"what!"

"Uh!"

"not good!"

A series of muffled groans or screams came out from the nearby rooms, which seemed to be mixed with the sound of windows being broken with something. Xu Zizhen was terrified and sat up abruptly. The other people in the room were also woken up with pale faces. He huddled against the wall, bewildered.

The noise outside the house soon stopped, and then it seemed that someone was dragging something out, Xu Zizhen and the two more courageous climbed to the window to peek out, and saw a group of people appearing in the yard at some point The golden soldiers were all holding strong crossbows in their hands, and the doors of two rooms on the opposite side had been opened. Several golden soldiers were dragging a dead body to go out. The crossbow arrows have been tied like hedgehogs.

That team of golden soldiers had sharp eyes and strong hands, obviously they were not ordinary soldiers, they quickly cleaned up the two rooms, only the long blood marks in the yard under the moonlight were telling others that what happened here just now What's up.

Xu Zizhen's back was covered with cold sweat. He was glad that he had noticed something was wrong early on, and he hadn't revealed any flaws during the day, otherwise he might have been one of the corpses dragged out just now.

There is nothing in these rooms, the team of golden soldiers appeared without anyone noticing, and there is not even a piece of wood in the house, and there is nowhere to hide when dozens of crossbows are fired. Gai Shi could not escape death, just like some of those dead people tried to break out of the window by force, but they still failed in the end.

Xu Mo was even more unbearable. He had already been frightened to the point where his face was pale and trembling like chaff. He had seen dead people, but seeing dead people and seeing murder were two different concepts. By this time he had collapsed to the ground.

The courtyard was quiet again, Xu Zizhen took a deep breath, winked at Xu Mo, deliberately pretended that his legs were weak from fright, and went back to sleep in panic.

The yamen servant didn't show up again. In his opinion, all the rebels who should be found out of the sixty people have been found out, and the rest are poor people who are miserable, and they are no longer worthy of his supervision. The next morning Sure enough, an ordinary gold soldier came and took the remaining civilian husbands to start work. Xu Zizhen and Xu Mo Susan pretended to be frightened last night, and continued the cleaning work with trepidation.

The golden soldier sat on the sidelines and supervised the work boredly. He didn't even bother to look at them, but he never left. He even urinated on the sidelines. Xu Zizhen was not in a hurry. Run, have to wait until night.

The day passed smoothly, and it was dark again. Xu Zizhen and the others returned to the yard after finishing their work. They still went to sleep after eating. The golden soldier also entered the room with a jug of wine. I fell asleep after a few mouthfuls.

Xu Zizhen was lying in bed with his eyes closed as if he was in deep sleep, but in fact he remained awake. After an unknown amount of time, there was a sound of beeping from outside the house, and Xu Zizhen suddenly opened his eyes.

The others in the room were already asleep, so he gently pushed Xu Mo, and Xu Mo immediately opened his eyes. During the day, he found an opportunity to tell Xu Mo, go to him today. Check it out at home.

There was no movement in the yard, Xu Zizhen listened carefully, took off the cotton coat on his body, rolled it up and stuffed it into the bed, Xu Moyi did the same, the two came to the door and gently opened the door, quietly slipped out.

After being confirmed by the master yamen servant, there is no need to guard here. There are only a few dozen civilians. They are not afraid of any moths. The two slipped out of the yard without any difficulty. Lane has long been familiar with, taking Xu Zizhen through the dark night, encountering a night watchman on the road, Xu Zizhen tactfully avoided it early.

Xu Mo's house is not too far from here. After about a stick of incense, the two came to a dark gate. Xu Zizhen looked around, and saw that the house occupied a wide area and the walls were tall. Outside the gate were two huge The stone lions and the copper door cymbals on the gate are shiny in the moonlight, and they are actually plated with gold.

He couldn't help being a little surprised. He didn't expect Xu Mo's family to be so big. Xu Mo seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and said in a low voice: "My family was originally the richest household in Hejian Mansion, and our ancestors have been in the business of medicinal materials for generations."

Xu Zizhen immediately understood that the two most profitable businesses in this world are road robbers and drug sellers. It is not surprising that Xu Mo's family has such a big house, but just thinking about Xu Mo going to Taiyuan City to cheat after his family was ruined. That's a bit of a waste of time.

Xu Mo's eyes were a little sad. This huge house was originally his home, but now not only the home has been taken over, but even his parents and family are dead. It's good that the huge difference in the world didn't drive him crazy.

Xu Zizhen didn't urge him, and he wouldn't feel good about this matter, he just patted Xu Mo's shoulder silently.

Xu Mo let out a long breath, turned around and forced a smile: "I'm sorry, brother Xu, come with me." As he spoke, he walked into a small alley next to him, Xu Zizhen shook his head and followed. With Xu Mo's performance after arriving in the city, Xu Zizhen was already sure that Xu Mo had really come to help him, especially the look in Xu Mo's eyes just now, the sadness, longing and helplessness in it were definitely not fake.

Not long after, the two came to the depths of the alley. It was a dead end, and the ground was extremely dirty, but there was a small locked door at the innermost end.

Xu Mo looked at the entrance of the alley vigilantly, then pinched the lock and pulled it back, and the lock opened with a soft click.

He turned his head and smiled at Xu Zizhen: "This lock has always been broken, and it's just pretending. I used to sneak out of the house from here to play..."

When he said this, his voice stopped abruptly, and he couldn't speak any more.

Xu Zizhen suddenly grabbed his shoulders and said seriously: "Your family's revenge will definitely be avenged!"

Xu Mo looked up at Xu Zizhen in astonishment, he found that Xu Zizhen's eyes were full of firmness, at this moment he suddenly had unreasonable trust in Xu Zizhen, and there seemed to be a voice in his heart telling him that Xu Zizhen's words were definitely not lying to him.

He grinned: "Thank you, brother!" As soon as he finished speaking, he gently opened the small door in front of him, and a quiet bamboo forest path appeared in front of him, and the outline of a small building was faintly revealed in the moonlight in the distance.

Xu Mo walked through the bamboo forest with Xu Zizhen, and after a while, an open garden appeared in front of him. At this moment, a group of golden soldiers patrolled over, and the two quickly stopped and hid behind a rockery .

"Strange, there were no golden soldiers guarding them last time, so why are there so many people this time?" Xu Mo muttered rather strangely.

Xu Zizhen frowned, and asked, "What is the position of General Jin who occupied your house?"

Xu Mo said: "He is a partial general of the vanguard of the right army."

Xu Zizhen smiled suddenly: "Interesting, it seems that we are right to go back to your house first."
