Chapter 572
Yu Fan said: "Thank you for reminding me, the lower officials will keep it in mind." ”
Li Qiufeng nodded and said, "Are the two of you here also to find Miss Huang?"
As soon as he said this, Miss Huang, who was standing behind Yuan Jue, was stunned, and turned her head to look at Yu Fan, her eyes full of horror and doubt.
But I heard Yu Fan say: "Not bad." Xiaguan went to the Yamen of Xiuwu County yesterday to meet Lord Huang. He was very troubled and talked about the disappearance of Miss Huang. Since the lower officials are county officials, it is their duty to arrest thieves and ensure the safety of the county. I went to the Yamen today to inspect the matter, and I heard a report that Miss Huang had been found in a nunnery in Wangmiao Village. Xia Guan heard that Yin Zhutou and Master Feng of the Yamen personally brought dozens of fast catchers to Wangmiao Village, wanting to rescue Miss Huang. Xia Guan was afraid that Yin Zhutou and the others would lose, so he rushed over. just went halfway, but met Master Feng and others unexpectedly. Master Feng said that the news that Miss Huang was kidnapped to Wangmiao Village was a lie, but the lower officials were afraid that Master Feng would be negligent for a while and be taken advantage of by traitors, so they did not go back to Xiuwu County with them, but rushed to the Kule Nunnery in the mountain behind Wangmiao Village with seven or eight brothers from the yamen. It's just that when we arrived at the nunnery, it was empty, and there wasn't even a ghost. We followed the footprints to the back mountain. Unexpectedly, I lost my way in the mountains and forests, and the more I walked, the more remote I went, and finally these Fuso warriors suddenly appeared, we were caught off guard, Yuan Dianshi and others died under the secret weapons of these people, it was really sad to think about. ”
When Li Qiufeng saw him talk about the death of Yuan Dianshi and others, there was no sadness on his face, and he thought to himself: "I'm afraid that the death of the surnamed Yuan is in the hands of the killer, and it is in your arms." It's just that although he thought so in his heart, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and he said: "Lord Yu, some things are not as you think. Miss Huang ran away from home, and she really had unspeakable hardships. Please also ask Lord Yu to go back to Xiuwu County first, and after this matter is settled, Miss Huang will naturally turn home, and Lord Yu does not have to worry. ”
Yu Fan was stunned and said, "Listen to what the adults mean, do you know where Miss Huang is hiding?"
As he spoke, he looked over at Situ Qiao, Yuanjue and the others. Miss Huang had just heard that Yu Fan had come to look for her, and she had already hid behind Yuan Jue. It was Yu Fan who glanced around, and only saw a dozen female nuns, naturally it would not be Miss Huang. It's just that the suspicion in his heart has not disappeared, but he can't force Li Qiufeng to ask, but his face is uncertain, and the long sword in his right hand trembled slightly.
Li Qiufeng guessed that Yu Fan doubted him, but he didn't want to explain, he just shook his head and said to Fan: "Lord Yu, Miss Huang's matter, don't interfere." However, although those Fuso warriors have retreated, these people are vicious and vicious, and they will definitely not stop there. When the two of them returned to the county seat, they must be careful on the way. ”
Yu Fan saw that Li Qiufeng did not answer his question, although he was unhappy, he couldn't have a seizure, so he had to nod, arched his hand at Li Qiufeng, and turned around to leave. Li Qiufeng said: "Lord Yu, please stay." What should we do with the bodies of this Master of the Classics and several other Xiuwu County dukes?"
Yu Fan was stunned, and then remembered that Yuan Dianshi and others were killed by Fusang warriors, which was really a big case. Fang Cai was unhappy in his heart, and only thought about leaving this place, forgetting that the corpses of these people were still in the woods. Although Yuan Dianshi was a petty official who did not enter the stream, he just died here with six public servants, and Xiuwu County must investigate this case clearly. If Li Qiufeng and the others were not at the scene, he and Yu Chengji could naturally pat their butts and leave. It's just that the more than ten people in front of him saw the corpses of Yuan Dianshi and others with their own eyes, and they couldn't hide it if they wanted to hide it. It was because he groaned slightly, and then said to Li Qiufeng: "These brothers were killed by the Fusang warriors, and the lower officials must report to the county magistrate." After the lower officials first turned back to the street gate of Xiuwu County, they explained the passage to the magistrate of the county in detail, and then Yin Zhutou came to the autopsy with him. ”
Li Qiufeng said: "But if the remains of these brothers are ignored like this, I am afraid that they will be devoured by the beasts in the mountains." At that time, not only will it be disrespectful to the deceased, but if it is a pretend, I am afraid that there are some things that will be difficult for adults to explain. ”
Before his words fell, Yu Chenghei raised his eyebrows and said, "If according to the will of the adults, do you want us to guard these corpses here and wait for the Xiuwu County Yamen to send someone to come to check them?
Yu Fan saw Yu Chenghe's words against Li Qiufeng, and he was anxious, for fear of making Li Qiufeng unhappy and embarrassing the two, which inevitably delayed the big event. It was he who shouted angrily at Cheng Hei: "Shut up! How can you speak here, why don't you make amends to the adults quickly?!"
Yu Chenghei was humiliated by Yuan Dianshi before, and he was already holding his stomach. At this time, when he saw Li Qiufeng talking to Yu Fan, he had the intention of suppressing the above, and he couldn't bear it anymore in his heart, so he spoke first to stand up for Yu Fan. At this time, he saw Yu Fan scolding himself, but he was not afraid, his eyes stared at Li Qiufeng viciously, and his eyes were full of provocation.
Yu Fan secretly thought that things were going to be worse, and when he was thinking about how to cover up the past, he saw Li Qiufeng smile slightly and said, "This little brother is just afraid that he will be wrong." I mean, you might as well cover the bodies of these brothers with branches, and then move the branches away when the adults and Yin Zhutou and the others return here, wouldn't it not only save the bodies of these brothers, but also not embarrass Lord Yu?"
Yu Fan was relieved to see that Li Qiufeng was not annoyed. It's not that he's not afraid of the strong autumn wind, but before the big thing is accomplished, he can't make side effects. The origin of this brocade guard is unknown, his martial arts are strong, and he is extremely wise. If he annoys him, he is afraid that what his people have worked hard to plan will inevitably come to naught. In this way, the lives of hundreds of clansmen were sacrificed in vain. It was because Yu Fan had secretly made up his mind to suffer humiliation, but he would never be able to turn his face with this brocade guard before the success of the big thing. He made up his mind, and after listening to Li Qiufeng's words, he immediately arched his hand and said, "What the adults said is true." The subordinate was careless and inconsiderate. As for the subordinates who offended the adults, the subordinates could not escape the blame, and asked the adults to forgive the sins."
Li Qiufeng saw that when Yu Fan spoke, his face remained unchanged, his voice was calm, and he looked half heartbroken. knew in his heart that this person had other plans, but he didn't want to expose it, so he immediately said in a deep voice: "Lord Yu, you don't have to be so polite. We just met in the water, and we can't talk about any crimes. Since Lord Yu still has important matters, let's leave it at that. ”
After he finished speaking, he arched his hand to Yu Fan, and then turned to Situ Qiao and said, "Mr. Situ, let's go." ”
Situ Qiao had long looked at Yu Chenghei's displeasure, and even Yu Fan hated it. Hearing that the autumn wind was leaving, it was right in the middle of it. Immediately smiled and said, "Brother Li, I have been waiting for your words for a long time." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Yu Chenghei, sneered, and then turned to Yuan Jue and the others and said, "Let's not delay the two officials, let's go!"
Li Qiufeng, Yuanjue and the others walked towards the west side with Situ Qiao, and walked straight out of dozens of zhang, before Situ Qiao lowered his voice and said to Li Qiufeng: "These two boys have other plans, Brother Li must not trust them." ”
Li Qiufeng was stunned and said, "What does Mr. Situ mean by this?"
Situ Qiao said: "These two people have suspicious origins and strange whereabouts, and they are definitely not ordinary officials. Those thieves have been looking for trouble with them three times and twice, but I am afraid that these two people have some entanglement with the Yanagi clan. ”
Li Qiufeng shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Situ, I'm afraid you're wrong this time." Those Fuso samurai were definitely not Yagyu Soiwa's subordinates. ”
Situ Qiao's heart sank, and he said: "Brother Li, haven't you seen the hidden weapons used by those thieves? I have seen this kind of hidden weapon in Hutouyan, and I heard Mr. Liu say that this secret weapon is the unique weapon of the killers of the Liu Sheng clan, and all the martial arts sects in the Central Plains do not have this kind of secret weapon. ”
Li Qiufeng said: "Fang Cai Li also thought that these Fusang people were the killers of the Yanagi clan. It was only later when I saw the blades used by these people that I realized that I had been completely wrong. Although the killers of the Yanagi clan also use this kind of cross-shaped hidden weapon, their weapons are all long swords. However, the blades in the hands of these killers are long knives, and this kind of knife is completely different from the knives used by the martial arts masters of the Central Plains. These people are indeed Fuso samurai, but they are definitely not Yagyu Soiwa's subordinates. ”
The more Situ Qiao listened, the more confused he became, and said, "Brother Li, I don't understand what you say." Aren't the thieves headed by the old bastard Yanagi Zongyan?"
Li Qiufeng thought that the origin of Liu Sheng Zongyan was extremely secret, and listening to Situ Qiao's tone, Liu Yong seemed to have told him that Liu Zongyan, who appeared in the Imperial Tomb, Yong'an City, and Hutou Rock, was faked by Fusang. It's just that the origin of Liu Sheng Zongyan and Liu Zongyan doesn't know if I want to come to Situ Bridge. He only thought that the thieves were all subordinates of Yanagi Zongyan, which was a big mistake. But Situ Qiao acted strangely, and Li Qiufeng had always been jealous of him, and he didn't want to tell him the origin of Yanagi Zongyan. It was Li Qiufeng who thought for a moment, and then said to Situ Qiao: "In fact, there is not only one group of Japanese robbers who harass the Ming Dynasty. The Yanagi clan came from the bitter cold land outside the Guan, and naturally they were Yanagi Zongyan's subordinates. The wokes on the southeast coast are pirates, and they may be angry with the Yanagi clan, but they don't belong to each other. I look at the Fusang warriors who are chasing and killing Yu Fan today, and they are the Japanese on the southeast coast, and they have nothing to do with the Yanagi clan. It's just that Yu Fan said that these warriors chased and killed him because he offended the Japanese when he was an official, which is very unreliable. ”
Situ Qiao suddenly realized, slapped his thigh, and said: "I'll just say that these two boys are unreliable, and they really hide everything from us." Brother Li, we have met with these two boys many times, how can there be such a coincidence in the world? I guess these two boys may have been following us all the time, trying to beat our idea. For example, for the head of Guan Yu on Brother Li's body, I am afraid of bad intentions. ”
Li Qiufeng thought secretly in his heart: "If you want to say that you have bad intentions for this Guan Yu head on my body, who can compare to you Situ Qiao?" Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng sneered and said: "Mr. Situ, you left the Kule Nunnery first, why did you fall behind Li, this is strange." ”
