Fu Shifeng

Chapter 116
"Wait for the rotten..."

When Zhang Fan heard this, he couldn't believe it at first. He couldn't understand why he was treated like this.Immediately, he burst into anger and sternly reprimanded: "Enough! Don't think that with the protection of Shang Zhangjun, you, Cheng Sanwu, are superior to others! Since you left Chang'an, you have acted arbitrarily one after another, and everyone has tolerated it again and again, but you are still so unrestrained. Are we slaves driven at will?!"

"Are you angry?" Cheng Sanwu put the knife back into its sheath, glanced around, Hu Yi and Xu 23 both showed disgust, and then said with a smile: "That's okay, I won't play with you guys anymore, I can do it by myself Find out the truth."

Seeing Cheng Sanwu turn around and leave, Zhang Fan shouted angrily: "I will tell Eunuch Feng truthfully about your words and deeds! If you leave here, no one can protect you!"

Without looking back, Cheng Sanwu waved his hands very smartly, and said loudly: "Save your own lives before we talk about it!"

"You——" Seeing that Cheng Sanwu had no intention of turning around, Zhang Fan scolded immediately: "Get out! Get out as far as you want! The Ministry of Internal Affairs doesn't need you for such a fool! Go see Yang Jieshuai and see if he will spare you!"

Cheng Sanwu's figure melted into the darkness in an instant, and there was no echo.

Zhang Fan was so angry that his eyes turned red and he gasped for breath for a moment. After he realized it, he knew that the situation was difficult to turn around, and the three of them broke with Cheng Sanwu completely.

Looking back at the other two, Hu Yi spread his hands together: "Don't ask me to chase Cheng Sanwu back, I don't want to serve him in a low voice."

Xu 23 had no intention of holding back Cheng Sanwu's departure: "You'd better think about how to explain it to Eunuch Feng and Mr. Shang Zhang. I don't want to be angered by big shots."

"I understand!" Zhang Fan said in a deep voice: "Eunuch Feng said at the beginning that Cheng Sanwu could be allowed to do anything as long as he didn't openly seek rebellion or kill the court officials. But he had a conflict with Shuofang Jiedu, and he had a serious relationship with him." , I was unscrupulous along the way and greatly hindered the Ministry of Internal Affairs, even if I saw Eunuch Feng, I would have a reason to speak."

"This person has no rules in his words and deeds, and he can be sent out to do things?" Pang Guanzhu smiled disdainfully.

"I made Pang Guanzhu laugh." Zhang Fan restrained his excited expression: "Cheng Sanwu is the private member of a certain important person in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. He was ordered to come to investigate the evil spirits in Yanchi. We also did it as an investigation while assisting. But I didn't expect that this time People's willful behavior has reached the extreme, and there is no way to restrain it. It's better to cut off contact early, so as not to cause trouble for the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the future."

Pang Guanzhu twisted his beard and smiled lightly: "That's good too, so as not to get involved in a bunch of unnecessary things."

"Then what do we do now?" Hu Yi asked.

Zhang Fan looked at Pang Guanzhu: "Can you still determine where the Yanchi monster is now?"

"Difficult." Pang Guanzhu shook his head helplessly: "The experience just now made me understand that if I want to find the monster in Yanchi, I have to find another way, and I can't expect the monster to show up on its own initiative."

"Then what should we do with the black goat?" Zhang Fan asked again.

Pang Guanzhu's tone was sharp: "Didn't Cheng Sanwu volunteer? Just let him go! How can I take care of everything by myself?"

Zhang Fan naturally knew that he couldn't be too demanding, and he had nothing to do at the moment, so he could only temporarily turn around and find another countermeasure.

But when they returned to Yanchi City in the early morning of the next day, they were immediately surrounded by the Shuofang army brigade.

"Drop your weapons and surrender!"

Originally, Zhang Fan was still suspicious of the clean and uninhabited streets. After an order, hundreds of soldiers poured out from both sides, and the sound of horseshoes outside the city gate was like thunder, blocking the retreat.

"Drop your weapons and surrender!"

The second warning call was followed by arrows passing over their shoulders. Nearly a hundred crossbowmen set up strong bows and crossbows. Under the cover of knives and rifles, they could shoot Zhang Fan and others at any time. Become a hedgehog.

Zhang Fan immediately unloaded his weapon, and at the same time said loudly: "Don't shoot arrows! I am Zhang Fan, the Embroidered Clothes Emissary of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and I have the fish talisman as proof!"

The army on the opposite side remained unmoved, and the atmosphere was extremely solemn. Zhang Fan could feel a strong killing intent. If he made any changes, it would inevitably lead to disaster.

Fortunately, some soldiers rode away from the rear of the army formation, apparently to announce the news, and after a while, Lord Zhaoyang walked out of the formation.

When Zhang Fan saw the plump man in the brocade robe, he felt a little familiar. He was about to speak when his ears moved slightly when he heard a slight sound of wind breaking behind him. There was a slight pain in the three main points of the middle vest, and the limbs of the body immediately became stiff and unable to move, and the whole person fell from the horse's back.

"What, what's going on?" Zhang Fan had just fallen to the ground, but was immediately held firmly by several wrestlers, and they directly removed the joints of his arms with heavy hand, causing him to grit his teeth and grunt in pain.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse that Xu 23 and Hu Yi were also treated in the same way. They were knocked down to the ground, and there was no room for any resistance.

Zhang Fan knew that this method of sneaking behind the scenes and disarming his arms was exactly the usual method used by the embroidered clothes envoys to catch murderous criminals.

And that plump man in a brocade robe, if Zhang Fan remembered correctly, should be Lord Zhaoyang, one of Gongchenwei's ten taisui.I don't know why he appeared here, is this the person that Eunuch Feng said "clean up the situation"?
"Where's Cheng Sanwu?" Jun Zhaoyang came up to him with a cold tone.Zhang Fan didn't know how to answer for a moment, and immediately the strongman behind him grabbed his hair in a bun and forced his head up, with such force that it almost broke his neck back.

"He...he left alone." Zhang Fan endured the pain, his face turned pale, and he was sweating profusely.

"Feng Dadang ordered you to investigate Cheng Sanwu, yet you let him leave alone?" Mr. Zhaoyang said in a bad tone.

Zhang Fan was terrified in his heart, not only because of a mistake in his errand, but also because he had heard about the abusive methods of this Lord Zhaoyang for a long time.Legend has it that men and women who fall into his hands will suffer great pain before their death.

"It's Cheng Sanwu who... made his own decision!" Zhang Fan quickly argued: "He acted recklessly along the way, and he disliked us being burdensome, so he took the initiative to part ways."

"Don't you have any retention at all?" When Lord Zhaoyang asked this, the wrestler holding Zhang Fan gently twisted his muscles and bones, excruciating pain, like torture.

"Ah—" Zhang Fan let out a low growl, his body twitched in pain, and he said hastily, "It was already dark at that time, he, he walked very fast. We... we couldn't catch up."

"It's really trash!" Mr. Zhaoyang couldn't hide his disappointment. He brought a large number of troops and rushed all the way to Yanchi City, hoping to use the Shuofang Army to wipe out Cheng Sanwu in one fell swoop.

Unexpectedly, he had already slipped away before that, leaving Mr. Zhaoyang in vain, and naturally he had no good looks towards Zhang Fan and others.

"Hearing what you said, I know there must have been many conflicts with him along the way." Jun Zhaoyang took out a towel to wipe off his sweat: "For a reckless man like Cheng Sanwu, can't he even obey the guidance? You Didn't he still bring a woman with him? Anyway, let her go to sleep with Cheng Sanwu, and keep him, so it's convenient to do things. "

Zhang Fan watched Zhaoyang Jun come in front of Xu 23, raised her chin, and said with a little disgust: "This beauty is really ordinary, no wonder Cheng Sanwu is not interested."

Xu 23 didn't refute, but gritted his teeth and turned away slightly, avoiding Mr. Zhaoyang's greasy, sweaty palm.

"Mr. Zhaoyang Rongrong!" Zhang Fan quickly explained: "After we left Chang'an, we have been obeying Cheng Sanwu as much as possible, but this person has no intention of restraining himself, and his behavior has become more and more violent. Before that, he even killed the generals of the Shuofang Army. , It’s no different from conspiracy! Eunuch Feng asked us to investigate Cheng Sanwu, but he didn’t let it go completely.”

Mr. Zhaoyang smiled and said nothing, of course he knew this. On the contrary, he wanted Zhang Fan to take the initiative to reveal that he would try his best to destroy Cheng Sanwu's views in Eunuch Feng's mind in the future.

"Okay, these words, you go tell Feng Dadang." Zhaoyang Jun waved his hand lightly, gesturing to the left and right.

There was only a muffled sound, and Zhang Fan and others' arm joints were reattached, and they were also so painful that their eyes turned white.

"What is Cheng Sanwu doing now?" Mr. Zhaoyang looked at the few people who were mentioned again.

"He wants to find out where the Heiyanggong's lair is alone." Zhang Fan added: "We were attacked by the Heiyanggong's family members last night. If Mr. Zhaoyang doesn't believe it, you can ask the majestic envoy Pang Guanzhu who is with us."

"Black Yang Gong?" Mr. Zhaoyang had never heard of this name, and when he came in front of Pang Guanzhu, this man seemed to faint because of repeated heavy blows just now, his head drooped and he made no sound.

Mr. Zhaoyang was about to signal his subordinates to wake him up, but he vaguely noticed something strange. With a flick of his hand, the stellar energy rolled out with his sleeve, and Pang Guanzhu's head flew away, fell to the ground and turned around several times, very strange .

Looking closely, it was just a wooden puppet head with blurred facial features.Pang Guanzhu's whole body also quickly turned into a piece of wood, because Zhaoyang Jun's strong energy was swept away, and he was immediately fragile and loose, scattered all over the ground, like firewood, only the ocher crane cloak was left in the hands of the wrestlers.

"This, this..." Zhang Fan was astonished, he couldn't figure out why Pang Guanzhu became like this.

"Representation method?" Jun Zhaoyang snorted coldly when he saw this: "It seems that this Pang Guanzhu is not a simple person, did you not notice it?"

Zhang Fan reluctantly shook his head: "We talked with him as usual along the way, nothing unusual."

Lord Zhaoyang frowned, and one of his subordinates asked, "Do you want to close the city gates to prevent pedestrians from coming and going?"

"Don't be stupid." Mr. Zhaoyang pointed to the wood on the ground: "A Taoist who can use the form substitution method, if he wants to leave this place, how can ordinary soldiers stop him?"

Zhang Fan was still in a daze, while Mr. Zhaoyang laughed angrily: "I originally thought that the three of you were just incompetent, but now it seems that you are simply incompetent to the extreme. It's just that Cheng Sanwu can't keep it, but even this Dare to cooperate with Guanzhu Pang without finding out the details of him... You incompetent people still have the face to stay in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, what a waste of food!"

"I, I..." Zhang Fan was insulted so much that he finally realized how big a mistake he had made.

Pang Guanzhu used magic to escape, which shows that he has a ghost in his heart. Could it be that he is the murderer who killed Mrs. Liu's family?All the things I have revealed to Guanzhu Pang before will arouse his guard.

Zhang Fan's heart skipped a beat, could it be that Cheng Sanwu had already seen Guanzhu Pang's strange behavior?Then he left alone, did he have other meanings?
"Send people to rush to Lingwu City, seal up the Xuanwu Temple, carefully interrogate the Taoists in it, and find out Pang Guanzhu's origin as soon as possible." Zhaoyang Jun immediately ordered to the left and right.

Zhang Fan quickly crossed his hands and said, "Mr. Zhaoyang, this Guanzhu Pang is probably the real culprit who killed Mrs. Liu's entire family!"

Hearing this, Mr. Zhaoyang was not surprised at all, but turned his face slowly, a look of contempt flashed in his eyes, as if mocking Zhang Fan's stupidity, and heard him say: "What nonsense are you talking about? Killing Liu Isn't it Cheng Sanwu who is full of madams? The evidence is conclusive, how can you indiscriminately accuse others?"

Hearing these words, Zhang Fan seemed to be struck by a thunderbolt. Now he fully understood that Mr. Zhaoyang didn't come to clean up the situation for them, but he came for Cheng Sanwu!

"Eunuch Feng doesn't take your lives seriously. You guys are all low-class bastards who can be thrown away at will!"

These words were still echoing in his ears, Zhang Fan woke up like a dream, if Cheng Sanwu hadn't left alone on his own initiative, the three of them might be regarded as a party by Lord Zhaoyang.

With Mr. Zhaoyang's method, if he wanted to deal with Cheng Sanwu, he wouldn't make any extra distinctions, and the three of Zhang Fan and Zhang Fan would definitely be silenced together.

In other words, Cheng Sanwu's leaving alone saved Zhang Fan and the others.

Zhang Fan just found it unbelievable, Cheng Sanwu, such an ignorant and reckless man, actually has such extraordinary scheming?

"What are you thinking?" Jun Zhaoyang ordered a few words to his subordinates, and the Shuofang army retreated one after another behind him. Seeing Zhang Fan lost in thought, he said in a compelling tone, "Did you hear what I just said clearly?"

Zhang Fan didn't dare to refute, he just stood there and nodded numbly.Jun Zhaoyang showed a smile: "Don't be nervous, just follow me, just kill Cheng Sanwu, and the three of you will be prosperous and rich in the future... Release the letter and let the people in front always pay attention to Cheng Sanwu's movements!"

……

A blue flying bird hovered in mid-air, making several sharp and clear calls. The scout who was staring at the horseshoe print at the bottom of the hill slowly stood up, took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote two lines.

Just as the scout opened his mouth to dry the ink, the bird above his head responsible for the message sent out several short screams one after another, like a warning.

The scout raised his head, and was shocked to see that an arrow pierced through the sky, and shot the letter owl with precision!

At this time, the ground trembled slightly, and a huge shadow rushed out from the other side of the hillside, and it was approaching in front of me with just a few snaps of the fingers.

Before the scouts could draw out their weapons to deal with it, the red horse was like a mountain crushing the top, its iron hooves fell, crushing its muscles and bones.

Cheng Sanwu reined in the reins, got off the horse, and came to the scout who was still breathing. He was bleeding from all seven orifices, with several sunken horseshoe marks on his body. He twitched slightly due to pain, and his face was full of unwillingness.

"Chasing, chasing, you know how to chase. You really think I don't know, right?" Cheng Sanwu crushed the scout's palm with one foot, and the great pain made him howl strangely, with blood gushing from his mouth and nose.

Even in such a tragic situation, the scout still drew out the short sword with the other hand and stabbed at Cheng Sanwu with all his strength.

Cheng Sanwu didn't even look at it, kicked the dagger flying, then stomped heavily on the scout's chest, crushing the opponent's internal organs, and cursed:
"How much money are you earning in a month, what are you trying to do?!"
