As Qi Xuansu got closer and closer to the county government, someone finally discovered this uninvited guest. Three Qingluan guards wearing ponchos blocked his way.
The leader of them, Qingluan Guard Xiao Qi, took a step forward and shouted loudly: "Qingluan Guard is handling the case, and everyone else is staying away!"
Qi Xuansu asked calmly: "Is Li Hongwen in the county government office?"
The sound was not loud, but it clearly covered the sound of rain and reached the ears of the three Qingluan guards.
The faces of the Qingluan guards suddenly changed, and without any hesitation, the three long swords were unsheathed at the same time.
But it's not the "Slender Tiger Sword", but the "Changyang Sword" worn by ordinary Qingluan Guards.
Qingluan Guards are also small banners, and they are also divided into superiors and inferiors. Just like the two Qingluan Guards in the county government who are trying to test hundreds of households, one of them has spent most of his life to get to the position of trying to test hundreds of households. I am afraid he will die in this life.
In this position, the other one has climbed up to the position of trial 100 households at just 3 years old, and there is even hope to go further and remove the word "trial". Between the two, there is a clear judgment.
The three Qingluan Guards rushed towards Qi Xuansu in a pin-shaped formation. The one at the front was the Qingluan Guard Xiaoqi, and on the left and right flanks were two school lieutenants. All three of them were equipped with the Qingluan Guard's "Flying Squirrel Armor" and "Long Guard".
"Yang Dao", and then use the three-talent formation to defend the enemy, which is very difficult to defeat.
It's a pity that they met Qi Xuansu.
Qi Xuansu turned sideways to avoid the knife that struck his head, and took advantage of the situation to hold Qingluan Wei Xiaoqi's knife-holding wrist. With just a little force, Qingluan Wei Xiaoqi couldn't hold the "Chang Yang Dao" in his hand, and his fingers loosened.
The long knife fell into Qi Xuansu's hand.
Qi Xuansu held the "Changyang Sword" with his backhand and blocked it at will, shocking the other two Qingluan Guards and staggering back. Qi Xuansu kept walking and passed by Qingluan Guard Xiaoqi, who had no sword in his hand.
The Qingluan Guard Xiaoqi's stomach was completely opened, and his intestines instantly flowed all over the floor.
With a look of disbelief on his face, he covered his lower abdomen with both hands, slowly fell to his knees and died.
The blood quickly disappeared in the heavy rain.
When the other two Qingluan Guardsmen saw this scene, their faces were full of horror.
The "Flying Squirrel Armor" was like paper in front of this sword.
But before the two of them could recover from their shock, Qi Xuansu had already rushed towards them.
The blade of the "long sheep knife" in his hand cuts through the rain curtain, splitting the falling raindrops into two and turning them into a small water splash. The water splashes are connected into a line, forming a line visible to the naked eye in the rain curtain.
Waterline.
The next moment, Qi Xuansu passed by the two Qingluan guards.
Then a bright red line appeared on their throats, and bright red blood slowly oozed out.
The "Changyang Dao" in the hands of the two Qingluan guards fell to the ground, they covered their throats with their hands, their eyes widened, and they fell to the ground unwillingly.
After killing three people, Qi Xuansu stopped.
Although the rain was noisy at this time, he could still hear the sound of intensive footsteps stepping on the stagnant water from the fierce rain.
Qi Xuansu raised his eyes and looked up. Behind a heavy curtain of rain, at the end of the long street, there was a large figure wearing a poncho walking quickly towards this direction.
This is when a large number of Qingluan Guards arrived.
Qi Xuansu threw the "Chang Yang Dao" forward.
The rain curtain was cut into a thin line.
This knife directly penetrated the chest of Qingluan Wei, who was at the front of the entire team. The huge force carried by the knife forced him to move backwards and collided with the people behind him.
They saw the "Changyang Sword" sinking into the first Qingluan Guard's chest to the hilt. At the same time, it also pierced the second Qingluan Guard behind him. The tip of the knife that came out of his back just penetrated the second Qingluan Guard behind him.
The hearts of the three Qingluan Guards.
The three of them were stabbed with candied haws on a knife.
Seeing that six Qingluan Guard masters died in the hands of that young man in a very short period of time, Qingluan Guard Chief Banner, who had the highest official position present, couldn't help but feel a little fear in his heart.
However, the Qingluan Guard internally punished those who were timid in battle very severely, forcing him to suppress his fear and shout loudly: "Crossbow!"
The most common weapon used by the imperial court to suppress Jianghu warriors was crossbows, especially the crossbows of the established system. It was difficult for ordinary warriors to gain favor.
Among the many crossbows, the one most commonly used by Qingluan Guard is the "Jackdaw Crossbow", which is named after its shape resembling a flapping black jackdaw. The Qingluan Guard Xiaoqi who died in Yizhuang used the "Jackdaw Crossbow"
crossbow".
Following the command from the Qingluan Guard Commander, a total of twenty crossbows were raised and aimed at Qi Xuansu.
The next moment, there was only a "buzzing" sound, which was particularly harsh amidst the noisy rain.
Although there was only one sound, more than twenty crossbow arrows were fired at Qi Xuansu.
Almost at the same time, Qi Xuansu waved his large, soaked cloak and swept all the crossbow arrows aimed at him to the ground, without any of them slipping through the net.
Qingluan Wei Commander's pupils shrank suddenly, staring at this unknown young man.
He turned out to be a real master.
It's not that they can't kill a master with their lives. The key is that they don't have so many manpower now. It's undoubtedly a fool's dream to want to besiege a master to death with only twenty ordinary Qingluan Guardsmen.
Thinking of this, he subconsciously looked back at the county government office behind him.
In the pouring rain, the dark door of the county government office was tightly closed, making it look particularly quiet.
In this official government office, there are two other masters of the Hundred Household Examination. They are the masters of the Qingluan Guard.
Sometimes, only a master can deal with a master.
…
The rain continued to fall on the ground, not only turning the street outside into a small river, but even the courtyard of the county government office quickly became filled with water.
However, the courtyard was unexpectedly quiet at this time. Apart from the noisy rain, because there were several banana plants planted in the courtyard, the only sound was the sound of the rain hitting the banana plants.
Zhou Feilong stood in front of the court, looking at the banana leaves in the rain and said with emotion: "The rain hitting the banana leaves brings sadness, and infatuation flows into the water. The guests have arrived, but it's a pity that they don't appreciate it."
The word "it's a pity" was said very hard by him, and the word "appreciate" became very light, which suddenly added a lot of chilling meaning.
Li Sanxin still stayed in the room, picked up the tureen again, and sipped tea.
In the courtyard, dozens of Qingluan guardsmen wearing ponchos were standing silently. Under the ponchos were "Flying Squirrel Armors", "Chang Sheep Swords" on their waists, and in their hands were "Jackdaw Crossbows" with crossbows already strung.
.
What happened outside the county government office seemed to have nothing to do with them. These Qingluan Guards were motionless and silent, like stone sculptures. No matter the violent wind, rain, or the coming fight, they could not change the expressions on their faces at all.
. Li Sanxin stood up from the chair with a bowl in one hand, walked to the rain eaves in front of the hall, listened to the increasingly quieter sounds of fighting outside the county government office, looked at the vast rain curtain in front of him, and said softly: "He is actually a master.
, at least it is the pill-holding stage, which is a bit unexpected. But then again, this also shows that our Lord Li is indeed not simple."
Zhou Feilong said with a smile: "The biggest fear when crossing a river is not knowing the depth. Once you know the depth, you have an idea. When I didn't know the reality just now, my heart was always hanging, but now I can get it down to the real thing."
Li Sanxin said with a smile: "Since Brother Zhou said this, I'll help Brother Zhou take down this person. I'll go see the iron-clad Master Li and see what else he has to say."
, can you still say that you have no friends or partisans?"
Li Sanxin's voice was not loud, but there was not much room for discussion.
After all, he is different from Zhou Feilong. He is Lord Qianhu's confidant and has a bright future. Although they are still equal colleagues today, they might one day become subordinates.
Zhou Feilong hesitated for a moment, then responded with a smile: "Okay."
Li Sanxin raised his hand, and immediately two Qingluan guards standing under the corridor came over to lead the way.
Immediately afterwards, two more Qingluan Guards Lieutenants followed. Li Sanxin, surrounded by four Qingluan Guards Lieutenants, walked slowly to the back house with a bowl in hand.
Zhou Feilong looked at Li Sanxin's leaving figure. Although he was quite angry in his heart, but having been in this position as an official and practicing in Gongmen for many years, "controlling anger and calming down" has long been a necessary skill, so the expression on his face was not the same at all.
Xian, after retracting his gaze, looked at the Qingluan Guards in front of him and waved his hand.
All the Qingluan guards turned around at the same time and walked towards the Yamen gate.
The large flat outside the county government is half an acre in size according to regulations. There is nothing else except two huge stone lions, which shows its majesty due to its spaciousness.
However, the large flat is now covered with corpses lying in various directions, soaked by the rain, and the blood is mixed with the rain and flowing into the ditches and culverts.
Qi Xuansu was the only person standing in the middle of the flat. He looked at the dark gate of the county government and remained silent.
The next moment, the gate of the county government opened with a bang, and many Qingluan guards poured out of the gate and lined up along the two splayed walls on both sides of the gate, with an astonishing momentum.
Then Zhou Feilong, who was wearing the official uniform of a hundred households, crossed the high threshold and came to the stone steps in front of the gate.
Zhou Feilong glanced at the scattered corpses, his face suddenly darkened, and his eyes looking at Qi Xuansu were full of gloom.
Qi Xuansu stood there without any fear.
Zhou Feilong had no choice but to speak, his voice low and majestic: "Killing our Qingluan Guard soldiers in the street with the intention of rescuing imperial prisoners is a serious crime of beheading."
Qi Xuansu did not speak, but shook his cloak, revealing the "thin tiger knife" hanging on the right side.
After Zhou Feilong saw the knife, he immediately understood that the confidant who was sent to the "Inn" to close the net was probably in danger. Although this confidant was just a small flag, his skills were quite impressive.
, even many general banners cannot compare with him.
However, he still asked: "Did you kill the people guarding the 'inn'?"
Qi Xuansu leaned forward slightly, indicating that this was the case.
Zhou Feilong looked at him and said solemnly: "You really deserve to die."
