Chapter 33 fourth quarter

The news that Cui Dongyue, the top player in Nanjing, was shot to death shocked the old city of Nanjing.The legend of the Japanese pirates has become more and more intense, and it has been exaggerated to look like a god and demon. A small group of residents have moved to other places with their families.The garrison inspector Shi asked why he only saw the civilian actions of the samurai regiment, but not the military actions? Haidao defense officials are going to severely punish Liu Kai, the head of the ten husbands, but Liu Kai has disappeared, and his two mandarin ducks are also missing.After extensive interrogation of residents facing the street, the following reports were obtained:

Three days ago, Liu Kai learned the news that Japanese pirates had appeared on the color boat "Mediterranean", and rushed along the Qinhuai River with high spirits.Turning another bend, you can see the scene of the samurai attacking the colored boats. When a wet man climbed ashore, he blocked the road. He is dragging a narrow long knife, which is exactly the shape of a Japanese pirate. Liu Kai sternly reprimanded: "Aren't you on the colorful boat?" The swordsman who climbed up from the water replied: "That's me lying." Liu Kai was furious: "You dare to lie to me!"

He waved his hands to the two mandarin ducks behind him, and shouted: "Give it to me." Two mandarin duck formations, six shields and four spears pressed towards the swordsman like a wall.The swordsman was sharp, but he was still forced to the riverside.Liu Kai shouted excitedly: "Force him into the river!" Thinking that the swordsman would escape like that, he yelled again: "Force him to the corner!" The mandarin duck array adjusted the angle of attack. After a bag of cigarettes, the swordsman was forced to the corner of the street, and said: "General Qi is indeed a generation of pride."

The mandarin duck array learned in his youth was only used in his middle age, and it achieved miraculous results once he used it. Liu Kai's excitement can be imagined.While he was happy, he completely lost his guard. When Liu Kai took out a piece of straw rope and stepped forward to tie up the swordsman, he was punched in the stomach, causing him to bend down in pain. Liu Kai spat out gastric juice in pain, and a cold knife was placed on his neck.At the request of the swordsman, the six shields and four spears were thrown on the ground. The swordsman led ten soldiers to the riverside and said, "Jump down." Standing by the river, the swordsman smiled: "Now it's time for us to dance."

Liu Kai smiled and said, "If you ask me to jump, I will definitely jump, but there is a technical problem. Your knife rests on my neck. If I jump a little too hard, my neck will hit the knife edge." Swordsman: "Then you don't know how to control?" Liu Kai: "I'm afraid I can't control it well." Swordsman: "Don't talk nonsense, I'll scratch your neck right now!" Liu Kai closed his eyes and jumped off.After he emerged from the water, he only saw the heads of ten soldiers sticking out of the water. After a while, the swordsmen still did not surface. Liu Kai shouted excitedly: "The Japanese pirates are drowned, the Japanese pirates are drowning!" Drowning!" A soldier said to him blankly, "Behind you."

The swordsman stuck his knife on the back of Liu Kai's neck and directed ten soldiers to swim against the current.They swam farther and farther, and the spectators followed for fifty meters on the shore. When they heard a new round of attack on the colorful boats from behind, they all ran away. I can't find out. ——After listening to the above reports, the Haidao defense officials fell into deep thought, why did they choose to swim, and where are they going?He recalled the addresses of important officials in Nanjing one by one. Fortunately, none of them were located by the Qinhuai River.Maybe they swam out of Nanjing?This is the most reasonable inference.Feeling relieved, Hai Daofang stopped thinking and was about to go home to relax his tense mood in the room of his wife in the fourth room. She was a handsome Hangzhou girl who grew up in a scholarly family and had just been married for more than 30 days.

Thinking of the fourth wife, Kai Daofang suddenly opened his eyes wide.Garrison Supervisor Shi came from Shanxi, his eldest son stayed in his hometown, his second and third sons went to Nanjing with him, and yesterday he married his fourth son, an elegant Nanjing girl whose deceased grandfather was a cultural celebrity.In order to show the importance he attaches to Sifang, Supervisor specially built a separate house for her, which is located next to the waterway in the west of the city—— Ten husband Liu Kai's swimming skills are not good. He has choked on the water five times and his right leg has cramps twice.The swordsman asked him about the other house of the supervisory history, Liu Kai refused to answer, and the swordsman threatened to turn him into a floating corpse.

Liu Kai finally spoke, and the group swam to the west of the city.It was a building whose courtyard wall was close to the river. For the pond with running water in the courtyard, a small hole was left in the wall to allow the river water to flow in.They entered through this small hole one by one, and Liu Kai and the swordsman were the last to enter. In order to prevent the ten soldiers who entered first from attacking and counterattacking inside the wall, the swordsman put the knife on Liu Kai's neck again. But he overestimated the soldiers, who waited obediently inside.This is the back garden of the house. The swordsman ordered them to get out of the water, then took out a rope, tied the two of them with their hands behind their backs, broke off ten branches, sealed their mouths one by one, and then tied the five Pair of people pushed down on the grass.

Seeing that he hadn't tied himself up, Liu Kai couldn't help but feel scared. If he wanted to take him to assassinate Supervisor Shi, he would be in big trouble, so he lay down on the ground and said softly, "Tie me up." The swordsman laughed for a while. With a sound, he kicked him away, chased after him and stabbed him with a knife. Liu Kai passed out and was kicked awake again. It turned out that the knife had only pierced the broad pulp armor on his shoulder.The swordsman frowned, and asked: "After so many years, the army still wears pulp armor?" Liu Kai complained: "That's right, who doesn't want to be real! I'm almost fifty, and I look like a child." Running around in paper clothes. It’s not your fault, we’ve been swimming for so long just now, and we’ll have to change our shape tomorrow, and you have to know that even the armor made of paper will have to be issued in two years. I won’t have anything to wear in the second half of the year!”

The swordsman's eyes showed sympathy, and Liu Kai took the opportunity to say, "Please, I know you are going to assassinate Supervisor Shi, so don't take me there." The swordsman nodded, and Liu Kai stretched out his hands: "Tie me up." Guest: "Jie, it's too much trouble, I'm going to kick you unconscious." As soon as the swordsman kicked him, Liu Kai's head touched his toes, then he turned around, his head fell to the ground, and he passed out, his self-confidence was convincing.Liu Kai was foaming at the mouth, and the assassin muttered: "Did you really faint? I don't believe it." Then he heard footsteps approaching his head.

The swordsman kicked up, and Liu Kai really fainted.The ten soldiers watched helplessly as he stepped onto the corridor with a long knife in his hand, and quietly sneaked into the inner courtyard—— Hai Daofang summoned a thousand-man squadron and asked them to bring the best weapons and rush to monitor Shi Biezhai.He rode his war horse in front of the yamen, but the troops did not leave for a long time. He reprimanded angrily, and the answer he got was: "The best weapons have not arrived yet." After waiting for a meal, at the end of the street in the yamen, the commotion of the people resounded, and two heavy cannons pushed over with difficulty.The artilleryman reported profusely, "My lord, because the armory is in the west of the city and the yamen is in the east of the city, we have arrived at the fastest speed." Hai Daofang almost fell off his horse and sighed angrily: "We are going to the west of the city. It would be great if you waited for us in the west of the city." The artilleryman also expressed his helplessness: "But we received the order to gather at the gate of the yamen." This group of people finally set off, shouting "Catch the Japanese pirates, and the idlers avoid it." As a result, the road became more and more crowded, and surrounded by tens of thousands of people, they moved slowly to the west of the city. At the same time, the leader of the samurai group in the shop on the other side of the "Mediterranean" was patiently talking to four Bohemian women.The four women cried and complained that the colorful boats had been turned into a battlefield by the samurai regiment. They couldn't go home and had been sleeping in the open for three days. A leader of the samurai group expressed doubts: "Is it possible to sleep in the open for a job like yours?" Immediately, women yelled at them loudly. Life and death in the colorful boats are uncertain, they can't get up in the mood at all, you Han people are too impersonal. The leaders were scolded so badly that they were ready to perform martial arts, and all of them were acupointed on the Ya point.But at this time, a report was received that the Japanese pirates were monitoring the Shi Bie Zhai, and Haidao Fang was leading a thousand officers and soldiers to rush there, and they also pushed two heavy cannons—judging from this, the Japanese pirates should be in the Bie Zhai in the west of the city, otherwise the official It will not be so motivating. Out of trust in the government, some young warriors already planned to rush to the west of the city.So, who is in the colorful boat?The samurai group has been attacking under the colorful boats for three days, and dozens of people were killed and injured. If the person inside was not Japanese pirates, but a Han martial arts master, they would lose the tragic color of fighting against foreigners, and the onlookers would only think of Nanjing. The samurai martial arts are poor. But it seems that the Japanese pirates are indeed in the west of the city—after a heated discussion, the leader of the samurai group proposed that there can't be two Japanese pirates?So everyone agreed to stick to it. One leader suggested that they simply set fire to the colored boats, which won the victory, and the people in the colored boats became eternal fans.This idea won applause. After the applause, someone raised an objection, shouting, "Whoever dares to burn our ship, we will fight him!" The leaders were embarrassed to find that the four bohemian women were still in the house. When Haidoufang was anxious about the traffic jam, and the leader of the samurai group was troubled by the four Bohemians, the swordsman entered the study of the supervisory history. Supervisor Shi used to control the Yellow River in Shanxi, and he is an expert in overcoming quicksand precipitation. Corrupt official life has not weakened his scientific temperament.Seeing a wet man entering the door with a knife in hand, Supervisor Shi did not panic at all, and said solemnly: "Understood. I have been full of evil for a long time, and I don't ask who sent you. But please give me a little more time, I just had I found an inspiration to divert the Yellow River, please let me write it down." The swordsman looked at him curiously, shook the Japanese sword in his hand, and the supervisor exclaimed: "You are that Japanese pirate? Unexpectedly, there really are Japanese pirates—with your personality, you just take something good when you see it—forget it, science It knows no borders, my invention can benefit the people of your country, and I think it is worth it." The swordsman smiled and said, "Go ahead and write. I heard you got married not long ago?" Supervisor Shi smiled knowingly: "So you like this, okay, you can go to my wife when I write the project plan, she is beautiful, grandpa is a cultural celebrity, I guess you have met high-quality women in your life. " The swordsman gave a wry smile, and Supervisor Shi said kindly: "Look, it's all my fault, and I touched your sore spot right away. I understand that you are at most a tenant in this country." The swordsman looked him up and down, and said : "I've never worn an official uniform." Supervisor Shi laughed loudly: "It's easy." Immediately, he took off all his clothes and held them to the swordsman with both hands.The swordsman put on his official uniform, pointed to the clothes he had taken off on the ground, and said, "If you don't mind getting wet, you can wear mine." The inspector immediately said, "You don't mind. You don't know, I'm governing the Yellow River. and spend the whole day soaking in water." He changed into the swordsman's clothes, walked quickly back to the desk, and wrote for a while. When he looked up and saw the swordsman watching him, he slapped his forehead: "Look at my brain, when I think of science, I forget everything." .My wife’s room, turn left when you go out, go in when you see a moon door, and the third room inside is her bedroom. It’s easy to find.” When the assassin went out, he turned around and saw Supervisor Shi walking out of the study in his own clothes, and ran desperately to the depths of the corridor. The swordsman shook his head, walked through the corridor, walked into the moon gate, and pushed open the third door. In the room, under the bright light from the window, a woman stood up.Before the swordsman could see her face clearly, he closed the door again.Because he felt a pressure behind him. His long knife hit the ground, swiped backwards, and turned around very slowly, as if ready to lift it up at any time.Thirty zhang behind him, there was indeed a person standing under the Moon Gate. The voice of the visitor was low: "Supervisor Shi's personal guard Han Gang." Swordsman: "I didn't expect Nanjing to have a master like you." Han Gang: "It doesn't count, I've made a move." He shook out a broad ax from behind, and walked towards the swordsman step by step. The evening sun dragged his figure long, and the swordsman stared blankly at the shadow on the ground, as if he had been intimidated by Hangang's aura. Handan Gang seized the opportunity, shouted loudly, and struck down with the axe.The swordsman was still staring at the shadow on the ground, and raised his knife. Han Gang took two steps back and said, "I am the only guard in this courtyard, and the rest are maids and servants. Please don't kill innocent people indiscriminately." Then he fell to the ground, blood oozing from the left chest of his clothes. The swordsman nodded, opened the door again, and sat down with his back to the woman.The woman looked at the uniform of the supervisory historian on his body, and said calmly: "My husband is dead, right?" The swordsman shook his head and said, "He is a cunning man, he escaped." The swordsman was still staring at the corpse of Han Gang outside the house, and asked: "What kind of person is the guard Han Gang?" A woman's voice sounded: "A gambler owed others three thousand taels, lost his wife and sold his property. The day before yesterday He also slept with me, it was midday and the sun was shining." The woman's frankness and naturalness surprised the swordsman, turned around to look, and said to himself: "Sure enough, she is a high-quality woman." The two were relatively silent, and after a while the swordsman said: "I didn't want to kill him, but he wants kill me." Woman: "Understood. Are you here for me?" Swordsman: "No. Another reason." The woman looked slightly disappointed, and the swordsman said, "Do you want to learn how to kill? I'll teach you how to kill one by one. Do you want to learn?" The woman nodded, her eyes full of excitement. The swordsman picked up Hangang's ax into the house and handed it to her: "In another hour, it will be night. Don't light a lamp in the room, hang a lantern at the door of the room, and don't look at people who come, just look at the ground. The shadow of the shadow, as long as the shadow's legs shake, you will strike down with an axe." The woman thought for a while, and said pleasantly, "It's a good idea." The swordsman left the house, and the woman chased him out and asked, "Are there really many people here for me to kill?" The swordsman turned back: "It really is, trust me." The woman went back to the house with satisfaction. Looking at the curve of the woman's back, the swordsman said, "It really surprises me. Can I also ask, why are you interested in killing people?" The woman turned around, showing the curves of her predecessor, and said: "I was born in a culturally famous family, and I was educated to be a lady since I was a child. It's too depressing." Looking at her resentful eyes, the swordsman suddenly had the idea to say a few more words to her, and he warned himself in his heart: "This is wrong." But he still walked into the door step by step.
