Peerless Pirates
Chapter 617: To Kill or Not to Kill
The words of the tiger-striped brawny man calmed down the old man known as the military advisor. He got up from the ground, straightened his clothes, and said in a deep voice, "General Hu, the matter is now over. I'm afraid it's too late to return to Jiangning to ask for countermeasures. We must send
At the same time, someone needs to report back to Jiangning and discuss ways to discuss the latest chapter of Three Kingdoms. No matter what, Lord Lu cannot fall into Song Zheng's hands."
The strong man with tiger stripes named Hu frowned and said, "Although these people are riding fast horses, with our horse power, it is not easy to catch up with them. We will probably have to go to Xuanzhou to catch up. So what can we do?"
”
The old man pondered for a moment, as if he was embarrassed.
The tiger-patterned man hammered his palm, "Why don't we just change into plain clothes, turn into horses, kill them in Xuanzhou, snatch Master Lu away, and then run away!"
"Just run away? That's easy to say." The old man shook his head and said, "What about Mr. Lu? Yousi has an imperial edict and snatched it back from Yousi. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to return to Yuanzhou and become the magistrate.
Besides, there are thirty of them, and we need to dispatch at least twice as many people to be sure of capturing them. With so many people, it is likely that the local garrison sergeants will be alerted."
"That's true!" The tiger-patterned man scratched his head and said, "It doesn't matter whether you rob or not. This is really difficult to handle. If we wait for our people to send back the news from Jiangning, I'm afraid Song Zheng has also entered the capital.
.”
The old man bit his lip and said, "But now, there is only one way."
"What can I do?"
"kill!"
As soon as this word came out, not only the tiger-striped man was stunned, but also the yellow-faced man who had just gotten up sat down on the ground.
"There is a difference between robbing and killing. To rob someone, not only do you need to dispatch enough people, but to kill, you only need a poisonous arrow." The old man had a sullen face, looking particularly sinister.
The strong man rubbed his hands and said, "Although Mr. Lu said he would provide us with cover, he was the person arranged by the superiors after all. If we act rashly, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain."
The old man took two steps back and forth on the steps and suddenly said, "It's still the arrangement just now. Mr. Hu, you have superb archery skills. You can select two people from our army to follow you together. In addition, I will send two more people to go around.
On the way back to Jiangning, we used two horses and two saddles to report the news to Jiangning day and night. From Yuanzhou to Xuanzhou eastward, if we want to turn to Jiangning, we must pass through Ningguo.
From Ningguo to Jiangning, there are two official roads. One is to continue eastward for fifty miles, pass through Yashan and then go north, taking Guangde and Lishui. This road is more mountainous and has many passes. The other is directly from Ningguo.
Go north through Xuancheng and enter Taiping Prefecture, to Dangtu and then along the river to Jiangning. There are no dangerous passes along the way. If you were Song Zheng, which road would you choose?"
"Of course I choose the latter. It's more stable. How good it is."
The old man shook his head, "I have just received news that someone has noticed the Half Moon Valley. In several villages outside the valley, some people have inquired about the situation in the Half Moon Valley in the past two days."
"Ah?" The tiger-patterned man was shocked.
"Why are you panicking?" the old man said with a glare, "Don't say that the villagers don't know us, but what if they do? It's not like we haven't thought of a way to escape. What I doubt is whether the person who came to inquire is related to Song Zheng.
"
The big man with tattooed tiger said, "If people from Yousi really notice this place, Lu Zhizhou will really have to kill him. Otherwise, Song Zheng will follow the clues, and I'm afraid it will be over."
"That's not necessarily true. I've just heard about Lu Zhizhou's so-called crime. Although it is a crime that must be killed according to Daqi law, in today's world, this crime is really nothing. Even if we get to Jiangning, there must be mediation from above.
method."
The tiger-patterned man scratched his head and said, "Commander, just now you said you wanted to kill, but now you seem to mean not to kill. What's going on?"
"It's not up to us to decide whether to kill or not. We have to be prepared to kill." The old man looked full of wisdom, which made the big man with striped tigers roll his eyes. Fortunately, the old man had something to say next, "Follow Yousi.
Just people, it doesn’t matter whether you do it or not
, there must be arrangements from above, you just need to assist the people above. The reason why you are asked to send two people to Jiangning to report the news is because there are two official roads from Ningguo to Jiangning. When these two people return from Jiangning, at least one of them can
Welcome you."
The big man with tattooed tiger hummed, and immediately went out. The old man also hurriedly returned to his house, muttered a few words to the two men in black beside him, and the two immediately ran out of the yard and went straight to the stables.
A quarter of an hour later, two people and four horses rushed out from the mouth of Banyue Valley. The sergeants guarding the valley hurriedly moved the fence. Before the sergeants could close the fence, three more people and three horses jumped out of the valley.
They were in casual clothes, and there were long black bags hanging on the horses' belly, which vaguely looked like bows and arrows. Several sergeants were so frightened that they dared to move the fence again.
"Isn't that a bearded man? Why are he dressed like this? Did he just..." A sergeant gasped and asked softly.
The same black-faced man scolded angrily, "You talk a lot, stand up straight. We will directly control those who enter the valley, and don't care about those who leave the valley. Don't ask anything!" age:url(img13527354

Song Zheng and other thirty people took Lu Bingxuan all the way to the northeast and arrived at Gao'an City in the evening. However, they did not enter the city, but rested in a town outside the city. Early the next morning,
They set off immediately. Due to the twists and turns of the official road, everyone arrived at Hongzhou City (today's Nanchang) before sunset.
After entering the city, Song Zheng and others went straight to the magistrate's office. The magistrate of Hongzhou's surname was Tian. His style was much less impressive than Lu Bingxuan's. The black beard under his chin was so thick that if he had a red face, he would look like a real person.
Contemporary Guan Gong.
Although Tian Zhizhou was surprised by Song Zheng's sudden visit, he still warmly received Song Zheng. Lord Tian had a good impression of Song Zheng, and his reputation as an expert in both civil and military affairs was not something he deserved after all. After the two sides exchanged greetings, Tian Zhizhou continued to talk,
Not only did he highly praise Song Zheng,
He also expressed his admiration for Song Jue. As a contemporary scholar, Song Jue, Tian Zhizhou had visited Jiangning, so he quickly established relations. Then, Mr. Tian talked openly and secretly about how incorruptible he was and how well he governed officials. Hongzhou
There are several houses in the city that are kept open all night.
It’s no wonder Lord Tian boasts about himself. Song Zheng is from Yousi, who is responsible for supervising all officials for the emperor. You are so capable that Yousi doesn’t care, but if you make a mistake, you will definitely be teased and reported.
Song Zheng didn't have time to listen to his wordy words. After a few words of false agreement, he ignored Mr. Tian's conversation and went straight to the topic.
"Sir Tian, I am passing by Hongzhou this time and I have something important to ask of you."
Tian Zhizhou was startled and said hurriedly, "Master Song, please tell me, as long as this state can do it, we can do anything."
Song Zheng chuckled in his heart, what he wanted was your words, "That's it. Lu Bingxuan, the governor of Yuanzhou, was corrupt and perverted the law, and he was captured by my officers and escorted to Jiangning. However, this time I acted in a hurry, and my officers did not have enough manpower.
It’s not enough. I would like to borrow twenty government officials from your local government for my use. I wonder if Mr. Tian will allow it?”
"Zhizhou? Yamen servant?" Tian Zhizhou was startled and screamed in his heart, "What a good boy, You Si actually dares to take someone here now!"
Knowing his doubts, Song Zheng directly took out the imperial edict and unfolded only a corner. Tian Zhizhou fell to his knees in panic and waited for Song Zheng to put the edict away before he got up.
Song Zheng said calmly, "Mr. Tian, is there no problem?"
Tian Zhizhou said hurriedly, "No problem, no problem, I'll arrange it right away."
Song Zheng saw that the other party was interested, so he did not use his trump card, "I want two carriages, thirty government servants, and also need Mr. Tian to prepare some food for us. Of course, I will not treat these people badly, as long as they send
When we go to Jiangning, our right department still has to pay for all the expenses and hard work."
"It's easy to talk, it's easy to talk. This is a business matter, how can I let Mr. Song spend money." Tian Zhizhou quickly replied, "I will arrange for the official of your company to rest in the post house."
Song Zheng nodded and then took a sip of the tea in front of him.
Tian Zhizhou acted resolutely and quickly arranged Song Zheng and others to stay in the post house. Originally, Lord Tian wanted to entertain Song Zheng, but Song Zheng declined. Tian Zhizhou originally wanted to invite Song Zheng to the back house of Zhizhou Mansion to rest, but
Seeing Song Zheng like this, he didn't say anything.
After finally sending Tian Zhizhou away, Song Zheng and everyone ate in a hurry. After traveling continuously, it was natural that Song Zheng, a physically strong person like him, would have no problem, but Yuan Rong, Se'er and the other soldiers showed signs of exhaustion. As for Lu Zhizhou,
He had been tortured to the point where he still had half his life left. If Lu Bingxuan hadn't been in good health, he wouldn't have been able to ride like a sack on a horse for two days. This is why Song Zheng asked Zhizhou for a carriage.
After dinner, Song Zheng quietly asked Lu Bingxuan to be transferred to his room. He actually wanted to take care of Lu Bingxuan himself, so Se'er had to sleep in a room with Yuan Rong.
Having turned off the lights early, Song Zheng sat opposite Lu Bingxuan. In the courtyard, the dim light from the lanterns shone dimly, and then came in through the windows, making it even more blurry. However, Song Zheng had extraordinary eyesight, and he could see everything in the room.
Still very clear.
Lu Bingxuan was lying on the bed. Since his hands were tied, he could only lie sideways, but his face was facing Song Zheng.
"How is it? Does it taste bad?" Song Zheng said calmly.
Lu Bingxuan snorted. Although he was weak, he was very calm and said, "You can't punish a doctor."
Song Zheng ignored him and said, "Tell me, is there anything else that your boss doesn't know about? Tell me and I can consider making you feel more comfortable."
"Your right-hand supervisor, haven't you already grasped the situation? Why are you still asking me?" Lu Bingxuan's face showed a hint of ridicule. After two days of torture, he had lost at least two kilograms, and his face
His beard was unkempt and he looked very depressed.
"Haha, of course there are many things I don't know. For example, you are picking up ashes, messing with rabbits, etc."
Lu Bingxuan sneered and said, "Lu, it's really eye-opening. You, the dignified scholar, speak so vulgarly. If word gets out, I don't know how many people will laugh out loud!"
"Is it thick?" Song Zheng chuckled, "There is only one place on my body that is thicker than yours, and I didn't expect you to know about it."
Lu Zhizhou struggled to twist his body, trying to turn his back to Song Zheng, not wanting to face such a vulgar person.
Song Zheng stood up suddenly, pulled out the Fish Gut Sword, and walked to the bed in two steps. The blade of the sword was reflected by the faint light, which startled Lu Bingxuan, and he said in shock, "You..."
Before he could say anything, Song Zheng covered his mouth, and the fish-intestinal sword slashed down with a cold light. With a swipe, the rope that bound his hands opened.
