"It's kind of interesting!"
After hearing what Mr. Xu said, Mr. Xu laughed like an old fox.
Boss Xu glanced at his father's smile and couldn't help but shocked. Since he
is sensible, whenever his father laughs like this, some people will always be
unlucky.
So, who will be unlucky this time?
"Father, how do you deal with the people outside?"
Due to Xu's fierce name, there are actually a lot of thieves kneeling outside
and begging for mercy. In order to convince Xu Lao'er that they really
surrendered, these people even took off cleanly.
Perhaps these people are indeed damned, but neither of their brothers is an
executioner, and it is impossible to draw the sword against those who kneel
and beg for mercy.
"It's all tied up, tomorrow, let's take it on the road and send it to the
county government!"
"okay!"
After being instructed by Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu quickly walked out of the door of the
inn to look for Mr. Xu.
Then, dozens of vicious thieves quickly bound themselves. During the whole
process, everyone was well-behaved, and no one thought of sneaking away or
doing something.
...
The rest of the night was calm.
Of course this calm is only relative.
Luofeng Town suffered this unwarranted disaster, and the people in the town
whose homes were burnt down were weeping in the streets. The man was rescued,
but no possessions.
When it was light, the fire that had been lost for most of the night was
finally slowly extinguished.
Many people entered the ruins of their homes, found the hidden gold and
silver, and began to think of ways to rebuild their homes.
Rebuilding a home requires not only materials, but also labor.
The old man Xu who came out of the inn saw this scene? With a flash of light
in his mind, he let Xu Lao Er stay in Luofeng Town? Staring at the people who
surrendered last night, these people will help the people whose houses in
Luofeng Town were burnt down for free Rebuild the house.
Except for the most common meals, three meals a day, nothing else.
But even so, these people are grateful.
"Father, I? Don't you go home with you?"
Hearing his father's instructions? Xu Lao Er was dumbfounded for an instant.
This look has reached the door of the house, but he can't go home immediately?
Is this a matter of that door?
"You stay and watch these people carefully!"
Elder Xu whispered a few words in Xu Lao Er's ear? "Understand?"
"understood!"
"Father, take a good look!"
Xu Lao Er was still depressed just now, but now? He is full of excitement.
The way Mr. Xu looked at Mr. Xu? He shook his head speechlessly. Although he
doesn't know what his father said? But he thinks? Dad must be fooling his
second child again.
However, it seems that only the second child can do this.
The thieves of these heads? There are more than forty. Except for Xu Lao Er?
Other people really can't stand so many people. Of course? Their father must
be able to watch? But the problem is? Their father is impossible to stay here.
Therefore, I can only let the second child stay.
Waiting until the old man Xu and his party left? Old second Xu looked at the
thieves who were left in the town with a cold face.
"Don't say Lao Tzu didn't give you a chance to reform!"
"The houses in this town were all set on fire by you. Now I will give you a
chance to compensate, and all help build houses."
"Done? Your sin will be a bit lighter."
"If anyone wants to escape, he has to see if he runs faster? Or the arrow shot
by the bow in my hand is faster!"
As he spoke, Xu Lao Er raised his hand with an arrow.
Arrows fly into the sky!
After waiting a moment, the arrow fell from the sky and fell to the ground
with a house sparrow.
This arrow, Xu Lao Er didn't even aim at it specially, it was completely free.
But just because of this, it seemed that his arrow technique was terrifying.
Seeing Xu Lao Er's arrow, the forty-odd person, there is no more thought to
escape. They are not fools, how can they not understand that escape is a dead
word.
...
On the official road far away from Luofeng Town, Mr. Xu and Mr. Xu rode on
horseback.
"Father, what did you tell your second child?"
Boss Xu still couldn't help being curious.
"I didn't say anything, I just told him to tighten first and then loosen, to
create a chance for those people to escape."
"Are you going to put a long line to catch a big fish?"
Boss Xu understood his father's thoughts in an instant, but soon frowned
again, "But these people are all small people, and the only insiders have been
silenced."
"Even if one of them escapes, is there any use?"
"It's so useful!"
Old man Xu chuckled, "These people, externally speaking, are all bandits. But,
do we have so many bandits in Xiangyi Mansion?"
"Or, do we have bandits in Xiangyi Mansion?"
When Mr. Xu asked, Mr. Xu was silent.
There are no bandits in Xiangyi Mansion.
Bandits and horse bandits, there is still a bit of living soil in Longxi
Mansion, because they are close to the North Barbarian, they can attack and
retreat and defend.
Since there are no bandits in Xiangyi Mansion, where did these people come
from?
Boss Xu couldn't think of an answer.
"Father, you want to follow the vine!"
"This is nothing but a wasteful use."
Elder Xu sighed, "This person hides too deep, much harder than the princess
and the old lady in Xu Mansion!"
"It's not easy to deal with!"
The princess is cruel enough, but every time she makes a shot, it is more or
less on the bright side, and the people who shot this time, from start to
finish, only used a group of cannon fodder, a group of them.
These people may be just some rogues on weekdays. They may know that they are
backed by a certain power, but what power they are backed by, I am afraid that
their leader is not very clear.
But even so, their leader still can't escape being wiped out.
Is such a meticulous arrangement and such a fierce decision an ordinary
person?
Mr. Xu didn't say much.
He asked Xu Lao Er to look at those little ones, but he was actually betting
on uncertainty.
According to Mr. Xu, the leaders of these people were killed as soon as they
stood up. However, neither Boss Xu nor Boss Xu could find the person who made
the shot.
Mr. Xu had a guess in his heart that the person who made the shot was among
the forty-odd people. It may not even be one person, but several people.
In this way, it can also explain why their leader is so easy to be killed, but
no one has discovered where the shooter is hiding.
If his guess is true, then sooner or later this batch of wolves mixed in the
flock will show their feet.
Of course, there is another possibility that these people will find
opportunities to slip away, or find opportunities to assassinate Xu Lao Er.
Unless Mr. Xu is wrong, as long as these people make a move, then what is
waiting for them is the net of heaven and earth that Mr. Xu is about to set.
