Chapter 127: Missteps

"Yes...... Probably works, right? Facing Xu Zhen's question, Qi Yunzheng replied seriously and hesitantly, "It is an ancient secret passage, which may have been used for emergency escape in the past, but part of the passage to the south has collapsed, and if you want to find the exit, I am afraid you will have to dig ......"

"What? Have you been in? Song Zhili's eyes widened, and he said in his heart, this is my home?

Qi Yunzheng nodded: "After the second sister found the entrance, I went in to check, there is wind inside, there must be an exit." ”

"Lord Song," at this time, Xu Zhen shrugged his shoulders and said to Song Zhili, "Since you have revealed such a major secret, I have no choice!" If my guess is right, they will definitely come to the yamen tonight to rob people, and they want to snatch Cui Xiaotian away, let's make a good plan early! ”

Hearing Xu Zhen's words, everyone was even more anxious.

"Dare!" Only the tiger girl Shen Yutian is not afraid, "Whoever dares to rob someone, I will go and use the iron rod!" ”

What's that?

Pontil?

Xu Zhen didn't understand it very well, but he could roughly guess that Shen Yu's strength was so great, and it was obviously not easy to use ordinary wooden sticks and sticks.

Eighty percent, she is playing with iron sticks, but Shen Lao is afraid that the iron rod will be too lethal and afraid that she will cause trouble, so he has been letting her play with wooden sticks.

But...... I have to say that with Shen Yu here, Xu Zhen is still a little confident.

"Let's ......" However, Chen Houlu tried his best to make peace, "Can we not use force?" Can you think of a comprehensive plan and negotiate with Lord Thorn? ”

"I won't tell you anything," Song Zhili said, "He has already given me conditions, as long as Cui Xiaotian is released, he can not only save our lives, but also let me be promoted." ”

"That's right!" Chen Houlu was overjoyed, "Wouldn't this be good?" ”

"Impossible," Shen Mingchen emphasized again, "After Cui Xiaotian hands it over, they will definitely find a way to destroy us!" Dare to do anything to burn down the grain depot, what else can we little people do? ”

"Think about it from another perspective," Xu Zhen said, "If I were an assassin, there would only be two things I need to do now, one is to catch Cui Xiaotian and force him to tell him what the life-saving mechanism is?" The second is to kill all the insiders! ”

"Then ......" Finally, Cheng Xiao, who hadn't spoken for a long time, spoke up, "What if we kill Cui Xiaotian now?" ”

"......" Everyone was silent, all thinking about the consequences of killing Cui Xiaotian.

Obviously, this idea is wrong, killing Cui Xiaotian is equivalent to dying with the other party.

"Xu Zhen," Song Zhili was still complaining about Xu Zhen, "I know best in my heart that all of this is because of you, and for your own selfish desires, all of our Yamen people will be killed!"

"Since you wanted to bring down Cui Xiaotian from the beginning, then you should have thought of countermeasures earlier, right?"

What?

Everyone just felt overwhelmed and couldn't keep up with the rhythm at all.

"How...... What's going on? Chen Houlu was even more dumbfounded, "How could it be because of Xu Zhen?" Didn't we catch the wrong person? ”

"Bring down Cui Xiaotian?" Shen Yu didn't know why.

So, everyone's curious eyes all turned to Xu Zhen.

Xu Zhen naturally understood that Song Zhili wanted to hate himself before he died, and he was still haunted by the fact that he had deceived him into the game.

"Yes," Xu Zhen glared at Song Zhili and began to fight back, "I had a plan before, but you shouldn't interrogate Cui Xiaotian privately." If you hadn't forced Cui Xiaotian to tell the secret, we might still have room to turn around. ”

"Hey? Are you blaming me? Of course Song Zhili was not convinced, "If I don't pry the secret out of Cui Xiaotian's mouth, then I'm afraid we will be finished long ago!" ”

"What are we ours? If you don't let Cui Xiaotian confess, then it's just that you yourself will be deposed! Xu Zhen said mercilessly, "Don't say it so high-sounding, to put it bluntly, it's not for your own selfish desires?"

"You forcibly interrogated Cui Xiaotian, just to get the handle of the superior officials, thinking that in this way you can be the second Cui Xiaotian!"

"You...... You are talking nonsense! Song Zhili was mad with anger.

"Let me ask you," Xu Zhen asked, "Why didn't you discuss with me before you tried Cui Xiaotian?" Since it has been tried, why not bring out the so-called life-saving mechanism as well? ”

"Huh? Yes? Chen Houlu's eyes lit up, "If we know what the life-saving mechanism is, can we borrow it?" ”

"Chen Xiancheng, it's useless to try it out," Shen Mingchen shook his head, "Then they won't let us go!" ”

"Am I for my own selfish desires?" Song Zhili was so anxious that tears rolled in his eyes, and he said angrily, "If it was for my own selfish desires, then I would have promised Han Tingshi just now to join their circle!"

"Xu Zhen," he excitedly picked up the stack of papers that had been torn by Han Wentao, "Do you really think that I don't want to be a good official so much?" Am I really not thinking about the people at all?

"There are four bullies in Yanping County! If I really wanted to be a corrupt official, then I would have worn a pair of pants with these four people a long time ago!

"But what's the use of my blood? How easy it is for a mayfly to shake a tree! Song Zhili trembled with excitement, "Look at my current appearance, I am very happy to eliminate the two major bullies, but what is it for me in exchange?"

"Sacrificing one's life for righteousness sounds good, but if you really give up one's body, will you definitely be able to obtain that righteousness? It's a worthless sacrifice! I want to live...... Is there a sin too!? ”

Song Zhili's words are true, and there is a certain amount of truth.

It is not easy to be an official, and it is even more difficult to be an official in the Daxuan Dynasty, which has bad power.

Xu Zhen also knows that Song Zhili is not a good official in the strict sense, but he is definitely not a corrupt official.

Otherwise, no matter how perfect Xu Zhen's previous plan was, it would be impossible for Song Zhili to choose to be the enemy of the bullies.

"......Originally," Xu Zhen softened his tone and said, "I want to use the power of the people to get rid of Cui Xiaotian, if you don't interrogate him, then Cui Xiaotian should die on the way through the streets in the end."

"But it's too late to say anything now, we can't even get out of the yamen!"

"What can't you get out?" Shen Yu stood up suddenly, "I'll go find an iron rod now and kill it!" ”

"Sit down!" Shen Mingchen hurriedly pressed Shen Yu down.

"Then dig the tunnel," Cheng Xiao came up with the idea, "Dig up the tunnel, take Cui Xiaotian out, and then implement your plan." ”

"It's useless," Xu Zhen shook his head helplessly, "I said, my plan is based on the fact that you didn't let Cui Xiaotian tell the secret, and now even if the people kill Cui Xiaotian, we will still be killed!" ”

"Huh? This ......" Song Zhili grabbed his hair with both hands, regretting it, "I knew this was the case, I should have discussed it with you, alas, ......"

"Then ......," Shen Mingchen asked Xu Zhen, "can you think of any other way now?" ”

"For now," Xu Zhen shook his head and said, "I can only escape!" Cheng Zhutou is right, we have all seen the ability of Sima Xin's gang, rushing, we will definitely not be able to rush out, we can only find a way to dig up the secret passage, find the exit, and then take Cui Xiaotian away first. ”

"Huh? Then ......" the monk Qi Yunzheng suddenly became anxious, "What about my eldest brother's case?" Couldn't the ghost-faced killer be caught in vain? ”

"Great monk," Chen Houlu complained, "all of us can't save our lives, and you are still thinking about overturning the case?" Life is gone, what to turn it over? ”

"Huh!?" Qi Yunzheng was glaring at Xu Zhen, as if he was about to tell the deal between him and Xu Zhen on the spot.

"Then take Li Zhun out too," Xu Zhen hurriedly blocked Qi Yunzheng's mouth, "The matter of the Ghost Face Killer, let me think about it again." ”

"Okay, good ......" Qi Yunzheng also realized that if he dared to target Xu Zhen, then Xu Zhen would dare to involve his benefactor Shen Mingchen, so he quickly accepted it when he saw it.

"Before we dig the exit," Xu Zhen said again, "they may come and rob people at any time, and we have to be ready to fight......"
