestrians on the road, but they are all attracted by Lin'er, Lin'er saw that the people were surrounding the general, more energetic, and even grabbed the young guard's clothes, pretending to be aggrieved, and said to the onlookers: "Everyone to the little woman to comment, this day is freezing, I was about to go home, this person knocked me over, and he didn't apologize, but he still had to go, let's talk about it, is there this reason." ”

After saying this, Lin'er felt that she was a little unreasonable, but it was easy to make trouble, otherwise she would be embarrassed, and her heart was longing, but Lin'er saw through the crowd that Gu Xiao had already caught up with the person, turned to the corner of the street, and put her mind at ease.

The onlookers saw that the girl was so pitiful, and they were moved with compassion, and everyone said a word to me, and opened their mouths to accuse the young guard.

Yan Bin is really a head and two big, and he was ordered by General Wan to follow this young man. Along the way, I saw that the two of them secretly probed the Lingzhou Metropolitan Protector, if it weren't for the duty of guarding General Wan, he would have taken the two of them right away.

Seeing that the two of them had been following one of the guards for a long time, Yan Bin's curiosity was also hooked by these two, but just as he was about to continue tracking, the girl bumped into him.

Seeing that the young man was no longer visible, Yan Bin had to sigh and turn around to help the girl.
