Chapter 103 Breaking the five elements, living and dying together
The guard general of Xiaguang City was shot dead in the street. The news spread quickly to every corner of the town as the defenders and people fled in all directions. It seemed that an indescribable sense of fear quickly enveloped Wu Rongyuan, the magistrate of Wuxian County, who was sitting in the county office of Xiajun City at this moment, also received the news and rushed to report it.
Wu Rongyuan had just heard the report from the officer, and was very surprised. He suddenly slapped the case and shouted: "In broad daylight, you dare to kill the general guarding the city with a cold arrow. Is there any way to do it?" Wu Rongyuan paused, and this ups and downs With his chest heaving, he calmed down and continued to shout: "Come here, send an order to Wang Captou to summon all the detectives in the city, and inform Capt. Qi to bring his men to search for me throughout the city." When Wu Rongyuan said this, he was stunned for a moment. While the two armies were fighting, the general guarding the city died. Wouldn't this be fatal? At that moment, Wu Rongguang said: "Follow me to the city gate."
"Sir, you can't go," a guard said from the side: "Those assassins are still in the city. If the master goes out rashly this time, wouldn't he just fall into their plan? Although there is no guard now, but if the master also has If there are three advantages and two disadvantages, then the gains and losses of the entire city will be ruined."
Wu Rongguang said: "Now the two armies are fighting in front, and the guard is gone this time. If I don't go to the city, the entire army will definitely lose their fighting spirit. No matter how powerful a person is, he can't live without a backbone, let alone an army. Soldiers and horses guarding the city, if there are three long and two shortcomings in this city, how can I give an explanation to the court and how can I face the people of this city?"
"Xie Jiajun is invincible, and Xie Qianqiu is also a top-notch handsome man. With him personally on the battlefield, the Green Forest Army has been trapped there for more than half a month. We have their barrier in Xiagui City, and there is still room for buffering. Your Excellency, you can Now draw up a memorial and send people to ask for help quickly. Within five or six days, good generals will come." Naasi said: "Your Excellency is not defending the city right now, but arresting the murderer first."
Although Wu Rongguang's words made some sense after hearing this, he still felt that it was inappropriate. He quickly returned to the table, picked up his pen and wrote an urgent letter. The last stroke was settled, and he quickly He sent someone to send him out of the city quickly, and he shouted: "Bring me my cloak."
"Sir," Na Si saw that Wu Rongguang was serious about going, and immediately wanted to stop him.
"I've made up my mind, don't say anything anymore, I'll tell the king to arrest him,"
"Sir, if you are assassinated, then Guangcheng will be leaderless. When the soldiers turn against each other, we can't imagine the consequences." Naji Si quickly knelt down in front of Wu Rongguang.
Wu Rongguang looked at the escort kneeling in front of him, and said with some pride: "I don't know what you said, but those assassins carried out their attacks in the busy area. How many people saw it with their own eyes, and now I'm afraid it will spread throughout the city. Everyone is in an uproar. If I don't stand up at this time, not only will the city be full of trouble, but even the officers and soldiers on the city will be shaken. Besides, you and I are both people with imperial salaries. How can we care about one person's life and death? Now is the time It’s time to stand up. Even if there is an abyss ahead of me, for the sake of the people of this city, I will continue as always,"
Just when Wu Rongguang finished speaking, a policeman ran back quickly and said with a frightened look on his face: "Report,,,sir, Mr. Wang Captou... Mr. Wang Captou..."
"Tell me, what's wrong with Capt. Wang?" Wu Rongguang looked at the sweaty servant and said, "Something's wrong,"
"I'm looking for him in the north of the city... Wang Captou and his twenty-odd officers are all... dead,"
"Dead," Wang Rongguang couldn't help but trembled after hearing this: "It was also an ambush."
"Yes, there are stab wounds all over the body, all in fatal places... When I went there, corpses were all over the ground and my body was cold," the guard said.
"Did the murderer leave any clues?" Wu Rongguang asked.
The officer shook his head, lowered his head with some shame and said: "When I was young... I saw clearly that it was the king who was arresting the head, so I... hurriedly came back to report, and I didn't dare to stay for long."
"What about Capt. Qi?" Wu Rongguang asked anxiously, "Where is he now?"
"Here I am,"
This voice came from outside the county government office, and the people inside couldn't help but be startled, and all their attention was cast here.
I saw a radiant traveler walking over. Not to mention his aggressive aura, just looking at the string of human parietal rosary beads in front of his chest made everyone present feel that this person was not good-natured, and his whole body was filled with evil energy. It was even more frightening than the blade. At this moment, in the hands of the traveler, a hand was holding a person's shoulder, and his arms were hanging down weakly, as if someone had removed his arms.
Those standing in the hall were surprised to see Wu Song approaching step by step. They all took out the swords in their hands and carefully stood in front of Wu Rongguang.
Wu Rongguang looked at the man Wu Song was carrying, it was Qi Capturing his head. When Wu Rongguang saw this, his eyes widened in vain.
Wu Song's aura is very powerful. In this hall, it seems as if there is an invisible hand blocking everyone's chests, making people breathless. However, even if it is so suppressed, even if it makes people frightened, but, then Wu Rongguang still straightened his spine and stood firmly on the spot, showing no sign of timidity or flinching. Wu Rongguang pointed his hand directly at Wu Song and shouted: "Who are you! How dare you hurt a government official and break into the county government office privately? Come on. People,"
"No need to scream," Wu Song said, pushing the crippled Qi Captou to the ground and said, "The people outside you have all been replaced by my people."
"What?" Wu Rongguang was shocked when he heard this. Everyone felt as if a piece of his heart suddenly fell, and there was an indescribable panic.
"If you don't believe me, just listen," Wu Song pointed his hand in the direction outside.
"Kill, kill, kill," three shouts of killing that shot straight into the sky suddenly rang out around the yamen. Everyone in the yamen was frightened and felt that they were dead.
"Who are you?" Wu Rongguang knew that his death was coming, but the last fear in his heart disappeared. At that moment, he asked Wu Song frankly: "Are you from the Green Forest Army, are you?" ,"
Wu Song said: "You guessed it right, I am from the Green Forest Army." After that, Wu Song walked into the hall of the yamen on his own, found a seat and sat on it, leaving those who were protecting Wu Rongguang in front of him. The guards were so frightened that they were a little timid.
"On the street today..."
Before Wu Rongguang finished speaking, Wu Song said: "Yes, it was our people who did it."
"Okay, okay, okay..." Wu Rongguang was not afraid to laugh back and said: "Since you have broken through the city gate, you are here to take my head." After saying this, Wu Rongguang paused and said: " They are all outsiders. If you go back to your hometown to farm with them, don't hurt the people of this city. You can take my head as you please. Frowning, it's not me, Wu Rongguang."
"Hahaha,,," Wu Song looked up to the sky and laughed, and said: "Okay, Haoqi, you all can go. Naturally, our Green Forest Army will not bully the people of this city, so you can rest assured." Wu Song was good at it He pointed at the guards and said, "Go away,"
The officers were stunned when they heard this, and looked at Wu Song in disbelief that he was allowed to leave so easily. Was there some fraud involved? Just when everyone was hesitant and no one dared to take this first step, Wu Song coldly Looking at them with cold eyes, he suddenly shouted: "Get out,"
After hearing this, the officers felt as if they had been struck by thunder. They were all numb and hurriedly ran away. However, as soon as they stepped out of the door, they saw many hands flashing out from both sides of the door, each holding a simple knife with a knife on it. It's covered in blood.
The officers couldn't help but stop and bump into each other in confusion, each of them holding the sword in front of them in surprise.
"Didn't you say that you should go back to your hometown to farm?" Wu Song said leisurely: "How can you farm with peace of mind when you carry a knife?"
The officers looked at Wu Song and then at the ferocious officers in front of them. They all hesitated, wondering if they had become someone else's prey after putting down their weapons.
At this moment, Wu Song suddenly threw a cup and saucer from the tea table at hand, and hit a guard on the back of his hand. There was a bang and the simple knife in his hand fell to the ground.
Wu Song shouted: "I want to kill you with a knife, get out of here."
After hearing this, the officers immediately threw their swords in the hall one by one and quickly got up outside.
Wu Song turned his eyes again, looked at Asi standing in front of Wu Rongguang, and said, "Why don't you leave?"
Na Si was obviously a little scared, his legs were slightly bent and trembling, but he still stood in front of Wu Rongguang and said, "If I die, I will die with Mr. Wu."
This answer made Wu Song feel very comfortable. Wu Song nodded to himself and said word by word: "Okay, that's interesting." After that, he looked up at Wu Rongguang and said: "How are you doing as an official? I'm new here, so I don't know, but I can understand your righteousness just now, and you actually have a bad temper towards me."
"Kill if you want, there's no such nonsense," Wu Rongguang said without even a frown, as if he was determined to die.
"I won't kill you. We are the Green Forest Army, not bandits. We kill corrupt officials and treacherous people. Wait for your head to be deposited with me first. If the common people come to report you, then you will be cut into pieces with a thousand cuts." No tolerance,”
"We, Mr. Wu, have always been honest and honest, and everyone in the city has a reputation for integrity," Naasi said.
"Master Wu, I respect you, but I still need you to accompany me for a while," Wu Song said, then stood up and walked towards Wu Rongguang.
"You...where are you taking me," Wu Rongguang said.
"Go and save the lives of the people in this city,"
