Chapter 710 The Sixth Horse Thief

When I was investigating Zhang Ai's news that day, I found two people who were eating at the same table by the way. I knew that they were ordinary people in the city and had no power, so I made up my mind to extort some money. No matter what, I was beaten, and someone must be responsible. You know I'm an official, so I can't be bullied casually. 26nbsp;This was the idea of ​​the secretary, and he really didn't really want to torture the two of them, he just wanted to get some money to vent his anger.

So Zhang was afraid of leaving, and waited for a long time until it got dark. He also understood what he said, he just wanted money, and if he didn't give the money, he would live in a prison. The crime was to attack the court order.

How can he be considered an official?To be considered an official is already unbelievable, but people are like this, it is always difficult to recognize themselves, thinking that with a layer of skin, they have the capital of arrogance.

He locked up the people in a majestic manner, waiting for the two families to send the money for compensation. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, a guard at the city gate sent a message back, saying that the carriage that had left the city during the day had returned.

Even in a bustling capital city, the city gates have to be closed at night, let alone a city that has just been flooded and is not considered safe.At this time, Zhang was afraid to be locked up outside the city, because the two of them had nothing to do in prison for the time being, so he didn't plan to enter the city at night.He didn't care where he stayed, he wanted to solve the problem anyway, and he wanted to save the two of them in a way as peaceful as possible.

It's easy to tidy up the book office, but the trouble is what if another book office appears after he leaves?Those two families still have to be bullied. If they knew they shouldn't be in contact with those two people, they would cause trouble for no reason.

The most troublesome thing is that the book does not lead to death, so what is the crime of swearing?Although it is hateful to blackmail people, the reason is to vent your anger on yourself. Although the method of venting your anger is not good, there is always a reason for it.Zhang was afraid of thinking about beating him up again?

Otherwise, misfortunes never come singly, bad luck happened together, he was waiting for the city gate to open tomorrow, and unexpectedly ran into robbers in the middle of the night.A cavalry team, more than 30 people, came rumbling from the north. Some of the team carried big bags, and some had women on horseback. They took money without delay.

The appearance of the horse thieves made Zhang afraid very puzzled, is it so unsafe within the dignified border of Da Yue?He secretly said in his heart: "Because of the dispute in the restaurant, I was attacked by the demon cultivator, let's see what kind of trouble I will cause me if I meet a horse thief?"

I don't know what the defenders of the city are thinking, the city gate is closed, there is not even a lantern, looking at the darkness, even a torch will do.The horse team headed south from a hundred steps outside the city gate and saw a dark shadow under the city gate. Someone was curious and rode over to take a look, and then whistled to attract more people.

A lonely carriage at the gate of the city made these guys tempted. One sheep is driven, and two sheep are herded. You can't miss it when you pass by. If you happen to be together, let's go together.Hula surrounded the carriage, regardless of whether there was money in the carriage, at least one horse could be robbed, and it would be even better if there was a woman in the carriage.

Afraid that they would surround him, Zhang asked in a low voice, "What are you doing?"

The horses are full of big men, all of them are strong and strong. Hearing this, he laughed, and someone asked with a smile: "Why does he ask us?" Someone replied: "Then you tell him?" These people are not afraid of the officers and soldiers in the city. He continued to laugh, and said to Zhang Ai every word: "Fuck you."

Well, I was defeated by you again. The people in this world live a colorful life, and they even have such a characteristic of cursing. Looking at the women on horses and the burden behind them, they asked softly: "You are horse thieves! ?”

When I asked this question, I was thinking in my heart, is there also horse thieves in the south?I have always heard that there are horse thieves in the north, but I have never seen them. Today I have a chance to open my eyes.

There was a commotion outside, and a head appeared on the gate of the city, shouting, "What's the commotion down there? Hurry up and disperse, do you all want to die?"

He just finished shouting, and someone in the horse team below scolded back: "Come on, grandpa wants to die, do you dare to come out and kill me? Open the city gate quickly, come and kill grandpa." The voice was loud, and it spread far in the quiet night, startling Raise more city guards.

Even from the top to the bottom of the city, none of the soldiers in this gang spoke nicely. Zhang was afraid that as soon as he turned his head, the door of the carriage opened, and a child came out and asked, "Brother, what happened?"

Zhang Ai said earnestly and earnestly corrected: "Remember, I am your master, not your elder brother." "No, you are an elder brother, your elder brother is a relative, and the master is not a relative?" I was a little moved in my heart, but still said positively: "Who says master is not a relative, master master, master first, and then father..."

Before he finished talking, a gang of horse thieves got impatient, and someone shouted: "Get out of the car, or don't blame grandpa for being blind with knives." One by one, they drew out their waist knives, showing off their power, and yelling strangely to scare people.

Afraid that the horse thief would be disadvantaged, Zhang continued to babble: "...a teacher for one day will be a father for the rest of his life. The old saying is true, you have to remember it." Come.

Zhang was afraid that he would not turn around, a hard iron sword appeared in his hand, and he swung it lightly in the dark, cutting the person with the knife in two, then turned around and said, "You guys deserve to die."

Zhang was afraid that the horse thieves would be taken aback by his quick movements. He raised the rein and stepped back a few steps. His eyes changed from joking to cautious, and one of them asked, "May I ask your friend's name?"

Afraid that Zhang would ignore him, he pushed the child into the car, and walked over with a big black knife instead. He wanted to kill people anyway, and he didn't want to talk nonsense with the dead.

More than 30 horse thieves sensed something was wrong, and someone shouted: "Thieves, do you dare to kill soldiers and rebel?"

"Oh?" Zhang was afraid to stop, and looked at the horse thieves one by one. The horses were all well equipped, except for the clothes, they really had a soldier's air, and asked, "Are you soldiers?"

The person who called out thought he would frighten Zhang Ai, and said with a sneer, "Have you ever heard of the name of the cavalry battalion of the Jingnan Army?"

Zhang Afraid shook his head, thinking about where the Jingnan Army came from?Jingnan Jingnan is clearly to suppress Zhanluan, but there is Zhanluan in the south?Think carefully about what you have seen recently, except for a flood, it seems that there is nothing wrong.

Seeing that he didn't speak, the caller thought that the other party was timid, and shouted: "Killing my sergeant is like rebellion, boy..." He wanted to kill Zhang Afraid to avenge his comrades, but he looked at Zhang Afraid wisely. The big black knife was straight to the point of fear, the big guy like a door panel, just kidding, he must have some skills, the man who shouted said in a low voice: "Let's go, it's a capital offense if you don't get roll call during the day."

The man looked at Zhang Afraid and still had a calm face surrounded by more than 30 strong men, chatting and laughing happily. The price of one person's death must be endured.

When he tugged, the person who spoke just now was taken aback. If they were found out what they were doing now, it would be a capital crime, but their companion was killed, so it is unreasonable to ignore it?Heartbroken, he secretly pulled out two throwing knives and threw them at Zhang Fear. He swung the saber again, rushed forward on his horse, and slashed down with the knife in his hand.The whole set of movements is extremely coherent, but it's a pity that no matter how coherent it is, Zhang was afraid that he would have a murderous intention, and he was floating in the night like flying smoke, and then he heard plopping sounds one after another, and more than thirty men All of them fell from their horses, and looking at their bodies, their throats were all severed, and blood gushed out.

Zhang was afraid to go and hold the horses. All the horses had official seals on their rear hips, and they were military horses.Zhang feared to shake his head, how can a soldier in the village have any combat power to speak of?These people died as soon as they died, and there was no reason to kill them by mistake.

However, there were still four big girls lying on the saddle with their hands and feet tied across the horse.Just now those people fell off the horse, Zhang Ao secretly supported the four with all his strength, so they didn't fall off the horse together.

Go over and hug them, and tear the rope.Although the four women were not very beautiful, they were more or less attractive. They looked at Zhang Ai with a look of fear, wondering how this murderer would treat them.

Afraid Zhang didn't look at them, he estimated the distance. If the soldiers came out to loot, the camp should not be far away, and the looted place should not be too far away. Let go of your spiritual sense, and there is a village fifteen miles to the west, shrouded in mourning. There is a military camp fifteen miles south, with more than 6000 cavalry stationed there.

With his cultivation base, troops stationed, can be detected during the day, and looting at night can also be detected.But he has always been unwilling to use his spiritual sense to monitor the surrounding situation. One is that the lives of ordinary people have nothing to do with him, and the other is that he will always see and hear many unnecessary things, such as cheating or something, which disturbs him.

In addition, my mind was entangled with children and demon cultivators, and I didn't have the mind to use my mind to scan the distance, so I didn't find the disaster of looting.

Now that we know where the disaster happened, we should send them back.Looking back at the city gate, there are soldiers standing on the city wall at this time, at least a hundred people, seeing Zhang Ai killing someone easily, a bunch of people are stunned, but no one dares to open the door to catch the robbers.

Zhang was afraid and ignored them, thinking of coming back during the day, so he said something: "Tell that scribe, I will pick up the two people who are locked in the prison in the evening, tomorrow."

What he said is not clear, and it doesn't matter whether the guards can understand it or not, but he can't hide the fact that he killed more than 30 horse thieves from the officials in the city. people.

He packed up the bundles that the thieves had snatched, and found a bunch of things from them. After packing them up, he didn't talk to the four women. He lifted them up one by one and put them on the horse's back. Then he said: "Send you Go home and fix it." The four women hurriedly fixed the saddle, their eyes were still nervous, they didn't know how this man knew where they lived, but they were too timid to ask questions.Zhang Ai tied the reins together, and walked in line one by one, and then pulled out the carriages, forming a long procession of horses and slowly heading west.

Fifteen li, half an hour on a fast horse.In order to take care of the four women, Zhang was afraid to go to the place until dawn.A village of more than 300 people has apparently just been looted. The doors and windows of many people's homes are broken, and the houses are turned into a mess. There is also a long row of corpses outside the houses. There are about [-] corpses, some of whom are slightly injured. The villagers, either angry or sad, stood on the street.

Suddenly I saw four women on the horse, and an older woman ran over crying: "Ah, is that you? Are you okay?" Someone called out loudly: "Third Fatty, your daughter is back."
