Chapter 108: Killing the Horse Thief

Shen Ru didn't know about it at first, until Chen Qing asked someone to call her out.

"What, the horse thief killed the man from the previous station?"

"Yes, Shen Ru, do you know what this matter will bring you if it leaks out?"

Chen Qing said with a calm face.

"Didn't I say that if I am really asked, I will bear it alone."

Shen Ru said calmly, "Moreover, it's not me who is the murderer." ”

Chen Qing raised his eyes and looked at Shen Ru, then frowned and said, "Even if there is someone behind you, you don't have to be so fearless!" ”

"I haven't thought about hiding this from anyone, the officials know it, and the exiles have also seen it, how can I hide it?"

Shen Ru asked rhetorically, "But I'm in charge, if a woman doesn't resist, she will be bullied, and as for the last horse thief who kills people and sets fire, that is the slut has his own harvest, isn't it?" ”

Chen Qing was speechless for a while.

"Telling you about this is naturally to make you prepared, the horse thief has been escorted to the county guard prison, and then the official will also change shifts."

Chen Qing then said: "Replaced by the official of Suzhou, I hope you don't fall into the mouth." ”

"Lord Chen, you think too much, but whenever you change shifts, which official doesn't think about it, why does our family take the carriage?"

Shen Ru didn't care much and said: "A lot of things, see through it and don't say it." ”

Chen Qing was also speechless by Shen Ru's attitude, and then said quietly: "Suzhou is more than halfway, after Suzhou is Shazhou, and then Liangzhou, I hope there will be no more accidents." ”

Shen Ru heard the reminder in Chen Qing's mouth, and she smiled and said, "If people don't offend me, I won't offend people." Master Chen, you know! ”

Chen Qing didn't want to say anything to Shen Ru anymore, so he waved his hand and asked Shen Ru to go back.

The accident happened in the middle of the night.

Outside the post station, there were horse thieves around, each with torches in their hands, shouting that if they didn't let people go, they would burn the post station.

Yi Cheng hurriedly woke up Chen Qing, and everyone had already been sent to the county guard prison overnight!

"Master Chen, what do you think of this!"

"Call the Master, I'll meet this wave of horse thieves."

Chen Qing commanded in a deep voice.

"Called...... Who is it called? ”

"Official, there are ...... Shen Ru! ”

After Chen Qing finished speaking, he put on his robe and walked out.

"The prisoner has been transferred to the county guard jail, and you are too late."

Chen Qing saw that there were about thirteen or fourteen people, but everyone was holding torches in their hands, and it was really tricky to set a fire.

"Impossible, what's wrong with my brother, your official escort of the exile is too crossy!"

Chen Qing sneered: "Isn't it a matter of killing people and setting fires?" He said everything you did at the last post station, what are you waiting for such a vicious person to do if he doesn't send it to the government to handle it strictly? ”

"And a few of you, none of them can get out of it."

Chen Qing's words really shocked the horse thief leader.

"Cowardice, I actually said it!"

I only heard the leader of the horse thieves say indignantly, and then pointed at Chen Qing with a torch.

"Now that you all know, let's give it all to here. Brothers, set fire! ”

As he spoke, the leader of the horse thieves threw the torch at Chen Qing.

Chen Qing dodged one by one, and the torch fell down on the door panel, but it also lit something.

Moreover, one torch after another was thrown towards the post station, so that Chen Qing had to retreat behind the door.

"Head, what should I do?"

The official who arrived immediately saw the fire outside and asked anxiously.

"Get water, hurry up and get water to douse the fire!"

Chen Qing shouted.

Shen Ru was late, and when she saw the smoke outside, she was shocked.

"Lord Chen, what's going on?"

"The horse thief wants to kill people and set fire to them."

"Head, you smell it, it smells of wine, damn it, this group of people use wine to make fire!"

When Shen Ru heard this, he wanted to open the door, but was stopped by Chen Qing.

"What are you doing, as soon as the door opens, the fire burns in!"

"How can I stop them if I don't go out?"

Shen Ru asked rhetorically.

"You go to the back door."

Chen Qing shouted: "Others, take water, no matter how big the fire is, you have to douse it with water!" ”

Shen Ru didn't argue, and immediately turned to the back door of the kitchen.

As soon as he went out, Shen Ru confronted two horse thieves, as if he was about to block the back door.

"There's a woman, you see, there's a woman!"

The horse thief also found Shen Ru and immediately screamed excitedly.

He was greeted by Shen Ru's flying knife, which swished, directly brushed his face, and cut off half of his ear.

"Ahh The man shouted in pain, his eyes suddenly showed a fierce light, and he slashed at Shen Ru with a knife.

A horse thief who kills people and sets fires, she doesn't need mercy at all.

The two horse thieves attacked Shen Ru together, but Shen Ru was not afraid at all, and used the method of borrowing strength to make the two of them slash at each other.

And the flying knife in her hand shuttled between the two horse thieves at a very fast speed, and after the quick move, the two were cut by Shen Ru in the neck.

Seeing that the two of them had no power to parry, Shen Ru immediately rushed to the front.

The gates, windows, and eaves of the inn were already on fire, and several horse thieves were even more proud, saying cruel words of murder and arson in the firelight.

Shen Ru's sudden appearance also surprised several people.

"What about Zhao Laosan and Yan Si?"

The leader of the horse thieves felt that something was wrong, didn't he send two people to block the back door, how could anyone still come out?

"Dead!"

Shen Ru said coldly, "You can go and meet them right away!" ”

"What a big breath, brothers, go on, whoever takes her down, she will be whoever!"

Before the horse thief leader finished speaking, Shen Ru had already attacked.

In the post station, Chen Qing asked people to pour water on the doors and windows, and then also asked people to take a team of officials to the back door.

There were twelve horse thieves fighting against Shen Ru, and for a while, Shen Ru couldn't take down all the horse thieves.

At the time of the stalemate, the official messenger also arrived.

Facing Shen Ru's more than a dozen officials, the leader of the horse thieves saw that he was about to suffer, so he was ready to ride on his horse and run away.

Shen Ru's eyes were sharp, and when he saw the man getting on the horse, he clicked on a knife that fell from the horse thief on tiptoe, and kicked it directly towards the horse thief leader.

The leader of the horse thieves was stabbed in the shoulder by a flying knife and fell from his horse.

Seeing this, the official immediately put the knife on his neck.

After a big battle, four horse thieves still ran away, but the rest were either dead or wounded, and the leader of the horse thieves was also captured, and Shen Ru was satisfied with this.

"Boom!" It was the door of the post station that fell, but it directly extinguished the fire on the gate!

Chen Qing took the lead and poured water on other places where the fire started, and soon extinguished the fire.

It's just that in the face of the door frames and window frames that have been burned by the fire, Yicheng wants to cry without tears.

"You ...... Hey, what a disaster for the station! ”

Yi Cheng didn't want to point at Chen Qing too much, but the post station looked like this, his heart hurt!

"What about these people?"

Shen Ru asked, pointing to the horse thief who was still alive.

"I tied people up, I went into the city overnight and reported the matter to the county guard!"

Chen Qing touched the sweat on his forehead, this dangerous night was also due to Shen Ru!
