Chapter 142: One after another
Zibo Ju.
3rd floor corridor.
"That's right, the other party's methods are cruel, not only robbing the goods, but also killing people!"
"And before the killing, I reported to my family, and I always felt that there was something wrong with this matter."
Xiao Hongxing nodded and said thoughtfully.
"It's not that there's something wrong, it's that there's something wrong!"
Li Wuji snorted coldly and said in a deep voice.
At that time, in order to cover up the fact that the mission was robbed and killed by mountain bandits, the Jinling army would never dare to disobey the yin, so at this time in Jinling City, there could be no mountain bandits entrenched!
The only possibility is that someone pretended to be a mountain bandit and robbed Xiao Hongxing's goods, and the mastermind behind this scene, without thinking about it, had already guessed that the Xiao family did it!
As for whether it is Xiao Duqiu or Yun Baining, you will know at a glance!
"What do you mean, this matter was originally aimed at me?"
Xiao Hongxing hesitated for a moment, and seemed to understand all of a sudden.
"Except for the people in the Xiao family's big house, there will be no one else!"
Li Wuji snorted coldly and said lightly.
Hearing Li Wuji say this, Xiao Hongxing couldn't help frowning, clenched his fists, and a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.
"You should have come to me as soon as possible, why do you see me so much every time? As I said, we are friends. ”
Li Wuji sighed and said with some reproach.
He really regards Xiao Hongxing as a friend, although he also wants to control the Xiao family through Xiao Hongxing, but it is definitely not a use, just a mutual achievement.
"I'm sorry Childe, I didn't think about it completely, and I originally thought that I could recover the lost property through the capital guard."
Xiao Hongxing apologized to himself and said helplessly.
"You went to the capital camp to report to the official?"
Li Wuji frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"yes, what's wrong?"
Xiao Hongxing nodded, looked at Li Wuji, who was frowning, and asked with some doubts.
Without waiting for Li Wuji to answer, suddenly there was a rush of footsteps, and a gambling house guy rushed up the stairs quickly and came close to Wu Ji.
"Childe, it's not good, the gambling house has been smashed!"
The guy said panting, wiping the sweat from his forehead.
"What's going on?! Even-out your breath and talk about it! ”
Cao Zi'an frowned and shouted in a deep voice.
"An old man with a group of people suddenly broke into the gambling house and threatened to let Gongzi go to see him in person, and his attitude was extremely arrogant!"
"Our people argued with each other for a few words, due to the chaos at the scene, the two sides moved, the other party injured more than a dozen of us, and two brothers were directly disabled!"
"The other party still refuses to give up, clamoring to see the son, and the subordinates have to come to report the son!"
The guy gasped for breath and told the story of what was happening in the gambling house in one breath.
Hearing the guy's words, Li Wuji and Cao Zi'an both changed their faces.
"Could it be someone from the Lingyao Sword Sect?!"
Cao Zi'an said with a solemn face.
Hearing Cao Zi'an's words, Li Wuji's brows furrowed even deeper, hesitated for a moment, and turned around to go back to say goodbye to King Lin.
"Don't pay attention to this king, let's go quickly!"
But as soon as Li Wuji turned around, he saw that Li Yuan had appeared at the door of the box without knowing when, looked at him and said.
"I'm sorry Lord Wang, I'm afraid I can't accompany you today."
Li Wuji hugged his fists and said embarrassedly.
"It's a big deal, and there's an opportunity to drink!"
"Childe, this king doesn't know how you offended the Lingyao Sword Sect, but if it's really them, it's better to deal with it carefully."
Li Yuan looked at Li Wuji and said earnestly.
Li Wuji abolished the matter of the cultivation of the great disciples of the Lingyao Sword Sect, and the news was blocked by Li Jingzhen early in the morning, so there were very few people who knew about it.
"Thank you for your advice."
Li Wuji bowed and said gratefully.
"His business, you do it, you should know how to do it!"
Li Wuji turned around and pointed at Xiao Hongxing, said a word to Cao Zi'an, and then walked quickly downstairs.
"Childe?!"
Cao Zi'an was stunned for a moment, his face was worried, the Lingyao Sword Sect came to the door, he couldn't rest assured, he planned to go back with Li Wuji to deal with it, how could he bother with other things.
"It's an order!"
But he left a word without looking back, and he quickly left Zibo with Lu Yuan.
Cao Zi'an had no choice but to agree.
Xiao Hongxing didn't understand what was going on, and he had already stayed where he was.
After Li Yuanmu saw Li Wuji leave, he pondered for a moment, and then left, his face solemn.
…
Las vegas.
In the hall on the first floor, there were more than a dozen people on the ground, all of them with injuries, and two of them were seriously injured and had fallen unconscious.
The rest of the men surrounded a group of people, staring at each other, their faces full of anger, but no one dared to make a move easily.
A group of gamblers had already hid in the corner, looking panicked, and they didn't even have time to take away the money on the table.
"Where's Childe Wuji?! Let him come to me at once! ”
"Don't show up yourself, let the little one come out to top! Could it be that you want to be a turtle with a shrunken head?! ”
An old man at the head swept his gaze over the faces of everyone present and shouted loudly.
It was the second elder of the Lingyao Sword Sect, Xiong Guanghe!
Hearing Xiong Guanghe's arrogant words, the guys in the gambling house dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, and everyone remembered the conflict just now, knowing that they were not the opponents of the other party.
"If he doesn't show up again, I'll smash this gambling house!"
Seeing that no one responded to him, Xiong Guanghe frowned, raised his voice, and shouted again.
"Your Excellency, what a big breath!"
At this moment, a cold voice sounded, and Pang Xiaoxiao, who had just rushed over from the first floor of the world, slowly walked in from the door, without a trace of expression on his face.
"Who are you?!"
When Xiong Guanghe heard the words, he hurriedly turned around to look, but when he saw that only Pang Xiaoxiao walked in with a maid, he couldn't help frowning and asked in a deep voice.
"Who is Your Excellency?! Why are you here to make trouble?! ”
Pang Xiaoxiao squinted and glanced Xiong Guanghe up and down, and asked contemptuously.
With the appearance of Pang Xiaoxiao, the guys present also suddenly had a backbone, breathed a sigh of relief, and saluted Pang Xiaoxiao one after another.
"Send the injured to the hospital for treatment first."
Pang Xiaoxiao glanced at the dozen or so guys who fell to the ground, frowned and said.
The men agreed, and immediately someone began to carry the companions on the ground out of the gambling house, brought in a carriage, and quickly sent them to the infirmary.
"The person the old man is looking for is Wuji Gongzi! Don't talk nonsense with you woman! Let him come to me right away! The old man has something to blame him! ”
Xiong Guanghe glanced at Pang Xiaoxiao, whose identity was not simple at first glance, paused, and said in a deep voice.
"I'm afraid it's not Your Excellency who will be held accountable now! In broad daylight, they trespassed into our gambling house and injured so many of us! What do you want?! Do you think there is no royal law in this capital?! ”
Pang Xiaoxiao was neither humble nor arrogant, looked at Xiong Guanghe coldly, and said dissatisfiedly.
"Presumptuous! It was your people who made the first move..."
Xiong Guanghe's eyes widened and he shouted.
"I think you're presumptuous! trespassing on other people's territory, do you let it go?! ”
"What did Your Excellency just say, what do you mean not to talk nonsense with my woman?! Now it's feminism! The Ninety-Five is also a woman's body, do you mean to look down on women and the empress?! ”
Pang Xiaoxiao directly interrupted Xiong Guanghe's words, word by word, and asked step by step.
Facing Pang Xiaoxiao's series of questions, Xiong Guanghe's expression stiffened, and he was speechless for a while.
"Why don't you speak?! Wasn't it quite arrogant just now?! ”
Pang Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and asked again.
She seemed to be petite and weak, but suddenly she was so domineering that even the gambling house guys on the side were dumbfounded.
"The old man is too lazy to talk nonsense with you, let Wuji Gongzi come out!"
Xiong Guanghe waved his hand, diverted the topic, and continued to shout loudly.
"You know that Gongzi is not here, but you have been shouting here, since you claim to be looking for Gongzi to be held accountable, why don't you leave Anhou Mansion?"
"Don't you dare?!"
"If you don't dare, why pretend to be aggressive here?!"
Pang Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and asked with disdain.
Looking at Pang Xiaoxiao, who did not give an inch, Xiong Guanghe was completely speechless, his eyes were gradually filled with anger, he gritted his teeth, and he almost couldn't help but move!
But at this moment, footsteps sounded at the door, and Li Wuji slowly walked in with Lu Yuan.
Seeing Li Wuji appear, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief again, and originally planned to salute, but was stopped by Li Wuji waving his hand.
After noticing the abnormality, Xiong Guanghe turned to look at Li Wuji, who was walking in from the door, frowned slightly, and showed a trace of doubt on his face...
