Chapter 171: Cattle Knife
"Girl, it's snowing!" Xiaolian pointed outside to remind Xin Yu.
Xin Yu walked out of the bookstore door and looked up into the air.
The sky was gray, and the snow was falling down, and she reached out to catch it, and it was a fine snow particle.
This kind of light snow has fallen two or three times since the beginning of winter, and if Captain Yang has an accident tonight, he has to see if it will turn into goose feather snow at night.
But when it really comes to that time, it will be too late to arrange people to set up ambushes.
How many gangsters there are is unknown, Xin Yu is not ready to take the risk and wait, so he arranges for someone to quietly deliver a letter to He Qingxiao.
[In view of the general environment,
If Lord He's people run in vain and have money to make up for it, I believe those people won't have too much dissatisfaction.
He Qingxiao received a letter here, instructing Yan Chao to act.
Fifty Jinlinwei changed into civilian clothes, disguised as book buyers, and walked into the Qingsong Bookstore one after another, and then quietly dispersed near the warehouse under the guidance of Liu Zhou.
As for how to hide himself, these Jinlinwei have their own experience.
Xin Yu met with He Qingxiao in the reception room of the study hall.
He Qingxiao walked in generously and did not hide his identity. That's the benefit of regulars, and others are no longer surprised.
"Thank you-sama for sending so many people to help." Xin Yu didn't have enough money to ask for help, but she was afraid that she wouldn't invite too many people, and there were twenty more people than expected, which made her tense mood much more relaxed.
"Miss Kou doesn't dislike a lot of people, as long as there are too many people." With He Qingxiao's acumen, he could guess that Xin Yu would show his subordinates who came to help.
If it was someone else, he might think that he sent more people to make a fortune, but fortunately, it was Miss Kou.
And he took the initiative to increase the number of people, for no other reason, he just hoped that her safety could be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
It's a pity that Miss Kou only said that she borrowed her subordinates......
"Why, with these people, I feel more at ease." Xin Yu thought that it might not be tonight, and his tone changed, "If the gangsters don't do it tonight, they will trouble Lord He later."
He Qingxiao smiled: "The yamen has been doing a lot lately, and it doesn't hurt for Miss Kou to borrow it a few times."
At this point, he tentatively asked, "Do you need me to come forward—"
Xin Yu smiled and declined: "With Lord He's subordinates, I can deal with it, so I don't have to bother Lord He."
He Qingxiao failed in his attempt and sighed in his heart.
Sure enough, it was rejected.
"Then I wish Miss Kou all the best." He Qingxiao replaced wine with tea and raised the teacup.
Xin Yu sent He Qingxiao to the door of the bookstore, and watched the inky back disappear into the twilight of the wind and snow.
It was completely dark, and the people in the bookstore finally ended their busy day, and after dinner, they fell asleep almost as soon as they touched their pillows, and only the guards on duty were still walking around.
The lights were turned off in each house, and Xin Yu stood in the dark, and by the light of the lanterns under the eaves not far away, he noticed that the snow that was falling suddenly became heavier.
From snow particles to goose feathers, it seemed to be only a moment, and soon a layer of white fell on the roof and the ground.
Xin Yu can be ninety percent sure, the incident happened tonight.
She didn't wear much, she didn't even wear a cloak for ease of movement, and she wore an inky tights that blended perfectly with the night.
At this time, there must have been many people who blended in with the night, some of whom she knew well, and some of whom were uninvited.
Xin Yu's eyes were calm, quietly searching.
The two guards guarding the storeroom shivered with cold, scolded and hid under the eaves and stomped their feet to avoid the snow.
Jin Linwei, who was ambushed nearby, felt even more cold because he couldn't move, so he was dissatisfied.
"The boss doesn't say exactly when he will wait, so let's come here and freeze?" A Jinlinwei complained in a low voice.
"Shhhhhh
There was indeed movement.
Captain Yang is here.
In order to raid those guards who are not attentive when they are on duty,
Captain Yang didn't even mention the lantern, and deliberately slowed his steps.
Xin Yu held his breath and watched Captain Yang suddenly stop, and without hesitation, he ejected the stone in his hand.
The cold light pierced the night sky, and the long knife was deflected by the stone, making a crisp sound.
Captain Yang can be the leader of more than 100 guards, and his skills are very good, he quickly dodged the sneak attack, and shouted while fighting with the man with the knife: "There are villains!"
The two guards guarding the storeroom looked at each other.
One of them looked suspicious when he heard Captain Yang's shout, and subconsciously went to find the gong that warned him.
The other, with a hideous face, drew a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed at his companion. The screams rang out, but not from his companions, but from his.
Yan Chao, who was guarding nearby, put away his bow and crossbow, and rushed over with his knife.
When Captain Yang shouted out, the gangsters who had rushed in rushed out, and the Jinlin Guard who was in ambush then poured out.
On one side was the well-armed Jinlin Guard, with fifty people, and on the other side, there were only more than ten people with knives and sticks, plus the thief who guarded the warehouse.
There was a huge disparity in numbers, a huge disparity in strength, and in less than two quarters of an hour, the fight was over.
More than a dozen masked men were slashed to death, and the rest were wounded and screaming.
Yan Chao, who was in the lead, looked at Xin Yu who came over with a complicated expression.
It's just such a gangster, and you want them to go to the top fifty Jinlinwei together, as for it?
"Good work." In front of the gangsters, Xin Yu did not directly call out Yan Chao's identity.
"What are you going to do with these people?" Yan Chao asked.
Xin Yu put on a thick cloak for her by Xiaolian, and her frozen white lips spit out a few words: "Send the official early tomorrow morning!"
Early the next morning, the capital was covered in snow, and the road was covered with a thick layer of snow.
The side door of Qingsong Bookstore opened, and the bookstore guards led by Captain Yang rushed out, which quickly attracted a lot of attention.
People watched as the two guards came out with a shelf one after the other, and the shelf was covered with cloth, and the bulging shape was covered with a person under the cloth.
Then another shelf was lifted, and then another ......
"What's going on?" Since the cold weather, people who have gossiped more and more because of their lack of work have become more and more acute.
"Look—" The man's eyes widened.
On a shelf being carried, a hand slipped out of the sheet.
"Mom, it's really human!" After a brief moment of stuckness, the man shouted.
Watching the lively people were in an uproar.
Then, I saw several people in black being tied up and dragged out by the guards.
"What's going on?" Someone couldn't help but be curious, and dared to lean over and ask.
Liu Zhou accompanied Xin Yu to walk behind, and said loudly when he heard this: "So that the neighbors know that last night, these dozen gangsters broke into the bookstore at night and wanted to rob money, but fortunately, the guards of our bookstore were strong, cut and killed nine people, captured five people alive, and now they are all sent to the official mansion!"
As soon as these words came out, it became even more lively.
In the house, in the alley, in the corners, many people came out at once, as if by magic, and followed these people from Qingsong Bookstore to the official mansion.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" The people I met halfway inquired and quickly joined the team.
It's almost the New Year, why don't you prepare something new to talk about?
