Linze City.
There was chaos in the city. The police were arresting people everywhere, and gangsters and gangsters took the opportunity to come out to smash and loot.
But they found themselves reckless.
Often, as soon as I robbed something, my neighbors would come around and beat me up before I could get far.
The gangsters couldn't understand that the city residents who used to be as timid as sheep have become bolder and more ruthless.
Ergui was such an idle gangster. As soon as he snatched a few pieces of silver, he was surrounded by a group of people and beaten up.
"Bah, you idiot, you have lost your conscience and you even robbed people of their life-saving money."
An aunt kicked her a few times, opened her mouth and spat.
"Yes, how can you be so embarrassed to ask for the money he borrowed to save my life? If you do nothing all day long, you will be jailed by the government sooner or later." Another uncle selling groceries raised his hand and gestured. A beheading gesture.
"Everyone, please send him to the government."
"Just send him to Agent Lin's place."
"right!"
Ergui's mouth was swollen from the beating and a strange thing was stuffed in his mouth, making him unable to speak.
But he can hear it.
After listening to it for a while, I understood why.
It turns out that in every street in Linze City, those who are prestigious are elected and given the identity of a police officer to work for the yamen. As long as they eliminate harm for the people and do not violate the laws of Daqi, these street police officers will You can make the decision to exonerate him.
This is why the residents are not afraid of trouble.
In the past, if something like this happened, even if the case was reported to the police, the cruel officials above would eat the plaintiff and the defendant. Those who hit would be punished, and those who were beaten would also be punished.
In this case, residents can only choose to settle down.
But now that someone has made the decision for them, what else do they have to fear!
Gangsters like Ergui are everywhere in the city, and this time all those who tried to show off were arrested.
In a house in the city.
Long Junhao sat at the desk.
Soon, a killer walked in from outside.
He is none other than Bai, one of the four killers with the word "di" under Long Junhao.
The four land-character killers, green, red, black and white, were lost last time and have been replenished now.
"Sir, the chaos in the city is almost over." Bai lowered his head and said.
"It's all rubbish. If you can't take advantage of such a good opportunity, what future will there be? It's useless to expect some rubbish."
Long Junhao's anger surged and he cursed.
"Those gangsters are people who don't stand on the stage. Otherwise, how could they not have a serious business and just be gangsters."
Bai Dao.
"Forget it, you start the second plan." Long Junhao took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
After the last setback, he is no longer the same person as before. Now, he can control his emotions very well.
"Yes, sir, we're leaving now."
Bai turned around and walked outside.
…
Wei Donglai and others left the prefect's mansion in a carriage.
This carriage was all prepared by the Prefect's Mansion, and the drivers were all selected by Wang Qian.
Sitting in the carriage, I felt very at ease.
Wei Donglai looked at the man sitting opposite and said with a smile: "Sect Master Duanmu, I'm going to leave it to you this time. When we get to the Wei Mansion, I will entertain you well."
Wei Donglai knew that Duanmujin, who was sitting opposite, was the leader of the Qingyun Sect. He was very famous in the world and had extremely high martial arts skills. With him around, he felt much more at ease.
"You're welcome, Mr. Wei. Please listen to my words on this journey." Duanmujin said, playing with the flute in his hand.
"Okay, don't worry, Master Duanmu, I will definitely obey my words."
"Master Duanmu, do you like flutes?"
Wei Donglai asked.
"Yes, I like not only the flute, but also other musical instruments."
Duanmujin smiled slightly.
"Speaking of this musical instrument, I did some research on it back then and got a lot of ancient music." Wei Donglai said.
"Ancient genealogy?" Duanmujin became interested.
"Has the ancient score "Jieshi Diao·Youlan" known to the Duanmu Sect Master? This is an ancient score for percussion instruments. I acquired it from a down-and-out scholar in the past years." Wei Donglai said.
""Jieshi Diao·Youlan", I know it. I thought it was lost. I didn't expect that this ancient tune still exists in this world."
Duanmujin said in surprise.
"When I return to the Wei Mansion, I will take out this ancient genealogy and show it to the sect master." Wei Donglai smiled slightly.
The two chatted about ancient records, and the atmosphere soon became harmonious.
But on the other four carriages, the atmosphere was a bit dull.
In addition to the four gentry, there was also one person sitting on the carriage.
They are the four swords among the Seven Swords of Qingyun.
After getting on the bus, they immediately closed their eyes and adjusted their breathing. No matter how the gentry on the other side asked questions, they just didn't answer.
This was not what Luo Xingchen asked for, it was what they discussed among themselves.
The eldest sister is not here. They are actually quite pure in mind. They are afraid of being provoked by someone's words. It is not good after all. It is better not to say anything.
As long as the nobles are sent back to their homes, the matter will be done.
It would be best if nothing happens on the road, but according to Luo Xingchen, the possibility of something happening on the road is still very high.
So, they are ready.
"Mr. Wei has a deep understanding of music."
After chatting with Wei Donglai for a while, Duanmujin was surprised to find that Wei Donglai did not just talk casually, but actually had a deep study of music.
He knows many ancient compositions and can even sing them a cappella.
"It's embarrassing."
"In the past, when I resigned from office and returned to my hometown, I became disheartened and became a free and easy person."
"I have nothing to do, so I usually study some musical matters, and I also gain a lot of experience. In addition, I also studied ancient chess records, and learned from the blood-vomiting chess games of chess masters thousands of years ago."
Wei Donglai stroked the beard under his forehead with his palm and smiled slightly.
At this moment, a sound suddenly came from outside.
"boom!"
A crossbow bolt made of steel rushed into the carriage, hit the wood, and penetrated deeply.
If this were stabbed into a human body, it would definitely be fatal instantly.
Fortunately, the driver outside changed the direction of the crossbow.
"Mr. Wei, sit tight!"
Duanmujin's eyes flashed, and his body shot out like a sharp arrow.
Waving the flute in his hand, he shot down the incoming crossbow arrows.
He saw that several other carriages were also attacked.
Fortunately, Luo Xingchen had already made arrangements for them to stay in the carriage.
Otherwise, Wei Donglai and the other five people would almost certainly die this time.
"Qianshan, you watch the carriage, the rest of you, follow me to fight the enemy!"
Duanmujin let out a light whistle and rushed forward.
The number of killers who surrounded and killed this time was not large, only about seven or eight.
However, the two leading killers are extremely powerful and can be regarded as first-class warriors in the world.
"You are the killers!"
Duanmujin shouted, raised the suona hanging around his neck, and used his sonic power.
It quickly disrupted the enemy's rhythm.
