The king's subordinates said that today is the deadline for food requisition, and now I can't pay in full, so he wants to cut off my head.I don't want to die, Wu Zonglun, no, brother, please save me..."

Wu Zonglun got up and frowned: "It's not that I don't want to save you, it's just that I'm a commoner with no one in the court and no food in my hands. How can I save you?"

"...Didn't you say that you are acquainted with Dugong Chen, can you ask him for help?"

Wu Zonglun thought to himself: "The teacher can tell that the letter is fake at a glance. Are you still thinking about it?"

"The water in the distance can't quench the thirst of the near, so you have to invite Duke Du to come. Firstly, the king of Jin is powerful now, and secondly, the two sides have a rift. I'm afraid you will die sooner."

Yuan Hong said: "I don't know...I thought...I'm sorry...I hurt you..."

Wu Zonglun said: "By the way, do you and that plum blossom have, cough, friendship?"

Yuan Hong was stunned, and a blush appeared on his pale face: "Friendship? He is my enemy, I, I hate him to the bone, wishing to eat his flesh and sleep his skin."

Wu Zonglun sighed: "Then there is really nothing to do. I thought that between you... Forget it, it's all fate. It's just that I have old and young, and I absolutely can't die with you."

He waved to Zhang Zhiyao outside the cell: "Master Zhang, Yuan Hong and I are not in the same party!"

Zhang Zhiyao nodded: "So what, since Mr. Yuan specially asked you to come here, you will behead him tomorrow."

Wu Zonglun said: "Forget it, if I can help you gather enough military rations, can you spare my life?"

Zhang Zhiyao smiled: "It's a big tone. Didn't you say that there is no one in the court and no food in their hands? Sure enough, Mr. Yuan is right. Tell me, Wu Zonglun, how much treasure you have swallowed Lang Lifei for yourself, and how much money you have? Where is it hidden?"

Wu Zonglun originally wanted to say that Hu Ge and the others had food, but when Zhang Zhiyao said these words with confidence, he knew that asking himself to negotiate and collect food was probably a cover, so he gave Yuan Hong a bitter look: "Treasure?! "

Yuan Hong didn't bow his head, looked directly at him and said, "Lang Lifei is here to rectify the Dharma, senior brother, you will step down and abandon your official position. Although your mentor doesn't pursue it, I have investigated it carefully. Lang Lifei has been dominating the sea for more than ten years Killing and looting, accumulating countless gold and silver treasures, what you handed over to the treasury is really a drop in the bucket."

Wu Zonglun felt cold all over his body: "Lang Lifei is cunning and suspicious. When I sent troops to encircle him, his lair had been emptied out. I have handed over all the ones that could be found."

"Why did you go back to Putian day and night on the day you abandoned your official position? You are from a family background, why would you rather stay here as a coolie? Why would you rather use a plan to cut off your mentor and your mother's thoughts, but also stay in Putian? "

Wu Zonglun gritted his teeth and said: "You know the reason for this. I should ask you: I have already paid for my younger sister's matter with my life, why are you so hard to force me?"

Only then did Yuan Hong turn his head to the side: "This matter has nothing to do with Xin Yi, and it has nothing to do with our grievances. Since you have embezzled the ill-gotten gains that should have been handed over, you should hand them over honestly now, so that Master Zhang won't have to catch you." Your family threatens, and innocent people will be implicated when the time comes."

What he said was so heartbreaking, he was clearly encouraging Zhang Zhiyao to arrest people and threaten him.

Wu Zonglun was really angry at this moment, he grabbed Yuan Hong by the collar: "Yuan Hong, I put down the past grievances and came to save you, why did you do this?!"

Yuan Hong didn't talk to him either, and closed his eyes, as if letting him handle him.

Wu Zonglun had no choice but to hold back his anger, put him down hard, and said to Zhang Zhiyao: "Master Zhang, don't you want the treasure that flies in the waves? I know where the treasure is!"

Yuan Hong was shocked. He knew that this was a false accusation. Yesterday, when Zhang Zhiyao was tortured to extract a confession, he made up the story of Wu Zonglun embezzling the treasure. He thought that Wu Zonglun would be able to protect himself with Chen Kun's protection, but Chen Kun would not be at peace with the King of Jin .It can be regarded as God's will, and you can't be special.It's just... I don't know what Wu Zonglun meant by that? !

Zhang Zhiyao said with a smile: "It's still Wu Er who knows current affairs, let's talk!"

Wu Zonglun said: "Tomorrow, as long as my lord sends Yuan Hong to the execution ground, someone will naturally offer food with both hands."

"How to say?"

"The treasure is now in the hands of our Huda head of Tiger Head Fort, and Yuan Hong is our Hu Da head... Hehe... Good friends, I wonder how much military rations Mr. Zhang still needs?"

"20 million stone."

"It's just a small amount. If you exchange this amount of grain for someone, I think Hu Da will not hesitate."

Yuan Hong had an ominous premonition, and asked in a low voice, "Who are you referring to as Master Hu?"

Wu Zonglun ignored him and continued to bargain with Zhang Zhiyao: "It's just that the whereabouts of Mr. Hu's family is uncertain, and only I can find him. I will go to suppress the bandits after my lord has settled the military rations, and the treasure will naturally be found."

Zhang Zhiyao thought for a while, then smiled and said: "Since you swallowed the treasure privately, why don't you stand on the top of the mountain yourself? The world is in chaos now, and there are many bandits and thieves who want to share a piece of the pie, but why are you willing to be the subordinate of Master Hu?"

Wu Zonglun knew that he had believed him for five points, and sighed: "Don't you know that the big tree attracts the wind? If I am the big boss, wouldn't it be me who is being calculated by others now?"

Zhang Zhiyao laughed: "Actually, I don't pay much attention to the stolen goods of the pirates. But if what you said is true, you can be regarded as a brave and resourceful person. When the army rations are collected, I will tell the truth to Jin His Royal Highness reported this matter, if you are willing to surrender, your achievements in the future will definitely not be inferior to mine. When King Jin ascends to the Great Treasure, can it be better than this little silver to be appointed as the king's worship?"

Wu Zonglun pretended to kneel down in fear: "From now on, we will all rely on the support of adults!"

Zhang Zhiyao was extremely satisfied: "By the way, wouldn't it be easy if you could find that Hu Da's family today?"

Liu Hai wondered while weaving fish baskets. Brother Ang said he used to sell firewood early in the morning, but now he hasn’t come back for lunch. Seeing that the sun was setting, the two children had already had their evening meal, but Brother Ang still didn’t come back.

Yu put the child to sleep and said, "Why hasn't Zong Lun come back?"

Liu Hai knew that she was also worried: "Probably because the sale of firewood was late and I went to the fish store to do business."

The two were silent for a long time.Liu Hai put down the fish basket in his hand: "Mother, the child has already fallen asleep, I will go to the entrance of the village to meet Brother Ang."

Yu Shi nodded: "Go."

When Liu Hai walked near the mountain temple, he suddenly heard a strange movement behind him. Just as he was about to turn around, he felt his eyes darkened and someone covered his mouth and nose.

"Uh huh..."

He struggled with all his strength, but he couldn't break free. In desperation, he bit the palm hard.

"Ouch! It hurts!" The masked man in black yelled, let go of his hand, and Liu Hai hurriedly ran away. He has been chopping firewood all year round, and his skills are also very flexible. He picked up a dead branch on the ground and pointed it at the person behind him. Crackling for a while.

Although the masked man has martial arts, he didn't dare to fight back, he just said: "Hey! Stop! Otherwise, I will fight back! Hey, my martial arts are very high... Oops! I was afraid that I might accidentally kill you Beat to death... Hey, hey! As soon as I make a move, you will... die... Hey, hey! Hey, hey! I'm really angry!"

Liu Hai was panting from the beating, he had already exerted all his strength, the masked man on the opposite side was still standing still despite being embarrassed.

He ran away if he couldn't beat him, but before Liu Hai could run away, the masked man grabbed his arm, "Why did you forget that I know acupuncture points!"

Seeing that he had restrained Liu Hai, the man pulled off the mask: "Brother Hai, I'm sorry! It's me!"

Liu Hai was surprised at first, then angry: "Hu Ge? What do you want?! Let me go!"

Hu Ge clasped his hands together: "I'm sorry, I have to wrong you for a while, but Wu Er can't turn his head around now, I want to ask you to help persuade him."

Liu Hai said angrily: "Why are you tying me up? Let go! What are you persuading? Brother Wu will not be a pirate with you!"

Hu Ge then tied the rope and said: "He told you already? Yes, join our Tiger Head Fort, and the days of great wealth and wealth will come later! Whether it's women or money, you can have everything!"

Liu Hai said angrily: "Bah! He doesn't care about these things!"

Hu Ge smiled: "Brother Hai, you are just a woodcutter, and your vision is too narrow. A man who does big things really cares about power and money. Your brother is a talent. Don't hold him back, wait for him to do something. After a career, you and your mother can follow suit, right?"

He quickly tied the rope, apologized again, and flew up with his bangs in his arms.

About half an hour later, the two stopped outside a manor. Hu Ge knocked on the signal, and two masked men came over and took Liu Hai over and placed them in a clean room. Not long after, Yu and the two children also were arrested separately.

After hearing what happened, Liu Hai was startled and annoyed, and sighed, "What should I do about this? Tell Zong Lun that you can't be a pirate even if you die!"

Liu Hai also thinks this way, if he is alone, he will die at worst, but seeing his mother and child also being arrested, he really has nothing to do.

The two of them hugged the child, and they were so worried that they didn't sleep all night. Early the next morning, when it was daylight, they heard the sound of fighting outside, and the sound of knocking on the door and shouting.

After a while, there was a smell of burning. Liu Hai looked through the window and saw that the surrounding big houses were burning.

But Wu Zonglun saw Zhang Zhiyao's urgent look, and said: "My lord, I know that the master has a place to stay in Wanhualou. My lord can try to send troops to arrest him at night."

Zhang Zhiyao nodded: "Okay, you take the lead, and half of the credit is yours."

When it was dark, a group of cavalry was ordered, and they came towards Wanhualou aggressively.

Everyone rushed into the courtyard, searched inside and out, Zhang Zhiyao arrested all the people in Wanhualou,
