Working Emperor of the Northern and Southern Dynasties

"Damn, you are so cruel!"

The sun was rising, and on the bluestone tile floor in front of Zhou Yihai, there were corpses on pillows, stained with blood, and the strong smell of blood assaulted his nostrils. The scene in front of him was horrifying.

A guard turned over the people on the ground, shook his head at Zhou Yihai and said: "Master Xiaowei, not one of them is alive!"

Zhou Yihai struck the altar with his knife, causing sparks to fly. He cursed fiercely: "I'm careless, I'm careless..."

I think back then, when the scholar surnamed Chen told him that the secret road was not safe, he still refused to believe it. He even said that there was a suspicious person in Wubao and did not pay enough attention to it. Now the bloody fact is facing him.

It’s too late to regret in front of you.

"Master Captain, what should we do with this secret passage?" A guard asked, pointing to the entrance of the cave that had been smoked like a brick kiln.

Zhou Yihai said angrily: "Those living bandits must have walked out of this secret passage, who cares what they did! Follow me immediately to find these bandits. Once discovered, kill them immediately!"

After receiving the order, the guards withdrew one after another. Zhou Yihai turned his head and looked at the dark entrance to the secret passage, and suddenly remembered that Chen Chang had told him to seal the entrance to the secret passage in time.

Since these thieves have killed all the people guarding the entrance of the cave, there is no reason to stay inside. Now that he has limited manpower, he really has no time to take care of this place.

He looked at the entrance of the cave again, sighed, and finally turned around and left.

The sun was shining brightly outside, but it was pitch black inside the secret passage, and a spicy and pungent smell filled the air.

After Liu Yaozu "fainted", he kept pretending to be dead. The bandits were still in the secret passage, so he did not dare to get up blindly. He analyzed their situation from the few words of the bandits. It turned out that things were just as he expected.

The people in Wubao had already made some arrangements at the exit of the ancestral hall. With the smoke and crossbow shooting, most of the bandits were killed or injured.

Originally, he wanted to run back secretly, but before he could take action, several bandits had already bolted towards the road they came from.

The news I brought back was very depressing. The hole in the woods was blocked from the outside.

When Liu Yaozu heard this, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. If the exit of the ancestral hall was sealed again, he and the thieves would be suffocated to death underground.

I mustered up my courage, stood up quietly, and groped towards the exit. After walking for a while, I heard the thief's soft voice coming from the secret passage in the distance, and I stopped in my tracks.

"Leader Wang and others have gone out, but where are you and my brothers? We can obviously fight out together..."

"Keep your voice down, don't let the outside world hear it, otherwise neither you nor I will survive... Leader Wang is comparable to Wolong, how can you know his thoughts?"

"How long do we have to wait?"

"Just follow Leader Wang's arrangements!"

"What if they block the exit, wouldn't you and I... No, I'm going to have a look now!"

"Don't mess around"

"But..."

"Stay here honestly...listen! Their people are coming..."

"Ah? You don't really want to block the entrance of the cave..."

"If they seal the cave, it won't be too late for us to rush out..."

"But..."

"If you want to survive, keep silent..."

After a long time, the voice of one of them sounded again: "They left, the entrance of the cave is not closed, hey, Leader Wang really knows what's going on..."

Liu Yaozu's head did hit the stalactite. Although he did it intentionally, the back of his head still hurt a little, so that he felt that his thinking was not as sharp as before. He tried hard to think about the two bandits just now.

Through the conversation, we gradually figured out the clues.

It turned out that the leader surnamed Wang led some of his people and killed them, leaving two bandits still hiding in the cave. The man surnamed Wang was indeed cunning, and it was expected that the guards outside would think that they had all gone out.

p>

This is a dangerous move, and it is also a strange move. The five bandits staying in this secret passage are hiding like poisonous snakes. When needed, they will show their sharp fangs and send a fatal blow to the target.

Click.

Liu Yaozu opened his eyes wide, but the secret passage was still dark and oppressive, and it became more difficult to endure every moment.

If the two bandits in the secret passage don't get out, he won't be able to get out either. Moreover, once the people in the secret passage are exposed, people from outside will inevitably come in to clean them up. By then, one can imagine his fate as a bandit collaborator.

.

Kill them and then go out? Liu Yaozu has done a lot of fights, but he has never killed anyone.

His teeth were clenched together tightly, and if he could escape safely, there would be no harm in killing them.

He adjusted his breathing and analyzed these in his mind. After a while, slight footsteps were heard not far away. He looked in the direction of the sound. The light in the secret passage was too dark to see clearly!

"What are you going to do?"

"Excuse me, I've been holding my urine for a long time..."

"Go quickly and come back quickly, don't wait any longer!"

"Yeah."

The sound of soft footsteps rang in Liu Yaozu's ears again, and he hurriedly hid in a stone crevice.

After a while, a dark figure approached and stood still, making the sound of unbuttoning his pants and the sound of rushing water...

Even though Liu Yaozu tried his best to hold his breath, a foul smell still hit his nostrils. The place where the bandit urinated was less than five steps away from him.

After urinating and urinating, the bandit felt relieved, but Liu Yaozu almost suffocated and smoked to death.

"Chief Wang and the others should have started fighting outside. Well, it's time for our brothers to see the light of day again. We're going to kill them all this time..." The man said softly and viciously while holding up his pants.

Just as he put on his pants, turned around and groped back, behind his body, Liu Yaozu's figure silently walked out of the crack in the stone, holding a sharp knife in his trembling hand...

The man wearing a half-sleeved shirt that Chen Chang and Shui Ling'er saw was the bandit leader Wang Xie. His original clothes had been stained by fireworks, so he took off Liu Yingshun's clothes and took advantage of Zhou Yihai to leave.

Lead the people and kill them.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

He originally wanted to cooperate with the bandits outside the city, but he was a fool named He. When he rushed out excitedly, he found that his companions who were attacking the city had already retreated.

In desperation, he had no choice but to lead his men among the villagers to stir up trouble and secretly wait for the opportunity.

Judging from the current situation, his words are very effective. Some villagers can no longer stand it any longer. They just need to add more fire.

Wang Xie called one of his subordinates, whispered a few words, and the subordinate quickly followed the order and left.

Chen Chang is persuading Zhang Baosheng, Zhang Sanlang and others with earnest words, and the effect is naturally there. Zhang Baosheng's mood has eased slightly. It seems that he believes what he said, but Zhang Sanlang and others are still a little excited.

It's just that I didn't dare to attack because of Ma Liang's ferocity.

"Fellow folks, I'm sure that a thief has already infiltrated among you. Just now someone must have seen a man wearing a half-sleeved shirt. If what I expected is correct, it was a thief in disguise. You know, that half-sleeved shirt

It belongs to Liu Yingshun, an official in Yangjiadu. This man has been accidentally killed in the secret passage for his son Liu Yaozu..."

Shui Ling'er echoed: "Yes, that half-sleeved shirt does belong to Liu Lili, but now he is dead and his body is in the secret passage."

At this time, someone recognized Shui Ling'er and said, "Huh? Aren't you the Shui... Shui Ling'er from Liu Lili's house?"

Shui Ling'er's face immediately turned hot when she heard this. When Chen Chang told everyone about the Liu family and his son in the secret passage, he did not mention that she was also there.

Liu Yingshun's death was ultimately due to a conflict over the issue of Shui Ling'er. Although it had nothing to do with Shui Ling'er himself, others would inevitably think about it after hearing it.

Chen Chang coughed a few times and was about to explain when he suddenly heard Ma Liang shouting from behind: "Chen Langjun, be careful!"

Before he finished speaking, a strong wind had arrived, but a crossbow arrow was shot from the window. Chen Chang was pushed hard by Shui Ling'er and almost fell down, and the crossbow arrow scratched her shoulder, barely hitting her.

The old man fell into the throat of Zhang Baosheng opposite him. The old man covered his neck, struggled feebly twice, and then fell to the ground.

When Zhang Sanlang saw his father hit by an arrow, he screamed and rushed forward: "Father..."

"Old man..." Zhang Baosheng Zhang Baosheng's wife rolled her eyes and fainted immediately when she saw her husband was killed.

"These people killed Zhang Laozhang, they killed Zhang Laozhang..."

Someone shouted something in the crowd, and the villagers' anger was immediately ignited.

Zhang Sanlang held his father's body, stared at Chen Chang with red eyes and said angrily: "Why did you kill my father? Why..."

This scene happened so fast that Chen Chang and Shui Ling'er couldn't react.

At this time, Ma Liang, a stupid guy, had abandoned the two of them and turned around to chase the man who shot the cold arrow. Facing the excited people, Chen Chang's head was pounding. He hurriedly blocked Shui Ling'er behind him and said to everyone

: "Don't get excited. If you have anything to say, please speak slowly! The cold arrow just now was shot from outside. It must be the thief in disguise. It must be... Oh, why did you hit someone..."

Several agitated villagers had already come up to push Chen Chang. Thank God he didn't hit him with any punches.

Chen Chang didn't care about being beaten at this time, and glanced in the direction of the conversation hurriedly, but his movements were very covert, so as not to alert the snake.

This time I finally saw the person who was speaking. Although I couldn’t see it clearly through many people, the person had a sinister look on his face and a goatee. At first glance, he was not a good person. I saw Chen Chang turned his head this way.

, hurriedly lowered his head and hid behind the person.

Chen Chang sneered in his heart. This person must be a bad element among the masses. If he is not found out, these people will still be incited and exploited by him. He said a few words to Shui Ling'er in a low voice.

At this time, I suddenly heard the man say again: "If you don't leave, everyone will die here. What are you waiting for? Let's go..."

Incited by that man, people rushed out one after another. Even Zhang Baosheng's family, one dead and one unconscious, were lying on the ground without anyone paying attention. Zhang Sanlang burst into tears.

Seeing that he was about to lose control, a loud voice shouted from outside: "Anyone who goes further will die!"

The voice is hoarse, but extremely penetrating.

Chen Chang and Shui Ling'er looked back and saw three guards standing at the door, each holding a hard crossbow in their hands. The string on the crossbow was pulled open, and the crossbow arrow tips were shining brightly. The people couldn't help but stop when they saw this.

Step.

Then, Zhou Yihai strode over like a glaring King Kong: "Let's see who dares to move!"
