At six o'clock in the morning, Han Jun was escorted out of the city by Scarface and other gang members.
Another hour later, Su Mingchang arrived at the alley early to wait for Yang Shun.
Wei Zhuang accompanied Yang Shun out and reminded him in a low voice, "The attitude has been a little better these days. We must stabilize Su Mingchang and Yan Li."
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely complete the mission!" Yang Shun was already guilty of embezzling Zhenjiang Silver, so he cherished this opportunity to make meritorious deeds.
Facing Su Mingchang, Yang Shun greeted him with a smile. The two sat in the same carriage and had a good conversation along the way.
Su Mingchang didn't think much about it. He just thought Yang Shun was in a good mood today, so he complimented him even harder.
On the other side, Wei Zhuang was waiting for Zhou Ziqing in the yard, preparing to go to the south of the city to find a land gang to negotiate.
Zhou Ziqing changed into a dark red outfit, with a neat ponytail, and he looked particularly refreshing.
"Why are you always staring at me?" Zhou Ziqing frowned.
"Haha, I think you're very good-looking." For some reason, since the last time he saw the shy blushing look of the little woman, Wei Zhuang especially liked teasing her.
As expected, Zhou Ziqing's face turned red again. She spat softly, cursed "foolish king", and then handed over a knife.
Wei Zhuang was stunned, "What is this?"
Zhou Ziqing glared and put the knife into his hand: "It's for you!"
The knife is over four feet long. The scabbard is made of wood and feels smooth to the touch. Wei Zhuang held the handle of the knife and pulled out half of the blade. A cold light suddenly appeared, and the blade looked particularly clear in the sunlight.
"What a great knife!" Wei Zhuang couldn't help but praise, "This knife was just struck out not long ago, right?"
"How do you know?" Zhou Ziqi was a little surprised.
"Haha, I have used countless weapons, so you can definitely tell."
"Hmph, bragging."
Wei Zhuang pinched his chin and looked at her, and said slowly: "Putting aside bragging or not, why did you think of making weapons for me?"
Zhou Ziqing's expression suddenly became very unnatural, "This operation is dangerous, so of course I have to give you weapons for self-defense!"
"No, it took at least three days to make this knife. Did you know today's action at that time?"
"I……"
"Zhou Ziqing." Wei Zhuang stared at her with an ambiguous look in his eyes, "You made this knife specially for me, right?"
"You fart!" Zhou Ziqing's earlobes were flushed, and he paused for a few seconds before gritting his teeth and uttering a sentence, "You saved my life a few days ago, and this knife is a gift in return. Now we don't owe each other anything. "
Wei Zhuang raised his brows and thought for a moment. The little woman was probably talking about the time the Broadsword Gang came to cause trouble a few days ago.
Hearing this, he deliberately showed a disappointed expression, shook his head and whispered: "I thought you liked me."
"Uh..." Zhou Ziqing stayed in place with his mouth open, his eyes revealing disbelief.
She was probably going to become a robot again. Wei Zhuang's words just now were like a string of garbled codes that she couldn't decipher or react to. To put it simply, Zhou Ziqing's brain was down...
Fortunately, Wei Zhuang was used to her being like this, so he directly took her wrist and walked out: "Brother, let's go."
Zhou Ziqing let him drag him out of the yard as if he had lost his soul.
After walking a few steps, Wei Zhuang stopped in the middle of the alley. He looked at the entrance of the alley warily, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Baby, there's a problem."
"Um……"
Wei Zhuang turned around and saw that she was still dumbfounded. He regretted teasing her just now. He patted Zhou Ziqing's head and said seriously: "Wake up, something went wrong!"
"Huh?" Zhou Ziqing finally woke up, but he was still a little confused, "What's the problem?"
"Where are the people from the Xia Ke Gang?"
"Going to see Han Jun off."
"Where are the vendors at the alley?"
"Stall vendors?" Zhou Ziqing looked at the deserted alley and couldn't help but frowned, "Yan Li just invited them back yesterday, why are they not here again today, and..."
Moreover, there were no cries around, and there was not a single pedestrian passing by the alley.
It's past seven in the morning, and it's strange that the busiest street in Tianzhou Mansion is so deserted.
The expressions of Wei Zhuang and Zhou Ziqing became solemn, and their hands were placed on the handles of their knives.
The next moment, without warning, dozens of people crowded into the alley.
Among the people in black was Yan Li, who had a gloomy face and eyes filled with murderous intent.
A strong sense of oppression hit his face. Zhou Ziqing's pupils shrank and his face turned pale.
"Go back to the yard!" Wei Zhuang grabbed Zhou Ziqing, pulled her into the yard and locked the door.
Different from Zhou Ziqing's panic, Wei Zhuang was much calmer at this moment. After all, he had been on the battlefield and faced bigger scenes.
boom! boom! boom!
The banging on the door was deafening, and it seemed particularly abrupt in the silent environment. The sound was like a countdown. If you were a person with poor psychological endurance, you would probably be so frightened that your legs would weaken.
Why did Yan Li bring so many people here?
Does he know what happened yesterday?
Isn't he afraid that Yang Shun will blame him?
Questions were swirling in Wei Zhuang's head, but he had no time to think about them. The most important thing now was to escape!
"Go to the backyard and dig out!"
The two of them ran to the backyard and easily reached the wall. However, just when Wei Zhuang was about to jump off, his heart trembled violently!
The alley where the backyard was located was full of men in black, with pairs of dark eyes staring at him closely.
Wei Zhuang jumped back into the courtyard and took a breath of cold air.
He completely understood his current situation.
This is……
Desperate situation!
Canglanglang!
The sound of the sharp blade being unsheathed was frightening. Zhou Ziqing squatted on the wall, clutching the handle of the knife tightly. She looked down at the man in black in the alley, her eyes revealing unprecedented determination.
"What are you doing!" Wei Zhuang said in horror.
"Kill out!"
"There are so many people, how can you possibly kill them? If you jump down, it will turn into a hornet's nest."
"Then what do you think we should do?" Zhou Ziqing said through gritted teeth.
Wei Zhuang took a deep breath, and the cold air entered his lungs, making his brain clearer.
He said solemnly: "Come back to the house with me."
Somehow, looking at Wei Zhuang's calm face, Zhou Ziqing suddenly felt very safe, so without saying anything else, he jumped back into the yard and followed Wei Zhuang back to the house.
The moment the two closed the door to the house, there was a roar outside.
The courtyard door was smashed!
Then there were noisy footsteps.
Suddenly, the voice calmed down, and a figure walked slowly, from blur to clarity, and gradually approached the door.
Zhou Ziqing stood in the living room, pointing the blade at the door.
Wei Zhuang entered the bedroom, rustling and wondering what he was busy with.
A voice sounded that was so cold that it made people shiver.
"Zhou Ziqing, I saw you..."
