Kaifeng Monster

Chapter 60
Hearing an exclamation, a naked woman with loose long hair turned over and sat up, and when she saw the person standing in front of the tent, she was even more ashamed.Yang Jian snorted coldly, and slammed the curtain on her body, the woman hurriedly wrapped the curtain around her body, and retreated nonuo.

Yang Jian stared at the woman coldly, but said to Zhuchang: "Zhuchang, restrain yourself."

Hub Chang lazily sat up and put on his cloak: "It's not the first time, why get so angry?"

Yang Jian sneered: "If Duanmu isn't involved, it won't matter to me if it happens a few more times."

Zhuchang laughed: "Duanmu is not such a stingy person."

"Really? Or do I let her in?"

While speaking, Guo lifted his feet outward.Zhu Chang's complexion changed, and he said angrily, "Yang Jian!"

Yang Jian could clearly hear the wind coming and going behind him, without turning his head, his wrists were turned like a knife, and the edges of his palms were cut downwards.In desperation, Zhu Chang endured all the pain, and clamped Yang Jian's arm from his armpit with his other hand.Yang Jian let him rule him, and laughed long and loudly. When Huban looked out of the tent, he saw the bright day, how could there be half a person?Knowing that he was being teased by Yang Jian, he scolded Yang Jian angrily, pushed Yang Jian away, put on his clothes, at this moment Fang Jue's back felt cold, and most of him was wet with sweat.

Yang Jian couldn't stop laughing: "It scares you like this just because you are famous. It's true that one thing is one thing. Zhuchang, when the prime minister agrees to your marriage proposal, I think those concubines who accompanied you will be sent away." Let's go." After a pause, he continued: "Speaking seriously, you know what happened at Duanmu in the morning?"

Zhu Chang nodded: "I heard that Yin Shang's espionage has become more and more arrogant. He usually only inquired about the news, but this time he actually took several lives. It can be seen that Chao Ge became more and more concerned about the battle of Chongcheng."

Yang Jian said: "That's natural. After Chongcheng, Chaoge seems to have lost his left and right arm. Earlier today, the spies we placed in Chaoge sent back news that there was a change in Fei Zhong's side."

Zhu Chang said with great interest, "Oh? Let's hear it."

"I heard that a bunch of extraordinary people have been summoned... If you can't beat them obviously, you have to resort to some shady methods."

"Do you want to play some tricks to assassinate the prime minister?"

Yang Jian nodded: "This time is slightly different. I heard that among the people Fei Zhong wants to marry, you and I are among them."

"Fei Zhong wants to kill the general?"

"There are no generals in the army, just like a group of dragons without a leader. Recently, there are many generals rushing to help, but few who are truly alone. Today, Gao Bojian and others are descendants of Yin merchants. They are greedy for life and afraid of death, and their strength is barely enough. Counting on him to conquer the city? You have won the battle card of Chongcheng, which is the number one thorn in the flesh. The prime minister ordered us, the leader, to be especially careful. Miscalculation."

Zhu Chang pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you know where the person Fei Zhong sent is now?"

"The nearest city is Anyi."

Zhuchang fell to his feet and sighed: "At the beginning, I didn't look down on Anyi. When I went around the city, I didn't even leave the guard behind. There was such a hidden danger for nothing. In my opinion, most of the secret operations that harmed the soldiers of Duanmu Camp were also hidden in the city. There."

Yang Jian laughed: "I just came from Duanmu, and she said the same thing."

"How is she now? Isn't she very angry for what happened in the morning?"

Yang Jian smiled wryly: "No, if I hadn't stopped her, I'm afraid the soldiers would have arrived in Anyi by now. She spoke very loudly, and she didn't need to go door-to-door to search for anything, just piled firewood around the city of Anyi, Burn the fire, what kind of spies work carefully, and all go to Yan Luo."

Hubchang didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "She knew it wouldn't work, so she insisted on saying harsh words. It's good to bluff people. Then how did it end? Who was sent to Anyi?"

"Gao Bojian. He wants to show his face in front of the prime minister, and he is eager to make contributions. At the same time, he wants to please Duanmu, and he will give an explanation to the soldiers who died tragically in the Duanmu camp."

Changing the hub this time sneered.

"Him? It's not enough to succeed, but it's more than failure. He is greedy for money and lust, even commits murder. Thank God if there are no mistakes, and nothing else."

"Duanmu said the same thing. To be safe, he sent two vice-commanders to go with Gao Bojian. Anyway, Anyi is not far away. Whenever there is an emergency, there is always time to respond by raising flags during the day and carrying lanterns at night. of."

Zhan Zhao sleeps until noon and wakes up. When he wakes up, although the rain is not as heavy as before going to sleep, it is still pattering, which disturbs people's mood for no reason.

Not long after he got up, a servant came to wash him up, and then led Zhan Zhao to the main hall, but brothers Qi Mudian and Qi Muding had already prepared food and drinks for him.Zhan Zhao didn't refuse, he gave way a little and pushed the cup to the table. Just now he toasted, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a young woman coming by the door. She had a delicate face, her hair was as black as ink, and she wore a round neck, narrow long sleeves and long purple cloud patterns. clothes, a ribbon around the waist, and shoes with wooden soles and hemp surfaces.Firstly, the Shang clothes are different from the Song clothes, and secondly, the girl looked unfamiliar, Zhan Zhao unconsciously took a second look.

Qi Mu Dian laughed and said, "Yi Luo, why don't you come over and offer a wine to the martyr Zhan?"

It was only then that Zhan Zhao realized that this woman was Qi Mu Yiluo whom he had rescued. She was unkempt and unremarkable at first, but after a little grooming, she turned out to be a rare Mingjuan.

Qi Mu Yiluo didn't put on any pretense, he came forward generously, first saluted Zhan Zhao, and then offered a noble wine.Zhan Zhao smiled and nodded, saluting the Qimu brothers, the wine was just touching his lips, when he suddenly heard the sound of a copper cymbal outside, Zhan Zhao was slightly startled, when he looked out, he saw the young man named Qi Ze from the morning , came in out of breath, panting: "Old Master, Gao Bojian's soldiers are coming towards Anyi."

Qi Mudian's face changed, he winked with Qi Muding, ignored Zhan Zhao, and both of them hurried out the door.Zhan Zhao hesitated for a moment, not knowing whether to follow or not, but Qi Mu Yiluo thought about Zhan Zhao's heart, and said softly: "Zhan Yishi, let's follow and see."

The city of Anyi is small, and there are hopeful towers at all four corners of the city wall. For larger households, you can see the outside world from the eaves of your own house.Zhan Zhao followed Qi Mu Yiluo up to the eaves, and he could see smoke and dust rising from a distance, and a large flag cloak could be vaguely seen rolling back and forth. After a little calculation, there seemed to be as many as a hundred of the leading ten or so cavalry and infantry , when I looked around again, there was a crowd of people on the turret, and they were all the people of Anyi who had heard the news, their faces were panicked, and they were at a loss.

Qi Mu Dian frowned, and whispered to Qi Mu Ding: "In your opinion, what happened in the morning?"

Qi Muding snorted, as a tacit consent, paused and said: "What are you afraid of, I'm so anxious, anyway, there is a deadly person here."

While speaking, his gaze wandered towards Zhan Zhao intentionally or unintentionally.

Qi Mu Dian was afraid that Zhan Zhao would be suspicious, so he didn't look at him, but lowered his voice a lot: "That's a rare expert, it would be a pity to die like this, if he can be used by me..."

Qi Mu Ding hummed: "Take one step and watch one step. Who knows what kind of chess Gao Bojian is playing."

Gao Bojian's soldiers will be divided into two groups, one way will besiege the entrance of the outer city of Anyi, and the other way will enter the city, breaking into the house aggressively, watching the suspicious young and strong man, and escorting the generals out.For a while, chickens flew and dogs barked, women cried and babies wept, and panic swept the whole city.

Qimu's house was located in the middle of the street, and the soldiers who searched the house couldn't get through for a while, but the crying became louder and louder.Qi Mudian ordered Qi Ze to close the door, and calmly returned to the hall to sit idle.After a while, even the voices shouting and drinking from outside could be clearly heard, just a woman crying and dodging and a soldier's obscene words came.Zhan Zhao's complexion changed, he stood up abruptly, took two steps and forced himself down again, and said to Qi Mu Dian: "Mr. Qi Mu, isn't it the generals of Xiqi who searched the house outside? They say that the army of King Wu Su practice benevolence and righteousness, why..."

Before the words were finished, there was a bang, and the door of the gate was rushed open.More than a dozen soldiers with halberds and horizontal knives rushed in, yelling, "Hand over the thief who killed Xiqi's soldiers!"

Qi Mu Dian sat still, but Qi Mu Ding limped up to meet him on crutches, and said with an apologetic smile: "Master, you have to look carefully, our Qi Mu family is a big family in Anyi, and we have always kept ourselves safe, so we dare not do anything. It's about harboring thieves."

While speaking, Qi Ze had brought over a plate of copper shells and scattered copper pieces.The leader of the soldiers grabbed a fistful and stuffed it into his arms, and all the people behind surrounded each other, pushing each other, and half of the copper shells on the plate fell to the ground.So all the soldiers scrambled to be the first, lying on the ground and scrambling endlessly, like pigs fighting for food.

The leader of the soldiers swept around again, and was planning to turn around, but unfortunately, his eyes fell on Qi Mu Yiluo.

Qi Mu Yiluo's complexion changed slightly, and he quietly avoided Zhan Zhao.

The soldier had an obscene smile in his eyes, came over with a salivating face, looked around Qi Mu Yiluo up and down, left and right, laughed dryly, then turned his face and waved to the soldiers he was leading: "Let's go! "

Zhan Zhao took two steps down the steps, watched the gang go away, his eyes gradually became darker, Erqing slowly turned around to look at Qi Mu Yiluo, and there was something in his words: "Miss Yiluo, sleep well tonight , close the door."

Qi Mu Yiluo was startled, but immediately understood, and nodded slightly.

Turning back to the group of soldiers, after walking for a while, the leader stopped, turned around and looked at the door of Qimu's house, and said with a dry smile: "The girl in that family is quite pretty, the general probably likes it."

Someone next to him wondered: "How come there are beautiful women in his family? I didn't see it."

The man spat at him: "Your eyes are almost filled with copper shells, what can you see? If you want me to say, tonight, I simply got a slap in the face and stole that bitch to present to the general." ... In the future, when the brothers are in the camp, don't you want to say that the wind will come and the rain will rain?"

What he said made a group of people ready to move, but a timid one said timidly: "This is not good. I heard that Jiang Ziya is very strict with his subordinates, and he has never allowed such messy activities. If it is just us, it will be fine. Now the camp is still there. There are two vice-commanders of the Duanmu battalion, if they find out and file a complaint, the general will not look good."

The man sneered and said, "As long as your movements are neat and your hands and feet are clean, how would the two deputy commanders know about this? Besides, once things are done, the general will follow suit and take that girl The concubines who accompanied the army, what can others say? The generals of the Xiqi Army, apart from Yang Jian who practiced Taoism, now have Deng Chanyu among the grandsons of the earth, and there are even groups of concubines in Zhuchang, but our general will accept only one? No matter how domineering the people in Duanmuying are, they can't control them so wide, can they?"

Tonight's Anyi is a bit different than usual, all because the Xiqi army finally stationed, tung oil torches were set up at the city gate and watchtower.Under the cover of the flames, the silhouettes of night soldiers with knives and halberds could be vaguely seen.

The voices outside can still be called a turmoil, but the inner city is dead silent——Anyi is a city descended by the Yin Shang, and the people in the city are more or less afraid of the Xiqi Army, so every household turns off the lights early at the same time, but they feel uneasy Uncertain, it is not known whether the pillow is safe or not.

Logically speaking, at this time, there should never be anyone on the main street of Anyi.

Yu Du squinted his eyes and looked at the black shadow for a long time: sneaky, hiding at the corner at the end of the main street, stretching his neck to look around from time to time, as weird as possible.

Could it be... the secret work of Yin Shang?
It's okay not to think about it, but once it arises, I can't get rid of it no matter what.Yu Du frowned, holding the handle of the knife at his waist with one hand, and quietly walked around behind the man from the side alley that only allowed one person to pass. He cut back behind him and pushed him again, pushing the man down on the main street.

"Ahh..." The man let out a short cry of pain. He was about to turn over and sit up, but he looked up at Yu Du, and then sat down again in fright, stammering: "Yu, Vice President Yu..."
