Outside Wansheng Gate, twenty or thirty miles to the west, there is a large manor.

The flagpole in front of the manor is erected high, and a flag is embroidered with the four words "Zhengyuan Dart Bureau", with iron and silver hooks, simple and upright. A flag is embroidered with an eagle flapping its wings and flying fast, and the flag is waving in the wind, and the eagle is even more alive. The eagle danced its eight claws and aimed at the horned lark under him, and the lark looked panicked and wanted to flee.

Behind the flagpole, two big stone lions divide the town gate left and right, two pieces of vermilion lacquer gate are seamlessly intertwined, and the plaque on the top of the door reads "Zhengyuan Dart Bureau" four gold lacquer big characters, dignified and beautiful.

On the avenue outside the manor, the two came on horseback in the morning light. As soon as he ran to the flagpole and reined in the reins of the horse, the gate of the manor was opened at the same time, and a middle-aged man dressed as a dart master walked out, it was Pan Youan, who was the iron palm.

Pan Youan glanced at the comer, greeted him, and said with a fist: "Xue Zhutou, Bai Shaoxia, come early in the morning, is there something wrong?" Have you had breakfast? ”

Bai Yutian and Xue Yunfei returned the salute with their fists, and Xue Yunfei said: "Pan Darttou, is Mr. Liu at home?" ”

Pan Youan replied with a smile: "I just got up and was washing in the hospital." ”

Bai Yutian said: "Then there is Lao Pan Dart to invite President Liu's head to come, and I will discuss something good with him." ”

Pan Youan said: "Why don't you go in and have a cup of morning tea and chat while drinking?" ”

Xue Yunfei said: "Thank you for your kindness, but it's just a trivial matter, just leave after speaking, don't alarm others." ”

"Please wait, I'll report it." Pan Youan gave up his hand, turned around and walked towards the manor.

After a while, Liu Gaosheng walked out of the manor with Pan You'an, and met Bai Yutian and Xue Yunfei.

Bai Yutian said: "Liu Daxia, my little brother has a little thing I want to ask you for help, I don't know if I can speak?" ”

Liu Gaosheng said with a smile: "Bai Shaoxia, Jiang Qingqing's kindness to the old-timers who helped Zhengyuan Dart Bureau back then will always be there, as long as he can, Liu Gaosheng will not dare to resign, even if he goes to the soup." ”

Bai Yutian stretched out his hand towards a stream not far away, and said, "In this case, Mr. Liu, take a step to speak." ”

Liu Gaosheng glanced at the stream and arched his hand: "Please!" He took Pan Youan and followed behind Bai Yutian and Xue Yunfei, and walked briskly towards the stream.

When the four of them came to the stream, Bai Yutian and Xue Yunfei let the horses drink water, bolted them to the trees on the side, and sat down with Liu Gaosheng and Pan Youan, smiling at each other, waiting for the other party to speak.

Bai Yutian was unwilling to be lonely, and said: "Liu Daxia, I have already found out that on that day in Zhuxian Town, you let Ren Wuji fight with Shui Buwen, intending to use our hands to get rid of the eyeliner hidden by the government in the Dragon Slaying Society. We did you a great favor by acting according to your heart. ”

Liu Gaosheng got up and said, "Bai Shaoxia, what you said to me Liu is a little incomprehensible." ”

Bai Yutian said with a smile: "Liu Daxia, the dragon slayer will do a lot of evil in the northwest, you Zhengyuan Dart Bureau has been darts in the northwest for decades, you should know better than anyone else, why bother to pretend to be confused." ”

Liu Gaosheng glanced at Pan Youan, and Pan Youan said: "Bai Shaoxia, we have heard of the Dragon Slaying Society, but we have never had any contact, let alone pretending to be confused, I guess you are mistaken." ”

Xue Yunfei said: "Mr. Liu, Mr. Pan, we haven't known each other for a day or two, and since we dare to talk about this matter with Bai Shaoxia today, we will figure things out." Lu Xiangye already knew that the Dragon Slayer Society collaborated with the enemy to judge the Song Dynasty, and helped Li Yuanhao to cause trouble in the northwest, and it was imminent to eliminate the Dragon Slayer Society. If you think that the Zhengyuan Dart Bureau is obliged to be buried with the Dragon Slayer Society, and you are willing to bear the charge of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the Song Dynasty, even if you don't admit it. ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "Xue Zhutou, collaborating with the enemy to betray the Song, this is a big crime to exterminate the nine clans, and you can't say it at will." ”

Bai Yutian got up and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, you know how many merchants and how many lives the Dragon Slayer Society has looted in the northwest. You Zhengyuan Dart Bureau darts, travel in the northwest for so many years, almost never encountered the robbers of the dart, if it is only because the Zhengyuan Dart Bureau 'prestige' four words are easy to use, no one will believe it. ”

Xue Yunfei said: "Dragon Slayer can even betray his ancestors, and he can even want his family and country, how can he think of your good reputation in the Zhengyuan Dart Bureau." Mr. Liu, you can treat us as three-year-old children and easily fool us. But Lu Xiangye has been in charge of the Great Song Dynasty for more than ten years, and he has never seen any conspiracy and trickery, and it is absolutely impossible to fool him. ”

Liu Gaosheng glanced at Pan Youan, and Pan Youan said, "Xue Zhutou, Bai Shaoxia, what did you just say?" ”

Bai Yutian said: "The night before yesterday, Dragon Slayer sent people to sneak into the palace to steal and steal the jade seal of the current saint. ”

Pan Youan said: "There is such a thing! It's really daring, I don't know whether to live or die. ”

Bai Yutian said: "Fortunately, the thief ran into me when he sneaked out of the palace, and I chased all the way to the outskirts with curiosity. ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "Can you catch that thief?" ”

Bai Yutian said: "The man in black fled to the suburbs, thinking that he was safe, and recruited his companions who were in the suburbs to answer him, thinking of eradicating me, a nosy man who was chasing after me, on the spot. The martial arts of those six people were really powerful, and after some competition, they barely got to a draw. If it weren't for my whim, I unexpectedly attacked with a sword, cut the strap that the man in black tied around his waist, and snatched the stolen things, and the jade seal might have been taken to the northwest by them. ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "Bai Shaoxia, since the jade seal has been recovered, what else do you need me Liu to help?" ”

Bai Yutian said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, now in your Zhengyuan Dart Bureau, there should still be some dragon-slaying eagle dog minions, right?" ”

Liu Gaosheng glanced at Pan Youan, and Pan Youan replied, "There are three or five people living there." ”

Xue Yunfei said: "Pan Darthead, whether it is three or five, don't be ambiguous." ”

Pan Youan glanced at Liu Gaosheng, got a reply, and said, "Five." ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "Bai Shaoxia, Xue Zhutou, I don't know what you are asking about this?" ”

Xue Yunfei said: "Mr. Liu, you know, although the jade seal was recovered by Bai Shaoxia due to a coincidence, he can't hand it over directly." ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "That's." If it is handed over directly, once it is used by people with ulterior motives, Bai Shaoxia will not become a thief, and it will not be washed away by jumping into the Yellow River. ”

Bai Yutian said: "Don't hide it from Liu Daxia, in order to get rid of suspicion, and let Xue Zhutou naturally receive this great credit for recovering the jade seal, so that he can better benefit the people of the capital in the future, so he has to come to a farce of catching thieves and taking stolen goods." Who told those people to follow the dragon slayer to collaborate with the enemy to rebel against the Song Dynasty and kill their compatriots, which is a heinous crime. You say yes, right? ”

Xue Yunfei said: "Mr. Liu, if Bai Shaoxia treats you as an outsider, he will never tell you these heart-wrenching words. You're a smart person, you should be able to hear it. ”

Liu Gaosheng and Pan Youan glanced at each other and asked softly, "I don't know what you two want me Liu Gaosheng to do?" ”

Bai Yutian said: "I brought the jade seal, you can bring it into Zhuangzi later, and deliberately let the five people of the Dragon Slayer Society see it." They will surely steal so that they can take credit for slaying the dragon. We lay an ambush on the road to the west, and when they sneaked out of the manor and fled west, we took them all. ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "Bai Shaoxia, if it is rumored that the jade seal was stolen from my Zhengyuan Dart Bureau, then wouldn't I, Liu Gaosheng, become a thief who infiltrated the palace?" How to protect yourself. ”

Bai Yutian said: "Liu Daxia, let me ask you, what kind of person has the tightest mouth?" ”

Liu Gaosheng replied without thinking: "Naturally, it is a dead person." ”

Bai Yutian said: "Isn't this the end." Thieves are rampant, tyrannical, and stubborn, and correct the law on the spot. ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "But ......"

Xue Yunfei said: "Mr. Liu, those people from the Dragon Slaying Society have followed the Dragon Slayer to collaborate with the enemy and rebel against the Song Dynasty, which is already intolerable by the laws of the Great Song Dynasty. Let them die for theft today, it is better to bear the notoriety of traitors in the future, at least not to implicate his relatives and family. Besides, what the saint wants is to recover the jade seal, and Kaifeng Mansion wants to solve the case as soon as possible, what you want is to clear the relationship with the Dragon Slayer Society, although this is not very fair, but everyone is happy, and there is nothing to do. ”

Although the strategy is good, Liu Gaosheng thinks about it, but he still has many concerns.

Seeing this, Bai Yutian said kindly: "Mr. Liu, the reason why you are open to the Zhengyuan Dart Bureau and taken out of the team of the Dragon Slaying Society's minions and accomplices is just because you joined the Dragon Slaying Club to protect yourself, and you don't have any bad karma. If you are really afraid that the Dragon Slayer will retaliate afterwards, and you are reluctant to draw a line with the Dragon Slayer Society, and you are unwilling to do your part to exterminate the Dragon Slayer Society, then when the Dragon Slayer Society is exterminated in the future, the Zhengyuan Dart Bureau will no longer exist. I don't need to say more, you should weigh it clearly. ”

Pan You'an on the side said: "Chief dart, other things can weigh the pros and cons, but in the face of this kind of major right and wrong, even if you know that you have to suffer losses, you must move forward bravely, don't look left and right, and miss the opportunity." The brothers are still looking forward to the Zhengyuan Dart Game standing in the Central Plains for a hundred years and a thousand years, and serving it for life! ”

After thinking about it again, Liu Gaosheng clasped his fists and said: "Xue Zhutou, Bai Shaoxia, after this incident, my Zhengyuan Dart Bureau and the Dragon Slayer Club will have nothing to do with it." Before the elimination of the Dragon Slayer Society, if Liu has any difficulties, I hope that the two of you will help me resolve all the difficulties for the sake of working together today. ”

Xue Yunfei clenched his fists and arched his hand: "Mr. Liu, although I, Xue, work in the Yamen, I also know the word Xinyi that the heroes of the rivers and lakes love. In the future, if there are difficulties in the Zhengyuan Dart Bureau, it will be in justice and will not violate the laws of the Great Song Dynasty, as long as Xue does his best, he will never stand by and do what he says. ”

Bai Yutian said: "Liu Daxia, I, Bai Yutian, went north with only one purpose, which is to eliminate the Dragon Slayer Society." In the future, as long as it is related to the Dragon Slayer Society, no matter how big or small it is, I will come to help if I have a letter. ”

Liu Gaosheng said: "The kindness of the two, Liu Gaosheng will remember it in this life, and don't dare to forget each other." When the words fell, he bowed to Xue Yunfei and Bai Yutian to the end, and his affection was harmonious.

Bai Yutian and Xue Yunfei returned the courtesy: "Mr. Liu is willing to take risks to go to righteousness today, and we are sincerely grateful." ”
