Fifty-three, the dark night of fire is in danger

That night, Zhou Xuan invited Sizi, Gu Liuquan came to Donglou to play chess, and implemented his new rules of Go, abolished the seats, and posted two and a half sons first.

Zhou Xuan is like Ma Rong giving lectures, with beauties behind him, sheep Xiaopin, Nian Nujiao, and Xiaoxiang. This one holds a hand towel and the other hand the teacup. The life of the Marquis is so happy.

Zhou Xuan set up a variety of fixed changes in the corner, such as the star position, the small eye, the high eye, the three and the three. The four silly and the Gu Liuquan were dazzling. He really didn't expect that when the seat left, the changes in the corner were ten times more complicated.

Gu Liuquan sighed: "Apart from the Marquis of Zhou, who in the world knows such precise and complex changes in the corners? Even the chess fairy must be willing to give up the Marquis of Zhou."

Zhou Xuan asked: "Who is Qixian?"

Gu Liuquan said: "The Chess Immortal is Zhang Mi, the number one chess player in the 18th National Congress. After becoming famous, this person has never lost to Bai, and only lost three games by black. He has excellent chess skills. I am not able to play against him and have no qualifications. Huang Xingjian once played two games with Zhang Mi, and both were defeated in the middle and could not support the official's victory or defeat."

Zhou Xuan thought about it for a while and suddenly asked, "This Zhang is from Song Dynasty, right? Is he author of the Thirteen Chess Classics?"

Gu Liuquan nodded and said, "He is from Song Dynasty. He currently lives in Kaifeng Prefecture, Tokyo, but he has never heard of him as authoring the Thirteen Chess Sutra."

Zhou Xuan thought to himself: "It should be the Zhang Mi who wrote the Thirteen Chess Sutras. Maybe it's not the time yet, and his Chess Sutras have not been written yet." He said: "If you have the chance in the future, you will definitely visit this world's number one Chess Sutras--Hey, the fourth brother, isn't your second brother the top three Chess Sutras?"

Sichi shook his head and said, "My second brother lives in seclusion in the mountains. He has been in seclusion for ten years and has not been involved in the secular world. He has excellent chess skills, but he is not good at fame and is not among the 18th chess players."

Gu Liuquan knew that the chess power of Siqi was now comparable to that of him, so he asked: "Mr. Is your second brother's chess power stronger than you and Mr. Is it better than you and Mr. I?"

The four ignorant eyes showed respect and contempt: "My second brother is crazy about chess. How can I compare to it? In the past, my second brother played chess with me. Now my chess skills have improved a little. I guess it is still between tandem and tandem. My third brother is rarely won by my second brother."

Gu Liuquan was amazed. He knew that the chess power of Sanchi could rank about twelve and three of the 18th chess. Even Huang Xingjian, who ranked fourth, played the first chess with Sanchi, at most he would have a little advantage. He could win about six games in ten games. The second brother who was said to be Sanchi, and Sanchi was difficult to win. Then this person is fully capable of being among the top three chess players!

Zhou Xuan shook his head and said, "It is hard to imagine that a chess player who lives in seclusion in the deep mountains and forests and lacks opponents who are comparable to his strength can maintain such strong chess power. Chess power depends on grinding, and if he doesn't grind his sense of chess, he will be dull-"

Siqi frowned and said, "Master doesn't believe what I said? Don't think you are powerful. In front of my second brother, you will just let the winner first."

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "Second, why are you anxious? I believe the second child is very strong, but I don't believe that he has lived in seclusion in the mountains for ten years and has not come out. He will definitely sneak out to play chess with a master."

The four fools stopped talking.

In the first game under the new rules, Gu Liuquan and Siniang followed the first game. Four Iniangs followed the black ones. In the end, there were two more sons on the white chessboard, and two and a half sons were posted, and four Iniangs won half sons.

The Four Idiots are the first beneficiary after implementing the new rules of Go, and they are so happy that they can't stop.

In the second game, the four fools were in the white front. The four fools were young and had a better understanding of the new layout than Gu Liuquan, who was obviously better at the age of 70, took advantage of the beginning. Gu Liuquan took a steady step and gradually reversed the unfavorable situation in the middle game.

The chess was played until late at night, and after the third update, the two were still competing with the little official.

Zhou Xuan looked back and saw Nian Nujiao and Xiao Xun covered their mouths with their hands, and they were sleepy, but Yang Xiaopin was in good spirits. He knelt behind Zhou Xuan, his eyes were as clear and clear as water.

Zhou Xuan asked Nian Nujiao and Xiao Xun to go to bed first. As soon as the second girl went out, Xiao Xun suddenly screamed: "Fire! Son-in-law, it's on fire!"

The Siniang reacted very quickly. He appeared beside Xiaoqi in the blink of an eye from the chessboard. Zhou Xuan ran out and saw a fire in the west building of Meixiang Xiaoyuan. The fire spread very quickly. He heard the panic and screaming brothers of Chen Ji and Sun.

Zhou Xuan said anxiously: "Second, go and save them quickly. They live upstairs and may not be able to get down."

Sichi nodded, took out a short knife from his waist and handed it to Zhou Xuan: "Master, be careful, this is so weird!" After that, he jumped down and entered the Meilin to run towards the west building.

Zhou Xuan looked around and saw three weak women, Yang Xiaopin, Nian Nujiao, Xiaoqian, and Gu Liuquan, who had white beards and eyebrows. They were all powerless. Only Marquis Zhou had two free moves and immediately ordered them to stand still and not run in panic.

The Fenghua military residence was startled, and the government soldiers and the government soldiers began to run to put out the fire. Judge Fan shouted loudly from afar: "Marty Zhou-Marty Zhou-"

Zhou Xuanying said: "Mr. Fan, I'm fine, go quickly-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

He heard a sharp roar of roar through the air, and a three-foot-long iron-ridge arrow shot past Zhou Xuan's head one foot. Yang Xiaopin exclaimed, and his whole body suddenly hit the door frame as if he was dragged by something.

The ground floor of the west building was a sea of ​​fire. Chen Ji and the Sun brothers were trapped upstairs and could not come down. Si Ni jumped up and took them from the upstairs to the open space downstairs. Because they were concerned about Zhou Xuan'an, they rushed back quickly. They heard the sharp roar of feather arrows breaking through the air in the plum forest. The sound was unusual, and it was definitely not an ordinary bow. It should be a hard bow made of elm and hazel wood, with a range of hundreds of feet, and the speed of the arrows was also very amazing. It was usually too late to dodge when the bowstring sounded.

The four fools were shocked and soared into the sky from the plum tree forest, stepping on the treetops and flew towards the direction of the arrow shooting. If the arrow just now hit Zhou Xuan, it would definitely be unsuccessful. This kind of arrow was too powerful, so he wanted to catch the assassin who fired the hidden arrow and cut him into pieces.

The arrow was shot from outside the wall of Fenghua Military Mansion. Four cynical men stood on the wall. Outside the wall was Mochou Lake. No one was found, but the arrow was clearly shot from this direction.

The four cynical cunning shouted angrily: "Who, get out of here!"

A full moon is in the sky, Mochou Lake is silent, the lake water is rippling, reflecting the moonlight, like millions of silver snakes swimming.

The four fools had no time to search here, kicking their feet on the wall and running towards the east building. He just heard Yang Xiaofen's scream, but he didn't hear Zhou Xuan's voice. Could it be that he had already penetrated his throat with one arrow?

After the Sinibal disappeared from the wall, a wet head appeared from the lakeside, with a curly beard and lion's nose and eyes exposed fierce light. It was Li Kun's archer - Hawkeye Du Qilin.

Du Qilin climbed ashore with a five-foot long bow in his hand and shook the water in his head. He knew that the arrow just now had fallen. Although the real archer, the feathered arrow was away from the string, there was still a magical feeling attached to the arrow. The moment he hit the target, he could feel the sound of arrow clusters piercing through flesh and pricking bones, but this time he didn't feel it.

On the east building of Meixiang Xiaoyuan, Zhou Xuan saw Yang Xiaopin hitting the door frame backwards and was shocked. He thought Yang Xiaopin had been caught in an arrow. He climbed up to see her regardless of the danger. He saw that the long dark arrow passed through Yang Xiaopin's sleeves, and the huge momentum led Yang Xiaopin to fall backwards. With a "snatch" sound, he nailed it to the door frame, and it was still three inches into the wood.

Yang Xiaopin was still very calm and shook his head and said, "Young Master, I'm fine."

Zhou Xuan cut her sleeve with a short knife and saw that the arrows pressed against her forearm and wiped out a blood mark. The bright red blood flowed down her snow-white arms.

Sichi jumped up to the high building at this time. Seeing Zhou Xuan’s unwell, he felt relieved. He glanced at Yang Xiaopin’s wound and said disrespectfully: “A little scratch is nothing.”

Zhou Xuan hurriedly bandaged Yang Xiaopin, Xiao Xunxiang and Nian Nujiao went to help Gu Liuquan, and Gu Liuquan moaned, "Oh, I'm afraid my bones are broken."

Just now, Zhou Xuan pushed him too hard. Gu Liuquan supported him with his hand when he fell to the ground, and he could hear a "click" sound of his arm bone breaking.

Zhou Xuan gently patted Yang Xiaopin's pink face to express comfort, and asked her to go into the room first, turned to see Gu Liuquan, and saw that he had a fractured right arm, he apologized repeatedly.

Gu Liuquan said: "The Marquis is saving me. This arrow is so scary!"

The four fools pulled down the Oolong Iron Ridge Arrow and looked at it repeatedly, feeling still scared.

Judge Fan rushed over at this time. When he saw the hidden arrow, his face changed. He thought it was a fire, but he didn't expect that someone would harm Mr. Zhou.

Zhou Xuan said in his heart: "If I hadn't agreed to your voice, the person who fired the hidden arrow wouldn't know where I was!"

But Judge Fan was obviously unintentional at fault. Seeing Mei Xiang Xiaoyuan caught fire, Marquis Anxin was safe and safe, it was the most normal to shout. It happened to be the opportunity of being caught by the assassin who was watching over.

Zhou Xuan ordered Gu Changshi to invite a doctor to contact Gu Liuquan and bandage Yang Xiaopin again to avoid infection. It would be a pity if the powder-pulled jade-burned arm left a scar.

Zhou Xuan and Si Chi and Judge Fan went to the "Yangchun Baixue Hall" to greet the Lin sisters. Fairy Jingyi and Lin Hanyun had both rested and were awakened by the shouts. When they heard that Mei Xiang Xiaoyuan had caught fire, they got up quickly to put on their clothes.

Zhou Xuan did not tell Fairy Jingyi and the others about the hidden arrows hurting people, so they could not worry.

Judge Fan urgently dispatched the troops to strengthen patrol. There were originally 60 soldiers in the Fenghua military residence. At the beginning of the year, he brought another hundred naval troops from Jiangzhou. He was immediately commanded by the navy general General Qi, and divided into four teams and guarded on all sides.

Gu Changshi arranged for Chen Ji, the Sun brothers and their servants to live in another courtyard temporarily. The west building of Meixiang Xiaoyuan could no longer be lived in, and it collapsed. Fortunately, this was an independent small building and the fire would not spread elsewhere.

Zhou Xuan, Judge Fan, General Gu, General Qi, and the four scammers discussed in the residence and unanimously determined that the culprit was Wei Bo. Judge Fan said angrily: "Marquis, the lower lord will go to the palace with the Marquis tomorrow to file a lawsuit. The capital area will set fire and kill people. This is not a rebellion, and what is it!"

Zhou Xuan frowned and said, "The one who set fire to the West Building must be the inner thief, deliberately causing chaos."

Judge Fan and Gu Changshi looked at each other and nodded together.

Zhou Xuan suddenly remembered something, his face changed, and he asked Siqi: "Second, do you see Lai Fu?"

Sichi said, "I didn't see it. Lai Fu lives on the first floor and should be able to run out soon when the fire stumbles."

Zhou Xuan was anxious. If something big happened, the loyal Lai Fu would definitely come to greet him, but he never saw him. What happened to Lai Fu?

Zhou Xuan and Judge Fan hurriedly returned to the east building of Meixiang Xiaoyuan. The fire had been put out, and the building was burning black and collapsed halfway.

Check out the people who originally lived in the East Tower, Chen Ji, Sun brothers and their slaves, and there were only a few of them. Lai Fu was not seen!

Gu Changshi said: "Is it because Lai Fu was sleeping so hard that he didn't run out when the fire broke out?"

Zhou Xuan shook his head. Although Lai Fu was not smart, he was not so slow!

Two soldiers of the mansion risked the collapse of the building and entered the room where Lai Fu lived, but did not find anyone inside.

After searching all the Fenghua military residence, Lai Fu disappeared without a trace. According to Sun Zhan's servant, he saw Lai Fu at night and later went back to his room to sleep.

Judge Fan, Gu Changshi, did not know the pros and cons of Lai Fu's arrest, and said, "If it were Wei Bo's hands, what would they do to capture a servant?"

Zhou Xuan looked at the Sichi. There were only three people who knew the cause of Wei Jue's death. Zhou Xuan and the others dared to kill but not arrest him. The Sichi and the others could not catch him, so they could only catch Lai Fu.

Zhou Xuan said in a deep voice: "I must find out the inner thief so that I can ask Wei Bo for someone, and Lai Fu must be saved."

The Fenghua Military Residence conducted a large-scale inventory of personnel. In addition to Lai Fu, there were 210 soldiers, servants, servants, and chefs in total, and there were no one. However, it was not easy to find out which one or two of the thieves among these 210 people!

There are four gates in Fenghua Military Palace. At night, two guards were guarding each gate. When the fire broke out, the eight guards guarding the gate were guarding the gate. They did not leave without leaving, nor did they see others entering and leaving. Of course, what they said was not necessarily credible.
