"Big boss, are you going to take him with you?"
The subordinates on the side looked Ji Fushen up and down, and his expression was self-evident.
At this juncture, with such a powerless teenager, not only can he not help Zhou An, but he may also drag his feet.
"Big boss, why don't I wait here."
Ji Fushen is very self-aware, and he has no intention of proving himself in this kind of thing.
"Since it's to avenge your little vegetable seedlings, how can you do it if you don't go?" Zhou An grabbed his shoulders and led the person out of the door, "Do you remember our contact point at the foot of the mountain?" ”
"Hmm." Ji Fushen nodded, "I went back to buy, I went with Lao Zhangtou and them." ”
"Yin Qiqing is plotting against me this time, and he must cooperate with the inside and outside, if I guess correctly, his people should be installed in this stronghold at the foot of the mountain today." Therefore, when he returned, he did not go directly to the stronghold, so as not to startle the snake.
"Shall we go now?" Ji Fushen asked: "I remember that there seem to be four or five people there, could they all be the subordinates of the second master?" ”
"Yin Qiqing doesn't have so many people available, he has too many things to do today, he won't waste so many people at the bottom of the mountain, I estimate that at most one or two people over there were arranged by him."
"That'...... What does the big boss want to do? ”
"It's up to you to help me." Zhou An smiled.
"Me?" Ji Fushen's face was shocked.
"Yes, that's you."
Zhou An said and looked around in the courtyard, and found a broken hat to put on his head.
Then he pulled another rag and wrapped his long knife from head to tail.
"Try it." Zhou An stuffed the long knife wrapped in rags into Ji Fushen's arms.
Ji Fushen subconsciously hugged it, but he didn't expect this knife to be so heavy that he almost got out of his hands.
"Can you hold it?" Zhou An asked.
"Hmm." Ji Fushen nodded.
His face was clean and innocent, but what he was holding in his arms was a murder weapon stained with the blood of countless people.
Zhou An usually never felt that his knife was very big, and it wasn't until he saw its appearance when he appeared in Ji Fushen's arms that he realized for the first time that it was really a long knife.
"This knife is too noticeable for me to hold, and it looks safer for you to hold it."
"But I won't use it." Ji Fushen said that he even suspected that he might not be able to pull out one hand.
"You don't need to use it, just hold it firm." Zhou An slowly swiped the hilt of the knife with one hand, and said casually: "When I see them in a while, you help me find out the flaws among them, and I will do it." ”
"Okay." Ji Fushen replied obediently.
"Are you afraid?" Zhou An asked him.
"Don't be afraid."
He said that he was not afraid, but he secretly redeemed a shelter card in the system mall and activated it.
The two rode together to the liaison station at the foot of Fengming Mountain.
After arriving at the place, Ji Fushen entered the courtyard with a long knife wrapped in rags in his arms.
Probably afraid that he would be afraid, Zhou An quietly pinched the back of his neck when he entered the door.
The man's calloused fingertips rubbed against the boy's smooth skin, which really had a somewhat soothing effect.
Ji Fushen strode into the courtyard, and immediately found that Zhou An, who was wearing a hat, was leading the horse and following him. The distance between the two was not far, and his position had always been within Zhou An's attack range, which made him feel a lot more at ease.
"Anyone?" Ji Fushen shouted loudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, four people came out of the room.
"Huh? Isn't this Ji Gongzi? One of them walked towards Ji Fushen and said with a smile: "Didn't you say that you went out to run errands with the big boss, why did you come back today?" ”
"Why did you come back on your own?" Another person leaned over and asked.
"The big boss has gone up the mountain first, let me come over and say hello." Ji Fushen said.
As soon as his voice fell, the two of them didn't show anything unusual on their faces, as if it was normal for Zhou An to go up the mountain first. But the other two people present changed their faces at the same time after hearing this.
Zhou An, who pretended to tie the horse on the side, had been sneaking over the horse's back to observe the four of them since he entered the door.
He noticed that the two of them had just changed their faces, and they had also glanced at each other when they saw Ji Fushen......
In this way, it is self-evident which one is doing things for Yin Qiqing.
At this time, a person's eyes fell on the long knife in Ji Fushen's arms and asked, "What are you holding?" ”
"Who's that guy with you?" The other looked at Zhou An, who was a few paces away.
"Oh, this is my friend." Ji Fushen turned around and beckoned to Zhou An, and asked, "How is it?" Do you see it? ”
"Hmm." Zhou An took off the hat on his head with one hand and strode behind Ji Fushen.
Except for Ji Fushen, two of the four people present were overjoyed when they saw Zhou An, and the other two were shocked at the same time. In front of Zhou An's powerful aura, they didn't even forget to cover up, and they would turn around and run towards the house.
"I don't want to dirty the floor in the house." Zhou An raised his hand to cover Ji Fushen's eyes, and then whispered in his ear: "Hold the scabbard tightly and don't let go." ”
Ji Fushen only felt that his eyes were dark, and he subconsciously hugged the long knife in his arms.
Then, with a light blow in his arms, the long knife was pulled out of its scabbard.
Poof!
It was like the sound of a sharp blade cutting through the skin, and it was like the sound of blood bursting out of the body.
The overwhelming smell of blood followed, filling his nostrils.
Ji Fushen carefully sniffed the smell in the air, vaguely aware of what was happening.
Zhou An killed someone!
The ensuing cry of another person for mercy confirmed his suspicions.
"The big boss spares his life, and the big boss spares his life." The man barely dared to look at the corpse of his companion, and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.
However, the other two were a little confused, looking at the corpse on the ground, then at Zhou An, and then at the kneeling person on the ground, and they didn't know how to react for a while.
"You two, drag him away." Zhou An said in a deep voice.
When the two people next to him heard this, they hurriedly dragged the corpse on the ground away.
It was only at this moment that Zhou An let go of the hand that was covering Ji Fushen's eyes.
When Ji Fushen looked at the ground, he only saw a pool of blood.
Because there were no corpses, only blood, he didn't feel scared when he saw it.
The man kneeling on the ground was still begging for mercy ...... the "big boss".
Zhou An put the long knife on his neck, "Do you know why you are kept instead of him?" ”
"My subordinates don't know ......"
"Because you're sharper than he is." Zhou An smiled coldly, "A chance, to the point." ”
He didn't explain what he wanted to say to the other party, but the other party obviously knew what he should say, and he said everything he knew about Yin Qiqing's deployment to Zhou An.
Probably because he was afraid that Zhou An would be unhappy that his head would move, he added: "Big boss, you give me a chance, I can make credit for the crime and help you make a strategy in front of the second master." ”
"Who is the person who went up the mountain to spray pesticides and insects?" Zhou An asked.
"It's an old man hired by the second master in the neighborhood for money, and the insect killers sprayed are all prepared in advance by the second master. This old man should come soon, and the second master asked me to take people up the mountain with me at that time. ”
Zhou An took the back of the knife and patted him lightly on the cheek, "The person who set a trap on the road to kill me, are you familiar?" ”
"Ripe, ripe." The man was busy.
"You'll lead the way in a moment."
"Thank you, thank you."
Not long after, the old man who was invited by Yin Qiqing to spray medicine really came.
Fengming Village will organize insect removal at the turn of spring and summer every year, get some medicine powder to kill snakes, rats, insects and ants, and sprinkle it all over the village. But most of the time, this work is done by the people in the stockade themselves. This year, Zhou An just became a big boss, and before he had time to organize this matter, Yin Qiqing took the opportunity to do it.
And the reason why Yin Qiqing had to spend this time was just to poison Zhao Lu and find a reason.
Otherwise, if a person is killed by him in an unclear manner, he will not be able to convince the people in the future.
Zhou An tested the old man, and when he saw that he had no problem, he took Ji Fushen to disguise himself as the old man's helper and went up the mountain together.
"What's wrong?" On the way up the mountain, Zhou An asked Ji Shengshen.
"It's nothing, it's just a little worried."
Ji Fushen had read the original book and knew that Zhou An cleaned up Yin Qiqing in the original book a few months later.
Now that things have changed a lot, his uneasiness is not unfounded.
But he thought about it, in the original book, Yin Qiqing was finally cleared by Zhou An because of collusion with foreign enemies. Now that Zhou An has not been in power for a long time, Yin Qiqing has not had the opportunity to do so. If the other party had really colluded with foreign enemies, there would not be only two people in the stronghold at the foot of the mountain.
Thinking like this, his heart relaxed a little.
On the way up the mountain, there will be a fork in the road.
Yin Qiqing had people set up an ambush on one of the roads to plot against Zhou An.
As for the other road, it looks like a few rocks across the road, but it is actually a good road. According to the original plan, if Zhou An heard that Zhao Lu and they were poisoned and died, and he panicked when he came back, he was likely to be misled into choosing the path with traps.
"What an idiot." Zhou An commented succinctly.
Mo said that he couldn't be so careless and easily fooled, even if it was Zhao Lu and them, it was impossible to let Yin Qiqing poison them without warning.
Because someone led the way, and disguised, several people easily followed the old man to Fengming Village.
After entering the village, things are much easier, because there are people from Zhou'an everywhere.
There are not many people under Yin Qiqing who can use it, and they divide a little here and there, it's strange if it's enough!
After Zhou An entered the stockade, he was like entering a no-man's land, but Ji Fushen had been following him carefully, and was tugging at one of his sleeves, looking like a child who was afraid of getting lost with adults.
"Scared?" Zhou An asked.
Ji Fushen saw that Zhou An was aware of his small movements, and hurriedly let go of his hand, "No." ”
Zhou An took the initiative to send him a piece of his clothes, "Drag it." ”
Ji Fushen hesitated, did not refuse, and grabbed the corner of the other party's clothes again.
In fact, he did this to share his asylum card with Zhou An. The scope of protection of the asylum card is within three zhang, and all people or animals who come into contact with Ji Fushen can be sheltered.
In other words, as long as he dragged the corner of Zhou An's clothes, he could ensure that no one could hurt the other party.
Zhou An is his backer in the next few days, so he naturally has to be careful to protect ......
"I've checked in the kitchen, and everyone eats the same food, so there shouldn't be many opportunities to start from there."
"There is a steward in the village today for his birthday, and Yin Qiqing must have asked people to prepare wine."
"You mean, poisoned in wine?"
"Eight or nine is not far from ten."
Ji Fushen thought about it for a long time when he heard this, and didn't say anything more.
Soon it was time for dinner.
Their meal was a luncheon, and the reason why Yin Qiqing arranged it this way was probably because he was afraid of long nights and dreams, and wanted to solve Zhao Lu and the others first, and immediately summoned Zhou An to death.
Before the banquet, Yin Qi arrived early in the morning.
Now that Zhou An on the throne is not there, he is sitting in the middle of the crowd, and he can see that he wants to replace him.
Soon, the wine and food came up, and everyone was suddenly lively.
"The first drink, I'll do it with you." Yin Qiqing said and raised his head and drank it all.
Most of the people present were still willing to give him face, and they all drank with him.
"The second glass of wine, I salute you." Yin Qiqing said and motioned to his subordinates to pour himself wine.
Then he took a wine jar and filled it with his own hands for Zhao Lu, Xue Chengju and others.
If someone is careful, they will find that the wine he poured for Zhao Lu and others is not the same jar as the one in his bowl.
"In the past, I had a lot of disagreements with my brothers, and today I will make amends to you, hoping that our brothers can work together in the future...... It's all in the wine. Yin Qiqing said and picked up the bowl to drink.
"Wait." At this moment, Zhou An's voice suddenly came from the hearing.
Everyone followed the sound and saw Zhou An walking in from outside the hall with Ji Fushen.
Yin Qiqing looked at the two of them with a pale face, and his mood was comparable to a stormy wave.
How so?
How could Zhou An come back on this day?
"I heard everything that the second master said, and I was very moved in my heart." Zhou An walked up to Yin Qiqing and took the bowl in his hand, "Zhao Lu, give your wine to the second master, and I'll accompany him to have a drink." ”
"Okay." Hearing this, Zhao Lu hurriedly handed the wine glass to Yin Qiqing.
Zhou An knocked on the edge of his bowl, raised his head and drank the glass of wine.
Yin Qiqing didn't say a word while holding the wine bowl.
"Drink, second master, why don't you drink?" Ji Fushen asked him.
"I ......" Yin Qiqing's face was extremely ugly.
"If you don't drink it, do you want me to feed you?" Zhou An said with a smile.
Yin Qi understands that he doesn't have to act anymore after the matter has come to this point.
It is impossible for Zhou An to be kind to him.
Right now, the two of them are either you dead or I die.
So he slammed his glass on the ground......
At the moment when the wine glass hit the ground, the sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded in the air.
That's a Hidden Arrow.
The asylum card detected the killing intent before the Hidden Arrow was issued, and gave a warning in advance.
Ji Fushen didn't have time to think about it, relying on the fact that he had a shelter card, he flew forward and pounced on Zhou An.
However, Zhou An's reaction was faster than him, and he rolled on the ground with him, perfectly avoiding the several arrows that landed one after another.
Just as he hugged Ji Fushen and turned around, he didn't forget to draw a few chopsticks on the table and throw them out.
The throat of the person who released the dark arrow was pierced by three chopsticks in an instant, and the blood bubbled out like a column of water.
Ji Fushen subconsciously wanted to look up, but was held down by Zhou An.
"Don't look." Zhou An said in his ear, "It's a little unappetizing." ”
