In order not to cause misunderstanding among the palace guards, Chai Shaoning stepped out of the palace honestly. After performing light kung fu to go around the mansion for a week, after confirming that there were no thieves hiding outside the mansion, he jumped to a tall building.
The crescent moon that night, only starlight. Chai Shaoning stood tall, and the whole person entered a sensitive state like a loose one, and everything in heaven and earth seemed to be revolving around him in an instant, although he couldn't see things with his mind like Song Yuanlan, but all the movements in the radius were in his ears.
After a long period of silence, Chai Shaoning made sure that the thief was not nearby, and he jumped towards another tall building in the distance.
After checking in the middle of the night, Chai Shaoning's feet were far away from the palace.
The sky was full of stars, and Chai Shaoning knew that it was useless that night, so he jumped off the tall building and prepared to return to the palace. However, when he turned two streets, he suddenly noticed a human figure hidden in the darkness ahead.
Chai Shaoning secretly observed and found that there were six of them, faintly surrounded by a courtyard, occasionally walking around each other, but after making a safe hand, they quietly hid in the dark in the corner.
Chai Shaoning could see clearly at night, these people didn't have martial arts, they should just be ordered to monitor who was here?
Of course, Chai Shaoning would not let go of any abnormal situation, he did not alarm the gang, but quietly jumped into the courtyard that was being monitored by them, and sneaked in front of a three-room house side by side in the courtyard.
The compound was not large, and a little dilapidated, and it looked like a poor family in decline, and there was no sign of anyone else except the three men who were talking in the middle room.
Before he arrived at the door, Chai Shaoning heard an old man's voice coming: "It will be dawn in half an hour, Wen Qing still doesn't take your sister away, do you really want to anger me?"
A girl's crying voice sounded: "I won't leave grandpa, let's report to the official!"
"What kind of official?" a young man's voice shouted: "Gu Fatzi's younger brother is the head catcher, and his father was arrested and put in prison by his younger brother, but he cried and pretended to be merciful, saying that their brother did not let us be raided and wiped out, and asked my sister to marry him as a child in return!"
The old man's voice said angrily: "Don't mention your unruly father!"
The young man said angrily: "Father shouldn't have taken refuge in the Nine Ghosts and aided in the abuse, but isn't he also for our family? Otherwise, my sister would have been ruined by the people in the Fengyue Gate! At the beginning, the Nine Ghosts were rampant, and the government did not stop them, but now that the Nine Ghosts have fallen, they have come to raid the house and arrest people. Even if I can escape from the Gu family's hands with my sister, I can't escape this cannibalistic world!"
When the old man heard this, he sighed and did not speak.
The girl continued to cry, "Grandpa, please don't let me leave you. Wen Li has lived to this day, and she has never left our house, what will you do after you ask Xiaoli to go out?"
"Xiaoli!" The old man also cried and said, "My poor Xiaoli, it is my grandfather's incompetence that has caused your brothers and sisters to suffer!"
When Chai Shaoning heard this, his heart was sour, thinking of the three ancestors and grandsons of Song Shoucheng who died tragically in Taiyuan Mansion, he couldn't help it anymore, and stepped forward and knocked on the door: "Old man, please open the door!"
There was a panicked noise in the room, and then the door was opened, and a thin old man and a young man in a gray robe stood inside, but the girl was nowhere to be seen.
Seeing Chai Shaoning's bright clothes and a decent person's dress, the young man named Wen Qing said angrily: "Who are you Gu Fatty? Before dawn, are you here to ask for someone?"
The old man also begged: "Annoy, this little brother goes back and tells the owner of Gu Zhuang that our Su family is really not as high as his old man, please let our family Wenli go!"
Chai Shaoning bowed outside the door and said: "Don't misunderstand the old man and this little brother, in Xia Chai Shaoning, he is a colt in Sichuan, and he happened to hear the conversation between the three of them, so he asked to see him." If someone dares to bully others and use the power of officials to oppress the people, I, Chai Shaoning, will let him know what justice is?"
The old man glanced at his grandson with a frightened face, and said to Chai Shaoning: "How could the dignified master of the horse come to my humble house in the middle of the night? Little brother, don't be joking, please go back and tell the owner of the Gu village, we will never dare to report to the official!"
Chai Shaoning saw that the old man was so frightened that he couldn't judge whether what he said was true or false, so he took out the gold medal of the king of Sichuan that he was carrying with him, handed it to the other party, and said, "I saw a few people gathered outside the courtyard, and I don't know what happened?" It doesn't matter if the old man doesn't want to report to the official, everything has its own axioms, I, Chai Shaoning, will meet that Gu fat man with the old man with reason!"
While Chai Shaoning was speaking, the old man had already taken the card, and saw that the gold medal was finely made, which was by no means a forgery that ordinary craftsmen could fake, and the whole body was red gold, revealing a kind of royal luxury.
Glancing at his grandson, the old man's eyes flashed with surprise, and tears flowed down his eyes with excitement, and he shouted: "Master Ma is the master of us!" As soon as his knees were bent, he was about to kneel.
Chai Shaoning had expected that the other party would be like this, so he grabbed the old man and didn't let him kneel, and at the same time persuaded him: "Old man, Chai Shaoning is here just to see the uneven road, not to make people thank, the old man is not like this!"
The young man on the side was also stupid, and he didn't believe that what was happening in front of him was true, until the old man urged him: "Wenqing, why don't you call your sister out to meet the master of the horse?"
The girl named Wen Li didn't know what was going on, and she was called out of the cave by her brother in a daze, and when she saw that there was one more person in the room, she raised her head and looked at Chai Shaoning timidly.
As soon as the two looked at each other, Chai Shaoning's heart "boomed", and his whole heart almost jumped out of his throat.
I saw that although the clothes on the opposite girl's body were torn, it was difficult to hide her delicate spirit, she was born in a poor family, but she looked luxurious, but what really shocked Chai Shaoning was that the girl's appearance was the same as the dead Lin Zhimei, and even her expression and demeanor were seven or eight points similar.
"Senior sister!" Chai Shaoning couldn't help but cry out, and two lines of hot tears rolled down his cheeks.
Although Lin Zhimei did not officially marry Chai Shaoning, she was the first woman in Chai Shaoning's life, and the unforgettable place is by no means imaginable to others!
The three grandfathers and grandsons in the house were all stunned when they saw Chai Shaoning suddenly crying. The old man said in a panic: "Master Horse, what's wrong with you?"
Chai Shaoning suddenly sobered up, suppressed the mood of "pounding", wiped a handful of tears and said: "It's nothing, the wind is blind!"
Of course, the three grandfathers and grandsons knew that Chai Shaoning was lying, but it was inconvenient to break it, so they hurriedly beckoned Chai Shaoning to enter the house.
Chai Shaoning said: "Old man, please wait a minute, I'll come when I go!"
The three people in the room were all startled, and when they rubbed their eyes again, it was dark outside, and sure enough, there was no one.
The three of them just saw the ghost, and they were so frightened that they were about to close the door, when there was a sound of "bang, pop" objects falling in the courtyard, and Chai Shaoning had already appeared at the door again.
"Oh my God!" When the young man named Wen Qing saw it, he shouted excitedly: "I have heard that the master of the horse is the descendant of the famous dragon who moves the rivers and lakes, and today I know what is the peerless light skill? No wonder the master of the horse was able to destroy the nine ghosts and was recruited by the prince as a horse!"
Chai Shaoning knew that the other party didn't know that his wife Sheng Yue was also one of the nine ghosts, so he smiled slightly and answered. As for the legends that were recruited as concubines by the king of Sichuan because of the destruction of the nine ghosts, there is no need to correct them.
The girl Wen Li also knew that a savior was coming at this time, and she came over to greet Chai Shaoning happily.
Chai Shaoning's mood was adjusted, and he was no longer out of control as before, and after returning the salute, he asked the three of them: "What happened? Provoked these people to surround the courtyard at night, as if they were afraid that the three of them would escape?"
The old man looked horrified at the pile of people lying in the courtyard.
It was only then that the gang let out a groan of pain. One of the first to come to his senses stood up, completely unaware of what was going on, touching his aching crotch and scolding, "What's going on, who the can tell grandpa what's going on?"
A finger wind popped out, and the person fell to the ground again with a "poof", but this time he was dumb and couldn't scold again.
When the other people lying on the ground saw it, they knew that they had met a master, so they simply didn't even stand up, and obediently crawled there pretending to be unconscious.
Seeing Chai Shaoning's miraculous skills, the three grandchildren standing at the door of the house also had the courage to come.
The young man named Wen Qing spoke first: "My father Su Yu is a showman, although he has not been able to gain fame, he is also well-known in the city. Because under the nose of the king of Sichuan, although the nine ghosts are rampant, this Chengdu city is also peaceful. But a few years ago, there was a sudden disappearance of a girl in the city. My sister Su Wenli's appearance is notoriously beautiful in this area, and my father knew that she would become the target of thieves sooner or later, so despite my grandfather's opposition, she took the initiative to take refuge in the Nine Ghosts and became a clerk, responsible for some things in Chengdu City!"
Chai Shaoning nodded when he heard this, knowing that the early years were safe and sound, because the nine ghosts needed to rely on the power of the king of Sichuan, and later the nine ghosts took refuge in the king of Hainan, and the situation naturally changed. It can be seen that the king of Hainan has been planning a rebellion for more than a year and a half, so he was able to recruit many famous Jiangyang thieves.
Su Wenqing continued: "However, after the year, the nine ghosts in Sichuan suddenly tried to assassinate the prince, and Fengyuemen became the target of extermination. As a small leader, my father was also arrested and imprisoned by Gu Dagui, the head hunter in the city. ”
When Su Wenqing said this, the old man took over and said: "Yu'er befriended the villain, and she should end up like this." However, Gu Dagui's elder brother Gu Dashou took a fancy to our family Wenli, sent someone to the door to propose marriage, and set a deadline for Xiaoli to pass the door, and tomorrow is the day of the big limit! That Gu Dashou is already almost sixty years old this year, not only for the evil side, but also for his wife and concubine. He married fifteen concubines before, and ten of them hanged themselves because they couldn't stand his beatings. How can I send my granddaughter back into the tiger's mouth?"
