Volume 1 Out of the Mountain Chapter 53 Another group of people came
"Have you heard, something big happened in the Xu Mansion."
"Huh? I haven't heard of it. ”
"In the morning, two corpses were quietly carried out from Xu's house, wrapped tightly along the way, and directly pulled outside the city to be burned."
"Dead man, what the hell is going on!"
In the morning, the two people who were having breakfast on the first floor of the inn began to talk about what happened in the Xu Mansion. It's not loud here, but anyone on the first floor can hear it clearly.
Soon, someone came over with food, "Tell me, what's wrong?" ”
"yes, I saw it in the morning, but I don't know what's going on."
Xu Dashan is the God of Wealth in Qingyun City, and when something happens in his family, everyone is very curious and concerned.
The man mysteriously swept around the crowd and whispered, "I heard that someone in the mansion has a strange disease. ”
"Sick?"
Everyone wondered what disease could have killed two people so quickly.
"Contagion."
"Ahh
Someone in the crowd immediately exclaimed.
"Who are you listening to?" Someone asked.
The man said: "In the morning, I was supposed to deliver food to Xu's house, but I was stopped at the door. Uncle Wang inside said, let me leave the food at the door, he will ask the people in the house to pick it up, and the silver will be settled for me in a few days. ”
I was puzzled and asked Uncle Wang what had happened? He said that someone in the house had an infectious disease, and it was very bad, and he didn't let me in for my own good. ”
"Ahh There was another exclamation, and the man hurriedly covered his mouth and nose and ran away. It seems that he is afraid that he will be infected because the man who delivered the food is too close to Xu's house.
Soon the people around also realized this, and hurriedly dispersed, leaving the food money and leaving in a hurry.
The man also reacted immediately, and shouted helplessly: "I didn't go in again, you're afraid of a fart." ”
Unfortunately, no one paid any attention to him.
The four of Liu Wenchuan, who were sitting in the corner, glanced at each other and went upstairs after eating silently.
"Could it be that Uncle Xu really has some infectious disease?" Sun Yu said worriedly.
Zhang Xiaobai immediately rolled her eyes helplessly, just this stupid white sweet, her father is also relieved that she came out alone? Ah, right. She secretly ran away from home.
"There is no infectious disease at all, I'm afraid it's a rumor deliberately created by the gangsters hiding in the Xu Mansion." Liu Wenchuan hugged his shoulders and touched his chin with his right hand and said.
Sun Yu asked puzzledly: "Huh? Why do they say that? ”
Zhang Xiaobai sighed and looked at Sun Yu sadly, "Please, my Miss Sun, can you use your brain?" Last night we discovered an anomaly in Sun's house. I said this morning what infectious disease there is, why? Naturally, it's to prevent outsiders from approaching easily. ”
After listening to Zhang Xiaobai's explanation, Sun Yu thought for a few more seconds, and finally suddenly understood.
"If there is no contagion, if they are for money, they can take the money and leave, so why should they not leave?"
This is also a question that Liu Wenchuan and Zhang Xiaobai have been thinking about. The vast majority of the people who kidnapped Xu Mansion in this Qingyun City will be for money, and if they take the money, they will not be over if they just leave, why delay the time and stay in Xu Mansion and not leave?
"Unless, what they want is more important than money."
"So what?"
Zhang Xiaobai took a deep breath, looked at Sun Yu, who seemed to have lost the ability to think, and finally only dropped one sentence, "How do I know." ”
The black girl, who had been silently listening to the discussion of the three of them, was carrying a chicken leg in her hand and eating her mouth full of oil, her big eyes were dripping around, and she had already made a decision in her heart that she could sneak out at night to find out.
Liu Wenchuan and the three of them sat down around the table, and after some discussion, they had a rough guess of the direction.
Either the gangsters who are hiding in the Xu Mansion have not been able to get what they want, maybe that thing is in the Xu Mansion, or maybe it is not in the Xu Mansion. If it is in the Xu Mansion, then Xu Dashan is probably suffering from painful torture; If not, someone may be going to retrieve it, or someone is sending it back.
Next, the three of them are assigned tasks each. Sun Yu walked around the city gates to see if he could find anyone who could. Zhang Xiaobai, I am going to Xu Mansion alone, it would be best if I could find someone to ask about the situation.
As for Liu Wenchuan, he planned to ask the vegetable seller in the morning about the specific situation.
After the task was assigned, the three of them went out together. Before leaving, tell Heiya to play alone in the room, don't run around, and don't open the door to strangers.
The black girl nodded in response.
Sun Yu walked towards the west gate of Qingyun City alone, Zhang Xiaobai still got into the alley, and Liu Wenchuan was aimlessly looking for the vegetable seller in Qingyun City.
At the same time, at the north gate of Qingyun City, five young men and women led horses into the city. After eating hot wontons at a roadside stall, one of the elderly men casually asked after giving the stall owner a reassuring meal money: "Excuse me, how to get to Xufu?" ”
"Huh? Are you going to Xufu? The wonton stall owner asked in surprise.
The man was a little puzzled, but nodded with a smile, "Yes, is there anything wrong?" ”
"Absolutely!" The wonton stall owner said directly, but he immediately realized that his tone seemed to be a little heavy, and he hurriedly explained, "This son, don't get me wrong." It's because the current Xu Mansion can't go, and there are people in the house who are infected with strange diseases, which will be contagious and will kill people. ”
"Oh? And such things? When did it start, does anyone know what the disease is? The man asked, a little surprised.
The wonton stall owner shook his head, he had only heard about it, and he didn't dare to go over there anyway.
The man thanked the boss, and the group led the horse towards the city.
"Senior brother, there is an infectious disease, do we still want to go?" The woman in the green dress walked up to the man and whispered.
"What is there to be afraid of in an infectious disease! Little junior sister, we are martial artists, and ordinary infectious diseases cannot infect us. To the right of the man, another man said with a grin.
"Xiao Gang, don't take it lightly. In case the infectious disease is very away, even if we are martial artists, we may not be able to withstand it. The man casually reprimanded lightly.
The young man known as Xiao Gang smiled and nodded, "Got it, Senior Brother." ”
"Let's find a place to settle down first, and after settling down, we will go to Xufu to have a look."
......
"This uncle, I heard you say that there is an infectious disease in Xufu in the morning, is this true?" Almost halfway around Qingyun City, Liu Wenchuan finally found the vegetable seller on the side of the road in a small market.
The middle-aged man squatted listlessly in front of the vegetable stall, looked up at Liu Wenchuan, and said impatiently: "Of course it's true." ”
"Did you deliver the dish from the side door? Is there anything unusual about the people who come out to pick up the food? How many people came out? When you are at the door, can you hear any other sounds in the Xu Mansion..."
"Boy, who are you? If you don't buy vegetables, if you don't buy them, get out of here, don't delay me selling vegetables. I don't know about Xufu, don't bother me here. ”
Faced with Liu Wenchuan's series of messy questions, the man went crazy directly, and almost took the radish and greeted Liu Wenchuan's body directly!
In desperation, Liu Wenchuan could only retreat and quietly hide in the distance and stare at the vegetable seller. I thought that after he closed the stall, I followed him to a secluded place and asked carefully.
At the west gate of Qingyun City, Sun Yu walked around twice inside and outside the city gate, but did not find any suspicious people. Then he went to the east gate, and wandered around at the east gate for two hours, but he was so hungry that he returned to the inn.
When Sun Yu returned to the inn, he found Zhang Xiaobai sitting in the room with Heiya eating noodles.
"Zhang Xiaobai, why did you come back so soon?"
Zhang Xiaobai squinted at Sun Yu, his mouth was already stuffed with noodles, so he raised his hand and gestured, and then gestured back to the inn, which was regarded as an explanation.
In fact, he didn't get into the Xu Mansion at all, and after wandering around the door for a long time, he didn't see anyone coming out of the Xu Mansion, and he couldn't even see a figure on the surrounding streets. If you run over so recklessly, even a blind person can see it.
Isn't this pure in broad daylight? So he was ready to go home, and wait for the evening to come quietly. But before he could leave, two figures suddenly appeared on the street.
The man was dressed in white and carried a sword behind his back. Next to the man was a young girl with a white dress and a sword behind her back. The two walked directly to the door of Xu's house, and the man stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Zhang Xiaobai hid in the corner, not only curious about the identities of these two people, but also wanted to see more about how Xu Fu would react. After a long while, an old man wrapped in a white cloth poked his head out and questioned the two.
The man was very polite, and after saluting the old man, he said: "Mr. Lao is tired of informing us, we are from the Guzhen Dynasty, and I heard that Master Xu of Qingyun City likes to make friends with people in the rivers and lakes, so he came to visit. ”
"This young man, I'm really embarrassed. Now there is a strange disease in the house, and it will be contagious. The old man has also fallen ill in bed, and I am afraid that he will not be able to meet the young man. I advise the two of you to stay away from Xufu, for fear of getting sick and waiting..."
The man was not only not afraid, but said with a smile: "Coincidentally, my junior sister is the master of Medicine King Gu." I came to visit Xu Mansion today, since I encountered such a thing, how could I stand by and watch. Why don't you bother the old man and Mr. Xu to report it, and we will help you take a look at one or two? ”
Uncle Wang, who was guarding the door, had no reason to refuse to leave the door, and it was a little difficult to make a decision for a while. In the end, he could only ask the two to wait at the door for a while, and he went in to make an announcement.
In fact, he went to inform the two murderous gangsters inside, and let them decide whether the two outside would stay or not.
Soon, Uncle Wang, who was guarding the door, walked out again, opened the door, and let the man and woman walk into Xu's mansion. Zhang Xiaobai, who was hiding in the shadows and observing, was in a hurry, and he couldn't figure out what the situation was.
Could it be that the man and woman who suddenly appeared were actually in a gang with the gangsters inside? Or did they return with what the gangsters wanted?
Then next, they will kill the people of Xu Mansion and leave with what they have gotten.
When people encounter things, they always subconsciously think in a bad direction, and Zhang Xiaobai is no exception. This made him very entangled, he didn't know how many gangsters there were in the Xu Mansion, but now there are two more, and it is really difficult for the three of them to be outnumbered.
But with the young master's character, since this matter is in charge, there is no reason to retreat from the battle, at least try it first to see what he is saying. With a sigh of self-care, Zhang Xiaobai really turned around and prepared to go back this time.
But to his surprise, there were three more people on the street!
"Hey? What's going on? On weekdays, Xu Mansion is fine, and I don't see a few people coming. How did I hear that there is an infectious disease in it, and there are still more people? ”
After carefully looking at the costumes of the three people, Zhang Xiaobai was surprised to find that in addition to being dressed in white, the three of them and the two who had just entered had one thing in common. The same logo is embroidered on the cuffs of their shirts.
What kind of sect is this?
Medicine King Valley? That man was obviously lying, the people of the Medicine King Valley would carry a sword with him?
He felt that this matter was getting more and more difficult, so he should hurry back and inform Liu Wenchuan.
However, the three people who came to the gate this time did not knock on the door, but looked around, jumped directly onto the wall, and climbed over the wall!
"I'm going?" Zhang Xiaobai's footsteps stopped again.
Since you've come here, let's go over and see how to explain it when we go back. Let's see what these people want to do, even if it's killing people, at least they should know who did it. If you really have a chance in the future, you can also help the Xu family get justice.
After some struggle, Zhang Xiaobai fully demonstrated the power of light skills, and under the sun, he was ghosted a few points faster. After a few pauses, he was already on the wall.
As a result, he was greatly surprised by the situation inside, and the two sides actually fought.
The five men in white were together, and now there were two men fighting with the two men they saw last night. The strength of the two sides is equal, and the fight is inseparable. The two men in white have tricky swordsmanship, and they seem to be very upright.
But the two people on the other side are not, the knife technique is strange and vicious. But the cooperation is extremely tacit, and the shot is ruthless and vicious. After a few rounds, they had a faint upper hand.
Seeing that the same door seemed to be a little unbearable, another man who was watching the excitement also followed. Under the shaking of the sword light, he instantly moved back to the situation. If you lose the three-on-two, I'm afraid that you will be embarrassed and thrown to your grandmother's house.
The five of them fought more and more, and the youngest man in the white-clothed camp looked inexperienced at first glance, and became the main target of the two, and was soon slashed.
The man in white who entered first immediately showed anger on his face, "Bastard, the blade is poisonous!" ”
The man slashed his sword, directly picked the opposite man into the air, and then flew and kicked him in the abdomen, the tip of the sword against the man's throat. The other man saw that the situation was not good, and after blocking a sword, he actually threw out a handful of white powder and fled.
Zhang Xiaobai almost couldn't help but stand up and applaud, it seemed that Xu Fu was controlled by the two men he saw last night. I knew if he and the young master would fight last night, maybe now the saviors of the Xu Mansion are the two of them.
"Hand over the antidote, you can be spared from death!" The man looked at the injured man on the ground with a cold face and said in a cold voice.
Then he said to the two women behind him: "Little junior sister, watch the gate and don't let anyone in." ”
"Third Senior Sister, take a look at Xiaojie's injury. Xiao Gang, you go to the inner courtyard to check if there is anyone else hiding. ”
The man in white at the head quickly gave an order to everyone, raised the sword in his hand and slashed at the injured wrist on the ground.
"Ahh Beshi let out a scream, but as soon as the voice sounded, the man in white stepped on his head and made him eat a mouthful of soil.
"Antidote, take it out!"
Then there was another sword, and Beshi's hamstring was broken, and the whole person twitched painfully on the ground.
"You have two more chances."
At this time, he didn't look at it, his mouth was full of dirt, and he couldn't speak at all. The man in white slashed down again, and broke his other tendon.
Don't faint to death!
Zhang Xiaobai, who was hiding on the wall, looked at it with a chill, and originally thought that this group of people was some kind of chivalrous warriors who came to Xu Mansion to save people. But now it seems... With this extreme torture method, I'm afraid...
It's not good to be here for a long time, so it's better to go first.
Quietly retreating from the wall, Zhang Xiaobai ran directly into the alley and rushed towards the inn.
