Chapter 17 Excuses (1)

At night, the surroundings are lonely.
The city of Jishui County has been shrouded in a quiet atmosphere, with the lights being turned off and very quiet.
At this time, although Wang Shoutian was still in a good mood after learning about Li Chengye's wedding, he was still in a good mood. He was sitting in his room, holding a bronze mirror, and he was observing the changes in his fate.
It was discovered that after only a few days, relying on the military and civilians of Jishui County, the white energy in his fate seal had recovered to one-third, and what made him most proud was the faint slightest scent of the aura.
I didn't realize it before, but now after the incident of Lai Tongyu, I have a very obvious golden aura. This is because I have received the loyalty of Lai Tongyu and the kindness of his ancestors.
If you look carefully, there are red qi strands in the faintest view, which is the number of other people with qi numbers.
But they are still very weak now, so they can't see it for a while.
This made Wang Shoutian see hope and destiny, which can gather the aura of heroes and break through his destiny. Even if he is not a person from this world in essence, it may not be difficult.
Just as he put down the bronze mirror and was about to go to bed, someone suddenly called outside: "Sir! Something happened!"
As time passed, a large group of people gathered outside the city, all hiding on the earth slope about a mile away from the city.
These people were dressed in a mess, with everything, carrying hunting bows on their backs, holding knives, swords, sticks, sticks and other objects, sitting or standing, and talking in a low voice.
"Brothers, our purpose is very clear this time to go down the mountain! We robbed money, grain and women! However, the officials here are not a good person. We waited for several days, but we didn't wait for the opportunity to go into the city to get a vote. Since that's the case, we must change the purpose of going down the mountain this time. We can't come here for nothing, right?" A strong man said coldly.
Everyone was silent, and they all looked at the man eagerly, waiting for his orders.
The strong man continued, "Although this city is not easy to enter, this person is not difficult to rob. I have found out that in addition to the people living in this city, there are some wealthy families in this county town who are unwilling to move to the city. Although they are very close to this city, if they leave after robbing, I will not be able to do anything to those cities!"
"The master, but these families have built forts. The forts are deep in the ditch and high in the walls, and there are private soldiers, so we can't defeat them!" Someone raised an objection at this time.
"Yes, but there is a family that has made money and returned to their hometown. However, the fort has not been built yet and is unwilling to enter the city. Hehe, this family is fearless for raising strong men at home, but what are we afraid of? Since they are willing to be fat sheep, we can't be lenient, right? Haha!"
After saying that, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the people in front of him: "What the boss is saying!"
"Very good, you will all come back with a full load. This time I got a good thing and went back to drink and eat meat with big sips!" The strong man nodded with satisfaction and said seriously: "At this time, those guys should have been asleep. Let's go down here. If you are afraid of cowards, it's best to get away from home. We don't raise them on the mountain to make a living! Do you understand?"
"I understand!" The group of people replied in unison. In the darkness, black figures ran towards the direction where the fat sheep was under the cover of the darkness.
A large mansion has been built in an area several miles away from Jishui County.
The owner of the house is a master who retires to the field. His surname is Cheng, and he is 60 years old. He is an eighth-rank official under the command of the Grand Marshal. He values ​​rules and attaches great importance to his ancestral home.
After the war, he happened to return to the land and built a residential land on the former site of his former residence.
Although Wang Shoutian asked him to move his home to Jishui County, he still refused.
In his perception, there was no big threat except the attack of the enemy town. Now that the enemy town is blocked by the Jishui County in front, it is naturally possible to enclose land behind.
If it has been in business for more than ten years, the Cheng family may become a local tyrant.
Besides, he also has dozens of servants at home, so he really doesn't take the thief seriously.
That night, the lights were turned off in the Cheng family's house early, and dozens of people were sleeping soundly, and only a few servants on duty were patrolling.
The Cheng House was built on a semi-aborted town with a high wall. At this time, there were no pedestrians on the quiet street. Suddenly, black figures came from a distance. They quickly walked outside the Cheng House and stopped.
"The boss, if you snatch something, why should we run away? This place is quite far from the village." A black shadow whispered.
"Idiot, haven't you checked it long ago? This family has a carriage, a ox cart, and a mule. Then we will snatch it and transport it back together!" Slapping the other party's head, the leader whispered.
The man shrank his neck so scared that he didn't dare to say anything more.
After looking around, the leader said to the left and right: "Everyone moves quickly and fight quickly."
"I understand, the boss."
Their strength is not weak, and after walking so far, they still don't look tired. They seem to have touched it in advance. After the leader gave the order, they immediately flipped into a side wall.
The boss is at the forefront.
Late at night, the whole Chengzhai was quiet, and they walked carefully inside.
Because I was walking on the aisle outside before, it was not difficult to find Cheng's house, but what should I do after entering Cheng's house is to act according to the opportunity.
First, they arrived near the horse shed and found that there were indeed mules, horses, and several carriages inside. Suddenly, smiles appeared on the faces of these people. With these, they snatched valuable things and left, which was much more convenient.
"There are people here, kill them first. The Cheng family moved back to the ancestral home, which brought five or six hundred tribe members and tenants at once, which was very troublesome!" The boss first discovered the place where the patrol servants in the Cheng family were resting, so he whispered: "Don't make noise unless it is absolutely necessary. We are seeking money, not trying our best!"
The leader of the bandit name "Zhunshan Rat", this person's hearing and vision are the most acute among this group of people. With his extraordinary features, he led everyone to wander around the Cheng house like a ghost, gradually approaching the small gatekeeper who was staying at the night watchman.
Suddenly, the boss was shocked and waved his hand to signal everyone to stop.
In the darkness, a little light flashed by quickly, and a sharp dagger appeared from the hands of the boss.
In front of them, a man who was walking was a bit sneaky. He looked at him in this mansion with a tall figure, tall figure, about thirty years old, with a white face. While walking, he kept looking around.
The boss was about to decide to take action with him to find out where Cheng Zhai hid valuable things.
"Oh, my little heart, you're finally here!" The man suddenly exclaimed softly in a corner, with joy in his voice.
Someone has come over?
Fearing that the enemy was alerted, the group of people stopped temporarily.
Then, another figure suddenly appeared.
The figure looked like a woman. As soon as he met the man, the two of them hugged each other directly.
Seeing this scene, the bandits all had a brief moment of stagnation. I guess even they didn't expect that they would come over to rob and meet a man and a woman in private.
I couldn't wait, the two of them had already hugged each other. The boss looked at the scene with a sneer and waved his hand behind him.
Several strong figures rushed out at an extremely fast speed. Before the two of them could scream, they were covered by the mouths and dragged them to the corner like a dead dog.
Seeing that there was a group of unknown people in the corner, the couple were frightened.
"Don't shout, otherwise I'll let you blood!" The boss said in a low voice to the two people who showed fear.
"Woo woo..." The cold light of the dagger flashed, and suddenly, a man and a woman nodded violently with great awareness.
"Take them away from their mouths." The boss asked his subordinates to pull out the cloth that had just been played in their mouths. At the same time, two sharp knives crossed their necks. The cold feeling made them scared and even their voices trembled.
"Good man, please spare me!" The men and women naturally did not dare to speak loudly under this situation, but they couldn't help but beg for mercy in a low voice.
"It's not impossible to let me spare you, but you have to let me see the benefits, right?" The boss was playing with a sharp dagger in his hand. A face with ordinary facial features burst out with a strong murderous aura against the cold light. He sneered: "Tell me, what are you two in this mansion? If it's useless to me, you can't keep you. Let's start with you, who are you."
He pointed at the man.
"The little one, the little one is the deputy housekeeper in this mansion..." The man had already seen the outfits of the group of people clearly. The chill of the dagger in front of him made his calves cramp.
At the critical moment of life and death, he didn't want to care about anything else, but just wanted to save his life: "King, as long as he doesn't kill the villain, the villain is willing to buy his life with money!"
This man is smart and can tell what these people are doing.
"As the deputy butler?" Touched his chin, the boss sneered and looked at the woman again: "So... who are you? Are you his wife? It doesn't look like you!"
This woman also made her sacrifice. Perhaps she could have a way out when she expressed her identity. She hurriedly said: "I...I am not his wife, I am the third wife in this mansion..."
"The third wife of the old guy?" Hearing this, these people naturally understood that the wife in the mansion had an affair with the servants... Suddenly, a group of people lowered their voices and laughed.
"Three Lady, I'm really disrespectful, disrespectful!"
After saying that, the boss looked at the two of them with a smile and asked, "One is the deputy housekeeper of the Cheng Mansion, and the other is the third wife of the Cheng Mansion. They are not ordinary people. Can you tell me where the gold and silver treasury of the Cheng Mansion is?"
".................." The deputy housekeeper looked pale. This was the lifeblood of the Cheng family. He said that not only would he have no way to survive in the future, the entire Cheng family would drink the northwest wind.
However, before he finished speaking, the boss covered his mouth and stabbed a dagger into his heart viciously. As blood splattered, he slowly let go of his hand and placed the body of the deputy butler on the ground.
The third lady covered her mouth violently and pressed her screams into her mouth desperately.
"It's your time." The boss said to the third lady. He looked her up and down, and asked, holding her chin.
However, the dagger in his hand kept spinning in the third lady's throat, scaring the third lady to the point of being gloomy: "I said, I said everything!"
"Not bad, I'm pretty. I'll go up the mountain together after I get the goods!" The boss smiled in a low voice and said.
What happened afterwards was a bit unexpected. Under the guidance of the third wife, they robbed the silver treasury of the Cheng Mansion and snatched the carriage and mules. When a large number of carriages and mules went out, they were discovered. Amid the ringing gong, they took the third wife in the mansion to run away, leaving behind the bodies of several servants.
