Zheng Kaifeng could have easily dodged, but he was reluctant to throw away the spear in his hand, and was thrown out by the company with the gun.

He flew out just in time to see King Yi falling from a high altitude, and he had the heart to avenge his uncle, but his skills were not as good as others.

Leaving the green mountains without worrying about running out of firewood, as soon as he gritted his teeth, Zheng Kaifeng borrowed his strength to rush out and disappeared into the dense jungle.

Lu Jin leaned over to chase, but his arm was grabbed by Gu Shengchao: "There is a way to be chased by the poor Kou Mo, first solve the crisis of your own family."

Looking at the scene of the scuffle, Lu Jin was immediately shocked.

Although the more than 20 villagers knew some kung fu and fought hard, their opponents were extremely vicious and experienced bandits, so they had to retreat one after another.

Fortunately, many of the original officers and soldiers in Jinniu Village were coerced to join, and at this moment they were holding weapons to assist the villagers and temporarily block the opponent's offensive.

The new officers and soldiers finally distinguished the authenticity from the false, and they also joined the ranks of fighting against Jinniuzhai.

Hang Yifan didn't know martial arts, and his legs and feet were injured, so it was difficult to walk, but when he saw that a villager was in danger, he raised his crutches and smashed it at the bandits who attacked the villagers.

The bandit flew up and kicked Hang Yifan in the chest, and he let out a muffled "ah", and flew out and rolled down to the col.

Lu Jin nodded knowingly, and the two tacitly rushed over to assist the villagers and officers and soldiers who were struggling to support them.

With the two of them joining, the situation that was passive was immediately reversed, and the minions of the big and small who rushed over from the Golden Bull Village were killed one after another.

Lu Jin looked weak, but the scimitar in his hand was ruthlessly harvesting their heads.

Gu Shengchao was even more like entering a no-man's land, and the bandits only hated his father and mother for having a few legs, and ran out wildly.

Hang Yizhou's martial arts are not as good as An Zheng's, just now he was in full swing with the crowd, and he barely fought with An Zheng, after the scene reversed, he couldn't help but panic, and his wrist was stabbed by An Zheng's sword when he was slightly distracted.

With a "boom", the sword was taken off.

Hang Yizhou endured the severe pain and turned around and ran, just after running a few steps, suddenly there was a pain in his chest, and a bloody blade pierced through his chest.

"Brother save me!"

In a trance, Hang Yizhou shouted out a heartfelt cry.

An Zheng pulled out his sword suddenly, Hang Yizhou said "uh" a few times, his eyes turned black, and he fell down and never woke up.

The trees fell and scattered, the first few people who died fled to death, the rest of the natural birds and beasts scattered, and the battlefield returned to calm.

"The county guard, the county guard?" Gu Shengchao suddenly realized that there was one person missing.

Someone found the county guard in a crack in the stone of the col, and several people carried him out.

I tried to breathe normally, my chest could rise and fall on its own, and it seemed that I was just fainting.

Gu Shengchao injected him with true qi and dredged his closed meridians one by one, Hang Yifan shuddered, and then slowly woke up.

Looking at the dead and wounded officers and soldiers, Hang Yifan shed tears: "I'm sorry for everyone, I, the county guard, have failed you. They saved me, but I couldn't save their lives."

After cleaning the battlefield, the names of those who died were recorded so that they could be compensated for later.

The villagers made a simple stretcher, the officers and soldiers carried Hang Yifan, Gu Shengchao and Lu Jin guarded beside them, and the county guard's wife followed.

With a large number of officers and soldiers, the two children of the county guard also took turns to hold them, and the team returned to the mansion in a mighty way.

Immediately afterwards, Gu Shengchao led the officers and soldiers to Jinniuzhai to suppress the bandits.

The stockade was empty, and everyone set a fire to the stockade before going back to restore their lives.

After reporting to the imperial court, it takes time to wait for the reply and the next arrangement, and the rest of the things are handled by the county Shouhang Yifan, Gu Shengchao has nothing to do, so he goes back to his hometown to visit.

He agreed with Hang Yifan that he would come back ten days later to wait for news from the imperial court.

Gu Shengchao set off, and Lu Jin took the initiative to accompany him.

"Who else is in the house?" On the way, Lu Jin asked casually.

Gu Shengchao rode a BMW to chase the wind, sighed and said, "I have no relatives for a long time, only my cousin's family lives in the old mansion, but I don't want to see them."

"Why? In that case, does it make sense to go back?" rash

Jin was puzzled.

Gu Shengchao told Lu Jin in detail about the housekeeper Zhao Yinhu killing his parents, how he took revenge, and how Gu Shenglong took possession of the old mansion and plotted against him.

After hearing this, Lu Jin was even more puzzled: "That cousin of yours did not hesitate to plot against you behind his back in order to get the family property, can he just spare them?"

"So what, have they been arrested and executed?" Gu Shengchao shook his head and said, "When is the time for retribution, I should let it go, I want to go back to the streets and alleys where I played when I was a child, even if I sit for a short time, I am satisfied."

Lu Jin thought for a while: "Anyway, I can't do it, since I don't want to take revenge, let's forget about this unpleasantness completely!"

"What I can't forget, I won't forget in my life. Sometimes letting go is a gesture that doesn't have to be forgotten." The ancient saint super-longitudinal horse let the horse walk and stiffen.

Lu Jin shook his head: "I don't understand."

"Hatred can be put down, but it must not be forgotten. Because many bad people believe in burning, killing, looting, stealing, abducting, and deceiving in their bones, once we choose to forget, they will become even more evil. These people will never repay their grievances with virtue, they will only kick their noses and faces, and they will make inches. Therefore, it is just an instinct of our good people to let go, and we should pay attention to the fortification, and nip the hidden dangers in the bud at any time."

Gu Shengchao's meaningful words, Lu Jin didn't understand it, her experience was far inferior to Gu Shengchao, and many truths needed to be empathized with in order to truly understand.

Soon came to Pengjiawan, saying that it was a bay, but in fact there was no water here, but there was a mountain col not far away, and occasionally there was a flood in summer that flooded the farmland.

Pengjiawan does not have the surname Peng, but there are many surnames of Zhangwang, Li and Zhao, and no one knows the origin of this place name.

At this moment, it was twilight, and Gu Shengchao was in a melancholy mood when he returned to his hometown, and a lot of sadness poured out inexplicably.

The streets of Pengjiawan were empty, and Gu Shengchao was a little different.

It stands to reason that this is the time when the lights of thousands of homes are lit up, the smoke is rising, and the whole family gathers together to talk, laugh and eat.

However, the empty streets, deserted courtyards, and the whole town did not have the slightest smell of fireworks, as if it was a dead city.

There are only two lonely figures, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves stepping on the stone slabs in the streets and alleys is even more depressed.

All the doors were closed, and when passing by an inn, Gu Shengchao saw that the courtyard door was empty, so he got off his horse and led Lu Jin to push the door with his mount.

There was only one old man in the courtyard who was staggering, and he was walking slowly in the direction of the courtyard gate, and was slightly surprised to see the two of them come in, and then asked softly, "Are you staying in a hotel?"

"Exactly." Gu Shengchao nodded.

After receiving an affirmative reply, the old man closed the courtyard door and walked to the inn: "Lead the horse in, it's not peaceful at night here."

Regardless of whether they understood it or not, the old man walked into the door and waited for them behind the door.

There is obviously a horse stall next to it, although it is dilapidated, it is indeed okay to shelter from the wind and rain.

The first time Gu Shengchao heard that horses could also enter the inn, he saw that the old man didn't seem to be joking, nodded at Lu Jin, and took the lead in leading the horse in, and Lu Jin followed.

Seeing that the sky was dark, the old man couldn't wait to close the door.

Gu Shengchao looked inside, the place where they were located was a hall, with many tables and chairs placed in a mess, which should have been a place to rest and eat before.

It's just the thick dust on the tables and chairs, telling them that this place has been abandoned for a long time.

Directly opposite the doorway, there is a staircase that leads up to the guest room on the second floor, and the steps are also covered with thick dust, and it is obvious that no one has gone up for a long time.

The old man lit two oil lamps and put them on the table, and deliberately settled them: "The rules of the town are that when you hear the sound of the bell when it is dark, you must not go out, as long as you stay in your room, you will be safe, and those who dare to go out without permission will definitely lose their lives."

"Why, are there beasts outside at night?" Lu Jin was curious.

The old man shook his head and said, "Don't be afraid, girl, there are ghosts here at night, but they only hurt lonely pedestrians, and they will be fine if they stay at home, so don't go out, remember, remember."

"By the way, you can live in any room in the building, as long as you don't go out, not even the window

Just open it and remember it." The old man brought an oil lamp and wanted to go back to his room.

Gu Shengchao said softly, "Old man stay, has it always been like this here?"

The old man sighed and said, "It's not a secret, in the past, the town was so busy with traffic, and it was bustling with merchants coming and going, and all the changes were related to a young man named Gu Shengchao."

"Oh, what's the matter?" When Gu Shengchao heard that it was related to him, he couldn't help but be curious, Lu Jin glanced at Gu Shengchao, and his eyes widened and listened carefully.

The old man said quietly: "Zhao Yinhu, the housekeeper of the ancient house in Pengjiawan, murdered the master, and the son of the ancient family, Gu Shengchao, escaped by luck, and came back two years ago to take revenge and kill Zhao Yinhu, since then, this mansion has been doomed, causing the entire town to decay, and now there are less than ten families in the huge town who stick to it, and the rest have moved out to relatives and friends."

"What happened, and what happened to the family that moved in later?" Gu Shengchao was anxious to know the follow-up.

"They are all dead, and the death is extremely miserable, people say that Zhao Yinhu borrowed the corpse to take revenge and killed their whole family." Saying this, the old man looked at the door uneasily, for fear that something unclean would come in.

"After that house is deserted, if someone dares to move in, one will go crazy within three months, and no one will dare to live in it again." The old man explained.

"First I heard the laughter of women coming from time to time in the house, and then from the courtyard there were all kinds of bells coming from intermittently. Someone reported to the officer, but the officers and men did not dare to go at night, and when they went to check during the day, it was a deserted house, and they found nothing, so they had to return in a huff."

"The people who lived in the town began to have bad luck, and from time to time ghosts were seen cruising through the streets, and the sound of bells spread from the house to the whole town. People say that it is a terrible ghost, and burning incense and offering it for a long time has no effect."

"So the people of the town began to move to other places, and gradually the whole town was abandoned, alas, alas." The old man is also talkative.
