"Something is wrong."

Qiao Xing immediately picked up a sword in his hand, opened the courtyard door slightly, and checked the movement outside.

Zhou Xiaozhou found a wooden stick to make a weapon in his hand, and also went to the crack of the door to check the situation.

If it wasn't dark today, and the sight was good, I saw a masked man wielding a sword and killing people when he saw them, and he was agile, obviously a person who practiced martial arts.

In broad daylight, a masked person broke in and killed people, and he was arrogant enough if he wasn't crazy.

This is a royal city, guarded by a large army, and the various yamen of the government are also masters, and daring to do this can only be said to be a madman...

"How's your skill?"

"Huh?"

Qiao Xing said: "You cooperate with me to capture this person." ”

Capture this person as soon as possible to avoid further casualties.

But with a bloody sword in his hand, Zhou Xiaozhou has never been real with anyone, he is very bottomless, and he is a little hesitant.

"No, there's more than one coming."

Screams were evident from other places, and people were here to kill people, not madmen and kill people.

Qiao Xing's face suddenly turned bad.

Jianghu people have a grudge, and there are people who come to kill a chicken and dog without staying, but the Zuo family is not a Jianghu person, but a high-ranking official in the court, how can it provoke Jianghu people to come to the door to slaughter the door and destroy the household?

And it was during the day.

I came in in the middle of the night, and I didn't know it...

It may be that the person who mainly wants to kill is already at home, and the others are piggybacking on it.

Sure enough, there are more and more masked people in this area, chasing and killing people in Zuofu like killing chickens and sheep, whether they are women and children or subordinates, they are slashed to the ground without mercy.

Even breaking in one yard after another to slash and slash is really a posture where chickens and dogs do not stay.

I'm coming this way.

If there is only one masked man, Qiao Xing still has the courage to fight, a large group of masked people, where can they still have this mind.

Capturing the thief becomes the need for self-preservation.

"Follow me."

The background of the dart master really gave her the ability to be unfazed, and she pulled the bear child and Zuo Xi'er to open a secret passage in her room.

In fact, it was just a simple refuge pit, a cellar, and the place was not big, and the six people seemed to be crowded.

The bear child squeezed Qiao Yan's body, and was pushed away by Zhou Xiaozhou, he was furious and was about to scold.

Zhou Xiaozhou covered his mouth and held him in his arms to prevent him from moving.

Soon, the courtyard gate was kicked open, and the sound of footsteps fell densely in the courtyard.

"Nobody..."

"There's no one here..."

"Probably have run out to kill on the road, go."

There were a few simple whispers, and the men ran out as fast as they could.

Qiao Xing shook his hand and motioned to everyone not to speak, let alone go out.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for someone to run in and check it out.

Until a large number of officials came to the door, there was a shout of killing in Zuofu, and it quickly subsided.

Apparently, the masked people retreated.

Qiao Xing still shook his head and didn't let everyone out.

Officers and men are not necessarily kinder than thieves when the lights are blind, and it is normal for them to take the opportunity to loot.

It was not until dawn that the people climbed out of the cellar.

Sure enough, it was looted, and the yard was in a mess, and all valuable things were taken away.

Apparently it wasn't the masked men who did it, they only killed people.

A huge Zuo family could only say one tragic word, and more than 200 people were killed.

Including the subordinates and the girl, they were made up, which was purely unlucky.

Of course, it is impossible for the people of the Zuo family to be killed in one go, there are always some people who happen to be not at home, such as the third son of Zuo, who had a meal and did not go home on time, but escaped a catastrophe.

It was already midnight when I heard the movement and ran home, and I didn't dare to enter the house.

Almost killed a chicken dog without staying.

The left and right squires were also killed, including the eldest son and the second son, and they were not spared.

These two are not as incompetent as the third child, they also serve in the Ministry of Industry, and they are also important officials in the Ministry of Industry.

The three most important figures of the Zuo family were all killed, and naturally they collapsed with a bang.

The third son of the left will definitely not be able to support this family.

As for the reason, it is not clear, it may be that the political enemy bought the murderer, or it may be that the Zuo family offended the gate faction on the rivers and lakes, and it needs to be investigated.

Whether the Zuo family dies or not, Zhou Xiaozhou doesn't care, he doesn't have a good impression of this family at all, and it is difficult to rise up even a little sadness.

Seeing Weisi, just seeing these third generations, there is no decent, such a family will definitely have trouble.

Sooner or later.

Several of them were able to survive, and they all survived the chaos thanks to Qiao Xing.

There are really not many survivors of the Zuo family, and there are only a dozen of them together, and a big family that was originally noisy suddenly seemed thin.

These dozen or so are naturally regarded as those with the surname Zuo, and the subordinates who are not surnamed Zuo will leave directly.

What's interesting is that the eldest son of Zuo survived, and I don't know how he did it, looking at the corpses all over the ground and wailing, so sad.

The family is gone, even if he can be the head of the family, what is the use?

Now he is indeed the head of the house.

"It seems that if you don't go back, you have to go back."

Qiao Xing sighed, the Zuo family had fallen, and naturally there was no reason to continue to stay in Wangcheng.

She is not interested in collecting the corpses of the Zuo family or anything, and the surname Zuo is not dead, so she doesn't need a concubine to show up.

Immediately cleaned up a little, pulled a horse out of the stable, set up a good-looking cart, and left.

"It's better to catch a car at the bottom of the line."

Zhou Xiaozhou took the initiative to catch the car, so as not to be so conspicuous.

Intramuros two-day tour.

Naturally, there is no need to mention the champion or something.

took back Qiao Xing's mother and son, but they wanted to go back to Qingshi County to join their parents' family.

Whether it is wealth or glory, you have to enjoy it by those who can enjoy it, and if you barely get together, not only will you not get anything, but you will find guilt for yourself.

This way back is relatively silent, and even the bear children don't make a fuss.

Without dependence, the bear child is not a stupid child, and his confidence is immediately discharged, and he is very honest.

The only catch was to pull back such a carriage.

The horse is a good horse, the car is also very good, it is more spacious to sit five or six people, and it is more comfortable to sleep even on the car.

At night, when they stayed in the guest house, Zhou Xiaozhou slept in the car, which was considered to save money for opening a house.

"The last time I left, I haven't been back for several years."

Back in his hometown, Qiao Xing sighed a lot, got out of the car and sat on the wheel, looking around at the scenery along the way.

Last time, I returned home, but now I am back in trouble, and life is really unpredictable.

Zhou Xiaozhou's eyes were a little strange when she looked at her, she was just a concubine, she had to pretend to enjoy happiness in the capital, it was really hypocritical!

"Your look makes me uncomfortable."

Qiao Xing glared at him angrily, and said, "Don't talk nonsense when you go back, just say that I'm going home to visit my relatives." If the rumors are spread, they won't spare you! ”

"Oh oh..."

Zhou Xiaozhou sniffled and hurriedly diverted the topic, "It's okay, it's okay, it's time to go home for the New Year, a happy event." ”
