People are in Zhenguan, solving crimes scientifically

Chapter 227 revealed! The final trump card! The moment the drama comes to an end!
Inn.

Fires soared into the sky, and each room was ablaze with fire. From a distance, it looked like a fire dragon entrenched in the inn. The red fire light actually turned the night sky red.

The door of the inn is now suffering a pain it has never experienced before. The members of the Four Elephants in the inn are desperately hitting the door with their bodies. Even if the door is nailed shut with wood, they are still hit again and again. It began to twist and crack gradually, and it seemed that the door was either about to be knocked open, or it might be smashed directly.

The desire to survive made the members of the Four Elephants unleash more powerful potential than usual.

The Du Family Nursing Home outside the gate was also on standby at this moment.

A large knife has been lifted up, and the tip of the knife is pointed directly at the door. Once the door is knocked open or broken, their blade will be pierced into the door immediately, and a second door will be built with the blade.

At the same time, behind them, the archers had already placed their arrows on the bowstrings, waiting for orders to fully draw their bows.

A chilling atmosphere spread on the street in front of the inn.

There were shouts inside the inn, but silence outside the inn. Just a door seemed to make the inside and outside of the inn become two worlds.

At this time, behind the Du family's archers, there was a horse shaking its head and sneezing, and on top of the horse sat a young man wearing a fancy dress.

"But now the gate is about to be smashed, and it can no longer play the role of blocking the enemy. I can only let it play its final value and delay it for a short period of time. But the gate cannot withstand the fire, so I can only delay it for a while. It’s just a matter of time... Once the gate is completely burned down, they will definitely rush out at all costs, and it will not be easy to stop them at that time."

"Where did the killing roar come from?"

Panic sounds rang out in the inn, and anyone who heard the anxious tone could feel the despair of the other person.

When the burly man heard this, he suddenly showed a look of surprise. He quickly bowed to Du Cheng to thank Du Cheng.

But at this moment——

"What should we do? How can we collide with this?"

The burly man looked up blankly.

He looked at Du Cheng and said with great joy: "Young Master will take command tonight and annihilate hundreds of thieves at the minimum cost. Once this matter is spread, the Young Master's name will be famous all over the world! Maybe the Young Master does not need to start as a soldier. By being valued by the military, you can directly step into the ranks of military generals, fulfill the family head’s wish, and open up a path for military generals for the Du family!”

Hearing Du Cheng's words, the man's eyes suddenly lit up. He looked at Du Cheng with admiration and said, "The Third Young Master is unparalleled in his methods, and I am admired by my subordinates."

When Du Cheng heard the man's words, he raised his chin slightly, as if he felt a little benefited. He said, "Go ahead, hurry up. If they break the door, it will be too late."

After all, the door was about to be knocked open, and he was about to escape from the fire.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, the only channel of hope in front of them has turned into a sea of ​​fire, and hope has turned into despair, which is enough to make most people collapse.

The door was hit and trembled even more.

The burly man carrying an ax on his shoulders sneered when he saw this scene. He quickly returned to Du Cheng and said: "Sir, they have given up knocking on the door. My subordinates heard their shouts and were full of despair. I'm afraid now They’re about to give up themselves.”

"Kill!"

At this time, I saw that the door that had been trembling just now suddenly became quiet at this moment.

A burly man holding an ax came to the horse and bowed: "The door of the inn can't hold on for long, it will be broken down."

Seeing this scene, Du Cheng's calm expression couldn't help but change. He quickly judged the situation and said, "The enemy has reinforcements!"

"Fire...the door is also on fire."

Hearing this, Du Cheng looked at the door that was swallowed up by the fire with his sharp eyes. His fair face was flushed red by the firelight. He said slowly: "If everything goes well, this fire will at least make them lose more than a hundred people. Coupled with the previous sneak attack and fierce fire, even if some of them can rush out next, the number will definitely not be too many..."

There were exclamations from behind the door.

In the silence of the night, these killing roars were like thunder on the ground, reaching everyone's ears very clearly.

Moreover, the flames centered on the door and quickly spread to the door frames and windows. The entire three-story attic of the inn also began to become a new target of the flames. The last place in the inn that was not in flames also began to burn.

The man is in his twenties, with sword-shaped eyebrows and starry eyes, and a handsome appearance. His eyes are sharp and very energetic. He carries a long gun on his back, with a red ribbon tied to the tip of the gun. The whole person looks like this gun. , sharp-edged and extraordinary.

The already fragile door was even more fragile now that it was burned by the fire, and it was about to collapse at any time.

Du Cheng looked at the trembling door, his fingertips slowly caressing the reins. After pondering for a while, he said: "Prepare kerosene, pour it on the door, and then set it on fire... Don't they like it?" Do you want to hit it? I want to see if they dare to hit a door that is burning with fire!"

"The door was about to be knocked open, but it caught fire. What should I do?"

"Yes!" The man didn't dare to delay. He quickly picked up the ax and ordered the others to pour kerosene on the door.

The flame of the torch came into contact with the kerosene, and in an instant the fire rushed directly to the surroundings, swallowing up the entire door in the blink of an eye.

Then he directly picked up a torch and looked at the wooden door that was completely wet with kerosene. The man sneered: "You are unlucky enough to meet the Third Young Master. Even the gods will not be able to save you tonight."

Du Cheng looked calm and said calmly: "This inn is very large, and there is an open space in the backyard to hide in, so that the flames cannot burn them directly to death quickly, but can give them a chance to breathe, so I keep the gate and this building. The reason for not burning it directly is to prevent them from being able to rush out without any obstruction after the gate is burned down."

"Moreover, they are tired of running for their lives, and their mental and physical strength are extremely exhausted. We are waiting for work... Due to many factors, it is impossible for us to lose! The victory or defeat tonight has been decided."

Hearing this, the burly man felt his heart surge. He quickly said: "It will definitely go well. There can be nothing in Shenshan County that is beyond the control of my Du family."

boom!boom!
At the same time, the door that had been burned by the flames and had just become quiet suddenly made a violent sound again.

The man hurriedly said: "The flames in the inn have been spreading one after another, giving them less and less breathing space. If they can delay for one more breath, a few more enemies will be burned to death. The young master's casual plan is enough to kill more of them." Dozens or even hundreds of people died. Looking at the young talents in the world, I am afraid that there is no other hero who can kill hundreds of people as easily as the young master."

Just listen to a pop sound.

"Third Young Master."

As soon as he finished speaking, the torch in his hand drew an arc in the air and hit the door with a bang.

Killing roars full of murderous intent suddenly came from a distance.

When the calm Du Cheng heard these words, he finally showed a different look. He raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said with a smile: "If you can do this, you performed well tonight, I will not treat you badly."

"It's not unparalleled."

"What? Reinforcements!?"

The burly man exclaimed.

Just now, he promised that there would be no accidents and everything would go smoothly. However, the next moment, enemy reinforcements arrived. Was this a slap in the face?
"Report——"

A Du family spy galloped directly towards Du Cheng and said anxiously: "Master, something is not right. Two streets away from here, the door of a house was suddenly opened, and more than two hundred people rushed out with big swords, heading towards Let’s rush here.”

"Looking at their clothes, they look exactly like the thieves trapped in the inn. They should be their accomplices!"

"Do they really have reinforcements!?" The burly man's expression completely changed.

The door was violently knocked again, indicating that the enemy had not given up hope of rushing out at all, but instead worked hard to smash the door into pieces at one go.

In this case, their people could not move at all. After all, they still needed to stop the enemy at the door so that the enemy could not easily rush out of the inn.

But the enemy's reinforcements came, and there were two hundred of them. With so many reinforcements coming, they had to allocate their manpower to fight them.

But once the manpower is divided, it will be useless if there are less, they will not be able to stop these reinforcements, but if there are more... once the door is knocked open, they will not be able to stop the enemies in the inn.

Now that the flames have just connected, the enemy's casualties are not that large. Once the enemy rushes out at this time, their plan will be directly shattered, and at the same time they will face the dilemma of being attacked from both front and rear.

At that time, it is not a matter of whether they win or not, but whether they can survive!

The situation took a turn for the worse, and the burly man no longer knew what to do.

He couldn't help but look at Du Cheng on the horse and said, "Sir, what should we do?"

Du Cheng frowned at this moment, and the sharpness in his eyes quickly turned solemn and heavy. He quickly mobilized the knowledge of military art in his brain, trying to find a way to deal with the predicament at hand.

However, he couldn't find any solution.

He has brought out all the people from the Du family. It is impossible for the remaining people of the Du family to leave the Du family... After all, the Du family also has to guard against other accidents. Once the huge Du family has no ability to protect itself, , there is no telling what will happen.

But the Du family could not give him any more troops. His existing strength alone was simply not enough to stop the members of the Four Elephants Organization in the inn, and then stop these sudden reinforcements of more than 200 people.

A wolf in front and a tiger in the back!

Du Cheng couldn't help but think of this word. It was the first time in his life that he encountered such an unexpected accident that made him at a loss.

His eyes kept flashing, and he finally gritted his teeth and said: "There is no way, there is no solution!"

"We can't divide our troops to stop the reinforcements, but if we don't stop them, they will definitely rush here. Even if we don't want to, we will be entangled by them and disperse our troops... The door is about to be smashed. Once our troops are dispersed, There is absolutely no way we can stop the enemies in the inn. Once they break out, we will face disaster!"

The burly man couldn't help but feel nervous. He subconsciously held the ax tightly and said, "What about us?"

Du Cheng's expression flickered, and he quickly made a decisive decision: "Leave here...return to the mansion, use the mansion wall as a defense line, and fight with them."

The burly man's face changed immediately: "This...doesn't this mean that the battlefield has been transferred to the Du family?"

Du Cheng looked at him coldly: "You think I am willing to do this? This kind of battle will inevitably cause our Du family to suffer some damage, but if we don't do this, all of us will die... Once we die, they We won’t let go of the Du family, but if the Du family doesn’t have us, how can we fight them?”

"When the moment comes..."

The burly man's heart was in suspense. He looked at Du Cheng nervously and heard Du Cheng say in a deep voice: "It's not about the damage to the Du Mansion, it's about whether my Du family will suffer a disaster!"

These words directly made the burly man feel a chill, which went straight to Tianling Gai, making him instantly feel like he was struck by lightning.

He never thought that just the reinforcements of more than two hundred people would make things so bad!

He was no longer calm and said quickly: "Yes! Let's go back to Du's house quickly!"

As he said that, he couldn't help complaining: "It's all Lin Feng's fault! If Lin Feng hadn't begged our Du family, how could the head of the family interfere in this matter? How could we face such danger! The head of the family is just too kind, and the rest of the family will stop asking for help. Go ahead and help."

"But it turns out... Lin Feng is hiding somewhere and enjoying himself, but we are facing such a danger."

Du Cheng's eyes flickered and he did not respond to the burly man's words.

After all, as a direct descendant of the Du family, he knew more inside stories... They helped Lin Feng not because of Lin Feng at all, but because they had to take action. At the same time, it was also because people from the Four Elephants Organization followed their Du family spies to the Du Mansion. Even if you jump into the Yellow River, you can't clean yourself up. Even if it's for yourself, you have to take action.

But these secrets were only known to the direct descendants of the Du family, so when his subordinates complained about Lin Feng, he also allowed them to complain, pouring all the dirty water on Lin Feng and letting Lin Feng bear the consequences of all the failures.

The glorious image of the Du family must be maintained.

"Give me the order..." Du Cheng looked at the door being violently hit by sparks and saw that the good situation was fleeting. Even though he was full of unwillingness, he could only grit his teeth and said: "Withdraw——"

But before he could say the word "retreat", he suddenly heard a voice that surprised him.

In the silent night, the murderous roars that were originally full of murderous intent suddenly turned into screams and fighting sounds at this moment, and the sound of weapons clashing came from afar.

Although it was not too real, the night was too quiet. Du Cheng had been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his ears and eyes were stronger than ordinary people, so he still heard it.

"Did I hear wrong?"

The burly man couldn't help turning his head and looked in the direction of the sound. He was not sure and said: "Sir, I seem to hear the sound of fighting..."

Du Cheng's brows jumped and he couldn't help but said: "You heard that right."

"Is there really the sound of fighting!?"

The burly man was stunned: "Why is there the sound of fighting? Could it be that someone was fighting with the enemy's reinforcements? But where did they come from? Isn't the Du family unable to send more troops?"

Du Cheng rubbed the reins, pondered for a moment, and said, "Could it be that the people from the Yamen guarding the city gate came to support?"

The burly man's eyes lit up and he said quickly: "It must be them! Now only the Yamen has the strength to fight! But the city gate is not close to here, how could the people from the Yamen arrive so quickly? Could it be that the county magistrate sensed the danger in advance? "

Du Cheng shook his head, he couldn't figure it out either.

"Report——"

At this time, another Du family spy rushed over.

He quickly said to Du Cheng: "Sir, when the enemy's reinforcements were halfway through, they were suddenly stopped by a group of masked men in black. There were hundreds of men in black. They launched a sneak attack and killed the enemy directly. The reinforcements were caught off guard, and now those reinforcements have been blocked and cannot come to support for the time being!"

"Man in black!?"

The burly man was startled: "There is no need for the Yamen servants to cover their faces, right? It's not like they can't see the light...Aren't they from the Yamen?"

Du Cheng's handsome face couldn't hide his confusion and surprise. He and the burly man had the same idea.

He frowned and said, "Do you know the origins of these men in black?"

The spy hurriedly said: "They said they came to exterminate the thieves in the name of Lin Sizheng."

"What!? Lin Feng!?"

The burly man's eyes suddenly widened, his face filled with even more astonishment.

"People sent by Lin Feng! Could it be that Lin Feng anticipated that the enemy would have reinforcements in advance, so he arranged the manpower to stop them in advance?"

Just now, he was complaining about Lin Feng, saying that Lin Feng was hiding and enjoying himself, putting the Du family in danger, but in the blink of an eye, the people arranged by Lin Feng came out to block the reinforcements... He only felt that he was in trouble with someone tonight, why? Keep saying the wrong thing.

Du Cheng's expression was also constantly changing. The expression in his sharp eyes was very complicated, including shock, surprise, and a trace of hidden fear and jealousy, but soon, all the expressions were hidden.

He looked at the door again and said: "Since Lin Si Zheng also has a trump card, let's seize the time they buy for us, stop these thieves, and do our best to let them die in the inn's fire."

boom!
At this time, the fragile inn door was finally smashed.

Sparks suddenly rushed in all directions.

At the same time, several people whose whole bodies were wrapped in flames howled in pain and rushed out.

Seeing this scene, the burly man and Du Cheng couldn't help but tremble in their hearts. They realized that Sixiang organized these people and was trying to break the door with their lives.

If the door bursts open, it would be impossible for them to survive.

"Fire arrows!"

Du Cheng quickly regained his composure and issued the order.

In an instant, the archers who had been prepared shot arrows one after another.

The arrows pierced the members of the Four Elephants wrapped in flames and pinned them to the ground, preventing them from rushing into the crowd and letting others be covered in flames.

And as these burning people rushed out, behind them were the members of the Four Elephants without any sparks. They seized this opportunity and rushed out with all their strength.

But Du Cheng was already prepared, and what was waiting for them was a sharper sword.

The narrow inn door directly became the most terrifying meat grinding ground.

Du Cheng knew very well how much the Four Elephants members in the inn wanted to break out, and he knew even better the consequences of these people rushing out, so he flashed his eyes and said loudly: "You guys give up, with my Du family guarding you, there is no way you can Come out...and let me tell you some bad news. Your reinforcements have been blocked by people arranged by Lin Temple. They cannot come to support you. You have no hope."

…………

The backyard of the inn.

An area completely soaked with well water.

Kui Su was still wearing a black robe, but the black robe was already soaked with water and was tightly pressed against Kui Su's body, revealing Kui Su's strong figure.

Kuisu held a wet handkerchief in his hand, covering his mouth and nose with it while listening to his men's report.

"This third son of the Du family, Du Cheng, is quite capable."

Even though he was in such a dangerous situation, Kui Su still remained calm. He said: "Seeing that the door could no longer stop us, he lit it with kerosene to prevent our collision and delay... Seeing that we had opened the door, he did not He gave us a chance to rush out of the door and directly blocked us at the door. Now he is seizing the opportunity to hit us with words and try to weaken our morale... Even if he is placed in the army, compared with some generals, his reaction is It’s not too bad.”

When Shouhou heard Kui Su praising Du Cheng, he almost jumped up anxiously: "Xingjun, why are you still praising him? Now that he is blocking the outside, we won't be able to rush out at all for a while."

"And the flames are getting more and more powerful. If we don't go out, there may be danger here. He wants to burn us alive."

Even though he was a man of few words, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious at this moment: "How could this Lin Feng be so insidious! Xing Jun secretly left some men outside to deal with unexpected emergencies... But who knew that he, Lin Feng, also had arrangements? Now our reinforcements can't get through, and we can't get out, what should we do?"

Kui Su listened to his confidant's words and looked towards the raging fire. Feeling the discomfort of the burning fire, he said with a special tone: "I finally understand Lin Feng's intention. He doesn't want to avoid our pursuit at all." , he wants to kill us."

"What? Counterattack!?"

Slender Monkey and Scarface were both shocked.

Kui Su said: "Think about all the things we encountered tonight, one after another, one after another, they are actually consumption and suppression of us one by one. Until now, even my reinforcements hidden outside have been destroyed by Lin Feng We were stopped, Lin Feng clearly wants this place to become our burial ground!"

He sneered: "I originally wanted this place to be his burial ground, but I never thought that he had the same idea as me... He is truly worthy of being the substitute I chose. He is worthy of being the one who did it even with my own body." He is more ruthless than me in my true form!"

Shouhou's heart tightened. At this moment, he questioned his previous thoughts for the first time... He had always said that fate determined that the substitute would die at the hands of the main body, but the current situation made him feel horribly that things seemed to be That’s not the case anymore.

But Scarface seemed to realize something. He couldn't help but look at Kui Su and said, "Xingjun doesn't seem worried at all...Does Xingjun have a backup plan?"

"What? Xingjun still has a backup plan?"

Upon hearing this, Shouhou quickly looked at Kuisu.

Then Kui Su said calmly: "Think about the power Lin Feng used tonight."

"At the city gate, if he can stop the force of a hundred people I sent, he at least used the force of a hundred people."

"Then there are people like Jin Fenglu, with the strength of one hundred, fifty or sixty people."

"Then came the Du family, more than three hundred people."

"Finally... the force used to stop my two hundred reinforcements must be at least a hundred or more, otherwise we won't be able to stop them at all."

"Calculated in this way, there are four forces... But Lin Feng has just arrived in Shenshan County. Shenshan County is a small county, and the powerful forces are limited. In other words... these four forces, as expected, are already the limit of what Lin Feng can use. ”

"Otherwise, we are trapped here in a great situation. If Lin Fengruo still has other forces, he should send them out to take action with the Du family. In this case, we can be completely trapped here at the minimum cost and let We perished in the flames."

"But Lin Feng didn't... With his ability, he would never miss such an opportunity. But he didn't do this. This means that he has no extra manpower in his hand and all his trump cards have been used up."

Listening to Kuisu's words, Shouhou and Scarface couldn't help but nod their heads.

Kuisu continued: "The two armies are facing off, playing on the chessboard, and the competition is who can keep the trump card until the end... The first person who uses up all the trump cards will be shown in front of the opponent without reservation, then the person who still has the trump cards left , so we can be targeted.”

Shouhou and Scarface looked at each other. They finally understood what Kuisu meant. This guess made them excited and excited.

Thin Monkey couldn't help but said: "Xingjun...could it be that you really have another trump card?"

Everyone else also looked at Kuisu expectantly.

Then he saw the corners of Kuisu's mouth slightly raised, his eyes sweeping over the crowd, and he slowly said: "Lin Feng is our number one confidant in Xing Gong. It is such an important matter to intercept and kill him. With Xing Gong's cautious habits, how could he only arrange for you guys?" people?"

"What!?"

The pupils of the thin monkey and the scarred face jumped suddenly at this moment.

"Could it be!?" They couldn't help but shout in shock.

Kui Su slowly walked out and said: "Lin Feng is too smart, so if you want to hide it from him, you must first hide it from yourself. When you don't know it, Lin Feng will naturally not know it... Let's go. , it’s time to end all this farce tonight.”

"Next, let Lin Feng take a look... my last trump card."

…………

A room with flickering candles.

Lin Feng, who was reading a book, raised his head as if he felt something. He glanced at the dark night outside and said, "Fifteen, what time is it?"

Zhao Shiwu hurriedly said: "It's already ugly time. The watchman just passed by not long ago."

"Chou Shi... Before I knew it, it was already this hour."

Lin Feng put down the book and suddenly stood up. He stretched and said slowly: "Everyone, are you tired of being stuck here and only listening to information?"

Sun Fuga, who had a tacit understanding with Lin Feng, couldn't help but feel something in his heart when he heard this. He seemed to understand something and quickly said: "Zide, do you mean that?"

Lin Feng nodded to Sun Fujia. He smiled and walked directly out: "Let's go, it's time for us to go out and join in the fun. There are not many opportunities for such a wonderful four-party forces to gather together... It's time for this big show. It’s time for the finale.”
