Chapter 111: Murder with a knife
Gongsun Pu's first reaction was that his deeds were exposed, so he immediately drew a knife and slashed the two nearest soldiers, and then ran out of the village.
Wei Jinchen snorted coldly, rode his horse to chase, Gongsun Pu knew that he couldn't outrun Wei Jinchen who was riding a horse no matter what, his eyes leaked a fierce light, and he suddenly turned around and slashed at the horse's leg, but Wei Jinchen pulled the horse rope, and the horse under his crotch immediately raised his front hooves and neighed in the sky, escaping a catastrophe, Wei Jinchen on horseback pulled out his sword from the saddle and stabbed Gongsun Pu's throat with lightning speed.
Gongsun Pu tried his best to dodge sideways, but he was still stabbed in the right arm, under the pain, the big knife in his hand almost came off, before he came back to his senses, Wei Jinchen slapped the horse's back, jumped up in the air, stepped down, kicked Gongsun Pu's forehead, Gongsun Pu fell to the ground on his back, and fainted.
Gongsun Pu's strength is not strong, Liu Xiu was beaten under him and had no power to fight back, so he had to use tricks to get out, but he was abused like a child in front of Wei Jinchen, and he was dealt with in three or two clicks.
Wei Jinchen glanced at Gongsun Pu on the ground with disdain, and proudly ordered his subordinates who followed: "Tie him up!"
The reason why Wei Jinchen is like this is because there will be a grizzled young man who claims to be a villager from a neighboring village, because he saw Gongsun Pu and Liu Xiu making a deal and letting Liu Xiu go by the Changdang Lake outside the village, and was chased and killed by Gongsun Pu, so he had to come to expose it.
Wei Jinchen was overjoyed when he heard this, he was already at odds with Gongsun Pu, and this time he finally had a great opportunity to get rid of him, how could he not know how to cherish it, this is the scene just now!
Wow!
After Gongsun Pu was tied to a pillar, a soldier woke him up with cold water, and Wei Jinchen saw him open his eyes and asked coldly, "Gongsun Pu, are you guilty?"
Gongsun Pu drooped his head and argued weakly: "I don't know what General Wei said, what did his subordinates do, you want to treat me like this?"
Wei Jinchen didn't expect Gongsun Pudu to come to such a point and began to deny it, and asked: "Are you greedy for Liu Xiu's treasures, and after killing a soldier, you changed him into a military uniform and secretly let Liu Xiu go?"
Gongsun Pu shouted and said: "General Wei, I just went to the outside of the village to find Liu Xiu's traces, as soon as you come back, you will send someone to besiege me, and put such a big hat on me, although we usually have discord, but you can't spray people with blood like this, right?"
Gongsun Pu thought that what he had just done was seamless, Liu Xiu, the only one who knew the inside story, had already run away, and the soldier had been killed, and it was impossible to prove himself, and now he couldn't figure out where Wei Jinchen knew about this, and now he could only deny it.
Wei Jinchen shook the album he had found out of his body in front of him and said, "Do you still want to quibble? What is this?"
Gongsun Pu glanced up and sneered: "This is just a picture album, it was obtained by a subordinate by chance, is there any problem?"
Wei Jinchen didn't expect Gongsun Pu to still refuse to admit it, and instructed an adjutant general next to him: "Bring the kid who reported Gongsun Pu to General Ben, I want to see how he quibbles!"
Gongsun Pu was shocked, and his heart was terrible, could it be that there were still others who saw his deal with Liu Xiu? Just when he was suspicious, the deputy general hurried back to reply to Wei Jinchen and said, "General, that kid is gone!"
"What did you say?" Wei Jinchen said angrily, "What the hell is going on?"
The adjutant general replied: "He took advantage of the unpreparedness of the two guards to knock them out and then put on their military uniforms and fled!"
Wei Jinchen was angry and scolded: "Waste!"
Gongsun Pu originally thought that he had been sentenced to death, but he didn't expect that the peaks and loops would turn, and the ups and downs of life were too exciting, and he was sure that the person Wei Jinchen said must be Liu Xiu, this kid probably wanted to get rid of himself by Wei Jinchen's hand, but he didn't succeed, so he ran away!
"General Wei, the last general chased all the way out of the village just now because he found a very suspicious person, but I didn't expect him to turn back boldly and make this divisive scheme, and we were all fooled!"
Although there are still many doubts in this matter, but without a witness, Wei Jinchen can't take Gongsun Pu for the time being, he can't kill him with just a picture album, right?
"If you don't have a ghost in your heart, why did you run away when you hurt someone just now?"
Gongsun Pu rolled his eyes and thought of a countermeasure.
"The last general knows that there are many places that offend General Wei in ordinary times, and just now I thought that General Wei wanted to declare a personal vendetta, so he resisted, and I hope General Wei will forgive me!"
Gongsun Pu because of the smell of the county guard, privately kidnapped a lot of young women for his enjoyment, this is an open secret in the barracks, and Gongsun Pu also relied on the protection of the county guard, on the surface he was very respectful to Wei Jinchen, but he didn't take him seriously in private, if it weren't for Wei Jinchen in Chang'an also had a certain relationship, Gongsun Pu would have found a way to replace him!
knew that Gongsun Pu was talking nonsense, but Wei Jinchen had no choice, he was too stiff, and he was not good to anyone, after all, he didn't get real evidence, and the human evidence ran away, so he couldn't be convicted of rebellion.
"Gongsun Pu, no matter what, you are still suspicious, and you injured your own people just now, General Ben will punish you for three months, can you be convinced?"
Gongsun Pu borrowed the slope to get off the donkey and said: "Convincing!"
"Okay, General Ben will let you make meritorious contributions, if you can catch Liu Xiu, General Ben can not blame the past!"
"Thank you, General Wei!"
Even if Wei Jinchen doesn't say it, Gongsun Pu will not let go of Liu Xiu who deceived him, this bastard still wants to borrow a knife to kill people, fortunately he is clever, otherwise he may really be killed by Wei Jinchen!
With a sense of anger, Gongsun Pu took a team of soldiers and horses and a yellow dog raised in the barracks to search for Liu Xiu's whereabouts like crazy.
Liu Xiu really didn't run far, he found that the strategy of killing people with a knife was not effective, he knocked out the guards of the soldiers, and when he fled to the entrance of the village, he happened to meet a person, it was a pig killer in the village, this pig killer had also received Liu Xiu and Mo Xiaoxian and others to save their lives, when he learned that Liu Xiu was being chased and killed by the official army, he led him to a flooded bridge on the edge of Changdang Lake, and let Liu Xiu hide in a small stone cave under the bridge that only allowed one person.
Originally, the pig killer also wanted to find some thatch to cover Liu Xiu, but Gongsun Pu happened to come here with people, and after seeing the pig killer on the bridge, Gongsun Pu asked him if he had seen a stranger passing by here, and the pig killer signaled no.
At this moment, the yellow dog brought by Gongsun Pu kept barking under the bridge, and the pig killer was shocked, which made them find Liu Xiu, and they were so sorry for their benefactor, so they pulled out the pig-killing knife from their waists, and the knife fell, and the yellow dog was hacked to death.
