Pei Xianyi was able to slip through the net this time because he did not take into account Pei Zhenglun's strength. I heard that after seeing the imperial edict, Pei Xianyi knew that the emperor would definitely clear out the Pei family, so he tore up the imperial edict with his own hands, turned against it, and rushed out of the siege of more than 200 people.
I escaped, rescued many Pei family members along the way, and cleaned up the Iron Palm Gang. I heard that Wanyan Gang's son died in the hands of Pei Zhenglun."
"Did Pei Xianyong accept the order and plead guilty?" He Qizhou asked.
"How can it be? This is not Southern Qi. The ministers will definitely fight if they know that they will die, but he is the emperor's main target, how can they let him escape? If we use the power to deal with him to deal with Pei Zhengyi, Pei Zhengyi's family will also
Don’t even think about escaping with a dog!”
Guo Wen continued: "As for your question about why Hong Lei's death is worthless, isn't it because there are still two figures from the Pei family on the run? Since Hong Lei has a way to receive instructions from the Pei family, he probably has a way to find out Pei's family.
Home is in the nest in the Yin Mountains!
Now the emperor's energy is focused on the east and south, and he really can't spare so many people to search the mountain, so if he can spend some money to get things done, it is the best result.
We'd better not run into Pei Zhenglun, there's no way we can get the reward, so it would be a good thing if we could capture Hong Lei alive!"
"It's better to be careful." He Qizhou responded, but murmured in his heart: after receiving some silver reward, it actually floated. If I hadn't taken action, you might have ended up in Baifeng Mountain, still dreaming about the silver reward.
!
The next day, many men gathered outside Yunlai Inn. Because of the fall of the Pei family, a large number of people were implicated. Many officials and wealthy people who had relied on the Pei family were arrested or killed. There were also many sellers who saved their lives. A large number of
The warriors who guarded the home and the courtyard suddenly lost their livelihood. When they heard that someone paid a lot of money to recruit guards, they came to apply for the job one after another.
Originally, Guo Wen wanted Deren to take a look together, but He Qizhou had other ideas, saying that he was always on tenterhooks these days and wanted to take his wife to the city to relax. Guo Wen had no choice but to let him go and told him to come back early so that he might be able to help in time.
Pick someone.
He Qizhou told his second brother about the matter overnight and borrowed Zhai Biao, who originally lived in Xuancheng, from him. The second brother was actually not very willing to let anyone leave the goods, but Deren had made meritorious deeds after all, so he just reluctantly
Agree.
"It's freezing and snowy, and there's nothing to go shopping in the city. The shops don't dare to open their doors. I know there's a hill in the city where you can see the snow scenery. Do you want me to take you there?" Zhai Biao was quite excited about Deren asking him to drive.
.
"We are going to a place today and will be back before dark. Just drive." He Qizhou said. The felt carriage was borrowed from the inn, and it was indeed much warmer sitting inside.
"Tell me where it is," Zhai Biao said.
"Your family." He Qizhou said with a smile. Zhai Biao still helped him a lot. He should do him a small favor no matter what.
Zhai Biao, who was always eloquent, didn't know what to say. After a long pause, he picked up the reins and started riding the horse. He looked back at the carriage and squeezed out four words from his mouth.
Words: "Thanks! Brother!"
Of course, He Qizhou would not actually go to Zhai Biao's house. If his identity was exposed in the future, his family would be implicated. After sending Zhai Biao to his home in Dongcheng, he drove a carriage to explore the hill that Zhai Biao mentioned.
The hill is also in the east of the city. Zhai Biao said that it was the place where he played since he was a child. The hill is gentle and not too high. A carriage can run directly along the mountain road to the middle of the mountain.
The mountains are full of tall and strong poplar trees, reaching into the sky with their bare bodies. Occasionally, I see a few coniferous trees weighed down by heavy snow. Sitting in the car, Xiaoxue is very happy. Finally, she can see the long-lost green!
In the middle of winter, there was no one or one horse in the mountain. The two of them parked their carriage on the mountainside and hiked up the mountain. He Qizhou said: "Miss Xiaoxue, I owed you a plum blossom viewing in Jiuzhou Pond last time in the capital. It's been a year now. Let's
Let’s appreciate the snow first, and then make up for it when we get back.”
"Okay, close your eyes and stand still!" Xiaoxue, who was dressed like a bear, saw He Qizhou walking under a pine tree and suddenly called Qi Zhou, then shook the pine tree vigorously, rustling
The falling powder snow fell on He Qizhou's head and face.
"Dare you plot against me?" He Qizhou, who had woken up, turned around and pushed the tree that Xiaoxue had just pushed. What strength did he have? All the snow on the tree immediately fell down, and the originally snow-white pine tree was like a
It was as if he had taken off all his clothes, revealing the dark green crown of the tree.
Poor Xiaoxue, who couldn't dodge, was half buried under the snow. But then it was He Qizhou's turn to be unlucky. He passed a total of seventeen cedars on the top of the mountain, and then made a snowman seventeen times, but he could hear Xiaoxue's strings.
A laughter like a silver bell, even if you make an ice sculpture a hundred times, it will be no problem.
The hill is no more than a hundred feet high. Standing on the top of the mountain, you have an excellent view. Xuancheng, covered with residual snow, looks orderly, but a little lifeless;
The continuous Yinshan Mountains in the south are like giants that are so close, giving people a feeling of being oppressed;
The most beautiful thing is in the north of the city. Behind the undulating hills is the endless prairie. The gusts of wind will occasionally roll the snow flakes into the air, and then disappear in an instant. Xu Muxue seems to like to see this kind of scenery, carefully.
Waiting for the wind to blow, watching the snow fall...
I had just gotten a little hot from climbing the mountain, so I took off my scarf, and a drop of sweat on the tip of my pretty nose was quickly condensing into frost... Finding that He Qizhou was not looking at the scenery, but had been staring at herself, Xu Muxue said angrily:
"What are you doing?"
"Let's see if you've gained some weight. Your nose looks better than before!" He Qizhou said.
Xu Muxue turned around and faced He Qizhou and said, "What nonsense are you talking about! I look in the mirror every day, and I'm still no better than a skeleton!"
"At least it's not a skeleton anymore! You can see it's already bloody." Looking back, the last days in the Altai Mountains were really terrifying. Seeing the increasing anger on Xiaoxue's face, He Qizhou felt extremely happy.
"Doesn't that look like a skeleton? Do you want to die? Why are you staring at other people's eyes again?" Because she is thin, Xiaoxue's big eyes account for an astonishingly large proportion of her entire face.
"Look carefully, your eyes cannot change. No matter how disguised you are in the future, I will still recognize you." He Qizhou said.
"What did you see? I will try to make my eyes smaller. What's the use?" Xiaoxue said.
"I see you have eyes for me, and only me." He Qizhou came closer and said seriously.
"Nonsense, you only have eyes for me." Xiaoxue said.
"That's right, I only have you in my eyes." He Qizhou hugged Xiaoxue, who lowered his head, into his arms. Xu Mu didn't struggle and naturally wrapped her arms around He Qizhou's waist. From time to time, there was a naughty wind, blowing
Snowflakes swirled and danced around the two of them...
The life of Zhai Biao's mother was extremely difficult. It had been a long time since any wealthy family came to her to work. If Zhai Biao hadn't brought money and bought food back, I don't know if she could have survived this winter. But even without these,
Being able to see her son was enough to ignite her courage to live on.
On the way back to the inn, He Qizhou saw Huhu's angry Zhai Biao secretly wiping away tears several times. He couldn't help but feel sad in his heart, but he saw Xiaoxue also looking sad. Alas, the road home is still long...
…
When we arrived at the inn, it was still dark, and there were still about a dozen strong men waiting to be summoned in the courtyard of Yunlai Inn. Hearing that He Qizhou was back, Guo Wen hurriedly asked his men to invite him into the backyard. There were several people who needed it.
He went to help make a decision...
The backyard was about six feet wide and three feet deep. In the middle of winter, no one came here, so it became Guo Wen's test ground. Several members of the Lotus Gang were seen standing around the courtyard. In the middle was Wanyan Gangyi, who was wearing single clothes.
He punched a martial artist on the opposite side who was taking the exam, but the man couldn't dodge and used his right arm to protect his chest. However, Wanyan Gang couldn't resist the force of his punch and took several steps back.
"Next!" Guo Wen, who was standing aside, shook his head, asked someone to take the candidate down, and then called a man in line.
"You came just in time. I have punched hundreds of times and I can hardly lift my hands." Wanyan Gang said as if he had been rescued.
"Brother Deren, I didn't expect so many people to come. You can try the rest. Well - you only have to throw five punches. If I can catch your three moves, I will stay." Guo Wen
said.
"I'm sorry, I didn't know this is how you recruit people, Gang Leader Guo. If I had known, I would have come back earlier." He Qizhou walked to the place where Wanyan Gang was just standing and asked again: "There are only a dozen people outside.
How many have been recruited? How many more people are there to be recruited?”
"We have already recruited five. It is enough to recruit one more. But if there are still good people, we can recruit two!" Guo Wen said with a satisfied smile. Those who have been recruited will gather at the inn tomorrow morning and agree to stay for two months.
The salary of a guard is one hundred taels. If you are willing to join the Lotus Gang, you will be paid every month in the future.
He Qizhou imitated Wan Yan Gang and used only five points of his strength, but seven people in a row couldn't stop him. He was persuaded by Guo Wen to return. Most of those people practiced hard kung fu, and only one of them was a concubine with two meridians.
Boxer.
"You can use more force." Guo Wen said to Qizhou, because he also saw that He Qizhou's five-point force was much stronger than the five-point force of Wanyan Gang, who had been fighting for most of the day.
"Okay!" He Qizhou quickly ushered in the eighth person. This time he used four points of force. As expected, his opponent struggled to block the first move and was able to counterattack with a kick. He Qizhou felt that if he didn't use his internal force, he could only use four points of force.
If you use your strength to face that person, the opponent should be able to easily receive dozens of moves. Out of respect for the opponent, the second move is to add five points of force, kicking the opponent's calf, and then punching him directly in the face.
After the examinee and Qi Zhou exchanged a kick, he seemed a little nervous. He seemed to have tried his best to slap He Qizhou's arm away, narrowly dodging the second punch.
After the second move, He Qizhou already knew that the person who signed up as Gu Ting was at the peak of the three meridians. He practiced internal skills a bit like Wushi. His skills were very pure. Most of them were trained in the Tianlong Sect. His physique should be strong and thin.
The pulse is a bit similar to Lin Chuan, but unlike most Zhou people, it is either a thick vein or a medium vein.
