Heishui Village was caught off guard, and Zijin Village took advantage of it and directly attacked its lair.
There were not many people left in Heishui Village. The old, weak, women and children heard the killing sounds and hid in their houses for a long time. They did not dare to go out. The young and strong bandits saw that it was the brothers from Zijin Village who were coming to kill them. When they saw it, they were at a loss.
Except for a very small number of people who resisted vigorously, most people had no desire to fight to the death.
If officers and soldiers come to kill you, it is a matter of life and death, and you will naturally have to fight to the death.
But now it is obvious that there is a fire in Heishan. Everyone can't figure out what is going on for a while. However, Zijin Village has a large number of people. Resisting at this time is no different from seeking death. Many people did not wait for the people from Zijin Village to rush in.
When they arrived, they had already given up resistance and just wanted to survive.
The door of the Juyi Hall was knocked open, and a large number of bandits poured in. The guards inside saw that the situation was over, and instead of seeking death, it was better to surrender honestly. Almost no one resisted anymore, dropped their weapons, knelt down and begged to surrender, and
The people of Zijin Village also quickly controlled the bandits in the main village, handed over their weapons, and drove them to a place where they were guarded.
A large number of bandits rushed to the back hall and saw the leader sitting on a chair with only a few subordinates around him. Those subordinates saw the enemy coming and blocked Zhou Hongji, but they obviously knew they were powerless.
After returning to heaven, everyone looked desperate.
"Where is Shen Xuangan?" At this time, Zhou Hongji lost all fear. He seemed to know that the deadline was approaching. He swept through the dark crowd in front and said coldly: "Let Shen Xuangan come to see me."
After a period of silence, a very cold voice was heard from the crowd: "I thought you had no face to see us again." In the sound, the crowd parted to the left and right, and a path emerged, and Zhou Hongji saw Shen in a long gown.
Xuangan slowly walked out of the crowd.
"Shen Xuangan, what a trick!" Zhou Hongji saw Shen Xuangan, his eyes were as cold as daggers, and he sneered: "I have long suspected that something was wrong with you, and it turns out that you are really the traitor." He said loudly: "Brothers, Shen Xuangan
I feel that I am a ghost in Montenegro. In the previous night attack, this person betrayed everyone and caused heavy losses to Montenegro. Many brothers died at the hands of officers and soldiers. This person colluded with officers and soldiers and provoked civil strife again this time. You must not be fooled.
He is deceived."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Xuangan had already raised his head and laughed.
"You...why are you laughing?" Zhou Hongji was made a little hairy by Shen Xuangan's laughter.
Shen Xuangan stared at Zhou Hongji and asked: "Master, I dare to ask, if I am a spy, why did you arrest the second brother and order his execution?"
"I...!" Zhou Hongji felt as if something was blocked in his throat, but he still said with an annoyed look on his face: "I was just bewitched by you and was confused for a moment...!"
Shen Xuangan sneered and said: "So, by forcing the second sister-in-law to death, you were also bewitched by me and became confused for a moment?"
But this sentence hit Zhou Hongji on the head like a hammer.
Shen Xuangan mocked: "Second brother's contribution to Heishan is unparalleled. Without second brother, there would be no Heishan today. As the lord of Heishan, you executed the pillars of Heishan with just one sentence and a momentary confusion.
What qualifications does a stupid person have to sit in the position of the boss?"
"Shen Xuangan, aren't you leading the rebellion just to seize this chair?" Zhou Hongji sneered.
Shen Xuangan laughed and said: "Zhou Hongji, you are wrong. I only said that you are not qualified to sit on that chair, but I did not say that I want to sit on that chair. Back then, heroes from all walks of life gathered in Montenegro with a passion for the purpose of
What? Master, I'm afraid you have forgotten all about our original intention."
Zhou Hongji's eyes twitched, but he didn't speak.
"The Liaodong Army was tyrannical and tortured the people, so heroes from all walks of life rose up in anger. The purpose was to fight the Liaodong Army to the end and save the people of the four northeastern counties from the fate of being tortured by them." Shen Xuangan said slowly: "But these
What did you do in 1999? You were afraid that your second brother would make too many meritorious deeds, so you stayed on top of the Black Mountains and prevented your second brother from sending troops to fight against the Liaodong Army. If you were an aspiring leader, the four northeastern counties today would not be in this situation long ago.
"
Zhou Hongji sneered: "Do you really think that with just a few people like Heishan, you can save the people in the four northeastern counties? It's simply fantastic."
"It turns out that you don't believe in yourself." Shen Xuan sighed: "You are safe in Heishan, watching the people still suffer, but you only care about your own freedom. If you follow the second brother's plan, Heishan will conquer the city, and more people will suffer.
If the people join us, the situation will be completely different from today. But after you, the great leader, relied on the bloodshed and sacrifice of your brothers to stabilize your position, you only cared about your own enjoyment and allowed Du Zitong to go down the mountain to plunder and rob people's girls. The euphemistic name was just to supplement
What is needed on the mountain, but what is the difference between all this and the Liaodong Army?"
Zhou Hongji said angrily: "If I hadn't been cautious and just rushed in recklessly, I'm afraid there wouldn't be many brothers in Montenegro left."
"Is this your excuse?" Shen Xuangan sneered: "I won't argue with you, and you don't need to explain to me. But there is one person, and you have to explain it to him...!" Slowly
Walking to the side, a few steps behind him, there was a person standing, holding a big knife in his hand, staring coldly at Zhou Hongji, who could it be if it wasn't Xuanyuan Chong.
Zhou Hongji had just focused his attention on Shen Xuangan, thinking that the people following him were all Zijin Village minions, and didn't care. At this time, he suddenly saw Xuanyuan Chong, his soul was gone, his face was instantly defeated, and he said in shock:
"You...are you still alive...?"
He sent Tieniu to Guimen Cliff to execute Xuanyuan Chong. Before Tieniu could come back, the people from Zijinzhai rushed across the suspension bridge and rushed towards Juyi Hall. In their haste, they did not care about the situation over there at Xuanyuan Chong. At this time, they saw
Xuanyuan Chong unexpectedly appeared in front of him, and one could imagine the horror in his heart.
Xuanyuan Chong glanced at Shen Xuangan and said calmly: "Take them down!"
Shen Xuangan was startled, hesitated, and finally ordered: "Get out of here!"
Everyone in Zijin Village was a little surprised, thinking that Zhou Hongji was right in front of them and could be killed easily, so why did he talk nonsense?
Xuanyuan Chong swept past the few people who were protecting Zhou Hongji and said calmly: "You guys also retreat!"
Several people looked at each other. Zhou Hongji was horrified, but slowly calmed down and ordered: "Everyone, stand down!"
When everyone retreated, Shen Xuangan said softly: "Second brother, we are waiting for you outside!" Knowing that Xuanyuan Chong wanted to end things with Zhou Hongji, he didn't want anyone else around, so he retreated immediately, only to
Xuanyuan Chong and Zhou Hongji were left in the hall.
Zhou Hongji looked at Xuanyuan Chong, thought for a moment, and finally said: "I can't help you!"
"You are wrong." Xuanyuan Chong shook his head and said, "I can't help her."
The corners of Zhou Hongji's mouth twitched, and he wanted to say something, but he didn't say it.
"From the day I went up the mountain, I have indeed regarded you as my elder brother, and I can entrust my life to your elder brother." Xuanyuan Chong looked into Zhou Hongji's eyes and said seriously: "I always think that receiving a drop of kindness from others is enough.
I have no other way to repay your kindness to me than to sacrifice my life for you. But now I finally understand that I was wrong after all, and my stupidity killed her."
Zhou Hongji's face was twisted with shame, and he said: "I... didn't know she would commit suicide!"
"Her biggest wish is to return to her hometown one day, guard our hut, wash and cook for me, raise her children, and watch them grow up." There was a hint of warmth in the corner of Xuanyuan Chong's mouth, and there was a hint of warmth in his eyes.
There is no longer a serious look, but a sense of longing: "I promised her that sooner or later I will take her down the mountain, and everything will be fine."
Looking at Xuanyuan Chong's expression, Zhou Hongji felt a chill running down his back.
"I have arranged everything." Xuanyuan Chong murmured: "I can repay your kindness back then and give you my life, but she will take the child down the mountain and stay away from her current life. This is what I can think of.
The only way."
Zhou Hongji sighed: "If you want to leave, tell me, how can I stop you?"
Xuanyuan Chong ignored his words at all. The eyes he stared at Zhou Hongji began to become cold and stern. He walked towards Zhou Hongji step by step and said calmly: "But I finally understand that it is all wrong. From the beginning, everything has been wrong."
You are unfaithful to the court, unkind to the people, and unjust to your brothers. Yet for such a person, I want to work for you, and even willingly give my life to you. This is really ridiculous, extremely ridiculous!
"
Zhou Hongji had already seen the determined killing intent in Xuanyuan Chong's eyes, and his whole body went weak. Seeing that Xuanyuan Chong had finally come to the end, he said anxiously: "Second brother, you... you and I are both wrong. We...
.We were instigated, the mole... Yes, Shen Xuangan is the real mole in Heishan. It was he who killed so many brothers, and it was also... he was the one who instigated discord among our brothers.
, let's not be fooled by him...!" Seeing Xuanyuan Chong raising his arms and holding the knife in his hand, he was even more frightened. He stood up holding the chair and walked around behind the chair. His eyes were filled with fear and trembling.
Voice: "You...you want to kill me?"
Xuanyuan Chong didn't say anything, but just stepped closer.
"I am your sworn brother." Zhou Hongji hissed: "You...if you kill me, everyone in the world will say you are ungrateful. You...you are...!"
But he could no longer say the words, just because at this moment, Xuanyuan Chong was like a ferocious cheetah, charging towards him extremely vigorously. Amidst the fierce roar, Xuanyuan Chong had already jumped on the chair, and then jumped up high, holding the knife in both hands.
