Chapter Ninety-Six: Deep Background
Ali suddenly felt an incomparably powerful knife qi coming into the air, his eyes flashed, and the Western Regions Whip in his hand turned around, and he fought hard with Ren Jianwen's long knife like lightning.
The loud sound of "dang" shook everyone who was fighting in the field for a moment, only to see Ali and Ren Jianwen retreat a few steps backwards before they stood firm and looked at each other.
Ali didn't expect that the seemingly ordinary cloth-clothed farmer who stood next to Gao Jie just now had such a deep internal force, and he fought hard with him, and he didn't even know whether he won or lost.
Ren Jianwen's eyes were shining, and he stared at Ali tightly, and he was also surprised in his heart. You must know that he is a thousand households of Jinyi Wei, and he is a person from the commander of the Jingshi Jinyi Guard, how can his martial arts be ordinary? ! I have not encountered such a strong opponent for a long time, and in addition to being surprised, the battle intent in his chest rose, and he shouted violently, and the long knife slashed obliquely, and an inch-long sword rushed towards Ali.
With a bright knife in his eyes, and a sharp knife intent in his heart, Ali was surprised and delighted, the body of the whip stick in the Western Regions emitted a blue light, and he once again resisted the long knife that was chopping at him, and at the same time, "one heart and two uses", the stick rope dart ejected out, drawing an arc, and hitting Ren Jianwen's vest from the right side. A weapon, which was infused by him with two completely different internal force moves at the same time, was extremely weird.
Ren Jianwen has always been a calm person, but at this moment he was also taken aback by Ali's strange moves, and under the turn of his mind, he did not retreat but advanced, and the long knife in his hand suddenly retracted, just lightly touched Ali's Western Regions whip stick, and his body reversed, narrowly avoiding the blow of the rope dart, and came to Ali's left side.
Ren Jianwen Qianhu was depressed for a while, he had fought against people before, he had always pressed step by step, attacking with knives, how could he have dodged with a knife like today? ! If it weren't for the fact that yesterday's commander made the adult afraid that his identity would be exposed, he let him leave the embroidered spring knife, just took an ordinary long knife, he would definitely not have relented just now, and went down with a knife to cut the thin stick body of the whip in the Western Regions, and I am afraid that it should be this old man of the Hui nationality who dodged and avoided it at that time.
Ali didn't know Ren Jianwen's thoughts, the master duel, and the slightest opportunity to take the lead, it was an opportunity not to be missed, so he turned around and whipped and chased away.
Ren Jianwen already knew that this old man's martial arts were strong and weird, and he immediately raised twelve points of caution, the long knife in his hand was heavy, protecting his whole body, while defending steadily, while carefully observing the characteristics of Ali's moves, waiting for the opportunity, and then launching an offensive.
Wang Quanzhong sat in the sedan chair, opened the sedan curtain, looked at the battle situation in front of him, and was secretly anxious.
Before he came, he heard Ali and Daniel Zhang talk about the emergence of a top master, so he thought about it for a long time, and decided to settle the people with 20,000 taels of silver first, and try not to provoke a strong enemy; if he couldn't do it, he would forcibly recapture the goods, and then wait for the master to come in person, and then think of resolving the grievance. Wang Quanzhong has been in a high position as a giant business owner for a long time, although he is afraid of the so-called hidden master, but he has a huge power and a deep background, and he will never really be afraid of a lonely martial arts master.
This time he brought so many people, including masters like Ali and Daniel Zhang, and the other party's hidden masters did not come, it should be easy to get it, who knew that the other party only came out of three people, and blocked more than ten masters, including the chief guest elder Ali, very surprised in his heart, waved at the remaining good hands, and signaled all the siege to go up.
Seeing that the people brought by Wang Quanzhong were swarming up, the five brocade guards brought by Gao Jie and Ren Jianwen also entered the crowd together. I have to say that these helpers sent by Luo Sigong to Gao Jie are by no means general, except for Ren Jianwen of a thousand households, even these five unknown Jinyi guards are all equipped with unique skills, dealing with those guards of the Wang family are like tigers entering the flock, plus Gao Jie is like a ghost, "Hua Finger" is ghostly, and soon after, except for Daniel Zhang and Ali Master and Apprentice who are still resisting, everyone else is lying on the ground and unable to move.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Wang Quanzhong had already gotten out of the sedan chair, took out an arrow from his arms, and shot it into the sky.
Gao Jie just watched lightly and did not stop him. On the field, Ji Longfeng and Yu Hongzhi have already worked together to put Daniel Zhang, Zhang Kong, and Zhang Kai to the ground, leaving only Ali and Ren Jianwen's heads-up continues.
The martial arts of the two can be said to be comparable, but Ren Jianwen suffered the loss of weapons and was on the defensive most of the time, but Ali wanted to win the battle, but it was not something that could be done in a while, not to mention, Gao Jie and other eight people were still eyeing each other, and the victory or defeat was already very obvious.
Suddenly, Gao Jie smiled slightly and said softly, "It's here!" Hearing this, Ji Longfeng and the others looked in the direction of the gate of the Pufu Temple.
Soon, there was the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps, and the ground seemed to tremble a little, and it was obvious that a large number of people were coming.
Wang Quanzhong's face showed a look of ecstasy, and he shouted: "Mr. Ali, don't fight, they can't run away!"
When Ali heard this, he accepted the recruitment and retreated, Ren Jianwen did not chase after him, and walked to Gao Jie's side with a long knife, glanced at Gao Jie, and then stood quietly, waiting for Wang Quanzhong's follow-up move.
I saw the figure at the temple gate, a large group of people and horses pulled in, the flag was unfurled, the armor was distinct, it turned out to be the army of the Ming Dynasty.
This army is estimated to have thousands of people, only two or three hundred people entered the temple, under the command of a black-armored general, about one hundred and fifty archers knelt on one leg, stretched their bows and arrows, surrounded Gao Jie and others, behind the archers, there were lightly armored infantry, armed with spears, waiting for the battle. Outside the temple gate, from time to time you can see cavalry wearing heavy armor coming and going, shuttling and galloping, and a great battle is coming over the temple.
Wang Quanzhong returned to his old smiling face of "making money with harmony", strode towards a fifty-year-old man dressed as a civil official and a middle-aged military general in the array, and arched his hand: "Fortunately, the prefect and the master of a thousand households arrived today, or the old goods will be snatched away by the strongman!"
The old man dressed as a civil official has a white face and a long beard, and his square face has good facial features, and he looks quite upright and rigorous, and he is completely a fair and strict good official, he rides a white horse and wears an official uniform embroidered with a white pheasant, which is Zhang Honglin, the governor of Puzhou.
And the middle-aged military general rode on a yellow high-headed horse, with a sallow face, cold eyes, a copper helmet and bronze armor, a big knife in his hand, a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and a majestic style. This person is the chief general of the Puzhou garrison of Qianhu, and the general of Qianhu Fan Dayong.
Zhang Honglin and Fan Dayong listened to Wang Quanzhong's words and glanced at each other, Fan Dayong urged him to step forward and shouted at Gao Jie and the others: "You and other strong people dare to do robbers and bandits in broad daylight, and they will be arrested quickly!"
The corners of Ren Jianwen's mouth twitched, revealing a hint of ridicule, and he looked at this Qianhu general playfully.
Gao Jie pretended to be frightened and said: "Wronged! The villain was born in a poor country and has never seen much of the world, this general must not scare me! Do you look at me as a simple, kind, delicate and elegant young man, like a robber and a bandit?"
Fan Dayong snorted coldly and said: "People can't look good, what's so strange about robbers looking good?! Don't mess around anymore, let's bow down and arrest together, and wait until I shoot arrows together, no matter how great your skills are, you will instantly be like a hedgehog, and ten thousand arrows will pierce your heart!"
Gao Jie patted his chest and said, "General, you can't just listen to the words of this Wang Tuhao! We were besieged by them by accidentally breaking the goods that he occupied the Pufu Temple and hid the goods that were prepared and traded with Houjin, so we should arrest them!"
Without waiting for Fan Dayong to answer, Zhang Honglin behind him sneered and said, "Wang...... The Wang family is a giant businessman in Puzhou, and he ...... The state's contribution is enormous, and the ...... And the Wang family...... The head of the family has always done good deeds and accumulated virtues, and created ...... For the benefit of the township, it is really a great good person. You...... You're a little boy trying to rob ...... wealth, and gibberish, slander...... Falsely accusing a good businessman is a serious crime, and it is ...... What's the better of the law if it's not subdued...... What...... When?!"
It turns out that this Zhizhou master still has a literary talent, but it's a pity that it's a stammer, and he rarely publishes such a tirade on weekdays. After he finished speaking, he was tired and panting, and even the people who listened felt hard.
Gao Jie finally waited for him to finish speaking, and shouted: "I understand, it is not a coincidence that as soon as this king and the good man let off the arrow, the officers and soldiers arrived;
When Zhang Honglin heard this, he was so angry that he didn't make a fart for a long time, Fan Dayong interrupted him impatiently, and ordered: "Archers prepare to ......"
As soon as the order was given, one hundred and fifty archers leaned back and began to draw their bows, ready to fire.
In the face of the dense army, the murderous aura came to his face, even if he was as strong as Ren Jianwen, who was as strong as Jinyi Wei Qianhu, he couldn't help but be a little flustered, and was about to show his identity, but he heard Gao Jie next to him suddenly shout: "Uncle Shi! What are you playing with me?! If you don't come out, you're going to die!"
As soon as Gao Jie's words fell, he heard a long laugh: "Hahaha, how can the master be untrustworthy!" In the laughter, a black shadow swept down from the main hall, and its momentum was like an arrow from the string, and it instantly arrived in front of Fan Dayong, kicked him to the ground, and landed firmly on the yellow horse.
The sudden change occurred, and all the officers and soldiers were stunned at first, and when they came to their senses and were about to release their arrows, they heard neatly shouting from all around: "The commander of the Jinyi Guard has arrived, and you will not see you, but when!" With the majestic shouts that sounded everywhere, one after another figures fell from the walls and roofs of the temple into the temple, and there were nearly 100 people.
Many officers and soldiers were in a panic, and they saw that these 100 people were wearing light helmets, flying fish suits, and long knives at their waists.
Zhizhou Zhang Honglin was so frightened that he rolled off his horse, trembling and prostrate on the ground, unable to say a word; Fan Dayong, who was kicked off the horse, also got up at this time, knelt down at the black-robed man who had robbed his horse, and shouted in a trembling voice: "I've seen my lord!"
When the other officers and soldiers saw that Zhizhou and Qianhu were kneeling, there was a sound of weapons falling to the ground, and all the people inside and outside the temple bowed to the ground and did not dare to raise their heads.
It's no wonder that Zhang Honglin and Fan Dayong are scared like this, just as Gao Jie and Luo Sigong said when they joked, Jinyiwei's reputation is really not good, especially for these officials, it is simply a nightmarish existence. Under normal circumstances, even if a person in an official position commits a serious crime, he must at least go through a trial before he can be convicted and arrested; if an official of the fourth rank or higher such as the prefect is concerned, he must report it to the Holy Lord before he can be arrested and punished. However, the Jinyi guards were an exception, they had a separate prison, and once they were arrested, regardless of their official position, they could be beheaded first, and then the evidence was collected, the charges were listed, and the emperor was presented.
Therefore, seeing that Jinyiwei is coming, and there are so many more, what is even more terrifying is that even the supreme leader of Jinyiwei has commanded the adults to be present, Zhang Honglin and the others have long been frightened and lost their souls.
The commander of the Jinyi Guard is generally the third grade, and Luo Sigong is a close military general of the Wanli Emperor, a high and powerful position, and he is the governor of the second rank and the commander of the Jinyi Guard.
Wang Quanzhong didn't figure out what was going on at all, and the good situation that was supposed to win was suddenly reversed, which was like a nightmare.
Their Wang family has lived in Puzhou, Shanxi Province for generations, and they are rich and powerful, and Zhizhou and Qianhu all call him brothers, and which local officials at all levels have confiscated his benefits? But this time, just because he had to deal with a little country hunter boy, he would lead to the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and this commander was still the uncle of that kid, Wang Quanzhong was speechless for a while, what is a deep background, his own background is a fart, this kid named Gao Jie is really a deep background!
Wang Quanzhong didn't kneel, because his whole body was stiff, looking at the old man who was riding on a horse, wearing a high crown, wearing a black robe, and wearing a yellow flying fish suit, as if in a dream, he was at a loss, only one thing he knew was that the Wang family's hundreds of years of foundation was probably going to be destroyed in his hands.
