Landlord of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 416 Undercurrent (3)

Outside Shantianzhuang, Yang Cheng led more than a hundred people to surround the dozens of men in black.Those men in black didn't dare to do anything, because Yang Cheng's men were all holding crossbow arrows, and they would become hedgehogs with a flick of their fingers.

Yang Cheng stepped forward and said, "Who is planning to do something wrong in my Shantianzhuang?"

A hoarse voice came from inside: "As entrusted by others, in matters of loyalty, kill or cut, it's up to you."

How could Yang Cheng listen to his provocative method, sneered and said: "Entrusted by others, hehe, entrusted by whom?"

Xu Qing had told Yang Cheng before that if he found the person behind it outside, he must not kill him, because the person behind it was most likely an official of the imperial court.Once killed, this black and white will really be reversed.

The hoarse voice sounded again: "You know, people in our industry will naturally not leak out the owner. You are also in this industry. How many confessions have you seen?"

Yang Cheng snorted and said: "A lot, there are really not many who have not yet been accounted for in my hands."

Yang Cheng's words were resounding, the hoarse voice was obviously stagnant, and then he replied: "That means there is no need to discuss? Well, do you know that at this moment, 200 of my men have already stormed the gate of Xu Mansion? "

"No, no, they didn't attack..." Yang Cheng raised his hand: "I let them in, let me shoot arrows at their feet!"

"Whoosh whoosh!"

"Protect the lord!"

More than a hundred arrows shot past, those men in black didn't panic, took out an arm hook from their waist with one hand, and wielded a knife with the other hand, they just blocked these arrows, only a few people were shot to death.Before Yang Cheng could order to encircle them, the men in black saw a loophole in the encirclement, and rushed out protecting one of them with all their might.

Yang Cheng's face turned cold, making people chase after him.There are many adults in Yang and few people on the opposite side, and the combat effectiveness of each individual soldier is comparable.He chased after him unhurriedly, and if someone fell behind, he would knock him down with a stick.Chasing and chasing, Yang Cheng was not only not tired, but at some point, he brought the horses.After a while, Yang Cheng's side turned into cavalry, while the people on the other side were walking in the field on foot.

Two legs, of course, can't walk on four legs. After fleeing for a long time, the men in black were beaten by Yang Cheng one after another, leaving only seven or eight people lying on the ground.When Yang Cheng saw it, he shouted: "Don't give up, hurry up and surrender!"

"Hahaha," one of them laughed loudly: "Xu Qing's subordinates are just extraordinary. Instead of saving their master, they came to chase us instead. That's fine, I fell into your hands today. But don't even think about it." , caught alive haha."

Yang Cheng saw that those people raised their heads, and then fell silent.They sent people over to look, and it turned out that they hid the poison in their teeth, and they could kill themselves with a little force.Looking at the people who were knocked out before, they were all pale, their lips were black, and they had committed suicide by swallowing poison on the way.Yang Cheng sighed, at this moment, he suddenly saw hundreds of people in the distance, and they quickly surrounded him, surrounding him, the hundreds of cavalrymen, in one fell swoop.

A young general came out of it, and rode up to Yang Cheng with wide eyes and stared at him, he rode up to Yang Cheng and drank: "Bold thief, dare to harass the court ministers at the feet of the emperor, his crime should be punished by the nine clans!"

Yang Cheng hurriedly returned: "I am the general of Mr. Xu's family. I came here this time to expel the culprits who harmed Mr. Xu."

The young general hesitated and said, "How can you prove it?"

Yang Cheng thought, fortunately Xu Qingzao was prepared, at this moment he took out a scabbard from his arms and threw it into the young general's hand.This scabbard is the scabbard of Qinghong Sword, gifted by the emperor, the young general knew it at the first sight, and said to Yang Cheng, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect Mr. Xu's family to be so rich, and even the family members can ride horses."

Yang Cheng replied: "I'm ashamed, but I couldn't catch any alive ones, and let them all die."

The young general said meaningfully: "Brother Nian just do his best, sometimes death saves a lot of trouble than living."

Yang Cheng nodded, and asked again: "Who are you?"

The young general explained: "We are here to protect Mr. Xu by the order of the Holy Majesty. Don't be alarmed, brother Nian, the holy order is here." The young general threw an imperial edict to Yang Cheng.

Yang Cheng took a look and ordered his subordinates to tidy up the corpses. After checking the last few people, he found that they were all unknown people.Could it be that the people behind that didn't come to the show at all?Thinking about it, Yang Cheng extended another invitation to the young general.Xu Qing has already arranged things in Shantianzhuang, but Yang Cheng is still a little worried.With this team of Dragon Guards, there is no doubt that they will win.

On the way, Yang Cheng asked the young general to see if he could learn anything from him.But the young general kept his mouth shut and refused to talk about the matter in front of him. Instead, he had the idea of ​​spying on Yang Cheng's side and abilities.Yang Cheng checked the corpse all the way back, and at the end, he was suddenly startled.

No, there seems to be one less person.

Yang Cheng has a skill. He can count the number of enemies at a glance and memorize them by heart. Of course, there are too many people, and there will be times when he is inaccurate.But with the number of people within a hundred, Yang Cheng didn't believe that he would make a mistake, there must be one person who survived.

But where did it go wrong?

No, when I started shooting arrows, I shot a few people to death. At that time, I didn't have time to see if they were really dead.It must be that way, at the very beginning, the mastermind behind the scenes was hidden.

"Alas, it fell short!"

Yang Cheng beat his feet and his chest. At this time, a member of the underground river whispered in Yang Cheng's ear: "Brother Yang, although these people are dead, the shoes they wear seem to be from the same place. It seems that they are from the army. The shoes in the middle." Yang Cheng was overjoyed, and quietly instructed him to sort it out and find out which army it belonged to.

At this time, Yang Cheng, who was standing outside Shantianzhuang, suddenly heard a loud noise—"bang", Yang Cheng was in a bad mood, as Xu Qing had ordered before, as long as he heard this loud noise, it meant that something happened at home.Yang Cheng said to the young general: "This general, we must hurry to save Mr. Xu!"

"Brother Nian just lead the way!"

When they arrived at Shantian Village, Xu Qing came out to welcome him, and said to Yang Cheng, "I'm fine, you hurry up and tie up the people inside, and get rid of the suicides on them."

Yang Cheng looked at Xu Qing, and asked in disbelief: "My lord, what happened to that loud noise just now?"

Xu Qing replied angrily: "A little bastard escaped so many traps and ran into my room. Just kidding, I punched him right across the eye."

Yang Cheng nodded and went away, the young general cupped his hands to Xu Qing and said: "Master Xu is indeed wise and brave. At first I heard that Master Xu could defeat Hanhai Khan, the number one master in the grassland, and I was a little unbelieving."

Xu Qing asked: "You are?"

The young general clasped his hands and replied: "Your Majesty will be guarding you with swords, Zhanpeng..."

Xu Qing brushed off his clothes and said, "So, the emperor sent you?"

"I'm really ashamed, it's too late in the future."
