Fu Shifeng

Chapter 107
Wei Ying was stunned and speechless, looking at the generous smile of the burly man in front of him, he just couldn't believe it, how could someone still laugh at such a dangerous moment of life and death?
"But now the city is closed by soldiers and horses, and no one is allowed to leave." Zhang Fan's tone became colder.

"This... I have a token from my uncle, maybe I can transfer some of the staff." Wei Ying was a little at a loss. Although he came to report the letter, he really couldn't think of how to get the En Pingan out.

"Hey, what a big deal!" Cheng Sanwu waved his hands indifferently: "If it doesn't work, just kill it."

"Kill, kill, kill! You just know how to kill!" Zhang Fan had completely collapsed this time, he knew better than anyone else that the situation was urgent, and it was hard to tolerate Cheng Sanwu's arbitrary actions: "Let's go to the Jiedu Mansion now, Explain the situation to Yang Taichu!"

"What? Just reveal the identity of the Embroidered Clothes Emissary?" Cheng Sanwu stroked his chin beard: "You just said that Yang Taichu was also suspected of killing Mrs. Liu. Let's go to the Jiedu Mansion now, and you are sure you will not be shot by random arrows." Shot into a sieve?"

"As long as you reveal the identity of the embroidered emissary, Yang Taichu will not dare to do anything." Zhang Fan did not hide it in front of Wei Ying: "Besides, we are different from Mrs. Liu. We are the embroidered emissaries sent by Chang'an to investigate the evil spirits in Yanchi. If necessary, you can reveal your identity. If Yang Taichu dares to kill the Embroidered Emissary, it will be tantamount to conspiracy!"

Cheng Sanwu shook his head and smiled: "What you said, when we are all killed, even if the Ministry of Internal Affairs is willing to pursue the matter to the end, we would have died a long time ago. Is Yang Taichu regarded as treason, and it's none of my business?"

Zhang Fan was taken aback, and Cheng Sanwu went on to say, "And if I were Yang Taichu, I would directly evade the impulsive mistakes of my subordinates. It would be good to find a few people to take the blame for the dead ghosts afterwards. It might even happen, and we would be chased as murderers as soon as we went out." Killing, I didn't even have a chance to go to Yang Taichu to argue and explain."

Zhang Fan immediately calmed down after hearing the words, and had to admit that the current situation is quite troublesome.

Unless the Ministry of Internal Affairs sends another manpower to come to Lingwu City to explain clearly, Yang Taichu may not believe him even if he takes out the Kanhe Fish Talisman that symbolizes his identity.What's more, this Shuofang Jiedu envoy also has ulterior motives, otherwise why would Mrs. Liu secretly investigate the military affairs of Jiezhen?
Just when Zhang Fan was at a loss, there were footsteps outside the house again, he instinctively put his hand on the hilt of his sword, and when he turned his head, he saw Hu Yi and Xu 23 suddenly pushed open the door with hurried expressions.

When the two of them saw Wei Ying in the soap clothes of the yamen servant, they stopped immediately, with vigilant expressions on their faces.

"Don't be nervous, don't be nervous." Cheng Sanwu hastily dissuaded him: "Brothers from the Wei family are here to inform. I think the soldiers and horses in Lingwu City have already been mobilized?"

"Yes, some soldiers and horses are gradually approaching the south of the city." Hu Yi said in a deep voice: "I don't know who spread the rumor in the market that the murderer of the Liu Zhai massacre was hiding in the shop in the south of the city. Came back."

"Hehehe, what a fast speed." Cheng Sanwu didn't feel flustered at all, but instead smiled, and patted Wei Ying's shoulder: "Brother Wei, what clue did the government have that made you think of coming to me?"

Wei Ying quickly said: "Grand En is eight feet long, wearing a ring sword and iron arm armor, it is too conspicuous in the crowd."

Seeing Zhang Fan and others looking at him, Cheng Sanwu looked down at himself, and said with a smile: "It seems that I am not suitable for stealing, even if I cover my face, it is useless."

"So...the person who fought against you in Liu's house back then may have something to do with Jiedushi." Zhang Fan showed a look of despair.

"Look, what did I just say?" Cheng Sanwu was a little complacent, but suddenly joked: "Maybe the one who killed Mrs. Liu was that Yang Jieshuai. Waiting for unlucky ghosts like us to climb over the wall and get in, so that we can be charged with all the crimes."

Zhang Fan's face was gloomy. Although he didn't think that Yang Taichu knew the identity of Mrs. Liu, but the murderer who slaughtered Liu's house let the corpses in the courtyard be ignored. Such actions were indeed like framing.

"Shut up, what should we do now?" Xu 23 urged, "There are quite a few hotels in the south of the city, but the soldiers and horses of the Jiedushi will find us within half an hour."

"Slip." Cheng Sanwuyi shrugged his shoulders: "I won't be able to make sense of it for a while, let's escape from Lingwu City first."

"How to escape?" Xu 23 questioned: "I glanced when I passed by just now. Although the city gate is open, there are refusal horses erected inside and outside. There are more than ten soldiers on both sides, and there are archers on the tower. Can't escape."

"I still say the same thing, get out." Cheng Sanwu scratched his beard and asked one more question: "By the way, it's not the kind of horse that is stuck in the ground, is it?"

"No, it's wooden piles that can be moved side by side. Because the outside world needs to transport food into the city, the city gate cannot be sealed." Xu 23 asked, "What are you going to do?"

Cheng Sanwu smiled and said, "It's fine if you can move...Brother Wei, you just said that you can use tokens to mobilize people?"

Wei Ying took out his token, nodded in a daze, and Cheng Sanwu said: "Then trouble you to gather a group of people, it's best to bring a spear and rifle, and then come to this hotel to search."

"But this..." Wei Ying couldn't figure it out at all. Isn't this a self-inflicted trap?

"Listen to me." Cheng Sanwu said: "When you search later, tell your subordinates to search separately, and then I will seize you as a threat, so as to delay the time."

Zhang Fan was listening clearly, and his eyes flashed: "The government heard the news, and they will definitely mobilize troops to come here, and then we can take advantage of the chaos and leave the city."

"More than ten soldiers, you should be able to deal with them?" Cheng Sanwu asked.

"What about you?" Zhang Fan hurriedly asked.

"Isn't it easy for me alone? It's good to just kill it." Cheng Sanwu still said that.

"Are you crazy?" Zhang Fan said frantically, "The guards in Lingwu City are the soldiers of the frontier town. They have experienced a lot of fighting. They are not those slaves of the Deng family!"

"Bianzhen soldiers? Heh!" Cheng Sanwu sneered, unable to tell whether it was contempt or indifference, and then said: "Don't worry, you haven't seen my skills before. And don't you just want to investigate me? If I don't If you are capable, then you deserve to die here, and you don’t need to investigate any monsters in Yanchi, just go back to Chang’an and report to Eunuch Feng.”

Zhang Fan was speechless, Xu 23 snorted coldly, and Hu Yi said: "You are really not afraid of death."

"You don't want to inquire about it. I was in the Western Regions back then, and I also waded through mountains of corpses and blood. I have never been afraid of such a battle!" Cheng Sanwu was full of complacency, and then said to Wei Ying: "Brother Wei, What we said just now, you will rot in your stomach, which is also good for you. I will use you as a threat later, so that I can clear your suspicion. "

Wei Ying nodded and said yes, he and Cheng Sanwu and others came to Lingwu City together, there is no guarantee that no one will witness it, only by following Cheng Sanwu's method can he and Mr. Hui be protected.

……

The massacre of Liu Zhai's family quickly spread throughout most of Lingwu City.One must know that Lingwu City was governed by Shuofang Jiedushi, even if there was a murder case, at most it was a sergeant who got drunk and beat someone to death by accident.Even the elderly have never heard of a major case that killed dozens of people.

Although I heard that the murderer is still hiding in the city, there is no panic in Lingwu City. There is a powerful Shuofang army guarding the city.
According to Cheng Sanwu's arrangement, Wei Ying went to the vicinity of the South Gate, and with the badge of the inspector's uncle, he transferred four to fifty people, including officers from the inspector's yamen and dozens of soldiers, with swords and long lances. , Strong bow and crossbow, it can be said that everything is available.

"The murderer is eight feet long, and he can be recognized at a glance. When we go down to the inn and hotel, we must gather everyone in the front yard to verify the documents, and we must also carefully inspect the rooms, not even the wells and toilets!" Wei Wei Ying walked fast all the way, shouting orders all the way, with an imposing manner, the passers-by on the road saw this and gave way one after another.

When he came near the inn, Wei Ying took a deep breath and commanded: "Go and investigate separately, you guys, take the long spear and come with me!"

Wei Ying kicked open the courtyard door, not sure if Cheng Sanwu and the others were ready, so he could only warn loudly: "The government has arrested the murderer, everyone is not allowed to leave!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a clanging sound in the inn, and then a solid wooden table flew out of the door. Seeing this, Wei Ying squatted down suddenly. His head was smashed by the hardwood table and he fell on his back.

"It really is here!" Knowing his responsibility, Wei Ying took the lead and rushed into the inn with a newly equipped horizontal knife. Except for messy tables and chairs and broken utensils, there was no one there.

Just when Wei Ying was puzzled, a scream of pain came from behind him. He turned around and saw a burly man walking around behind a group of guards and sergeants at some point. Pieces of blood.Even the armored sergeant was still cut down to the ground, the armor was split open abruptly, leaving huge scars on the back, and the spine was probably cut in two.

Even though he knew that Cheng Sanwu would not show mercy to others, when Wei Ying witnessed him committing a murder with his own eyes, there was still unprecedented fear in his heart.

Wei Ying is a martial arts practitioner. In order to escape the pursuit of the Deng family, he had to kill and injure human lives. He was far more courageous than ordinary people. When he came to Lingzhou, he originally thought about joining the army, relying on his martial arts to fight for a serious family. Industry.

But when he saw Cheng Sanwu killing people like mowing grass, a group of conscript soldiers who followed him just now turned into silent corpses lying in a pool of blood, the shock almost made him faint.

"Shout." Wei Ying was awakened by Cheng Sanwu's low voice, and he reacted and shouted loudly: "The murderer is here! The murderer is here!!"

Tremendous fear and guilt filled his heart, causing Wei Ying to cry bitterly. He was like a person fleeing for his life, shouting "the murderer is here", and rushed out of the inn all the way.

Not long after, there was a sound of intensive footsteps, accompanied by the scraping of armor plates, and dozens of soldiers swarmed over. Wei Ying had just stepped out of the courtyard door when a huge force hit him from behind, directly knocking him to the ground, and then followed He tightened his collar and was lifted again.

"Stop! Stop for me!" Cheng Sanwu mobilized his inner breath and yelled loudly, Wei Ying was close at hand, his ears ached and his chest was throbbing from the yelling.

Seeing the soldiers outside the courtyard forming a semicircle formation, raising knives and cards, setting up long spears, and step archers separated in between, drawing bows and setting arrows, Cheng Sanwu held Wei Ying in front of him and cursed: "Damn it, give it all to me!" Step aside!"

However, the soldiers outside the courtyard had no intention of retreating, and those archers even stretched their bows even more, as if they wanted to shoot Wei Ying together.

"Don't kill me! Inspector Wei is my uncle!" Wei Ying shouted immediately upon seeing this.

"Did you hear that?!" Cheng Sanwu put the horizontal knife on Wei Ying's neck: "If you are sensible, get out of the way for me!"

Several soldiers outside the courtyard looked at each other, maintaining their formation and retreating slowly, Cheng Sanwu also carried Wei Ying forward step by step.

At this time, a large number of people arrived from a distance, and the leader was Inspector Wei. He was riding on horseback, and when he saw Wei Ying being stabbed in the neck by Cheng Sanwu, he raised his finger and shouted: "If you want to commit a murderer, you can catch him without your hands?! "

"Uncle, save me!" Wei Ying shouted upon seeing this.

"Wow! It turned out to be your good nephew." Cheng Sanwu scolded: "Let all your people get out of the way. When I leave Lingwu City, I will naturally give you back a good nephew!"

Inspector Wei's cheeks twitched, he turned his head and gestured quietly to his followers, and then said to Cheng three or five words: "Ignorant madman, my Wei family has been loyal and good for generations, how can I let you continue to do evil for mere son?"

"Tsk." Cheng Sanwu couldn't stop cursing in his heart, and then with a flick of his wrist, Wei Ying screamed out, his cheek was cut, and blood flowed.

"Damn it, you officials, don't you care about the life and death of your nephew for the sake of your own future?" Cheng Sanwu said fiercely, as if he was about to kill him again, he would be destroyed.

"No!" Inspector Wei raised his hand to stop shouting, his expression changed a few times, his eyes wandered, and then he shouted at the soldiers in front: "Back, back quickly!"

The soldiers in the formation retreated slowly, while Cheng Sanwu continued to support Wei Ying and pushed forward step by step.When he crossed an uninhabited alley on the left and right, armored soldiers poured in from the corner, and surrounded Cheng Sanwu faintly.

Inspector Wei is actually not familiar with this distant nephew who has just come to seek refuge, let alone has any feelings for him.In the early years, I separated my family and came to Lingzhou alone, and it took me a long time to achieve the achievements I have today. How could I give up at will for a distant relative with little affection?
At this time, Jiang Fu also came on horseback, saw Cheng Sanwu behind Wei Ying, was burning with hatred, gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Mr. Yang said, I want to take the living!"

Inspector Wei's cheeks twitched. If Yang Taichu hadn't been killed, he would have let the soldiers shoot him to death along with his nephew.

Seeing soldiers holding swords in the alleys on both sides behind Cheng Sanwu raised their heads, Inspector Wei thought to himself, "Good nephew, after this battle, uncle will pick out a good coffin for you!"

Concentrating on his thoughts, Inspector Wei immediately shouted angrily and ordered: "Shoot the arrow!!!"

The moment Cheng Sanwu saw inspector Wei's eyes showing murderous intent, his throat and cheeks twitching, he had already anticipated this man's intentions, and while sighing for Wei Ying in his heart, he deflected the blade slightly and spat out the force of his palm.

Wei Ying threw himself forward involuntarily, as if he had taken the initiative to break free from the restraints, rolled over and over again, and hit the soldier's feet.

At this time, I only heard the bowstring vibrate, and seven or eight arrows shot at Cheng Sanwu, and at the same time he drew back and hurriedly retreated, knives and flowers fluttered in front of him, pushing all the arrows away.

"Catch this thief alive! Capture him alive!" Inspector Wei no longer hesitated, and with a big wave of his hand, three teams of soldiers rushed forward in one fell swoop!
