Chapter 31 and gas end
Outside the courtyard, hundreds of soldiers holding weapons have been surrounded from all sides. Many of them have long bows and hard crossbows, and the arrows have been stringed. As long as someone dares to show their heads from it, they will be the first arrow. And this posture was immediately seen by other people around the yard, so scared that they dared not make a sound. They hurriedly hid in their respective homes and closed the doors tightly.
"Lord, someone has surrounded our yard outside!" Soon, the people of the movie killer reported the bad news to the two masters inside. After hearing this, the two were not too surprised, because this was what they expected, especially the old man with a wry smile: "This Xu Jinghong is really great. In less than half an hour, he found our foothold and laid a trap."
"Gun off and tell everyone not to act rashly. Let's go and talk to them now." After looking at the old man, the teenager had the same idea at the same time. Originally, after learning about Xu Jinghong's amazing ambition from Xugou, they had already had a desire to retreat, and now they have naturally strengthened their determination not to ask about it.
After all, Shadow Killing Hall is a sect in the world. Even if it had an inextricable relationship with the imperial court in the past, it is not a vassal of the imperial court now. They really don't have the intention to eradicate evil and ambitious people for the court at the cost of their lives. The killing and injury revealed by Xu Jinghong is really too big. They can't afford to take their lives for tens of thousands of taels of silver, so they have made up their mind at this moment.
Although the yard has been surrounded by the people he brought, Xu Jinghong did not immediately order people to attack. As the saying goes, the name of a man, the shadow of the tree, he still dares not wait for a master like Shadow Killing Hall. He knew that as long as they controlled this place, it was not too late to take action once they really took risks.
After waiting for a moment, a scene that surprised him appeared. Instead of those masters who could fly high and low, he flew out of the courtyard, but saw that the door was gently pulled open, and then an old man and a teenager came out. There was no murder on their bodies, and there was a flat smile on their faces. It seemed that there was no threat in front of them. They just went out on the street.
However, after carefully observing the two, Xu Jinghong still tightened his heart, because he had recognized the identity of these two people. It was the hero who had been a legend in the world, but had never been seen with his own eyes.
Hefa Tongyan is not a nickname for one person, but a nickname for two people. The old man has crane hair, and the young man is a childlike face. The two also have a lot of fame on Jianghu Road, but they have really seen their real purpose, but few of them. I just didn't expect that I would see these two mysterious figures here today who are enough to be on an equal footing with the masters of the Cao Gang and the Salt Gang.
It was the old man who said first: "He Yuhuan has seen Lord Du Si!" With that, he arched his hand, and at the same time, the teenager behind him also saluted with fists and said his name: "Caomintong Sanchun!"
"Crane-haired childlike face?" Xu Jinghong did not return the gift, but stared at all the actions of the two of them and asked in a voice without any emotion.
"A bitch, Lord He Lao, remember!" The old man He Yuhuan smiled, but admitted his identity.
"You are the people of the Shadow Killing Hall, and how many times has the Shadow Killing Hall offend my King Law of the Song Dynasty? Now that I have brought people to arrest you, how dare you come out? Is it true that the court law is a decoration? Xu Jinghong asked coldly with a cold face.
"Oh? Why did you say this? Although we have this lowly nickname, we have never killed a person. What evidence does the adult say that we have violated the law of the imperial court? Tong Sanchun asked with a smile.
This made Xu Jinghong a little speech. It's really difficult to say any famous evidence. Because the people in the Shadow Killing Hall have always been clean and neat, and basically don't leave any handle, only that shadow killing sticker. But what does this represent? What's more, the two people he faced were only the mastermind behind the murder hall, and they had never killed anyone with their own hands, which made him unable to find a reasonable reason to condemn them.
"Lord Dusi, you and I are all understanding people. Don't talk about those empty-headed things anymore." Seeing this, He Yuhuan followed: "In fact, we know what the purpose of this is. Nowadays, in our house, there are only more than 30 people, and half of them are ordinary people. If you really order an attack, we think it is impossible to preserve it.
"Oh? In this case, how dare you two come out and talk to me?" Seeing the other party speak so weakly, Xu Jinghong was even more uncertain about the situation, because he didn't understand what medicine was sold in the other party's gourd.
"Because people are happy to live and die, we always have to fight for our own survival. The adults came here to keep us from talking, so we can now assure the adults that what we know will not be known to outsiders, and we can also leave the beam now under the supervision of adults. I don't know if adults can feel at ease?" He Yuhuan said again.
Xu Jinghong narrowed his eyes and looked at the other party's expression, as if the words were all from the bottom of his heart. But he really can't figure out why the other party is so weak, which is inconsistent with their position in the world. After a long time, he smiled and said, "You have a good calculation, but as far as I know, if you want someone to keep it a secret, the best way is to turn him into a dead man. But now you propose to let me leave Beijing, which is really unacceptable.
"What adults said is also common sense, but since it is common sense, there are always special situations, and today's things are very special." The young boy Sanchun continued his words and said, "The success or failure of what you want to do is only in these days. As long as we don't ruin the good things of adults in these days, we can't pose a threat to adults. Since we don't have any threat, why do adults have to shout to kill us?
"What's more, even if there are only more than ten people here to fight, they must be able to believe that in the name of our shadow killing hall in the world, these more than 10 people will make the National Security Department pay a heavy price. Do you admit it?"
Xu Jinghong was stunned, but had to admit that he was right. Even if it is true that there are only a dozen shadow killing masters in the yard as they said, it is not easy to kill them all, and there will certainly be a lot of damage on their own side. And now what I can really trust is this manpower, and I really don't want to fold some here.
But he still had concerns and looked at the two: "You sounded well, but who can guarantee that you are not procrastination? As far as I know, you have a close relationship with that person. How can you be silent on this matter?
Seeing that Xu Jinghong had been a little moved by himself, which made the two of them feel very happy, so He Yuhuan said, "What the lord said is a thing of the past. Just half a year ago, we had drawn a clear line with him. Now the Shadow Killing Hall is no longer the original Shadow Killing Hall, and we have completely become people in the world.
"Oh?" Xu Jinghong frowned slightly, but still didn't believe it: "In this case, why do you still send people to our country? Don't say that this is caused by your interests..."
"We were indeed entrusted to send two good hands to sneak into the National Security Division, but that's a deal. Our cashier is just doing things for him."
"In this case, you still have to send the message to that person, so why should I keep you?"
Since it is a transaction, we can go back on our word. If we find that the price we have to pay for this transaction is so great that we can't make up for how much money we collect, then we can return the money and push the transaction.
Listening to him swearing so hard, Xu Jinghong's murderous heart was reduced a little. After pondering for a while, he asked the key question: "Even so, I still can't fully trust you. Unless you can give me a satisfactory reason, we must meet today.
"In fact, adults already think that our proposal is very good, but they haven't thought of the benefits to themselves and the disadvantages that it will bring to you." Tong Sanchun laughed and said, "Then let me explain it to the adults. The advantage is that the people under adults will not suffer casualties, so that you can fully apply these hands to more important events. This benefit may not be a big deal in the eyes of adults, but if adults must get rid of us, the consequent disadvantages will be great.
"One, the adult thought that if you were a killer here, will the people over there know about it? Once they know that you have done this, they are afraid that they will immediately become suspicious. At that time, the adult originally wanted to keep it secret, but it leaked the secret. Second, it is my ability to kill. My lord, even if you can really do something this time, you have hurt me and killed so many people. Do you think our shadow killing hall can really swallow this breath? I'm afraid that from now on, you will have to be careful from time to time, in case an assassin will appear around you. Presumably, adults don't want to live so frightened in the future, do they? After saying this last sentence, he looked at Xu Jinghong again with a smile.
Xu Jinghong fell into meditation again. He didn't expect that the other party's eloquence was so good, and every point was on the key point, which made him really come up with a different idea. After a long time, Xu Jinghong smiled and said, "Your tongue is really sharp, and it is not inferior to the ability to kill people in the shadow hall. You're right. In this matter, if I do it, the disadvantages will indeed be much less than what I get.
"Adults are also very human, and I admire them for listening to the opinions of others." He and Tong complimented at the same time.
"I can promise not to do anything to you. But I also have a condition!"
"It doesn't matter if you say it, we don't obey!" The two looked at each other and looked back at him.
"You must leave Beijing immediately, and you will not participate in this kind of struggle from now on. As for what you will do in the world in the future, it is not something that I, a member of the court, can control. Xu Jinghong made a not harsh request.
"This is exactly what we have always wanted to see, just follow what the adults have said!" The two nodded without thinking: "We can leave the capital as long as the adults can open a way."
"Make way, let them go!" Xu Jinghong did not delay any more and immediately gave the order.
The soldiers behind them actually don't understand much about their conversation. Originally, they thought that they would inevitably wait to fight with these people in the world, but they didn't expect that in the end, it was a peak and end. This made the soldiers secretly relieved. To be honest, they were really not sure that they would fight with these masters in the world. So after receiving Xu Jinghong's order, they gave way.
Then, a group of movie killers came out of the yard. Many of them are still holding the weapons around their waists, obviously still being on guard. But since the soldiers were ordered by Xu Jinghong, of course it was impossible to do it with them. Xu Jinghong did not have the habit of going back on his head, so he sent several people to watch them leave Daliang City from the east gate.
"Wow..." After exhaling a breath in his chest for a long time, Xu Jinghong felt a little relieved. In this way, my worries are reduced, and things are not big, and they can be covered up.
"Team, shall we let them go like this? Aren't you afraid that they will repent?" Among them, only militants like Xiong Geng said something unpleasantly.
Xu Jinghong patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Old bear, not everything must be solved by force. It is more beneficial for us to drive them out of the capital without conflict this time. As for you worrying about their repentance, you are even more worried. As soon as they leave Beijing, I'm afraid they won't come back. They were originally people in the world, but now it is their greatest desire to return to the world without asking about the affairs of the dynasty.
"Oh." Xiong Geng answered clearly and said nothing more. He has one advantage, that is, he trusts and obeys Xu Jinghong very much. As long as he says it, Xiong Geng will fully believe it.
Back to the National Security Department, Sun Zaiyuan and Chu Lian'er were also very happy to see that they had returned safely. When asked, after learning that the people in the movie killing hall voluntarily left the capital, Sun Zaiyuan nodded with admiration and said, "The lord can control his murderous heart, which is a step further."
"Hey, I'm not a butcher. Killing is just a means, not an end. Since you can solve the problem by bloodless means, of course, it's better not to do it. Xu Jinghong smiled and then asked, "Old dog, I asked you to send someone outside to find out how was going on spreading the news of the food destroyed?"
"There have always been brothers outside." The old dog replied with a smile. This thing that makes the thief catch the thief really makes people feel a little laugh.
"Call them back. We have found a suspicious person." Xu Jinghong ordered.
Ah? Who is it? Team Zheng, we haven't taken action against the prince and King Yong yet. Why did we find anyone? The old dog is a little puzzled.
"Then what name do you think we use to go to Dongcheng today?" Xu Jinghong replied, "Just think of the person in the shadow killing hall in the yard as the person we found out to leak the news. In this way, they can give an explanation to the above. In addition, they went to the hospital, which just means that they were guilty and ran away first.
"So that's it! What the team is thinking about is that I will call everyone back. The old dog hurriedly answered.
"Next, it's time to make the fire in the capital burn more vigorously, and it's time to spread the chaos, so that other states and counties can also take action." Xu Jinghong then touched his short beard and said.
"Is the lord going to use the power of those families?" Sun Zaiyuan asked with understanding.
"Yes, since we have cooperated with them, we should make good use of them. And I think this is also a situation that Ye Mingyang and others hope to see. They will definitely do their best to help us do this big. Xu Jinghong nodded with a smile: "So, we should go to the dungeon now, invite them up and have a good talk."
At dusk, Huang Yue walked out of the bedroom after finally serving the emperor in the palace. Then he saw that the cronies he used to contact the people he used to contact the Shadow Killing Hall were waiting there. Because of his identity and responsibilities, it is impossible for him to often go out of the palace to contact people in the shadow killing hall, so he has cultivated several cronies and often do things for this.
Now when he saw the appearance of this cronin, he knew that something had happened to the Shadow Killing Hall, so he went over and asked, "What, have you found anything on their side?"
"No...no..." The cronin looked at Huang Yue nervously, but didn't know what to say.
"How can you talk about it? Say something quickly." Huang Yue frowned with some dissatisfaction.
"Yes... the little one just went there to find out the news, but he found that there was no one in the courtyard."
"What?" Huang Yue stretched out his hand and pulled him in front of him. He stared into his eyes and said, "Say it again, what did you see?"
"The people in the yard are gone. They have moved away!"
"Move away? How did you move away? When did they leave?" As Huang Yue said, the strength in his hand was a little greater.
The cronin immediately cried out in pain, and then said with pain, "I don't know this little one. They were still here yesterday, but they disappeared in a day..."
At this time, Huang Yue was even more puzzled. He narrowed his eyes and staggered in the yard outside the bedroom and thought about it...
