Border town yamen.
The sounds of fighting continued.
The two parties fought from the back hall to the lobby and then outside the Yamen.
Xiang Qian hid under the trial table in the Yamen lobby and shivered. During the break, he bravely lifted the tablecloth hanging from the floor and took a look outside. All he saw were silver-armored soldiers and men in black lying on the ground not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
I want to cry for money but have no tears.
He just wants to make a little money and stay leisurely and secure in his position until he reaches his official position. Why is it so difficult!
These little bastards from the penal colony messed with his warehouse last time, and this time they are going to tear down his entire yamen!
The table shook slightly, the tablecloth was lifted, and a black shadow quickly came in.
The visitor straightened the crooked master's hat on his head, raised his head and met Xiang Qian's eyes.
"..."
"..."
"Sir, it's too dangerous outside. I'll hide here with you."
"I'm here to pick up something."
The two looked at each other again, each tilting his head.
well!
Fortunately, all the government officials also found places to hide, and those who died were unknown to them.
Afterwards, I made a small note to explain the matter.
He who does not know is not guilty.
The people outside the Yamen also ran out early in the morning.
A fight with real swords and guns. No one in the border town dared to watch the excitement, lest someone accidentally kill him.
Tianbao grabbed the sword and saw blood sealing his throat. He frowned as he looked at the fewer and fewer silver-armored soldiers and the few remaining men in black.
After a moment, the girl's eyes darkened, a sharp light flashed in her eyes, "Kill them all!"
Wei Li and Bai Yu also had serious eyes, and they acted more decisively.
The three boys from the Su family didn't hesitate.
In an instant, the smell of blood outside the government office became stronger.
After the remaining party members were dealt with, the six people left without delay.
The carriage was destroyed and we could only walk on our way back.
"There is something wrong with this ambush." After leaving the city gate, Tianbao frowned slightly, "Although the people who came are not weak, they are definitely not high. With these people, they can't stop us at all. In this case, the other party is still doing this. There must be some other purpose behind the move."
Bai Yu turned around and curled his fingers, flicked her frowning eyebrows, and said with a smile, "Didn't Master say that the other party had already expected us to be the ones who came to receive the order. The skills of those soldiers in silver armor and those in black were average. , it’s not enough to catch us, so their purpose is not really to take us down——”
Wei Li pursed his lips and said in a deep voice, "It's more like testing our skills and feeling our martial arts skills."
Su Wu suddenly realized, "Oh! No wonder! Why did I send so many soft-footed shrimps? It turns out those people are here to be cannon fodder!"
Su Wen chuckled, "Medium-skilled people can be used as cannon fodder. They can fight with us longer than ordinary officers and soldiers. It's the most suitable way to learn our martial arts. You won't be able to see the moves we use because of how fast you burp, and you won't be able to Because the damage is too big, it hurts the muscles and bones.”
Su An concluded, "It turns out that you want to know yourself and the enemy so that you can win a hundred battles! The people behind it are so dirty!"
The six of them looked at each other and had the same idea.
If the other party was interested in exploring their martial arts skills and finally targeted them one by one, they would have killed all those people today, and it would probably be useless.
There must be someone watching the whole fight in the dark places in the city.
Like a chess game, their game with each other has just been completed and the first piece has been placed.
The wrinkles between Tianbao's brows that had been flicked away by the boy had a tendency to crawl back. At this time, the fingers hanging by his sides were hooked by someone familiar: What are you worried about?
Tian Bao glanced back and took the photo: Wei Li's identity might be exposed.
Bai Yu walked side by side with the girl and looked ahead. The sky was gray, and the wind blowing in was just right after the fierce battle.
He raised the corners of his lips and smiled casually: "There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Wei Li is no longer the Wei Li he was before, let alone us."
Beside them, the three boys from the Su family were still laughing and joking heartlessly, but those analyzes did not leave any trace in their hearts at all.
Wei Li fell slightly behind a few people, watching the three of them quarreling, and also saw the silent conversation between the other two, such a tacit understanding.
He lowered his eyes, feeling disappointed for a moment and relieved for a moment, with a slight smile on his lips.
He's been away for too long.
But there will always be a place for him here, in the home.
"By the way, I remembered it. When Wei Li left, didn't we agree to give him a good beating when he came back?" Su Wu patted his head and his eyes shone brightly. He turned around and pounced on Wei Li without a fight. "Brother saw that you played well just now, so come and show off!"
Wei Li turned his head to avoid the blow, the smile on his lips grew wider, and he raised his eyebrows, "Brother? You are a little younger."
"That's Senior Brother too! Watch your moves!"
"How can such a thing be done without me as the eldest brother? I happened to be interrupted last time in the woods, so I will make up for it this time!"
"Tsk, don't do it! Don't do it! It's so insulting to gentlemen, I'll do it!"
The four teenagers were running and playing tricks on the way home. Tianbao was so tempted that he clenched his fists to catch them by surprise.
The person walking next to me hugged my arm and said, "Tianbao, please don't go up. If you go up, we won't have any fun!"
"..." Tianbao hit Bai Yu's face with his ready fist.
From the front, four people laughed, "Hahahaha, Bai Yu, keep an eye on Tianbao, this important task will be left to you, brotherhood will always be in your heart!"
Bai Yu: Grass.
It's not you who are in pain!
When they returned to Tubei Village, Bai Yu was the only one with hair all over his head.
…
Yulin Town, thirty miles away from Yuncheng.
In the guest room on the third floor of the dilapidated inn, the wooden window was half-open, letting in a faint light.
In the dim light, beside the old four-corner wooden table, a man in brocade clothes was sitting upright, and the aura around him was incompatible with this situation.
"Your Majesty, the spies from the border town have reported that the martial arts methods used by those people are from the same lineage as Yuan Yao, and they must have been taught by Yuan Yao. There are a total of six people who came this time. Judging from their voices, they all He is a young man in his teens. Among those who have such ability at this age in the place of exile, four are from the Xiao Su family, the other is Bai Yu, the son of Bai Kui, and the identity of another person has not yet been identified."
The personal guard paused and continued, "But there is something suspicious, which may be traceable. After the Royal Autumn Festival in Changjing, Wei Li, the trusted captain, received Hong De's secret order to go to the place of exile with the intention of recovering the place of exile. "
The man in brocade clothes closed his eyes slightly and said in a very calm voice, "Wei Li joined the army at the age of twelve. We only know that he was born in the small land of Yizhou and has no father or mother. The rest of the information is a mystery."
He slowly opened his eyes, "Send someone to Yizhou to investigate. If there is anything suspicious, immediately pass the information to Hong De's ears. With his suspicious temperament, he may be able to guess Wei Li's identity."
"yes!"
"This is a trivial matter. Regardless of Wei Li's identity, it will have little impact on our plan." The man thought of the fighting outside Yuncheng, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "What we really have to deal with is the place of exile. This time the poison will not Intrusion and Pier 12 teamed up to ambush us... our escape was a bit too easy."
"What do you mean, Your Majesty, they let us escape on purpose?"
"There is also Huo Ziheng behind them. He made suggestions and deliberately let us escape. With someone following and monitoring us from a distance, it is not impossible to find out my identity and purpose in a long-term fishing expedition."
Coincidentally, there is also Bai Xiaofeng in the Exiled Land, and his best skills are tracking and collecting intelligence.
