Chapter 182: Bandits
Lu Shaobao rode his horse out of the woods surrounding the Lin Mansion and turned onto the road next to it. At this time, he looked back and saw a group of cavalry following behind him. They were obviously coming for him. He did not dare to neglect.
He accelerated and rushed forward, trying to get rid of his pursuers.
Although Lu Shaobao left his pursuers far behind, the pursuers did not intend to give up on him, but followed him stubbornly. Lu Shaobao's mount had been traveling for several days, and it was obviously a little weak at this time, regardless of
No matter how much he urged, the horse under his crotch ran slower and slower.
Damn it, he thought to himself, if he continued like this he would be overtaken by his pursuers sooner or later, and he would have to find another way to escape.
At this time, they happened to come to a large house. Lu Shaobao rode his horse around the wall of the house. Taking advantage of the wall to block the view of the pursuers behind him, he immediately jumped off the horse and slapped the horse on its back, leaving the horse alone.
Keep running forward.
He quickly ran to the high wall of the big house, kicked on the wall, grabbed the top of the wall with both hands, and jumped into the wall with all his strength.
After Lu Shaobao landed firmly on his feet, the image in front of him surprised him.
It turned out that there were a lot of people standing inside the courtyard wall, about ten men and women, gathered together, as if discussing something.
The sudden intrusion of the uninvited guest surprised everyone in the courtyard. Everyone turned around and looked at Lu Shaobao who had just barged in with a look of surprise on his face.
Seeing that something was not going well, Lu Shaobao was about to run away, but he heard a female voice shouting: "Huh? Uncle Lu, how did you get in over the wall?" Lu Shaobao was stunned and found that the person calling him was Susan Shan, the eldest daughter of the Su family.
.It turns out that the big house he broke into happened to be the Su family's yard.
Because Miss Su often visited the Lin family and was very close to the Lin siblings, Lu Shaobao, as the Lin family's housekeeper, was also very familiar with Miss Su. Of course, Miss Su also knew this big housekeeper and affectionately called him "Lu Shaobao".
uncle".
When Lu Shaobao saw Miss Su in the crowd, he felt a little relieved. He immediately gestured to Susan to keep silent, and then he waved to Susan to come over to him. Apparently he had something to say to Miss Su.
After Miss Su came to Lu Shaobao full of suspicion, Lu Shaobao whispered in her ear: "Miss Su, I'm sorry, I'm in trouble today. I was chased by officers and soldiers. I had no choice but to rush into your mansion to take refuge. I also
Please keep quiet, Miss. I have caused you trouble, please forgive me."
"Oh, why was Uncle Lu being chased by the officers and soldiers?" Miss Su couldn't help but become curious.
"This, this... Well, actually, maybe the Lin Mansion is in trouble." Lu Shaobao said hesitantly. He had no choice but to tell Miss Su what he saw when he returned to the Lin Mansion today.
When she heard that the Lin family was in trouble, Miss Su immediately became nervous and asked loudly: "Is the government going to take action against the Lin family? Why?"
When Lu Shaobao saw Miss Su getting excited, he immediately signaled her to calm down with his hands, and looked at the people standing in the courtyard, as if there was something unspeakable.
Miss Su said, "It doesn't matter, Uncle Lu, if you need anything, just say it. These people are my close relatives and friends, and they won't make any mistakes."
It turns out that Miss Su led a group of people to take back the Su family compound today.
Because of a murder case some time ago, which later involved the Su family's new Mrs. Su Fang Su'e, the Su family compound was sealed by the government for a period of time. Later, after the case was investigated, the murderer was also captured and brought to justice, and Mrs. Su Fang Su'e was also sentenced.
After the prison sentence, all the property of the Su family was now inherited by Miss Su alone, and the Su family compound was naturally returned.
Susan Shan helped Master Long establish the Longsheng Escort Bureau and recruited a large number of people from all walks of life to work for it. In the blink of an eye, the number reached more than a thousand people. It was an unprecedented event.
Master Zheng Chengsheng saw how wealthy the eldest daughter of the Su family was, and now she had inherited the entire Su family's property. It was simply a huge fortune that could never be spent, so he let her do what she wanted and stopped meddling in her business.
Although Miss Susan Shan's arrangements made a big noise, because the Su family master has always worked for the government, and now Zhang Tianci is taking care of him, the government does not pay much attention to it. Moreover, Miss Su's actions,
An obvious benefit is that banditry outside the western suburbs of the capital was originally rampant, and many wealthy merchants who originally lived here had to move elsewhere. After Susan Shan's troubles, the western suburbs of the capital are now
It has become much calmer, and there are fewer and fewer cases of looting and looting, and the government is happy to see the results.
In order to arrange for these people who came to seek refuge, Susan Shan had bought several compounds around the Long family, but there was not enough space. People from all walks of life came here in droves.
Only then did Susan Shan think of her Su family's courtyard. It could easily accommodate hundreds of people, and it was a good place. Besides, now that her family and servants were gone, it was an empty courtyard, which could be put to good use.
Today, she took Master Long, Zheng Chengsheng, Old Butler Chen from the Su family, and others to come to the old courtyard to have a look. Recently, she happened to receive a large group of people and planned to place them here.
At this time, a black-faced man walked out from the crowd. He was eight feet tall, with a strong body and a powerful look. There was a murderous look in his eyebrows. He walked towards Lu Shaobao and Shanshan.
Come.
This man looked vicious, but he respectfully bowed his fists to Lu Shaobao and said, "This dear friend seems to have encountered something urgent. Since he and Miss Su are friends, then we are all of the same mind. What's the matter?"
Even if you tell us about the difficulties, we will never stand idly by."
Susan Shan introduced to Lu Shaobao: "Uncle Lu, this person is Xue Feng, a man from the world of martial arts. He is also known as 'Heisha Feng'. Have you ever heard of him?"
"Black evil wind"! Lu Shaobao was shocked when he heard this. This man was a famous gangster in the capital. He once led people into the Fengtai County occupied by the Tufans, robbed and killed the richest family in the city, Gu Jincai's family, and ransacked his home.
Empty and escaped completely.
It is said that this Gu Jincai and his family took refuge with the Tufan people, and also helped the Tufan people to oppress the people of the Central Plains, and did many evil things. Therefore, this black evil wind got rid of this person, and won the praise of many Han people, and it became a good talk.
He became famous for a while.
But after this black evil wind returned to Dafeng, it continued to commit crimes around the capital and robbed many wealthy families. It made the wealthy people with some wealth frightened after hearing about it, and also caused headaches to the officers and soldiers.
This man is not only very vicious, highly skilled in martial arts, and kills without blinking an eye, but he also has a large number of men, numbering four to five hundred people. Many of these people are soldiers who have returned from the rout in the Northern Territory. They are all brave and good at fighting, and even the officers and soldiers have been encircled and suppressed several times.
After destroying him, the government's reward for him is said to have reached as much as one thousand gold, and the legend about this man in the world has become a legend.
Why is this person here, and what is his relationship with Miss Su? Lu Shaobao is a little confused.
