Detective Di Renjie's legend of Wu Dynasty

Chapter 751 The Wind Rider

The guards in front of the gate of the Shanjin Bureau are heavily guarded, and the heavily armed prison guards and guards are arranged in echelons, guarding the passage from Chengfumen to the Shanjin Bureau like iron barrels.

The lights in Fan Zhufang were brightly lit, and the Shanjin Bureau and the bureaucrats gathered here. It seemed that everyone had been waiting for a long time.

On the Qiaolou of Chengfu Gate, the ringing bell sounded at midnight, and everyone discussed softly: "It's already midnight, why hasn't the silver car arrived yet?"

"That's right, I've been waiting for an hour. I really don't understand why Mr. Sha wants everyone in the game to gather here and wait. Look, even the coachman and handyman have come."

"The Shanjin Bureau has to pick up the silver carts from the treasury almost every month. It seems that it has never seen such a battle."

"It's really weird."

Amidst the discussions, the hall door opened, and Shar Khan walked in quickly.

Everyone hurriedly stopped discussing and bowed in salute.

Shar Khan nodded: "Just received the express report, the silver car will be here soon. Everyone is ready to welcome!"

With the wheels rolling and the sound of hooves thundering, the silver cart escorted by the Nanya Imperial Army to the treasury came slowly.

The door of the Shanjin Bureau burst open, and the convoy drove in slowly.

The imperial guards escorted the silver car and parked it in front of the gate of Fan Zhufang.

Shar Khan led his palms to meet the door and stood on the steps.

The treasury officer who was in charge of escorting the silver carts jumped off his horse, stepped forward quickly, bowed and said, "Lord Sha, the gold and silver used for making utensils have been found!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand behind him, and the imperial guards came quickly carrying eleven wooden boxes filled with gold and silver.

The treasury officer said: "Lord Sha, here are ten boxes of silver, 100 million taels. One box of gold, 10 taels. Will it be transported to the material warehouse of the Shanjin Bureau, and my lord will check it?"

Shar Khan smiled and said, "No need, just hand over here."

The treasury officer was stunned and said, "This...my lord, this is against the regulations!"

Shar Khan said: "It takes several hours to transport the material into and out of the warehouse. Now the time is tight, and the work must start immediately after the handover."

The treasury officer hesitated and said: "Then... well, since Mr. Sha said so, let's do it!"

He waved at the guards behind him, who put eleven wooden boxes on the ground and opened the lids.

Shar Khan rushed back and waved his hands, and the two palm guards stepped forward quickly, opened the lid of the box, inspected it, and replied, "My lord, it's all right."

Shar Khan nodded and said to the treasury officer, "Sign the treasury slip, you can go back."

The treasury officer hesitated and said: "Master Sha, this, can this be done, just in case..."

Shar Khan smiled slightly and said, "There is never a mistake in withdrawing gold and silver from the warehouse. I absolutely believe in this."

The treasury officer swallowed and nodded, "Yes."

He opened the warehouse slip in his hand and handed it forward, "Please sign for it, sir."

Shar Khan nodded, signed his name, pressed his fingerprints, and handed back the warehouse receipt.

The treasurer looked at the silver box and said, "Is the silver box here?"

Sharhan smiled and said, "Don't worry, you go."

The treasury officer nodded, got on his horse, and led a group of forbidden troops to gallop away.

The door of the Shanjin Bureau slammed shut.

Shar Khan let out a long breath, and the palm beside him said: "Let the handyman carry the silver box into Fan Zhufang?"

Sharhan nodded.

Two palm guards walked quickly towards Fan Zhufang, suddenly, a cold light flashed in the darkness, and a palm guard's head flew out with a marked blood arrow. Formed into a ball of light and shadow, with a "bang", all sounds stopped.

The haze also disappeared in an instant.

The two palm holders had turned into bones, and they were scattered on the ground with a "crash".

A man in a black cloak slowly came out of the darkness, the scimitar in his hand reflected a gloomy light.

Shar Khan opened his mouth wide, but could not make a sound.

The palm guard behind him was completely stunned, and his whole body shook into a ball like sifting chaff.

The black cloak walked slowly in front of Shar Khan and raised the scimitar.

Sharhan's eyes were full of fear.

All the staff members of the Shanjin Bureau were discussing in low voices in the workshop, suddenly, there was a scream from outside the door, which was extremely shrill in the quiet night.

Everyone was taken aback, Qiqi turned their heads and looked out.

It was too late to say it, but it was fast at that time, with a few loud "bang bang bang", the gate of Fan Zhufang was closed.

All the officials screamed.Almost at the same time, the lights in the hall were suddenly extinguished, and the inside of the workshop could not be seen, and there was a sudden chaos.

Black shadows sprang out from the beams and under the casting platform like lightning, and rushed into the staff. A cold mist rose in Fan Zhufang. In an instant, people's heads rolled and flesh and blood splattered...

The massacre has begun!

There were bursts of shrill screams in the quiet night.

The captain of the Imperial Guard guarding the gate listened attentively, and a sergeant said: "Captain, something must have happened!"

The captain took a deep breath, pulled out his waist knife, and shouted sharply, "Open the gate!"

The sergeants rushed forward and pushed open the thick gate. The captain swung his sword and led fifty guard sergeants towards Fan Zhufang.

There were killing sounds and screams in Fan Zhufang.The captain of the forbidden army led the crowd to the square. At this moment, the two sides of the square flickered with cold light, and more than 20 men in black robes holding scimitars flew to the front silently like ghosts. Flying across, turned into two white bones.

The captain of the Forbidden Army screamed in shock, and said in a trembling voice: "You, you are human or ghost..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a flash of a figure behind him, his head flew out like an arrow, and blood gushed out, and then the blood mist rose sharply, and the cold light radiated, the captain's body instantly turned into bones and fell to the ground.

The figure took off the hood it was wearing, and it was Wulezhi.

He looked around, and saw that there were very few of the more than 50 imperial guards under the attack of the wind rider's sharp knives.

Wule gave a sinister grin, and with the scimitar shaking in his palm, he rushed into the battle group. His joining made the already half dead and injured imperial army even worse.

But seeing clouds of cold mist rising, and only hearing the chirping sound of steel knives splitting bones, all the imperial guards were killed in less than a quarter of an hour.

Wule flicked his scimitar, and twenty wind riders quickly assembled.

With the sound of footsteps, Shar Khan walked out quickly.

He looked around and praised in Tule language: "Wind Rider really lives up to his reputation!"

The massacre was still going on, the wind rider's steel knife slammed on the unarmed palm guard and the craftsman, and the screams were endless...

The walls are splattered with murky blood;
Rivers of blood flow from the ground;
One after another the bones of the dead fell down.

A pair of feet walked slowly to the bones and stopped. The massacre in the workshop was over, and a voice rang out: "Okay, very good. Take the silver box away and burn this place to a piece of white ground!"

Outside Fan Zhufang, there were two loud bangs in the hall, and the flames flew up in an instant...

Shanjin Bureau was engulfed in flames.

……

In front of the gate of Di Mansion, a pair of hands desperately knocked on the door knocker.

Di Renjie, Wang Mang, Li Yuanfang, and Zeng Tai hurried into the main hall.

Di Fu rushed into the hall and said, "My lord, the warriors in the palace are here to deliver the decree!"

Following the words, the decree messenger rushed in and said anxiously: "Old man, something serious has happened!"

Di Renjie said: "Don't worry, speak slowly!"

The Lishi hurriedly said: "Tonight, for some reason, the Shanjin Bureau suddenly caught fire..."

Di Renjie blurted out and exclaimed: "Shanjin Bureau!"

"Exactly! Now that the fire is spreading beyond control, the Holy Lord ordered the three adults to go to Chengfumen as soon as possible!"

Di Renjie gasped, and exchanged glances with Wang Mang, Li Yuanfang, and Zeng Tai: "Let's set off immediately!"
