Chapter 16 Borrowing Life 3
What happened here immediately touched the guards not far away. They did not wait for orders. Ten sergeants with round arms and long knives at their waists had already hurled to Wang Junqing's side like arrows away from the string and surrounded him closely with their bodies. These ten are exactly ten of the 500 soldiers who came to Yunzhou with him, and everyone plays a powerful role.
After that, the soldiers of Yunzhou City also hurried over. After seeing that all the adults were safe and sound, they calmed down a little. At the same time, their eyes fell on Xu Jinghong, who was not far away with these adults. Without saying a word, five or six of these people strode forward and surrounded them in the middle. At the same time, the spear in his hand pointed directly at the key points around him. As long as Xu Jinghong dared to act rashly, he would let his blood splash on the spot.
Feeling the threat of the cold and sharp spearhead that was only a foot away from him, Xu Jinghong's heart was also very nervous, and his body did not dare to move. But his face was still calm, and he looked up at the officials who were closely guarded by the sergeant, waiting for them to speak.
Sure enough, after being slightly stunned, Wang Junqing said first, "Don't hurt the wrong person! Come here, I have something to ask you!" The latter words were said to Xu Jinghong. Because of giving orders in the army for a long time, Wang Junqing had a momentum that made people dare not follow his orders. After he spoke, the soldiers who pointed their spears at Xu Jinghong withdrew their weapons, but their eyes still stared at each other and did not dare to be careless.
Xu Jinghong did not hesitate. After removing the threat in front of him, he also strode over. Although he faced the large and small officials in Yunzhou City, and he was just a miner in the mine, he had no intention of retreating. This performance falls into the eyes of people with intentions, which makes them admire their hearts.
"Who are you? Why did you make a sound reminder before the stone fell? Wang Junqing stared at Xu Jinghong's face and then slowly threw a question.
"I'm a miner in this mine, named Xu Jinghong!" He gave a clear answer without shouting or humility, but made the three people make a soft voice. These three are Liu Mo, Ye Hao and Ye Tao.
Although the three of them are familiar with this person's name, they really don't know what Xu Jinghong looks like. Now that I see him in person, although he is only 16 or 17 years old, they will be amazed by the temperament revealed on his body.
"This is an extremely difficult guy. No wonder Hu San will die at his hands." Ye Hao said in his heart.
"This boy ruined my good deeds again. Once something happens, I will definitely kill him and take care of nothing else." Ye Tao made up his mind secretly.
"Hey, I didn't expect this man named Xu Jinghong to be so bold. Let's see what he has to say." Liu Mo thought so.
Wang Junqing couldn't see any thought on his face. He just nodded slightly and then said, "Why did you sound out a warning? You shouted out before the rock fell. Do you know that the rock will fall? In fact, he has long seen that the stone has fallen strangely, but now he needs someone to point out its flaws.
Xu Jinghong only has one way to go at this time. If he turns around, he will not only fail to achieve everything he wants, but even attract greater revenge, so he will risk it. Hearing the other's inquiry, he nodded and said, "Yes, the little man knows that the mountain stone will suddenly fall when the adults approach, because this is clearly someone's hand and foot, and someone wants to kill someone by this man's accident!"
"You're talking nonsense..." Seeing that there was something in Xu Jinghong's words, Ye Tao, who was a guilty thief, immediately cursed, but Ye Hao stopped the following words with his eyes. Ye Hao knew that this matter was difficult to do well, but he didn't expect his brother to be so calm and confirmed the charges at once.
Wang Junqing ignored Ye Tao's unreasonable, but looked at Xu Jinghong and said, "Do you know who I am? But do you know why someone is against me? Is there any evidence to prove all this?"
Xu Jinghong shook his head at this time: "The little man has been in the mine and has been isolated from the outside world for several months. How can he know your identity? I don't even know who you are, let alone the reason.
As soon as this came out, many officials gave a disdainful sneer. The mining slave was too bold. He dared to talk nonsense about all unfounded things, and he was not afraid of the wind flashing his tongue. And Ye Hao took the opportunity to say, "Come on, take this nonsense guy down and interrogate me. I think this accident has something to do with him!"
"Isn't it too early for Ye Dudu to order now?" The soldiers just wanted to come forward, but were stopped by Wang Junqing with his eyes: "Is it possible that you are worried that he is so anxious to take people down?"
"I... General Wang's words are too serious. I'm just worried that this person's heart is not so bad." Seeing this, Ye Hao had to withdraw the order, and then stared at Xu Jinghong with hatred and said, "What do you know? Tell me quickly. If you dare to say half a nonsense, be careful of your tongue!" This is a real threat.
If there was another person, he would have been at a loss in such a situation, even if he knew that he would not dare to say anything in front of Ye Hao. But Xu Jinghong was not an ordinary person. In the face of Ye Hao's threat, he just smiled indifferently and then said, "The general just asked me three questions. I really don't know the first two, but I can answer the third one.
"This mountain stone was deliberately manipulated and controlled by the vine hanging from the top of the mountain. I just saw someone moving over there, so I issued a warning in time!" Xu Jinghong said and pointed to the dark place behind the cave.
Immediately, Wang Junqing's own soldiers rushed over and checked there. As the best in the scouts, they had a keen insight into the trap mechanism, but they found the key in a few times, and then came back to report: "General, as he said, this mountain stone did not fall accidentally, but was secretly manipulated!"
The expression on Wang Junqing's face obviously eased a lot, and he nod his head with approval and said, "You really have good eyesight. I'm afraid that the place you just stood is more than 150 steps away from there. It's dark again, but you still saw it. It's really rare."
Xu Jinghong knew that the key place had arrived, so he hurriedly said, "General Mingjian, although the villain's eyesight is indeed good, it is really impossible to see these inadvertently. However, because the villain knew that someone was going to harm others, he deliberately paid attention to the situation there and saw them do it.
Hearing this, his heart tightened in Ye Tao's ears, but he didn't dare to stop it for a moment. He had to look at his brother Ye Hao and wanted him to speak for him. But at this time, Ye Hao also looked miserable. He didn't expect his brother to do such a thing, and he was seen through by such a bold miner and said it in public. If he said it now, it would only get darker and darker, and he had to be patient for a while to see what he could continue to say.
"Oh? How can you know that someone is going against General Wang? At this time, Liu Mo, who had been silent, also joined the interrogation. He was still depressed because his strategy failed. Unexpectedly, such a thing happened under the peak circuit. If he didn't take the opportunity to attack the Ye brothers, he wouldn't have to be the governor.
"Half of this is heard by the little man from his friends, and half of it is his own imagination." Xu Jinghong said what the mine had done last night: "I also have doubts when I heard my bear brother mention that he was carrying boulders on the top of the mountain of this smelter. This morning, I deliberately came to this area for a detailed investigation, but just let me see the mechanism on the stone. However, because my people spoke lightly, I didn't report it to the pipeman. I won't warn loudly until I saw this situation.
"You mean there are other witnesses?" Wang Junqing raised his eyebrows and said, "Then is he willing to come here to prove this?"
"He must be willing. He is also a straightforward man, and he can't see the conspiracy." Xu Jinghong took the opportunity to praise Xiong Geng, and then pointed to the miners who were looking here and said, "He should be there."
"Go, call this one named Xiong Geng." Wang Junqing immediately ordered.
In a blink of an eye, Xiong Geng was brought over. He was also surprised to see that Xu Jinghong had made such a big noise, but when he remembered what he had said to himself before, he still calmed down and said what happened last night.
When the Ye brothers heard Xiong Geng finish talking about the matter, the look on their faces was even worse. Ye Tao didn't expect that the organ he set up was broken by these mining slaves who had never been valued by him, which was really difficult for him to accept. His eyes were about to spit out fire and kept staring at Xu Jinghong and Xiong Geng. He really wanted them to die suddenly.
But this idea is impossible to achieve, and Xu Jinghong also said something else that made them more frightening. After seeing that Wang Junqing and the others had believed his words, Xu Jinghong said, "I couldn't believe such a thing, but the conversation with another friend made me find a reason enough to convince myself."
"What's the reason?" Liu Mo asked cooperatively, and it seemed that he had the potential to be an actor.
Shi Potian's shocking words gently spit out from Xu Jinghong's mouth: "He said that he was arranged to transport things from the warehouse where gold and silver were stored last night..."
