It is said that the old man found the black-clothed man on the firewood pile, and was about to interrogate him, when there was a rapid knock at the door, which frightened the old man and turned around, trembling all over.

"Tell me, who are you? Is the official outside the door here to arrest you?" asked the old man taking two steps back, his right hand trembling and pointing at the man in black.

The man in black groped around his waist for a long time, handed it to the old man and said: "I am the Jinyi guard of the dynasty, just because this king of Jinling gathered people to rebel, and we and other benevolent and righteous people are heartbroken, so I gathered the Beijing division to kill corrupt officials and corrupt officials, and I also want those scum who rebelled in the court, cough cough ......."

The old man took the waist card and looked at it, and it was true, so he squatted down with a smile on his face, and said to the man in black: "I will block you with firewood, don't make a noise later, all the old man has his own arrangements!"

The old man brought a long barrage to block the man in black, and then he hobbled towards the door.

"Who? What is the matter with all this noise in the middle of the night?" the old man asked the man outside the door, coughing, opening the door.

The person who appeared at the door was not Jinling's guard at all, but a few people in black, and I saw the person who was the leader, took off his scarf, and asked anxiously: "Old man, we are the forbidden army guards of the current dynasty, just because this King of Jinling is a traitor and thief of the country, so he gathered a crowd to rob and kill, just because someone failed to tell the truth, can the old gentleman let us in and hide, so as not to be poisoned by these thieves." ”

"Okay, you guys come in first, we have a small courtyard here, please take care of the military masters, please come in!" the old man got out of the way and waved his hand to bring in the four men in black.

As soon as the man in black entered the courtyard, the old man closed the door again, raised his right hand and was about to tell them that the brocade guards who were hiding behind the firewood saw one of them in black clothes, with a piece of clothing exposed at the waist, which was very familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

"You are really the guards of the Imperial City Forbidden Army, why do I look at the eyes?" the old man suddenly became a little suspicious and asked tentatively.

"We were transferred from Jiangnan, and it was only less than a month since we took office, and this thief rushed into the city, and the Jingshi didn't have time to shop, so the old man would be so unfamiliar. One of the chubby men in black ripped off his face towel and puffed out his eyes.

A "snap" sounded coming, and I saw the man in black who was the leader slap the drum eye, blinked his eyes and said: "You bastard, the old people are kind, let us in to hide, and deceive people, it's really not a thing!"

The black-clothed man at the head turned around, bent down and clenched his fists and said to the old man: "Actually, we were transferred from Yunnan, because this is a military aircraft, so the drum eye deliberately deceived you, some words are confidential, please forgive the old man, by the way, you have something to eat in the house, this night of running, jumping up and down, the stomach has long been empty!"

The old man looked at the man in black who was the leader, and laughed very reluctantly, then bent down and waved his hand: "Come with me first! It's all coarse tea and light rice, don't dislike it, please come in!"

The old man carried the oil lamp, pushed open the door of the house, beckoned a few people to sit down, and immediately shouted to the inner room: "Old woman, there are guests at home, get up quickly, go and take out the cooking cakes, and entertain these military masters!"

The old woman's response came from here, followed by the voice of getting out of bed: "Here you are! What kind of guests are you here in the middle of the night? Why are you here at this time?"

The old woman came out of the back room with her hair in a bun, and when she saw the black-clothed people in front of her, she came to the old man's side with a panicked expression, and whispered: "Who are these people? It can't be a thief who robbed in the middle of the night, right?"

The black-clothed man in the lead stood up, smiled and pointed to his subordinates and said, "We are the guards of the forbidden army of the Beijing Division, the old man doesn't need to be afraid, it's not the villain!"

"Okay, you talk first, I'll make you some food, alas! I don't know who is the good guy and who is the bad guy!" the old woman muttered, and went into the room on the left.

The black-clothed man at the head of the group, his eyes rolled a few times, then he sat down, and came over with his ear and asked: "Old man! We failed this assassination, and many brothers have been separated.

"Well, it's not a secret, I did hear noisy footsteps outside just now, and then I got up and left the hospital, and I did see someone jumping into the courtyard, and then leaping onto the roof, and finally there was no trace, but I don't know if the adult asked, but is this person?" the old man's eyes flickered, and he said after thinking for a while.

The black-clothed man led by this man saw that the old man was talking in a hurry, and his eyes flashed during the period, so he sneered and waved his hand: "The old man doesn't have to be afraid, I'm just looking for him, since he has left safely, it's good!"

The man in black turned around, glanced at his subordinates, and then whispered in his ear for a while, only to see two men in black go out.

The black-clothed man at the head turned around, and when he saw that the old man didn't dare to look directly at him, he already understood a little, so he immediately sat down: "Old man! Our leader! Although his martial arts are strong, he has been wounded by arrows, and if he is not treated in time, he is afraid that he will not last long.

The old man raised his head, looked at the man in black, and said with some anxiety: "How do you know that he is seriously injured? and how do you know that he jumped into my courtyard? As you say, why don't you take him with you?

"This ...... In that situation just now, many Jinling guards surrounded and intercepted us, and the leader, in desperation, asked us to disperse separately and run away one by one! Alas! But he himself stayed behind to cover us and others, and was wounded by a hidden arrow, and originally planned to come back to rescue us, but at this time, the chasing soldiers were surging, so they had to leave temporarily first, and wait for the opportunity to return to the rescue. The man in black looked left and right, his eyes dripping and turning.

"Oh oh! I see, the military master is waiting here, I'll go first and see again, why is this old woman so long, she hasn't brought things out to a few people, you sit down first, I'll go and go back." The old man stood up and walked towards the room on his left.

The leader of the man in black summoned his subordinates and whispered in his ear for a while, only to see his subordinates tiptoe behind the old man.

The old woman in the room was sitting by the stove, adding firewood to the stove, breaking the grain pole into several pieces, putting it in one after another, standing up, patting the dust on her hand, and uncovering the lid of the pot.

"Old woman, how are you doing cooking for them? I'll come in and take a look, don't let the military master go hungry?" The old man walked towards the stove, and when he passed by the window, he inadvertently turned his head to look at it, and couldn't help but tremble with fright......
