Toyodan lived day by day in such fear.
Renyin has arrived, and Feng Duan also specially strengthened the protection inside and outside the mansion on this day. And the Jiafu Ding family members up and down were working almost day and night just to protect his safety.
On the other hand, Shu Niu is also doing his best, trying every means to capture the "ghosts" that Feng Duan is chasing around.
But since the last battle with him failed, the ghost seems to have disappeared a lot. In the past few days, he has not appeared in the vegetable market and sheep shop again.
However, there are still rumors of ghosts haunting other parts of the city. And the rumors about "Toyodan Checkmate" never stopped for a moment.
At night, Shu Niu did not dare to neglect and once again led his troops to search around the city, but still found nothing. At the same time, everyone inside and outside Feng Mansion was completely surrounded.
Fan Li and Owl Yi watched from a distance. They were also very curious. Faced with such strict protection, would the ghost come to fulfill its "ghost words"?
Shu Niu was currently patrolling the city, and suddenly got news that the headless man was rumored to be in the west of the city again!
So Shu Niu immediately led his men to round him up, but when he arrived with his servants and soldiers, he found that the headless man had floated to a height of seven or eight feet again, and seemed to be floating in the wind, dripping from time to time. The black liquid that came down had a strong smell of blood.
Shu Niu took a breath of cold air and ordered his people to shoot arrows at him quickly. But because the headless man floated too high, although the arrow could reach it, even if it did, it would be at the end of its powerful crossbow.
Shooting it on the headless man was like shooting it on a piece of cloth, with no effect at all.
Seeing the headless man floating again, arrows also landed one after another.
Then, Dan saw it pounce on the ground at an extremely fast speed, and as usual, it quickly disappeared into the night.
Shu Niu led his men to chase him. They ran for several miles, but there was no trace of the headless man!
Shu Niu was feeling doubtful, but suddenly he remembered something and couldn't help shouting:
"Quick! Quick! Go back to Feng Mansion!"
Later, Shu Niu led a large number of people and rushed all the way to Feng Mansion.
When I arrived at the gate, I found that the house was in chaos.
Shu Niu's heart couldn't help but sink, and he secretly screamed that something was wrong.
Feng Mansion was crowded with guards at the moment, and Shu Niu and others were directly blocked by the guards.
I heard Shu Niu calling inward loudly at this time:
"I want to meet Lord Boshi! I have something important to report!"
When the soldiers heard these words, they said in a deep voice:
"Something happened to Mr. Boshi. What are you going to do when you are yelling here?!"
Hearing this, Zhu Niu almost sat down on the ground, his voice trembling:
"What...Master Boshi...has something happened to him?"
The commander of the soldiers took a look at Shu Niu and knew that Shu Niu was the popular man in front of Feng Duan during this period, so he put him in alone:
"Hey...go and see for yourself!"
Shu Niu was uneasy and trotted all the way to the bedroom where Feng Duan rested. As soon as I arrived at the small courtyard, I heard bursts of crying from the female family members.
Zhu Niu put his hands on his knees, took a breath, and then went to check the situation. At this time, Toyodan's first wife and two other concubines were seen crying bitterly on Toyodan's body.
But Feng Duan was lying on the ground, his face turned blue, and he had been dead for a long time.
Looking at his body, there was no blood at all, and the cause of death was unknown. The servants, soldiers, and maids were all in chaos.
Shuniu forced his way in and took a closer look. He found that there seemed to be a black mark on Fengduan's throat. When he was about to take a closer look, he was pushed aside by several children.
These are all the juniors of Feng Duan. Shu Niu was squeezed farther and farther away in the chaos, and was pushed to the door instead.
Shu Niu's brain was racing and he didn't dare to stay here any longer. In a hurry, he wanted to go back to the Ji Mansion first.
He trotted all the way, with only a few servants of the Ji family following him in the darkness. There were many figures, and Shu Niu lowered his head to see the figures, and then thought of the headless man, and Feng Duan who had just been killed mysteriously.
"Kill Feng Duan, Ren Yin day, Feng Duan died... In this world... is it possible that there are really ghosts causing trouble?"
"The reason why I, Shu Niu, am able to control the situation when I return to Zheng State this time, must have the support of Master Bo Shi. But now that he is dead, don't I have no support again? Now Li Ran and Ji Le are in the city Besides, there are probably many people in the Ji clan who are thinking about how to deal with me!"
The more Zhu Niu thought about it, the more frightened he became, and bursts of cold sweat broke out on his back. After being blown by the cold wind again, I couldn't help but shudder.
At this moment, the servants suddenly stopped. While Shu Niu was thinking about something, he bumped into one of the servants. Before he could get angry, he suddenly found the headless man standing right in front of him.
I saw the headless man holding a big sword, facing him head-on. Although the head could not be seen, it always made people feel that it was looking at the vertical cow, and the vertical cow was even more chilly.
However, Shu Niu was also a person who had experienced big things after all. He quickly calmed down and plucked up the courage to draw his sword and said angrily:
"Hmph! You young man! He's still pretending to be a ghost here! Whoever comes and takes it down will be rewarded heavily!"
But the servants didn't dare to act rashly when they saw such a terrifying situation in front of them. And the headless man flashed and charged directly towards the vertical bull.
Shu Niu pushed the two servants beside him out. The two servants had no choice but to stab the spears in their hands. The headless man sidestepped and avoided. Shu Niu took a few steps back, drew out the sword from his waist, and at the same time He shouted:
"Don't be afraid, everyone. This man is just playing tricks, and he is definitely not a ghost! Don't be deceived by his heresy. If you kill this man, you will be rewarded with a thousand coins! If you catch this man alive, you will be rewarded with tens of thousands of coins!"
As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a heavy reward. After hearing these words, the servants couldn't help but take a deep breath, and then they rushed forward one after another. Their spears were like stars in the darkness, pointing at the headless man.
Unexpectedly, the headless man's skills were also extremely flexible, and he avoided all the vital points while flipping around. Only some long swords pierced his armor and made a harsh metal scraping sound.
The headless man used his sword to kill directly in front of Shu Niu. A cold light flashed, and the big sword was about to chop off Shu Niu's head.
This sword strikes fast and hard, it can be said that a tiger is like a tiger!
Shu Niu subconsciously raised his sword to block, only to hear a "dang" sound as the sword in his hand collided with the big sword. Zhu Niu only felt the pain from the tiger's mouth, and his whole arm felt numb. In a panic, he rolled on the spot and avoided the headless man's second sword.
Fortunately, a few servants were also very brave. With a "pop" sound, they raised their weapons and stabbed the headless man in the waist. But the headless man remained motionless, as if he felt no pain at all. However, when the spear was pulled out, someone discovered that there was a slight trace of blood on the tip of the spear.
In this way, everyone will know that this person is a mortal after all, and they will not be so afraid. As a result, the servants all rushed to the front and surrounded the headless man.
Shuniu also took advantage of this opportunity and fled in a hurry. The headless man was entangled by these people and couldn't get away for a while. He was injured and he didn't want to fight. He just roared, waved his sword a few times, and walked away.
Shu Niu narrowly escaped death, and Feng Duan was no longer around. He knew that he could no longer stay in Zheng Yi, so he fled out of the city overnight...
However, Feng Duan died mysteriously at home, and the news that "Bo You's ghost committed murder again" continued to ferment in Zheng Yi. For a time, the entire Zhengyi city was filled with panic.
Even Zheng Boning is no exception.
If we talk about Si Dai's death, it's easy to say. However, as the ruling minister, Feng Duan's unprovoked death undoubtedly had a huge impact on Zheng Guo.
What's more, the army led by Li Ran was stationed outside the city at the moment, and Zheng Boning suddenly lost his backer. He has to face the threat of "Bo You" internally and Li Ran's army externally. How should he deal with it now?
