Emperor Kangxi: The First Rule of the Palace

Chapter 51
Shi Longbiao laughed loudly, walked over slowly on the winding path of the stone bridge, stood on the stone slab at the head of the bridge, bowed and asked: "Sir, my shop is harboring felons ordered by the imperial court. I don't know who the witnesses are and where are the physical evidences? Can someone search the shop?" Is there a Shuntian Mansion Fire Card?"

Of course these are nonexistent.Namo was so angry that his eyes were burning, and he cursed: "Old bastard, who is going to fight with you! Only if you catch you will you know how many eyes Lord Ma has!" As he said, he stretched out his palm and hit Shi Longbiao.I thought to myself, this palm strike will not kill you, but also make you roll around and beg for mercy!Unexpectedly, Shi Longbiao would not evade, he still said slowly: "Even if the big nephew comes to arrest people, he must make clear the edict, this is the rule!"Namo only said the words "You are not worthy..." and felt that his five fingers were touching pig iron, and the pain went straight to the marrow. He gritted his teeth and shook his hands and shouted loudly: "This old man has witchcraft!"

Seeing that Nemo suffered a loss, several soldiers swung their knives and rushed forward, but just as their heels stood still, three or four people had already been pushed into the pool by Shi Longbiao.While fiddling with his hands, he said with a smile: "It's not that the little old man has demon skills, it's that everyone's kung fu can't master it! You have neither imperial orders nor Shuntian mansion defenses, so the little old man can only be regarded as a thief. In broad daylight How can you allow thieves to run wild here?" Seeing that no one dared to come forward again, he rubbed his hands and said "offended", then he turned around and retreated.

Murima was furious, and rushed over in person, thrust her sword straight at Shi Longbiao's back.Seeing that he was about to be stabbed, Wu Ciyou, who was hiding behind the rockery, had never seen such a dangerous scene before, and shouted in fright: "Be careful!" and was pushed down by Mu Zixu.Shi Longbiao had already heard Jianfeng, he knew that Murima was following closely, and wanted to lure him to Qiaoxin and catch him backhanded.Hearing Wu Ciyou's loud cry, he thought something had happened, he was startled, a wind swayed the willow, he pulled out a soft golden whip and coiled it around Murima's waist.Murima saw that the whip head was like a snake, coming at it in a twist and turn, without a certain direction. She jumped back in shock, but she couldn't hide her body, her leg was tightly coiled, and she swung the knife back to chop. , the golden whip was so flexible that it couldn't stop chopping for a while.Shi Longbiao didn't allow him to slash any more, he took a leap and kicked, Murima's sword flew out of his hand, and with another swipe, he put Murima upside down on his back, walked with every step, and reached the center of the stone bridge in the blink of an eye .

Namo was shocked immediately, ignoring the pain in his hand, he rushed forward with a knife in his left hand.Shi Longbiao held a whip in one hand, and grabbed Murima's other leg with the other. Murima was still scratching between his legs with his head down.Although Shi Longbiao knew that someone was coming from behind, he couldn't spare his hands to deal with it, so he shouted loudly: "Zixu, come and give me a hand!"

Mu Zixu and Stubborn Donkey guarded the north bridgehead of the rockery to prevent surprise attacks.Hearing Shi Longbiao calling for help, Mu Zixu hurriedly said: "Third Brother, look at this side!" He flew over here with a few strides.Shi Longbiao was overjoyed when he saw him coming, and shouted: "Go on!" He threw Murima over in the air, and the back of Murima's head happened to touch a rock.
Shi Longbiao turned around, saw Nemo chasing him, and scolded with a smile: "Why, do you want to drink some water?" He stomped his foot, and the stone bridge was built dry, and the pillar fell down immediately, "Boom "It collapsed with a sound.Namo shouted: "Not good!" He had already taken a sip of water.Unexpectedly, Shi Longbiao exerted too much force, even the pier he was standing on couldn't bear it, and he also fell into the pool.

The soldiers watching the battle from the shore were originally afraid to shoot arrows because Shi Longbiao was carrying Murima on his back, and later he fought with Namo.At this time, seeing the two of them falling into the water and struggling each other, Crooked Tiger shouted: "Don't shoot the arrow yet!" Two soldiers who knew how to swim jumped into the water with a plop to meet Nemo.The rest of the soldiers drew their bows and shot arrows at Shi Longbiao in the pool.Poor hero, he was shot like a hedgehog all over his body.

Seeing this miserable scene, Wu Ciyou behind the rockery burst into tears, straightened up and shouted loudly: "Don't you want me? I'll wait for you!" Before he could say a word, He Guizhu behind him rushed over and threw Wu Ciyou squatted down, and cried loudly: "Good second master, you can't do it!" Mu Zixu turned blue with anger, scolded "bastard", and tied Murima tightly with a soft golden whip , put it high on the top of the rockery, and shouted: "Puppets, let's shoot!"

Namo climbed ashore, mad with anger, jumping up and down with red eyes, shouting: "Burn, burn this den of thieves to nothingness!"

The stubborn donkey looked at it for a while, then suddenly had an idea, and said in a low voice: "Second brother, let's tear down this bridge, and hang out with these bastards here!" Mu Zixu said: "Third brother, good idea, let's hang out When it gets dark, the eldest brother will always bring someone to rescue. The stolen gongs and drums can't be beaten, and this kid, Liang Nemo, doesn't dare to stay for long." As the two brothers rushed to the center of the stone bridge, Mu Zixu swung a knife to protect him. The two were killed, and the stubborn donkey stomped and kicked the ground to demolish the bridge.Although the soldiers on the other side shot at arrows like locusts, Mu Zixu swung his saber perfectly round, and the broken arrows and broken feathers crackled and flew all over the sky.

The two retreated while tearing it down, and the stone bridge slabs fell into the water one by one, bubbling and bubbling, until the end, half of the bridge was demolished, the weather was cold and the water was cold, even if they came over!He Guizhu put his hands together and said: "Amitabha!" The stubborn donkey was exhausted.

There was also a look of relief on Wu Ciyou's face.He never understood why Oboi made such a big move on him, and why the shop assistants risked their lives to protect him.Is it just because of the article about enclosing land and chaotic countries?He shook his head, doubts abounded in his heart, but he couldn't figure it out.

The fire started.Crooked Tiger led seven or eight people, from the front shop to the back shop, he set fire to everything that could be ignited.The fire crackled and spit out dark red tongues, making the water in the pool red.Occasionally, bamboo knots were burned in the thick smoke, and with a bang, sparks rushed straight, rising two or three feet high, and pieces of ashes circled like crows above the flames, flying up and down.The common people and tourists in the nearby Erli knew that there was a "military pass" here, and seeing the martial law, they hid far away.Who dares to come to the rescue!
Looking at the blazing flames, He Guizhu thought of his family background, how many people and merchants he had received in his Yuepeng shop in the city!This young master Wu who had no airs of a master invited his friends to have banquets and poems there many times, but he was banned overnight.After finally relying on Mr. Wei's funding, he opened this mountain dwelling here. Seeing that the situation has just come to fruition, he was completely burned by this fire!He felt that his throat was dry and his chest was full, and he wanted to cry but couldn't cry.Holding stones in his hands, he watched in a daze as the fire devoured his property, his heart and soul.Seeing him like this, Wu Ciyou also felt sad, so he came over and stroked his shoulder to comfort him, "Zhu'er, I'm the one who got you into trouble. Don't be sad, the capital city is not where we live. As long as this matter passes safely, you can go south with me." , ask the old lady to give you another place in Nanjing."

When He Guizhu heard this, the two lines burst into tears. Afraid that Wu Ciyou would be sad, he hurriedly wiped away his tears and said with a forced smile, "It's nothing. If the old one doesn't go, the new one won't come. The second master is blessed, wealth and honor are yet to come. ! Thanks to your blessing, Zhu’er may be able to open a bigger one!”

While the two were talking, Murima woke up from a coma on the rock, only to feel that her body was tightly bound, she struggled twice and remained motionless, she raised her face and looked, but there was a forest of soldiers on the other side of the pond, but there was no movement , scolded: "Ne'er! You little bastard! Why don't you attack?"

Namo was also crying on the other side.He brought hundreds of soldiers, and he couldn't even manage such a small earthen shop. He even threw a general to the other party. There was no movement for a long time, and he didn't know whether he was dead or alive. How would he explain to his uncle when he went back now?Hearing that Murima woke up, he felt a little relieved, and replied across the bank with a crying voice: "Third Uncle! Please bear with it for a while, and don't worry! After a while, the raft will be tied up to rescue you, and these bastards will be rescued." Take out my darling and serve you wine to scare you!"

Seeing the conversation between his uncle and nephew, the stubborn donkey came over and kicked Murima on the waist and cursed: "Do you know how Liu Jinbiao's eyes are blind? That's what the master used these two fingers to dig out! "As he said, he picked up the knife and gestured under Murima's neck, "You fucking call again, I will dig out your heart and liver to sacrifice to my master right now!" Murima closed her eyes and did not answer.

Mu Zixu came over and grabbed the stubborn donkey's hand and said, "Brother, this is the meat on the chopping board, why are you angry with him? This is not the time for arguing, let's go over there and discuss an idea." He asked He Guizhu to take a knife Sitting next to Murima to watch, Wu Ciyou and his brothers walked across the rockery and sat on the ground, discussing how to deal with the enemy next.

The three of them sat in silence for a moment, and Mu Zixu said, "Hey! Did the fourth child go out? I thought, he's going to get out alive, and Brother Wei and the others should be here by now." The stubborn donkey snorted. With a sound, he said with a gloomy face: "I'm afraid they would have thought about this a long time ago, and they would fight with elder brother in the city, which would be troublesome. Otherwise, if the fourth brother can't deliver the letter, he will It’s here. The fire they set off just now, can’t you see it in the city?” Wu Ciyou interjected and said, “Now that their commander is in our hands, I hope they don’t dare to attack by force!” The stubborn donkey smiled wryly: "Mr. Wu, what if they break the vase to catch mice?" Wu Ciyou said with a smile, "Are we so valuable?"
