The world is impermanent
Chapter IV
The empty hall was only Li Rongguang and the housekeeper Li Quan at this time, both of them were full of smiles, "Li Quan, you can talk about success this time, your credit is not small, and I will definitely reward you well when the matter is completed" "Master, what did you say, this is the old slave's business." "How many times have I said you, don't always be an old slave and an old slave, I think you followed me when I was just a little-known dart master, it can be said that you went in the wind, came in the rain, they are all my good brothers, don't always see the outside like this" "Okay, okay, I understand, brother" "This is like words, haha!" As soon as the words fell, Mrs. Li had already entered the hall
"Madam, I had a good talk with Boss Zheng this time, if it is done this time, it may be worth all the income of our family for more than half a year!" Li Rongguang did not sell it, and said bluntly, "That's great, master, it seems that our family is really getting better and better, not to mention the rolling financial resources, the third child is also very obedient recently, you will wait to enjoy Qingfu in a few years."
"However, madam, this time Boss Zheng specially instructed me to escort him personally, otherwise he would not be at ease, I also agreed, I haven't done these things for a long time, it's good to get familiar with it again, and by the way, bring the godsend, Tianhong also with them, so that they can have a long experience, and it will also be good for their future development."
"As long as you think it's okay, sir, I'll keep this family business at home, and I'll be idle."
"It's still early, the batch of goods will not leave until ten days later, we only need to be responsible for escorting to the border of Rongzhou and Yizhou, there will be someone to pick up, before leaving, our family will also have a good gathering, and then go out happily, go home safely, haha!"
"Okay, everything depends on you, I'll tell them to go down, let them all go to the housekeeper if there is anything in ten days, don't bother you, tell the three brothers not to be busy, everyone relax together"
In the next few days, as Li Rongguang planned, the family got together every day, chatted, and was completely intoxicated by the warm atmosphere, so that he even had a thought in his heart - after the completion of this dart, he would have a good life of leisure for a few years and cultivate his self-cultivation.
The leisurely complacency of the Li family is in stark contrast to the performance of the Wang family. Since Wang Zhenming came back from Cuiyun Peak, he has been secretly sending people to monitor Li Rongguang's every move, and finally got a good news a few days ago - Li Rongguang will personally escort a horse to the Yizhou border, which can make Wang Zhenming happy. After being excited for a long time, he also began to plan carefully, and there must be no mistakes this time. He first asked someone to inquire about Li Rongguang's departure time and walking route clearly, and then brought a pen and paper to Song Changfeng to repair a letter on specific matters, hoping that he could help. On the side of Rongzhou City, he selected more than a dozen strong men from among the subordinates of the palace and explained to them for a long time. In the end, he called Wang Bufan over, gave another command, and then let out a long breath. Now he's finally able to get some rest!
Finally came to the day of departure, Li Rongguang took his two sons, more than a dozen dart board people set off in stride, and the family was handed over to his wife Xie Yuxiu, Li Tianya did not follow, he didn't like to travel long distances, and even sleep in the open, or eat and dress well at home. The parting was Mrs. Li, who also explained a few words: "Pay attention to your body outside, take care of your sons, and come back as soon as possible", "obey orders, madam", "It's really old and improper". Looking at such a scene, Li Tianya felt more and more that life was really meaningful.
It's been two days since the escort team left, and everything is still so calm that nothing unusual can be felt.
Li Rongguang and his party walked very slowly, anyway, there was plenty of time, so they stopped and stopped, and they were not in a hurry. Everyone talked and laughed along the way, and it felt like they were not darts at all, but more like a crowd of people who came out to play, and it was not until they walked to a valley on the sixth day that they became vigilant. Directly in front of a man wearing a black cloth robe, a hat on his head, and a long sword on his back, fluttering in the wind, so chic. Li Rongguang stepped forward and said, "Li Rongguang, the dart head of the lower Jiuding Dart Bureau, I don't know what is going on with Your Excellency, block here," "Take your head" After speaking, an arrow rushed up, and in the blink of an eye, the sword was already in his hand, and the long sword shot towards Li Rongguang in the blink of an eye, Li Rongguang was helpless, and struggled to block, making him take a few steps back, and his chest was swollen with pain, almost a mouthful of blood spurted out, but he still stood up straight, and asked, "I don't know where to offend Your Excellency, as soon as I come up, it is a killing move, I Li Rongguang has no such enemy in my life." "Entrusted by people, loyal to people, why do you need to explain" Today, this Xiangyang Valley is the burial place of you. After speaking, I saw the long sword fly up again, hovering in the air, and after a while, I saw that the accompanying dozen or so dart masters were all killed. Only the father and son were left, looking at the man in black in front of him dumbfounded, and his heart was also up and down, uneasy, such a powerful person to kill them can be said to be easy, in front of this person, their father and son have no strength to resist at all, but Li Rongguang is also a person who has seen the world, and he did not panic at this time, but stepped forward and said" Your Excellency is strong in martial arts, entrusted by others to take the head of the next person, I know that I have no way out, and I don't say much, I just hope that Your Excellency can let go of my two sons, they are still young, and there is still a long way to go in life, I don't know if it is okay?" "If I am so kind, I will not come to take your head, you all do it yourself, and you can die a decent death" Li Rongguang's face was gloomy at this time, and his heart was also grief-stricken, did he really want to watch his sons being killed, did he really want to be buried here today, and he didn't even know who killed him, it was really sad, I thought that I Li Rongguang had not experienced any ups and downs, but he had never been so small as he was today, and he had never found himself so small. He looked at the two sons and said, "Dad can't stand you, Dad is useless, he can't even protect his own flesh and blood, if there is an afterlife, you must not be my son of Li Rongguang again" "Dad, you will always be our good father, this life is, the next life is still, death is not enough to get together, today our father and son died together, and after going down, it is good to have a companion, just thinking about the life of the third brother and mother in the future, I am" "After discussing it, I will cut myself, die early and reincarnate" "Sons, we must die with backbone, let's fight with this" The father and son each stabbed at the man in black with a long sword, but when the three swords were a foot away from the man in black, they all stopped, and then fell to the ground. The man in black was Song Changfeng on Cuiyun Peak, he had been waiting in Xiangyang Valley for several days, and he was also very impatient in his heart, so when he saw that Li Rongguang and his party had finally arrived, he also lost patience and straightforwardly completed his promise to Wang Zhenming.
In the afternoon, Wang Zhenming received a letter from Song Changfeng, after reading the content, he smiled from ear to ear, and said three "good" in a row, Wang Bufan on the side saw this, and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Dad, what good thing makes you so happy, say it, let the big guy be happy" "Extraordinary, let this go in advance, you go and call the dozen or so men selected before, Dad has something important to tell them" After a while, more than a dozen strong men came to Wang Zhenming, these dozen people were all dead soldiers trained by Wang Zhenming, although the time was very short, but he was willing to spend money, and directly bribed them with money that these people might not be able to earn in their lifetime. "Tonight, you all go to the Li Mansion and arrest Li Tianya and his mother for me, I will treat them well. ”
"Yes"
After late at night, the entire Li Mansion was quiet, and at this time, more than a dozen black shadows jumped into the Li Mansion compound, and without any hesitation, they went directly to the wing room. Unfortunately, there is a maid in the Li Mansion who gets up at night, looking at a group of black shadows, and exclaiming, "Catch the thief, there is a thief", a few breaths, the Li Mansion is very lively, more than a dozen black-clothed masked people are surrounded by the servants up and down the Li Mansion, and there is no action for the time being, Li Tianya just woke up from his sleep, looked at the scene in front of him, and asked, "What's the matter, the third watch in the middle of the night is so noisy, and I can't sleep", Xie Yuxiu saw this, and hurriedly said, "It's nothing wrong with you, hurry up and go into the house to sleep" and then called two more family members to command" You hurry up and escort the young master out of the city overnight, take the silver taels, go to the city to hide for a few days, and when the master and they come back, you and the young master will enter the city again, and you must not let others know your whereabouts", although Xie Yuxiu is a woman, but she is still a person who has seen the world, she knows that the Li Mansion is destined to be doomed tonight, so she takes the lead in solving her own worries, as long as her son is well, she has no regrets. After the explanation was completed, he asked the masked man, "I don't know what you want to do when you break into my Li Mansion late at night, if you don't explain clearly, none of you will want to leave the Li Mansion half a step tonight" "Don't be long-winded, boss, let's fight with them, the lord is as kind to us as a mountain, and we must not live up to his expectations." Clean up this old lady first, and the others will be self-defeating" The boss also said "Okay, everyone act, remember to succeed in one fell swoop" So a group of people all rushed in the direction where Mrs. Li was standing, Mrs. Li bore the brunt, the people around her wanted to stop, but it was too late, the leader took the lead in grabbing Mrs. Li's neck, and wanted to take her as a hostage, so that they could leave safely, but in a hurry, they started too hard, and directly pinched Mrs. Li's breath, seeing Mrs. Li slowly falling down, the masked murderer was the first to react, and ran away, and the others also saw the situation and quickly retreated. And the servants from all over the Li Mansion looked at this scene and didn't have the heart to care about the masked people, they all came up to surround Mrs. Li, "Madam, madam, wake up, madam" Some people also splashed cold water, or shook Mrs. Li's body vigorously, but everything was meaningless, and Mrs. Xie Yuxiu of the Li family died in this way.
This soul returned to the nine heavens, which made Li Tianya lose all his relatives in one day, but he didn't know that he was on his way out of the city at this time, and said casually, "I don't sleep in the middle of the night, where are you taking me?"
"Young master, Madam ordered us to take you away and hide outside the city, we don't know where to go, let's get out of the city first."
"What are you hiding, who dares to be unfavorable to the Li family? No, I want to go back."
Seeing that Li Tianya was really about to go back, a family member also hurriedly said, "Young master, let's do it, you and Xiao Zhang will wait at the Confucius Temple outside the city first, and I will immediately go back to the house to inquire about the situation, and then make a decision, how about it?"
"It's okay, you move quickly, don't keep me waiting"
"Yes, young master"
