Chapter 17, the government escaped
After the door of the dark room was opened, no one rushed in, and no sound was heard, Chen Qi and Meng Xiaofan waited for a while, and then carefully walked out of the dark room.
Out of the dark room, there was no abnormality, the two knew that things would not be so simple, and they were more careful at the moment, Chen Qi protected Meng Xiaofan behind him.
When he walked to the middle of the house, Chen Qi pushed Meng Xiaofan away, and then turned sideways, and a sword stabbed against Chen Qi's shirt.
Dodging this sword, Chen Qi was unstable, and another sword stabbed at him, Chen Qi continued to dodge, but after dodging this time, he immediately raised a palm and attacked the other party.
It was a middle-aged man who attacked Chen Qi, a long sword in his hand was very sharp, he dodged Chen Qi's palm, and then attacked Chen Qi with another sword.
Chen Qi turned his palm into a sword and attacked directly, and the two sides attacked back and forth for fifty moves, and Chen Qi hit the other party with a move of "Tianwu asked" in Tianwen swordsmanship.
If this palm is changed to a sword style, the person's right arm is no longer there at the moment, Rao is so, after receiving Chen Qi's palm, the person has been seriously injured, and the long sword in his hand has also fallen to the ground. Seriously wounded, the man immediately fled the room.
Chen Qi picked up the long sword underground, and at this moment, Meng Xiaofan also came to Chen Qi's side, and asked with concern, "You're not injured, are you?"
"No, there must be an ambush outside, you must be careful when you go out, I will attract them, you can leave when you see the opportunity, leave me alone." β
"What about you?"
"This place can't trap me yet, don't worry. β
Meng Xiaofan nodded, and then followed Chen Qi towards the door.
The two stopped at the door, Chen Qi just poked his head out, observed the situation outside, and found that there was nothing abnormal, so he led Meng Xiaofan outside.
As soon as he got out of the door, with a voice of "Thief, where to go!", countless torches lit up in the courtyard, illuminating the entire courtyard as if it were day, and at the same time, countless arrows were shot at Chen Qi and Meng Xiaofan.
Chen Qi waved his long sword to block the rain of arrows and escorted Meng Xiaofan back into the house.
"You have been surrounded, you can't escape, if you know each other, come out obediently and tie your hands, I can give you a whole corpse, otherwise, I will let you have ten thousand arrows through your hearts, and then your heads will be in different places. β
Chen Qi looked into the courtyard, the courtyard was full of officers and soldiers with swords, there was a row of archers standing in front of him, talking about the prefect of Yunzhou Li Zhixing, at this moment he was dressed neatly, and the left and right were full of guards.
Meng Xiaofan said: "Dog official, do you think that you can trap the master in this way? You are too naΓ―ve, since we dare to break into your prefect's yamen, will we still be afraid of your methods? If you know each other, you will withdraw the person and send the master away, let's not violate the river water in the future, otherwise the master will burn your kennel and burn all your embezzled treasures, and then make your corruption known to everyone, see if the court can let you go?"
Li Zhixing laughed out loud and said: "The dying man has not forgotten to pour dirty water on the official, do you think that anyone will believe your words? You want to set fire, even if you put it on fire, see that if you are buried in the fire, you can still destroy the official's mansion!"
"Your grandmother's is too deceitful, if you really don't dare, I'll go and burn your treasures first. Meng Xiaofan scolded and walked towards the dark room, but the door of the dark room was closed at this time, and he went to activate the mechanism on the dresser, but it was also invalid.
"Master really underestimates you, just a prefect's yamen, the design of this dark room is a bit good. β
Chen Qi said: "Xiaofan, wait for me to rush out, you stay in the house and don't move, I have attracted all their attention, you see the right time to go first." β
Meng Xiaofan said worriedly: "There are so many people in the courtyard, and there are so many archers, can you handle it?"
Chen Qi said: "I have a countermeasure, you don't have to worry, as long as you can leave smoothly, I will be fine." β
Meng Xiaofan sighed and said: "I used to think that stealing should be good at light skills, just be smart, as for fighting, I never thought about fighting, so the master asked me to practice, I only practiced light skills and stealing skills, I have never been willing to practice those fighting kung fu, today I know that fighting is also very important." β
Chen Qi said with a smile: "Today I am the one who has caused you to suffer, if you are willing to learn martial arts, I will teach you the Tianwen swordsmanship in the future." β
Meng Xiaofan laughed and said: "I'll just say, with you, I don't need to fight, and the fight will be handed over to you in the future." β
Chen Qi smiled: "It's up to you." β
Meng Xiaofan said: "I continue to scold this dog official and attract his attention, you just have to act according to your own strategy, don't worry about me, it's my housekeeping ability to escape." β
Chen Qi smiled and nodded, then held the long sword, walked to Li Zhixing's bed, picked up two pillows and walked towards the door.
At this time, Meng Xiaofan had already taken a chair, sat in the hidden place at the door and began to scold Li Zhixing, he scolded whatever was unpleasant, and Li Zhixing did not respond at first, but Meng Xiaofan's scolding was really ugly, and the content of the scolding was not repeated.
"Archer, shoot these two thieves for me!" Li Zhixing roared.
With Li Zhixing's roar, a dense rain of arrows shot towards the house where Chen Qi and the two were located, but none of them hit the two.
Li Zhixing was extremely angry at this time, "Give me to rush in and kill these two dog thieves, as long as you rush into the house, each person will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver, those who injure two people will be rewarded with one hundred taels of silver, and those who can kill will be rewarded with two hundred taels of silver." β
After hearing Li Zhixing's words, the officials and guards who were surrounded outside, and the soldiers who Li Zhixing temporarily borrowed from the defenders, rushed to the house where Chen Qi and the others were after a short pause.
Chen Qi shook the pillow in his hand and said with a smile: "Originally, I was going to throw it out to attract the rain of arrows, but now it doesn't seem to be needed, but it can be used to smash people." β
"Haha!" Meng Xiaofan laughed.
Chen Qi raised his hand, and a pillow flew out, and at this time, a few officers and soldiers who rushed to the front stepped over the doorrail.
These people were the first to rush over, and they opened a short distance from the people behind them, and at this time they were secretly happy in their hearts, "Fifty taels are in hand!", but before the joy passed, they were hit by the pillow thrown by Chen Qi, and the pillow carried internal force, and these people were immediately smashed backwards.
Although these people were knocked down, the people who rushed behind did not stop in time, and just stepped on them, and the people in front realized that something was wrong and wanted to stop, but the people who followed closely behind did not know why, and continued to rush forward, and the poor few people who fell were trampled by their own people and screamed.
Anyway, they have already stepped on it, and the first few don't care about the underground companions at this time, but even if they want to take care of it, they can't help it at this time.
When these people stepped on their companions and stepped into the doorrail, Chen Qi also threw out another pillow, and when the pillow hit the second wave of people who were fast entering the door, Chen Qi had already arrived at the door, he didn't use a sword, he added a single palm and two feet, and instantly knocked down a large number of people from the palace.
At this time, although the archers outside were still waiting in place, the people from the government were all around the door, and they could not release their arrows.
Don't worry about the attack of bows and arrows, Chen Qi concentrates on dealing with these officials and the like, just like chopping melons and vegetables, it is very easy.
Only then did the people of these mansions understand that the two people who were trapped tonight were unusual, and the silver that the prefect had offered was not so easy to earn.
In fact, if they knew that the person who attacked Chen Qi in the house just now was seriously injured by Chen Qi, it is estimated that they would not have rushed so fast, because that person was the number one master of the mansion, Li Zhixing's bodyguard Xue Dongming.
At this time, it was too late to say anything, Chen Qi had already hit the door of the house, and there were people lying on the ground, but fortunately, Chen Qi did not use the killer, these people were just injured.
Meng Xiaofan also came out, he saw the opportunity, jumped and flew to the roof, several archers were about to draw their bows and shoot arrows, Chen Qi kicked a servant and smashed it at the archer.
"Dog officer, I will spare your dog's life for the time being, I hope you can get lost and return, otherwise he will take your dog's life one day. β
After Chen Qi finished speaking, he picked up a pillow and flew to the roof, throwing the pillow at the archer on the way.
"Let's go!"
Chen Qi and Meng Xiaofan flew away.
Watching the two leave, Li Zhixing was extremely annoyed, he didn't expect Chen Qi to be so powerful, his personal guards were invincible, and so many people arranged outside couldn't catch the two.
"A bunch of rubbish!"
Li Zhixing scolded secretly, but he immediately said to a general beside him with a smile: "Thank you General Wu for your help tonight, I hope the general will accept this kindness." β
This general Wu is a centurion of the Yong'an army stationed near Yunzhou, and the government is responsible for the security of Yunzhou in peacetime, but with the influx of a large number of victims, Li Zhixing is afraid of chaos, so he asks for help from the commander of the Yong'an army, hoping to send some soldiers to Yunzhou to help maintain order in Yunzhou.
After receiving the benefits of Li Zhixing, the chief general of the Yongan Army sent this centurion surnamed Wu to Yunzhou with his subordinates. Leaving the barracks and arriving at the bustling city of Yunzhou, there was good food and drink in the hospitality, and they were also regarded as guests, and the centurion surnamed Wu and his subordinates were very happy.
These people usually live in a side courtyard of the government, and tonight Li Zhixing personally came to ask for help, and the centurion surnamed Wu agreed without saying a word.
Originally, I thought it was to catch two small thieves, but when I encountered a hard stubble, not only did I not catch them, but most of them were injured, and even the centurion surnamed Wu was slapped by Chen Qi. Although he was also very angry in his heart, he couldn't attack at the moment, and directly took Li Zhixing's silver ticket and took his subordinates away.
After sending these soldiers away, Li Zhixing sent all the people from the government away, and then entered the dark room alone. After entering the dark room for inspection, Li Zhixing vomited blood angrily, and it took a long time to recover, "I must catch these two people!"
