***************************

A circle of dim light wheels were covered around the moon, the stars in the sky were silently vanishing, the earth became darker and darker, and the cold wind on the spring night became cold and wet.

Wu Ming rushed out of the quiet north entrance of Zhen as fast as possible, chose the shortest straight-line distance to run across the rocky beach, jumped onto the stone pier and saw two small wooden boats parked by the river.

When he arrived beside the rushing water, Wu Ming could still clearly hear the messy gunshots and messy calls from the town. The gunshots alarmed the boatman resting on the wooden boat. Two sleepy boatmen got out of the small cabin covered with black tents, and suddenly found the tall man with murderous aura standing in front of him, and screaming in fear.

The young boatman who was the first to come out fell to the bow of the boat with his feet weak and his feet fell to the bow. The old boatman on the boat next to him looked at Wu Ming in horror, and his thin body swayed with the bumpy boat, but he did not dare to move.

Wu Ming jumped onto the young boatman's boat and inserted the German-made gun holster in his hand into his waist: "Please send me to the other side."

The boatman said "ahee" twice, and he got up in a hurry and turned around in place. He shivered for a few trembling times before remembering to untie the rope on the bow, picked up the pole and inserted it into the water in a panic. The small wooden boat swayed away from the shore, rowing towards the wide Raobei River, and it took only more than five minutes to get on the opposite side of the shore.

Wu Ming did not get off the boat immediately. He looked at the town with lights on the other side for a long time. He turned to the boatman who had already come back and took out a piece of ocean and stuffed it into the boatman's trembling hands: "Thank you for your hard work! It's not easy for you."

"No, no, no, no! The money given by the uncle is enough, enough! Usually, we only charge three cents per ferry, but only five cents during the flood season." The boatman grabbed Dayang's hand and sweated. Seeing that Wu Ming had no intention of making things difficult for him, he felt relieved.

Wu Ming thought for a while and whispered: "You probably guessed that the gunshots in the town were related to me just now, and I won't hide them from you. The first two shots were fired by me, and someone would definitely chase after me later. If they ask you, they will say that I put a gun on your head and force you to take a boat. After that, not only will I not give you money, but I also want to kill you. If they ask me what gun I use, you just tell me, do you remember?"

"Hey, hey!"

The boatman subconsciously responded, and Wu Ming jumped off the boat and climbed onto the river bank a few steps, without turning his head to the north. The boatman stared blankly at Wu Ming who was gradually hiding into the darkness, and made several chills in succession, and then he realized that his chest and back were wet.

Wu Ming walked along the river road for hundreds of meters north, turned the corner and stopped and watched for a while, quickly left the road and walked into the path to the east. He ran along the sheep intestinal path under the hills, and walked south along the winding and rolling mountain path for more than half an hour. Hearing the sound of flowing water in front of him, he immediately accelerated to climb up the hill ahead, stood on the hills across the river and looked at the town of beating torches, tightly holding his belt and rifle on his back, walked down the hills and continued to walk south along the riverside path.

Huanggu Town is still in panic at this moment. The officers and soldiers carrying guns and ammunitions are running on the streets and alleys, looking panicked as if they are facing a great enemy. Burning torches are inserted into the corners of the street and on the trees. The town government's servants and several tyrants are divided into four groups, carrying bird guns and big knives, leading the officers and soldiers to search door to door.

Inside and outside the Chen Mansion, there are three steps, one whistle and five steps. Under the bright torches in the front yard, the body of Butler Wang and Yang Zhisheng, who was seriously injured and unconscious, were placed side by side. Several officers and soldiers were covering the body with white cloth. Everyone around was silent, and only heavy panting and crackling sounds of torches burning were heard.

After the chaos, several Chen Mansion Guards pulled out the carriage, and the officers and soldiers lifted the commander of the garrison Yang Zhisheng onto the carriage board and rushed back to the city to treat him without stopping.

The old lady was crying in the bedroom of the main house of Chen's house. The eldest lady who woke up slowly hugged the fat sister-in-law who was in pain and cried all over the world. The second wife, the third wife, and the wife Wang Yuehan surrounded the bed and were frightened. A group of maids stood inside and outside the house and were trembling. Several mothers from the Wang family felt scared and felt that they had lost their backbone and ran back and forth while crying.

In the study, the scattered County Magistrate Wang and Mr. Chen had calmed down and listened to the analysis report of the two company commanders who had just returned with a calm face: "The murderer first attacked the Zhenxi sentry card, twisted the neck of one sentry, tied the other into a dumpling, snatched a rifle, a gun stab and all the bullets. From the two shells found under the backyard wall, the murderer quietly sneaked into the backyard of Chen's mansion while I was unprepared, and put a cold gun at the troop drinking pedestal and the housekeeper Wang in the pavilion. After he succeeded, he immediately escaped from Zhenbei. He had just received an urgent report from the brothers searching for Zhenbei. The murderer fled to the dock and forced the boatman to ride a boat across the river with a gun, and then quickly ran north. The two boatmen confessed that the murderer was holding a shell gun in his hand, and a long spear behind him. We analyzed that the spear was obviously robbed from the Zhenxi sentry card."

Wang Daohan's face turned red and white, and his face turned white and blue. The blue veins on his bright forehead were protruding, and his teeth were biting, which was obviously extremely frightened and angry.

He snorted a few coldly and ordered the two company commanders to send people to immediately notify the surrounding counties and towns, mobilizing all forces to capture the murderers with all their might. After that, he waved his hand and asked everyone in the hall to retreat.

The officers and several guards left in a hurry. Wang Daohan, who was still indignant just now, fell to the magistrate chair, with pale face and weak hands. After a while, he raised his trembling hands, picked up the teacup and poured a large mouthful of strong tea, and turned to Chen Jiyao who was in a state of dismay on the side with great concern:

"Brother, two deaths and one injury overnight are nothing, but one of them is the security commander who was just appointed by the province. I can't hide it even if I want to hide it. Tomorrow it will cause a lot of controversy. The whole county knows this if I had known this, when you sent that evil son to the county in August last year, I should have ordered him to be killed immediately. I originally wanted to wait until the news came to the end before quietly cleaning up the mess, but the Red Bandit suddenly robbed the prison and then made this tragic scene today, causing huge harm. I dare say that this incident will spread to Nanchang within three days to shake the whole province! I am in chaos and regretful. In the prison robbery incident in August last year, I risked my life to lead the troops to fight back, quickly restore order and comfort all directions, and secretly took out 20,000 oceans to deal with the matter, so I saved the county magistrate's black hat. Now that I have such a big missed son, I am not lucky!"

Chen Jiyao's face was full of pain: "My brother, I am also confused. It's all because of the confusing thing that happened back then. He was greedy for a few nights of love and gave birth to that kind of evil seed. After knowing it, I was still indifferent and had no courage to eliminate hidden dangers, which led to the situation today. I regretted it so much! I knew that my sins were serious and could not help me. I would prepare 20,000 oceans for my brother to solve it later..."

Wang Daohan waved his hands repeatedly: "Don't you understand my brother's character? If my sister hadn't been narrow-minded and based on her brother's personality, even if she regretted her helplessly, she would have brought the Wu family and son back to settle it. No matter how you say it, she would have done it back and settled her. If she had done it back then, not only would it not cause a disaster today, but her brother would have multiple descendants. It's a pity, it's a pity! It's better not to say this, the brother doesn't need to blame himself too deeply. You and my brother have been respectful and familiar with each other for decades and worked together. How have you ever been polite in money? Although my Wang family cannot be said to be rich in all directions, there is no problem with giving out 100,000 yuan in cash. The brother does not need to worry about it. What should I worry about is how to control the influence. I am worried that the matter in front of me may not be solved by money. If I can't do it well, not only will the reputation of my brother be damaged, but my life's future will be over!"

"My brother, is it really so difficult?" Chen Jiyao leaned out in pain.

"It's tricky!"

Wang Daohan shook his head in pain, and his two beards shaking with the loose flesh on his face: "Brother also knows that in August last year, the Red Bandits broke into my Shangrao County. I led the way and used my life to quickly eliminate the disaster and secretly resolved the money. As a result, the province not only did not punish but gave me rewards, which was a great blessing in disguise."

Wang Daohan poured tea to moisten the dry throat: "In November, a sudden riot of the Red Bandits in the Hengfeng and Yiyang counties in the west was suddenly seen. Fang Zhimin from Yiyang, Shao Sanyizi, Huang Ruizhang from Hengfeng and other Red Party leaders encouraged thousands of restless mud legs to capture the two counties. The Red Bandits leader from Jiangxi, Fujian and Guangdong were echoed from each other, and the momentum was so great that the whole country was shocked. In the end, although the provincial government dispatched heavy troops to defeat the Red Bandits and restore Heng and Yi counties, it took more than two months. After the bandits in the two counties were eliminated at the end of last month, the county magistrates of the two counties were immediately dismissed from office and investigated, and the six garrison captains and police chiefs shot three of them!"

"Ah? The province's handling is so severe?" Chen Jiyao was even more worried in shock.

"Yes! Nanjing Central Committee held special meetings on Jiangxi's situation many times and issued strict orders. Last year, the Central Committee attached more importance to the Jiangxi ** armed forces. He called Chairman Lu Diping three times to inquire about the specific situation of the Red Bandits in Jiangxi. Chairman Lu issued two important instructions to fully eliminate the Red Bandits and protect the country and the people at the beginning of the year and the beginning of last month, and formed an inspection team to inspect the province. This is his first statement since he served as the provincial chairman. It can be seen that the situation has changed drastically, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are no longer in harmony. From the central government to the local government, it must understand the truth. At this critical moment, such a major event has occurred. Alas!" Wang Daohan sighed weakly.

Chen Jiyao was filled with guilt and anger. He stood up slowly in silence for a moment, walked back and forth in the hall several times, and his mind slowly returned to the clarion: "My brother, this matter must be very cautious. Brother Yu thought that while carrying out the full force of the roundup, it would be best to relate this matter to Fang Zhimin and others in Yiyang. He claimed that today's attackers were not one person, but a group, who had come from Heng and Yi counties to commit the crime. The reason was that during the Shangrao anti-country process in August last year, he led the lead and decisively killed several Communist leaders, completely eliminating the Communist forces in the entire Shangrao area. Therefore, he was suffering from bloody revenge from today's Communist armed forces. In this way, he might be spared."

"Great! Brother's words made me suddenly understand and the problem was solved! Brother is indifferent and far-reaching, and always unwilling to become an official. What a pity, what a pity!" Wang Daohan slapped the table with excitement, swayed the hem of the long shirt and stood upright, respectfully saluting Chen Jiyao.

Chen Jiyao hurriedly stepped forward and held up: "Why are you? You are so ashamed of your foolish brother..."

Wang Daohan's face reappeared: "Brother, I'll write an emergency report now. At dawn, I sent someone to Nanchang quickly, and then immediately held an emergency meeting to let insiders and all officers and soldiers strictly observe the confidential and unified caliber."

"slow!"

Chen Jiyao held Wang Daohan's hand and said with great concern: "Brother, there is another thing to bother me. I'll send someone to Nanchang to Nanchang to be my companionship. I can't stay at home anymore. Yuehan received a new type of education. He is gentle and strong on the outside. He stayed at home alone and was frowning. He is gradually fading. In addition, there have been frequent accidents over the past few months. Moreover, she met the evil seed several times, thinking about the life-saving grace of the evil seed. If we hadn't tried our best to hide it, I would have been out of trouble outside. Brother Yu was worried all day long! Your sister is impatient and suspicious, and she doesn't like Yue Han very much. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have resentment. If such a big thing happened again today, your sister would be extremely sad. If Yue Han continued to stay at home, she would have been in chaos and no peace!"

Wang Daohan nodded frequently and agreed: "Since this is the case, let's send Yuehan girl to Nanchang as soon as possible. This is a big deal!"

As he was speaking, the sound of the dishes breaking suddenly came from the inner room, followed by Wang Yuehan's painful screams and the great wife's deep scolding. The inner room suddenly cried and cried.
