NOVEL NEXT Chapter 34
Di Renjie punched the car angrily. Damn it, it was almost there! They ran away.
Song Zhen's face was pale. He had just vomited.
He walked to the door, touched the dirt marks on it, and said in a deep voice: "It's not long since they left. There is still a chance."
The smile that Di Renjie had just revealed soon disappeared.
Yes, it wasn't long since they left, but where did they run to?
"Wait a minute, let me calculate the direction of their escape."
Song Zhen took a deep breath, walked into the hall, and carefully observed the footprints on the ground.
He simulated and deduced in his mind the scenes that had happened here.
Time went back, day and night changed, Song Zhen stood alone in the middle of the hall, he tilted his head, looked around every trace.
......
"What should I do? They found me."
"I told you, don't throw it in the well, even if you just find a mountain to bury it." The owner of the house kicked the chair down angrily.
"At that time, the situation was urgent. The person was arrested and the city gate was temporarily blocked. We had no other choice."
"Can we just throw him into the official well? Do you have any brains?"
"We have investigated this official well a long time ago. No one lives nearby. It is very safe."
The owner of the house angrily scolded: "Then why was it discovered?"
"It was because a farmer who didn't know how to live or die came here to fetch water. As a result, he felt that the taste was not right after taking a sip. He spit out a piece of rotten meat from his mouth, so he was scared and reported to the police."
"Stop talking, run."
"Run? Where to run? The clerk is still outside."
"This house belongs to that person. I know there is a secret passage leading to the outside of the city."
[Song Zhen actually couldn't hear the above conversation. He made up his mind based on the traces. 】
Song Zhen suddenly looked up at the northeast corner of the hall. He walked over and knocked on the ground with the Tang horizontal sword.
"There's a hollow drum here!"
"Officer, let me do it!"
Song Zhen turned his head and saw that it was Tian Qi, a simple and honest man.
Tian Qi's sturdy figure made him feel safe at first glance.
Tian Qi took out the butcher knife from his crotch, and then inserted it into the crack of the floor tile. He lifted it up with force, and the floor tile rose up, and a secret passage could be seen.
However, his butcher knife was broken, and the knife was not his. Tian Qi touched his head helplessly.
Song Zhen patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay. At worst, you don't kill pigs anymore. From now on, you can follow us and I will pay you."
"Really? Officer?"
"Why would I lie to you? How much money do you make from killing pigs? I'll give you three strings of cash a month!"
Tian Qi was so scared when he heard this number that he quickly waved his hand to refuse.
"No, not so much, Langguan, I'm easy to support, just give me 100 coins."
"How can 100 coins be enough? You can only buy 20 dou of rice." Song Zhen fell silent.
One dou of rice is equivalent to 12.5 jin now, and a family of five eats less than 20 dou of rice per month.
Moreover, prices in the Tang Dynasty were very cheap, 5 coins for one dou of rice (3 coins in Zhenguan), 20 coins for one stone of salt, and less than 20 coins for one jin of fresh fish.
......
Tian Qi refused the monthly salary of three guan, so Song Zhen had to reduce it to one guan.
"Listen! You will have to suffer if you follow us in the future."
"I'm not afraid of suffering!"
"......" Song Zhen continued to persuade, "What you will do in the future will be very dangerous, and one guan is not much."
Before, Tian Qi cooperated in dissecting the bodies of the Hu people and went down the well to salvage the rotten corpses. He was really walking on the edge of a knife.
Medical conditions in ancient times were backward, and there was almost no protection. I don't know why he was fine.
Maybe it was a special physique developed during the famine.
As they walked, Song Zhen stopped the two people beside him and whispered, "There may be someone ahead."
Di Renjie was immediately on guard, and he grabbed the horizontal sword at his waist.
Song Zhen looked at him with a serious expression and asked, "Huaiying, I have a doubt. If the gangster resists with a knife, I accidentally kill him, is it illegal?"
Di Renjie was stunned. After thinking for a while, he replied, "The Tang Dynasty law stipulates that the six killings are murder, fighting killing, play killing, manslaughter, intentional killing and negligent killing. You should want to ask whether there is excessive defense."
Song Zhen nodded. He was worried that in order to save his life, he would accidentally kill someone and go to jail or even be executed. That would be funny.
"We are now officials. Article 483 of the Yonghui Law states: Any official who beats someone to death or threatens someone to death due to official duties shall be subject to the law of manslaughter."
"Manslaughter? What is the sentence?" Isn't it still illegal? Shit.
Di Renjie smiled slightly: "Manslaughter is the lightest crime. Yonghui LawArticle 339: Those who negligently kill or injure others shall be punished with redemption according to the circumstances. "
"What do you mean?"
"Redemption means that copper is allowed to be used to redeem the crime."
I see, it means that it can be settled with money. Governor Lu is "one of us", so he will definitely show leniency, and he will probably pay a compensation of one or two hundred coins.
"Then I'm relieved." Song Zhen's eyes suddenly became fierce.
He walked in front, thinking that he could finally fulfill his martial arts dream.
But the next second, two knives chopped at him at the same time.
Song Zhen was so scared that he quickly held the handle with his right hand and put his left hand against the scabbard to block it.
Ding——
Oh my god! Sparks flew.
Song Zhen was forced to retreat two steps, and he shook his right hand, which was a little numb.
"Young people don't have martial arts ethics! One against two, right? "Song Zhen spitted and grinned, "Then I will show you some swordplay in the future."
His cousin was a stuntman in a movie, and Song Zhen liked to wield swords and guns with his cousin since he was a child.
Six-year-old Song Zhen was sent to a martial arts school by his parents during the winter and summer vacations to learn martial arts. The monthly fee was 6,000 yuan. They said it was for physical exercise, but in fact, they thought he was noisy and affected their world of two people.
Then he followed his stuntman cousin to learn swordplay and gunplay. When Song Zhen was fifteen, he said he didn't want to study, so his parents had no choice but to send him to the Shaolin Temple in Songshan for a year and a half. No one knew what he suffered in there, and he never mentioned it again.
Because he fell behind in his studies, he , so his parents spent a little money to train him to be an art student.
Song Zhen's dream when he was a child was to become a martial arts star like Zhao Wenzhuo, but he didn't expect that he would become a music trainee by mistake.
.......
Song Zhen inserted the scabbard into the ground with one hand, then ran quickly and pulled out the Tang sword on the ground with his right hand.
Ding——
When Song Zhen approached the opponent, he jumped slightly, and he chopped down with both hands holding the knife.
Chen San hurriedly blocked the knife, and he was almost unable to hold the weapon.
He suffered a loss, shouted loudly, and chopped towards Song Zhen with one hand .
However, what he could not have imagined was that Song Zhen's head-wrapping knife technique first used a preemptive attack and deliberately exposed his weakness.
In fact, there was a follow-up move.
Song Zhen sank the horizontal knife with one hand, forming a cross with Chen San's knife, blocking the fatal blow.
Then he kicked.
Chen San's knee was injured, and he staggered back a step.
But how could Song Zhen let him go?
Five consecutive double-handed knife slashes forced Chen San to be overwhelmed.
Seeing that the opponent's footsteps were frivolous, Song Zhen He turned and stepped back, changed his hands to one hand, and used a move to wrap around his head and jump down to chop the knife.
This knife was not only very handsome, but also very powerful. Chen San's mouth was bleeding, his hands were numb, and the horizontal knife fell out of his hand.
The above moves seemed very long, but in fact they only took five seconds.
Five seconds to decide the outcome!
At this moment, Song Zhen felt a sharp blade wind behind him, but he could not dodge in a short time, so he had to hurriedly turn the knife to his left hand to block it.
Ding——
The sharp sound of metal collision echoed in the narrow tunnel.
"Langguan, I'm coming! "Tian Qi held the knife in both hands and blocked behind Song Zhen.
The two fought back to back.
Hah!
Tian Qi pushed the opponent away with a sudden force, and then relied on his physical advantage to continuously swing the knife down!
He didn't have any fancy moves. In fact, it was the first time he used the Tang horizontal knife. He saw that Song Zhen was in danger, and he drew the knife from Di Renjie's waist in a hurry.
Song Zhen was like the parents of his reborn parents, that is, his reborn grandfather. How could he allow Song Zhen to fall into danger?
So, he came.
Song Zhen drew the cudgel from his waist, showed off the flower knife on the back of his hand, and turned the cudgel in his hand for a few circles. He put the cudgel against Chen San's neck.
"Don't move, if you move, you will die immediately! Can you try? "
Di Renjie ran over quickly, controlled Chen San's hands, and tied them up with ropes.
On the other side, the fight between Tian Qi and Zhu San entered a fierce stage.
Tian Qi's seemingly random slashing gave Zhu San a headache. The opponent relied on his physical advantage, and each of his slashes was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
How to fight?
