Chapter Ninety-Three, Even if one person is alive, it is hope
"Drivingββ! Driving ββ! Driving ββ! β
On the way to the imperial capital in the south, a figure with a bag on his back was galloping past, and behind the figure, several figures on horseback followed closely behind.
He is a scout under Lin Duci who is specially responsible for delivering messages, named Sun Taoli, and at this moment he leads important letters to report to the imperial capital.
"Driving ββ!"
The shouts came one after another, and the people behind seemed to be hyenas staring at their prey, biting the people in front of them tightly, and they were bound to cut the people in front of them under their horses.
The eyes of the fleeing people in front of them were staring at the road ahead, their attention was highly concentrated, all their senses were maximized, and everything they could see was within the scope of Sun Taoli's thinking.
"Woooo
The deadly arrow shot from Sun Taoli's back.
He didn't have time to look behind him, and with his high-intensity perception, he dodged the deadly arrows left and right.
This was followed by "Boom-"
He dodged sideways to the left, pressed down to dodge the top, but couldn't dodge the right again.
One of the arrows hit him firmly in the right leg with a "poof".
Sun Taoli snorted.
But his overall figure did not move at all, and he always maintained a state of speeding at high speed.
The man behind him was in hot pursuit, and when he saw that he couldn't shoot people, he aimed at the horses.
The third time, "Boom, Boomβ"
I only heard the horse look up to the sky, "Wooββ! With a bang, the two front legs were raised high, and the figure on the horse fell backwards almost parallel to the ground.
The horse was hit by two arrows in its hind legs, and it was impossible for him to continue running, so the man jumped up on the horse's back!
Sun Taoli exerted all his light skills and flew in the direction of the deepest part of the woods.
And the few people who pursued him, seeing him running to a place where there was no road, also gave up their sycophants, and chased in the direction of the other party's escape.
The figure of the backpack did not dare to delay, and kept fleeing in the woods when he saw the direction.
In the bag, there are the charges of various officials in the south that Lin Duci sorted out day and night, and the most complete relationship between the characters in Liu Changpeng's entire network that I know so far.
Sun Taoli knew that he had a heavy responsibility, so no matter what, even if he died, he had to pass the news to the imperial capital.
He used all the concealment available in the woods, but his pursuers were not vegetarians, and they were soon found.
He split the arrow that had hit him in the leg in half so that he could escape.
And he didn't dare to pull out the whole arrow, the smell of blood was too easy to reveal his whereabouts.
"Quick! There he is! As soon as the people behind discovered Sun Taoli's trace, they suddenly accelerated and drew their swords and stabbed him.
Sun Taoli turned around and drew his sword to resist.
During the fight between the two, the killer's accomplices rushed over.
Can't escape!
Since you can't escape, let's fight to the death!
Kill one to earn, kill two to earn blood!
As a result, Sun Taoli's heart was horizontal, barefoot was not afraid of wearing shoes, and all the internal forces and blood in his body broke out in an unprecedented state.
For a while, several people couldn't kill him, and under the back and forth fighting, some people were killed by him.
However, the other party was also a well-trained killer after all, and finally, Sun Taoli fell on the legs of several people.
The skills are not as good as others, Sun Taoli closed his eyes and decided to accept the fate of death.
It's just that the next moment he heard the sound of "poof, puff, puff" three times to the ground.
He's not dead.
Sun Taoli opened her eyes, and there was a father and daughter in front of her.
The father carried a basket of herbs behind his back and his daughter in one hand, and the two were looking at him.
"Thank you...... Thank you for saving me. Sun Taoli gasped, with gratitude for escaping death, and said hard.
"Why did they kill you?" The man asked.
"Vendetta."
The man didn't ask any more, he looked at Sun Taoli's injuries.
"It hurts when you pull out the arrow, you bear with it." The man said.
"Thank you." Sun Taoli nodded.
This man knocked the killer to the ground in three or two clicks, obviously not an ordinary person, since the other party is willing to save himself, he has no need to excuse himself.
With a "whoa," the arrow pulled away from his right leg with a splash of blood.
He was in a cold sweat, but he still didn't make a sound.
Immediately, the man crouched down and took the herbs from the basket and applied them directly to his legs.
Suddenly, a coolness came from the wound in his leg.
"Thank you very much." Sun Taoli gritted his teeth and said.
"It doesn't matter."
As he spoke, the man took out a bandage from under the basket and dressed the wound on his leg very skillfully.
"You're a doctor?" Sun Taoli couldn't help asking.
"It's not." The man said lightly.
After bandaging, the man got up.
"If you don't die, the wound will scab over in ten days."
With that, the man turned around and left with the girl.
Before leaving, the girl glanced at Sun Taoli and turned her head to look at her father.
"Daddy, why did you save him?" The girl's childish voice came from the front.
"Hmm...... Why? The man seemed to think, "Maybe it's because of itchy hands?" β
"Itchy hands?" The girl didn't understand what her father was saying, so she spread out the man's big hand, put her little hand on it, and bent her fingers and scratched it on her palm.
"Yan'er tickles Daddy."
"Hahaha." The man smiled and picked up the girl, "Thank you, Yan'er." Let's go. β
The voices of the father and daughter drifted apart.
And Sun Taoli, who was resting, watched the backs of his father and daughter leave.
This father and daughter are very strange, the father obviously has a wonderful rejuvenation technique but says that he is not a doctor, and the daughter does not change her face in the face of corpses and herself full of blood.
Professional habits made him have to think more, but at this moment he didn't have time to do too much analysis.
After the father and daughter walked away, Sun Taoli found a corpse about the same size as himself, changed his clothes with the clothes of the corpse, and after disposing of the other corpses, he hurriedly left the woods with heavy steps.
Spring Breeze City.
During this time, Lin Duci did what he said, listened to and recorded every unjust, false and wrongful case said by every citizen, arrested the officials of the traitor section one by one, and used his Shang Fang sword to cut off his head in front of everyone.
According to the records of the main book, in the past 10 days alone, Lin and other officials handled 300 cases, large and small, and arrested 20 officials of various types.
At the entrance of the yamen, there was a sign as high as the head of the door, written in red and black, on which the names of the officials who had been killed by Lin Duci in recent days and their names were clearly written.
Among them, there are ten seventh-grade officials, five sixth-grade officials, four fifth-grade officials, and one first-grade official.
For a time, Lin Duci's reputation here reached its peak.
And the people who were sent to kill him never stopped, and their strength was higher than the other, and even people from the famous killer organization on the rivers and lakes appeared.
When the killers have gone and never returned, the other party gradually realizes that Lin Duci still has a means to save his life.
The water bandits were the first to be unhappy, all of them had died in the past few days, but the people in the government were all fine, why?
Their family's Chai Dashan hasn't been redeemed yet!
Therefore, the bandits refused to be pawns of the Liu family.
The confrontation between Lin Duci and Changpeng Liu has been put on the surface, and the security measures of the entire Tang Mansion have been repeatedly upgraded, and Shao Xingyue has even sent someone to take charge of the security of the Tang Mansion.
Everything seems to be in full swing and moving in a good direction.
But Changpeng Liu never came forward.
It was as if all this was like a family wine to him.
The other party's appearance of controlling the overall situation and winning in his hands cast a shadow on Shen Qi and his party.
And this layer didn't shroud for long, and the other party told Shen Qi and the others the answer in a tough attitude.
In the early morning of this day, the sky was just dawning, and the uncle who played the watch was ready to finish the last gong and prepare to go home to rest.
In the past few days, the uncle has passed by the Qincha Yamen every day, and today he is the same as usual, but this time, when he passed by the gate of the Qincha Mansion, he actually saw four corpses!
The uncle was so frightened that his soul was gone, and when he returned to consciousness, he suddenly screamed, and then he was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, not daring to move.
The uncle's shout pierced the silent sky of Spring Breeze City.
Lin Duci naturally heard the movement.
After he hurried to the door of the mansion, his face suddenly turned pale.
I saw that there were four corpses hanging on the top of the yamen of the Qincha Mansion, and at the feet of the four corpses were dead carrier pigeons, and even the letter was tied to the pigeon's leg without moving a bit.
The people and officials who were originally about to walk into the Qincha Yamen and expose all kinds of crimes to Lin Duci saw this scene and subconsciously stopped.
As Lin Duci collected more and more crimes of different people and different official ranks, a few days ago, he sorted out the evidence of the crime overnight and handed it over to several people to send to the imperial capital.
At this time, the four corpses hanging at the door of his chacha were the people in charge of delivering the letter.
Including the letters he sent out with the flying pigeon.
These people and letters, one by one, are all neatly placed in front of Lin Duci, and Lin Duci understands.
No wonder Changpeng Liu has not come forward, because he is not worried at all.
This is his territory, and no matter what Lin Duci does, no news can get out.
This is Changpeng Liu's confidence.
"Put everyone down, and clean up the door of the yamen." Lin Duci ordered.
No matter how they are organized, these four bright corpses are still like a basin of ice water falling from the sky, extinguishing everyone's enthusiasm and hope for the future.
Even if a lot of officials have died at this moment, but if the officials die, they can be reappointed, and who knows what kind of people the newly appointed officials will be?
And the thin-looking Lord Qincha in front of him, can he live to see the new official appear?
Some people looked up at the sky, it was obviously a sunny day, but they always felt that there was a layer of haze hanging over the sky.
The trappers cut the ropes that hung the corpses one by one, and judging from the wounds, the deceased had received various sword wounds and knife wounds in front of him, as well as arrows.
One by one, Lin Dusk draped the shrouds over them.
He remembered the names of each of them.
Until the time when Lin Dusk left the last person.
It's a face he doesn't even recognize!
Lin Duci's pupils shrank slightly, and then she returned to her grief and resentment.
He can't let others see the flaws.
Of the four bodies, there was one body he did not recognize.
This means that this person escaped the fate of being hunted down.
He remembered that this person's name was Sun Taoli, and he was a royal officer who had long and hidden his whereabouts.
Lin Dusk secretly settled down.
Ran well.
As long as one person escapes, all these things he does are not in vain.
He stared at these dead people, his eyes glowing with reluctance and hatred, and his eyes gradually turned red.
Lin Duci took a deep breath, suppressed the reddened corners of his eyes, and bit his upper and lower lip flaps tightly, as if he was doing great forbearance.
He spun his wheelchair, facing forward.
"As long as I am for one day, I will seek justice for you for one day!"
Lin Duci let out a loud shout, with three points of hoarseness in his tone.
With his back pressed against the back of the chair, his legs together, one hand hanging on his chest and the other flat on his knee, there was nothing superfluous about it.
He sat up straight, without the slightest slackness, like a tight bowstring, revealing rigor all over his body.
His gaze was straight ahead, his eyes firm and deep, without a trace of expression fluctuation on his face, like a statue of meditation, exuding a majestic and solemn aura.
In the eyes of passers-by, this kind of Lin Dusk is like a pine tree rooted in the earth, as if it cannot bend him no matter the wind and rain.
Lin Dusk's resignation is a day.
The next day he was still sitting.
On the third day, someone was infected by his tenacity, swept away the fear of corpses, and stepped into the gate of the Qincha Yamen.
On the other side, the Tang Mansion was surrounded by officers and soldiers at this time.
From the beginning of Tingyulou, Mrs. Tang refused to do business with the Chen family and was taken to the mansion, but the Chen family was destroyed and taken to Cuilin Yuan, and as a result, Chai Dashan disappeared and took the body of her "sister" to the people to sue the official, but the official died.
In the end, she seemed to be involved in everything, but she didn't seem to be fully involved.
After all, it was not she who destroyed the Chen family, it was not she who caught Chai Dashan, and it was not she who killed the admiral.
But in the eyes of Changpeng Liu's side, this woman seems to be a little evil and a little ominous, after all, wherever she goes, it is cool there.
Previously, in the Qincha Yamen, no one said anything about Lin Qi's resignation to save Shen Qi, so with Shen Qi's appearance of captivating the country and the city, everyone will naturally inadvertently speculate that Shen Qi used the art of power and color.
This so-called Mrs. Tang was finally "valued" by Changpeng Liu's people at this moment.
Forget about a Lin Dusk, he bravely went to the south with the mission of Emperor Wanzhen, but what is the matter with such a woman?
How could she make such a big disturbance in Spring Breeze City?
If you can't deal with the minister, can't you still deal with a woman?
At this time, the door of the Tang Mansion was wide open, and the officers and soldiers had already rushed into the courtyard.
Tang Zongjiu and Tang Yu stood in the courtyard, confronting various officers and soldiers.
"Who are you? Don't get in the way of the official handling of the case! The leader of the officers and soldiers scolded.
Tang Zongjiu didn't want to talk to these people at all.
However, his and Shen Qi's task today is to support each other's manpower.
They bet that Liu Changpeng did not dare to openly oppose the imperial court now, and whenever his large army in Xinan moved, Emperor Wanzhen would be able to charge him with rebellion, and send troops in the name of rebellion.
It is precisely because of this that Changpeng Liu's methods against several of them are only to assassinate them secretly and disgust them on weekdays.
But they're not afraid of that at all.
How many people Changpeng Liu sent were an ending with no return.
was bitten down by Shen Qi and them like this, and Changpeng Liu would also hurt.
So there is the scene of this moment.
Except for Shen Yi who followed Shen Qi, Tang Zongjiu and several people added up to a total of eleven people, which was all the combat power of the entire Princess Mansion.
And the other side seems to have two hundred people.
Tang Zongjiu drew his sword, and his aura was fierce.
The head of the officers and soldiers looked at Tang Zongjiu and the other eleven people.
None of these people are ordinary people.
Shangguan is right, there is something wrong with that woman, and it is impossible for an ordinary woman to have a guard with such a temperament.
The head of the officers and soldiers took a step forward, and the order he received today was to destroy everything, and since the other party didn't want to talk to him more, he didn't bother to say anything.
"Take it!" The leader gave an order, and the surrounding officers and soldiers rushed towards Tang Zongjiu and a few people "suddenly".
"Up!" Tang Zongjiu naturally did not show weakness at all.
The two sides fought together.
Inside the underground passage, several people clearly heard the sound of fighting outside.
Shen Qi's expression was somewhat solemn, she didn't want Tang Zongjiu to get hurt, but in today's situation, it is impossible not to get hurt.
She looked at Su Fang and the others behind her, the subordinates she bought before had been disbanded in advance, and now there were only her, Su Fang, Mama Li and Xiaoyu.
Xiao Yu had been following Yan Zhanpeng along the way, but the task on Yan Zhanpeng's shoulders became heavier and heavier, and it was inconvenient to take Xiao Yu with him many times, and after that, Xiao Yu followed Mama Li and Su Fang.
Therefore, he is also in the tunnel at the moment.
"Su Fang, are the medicines and bandages we prepared earlier?" Shen Qi asked.
"Princess, don't worry, everything is ready." Su Fang said.
"I don't know what's going on outside." Shen Qi said worriedly.
"Your Highness, the colt will be fine." Mama Li comforted on the side.
"Hmm." Shen Qi cheered himself up, "He'll be fine." β
The sound of fighting outside intensified.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps in the tunnel.
"Fengzhi!" Tang Zongjiu's voice came from the front.
"Jun Ge!" Shen Qi responded.
Tang Zongjiu didn't delay when he saw Shen Qi, grabbed her hand and ran to the exit.
Tang Zongjiu's entire palm was sticky, and it seemed to be full of blood.
"Are you alright?" Shen Qi couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay, kill them all." Tang Zongjiu's tone was cold, and his body was shrouded in a thick layer of murderous aura, which was diametrically opposed to the sunny appearance in the past.
"Lu Mingze and the others should have already faced off with the water bandits." Shen Qi said.
"Well, Lin Duci is also insisting at this time."
Maybe he killed a lot of people, Tang Zongjiu's tone of voice at the moment was cold.
"It's a matter of how long we can hold out."
"Hmm." Shen Qi said.
Exchanging hostages and fighting hard, Shen Qi's side could not be the opponent of the water bandits at all.
There is a wave of water bandits, even if Shen Qi and they can encircle and suppress them, they don't have the strength to fight with Liu Changpeng's people anymore.
Previously, they consumed a wave one after another, Lin Duci killed a wave, and among the messengers of the letter, another wave was spelled, although Lin Duci's people were almost wiped out, but there was one person alive.
Shen Qi also cleared a wave here, and this wave of the other party directly came to a big one.
And Shen Qi and the others are waiting for this big wave, so at least the water bandits have no foreign aid.
Soon, Shen Qi and Tang Zongjiu ran out of the tunnel, and what attracted their attention was still a large number of officers and soldiers.
Shen Qi stopped. (End of chapter)
