Cao Thief

Chapter 167 is not over yet (second update)
Bang bang bang, the sound of fighting, the next day.

After entering Choushi, the shouts of killing at the gate of Beicheng gradually subsided.

Deng Ji straddled his horse calmly, glanced around with cold eyes, and asked calmly: "My lords, would you like to go with this county to enjoy the night?"

Huang Zheng and Pan Yong have decided to stand by Deng Ji's side.

At this time, when they heard that the shouts of killing gradually subsided, the courage of the two of them immediately trembled.

Just now, they made a bet, and they made a bet with their wealth and lives.Why did you choose Deng Ji?They couldn't tell either.

Perhaps it was because of the calmness shown by Deng Ji that they felt confident.

A person who is decisive and able to kill Haixi's tyrant without a sound will definitely not be reckless.Since Deng Ji is not worried, it means that he is sure.Huang Zheng and Pan Yong have been in business all their lives, how can they be courageous people?It's just that they had bad luck before, so they could only hide in the small Haixi County and make small troubles.But now, the two of them have a feeling that their destiny is coming!

Others have complicated expressions.

Some regret, some fear, some anger, and some...

The appearance of all living beings, at this moment, is fully revealed on the faces of everyone.

Wang Cheng looked at Deng Ji quietly, his face was pale, he didn't say a word, he just pursed his lips, and there was a trace of regret in his eyes.

In fact, he has a chance!
He originally had the opportunity to live in peace with Deng Ji, and even improve the lives of those elders in Yuzhou Mountain.

But in the end, he still gave up...

Deng Ji ordered someone to untie the rope on his body, and brought him a horse, and let him sit on it.

A house slave led the horse for him and followed Deng Ji's horse. Most of the rest chose to walk, including Huang Zheng and Pan Yong.

Along the way, before reaching the North City Gate, there was a strong smell of blood.

Wang Cheng's complexion became even uglier, and his eyelids drooped.

But Huang Zheng and Pan Yong unconsciously straightened their backs at this moment.

They believed that after tonight, they would become important figures in Haixi County.

The intuition of the businessmen made them choose Deng Ji.But I didn't expect that the reward would come so fast, and so rich.

However, while they were proud, they were also secretly frightened.

The huge pirate, who had ravaged Guangling for many years, was wiped out overnight?
Deng Ji's ability to talk and laugh at the enemy made them feel extremely respected.

Especially when a group of people came to Beimen Long Street, the bloody eyes and stumps everywhere made everyone's hearts jump.

"what!"

An old man suddenly yelled and almost sat on the ground.

Because he accidentally guessed something right under his feet.Looking down, it was a severed hand, blood was still flowing from the severed part of the palm, and the fingers and palms were white, which looked particularly terrifying.How can the elders who are pampered and pampered on weekdays not feel scared when they see this scene?
Dozens of law enforcement team members are cleaning the long street.

With a whir of the broom, the round beans soaked in blood rolled into the ditch beside the street.Others were busy moving corpses.The mutilated corpses were piled up on the open space of the North City Gate, and the blood flowed continuously along the pile of corpses.The blue-gray ground of the entire North City Gate has now turned dark brown.Under the light of the fire, there is a bit of horror.

"Youxue, is it all over?"

Deng Ji was at the gate of the city, raising his head and shouting.

On the top of the city gate, Puyang Kai's face was revealed.

"Don't worry, the county magistrate, it's all over... Youxue was a little sleepy, so he fell asleep.

For tonight's matter, he has not rested for many days.Let him sleep well, there are still many things to do after dawn. "

The instigator of this incident, could it be Cao Peng?
The speaker has no intention, the listener has the heart.

Huang Zheng, Pan Yong and other people who had dealings with Cao Peng heard Puyang Kai's words, and then looked at Deng Ji's expression, they seemed to be aware of it.

Recalling the establishment of the guild when Cao Peng was in the Feiyang Pavilion, his understatement made the heads of the nine major guilds bow their heads.

Huang Zheng and Pan Yong looked at each other and suddenly laughed!

Perhaps, in this Haixi County, the most terrifying person is not Deng Ji, but Cao Youxue, who is known as the No. [-] yamen in Haixi.

I knew it was no ordinary kid.

Now it seems that he is not only unusual, but also a ruthless and thoughtful person.

Such a person can only befriend, but not offend.

Having been in business for so many years, what kind of person would it be?Huang Zheng and Pan Yong could still see a thing or two.Although Cao Peng is now only an aide, working beside Deng Ji.But Cao Peng's future must be bigger and more immeasurable than Deng Ji's...

Heroes know when they have not made a fortune!
The two looked at each other, and both saw the same content in each other's eyes.

————————————————————————

Its daybreak!
Haixi people walked out of their homes one by one.

The shouts of killing at the North City Gate last night made them shudder.

I thought that the pirates would raid the county.Unexpectedly, it didn't take long before I heard members of the law enforcement team shouting along the street, not allowing the people to leave the house, otherwise life and death will matter.

Could it be that the pirates lost?
With doubts and excitement at the same time, the people of Haixi spent a long night.

But when they walked out of the house, the town of Haixi County had changed.

Nearly a thousand corpses were piled up under the gate of the North City Gate.

More than 1000 pirates squatted at the root of the city wall, and were trapped one by one by ropes.

In front of them, there was a row of burnt out bonfire remnants.Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of soldiers, the thousand or so pirates remained motionless.

Downstairs of the city gate, there is also a flagpole, about as high as the gate tower.

There was a dead body hanging from the flagpole, and anyone with sharp eyes could recognize the origin of the dead body at a glance.

"It's Xuezhou!"

"Wrong, this is not Xuezhou, but the handsome yellow scarf of Yuzhou Mountain, Guan Hai."

"Guan Hai?"

The person guarding the flagpole said: "Xuezhou has someone else. This Guan Hai was originally the Yellow Turban of Qingzhou, and he led his troops to besiege Beihai. Later, he lost, and his whereabouts were unknown. I didn't expect to defect to Xuezhou. But don't worry, Xuezhou will also He was caught and is being held in the county government jail."

For a moment, the people of Haixi were stunned!
Suddenly, someone shouted loudly: "Magistrate Deng is mighty!"

"Magistrate Deng is mighty..."

The voices were originally very small, but they quickly gathered together and echoed over the city gate.

How many years has it been?

Since the appearance of pirates like Yuzhou Mountain, Haixi County has never been peaceful.Don't the Hercynians hate them?hatred!He gritted his teeth in hatred.

When the pirates first came out, they also thought about destroying these pirates.

But in the blink of an eye, several years have passed!

Pirates are still rampant, and the county magistrate of Haixi has replaced many people.

Later, Haixi simply became a deserted place that no one cares about.Bandits are rampant, bullies are rampant, laws are gradually disappearing, and the government has become a joke, no one wants to believe it.Disappointed again and again, Haixi people gradually become insensitive and no longer care about the things around them.When Deng Ji and his party came to Haixi, many of them were even thinking of watching a joke...

Unexpectedly, Deng Ji actually eradicated the pirates without making a sound?
A long-lost wonderful feeling came to my heart again.

One person shouts, thousands of people respond, thousands of people respond, the whole city cheers...

Sitting in the county government office, Deng Ji also had a bright smile on his face.

"Afu, what's wrong with you?"

Deng Ji found that everyone was very happy, only Cao Peng was in the hall, gnashing his teeth, as if he was competing with himself.

"I'm fine!"

Cao Peng replied angrily.

But I couldn't help cursing again in my heart: Luo Da fool, Luo Da fool, you are so fucking harmful...

When he learned that the pirate leader who was shot by Feng Chao was actually called Guan Hai, he couldn't help being stunned.

Guan Hai, that is also a remarkable character.

In the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he once led the Yellow Turban Army to besiege Beihai, which led to the plot of Tai Shici breaking out of the siege and asking Liu Bei for help.

However, in the Romance, Guan Hai fought dozens of rounds with Guan Erye, and was later beheaded by Guan Erye.

Who is Guan Erye?

That is the famous martial saint in later generations!
It is said that a statue of him was enshrined in the police station in Hong Kong.

Except for Huang Zhong and a few others who fought against Guan Erye later, almost all of them were put under his horse by him.

And Guan Hai could fight Guan Erye for dozens of rounds?

No matter how bad it is, it can still be regarded as a calf... Unexpectedly, this guy did not die, but instead fled to Liyuzhou Mountain and became the second in command.

In fact, when Wang Cheng was in Haixi, Guan Hai was basically in charge of Yuzhou Mountain.

Such a calf died under the arrow of the unknown Feng Chao...

If I had known that this guy was Guan Hai, I would have caught him alive.You can at least give it a try and see if you can recruit it.

It's a good choice if you can.

Thinking of this, Cao Peng couldn't help but sighed and shook his head vigorously.

Deng Ji couldn't help laughing!
Regarding this brother-in-law, Deng Ji couldn't say a word.

Sometimes it looks very confused and naive, but sometimes it is scheming, even comparable to those counselors in Duke Cao's mansion.

Is it really a gift from God?
Deng Ji has never really believed in the Taoist priest teaching Cao Peng.

But now, he seems to believe it... If it wasn't for Xiu's immortal technique, how could he have such an outstanding strategy?

Although he has heard Guo Jia and others for a long time, it is considered exhaustive, but after all, he has never really learned.Guo Jia and those people stand on a high ground, which Deng Ji can understand now.On the contrary, Cao Peng...was very close to him, right next to him, which made Deng Ji feel inexplicably shocked.

"Ah Fu, how did you guess..."

"Actually, I have always been skeptical about Wang Cheng."

"Oh?"

"Brother-in-law, I told you before that he was too enthusiastic, too enthusiastic.

There is a saying in Zhongyang Mountain: If things are abnormal, there must be demons.Wang Cheng's biggest flaw lies in his enthusiasm and enthusiasm, which makes me a little strange.Logically speaking, he doesn't have much hatred with the pirates, so why does he encourage us again and again?

That day, Feng Chao and I met him by the lotus pond.

He said a lot of emotions, which aroused my attention... because at that time, there was absolutely no need for him to say those words to me.There are all kinds of people with different preferences, so why did he explain to me why he went to the lotus pond?So, I ordered Feng Chao to keep an eye on him. "

Pu Yangkai nodded, "At the time, I thought that Youxue was making a fuss out of a molehill."

"Yes, if it were me, I would definitely not have such doubts."

Bu Zhi and Dai Gan were ordered to defend the southern city last night, so they did not take part in the battle and were only responsible for cleaning up the battlefield.

The two of them didn't look too tired, they looked at Cao Peng with a smile, with admiration in their eyes.

"Later, Feng Chao discovered that the reason why Wang Cheng came to the lotus pond was actually to deliver news." Cao Peng said, picking up a bamboo tube from the case in front of him, shaking it, "he hid the bamboo tube in the lotus pond by the lotus pond. Inside a hollow willow tree, someone will come and take it away.

I found this bamboo tube and learned that someone wanted Wang Cheng to raid Haixi, so I made such a fuss. "

"Who?"

Bu Zhi suddenly asked.

Cao Peng took a deep breath and looked at Deng Ji.

"Brother-in-law, the reason why this pirate raided Haixi is because we threatened the interests of some people.

If it is said that Wang Cheng is hostile to us, it is because we may affect his plan, then the person who secretly ordered Wang Cheng..."

He shook the bamboo tube and sneered, "He's worried that we'll ruin his event."

"Oh?"

"Brother-in-law, this matter is not over yet, it is not over yet."

"Is it not over yet?"

Deng Ji frowned upon hearing this.

The joy of eradicating the pirates seemed to disappear all of a sudden.

He pursed his lips and tapped his fingers on the table rapidly. After a while, he said softly, "Could there be any trouble?"

"of course."

Cao Peng stood up while talking.

"And I reckon this trouble will come soon."

"You mean..."

Cao Peng took a deep breath and stood up, "Wang Cheng raided Haixi, to put it bluntly, for the legendary treasure of the Haixi Marquis. The reason why he stayed in Haixi County was to kiss Tong Town. Although I It’s still not clear what is the relationship between the Fish Kiss Copper Town and the treasure, but... brother-in-law, do you still remember that I asked you to visit Mai Juwei, the bear? I think I already know where the treasure is buried.”

"what!"

Deng Ji and the others were taken aback, and all of a sudden they stood up.

Cao Peng smiled and said: "Hu Ban, go to the prison and bring Wang Mai out. He has spent so much effort, I will let him see it with his own eyes."

"Afu, what are you doing?"

"I'll take everyone to find the treasure..."

Cao Peng's words made Deng Ji and the others change their faces.

They looked at each other and were about to speak when they suddenly heard a commotion from outside the county government office.

Immediately after, someone shouted loudly: "Guangling, Governor Chen has arrived!"

Cao Peng couldn't help laughing when he heard this.

"Brother-in-law, they came just in time. Let's settle all the suspicious cases that have been going on for many years together today."

After speaking, Cao Peng made way sideways.

Deng Ji hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and walked out of the yamen hall.
