Bringing the Sword into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 47: Bloodbath at Liuzhuang
In Liuzhuang, Elder Fei and the owner of Liuzhuang had already rushed back to the village. Elder Fei was only thinking about the assassination mission assigned by the sect master. He did not care at all about the death of Mrs. Liu along the way. He was just asking about how to summon the dead soldiers.
Master Liu was naturally happy to see this scene. After returning to Liu Village, he arranged for the nursing home to bury Mrs. Liu's body. Master Liu cried bitterly in front of everyone. After a show, Mrs. Liu's body was hastily buried like this.
Burial.
As he paced, he was still thinking about the details of Mrs. Liu's death. If there were any doubts, he would never be able to get away with it in the future, so how could he deceive the owner of the door.
Master Liu then thought about it, but after all, it was Gao Lian's biological sister who died. If Gao Lian refused to give up, it would be even more difficult for the Liangzhou government to deal with it. At this moment, only by deceiving the owner can Gao Lian not pursue the case for the time being.
, if he wants to cover up this matter, he may have to rely on Fei Wei who is waiting for him in the main hall.
Thinking of this, Master Liu couldn't help but reach into his arms and tightly hold the black jade token that could command that group of people. With this thing, he could hold his future in his own hands.
Although those people were paid to do things, they were unconditionally obedient to the black jade token. If they could be controlled by him, let alone this little Wei Wei, he would have nothing to fear even if the sect master came in person.
After paying attention in his mind, the firm look on Master Liu's pale face suddenly disappeared, and he stepped into the main hall with a heartbroken expression.
Fei Wei was pacing back and forth in the hall, feeling extremely anxious. He was ordered to come to Liuzhuang. Before the assassination mission had begun, such a big event happened in Liuzhuang. There were also servants from the Gao family in Liuzhuang. In a few days,
By the end of the day, both Langzhou and Jindaomen will know about this matter.
If Gao Lian knew about this, he would definitely not let it go. Just when he was thinking about how to wipe out the death of Liu Gao, he saw Master Liu entering the hall with "extreme grief".
"Mr. Liu's condolences, what happened after Mrs. Liu's death?" Fei Wei asked, pretending to be concerned.
The owner of Liuzhuang calmed down his "sad" expression and said: "Elder Fei is so interested, I have ordered someone to bury my wife. My wife and I have been in love for many years, but I never thought that today we will be separated forever. Liu is heartbroken.
We must capture the thief to comfort my wife’s spirit in heaven.”
"I am deeply aware of the owner's mood at the moment, but..." Fei Wei looked around and saw no one, so he continued: "But the interception and killing is imminent. If there is any delay due to Madam's affairs at this time, it will be bad.
You and I can't afford to deal with the sect master's affairs. After I returned to the village, I wrote down the reasons for the matter and asked Master Liu to read it." Fei Wei didn't care about the Liugao family, he was only thinking about his own future.
Fei Wei said.
"Governor Liu also has priorities, but in Kochi Prefecture..." Master Liu seemed to be 'persuaded' by Fei Wei, and just now his tone of 'gnashing his teeth' to avenge his wife became much calmer. He opened Fei Wei's letter.
The letter from Jindaomen was full of excuses that the death of Liu Gao had nothing to do with him. I couldn't help but sneer in my heart, this old guy Fei Wei really left himself clean.
When Fei Wei saw Master Liu saying something, he said, 'Strike while the iron is hot': "I told the master outside the village that as long as the master opens his mouth, even if Gao Lian refuses to give up, he has no choice but to swallow this breath. It's just that
If we report this matter like this, can we possibly sway the sect master?"
Master Liu's gloomy eyes narrowed slightly, he thought for a while, then lowered his voice and said to Fei Wei: "This letter is written like this. Not only will it not be able to persuade the sect master, but Elder Fei may also be implicated in this matter. Elder, think about it, this time You came here with a heavy burden, but before the interception and killing was completed, my wife was killed first. The elder also knows that my wife's brother is a high-ranking official in Langzhou. If he talks about the elder and me in front of the sect master, I'm afraid The few words in your letter...the elder's future in the sect..."
"Then in the opinion of the village owner, how should we deal with it to resolve it?" Fei Wei was originally a charlatan, but his future was suddenly confused by the words of the village owner Liu, and he squeezed out an ugly smile. Fei Wei didn't see the daytime expression at all. Arrogant and arrogant, he actually turned from admonishing to asking for advice from Master Liuzhuang.
Seeing that his words had frightened Fei Wei, the owner of Liuzhuang continued: "What if this is the case? There are people in the world who are coveting the wealth of Liuzhuang. Dozens of people attacked Liuzhuang at night. My husband and I fought hard. The elders helped me and my wife fight. They killed the intruders, but they set fires everywhere. Even my wife was fighting against the enemy, but she was poisoned..."
Fei Wei was overjoyed, but thinking about the joyful look on his face at this moment, he was afraid that Liu Piaopiao, who had lost his wife, would feel unhappy. He suppressed his emotions and said: "This is a very good plan. The sect master will not pursue it further."
But then he thought again and said with a troubled expression: "But everyone in Liuzhuang already knows what happened today, and regardless of Mr. Ling, I heard that your old steward was also married to Gao Lian's family. If anyone has revealed any information. .." Fei Wei started to speak but stopped.
At this time, Villa Master Liu had already put away his "sad" expression, a sinister look appeared on his face, and whispered to Fei Wei: "Although those gangsters were killed by the elders in a deadly battle, they set fire everywhere. The fire in my children's courtyard was so fierce that the light of the fire could be seen in Liangzhou City. The fire burned Liuzhuang completely... The nurse in my village, as well as the attendants in the village, all died in the fire... Even my son was burned by the fire. Fortunately, the elder saved him and saved his life."
After Master Liu finished speaking, he looked at Fei Wei with a gloomy look.
Although Fei Wei was ruthless, he just wanted to silence the old steward who came as a dowry. However, he did not expect that Liu Piaopiao would use the entire Liu Village and more than a hundred lives to cover up the matter. Fei Wei was shocked by the words of Master Liu Village. For a moment I didn't know how to speak.
Thinking of Gao Lian behind Mr. Liu Gao, he and his status in the heart of the sect master were clear to him. If he was implicated in the death of Mr. Liu Gao, he would no longer be able to be reused in the sect in the future. It would cost him a lot of money. Wei did not want to give up the position of elder of the Golden Knife Sect that he had spent half his life wandering around. After thinking about it for a moment, Fei Wei gritted his teeth and replied: "If you are not a poisonous person, you will not be a husband. Just follow the village owner's plan."
Seeing that Fei Wei had been persuaded by him, Master Liuzhuang said: "You and I will work separately, and we must leave no one alive. Fortunately, it is still early before dawn, and there is still time to act. I will bring out all the money in the village, and you and I will Go to Lingzhou City, which is the only place Yanbei City must pass on its way back to Liangzhou. After I have settled my son there, I will try to gather the dead soldiers, and you and I will go together to complete the interception and killing tasks assigned by the sect master."
"That's very good. After tonight, I will revise the letter and report it to the sect master, saying that Master Liu endured the pain of losing his wife and still insisted on following me to carry out the assassination that the sect master told me." Fei Wei's eyes were clear. Killing intent.
Master Liu pretended to be sad again and said: "In that case, after this incident, if traces of the thief are found, I ask the elders to avenge my wife."
Now that the two of them had decided on the matter, they left separately.
The old steward was writing fast in his room at the moment, writing down the death of Liu Gao today in detail on the letter. He thought that after sunrise, he would go to Langzhou to report to Gao Lian. He dried the written letter, folded it and put it in his pocket. In the middle, the old steward wiped away the tears from the corner of his eyes. He was thinking about Mrs. Liu Gao's appearance as a child, and then remembered the death of Mr. Liu Gao tonight. The more he thought about it, the more wrong he became. The old steward took out the letter at hand, and just when he was about to write again, he heard There were several muffled groans outside the door.
The old steward put down the paper and pen in his hand with dissatisfaction, opened the door and said angrily: "Madam just passed away, you guys have no rules..." Before the word "rules" was uttered, the old steward felt that his throat was blocked by liquid, and his eyes moved slightly downward. , I saw that the blood had soaked my chest and clothes.
Looking at the maniacal figure of Master Liu holding a knife and grinning in front of him again, the old steward stretched out his hand to catch this man with a human face and a beast's heart. However, he only let out a "wuwu" sound, then collapsed to the ground, twitched a few times, and then died. sound.
As Master Liu sealed his throat with a knife and the old housekeeper died, screams could be heard in these courtyards. Master Liu knew in his heart that Fei Wei had taken action, and all the servants and guardians in this courtyard would become victims. Fei Wei's fallen soul made Master Liu feel as if the weight that had been suppressing his heart for many years fell.
Streams of blood dripped from the golden knife in his hand. Master Liu clenched the golden knife in his hand and jumped to other courtyards.
Not long after, Liuzhuang, a land of 100 hectares west of Liangzhou City, was silent. Even if it was close, you could smell the smell of blood.
There are corpses in all the courtyards of Liuzhuang. The servants are standing here and there. A group of guards are still holding simple knives in their hands, but they don’t seem to be struggling. These people have been stabbed in the throat, and their death is horrific. Liuzhuang seems to have become a Into hell on earth.
It was almost four o'clock in the sky, and two carriages were parked in front of the gate of Liuzhuang's magnificent villa. In the front carriage, Liu Yi, whose face was burned by fire, was lying in the carriage, still unconscious. Several large boxes were filled.
After burning the incense, I saw the fire gradually starting in Liuzhuang. The fire gradually spread, burning bigger and bigger, rising straight into the night sky. In this night, two figures crossed the gate of the villa and landed in front of the carriage. It was Liu Piao who had bloodbathed Liuzhuang. Piao and Fei Wei.
"Master Liuzhuang is willing to burn down the Liuzhuang that he has been running for half his life to keep me as the elder. When the assassination is over, I will definitely speak for Master Liuzhuang in front of the owner." Fei Wei said to Master Liuzhuang. He cupped his fists and saluted.
"Liu is entirely dependent on Elder Fei to take care of him. Alas, this Liu Village is Liu's half-life effort. It's just a fire for the sect master and the elder." Liu Piaopiao hurriedly held Fei Wei's hand and said, turning around to stare. Seeing that the fire in Liuzhuang had become immortal, he looked back and continued: "Don't worry, elder, you know what happened today, I know, God knows, and earth knows. I hope Elder Fei will take care of it in the future."
"That's natural, that's natural." Although Fei Wei agreed in his mouth, he thought in his heart that since this matter was closely related to him, when the matter of intercepting and killing Wan Jun was over, Liu Piaopiao would not be allowed to live. .
This person is cruel and ruthless. Regardless of the doubts about the death of Liu Gao, as for the huge Liuzhuang he has been running for half his life, he will burn it if he wants to. This kind of character and cruelty must be guarded against. Before I come to Liuzhuang. , everyone in the sect said that Liu Piaopiao got such a good job because of the winter wind of the Gao Lian brothers and sisters. Now it seems that this person's methods are better than ordinary people, so he can't be retained.
Liu Piaopiao saw a flash of murderous intent in Fei Wei's eyes, and already knew Fei Wei's thoughts. Her face remained calm, and she looked back and forgot to glance at her unconscious son in the carriage. Liu Piaopiao opened her mouth and said: "
My son has suffered this disaster, and this Liuzhuang has been destroyed again. If this interception and killing is successful, I only hope that the elder can say a few kind words to my father and son to the sect master, so that my father and son can live peacefully under the sect.
."
Seeing Liu Piaopiao's humble gesture, Fei Wei softened his tone even more and coaxed: "If the interception and killing of Wan Jun is successful, I will make a speech in front of the sect master and let Master Liu become the elder."
The two men, each with their own agenda, were talking in front of Liuzhuang's gate. When the fire could no longer be reversed, they set up a carriage, one person and one carriage, and headed towards Lingzhou.

In Liangzhou City, two watchmen were walking on the street. One of them tightened his cotton-padded clothes, yawned and wiped the snowflakes from his face and cursed: "It's so damn cold," although he said secretly.
He cursed, but still sounded the gong in his hand, "Duk duk - bang bang."
"It's the fourth watch in the ugly time, it's freezing cold~~" trailing off, another watchman shouted at the top of his lungs with a clapper in his hand.
With a "clang" sound, the gongs in the hands of the two men fell to the snow on the ground. The watchman stared blankly at the sky. The firelight had illuminated the winter night, as if it was on fire.
After standing still for a moment, the watchman quickly picked up the gong on the ground, banged it hard and started running: "It's gone, it's gone."
