Chapter 49: Good Men Are Recompensed
198
Back in Baocheng, Long Zixi told everyone what he had heard.
Huoyun Qi Dao:
"Looking at this situation, Bacheng is really Yin Qiu who caught Brother Qin and the others, and his brother will accompany his brother at night."
Hua Dining Road:
"Exactly. Big brother will order a few good hands to go together. If it's really them, get them out! ”
Long Zixi shook his head:
"Although it is suspected that Yin Qiu arrested Brother Qin and the others, after all, I am not sure. The younger brother will first go to explore the truth. If Brother Qin and the others were really in Camel Dongzhuang, and then they wanted to save people, they would have to ask you for help. How is it? ”
Huo Yunqi and Hua Dining thought about it and felt justified, so they didn't insist anymore and said:
"That's fine, brother, be careful!"
Longzi West Road:
"The younger brother knows, the two elder brothers can rest assured."
The plan was decided, and in the evening, Long Zixi had dinner, changed into another set of clothes, rode on a horse, put on a long sword, and came to the camel Dongzhuang again.
Along the way, I thought in my heart: at this time, it is better to go in from the back of the village.
This is the fourth time that Long Zixi has come to Camel Dongzhuang, and he is more familiar.
After a while, he turned to the back of the village, hid his horse, and jumped lightly on the wall, as he had done last time, and looked inside.
This is the middle of the day.
But when I saw a large manor, there were many rooms with lights on.
Upon closer inspection, there are two houses that seem to be different from the others.
One place, on the right side of the center, is lit, and there are several figures at the door, and at a glance it is clear that they are guards.
Xindao: Could it be that this is where prisoners are held?
Looking at another place, in the middle of the courtyard, not far from that place, there is still a lobby that entertains guests during the day, but I see that the lights are brighter, and many people are heading there.
Long Zixi stabilized his mind, made up his mind, and saw that there was no one around, so he jumped lightly and jumped in the courtyard early.
Creeped to the back of the room on the right side of the center.
When he came to the back of the house, he saw that there was no guard, so he slipped under the back window and listened with bated breath.
Listen to only one person:
"Sir, what's wrong? Straight to the restless! ”
Then I heard the voice of a woman:
"Since the master has been sick, he seems to only recognize Steward Pei. When I left Steward Pei for a long time, it was like this. ”
He sighed as he spoke.
Long Zixi said in his heart: "What, Yin Jifu lives here?" ”
Thinking about it, he approached the window, licked it with his mouth, licked the window paper wet, and gently poked it with his fingertips, poking a small hole.
When I looked inside, I saw that there were four people in the room.
One is Yin Jifu, looking anxious, fidgeting, and still muttering:
"Hmph, I hurt her!".
The other is a man who looks like a subordinate, who is comforting Yin Jifu, although he is calling the master in his mouth, he is not very impatient.
Next to them stood two women in their forties, also dressed as subordinates.
Long Zixi thought to himself: It turns out that this is indeed Yin Jifu's next place.
remembered that Yin Jifu was snuggling up to Pei Zhen like a child that day, and knew that it must be this Yin Jifu who saw Pei Zhen was not there, and his heart was anxious.
I was looking at it and listening to the man:
"You two be careful to wait for the master, don't annoy him, and don't let him hurt yourself."
The two women said yes, and waited for Yin Jifu in front of them.
The man turned and walked towards the door.
Long Zixi turned to the side of the gable lightly at the moment, shadowed his figure, and watched secretly.
Seeing that the man had just come out of the door, he said to a few people at the door:
"If you go on like this, you won't be worried! Alas, but it is unthinkable. Let's go to the lobby, the congregation is about to begin. ”
One Humane:
"After months of running around, my brother is really tired. I hope the church will end sooner, and my brother just wants to get a good night's sleep. ”
Another humane:
"According to the rules, you have to try the first instance first, how can it end so early? Brother, bear with me. ”
That one way:
"Well, I don't know what the outcome will be."
This one way:
"What result? Naturally, nothing good will come of it. ”
With that, several people followed the man towards the lobby.
Long Zixi quietly followed.
As you walk, you think: Church? First trial? Outcome? I'm afraid it's not related to Brother Qin and others?

Seeing the three people enter the lobby from a distance, their hearts moved, and they still turned to the back of the house.
As he had just done, he lay down under the window, made a small hole in the window paper, and looked inside.
But he saw that the house was full of people.
Sitting in the center is Yin Qiu.
To the right of Yin Qiu, are Ji Gang, Yang Pu and Mu Wan.
On the left side of Yin Qiu, there are Deputy Chief Qi and a few men, who must be a few leaders under Yin Qiu.
Looking around, there were forty or fifty people sitting around, all of whom seemed to be the doormen of Camel Dongzhuang.
Long Zixi wondered in his heart: "They said that they would try a trial, why didn't they see the person being tried?" ”
I don't know if the people to be tried are Brother Qin.
didn't have time to think about it at the moment, and when he saw that Yin Qiu stood up, Chong Jigang and the others hugged their fists, and said loudly:
"Ladies and gentlemen. I'm going to delay your rest. The reason for holding this meeting overnight is that Lord Ben is going to leave for Beijing tomorrow, but this matter cannot but be stopped, and everyone has worked hard! ”
And they gave their hands away.
Yin Qiu said again:
"Originally, the church meeting is a private matter of my Lotus Gate, and I don't want to disturb all the heroes.
"But it's because since you have chosen to be the doorkeeper of this lord, although there are no formal procedures, you are also counted as my lotus gate.
"I invite you to join the church meeting today, but I also want you to know that my lotus has strict rules, and anyone who violates the rules must also be dealt with according to the law, and they must not be sloppy."
When Na Ji heard this, he said:
"You don't need to say more, sir. Since we are determined to follow the adults, we will strictly abide by the rules of the Lotus Gate. Today is just the right time to feel one or two first, so as not to break the door rules in the future, not a trick! ”
That Yang Pu and Mu Wanlian claimed to be yes and agreed.
That Yin Qiu nodded and said:
"So, bring it!"
When Long Zixi heard that he was "bring it up", he immediately refreshed himself and watched carefully.
I saw a knock on the side door, and three people came out.
The middle person has his hands tied behind his back, but it turns out to be Pei Zhen!
On both sides, a strong man held a knife in one hand and grabbed Pei Zhen's shoulder with the other.
Long Zixi said in his heart: "It turns out that it's not Brother Qin!" Why did Pei Zhen become like this? ”
suddenly remembered that Pei Zhen secretly helped himself in Daoxia that day, and Yin Qiu must have seen the clues, blaming him for having a different heart, so what happened today.
I can't help but hesitate, if they are not good for Pei Zhen, will I save him?
didn't think about it deeply, but saw Yin Qiu sit down, but Deputy Chief Manager Qi stood up.
I only heard the deputy head of Naqi say to Pei Zhen:
"Manager Pei, the younger brother is taken care of by the eldest brother on weekdays, and I am very grateful. But today's matter, the younger brother really doesn't dare to harm the public because of his personal interests. I hope that the manager Haihan! ”
That Pei Zhen didn't speak, just nodded and looked at everyone.
Qi Vice Chief Pipeline:
"Manager Pei, do you admit that you colluded with the thief surnamed Long?"
Pei Zhen sighed:
"Who doesn't know that I am loyal to my lord? And you hate that thief to the core? Brother Qi, how can I recognize it? ”
Deputy Chief Manager Qi sneered and said:
"So, when the heroes of the Shen Kingdom gathered that day, Long Zixi said in person that he was caught by the guards of the Xirong Kingdom, and you saved him, is there any such thing?"
Pei Zhen confessed:
"Yes."
Qi Vice Chief Pipeline:
"It's good to have. You know that the young master hates that Long Zixi very much, and you just want him to die, why do you want to save him? ”
Pei Zhen Road:
"One, if I don't make a move, then Long Zixi is not in danger, the so-called saving him is just a coincidence. The two, even if I save him, are only a moment of righteousness, and there is no collusion. ”
Deputy Chief Qi sneered:
"Also, someone saw that you saw the thief surnamed Long the night before the Battle of Dao Gorge, is there any such thing?"
Pei Zhen is still unabashed:
"Yes."
Qi Vice Chief Pipeline:
"Good! So, what did you say to him when you saw him? ”
Pei Zhen Road:
"I told him about our exchange, and I wanted him to snatch the sword book back."
Deputy Chief Manager Qi nodded:
"So, isn't it betraying the young master and turning his heart to the thief? What else does the Governor have to say? ”
Pei Zhen Road:
"I admit that my heart is a thief, but I am not betraying the young master."
Deputy Chief Qi snorted:
"Since your heart is for the thief, you are betraying the young master. Do you still have to force your arguments? ”
Pei Zhen Road:
"My heart is for the thief, and I haven't forgotten the master's great hatred.
"On the contrary, I attacked the thief many times, but unfortunately I was not as good as a man, and I could not hurt him a single hair.
"I did that, just to repay him for not killing the master a few times!
"The young master also wanted to see it on the day of the Daoxia, such a good opportunity, and Long Zixi didn't hurt the master."
Long Zixi said: This Pei Zhen is telling the truth.
But how could Young Master Yin Qiu allow him to be like this?
I couldn't help but hesitate again: If he is in trouble, can I save him or not?
Just thinking about it, I heard Yin Qiu sneer:
"Hmph, fortunately, Lord Ben noticed it and took precautions against it, and didn't tell you the truth that we had joined forces with the immortals.
"But I deliberately borrowed your mouth to confirm the information we were exchanging.
"I saw that you stole the real sword spectrum, and I didn't expose you.
"Otherwise, wouldn't it ruin Lord Ben's great affairs?"
Long Zixi said: Pei Zhen really didn't know about the two sides joining forces.
But I heard Pei Zhen say:
"Young Master! Either the subordinates are strong and reasonable, or the subordinates know the truth, how dare they harm the young master?
"Since the young master has decided to exchange the sword spectrum for the master, and in exchange for the master, the sword spectrum is no longer the young master's thing.
"The subordinates asked Long Zixi to find a way to grab it from the old thief in the Western Regions, but if he can't grab it, it's all up to him, but how can it hinder the young master?
"In addition, the subordinates are tight-lipped about that secret.
"If your subordinates really betray the young master, why don't you tell him everything?"
Long Zixi was shocked: That secret? And the secrets? I just don't know what kind of secret it is?
Before I could think about it deeply, I heard that Ji Gang suddenly interjected:
"Manager Pei, you just said that you attacked the thief surnamed Long many times and couldn't succeed, which means that you already know that you are far from being the thief's opponent. Right? ”
Pei Zhen nodded.
Ji Gang sneered:
"In that case, why did you take the initiative to fight that thief that day, didn't you give yourself hostage? And deliberately lost the sword book to that thief! What else do you have to say! ”
Pei Zhen was asked by him, and he was speechless for a while, but he couldn't answer.
Long Zixi scolded in his heart: "What a ruthless Ji Gang! ”
But he also felt that what Ji Gang said was very reasonable, so it would not be easy for Pei Zhen to distinguish it.
saw Pei Zhen smile bitterly:
Ji Daxia said this, and he had no words to answer. In short, he is loyal to the old man, and he has no second heart for the young master.
"The subordinates treat Long Zixi like this, but they attach too much importance to chivalry, and they want to win a reputation for the young master with clear grievances!
"If the young master thinks that his subordinates are guilty, but just dispose of it!"
That Yin Qiu sank his face:
"Pei Zhen, although you have followed the master for many years, you have a lot of credit. But it is an indisputable fact that you have a different heart and colluded with the thief surnamed Long, how could this lord wronged you? You can't tolerate this! Are you convinced? ”
Pei Zhen groaned slightly and said:
"The subordinates are convinced."
Yin Qiudao said "good", and then asked the deputy manager Qi:
"According to the door rules, what should Pei Zhen do?"
Qi Vice Chief Pipeline:
"Cut off his hand and drive him out of the door!"
Yin Qiu nodded:
"So what are you waiting for? Enforce the door rules! ”
Here, the two of them untied Pei Zhen, and someone had already carried a board and placed it underground.
Two more people came over, plus the two people just now, and the four of them grabbed Pei Zhen's hands and feet and pressed Pei Zhen to the ground.
The other person pressed Pei Zhen's left hand against the board.
That Pei Zhen didn't struggle, thinking that it would be useless to know that struggling.
But I saw a strong man, holding a big knife, slashed a few times at Pei Zhen's left wrist, and slashed down with a big knife.
200
Long Zixi had already pinched a dart in one hand and a sword in the other, and when he saw the man's big knife cut down, he was about to break through the window.
Suddenly, there was a bang, and the door was kicked and broken, and then a person jumped into the room with a swift body.
Long Zixi looked closely, and that person turned out to be Yin Jifu!
I had just paid all my attention to the house, but I didn't notice when he came.
I saw Yin Jifu jumping to Pei Zhen's side, and regardless of the few people next to him, he immediately pounced on Pei Zhen.
The man with the knife had already seen that it was Master Yin, and he was shocked to put away the knife, but how could he have time?
Although the big knife had lost its strength, it still slashed down and slashed at Yin Jifu's left arm.
Yin Jifu screamed, and his left hand flicked upward, hitting the man's throat.
The man snorted and fell headlong.
Suddenly, the people in the house stood up one after another, and a few people rushed over.
Yin Qiu even grabbed in front of Yin Jifu and shouted "Master!" ”
Seeing that Yin Jifu, although his left arm was injured, he didn't care about it, he just hugged Pei Zhen, showing joy on his face, like a child seeing his relatives.
Long Zixi sighed in his heart: I didn't expect this Yin Jifu to recognize Pei Zhen!
It turned out that after Yin Jifu went crazy, he didn't recognize anyone at first.
But after a long time, Pei Zhen took care of him, and he slowly had an impression of Pei Zhen, and he became dependent on Pei Zhen.
After Pei Zhen was detained alone, Yin Jifu didn't see Pei Zhen for a few days, and he was very anxious.
Just after Long Zixi left just now, Yin Jifu finally broke out.
How can those two old mothers control him? He threw the two of them away and rushed out of the room.
Although he was insane, the manor was the place where he had lived for many years, and the road was familiar.
Seeing that the lights were bright in the lobby, he ran over.
When he came to the door, he vaguely heard Pei Zhen's voice inside, and Yin Jifu was overjoyed and broke in.
never thought that he would inadvertently save Pei Zhen.
It is also this Pei Zhen who is loyal to Yin Jifu, so he has today's good reward.
Long Zixi couldn't help but sigh in his heart:
The so-called good has a good reward, and it is true!
was sighing to himself, but saw Yang Pu shake his head and said to Yin Qiu:
"Lord Yin, isn't it providence that Pei Zhen has to be rescued by the master? Looking at the current situation of Master Yin, according to the old man's opinion, it is better to spare Steward Pei and order him to serve the master for life. How is it? ”
At this time, the two old mothers had also chased after them, knelt on the ground when they saw this, and cried:
"Please be gracious, young master, the master really can't leave Steward Pei!"
Seeing this, Yin Qiu sighed and nodded:
"That's it, just follow Yang Daxia's wishes."
Then he turned to the people:
"Don't take it as an example!"
Everyone said yes, and they hurriedly stepped forward to remove the board and help Pei Zhen up.
That Pei Zhen got off, and he rushed to Yin Jifu's side early, calling "master" while checking his wounds.
Someone went to greet the knife man again, but fortunately he was not dead, and hurried to the rescue.
While everyone was busy, they thought that Pei Zhen had almost been cut off just now, and they all felt a pang in their hearts.
After this trouble, the church broke up unhappily.
Long Zixi saw that everyone was leaving, and seeing that there was no news of Brother Qin and others, he also secretly returned to Baocheng.
When they returned, they were still waiting for news.
Listening to what Long Zixi said, he couldn't help but sigh.
Hua Dining Road:
"In this way, Brother Qin, they should not be in Camel Dongzhuang, then nine times out of ten, they will be in Naxi Dog. It's late today, and we'll negotiate again tomorrow. How is it? ”
Everyone nodded yes and said yes, and they went their separate ways to rest.
