Xu Taiping paraded on horseback in the street, under the gaze of millions of people. He felt so proud that he smiled from ear to ear. From time to time, he would raise his hands to the young wives and older girls on the roadside, which caused a lot of jealousy or eye-rolling.
When the arrows fall from the sky.
I just feel cold all over my body.
Grass!
People from Qiyun Village!
The archery master I met in Shuangyan Mountain!
This arrow is stronger than the last one!
I could avoid it, but the horse and the convoy around him would certainly suffer.
Made.
It's going to be embarrassing.
Unless you show your trump card and use the "copper wall and iron wall" to block it.
But the consequences...
at the same time.
There were also people in the prefect's mansion, the county magistrate's mansion, the magistrate's mansion and several mansions who discovered this arrow early.
But they silently watched the changes.
Judge Xia Xueyi even showed a knowing smile.
Just say it.
How could Qi Yunzhai remain indifferent.
Sure enough, he took action.
This opportunity was well chosen.
Not only can he take revenge by killing Xu Taiping, but he can also intimidate him by doing so.
If I were the head of Qiyun Village, I would do the same thing.
The little brat named Xu, go to hell.
Ha ha.
Brother Zhou, rest in peace under Jiuquan.
I avenged you.
If I hadn't arranged for Xu to go to Shuangyan Mountain to perform a mission, where would we be now?
Think of this.
The smile on Xia Xueyi's face became even stronger.
His eyes were filled with anticipation.
go to hell.
The little bastard named Xu.
In the prefect's mansion.
Jiao Kaicheng has been hesitating whether to take action, his expression is extremely complicated.
The master chuckled softly and said: "Dong Weng, why are you worried? Not only is Xu Taiping admired by Mr. Liu, but he also has a small heavenly sword accompanying him. He must not be an ordinary person. This arrow cannot hurt him."
Jiao Kaicheng sighed softly: "He can escape, but the parade in red will turn into a big chaos. If there are casualties, he will change from the bandit hero praised by everyone to a street rat. From now on..."
The master shook his head: "Dong Weng, this is only good for you."
"You mean..."
"When Xu Taiping is in trouble, you only need to give him a hand to gain his allegiance, which will help you open up the situation. You also know that Xu Taiping is not only close to Liu Sanbian and Mu Yuexin, but also has his own abilities. It’s not bad either. If you use it well, it’s a helpful assistant.”
Jiao Kaicheng thought for a while and nodded slightly.
Then he watched the arrow fall from the sky and shoot straight at Xu Taiping.
arrow.
very long.
Very thick.
The speed was extremely fast, and in a flash of white light, it reached the top of Xu Taiping's head.
And it was silent, like a real light.
Everyone on the street was attracted by this white light. They all raised their heads and exclaimed: "Ah——"
"Danger!"
"There is a hidden weapon!"
"Hide quickly!"
"..."
At this time.
Mu Yuexin in the crowd drew her sword expressionlessly.
The knife was three inches out of its sheath.
There was a cold light flickering on the blade.
In the flash of cold light, a sharp sword energy shot out.
"Whoosh——"
The sharp sword energy emitted a dazzling light.
Go straight to the arrows falling from the sky.
"boom--"
The swords and arrows collided and exploded violently, making a deafening explosion and dissipating at the same time.
Xu Taiping was safe and sound.
He didn't even move on the horse.
The surrounding police officers and the people watching the excitement let out loud cheers after panicking.
"good--"
"pretty!"
"Captain Xu is safe and sound!"
“Evil prevails over good!”
In the judge's house.
Xia Xueyi was instantly furious and struck the case: "Fuck! Damn it! You ruined my good deeds!"
In the prefect's mansion.
Jiao Kaicheng sighed in disappointment: "Xu Taiping is so brave. Faced with such a strong attack, he remained motionless. Not only did he not lose face, but he gained face."
The master was also very disappointed: "I really underestimated Xu Taiping's courage and Mu Yuexin's strength. Mu Yuexin's sword has the style of his father."
Jiao Kaicheng waved his hands irritably: "Only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname. She is known as the Little Heavenly Sword, so her strength must be good."
The master saw Jiao Kaicheng's anxiety and whispered: "Dong Weng, this ending will not harm you, don't be anxious. As for Mu Yuexin, the stronger the better."
"you mean……"
"Kill with a borrowed knife!"
Jiao Kaicheng squinted his eyes and thought for a moment, then shook his head: "Official affairs are settled in officialdom, killing people..."
"Dong Weng, the villain refers to Qiyun Village. Behind Qiyun Village is the Zhang family. The Zhang family is the head of many wealthy families in Yingyin. Xia Xueyi was elected by these wealthy families. Destroying Qiyun Village is equivalent to killing Duan Xia Xueyi's arm can greatly increase your prestige and deterrence."
Jiao Kaicheng nodded thoughtfully.
The master continued: "It's not enough. Dong Weng, you have to get involved and take advantage of the opportunities created by Xu Taiping, including Liugou Camp."
Jiao Kaicheng nodded heavily: "Okay, when Xu Taiping's parade is over, invite him to come to my house."
"Dong Weng, it's not appropriate."
"oh?"
"You are the prefect, a local official of the fifth rank, and he is an ordinary catcher who has not reached the first rank. There is a big gap. Why not make an appointment to meet him, and it will also appear cordial."
"Then treat him to lunch at Xihe Building."
"The villain will arrange it himself."
"Um."
The profession of master is amazing.
Not within the bureaucracy.
They are personal military advisors hired by local officials themselves to help their employers make plans and handle large and small matters.
No fame.
The reputation is not very good either.
However, social status fluctuates up and down, depending on the identity of the employer.
But most of the time, the master is the employer's confidant, and all big and small matters must go through the master's hands first.
Even at certain times, the master represents the employer.
no power.
But no one dares to ignore it.
Xu Taiping was in Jianyang County. If he wanted to buy the position of head catcher, he had to send money to his master first. Only after he had secured the master's position would he have a chance to send the money to the county magistrate.
Want to bypass the master and send money directly to the county magistrate?
I couldn't even see the county magistrate.
Many times, the master also acts as a broker, doing things for the employer that are inconvenient for the employer to do.
It would be inconvenient for a prefect to directly summon an unranked detective.
Because the police officers belong to the judicial system and are directly under the jurisdiction of the magistrates, there are also arrests under the magistrates.
When the prefect summons ordinary police officers, it is equivalent to the head of the city government directly summoning ordinary policemen, bypassing the director and captain. It is feasible but very unseemly.
so.
After discussing some details with Jiao Kaicheng, Master Feng Shibo left the prefect's mansion and went straight to the street where Xu Taiping was.
on the street.
Xu Taiping breathed a sigh of relief and waved towards where Mu Yuexin was.
Then he jumped up on his horse, turned around and raised his hands to the people around him, shouting at the top of his lungs: "There are a group of eggless bastards living in Qiyun Village. They only hide in the corners and shoot cold arrows. They are worse than rats in the gutter." Light.
"I, Xu Taiping, will uproot them sooner or later!
"For no other reason than to vent a bad breath.
"By the way, help everyone get rid of this scourge.
"I, Xu Taiping, do what I say."
After saying that, he handed over his hand again: "Okay, the parade is over here. Everyone, please spread out slowly. Don't crowd. If you bump into each other, you will have to spend money to buy plaster. It's not worth it."
The people first cheered in unison.
Laughed again.
The slight panic and commotion caused by the arrow immediately subsided.
The crowd gradually dispersed.
Xu Taiping picked off the big red flowers, dismounted and walked back to the catching squad.
Colleagues are more indifferent than before.
It even feels like I can't avoid it, just like avoiding the plague god.
obviously.
These agents did not want to be implicated by Xu Taiping.
In other words, they were very sure that Xu Taiping would suffer even more powerful revenge from Qi Yunzhai.
Xu Taiping also knew this.
After killing Tang Huanyun, he had this realization.
This is not playing house.
It is a battle between life and death.
The winner will gain both fame and fortune.
The loser will die without a burial place.
The question is, how to break the situation?
Xu Taiping had no clue.
