Chapter 31: Luring the Enemy 1



The grass and trees were broken and the ground was in a mess.

There were traces of wild animals everywhere, and there were also a lot of wolf feces. Several killed gray wolves were thrown aside randomly, and next to these gray wolves were pieces of torn body parts.

Zhou Liuyun, who was wearing a bright red robe and had a solemn aura, looked at the corpse on the ground. He suddenly felt a black screen in front of his eyes and his body shook suddenly!

Li Laoshi, Zhao Laohu, Lin Baimei...

These guards died here, so what about the people they were responsible for protecting? What about his disciples Li Qian and Zhao Kuo?

More than a hundred strong and sturdy men who followed Zhou Liuyun from the capital of Dajin and returned to Yizhou and had just been assigned to the Yizhou Court of Justice two days ago stood silently behind Zhou Liuyun, their faces tense and not daring to make a sound.

Nearly a hundred feet away from them, hundreds of Chu's private soldiers were holding powerful bows and crossbows, confronting them from a distance.

"What is this place? Who are these people?" After a long time, Zhou Liuyun asked in a hoarse voice.

Ling Yue trembled as he walked out of the crowd. He bowed deeply to Zhou Liuyun respectfully and said, "Master Zhou, this is a mine of the Chu family. These people are the guards of the Chu family's mine. In fact, they are the Chu family's private soldiers!"

Ling Yue quickly glanced at Zhou Liuyun, whose face was pale, and pointed at several bodies on the ground that were torn to pieces by the gray wolves, and the bison leather armor on their bodies was torn into pieces. The bison leather armor on the ground was exactly the same as the armor on the Chu family's private soldiers opposite.

Zhou Liuyun wanted to ask something when he heard footsteps from behind. Chu Jie came rushing over with a large group of guards.

"What's going on? Zhou Liuyun, what are you doing in my Chu's mine? Ling Yue, why are you here too?"

Just now, Zhou Liuyun rushed past with a large group of people in a hurry. Chu Jie and Sima Zhuifeng were surprised and curious, and they followed him with their people. Following all the way, seeing that Zhou Liuyun actually broke into his own mine, Chu Jie was immediately anxious and angry!

What is worrying is that this mine is claimed to be a copper mine, but in fact it is a gold mine secretly mined by the Chu family. If this news gets out, and the Chu family dares to snatch the exclusive business of the Dajin royal family, they will be in big trouble.

What made him angry was that he actually saw Ling Yue here!

"You, why are you here?" Chu Jie strode in front of Ling Yue, grabbed his collar and shouted: "Is this where you should be? Who gave you the courage?"

Zhou Liuyun turned around abruptly and shouted at Chu Jie, "Chu Jie, shouldn't you explain why the guard of my disciple Zhou Liuyun died here?"

Chu Jie pushed hard, Ling Yue screamed, and was pushed to the ground by Chu Jie and couldn't get up for a long time.

Chu Jie had a gloomy face, and his fair and handsome face was covered with dark clouds. He approached Zhou Liuyun fearlessly, almost touching his face, and shouted sternly: "What guards? What? This is my Chu's mine, this is my Chu's territory. Who gave you the courage to break in here?"

Zhou Liuyun straightened his neck suddenly and shouted: "I am..."

Chu Jie suddenly let out a long roar, and his heavy punch exploded like thunder, hitting Zhou Liuyun's lower abdomen with an extremely fierce punch.

Zhou Liuyun was caught off guard and cried out in pain. He was hit by a punch and flew more than three meters off the ground. His body curled up and flew seven or eight meters backwards, then he fell headfirst to the ground and rolled over.

A large group of officers from the Imperial Court shouted in unison and drew their weapons to rush towards Chu Jie.

The sound of clanging continued in the ears. Hundreds of heavily armored guards behind Chu Jie also drew their weapons, formed a charging formation, and rushed towards the Tingwei Mansion without hesitation.

A hundred feet away, someone among the private soldiers of the Chu's mine let out a long roar. They raised their powerful crossbows and marched in neat steps towards Zhou Liuyun's subordinates.

Zhou Liuyun held his stomach with both hands, knelt on one knee on the ground, raised his head in embarrassment and shouted angrily: "Chu Jie, I am the inspector of the Tingwei Mansion of the Great Jin Dynasty, how dare you hurt me?"

"The one who hurt you is a bandit who can suppress three states. What does it have to do with my Chu family?" Chu Jie shook his right fist and shouted at Zhou Liuyun with a murderous look on his face: "The one who hurt you is a bandit who can suppress three states. The one who killed you must also be a bandit who can suppress three states! What do you think, Sima Taishou?"

Surrounded by a large group of guards, Sima Zhuifeng also walked quickly over here.

Seeing the two parties on the verge of a fight, Sima Zhuifeng was slightly stunned, and suddenly smiled: "Young Master Chu, Lord Zhou, why don't we calm down and sit down to talk reason?"

Zhou Liuyun stood up staggeringly, with a trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth.

He raised his sleeves and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth vigorously, looking at Chu Jie with a look of horror. This kid is so young, but his punch is so heavy. The punch just now shook Zhou Liuyun's internal organs, and he suffered some internal injuries.

What shocked Zhou Liuyun even more was that this kid actually dared to take action!

Seeing the tense posture of the Chu family's private soldiers around him, Zhou Liuyun had no doubt that as long as Chu Jie gave the order, these arrogant private soldiers would really dare to kill him and all his subordinates on the spot.

If someone was really killed in this deep forest, who could Zhou Liuyun turn to for justice?

After a few dry laughs, Zhou Liuyun waved his hand and said, "Put away your weapons. What do you want to do? Today's events are very strange. We must not fall into the trap of others' provocation."

The officers of the Imperial Court who were around Zhou Liuyun put away their weapons. Chu Jie snorted coldly and raised his chin slightly. The heavily armored guards around him also put down their weapons, but the mine guards who were already approaching to within twenty feet still aimed their heavy crossbows at Zhou Liuyun and the others.

"Oh, someone is really dead! Oh, Brother Zhou, no wonder you ran as if your father had died, someone is really dead!"

An exclamation was heard from afar, and Zhou Liuyun's face suddenly turned dark. The expressions of Chu Jie and Sima Zhuifeng also became extremely strange.

Then they saw six burly men beside Zi Xiaosheng who had gotten some bamboos from somewhere, tied two chairs together to make a stretcher, and carried Zi Xiaosheng and Aunt Feng as fast as galloping horses. The speed of these six men was amazing. When Zi Xiaosheng was talking, they were still two or three miles away. Before he could finish a sentence, they had already run in front of Chu Jie and others.

Without waiting for the six big men to stop, Zi Xiaosheng had already floated into the air, his feet seemed to be stepping on invisible steps. He took a few steps in the air and landed lightly on the ground.

He smiled and bowed to Zhou Liuyun, "Brother Zhou, I haven't seen you for a few months. You don't look very well. Your eyebrows are dark, and there is a black gas rising from your head that is seven or eight feet high. You must be careful when drinking cold water these days, otherwise you will choke to death!"
