In the upper room of the inn, Zhou Yuansi did not accept the order to evict guests. His ass seemed to be smeared with paste, and he stuck to the chair tightly, refusing to leave.

Pei Yuli stared at him several times, wanting to shovel his ass off with a sapphire branch.

"What did the third brother say to you?" Zhou Yuansi even poured out a cup of tea by himself, ready to pick it up.

Pei Yuli hit the table hard with the handle of a sapphire branch, the wooden table trembled, and the tea poured out from the mouth of the cup, just wet Zhou Yuansi's wide sleeve.

"I said it," Pei Yuli said in a bad tone, "don't call me third brother, you are not worthy."

Zhou Yuansi was stunned for a moment. He waved his sleeves and retracted his hands, saying: "He was also a ten-year-old child back then, and the things in his memory may not be correct. Aren't you curious about the facts?"

"No matter what the facts are, it's not your turn to tell me."

"He has a brotherly relationship with me for ten years, but he only remembers that I tied him to the rock and waited to die," Zhou Yuansi said, "Why, can't I just plead my case?"

"Defense?" Pei Yuli laughed, "What have you been doing for the past 11 years? What have you been doing on the gambling boat a few months ago? Who wants to hear your defense?"

"He was in the Tiankun Gang during those 11 years, how can I find him?"

"What are you looking for him for? Kill him?"

"Why should I kill him?"

"You know it yourself."

The two of them uttered one sentence after another, and each sentence jumped out as if they had taken gunpowder.

Pei Yuli's impatience was all engraved on his face, Zhou Yuansi was in front of him for a moment, and he wanted to pull out the sapphire branch at any time to kill this fellow.

"What if I told you that I tied him up to save him?"

"Go and tell Kou Yi about this, and see if he believes you."

"My mother died of illness. Zhou Yuantao tried every means to kill my third brother. If I didn't make such a bad move, my third brother would have been in trouble long ago. How could there be him now?"

Pei Yuli was slightly taken aback.

Zhou Yuansi said it sincerely, and continued: "I wanted to save my third brother's life, but I didn't expect that he would be rescued by others in advance. This is indeed my mistake. The third brother has been wandering outside for many years, but how could I Think so? I just want to keep him."

Mrs. Zhou died of illness, and Kou Yi, as a young legitimate son, could easily be killed.

It's not just Zhou Yuantao, anyone who covets the Zhou family's fortune may set their minds on Kou Yi.

When Zhou Yuansi said such words, Pei Yuli couldn't tell how much was true and how much was false for a while.

"I came here today to remind you," Zhou Yuansi showed an eager expression on his face, "Zhou Yuantao is not dead, and still wants to attack him. As far as I know, he has hired killers to follow him. You don't have to believe me." , but you don’t want him to have an accident, do you?”

"...He will be fine," Pei Yuli paused for a moment, observed Zhou Yuansi's expression, and said, "You guys underestimated him too much."

Zhou Yuansi breathed a sigh of relief.

"As far as I know," the last trace of impatience on Pei Yuli's face faded, and he no longer wanted to drive away the guests, but asked, "Your biological mother was tied to the edge of the reef and drowned alive. Bar?"

This question hit people's hearts straight, causing Zhou Yuansi's expression to change slightly.

But Pei Yuli didn't care about Zhou Yuansi's mood, and then asked: "You treated Kou Yi in the same way, but told me that you didn't intend to kill someone. How can you prove it?"

Zhou Yuansi's expression stiffened a little, and he said, "He's still alive and well."

"But his rescue was obviously beyond your expectation."

"I was dealing with Zhou Yuantao at that time, and I haven't arrived yet."

"You can explain these things to Kou Yi, why come to tell me?"

"I was looking for him, but he wasn't here."

"Okay." Pei Yuli withdrew his sharp expression, as if dispelling many doubts, bowed his head and said, "I will tell him what you said."

Zhou Yuansi also said: "Thank you."

"However, I happened to be looking for him," Pei Yuli asked while reaching out to touch the teacup in front of Zhou Yuansi, "Do you want to go with me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his fingers trembled, and the teacup was knocked over on the table, and the full cup of tea flowed out in an instant, dripping down from the table.

Pei Yuli put his finger away, and said without expression: "I'm sorry, I wanted to make you a cup of tea."

Zhou Yuansi wiped off the tea stains on his clothes, but the tea stains could not be removed no matter what, he smiled and said, "It's okay."

"Have you heard that someone broke into the Zhou mansion with a big knife today, it's terrible!"

"It's not just about breaking into the mansion. It is said that before entering the door, the large gold plaque of the Zhou family has been chopped in half. I don't know what kind of grudge."

"Ah? How many people?"

"On a!"

"Alone? Why did you break into Zhou's mansion alone? Are robbers so blatant in robbing houses these days? What about the officials? Have you gone?"

"What kind of burglary? I think there is clearly a grudge. The official has not seen it for the time being, and I don't know why the Zhou family didn't report it to the official."

"Then the big door was broken into by a mere man with a knife, and the government got the news right away!"

The discussion among the crowd hadn't ended yet, and there was a burst of shouting from the end of the street.

"Official messengers clear the way! Get out of the way!"

The two teams of yacha lined up through the crowd and strode towards the Zhou mansion.

The common people voluntarily gave way one after another, seeing the officials in blue uniforms striding from one end of the street to the other, but stopped at the same time when they reached a corner.

The common people didn't know what happened, they poked their heads to see, and all their eyes were wide open.

They saw a few figures flying up from nowhere above the heads of the officials, and then fell to the ground with a few bangs and thuds.

one two Three...

bang bang ————

A few more times.

Four, five... eleven, twelve.

A total of 12 people flew into the air on the street, all of them jumped over the heads of the officials, and fell to the ground.

"Huh!"

As soon as the common people exclaimed, they saw six people striding forward in front of the official, each carrying a bloody weapon, like a group of vicious ghosts.

The officials of the two teams were also stunned, and then they said: "Who is it? How dare you commit murder in the street!"

The group of "evil ghosts" on the opposite side restrained their fierceness under the questioning of the officials, and someone shrugged their shoulders and defended: "They are the ones who committed crimes in the street, and we are defending ourselves."

There was no delay in rushing to the Zhou Mansion, and the officials immediately divided into two teams, one team continued to move forward, and the other team stayed in place to deal with emergencies.

The 12 people lying on the ground all lost their ability to move and could not move at all.

The officials looked vigilant, and everyone put their hands on their sabers in a defensive gesture, and said fiercely: "Whether you are self-defense or not, if you hurt someone in the street, you will go to the government office to wait for interrogation!"

"I can't ask for it." The few Lianjiazi on the opposite side put away their weapons and showed an extremely cooperative attitude towards the handling of the officials.

To say that this street is really lively today.

Before the six beaters and the twelve beaten were taken away, there was a sound of horseshoes, and another horse team broke into the crowd.

The cavalry is not uncommon, what is unusual is that all ten horses in the cavalry carry two people on their backs.

One is holding the rope to drive the horse, and the other is in front of the rider, with his head down and his whole body bent and lying on the horse's back.

Ten horses and twenty people all had the same posture, and the people on the horses were all wearing monk clothes. Looking at the monk clothes, many people could recognize that they were all monks from Pujiang Temple.

The common people were stunned, and so were the officials.

"Go down!"

As soon as the horse stood firm, the monks on the horses were half pushed and half fell off the horses. Several monks squatted on the side of the road together and retched.

Bumping all the way, their posture almost knocked out all internal organs.

"You... what's going on with you guys!" The official's voice split in the wind, "What's going on? Where did you come from?!"

"Return to the official, come to the southwest." A tall man in the cavalry smiled and said, "The bald monk who the government has been looking for for many days has delivered it to you, thank you very much!"

The government government has re-investigated the major case thoroughly, and will summon all the previous witnesses back.

The matter of searching for monks is not a secret in the southeast land area. As soon as these words came out, almost everyone present had their estimates.

It seems that there is the latest progress in the case of the Li family.

"All right, all right!" The officer felt caught off guard, clutching his forehead and saying, "Take them all back to the government office!"

Another team of officials finally arrived in front of the gate of Zhou Mansion, and the concierge was picking up the broken plaque.

"I heard someone broke into the mansion?" the leading official asked.

According to the steward's instructions, the porter replied: "It's all family affairs, it's all family affairs, why did you disturb the official?"

The official took a look at the plaque on the ground and asked suspiciously, "Family matters?"

"It is indeed a family matter, otherwise, who would dare to break into our mansion alone? The young master is teaching the ignorant servants, don't worry about it!" The porter was sweating from behind, and greeted calmly, "Master It's hard work, why don't you go to the mansion and drink some water before leaving, the young one will inform the young master."

"No need," the officer said with a wave of his hand, "It's fine, we're leaving."

The gate of the ancestral hall was still tightly closed, and it was extremely quiet inside. Not only was there no voice, there was no sound of walking.

The domestic servants were ordered by the housekeeper not to report to the officials, nor did they dare to gather around the ancestral hall.

In the distance, several rattling sounds melted into the air, and no one in the Zhou Mansion noticed it.

Including Kou Yi in the ancestral hall.

Zhou Yuantao has been sticking to the pillar in the east corner of the ancestral hall, some distance away from Kou Yi.He never dared to shoot the hidden arrow in his sleeve, he didn't even dare to touch it, he was afraid of Kou Yi's sharpness.

But at this time, his thumb had already lightly tapped on the bracket, as long as he pressed it, the arrow would be released, but Kou Yi didn't respond much.

Zhou Yuantao breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced around through the paper.

"Third brother," Zhou Yuantao tentatively said, "If you want to go home, elder brother will immediately announce your identity as the third young master of the Zhou family."

The words on the spirit card were blurred in front of Kou Yi's eyes, and his mind seemed to be covered with a layer of fog.

This symptom was not sudden, but he failed to wake up in the first time, and he also failed to hear Zhou Yuantao's words clearly.

"You and my brother are close relatives, one is prosperous and the other is damaged. Why are you so stubborn with your elder brother?"

When Kou Yi closed his eyes, a sharp pain suddenly shot up in his chest.

It wasn't that he didn't react, but he realized that his head and limbs didn't seem to be able to be used much.

"Third brother?"

Zhou Yuantao's footsteps moved a little towards the gate of the ancestral hall, and he put his hand on the closed door.

There were more than one person lying in the dark outside the door, and the crossbows/arrows in their hands were already stretched.

Sudden!Zhou Yuantao pushed it bang, and the door bounced open with a bang.

At the same time, Kou Yi suddenly pulled back his thoughts, and immediately slashed his palm with a long knife. The pain stimulated every pore of his body, and he groaned in his head, and immediately turned around and took a step closer to Zhou Yuantao.

Zhou Yuantao couldn't dodge in time, and the sleeve arrow flew out, heading straight for Kou Yi's heart.

The latter's consciousness was a little chaotic, and he narrowly dodged, flying to grab the door, and several crossbows/arrows flew from all directions!

Zhou Yuantao backed up again and again in a panic, but Kou Yi raised the saber and swirled around his body, several arrows fell all at once.Before the next wave of attack came, Kou Yi's figure was very fast, and Zhou Yuansi's knees were bent with a slap on the back of his knife, and he fell to the ground on his back.

In the blink of an eye, Kou Yi had already grabbed Zhou Yuantao by the collar with one hand and dragged him up from the ground.

The crossbow/archers in the distance stopped attacking again, the target was too close to the main house for them to attack.

"You actually put poison on the spirit card?" Kou Yi wiped the bloody hand that had been cut by the knife on Zhou Yuansi's face, and a strong smell of blood suddenly diffused between the two of them.

His heartbeat was beating like a drum due to the effect of the poison, and his voice seemed to be muffled by something, his voice was extremely low and hoarse, full of murderous intent, "You are courting death!"

The officials outside the gate were just about to leave, but they heard unusual movements from inside the mansion. They paused in place, then turned around and entered the mansion quickly.
