Chapter 22 Return to Haozhou and plot to save people

Just after noon.

Li Qingfeng was in the guest room, worried about how to rescue the two Zhishan, and was thinking about it......

Bang......

There was a sound and the door was pushed open instantly, only to see Zhao Bo rushing in in a hurry and shouting: "Senior Brother Qingfeng is not good, then Governor Cai wants to ...... Uncle Xuanzhen and Senior Brother Zhishan will be beheaded on July 18, that is, at three o'clock at noon the day after tomorrow!"

Zhao Bo was so angry that he ran too fast, and he was already out of breath when he spoke.

He listened to the crowd in the street talking about the fact that the Governor of Cai was going to behead the disciple of the Upper Puritans the day after tomorrow, but at first he still couldn't believe it, but then he ran to the city wall, and when he saw the notice in black and white, he knew that it was true, and then quickly ran back to announce the matter.

When Li Qingfeng heard him say this, he was stunned in his heart, and said, "You go and call Senior Brother Bai and Miss Yizi quickly." At this time, his martial arts skills were lost, and this saving thing had to be carefully planned.

Not long after, Zhao Bo, Bai Jiyu, and Zhou Yizi hurried over.

The three of them sat down around the wooden table in turn, and Zhao Bo said angrily: "Let's rush in to save people while it's dark, and kill the thieves of the two saints of the Western Regions." ”

Bai Jiyu sighed: "What the third senior brother said is certainly good, but the officers and soldiers inside and outside the prefect's mansion, not to mention there are two or three hundred people, plus the two saints and two evil thieves in the Western Regions, it is not easy to escape from Haozhou City together." ”

Li Qingfeng said secretly, "The day after tomorrow is the day after tomorrow, even if the Qing Sect is notified at this time, the thirty-six disciples of the Tiangang Array rush to support, it is far from quenching the thirst." ”

Zhou Yizi frowned slightly, although saving people was a matter of the Puritans, but since she met Li Qingfeng, she had long forgotten the historical grievances between the two factions.

Li Qingfeng saw that she was thoughtful, and suddenly realized in his heart, and said in his heart, "Yizi is the leader of the White Lotus Sect, and besides, the White Lotus Sect branch altars are all over the south of the Yangtze River, and there are many martial arts strong people in the altars. Thinking about this, he looked at Yizi.

The two looked at each other, Zhou Yizi already understood what he meant, saving people at the moment is an urgent matter, since Li Qingfeng has a request, she is obligated to agree, even if this matter is difficult and difficult to do.

Zhou Yizi said: "I know friends in the rivers and lakes, maybe I can ask them for help, and I can save your uncle and uncle from coming out, but it's just ......" Zhou Yizi deliberately said halfway.

"Since Miss Yizi can invite friends in the rivers and lakes to help, my disciples of the Qing Sect must be a great favor and never dare to forget, what is the unspeakable secret of the girl?" Bai Jiyu said sincerely.

"Since Bai Shaoxia is eager to save people, I will say it bluntly, those martial arts friends I mentioned are all from the White Lotus Sect, they are not far from here, and they can reach Mizhou City in one day. Zhou Yizi said.

Zhao Bo and Bai Jiyu listened to her, and their faces showed sadness. The two of them grew up learning martial arts in the Upper Puritan Sect since childhood, and listened to the master's stern warnings not to join the evil spirits and defilements, let alone associate with the people of the White Lotus Sect.

Zhao Bo thought to himself, "Now that I want to ask for help from those thieves of the White Lotus Sect, I would rather go alone to save the second senior brother." "He has a deep hostility towards the White Lotus Sect in his heart, and he only says that the White Lotus Sect and the two saints of the Western Regions are all the same dog.

Li Qingfeng saw that although the two junior disciples were unwilling, there was nothing else to do about it, so he said: "It's decided like this, even if the master and his old man blame him, I will bear it." As a senior brother, he made this decision, and Bai Jiyu and Zhao Bo had to comply.

"Without further ado, Yizi will go and inform them, and save people from the execution ground outside the city of Haozhou the day after tomorrow!" Li Qingfeng said.

"Yes! Zhou Yizi replied with a smile on his face and turned to leave.

It's July 18.

Outside the city of Maozhou, the execution ground is set up in an open place, looking at the colorful flags fluttering around the execution ground, the crowd is restless, and the water that has been surrounded is impassable.

Zhou Yizi, Li Qingfeng and others had already taken off their Taoist robes, taken off their Taoist crowns, changed into ordinary people's clothes, and blended in the crowd to avoid people's eyes.

In the center of the trial table, a fat person sitting in an official uniform was Cai Pei, the prefect of Haozhou, and the two saints of the Western Regions were sitting on both sides. Around the execution ground, there were dozens of strong and strong men.

Li Qingfeng searched around, but he didn't see Senior Brother Zhishan and Senior Uncle Xuanzhen, and he was secretly anxious in his heart, and he vaguely felt ominous.

"Yizi, have all your White Lotus Sect subordinates arrived?" Li Qingfeng asked in a low voice.

"I have flown a pigeon the day before yesterday to pass the book to my Changzhou branch of teaching, according to the schedule, I can be here before noon today. Zhou Yizi said.

"Brother Qingfeng, I always feel that something is wrong, there are only about a dozen officers and soldiers around this execution ground, how can the two saints of the Western Regions be so negligent?" Zhou Yizi wondered.

"I feel the same way, there is fraud in it!" Li Qingfeng said.

"When the time comes, let's act when the opportunity comes!" Bai Jiyu said.

"Hmm!" Zhou Yizi said.

As soon as noon arrived, Cai Pei raised his hand and signaled, "Bring the prisoners up!"

"Bring the prisoner to the field,......," the master next to him shouted.

After a while, two jailers heard the sound, escorted Zhang Zhishan, and Xuanzhen Daoist came on the field one after the other, both of them wore wrist-thick iron chains on their hands and feet, wearing prison uniforms, unkempt, with blood marks on their bodies, and their lips were chapped and white, and they looked very weak.

Seeing that three o'clock in the afternoon was approaching, the two saints of the Western Regions were secretly anxious in their hearts, hoping that the disciples of the Upper Puritans would come and rob the prisoners as soon as possible, so that they could catch them all, but they waited for a long time, and they didn't even see the shadow of the Puritans!

Zhou Yizi was also secretly anxious in his heart, and it was about to be three o'clock in the afternoon, and Zhao Dayong's men and horses in the Changzhou branch had not yet appeared.

At this time, it was the middle of summer, the scorching sun was on the head, Cai Pei was already sweating profusely sitting at the trial table, and he just wanted to quickly kill the two and return home.

Seeing that it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, Cai Pei of the Western Regions Poison Saint made an eye, and Cai Pei immediately stretched out his hand and threw out the red stick, shouting: "Three o'clock in the afternoon has arrived, behead the prisoner and show it to the public!"

The two executioners swallowed a sip of liquor, walked behind the two of them, sprayed the wine on the edge of the knife, and under the strong light of the scorching sun, the white light of the blade was very dazzling, and they raised their knives to cut off the heads of the two......

"Leave people under the knife......" Suddenly, a woman's voice spread throughout the execution ground.

Everyone looked for prestige, but when they saw a woman in a cloth shirt standing on the edge of the execution ground, Cai Pei saw this and said: "Who is here, how can you talk about keeping people under the knife?"

At this time, Zhou Yizi dressed up in the clothes of a folk girl, and deliberately painted his face as dark as the farmer, and the two saints of the Western Regions did not recognize it from a distance.

"The little woman and her cousin went to visit relatives in Beiping Mansion, and when they passed by here, they saw that the adults wanted to behead these two people, but they just dared to ask what crime these two people committed?" Zhou Yizi said crisply.

Cai Pei saw that she was dressed as a folk girl and had a simple temperament, but she was just a kind woman and very curious.

At the moment, he shouted: "Where is the village girl, leave quickly, don't join in this excitement." ”
