Chapter 90: Over the Wall
When Ma Yuanyi swore an oath to Qingzhou Zhongqukui, a believer came in in a panic in front of the hall. As soon as he came in, he saw that all the Qukui were there, but he did not dare to enter, but only hesitated outside the hall.
Zhang Chong, who was still closest to the outside of the hall, saw it, and he called this person:
"What?"
The believer hesitantly glanced at Tang Zhou, the innermost, and seeing that he did not refuse, he snorted:
"Back to the canal, a team of county guards from outside the house is calling the door, saying that there is a wanted criminal in the house and is about to bang on the door."
As soon as these words came out, the whole hall was in an uproar.
Tang Zhou immediately stood up and reprimanded the believer:
"How can such a serious matter be patrolled outside the hall? It's been a long time since the door was called."
The believer's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground in fright, so speechless.
Zhang Chong sighed, got up and helped him up, then turned back to everyone and said:
"Old Tang, why don't you let everyone hide it. You and the bearded man are hosts, and you are familiar with these tigers and wolves, so it is better for you two to go and deal with them."
Everyone bowed their heads.
Tang Zhou's eyes flickered for a moment, then he nodded, and went to the mansion wall with the sacrificial grandson to deal with it.
Over there, Zhang Chong and others protected Ma Yuanyi and went around to the left chamber, where since they watched the situation on the front wall, they could turn over the wall of the house and enter the house next door. It is also a Taiping Road stronghold, which is to deal with this situation.
Outside the wall of the house over there, more than a dozen city gate officials were led by a strong team leader, and a few city gate officials were knocking on the door hard, seeing that no one responded for a long time, one of them ran to the head of the elite team and said:
"Chief, the people in there won't open the door at all, shall we crash in?"
As soon as the face of the elite team turned dark, he scolded:
"Bump? What are you doing? Can you find the striking wood here? Let's go find the ladder and go inside."
The doorman was scolded, smiled, and hurriedly ordered a few colleagues to find the ladder together.
The team leader scolded again:
"It's really a bother."
Then the man turned his head and said to one of the people beside him:
"Xiao Xue, this wave of brothers listened to you and pulled the team here, but don't shake your brother, otherwise these rough people will really be very angry."
The person next to him was Xue Zhou, the city gate official who was on duty in the original city tower, and he led the group of elite men to block this.
Today, he was unhappy when he saw Zhang Chong's ox cart swaggering through the city with an apricot yellow flag, but he saw that the ox cart river with an apricot yellow flag was constantly flowing into the city, so he felt strange and took leave to go home.
On the way, he followed one of the ox carts to the mansion, and then he saw more than a dozen people greeting outside the house, one of whom he knew, and there was a picture of this person in the county, and the large sarcoma in his neck was too eye-catching.
This person is the pirate wanted in Qingzhou.
There are more than 3,000 families and dozens of ships in this gentleman, and the coastal areas of Kouhai cannot be governed by counties and counties.
Xue Zhou resisted his excitement, and carefully observed the mansion, and saw that there was no back door, so he slowly withdrew, and then went straight to Gao Jin, the head of the south gate of Dongpingling.
As for why Xue Zhou didn't go to the county thief Cao, but went to the city gate chief who had no responsibility to ask for theft, it was naturally for greater merit.
If you look for the county thief Cao, he is at most a thief, and if he finds his chief to capture the thief together, then he Xue Zhou is a thief at least.
In this way, Xue Zhou found Gao Jin and told him that the Donglai Haikou Guan Cheng was in the city, and he didn't bring much followers, so he would give him credit on this day.
Gao Jin was overjoyed, and he was busy with the twenty city gate guards under his command, so he ran all the way with Xue Zhou, blocking Zhang Chong and the others here.
Xue Zhou is motivated, he Gao Jin is even more motivated than Xue Zhou, he is a local Gao clan.
Since the Western Zhou Dynasty, the Gao clan and the Guo clan have been the Qi clan. These two families were originally envoys sent by the king of Zhou to the state of Qi, and after sealing the land in Qi, they gradually spent their leaves in Qi.
But Xuanhe in the clan couldn't help him much Gao Jin, and the head of the city gate was also killed by himself with a knife and a shot, just because he was already the last in the clan.
Gao Jin's subordinates rushed over with three ladders, and then surrounded Gao Jin and listened to his orders.
Gao Jin gestured to the strong man on the side, this person was thick and majestic, lined up, and his voice was like a bell:
"Listen to the rats in the wall, there is a thief, open the wall quickly, those who abandon their weapons and surrender live, and those who resist die!"
This person is Gao Jin's brother Gao Yu, and these two brothers have helped each other since they were children, so they have come to this day.
At this time, there is no sound in the wall.
Gao Jin's face was solemn, and he waved his hand to let his commander get off the ladder, and then took the knife to climb first, stepped on the ladder, and stepped on the wall of the house in three or two steps. Over there, Gao Yu and Xue Zhou also followed.
But as soon as they crossed the wall, the three of them looked at each other, and saw a row of archers aimed at them below, and the three of them did not dare to move.
Tang Zhou smiled and said to the three Wu Ben who were straddling the wall of his house:
"The three of them are not invited, are they going to be thieves?"
Gao Yu over there was a fierce temperament, and he scolded:
"Thief, your mother, is a prince an official, and you still don't kneel down and surrender?"
And Gao Jin didn't speak over there, just because he recognized the two people below, who were the local Taiping Daokui Tang Zhou and the sacrificial grandson, who used to be the prime minister of Jinan, and these two were still guests in the temple.
Gao Jin secretly scolded Xue Zhou, and didn't even tell him that the pirate was actually hiding in their Taiping Dao House, but it was all over here, and he had to try his best to cheer up, and he said loudly to Tang Zhou and the sacrificial grandson below:
"Tang Daokui, Tang Dao Envoy, a certain family has to be investigated, Donglai Haikou Guan Cheng is here, the two of you will send him to me, I will be this person captured elsewhere, and you will never be involved."
When the priest heard this, he smiled and replied:
"Captain Gaomen, why don't you come down first, go to the house and say, and you can just see if the keeper is there."
When the three people on the wall heard this, their expressions changed, if they jumped down and were isolated, wouldn't it be a dead ball?
In the end, it was still Gao Jin, he gritted his teeth and jumped into the house first, and then the other two also jumped down.
Gao respectfully bowed:
"Can you open the wall and let my men come in with me?"
Tang Zhou sneered over there:
"Dreamed? Just the three of you will search for it, and if you find it, you will be taken away. But don't blame me for being a villain, if I don't find it, hum, then I'm going to sit down with Gao Gongcao."
When Gao Jin heard this, his expression changed, and he knew that something was wrong.
Because even if it was in the wall, he couldn't take it away. Once he entered the search and found it, with the attitude of the two opposites, his two brothers would definitely not be able to save their lives.
And if he goes in to search and doesn't find Guan Cheng, then the two will accuse him, and the future of his brothers will not be guaranteed.
But if he didn't go in and search, he was unwilling. He still understands Xue Zhou's personality, and knows that he won't make a joke about this, so Guan Cheng must have appeared here.
But then again, they ran all the way, so it is also possible that this management will be gone long ago. So Gao Jin is in a position to retreat at the moment, and he really doesn't know what to do.
Or the sacrificial grandson gave him a sentence, and the sacrificial grandson said:
"Captain Gaomen, you better take your brothers back. That's not here, don't mistake yourself."
In the end, the priest opened the door to the Gao brothers and Xue Zhou, but they didn't have the courage to search.
And over there, Zhang Chong and other Qu Shuai also escorted Ma Yuanyi out of the city.
When Zhang Chong and the others heard the momentum of the opposite side calling the door, they knew that these people would definitely come in, so they didn't hesitate to help Ma Yuanyi climb over the wall and send him all the way out of the city.
When Ma Yuanyi sat on the ox cart and said goodbye to Qingzhou Zhuqukui, Zhang Chong's heart was complicated.
