Boss Hu's movements are fast, and every minute and every second is crucial to him now.

As he directed his men to clean up the scene, he pondered how to make up for the fatal mistake.

Lan Shizi is not a person who likes to listen to nonsense, everything has to look at actions and results.

In a few moments, the site was cleaned up as if nothing had happened.

But everything is clear, this is only a superficial calm. The change of a force is not much different from the rise and fall of a dynasty, and the waves in the secret are just beginning......

At the same time, Lan Shizi had returned to his mansion.

He sat in the study, playing with a jade pendant in his hand, no expression could be seen on his face, but he was thinking about what had just happened in his heart.

Those big men are not weak, and they have a clear purpose.

In the middle of last night, when he received the business deed with Mrs. Liu's signature from Boss Hu, he had already thought that such a thing would happen, and he didn't think it was strange.

He was amazed at how quickly these people could act!

From the middle of the night to just now, that is, after eating and drinking, they can arrange it so tightly and properly.

If I had given some more time, I don't know how much of a movement these remnants would make.

In short, this matter will never end there.

As I pondered, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

Lan Shizi said lightly.

Boss Hu walked in with a few of his subordinates.

As soon as they entered the door, they knelt on the ground and said in unison:

"Master forgiveness!"

Lan Shizi glanced at them, then pointed to the chair next to him:

"Get up and speak."

Boss Hu and the others stood up tremblingly, but they didn't dare to sit down.

Lan Shizi didn't force them, and asked directly:

"What's up?"

Boss Hu hurriedly said:

"Back to the master, those people were sent by Madame Liu."

"Mrs. Liu?"

Lan Shizi frowned.

"She's going to do it to me?"

Boss Hu shook his head and said:

"I don't know the little ones. But the little ones have already checked, and those people are all diehards of Mrs. Liu. After Mrs. Liu was kicked out of the dry city by her master, she has always held a grudge and wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge. This time, she should be trying to capture your master alive and use it to blackmail ......"

Lan Shizi sneered.

Boss Hu didn't know what the master's attitude meant, so he had to lower his head and didn't dare to answer.

Lan Shizi was silent for a while, and then said:

"And what are you going to do?"

Boss Hu's heart trembled, and he hurriedly said:

"The little one is going to arrest Mrs. Liu, and then let the master dispose of it!"

Lan Shizi was noncommittal, slapped the jade pendant in his hand a few times, and said:

"Do whatever you want. Get done early, and you can catch up for dinner at noon! ”

Boss Hu was like an amnesty, and hurriedly retreated with his subordinates.

The reason why he was able to save his life this time was entirely because Lan Shizi still needed to deal with Mrs. Liu by himself.

He must arrest Mrs. Liu as soon as possible in order to completely wash away his sins.

In any case, it was too big this time...... Although those people can't hurt Lan Shizi in the slightest, they will make Lan Shizi shake his ability.

Once you lose the trust of your superiors, you will often end up badly......

For this reason, Boss Hu also went to the mansion of the city patrol manager and gave him a generous gift.

Even with the current situation in Zhenhai City, the so-called city patrol manager has already existed in name only, but the work of face still has to be done.

There has been such a big mistake in the matter for which I am responsible, and now we must overcome all difficulties and abandon all interference.

As for the city patrol manager, he has long been happy to be idle

After receiving the gift from Boss Hu, he immediately accepted it boldly.

As long as things are done secretly, and there are no big waves on the street, he will turn a blind eye.

With the tacit approval of the city patrol manager, Boss Hu was reassured.

He immediately gathered a group of his most capable subordinates and laid out a detailed plan for the capture of Madame Liu.

In addition to the dry market, Mrs. Liu's property also includes the inn, the cloth village, and the gambling house.

These places are placed on the bright side, and Boss Hu doesn't think about them at all.

There are still three caves in the cunning rabbit, not to mention Mrs. Liu, who has been in Zhenhai City for more than ten years.

What is invisible, what is unknown to ordinary people, is the most crucial place.

In Zhenhai City, even before the arrival of the Dragon Sail Society, various forces survived at the same time.

Each of these forces has its own information channels, and they all know some secrets that have not been made public.

Ever since Boss Hu was taken under Lan Shizi and got the order to annex Dry City, he began to spare no effort to collect all kinds of information about Mrs. Liu.

It is no exaggeration to say that except for the time when she sleeps, there is no one next to her, and the rest of the time, including what he eats at each of the three meals a day, who he meets, and what he says, he basically knows it clearly!

It is this pervasive ability that gives him the ability to be comfortable no matter where he is!

According to the accumulation over the years, Boss Hu knew that Mrs. Liu also had a remote courtyard in the south of the city.

Cloth villages, inns, gambling houses, in Boss Hu's judgment, Mrs. Liu will never go back, so this courtyard should be her hiding place at the moment.

A dozen of the best men.

Each was armed with a strong bow and a crossbow and a hundred steel knives.

To be on the safe side, he also deliberately prepared a team of horses so that he could quickly pursue or evacuate if necessary.

After everything was ready, Boss Hu quietly left Lan Shizi's house with his subordinates and went straight to the south of the city.

It was the morning of the day, and the street was full of pedestrians, dressed in ordinary clothes, and mingled in the crowd, without attracting too much attention, so they soon came to the vicinity of the house in the south of the city.

They didn't do it right away, but first looked around to make sure there was nothing unusual before quietly approaching the house.

The door of the house was closed, and no one seemed to be inside.

Lao Jianghu would not be deceived by such a clumsy trick, Boss Hu signaled his subordinates to get ready, and then kicked the door open suddenly, and then rushed in first.

The men followed, quickly surrounding the house.

But they didn't find any trace of Mrs. Liu......

The courtyard was empty, except for some simple furniture that was in line with Mrs. Liu's habits and a lot of miscellaneous items piled up in the corners.

Boss Hu's heart sank, and he immediately ordered his subordinates to retreat, but it was too late......

The sound of breaking the air came from all directions.

When the rain of swords fell, Boss Hu and the others just withdrew from the house, exposed to broad daylight.

Behind the surrounding eaves, a dense crowd suddenly appeared, and the archers with hard bows, Boss Hu's subordinates were caught off guard, and most of them were killed and wounded immediately!

Immediately afterwards, a group of big men with sharp blades came out of the tunnel dug in advance in the courtyard and surrounded Boss Hu and others.

Although his men are all elite men, it is still extremely difficult to deal with such a sudden attack......

Boss Hu's eyes were split, and he fought back, trying to rush out of a way to live, but the number of people on the other side was too many, and all of them were outlaws, with the mentality of ending up together, and for a while the two sides fell into a fierce fight, like dogs and teeth, unable to hold each other.

The sword and sword, the quicksand is all over the sky.

People kept falling, and the leaching blood stained the ground red.

Boss Hu rushed left and right, resisting and looking for an opportunity to break through.

But where will the other party let him escape easily?

Another sound of breaking the sky sounded.

A feather arrow came at an extremely tricky angle, hitting the shoulder socket on the left side of Boss Hu.

Just as he was about to despair, he suddenly heard a crisp whip.

Immediately after, a vigorous figure fell from the sky and landed beside him.

Boss Hu looked at it fixedly, and it turned out to be another henchman of his master Lan Shizi.

He was holding a long whip in his hand, and it was he who had just struck the ground with it, making a crisp sound.

This person was sent by Lan Shizi, and he has been quietly following behind since Boss Hu and others rushed to the south of the city.

After they rushed into the hospital, the man lurked nearby, watching what happened.

When he heard movement in the courtyard just now, he immediately realized that the situation was not right, so he immediately rushed to help.

Seeing that Boss Hu was injured, he immediately waved his long whip and joined the battle group.

The long whip danced in the air like a spirit snake, whistling in gusts of wind.

Each whip was extremely accurate, making the enemies besieging Boss Hu restrained one after another.

This henchman of Lan Shizi is not only good at whipping, but also proficient in using the terrain and environment.

He can always appear by Boss Hu's side at critical moments to block deadly attacks for him.

Boss Hu had to cut off the arrow shaft with a knife to regain his spirits!

The knife technique is wide open and closed, and each knife has the momentum of wind and thunder, even if he is seriously injured, he is still extremely brave.

Both sides are already red-eyed.

Life is at stake, Boss Hu and his subordinates don't seem to know fatigue.

Every rush.

Every swing of the knife.

All with the splash of blood and the loss of life!

Time seems to slow down.

Boss Hu can clearly feel every drop of sweat, every ray of sunshine, and every tremor of sword intersection.

All these made him cherish his life even more, and they also inspired him to keep wielding the knife!

Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and Boss Hu saw that the enemy's blade was stabbing at his heart.

He didn't have time to dodge, so he could only swing his sword with all his strength to block.

I only heard a loud sound of "dang", two steel knives collided in the air, and sparks splashed everywhere.

Boss Hu felt a numbness in his arm, and only half of the knife in his hand was left......

Seeing this, the man brandished a long whip, like a tiger descending the mountain, invincible in the enemy group, desperately approaching Boss Hu.

The whip in his hand seemed to turn into countless tentacles, tightly wrapping around the enemy, making them unable to move.

In this way, the enemy began to gradually collapse...... The originally tight offensive was shattered by the shadow of the whip and the light of the sword.

By the time the last enemy fell, Boss Hu and his men were exhausted and didn't even have the strength to speak.

Boss Hu held down the still bubbling wound with one hand, and walked towards the man, his eyes full of gratitude.

If he hadn't come to support in time, he and his brother would have died in Huangquan.

"You don't have to thank me, it's all for the master!"

This man is not good at words, and he does not smile.

Boss Hu has been following Lan Shizi for a long time, but he has the impression that what this person said adds up to only two hands.

After a simple rest and bandaging of the wound, Boss Hu ordered his subordinates to turn the entire mansion upside down.

The tunnels were also destroyed, and after the last man came out, they collapsed completely.

Boss Hu began to feel a little uneasy in his heart......

He knew that Madame Liu couldn't reveal her hiding place so easily, but he didn't know where she had gone.

Could it be true that after taking the money, he immediately left Zhenhai City?

If this is the case, it means that he has completely let go of the drought market and the previous ten years, so why should he send people to attack and kill again?

The silence was broken by the sound of horses' hooves.

The fast horse galloped from the end of the street, and the man on horseback was dressed in tight black, with a long sword stuck diagonally in his back, mysterious and vigorous.

Boss Hu and the others immediately went on guard, holding weapons in their hands, staring at this person, not knowing whether this uninvited guest was friend or foe.

This person stopped in front of the house, turned over and dismounted neatly, and walked straight to Boss Hu.

He took off the hat from his head, revealing a young and handsome face with a sharp glint in his eyes.

"Boss Hu, it's been a long time."

The young man said with a smile, a hint of banter in his voice.

Boss Hu was stunned, he didn't know this young man,

"Who are you?"

Boss Hu asked in a deep voice, holding the steel knife in his hand tightly.

The young man chuckled and shook his head:

"Boss Hu doesn't have to be nervous, I'm not Mrs. Liu's person. Instead, I'm here to help you. ”

"Help me?"

Boss Hu looked at the young man suspiciously.

"We don't know each other, why are you helping me?"

The young man smiled mysteriously:

"Because our enemies are the same. However, I don't know where Mrs. Liu is, but she left something behind, which may be useful to Boss Hu. ”

As he spoke, he took out a delicate small wooden box from his arms and handed it to Boss Hu.

Boss Hu took the wooden box and opened it to see that there was a seal inside, with a circle of begonia flowers engraved on it, and the word "willow" in the middle.

"This is Mrs. Liu's private seal?"

Boss Hu asked in surprise.

The young man nodded:

"Exactly. Mrs. Liu estimated that she was in a hurry and didn't have time to take the seal with her. Boss Hu can use it to deal with the remnants of Mrs. Liu, or to give an account to your master, Lan Shizi. ”

Boss Hu looked at the seal and was in a hurry.

This seal is indeed a good thing, at least it can get him out of the current predicament for a while. Otherwise, it can't be said that they pounced on it with such fanfare and finally returned empty-handed......

However, he did not fully believe the young man who suddenly appeared.

When the wind and rain are shaking, people's hearts are more unpredictable.

"Why are you helping me?"

After pondering for a moment, Boss Hu decided to ask again.

The young man laughed:

"Boss Hu is really cautious. To tell you the truth, I also have a grudge against Mrs. Liu, and I am naturally happy that she is unlucky. As for the purpose, I just want to make friends with Boss Hu, and maybe there will be opportunities to cooperate in the future. Boss Hu doesn't like to talk about cooperation with people the most? ”

Boss Hu pondered for a moment, feeling that although the young man in front of him was of unknown origin, he did not seem to have malicious intentions.

"Well, I'll trust you for now. I have accepted this seal, and I will cooperate with you if I have the opportunity in the future. ”

The young man nodded with satisfaction: "Boss Hu is quick to talk, so I'll leave first." ”

So saying, he put on his hat, turned on his horse, and whipped away.

Boss Hu politely said goodbye, and their thoughts were in their own stomachs.

After returning to Lan Shizi's house with his subordinates, Boss Hu handed over Mrs. Liu's private seal to Lan Shizi.

Lan Shizi looked at the seal in his hand and praised it for the first time.

Boss Hu's heart was relieved, this hurdle can be regarded as over......

As for the future......

People whose heads hang over the hilt of a knife are not qualified to think about things for so long, so it is better to think about where to drink tonight and call a few girls to accompany them.

"What did you say that young man came from?"

Lan Shizi asked suddenly, pulling Boss Hu's thoughts back.

Boss Hu was stunned for a moment, and then replied:

"The small ones are not clear. He claimed to have a grudge against Mrs. Liu, so he came to help. ”

Lan Shizi nodded and didn't say anything more.

In his opinion, no matter who this young man was, as long as he didn't come to provoke himself.

Besides, he had more important things to do, and he didn't have time to bother with them.

Lan Shizi pondered for a moment, then stood up and walked to the desk in the study. He spread out a fine piece of paper, dipped his pen in ink, and wrote an invitation himself.

Boss Hu stood aside, not daring to disturb.

When your host writes the invitation in person, there must be something important to do.

After a while, Lan Shizi finished writing the invitation, handed it to Boss Hu, and said:

"Go to the best framing shop in the city and frame this invitation beautifully, and then you go and give it to Zhao Rang in person."
