Changsha County, Luohan Village.

At this time, it is about to enter winter, and even the autumn cicadas have become mournful.

The leaves are yellow, the dead leaves are everywhere, accompanied by the "grinding sound" in this Luohan Village, a depressed picture.

Lu Xun's high fever receded a little bit today, he leaned against the wall, and staggered to the kitchen, where Sun Ru was decocting medicine for him.

"Bo Yan? What are you doing here? ”

Sun Ru saw Lu Xun and hurriedly helped him sit down.

Lu Xun sighed and groaned softly: "Don't worry about you here!" ”

Sun Ru poured the medicine into the bowl, "Bo Yan is not worried about me, he is obviously not worried about your son..."

In Sun Ru's mouth, Lu Xun's son is naturally the eldest son of the Lu family's third room - Lu Yan.

As for the "son's side", it was at the "Guanshan Stone Cave" early this morning, Lu Yan went to count the ordnance, and the money and goods were traded.

"Ugh..."

Lu Xun seemed to be particularly frustrated by his uncompetitive body.

- "I don't have a fever in the morning, I don't have a fever in the evening, but this is the time."

Sun Ru handed the medicine cup to Lu Xun, "Don't guess, it's going to be noon, and the news will come back soon." ”

Lu Xun looked at the slightly rippling black liquid in the bowl and said in surprise: "This medicine? ”

Sun Ru whispered beside him: "I saw that the high fever worsened last night, and I added some boiled licorice and ginger. ”

Lu Xun took a sip of the medicine, his bitter brows furrowed.

Suddenly...

A servant of the Lu family ran in, "Master, madam... Oh no, in the stone cave of Guanshan, there is a dispute... The argument has arose! ”

Lu Xun choked, quickly put down the bowl, suppressed the cough twice, wiped his mouth casually with his sleeve, and asked uneasily.

"How... How can there be a dispute? Be... Is it with that Jiaozhou businessman? ”

"It's Jiaozhou people, but... But it shouldn't be the businessman. The servant replied truthfully, "Yes... It was another group of Jiaozhou people, and they said that this batch of goods was theirs, so... Childe began to quarrel with them. ”

This...

Lu Xun was obviously nervous, his hands couldn't help shaking, and the high fever that had finally stabilized was suddenly up again, and the whole person was also a little shaky.

Sun Ru hurriedly supported Lu Xun, she opened her mouth and said to the servant: "How can there be a dispute for no reason, what happened this morning, you tell me carefully!" ”

The servant swallowed and spat, and quickly answered truthfully.

It turns out that this morning... Jiaozhou merchant Jia Shi Huolong informed them that the ordnance had been completed, and asked them to go to the inventory in advance, for more than an hour, the inventory was clear, and the goods were exactly the same.

So, Lu Yan handed over the gold to Shi Huolong, which was regarded as handing over the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other.

Shi Huolong was also very happy, and after counting the amount of gold, he directly withdrew all the guards at the Guanshan Stone Cave.

It stands to reason that...

When the money and goods are cleared, the deal is considered to be concluded.

Lu Yan ordered the people of the Lu family to carry these ordnance to the ship, and still transported them back by water to Soochow.

Can... I never thought that when they were moving this batch of ordnance, there were still people moving it.

After the people of the Lu family found out, they asked those who were carrying the ordnance, and both sides insisted that this batch of goods was theirs.

Because there are people behind them, the natural tone is not good, only three or two sentences... The two sides quarreled, and there were even some signs of action.

Lu Yan naturally went to argue.

The servant saw that the situation was not right, and came back to report it.

At this moment, this process was reported eloquently, and Lu Xun only felt more and more swelling pain in his skull...

Even Sun Ru couldn't calm down.

Sun Ru asked urgently: "Why do they say that the ordnance is theirs?" ”

"I don't know if it's a little one..."The servant frowned, "From their accents, you can tell that they are Jiaozhou people, Jiaozhou wild land, these Jiaozhou people are extremely reckless, it seems that they can also hear that we are Jiangdong people, and the tone of speech is even more unkind..."

That's when ...

"Patriarch, patriarch—" Another servant rushed over. Oh no... There was a fight in the Guanshan Stone Cave, a fight... The two sides fought in the stone cave of Naguan Mountain! ”

When he blurted out these words, Lu Xun only felt countless cold sweats pouring down from his forehead, but because of this cold sweat, his high fever dissipated a little.

"Ahem..."

He couldn't stop coughing, but he stretched out his hand and ordered, "Take me to... Take me there! ”

Fight because of a batch of ordnance...

This is no small matter.

There are two possibilities, one of which is that this businessman is doing trouble.

After they got the money, they were still ambushing people here to find fault, the purpose... Maybe it's to make another mistake, or maybe he doesn't plan to sell this batch of ordnance to the Lu family at all.

The second, that is, the location of this batch of ordnance is exposed, if... If you take into account that the other party is from Jiaozhou.

That...

Could it be a mutiny? He also coveted this batch of ordnance?

It's hard for Lu Xun, with such a weak body, he still tried to conceive two possibilities.

And no matter which one it is, Lu Xun thinks... I'm afraid it's his son Lu Yandu... may not be able to handle it properly.

"With... Ahem... Take me to..."

Lu Xun said to Sun Ru, this time in an accentuated tone.

"Bo Yan..."Sun Ru gritted her teeth, "but your body..."

"If this batch of ordnance is gone, then... That... Ahem... Ahem, ahem... So what's the use of this body? Lu Xun's eyebrows tightened, and his tone became more urgent.

That's when ...

"Patriarch, it's not good." Another servant hurried over, "Those Jiaozhou people have done a dead hand... The stone cave was full of repeaters, and the two sides shot at each other. He's hit a crossbow bolt! Our Lu family... is desperately fighting with those who are in Jiaozhou! ”

Yes...

Crossbow bolts? Counter-shooting?

Has it come to this point?

Lu Xun only felt a "pop" in his heart.

So close, so many repeaters, it's going to be shot... That... So where is the life?

"Yan'er, Yan'er..." Lu Xun barely supported himself and walked out of the door, but he only took two steps, and with a "bang", he fell heavily to the ground.

"Bo Yan, Bo Yan..."Sun Ru hurriedly went to help him up.

Lu Xun spontaneously lowered his voice, "Yan'er... Yan'er! ”

- "Take me, take me... Fast... Ahem... Take me there! ”

…

…

Gangneung City, at noon.

A notice from Taishoufu was posted in the city.

The people gathered in groups and twos in front of the proclamation, and some literate people were reading aloud the words on it.

- "Cao thief is disobedient, the sky is angry and people are resentful, the emperor's uncle raised volunteers to crusade against Cao thief, recover Nanjun, and swear that the Han thief will not stand together!" ”

- "However, when the Cao thief escaped into Xiangfan, dozens of Wei spies were deployed in Nanjun, and for several years, bribing officials, bribing key points, and passing on intelligence, this sincere crisis was the constraint of the great cause of Xinghan in Nanjun!" ”

——"However, there are thieves Cao Peng, the four sons of the Guan family, who have a discerning eye for thieves, arresting dozens of Wei spies in one day, and beating more than 100 traitors who surrendered to Wei. ”

Next to the announcement, there is also a series of "evidence"...

These were all handed over by Wei Spy led by "Wang Qi", which was enough to prove the identity of his Wei Spy, and also gathered some of their previous acts into an atlas and posted them next to the notice.

All the onlookers couldn't help but be "shocked..."

Looking at the boxes of stolen goods, the people turned their heads to each other and whispered.

"I said with my own eyes that 100,000 gold was dug up in a house next door to my house the night before yesterday... I heard that it was Wei Spy who was buried in the soil and used to bribe the officials of Nanjun. ”

"If it's as you say, then... If it weren't for Guan Sigongzi finding out these Wei spies and these officials who were bribed, wouldn't it be... Nanjun's every move was all exposed to the eyes of the thief? ”

"Isn't it? Otherwise, why did Guan Gong's repeated Northern Expeditions return in vain, these Wei spies did not act behind their backs! ”

"Having said that, what method did Guan Sigongzi use to capture this group of Wei spies? It stands to reason that since he is a Wei spy, he should have been strictly trained and should be very tightly hidden. ”

"Hey, don't you know, I heard that there is a Wei spy named 'Wu Liu', it was he who told Guan Sigongzi to tell the truth, so he wiped out these Wei spies, and Mi Taishou also specially rewarded this Wu Liu! I gave him all the Changxin Restaurant! ”

"Then this 'Wu Liu' is not afraid that his family in the north will be harmed by Cao Cao?"

"Hehe, once you succeed, your bones will wither, this world... If you want to be prosperous, how can you take care of so many people? ”

"Eh, look at the list of bribes, yesterday... The people who followed that scholar Li to make the most trouble turned out to be the officials who had been bribed by Wei Spy..."

"No wonder?"

Just as the people were talking.

On a wooden stake next to him, a shirtless man was tied here, his body was exposed, but he was especially arrogant and scolded: "The four sons of this Guan family are humiliated by me, I don't share the sky with him, I am different from the sun and the moon with him, I want to eat his flesh raw, I want to drink his blood!" ”

This man is none other than Li Yan...

In fact, few people turned their attention to him.

It's not because of anything else, it's mainly that others are not good-looking, and their figure is not very good.

However, there were also a few ordinary people who looked at Li Yan with extremely disdainful eyes.

"It's almost because of you that you have delayed the burden of our Nanjun clearing Wei Spy!"

“… Should... You deserve this humiliation! If I were the fourth prince of Guan, I would never be so benevolent to you! ”

"If it weren't for today's announcement, if it weren't for these evidences, I would have almost been bewitched by you, a villain, and I would have blamed Guan Sigongzi, phew! Also Shu in the celebrity, villain, villain! ”

A mouthful of thick phlegm spat onto Li Li's face.

Li Ming's arms and hands are tied, and he can't wipe off the thick phlegm...

It made him very uncomfortable and humiliated.

But he didn't have the posture of half admitting it.

- "I'll bite you to death..."

- "Guan Lin'er... Hugh let me see you again, I'll bite you to death! ”

But in the crowd, there was a Confucian scholar, he raised his eyes deeply, looked at this notice, and slowly turned around... But when he turned around, he couldn't help but turn around, and stared deeply at the shirtless Li Yan meaningfully.

…

…

Changsha, Guanshan Stone Cave.

When Lu Xun was helped to rush here, there was already a sea of blood.

At such a close distance, the power of the repeater is infinitely magnified.

And as soon as someone shoots the first crossbow arrow, the two sides shoot each other... Under a burst of "suddenness", there will never be a winner in this stone cave!

Blood...

There was blood everywhere, hundreds of people ... Almost a large piece of it was poured, and the rest was lying on the ground moaning.

The huge power of the repeater, at such a distance, is almost fatal!

And this scene gave Lu Xun the most intuitive feeling, and that was four words - shocking.

"How so?" Sun Ru was also so shocked that she couldn't breathe.

She seemed to hear something in her ears, and quickly turned around, her long sleeves raised... A shadow arrow shot out of the cuff and hit the eyebrows of a Jiaozhou man.

With the two sounds of "knock, knock", the Jiaozhou man fell to the ground in response, and his pupils widened...

He holds a repeater firmly in his mouth.

It was as if he was going to sneak attack Lu Xun's side.

"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time..."Sun Ru hurriedly reminded.

"Where's Yan'er? What about Yan'er? Lu Xun hurriedly ordered: "Find, find him!" ”

Lu Yan is Lu Xun's eldest son and the only son so far.

At least for now, he still has high hopes for Lu Xun... This is the future of the Lu family, this is the hope of the Lu family.

"Bo Yan..."

"Find..."

Lu Xun screamed hysterically.

"Daddy... Daddy..."

At that moment, a miserable and weak voice rang out, and in the pile of dead people, a hand was raised.

Lu Xun didn't care about the weakness of his body, and hurriedly knelt down to plan...

After picking up the bodies of the two Jiaozhou men, he finally saw his son.

"Yan'er, Yan'er..."

Lu Xun covered Lu Yan's face...

"Dad..."Lu Yan's voice was as thin as a gossamer, "We've been tricked... I've been tricked..."

Lu Yan's words were like a flash of light.

Lu Xun only felt that the strangeness he had felt since he first heard about this "strange thing" surged up at the same time, and he suddenly figured out something, and there was a trembling in his chest!

"It's... This..."

Lu Xun breathed rapidly, and he clenched his teeth.

What to resell ordnance, what to agree to trade, it's just... It's all a bureau.

A bureau that introduces two buyers to the same batch of ordnance.

This is a game between two tigers...

He Lu Xun didn't even find out until now that this was a plan for two tigers to compete for food!

After making sure that Lu Yan's life was not in danger, Lu Xun's eyes stayed on the repeating crossbow in his hand.

The bright words "Huang Lao Evil Creation" on it are still clearly visible.

Lu Xun gritted his teeth: "Yellow... Yellow! Old! Evil! ”

When he said this, cold sweat was dripping from his forehead...

It was as if he had thought of something extremely miserable.

Envoy to Jiangling, Zhuge Jin and his son were planted in the hands of "Hong Qigong".

And he Lu Xun... Enough caution has been taken.

Still... But in the end... is still completely planted in the hands of this "yellow old evil"!

The planting is heart-wrenching, and the planting is heart-wrenching!

It's even more planted than Zhuge Jin's father and son... Ten times more tragic!

Wait a minute...

The cold sweat stirred up by the huge shock made Lu Xun finally calm down and analyze this matter.

He looked around...

Looking at the crossbows that fell one by one, the strong men who fell in their hands, as well as the side carriages and wooden oxen and horses that had long been soaked in blood.

Something suddenly occurred to him.

If... If this is a round, then next... There's one step missing, and that's... That's just a few people left to wrap up!

Sure enough, as Lu Xun expected.

"Patriarch, patriarch..."

A Lu Jiajun ran quickly, "Found on Guanshan... The officers and soldiers of Changsha County were discovered, and they were... It was the county guard who personally led the troops, and he was... I'm coming in the direction of this cave. ”

- "I knew!"

Lu Xun couldn't help but clench his fists...

- The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind!

- If two tigers compete for food, how can there be no hunter to profit?

But...

Lu Xun is still reluctant, or can't bear it...

His eyes were full of regret, looking around at the repeating crossbows, side carriages, wooden oxen and flowing horses in this stone cave...

He is not reconciled!

- Unwilling!

Can... Now that this is the case, what else can be done?

"Bo Yan, Yan'er is still seriously injured, the officers and soldiers are coming, and it will be too late if you don't leave." Sun Ru persuaded again and again.

At this moment, Lu Xun's facial features on his cheeks were tightly condensed.

This expression is just six words - mourning is greater than heart death!

"-Alas!"

"-Alas!"

After a heavy sigh, Lu Xun could only stand up unwillingly, and he commanded in his hoarse voice: "Go... Walk! ”

- "Take Yan'er and go!" ”

I can only take Lu Yan with me...

This crossbow, this wooden ox and flowing horse, this partial carriage, he... He couldn't take it with him.

The gold converted into 200,000 grains of their Lu family is... I can't take it with me!

With Lu Xun's orders...

Sun Ru commanded several Lu family soldiers who followed, immediately picked up Lu Yan and Lu Xun, and quickly evacuated before the officers and soldiers of Changsha County arrived.

Come in high spirits...

But it's gone!

And in this stone cave, there are especially corpses everywhere.

And here, the blood and water have gathered together and turned into streams... Ranranhong.

There is a smell of blood everywhere, and this smell is disgusting!

Not much...

A group of officers and soldiers rushed in.

The voice of Liao Li, the commander of Changsha County, groaned at the same time.

"——In Changsha, Lang Lang Qiankun, there will be such a terrifying weapon fight, come... Catch them all! ”

It seems that after this voice, Liao Li noticed something.

That's right...

It's the van, it's the wooden ox and the horse, it's the ... Deadly repeaters!

And these, looking at this, Liao Li subconsciously held his chin.

He muttered to himself.

- "This is what Hong Qigong's note mentioned... Surprised?'

Looking at the golden light on a repeating crossbow, the words "Huang Lao Evil Creation" were impressively visible.

Liao Li couldn't help muttering.

"Hong Qigong, Huang Laoxi!"

For a while, he was a little stupid and couldn't tell the difference.

But soon, he came to his senses.

He commanded in a loud voice.

"—These ordnance, all stolen goods, bring them all back!"
