Chapter 516: The Shen Family Wants to Take Over
After working for a long time, the fire was finally put out.
Looking at the wisps of black smoke rising into the night sky, Xu Pinggui's anger, which he had suppressed for a long time, finally erupted:
“What’s going on?
Everything is fine, why is there a fire here?
Where is the person in charge of patrol tonight? Why didn't they notice the fire immediately?
But there was silence all around, and no one stood up to speak.
Xu Pinggui was furious. "Investigate, check everything. This isn't a simple fire; someone deliberately set it on fire. Close the investigation!"
No one will be able to sleep tonight unless the arsonist is found."
"This fire is hard to investigate, isn't it?" Ren Erlang came out.
"Sir, who would be so desperate as to burn this place down? It's not even built yet, and there's nothing valuable here.
I think this fire was an accident. It might have been caused by the dry weather, and the fire came from nowhere and ignited the place."
"Accident?"
Xu Pinggui grabbed Ren Erlang by the collar, his face cold and cruel:
"Are you stupid?
It's late at night, where is the fire nearby? How could it start a fire here without a fire source? Use your brain to think about it."
Ren Erlang lost his temper. He forcefully opened Xu Pinggui's hands and said, "Xu Pinggui, what do you mean? Let me go!"
He took two steps back and glared at Xu Pinggui angrily:
"What's wrong with you? Someone started a fire nearby during the day, and maybe it didn't go out, and the night wind blew it back on, and then the fire was carried to the nearby firewood. What's the problem with that?"
Xu Pinggui sneered, "If I say you are stupid, then you are stupid, you..."
"Xu Pinggui, I have tolerated you for long enough. Who do you think you are? Just because you call me Master, do you really think you are the master? I tell you, you are just a servant like me." Ren Erlang interrupted Xu Pinggui with an extremely ugly expression.
"Ren Erlang, you're asking for a fight!"
Xu Pinggui couldn't bear it any longer, so he rushed forward and punched Ren Erlang hard in the face.
Bang!
Ren Erlang was hit by a punch and retreated in embarrassment.
Then he raised his head suddenly, touched his cheek, and rushed forward with his fist clenched in anger.
The two of them fought each other instantly.
The people nearby rushed forward to stop them, but anyone who tried to dissuade them was knocked away, and the scene was in chaos.
Shen Zhixuan, who was not far away, watched this scene with a hint of sarcasm on his lips.
idiot.
Who are you trying to fool with this little trick?
He turned his head to look across the river. It had been such a long time and there was no movement from the other side. There were also many people on the street that had not come out. It seemed that he was really knocked unconscious.
Even if you weren't knocked out before, it doesn't matter if you pretended.
They definitely can't escape this hurdle.
Shen Zhixuan looked at the fire scene in front of him with thick smoke, and a hint of scorn appeared on the corner of his mouth. Just one breath of this thick smoke...
Bang, bang, bang!
Suddenly, the people surrounding Xu Pinggui and Ren Erlang fell to the ground one after another, and Xu Pinggui and Ren Erlang's bodies began to shake.
In the end, the two of them also fell to the ground.
A hint of pride flashed across Shen Zhixuan's face. Great, the medicine is working.
At this time, faint exclamations were heard from the other side of the river.
The smugness on Shen Zhixuan's face grew even larger.
Xu Pinggui looked up and saw the Shen family still standing, and suddenly realized, "It's you, isn't it?
You set the fire, and you took the opportunity to drug us, right?"
Shen Zhixuan shook his head, a hint of pride in his eyes, "Half right, half wrong.
I put the medicine in, but the fire..."
He shook his head. "That's not me."
"Impossible!" Xu Pinggui struggled and stood up shakily.
"No one else but you."
"Who said that?" Shen Zhixuan looked at the staggering Xu Pinggui with cold eyes, "Don't you know how annoying your Xu family is?
Today is the day you become a stranger to the Xu family.
Xu Pinggui, you don't have to hold on any longer, it's useless."
Xu Pinggui shook his head. He drew his sword and pointed it at him shakily. "I'm here. You can't succeed."
After saying that, he stumbled forward with his sword raised.
But after taking just two steps, he fell to the ground in a mess.
Shen Zhixuan looked at his miserable state and laughed heartily, with mockery in his eyes, "You still want to kill me? I should kill you!"
Shen Zhixuan laughed at this, with a cruel look on his face:
"Now it's my turn to take your life!"
He had long disliked these people, this bunch of Xu family's lackeys.
Shen Zhixuan slowly took out a dagger from his arms and walked directly towards Xu Pinggui.
But after taking just three steps, Shen Zhixuan's face changed drastically, and his whole body fell to the ground uncontrollably.
After he fell, the other members of the Shen family behind him also fell down.
Xu Pinggui was stunned for a moment and then laughed.
"Shen Zhixuan, it turns out you are just being used as a pawn.
Haha, you are even more pitiful than us! You do things for others, get hired, and then count the money for them, you idiot. "
"Shut up!" Shen Zhixuan's face was very ugly. He glared at Xu Pinggui fiercely, then turned his head in embarrassment and looked in one direction:
"Damn it, you lied to me, get out of here."
As he finished speaking, a familiar figure walked out from the darkness.
This person is Li Xianlie.
Looking at the people lying on the ground, Li Xianlie did not have a trace of pride on his face.
Very good.
Finally, we were able to wipe out all the people in the Xu family in one fell swoop.
"You drugged me?" Shen Zhixuan glared at Li Xianlie angrily:
"What the hell are you doing? You're taking me down with you.
Li Xianlie, if you don't want to die, I order you to give me the antidote immediately!"
Shen Zhixuan's movements were too dramatic, and he finally attracted Li Xianlie's attention. He sneered:
"Are you stupid?
If he didn't mean to, do you think I would attack you?"
A fool who is stupid and unaware of it is not worth his calculation.
Shen Zhixuan's face turned pale instantly, and he shook his head in disbelief:
"No, no, the General would not do that to me.
He promised me that after the matter was accomplished, he would let me serve as his military advisor in the Zhenbei Army, and that everyone in our Shen family could join the army and strive for honors."
This is the only chance for his Shen family to rise.
"Naive, you?" Li Xianlie sneered, his eyes full of mockery:
"With your brain, you still want to be his military advisor? You're not even worthy of carrying his shoes. No wonder he wants to leave no one from Yuancheng alive."
Shen Zhixuan's face turned pale in an instant, realizing that he had been fooled by them.
As soon as Li Xianlie said this, many people became agitated.
"You lied to me? You clearly said that I helped you, that you had a way to help me leave here, and that you would use me. You are simply a liar."
"Liar, you will die!"
"Wow, I was wrong. I feel so sorry for Madam Xu and the others."
…
Five or six people in the crowd began to wail.
Li Xianlie said with disdain, "If you can betray the Xu family today, you can betray us tomorrow. Do you think we will use traitors like you?
Don't worry, since you helped us, I will let you die quickly."
Looking at these frightened expressions, Li Xianlie couldn't control the pride in his heart.
At this moment, Shen Zhixuan looked ferocious and frantically shouted into the distance:
"Song Yi, get out here.
You actually lied to me, stop being a coward and get out of here."
…
Li Xianlie's face darkened. He walked over with a cold expression and kicked Shen Zhixuan in the mouth.
With a click.
Shen Zhixuan's jaw was twisted and he cried out in pain.
Li Xianlie sneered, "Who do you think you are? You're yelling here, but no one from the Xu family yelled, so why are you yelling?"
At this point, Li Xianlie's expression paused.
He narrowed his eyes dangerously, then looked coldly at Xu Pinggui and others.
Something is wrong. They haven't driven the car since I showed up.
He subconsciously looked across the river and didn't see anything unusual, so he breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing the Xu family so calm, she almost thought she had failed again.
He looked at Xu Pinggui with a mocking expression, "You never thought this day would come, did you?
how?
I am a person who values talent. As long as you sincerely submit to me and serve me as your master, I can spare your life."
He knew very well how brave this man was in fighting.
If he follows me, I don't have to worry about my safety at all.
Xu Pinggui suddenly laughed and shook his head:
"Do you think you would follow a scumbag like you?"
Seeing that he was ungrateful, Li Xianlie's face darkened.
"Humph, since you don't know how to appreciate my kindness, don't blame me for being rude."
"Are you sure you can really be rude to us?" Xu Pinggui shook his head and sneered:
"Li Xianlie, sometimes it's better for people not to be so arrogant, otherwise they will get slapped in the face and get hurt!"
Listening to Xu Pinggui's arrogant words, Li Xianlie suddenly felt uneasy, but he quickly put it behind his mind. He looked at Xu Pinggui with a gloomy face:
“Guess how many people are coming here now?
I tell you, it will scare you to death.”
"You mean five hundred people?" Xu Pinggui looked at him sympathetically.
"If I tell you that they can't come and you can't kill us, will you still be able to laugh?"
Haha, you have such a big face.
It's naive to think that they are scared by just 500 people.
"How is that possible? And how do you know there are five hundred people?" Li Xianlie snorted coldly, but the next second he widened his eyes.
