But he was horrified to the extreme. This Xi Shusi was obviously no different from what he had seen before, but he knew in his heart that this person was probably a monster.
He put his hands behind his back, and while talking to Xi Shusi, he secretly signaled the archery team behind him to prepare.
Xi Shusi, who was opposite him, sneered. He was very familiar with this person known as the Yin Official. Naturally, he knew what he was going to do, but he didn't care at all. He just smiled lightly and said
"Master Pei, you're welcome. I'm fine now. Fortunately, Master Pei has had a hard night. Please go back and rest early."
But at this moment, ten archers fired a hail of arrows, over Pei Wei's head, and shot directly at Xi Shusi.
The onlookers screamed even more. They didn't understand the real situation. The two high officials they saw were fighting for life and death for some reason, and they ran away one after another.
Xi Shusi's expression remained unchanged, and his body was so flexible that he was no longer the same person as before. He kept rolling backwards and easily dodged the arrows.
At this moment, Pei Wei yelled
"superior!"
The officers and soldiers at the front who were about to board the ship suddenly shouted in unison, rushed onto the deck, and charged towards Xi Shusi.
At this time, Xi Shusi had a strong figure, moving around in the crowd, and with a random palm strike from time to time, he could actually knock an officer and soldier away two feet away.
The clothes on Xi Shusi's body were fluttering. The clothes that were originally soaked were actually evaporated dry by the internal energy seeping out of his body during the battle.
The officers and soldiers brought by Pei Wei were only about thirty, including archers. They could only block Xi Shusi for half a stick of incense. There were not even ten officers and soldiers still standing on the deck.
Xi Shusi said with a smile on her face, obviously coping with it very easily.
"Master Pei, what do you mean? Do you want to assassinate the imperial official?"
Pei Wei listened to his nonsense, saw that the situation was not good, ordered the archers behind him, looked at the fleeing people, and said coldly
"You guys, go and grab some people!"
The archers looked at each other and looked at Pei Wei in disbelief, wondering what he wanted to arrest the people for at this moment.
"Sir, they didn't break the law, and they didn't..."
Before one of the archers could finish speaking, Pei Wei pulled out the sword from his waist and slashed him with his sword!
Pei Wei's face was splattered with blood and he looked very ferocious.
"Disobey military orders and die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at the other archers again.
At this moment, there were a few fewer officers and soldiers behind him, and they were about to be unable to hold on any longer.
The archers were all timid, so they had to obey the order and scatter to catch the people.
Xiao Zhong and others who were watching from a distance were all confused. For some reason, a war suddenly broke out in the distance, and because they were far away, they knew nothing about the real situation.
"What's going on? Why did the fight suddenly start?"
Shopkeeper Li asked.
Shopkeeper Liu said angrily
"Look at those dog officers, they just want to fight on their own, but they actually want to arrest innocent people."
Everyone looked around and saw that the officers and soldiers began to arrest the fleeing people around them.
At this moment, at the Huafang, the people who were running the Huafang were all arrested. They were all weak women, and they were arrested after running a few steps.
Of course, some people who were watching the fun were also captured.
Pei Wei slowly looked at everyone with a bloodthirsty light in his eyes.
"The sage said that on weekdays, the government and the people should cooperate more to catch criminals. Although I usually don't like asking others for help, this time the monster is extraordinary and I still need everyone's help."
Everyone looked at each other in shock, feeling terrified as they looked at Pei Wei.
Then, Pei Wei looked at Liu Qiao'er in the crowd. Liu Qiao'er's face turned pale and she did not dare to look directly into Pei Wei's eyes.
Pei Wei said
"Miss Liu, Mr. Xi is your old friend. You can go up later and distract his attention."
Liu Qiaoer looked at Pei Wei in fear. She had watched Xi Shusi die with her own eyes. The current Xi Shusi in front of her was undoubtedly a monster.
"Sir, who knows... Master Xi still recognizes me."
But Pei Wei just glanced at her, as if he was being targeted by an evil spirit. Liu Qiaoer's expression was even more pale, and she didn't dare to refuse.
Pei Wei looked at everyone again
"Everyone, some of you live by the lake and some live on the boat. You must be familiar with the nature of water. You will quietly get on the boat from the lake later."
As he spoke, he distributed a dozen small black medicine bags to everyone, and continued.
"The remaining men I have are all archers and are not familiar with water. I can only rely on you for this matter. If we board the boat directly, there may not be enough people to kill the monster. When you get on the boat, put this medicine bag in The medicine was secretly scattered around the ship."
"What is this?"
a woman asked.
Pei Wei smiled and patted her shoulder
"Don't worry, this is a special drug made by my Taiyang Mansion. It is very effective. Unfortunately, it can only be used at close range. When you sprinkle this drug around the ship, the monster will not be able to escape."
With that, he handed another packet to Liu Qiaoer and said
"Just in case, you also bring a pack. These medical packs are waterproof, so you don't have to worry about them becoming damp and ineffective."
After hearing this, everyone felt relieved and began to take action.
But at this time, the officers and soldiers on the ship were also massacred by Xi Shusi.
"Master Pei, it's time for your men to get some training. How can they go out and catch Jiangyang's thieves at this level?"
Xi Shusi was covered in blood, clapped his hands and smiled.
Pei Wei arranged everything and said with confidence
"Master Xi, look who I have brought to you."
At this moment, Xi Shusi saw a beautiful figure in front of her, and Liu Qiaoer slowly walked onto the deck.
"Master Xi!"
Liu Qiaoer pretended to be calm and threw herself into Xi Shusi's arms with a smile on her face as usual. Unexpectedly, Xi Shusi's expression changed, she took a step back and said with a smile.
"We just met, so there's no need to be intimate anymore."
Seeing that her plan failed, Liu Qiaoer hatched another one. The tip of her nose suddenly became sour, and two lines of clear tears kept falling down like a kite with its string broken.
"woo woo woo woo……"
Liu Jiaoniang was crying so hard that she looked pitiful, and her eyes were drawn to Xi Shusi from time to time.
"Master Xi, you don't want me anymore so soon, wuwuwu..."
Xi Shusi's face was calm, just watching Liu Qiao'er's performance, but time kept passing by.
At this time, the people had sneaked onto the deck from the outside of the ship. In the darkness, several soaked figures emerged from the distance behind Xi Shusi.
Upon seeing this, Pei Wei showed a bloodthirsty sneer on his face, looked at the archers behind him, and said
"Get ready to change arrows."
Not long after, the people climbed onto the deck and secretly picked up the medicine bags hidden in their arms. But when they took out the medicine bags, they found that the medicine bags were sparkling in the darkness. Light!
Xi Shusi in front was immediately attracted by the light behind him. He turned around and saw the people holding medicine bags. With murderous intent in his eyes, he rushed directly towards the nearest person.
Pei Wei was ecstatic when he saw those lights. In the dark night, he looked like a crazy man.
"Fire the arrow!"
Ten flaming arrows pierced the night sky, like precise locators, locking onto the sparkling lights on the deck!
"boom!"
The rocket accurately hit the medicine packets in the hands of those people. What kind of drug was it? It was clearly black powder!
Suddenly, a series of explosions exploded on the boat like firecrackers.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"
The outrageous series of explosions and the soaring flames that illuminated nearly half of the sky made the people watching the excitement in distant places feel terrified.
And under the light of the soaring fire, a face that made people all over the capital feared turned red.
The master of Taiyang Palace, Pei Wei, is known as the Yin Official.
At this moment, he had a cruel smile on his face, his pupils were illuminated by firelight, and he could vaguely see several humanoid bodies struggling and wailing in the fire.
"vomit!"
Behind them, several archers could not help but feel sick as they looked at the people struggling in the flames. Even they could not bear to see such a miserable scene.
Not long after, the body in the flames gradually stiffened, and was fixed in it like a sculpture. It seemed to be completely dead. The smile on Pei Wei's face became brighter. Then, a violent breaking sound came, probably from the previous explosion. Coupled with the intensity of the fire at this moment, the entire boat was burned into two pieces and slowly sank into the lake.
But just when Pei Wei was happy, a figure jumped out of the fire. He saw the man leaping high in the air, covered in blood, and his clothes were already in tatters, with only a few rags left to cover him. There is a fire that has not been extinguished.
When Pei Wei saw that figure, his expression suddenly changed
"Fire the arrow! We must not let this monster escape from here!"
In an instant, there was another volley of arrows, shooting straight at the figure in the sky.
But that figure seemed to have never seen those arrows. He was unable to defend himself in the air and was hit by three arrows. Then, he fell straight into the lake.
"Plop!"
Seeing the figure falling into the lake, Pei Wei finally let go of his hanging heart, and his iconic gloomy look appeared on his face again.
"Catch that monster and bring it back to the house."
"yes!"
The archers behind him responded and rushed into the lake to salvage Xi Shusi's body.
"drive!"
In the distance, the sound of horse hooves came from far to near. Not long after, a soldier from the government rode his horse to the bank of Changming Lake.
"Sir, the city lord has left the Nine Heavenly Prison."
Pei Wei glanced at the soldier and said lightly
"Has the city lord seen any clues?"
Fu Bing said
"According to the three watchers, the city lord mentioned a kind of flower, Manzhu Shahua."
Pei Wei thought for a moment and said to himself
"Manzhushahua? I think I've heard of it. It should be something only found in the north. It actually appears in the capital. It's a bit interesting."
At this moment, a group of well-equipped Forbidden Army passed by here and stopped when they saw the flames soaring into the sky. The leader looked at Pei Wei standing in the distance and shouted
"Master Pei, what happened?"
Pei Wei turned his head, saw these forbidden troops, his expression changed slightly, he shook his head and said
"Nothing, just catching a monster."
But there were constant thoughts in his heart. These guards ran out of the palace in the middle of the night, and something big must have happened.
The imperial guards all looked strange. They were busy looking for the emperor and empress, but Lord Pei was free to catch monsters.
People on both sides had their own thoughts and hurriedly met each other, and the forbidden troops rode away again.
