Chapter 174 The Blame Falls

When Qin Sheng and his party returned to the camp with the bodies of Duan Kaishen and his confidants, they were already cleaning up the battlefield, no, setting up the battlefield.

The clothes on these people were stripped off.

Then, under Xue Xu's guidance, the deaths of the people brought by Duan Kaishen, as well as the traces left by "accidentally" in the subtle places around them, all pointed to the bandits as the culprits.

The three brothers of the Qin family began to check the situation of the wounded. Because they had been prepared, the entire convoy was not successfully attacked. There were wounded, but no deaths. The seriously injured, slightly injured, and uninjured were sorted out, and then Qin Heng and Qin Zhao began to call out the names and select those who would do the night work later.

The brothers present, both the slightly injured and the uninjured, held their heads high and chests high, trying to make themselves look energetic and strive to be selected.

Qin Heng and Qin Zhao picked out a total of 20 people.

The coat of the confidant that Qin Sheng and his team brought back was also stripped off, and Qin Heng took it. It happened that his figure was a bit similar to that confidant.

"Those who were called just now, put on your coat and get ready to go!"

The others who were not selected were a little disappointed. At this time, Lu Songli smiled and said, "Everyone has work tonight. Those who are selected to do night work have heavy tasks, and those who stay have heavy tasks. So, cheer up!"

Her words calmed the emotions of those who were not selected in time.

Qin Heng and Qin Zhao took the information they had just tortured from the enemy. The two took away 20 people and drove away eight carriages. Each carriage had three or four boxes filled with stones.

After Qin Heng and Qin Zhao left, they spent some time to set up the scene.

Qin Sheng found an opportunity to tell Lu Songli that when he shot Duan Kaishen just now, there seemed to be movement on the hilltop a mile away.

Lu Songli nodded, indicating that she understood.

Lv Songli gathered everyone and told them about the overnight journey, "It's not suitable to stay here for long. Everyone should work hard tonight, travel at night, and rush to Youbeiping County at full speed."

Xue Xu understood that Lv Songli was planning to change her route, take another road, bypass Youzhou, and directly enter Youbeiping County without entering Youzhou City. He liked her decision more, a gentleman does not stand on a dangerous wall. He just heard that the person who ambushed them was none other than the nephew of Youzhou's chief clerk.

Before leaving, Lv Songli also checked the garrison for the last time, and only got on the car and left after confirming that there was no identity-pointing thing left.

Killing a small boss in the wild is nothing, the key is, touching the corpse! Otherwise, it's not her style to spend so much effort to kill a person and get nothing. In fact, she tends to let Qin Sheng, the little red hand, do it. However, if Qin Sheng leaves after withdrawing half of the force, they, the old, weak, women and children, will really get into trouble if they encounter danger.

Therefore, Lu Songli decisively asked Qin Sheng to stay and protect them. Anyway, touching corpses is unexpected wealth, and they will get as much as they can. The safety of their group is the top priority.

A villa under Duan Kaishen’s name

That night, the housekeeper of the villa has been guarding the gate.

As time passed, his expression changed from being calm at the beginning to frowning and solemn later.

Just as he stood up and decided to send some more people to see if the master was in trouble, there was a clattering sound from the ground outside the villa and the dull sound of the wheels of the carriage dragging heavy objects.

Not long after, the gate of the villa was knocked. After he exchanged slogans with the people outside, he decisively opened the door, "You are back? Oh, are you taking over the other party's carriage as well?"

But as soon as the door was opened, he was pushed aside. The housekeeper cursed in his heart that the people under Master Duan were still too rude!

Fortunately, someone was quick to support him, so he didn't lose his composure.

"Butler Xu, be careful."

The butler glanced at the man who was holding him. The other person was wearing familiar clothes. Because of the battle, his face had two mud marks and some blood marks on it. It was hard to tell who he was. But his master had many subordinates, so some of them were unfamiliar.

"Young man, what's your name?"

Wu Ren smiled and showed his white teeth, "Butler Xu can call me Xiaowu."

Qin Zhao next to him shouted, "Where is the warehouse?"

Screaming! Butler Xu rolled his eyes at him unhappily. This kid was running around and was rude.

"The warehouse is inside."

"Hurry up and lead the way!"

"Wait, Master Duan is not here?" Butler Xu squinted and looked outside. He didn't see Duan Kaishen himself, but saw his confidant A Kun. Butler Xu noticed that A Kun was about to walk towards him, but was stopped by a brother. The two were talking, and A Kun was blocked by the man halfway, and he was a little far away, so he couldn't hear what he was saying.

Wu Ren answered his question, and he only heard this sentence, "Stop talking, this time the idea is a bit hard, seven or eight people were killed, and some were injured. They all went back to the city with Master Duan to see a doctor. Master Duan didn't come, but Brother Kun came."

It's been two hours since they went out, right? This is right. Butler Xu nodded secretly.

"Brother Kun said just now that the carriage will not go in. We will take all the boxes off the carriage and move them directly into the warehouse."

"That's fine." The butler clicked his tongue. Such a heavy box must contain so many treasures.

Qin Zhao urged from the side, "Stop talking nonsense, Butler Xu, you should open the warehouse quickly. The brothers have been busy all night and are exhausted. After putting all this gold in, we can have a good rest."

"Okay, okay, stop rushing! Just follow me, I'll open it!" Steward Xu said as he walked towards the warehouse, thinking that the master didn't come in person, so he was a little bit grumbling, but these people acted like they had just been through a fierce battle. Their accents were mixed with the local accent of Youzhou. The master has many outsiders under his command, and their accents are mixed. The most important thing is that the other party's performance was too natural.

There were two strong servants guarding outside the warehouse.

At the moment the warehouse was opened, several figures suddenly rose up and suffocated Steward Chen and the two guards.

This scene happened to be seen by a servant who got up at night. He covered his mouth tightly, then squatted down quickly, his legs shaking badly.

Wu Ren asked people to move the three of them away to prevent them from blocking the road.

At this time, Qin Zhao winked at him and glanced at the servant's hiding place. Wu Ren immediately understood and shouted, "This Duan dared to rob our Qingfeng Village. I'm afraid he doesn't know how powerful Lord Ma is!"

Pa! Qin Zhao hit his head, "What Qingfeng Village? We are obviously from Qinglong Village! Remember this, if you say it wrong next time, you will be fined!"

While speaking, Qin Zhao's eyes vaguely swept towards the servant's hiding place.

Qingfeng Village: Damn, the blame fell from the sky!
