Chapter 42 Aftermath Set off for home

In the tailor shop of the old Chen family, Gu Zhen'er pulled Qin Qin to describe the scenery of Zhangye to her, Qin Qin nodded while listening, while Liu Feiyan was unhurriedly tidying up the house, and the two looked out of the door from time to time.

Suddenly, Liu Feiyan saw smoke billowing into the sky in the distance, turned his head to Gu Zhen'er and Qinqing and said, "It seems that there is a fire somewhere outside, I said Qinqing, is there often a fire here in Guzang?"

"No, I haven't heard anyone talk about a fire since I was a child, and even if there is a little flame, the neighbors around me will quickly extinguish it when they see it. ”

While speaking, Liu Feiyan heard a sudden noise on the street, and then went out to investigate, only to see many people running in the direction of the fire, and a happy smile appeared on his face, Liu Feiyan was puzzled when he saw it, and grabbed a person casually and asked: "What's going on over there, why are so many people running to see it? Why is everyone running there smiling? Are you happy to see the smoke?"

This person had appeared in the execution ground before, and knew that Liu Feiyan was the person who was on the other side, but when he remembered whose house was on fire, he couldn't hide his excitement in his heart, and said to Liu Feiyan excitedly: "Don't you know, the old Zhu family's pawnshop is on fire, and it was your two companions who set the fire." ”

Immediately broke free of Liu Feiyan's hand, and hurriedly ran to the old Zhu's pawnshop, Liu Feiyan thought to himself: Brother Chu and Ruolan won't go to find that family's bad luck, if that's the case, this bad luck is too big, no, I have to go and see, lest they get excited and kill people again.

Gu Zhen'er saw that Liu Feiyan had been standing at the door, and walked forward and asked, "Cousin, what's wrong, look at your preoccupied appearance." ”

Liu Feiyan turned around and whispered a few words in Gu Zhen'er's ear, only to see Gu Zhen'er suddenly 'ah', "Then you go and see the situation quickly, I'll accompany Qin Qin here." ”

Liu Feiyan patted Gu Zhen'er on the shoulder, turned around and ran into the street, and rushed towards the place where the smoke was coming from.

At this time, at the door of the Zhu family's pawnshop, Chu Mofeng and Xiao Ruolan held weapons and looked coldly at the county guard and a group of soldiers in front of them, only to see the county guard come forward and whisper to Chu Mofeng: "I said Daxia, we are really happy that you came back this time, but don't make it difficult for me, do you think?"

"I don't make it difficult for you to do, you don't make it difficult for me to do it, Lao Chen's thing is worth a life, as for the burning of the pawnshop, the money will not be lost, but I am very puzzled, when I came in May, this family and the pawnshop have not yet appeared, it has only been half a year, don't you know anything about the evil things they did behind your back?"

Taishou smiled helplessly and said, "Hero, you don't know if you don't ...... be an official."

"I know you want to say that there are people in the DPRK who are easy to do, and the officials crush people to death at the first level, and it is good to be an official and turn a blind eye. Chu Mofeng suddenly aggravated his tone and said: "If I remember correctly, your name is Li Zhenghe, Zi Yuanxin, before you were appointed as the Taishou of Wuwei County, you worked under the late Gao Jiong Gao, you can be appointed as the Taishou of Wuwei or recommended by Gao Dashou, I am right." ”

Li Zhenghe looked at the man wearing the yaksha mask in front of him in surprise, and whispered, "Why did the hero say this?"

"What are the criteria for being an official that Master Gao once said?"

"Close to the people, diligent, honest, and fair" Li Zhenghe shouted without thinking, and then Chu Mofeng's angry voice came from his ears: "Have you followed him for so many years, and you have forgotten all these principles of him, or have you become a corrupt official who cares about people's lives?"

Recalling the days when he used to work under Master Gao, and Master Gao's earnest teaching to everyone, Li Zhenghe unconsciously shed tears, "It's me who was confused for a while, and I know what to do." ”

Then Li Zhenghe walked over Chu Mofeng to the old Zhu daughter-in-law, and said viciously: " Your man instructed the servants to kill people on the street, and they should be beheaded according to the law; and every time your family asks for an account, they instruct the servants to maliciously rob them, and even arbitrarily take people to pay off debts without going through the judgment of the official, confiscate the family property according to the law, and all the people involved in the case will be imprisoned, and now your shop is also burning, and your man has also paid for the life of the deceased, if you want to mess around again, don't blame the official for being unreasonable, now hurry home and pack up your things, get out of Guzang County, and the remaining property of your family will not be confiscated by the official, and you are allowed to take it all. ”

When the old Zhu daughter-in-law heard Lord Taishou say this, she glanced at the weapon that was still dripping blood in Chu Mofeng's hand, and after trembling for a while, she hurriedly got up and ran without looking back.

Looking at the embarrassed figure of the old Zhu daughter-in-law, the Baixin present applauded Taishou and Chu Mofeng. At this time, Li Zhenghe walked up to Chu Mofeng and whispered, "Hero, do you think this is okay?"

Chu Mofeng nodded, clasped his hands into fists and made a gesture to Li Zhenghe, and shouted loudly: "Lord Xie Taishou is fair and honest, and the villain retires." Seeing this, Xiao Ruolan also gave Li Zhenghe a blessing, turned around and left here with Chu Mofeng.

On the way back, the two met Liu Feiyan, Liu Feiyan saw that Chu Mofeng was still holding the blood-dripping Burning Sky, and glanced at Xiao Ruolan again, as if she understood something, she covered her mouth with her hand and couldn't help crying.

When they returned to the tailor's shop, they heard the sound of Qin Jing crying before they reached the door, and the three of them were about to enter the door, when they saw Gu Zhen'er wearing a mask and holding a long knife in her hand, and ran out angrily, shouting behind her head while running: "Qin Jing, you wait, my sister went to kill that guy to avenge your father." ”

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng stopped her, and when Gu Zhen'er saw that it was Chu Mofeng, she cried loudly, "Brother Feng, Lao Chen was killed, I am going to kill those two people to avenge him, you see how pitiful Qianqing is, Brother Feng, I beg you, can you go with me, help Qinqing take revenge, I will be yours in the future, I will be a cow and a horse to serve you, I just ask you to help me with this." ”

Looking at the girl in front of him, who had always been cheerful, Chu Mofeng's heart was also sour, and he took Gu Zhen'er into his arms and said silently: "Cry, it's good to cry." ”

At this time, Chen Jingqing walked out with the support of a neighbor, knelt down in front of Chu Mofeng, kowtowed and said: "Chu Daxia, the little woman begs you to avenge my father, don't sacrifice yourself for Sister Zhen'er, after the revenge is avenged, the little woman promises to each other, I just hope that the hero will not dislike the little woman's posture." Then he bowed deeply and did not get up for a long time.

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng took off the mask and pinned it to his waist, motioned to Liu Feiyan and Xiao Ruolan to help Chen Jingqing up, suddenly his knees weakened, and he knelt down in front of Chen Jingqing, "Miss Qinqing, it's my fault, I didn't expect people's hearts to be so sinister, I didn't protect your father, I have already killed people for you, and his shop Ruolan has also been burned, if you still have hatred in your heart, kill me too." ”

Gu Zhen'er wiped away her tears when she heard the words and looked at Xiao Ruolan, Xiao Ruolan knew that she wanted to get an answer from herself, and then nodded, at this time Liu Feiyan helped Chen Jingqing up and said, "Sister, since Brother Chu has avenged your father, then we should let your father be buried in peace." What do you think?"

Chen Jingqing heard Chu Mofeng say that he had taken revenge, knelt down in front of Chu Mofeng again, kowtowed three times and said: "Thank you Chu Daxia for avenging his father, Qin Jing is a man of his word, since the hero avenged his father, then from today on Qin Jing will be a hero, and after the three-year filial piety period, he will marry the hero and serve the hero for the rest of his life." ”

When Chu Mofeng heard this, he hurriedly got up and prepared to refuse, but when he saw Liu Feiyan winking at him, his words of refusal turned into another word, "Miss Qinqing, let's do the funeral for your father first." ”

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, Lao Chen's funeral was also dealt with, everyone put the things in the tailor's shop together, loaded them into the carriage according to Chen Jingqing's requirements, and sold the rest of the house for ten yuan together, and then hired a carriage to let Gu Zhen'er and Chen Jingqing ride in the carriage, while he rode horses with Liu Feiyan and Xiao Ruolan, and walked towards Zhangye County all the way.

At this time, in the house of the old Zhu family, the old Zhu daughter-in-law Liu held a wine jug in her hand, sat on a chair in the main hall, and put two large boxes in front of her, and there were more than 20 gangster men standing behind the boxes.

I saw Liu Shi raise his head and pour a sip of wine, then opened the box, and said viciously to the people in front of him: "Everyone, kill those people, these money are only half of the honorarium, and you will take the other half when you come back." I don't want to see people, only corpses. ”

When everyone saw the consistent money in the box, their eyes couldn't help but shine, and they hugged their fists at Liu and said: "Madam, please rest assured, we will use people's money to eliminate disasters for others, and we will definitely do things beautifully, farewell!"

Chu Mofeng and a few people walked out of the gate of Guzang County with their front feet, and more than 20 horses on their back feet galloped past outside the gate of Zhu's house, chasing them in the direction of Chu Mofeng.

The five of them walked forward leisurely, and only then did they come to the bank of the weak water river, when they heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves coming from behind, Chu Mofeng looked back, and there was dust not far behind him, as if a large number of people and horses were rushing to this side. Chu Mofeng immediately shouted to the people in the carriage: "Zhen'er protect Qinqing and continue to move forward, Feiyan Ruolan and I are on guard." ”

Hearing Chu Mofeng's warning, Gu Zhen'er shook the reins, and the carriage immediately accelerated and ran forward, while the remaining three quickly put on their masks and drew their weapons, looking coldly at the person on the other side.

More than twenty men came to a distance of seven or eight meters in front of Chu Mofeng and stopped, and one of the leaders said to Chu Mofeng: "Boy, someone spent money to buy the lives of a few of you, it's really not a coincidence, we took this business, you don't have to resist, quickly get off the horse and come over and let the master cut back to pay the errand." ”

The rest of the people looked at Chu Mofeng and the three of them laughed, and one of them said to the leader: "Big brother, there are still two missing, it should be in front, do you want the brothers to send someone to chase after them?"

The leader thought for a moment and said, "You kid go to the front and kill those two little girls, and then come back with the corpses." ”

This person said in his mouth, 'De Ling' with his legs clamped the horse's belly and rushed forward, and when he was about to rub his body with Xiao Ruolan, Xiao Ruolan suddenly moved, only to see Xiao Ruolan turn the spear in his hand, and stabbed it to the side, and the person on his side was pierced by the spear as a chest, only the horse under the crotch still ran forward, Xiao Ruolan picked this person up, and then shook the spear hard, throwing this person on the ground like a rag bag.

Seeing the tragic situation of his companions, the leader gasped and said to the people behind him, "Two more people go up." As soon as the words fell, two more horses rushed forward, and the two of them passed by Xiao Ruolan nervously, Xiao Ruolan did not shoot at this time, and the two continued to run forward when they saw it.

The leader couldn't help laughing when he saw this, and was about to speak when he suddenly saw two golden lights galloping towards the two, and just as he was about to open his mouth to warn, the two people in the distance covered their necks and fell off the horse.

The leader was surprised, Chu Mofeng looked at the people in front of him and said slowly, "If you want to chase that carriage, kill the three of us first." Then he beckoned to everyone, "Come up and lead the death"

Hearing this, everyone angrily raised their weapons and killed them, only to see Xiao Ruolan holding a spear in her hand, her legs pinched the horse's belly and rushed up, and a person rushed up with a scimitar in her hand, Xiao Ruolan sent the spear in her hand forward, and the head of the spear instantly penetrated the person's chest, and then Xiao Ruolan pumped it again, and the person instantly planted the horse.

And Liu Feiyan buckled the soft sword on his waist, shook the sword flower and rushed up, Chu Mofeng kept taking darts from behind with both hands, and after a while, six or seven people fell to the ground, and the momentum of the people behind them did not decrease, some stepped on the fallen people and passed, and some were tripped by the fallen people and planted off the horse.

Seeing this, Liu Feiyan stepped on the stirrup with both legs, jumped straight off the horse, stabbed at the person in front of him, and the tip of the sword poked into the person's hand, this person couldn't bear the pain and threw the weapon in his hand, Liu Feiyan's soft sword was drawn, and he pushed his backhand upward, and saw one of this person's arms rising to the sky, and before this person screamed in pain, Liu Feiyan turned around on the spot, and stabbed the sword into the person's chest with the force of turning.

At this time, Gu Zhen'er drove the head of the carriage and ran forward without looking back, only to hear Chen Jingqing shouting in the car: "Sister Zhen'er, you stop, we have to go back." ”

"No, Brother Feng's order to me is to escort you away, and I can't disobey her order. ”

"Sister Zhen'er, let's go back, if you don't listen, I will die in front of you, Brother Chu, Sister Feiyan and Sister Ruolan stayed to fight with those people in order to protect me, if they all die, what's the use of us escaping? ”

Gu Zhen'er heard Chen Jingqing say this, and said 'Okay, I want to die together' and then pulled the reins on the left, the carriage turned quickly to the left, and the left turn made the body suddenly tilt, Gu Zhen'er stomped on the board to stabilize the body, and then shook the reins in her hand, and the carriage rushed forward again.

At this time, the battle had reached its most intense, and Liu Feiyan and Xiao Ruolan were also injured to varying degrees, especially Liu Feiyan's shoulder, a three-inch-long wound kept bleeding, and Xiao Ruolan's back was left with seven or eight wounds of different lengths. As for Chu Mofeng, he was the worst, with more than 20 large and small wounds on his body, and the most unfortunate thing was that the left shoulder socket was stabbed through again, and the entire left arm was unable to exert his strength.

As for the people who came to commit the murder, only the leader and the two minions were still breathing, one of them held a knife and slashed at Xiao Ruolan, Xiao Ruolan saw this and hurriedly raised the gun horizontally, only to hear a bang, the knife slashed on Xiao Ruolan's gun, and was shocked by a huge force, and the wound on Xiao Ruolan's body flowed out of blood again, only to see Xiao Ruolan gritted her teeth and held the gun horizontally upward, and the person holding the knife stepped back, and then Xiao Ruolan threw the spear in her hand with all her strength, and the spear shot into the person's chest like a dragon, Xiao Ruolan saw that the blow was hit and sat on the ground with all her strength。

Seeing this, another minion pounced on with an iron rod, wanting to take the opportunity to pick up the leak, Liu Feiyan saw the minion pounce up, regardless of the pain on his shoulder, the soft sword in his hand stabbed towards this person in the shape of a spiritual snake, under the intersection of sticks and swords, Liu Feiyan was shocked by the strength of the iron rod and retreated, and suddenly stumbled and sat on the ground under his feet.

Liu Feiyan had taken off the sword at this time, and his body had long lost his strength, seeing this scene, he closed his eyes helplessly, only listening to the sound of 'poof', the iron rod stopped three feet in front of Liu Feiyan's forehead and no longer fell, Liu Feiyan opened his eyes and saw a long knife in the chest of the person in front of him, and a jade plate hung on the tassel of the handle of the knife, with a striking 'Gu' word engraved on it, and then Liu Feiyan laughed.

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng turned his head and glanced at it, only to see a carriage parked not far away, and a petite figure running quickly towards this side, seeing this scene Chu Mofeng smiled heartily, turned his head and said to the leader in front of him: "Come on, it's just the two of us, I'll rush back to Zhangye to eat when I'm done early." ”

The leader laughed maniacally, "How long do you think your blood will last?" When Chu Mofeng heard this, he shouted to Gu Zhen'er: "Zhen'er, help Feiyan and Ruolan into the carriage, and then hurry up, I will chase you later, I will be distracted by you here." Then he tore off a strip of cloth on his body, bandaged the wound on his shoulder briefly, and rushed towards the leader with a clenched grip on the burning sky.

Seeing this, the leader stabbed the long sword in his hand and stabbed at Chu Mofeng, Chu Mofeng blocked it, and the tip of the sword stabbed on the back of the burning sky, and the leader saw that the blow missed, and hurriedly withdrew his sword to attack again,

Seeing this, Chu Mofeng raised his right hand with the strength of the burning angel, only to hear the 'bang', the leader's long sword was drawn by the burning sky, and immediately flew out, the leader didn't expect that Chu Mofeng, who had been injured and bleeding for a long time, still had so much strength, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, it was this precious moment that made Chu Mofeng seize the gap in the attack.

I saw that Chu Mofeng also took advantage of the situation to let Burning Sky get rid of his hand, and then wiped his right hand to his waist, Huang Quan gently scratched the leader's throat with his hand, and when the leader reacted, he only felt a cold throat, and subconsciously reached out to touch it, and saw that his hand was full of blood. The leader then slowly fell to the ground, and only then did blood gush out of the wound.

At this time, Chu Mofeng also used up his last strength, and slowly fell to the ground in the darkness in front of him......
