Chapter 066: The Zhou Family Falls

The reply was a buzzing sound.

Hundreds of feathered arrows directly shot this patrol into a hornet's nest!

Inside the courtyard wall, several subordinates who were keeping vigil heard the sound of bowstrings outside, and looked at each other suspiciously.

One of them said, "Go and see." ”

A few people met and walked to the back door, opened the back door, and were about to go out.

They were greeted by several spears that stabbed them directly.

The first few people were directly stabbed in the heart.

Seeing this, the eyes of the person in the back shrank dramatically.

However, he reacted extremely quickly.

Without thinking about it, he turned around and ran inside, screaming as he ran: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attackβ€”"

Before he could finish his words, a halberd flew from behind and pinned him directly to the ground!

Blood trickled from his body.

His eyes widened and he reached out to the front, eager to crawl over.

However, countless people poured in and rushed into the Zhou family's mansion by stepping on his body.

The screams instantly filled the entire Zhou family's mansion!

Most of the family members are still asleep for weeks!

Some of the Zhou family members who had already been awakened had not had time to get dressed, and they were directly cut into several sections by the figures that rushed in!

The deepest part of the Zhou family's mansion.

Zhou Yi, the head of the Zhou family, heard the movement and slowly got up.

Sitting at the head of the bed, he closed his eyes and listened to the movement in all directions.

It took him a moment before he opened his eyes and sighed.

He stepped down from the bed and came to a porcelain vase, from which he poured a pitch-black pill.

Zhou Yi looked at the pill, his expression changed several times, and he muttered to himself: "God has given me a warning, I have been restless for the past few days, but I have never been able to find out the reason, which can be regarded as self-inflicted." ”

"It's just that, Gongjin, my father can't go down with you."

After speaking, he raised his head and swallowed the pill, then slowly walked to the side of the table, knelt down, poured a cup of herbal tea, took a sip, and sighed: "It's so bitter." ”

At that moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside.

Then, the door was slammed open.

It's the housekeeper Zhou Jiong.

The housekeeper Zhou Jiong was full of horror, and ran in and said, "Master, go quickly!" I don't know how many unknown people have killed in, and our people can't stop it at all! ”

Zhou Yi raised his head, glanced at the housekeeper Zhou Jiong, squeezed out a smile and said, "I can't go." As I just heard, the enemy is coming in from four directions. ”

"It is clear that the enemy knows us well."

"This group of enemies is either the people who are too guarded, or the people who are looking for the guard."

"We underestimated Yuan Shu."

"Yuan Shu is going to kill us today."

Butler Zhou Jiong's tears fell instantly: "Family master, if that little boy knows you-"

Zhou Yi smiled bitterly: "Nine times out of ten, life is unsatisfactory. ”

"Such an ending, although it is a bit hasty and unexpected, is also reasonable."

"Gong Jin, he'll understand."

"It's you, it's me who hurt you."

"If I wasn't greedy, or if you wouldn'tβ€”"

The housekeeper Zhou Jiong choked up and said, "Family master, I, Zhou Jiong, have never had any complaints!" ”

Footsteps outside again.

The housekeeper Zhou Jiong was a little flustered.

Zhou Yi beckoned to him calmly.

The housekeeper Zhou Jiong did not doubt that he had him, and hurriedly walked over.

As soon as he walked to Zhou Yi's side, Zhou Yi suddenly took out a dagger from his sleeve and stabbed it into the abdomen of the housekeeper Zhou Jiong.

Butler Zhou Jiong's eyes widened and he looked at Zhou Yi in disbelief.

Zhou Yi looked sad and said, "I know you can't do it." However, when it falls into the hands of the enemy, everything is left to us. You go first, and I'll come later. ”

The housekeeper Zhou Jiong staggered back a few steps, staggered, and fell straight to the ground.

Zhou Yi looked at the body of the housekeeper Zhou Jiong, and was about to stand up.

The next moment, his face suddenly distorted, and a mouthful of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth.

Zhou Yi wiped away the blood, staggered to the butler Zhou Jiong's side, bent down the pole, and slowly closed the latter's wide eyes.

At this time, four figures appeared at the door.

It's none other than Kuai Rui, Lu Yi, Lu Su and Liu Ye.

Zhou Yi heard the movement, stood up, walked back to the side of the case, and sat down on his knees.

He looked up at the four figures in front of him.

After seeing Lu Yi clearly, Zhou Yi's face was a little shocked.

However, soon, he calmed down again and said, "I didn't expect that the one who ended my Zhou family would be a small nest chief back then." ”

Lu Yi pulled out the sword on his waist and said coldly: "In the past, you killed Lu Kang Taishou, and today you will use your head to pay tribute to his old man!" ”

Zhou Yi nodded and said, "Brother Lu is a good official, a loyal minister. ”

"To be honest, I can't bear to do it."

"However, if the situation is like today, he knows that he can't do it, but he still wants to persevere."

Lu Yi scolded: "Hugh has to make excuses for himself!" ”

Zhou Yi closed his eyes and muttered, "Make excuses?" Sort of. After getting off the Yellow Spring, I will go to Brother Lu again and make amends to him. In the next life, make him cows and horses. ”

Black blood was constantly spilling from the corners of his mouth.

Lu Yi looked at this scene, took a deep breath, and still inserted the sword back into the scabbard and said, "You are also a good man, I will give you a whole corpse today." ”

Zhou Yi did not respond to him again.

Lu Yi, Kuai Rui, Lu Su and Liu Ye didn't make any more moves, just watched this scene quietly.

After a while, when the black blood stopped overflowing, Lu Yi stepped forward and touched the carotid artery of the next week.

There was no movement anymore.

Lu Yi looked down at Zhou Yi's corpse and said: "Although you say revenge, you do have the demeanor of the head of the family, let's go!" ”

Kuai Rui stepped forward, pulled out his saber and said, "I want to take his head, this is what the marshal explained." ”

Lu Su stopped him and said, "The person is dead, give him dignity!" ”

Liu Ye said: "What does the big marshal want others to do? Does what I say count? ”

Kuai Rui glanced at Liu Ye.

When you go to Jingzhou in the future, you will have to rely on him.

Kuai Rui could only return the sword into the sheath and said, "Okay! ”

The four of them left the house together.

The entire Zhou family mansion began to burn out everywhere.

Dozens of people surrounded them with torches.

Kuai Rui snorted.

The crowd rushed into the house and set it on fire.

Lu Yi and the others withdrew from the Zhou family's mansion and headed towards the west gate of the city.

Lu Yi turned back as he walked.

The huge Zhou family, the home of the second and third dukes, was now destroyed in the fire.

The movements of the Zhou family also attracted the attention of other people in Shu County early.

However, no one dared to come out.

It wasn't until dawn the next day, when the Zhou family was almost burned down, that they dared to come out and gather around the Zhou family's mansion, one by one with emotion on their faces.

"Even the Zhou family has suffered like this!"

"I wonder who did it?"

"Heard that the enemy broke in through the west gate of the city? There was also a big battle with the defenders, killing and wounding hundreds of defenders. ”

"It's too arrogant!"

At this time, Lu Yi, Lu Su and Liu Ye returned to Chaohu with the army.

Zheng Bao had already led people to greet him.

Kuai Rui took a step forward and said, "Dashuai, the Zhou family is completely gone." ”

Zheng Bao laughed and said to Lu Yi: "Lu Envoy, you did a great job!" ”

Hugging Lu Yi's shoulders, Zheng Bao said, "Let's go, I've already set up a banquet for you." Wait a minute, have a good meal. Tomorrow, I will lead the army to Shu County and take over the post of Lujiang Taishou! ”
