Chapter 313: Danger abounds, success is accomplished(1/2)

After he finished speaking, he split the wine glass in half.

The unfinished wine in the glass flowed out like blood on the table, making people's scalp numb just by looking at it.

The team leaders were shocked at first. They didn't expect Xu Yuanzhi to be so skilled in martial arts, but they were even more angry.

They have captured the young men and assigned them the work, and now if they put them back, wouldn't they be giving away the meat that reaches their mouths to others?

What fool would do such a thing? So what if Xu Yuanzhi threatens him? As long as there is something profitable, there will be people willing to do it even if it means taking risks.

Besides, they still need to discuss with the untouchables to catch young men. If this is the case, how can they make money?

The wealthy families in Jiangxia live by exploiting this group of cheap labor. These strong men have no means of production, so they are bound to become their slaves.

After discussing with this group of untouchables, we still have to put them back. Some people can't bear it as soon as these two points are raised. As long as they think about it for a moment, they will know that they are at a disadvantage.

This will cut off their retreat and cost them their lives.

If you dare to let them release their young men today, you will dare to destroy their families tomorrow.

They absolutely cannot retreat.

Huang Long drew his sword first. He was not afraid of Xu Shu at first, but when he saw Xu Shu draw his sword, he felt a little itchy.

"I think Liu Qi was harmed by your master. It's you who are unkind and unjust. Don't blame us. Talking about benevolence, justice and morality to us is just a cover. Besides, why should we talk about benevolence and justice with those untouchables?"

He roared and drew his sword.

"Xu Yuanzhi, you are 50-50 with our store. Now you want us to put the strong men back and let you take them back and confiscate them? If you do this, won't you cut off all our roads? Suck our blood for you, right?

?”

Some people also responded angrily to Huang Long's call.

Although Jiangxia's wealthy clan fights fiercely behind the scenes, if there is an external enemy, they will all stand on the same front and share the same hatred.

As long as there is benefit, no one will not do it.

"Okay, okay, Liu Xuande, a fake big-eared thief, I think you and him are the same, both have the same virtue!"

Someone shouted loudly.

It's better not to roar, this roar revealed what everyone was thinking.

"How dare you country folk insult my lord? I think you are tired of living!"

Xu Shu was a straightforward person and could not hide anything. When this happened, he didn't even know how to defend himself and went up to the scene with his sword.

Guo Jia and Huang Xu stood aside, watching the excitement, and a hint of joy appeared on Huang Xu's face.

No matter who loses or wins, their goal has been achieved anyway. No matter what the final result is, they will not lose money on this trip.

"Liu Bei, a big-eared thief, dares to ask us Jiangxia wealthy people to work for him and suck our blood dry. Why can't we take his life?!"

Someone drew his sword and rushed towards Xu Shu.

The situation was completely out of control. The people brought by the major families were not vegetarians. They immediately drew their swords. The leaders of each family also drew their swords at the same time, preparing to kill Xu Shu first and then discuss it.

Xu Shu roared loudly.

"Where are the soldiers!"

The soldiers went out after cutting the pork. Now when they heard Xu Shu's order, they immediately filed in, all fully armed.

Seeing that these soldiers were fully armed, they knew in their hearts that this was indeed a Hongmen Banquet, and the real purpose was to kill these wealthy patriarchs with swords.

"Now either you die or I live. Since Liu Bei wants our lives, we will never let this big-eared thief live easily!"

The camp was already crowded, and at first glance, they were all full of people. For a while, the leaders of the major families and the soldiers were inseparable.

Xu Shu had already planned it, but he didn't expect that the group leaders would be so unwilling to let go and pounced on several of them.

He first fought with Huang Long, who had some martial arts skills. After all, in these troubled times, even wealthy families had to have some skills.

The more passionate their fight became, the more Guo Jia and Huang Xu enjoyed it.

Now that the situation is over, I don’t know how much things can be saved for my lord.

They just need to watch. As long as these people don't do anything to them, nothing will happen to them. This is just a conflict between Liu Bei and the Jiangxia wealthy family.

But if they take action, it will become a conflict between Xi Yu and Jiang Xia.

Huang Xu didn't hear the discussion between Guo Jia and Xu Shu that day, but after watching the scene, he understood in his heart that he was not stupid, but he just didn't bother to engage in such conspiracies.

"I didn't expect Uncle Fengxiao to be so vicious..."

He muttered something quietly and looked at Guo Jia silently.

However, Guo Jia looked calm and looked at everything in front of him calmly, as if he was not involved.

But when he saw Xu Shu wielding his sword and fighting Huang Long, he couldn't help but feel guilty.

If he and Xu Shu were not in opposing camps, maybe they would become true friends.

People like Xu Shu attach great importance to loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, but it is a pity that the person he loyal to is not a wise master.

Although he felt regretful, the deal was done. Now he had no chance to apologize and explain to Xu Shu. He only looked forward to having the opportunity to repay in the future.

"Brother Yuanzhi, although I lied to you this time, we are each our own masters. For the sake of the master, don't blame me. If you have the opportunity to be loyal to the same master..."

His words stopped abruptly.

Xu Shu knew that he had been deceived by Guo Jia, but now he couldn't spare the time to think about these things. He just kept waving his sword. He didn't know how many people rushed up and was killed by him, and he didn't know how much blood flowed on his body.

The blood just kept continuing this action, again and again.

"Killing them will reward you heavily, fifty gold for each head!"

He finally stabbed Huang Long with his sword, but the situation in the field was obviously not good, so he immediately yelled.

Someone saw Huang Long being killed, and the enthusiasm he had just felt suddenly disappeared.

Even if you want money, you have to live to enjoy it. As the saying goes, there must be a brave man under a lot of money. These soldiers have become red-blooded, and they are no longer human beings, but commodities that can be exchanged for money.

Xu Shu actually killed the brothers of the head of the Huang family, so he didn't even care about their lives.

Driven by a strong desire to survive, everyone rushed to the exit. However, when the soldiers heard this order, their eyes shone. As long as they had money, some would take risks.

Everyone ran out of the camp like crazy, but few people could really escape.

A guard outside the camp asked.

"Why is there so much movement inside? Why don't you go in and take a look?"

If someone from the Jiangxia wealthy family were present, they would definitely recognize who this person is. He is Jiangxia, the largest wealthy family, and the leader of the Huang clan.

I didn't expect him to actually come, but he didn't dare to go alone.

What Huang Long said on the court was naturally a lie.

The Huang clan not only came, but also brought a team of people.

The guard just glanced at him lightly.

"There are people dancing with swords inside to add to the fun. The main attacker is not allowed to enter without an order."

As soon as he finished saying this, he saw a man rushing out, covered in blood and screaming.

But in the next second, a knife stabbed his body behind him.

"Help, it's a murder!"

Huang Zu could tell that this was what he was shouting.

It seems that this is really a Hongmen Banquet.

He felt a thud in his heart, knowing that his prediction was good.

The serious faces and elite equipment of the defenders further verified his prediction.

He only stayed for a moment, then ran away, leading a group of servants to his own territory.

If he didn't run now, who would wait until later, the group of people inside were already going crazy. He could faintly hear some people screaming, some laughing wildly, some shouting, and some roaring.

He took the lead and ran the fastest.

The defenders did not receive orders to pursue the men.

Just this second of hesitation allowed the Huang clan to escape far away.

Xu Shu finally killed these wealthy leaders and was carrying their heads to recruit troops from major families.

But as soon as he walked out of the camp, he saw a group of people running wildly. At this time, he squinted his eyes, calculated the distance, and felt bad.

Now even if I chase, I can't catch up.

He was riding on foot, and for this distance one must be able to ride well.

An ominous premonition suddenly surged in his heart, as if he had missed something.

"The thieves have been arrested. There are more than 5,000 people in total. A team of people escaped before the operation!"

Xu Shu thought for a moment, and then someone came to report.

"General, do we need to pursue you?"
