Pearl Volume 1, Killing People and Destroying Mouths
1. Kill people and kill people
Waiting is what everyone is doing, all the time, every moment.
Life is a process of waiting for death.
Waiting is not only an enjoyable process, but also a very uncomfortable process.
For "Golden Bull Hitting the Bell" He Bisheng, sitting down and waiting for the result slowly is the same as walking on the execution table step by step. I want a pleasure, but I have to wait slowly.
Waiting, which made He Bisheng feel extremely bad, he had already walked one hundred and fifty-nine laps in the hall, and drank sixteen cups of tea
With a "snap", after drinking the seventeenth cup of tea, He Bisheng finally couldn't bear it, slapped the teacup into the table, and said: "Helper, it's not a matter of waiting, it's better for me to bring a few brothers to pick them up." ”
On the main seat, Zhu Changle did not answer, but just quietly tasted tea.
Feng Renyu, the military advisor on the side, got up and said, "Deputy gang leader, don't worry, don't you worry about the strength of Master Xiu Yun and Hu Chong?"
He Bisheng was still a little uneasy and said, "But ...... However, after waiting for so long, they have not returned. If this thing is leaked, the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
As soon as he said this, I saw that outside the hall, the starlight of the dark night was dyed by a red light.
Seeing this scene, He Bisheng's anxious face finally showed a smile.
"That's right. Feng Renyu also secretly let out a long breath and said, "It's right to hand over this matter to the 'Golden Hand' and the 'Golden-Faced Ghost'. ”
Why Bisheng sat back in his place with peace of mind.
After a while, he saw a gang leading the two in.
The people who came were a monk and a layman, respectively, the "golden hand" monk Xiuyun and the "golden-faced ghost" Hu Chong.
That Xiu Yunnai was a tall monk, and as soon as he walked into the hall, he laughed and said: "Helper, the Sprinkle family is fortunate not to be dishonored, and all the thirty-eight members of Jia Quan's family have been ......" He didn't finish his words, but just made a movement to wipe his neck.
Hearing this, Zhu Changle, the helper "smiling proudly", finally laughed, only to hear him say a few words in a row, and ordered someone to arrange a banquet.
At the banquet, Zhu Changle inquired in detail about the process of the matter.
Although it is a bit exaggerated after drinking, if it is really as the two said, then the matter is a bit hanging.
After the banquet, Zhu Changle called the military master Feng Renyu to his room. "What does the advisor think about this?"
Feng Renyu touched his goatee and said, "Helper, this Jia Quan has no power to restrain the chicken, and the family is full of chores, so it is reasonable to say that there is no resistance." But since he can be arranged to go undercover here, and he hasn't been found for a long time, such a person won't feel anything when danger comes. ”
"Hmm. Zhu Changle took a sip of strong tea and said, "I think so too, I think he has already spread the news before we killed him." According to Hu Chong, during the massacre, someone accidentally set the house on fire, instead of inspecting each body and setting it on fire. They must have burned the fire themselves, in order to cover the escape of their people. In this way, you immediately contact the people in the yamen to see if there are any dead bodies in the fire. In addition, let the brothers outside the city show the bright spots, and don't let go of any suspicious person. ”
"Yes. ”
The yamen, the backyard, the dark room, that is, the morgue.
Now it is occupied by corpses.
The corpses were horrific to see, with more than one wound on their bodies, each one deep, and some of them had their necks twisted and died.
Even so, several knives were made up on his body, just to prevent there from being left alive.
But even so, the murderer felt that it was not enough, and burned the body beyond recognition.
The worst of them was a distant relative of the Jia family, who was crushed by a burned pillar on his body, his whole body was charred and black, and he couldn't tell anything. If it weren't for the fact that he was a dwarf, born short, and with thicker bones than a child, who would have recognized him.
In the dark room, there was nothing but corpses and the smell of burning.
These people were all brutally killed, and they belonged to the dead eye, maybe the unjust souls were around, waiting to pull people down to cushion their backs. So don't talk about the morgue, even the courtyard where it is located is not half a human figure.
It all seemed so peaceful, it seemed like it would last until the end of the day.
The door creaked open, and in this silent world, it was particularly harsh.
The first to enter the house was a hand with an oil lamp, followed by the owner of that hand.
In this dark world, the only person who can move is more like a messenger from hell. And the oil lamp in his hand also seems to be a soul-attracting lamp.
After walking back and forth in the morgue three times, the man spoke: "It's strange, there are not many corpses, is this fire really outside?"
In the backyard of the yamen, the door of the prefect's office was closed, and the prefect kept walking back and forth inside. How could such a big case be put on the table by him.
"Master, what do you say you should do?"
The master touched his beard, and said with a somewhat embarrassed face: "My lord, the murderer did not leak, and we couldn't find a trace of clues at the scene." ”
Where can the prefect hear this innocuous remark now, and directly interrupted: "Then you say, what forces in the city can do this now." ”
The master said: "My lord, the only one who can do it is the Yongle Gang." ”
The prefect said: "That's easy, just say that they killed the person, and let them find someone to take the blame." ”
The master said: "My lord, that Jia Quan is also doing things in the Yongle Gang, how can they kill their own people." ”
The prefect said: "What's impossible about this, that Jia Quan violated the gang rules and was punished by the gang, what doesn't make sense." ”
The master said: "If Jia Quan makes a mistake, he can be punished alone, how can he not let go of everyone in his family." ”
The prefect said: "Now it seems that only they can do it, if it is not them, who will it be." ”
The master said: "My lord, don't be too anxious. ”
When the prefect heard this, he was a little dissatisfied and said, "So what, do they dare to rebel." ”
The master said: "My lord, this Yongle Gang is one of the four major evil sects in the rivers and lakes, and it is powerful and disobedient. If they are really forced to hurry, it is not impossible to kill the government and raise the banner. At that time, even if you are lucky enough to escape and are not caught by them, but you force people to rebel and issue a life case than Zhizhi...... My lord, which of the consequences is serious, you should weigh it carefully. ”
When the prefect heard this, he became anxious and said, "Then what should I do, do you just let it go? ”
The master hurriedly handed over the tea and said, "My lord, there are only two ways at the moment. First, it was said to the outside that Jia's family was on fire, resulting in the whole family being burned to death. As long as you spend a little money on it, it should be covered. Another way is to take advantage of the situation and tell the Yongle Gang that this incident was done by its hostile forces, and ask them to help catch the real culprit. ”
"Hmm. The prefect took a sip of tea and said, "Now, this is the only way to do it, so as to minimize the impact." ”
On the morning of the second day of the Jia family's annihilation, Zhu Changle was having breakfast, when he saw Feng Renyu, the military advisor "chaotic flowers gradually becoming charming", walking into the living room.
"Strategist, please be seated. Zhu Changle said.
"Thank you. ”
Zhu Changle said: "The military advisor is only here now, and his complexion is calm, and there is no shortage of corpses that want to come to Najia's house." ”
Feng Ren said: "It is indeed as the gang leader expected, but among the corpses, I still have some questions. ”
"Oh, what's the question?" said Zhu Changle.
Feng Ren said: "Na Jia Quan has a distant relative, but he is a dwarf, and he is naturally short. After his death, his body was hit by a burnt pillar, and now the body is unrecognizable......"
"Are you trying to say that the other party may steal the day?"
Feng Ren said: "That's right. ”
Zhu Changle said: "I also thought about what you said, but now there is no better way to check the people who go out of the city one by one." If the movement is loud and detected by other forces, then everything in front of us will be in vain. Now we have to wait for the return of our brothers outside the city. ”
As soon as I said this, I heard a report that the master of the government asked to see him.
At the same time, it also brought a piece of news: before it was time for lunch, the four city gates were suddenly under martial law, and all people entering and leaving the city were checked.
Hearing the report of his subordinates, Zhu Changle smiled with satisfaction.
The military advisor on the side listened to it and roughly guessed the reason. "Helper, this should be ordered by the prefect. ”
Zhu Changle said: "Yes, the master of the Yamen came in the morning to talk to us about the tragedy of the Jia family's annihilation. They think that this is the work of our hostile forces, so they want us to help them. In addition, in order not to cause panic among the people, I hope we will come forward to help calm people's hearts. However, I think they are also suspicious of us, but we are very powerful, and they have no evidence, so they made peace, but they can't prevent them from giving up and secretly investigating. So we have to be prepared for both, and if we find any clues for them, we have to deal with them. ”
"Got it. ”
Before dinner arrived, a reporter came to Zhu Changle's side and whispered something in his ear.
Hearing the news, Zhu Changle was so angry that he smashed the tea table next to him and walked back and forth in the hall a few times.
"Okay, you're a long shun dart game, you really have you. ”
¥¥¥
Gong Wenyu has been walking on the road for five or six days, and there are fewer and fewer people to see.
What he walked was not the official road built by the imperial court, and the dilapidated stone slab under his feet showed that it had long been in disrepair. According to Gong Wenyu, only by taking the road that others do not take can you see the scenery that others can't see.
Gong Wenyu was ordered by his master to go to see an old scholar who had returned to the mountains and forests.
Now that he has returned from the visit, it is estimated that it will take half a day before he can enter the official road, and then he can find an inn to rest with peace of mind and write down the scenery he has seen during these days.
Thinking of this, Gong Wenyu's feet sped up a little.
At this moment, he faintly heard someone shouting for help. In this wilderness, are poisonous snakes and beasts infesting and hurting people, or are there villains coming out to commit murder?
This cannot be left alone.
I saw that as soon as his legs were forced, people rushed to the source of the sound like a pop.
After running for a while, Gong Wenyu smelled a smell of blood.
A few steps further, I saw two dart carts lying on the side of the road, and several dart masters were slaughtered in front of them.
This road is not an official road, and the weeds on both sides of the road are almost one person high, Gong Wenyu looked at it at a glance, only to see the weeds shaking, it seemed that there were people.
Without thinking about it, Gong Wenyu rushed over in a few arrow steps. As soon as he approached, he saw a man holding up a large sword and slashing at the people on the ground.
The person holding the knife in the grass, his hands were just about to fall, only to feel that his wrists were numb, as if he had been shocked, and the big knife in his hand had flown out several feet away.
Before everyone could react, they saw a figure flashing in front of them, and Gong Wenyu had come to them. "Friend, so many of you are besieging and killing a dwarf, if this spreads, I am not afraid of the ridicule of my friends in the rivers and lakes. ”
Although I don't know the identity of the person who came, the strength and body on the leg are not good at a glance. The helper repeatedly instructed that this matter should not be too much of a movement, and the identity of the person in front of him was unknown, so he could try not to have a conflict without doing anything.
Yes, the person headed by him first hugged his fists and said: "Friend, Yongle helps with private affairs, please don't get involved, if you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me." Even if we make this friend, how about it?"
Gong Wenyu also smiled slightly, hugged his fists in return, and said, "When you go out, it's certainly not a bad thing to make a few more friends." But friend, so many of you besiege a dwarf, it's too undeserved. Besides, even if he is really a heinous person, you should not be angry with the innocent dart master. I advise you to put down the knife in your hand and find the government to solve anything. ”
"You don't know how to lift. The other party was finally impatient by Gong Wenyu, raised his knife and scolded: "I also said a lot of good things, if you still don't know what to do, don't blame me for being unkind." ”
As he spoke, the knife raised by the man slashed towards Gong Wenyu.
This person is just a small leader in the gang, and his ability is not much, and before the knife fell, he was also kicked away by Gong Wenyu.
Before the others could react, one of them was kicked to the ground with a kick in the face. As the saying goes: Hitting someone doesn't slap you in the face. Let a scholar like Gong Wenyu greet him on his face when he comes out of his legs, which shows that he is also angry enough.
Seeing that it was not an opponent, the leader greeted and left with everyone disgraced.
Seeing the other party leaving, Gong Wenyu hurriedly squatted down to check the dwarf's injuries.
Reaching out to probe the other party's snort, he found that the other party was angry, and Gong Wenyu immediately sent him real power.
With the support of Zhenli, the dwarf seems to have gotten a bowl of life-saving water, and his face is more popular.
"Thank you for your help. It was a long time before the dwarf opened his eyes.
"When the road is uneven, draw a knife to help, don't worry. ”
The dwarf said: "Hero, since you helped me, then please be a good person to do it to the end." ”
Gong Wenyu: "Brother Tai still needs anything." ”
The dwarf said: "Seeing that the hero is upright, he is not afraid of your jokes when he says it." I am a subordinate of Changle Palace, and I am here to collect information about the Yongle Gang. Not long ago, I got news that Zhu Changle, the leader of the Yongle Gang, had obtained a treasure. But at that time, he also found out about us undercover agents. In order to be able to send the information out, we sacrificed a group of our people in order to dispel Zhu Changle's guard, while I hid in the dart box carried by the dart master, hoping to hide from the world. In the end, he still did not escape this catastrophe, and even more affected many dart masters. I only hope that the hero can spread the news and let the people of Changle Palace know. If nothing else, but to avenge those who died innocently and tragically. ”
Gong Wenyu listened to it and said in his heart: The kind-hearted and ruthless Yongle Gang sacrificed so many people for one piece of intelligence. There is also the Changle Palace, in order to be able to send the information out, even his own people were sacrificed.
"Then what kind of treasure did Zhu Changle get, so that they were so unscrupulous and let you sacrifice at any cost?" Gong Wenyu asked curiously.
"Yes, one...... Emerald ......"
After burying everyone's bodies, Gong Wenyu hurried away.
It was supposed to be just a visit, but it turned out to be a fight between two major gangs.
None of these brothers is easy to mess with, and they will be in trouble in the future.
