Chapter 153: Negotiations Break Down
Soon, Liang Qiuci led more than 200 Li clansmen disguised as sergeants from Wancheng under the escort of a team of officers and soldiers, and then made them kneel on the ground in five columns, many of whom were good in the army.
Zhen Fu said loudly: "Mo Xiaoxian, someone has already brought it to you, how to exchange?"
Mo Xiaoxian replied: "You let them all go, let them leave on their own, and the young master will release Master Zhen in an hour!"
Zhen Fu said angrily: "You are wishful thinking, when they all run away, and you don't let them go, what should I do?"
Mo Xiaoxian teased: "Since we don't believe in each other, can we just keep the stalemate?"
Zhen Fu pretended to think for a while and said: "Okay, I promise you, but if you dare not let go, I will break you into thousands of pieces today even if I lose my son!"
Mo Xiaoxian smiled: "Don't worry, the master is very honest, you can release people!"
Zhen Fu snorted coldly, and waved his hand to signal Liang Qiu to release the people, anyway, these people were all pretending to be sergeants, just doing a show.
What everyone didn't expect was that three of the sergeants didn't pretend to scatter and flee like the others, but went straight to Mo Xiaoxian.
Zhen Fu turned his head to look at Liang Qiuci, thinking that this was his arrangement, Liang Qiuci shook his head and said that he didn't know what was going on.
"Stop!"
Mo Xiaoxian stopped the three people who ran towards him, he thought that this was Zhen Fu's plan, the purpose was to let them pretend to be from the Li clan and wait for the opportunity to rescue Zhen Chun after approaching him.
However, one of them explained eagerly: "Brother Mo, don't get me wrong, I'm Li Tong, Uncle Wen should have told you!"
"Li Tong!?"
Of course Mo Xiaoxian knew this name, Liu Xiu came to Wancheng to raise troops with them in response to Liu Bosheng, but weren't Li Tong and the others wanted by Zhen Fu and their whereabouts unknown?
Seeing that Mo Xiaoxian didn't believe him, Li informed him that he was worried about something, and explained again: "Just now, these people were all Liang Qiuci's subordinates to fake! Originally, my cousins Li Yi and Li Song and I pretended to be officers and soldiers, and planned to rescue the relatives who were imprisoned in the barracks, but halfway through, I heard that you were using Zhen Chun as a hostage at the city gate to blackmail Zhen Fu to release people, so I rushed over to help you, and just happened to meet Liang Qiuci looking for someone to pretend to be from the Li clan, so we planned and mixed in the crowd!"
Mo Xiaoxian had actually seen that there was something wrong with these people brought by Liang Qiuci, but he only thought that a small part of them might be fake, who knew that except for the Li Tong brothers, they were all fake!
"You once said a proverb when you went to Xinye to find Liu Xiu, what is it?"
Mo Xiaoxian had never met Li Tong and the others, although their words were reasonable, but it was safer to be cautious and verify that the body was safe.
Li Tong said without thinking: "The Liu family is prosperous, and the Li family is supplemented!"
Mo Xiaoxian was overjoyed and said: "Sure enough, it's you, it's not wrong now!"
Li Tong and the three of them were grateful to Mo Xiaoxian for his righteous act of risking his life to rescue the Li clan, so they came to the front and back and bowed deeply to him to express their gratitude!
"Zhen Fu, you old thing dares to deceive the master, as a punishment, the master will castrate your son!"
After that, Mo Xiaoxian pretended to be about to do it, Zhen Chun was so frightened that he peed his pants, which made Mo Xiaoxian and the others laugh, why is this product so cowardly!
"Don't do it!" Zhen Fu hurriedly said: "Shall I use two hundred taels of gold to make amends to you for your crimes?"
Hey, pity the hearts of parents all over the world! Zhen Fu and the county guard, for his son to grovel in front of so many people, so grovel and plead Mo Xiaoxian, it was really beyond everyone's expectations.
Mo Xiaoxian pretended to be very reluctant and said: "You have repeatedly broken your promises, do you want to send the master away for just two hundred taels ......of gold? Oh no, a thousand taels, not even one less!
Zhen Fu gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll let people prepare!"
The group of demon shadow guards who were watching coldly from the sidelines were very disdainful of Zhen Fu's approach, especially the red leopard had long been holding back the fire, and at this moment, when he heard that Zhen Fu was going to pay Mo Xiaoxian a thousand taels of gold, he was immediately furious.
"Zhen Fu, you are also a county guard, you have lost the emperor's face by doing this, do you think that if you save your son in this way, the emperor will not be angry?"
Zhen Fu was eager to save his son just now, but now when he heard Chibao say this, he calmed down, yes! He grovelled like this, even if he really rescued Chun'er, according to Wang Mang's character, he would be furious when he knew it, and the consequences were unpredictable!
Zhen Fu silently looked at Zhen Chun in the distance, his heart seemed to be dripping blood, it seemed that it was time to make a choice, he only hoped that Zhen Chun would not resent him as a father now!
"Chun'er, the eldest husband sacrificed his life for the country and died as he deserved, don't be afraid, Dad will avenge you by breaking their corpses into thousands of pieces!"
I'm going! This old man is coming!
Mo Xiaoxian patted Zhen Chun's shoulder and said mockingly: "Do you hear? Your father asked you to sacrifice your life for the country, don't be afraid, he is going to abandon you!"
At this moment, Zhen Chun was trembling and shouted tremblingly: "Dad, the child doesn't want to die yet, please save me!"
Zhen Fu's heart was like a knife, and he shook his head helplessly, the Li clan had been beheaded by the Red Leopard's false order, and he had no bargaining chips, what could he save him? Thinking of this, Zhen Fu glared at the Red Leopard fiercely, and almost devoured him alive.
"Old man Zhen, you won't be so ruthless, right? You have to sacrifice your own son for a thousand taels of gold, and you have to do it!" Mo Xiaoxian and the others still didn't know that the Li clan had been killed until this moment!
Zhen Fu ruthlessly said to Chibao and the others: "Let's do it!
Do it? The demon shadow guards, look at me, I look at you, they all stay in place as if they didn't hear it! What are you kidding? The glass pure fire of the little ibis alone is not something they can deal with, not to mention that there is such a real master of the Earth Fairy Realm as Mo Xiaoxian, a fool will do it with them!
Zhen Fu said angrily: "What do you mean? I have sacrificed my son, but you don't dare to do it?"
Xuan Mingzi sighed and said: "Lord Zhen, the current situation is that the enemy is strong and I am weak, it is not appropriate to fight hard, let's think about it in the long run!"
Nima!
Zhen Fu can be regarded as having completely seen through these demon shadow guards, usually dragging twenty-five or eighty-thousand, and when he sees something more ruthless, he is afraid of it, and he doesn't even dare to let go of a fart!
Mo Xiaoxian saw that the other party only cared about talking in a low voice, but he gave them a cold side, and immediately shouted dissatisfied: "Zhen Fu, what do you mean, hurry up and draw out the Dao!" For the sake of you being so concerned about your son, it's okay to let the Li clan people go without gold, and it's not that you can't bargain, you are always so insincere, which makes the little master very embarrassed, could it be that those Li clan people have been killed by you?"
Seeing that Zhen Fu and the others were collectively silent, the three brothers Mo Xiaoxian and Li Tong suddenly felt bad, and the sharp blade that Li Tongtong carried with him pressed against Zhen Chun's chest and said fiercely: "Lao Tzu will kill you first to avenge my Li family's ancestors!"
