Chapter Eighty-Nine: Planning
"You guys all double-check it for me, and if there's a piece of meat missing, watch out for your heads!" The county commander warned viciously.
Several officials did not dare to slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly checked it.
Half an hour passed.
The prefectural order's brow furrowed.
"Have you checked it out?" The county magistrate shouted angrily.
"County ...... Lord Prefectural Order, we've finished our inspection. ”
"Why don't you go to the doctor after the checkup, what are you rubbing?"
"Yes!"
Several people left in a panic.
There was confusion in the eyes of the county commander, he didn't know who those people were.
However, since those people are extremely strong in martial arts, and they are not Wu Song, and they don't know how to do internal strength, it is better not to provoke them.
The prefectural magistrate shook his head and continued to handle his official business.
At the same time, Hujiazhuang.
"General Wu, I wonder when you are going to lead people to exterminate the remaining bandits? I can also send people to help, those soldiers in Zhuangzi have long been hungry and thirsty, and they are shouting for justice every day, and they are impatient. ”
Hu Sanniang asked tentatively.
Hearing this, Wu Zhi took the cup in his hand, the corners of his mouth curled, and he smiled.
"There's been a lot of things lately, I don't have much free time, wait for a few days, and none of those guys who do evil will want to live."
The words are light and fluttering, but they give people a very heavy oppressive force.
When Hu Sanniang heard this, she knew that she didn't need to ask more, and the man in front of her would definitely be able to take care of everything.
At the same time, a subtle feeling rose in her heart.
Could it be that Wu Zhi is deliberately delaying time?
Then take this opportunity to create an illusion that the mountain bandits are difficult to clean up, confuse Lord Bianjing Cai's side, and he can also support him when he invites merit in the future.
Forget it, no matter how much it is, just help yourself.
At this time, Wu Zhi was talking to Wu Song beside him, and he didn't know that his mind had been completely guessed!
But even if he knew, he wouldn't care, and probably just laughed it off.
Evening.
In a courtyard somewhere in Hujiazhuang, one of the rooms was brightly lit.
"Brother, I'll go to the gambling house again tomorrow, and it just so happens that I don't need to go to the bandits, and clean up the black smoke and miasma there by the way."
"Listen to my brother, I have nothing to say!"
"Haha, as long as you have this boldness, it's enough, go to sleep, rest early."
"Then brother should go to bed as soon as possible!"
……
Early the next morning.
After the Wu brothers finished breakfast, they went straight to the gambling house hand in hand.
Although the two brothers are now celebrities in Qingfeng County, because they deliberately hide their traces, no one recognizes them, at most they think that these two people are in excellent shape.
Half an hour later, the brothers Wu Zhi and Wu Song arrived at the door of the gambling house.
The shopkeeper inside was very discerning and immediately greeted him.
"Oh, how do you have time to come over today?" The shopkeeper greeted him enthusiastically, with a smile on his face.
Wu Zhi nodded: "I came here this time to ask the shopkeeper, what has happened to the gambling house these days?" ”
"Of course something happened, early this morning, dozens of people came to make trouble!"
The shopkeeper hurriedly replied, "We are a serious place to do business here, like the two of you, each of you is a son and daughter of the rivers and lakes, and you don't follow the rules." ”
Wu Zhi smiled faintly.
"This matter is my negligence, and I hope the shopkeeper can forgive me, today our brother came here to ask for advice."
"So that's the case, that's good, I'll arrange for you to watch the seat first, and you sit down and discuss it slowly."
As he spoke, the shopkeeper led the two to a private room.
It is extraordinarily spacious, and the interior is even more luxuriously decorated, with tables, chairs, benches, vases, tea sets, and even sculptures.
"Sit down, and I'll order the kitchen to bring some food and tea."
"Good!"
After the shopkeeper left, Wu Zhi and Wu Song sat down.
The two brothers looked at each other, and they didn't say a word very tacitly, and everything was silent.
They were listening to the sounds in the hallway outside the box......
Footsteps.
"You two are really distinguished guests, this is a gambling house, ordinary people can't afford to come, this time you can actually invite two of you, it really makes the small shop shine!"
A flattering voice sounded from outside.
Immediately after, I heard the sound of the door being pushed open.
"This guest officer, do you think what we have here is still to your liking?"
A voice rang out, and a well-dressed man came in with a teapot.
"Good tea!"
"Thank you for the compliment, we have a very good thing here, you can try it."
With that, the man placed the teapot on the table.
At this time, another middle-aged man also came in with a plate of dishes.
"Shopkeeper, hurry up and put our wine and food on the table."
The man shouted.
"Huh! Come on! ”
The shopkeeper ran out with a smile on his face.
Wu Zhi and Wu Song looked at the two men.
The faces of the two were gloomy.
"Brother, that shopkeeper is so hateful, he actually looks down on us!"
Wu Song scolded resentfully, "I think this place is going to change its name!" ”
Wu Zhi also snorted coldly, and for a moment, the expression in his eyes suddenly became deep.
"It's useless to keep this kind of person."
Wu Zhizhi's words fell, and the man's face changed, but he quickly regained his composure.
He stepped forward and said respectfully: "Wu Daxia, I still have a good thing to report here." ”
"Oh?"
"Some time ago, a group of secret killers attacked our Zhuangzi, and our Zhuangzi suffered heavy losses, I don't know if you heard about it?"
"Oh?" Wu Zhi nodded, "What do you want to say?" ”
"Our boss died at the hands of those Assassins."
"What?"
Wu Zhi exclaimed, his face appearing.
"What is the origin of those assassins, and why did they attack your Zhuangzi?"
"Those assassins are no ordinary assassins, they are professionally trained killers, and their martial arts are very high."
The man replied truthfully.
Wu Zhi's eyebrows furrowed, and his face was surprised.
"Wu Daxia, you don't have to worry, the person behind those assassins should be a Jiangyang thief, but his strength is not strong, otherwise he wouldn't dare to attack us, so we will be unharmed."
"Did the assassins leave any clues?"
"Yes!"
"What clues?"
"This assassination was sent by a person named Lin Feng, this person's martial arts are extremely high, and unpredictable, not only superb martial arts, but also good at making poisons, these poisons are specially configured by special people, but if they are contaminated, they will definitely die."
After the man finished speaking, he added: "And this person's whereabouts are erratic, and his martial arts are extremely terrifying, we have sent several groups of people to look for him, but there has been no news." ”
"Hehe, I see!"
Wu Zhi sneered, his eyes flashing with a cold glint.
