"Brush"

"No, we're surrounded."

"Brothers, calm down, let the guys come out."

Just as Cao Hu wanted to turn against each other, his subordinates not far away began to stir up, shouting, and those who were holding weapons were panicked, and they lined up a wall to surround the boxes of tax silver, all of which were tense.

No, there was an ambush, Cao Hu felt irritated. He usually had a good journey to stay in the inn, with the exception tonight. He wanted to wipe out the Chen family here and make a vote, but he didn't expect that it was so coincidental that it really made people stare at it. It was really unlucky, but at this time, he didn't care about so much. Cao Hu beat the bowl of broth with one hand, scolded him, "I don't know how to lift up", and ran to his subordinates while pulling out a long knife.

These are tax silver, totaling more than 20,000 taels, taxes in Jiangyou County, Liao pay, the hard-earned money of the people, and tax silver from the court, and there is no need to lose it. If this batch of silver is lost, I am afraid that everyone here will have to move. When they see Cao Hu running to protect the silver, the Chen family hesitated for a moment, and followed Chen Xian with a frightened face. It was already dark at this time, and I don’t know how many robbers there were, so it is safer to follow the officials.

Cao Hu leaned his subordinates on his back and felt a little relieved. When he saw the robbers surrounding him, he suddenly became bolder: the robbers were wearing night-sweet clothes, black pants, and black scarf covering their faces. There were only a dozen people, surrounded by a fan, and the guys in their hands were also uneven. Some were holding knives and some were holding sticks. The strong man in the leader held a big wooden stick in his hand, which looked like a few local buns were holding a hoe and shouting to collect tolls.

"You guys dare to steal the court's things. Are you not afraid of beheading the head and scouting the house?" Cao Hu shouted loudly.

I have more than 30 yamen runners, each equipped with sharp knives and spears, and cotton armor on them. There are only more than ten mobs in front of me, and their weapons are also poor. Isn’t it so funny that I dare to rob me? Isn’t this a delivery of vegetables?

"I am absent from my hometown, and I have no birth. You abandoned people are still unrepentant." The leading man said coldly: "I will not kill today. I will leave this batch of tax silver and let you live a way out."

White Lotus Sect?

Cao Hu felt cold. A few days ago, he heard that they were committing crimes in Liubianyi, which alarmed the prefect, governor and the surrounding garrisons. He sent people to search everywhere but could not find their traces. Unexpectedly, he suddenly appeared here and said that these were tax silvers. It seemed that he had set his sights on this silver early in the morning and created an opportunity to eradicate the root cause. Unexpectedly, he helped them. Fortunately, there were only more than ten people on the other side, but Cao Hu was not sure whether the other side had any help.

He was good at it and quietly touched it. When he arrived in front of him, he realized that Cao Hu wanted to scold the people he sent to watch were all pigs.

Although "Bold" was timid in his heart, he could not show it on his face, especially in his subordinates. Cao Hu shouted loudly: "You actually have the idea of ​​fighting the imperial court's tax silver. You are really tired of living. You just want to seize food from the tiger's mouth. How many people are there to show them."

A hoarse voice said coldly: "For you little fish, it is enough for us Eighteen Tiger Guards to go out. We don't want to eat the bitterness of flesh and blood and give the money to you."

"Hahaha..." Cao Hu shouted proudly, laughed, pointed at the men in black and said, "Brothers, let's go side by side, these remnants of the White Lotus Sect, the prefect issued a reward order, kill one of them and rewarded ten taels of silver. "

It comes in just the right way, and it can be rewarded and helps you to be promoted. The Chen family's affairs are just right on the White Lotus Sect, which can be said to be a hit and a single shot.

"kill"

"What are the Eighteen Tiger Guards? Brothers, we have a lot of people, cut them over and receive rewards."

"Such a few people are overestimating their abilities and killing them."

With Cao Hu's order, his subordinates rushed towards the more than ten men in black under the light of fire. Many yamen runners noticed that the guys in these people were not good. They were robbed with wooden sticks these days. They were pitted with pigs' noses and pretended to be elephants. Most of them were hungry and wanted to do some business that was not capital-free. Ten taels of silver were each, which was picking up ingots on the ground. More than thirty yamen runners were against more than ten masked men. There were more monks and less porridge. If they didn't grab them, they wouldn't be able to get anything if they didn't take it two steps.

The man in black in the leading man in black showed a hint of joking in his eyes. When he saw the yamen runners rushing up, he called "take action" and then took the lead in meeting him.

"Look at the knife" Although the fat Westerner is fat, he has a flexible movement and is very cautious. When he heard Cao Hu's order, he rushed out to grab the merits first. When he saw the man in black swinging a wooden stick, he was overjoyed and roared and slashed over.

The slash was fast and fast, and was about to hit the black leader. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, the black leader turned his body and calmly avoided Feixi and slashed with all his strength. The sword fell into nothing. Feixi's body was inevitably deformed. Before Feixi could react, the black leader kicked Feixi hard, hit Feixi's stomach. The kick was heavy, and with a "surging", Feixi screamed and his fat body suddenly flew backwards like a "surging" sound, and suddenly hit Niu Er and Yang Jiu who were following behind. The three of them wailed and rolled into a ball.

With just one kick, three people were dealt with. Cao Hu, who was supervising the battle behind, took a closer look and took a breath of air conditioning: the idea was very tough.

The leader in black beat three of them with one foot, and his hands kept hitting the foot of the yamen runners who rushed up to the right. With a "click" sound, the yamen runner fell down with his legs in pain, dealing with the person on the left. The leader in black beat his feet with one move and suddenly knocked down the two yamen runners near the right side, holding the wooden stick to rush into the group of yamen runners, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. Many people couldn't even support him after a while, and kept hitting the stick with the punches, and fell down in a blink of an eye.

The leader in black was very good, and his subordinates were not vague. They rushed up as ten times and beat people when they saw them. The yamen runners who were usually arrogant in front of the people were like a little kid who was still sipping breasts in front of this group of people. They were all put on the top in less than half a quarter of an hour, leaving only Cao Hu who was trembling with a knife. At this moment, except for the Chen family who were scared to the side, he was the only one standing with weapons.

Strong, these people who are known as the Eighteen Tiger Guards are too strong. No wonder more than ten of them dared to steal official silver. Before Cao Hu could rush forward, all his subordinates fell down all of a sudden. He asked himself how much he was not stronger than his subordinates, and was surrounded by three men in black. Cao Hu did not dare to act rashly for a moment.

"What are you...what are you going to do?" Cao Hu said tremblingly.

The black-clothed leader said coldly: "Today, only seek wealth, not life, and those who know each other should cooperate with each other, which angered the uncle and made you all."

Cao Hu then noticed that although his subordinates fell to the ground, some were dizzy and some were broken, and some were still moving. Thinking back, these men in black did not attack the vital points, so he felt a little relieved.

"I still want to resist, right?" A tall and thin man in black next to him raised his knife and pointed it at Cao Hu. His eyes flashed with a sharp look and he shouted: "Kneel down."

Cao Hu was shocked and was frightened by these undecent people. These people seemed to have a suffocating murderous aura. They were roared by the tall and thin man, loosened his hands, and the knife fell to the ground with a "pop", and then his knees became soft and he knelt on the ground.

I stayed with the green mountains and was not afraid of burning firewood. I injured more than 30 people, but this group of men in black didn’t even have minor injuries. Are these monsters?

"Hahaha, a group of cowards," the leader in black said with disdain. After saying that, he pointed at Cao Hu and said, "You"

"This hero, no, I don't know what orders are there."

The black-clothed leader said coldly: "You let the people who can still move all the money to the carriage. Hurry up, dare to say a word. Next year is your death day."

To steal money, do you have to treat yourself as a hard worker? Cao Hu was so angry that his lungs were almost blown up, but the situation was stronger than others. In front of these monsters, he could not raise the courage to resist. He gritted his teeth and endured it. He had to endure it and greeted those under-injured subordinates, and according to the instructions of the leader in black, he put the carriage in boxes of silver onto the carriage, and he had to carefully tie it up.

After everything was finished, the leader in black, Cao Hu and others, including the Chen family, lined up in two rows. The person with a hoarse voice began to tell everyone the teachings of the White Lotus. This lecture took only half an hour. After the speech, the man in black said in a hoarse voice: "Now I'm all thinking about it, I'm a vacuum of my hometown, and I have no birth."

"Vacuum hometown, no birth of old mother."

"Hit louder, can you want to die? I'm a vacuum of my hometown, and I have no birth to my mother."

"The real family hometown, no mother."

While shouting slogans three times, the leader in black ordered his subordinates to retreat, and threatened everyone: "If you don't kill this time, you will be lucky. I've said here that you are not allowed to leave here before dawn. We leave people behind to watch secretly. Those who dare to move before dawn will kill you."

Everyone wanted these plague gods to leave quickly, so they hurriedly promised not to move.

Just as the man in black turned around and was about to leave, Chen Li suddenly took two steps forward and said loudly: "This hero, take me away. I want to join the White Lotus Sect."

Chen Lishi has seen through it. People like Cao Hu are ill-behaved and will not let him go. If you die, you might as well join the White Lotus Sect. Maybe there is still a glimmer of life, and this is also the only chance of escape.

"Rareless, my Chen family is so arrogant that I can surrender to the enemy? You bitch, come back quickly." Chen Xian, who was standing beside him, suddenly became furious and scolded loudly.

In his concept, the people do not fight with officials, nor can they join the thief.

"Uncle Second, haven't you seen it clearly?" Chen Ji pointed at Cao Hu and his group with a sad and angry look on his face and said, "These are scumbags who eat people and don't spit bones. They just wanted to kill us. Is there still a way out with them?"

"Why did the second wife say this?" Cao Hu said with a look of "pain": "What does County Magistrate Chen also my old boss. He has kindness to Cao. You can't repay your grudges with kindness. Just now, it was just a small misunderstanding. What do you say like this? This is a disheartening thing."

Chen Ji wanted to say something, but the black-clothed leader said impatiently: "It turns out that I don't care about your bad things, and the official family doesn't want it."

One sentence cut off Chen Ji's hope and wanted to say something, but the black-clothed leader had already asked his subordinates to drive the carriage away. Before leaving, he did not forget two things: one was to threaten everyone not to leave this place before dawn, and the other was to kill all the horses that could not be taken away to prevent them from riding horses to report the news.

Made without leaking.

Not long after, a silence disappeared around him again...

The men in black all left, but Cao Hu and his group were still in the temporary camp and did not dare to move. The men in black said that they would stay and monitor them. They would kill them as soon as they left here. Everyone dared not make fun of their lives. Besides, there was no horse, and the road was slippery, so they could only stay in place for dawn. The crowd was clearly divided: the Chen family sat in a bunch, and Cao Hu and his men sat aside.

"Brothers, Taxun was robbed, what should I do?" Cao Hu said in a low voice.

Fei Xi gritted his teeth and lowered his voice, "As soon as he dies, it is better to say that the Chen family colludes with the White Lotus Sect to rob the silver on the way. Then we will kill them all and hide a few corpses. Then they will say that they have left with the White Lotus Sect and let them take the blame for us."

"This, this is not good. If it is found out, it is a death sentence. We are not as skilled as others. If we are robbed of tax silver, we may not be convicted and die." Yang Jiu opposed on the side.

"Yes," an yamen runner who is close to Yang Jiu echoed: "Brother Jiu is right, it can't be kept in a bad situation."

Niu Er cursed: "Say, just say, let's just say we can help the Bailian Sect to trap horses and move money? If you don't die, you have never tried the Jinyiwei's methods. They would rather kill the wrong ones than let them go."

"This matter is difficult to deal with. Who are these Eighteen Tiger Guards? Why are they so powerful?"

Everyone was talking, but Cao Hu bowed his head and didn't say anything, but his eyes were full of evil light...

Finally until dawn, when Chen Ji thought she was running away, she suddenly saw a scene in horror: several yamen runners suddenly pulled out their swords and stabbed them at their companions, including the captain Cao Hu. Chen Ji saw that the person who was stabbed to death by Cao Hu was his usual favored confidant Yang Jiu. After killing several of his own people, Cao Hu carried the long blood-dropped sword and walked towards his group of yamen runners with a group of fierce light, smiling while walking.

"Cao Hu, what are you going to do?" Chen Ji asked tremblingly.

"Hehe, what do you think, then I think too." After Cao Hu said, he waved his sword: "Go ahead, keep this woman for me."

"kill"
