Hou Men Splendid

Chapter 118
It was too late and then it was too late, and the two robbers were about to come down with their knives in hand. A dozen monks ran quickly behind Lin Qingran and the others, holding sticks in their hands, and guarding the pilgrims who were present.

The robber just walked to the middle of the stairs. Seeing the situation, he immediately went up, holding a knife and standing in front of the robber boss. The robber holding Xu Qinlei tightened his knife and looked at the monk who was protecting everyone, loudly He scolded, "If you come here, I will kill them."

These deacon monks first protected the people under the stairs so that no one else would suffer. One of the monks bowed to the robbers, "Alms, put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately. You have made a big mistake, so why?" Make mistakes on top of mistakes."

"Who is the stinky monk talking about? Get out of the way for me." The robber's face was full of hostility, and he was obviously impatient. He grabbed Xu Qinlei and another woman and walked towards the stairs. Going down, they took a step, the monks at the bottom took a step back, and everyone stepped back. There were still many people standing behind Lin Qingran, who couldn't get out, so they followed the crowd back.

Xu Qinlei was actually on the verge of fainting from fright, but she couldn't faint. The knife was placed on her neck shiningly, and it had already cut her neck. If she went deeper, her blood would splatter on the spot. The maid was killed just now. She saw that scene in her eyes, they killed people without blinking an eye.

"Boss, what should I do?" They couldn't catch another person as a hostage, and even attracted the deacon monk in the temple. Even if they left, it would take a long time. When the officers and soldiers who were chasing arrived, they really had no way out. .

"Leave here first, there are plenty of carriages outside." Staring at the monks, "These monks are abstaining from killing, you see, they are not even allowed to touch the female relatives." With these two hostages, enough.

Hearing that these robbers were going to kidnap her to leave here, Xu Qinlei panicked even more, and she winked at the monks for help, but the monks were holding sticks, and the people behind her were holding knives. For the comfort of her life, they couldn't act rashly.

The crowd retreated slowly, and several robbers surrounded the two kidnappers in the middle, guarded all around, and looked at everyone fiercely with their knives raised.

Many female relatives were scared away, so Lin Qingran had some free time, and hurriedly carried the child to the room where the mother and eldest sister were. Brother Han was a little scared, and walked into the room without saying a word in Lin Qingyue's arms. She, Lu, who was talking to the old master in the temple, saw that they all looked shocked, and asked with concern, "What's going on."

The people here still don't know what happened in the place where the flowers are admired in the back temple. Lin Qingran said briefly, and sat on the stool, her heart was really at ease.

The master at the side listened very calmly, and just said to Lu and Lin Qingyi, "The almsgiver must have a lot of ups and downs in his heart now, and it is not the right time to lecture. There are monks who are deacons, and the abbot should have known it. All benefactors Rest here, and the poor monk will leave first." The master who taught the scriptures left, and Mrs. Lu took Brother Han from Lin Qingyue's arms and hugged her in his arms to comfort her. Now she is safe. Lin Qingyue is really angry, " Then how could Mrs. Mu be like this, she even asked the robbers to take Fifth Sister as a hostage? Brother's back, "This child is frightened, let the master bring back his soul later."

Lin Qingyi asked about the general situation, and Lin Qingran shook her head. To be honest, she couldn't feel any sympathy at the moment, "According to what they said, they should have been hunted down by the government and came here with nowhere to go. Mrs. Mu and the others must have bumped into the right And was taken hostage."

"How could you come to the temple?" Lin Qingyi held her hand, feeling a little scared, "It's as long as you are fine."

"There are so many people in the temple that it is easy to take hostages, and the hills here are easy to hide, so naturally they would run here." If Lin Qingran and the others were in the forest at that time, they might have been arrested.

"Fifth sister, why don't we go out and have a look." Lin Qingyue wanted to know what it was like outside, Lin Qingran reached out and tapped her forehead, "You are really afraid that the world will not be chaotic, why go out and see, in case the robbers are in a hurry Kill people, let's see how you hide!"

Lin Qingyue stuck out her tongue resentfully, "Then Mrs. Mu is about to be taken away."

"Since it's a hunt, the people from the government should be back soon." Where did Lin Qingran come from with such sympathy to worry about Xu Qinlei's safety? That guy just wanted to pull her out as a hostage

The people from the government here did arrive soon, and the robbers also took them to the gate of the temple. The two sides confronted each other. Shao Ziyu led people to block the exit, followed by monks who surrounded him. It can be said that there was no way out.

The robbers took the two hostages and walked towards the officers and soldiers, "I will die, and these two women will be buried with me when I die. Let's see if your arrows are faster or my sword is faster."

Four people surrounded the two hostages. It was difficult for the archers to hurt them.

The two sides were at a stalemate, the robbers asked to prepare a carriage, otherwise the hostages would be killed, Shao Ziyu knew that they would not do it, but he had to follow the robbers' wishes.

Not to mention that Xu Qinlei is in the hands of the robbers today, her status is not low, if she is an ordinary woman, the government will not disregard human life In order to catch them and let the two hostages be killed, the officers and soldiers stepped back, and there were many parked on both sides of the road Carriage, the robbers quickly found a carriage, the leader of the robbers led Xu Qinlei up, and in the middle gap, a few flying arrows struck and hit the other two robbers, looking at the situation No, the two who hadn't gotten into the carriage immediately left the two injured ones, jumped into the carriage, shook the reins fiercely, and rushed down the mountain.

The officers and soldiers swarmed up and grabbed the two injured ones. One of the hostages, the woman, had already passed out. Shao Ziyu led his men to chase down. It's gone.

Shao Ziyu got on his horse and chased after him, but officers and soldiers surrounded him at the foot of the mountain, they couldn't run far at all, even Mrs. Mu was still in the carriage, which seemed tricky.

All the way down, I encountered a carriage going up the mountain halfway, hiding under my right arm, the carriage was swaying very much, Xu Qinlei leaned there with a pale face, only to hear the robber driving outside opened the curtain to look in and said anxiously , "It's not good, brother, there are officers and soldiers blocking the foot of the mountain, so I can't get through."

The same trick was used twice and it didn't work. When I got into the carriage just now, I broke two brothers. The leader of the robbers opened the curtain inside the car and saw that there was a forest next to the hillside, and it was not far from the foot of the mountain. Going down, you can bypass the officers and soldiers directly to the official road.

"Boss!" The robbers outside shouted again, and the leader yelled, "Fight it, go down from the side, try to avoid the big trees, let's rush down, rush to the official road, and we won't be caught in the small road for a while." turn up."

They were all desperadoes, risking serious injuries and being arrested by the government and beheaded directly. Of course, they had to fight. Running down the steep slope of the mountain road, the inside of the car vibrated wildly. Xu Qinlei grabbed the door panel of the car in fear. Looking at these robbers, suddenly there was a huge impact on the car, the leader of the robbers cursed secretly and lifted the curtain, and the carriage hit a tree.

The horse in front was too difficult to run on the steep road. The horse was not stable when it hit the horse. When it slipped, it slipped and rolled down. The car body was connected to the horse. The robbers who were driving were all thrown out.

There were two big trees in between, and there was only a bang. The leader of the robbers failed to hold the carriage firmly, and he flew out under the impact, and the already dilapidated carriage was directly caught in the Between two trees, crumbling.

The interior of the car was damaged, Xu Qinlei fainted
When Xu Qinlei woke up, she was already in the Mu Mansion. When she opened her eyes, she saw her own bed. Xu Qinlei hadn't recovered from the danger of being kidnapped.

Just as I was about to open my mouth, I suddenly found that my mouth couldn't be opened, and my mouth was dry. Just moving my mouth moved the muscles on my face, leaving in pain, and my head was also tight.

Reaching out and touching her, her face and head were bandaged with gauze.

An exclamation sounded.

The servant girl hurried over, Xu Qinlei ignored her foot injury, and was in a hurry to ask for a mirror. Throwing it to the ground, he shouted hysterically, "My face, my face!"

The more she yelled, the more her face hurt, but the more she hurt, the more frightened she became, what happened to her face, how could she be hurt so badly.

Mrs. Mu and Mu Jinhe walked in soon outside the house. Seeing Mu Jinhe, Xu Qinlei burst into tears, "Sir, what's wrong with me, take these away, I don't want to pester them, my What happened to your face?"

Mu Jinhe stepped forward and hugged her, Mrs. Mu looked at the mirror that fell on the ground, asked the maid to clean it up, let the couple talk, and walked out first.

"When I found you, you had passed out. The carriage was in the middle of the books, the inside of the carriage was squeezed, your left leg was broken, and your face was scratched by the wood chips. The wood chips have been removed, and you are fine. It'll be fine soon, it's okay." Mu Jinhe's consolation had no effect at all, when Xu Qinlei heard that her face was scratched by broken wood, her whole expression collapsed.

"I'm ashamed to see people." Xu Qinlei covered her face and cried, and immediately pushed Mu Jinhe out again, "You go, it's all your fault, it's all your fault, even if you catch a few robbers, you won't be able to catch them , and let them escape to the temple, if it weren't for your uselessness, how could I be threatened by them, you go!"

The more Xu Qinlei cried, the more it hurt her face, and the salty tears seeping into the wound was even more unbearable. She grabbed the pillow beside her and threw it on the ground.

Mu Jinhe could only hug her tightly, telling her not to move, so as not to hurt her foot, the room was full of Xu Qinlei's sad cries

The criminal department was interrogating the prisoners here. When Shao Ziyu arrived there, the three robbers actually passed out, and the ones who didn't fainted were also crushed in the carriage with their legs disabled.

In the robbery that occurred in the outskirts of Luodu City in mid-March, a total of nine robbers have been arrested and brought to justice.

This group of people came from other places. To be precise, they have been following Wen Tianyou's family since they left Victoria. Because the carriage was on its way, he fell ill.

The child was crying violently, the fever persisted, and there was no doctor at the post station. After the couple discussed it, it was only half a day's journey away from Luodu City. If they drove all night, they would definitely be able to enter the city in the middle of the night.

Who would have thought that such a group of robbers would follow them all the way, that is, the carriage was robbed late at night on the official road on the outskirts of Luodu City.

They searched all the belongings in the carriage, and they would not have harmed their lives. Some of the robbers coveted the young beauty of Mrs. Wen and the two servant girls, and they had evil thoughts, and wanted to drag them into the grass near the carriage to defile them. Wen Tianyou and the coachman rebelled angrily, and then started fighting.

The robbers struck ruthlessly, seven lives in the two vehicles, plus the stolen doctor and the innocent life killed in the temple, nine lives were buried in their hands.

They were caught in the afternoon, and the trial of the case was rushed in the evening. The nine robbers will be beheaded at the end of the West Street Market tomorrow morning.

Shao Ziyu handed over the rest to others, and took Ah Jiu back to the temple to bring Lin Qingran and the others back home. It was already dark in the city, and Brother Han, who brought the master back to his soul, still looked sleepy. In Lin Qingran's arms, he didn't say a word, even if Brother Bo came to hold his hand, he would just symbolically respond to his younger brother, and he couldn't get excited at all.

Lu said that he would ask the godmother to come over another day and call for the soul again. The couple didn't believe it, but seeing their son's heart ached so much, they agreed, and if he didn't feel better tomorrow, they would invite the godmother to come to the house to have a look.

Send mother and eldest sister back to Lin's house first, An's carriage is waiting to pick up Xiao Liu at Lin's house, and when they return to Shao's mansion, Brother Bo has already fallen asleep.

Brother Han was also sleepy in Lin Qingran's arms, he grabbed her clothes and refused to let go, Shao Ziyu coaxed him into his arms, Brother Han put his arms around his neck, silent.

After returning home and settling down the two children, Lin Qingran was also very tired at the moment. After a long time of adventure, even though she knew that the person had been caught, she still had a slight look at the person who rolled down the stairs. Terrible panic.

After taking a bath and lying down, Lin Qingran had time to ask, "It's not that the carriage went down the steep slope and overturned. How is Mrs. Mu?"

"I got a little injury, so it shouldn't be a serious problem." Shao Ziyu was afraid of scaring her. When they found Xu Qinlei, her face was covered in blood due to the splintered wood, and she was unconscious. They almost thought she was dead.

"According to the rules of etiquette, I still need to prepare some things and send them to the Mu family." Lin Qingran sighed, Commander Mu and her husband have a good relationship, no matter how much she has grudges against Xu Qinlei, she still has to do her best to the Mu family After all, it was Mrs. Mu who was injured.

"If you don't want to, then don't give it away. Brother Mu and I will just say hello." Shao Ziyu went to the temple to pick them up. Along the way, he had heard Xiaoliu fight for his wife. If Shao Ziyu himself didn't want to give it away, Lin Qing Ran glared at him, "One thing is another thing. I don't have the time to argue with her. She said that in public, but I was the only one who heard it."

Shao Ziyu smiled, "Yes, lady, you declare righteousness."
