Chapter 471 Murder

Cats have cat ways, dogs have dog ways, that is, chickens don’t pee, each has its own way.

The robber who kidnapped Liu Jia Erlang did not use his own banner, but involved Fengzuishan. This kind of behavior is the most taboo.

It can be seen from this that the people who dare to do this are either Qianglong with a bigger background than Fengzuishan, or newcomers who don't understand farts, and the latter is much more than the former.

"Master, it's been found out, it was done by a group of bad gamblers."

The black and white forces of the Wu family began to investigate the matter with all their strength, and within a day they were found.

In the elegant room of Meimeixuan, Wu Xiaoming was holding a cup of tea, gently brushed the tea leaves with the tea lid, and said calmly: "What's going on?"

"There was a gambler named Lai Pisan who worked as a helper in Liu's family for a few days. When he was playing money, he would flaunt the wealth of Liu's family with others. Gamblers, they all gambled and lost nine times out of ten. Most of them went bankrupt. After hearing this, the rotten gambler asked Lai Pisan a few more words, and regarded the Liu family as a fat sheep." The person who reported was the boss of the casino, and he described the situation clearly, as if he had seen it with his own eyes. .

Wu Xiaoming nodded slightly. The Liu family belonged to the nouveau riche, and their mentality had not changed yet. There were not even a few maids serving them, let alone the servants of the nursing home.

A lot of money, few people, and no guards. This is not what a fat sheep is.

If it weren't for the good relationship between the two families, Master Wu couldn't help but send a few people to Liu's house.

There is no need for more, as long as ten bandits with simple knives go down the mountain, the Liu family can be leveled overnight, and the money saved by hard work in the past few years will be used as a wedding dress for someone.

In today's world, there are too many things like this kind of sudden wealth and being wiped out overnight.

Normal people's homes, like a few wealthy households in the town, always bring a nursing home when they go out.The Liu family suffered such a catastrophe, half of it was attributed to heaven, and half of it belonged to themselves. Without the thought of these rotten gamblers, there would be others.

"Let's get all the men and horses together, let's take a trip."

"Yes, sir."

"Brothers are good, it's not enough, the fifth leader, 666"

At night, in a desolate ruined temple, bursts of laughter came.

The moon was dark and the wind was high, and no one in the ruined temple who was drinking and boxing could have guessed that dozens of horses were galloping towards them in the distance.

It is true that Fengzui Mountain is a den of bandits, but unlike ordinary bandits, they are more like thieves with a strong base.

It is this kind of stronghold that comes and goes like the wind and has strong soldiers and horses, so that it can be firmly rooted on Fengzui Mountain and stand firm for decades.

"Young master, this is here." Near the ruined temple, there were bandits who were watching, and rushed out of the forest.

Wu Xiaoming sat on the tall horse, glanced at the lights in the ruined temple, and said without looking back: "Get off the horse and rush in. Anyone who resists will be killed."

A few hundred meters away from the ruined temple, the bandits got off their horses one after another, grabbing their waist knives in their hands.

Fengzuishan is an old village, and the old village represents these people, each of them is an expert, and there is a set of rules in the village on what to do in any situation.

Seven or eight bandits walked in front, ten people followed behind, and the rest formed an encirclement circle.

Almost at the moment when the ruined temple was surrounded, the bandits at the head kicked open the gate, and a dozen people rushed forward.

"who?"

"Copy guys, we... ah!"

After kicking open the door, there were only a few breaths before and after, and there were a few screams from inside.

Under the protection of the two little bosses, Wu Xiaoming got off his horse and walked towards the ruined temple.

When we got to the inside of the pomian, we saw three corpses lying on the ground, and two dumbfounded gamblers were obediently kneeling on the ground.

Looking inside, the place where the god statue was placed in the ruined temple, the god statue has disappeared, and a scholar in Tsing Yi was lying there with his mouth gagged, yelling something.

"Don't be afraid, brother-in-law, brother-in-law, I'm here to save you." The bandit with a knife moved out of the way, and Wu Xiaoming walked in with a smile on his face.

Seeing Wu Xiaoming, Erlang Liu Jia heaved a sigh of relief, and finally stopped barking.

He was terribly frightened just now, he saw more than a dozen murderers rushing in after kicking open the door, hacking the kidnapper to the ground with a few knives, the ruthlessness of the attack was not ordinary.

Erlang thought he was going to die, but fortunately, it was a turn of events. The moment he saw Wu Xiaoming, he knew that his life was saved.

"Second Uncle, they didn't bully you, did they?" Wu Xiaoming stepped up and untied Liu Nan's rope.

There are four boys and three girls in the Liu family. The names of the four sons are very interesting, namely Zhi, Nan, Xing and Yi.

Erlang's name is Liu Nan, and he is the number one student of the old Liu family, and he is more valued than Dalang who runs a teahouse.

"They didn't bully me, they just didn't give me food. I haven't eaten all day and night." Liu Nan tore off the rag from his mouth, seeing Wu Xiaoming was like seeing the backbone, and burst into tears.

Wu Xiaoming waved his hand, motioned to bring the kidnapper's wine and meat to Erlang, and asked, "There are two people left, what do you plan to do?"

Liu Nan's eyes flickered, he looked at the two kidnappers, then at the corpse on the ground, and said in a low voice, "To tell you the truth, I'm a scholar, and I'm going to test for success in the future. not good."

It's not good to spread the word, so what should I do, kill people to silence it.

Wu Xiaoming looked at Liu Nan with deep meaning, and sure enough, those who move their mouths can kill more people than those who use knives, this Liu Jia Erlang is a man to be made.

As long as the five kidnappers died and no one reported the matter to the authorities, it would be over in a while, and the scandal of being kidnapped would never be mentioned.

"They want to kill people to silence them, we will fight them!" The two kidnappers who were kneeling on the ground were unwilling to stand still.

The one who opened the mouth slammed forward, trying to grab the guard's waist knife.

In the next second, there was a flash of the knife, and the leading brother fell to the ground, with half of his neck cut off.

The other one was smarter and didn't want to fight desperately, so he ran directly to the window of the ruined temple, and actually wanted to escape by jumping out of the window.

"whoosh"

The idea is good, but unfortunately, no matter how good the idea is, it is just a thought.

Hearing only a "whoosh", a feathered arrow shot out, directly hitting the back of the man.

Yu Jian rushed forward with his body, the arrow pierced through his chest, and nailed the man directly to the wall, only one step away from the window.

"Hehe." With a chuckle, Wu Xiaoming withdrew his right hand, holding a small crossbow in his hand.

He has never killed anyone, of course it is a lie, dogs travel thousands of miles to eat shit, wolves travel thousands of miles to eat meat, how can you become the young head of Fengzui Mountain if you don't kill people.

When facing Yinniang, he must deny it outright, which is something that needn't be thought about.

This is not a deception, but a white lie. I believe that such a smart person as Liu Jia Erlang will not talk too much after going out.

"Second Uncle, I have entrusted my father to go to Liu's house to give the bride price to Yinniang. From now on, we will be a family." After the murder, Wu Xiaoming still smiled, and Liu Nan nodded repeatedly.

"One family has always been one family." Liu Nanneng was admitted as a scholar, and he was not a fool who studied hard, so he knew what to say.

Wu Xiaoming nodded slightly, put the crossbow back into his sleeve, and said: "Second Uncle, let's go home now, don't make Yinniang and the others wait in a hurry."

After saying this, Wu Xiaoming and Erlang went out, and neither of them took a second look at the corpse on the ground.

When they came outside, the two got on their horses, and within a short while, they saw the flames rising into the sky. It is estimated that nothing will be left after one night.

Followed by several guards, the two rode on horseback, talking and laughing along the way.

When he was almost approaching Huaishu Village, Liu Nan's smile faded away, and he said sadly: "Ah, with my knowledge, I'm at the end of the exam for a scholar. If you want to win the exam, it depends on the examiner's mind. Lu Tong judge in the state government is It would be great if you can be a student of the grand master in the imperial court."

Lu Tongpan is from the fifth-rank official rank, which is worse than the fifth-rank prefect, but he is also an alternate member of the prefect.

The Wu family's backer in the state capital is this Lu Tongpan. It is rumored that Lu Tongpan is going to be promoted, and he is likely to take over the position of magistrate in the next year.

"Second Uncle, you are a caring person!" Wu Xiaoming knew that Liu Nan meant to use a ladder to climb up when he said this, so he probably had already inquired about the relationship between the Wu family and Lu Tongjuan before returning.

After all, the current Liu Nan is a scholar, and this level is not enough to enter Lu Tongpan's vision.

If there is no one to recommend, I am afraid that Liu Nan just wants to give gifts, but he will not be allowed to enter the court. It can also be seen from this that Liu Nan is really not sure of winning the election.

Thinking of this, Wu Xiaoming collected his thoughts and said: "If it's just to raise people, even if you spend money to fill a vacant official, you can go to the lower county to be a county magistrate at most, and it will be difficult to climb up. The family does not talk about two As the saying goes, if you want to rely on Shang Lu Tong to judge, I am afraid that the drunkard's intention is not in drinking, and one person will not be satisfied, right?"

If you follow the path of Lu Tongpan, you will be a filial piety, and at most it will be a juren.

Liu Nan looked shrewd, I am afraid that Lu Tong's sentence is not the end, the person he really wants to rely on should be the one in the court.

To be honest, Wu Xiaoming is not very optimistic about this road.

The Liu family's foundation is weak, and they are not from a famous family. It is hard to say whether they can get Juren after spending tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Moreover, at the level of Jinshi, it is not just spending money to manage it, but it can really be managed.

If you really spend money, there is no risk at all. Wouldn't every household in Jiangnan salt merchants and Shaanxi miners be awarded Jinshi?

"Whether it's going to happen or not, at least I have a thought. I met those people this time, and I can see it all. It's the same thing in my life. If I don't work hard, I'm really not reconciled! "Liu Nan's tone was filled with strong unwillingness, and he was not a person who likes to be happy.

Wu Xiaoming didn't agree directly, but just said something vaguely, and asked him after he went back.

After all, Liu Nan's true level is more than a scholar, but dissatisfied.

He wanted to climb up, so he could only sharpen his head to bribe the examiner, and gave it to someone to make a knife.

Today's people are so stupid that people can pay off their debts with money even if they kill someone, but this matter of cheating in the exam is still not discussed.

Although the crime is not as good as his family members, Erlang of the Liu family, as Yinniang's brother, must blame him if he really wants to get to this point.
