Maung-mei is wrong

Liao Guanshi came out of the firewood room where Duan Zhanmei was locked up, and respectfully bowed to the two guards next to him: "My lords, I have already given Duan the medicine and let him drink some gruel. He has fallen asleep. I wonder if there are other orders?"

The two guards exchanged a look, and one of them said sharply: "No, I will call you again if necessary."

"Okay!" Liao Guanshi smiled brightly, and when he was walking out of the yard, he cupped his hands at the guard at the door, "You guys have worked hard, if you have anything to say, just ask."

The guards looked indifferent, and Liao Guanshi didn't care about his hot face sticking to his cold buttocks. He backed out of the courtyard gate, and didn't straighten up until he entered the shade of the roadside trees and walked forward.

He stayed in his room for about an hour before going out again, looking around while walking.

Those girls and young men all hid in their own rooms and did not dare to come out. Lu Qiqin's courtyard, which was usually bustling at night, was now as deserted as a wilderness cemetery.The halls that were once decorated with lights and festoons are now covered in darkness, only the stone lanterns on the side of the road are still lit, and the faint light makes the empty courtyard even more desolate.

Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, Steward Liao hurried to the door at the side door, claiming that he was in a hurry to go to the pharmacy to get medicine, and asked the groom to bring a horse, and galloped away as soon as he got on it.

However, he didn't know that, not far behind him, two black shadows quickly followed him.Those two people performed lightness kung fu, they ran almost without touching the ground, without making a sound, they were not much slower than that horse.

,

Among the mountains of Kusong Mountain, a hunter's courtyard was brightly lit, and seven or eight people stood outside the fence of the courtyard, guarding the small courtyard like an iron bucket.

There was a man lying under the donkey shed in a corner of the courtyard wall. His whole body was tied up like a caterpillar, motionless. The light from the torch shone on his face. It was Han Ting.

Not far from him, there were two Duyu people dressed as Dayao guarding them. They were well-trained at first glance, standing a foot apart, not talking, and scanning the surroundings with piercing eyes.

Ha Qin's personal guard, Chao Lu, came out of the house, walked up to the two and asked, "How is this man?"

One of them put his hand on his chest and saluted, "I've been sleeping all this time, nothing unusual."

Chao Lu squatted beside Han Ting, looked at his eyes, and saw that he was rolling his eyes, he was indeed in a coma, so he got up, nodded and said: "Look carefully, pay attention to the surrounding movements, and report at any time."

The two saluted together and said respectfully, "Yes!"

After Chaolu gave instructions, he went back to the main room. Another personal guard guarded the door like a Nabal iron tower. Haqin was sitting at the table with his hands on his forehead, resting his mind, when he heard someone enter the room, he looked up. looked over.

"General, everything is fine outside." He saluted Lu.

Haqin nodded slightly: "Yes. Check it from time to time, and you must not be careless. The red boas are insidious and cunning, we must remain vigilant."

"Of order!" Chao Lu replied, a hint of doubt flashed across his face, but he didn't say anything after hesitating.

The candlelight in the room was bright, and Haqin noticed his expression, and said, "What do you think? Let's hear it?"

Hearing this, Nabal shook his head slightly towards Chaolu, and when Chaolu saw him, he lowered his head and said, "It's nothing."

Haqin stared at him: "Do you think I'm blind? Tell me!"

With a bow towards Lu Xin, he bowed his head and said, "This subordinate just can't trust Dayao."

"Why? The golden red sand has already been loaded on a boat and is waiting on the Sunset River. Didn't you go and inspect it yourself? Didn't you say that there is no problem with the cargo?"

"Yes, there is indeed no problem."

"Our people are also arranged?"

"A small team that came over a few days ago is all on board."

Haqin picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip: "What's there to worry about?"

"I think Duan is using us." Chao Lu frowned, "Dayao people are always cunning, I'm afraid he's playing tricks. Now that Jin Hongsha is in his hands, we might as well leave as soon as possible. If we are only taking risks to eradicate red boas, It's not worth it."

"Duan Zhanmei is using us, but I'm also using him." Haqin said slowly, "You know the character of Mr. Lei, no matter how you interrogate him, he will not reveal the whereabouts of the gold-red placer owner. Fortunately, Duan Zhanmei is clever. Secretly sent someone to follow him, and then controlled the mine owner. Kong Tan rejected us many times, and it was clearly a stone in the latrine. Since we cannot cooperate, it is better to sweep away these stumbling blocks!"

"Although Duan Zhanmei is dishonest, he is a businessman and will not ruin his chances of making money. As long as we help him get rid of Kong Tan, he will control the black market in the future, and it will be easy for us to ask for gold and red sand. ——As for the red boa, it’s just an extra head.”

Chao Lu still had concerns: "But didn't he say he would act as soon as possible? Why hasn't there been any movement until now? What should he do if he turns against him?"

"Between? Who did he turn against?" Haqin laughed loudly, "He offended the peacock waiting for the night, and even offended his own leader. If Duan Zhanmei can't get rid of Kong Tan, then he will die! There is only one way now, and he can only go on. Now he is alone and helpless, only we are his only allies!"

"It's because the subordinates didn't think carefully." Chao Lu bowed his head, "Now it seems that the intertwined interests are more reliable than cooperation based on trust."

Haqin nodded: "You finally understand."

"I'm afraid... if the red boa and the peacock can't appear at the same time, wouldn't we have to stay here longer?"

Haqin turned the finger in his hand, thinking: "It depends on Duan Zhanmei's ability. If he is smart, he will naturally lure these two groups of people into the trap at the same time. Besides, he also mentioned that there are still people in Wulingdu City. Another group of people are chasing red boas, if I'm not mistaken, hum..."

At this time, a subordinate's voice came from outside the door: "Report to the general, Duan Zhanmei has sent someone!"

Haqin winked at Chaolu, and Chaolu understood, walked over and opened the door: "Come in."

Liao Guanshi made a trembling bow when he saw Chaolu and Nabaler at the door.He didn't know kung fu, but just now he galloped all the way out of the city and climbed halfway up the mountain, now he was panting from exhaustion, his legs were weak, seeing the majesty of these people, he was even more wary.

Chaolu brought him to Haqin. When Guanshi Liao saw Haqin's gloomy face under the candlelight, he looked like Yan Luo, and he fell to his knees with a "plop" in shock, and said in a trembling voice, "Little one, see you general!"

Seeing the other party's timid look, Haqin felt very contemptuous in his heart: "Who are you? Where's Shi Yu?"

"Reporting to General, the younger one's surname is Liao, and she is the steward of Lu Qiqin." Steward Liao lowered his head and said, "Master...he had some accidents..."

Outside the small courtyard, Zuo Hengqiu and Xiang Yushu had already climbed up the tree, seeing so many people guarding outside, they knew that Ha Qin must be in that room.

"You stare here, I'll go over and have a look." Zuo Hengqiu said to Xiang Yu Shu.

Xiang Yu Shu worried: "They are guarding so tightly, and there are so many torches lit in the yard, it's really hard to hide, it's too dangerous."

"The more this happens, the darker it will be under the lights." Zuo Hengqiu said in a low voice, "I will be careful, but no matter what happens, don't expose yourself and keep following them."

"Brother Zuo, I..."

"Yu Shu, you should be on your own."

Zuo Hengqiu patted him on the shoulder, and nimbly slid down the tree, disappearing into the woods.

Xiang Yushu stared nervously at the small courtyard, and after a while, Zuo Hengqiu caught a weasel from nowhere, successfully attracted the attention of the guards, took advantage of their momentary distraction, and immediately rushed to the courtyard. roof.

It is true that the courtyard is brightly lit, but the backside of the roof ridge does not shine.Zuo Hengqiu took advantage of the cover of the roof ridge to lean down and stick to the roof.

He gently lifted off the roof tiles, put his ear up, and just heard Liao Guanshi finished talking about Duan Zhanmei's situation at the moment.

"In order to negotiate with Shui Paixiu, Kong Tan deliberately spared the master's life. They didn't know the relationship between the younger one and the master, so they asked the younger one to serve the master with the medicine, and the master specially asked the younger one to report to the general." Liao The steward said tremblingly, "It turned out that the one who hunted the red boa in the city recently was the Peacock for Night. I don't know what entanglement there is between the two parties. At this moment, they turned enemies into friends and joined forces to deal with my master. But this is also in the hands of the master. It's convenient." He wiped out both sides!"

Hearing Guanshi Liao's words, Haqin's brows gradually relaxed, and he murmured: "I guessed right, hmph, he still has that bit of womanly kindness in his heart, and insists on protecting them... Anyway, it's true The accident did me a huge favor."

Hearing this, Zuo Hengqiu couldn't help frowning, this "he" doesn't seem to be talking about a peacock waiting for the night, who is he referring to?Is it really that B who has been secretly trying to stop us?

"Tell me, what is Duan Zhanmei's strategy?"

Liao Guanshi hurriedly bowed his head and said: "Master, in order to control Kong Tan, tried his best to find out some secrets about the peacock waiting for the night. Right now, as long as the news of the woman Jin Lan is released, it will be more effective than using Lei Laosan to blackmail him!"

After hearing this, Haqin showed a playful smile on his face: "Why, these two brothers also fell in love with the same woman? All of these Da Yao people are slaves of love!"

,

Lu Qiqin's backyard, an hour ago.

Zhuo Yingxian's room is the one at the farthest side of the row of wing rooms, and within a few steps is the wall of Lu Qiqin, and there is no window at the back of the room. Nie Yunhan held his breath and listened for a while, making sure to guard his room The peacock guards staying overnight in the room only blocked the door of the wing room.

But knowing these things is not enough, he must know the specific distribution of other guards, so that he can hit the target with one hit in a surprise attack.

Fortunately, all the equipment is there, as long as they can get in touch with Dai Yansheng and Wan Lifeng, it will be convenient.

Nie Yunhan stepped on the table and climbed up to the beams of the roof, gently lifted a tile, and blew the whistle outside.

The guards were afraid that they would jump out of the window, so they didn't even let the window open. In order to avoid the shadows reflected on the window paper, Zhuo Yingxian could only squat at the door, listen carefully to the voices to distinguish the actions of these people, and watch out for Nie Yunhan.

Since the whistling of the cuckoo came from the roof, the guards outside looked up and found nothing unusual, so they just regarded it as an ordinary bird call and didn't pay attention.

After a while, Wan Lifeng's partridge whistle responded first, followed by Dai Yansheng's thrush whistle. Nie Yunhan knew what he had heard, and jumped off the table after replying one by one.

Zhuo Yingxian greeted him and asked eagerly, "How?"

"Sister Feng is in Young Master Miao's room with Xiao Er, and Master Dai is in the other room next door, and there are guards at their door." Nie Yunhan said, "There are four people outside our door, and there are two people at Sister Feng's side. There are also two people at the master's place, and it is estimated that there should be two people outside the courtyard."

"Xiao'er is a child, and Brother Xiao Sheng can't move, so they must lower their defenses against Sister Feng." Zhuo Ying thought for a while, "They will definitely not attack the child, so Sister Feng should be the best breakthrough point." .”

While the two were talking, the partridge whistle sounded twice again on the opposite side. After hearing this, Nie Yunhan had a strange expression on his face: "Sister Feng said, Xiao Er has a way, let us wait and cooperate."

Zhuo Yingxian frowned: "What is Xiao Er going to do again, it's so dangerous!"

"What a good seed..." Nie Yunhan sighed.

"Don't think about him." Zhuo Yingxian glared at him.

Nie Yunhan said with a sneer: "Don't worry, just call him Dad, and I won't send him to the army to suffer."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard You Xiao crying from the opposite side.

"Uncle! Uncle!" You Xiao knelt in front of Miao Sheng's bed, crying loudly, "Xiao'er will find a doctor for you, you have to hold on!"

Wan Lifeng slammed on the door loudly, "Open the door quickly! Someone is about to die, call the doctor!"

The two guards guarding the door looked at each other, hesitant.

The head of the family has warned that the red boas are full of tricks, so they will definitely not stay in the room honestly, and will definitely play tricks, so they should be careful.But the second master also said that the red boa and others must not be killed, there is indeed a patient in this room, what should be done in the current situation?

While they were hesitating, the door was slammed and almost smashed, and the child inside was crying more and more heartbreakingly, even the hard-hearted could not help being moved.

What's more, there was Nie Yunhan's voice cursing from the opposite side: "Has your conscience been eaten by dogs? You don't care if the child cries like this? The one lying there is his only relative. Do you have the heart to see him become an orphan? What kind of bastards are these peacocks raising, with no human touch at all? Aren’t you raised by your father and mother?!”

The guard guarding the room irritatedly smashed the door with the handle of a knife: "Shut up! What's the matter with you?!"

"Can't let people talk about the injustice?" Nie Yunhan's voice was arrogant, "The mouth is on my face, and I can say whatever I want. If you have the ability, come in and sew it up for me!"

Zhuo Yingxian sang in a cold voice: "It's fine if you are cold-hearted, and you don't allow others to say something fair? Even the emperor can't be so domineering! Brother Han, these people don't care about other people's life or death at all. , why bother talking nonsense to them."

His voice seemed much weaker than before, and he coughed twice as he spoke.

Nie Yunhan immediately worried: "Ah Xian, you go to bed and lie down, don't mess with us here."

Although Peacock's business is a shady business, he never commits any crimes on weekdays. These guards are also trained according to the military discipline, and they are not the rascals like Shui Pixiu. It's also a feeling that I can't get up or down, it's really aggrieved.

Wan Lifeng over there heard Nie Yunhan cheering, and smashed the door even harder: "Bastard! Open the door quickly! Help is important! There are only a few of us, and we are not your opponents at all. Besides, we are dragging children and patients. Where can we go?" ? Open the door! If you don’t believe me, come in and take a look, the child’s uncle is almost out of breath!”

One of the guards guarding the gate hesitated and said, "Why don't you go in and have a look?"

The other looked around and saw that everyone on his own was looking at this side vigilantly. Because of the large number of people, they were indeed confident, so he said, "Okay."

After finishing speaking, he shouted to the two people guarding Dai Yansheng's room: "Let's go in and have a look, please keep an eye on it."

After receiving a response from his companion, the guard who suggested just now turned around, while the other drew his sword in a posture of defending against the enemy. They nodded at each other, and then opened the door.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the door opened, the two of them only stared at the front for defense, but ignored the bottom, allowing You Xiao to take advantage of the loophole!

This child is like a nimble loach, it passed through the gap between the two of them with a "swish", and fled out the door. A guard was about to chase after him, but saw that You Xiao was rushing towards Dai Yansheng's door, so he stopped pace.

The two guarding the door of Dai Yansheng's house blocked the door tightly, put their hands on You Xiao's shoulder, and shouted sharply: "Go back!"

You Xiao looked at the door, tears streaming down his face: "My uncle is dying! Please let Mr. Dai go and see him! Please! Mr. Dai, Mr. Dai!"

Dai Yansheng's voice came from the door: "His uncle's condition is very bad, and I really can't afford to delay. Just for the sake of this kid, let me go and have a look."

The two guards were also very embarrassed, and looked at the two partners on Wanlifeng's side.

Seeing their hesitation, Wan Lifeng grabbed the arm of the guard in front of him and said anxiously: "If you don't believe me, go and see! See if we are lying to you!"

Seeing that Wan Lifeng didn't have a weapon in his hands, the guard was relieved, walked to the bed and looked down at Miao Sheng's situation, then stretched out his hand to test his breath, and felt worried, he also checked the other's pulse, his expression changed. cold.

He walked outside the door and said to his companions: "Indeed...it seems to have died!"

When You Xiao heard this, he cried out in terror: "No way! My uncle can't die! I beg you to let Mr. Dai go and see him! There must be help!"

Dai Yansheng also said inside the door: "Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, why are you so hard-hearted?!"

You Xiao tugged at the sleeves of the two guards, and said pitifully: "Big brothers, please, please save my uncle's life...I will kneel down for you..."

He knelt down on the ground with a "plop", his little face was wrinkled from crying, his eyes were swollen into walnuts, and anyone who looked at him felt pity.

The two guards moved the door with compassion, and one of them said to Dai Yan with a straight face: "It's okay to go and have a look, don't play tricks!"

You Xiao was still stopped, looking at Dai Yansheng tearfully: "Mr. Dai!"

Dai Yansheng lifted the medicine box by the door: "I only bring a medicine box, not a weapon."

He hurried out the door, as if he was tripped by the threshold because he was too anxious, the two guards instinctively reached out to help him, and suddenly felt like small flying insects flew past his eyes.

Dai Yansheng hurried to Miao Sheng's room, You Xiao followed him closely, the two guards were not at ease, so they naturally followed.

At the door of Miao Sheng's room, the four guards had a discussion, the two followed into the room, and the two stood guard outside. Dai Yansheng and Wan Lifeng did not have any objections, as if they were really focused on Miao Sheng's condition.

After giving Miao Sheng a pulse, Dai Yansheng added a few silver needles to the acupoints where no needles were applied, and comforted You Xiao: "Don't worry, it's fine, it will be fine in a while."

You Xiao snuggled into Wan Lifeng's arms, nodded with tears in his eyes.

Before it stopped here, Nie Yunhan on the opposite side began to toss again.

He just heard the man tear the window paper on the door with a "crash" and shouted: "Master Dai! Mr. Dai! There is something wrong with Ah Xian, he seems to have a fever! Can you come and see him?"

The four guards guarding Nie Yunhan's side all had big heads, and one of them yelled at Nie Yunhan: "What's the trouble! Don't play tricks!"

"Who the hell is arguing with you? My brother was injured yesterday, and you two know about it! It was fine, but it must have become inflamed after being covered in the room for a few hours!" Nie Yunhan was terribly anxious, Grabbing the gate fence and shaking it loudly, "If something happens to my brother, I want you to be buried with him!"

One of the guards standing at the far side pulled the other one over, and said in a low voice: "I heard that this is the two of them, and the one inside was really wounded by a knife. It's really not right to hear the words and movements just now, or..."

When he was speaking, his two thumbs crossed each other, the hint was quite obvious, the other immediately understood what he meant, and said helplessly: "Okay, there are so many of us around, they can't escape this small courtyard."

As soon as the man turned around, he nodded to the other two, and the two unchained the door. One of them said to Nie Yunhan who was behind the gate, "Raise your hand and let me see!"

Nie Yunhan raised his hands and said impatiently: "I didn't take any weapons! If you don't worry, come in!"

A guard opened the door, and the other three all faced him with knives. Nie Yunhan ignored them and walked towards the bed.

These four people were very afraid of Nie Yunhan, and they really followed in because they had guarding brothers outside.

Zhuo Yingxian was lying on the bed, his face was flushed, his eyes were closed tightly, his eyelashes were trembling slightly, and he was very sick.

Nie Yunhan sat beside him worriedly, holding his hand: "It's okay, Brother Han is here, I'll let Master Dai come to see you in a while."

The eyes of the four guards who followed were all focused on Nie Yunhan. No one noticed that on the opposite side of the open door, the two guards outside Miao Sheng's door suddenly rolled their eyes and fell straight down. Then Dai Yansheng and Wan Lifeng Drag them into the room.
