Liu Yuanhu was sitting on a chair, playing with a tea cup in his hand, with an indifferent expression, not looking at Zhang Guangqun, just staring at the cup in his hand.
An aura of calmness and self-power escaped from him, and the atmosphere gradually became anxious.
Zhang Guangqun His mind was spinning rapidly, and a trace of cold sweat broke out on his temples.
He hurriedly bowed and cupped his hands and said, "Return to your lord, I have been by your side since I was eighteen years old, and it has been twenty-two years now."
Liu Yuanhu continued to ask, "Then how do I treat you on weekdays?"
Zhang Guangqun His palms were sweating, and his heart became more and more panicked. His face trembled and he suppressed the panic in his heart and said.
"Your Excellency, you treat me like a brother and a brother. You have supported me many times over the years. Your kindness is no less than that of a reborn parent. Your Excellency, you will remember my good and humble position in your heart and dare not forget it!"
"Hmph!"
"Crack!"
Liu Yuanhu snorted coldly, suddenly smashed the teacup into pieces and scolded him while staring at Zhang Guangqun with ferocious eyes.
"Since I treat you well, why do you want to harm me? I haven't discovered that you are an immature wolf cub in all these years!"
Liu Yuanhu's voice was cold and stern, and a terrifying power emanated from him.
Zhang Guangqun was shocked and fell to his knees.
"Your Majesty, I have learned from you! I am loyal to you, and I have never had my second heart!"
Zhang Guangqun has followed him for so many years, and Liu Yuanhu thinks highly of him. Seeing that he is still stubborn, I can't help but feel a little heartbroken.
"Then how do you explain the blood-locking powder in this drink?"
Zhang Guangqun's only son is in the hands of Zhao Honglie, and he has to obey Zhao Honglie's orders.
The task Zhao Honglie gave him was to mix blood-locking powder into the wine at today's banquet, and then open the city gate to let Black Sand Gang's people into the city.
The people who came to the banquet today were all the top fighters in Cangyun County.
If they lose their fighting power, the defense of Cangyun County will be ineffective and the city will be easily accessible!
At this time, Liu Yuanhu's blood energy was strong and his breath was majestic, but there were no signs of poisoning.
Since he took the initiative to ask, it was obvious that the matter had been exposed and the poisoned wine had been replaced.
Zhang Guangqun has followed Liu Yuanhu for many years. If his only son had not been arrested, he would never have done such a thing.
Now that the matter was revealed, he was honest. He kowtowed three times to Liu Yuanhu, and then told the whole story.
After finishing the narration, Zhang Guangqun took out the sword from his waist and put it on his neck.
"Sir, I am ashamed of you, and now I have no choice but to die to apologize! Please take care of yourself!"
Zhang Guangqun waved the long sword in his hand to commit suicide.
Liu Yuanhu shouted angrily, "You bastard!"
Then he kicked the sword hilt with great speed and precision.
Although the sword blade scratched a little skin, fortunately Zhang Guangqun was not in danger of his life.
Zhang Guangqun looked at Liu Yuanhu with a puzzled look, "Sir..."
Liu Yuanhu snorted angrily, "Humph, look at how useless you are! Don't you want to save your son?"
The two have been together for so many years, and it would be false to say that they have no emotions at all.
Otherwise, Liu Yuanhu would have killed Zhang Guangqun with a knife. Liu Yuanhu is not a good man.
Zhang Guangqun was silent after hearing this.
Zhao Honglie Zhang Guangqun knows who he is as the leader of the Black Sand Gang.
This time he did not do his job well, and there was absolutely no chance of his little son surviving.
Zhang Guangqun smiled bitterly and said, "Now that the incident has happened, my son has no way to survive. I have let down your kindness with my humble position. I will not be able to face you again in the future. I hope you will grant me death!"
Zhang Guangqun grabbed the ground with his head and fell to the ground.
Liu Yuanhu kicked him down and cursed in anger.
"You bastard! Look how much of a man you are? You look like a bitch!"
"Who told you that the matter has been exposed? Don't worry, I have told you that they will be dormant at this time, and the city wall guards are also the death row prisoners I transferred from the prison. Just act according to the plan, and we will give him a good show of inviting you to enter the urn and catching the turtle in the urn!"
"At that time, when I take down that bastard Zhao Honglie, I will keep your son safe!"
Liu Yuanhu sat back on the chair and said calmly, "Go ahead! I miss you this time for a reason. If this thing is done well, then forget about it. If..."
Liu Yuanhu sneered twice, "Hmph, you know my methods!"
Zhang Guangqun thought for a while, and looked overjoyed when he found out that his son still had a glimmer of life.
"In this humble position, I will do my best to live up to your high expectations!"
After Zhang Guangqun left, Liu Yuanhu came to the backyard.
There was a tall man sitting in the backyard pavilion.
The man was tall and thick, with strong muscles like a humanoid beast, and his shiny bald head gave him a murderous aura.
He is none other than the famous Copper Head Iron Bone Mo Chen among Chiyun Prefecture.
Mo Chen saw Liu Yuanhu, picked up a glass of wine and drank it all with a smile.
"I feel bad."
Liu Yuanhu picked up the wine bottle, filled himself a glass and drank it in one gulp, looking deeply into the night sky.
At this time, the starry sky was quiet, dotted with stars, and the bright moon was shining high, making the scenery very pleasant.
"He had no choice but to do it. It doesn't matter. If we can catch all the traitors like Zhao Honglie this time, then it will be considered as having made up for it."
Mo Chen shook his head and smiled and said, "Although I have deliberately concealed my traces when I came here this time, they are not idiots. They should also have guesses about this. With Zhao Honglie as a person, he should not be fooled so easily."
Liu Yuanhu also laughed, "Of course. The cunning rabbit still has three burrows. Zhao Honglie can stand in Cangyun County for so many years and naturally will not put its eggs in one basket."
"But this time I am using the entire Zangyun County as a bargaining chip. If he is not tempted, will the aristocratic families around him not be tempted?"
"Drink quickly! I will have to rely on you, brother, for a while."
Zhang Guangqun When he came to the city wall, he found that the city guards had been replaced again and again.
He drew the sword from his waist and climbed to the top of the city to start the massacre.
After killing all the guards disguised as death row prisoners, he took out a sounding arrow from his waist and fired it.
"Phew!"
"Bang!"
The sounding arrow exploded in the air, and the sharp sound spread far away.
Canghe County Zhao Honglie, who was ten miles away from the city and was already ready to go, laughed heartily when he heard the sound of arrows.
"Haha, Zhang Guangqun has sent a signal. At this time, Liu Yuanhu and the others have been restrained by the blood-locking powder. This is our great opportunity to take Cangyun County in one fell swoop!"
"Everyone, who among you is willing to be the vanguard of this battle?"
Zhao Honglie's journey from being a refugee to today relies on a steady hand. Although Cangyun County is now within easy reach, he still does not take it lightly.
He would not risk his life until he saw Liu Yuanhu's head with his own eyes.
He Black Sand Gang will definitely not be the pioneer.
After all, this news is just the words of the Zhao Honglie family. Zhao Qingcheng and Lu Kong are not fools. They will not be so foolish as to say that they will be the pioneer.
"Gang Leader Zhao, we should wait until the county seat to see the situation before discussing the matter of pioneering!"
Zhao Qingcheng was the first to speak.
"Okay! Let's go then!"
Zhao Honglie With a wave of his hand, the coalition forces marched towards Cangyun County in a mighty manner.
When they arrived at Cangyun County, they saw that the city gate was wide open and guards whose necks had been wiped were scattered on the wall.
Zhang Guangqun came from the city and looked at Zhao Honglie coldly and asked.
"Where is my son?"
Zhao Honglie couldn't help laughing when he saw the city gate wide open.
"Brother Zhang, don't be so anxious! You handled this matter so beautifully. How could I harm my nephew?"
"Come on, bring this person over here!"
Soon, the gang members brought a sack.
Zhang Guangqun His heart dropped as he untied the sack and looked at his son, although his face was bruised but his breathing was still stable.
"Where are Liu Yuanhu and his cronies?"
Zhao Qingcheng asked, suppressing the excitement in his eyes.
Zhang Guangqun glanced at him and said coldly.
"Of course in the county captain's house, I mixed today's wine with blood-locking powder and a large amount of sleeping powder. Not only can they not use any strength at this time, they are also as sleepy as pigs. Just hurry up and do what you want."
Zhang Guangqun hugged his son and was about to leave.
"Hey, Brother Zhang, stay here."
Liu Honglie stopped him with a smile.
Zhang Guangqun stopped and looked at Liu Honglie coldly.
"I've finished what you asked me to do, what else do you want?"
Liu Honglie smiled slightly, "This Canghe County is already in our possession, and you should be the first to contribute to this battle. Why don't you stay and advance and retreat with me, how about I guarantee that you will be promoted to a higher rank in the future?"
Zhang Guangqun has worked in the county government for many years and has outstanding work ability. He is also a perfect master of the Blood Refining Realm. If he can be recruited to join the team, his Black Sand Gang strength will be even stronger.
Zhang Guangqun snorted coldly, "Huh! We have different paths and we don't want to conspire with each other! Don't mention this matter again. From now on, you will treat me as someone else!"
Liu Honglie looked at Zhang Guangqun's leaving back with murderous intent gradually rising in his eyes, but at this time he had more important things to do and did not attack.
Liu Honglie turned to look at Zhao Qingcheng, Lu Kong and others.
"Who among you is willing to be the vanguard of this battle?"
Although they had already discussed the distribution of benefits from winning Canghe County City before, they were all in the general direction. Naturally, this first wave of people entering the city would still have the opportunity to plunder.
This is also a huge fortune!
At this time, the city gate was wide open, and all the high-end combat forces in the city had been wiped out. Even if there were some people left inside, they were only insignificant characters.
In this way, after entering the city, it will be like picking up money!
Lu Kong was the first to speak.
"I, Lu Family, would like to be the vanguard of this battle!"
How could Zhao Qingcheng let such a huge difference fall into the hands of the Lu Family, he hurriedly spoke.
"Brother Lu, you Lu Family suffered heavy casualties before. Although the city gate is wide open now, there may still be some ambush inside. It is up to us Zhao Family to be the vanguard!"
Lu Kong heard this and immediately glared at Zhao Qingcheng.
"Hmph! Hypocrisy! You don't need to worry about my Lu Family matters. I, Lu Family, will take care of this pioneer job!"
Zhao Honglie saw the dispute between the two families and hurriedly opened his mouth to smooth things over.
"Okay, okay. This huge Canghe County city belongs to us, why are we still fighting for a small profit? Since you all want to go, then just go! Leave the outside to me Black Sand Gang."
"When entering, be sure to find Liu Yuanhu and others first and stomp them with a sword to avoid future troubles. After the incident is completed, fire an arrow as a signal. If there is any accident, fire two."
Lu Kong glared at Zhao Qingcheng and snorted coldly before leading the Lu Family people into the city.
Not to be outdone, Zhao Qingcheng waved to the Zhao Family and followed closely behind.
After the Zhao and Lu families entered Canghe County City, Liu Honglie looked at the bright moon in the night sky. His right eyelid was beating wildly for no reason, and his heart seemed to be enveloped by a haze, which was very uncomfortable.
Liu Yuanhu has already made arrangements in the city.
The doors of ordinary civilians were closed, and they did not even light any lights. There was silence.
"Dad, this... it seems a bit too quiet!"
Zhao Qingcheng's youngest son, Zhao Dezhi, was a little panicked when he saw Dao Heart in the silent street. He came to Zhao Qingcheng and whispered.
Zhao Qingcheng also noticed something strange, but they had already entered the city and it was impossible to go back.
Zhao Qingcheng glared at Zhao Dezhi and said fiercely.
"I'm afraid of a bird! All the strong men in the city have been knocked out by the medicine, and they may be sleeping soundly somewhere at this moment. In front of us is the home of Chen Yuanke, one of Liu Yuanhu's confidants. Let's go and see it."
Zhao Family people rushed into a fairly good courtyard and ransacked it.
A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Family people gathered in the courtyard, with some gold and silver jewelry plundered from the courtyard piled in front of them.
"Dad, there's no one in the yard! There's no lack of property at all. I've seen it, and there's still some heat in the kitchen!"
Zhao Qingcheng Hearing this, his brows suddenly wrinkled.
It stands to reason that even if Chen Yuanke was thrown into the house of the county captain, there would still be others there.
The fact that there was still heat in the kitchen meant that there were people cooking and cooking not long ago, but now there was no one here.
Nine out of ten things are wrong!
Zhao Qingcheng is suspicious by nature. Although he covets the wealth collected in the first round of the city, he pays more attention to the vitality of his family.
"Dezhi, you take a pair of troops to capture the city, and then go to the county captain's mansion with the Lu Family people to see what's going on."
Zhao Dezhi was born to Zhao Qingcheng and a maid. Although his talent was good, his brain was not very good Spirit Light.
When Zhao Dezhi heard this, he thought it was because his father was very happy to reuse him, and even patted his chest to confirm it.
"Dad, don't worry! I will plunder hard and won't let Lu Family people take advantage!"
Zhao Qingcheng nodded and praised a few words before sending Zhao Dezhi away.
"The remaining people follow me and retreat to the city gate!"
After Zhao Dezhi left, Zhao Qingcheng immediately ordered a retreat.
Unlike Zhao Qingcheng who was cautious, Lu Kong had long been blinded by hatred. Although he noticed something strange in the city, he didn't take it to heart.
He felt that Liu Yuanhu was not bold enough to open the city gate and let them in!
The Lu and Zhao families searched all the officials' courtyards in Canghe City.
When they arrived at the county captain's house, both families had already collected a carriage full of gold and silver.
This wealth is no longer within the agreed distribution, so they are very happy.
When they arrived at the county captain's house, they found that the door was open, and there were even scattered dishes and wine on the wine table. However, it was empty and silent.
At this time, Lu Kong discovered many suspicious things along the way. When he reached the door, he became hesitant and did not dare to go in.
Zhao Dezhi couldn't help laughing when he saw the timid appearance of the Lu Family people.
"Haha, you Lu Family people are really a bunch of cowards. You've come all the way here and you still don't dare to go in?"
"Since you are afraid of being a vanguard like us, go back early and wash up and sleep!"
As he spoke, Zhao Dezhi waved his hand to the Zhao Family, "Let's go! Brothers, let's chop off the head of that old guy Liu Yuanhu!"
Seeing that Zhao Dezhi dared to point fingers at him despite his back, Lu Kong was also so angry that his face turned dull.
"Hmph! Let's go in too!"
Lu Family people then entered the county captain's mansion.
After some searching, they found that there was no one in the front hall, but the documents and ornaments were all available and not scattered at all.
At this time, people from the Lu and Zhao families suddenly heard some faint noises coming from the backyard.
"There's movement!"
"Haha, it turns out we're all hiding in the backyard! Brothers, kill me! Let these cowards Lu Family see our style!"
Zhao Dezhi chuckled and took the lead in rushing towards the backyard with the Zhao Family people.
Lu Kong's face darkened and he said angrily, "Come on! Liu Yuanhu's head must belong to our Zhao Family!"
