Wu Yu

The two of them are comfortable and relaxed here, but the sky on the other side of Liu's courtyard is gloomy and depressing.

There was silence in the room, and everyone breathed lightly on purpose.

Lin Cheng sat on the first seat, his brocade robe was slightly wrinkled, his face sank like water, staring at the kneeling subordinates on the ground, all of them were pale, and they didn't dare to make a single movement, lest they would attract the attention of the superior.

"Everyone is very capable." Lin Cheng said softly, as if he was just muttering to himself.

next moment.

He violently pulled out the saber at his waist, the cold light flashed, and the sharp blade pierced the wind, and it was placed on the neck of the subordinate who caused trouble just now. Zhang Li, are you very assertive?"

The subordinate named Zhang Li's neck froze, and his arms trembled involuntarily. He swallowed and said in panic, "General...general...this subordinate knows his mistake!"

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the sword was a little closer to him, and explained again and again in horror. Lin Cheng looked at his embarrassed and spineless appearance, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes. He swung the sword mercilessly, and the blood spattered On the wooden door, the sharp scream rang only for a moment.

A severed arm fell to the ground, hot blood rushed out, the sticky red twisted, and after a while, it gathered into a pool of blood. Zhang Ligang screamed and was covered by several colleagues at the same time. Mouth, he burst into tears, looking at his missing arm, this is his ruined future!

He howled in pain with a ferocious face, but was hugged tightly by his colleagues.

Lin Cheng looked at this scene indifferently, with a mocking arc on the corner of his mouth, he waved his hand to signal them to get out, one of them seemed to be used to it, cleaned up the blood on stumps in the room, and gently closed the door for him.

Hearing a slight "click", Lin Cheng leaned back on the chair relaxedly, breathing heavily, he closed his eyes, but clenched his hands into fists, Lin Cheng smashed the teacup hard on the ground, splinters of water splashed out, He gritted his teeth and smiled, "Xie's family..."

He took note of this account.

The few people outside the door had just walked a certain distance when they heard this strange noise. Zhang Li lost a lot of blood and his face was pale. He trembled when he heard this sound. It's over."

And his right hand holding Zhang Li was bent awkwardly, although he tried his best to conceal it, it was enough for people to see the whole picture clearly.

He only has three fingers left.

Zhang Li lowered his eyes, a look of resentment flashed across his face, and he replied softly, "Yes."

In Nanling City, the sky was just getting brighter.

The guards in the city lord's mansion patrolled alternately. As they expected, the guards were heavily guarded. Presumably the city lord and the prefect of Nalu were both here. Now they are grasshoppers on the same rope, and they live in fear every day.

Sun Qian and Liu Kui landed on the eaves silently, they could not force their way in, they could only wait for the opportunity, as long as they found out where the city lord and prefect Lu lived, they would be able to take them down in one fell swoop.

This is not difficult.

General Sun Xiao has dived into the enemy's camp, can these two turtles still catch him?

He made a gesture, signaling Liu Kui to cover up, and he used his strength to skim over several roofs, and headed towards the center of the city lord's mansion little by little. He lightly tapped the tiles with his toes, and only made a slight sound like a bird's swallow.

A guard at the end of the line looked back as if feeling something, but found that there was no one behind him. He frowned and looked again. The people in front walked away on their own, and he fell behind unknowingly.

"I'm sorry." A deliberately low voice sounded.

The guard's hair stood on end, and he turned his head abruptly. Before he saw who it was, he was knocked unconscious. Someone caught him, and when he fell down, the person behind him also showed his true face—it was just now that he sensed the opportunity Liu Kui.

Liu Kui resisted the man to a corner, quickly changed into the man's clothes, just in case he was tied up again, stuffed a piece of clothing in his mouth, and hurriedly followed.

The guard in front of him noticed something was wrong and was about to call out, when he saw Liu Kui coming back by himself, the guard lowered his voice and asked, "What's the matter with you kid?"

Liu Kui covered his stomach with his hands, and was about to speak, when the leader in front shouted, "What are the two behind you doing!"

The guard trembled, responded nah na, and stopped talking, Liu Kui put down his hand slowly and breathed a sigh of relief.

The figure on the eaves was passing by quickly. Sun Qian looked around the city lord's mansion for a week, and finally locked on a main house. There were guards patrolling all around, and the lights in the house were brightly lit, as if they had been on all night.

The guards here are all ostentatious, and some of them even nodded their heads, as if they were very sleepy. Even if someone attacked, they would not be able to resist for a long time. The owner here knew it well, and they did it just to reassure themselves.

But there are only two of them now, although it is possible to force their way in, but it will take more time. A better way is to wait and see what happens, and take down the city lord and prefect Lu in one fell swoop.

Sun Qian evaded the guards and approached the central main house a little bit. He could vaguely hear a heated argument inside, which meant that the prefect Lu and the city lord were both in that room, and he felt relieved.

Just at this time, alternate guards came at a neat pace, Sun Qian dodged and hid in the shadows, but no one noticed, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye, and realized that Liu Kui had mixed into the guards.

Sun Qian picked up a stone, and flicked his wrist towards Liu Kui. Liu Kui was hit on his calf, and he quickly reached out to pinch it. He turned his head and saw Sun Qian in the shadow.

Sun Qian made two gestures to him, which they had discussed before. Liu Kui nodded knowingly, followed the group of guards with lowered eyes as if nothing had happened, and Sun Qian approached the main house little by little, as silent as a ghost.

There was a heated argument in the room, and the guards patrolling outside looked numb, as if they had gotten used to it.

"...We are together now, if something happens to me, don't even try to escape!"

"Okay, Lu Sui, I've been taking care of you for so many years, I'm telling you that it has nothing to do with me..."

"It doesn't matter, if you don't insist on killing people! As for today?"

"Bah! You are the one who killed..."

Prefect Lu was arguing with the city lord about something, Sun Qian only listened to the general idea, it was all useless to shirk each other, the quarrel became more and more indiscriminate, they blushed and thick necked, completely unaware that the danger had quietly approached.

It was time for the guards to change again, and the outside of the house became quiet, except for a few guards standing at the door. Their quarrel did not stop, and at this moment, the window was slammed open, making a loud noise!

The two people in the room shook at the same time, shoved each other back in embarrassment, and finally sat down on the ground, just about to shout, but they were held to their throats by a cold sharp object, and they became silent.

When the guards outside heard the noise, they had already broken in. Unfortunately, Sun Qian was even faster. He stepped on the fat head and ears of the city lord, with the sword in his hand resting on Lu Zhifu's neck. He looked up at the intruder The guards, as well as the guards who hurried back behind them, calmly sent the sword forward again.

Prefect Lu's eyes widened in horror, and he stepped back again and again, only to find that his whole body was already against the wall. Seeing that he was about to see blood, he hurriedly yelled out the door, "Don't come here, don't come here!"

As he said that, he smiled at Sun Qian ingratiatingly, with fear and flattery on his face, he hurriedly said, "My lord, spare my life... My lord!"

The guards outside the gate approached, the city lord looked ashen, and was about to order them not to act rashly, when he heard a commotion, he hurriedly looked up, and saw his guard commander was pinned to the ground by an unknown soldier, the cold light flashed, the dagger had already Arrived at his neck.

There was silence for a while, and it seemed that only the heavy breathing of the crowd was left. The faces of Lu Zhifu and the city lord turned pale, and the others did not dare to move. Only then did Sun Qian pat the skin on the side of his neck with the smooth side of the sword in satisfaction, arousing A slice of goosebumps.

"Prefect Lu, Lord City Lord." Sun Qian addressed them solemnly, but it made the two of them stand on end.

He said word by word: "If you don't want to die, just listen to me."

"do you understand?"

How dare the two of them say that they don't understand, they nodded their heads and said, "I understand, I understand!"

From now on, all the guards of the City Lord's Mansion were dismissed, and they began to do good deeds for the first time. The people lost their coercion, and there were children running and playing in the streets.

Sun Qian sent a messenger from the city to Fanzhen with a letter, and he rode his horse and took people to the outskirts of the city to rescue the people who were imprisoned and infected with the plague.

------

Fanzhen, the attic.

A boy about sixteen or seventeen held half a page of shredded paper in his hand, and his whole body was in the shadows. One of his hands was in a half-rotten state, and it seemed to be inflamed from a pustule that had been dug open. He stared at it intently. That place, trembling uncontrollably.

The shredded paper in his hand was crumpled and fell out from between his fingers, but he still stared at the empty palm, as if in a daze, until the voice of someone talking came from afar, he was like a dream He wanted to run as if he was just waking up, but just as he took a step, he seemed to remember something, hurriedly picked up the shredded paper that fell on the ground, turned around and ran.

inside the house.

Xie Lingyu was patrolling Zhenxi when he received the letter from the courier. He handed the letter paper to Qingqiu Jue beside him, and couldn't help saying, "As you expected."

Qingqiu Jue glanced casually indifferently, seeing that Sun Qian had successfully controlled Nanling, tore off the letter with his slender fingers, and threw it away casually, "Everything is ready, we will send Lin Cheng away, Our people will be able to release the news."

The outside world does not know that there is such a plague in Fanzhen. The letter has been sent to the capital. Presumably, the heavy killing can also guess the strangeness. They have all the evidence now. As long as they send away the trouble of Lincheng, they can deal with the rest with peace of mind. next thing.

"He won't stay longer, after what happened yesterday, he is already at a disadvantage, and he won't seek humiliation anymore." Qingqiu Jue pondered for a moment, and said firmly.

Xie Lingyu nodded in agreement. Today, in order to restore his image, Lin Cheng followed their example and went door-to-door to help. However, everyone heard that they had a disagreement yesterday, so they naturally helped Xie Lingyu, who was humble and polite, and treated them very well. .

These subordinates are like rats crossing the street. They are used to domineering and domineering on weekdays. Not only did they fail to restore their reputation, but on the contrary, they made everyone even more disgusted.

Qingqiu Jue calmed down, flipped through the books seriously with downcast eyes, Xie Lingyu didn't make a sound, just quietly accompanied him.Although the prescription developed by Lu Hui and the others is not suitable for everyone, it is no longer a prescription that can only be postponed.

Many suitable people have gradually recovered. The pustules no longer grow and fester, and the swelling has disappeared. This progress has also made other people see hope.

From time to time, there would be chatter in Zhenxi's house, and it was no longer as lifeless as before.
