Chapter 559: The tunnel under the floor
On the edge of Deyun Street in the east of Luye City, there is an inconspicuous small courtyard house, which is just the second courtyard. The head of this family is named Guan, and his name is Guan Yicheng. He is about thirty years old. He has always lived in seclusion and rarely interacts with others.
Contact with outsiders. Neighbors only know that Boss Guan Yicheng opened a grain store in the west of the city. The name of the grain store is somewhat interesting, called Guanjiazhuang, but even if the neighbors and Boss Guan met at the door, Boss Guan
It was nothing more than a nod and a shy smile. As a result, the neighbors secretly complained during the chat that the boss looked like a bitch!
Ever since Jiangzhou soldiers entered the city, Boss Guan has been a little distracted these days. His petite and pretty wife only thought that Boss Guan was afraid that if Jiangzhou soldiers ran out of food one day, they would rob him of his food business. So that year he
Fang's pretty eighteen-year-old daughter-in-law kept comforting him, "Master, it's okay. Even if the grain store is really robbed by those Jiangzhou soldiers, the worst we can do is go to Prince Wei's Mansion to complain. I heard that Prince Wei is very considerate of the people."
!”
When the boss heard his wife say that she wanted to go to Prince Wei's Mansion to file a complaint, his eyes immediately became blurred, and he said sarcastically: "We are little commoners, how can Prince Wei take us seriously? I'm afraid that if the complaint is not filed, our butts will be slapped by Prince Wei's Mansion.
The guards must be beaten to pieces! Madam, officers and officers protect each other. Those officers and soldiers are all under King Wei. They came to rob the city under King Wei's order. How can he make the decision for us? Those people say that King Wei is good, but it's just hearsay.
, I heard that King Wei is a murderer without blinking an eye. He has killed many people in Jianzhou and will soon come to Luye City!"
The daughter-in-law of Guan Yicheng, the boss of Guan, is the second daughter of the Qu family, a wealthy man in the city. Her name is Qu Wenting. The acquaintance between Miss Qu and Boss Guan is legendary. It was the year before last, when Miss Qu went to a hundred square meters outside the city.
I went to Delong Temple many miles away to offer incense and fulfill my grandma's wish. When I came back in the afternoon, I met a group of robbers on the official road. In the past two years, bandits have dared to come and rob outside Luye City from time to time. It is conceivable that Jiannan Road is
There was so much chaos. When Miss Qu Er heard that someone dared to rob someone in broad daylight, she was so frightened that her face turned pale.
Miss Qu originally thought that no matter how arrogant those thieves were, they would not attack in broad daylight, right? Therefore, the Qu family did not send many people to escort Miss Qu Er. Except for the two personal maids who accompanied Miss Qu Er to the temple to offer incense and fulfill her vows,
There were four other people, Qu Long, Qu Hu, and their two wives. However, the brothers Qu Long and Qu Hu started fighting with the bandits. When they met, they were all chopped into pieces by the bandits.
Qu Long and Qu Hu's two big-footed ladies screamed in fright, while Miss Dian Er and two personal maids cried together in the sedan.
The road to heaven was in a state of panic when Guan Yicheng, who happened to be escorting a grain truck passing by, met him. He saw that the wretched-looking bandit leader was about to attack a beautiful young lady, but he had already been killed by the roadside.
There were four people, two men and two women. Guan Yicheng was good at martial arts and a very brave man. He immediately shouted loudly, stepped forward with his sword, and killed the bandit leader with one blow.
The remaining two dozen bandits were still not convinced and stepped forward to fight. Guan Yicheng showed his power and cut down more than ten bandits one by one with his sword. The remaining ten bandits saw that the situation was not going well and shouted:
They all ran for their lives, but Guan Yicheng didn't give chase. Fearing that he might be tricked, he only stepped forward to rescue Miss Qu Er who was stunned. Miss Qu Er opened her eyes and saw Guan Yicheng also mentioned
Guan Yicheng was so frightened that she fainted again. Guan Yicheng had no choice but to artificially blow air to revive her. When Qu Wenting saw Guan Yicheng, she kept shouting, "Your Majesty, spare your life!"
Guan Yicheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and replied: "This girl, I am Guan Yicheng, is the boss of Guanjiazhuang, a grain store in the city. She is not a bandit. You see, all the bandits and bandits who came to rob you have been chopped down by me."
Dead!"
Miss Qu Er sat up tremblingly and took a look. Sure enough, she saw more than a dozen corpses on the ground. She was so frightened that she fainted again. Guan Yicheng was helpless, so the clerk from the grain store first escorted more than a dozen carts of grain into the city, and he drove Qu Er personally.
The second lady's carriage also followed into the city. On the way, he asked the two maids whose family they were, so he rescued the second lady Qu again and personally sent the second lady Qu and the two maids back to Qu.
Home.
Naturally, the Qu family was extremely grateful to Boss Guan for saving his life, but Miss Qu didn't live up to expectations. She fainted again shortly after arriving home, and even had a high fever and was talking nonsense. It was obviously caused by excessive fright. This Guan Yi
The big boss of Chengguan also had some knowledge of medicine and some techniques from Zhuyou's Thirteenth Division. After seeing Miss Qu Er's condition, he said that he was scared out of his wits. So the boss of Guan Guan drew talismans and recited incantations, and actually made Miss Qu Er.
Miss Qu Er was frightened to death by the group of bandits. She finally met this savior and wanted to marry him life or death.
Qu Yuanting, the master of the Qu family, saw that his second daughter insisted on marrying, and the boss Guan had a well-off family, high martial arts skills, and handsome appearance, so he had no choice but to shamelessly ask the boss Guan if he had a family and established a business? Guan Yicheng smiled and said: "Uncle Qu, I won't hide anything.
It is said that my nephew has been traveling all over the country with his father to do business. Unfortunately, his father later passed away, and it was only in the past two years that my nephew settled in Luye City, bought a small house, and opened a grain store here, and planned to continue doing so.
I was running around so much that I didn’t care about getting married, so even when I was in my twenties, I still felt empty when I was sleeping!"
When Qu Yuanting heard that the boss was not married yet, he was so happy that he quickly asked shamelessly: "Thank you for being rescued by my nephew this time, otherwise my little girl will definitely fall into the hands of the thief, and the consequences will be disastrous! If my nephew is interested, he will not mind my family."
The second daughter is ugly, but she is willing to be a concubine. I wonder what my nephew wants?"
Guan Yicheng quickly stood up and said, "Oh, uncle, what did you say? The second lady is so young, beautiful and well-off, how can she be a concubine? Since Uncle Meng and the second lady will not give up, Guan is willing to marry the second lady to a matchmaker.
go home!"
Qu Yuanting was overjoyed and conveyed Guan Yicheng's words to Miss Qu Er, who was also overjoyed. The two families invited a matchmaker and exchanged Geng Tie. They chose a good time and auspicious day to achieve good things. Miss Qu Er married into the housekeeper and the couple married.
Two years have passed in the blink of an eye. The area around Luye is not peaceful, and Guan Yicheng relies on his martial arts skills to escort grain into the city from time to time. Miss Qu was a little worried at first, but later she saw that her husband was indeed very considerate.
With my ability, I have killed and dispersed robbers and bandits many times, so I feel relieved.
Miss Qu was also puzzled that Boss Guan, who looked like a weak scholar, could have good martial arts skills. When she asked Guan Yicheng, Guan Yicheng only said that his ancestor was a military general and that the martial arts were passed down from his ancestors. Miss Qu did not doubt it either.
There it is. Except for occasionally going to the grain store and occasionally escorting grain, Boss Guan spends the rest of his time at home practicing martial arts.
, or accompanying his wife, and did not see any guests, and even the neighbors rarely saw him. All he knew was that the boss had a young and beautiful daughter-in-law, who was the second daughter of the Qu family, a wealthy man in the city...
Guan Yicheng sighed, "Madam, I don't worry about anything else. I'm just worried that you are so young and beautiful. Now Jiangzhou soldiers and horses are coming into the city. If they are bandits, I will have to fight them off."
But if King Wei's men get your idea, they are officers and soldiers, how can I still kill the officers? So, we'd better be less public! Since I don't care if someone has good deeds in his previous life, he can marry such a young man.
You are a beautiful, hard-working and capable little daughter-in-law, so naturally you should put your daughter-in-law first!"
When Miss Qu heard what he said, she felt sweet in her heart and also smiled. Being in her husband's house, it was natural for him to make the decision. The couple had discussed it at home and would not go out these days. Not only did she not go out, Guan Yizheng also gave orders to the maids at home.
The servants and wives rarely go out to the east and west wing rooms. Of course, the maids and servants don't know what's going on, but who dares to disobey the master's orders? Therefore, these days, even the maids and servants rarely come out.
It happened that we had just had lunch that day, and there was a thumping sound under the floor of the east wing of the house where the housekeeper entered the second courtyard. A maid named Jin Dou happened to walk outside the east wing and heard a thud on the floor inside the house.
I was shocked and was about to report to the master and madam in a panic. Guan Yicheng happened to come over and saw that the maid's face was not straight. Just as he was about to ask her, the maid Jin Dou poured the beans into the bamboo tube and poured the beans into the house after hearing the strange noise.
After telling the master what had happened, Guan Yicheng had a sullen face and asked his maid Jin Dou to lead the way.
Jin Dou led the way and led Guan Yicheng into the east wing. After entering the east wing, Guan Yicheng looked back and saw that no one had seen him. He bolted the door of the east wing and turned around and pinched the maid's neck. Maid Jin
Dou was so horrified that he couldn't even scream if he wanted to. Guan Yicheng, with a ferocious face, twisted the maid's throat and put the body of maid Jin Dou aside. He came to the bright room as if nothing had happened and lifted up the floor.
It turned out that there was a tunnel under the floor, and five people came out of the tunnel. The leader was wearing a clerical uniform, with big triangular eyes, dark skin, and was followed by four followers. This man with big triangular eyes saw
Guan Yicheng said dissatisfiedly: "Hall Master Luo, why did you come after we knocked for so long?"
Guan Yicheng, known as the Master of Luo Hall, cupped his hands and said with a smile on his face: "Master Niu, Mr. Niu, I was talking to my wife in the house. I heard the sound of the floor in the east wing and came out quickly. It turns out that there is a person in our house.
The maid had heard the strange noise and was about to go in to report it, so I had no choice but to trick her and kill her to prevent the news from leaking out!" As he spoke, he pointed at the maid's body.
It turned out that the person who came up from under the floor was Niu Mandi! Niu Mandi smiled bitterly and said: "Hall Master Luo, you are so ruthless. You are worthy of being a killer. You kill people when you tell them to, without blinking an eye!"
It turns out that this hall master is Luo Yuhan, the master of the Jiannan branch of Luoyuge Pavilion. He has been lurking in Luye City. It was this hall master Luo who sent the killer Ye Zhiqiu to assassinate Tang Jiusheng a while ago. This hall master Luo
Under the pseudonym Guan, he opened a grain store here to hide himself. He also had the identity of the Qu family, a big family in the city, and the son-in-law of the second daughter of the Qu family as a cover, so no one would doubt him. Only a few people such as Niu Mandi knew about him.
