Zhi Xuan

Seeing Zhi Xuan and the soldiers around him, the assassin knew immediately that something was wrong.

In order to avoid the bee swarm just now, several people didn't even bring their weapons out of the room, even if they did, it was impossible for them to escape.

An assassin gritted his teeth fiercely, anticipating that there must be people watching outside Dingfang, he had an idea, and shouted loudly: "Young Master Xuan, you..."

Before the word "you" came out, Zhi Xuan raised his arm and ordered the soldiers to draw their bows.

Villains always talk too much.

Knowing that the other party has bad intentions, a fool will give them a chance to nag.

Seeing Zhi Xuan's actions, all the assassins stared wide-eyed, and they almost shouted that things should not be like this, Young Master Xuan doesn't talk about martial arts!

It's a pity their anger was of no avail.

"Fire arrows!"

The chief armor shouted in unison, and the sound of string control became one piece.

The black arrows rained down, instantly covering the assassin's location.

The pupils of the ten assassins constricted, they all turned around and wanted to escape back into the house.It's a pity that it's still a step too late.Sharp arrows fell from the sky, piercing through their arms and legs, but skillfully avoided the fatal spot, nailing them to the ground one after another.

The most cunning of the two dragged their companions to block in front of them, avoiding the first wave of arrow rain.

The assassin who was used as a shield opened his eyes wide, turned his head in disbelief, and looked at the person who should have entrusted his back.The next moment blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and amidst anger and hatred, he unwillingly swallowed his last breath.

The sound of breaking wind stopped, and only two people died.They were all used as shields by their accomplices, and they were unlucky enough to deviate from their positions and hit the flying arrows.

The assassin hiding behind them was not much better.

Because of this disrespectful behavior, the two were given special attention by the soldiers.There are at most three or five arrows on other people's bodies, and they have more than two slaps on their bodies, but they all avoid the vital points and will not be killed on the spot.

The assassins all fell to the ground, several soldiers stepped forward to check, dragged the dead ones aside, and dragged the living ones together, ignoring their wailing, removed their jaws, and stomped on the wounds, letting them They can neither speak nor move.

The swarm of bees still blocked the doors and windows, flapping their wings and making a buzzing sound, the soldiers did not dare to approach easily.

Zhi Xuan took out a wooden tube, opened the lid, and a sweet smell wafted out.The bee swarm was attracted, leaving the house one after another and flying towards the carriage.

The two gray wolves became tense and lowered their bodies in a threatening posture.

Zhi Xuan shook the rope twice to comfort them, and put the wooden barrel in a corner of the carriage.When the swarm of bees surrounds them, pick up a special cover and cover them, and none of the bees can fly out.

To eliminate the threat of bee swarms, the soldiers quickly searched the house and found more than 20 long and short knives, copper thorns that could be hidden in the sleeves, and poison that sealed the throat with blood.

In addition, there were several sheets of linen in their luggage, some of which had handwriting on them, which were used to communicate with the nails in the city.

The soldiers took out the things they found one by one and put them on the open space in front of the door. The identities of these people were clear at a glance and there was no way to deny them.However, although these weapons confirmed the identities of several people, they could not prove the forces behind them.

Even in the eyes of most people, it is obvious that they are in Mi's team, as long as they don't admit it, and there is no real evidence, it is impossible to conclude the matter.

The strength of the Mi family is extraordinary, both brothers are Liuqing, and their status in Xiyuan Kingdom is very important.Not to mention bringing down the two, it is not an easy task to get them held accountable for this.

Trying to uproot a big clan after an unsuccessful assassination is undoubtedly a dream.

When nothing was found in the house, Zhi Xuan asked a soldier to lead an assassin, hooked the other's chin, and asked, "Who ordered you?"

"No one ordered!" The assassin was very stubborn and resolutely refused to spit.He is very clear that if Mi Shi is recruited, he will have no way out.Anyway, they are all dead, so they simply stiffened their necks and talked hard to the end.

I asked several assassins in a row, but they were all the same tight-lipped.What's more, some cunning people even bite other clans, all of whom are at odds with the Mi family.

Knowing that there would be no result from asking, Zhi Xuan simply stopped asking.

The assassins thought that they had succeeded, but Young Master Xuan couldn't help them, and a distorted pleasure arose in his heart.

Looking at the expressions of several people, Zhi Xuan was not angry, but took out a jade ring that had been prepared a long time ago from his sleeve, and smashed it to pieces in front of everyone.

The assassins didn't understand what they meant, and the accompanying servant stepped forward and raised his voice, loudly saying: "You are so bold as to steal the jade ring of the clan. Today it was discovered, and it was destroyed in order to cover up the crime. You will be severely punished according to the law!"

What?

What is he talking about?

What did they hear again?

The assassins opened their eyes wide, and the previous pride was frozen on their faces, but the next second they reacted, their expressions became distorted.

"Blood spitting, you spitting blood!"

When did they steal Yuhuan, let alone destroy it!

The waiter opened his eyes and spoke nonsense, but he still had plausible words!

The waiter had received Zhi Xuan's order earlier, ignored the assassin's yelling, stepped forward with both hands in his sleeves, bent down to pick up the broken jade ring, held it with his hands, and said condescendingly to several people: "You are inquiring about the whereabouts of the young master in the city. Many people have witnessed it. I followed the servants of the medicine field a few days ago, and there are also witnesses. You have been to the medicine field at night, and the pollen on your body attracted the swarms. Only the medicine fields near the two cities have this kind of vines. You will not go at night Are you in the deep mountains?"

The waiter's speech was unhurried, recreating the process of several assassins stealing.

"You have been to the medicine field, boldly stole the jade ring, and now you have destroyed it, the evidence is undeniable!"

The assassin cursed loudly, if it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't move his hands and feet, he wished he could rush up and tear the waiter to pieces.

I have seen unreasonable ones, but I have never seen such unreasonable ones!

They are assassins and dead soldiers, not thieves!

Although they are all villains, there is also a chain of contempt among villains.Rather than being branded a thief, they would rather be shot dead with an arrow.

It's a pity that Zhi Xuan won't give them this chance.

"Remove the chin, tie it up and take it home."

Zhixuan gave an order, and the soldiers acted immediately.

The assassins couldn't move their whole bodies, they were bound like zongzi, not to mention resisting, they couldn't even bite their tongues to kill themselves.

Several people were lifted up one after another and thrown into the prepared cart.

The soldiers let go of the encirclement, and the people stopped outside the square saw the faces on the car clearly, and many of them changed their expressions.The officials sent by the Mi family wanted to step forward to inquire, but they were afraid of self-defeating, and they were as anxious as ants on a hot pot.

Zhi Xuan was very kind and didn't let them continue to worry, he nodded to the waiter, who immediately raised his voice and loudly reprimanded these people for their theft.

"Stealing the jade ring?"

"So bold!"

Amidst the discussion among the crowd, Zhixuan summoned the officials of the Mi Clan and made a public statement: Even if these people break the law, he will not violate the previous agreement, the matter of paying tribute will not change, and the names of the Mi Clan brothers will still be on the letter. Mitchell staff will also join the tribute team.

"Young Master is kind and magnanimous!"

Zhi Xuan's performance was unanimously praised.

Not mentioning whether everyone knows the truth will not prevent them from taking the opportunity to win relationships.While flattering Zhixuan, it can also bring out the misery of Mi's subordinates, so why not do it.

In contrast, the complexion of Mi's subordinates was ugly.

To be trusted by Mi Wu and Mi Ji, as the team leader this time, he would naturally not be a fool.Although the Mi brothers strictly kept the secret and did not leak any information, he could also tell that the people in the car were not thieves.

What is the identity, the answer is ready to come out.

But he can't say, absolutely can't lift the cover. Instead, he wants to go along with Zhi Xuan, showing righteous indignation, and scolding and scolding these shameless people loudly together with everyone.

With the word of mouth, the rumors of Mi Shi's subordinate stealing were quickly known to everyone, and both Xincheng and the county were talking about it.

While praising Zhixuan's benevolence and tolerance, everyone despised the shamelessness of the thief, and by the way, they had doubts about Mi's family tradition.How can the family tradition be better if there are such subordinates?

In the course of the rumors, news of the swarm and the wolf also spread like wildfire.

Someone swears that the bee colony is extremely ferocious, and the wild wolf is ferocious and frightening, but they obey the young master's words.

"The son waved his sleeves, and the bees swarmed like arms."

"Young master is a man of heaven's care, what's so strange? Those thieves dare to steal the jade ring, they are really audacious!"

"exactly!"

Everyone's comments reached the ears of Mi's subordinates, he not only could not refute, but also echoed together, he really is a dumb man who suffers from eating Coptis chinensis and cannot tell.

Things didn't end here.

When the assassin brought him back to the county seat, he did not execute the sentence immediately, but poured soup and medicine to treat the wound.

After the wounds were bandaged and it was confirmed that they would not die for a while, Zhixuan accepted the request of the doctor and the village elders, and temporarily handed over several people to them, and hung them up outside the city to show the public according to Zhidi's practice of dealing with thieves.

A wooden pole nearly five meters high was erected, the dead assassins escaped, and all the living ones were hung up, swaying in the autumn wind, like hanging bacon.

Zhi Xuan ordered in advance not to hang all of them, but to keep two or three alive.

The doctor and the village elders faithfully carried out this order. During the process of hanging people, some slaves would climb up the wooden poles to deliver food and water to ensure that they could all breathe.

After hanging for a day and a night, the assassin couldn't stand it anymore. This kind of punishment was harder than the whip. He didn't want to continue to be tortured, and he only wanted to die quickly.

No one paid them any attention.

The son said that if you can't die, you have to live.

Want to die?

It's not that easy!

In order to prevent accidents, the village elders specially arranged for people to watch nearby, stabbing them twice with a long pole every few hours to ensure that they could still breathe.

By the evening of the second day, three assassins couldn't stand it any longer, seeing that they were exhaling too much and taking in less.After several village elders checked, they decided to put them down and wait for them to recover before hanging them.

At the same time as the long pole was lowered, rain clouds piled up in the sky, lightning crawled through the clouds, and muffled thunder sounded, indicating that a heavy rain was coming.

Zhixuan happened to be passing by on his way back to the city from the medicine field. He saw the busy village elders and villagers, and asked his servants to remind them not to approach the pole when there was thunder.

Hearing that it was Gong Zixuan's order, everyone agreed in unison, carried the assassin who had been put down, and quickly walked towards the thatched shed on the side.

Not long after they entered the shed, heavy rain poured down, lightning and thunder fell together, and the sky was filled with white light.

As time passed, the grass shed began to leak, and thunder sounded overhead.

Suddenly, accompanied by a loud click, a dazzling electric light fell from the sky, landed on the heads of several assassins, flowed into the ground along the long pole, and burst into flames instantly.

Everything happened in an instant, and the people in the thatched shed witnessed the whole process, all dumbfounded and unable to say a word for a long time.

"Young master told me to stay away, could it be?"

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, guessing in their hearts, all of them showed shocked expressions.

The only people who witnessed the lightning falling in the mountain depression were soldiers and soldiers. It is inevitable that the description of the situation at that time is not specific enough.

Nowadays, the village elders and villagers were reminded by Zhi Xuan one moment, and saw the lightning fall the next moment, and the shock they received was no small matter.

The three assassins who were brought into the hut were also full of horror.

Shocked by the scene in front of them, the three regained their spirits in an instant, and they were no longer half-dead.Seeing the wooden pole that fell to the ground and the scorched mass on it, all three of them turned pale and regretted in their hearts.

If I had known that Gong Zixuan's supernatural powers were true, I wouldn't have dared to come to Zhidi even if I killed them!

The three turned their heads and could see the fear in each other's eyes.

Everything in front of them made them dare not hold on any longer, their jaws were removed and they couldn't speak, so they could only endure the severe pain and gesture with their arms, hoping to take them to see Zhixuan.

They recruit all, ask what to recruit!

It doesn't matter if you really don't know, as long as you remind them and make sure you speak perfectly.

Before assassinating Zhi Xuan, they did many similar things, and they were quite proficient in their business.As long as Zhixuan needs it, they can automatically and consciously perfect all the details!

The only hope is that young master Xuanda will show mercy and don't let himself be struck to death by lightning.This kind of death is too horrible, no matter how vicious it is, it can't stand it!

In the son's mansion, after hearing the servant's report, Zhi Xuan really didn't know what to say when he saw the village elders and villagers lying on the ground.

Knowing that it was useless to explain, he didn't bother to waste any more words, rewarded them with linen as usual, and ordered the servants to send them out of the house.

Of the ten assassins, only three are left alive.

Zhi Xuan didn't intend to see them, and let the government order take charge of the arrangement, and temporarily imprison them.When the tribute team leaves Zhidi, they will be sent back to the Western Capital, and sent to the Mi family's residence in front of the people of the country.

With the current situation, it is impossible for him to bring down Mi Wu Mi Ji.Even if the assassin is willing to testify, with Mi's strength, he can still turn black and white in the court without any damage.

What's more, Zhi Xuan is really not sure about Xi Yuanhou's attitude.

It's really difficult to judge the behavior of the scumbag, God knows whether he will take the opportunity to attack Mi Shi or whether he wants to drink a pot of himself more.

Rather than betting that the point is uncertain, it is better to find another way to send people back to the Western Capital City, and publicize it in the city so that everyone who should know knows it. It depends on what Mi Clan will do.

Zhi Xuan folded the bamboo slips together, got up and walked to the window, the rain was blowing on his face, carrying the coolness of late autumn.

On the surface, these three people were stealing, but in reality, Marquis Xiyuan and Doctor Qing should know well.

He sent the man back to the Mi family, indicating that he would not take the initiative to pursue it. What would Mi Wu and Mi Ji do?

Leaving the three of them is undoubtedly a handle, and it is a ticking time bomb.When Zhixuan's wings are full, he will become a hot spot at any time.If not, who would be willing to sacrifice their lives for them?

As the master of suffering, the son Xuan never blamed the past, but Mi Shi, who was supposed to protect them, killed them.It must be very interesting that things have really developed to this point.

Zhi Xuan supported the window with both hands, looking at the gray sky, the corners of his mouth curled up, but his eyes gradually turned cold.

He initially wanted to make a fortune in silence, but unfortunately he failed.After he was sealed off, he wanted to concentrate on development and stay in harmony with the Western Capital for the time being, but unfortunately he failed to do so.

Since everyone doesn't talk about Wude, he is really in a hurry, and at worst they will throw the table together.

It's just that before he flipped the table, he still had too few chips on the stage.

Zhi Xuan closed his eyes and let the rain hit his face.

He currently has an opportunity to increase his stack.

The unintentional act at the beginning troubled him very much, but now it can help him.

It's just that this bargaining chip is not simple. Once you get it, it will bring benefits and troubles.He had to think carefully about how to choose.
