at this time.

"Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom!"

"Open the door!"

"Prefect Cheng is here, why don't you open the door quickly?"

"Pinxiang Pavilion has been surrounded at all levels. You have no wings to fly. If you don't open the door, you will be dead!"

"Get ready to knock on the door!"

"..."

Suddenly there was an extremely chaotic noise outside the gate a few yards away. It was Cheng Yu who, after hearing Bai Jingjing's whistle, led the Chenliu garrison ambushing nearby to come to support Wu Liang.

If possible, Wu Liang would never fight an unprepared battle and naturally made foolproof arrangements.

In fact, as early as when he subdued Qiong'er and those "red men", he could already teach Bai Jingjing to whistle and recruit Cheng Yu's Chenliu garrison to deal with these servants. This way, he would be more foolproof, and there would not even be any

Necessary to dirty their own hands.

But Wu Liang did not do this.

Just because he still has his own Xiao Jiujiu in his heart...

finally.

"I'm sorry, shopkeeper. Although it's not a pity for a villain to die, I can't harm my mother at home under any circumstances."

The arrival of Chen Liu's garrison completely defeated the last trace of luck in the hearts of those servants. One of the servants who reacted the fastest took the lead and reached out to grab the shopkeeper who was about to escape.

"Don't let him run away, otherwise it will be us who die!"

"What are you waiting for, catch him!"

"The villain has surrendered. Please spare my life..."

"..."

One stone stirred up a thousand waves, and all the servants who knew that the situation was over immediately turned against each other and rushed towards the shopkeeper, fearing that a step too late would make Wu Liang unhappy and lead to death for themselves.

Some of the servants quickly put down their weapons and knelt down, begging Wu Liang for mercy.

"Traitor! A traitor who cheats and cheats!"

Seeing that the servants had surrounded him, the shopkeeper was so angry that his eyes were about to burst and he cursed loudly.

But at this time, he still refused to surrender, and actually rushed straight towards one of the servants. With a collision, he violently snatched the ring-headed knife from the servant's hand, and chopped it with all his strength without any method.

"Wow!"

The servants were afraid of hurting themselves, so they quickly stepped back to give the shopkeeper some space.

The shopkeeper put the knife in front of him, but suddenly looked back at Wu Liang, raised the corner of his mouth with a strange smile, and laughed arrogantly: "You are here for the 'Nightmare Technique', right?

Yes, this 'Nightmare Technique' is my unique secret technique, and I did all those things. You can find out here that you do have some skills, but if you think that you can teach me how to subdue the law, then it's a big mistake.

That’s so wrong, hahahaha, you can’t kill me!”

After saying this.

"Whoosh!"

Without giving Wu Liang any time to react, the shopkeeper suddenly put the Huanshou knife across his neck, and then used another force!

"Puff——"

The shopkeeper's throat had a gash about two inches deep, and if it weren't for the backbone supporting it, his entire head would have been cut off.

Blood spurted out from the open mouth like a fountain, instantly turning the large open space at his feet red.

What he said is absolutely correct.

Wu Liang really couldn't kill him, because he had already killed himself before Wu Liang took action.

"Oh……"

The group of servants had never seen such a bloody scene. They were all so frightened that they took a few steps back, their pupils shrinking constantly.

"This... Young Master?"

When Dian Wei saw this, he quickly looked at Wu Liang.

At the beginning of tonight's operation, Wu Liang had specifically told them to capture as many people as possible before finding Cao Ang and Cao Zhen. Unexpectedly, the shopkeeper was so decisive that Dian Wei had no chance to stop them.

"My head is about to fall off, even if the gods come, I can't save it."

Wu Liang shook his head and sighed.

Although Wu Liang had never seen anything like drawing a sword and killing himself, he had heard a lot about it. If he wanted to commit suicide, he didn't need to be so ruthless. He only needed to cut the arteries in his neck. The medical technology of this era was already incapable of doing anything.

Moreover, Wu Liang felt that even if someone really wanted to die, very few people could be so cruel to him.

He suspected that there was something fishy about this matter, and even suspected that the shopkeeper's suicide might not be his own will, but more like silence...

The basis for this suspicion was the weird smile the shopkeeper showed him at the end.

He felt a hint of provocation from that smile.

"But Young Master, we haven't had time to interrogate the whereabouts of Cao Ang and Cao Zhen, what should we do?"

Yu Ji then asked with some worry, this is one of the purposes of their operation...

"Isn't there still someone alive?"

Wu Liang looked back at Qiong'er and the "red men" who were lying in the hall, and grinned.

…

It won't take long.

When Cheng Yu led his troops to rush in, he was shocked when he saw the scene in the courtyard.

More than twenty servants were all disarmed and kneeling on the ground, shivering. Next to them lay a corpse with its neck cut in half, and a large pool of blood flowed out.

In the living room, in addition to the four Zhangtai women who were lying limply on the ground with disheveled hair, there were nine servants.

These nine servants were either injured by arrows and lying on the ground moaning in pain, or they were chopped and lost the ability to resist. Among them, three unlucky ones had their vital organs injured and died completely.

At first glance, this scene looks like a great battle.

But let’s look at Wu Liang and others.

There were a total of five people in the group, including a weak woman. They were all standing in the hall perfectly fine. Not to mention whether they were injured or not, they didn't even look embarrassed at all. At most, they only had a little blood splattered on their bodies...

"this……"

Cheng Yu was stunned, and quickly walked up to Wu Liang, looked him up and down and asked with concern, "I'm a step late, is General Wu not injured?"

He not only cares about Wu Liang, but also cares about himself.

Wu Liang is now the celebrity in front of Boss Cao. If he is injured due to this incident, but Cheng Yu and Chen Liu's defenders do not use a single shot or a sword, Boss Cao will definitely blame him.

"Thanks to the guardian Cheng, we are safe and sound."

Wu Liang smiled.

Cheng Yu suddenly felt relieved. He turned around and looked at the servants lying and kneeling on the ground, as well as the dead corpses, but he couldn't help but said: "Then..."

"Thanks to Governor Cheng arriving in time to support us, we worked together with Governor Cheng to defend against the enemy, and finally captured all the traitors, killing several enemies and injuring several others. Governor Cheng's hard work has made great achievements this time, and Chen Liu's garrison also deserves a lot of credit.

No, I will definitely reward you when you come back."

Wu Liangchong and Cheng Yu blinked and said with a smile.

"this?"

Cheng Yu was slightly startled, but he quickly reacted and lowered his voice and winked at Wu Liang and said, "General Wu is so humble on weekdays... This time I owe General Wu another favor, plus

For the previous ten kilograms of gold, I am willing to write another IOU to General Wu, and from now on I will owe General Wu twenty kilograms of gold."

"When will it be returned?"

Wu Liang turned around and asked.

"Uh...as soon as possible. General Wu also knows that I don't have a lot of salary. When I have enough money, I will take the initiative to send it to my door."

Cheng Yu smiled awkwardly, and quickly changed the topic like an old man, and then looked around and asked, "General Wu, the envoy is still waiting for our news.

Have you found out the whereabouts of the eldest son?"

"The boss of the envoy committed suicide before he could give an explanation."

Wu Liang pointed to the corpse of the shopkeeper in the yard, frowned slightly and said, "As for the remaining people, I haven't had time to interrogate them yet. Please ask Governor Cheng to immediately order Chen Liu's garrison to search Pinxiang Pavilion. Don't miss any place."

Please ask Governor Cheng to interrogate with me, maybe we can find out the whereabouts of the eldest son."

"good!"

Cheng Yu naturally had no objection, and immediately ordered people to tie up the group of servants, and arranged for some soldiers to search the Pinxiang Pavilion, while he and Wu Liang entered the hall together.

"My lord, please spare my life..."

"The villain has already done what the officer wanted. The officer promised to spare the villain..."
To be continued...
