Chapter 367 - Calculate Separately
Just when Lin Yan's knife was about to fall, a shout came urgently: "Keep people under the knife!" ”
Immediately afterwards, a team of people and horses had already rushed in, led by Ma Lu, who saw the scene in front of him, and couldn't care about greetings, and hurriedly said: "Brother Yan Ling, this matter has been reported by the lord of the mansion in person, and the imperial court will soon send someone to investigate, and the rights and wrongs will naturally be clear until then, and it will definitely give you justice." ”
"You must not be confused, because of a moment of anger to put yourself into a place of no return!"
Hearing this, Lin Yan knew that the previous message to Gu Hongming had been answered. After all, this Gu Linchuan and Gu Hongming are equal in rank, and the latter, as the lord of Qingzhou Mansion, cannot blatantly meddle in the affairs of Cangzhou Mansion, so he must find a higher-level official, and even go straight to Tianting to do this.
All this takes time, although Gu Hongming has already done his best, but ......
Lin Yan glanced up at Ma Lu and said lightly: "It's late!" ”
Then, the black broken knife in his hand slashed down without hesitation, and the "help" that Gu Linchuan didn't have time to say came to an abrupt end, his round head rolled on the ground, and there was still an unbelievable expression on his face, as if to say: "How dare he ......"
Seeing this scene, Ma Lu's heart suddenly sank, and he said bitterly: "Yan Ling, you are confused!" ”
Killing the lord of a mansion in public, no matter whether this Gu Linchuan is a traitor or not, and no matter how many evil things he has done, it doesn't matter anymore!
There is only one point, this Yan Ling killed the official of the imperial court, which is something that everyone has seen with their own eyes, and it cannot be denied. In order to save the face of the court, he must die!
It was Gu Linchuan who committed an unforgivable crime, which should also be punished according to Tang law, and although Lin Yan's move was to eliminate harm for the people, it was an arrogance after all!
But at this time, he had to kill, perhaps angered by Gu Linchuan's disregard for the lives of the people and soldiers; Or maybe it's to get rid of this traitor who has been exposed, so as to buy some time for the people of Cangzhou Mansion; Or is it just that he was angered by Gu Linchuan's step-by-step killing!
But no matter what, Lin Yan doesn't want this person to live anymore at this time! Even if you don't be a good official who is honest and honest, benevolent and loves the people, you must not become a traitor who collaborates with the enemy and poisons the people!
What is the meaning of living in the world for such a person? So, Lin Yan helped him get free!
As for the consequences, since you have done it, you don't have to think about it much!
The situation in the field changed too quickly, obviously just now he had already seen this Yan Ling forced into a desperate situation, and then, in just a moment, he was allowed to kill so many people, and even the mansion lord Gu Linchuan died in his hands.
As soon as the leader died, these armor soldiers began to mess up, and Monk Chen and Guo Toad also took advantage of this opportunity to rush to Lin Yan's side and said, "Team Zheng, how are you?" ”
They saw it just now, Lin Yan was stabbed, and the most important thing was that the knife was poisonous, so Lin Yan's state at the moment was not very good.
After a quick glance around, Lin Yan said to the two: "Those people, you can't stay!" ”
He was naturally talking about the four members of the Pluto Sect who had just set up the formation, and the formation and summoning techniques they used together were quite tricky, and now they finally injured these people, once they recovered, they would be difficult opponents!
Since it is a mortal enemy, then if it is not the enemy who dies, it may be his own death!
Chop the grass without removing the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows! Therefore, it is very important to make up the knife.
Monk Chen and Guo Toad naturally understood what Lin Yan meant, and after glancing at each other, they quickly dispersed, attacking and killing the master of the Pluto God Sect.
Those four people are now seriously injured, plus Lin Yan and the others are all going all out, how can they block this soul-seducing attack, and the three of them will die in an instant!
However, the surrounding armor soldiers have already reacted and formed an encirclement again, and the last person wants to kill, but he is powerless!
The key Gu Linchuan had already died, and it was really pointless to stay and do senseless killings with these armor soldiers, so Lin Yan broke out with the two of them with gold guns and silver swords, and then went in the direction of the outside of the city......
The armor soldiers chased out like a fish gushing, Gu Linchuan died, but it does not mean that the guard force here is completely messed up, there are still large and small officers in the city, but they are not decorations.
Soon, someone organized soldiers, the whole city was under martial law, and they quickly searched for them, obviously not intending to let Lin Yan go.
Ma Lu took his people to watch all this quietly, without reacting too much, and a guard beside him drove forward and said, "Captain, don't we need to do something?" ”
Ma Lu sighed and said, "Just be a spectator!" ”
The guard continued, "If we can capture that Yan Ling, it will be a great achievement!" In my opinion......"
Ma Lu turned his head suddenly, looked at him sharply, and said coldly: "I said, don't do anything, do you understand!" ”
The attendant felt the murderous aura in his eyes, and instantly fell silent, not daring to say more.
Ma Lu frowned slightly, looked at the direction of the city gate, and whispered in his mouth: "This is a big deal!" ”
Gu Hongming asked him to ride his horse to Cangzhou Mansion with a warrant, just to protect Yan Ling at a critical moment. However, this kid was not only fine, but killed Gu Linchuan in front of everyone, causing a catastrophe!
Now, there is no room for me to meddle in this matter, so for the sake of today's plan, it is better to quickly report this matter to Gu Hongming.
……
In the city, the search was already in full swing, but there was no trace of Lin Yan and the others for a long time, as if they had disappeared out of thin air, and it was strange!
The so-called "good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles!" "Nowadays, rumors are rife in the city, and all kinds of news are flying all over the sky, and the rumors are boiling!
"Did you hear that? The lord of the mansion has been killed, and the assassin is from the south! ”
"Really? It's too chaotic, it seems that it's not safe here, I'd better think about going to my relatives earlier, it's better to be closer to Chang'an! ”
"Nonsense! Obviously, the lord of the mansion colluded with the barbarians and was killed by patriotic righteous people! Hey, good kill, deserve! ”
"None of what you said is right, in my judgment, it should be a power struggle! Tsk, it's all a conspiracy, a conspiracy! ”
"I don't care so much, these dog officials who ride on my head are all damned, hum, feng shui takes turns, and one day it should be my turn to enjoy the feeling of being on top!"
"Just you? Pull it down! With a poor and sour face, can you have that life? Don't make me laugh! ”
“……”
In short, there are all kinds of things, some worried, some indignant, some snickering, and some sneering...... There are many kinds of things in the world.
However, under the large-scale search and arrest of the whole city, the people were panicked and shrouded in a tense atmosphere.
Gu Linchuan's mansion in the city, at this moment, gathered a lot of soldiers, dressed in iron armor, neatly lined up, and when they stood there, a solemn aura came to their faces, obviously a battle-hardened army.
At the front of the queue, there stood a spirited veteran, although he was close to knowing his fate, but he was wearing armor, hanging a horizontal sword at his waist, and he was extremely powerful.
This person is the Zuo Guoyi Lieutenant of Cangzhou Mansion - Han Cheng, now that Gu Linchuan and Tong Yi are dead, he is the only person in charge of Cangzhou Mansion!
"What about people?" Han Chengyu asked.
"Captain Qiyu, the thief is too cunning, so he hasn't ...... for the time being Not found. A lieutenant below cringed.
Even in the face of the mansion lord Gu Linchuan, he was not so afraid, but the veteran in front of him was different, he had been fighting all his life, and he was a ruthless character who crawled out of countless corpses and mountains of blood! Even if you stop there and don't do anything, it will have a bad breath of its own, which makes people feel cold all over the body!
"Smack!" A whip was drawn with a screeching sound that tore through the air, leaving a trail of blood on the lieutenant's body in an instant.
"Rubbish! I can't even do this little thing, what do you want to eat? There has been no war recently, is it so slack? From tomorrow, the training will be doubled, and if you can't finish it, you won't be allowed to eat, so it starts with you! ”
The lieutenant suffered quietly, but he didn't dare to resist, nor did he dare to argue!
"Keep looking!" Han Cheng said sharply.
"Yes!" The lieutenant bowed his hand and quickly left with the soldiers.
Han Cheng looked at the corpses all over the yard, there was no joy or sorrow, he had seen more on the battlefield than this bloody scene, and naturally he didn't have any special feelings about it.
Walking through the courtyard and into the lobby, Han Cheng sat on a chair, his eyes narrowed slightly, not knowing what he was thinking.
The guards on the side walked up and said, "Captain, what are we going to do next?" ”
Han Cheng glanced at him and said, "Do what you have to do!" Report the matter, the murderer, we must also 'do our best' to search for it, and do our part well! ”
Now he only has a few guards by his side, so he doesn't speak as much as before, and his attitude is more calm, and he doesn't seem to pay much attention to the matter of searching for the murderer.
Hearing this, the guards continued: "There are many martial artists involved in this matter, and they are not people in our army, involving the 'Pluto Sect' and 'Bone Erosion Gate', and we also control a 'Pluto Sect' martial artist, according to you, how to deal with this living mouth?" ”
Han Cheng's fingers tapped lightly on the tabletop, making a crisp sound, and then he paused and said, "Kill it!" ”
With a martial artist of the "Pluto God Sect", it is impossible for him to bring down the people behind Gu Linchuan, but he may get into trouble because of this, so it is really chicken, it is better to abandon it!
Tong Yi is Gu Linchuan's cronies, and these two suppressed themselves a lot when they were there, and if they continue like this, there will be no future! This Yan Ling has done himself a great favor!
The guards took the order and left, and Han Cheng whispered softly: "The old man doesn't deliberately target you, whether you can escape or not depends on your own ability!" ”
……
In the dark, a group of soldiers went out of the city with torches, and the city had almost turned upside down, but Yan Ling and the others were not found.
Some of the proponents of the lord of the mansion proposed to go out of the city to track down, and now that their backers have fallen, if they can't make some contributions as soon as possible, they are very likely to be liquidated.
After all, "once a son of heaven and a courtier", it is very likely that the old guy who will succeed Gu Linchuan is Han Cheng, and it is really possible that the old guy will find a reason to get rid of his actual merits.
When the soldiers defending the city saw that they were their own men, they did not examine them carefully, but opened the gates of the city and let them ride away.
What no one noticed was that along the way, three of the horsemen quietly broke away from the group and soon disappeared into the darkness......
