Dominate the Country
Chapter 16 Murder
It seems that there is thunder in the autumn rain. I wonder if there is thunder in late autumn?
In fact, it was two gunshots, two flintlock muskets, and green smoke was coming out of the muzzles. Chen Ming's hands were shaking and he was nervous, but he immediately changed to two new flintlock pistols.
This is the structural diagram of a flintlock pistol that Chen Ming drew one and a half months after he went to the countryside, and half a month after he got a shotgun hidden in the Chen family's private collection, at the cost of breaking the shotgun into pieces. The Chen family also spent two months on it. Only seven qualified ones were made. During the Qing Dynasty, the pistol was called a handgun. This thing was really much larger and heavier than the pistols of later generations.
Seven flintlock handguns, one for Chen Erbao, one for Chen Ming and Chen Hui, one for the gunsmith in Xiaonangou's hometown, one for Chen Hui's bedroom, and the remaining two are placed The bedroom of the county house, but if any of the three members of the family went out to use the carriage, the two flintlock muskets were transferred from the secret compartment of the bedroom to the concealed box of the carriage. It’s not Chen Ming’s idea to be afraid of ten thousand, just to be afraid of the worst. During the three months of time travel, although Chen Ming met Chen Erbao and his gang of private salt dealers, he didn’t really realize the danger of this time and space, that is, his life. I had never received a real threat, so I subconsciously thought that there was no danger. This is the insistence of his cheap father.
Chen Ming didn't think about his father's "just in case" policy, so he sincerely applied. Today I really met a bad guy, and he was a bad guy with a clear goal.
He could no longer think too much. He held a blunderbuss tightly in his hand and looked nervously at the two riders behind him. Liu Wu, who had received the musket, sat slumped at the rear of the carriage and loaded the musket fearfully. Liu Wu's hands shook like a sieve, and more gunpowder was scattered in the medicine gourd than poured into the gun barrel, but this undoubtedly put great pressure on the two cavalry behind him. But Chen Ming still held the last bullet in his hand.
Lao Suntou was also startled by Chen Ming's sudden magic weapon. The two riders in front of the carriage fell off their horses. A big hole was opened in their chests, and they were bleeding profusely. It looked like they would not survive. After Lao Suntou reacted, he looked happy. He dismounted neatly and came to Chen Ming. He stared at the two riders behind him with bright eyes. The iron sickle in his hand was blocked in front of Chen Ming and the driver of the carriage behind him. Out of Chen Ming's body.
"Gulu!"
Huang San swallowed hard and held the wooden stick tightly in his hands, but their arms were trembling. Who would have thought that the Chen family would put three muskets on a carriage. Huang San had little knowledge and had only seen shotguns. He had never seen this flintlock gun, but this did not prevent him from knowing what it was.
In Huang San's opinion, handguns are very noble things. It would be nice if a wealthy landowner had two shotguns at home. How could the Chen family have three guns popping up in a carriage? This was beyond his knowledge.
But what frightened him even more was that the blunderbuss in Chen Ming's hand had already killed two of his companions, which proved that the blunderbuss in Chen Ming's hand was not a fake. Now there are two of them left. Chen Ming still has a blunderbuss in his hand. Anyone with a clear mind knows that a blunderbuss can only kill one person. There are still two of them, but one can still be left to take revenge. It was a shame, but Huang San didn't want to be the third person to fall to the gun. He believed that Zou Chong next to him must also think so.
"Young Master Chen, you guys are ignorant and have offended the young master. You guys, leave now, leave now."
Zou Chong's voice was full of tremors. They should have been able to do this job easily, but they didn't expect to encounter the evil star. They shot without saying a word, and half of the four brothers died. Since neither of the remaining two people wanted to die, they had no choice but to retreat. They must retreat quickly, otherwise they won't be able to leave even if they want to when the other two handguns are loaded.
Zou Chong gritted his teeth, and as soon as he finished speaking, he turned the horse's head outward and tried to run out from the side of the carriage. Huang San also followed immediately. Although he was scared to death and his face turned pale, he wanted to leave with Zou Chong because of this.
Chen Ming clearly realized the fear of the two people opposite him, and he wanted to ask who was behind them at every turn. But when the words came to his lips, Chen Ming swallowed them hard. He also felt scared. He had just killed two people, and when he was in danger, he had all the strength to support him, so he didn't feel scared. But now that the danger was gone, his legs were weak.
It’s better to do less than to do more!
As a small person, as an ordinary person, he really doesn't have the domineering and courage to intimidate his enemies in turn.
The clothes on his body were already wet from the rain, and the cool rainwater flowed down his neck to his chest, and Chen Ming shivered. Only then did I realize that my body was very cold.
"Old Sun, go see those two people and see if you know them. Pack up their things and see if any of them reveal their identity." Chen Ming kicked Liu Wu, who was still trembling, and the two retracted into the car. Wu put down the medicine gourd in his hand and immediately turned the charcoal on the stove to the strongest.
The warm charcoal stove made Chen Ming feel a little warm. He put his hands on the mouth of the stove. The warmth was really comfortable. The tension in his heart gradually dissipated, Liu Wu's hands no longer trembled, and he reloaded the two flintlock handguns after firing.
His chest went from violent ups and downs to steady, and Chen Ming's expression calmed down. He didn't feel any difference in himself, but in Liu Wu's eyes, the young master's eyes brightened a lot. He was still the same person, but his temperament had changed. The whole person seemed to be a little different from before.
Sun Youfu came in quickly with two swords and a small package, "Master, everything is here. No marks of identity were found. There is also a letter in here for you to read."
"It's well prepared." Chen Ming took a look at the letter. He knew what was written in it without even looking at it.
"Old Sun, can you trust the driver behind you?"
"Master, what you mean is..."
"I'm not that cruel. I'm asking if he is in the same group with the four kidnappers." Chen Ming said with a smile.
Sun Youfu's face was much more relaxed, "No. This guy is the nephew of the manager Yang of the carriage and horse shop. He has been working in the carriage and horse shop for five years."
"It's okay as long as he is trustworthy. Tell him what to say and what not to say. The Chen family will not treat people unfairly."
"In addition, the body cannot be left outside for a long time. If someone sees it, it will be troublesome. Move it to the carriage behind. Old Sun, go ask the driver to help. Liu Wu, you also go down to help."
Xinji still has to go. But they don't go this way now. Just walk three or two miles forward on the road now, turn left and take the small road. There is a village less than a mile away. There is a tea shop and a small shop opened by the villagers at the corner. The small shop is a secret point of the Chen family.
It is called a secret point, but it is really exaggerated. There will never be a strong force inside. The secret point is the father and his son. In fact, this secret point is just a sentry to inquire about the news and explore the wind. The owner and his family took the news to the Chen family to exchange silver and money. It is just an extra income for the three of them to open the shop.
Chen Ming wants to stay in this small shop and send someone to inform his father and the nearest farm. After such a thing happened, Chen Ming dared to go to Xinji without all the bodyguards, but he would never dare to go back to Tumenji from Xinji with his cheap elder brother.
And for the sake of safety, if he could find enough people in the inn, he wanted to send a message to Xinji Sitong Inn, asking Chen Gang to stay in the inn before he led his people to Xinji, and never go back to Tumenji in advance.
The sudden appearance of the "kidnapper" made Chen Ming feel a sense of crisis in his heart. He really saw the tyranny of the local tyrants in ancient China. For a while, he was suspicious of everything. This can be seen from the fact that he even suspected the driver of the carriage and horse company.
After being "frightened", Chen Ming was already a little suspicious!
But this is human nature. After all, Chen Ming was just a little ** before crossing. Not to mention shooting and killing people, he only fired a few shots during military training in college, and he never fought on weekdays.
How could there be no impact after killing people suddenly!
