Heavy snow is falling, and it is the end of the year......

The northern part of the Yan Kingdom was in chaos, and the places where the Cangshan army passed were like locusts crossing the border, burning, killing, looting, and wantonly causing chaos...... Hundreds of people were displaced and froze to death in the snowstorm.

On the tenth day of the Lunar New Year, a vanguard army of several hundred people of the imperial army arrived at Dayun Mansion, took over the city without much effort, and arrested a large number of people on the same day, and pushed them directly to the guillotine......

"Not for punishment, just for Liwei!"

At the entrance of the vegetable market, an old beggar who was hobbling was mixed in the crowd watching the excitement, looking at the guillotine, the "traitors" who were tied up one by one, and sighed in his heart.

Some of these beheaded people did hook up with the Cangshan Army, but more of them seemed to be just shop owners, martial arts warriors, and even coolies at the docks...... Eight poles can't fight with the Cangshan army......

However, the imperial army didn't even bother to think about the crime, as long as they were suspicious, or even looked at it wrong...... If you catch it, you will be beheaded!

All will be punished as rebels of the Cangshan Army!

Some people shouted hoarsely and unjustly, but no one paid attention......

The imperial army was murderous, cutting heads row after row, and the ghost head knife was curled up several times...... It seems that he wants to take a bad breath for the long-term defeat!

The onlookers were numb and did not have any sympathy for this scene...... Some people even took out melon seeds from their pockets and looked at them while snorting.

This is also one of the few entertainment moments for ordinary people......

Whenever someone's head fell to the ground and blood splashed, a cry rang out in the crowd:

"Good kill!"

"Well, these wicked people deserve ...... sin"

As for how good and how evil, almost no one cares, now that the imperial army is in power, of course the imperial army is good, and the people they kill are of course bad......

Jiang Ming, who was dressed as an old beggar, looked at it for a moment, then turned around and left.

Begging all the way through the streets and alleys, he finally looked tired and curled up in a leeward corner, warming up with a few of his peers......

This place just happens to be able to see the Shijia compound.

Since the Cangshan army crossed the border and fled to the north, the city fell into a short period of tranquility, and Jiang Ming took the opportunity to sneak in, disguised as people with different appearances every few days, and squatted in the dark to guard the Shi family......

"After a toss by the Cangshan Army, this Shi family can be regarded as a broken ......."

Jiang Ming half-squinted, since the news of the serious injury of the head of the Shi family came out, the door of the Shi family was closed, and no one knew what the situation was inside.

Jiang Ming guessed that the Shi family probably had the intention to slip away, but they didn't dare to ......

In the past few years since the rise of the Shi family, there have been countless enemies offended...... When the news of the defeat of the Cangshan army first came out, the Shi family sent a team of family members to sneak out of the city, wanting to leave a way back for the Shi family.

But as soon as the family members left the city, they were all killed by the mysterious people on the official road outside the city, and even the second-rate warriors who led the team were killed...... The number of masters who were not rich in the Shi family became even worse.

Since then, the Shi family no longer dared to move, so they could only curl up in the mansion, hoping to use the power of the first-class martial artist of the Shi family to deter Xiao Xiao...... Now the door is completely closed, not giving the outside world a chance to snoop.

"But that's just a slow death...... When the first-class masters of the imperial army arrived at the Great Cloud Mansion, the fate of the Shi family would only be worse! ”

Jiang Ming said to himself in his heart, the leader of the imperial army who entered the city was only a second-rate master, and he didn't dare to move the Shi family, but it would not be necessary to wait a few more days...... He expected that the Shi family would inevitably make some moves in the short term.

……

A few days later, late at night.

A group of beggars, with their lips purple, covered their bodies with a few torn animal skins, and shrunk together to sleep......

"Huh?" An old beggar's ears moved slightly, and he suddenly opened his eyes...... Looking into the distance and the stone mansion that was silent in the night.

He got up quietly, his figure swayed, climbed a large tree, and stood on the treetop and looked down......

In the dark night, a team of people and horses suddenly rushed out of the gate of the Shi family, and more than a dozen people rode fast horses along the street to the direction of the city gate......

Immediately after that, there is the second team, the third team...... Some people were speeding on foot, some were rushing in horse-drawn carriages, and they looked like they were running frantically for their lives, and in an instant they scattered in all directions.

And around the Shi family, there was a commotion all of a sudden, and one after another figures rushed out, following those Shi family horses.

Obviously, Jiang Ming is not the only one who is squatting in the Shi family......

"Finally can't help it, I want to scatter and flee for my life, and fight for a chance ......" Jiang Ming's eyes were calm, but he didn't move with those fleeing people.

With the urine nature of the Shi family, those people are estimated to be just disposable cannon fodder, with only a dozen teams of people, it is estimated that most of them will not be able to escape outside the city, and they will be wiped out, and the remaining chances of survival are not great.

"These are all pretenses, where the Shi family's descendants are, they must still be waiting for the opportunity or looking for a way out......"

"Huh?"

Jiang Ming's mind suddenly became a little restless, his heart moved, and he did not hesitate to trigger the super sense......

"There!"

In the state of super feeling, Jiang Ming seems to be one with heaven and earth...... His gaze was directly locked on a remote courtyard in the distance, which was hidden in the narrow alleys of the back streets, which was not at all inconspicuous.

"Could it be that there are people or things related to the Shi family there?" Jiang Ming's thoughts turned sharply.

Now his supersensory power has become more and more acute...... Not only can it be triggered twice a day, but even in normal times, he occasionally has a sense of something related to him.

And now Jiang Ming is most concerned about the Shi family......

His eyes moved slightly, and he withdrew without hesitation...... Flying towards the courtyard that was sensed in the supersensory.

……

A moment later, Jiang Ming hid behind a ridge and stared at the courtyard more than 100 meters away in front of him, revealing a look of astonishment.

"It's ......"

The moonlight shone on the white snow, reflecting the scene in the courtyard, and figures were creeping out of a dry well......

"Shi Junming, Shi Junwei, Shi Quantang...... And the head of the Shi family, Shi Jintai, seems to have really been injured a lot......"

Jiang Ming took the faces of these people into his eyes one by one, focused on the white-haired old man who was being supported a few times, and muttered to himself: "The Shi family has three generations, and they are all ...... It's all in one ......."

He couldn't help but look strange, and he didn't know if the Shi family was stupid or greedy, let the cannon fodder attract attention, and then all the descendants gathered together, dug tunnels and tried to escape collectively!

If it succeeds, everyone will be happy, and maybe they can make a comeback.

But if someone finds out, it will be annihilation......

"The human heart is not enough to swallow the elephant!" Jiang Ming whispered, but this is also in line with the Shi family's style of doing things, greedy and arrogant, but never knows how to choose......

"But if it weren't for the super sense, maybe they really escaped......"

"But since I've found out, I'll have to send you all on your way!"

Jiang Ming stared at this group of sneaky guys leaving the courtyard, and followed without hurry:

"This general ledger can finally be liquidated......"
