Suspect in Jinling

On the night of June 14th, [-]th year of Zhengtong, in Jinling City, a major Taiping sect case will start.

At that time, the members of the Taiping Sect didn't know that the crisis was coming. Jin Chizi directed the active believers to move the wounded to the warehouse, and the rest of them repaired on the spot. He is a sensible person and knows the general trend. The help can be completed in a day or two, and this place will be evacuated as soon as possible. He strode to Xu's party, untied the key that Ying Tianfu gave him from his waist, and threw it to them.

Xu looked up at Jin Chizi.

Jin Chizi didn't say a word, pinched his waist, and smiled to wipe away his grudges.

At this moment, the hooves of the horses that had just fallen silent suddenly became slightly more intense. Others were not alert and thought it was the sound of pulling away, but Jin Chizi looked down and saw the stones on the ground colliding and rubbing softly. He got up, followed by the faint sound of footsteps and the sound of armor rubbing——he had a beast-like intuition, and with this intuition, he was able to move across the west of the city for nearly ten years. I approached, and I heard the instructions and tried my best to lighten it, but the reason why it landed very heavy was because the armor these people were equipped with was very heavy!

It is a kind of power that hides in the dark and is ready to go. This kind of power is determined to kill with one blow as soon as it makes a move. It is thousands of times and a hundred times more terrifying than Feng Baldzi's rampant trouble!Jin Chizi was alert and looked around, but he had no one available now, all of his subordinates were exhausted at this time, without the slightest combat power, and they seemed to trust Kuang Jian's ability, although their expressions were exhausted, But extremely relaxing.

At this moment, Xu and the others raised their heads and asked, "Jin Er, are these keys wrong?"

A kind of horrifying trembling rolled over Jin Chizi's whole body!

This lock is Ying Tianfu's lock!

"The wooden yoke is a false buckle, and you can break it open at any time. The lock is real, and it can be guarded against street inspections." Kuang Jian had told him about this arrangement before accepting Mrs. Xu, and even handed over the key to Jin Chizi, It is said that if he has a conflict with the Xu family for a while, it can be regarded as a restraint for him!But if there is a problem with this lock in the first place, the purpose is only to restrict the actions of Xu and others, if...if...

A worst-case scenario flashed through Jin Chizi's mind...

"Don't worry," Jin Chizi stood up straight with a smile, and said to Xu and the others: "There is still a set of keys in the warehouse, I'll get them for you." People walked into the alley, Xu and others did not suspect him, and continued to bandage the wound, but just a few snaps after Jin Chizi escaped everyone's sight, a password suddenly broke the silence of the alley!

"Taiping believers, put down your weapons—!"

The voice suddenly came from a high place, thick and loud, with the deep majesty that the soldiers in the army are accustomed to, and at the moment he gave the order, countless cold lights pointed down from the highest place of the warehouse, and pieces of flames came from the surrounding area. Burning in the darkness, the iron armor shone with a cold light, poured directly from the entrance of the alleyway, surrounded by layers, the Taiping believers who were limp on the ground were caught off guard, looked up in a daze, but heard the person who just gave the order continue to speak clearly shouted:

"Catch it without a fight! Don't resist! You are already surrounded—!"

The sound insulation in the warehouse is excellent.

At first, Jin Chizi strengthened the walls and iron gates just so that the outside could not hear the sound of weapons and firecrackers in the stack, but at this time, he also firmly isolated the riots of soldiers and armor outside, and Sha Xiangyue concentrated on tying up the wounds. , especially those burly men who had just been crushed under the scaffolding by him. Several of their legs were broken. Sha Xiangyue held a wooden stick to help them put on the splint. Her long and white hands looked frail. , the pain was so great that they screamed in fear and fear, and after bandaging three or four people, Sha Xiangyue suddenly felt that the atmosphere outside was a bit suspicious: there should be more wounded, why didn't they bring them over?

Kuang Jian said that he would settle the person who came, Sha Xiangyue was not suspicious, and there was no violent quarrel or shouting outside, and it was even a little quiet. He stood up, rolled open the iron door as usual to check the situation, but this time When he opened the door, he was a little stunned——

The torches were burning brightly outside.He didn't see the Taiping believers, but he saw a group of army divisions. These people wore black iron heavy armor and spread out to block the exit in front of the warehouse. Swords and shields were staggered. .Most importantly, they are silent, act silently, guard silently, are well-trained, have strict military discipline, and are alarmingly silent.

"Who are you?"

An extremely ominous premonition flashed in Sha Xiangyue's heart.

The armored soldier guarding the door suddenly turned his head and shouted: "Centre the wounded to be treated, and don't wander around!"

As he spoke, he glanced up and down at him, and added a twist in his blunt tone: "Your surname is Kill?"

Sha Xiangyue frowned and nodded sullenly.

The guard immediately said to his side: "Go and report to General Hong!"

Sha Xiangyue was puzzled, but refused to sit still and pushed away their guards, but strangely, these people did not stop him.At the cargo transportation exit at the other end of the warehouse, more than 50 lightly armored soldiers are carrying large boxes in an orderly manner. On the narrow alleyway, there are sparkling lights above the warehouse, and countless bows and crossbows are in place. Overhead, all of Jin Chizi's concealed muzzles had been controlled. Sha Xiangyue raised her head slightly, feeling the pressure of suffocation, her brows became more and more wrinkled, and she walked quickly to the battlefield just now.After a hundred steps, he finally saw a familiar figure, Zhu Shi, Xu Shi, Lao Jin and others were all there, but at this time they were all bound up, and each was guarded by armored soldiers, Sha Xiangyue opened her eyes wide When Lao Jin saw him, he seemed to see a rescuer, so he quickly said, "It's Catcher Kuang! Kill the craftsman, go and beg Catcher Kuang...!"

Sha Xiangyue suddenly couldn't understand, stayed where she was, and asked in a daze: "Where is the second brother?"

Xu's Zhu Shi was dejected, with his eyes closed, and his expression was very bad. Their friendship with Jin Chizi was not counted as behind him. In the situation of leaderless dragons, only Lao Jin was still anxiously answering: "I don't know where you are going! Kill the craftsman, you go!" Look for Kuang to catch the head!"

This slight commotion immediately attracted the attention of the people nearby. A black shadow flashed in the flames, thinking that a senior officer from the county was striding forward, looked at Sha Xiangyue, and asked politely, "Master Killing Craftsman?"

"Boom!" There was a metallic roar!Sha Xiangyue suddenly snatched the knife empty-handed, and the long edge of the blade shot out a burst of blue light, suddenly pointing at the person who came!

The man froze for a moment, not expecting the sudden attack.His surname is Hong, and he is the most trusted general under the command of Chen Run, the Marquis of Ningyang. He is also in charge of the most dangerous person today: moving all the ammunition in the warehouse to ensure the absolute safety of the trip.Sha Xiangyue in this world suddenly drew his saber, and his body stretched suddenly, but he didn't make any defensive posture against Sha Xiangyue, and even raised his hand to press the arm of the sword-drawing guard at his side, and comforted Sha Xiangyue: "Kill Xiangyue!" Craftsman, we are performing official duties, so we have something to say."

Before today's operation, both the major general and the commander this time have told him that there will be a young man in purple clothes in the warehouse. In any conflict with him, the most important thing is not to let him use gunpowder to cause any damage.

The fourth master who kept smiling rarely kept his face straight and emphasized his tone, and said emphatically: "This artisan killer will be led to the warehouse, and with him will be the wounded and the old and weak women and children taken in by the Taiping Sect. Therefore, when Hong Can evacuates this group of people, he must suppress them, he will be concerned about the lives of these people, as long as they are not evacuated, he will not take the risk.”

At that time Hong Shenjiang still dismissed it after hearing it, thinking that the skill in the grass is amazing, how good can it be?The sword and shield warriors under his command are all good fighters selected from a hundred miles, the elite of the elite on the battlefield, no matter how good the skill is, they can't break through his formation.

But at this moment, he looked at this craftsman killer and was suddenly shaken: such a quick reaction, such a beautiful face, and such a pair of murderous eyes.

"Go away!"

Seeing the person in front of her staring at her in a daze, Sha Xiangyue suddenly showed disgust, and swiped the knife casually, slashing Hong Shenjiang's Tiejia's chest with a "clang" sound!General Hong didn't panic, clutched his chest, raised his hand with a smile and took a half step back, signaling to please, Sha Xiangyue pushed away the crowd with a cold face, snatched a horse without saying a word, and galloped away go--

Behind Sha Xiangyue, a gorgeous firework suddenly exploded in the night sky!

The horseshoes were pounding, Sha Xiangyue's mind was buzzing, and cold sweat gushed out of his body like a spring.

He couldn't understand the situation in front of him at all: Who is it?Why?When did this happen?With such a large number of troops, if there is no advance layout, it is impossible to coordinate so quickly. This is a game, but who arranged the game?Who knew that they were going to move tonight, who could launch the encirclement and suppression so precisely when the Taiping Sect was powerless to resist?

The night road in Jinling is full of flames, and there are escort teams along the way. The escorts include Feng Tuzi and his group, as well as Taiping believers. They are all familiar figures. The crowd searched for Kuang Jian's figure, looking for it in groups, and inquiring about Kuang Jian's whereabouts in groups, but they couldn't find it at all. The dazzling fire made him blind for a while, and the guards stared at him, They slashed at him, but they were silently guarding, and did not make a move. Countless believers of the same religion also stared at him, watching him sitting high on the horse, as if they were looking at a traitor.

Sha Xiangyue couldn't hear anything, she couldn't even breathe, she pressed her heart in panic, she couldn't even hear her heartbeat, and there were bursts of ringing in her ears, all of which were the sounds of fighting just now, after the violent noise came Kuang Jian Finally, she stopped him quietly, and then said softly, "It's okay, let's go."

Sha Xiangyue only felt cold all over.

Finally, he ran for ten miles all the way to the gate of the Yamen of Yingtian Mansion in the center of the city!Then he threw away the whip casually, rolled over in an extremely embarrassing posture, stumbled on the soles of his feet and didn't stop, and staggered towards the door——

"stop!"

Before Sha Xiangyue reached the first step, she was stopped by someone, and two groups of armored soldiers stood guard at the gate of Yingtian Mansion, brightly lit.The Yingtian Mansion tonight is completely different from the Yingtian Mansion on weekdays. In the past, it was always bustling like a vegetable market during the daytime. To kill Xiangyue to repair the mansion, the construction was divided into different periods and sections. All kinds of people were in it. Today's Ying Tianfu had an unattainable majesty in the night, the guards at the gate were not even Ying Tianfu's officers, they were wearing armor uniformed by the Zhejiang army, top helmet and armor, awe-inspiring and inviolable.

Sha Xiangyue's face was full of tears and sweat, she didn't look at that person at all, with a mouthful of blood in her throat, she gasped hard until then, and hissed towards the majestic open door:

"Kuang Jian! Come out——!"

The first batch of prisoners has already been escorted back. Cheng Dabin brought Zhang Hua and others back first to meet them, arrange the interrogation room, arrange the prison, collect the evidence, screen and interrogate-these tasks are very complicated. It can be said that the work tonight Now it's just the beginning, it's far from over, and when he was busy getting away, he suddenly heard someone report that a man in purple was rushing at the door. His heart was shocked, and he went out immediately to check the situation without delay. The guards summoned none of their own people. They had just turned around the back corridor when they first heard the earth-shattering applause. When they went out to face Sha Xiangyue, they had already knocked down two guards!

"stop!"

Cheng Dabin shouted loudly and stopped killing Xiangyue.

Fourth Master explained that when we act tonight, we must avoid confrontation with "Ghost Seeing Sorrow" as much as possible. The final conciliation and persuasion was originally planned by Fourth Master himself, but now there are obvious changes outside. Fourth Master's commander, Ning Chen Run and Kuang Tou, the fourth sons of Yanghou, cooperated in the final operation. Those three have not returned yet. It is said that Jin Chizi slipped away in the chaos. To explain, hold on to Sha Xiangyue.

"Master Killer."

"Where is Kuang Jian!"

After Sha Xiangyue let go of the soldier, he saw a well-informed acquaintance, holding a long knife, rushing towards him.

Cheng Dabin: "Kuangtou is on official duty, and he hasn't come back yet."

Sha Xiangyue: "What business!"

Cheng Dabin: "Surrounded in the west of the city, didn't you just come back from there?"

Sha Xiangyue showed a ferocious expression, looked at Cheng Dabin and smiled slowly: "Okay, official... official, you are so shameless, since you want to arrest people, why don't you confront us head-on, but use such a sinister Taking advantage of others?! Who gave the order? Who made the plan? What about Kuang Jian, let him get out and tell me himself!"

This momentum is really terrifying, as if a stormy sea has been rolled up on the flat ground, Zhang Hua and others all came out after being alarmed. They knew Sha Xiangyue and had a good impression before, but now seeing him tearing up his face in such a disregard of face, plus They had just found out his identity, and they were all terrified and stunned.

It's hard for Cheng Dabin to hold on, he hastily dug out the unexpected response plan prepared by the fourth master in his mind, and tried his best to explain to Sha Xiangyue according to the original words: "The plan against the Taiping Sect started from the time you were escorted into Yingtian Mansion. On the first day, a whole set of plans has been determined, and there are detailed plans for every time node and every step of the implementation progress. Today is just the time to close the network..."

"I don't want to hear from you!" Sha Xiangyue cut him off abruptly, and pointed at Tianfu with a horizontal knife: "Let Kuang Jian come out!"

"I told you, Kuangtou hasn't come back yet!"

Cheng Dabin also became irritable, and the two yelled at each other: "Kill Xiangyue, calm down! I know you have feelings for Kuang Tou, but you need to recognize the situation now. Today's investigation is not your case, today Ying Tianfu What we found was Jin Chizi's hoarding of arms and Xu's murder case! Over the years, your second brother has occupied the west of the city, bullied the market, fought, murdered, smuggled, and have emerged endlessly. You have dealt with them, and you can help us handle the case! If you are willing to provide evidence , in the future, our mansion will ask for credit for your reduced sentence and lenient treatment! Now several officials from the Sanju Division are assisting in the mansion, and Geng Yichun is also there. If you don’t trust me, they can help you analyze it!”

But Sha Xiangyue couldn't understand what the person on the other side was saying. He suddenly leaned on the knife, bowed his waist, and felt a sudden pain in his body, which caused him to stagger on the spot!

Everyone held their breath at that moment and stared at him stiffly, even Cheng Dabin couldn't help frowning.

What a proud person, to be so sad in public.

"Sha Xiangyue, calm down, don't go your own way," Cheng Dabin didn't like Sha Xiangyue, but now he couldn't help slowing down his tone, and sincerely comforted him: "Our house knows your situation well, and we also It's not blindly ruthless, I just hope that you can cooperate with us, give yourself a chance, and help us solve the case as soon as possible, until now...it doesn't matter if I tell you the truth, "

Cheng Dabin felt that he was comforting him and telling him the truth, but if Fourth Master was present, he would know how terrible what he was going to say now——

"The name of our entire operation code is called 'Treasure Lantern Project'... Kuang Tou is with you for the mission, and it is out of necessity to lie to you, I hope you don't take it to heart..."

That was a real blow to the heart.

Sha Xiangyue raised her eyes in a daze, and at that moment, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was thunderous: "What, what...?"

The situation that day was completely chaotic. Violent clashes erupted in front of the gate of Yingtian Mansion. All the guards flashed their sabers, and Sha Xiangyue chopped down several of them in one breath. Cheng Dabin was held hostage. Cheng Dabin's neck and face were full of water stains. It was hard to tell whether it was tears or sweat. While panting heavily, he yelled at them to call Kuang Jian back. No one had seen this situation before. Mr. Li Min was alarmed and livid. Walking out of the mansion with a straight face, a group of people stood in the open space at the gate, surrounded the city and confronted Sha Xiangyue alone.

Soon, there was a sound of horseshoes rushing towards them, followed by the sound of Dudu's powerful footsteps. Kuang Jian pushed the excited and frightened crowd into the encirclement, and looked at Sha Xiangyue with a calm face.

The fireworks just now were a signal to find Jin Chizi who was on the run. Kuang Jian knew him well, and he took people to chase after Jin Chizi. I know what happened halfway, and the troubles appeared like this.

"Put the knife down."

Kuang Jian didn't talk nonsense, and directly ordered Sha Xiangyue: "Sha Xiangyue, put down the knife."

He looked so strange, with a fierce look all over his body, Sha Xiangyue shook her head, and just cried: "He said you lied to me."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Kuang Jian's voice was as cold as iron: "Put down the knife."

Sha Xiangyue seemed to be unable to see anyone other than Kuang Jian, and said word by word, depressed: "He said the painting is fake..."

"He said that the lantern was your plan..."

"He said you were playing with me..."

Sha Xiangyue spoke very slowly, every sentence was like a knife, stabbing her heart like a knife was killing her.

But Kuang Jian got annoyed, so he rushed to Sha Xiangyue in one step, grabbed the real back of the saber with his bare hands, and pushed forward with all his strength!

But it wasn't to grab the knife, but to aim the knife at his chest!

Sha Xiangyue froze there, with sweat all over her face, panting heavily with her mouth open——

"Yes."

Kuang Jian looked into his eyes, spit out the word quickly, then grabbed the knife edge and moved it inch by inch towards her chest: "You want to kill me?"

Sha Xiangyue opened her mouth wide, the pain was so painful that she couldn't make a sound.

In a blink of an eye, Sha Xiangyue's long knife was removed, and her arms were clamped down viciously on the ground!Sha Xiangyue woke up from a trance in a daze, raised her head to realize that she had been subdued, the soldier behind her was used to picking up prisoners, saw him struggling and punched him, Sha Xiangyue shrank all over, pungent The blood poured into the nose, mixed with sweat and fell drop by drop on the ground, but the head refused to hang down, staring at Kuang Jian with red eyes, and the sob was squeezed out from the throat.

He asked anxiously, he had never made such a hopeless voice in his life: "...Kuang Jian, how could you treat me like this...how could you treat me like this..."
