Chapter 67 - Mistakes

"Oh!" Jin Renwen's keen eyes immediately found those familiar figures. They squeezed out of the venue as unnoticed as possible and soon disappeared into the crowd.

"Sanlang, can't you guess wrong once?" Jin Renwen shook his head and said to the house slave on the side: "You can take a few people to follow this old man later. Don't be too close to be discovered, and don't be too far away to lose him.

Yes, do you understand?"

"Young man understands!" the slave responded and squeezed out. Jin Renwen smiled: "Sanlang, today's trip to the West Market is not in vain!"

As dusk approached, the people beside the cockfighting ring dispersed in twos and threes. They talked enthusiastically about the wonderful game that had just ended. This was enough for them to talk about it for ten days or more, until the next more popular topic took its place.

Like most urbanites, Changan people are so vain, superficial, love to be lively, and change their minds when they see different things.

"Hurry, move everything out of the car!" the commoner man urged breathlessly.

"Aye, why are you moving here? Don't you want it anymore?"

"How much does five hundred copper coins weigh? If you don't unload the things, can the carriage still move? Hurry up, before it gets dark, move all these copper coins to the Zoroastrian Temple and store them, so that you can have peace of mind!"

"Hey!" The young man finally understood and hurriedly stepped forward to help. The two of them worked hard for a while before loading all the coins into the car, and then rode towards the Zoroastrian Temple. But just after passing through the wasteland, they walked into

A small alley was blocked by someone, it was the two evil boys who were performing a fight just now.

"You were the one who won in the cockfight just now!" The evil boy with an injured arm pulled out his sword and stabbed it into the ground: "You are old enough to die, but it's a pity that you harmed your grandson!"

"If I keep the money, can I not kill us?" the common man said with a bitter smile.

Poof!

The evil boy next to him laughed: "If I had known this, why would you come forward? I'll let you two go today. You will talk nonsense outside in the future, but Liu Langjun can't spare us! Get out of the car quickly, don't let it cost you.

Power!" After saying that, he drew his sword and stepped forward.

"What a pity, I didn't want to kill anyone today!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a soft sound. The evil boy who stepped forward covered his throat, making a loud sound in his mouth. His knees went weak and he knelt on the ground. His companions hurried forward to support him and found that his throat

It has been hit by a short arrow with green feathers and a red shaft, which is quite gorgeous.

"Wu Xiaoyi?" The evil boy's voice was full of fear: "We are Liu Weili's people. You have also served the master, why are you killing each other!"

"Who will kill each other with you!" A man jumped out from the wall of the alley. It was Wu Xiaoyi who was holding a small crossbow. He sneered: "I did do something for Liu Weili, but it was all about hoeing the strong and supporting the weak, and the way of chivalry.

There is no harm in killing the old and the weak just for money! Get lost, or I will kill you too if you don’t get lost!"

At this moment, there was a sudden rush of footsteps behind him, led by Jin Renwen's domestic slave. When he saw the corpse on the ground and the old man's carriage, his face changed greatly and he shouted: "The situation has changed, take down everyone present!"

"

"Here!" Seven or eight men responded in unison. They drew their swords and stepped forward. The light of the sword was like snow and like an iron wall. When the evil young man from the previous robbery saw this, he knew something was wrong and turned around and ran away without caring about the corpses of his companions.

But Wu Xiaoyi was unafraid. He drew his sword and shouted: "Liu Weili is so good. It takes so many people to kill an old man. But why should I, Wu Xiaoyi, be afraid? Come on!"

When Wang Wenzuo and Jin Renwen came, they only saw a massacre in the alley. Their followers were blocked by a handsome young man with a sword. They were blocked after several consecutive attacks. Behind the young man was the old man's carriage.

There was also a corpse on the ground, which was vaguely the evil boy who had just performed a sword-and-shield fight in the cockfighting ring.

"What's going on? Where is the commoner old man? Is he still safe?" Jin Ren asked.

"That's what happened when the villain arrived. One person was already dead on the ground! Please wait a moment, sir. The alley is so narrow that they can't move through it. I've allocated half of my manpower to let them go around it. I'll definitely be able to capture this little thief!

"

"The man on the ground was not killed by your people?!" Wang Wenzuo asked.

"No, the man was already dead when my people arrived!" the slave replied.

"Stop!" Wang Wenzuo shouted: "Stop fighting!"

Jin Renwen's followers all knew that Wang Wenzuo had a close relationship with his master, so they also retreated after hearing the greeting. Wu Xiaoyi was alone and did not dare to pursue him, but was cautious. Wang Wenzuo bowed his hands to him and said: "I'll wait.

Who are you who came to rescue the old man in the carriage, and why are you here?"

"I was passing by just now and saw two people blocking the carriage, intending to kill people and steal money, so I came to help!" Wu Xiaoyi said coldly: "You said you came to save the people on the carriage, but I don't believe it. You are obviously dressed like slaves of a wealthy family.

, this carriage is very dilapidated, and obviously has nothing to do with it, why are you here to save him!"

"Wait a minute!" Wang Wenzuo stretched out his hand to stop the domestic slave who was about to scold him, and said with a smile: "We will find out if we know the old man or not by asking him!" He cupped his hands towards the carriage and said loudly: "Mr. Li

, it’s okay now, I’m an old acquaintance here, please come out of the car and meet me!”

The old man was so frightened by the flash of swords and swords outside that he hid in the carriage and shivered. When he heard Wang Wenzuo's voice, he stuck his head out and recognized Jin Renwen and Wang Wenzuo. He hurriedly got out of the carriage and said with a wry smile: "Little old man, just now

Hearing the shouts of killing outside, I was frightened to death. It turned out to be two gentlemen. This little brother, the misunderstanding was all a misunderstanding. These two gentlemen met in the cockfighting ring and are not evil people."

"That's not necessarily the case!" Wu Xiaoyi still looked alert and sneered: "If we just met by chance in the cockfighting ring, why did we send the slaves to catch up? It's obviously the same as those two people, and they are also targeting you.

It comes from money.”

When the old man heard what Wu Xiaoyi said, he couldn't help but become suspicious and took two steps back. At this time, the four attendants who had detoured from the other end of the alley ran over, holding steel knives each with a fierce look, and gave Wu Xiaoyi

It adds a bit more credibility.

"Put away all the knives!" Jin Renwen shouted in a deep voice, and he bowed his hand to the old man: "A certain family is Jin Renwen, the general of the left army guard. I just saw your old man getting a reward in the cockfighting ring. I'm afraid someone wants to do it.

You made up your mind and sent your men to escort you home, but you didn’t want this little brother to get there first!”

"General of the left-leading army guard?"

The old man's first move when he woke up was to kneel down on the ground, and Wu Xiaoyi hesitated for a moment, then he bowed down. The residents of Chang'an were not ignorant country folk. According to the official system of the Tang Dynasty, those who could have the title of general were at least

A senior official of the fourth rank, even in Chang'an City, he is a well-known figure, not to mention those with the word "leader", most of them are related to the palace guards, either from the clan, or from relatives, etc.

He's an incredible person.
