A knife in love

Chapter 1264

Li Qiufeng knew that in order to keep himself in Dongliao County, Wang Xiaoyu not only detained Wei Erbao, but also "invited" several famous carpenters inside and outside Dongliao County to Wangjiazhuang.But Xiao Dong and Qin Laowu only knew that all the carpenters in the city were missing, and they didn't know that it was Wang Xiaoyu who did it.At this time, seeing Zhuang Ding leading a dozen people in from outside the door, the one walking in front was Wei Erbao.Wei Erbao's nose was bruised and his face was swollen, his hair was disheveled, his clothes were in tatters, and he looked extremely embarrassed.Xiao Dong and Qin Lao Wu had always despised Wei Erbao, seeing him in such a state, they were rather gloating in their hearts.

Wang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "I'll give back to you the one surnamed Wei. In addition, I invited these master carpenters to the village as guests. They ate and drank. They have nothing to do right now. Why don't you go back with you?" .”

Li Qiufeng looked at the dozen or so carpenters, although they were not as embarrassed as Wei Erbao, but all of them were frowning, with fear in their eyes, they looked like invited guests, and secretly laughed.

When Xiao Dong heard that these people were carpenters, his heart shuddered, and his face immediately sank.He stared at Wang Xiaoyu and said, "Miss Wang, I never imagined that you would arrest all the carpenters in Dongliao County overnight. Miss has repeatedly made things difficult for us. Why? If you don't make it clear , today Xiao is going to flatten Wangjiazhuang!"

After Xiao Dong finished speaking, he pulled out the long sword with his right hand.Everyone felt a flash of coldness in front of their eyes, first there was a soft "click", followed by a "clank", Xiao Dong had put his sword into its sheath.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering what Xiao Dong wanted to do with his sword drawn.Wang Xiaoyu sneered and said, "Xiao, do you think you can scare us with a trick?"

As soon as Wang Xiaoyu finished speaking, the sandalwood table placed in the middle of the main hall suddenly split in two and fell to the ground with a "bang".

Only then did everyone know that after Xiao Dong drew his sword, he cut the table in half with one sword.It's just that he drew the sword as fast as lightning, and everyone just saw the flash of the sword light, but didn't see clearly how he slashed at the table with the long sword, and Xiao Dong put the sword back into its sheath.The sandalwood table was extremely hard, and Xiao Dong was able to cut it in half with one sword. Not only was his martial arts and swordsmanship superb, but the long sword in his hand must also be a sword that cuts iron like mud.

Seeing how powerful Xiao Dong was, everyone's expressions changed drastically.Wang Xiaoyu was even more frightened, thinking that this bastard surnamed Xiao is so hateful, but his martial arts are really powerful.If the sword just now had cut at my neck instead of the table, I'm afraid I would have been decapitated long ago.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoyu turned pale, and involuntarily took a step closer to Murong Danyan.

Seeing the frightened look on Wang Xiaoyu's face, Xiao Dong knew that this little girl finally knew how powerful she was, so he felt complacent, and said in a deep voice: "Little girl, if you don't tell the truth, your head will be like this table. Hey Hey."

Although Wang Xiaoyu was dissatisfied in his heart, he was also afraid that the long sword in Xiao Dong's hand would cut at him, and he was too frightened to say a word.Wang Sheng stood on the sidelines and watched coldly. Although he didn't know why Wang Xiaoyu arrested so many carpenters to Wangjiazhuang, he guessed that Xiao Dong was also looking for these carpenters.When Xiao Dong showed his martial arts just now, Wang Sheng was also taken aback.Seeing Xiao Dong's fierce eyes, which seemed to be capable of hurting others at any time, Wang Sheng's thoughts changed suddenly, and he came up with an idea.He cupped his hands in a calm manner and said, "Mr. Xiao, I can't blame my eldest lady for this matter. The magistrate of Dongliao County asked our Wangjiazhuang to undertake the construction of the Zhongkui Temple on Motianling. The master of our village is here Go to Liaoyang Mansion and other places to purchase wood, bricks and tiles, and recruit carpenters and carpenters. I will leave it to the eldest lady. I don’t know that Mr. Xiao will also ask carpenters for help, otherwise these masters would have been invited out."

What Wang Sheng said was very sincere, and there was no trace of falsehood at all.Although Xiao Dong still had doubts in his heart, he couldn't find any faults.He had heard about the Dongliao County Yamen asking Wangjiazhuang to build a temple on Motian Ridge, and he had seen with his own eyes the mountains of bricks, stones and wood piled up on the Ridge.Wang Sheng said that Wangjiazhuang wanted to recruit carpenters to build the Zhongkui Temple, and he thought it was not a lie.Thinking of this, Xiao Dong's anger calmed down, and he no longer suspected that Wang Xiaoyu had other plans.He snorted, and said, "It's better to be the housekeeper Wang. Xiao only needs Wei shopkeeper, and the rest of the carpenters, Guizhuang can keep it for himself."

Wei Erbao was imprisoned in the dungeon of Wangjiazhuang for the past two days. His guard Zhuang Ding beat him and scolded him, and did not give him food or drink. After tossing Wei Erbao, one Buddha was born, and two Buddhas ascended to heaven. His days were like years, and he suffered unspeakably.At this time, when I heard that Xiao Dong was going to take me away, I was overjoyed.If it weren't for Wang Xiaoyu, Wang Sheng and others standing beside him, he would have knelt down and kowtowed to Xiao Dong to thank him.

Wang Sheng didn't know why Wang Xiaoyu had arrested so many carpenters and locked them up in Wangjiazhuang. Hearing Xiao Dong's words, he was afraid of revealing his flaws, so he didn't dare to say more. He just nodded and turned to a Zhuang Ding and said : "Leave shopkeeper Wei, and arrange for the rest of the carpenters to be entertained. Don't be contemptuous."

He spoke like this, but his heart was sweating.Because he didn't know which of these carpenters was shopkeeper Wei, and if Zhuang Ding didn't know, Xiao Dong might see his flaws.That Zhuang Ding agreed, stretched out his hand to untie the rope tied around Xiao Dong's arm, and then led the other dozen or so carpenters out.

Xiao Dong saw these carpenters all frowning, and they were led out by Zhuang Ding in a string with ropes, which can be said to be extremely embarrassing.He thought to himself, what did the housekeeper surnamed Wang say to invite these carpenters to help build the temple, but looking at the appearance of these carpenters, he was more frightened than being kidnapped by bandits.Most likely, Wangjiazhuang sent people to forcibly arrest these carpenters and force them to build temples.Not only do they not pay wages, they are afraid that they will not even have enough to eat.

Wang Sheng saw that there was only one person left among the dozen or so people, and naturally it was the shopkeeper Wei.Seeing that shopkeeper Wei was in such a mess, he imagined that he had suffered a lot at the hands of Wang Xiaoyu.He frowned, and said in his mouth: "Carpentry requires saws and chisels. If you are not careful, you will hurt yourself. Shopkeeper Wei is really a real person. He does not hide his secrets in his work. We must not treat him badly if we make it like this. he!"

When Wang Sheng said this, he turned to a Zhuang Ding and said, "Go to the cashier to pay five taels of silver, and then go to Aunt Wu's to get a set of clean clothes, and give them to the shopkeeper Wei to bring back."

That Zhuang Ding agreed and walked out quickly.Wei Erbao never dreamed that he could get five taels of silver, and he was overjoyed. The torment he had suffered in the past two days was instantly forgotten, and he thought to himself, if he could earn five taels of silver every day, he would be able to live again in Wangjiazhuang. I can bear it even if I stay for ten days and half a month!

Xiao Dong had another thought.He thought to himself, Wei Erbao was obviously detained by your Wangjiazhuang, and he is still acting like this in front of us at this time.It seems that these bastards in the village are all cunning and shameless, and we must be more careful when dealing with them.

He didn't know that Wang Sheng's words were not intentional to deceive, because Wang Sheng really didn't know that Wei Erbao, Zhang Shi and others came to visit Wang Yuanwai together, and got into the bad luck of Wu Lao Si, so he was detained in Wang's manor.

Just now when Xiao Dong drew out his sword, Li Qiufeng's heart trembled, fearing that Xiao Dong's sword would be violent and kill someone.Later, seeing that the two sides did not make a move, they were relieved.He just saw Wang Xiaoyu's pale face, apparently frightened by Xiao Dong's martial arts.Li Qiufeng thought to himself, Miss Wang grew up in Wangjiazhuang since she was a child, and she has never met anyone with high martial arts skills.The royal servants, the servants at home, and the people in Zhuangzi treated her very well, which made her even more ignorant of the heights of heaven and earth.If I met Xiao Dong today, it would be good to let her suffer a little bit.In case she messes around all day and doesn't know how to restrain herself, she will cause even greater disasters in the future.

Xiao Dong cupped his hands towards Wang Sheng, and said in his mouth: "Thank you, Steward Wang, for your success, Xiao will leave now."

After he finished speaking, regardless of whether Wang Sheng agreed or not, he turned to Li Qiufeng and said, "Brother Zhu, don't you want to turn around the pier with us?"

Seeing Xiao Dong's angry face, Li Qiufeng knew that Xiao Dong was quite dissatisfied with him.He didn't want to conflict with Xiao Dong, so he replied respectfully: "Of course I will go back with Mr. Xiao."

When Murong Danyan saw that Li Qiufeng was going to leave Wangjiazhuang, he felt a little bit reluctant.He just knew that Li Qiufeng had something important to do and couldn't stay here.She thought to herself, this guy surnamed Xiao is so arrogant, and Brother Li is quite afraid of him.If I want to go to Fusang with Big Brother Li, I have to deal with this surnamed Xiao first.This person is not weak in martial arts, but it is not an easy task to subdue him.
