Abduct a shadow guard to investigate the case

"Jin and Wu are the biggest surnames in Wujia Village. The village was refurbished by the high-ranking officials who returned home in early years. It is surrounded by mountains and rivers and is built like a small castle. Unfortunately, more than four years ago, a plague broke out, and the government went there. The village was closed and the corpses were burned. My son escaped with his wife, granddaughter and me in advance. We walked for a long time and finally settled down in this village. A year ago, my son, his wife and a few people in the village The young people went to the city to go to the market together, and on the way back, they encountered bandits, they robbed money and killed people, only two of them ran back, ah... don’t mention it.”

Xuan Qi asked Uncle Jin about Wujia Village, and Uncle Jin asked him to sit down on the stone pier at the door, lit his pipe, and started talking while smoking.

Xuan Qi listened quietly, and when he heard this, he asked, "Didn't the government come to arrest the bandits?"

"Come here, but the mountains here are complicated, and it's difficult to search and arrest. This matter can't bring any big results, and the government doesn't want to spend more time. Later, every time someone reports a crime, they come to see it as a matter of routine."

"..." Xuan Qi frowned, clenched his fist slightly, and seemed to want to say something, but finally he didn't say it.

Uncle Jin continued, "I didn't go back to Wujia Village, but I heard people say that it has been blocked for several years, and now it is deserted. People pass by far at night, and they can still hear strange noises of ghosts. , I’m afraid it’s the ghosts of the villagers who died back then, and they come out to make trouble at night. I said, brother, if you want to go, you have to go in the daytime, so be careful.”

"..." Xuan Qi nodded, and said, "Thank you for reminding me, I'll start now." He stood up as he spoke.

Uncle Jin also stood up and said, "Oh, I advise you not to stop. You, don't take your master too seriously. If he treats you badly, you can treat him badly."

"..." Xuan Qi felt a little sorry for Shen Yao.

Seeing that he was silent, old man Jin said again, "Wait a minute, I'll make some cakes for you to eat on the way."

Before Xuan Qi could answer, he walked towards the kitchen on his own.

Xuan Qi looked at the leaving figure of old man Jin, and didn't move his eyes for a while, until he felt chest and abdomen dryness and pain, couldn't help but stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, and coughed twice in a low voice.

Suddenly, Gululu rolled a bamboo ball by his feet, Xuan Qi bent down to pick it up, went to the courtyard, and handed it to Ningning.

Ning Ning raised her head and blinked at him, then said with a smile, "Brother, you can play with me."

Xuan Qi was startled, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "How do you want to play?"

Ning Ning said, "Dad usually shows me how to juggle the ball, and he can also head the ball."

"..." Xuan Qi slowly brought the ball in front of him, and out of the corner of his eye, he caught Ning Ning's expectant gaze. He tossed the ball lightly, and he played with the bamboo ball with ease. In front of the feet.

Ning Ning clapped around him, jumped and laughed, and said, "Pass it to me, pass it to me."

Xuan Qi hooked the ball with his toes, threw the ball high, bowed his head, and the ball landed on his head. With a lift of his neck, the bamboo ball flew towards Ning Ning's arms without any delay.

Ning Ning smiled very happily, and clapped his hands hard. The bamboo ball was sent flying with a "snap", jumped over the fence, and landed outside the yard.

Seeing this, Xuan Qi said, "I'll go pick it up."

He opened the door to leave the hospital, and suddenly his ears moved slightly——

There are people with horses coming this way, and there are more than one person.

Xuan Qi closed the fence gate calmly, went straight to the bamboo ball, bent down to pick it up.

The sound of horseshoes and footsteps turned the corner, and seven or eight men in casual clothes, with cloth headscarves and weapons in hand, appeared at the entrance of the village.

Uncle Jin just came out of the kitchen and shouted, "The bandits are coming, hide quickly!"

"Take Ningning back to the house!" Xuan Qi shouted to the courtyard, and casually tossed the bamboo ball to Old Man Jin's feet.

Instead of hiding, he took a few steps outside and blocked the entrance to the village.

Uncle Jin even called him a few times, but he didn't see him turning back, so he had to pull Ningning into the house first and locked the door.He looked out through the crack of the door, stomping his feet anxiously.

The leader of the bandits was riding on a white horse. He was unshaven and had a machete on his waist. The others followed him into the village, but Xuan Qi blocked the way.

"Yo, it's said that good dogs don't block the way, but there are dogs that are not afraid of death and bump into them." The bandit leader stopped his horse, looked down at Xuan Qi, and grinned to everyone.

A group of people laughed rudely, and several people circled around Xuan Qi and surrounded him.

"Which family are you from? Do you know what we are doing?" One of them raised the big knife at his waist and waved it a few times in front of Xuan Qi.

Xuan Qi didn't even blink his eyes.

"Hey, this kid won't be scared stupid, haha—" another bandit said.

"Are you planning to enter the village to rob?" Xuan Qi asked suddenly.

"Oh, so I wasn't scared stupid," said the bandit.A group of people seem to have found the fun of teasing, talking in a hurry——

"Not just robbery, we also want to kill people and rob girls, haha!"

"Who made the number of rabbits entering the mountain less and less recently, the brothers can only come out to fight in the wild by themselves."

"Which house do you live in, kid? I think we should start from your house."

"This boy is quite handsome, I think it's better to take him back, second child, you can be both male and female!"

Xuan Qi stood expressionlessly among the thieves. Although he was wearing rough clothes that didn't fit him, he stood like a pine on a cliff, and his stern demeanor gradually became colder.

"Are you done?" Xuan Qi asked, secretly hearing the sound of horseshoes approaching from far and near, he guessed that the follow-up bandits arrived.

His voice was not loud, but everyone present could hear him clearly. Suddenly, the bandits shuddered unconsciously and stopped laughing.

"Stop talking nonsense with him, just chop him off." The bandit leader squinted at Xuan Qidao.

The sound of horseshoes approaching the entrance of the village became more and more obvious. Xuan Qi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, his eyes sank, his fists were already clenched, and he was about to make a move when he heard a familiar voice roar——

"Who dares to touch him? I'll fuck you!"

Before the words fell, a black horse galloped up, and the person on the horse was dressed in moon white clothes. Before all the bandits could see the appearance of the person coming, the person flew up from the horse.

The so-called capturing the bandit first captures the king, the figure went straight to the leader of the bandits, the leader wanted to draw a knife, but before his hand touched his waist, he felt a cross-arm hit his chest, and there was a muffled "bang". The pain was unbearable, and he fell off the horse on his back.

The white horse he was riding was frightened, turned around and ran away, the horse's hooves trampled, and the leader rolled several times on the ground in fright, narrowly escaping the bad luck of being trampled.

The person who came was sassy, ​​and now he had fallen into the encirclement of bandits, facing Xuan Qi a few steps away.

Xuan Qi's eyes widened, his mind went blank for a moment, and his heart lake trembled as if being blown by a spring breeze.I didn't see him for just a day, but a green beard appeared on Shen Yao's chin, he was dressed in a light shirt, and his eyes were bloodshot, but when he looked at him, there was a bright brilliance, like ecstasy, but also a little Anger and complaints.

Not allowing the two to be distracted, the bandit leader on the side was helped up by his subordinates, and shouted, "Kill them both!"

Xuan Qi's expression froze, and he raised his hand to break the knife that was slashed at the side of his body, but Shen Yao moved faster than him, and his figure moved to his side in a flash, blocking the knife first, and he grabbed the opponent's knife-wielding hand with one hand, So he pressed back hard, lifted his leg and kicked his knee hard, the bandit fell heavily to the ground, threw the knife and covered his knee and wailed "Aww".

Immediately afterwards, as long as Xuan Qi wanted to make a move, Shen Yao would definitely get in front of him. He slapped the bandit's face with his palm on one side, causing nosebleeds, and broke his ribs with an elbow on the other side, and then kicked him again. Lying on one side... bandits are mostly mobs, and Shen Yao doesn't use much internal strength. Every move relies on fist and foot skills, and he beats fiercely at places that can't kill people but cause severe pain.He moved like a shooting star, his clothes fluttering, dancing around Xuan Qi.Xuan Qi couldn't help but wanted to make a move at first, but later he simply stood with his hands down, his eyes following Shen Yao's figure.

In the blink of an eye, all the bandits were beaten to the ground, wailing and unable to move.

Shen Yao shook his painful hand, stepped in front of Xuan Qi, the corners of his lips twitched slightly, his brows frowned slightly, then suddenly his eyebrows and eyes curved, and he grinned. He opened his arms and hugged Xuan Qi in a hug arms.

"It's a good thing you're fine, it's a good thing..." Shen Yao put one hand on the back of Xuan Qi's neck, whispered in his ear, almost touching his face, "Do you know, I'm really scared to death. He hugged him so tightly, Xuan Qi could feel the rise and fall of his chest and breathing, and he could also feel his body trembling slightly.

Xuan Qi's body froze, he felt his heartbeat speeding up uncontrollably, the wound on his body was actually hurting from being strangled, but his mind was like drunk, a little fluttering, the place on the back of the neck touched by Shen Yao seemed to long for This touch, this feeling is strange and exciting, painful and alluring.Shen Yao's breath carried the smell of dust and vegetation, enveloping him clearly and warmly. If Shen Yao's embrace was a river or a river, he just wanted to drift with the current.There was a ripple in Xuan Qi's eyes, and he quietly raised his hand, wanting to put it around Shen Yao's waist, at this moment, Shen Yao seemed to think of something, and suddenly let go of Xuan Qi, Xuan Qi hurriedly put down his hand.

Shen Yao held his arms and looked up and down. Xuan Qi's face had been lacking in color since the first time we met in the villa, and now he was even more pale. He was obviously wearing someone else's clothes, which didn't fit well, but they were clean and tidy. Shen Yao asked, "Are you injured? Were you rescued by the people in this village?"

Xuan Qi nodded, then quickly shook his head, "No injury..." Before he finished speaking, he heard a burst of chaotic footsteps behind him.

"Wow, they were all defeated!" A group of villagers ran over under the leadership of old man Jin. They held hoes, wooden sticks and other weapons, and scattered in twos and threes to check the bandits on the ground.

"This is 'Maobeard'?!" A villager suddenly shouted, and the crowd surrounded him. When they saw the bandit leader lying on the ground, they clapped their hands excitedly, "Great, you caught 'Maobeard', We don't have to be afraid anymore!"

"Mao Beard" had one side of his face swollen, and he groaned on the ground.The villagers took the thick hemp ropes, tied up all the bandits one by one, discussed and carried them to the town to report to the officials.

Uncle Jin walked towards Xuan Qi and asked, "Brother, are you alright?"

Xuan Qi shook his head at him, and said, "It's okay."

Uncle Jin glanced at Shen Yao beside him, and asked again, "Who is this?"

Xuan Qi said, "This is my young master," and said to Shen Yao, "Young master, it was this old man Jin who rescued me by the river this morning."

Shen Yao felt a little strange when he heard Xuan Qi say "my son", he looked at Xuan Qi, Xuan Qi showed no expression, but blinked at him quickly, the corners of Shen Yao's mouth slightly curled up, and hurriedly made a gesture to Old Man Jin He bowed and said, "Thank you, Uncle Jin, for saving 'my family' Xuan Qi."

Xuan Qi turned to look at him, he squeezed his right eye at Xuan Qi, Xuan Qi was slightly startled, and quickly looked away.

"No thanks, no thanks, you helped the village catch the bandits, we should thank you," Old Man Jin said.

For some reason, Shen Yao felt that although Old Man Jin said so, he looked at him with disgust.He couldn't help touching his face, thinking that he shouldn't look ugly.

At this time, a group of villagers gathered around, thanked Shen and Xuan repeatedly, and insisted on hosting a luncheon for them.
