Snapped!
Snap, snap, snap——
Zheng Quchi was concentrating on thinking about things when he heard the two people next to him squirming around like they had fleas on their bodies. You slapped them and I slapped them, making noise.
"Be quiet."
"No, what kind of tree is this? There are so many mosquitoes at night that my body is itching to death." Xiaosan complained in a low voice.
Xiaoqi also said "hmm" in a low voice.
The mistress suddenly realized that Zheng Quchi seemed to be fine. He lost his balance: "No, why are they only biting us two brothers? Could it be that these mosquitoes can be bullied by others?"
Zheng Quchi was also convinced. She searched for it in her crossbody bag, then took out two pieces of thinly sliced wood and threw them to them: "Take it, and the mosquitoes will naturally stay away from you."
"What is this?" Xiaosan spread it out in his hand and looked at it over and over.
Xiaoqi even brought it up to her nose and sniffed it, feeling that the smell was quite good.
Zheng Quchi opened his head to avoid touching it with his mouth: "This is the mosquito-repellent incense camphor wood I made. It was soaked in a special potion and dried in the sun. Don't eat it by mistake. Wear it on your body every day. You can use it to repel insects and mosquitoes.”
They knew it was a good thing as soon as they heard it, and immediately put it in their pockets and patted it securely. The two faces grinned in exactly the same way and said, "Thank you."
Seeing that the two of them had finally calmed down, Zheng Quchi turned back and continued to stare. However, after just a short delay, a huge change occurred below.
The stars and moon were obscured, the sky was dark, and the howling evil wind was pouring into the winding road. The people and horses were getting closer. Perhaps they sensed the dangerous atmosphere of the impending wind and rain. Their hurried footsteps gradually slowed down in the night.
But no matter how cautious he is, if he doesn't stop in time, he will fall into the hunting ground of wolves that have been ambushing him for a long time.
I saw many boulders falling unexpectedly on the long slopes on both sides of the mountain col. Due to the dim light, the people below heard the movement, but could not immediately tell the direction of escape. The rumbling falling was accompanied by stones and dust. This time The horses were frightened and neighed, and the voices of the people were chaotic.
"Quick, run forward!"
The road behind was blocked by these big rocks and half-rolled gray mud. People could walk, but it was difficult for the carriage to cross, so they had no choice but to continue running forward.
They whipped their horses and wanted to escape from this disaster area. However, they did not know that this was exactly what the road bandits wanted. They were speeding into the encirclement of the road bandits without realizing it.
A noose tightened quickly and trapped the horse's legs. More people stepped on the traps set by the road bandits in advance. They were immediately turned upside down. At the same time, booming explosions continued to sound, there were loud fires, and thick smoke billowing, causing even more damage. A messy scene.
Under this mountain wall, there is a path that is more than ten meters wide at its widest and only a few meters wide at its narrowest. It clings to the mountain wall and winds up to the top of the mountain in three turns every ten steps. It would be difficult for them to escape from here.
Because this road is the bloody mouth carefully selected by the road bandits to "devour". This trail is the "throat". The more panicked they run, the more they fall into a trap.
At night, both the towering forests and the majestic valleys are silent and dark, except for this area where all the light, heat and noise are concentrated.
Under such a thrilling and terrifying movement, the horses were frightened and people were injured. The carriage was naturally a burden, which directly shocked the people in the carriage and had to climb out of the carriage, and then the guards helped them get out of the car.
Zheng Quchi was watching from above, until she saw the people escaping from the carriage, her eyes widened in shock.
How could it be, was it him? !
That man with a feminine demeanor that was different from a normal man, that fat and shrill man, wasn't it the chief eunuch she had dealt with not long ago? !
Zheng Quchi was stunned.
Damn it, these road bandits are so brave! Do they know where these people come from? !
One is a close confidant of King Ye, and the other is an important minister in the court. If they are really allowed to do this, what's the point? !
I'm afraid that their Fu County will never have peace from now on!
"Do you know who they are?" Zheng Quchi asked Xiaosan and Xiaoqi.
The mistress turned her head and saw Zheng Quchi's extremely serious expression at the moment. She felt a little guilty inexplicably: "Brother Xing'an said that these people come from rich places. You can tell they are rich just by looking at the cost of their clothes. But in detail, We don’t quite know who they are.”
Zheng Quchi: "..."
She screamed and roared in her heart - you don't know anything, how dare you go and rob? !
A princess from Sheng'an encountered road bandits and disappeared in their Fu County. This matter had already caused King Ye to urgently send his chief manager to come and hold the matter accountable. The situation was still unclear and only suspicion.
But this time, the matter was clear and unambiguous. Both the important ministers were robbed in Fu County until even their trousers were left. Then wouldn’t the people in their camp who grew up in Tongpo become the scapegoats again?
No, she had to stop them before the situation became more serious.
"Where is Xing'an now?"
She stood up in vain.
Xiao San and Xiao Qi were shocked: "What are you doing?"
"You can't ask them to rob this group, or something big will happen!" Zheng Quchi said tightly.
The mistress asked in panic: "Big deal? What big deal?"
The two little ones were very confused, completely unaware of the seriousness of this matter.
"There's no time to explain now, let's go find someone quickly."
——
The one Zheng Quchi was calling Xiao San and Xiao Qi to take her all the way there. The other one saw that everything was going very smoothly. The other party's personnel were severely damaged and trapped in the trail. The road bandits came from the darkness. Rushed over in a swaggering manner.
They are really arrogant, doing such illegal robberies, but they don't even bother to cover their faces.
The chief eunuch was helped from the carriage to the ground. He was still in shock, wondering who was trying to harm them, until this group of road bandits appeared.
He narrowed his small eyes and looked at the poor attire of these people: "Who are you?!"
The road bandit glared fiercely and raised his knife: "If you are sensible, hand over all the valuable things you have on you as soon as possible, otherwise we will kill you!"
Mr. Li was protected from behind. He straightened his crown and understood in an instant: "You are the road bandits?!"
"Hahahaha, brothers, they have now recognized which road we are from. It seems that we are still not experienced enough." The road bandits laughed.
The chief eunuch said angrily: "Do you know who we are?"
He wanted to tell his identity to intimidate the other party, but he didn't expect that these gangsters had no money at all and only cared about money.
"Who are you? Even if you are the King of Heaven and I are here, we dare to take action. Stop talking nonsense and take out the things quickly. Otherwise, our brothers will do it ourselves in a while, and you will be the first to eat!" The road bandit said fiercely.
"Be bold and bold!"
At this point, the chief eunuch still didn't realize his situation, and still thought that he was being praised for his stinky feet in the palace.
"You are so bold and bold!"
The road bandit didn't tolerate him, and just shouted louder and more fiercely at him.
Mr. Liu quickly stepped forward and pulled the chief eunuch away. After all, he was a female gangster engaged in literary prison, and his brain was always online. He knew that he must not anger these desperadoes at this time. Since they were seeking money, it was best The only solution is to sacrifice your wealth to save your life.
He used his eyes to signal the chief eunuch not to be impulsive. As the saying goes, a gentleman's revenge is never too late. This matter will never end. Sooner or later, they will make these road bandits die without a burial place.
"It seems that this adult is still aware of current affairs. It would be great if he could do this earlier and obediently take out all the money." Xing'an smiled and waved. They showed their fierce looks and took out their weapons one after another.
Now that most of the guards on their side were injured, it was really difficult to break through. Mr. Liu endured his anger and ordered people to throw all the valuable things in the car to the ground.
superior.
However, the road bandits were not satisfied yet: "What about you?"
So, Master Liu and the others gritted their teeth, took off their accessories and pendants, and threw them forward together.
At this time, Xing'an still seemed to be dissatisfied. His deep eyes, like inorganic snake eyes, swayed around them and said with a smile on his lips: "The clothes you are wearing look like they are worth a lot of money. And take it off."
What? !
Forget about asking for money, now even the clothes they wear to hide their naked bodies are not spared!
It’s so deceiving!
The chief eunuch couldn't swallow this breath, but a mere country gangster dared to bully and trample on our family?
He immediately cursed angrily: "It's all women who are causing trouble. Such a large military camp is calm here, but you are allowed to be so arrogant as road bandits!"
Just as he rushed to the rescue, he heard the eunuch's insulting remarks: "..."
She knew it!
She knew that once something happened to these people, they would never look for the reason in themselves, or discuss the matter as it happened, and the blame would be the same as the blame.
They will be angry, blame, resentful, and think that everything is other people's fault and caused by others. Even gender can be a mistake now!
"You won't take it off, right? Then let us brothers help you!"
The road bandits were gearing up and planning to attack with a sinister look on their faces.
Mr. Liu and the others' faces turned red, they were angry and frightened, and they retreated repeatedly. They even considered fighting to the death, which was better than having their clothes stripped and tortured to this point, which was extremely embarrassing.
"etc!"
Zheng Quchi quickly stepped forward to stop him.
She was still late and did not stop them from showing up. Now this situation is so incompatible that it has clearly offended the chief eunuch and Mr. Liu, and it is difficult to make things right.
The road bandit suddenly heard this shout to stop, and turned around with Xing'an, only to see Xiaosan Xiaoqi and the new "Xiao Zheng" running over together, panting.
"Xiao Zheng" even tore a piece of cloth over her face, and she walked up to Xing'an covertly.
Xing'an was quite curious about her current sneaky appearance, and he said, "What are you waiting for?"
The road bandits didn't understand what she meant when she suddenly appeared and shouted "Wait a minute."
"I have a few words that I would like to have a private chat with Brother Xing'an." Zheng Quchi lowered his voice.
Xing'an said, "Didn't you see that I was doing business? If there's anything else, let's talk about it later."
Zheng Quchi grabbed him and said patiently, "It will be too late if we tell you later."
Xing'an seemed to understand something. He glanced at the chief eunuch and asked, "Are you rushing here in such a hurry because of them?"
"It's not...I..." She didn't know how to explain it for a moment.
The road bandits frowned at Zheng Quchi, while the team on Master Liu's side also looked at Zheng Quchi with suspicion and surprise.
It's a woman... I didn't expect that there were women among the road bandits.
However, Xing'an persuaded her to give up her intention: "It's come to this point, there's no way I'm going to stop."
"Stop now, there is still room for recovery." She moved closer to him, wanting to whisper to him about the other person's origins and identity.
"Oh, I see... you think you still have room for redemption?" He looked at her with a half-smile, but in the next second, he pulled off the mask from her face: "You covered your face and did it very?"
The moment the scarf left her face, Zheng Quchi's head exploded. She instinctively glanced in the direction of the eunuch chief, then reacted, turned her head around at lightning speed, and covered her face with her hands.
"What are you doing taking off my hijab?!"
She asked Xing'an angrily.
She spoke softly, for fear that others would recognize her original voice.
However, it was still too late.
The chief eunuch looked strange at first, with thoughtful eyes.
, finally recalling it for a moment, his eyes were as wide as bells. He pointed at Zheng Quchi and shouted: "It turns out it's you——"
"not me--"
She covered her face with her hands and immediately retorted.
However, the chief eunuch was very sure at this time: "It's you. I never thought you would collude with the road bandits. I know, you are the one who is behind it. Our family will definitely report this matter - —"
puff--
The sharp sound stopped suddenly, and a large amount of blood continued to spurt out from the throat of the chief eunuch.
Before the head eunuch finished speaking, the man clutched his throat, fell to the ground covered in blood, and died with his eyes open. qδ.net
The moment he stared blankly at his dead face, Zheng Quchi had only one thought in his mind - it was over.
This is a big problem!
Master Liu was stunned when he saw that the chief eunuch died so easily in front of him. He was shaking like a sieve. He originally wanted to say something, but now he shut up completely.
He looked at Xing'an in horror, who was still smiling after killing the person, and then at Zheng Quchi, who had a dull look on his face, as if he had determined that she was the one who instigated these road bandits to kill people behind the scenes, and that she had already rebelled against the emperor and the country.
Zheng Quchi stroked his forehead with a headache.
This matter... has become complicated because of the death of an important person, and I'm afraid it won't be easy.
She thought that if the culprits like Xing'an were not brought to justice, King Ye would definitely use her and Xuan Jiajun as "eggplants" to bear all the blame. After all, what a good excuse for remediation.
She turned her head, looked at Xing'an, and asked calmly: "Do you really know who they are?"
"Aren't they from the imperial court?" Xing'an replied disapprovingly.
It seems that he still knows the first one, but unfortunately there is also the second one.
"Yes, they are from the imperial court, but they are not the ordinary imperial officials you think of."
"What do you mean?" Xing'an looked slightly condensed.
She pointed at the corpse on the ground: "The one you killed was King Ye's personal chief eunuch, who was equivalent to King Ye's right-hand man. You disabled one of King Ye's hands as soon as you took action. Guess if King Ye knew about it, How angry would it be?"
