Zitong East City welcomed the inn. A middle-aged man with an ordinary face looked around and found that there was no one, so he knocked on the door.

"who?"

When the people in the room heard the knock on the door, they were shocked and quietly came to the door with swords.

As long as the knocker makes any changes, he will kill him by slashing his sword.

"Brother, it's me Huang Er." Huang Er whispered.

Squeak!

"It's your boy, I thought it was..."

Brother Huang was relieved and asked someone to put away the sword and open the door and let him in.

Huang Er entered the room, closed the door, and smiled and said, "Brother, don't be afraid, I'm very careful in doing things."

"Stop making excuses, tell me quickly, how is the investigation?" Brother Huang Er brought a cup of white water to Huang Er, let him drink it to quench his thirst, and told everyone the results of the investigation.

Huang Er thanked his elder brother, took the water and drank it in a big gulp, then took the empty cup and said, "Brother, according to my investigation, two days later, the family of the thief Zhang Rui went to Fangguang Temple to pray for blessings."

"Is this news reliable?" It's a big deal about all the brothers, and Brother Huang, the second brother, had to be cautious.

"Brother, it's reliable." Huang Er said with a heartache: "This is what I spent ten taels of silver to ask the servants of the Zhang Mansion."

In this way, Brother Huang was relieved and then said to everyone: "Brothers, kill Zhang Zhei's family first, and then kill Zhang Rui himself."

Everyone pressed their voices and said in unison: "Okay!"

...

Zhang Hu brought the convoy back to the mansion. Zhang Shen looked at the pile of gold, silver and treasures like mountains and breathed a sigh of relief.

With these treasures, you can breathe a sigh of relief.

Immediately, someone gave these things to Du Shi and asked him to recruit soldiers and buy grain to provide relief to the families of the dead soldiers on the front line.

In addition, with these things, Zhang Shen sent back the gold and silver jewelry of the two old ladies.

At the same time, the money donated by the family members in the mansion was also returned one by one.

Two days later, before dawn, the servants of the Zhang family got up early and started to get busy.

In the main hall of the outside house, Zhang Shen instructed his son: "This time I go out to burn incense and pray for blessings, I must protect the women in my family.

Especially your two grandmothers, they are your grandfather's life, so you must not make any mistakes."

Zhang Hu nodded and replied, "Dad, I understand."

"Okay, you go down and prepare first. When the two old ladies finish their breakfast, then set off!"

Zhang Hu said goodbye to his father and went to the military camp to prepare.

At 9 o'clock, the main gate of Zhang Mansion opened wide, and a team of ten people, Xiao Si jogged out and stood outside the door.

After a while, a pair of carriages with stone green curtains and glass embroidered belts came out, and Ru Lan and Minglan were sitting in the carriage.

Then three more carriages came out, and Zhang Rui's daughter-in-law sat on the carriage.

Xiao Si, the maids in the mansion, followed behind each car.

The group set out towards the west city, and the pedestrians on the street let Zhang Hu's five hundred soldiers block the road one by one.

After leaving the Xicheng Gate, the weather is cool and it is a good time to rush.

Zhang Hu protected them to Fangshan ten miles away to rush.

...

Fangshan is a small hill with an altitude of only more than 300 meters. The difference is that there is a Fangguang Temple on the mountain.

The pilgrims who came to the temple all said that the Buddhas here were very effective.

At the foot of Fangshan, the monks in the temple were waiting early.

In order to ensure that they can burn incense safely, Zhang Shen sent people to Fangguang Temple in advance to ask them to prohibit outsiders from burning incense on this day.

"Abbot, I heard that the men in this family are all traitors?"

A monk in his thirties whispered to the old monk who was close his eyes and chanting sutras silently.

The abbot opened his eyes and shouted softly: "The people in Buddhism are not allowed to discuss common things."

After saying that, close your eyes and recite the scriptures silently.

About half an hour, a monk in the crowd pointed to the front and shouted, "Here are here, they are here."

Everyone hurriedly looked at it, and the soldiers came towards them with the convoy protecting the convoy.

The convoy was from far to near, and stopped in front of the monks, and a beautiful young woman came down from the carriage led by the leader.

"Xiao Liu, come down quickly, the scenery here is so beautiful!"

The beautiful woman was Rulan. Looking at the scenery around her, she urged Minglan in the carriage to get off quickly.

"knew."

Minglan got off the carriage with the help of her maid.

"How is it? The scenery here is good, right?" Rulan asked.

Grass, wild flowers, green trees, strange stones, etc.

"It's really a unique flavor." Minglan praised.

The three daughters of Ye came to her side, Minglan held Rulan's hand and said, "Sister is all here, let's go."

The five people walked together, and the abbot of Fang Guang Temple took the five girls up the mountain.

The temple on the mountain is only ten minutes away, and in a short while, we arrived at the front yard of the temple.

Minglan and Rulan knelt on the bright yellow cushion, closed their palms, closed their eyes, and silently begged the Buddha to bless Zhang Rui to return safely.

In addition, bless your parents, children and each other to have a safe and worry-free life.

This other party is the two sisters Minglan and Rulan.

I silently recited it three times in my heart, and got up from the cushion with the help of the three daughters of Ye.

Minglan took a packed purse from Zhu Ying'er and handed it to the abbot with both hands.

"Abbot, this is the money for indulgence oil donated to Kyushu by my sister and I."

"Thank you two donors."

The abbot closed his hands and thanked him.

Then a little monk held a red wooden plate and Minglan put the silver on it.

"Dear donors, the vegetarian meal is ready. Please move to the backyard room." said the abbot.

Minglan closed her hands and thanked her: "It's time for the abbot."

The abbot took them out of the hall gate and walked towards the backyard.

At this moment, with a "swoosh", four arrows shot towards Minglan and Rulan.

Zhang Hu drew his sword in time to block the two women, blocked three arrows with the knife, and shot his right arm with one arrow.

"My son, how are you?"

Ye Ningshuang was shocked and threw herself on Zhang Hu and asked hurriedly.

Zhang Hu endured the pain and said, "Mom, my son is fine, take good care of the two grandmothers."

"Brothers, kill Zhang Zhei's family and avenge the people killed by Zhang Zhei."

A strong man held a long knife in his hand, shouted loudly, and rushed towards Zhang Hu and others.

"Kill!"

Sixteen people followed behind the strong man, including seven monks, holding sharp blades.

When the abbot saw that there was a monk in the assassination, he was shocked. Zhang Hu was even more furious and thought that the assassination was arranged by him.

Immediately I was about to kill the abbot, and the abbot hurriedly explained, and asked the monk to protect Zhang Rui's family.

Zhang Hu asked a guard to go to the foot of the mountain to report the news and asked them to come and rescue him as soon as possible.

And he and the only three remaining people dragged the assassins.

One side should take advantage of the lack of people to kill Zhang Rui's family first, while the other side should try their best to protect Zhang Rui's family.

At this time, the abbot's junior brother pulled out a short blade that was shining with a cold light from his sleeve and stabbed Ru Lan, who had not yet recovered.

"Sister." After Minglan discovered it, she reminded Rulan to avoid it quickly.

Fortunately, the abbot blocked the fatal blow for Rulan, and the four women hurriedly pulled Rulan away with fear that their faces were pale.

At the same time, they lost their last chance. When the soldiers at the foot of the mountain heard that the lord's family was assassinated, they rushed up the mountain desperately.
