I use my daughter's body to cut down the rivers and lakes

Chapter 13 Take it all down
  Liu Shijiu covered his shoulders and staggered into a narrow dark alley.

She leaned her back against the wall, her breathing gradually became steady, and then she stood there for a long time.

Liu Shijiu breathed a sigh of relief until he was sure that no one was chasing him.
  "Hiss—" Only now did Liu Shijiu feel the burning pain on his shoulder, and couldn't help but take a breath of air.

At this moment, a hand came out of the night fog and rested on Liu Jiu's shoulder.

"boom!"

Liu Qi raised her hand to block Liu Jiujiu's horizontal palm, and then said coldly: "It's me!"

"Liu Qi!" Liu Shijiu exclaimed.

Then she seemed to realize something and lowered her voice and whispered: "We have fallen into a trap. The man named Zhou teamed up with the government to set a trap for Commander Chen."

Liu Shijiu said, suddenly paused, and then his tone was a bit colder: "Why did you come now!"

"Did you leave the code on the city wall?" Liu Qi directly changed the subject.

As he spoke, Liu Qi uttered a "chi" and pulled out the arrow on Liu Jiu's shoulder.

"Ah——" Liu Jiu couldn't help but moaned in pain.

Liu Qi put the arrowhead in front of his nose and smelled it. There was nothing unusual except for the strong smell of blood.

Only then did Liu Qi feel relieved, and then his fingers touched several acupuncture points around Liu Shijiu's shoulders like a gust of wind, temporarily stopping the bleeding.

"It took a little time to deal with Ning Si. When I rushed back to the city, I found that officers and soldiers were under martial law at the east gate, so I was delayed." Liu Qi explained in a calm tone.

Maybe it's because of Liu Qi's action just now, or maybe it's because of the trust they have gained from getting along day and night for more than ten years.

Hearing this, Liu Jiujiu did not doubt that he was there, but said harshly: "I will definitely cut the people in the government into pieces."

"Hiss—" As he spoke, he pulled at the wound on his shoulder and took another breath.

"Where are Commander Chen and Liu Er?" Liu Qi felt relieved when he saw that Liu Shijiu had no doubts in his words, and then asked.

Liu Jiujiu shook his head: "After I entered the city, I originally wanted to find Commander Chen directly and tell him that Zhou Jizu was in the city."

"It turns out that Commander Chen was not at the place agreed upon in advance."

"I guess they have already taken action, so they rushed towards the county government office."

"As a result, before they even got close to the county government office, they were discovered by a police officer. Seeing that they were outnumbered, I was worried that alerting the enemy would delay Commander Chen's actions, so I thought of evacuating directly, but I didn't expect..."

Liu Jiu gritted his teeth and said quietly: "They actually ambush the crossbowmen. I was not aware of it and was hit by an arrow."

Seeing that Liu Shijiu was injured, how could the officers and soldiers let him go so easily, so they sent people to chase him all the way.

Because the opponent had cavalry, Liu Jiu could only choose to walk on the roof.

"Thank you for what happened today!" Liu Shijiu suddenly said in a deep voice, "I owe you my life."

Liu Qi ignored her, just looked at the sky in the north of the city, and said calmly: "The most urgent task is to know whether Commander Chen and the others are dead or alive."

It would be better to just die.

If he was caught alive, wouldn't the existence of Xiliu Villa also have to be tortured?
  Liu Qi shook his head.

He still didn't quite believe that even if he fell into a trap, with the four masters of Xiliu Villa with him, Chen Wu should be fine.

……

In fact, Liu Qi's guess was not wrong.

At this time, the county government was in a state of chaos.

In the originally solemn lobby, corpses were lying on the floor.

Judging from the clothes of the corpses, they seemed to be police officers in the Yamen.

A young man in official uniform stood in the lobby with a livid face, his slender eyes scanning the corpses around him.

At this time, a head catcher in Tsing Yi trotted in. When he saw the young man with a calm expression in the lobby, he couldn't help wiping the sweat on his forehead, then stepped forward and reported loudly:
  "Master Li, my subordinates have sealed the city gate according to your instructions. The crossbowmen who are guarding and supporting the city are also outside the county government office, ready to obey your orders."

"And..." Seeing the arrester hesitate, the young official looked sideways at him.

"Sir..." Feeling that the other party's gaze was like a poisonous snake, the catcher's forehead was covered with beads of sweat.

"The king's arrester." Looking at the trembling arrester, the young official suddenly said, "Where is the man you are chasing after?"

Sure enough, it came anyway!

Wang Baotou lowered his head and closed his eyes helplessly, and then replied truthfully: "My subordinate did not do his job well, so he was rescued!"

Mr. Wang told the story that they were chasing the injured woman, but they were attacked with broken bamboos on the way, and that they lost the person they were chasing.

Then he lowered his head as if resigned to his fate, waiting for his resignation.

But the young official did not reprimand him. Instead, he murmured to himself: "When did such a group of masters appear in Donghe County!"

I thought I had a lot of credit for it, but now not only have all my previous efforts been wasted, but my men have also suffered heavy losses!
  Looking at the corpses lying on the ground, frost appeared on the young official's face again.

"Where's the one named Zhou?" He suddenly remembered something and asked Wang Captou, "Where has he gone?"

"You mean Ji Tianbao?" Wang Captou asked cautiously.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the young official snort coldly: "This little trick of the Zhou family and his son is just to deceive the ignorant people."

"Where are the others!"

Hearing the stern tone of his superior, Wang Captou did not dare to neglect, and quickly replied: "Sir, thank you very much... After Zhou Jizu met one of his subordinates, he took his people to Zhoujiazhuang."

"I heard... everyone in Zhoujiazhuang was wiped out!"

……

The next morning.

It was just dawn.

Liu Qi pushed open the door of the woodshed and saw Liu Shijiu in the corner with a wary look on his face.

Liu Qi didn't say anything and threw an oil paper bag directly to Liu Shijiu.

"Eat first." Liu Qi also opened another oil paper bag, took the hot bun and ate it.

Liu Shijiu couldn't help but swallow as he watched Liu Qisan finish off a bun in two mouthfuls. At this time, he didn't care about his image, tore open the oil paper bag, held the bun and ate it with big mouthfuls.

Liu Qi looked at Liu Shijiu's eating posture and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

After all, she is still a girl in her twenties.

In previous lives, most of them were the darlings of their parents.

It's not like living a life of licking blood now.

Liu Shijiu's cheeks were bulging, and he looked very cute and cute.

"When I recover from my injuries, I must let them cut into pieces!" But the vicious words that followed instantly shattered the good impression Liu Qi had suddenly had on him.

"Liu Qi!" Liu Nineteen wiped the oil stains from the corner of his mouth, raised his head and said with a faint look, "How about you and I join forces and directly kill the county government?"

Liu Qi turned her head, not looking at the crazy and fierce look in the girl's eyes.

She knew in her heart that Liu Jiu himself was not to blame for all this.

They are all victims of Xiliu Villa.

"You should recover from your injuries first. The most important thing now is to contact Commander Chen and the others as soon as possible." Liu Qi said in a deep voice.

"Commander Chen, are they okay?"

"The gates on all four sides are under martial law, and there are officers and soldiers patrolling the streets." Liu Qi said calmly, "It seems that the other party has not captured Commander Chen and the others."

"At least... not all of them were taken."
