Chapter 14
With the bright moon hanging high, it was supposed to be a quiet night, but the bandit village hidden deep in the mountains was very lively.
At this time, clusters of fires were lit up everywhere in Xifeng Village, and the places where the lights were shining were like daytime.
Bandits in various courtyards of Xifeng Village came and went, they set out tables one by one, and someone yelled: "Serve the wine! Open the wine cellar first!"
"Is the food in the kitchen ready? The boss is urging for it! There is no one who drinks and does not eat meat, hurry up, hurry up!"
Just when it was noisy, suddenly, there was movement from the meeting hall ahead.
Then, a man of medium build walked over quickly.Wearing a gray-blue robe, he greeted with a smile:
"Okay, everyone, don't be so busy. The second head of the front asked me to spread the word, saying that the brothers in the village have worked hard in the past few days. No matter who it is tonight, everyone will have meat to eat and wine to drink. On duty patrol!"
Everyone was surprised and pleasantly surprised: "Yo, really!"
"The guard who climbed the Dragon Gate..."
The man said: "Oh, let a few brothers take turns guarding it. It is not necessary to guard it so closely all the time. Also, call the two brothers who guard the dungeon, they have worked hard too-oh, remember to let them lock the prison. Good door."
"Hey, I'm so kind, I'll do it now!"
"My word is over, you guys have fun on your own!"
The brothers from each family responded happily, gossiping and laughing in groups of three or four, looking as if they were reluctant to leave.
The middle-aged man glanced at everyone with a smile in his eyes, and said: "The master is waiting for my reply, I will go first."
After that, he immediately shook his hand and left.
The man walked briskly, and after leaving the courtyard, he headed towards the front hall.But on the way, he suddenly turned in one direction, and then flashed into a dark path.
He took off the beard from his face and wiped his face with a wet veil, only then did he reveal a clean and beautiful face.The night was dark, only those eyes were shining brightly.
Looking at the brightly lit cottage not far away, Lou Xiyue sneered, and said to herself: "Right now, gongs and drums are blaring to celebrate the victory, but you don't know that the end is just around the corner."
She changed back into her night clothes neatly, and then used lightness kung fu to avoid the bustling courtyard, and ran to the courtyard that she had stepped on in advance.
*
The big fish and meat prepared by the back kitchen were served in the front hall, and the three masters sat at the same table, exchanging cups and discussing conversations.
"Third brother, can you explain what kind of medicine you are selling in this gourd now?" The head of the family said: "I am very confused. If you explain it clearly to the elder brother, we will be able to deal with it. "
"Yes, third, if you don't give an explanation, what can we say when the prefect surnamed Liu sends someone over?" The second master said:
"Also, since you want to blackmail Xuanping Wang Fuguan with the bride, but if he doesn't care about the bride's life or death, what should I do?"
The third master shook his head pretentiously, and said, "Actually, I don't have to threaten Fu Guan. If the talk goes well, I plan to cooperate with him."
"Cooperation?" The first master and the second master looked at each other, and asked in confusion, "How to cooperate? Can Fu Guan agree?"
The third master smiled and said, "Why does that stinky old man want us to take down the bride of the Ban family, do you know?"
The head of the family: "I don't know anything about this. It's not that the surname Liu has done a lot of evil. He not only embezzled the relief food, but also took advantage of the natural disaster and his relatives to seize good land and aroused the anger of the people."
Er Dangjia said: "Barefoot is not afraid of wearing shoes. The people are not living a good life. If they are provoked, they will naturally seek justice.
"I don't know where they got the news, but when they heard that Fu Guan was going to pass by Pingjiang Mansion, they stopped the wedding party and told all the dirty things old man Liu did.
"No, Fu Guan stayed in Pingjiang Mansion to deal with the magistrate's corruption case."
The boss nodded and said, "Yes, if Fu Guan hadn't been meddling in his own business, Old Man Liu wouldn't be so angry, but he insisted on spending a lot of money to get us to arrest the bride."
The third master shook his head slightly, and said: "You think this is just a game between Fu Guan and old man Liu, then you are wrong."
The other two were puzzled: "What do you mean by that? This is not a dispute between the two of them. Can there be three forces?"
"Old man Liu has been tyrannical in Pingjiang Mansion for many years. Have you ever seen someone successfully sue the Governor for his evil deeds?" San Dangjia nodded his desktop and said:
"No. All the people who tried to report on Old Man Liu were dealt with by him. If so, why would anyone stop Fu Guan's carriage? Because it was not the people who suffered in Pingjiang Mansion, but spies from the capital. "
Da Dangjia and Erdang Furniture were surprised: "Spy from the capital?"
"That's right." The third family said: "The person who reported to Fu Guan on old man Liu came here by the order of Emperor Xuan. Today, Emperor Xuan has a grudge against Fu Guan. He would like to kill Fu's family, so naturally he is not happy to comment. He arrived at Huaijiang mansion safely.
"Emperor Daxuan was afraid of the Fu family, and the court did not give Fu Guan much power. Now that he has gone south, he has allowed Fu Guan to handle the corruption case of the Pingjiang prefect on his own. This is a flaw.
"On the surface, it seems that the emperor values and trusts Fu Guan, but in fact, he uses this to trigger the conflict between Fu Guan and old man Liu, and then borrows the old man's hand to teach Fu Guan a lesson. In other words, it is best to send Fu Guan to the Pingjiang mansion. To kill, to avoid disaster."
Hearing this, the first master and the second master were dumbfounded: "It's a good one to kill with a knife!"
The second master frowned: "Third brother, how do you know so much news?"
Three masters: "Because the capital has my eyeliner."
"Eyeliner..." The head of the family looked solemn: "Third brother, you have tried every means to cooperate with Fu Guan. What exactly do you want to do?"
The third master faced their scrutiny, with a smile on his face:
"I want to make a deal with Fu Guan, and help him to overthrow the Daxuan Dynasty. After he becomes emperor, we... will be the founding generals who have made the achievements of the dragon!"
Maybe the idea can be more ambitious, the person sitting on the dragon chair in the future will be the third head of Xifeng Village today.
The wine bowl was slammed on the table, causing the other two to change color: "Third brother, you!—"
As soon as the words fell, a panicked cry came from outside the conference hall: "It's not good, it's not good! Master, the cottage is flooded, flooded!——"
Immediately, the three heads couldn't care about other things, and the big head slapped the table and stood up: "Why is it so easy to leak? Go and see!"
They looked up and saw a raging fire in the sky not far away.In the distance, brothers from all over the village shouted again and again, and hurriedly put out the fire in a panic.
But at this time, the fire spread to the surroundings, and there was a tendency to approach the meeting hall!
The head of the family clenched his fists: "How could this be, who set the fire?!"
At the same time, on the high wall at the side of the meeting hall, a burning silver dart was aimed at the three cottage masters in the hall.
Lou Xiyue stared at the three of them fiercely, and said in her heart: I'm sorry, I'm afraid your plan of conspiracy will not succeed.
As soon as her breath sank, she concentrated and calmed down, and then exerted force with her palms, and several silver darts rushed straight into the meeting hall with lightning speed!
Just listening to the very light "咻咻" a few times, the fire broke through the window!
The three people in the hall turned their heads in unison, but they didn't expect that the next moment, the silver dart passed by the three masters, and hit the wine jars piled up in a row on one side!
In an instant, the neatly arranged wine jars shattered, and at the same time there was a "crash", and all the mellow wine spilled on the ground.
At the moment when the wine jars shattered one by one, the burning silver dart fell on the wine liquid, and the flames shot up at a high speed!From the continuous spread of the fire, it climbed up the four walls in an instant!
Seeing this, Lou Xiyue on the high wall heaved a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he didn't aim at the wine jar just now, otherwise he would have lost his aim long ago.
She sighed secretly, and looked down at her hands.
After practicing hidden weapons hard for so long, her aim is still not very good. It was still crooked as it was in the past.
The third master shouted sharply: "There is someone outside! Hurry up!" He rushed out immediately, "Big brother and second brother go to put out the fire, I'll catch that man!"
When Lou Xiyue was chased out by the leader of the thieves, she was short and hid in the night.As she ran, she threw out a dark dress.
Looking at it from the perspective of the third master, only a black shadow suddenly jumped into the air.Before he had time to think, he chased after him suddenly: "Where are we going!"
His qinggong is not bad, but he chased him into a small forest in a short time.
The third master made a move.He bent down and grabbed the night clothes from the ground.
At the same time, a stone rolled down from the night clothes.The man threw the night clothes on the ground with his backhand, and said with a frosty face: "Fake, it's a trick!"
*
On the other side, seeing that the plan had succeeded, Lou Xiyue immediately turned around and went in the opposite direction.
While the bandits were drinking so much that the sky was dark, she had already found out the inside and outside of Xifeng Village.
Not only that, she also poured sesame oil and wine everywhere in the village.
Lou Xiyue first disguised herself as a bandit in the village, tricked them into relaxing their guards, and evacuated the personnel at each checkpoint. Then, taking advantage of everyone's unpreparedness, he set fires everywhere, making them unable to take care of themselves.
Only when Xifeng Village was in chaos, could Lou Xiyue take Qingshuang away from the dungeon without anyone noticing.
At this time, Qingshuang, who was locked in the dungeon, did not know what happened outside.
She leaned against the wall worriedly, worried about the safety of her young lady.
"Sister Qingshuang, will the 'Miss Ban' you mentioned really come to rescue us?"
The little girl who spoke was only 14 years old, and her round eyes were full of innocence.
Her expression was terrified and worried, her little face was dirty, and her hair hadn't been taken care of for a long time.
"If the people brought by Miss Ban can't beat Xifeng Village, what should I do?" She asked Qingshuang, pulling at Qingshuang's sleeve.
Qingshuang said with certainty: "No. Our girl is the most intelligent and kind-hearted. She knows that I was arrested, and she will definitely report to the government. Within three days, the government will definitely come."
"But……"
Before the little girl finished speaking, a light suddenly lit up in the dark dungeon, followed by a soft "kuang".
The two were stunned for a moment, then raised their heads to follow the prestige - in the field of vision, a dark figure walked quickly towards the cell where they were.
One long and one short sharp sword slashed down in the air, before Qingshuang even had time to scream, the three iron chains broke!
Lou Xiyue took a sword flower, and neatly put the two swords behind her back.
She raised her leg and kicked open the door: "Qingshuang, let's go."
Qingshuang stared at her blankly, she thought she was hallucinating.
Why did the girl suddenly appear here?
How could the delicate and soft young lady of their family, the well-educated, gentle and reserved lady, be like a soldier from heaven, break into the bandit's lair with a sword, rush into the dungeon to rescue her?
This is impossible!
"Girl, girl?" Qingshuang called softly, "I'm not dreaming, am I?"
Hearing this, Lou Xiyue smiled shortly: "I'm afraid it's impossible to dream. After you wake up, the bandits will come after you. Two fists are hard to beat with four hands. I have no ability to bring you out of the heavy siege." Walk."
The blankness in Qingshuang's eyes turned into surprise: "Girl, it really is you! How did you come here, and this sword..."
Lou Xiyue: "It's a long story, I'll explain it to you when I get back. Time is running out, let's get out of here—"
Suddenly she changed her voice and looked to the other side: "Who is she?"
Her probing eyes glanced at the strange little girl in the prison, and then looked at Qingshuang: "Do you know her?"
The little girl was a little timid: "I..."
Qingshuang said: "I just met her. She was also captured by bandits. Her background is pitiful. Miss, let's take her away together?"
Lou Xiyue had no objection: "Yeah." She led the people out: "Come with me."
The three of them held each other's arms, and trotted all the way out of the village along the path.Lou Xiyue's expression was calm and calm, without any panic.
Qingshuang followed behind her, her heart was so nervous that she was about to jump out.
And the little girl at the back pointed to the distance and said, "Sister Qingshuang, it's on fire over there!"
Naturally, Qingshuang also saw the raging flames rising from the other side, and she wondered in doubt, could it be that the fire in the cottage was also caused by the young lady?
Miss is too bold!
but……
Bravo!
Lou Xiyue didn't notice Qingshuang's admiring gaze cast on her.
She swept her eyes, but saw dark shadows in the woods not far away, and there seemed to be extremely unusual movements.
She stopped: "Wait, don't move."
Qingshuang: "What, what's wrong?"
The little girl was surprised: "Is it because the bandits are chasing you?"
As soon as the voice fell, a cluster of torches suddenly lit up on the path in the forest ahead.
Lou Xiyue became vigilant, and immediately used the two swords - she had Qingshuang and a little girl by her side, her movements were restricted, if the visitor was unkind, she could only fight recklessly.
Lou Xiyue said loudly: "Your Excellency still not showing up?"
After finishing speaking, there was a rustling sound in front, and immediately, a tall and straight man walked over holding a torch.
He knelt down on one knee: "Your subordinate came late to rescue, is Miss still safe?"
Qingshuang breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Zhou Huwei is you! I thought it was a bandit chasing us..."
Lou Xiyue's expression was indifferent, with no superfluous expression on her face, she didn't seem surprised by Zhou Yang's arrival.
She asked, "How did you find it?"
Zhou Yang replied: "Miss is smart, so naturally she wouldn't leave from the main entrance of the cottage in an open manner. And this mountain road is particularly secret and safe. My subordinates speculate that after saving someone, Miss will definitely leave here."
He never mentioned the matter of Lou Xiyue sneaking out, as if he had completely forgotten about it.
