Chapter 9 Containment (Remastered)
"Just run away!" Chen Hao didn't care at all.
In the original movie, Chen Lian accidentally killed Ling Yunkai and ran away. This time, Chen Hao killed Ling Yunkai and she had no chance to run away at that time, but she still ran away today!
The run away from Hokage was also good news for Chen Hao, and at least it returned to the original plot.
Chen Lian said angrily: "It's all my fault. I shouldn't have rescued her yesterday. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have killed Ling Yunkai!"
"Brother likes her?" Chen Hao didn't take Chen Lian's words, and this guy clearly showed his quarrel.
"I..." Chen Lian's face turned red suddenly, and he finally nodded under Chen Hao's gaze.
Chen Hao smiled and said, "Haha, since my elder brother likes it, it is worth it."
"Oh! I just have implicated Changqing you!" Chen Lian sighed.
Chen Hao said freely and easily: "I don't care. I am the eldest brother in this world, so how can I get any implicit!"
"It's the big brother who's here!" Chen Lian walked to Chen Hao and patted his shoulder twice, and said with some guilt: "Good brother!"
"Oh, by the way, what kind of firearm did you use when you killed Ling Yunkai yesterday? Why have you never seen me before?"
Chen Lian would definitely not say that it was a pistol from the 21st century, so he continued to make up lies: "It was a musket made by the red-haired ghost country. I brought one when I came back from Guangzhou!"
"Oh, it turns out it's the musket of the red-haired ghost, it's so powerful!" Chen Lian really believed it. After all, he had never been to the West. He hadn't even heard about the West several times before Chen Hao came. He still trusted Chen Hao quite a bit, even the Hokage Courtyard where Chen Hao went last night because he was worried about him! If it were another person, he would never believe it so easily.
"Brother, be careful in the future. Pei Lun is asking me for a drink today!" Chen Hao didn't want to talk about the pistol, so he brought the topic to Pei Lun.
Pei Lun? Chen Lian's face became more serious. He said, "Pei Lun was specially sent by the Nanfu Department to investigate the murder of Ling Yunkai. How could he ask you to drink?"
"How did you deal with Ling Yunkai's affairs?" Chen Hao said: "Pei Lun was thanking me for pulling Yin Cheng on the surface, but in fact he wanted to ask you about it from me. Perhaps, maybe, he has already determined that you were the murderer who killed Ling Yunkai!"
"After you leave, I will deal with all the possible exposed problems. Ling Yunkai's Impermanence Book was also burned by me. Then I arranged Hokage in a remote courtyard!" Chen Lian's expression was grim. After pondering for a while, he said in a affirmative tone: "If there is a place that attracts Pei Lun's attention, there are only two points. One is the Impermanence Book. Except for the people inside the Jinyiwei, few people will destroy others' Impermanence Book. The second is the dispute between Ling Yunkai and I in Jinling Building the night before yesterday!"
"How did you report to Lu Qianhu?" Chen Hao said again.
Chen Lian said: "I said someone rescued Hokage and killed Ling Yunkai, and the murderer used a firearm!"
Chen Hao nodded. Of course he knew that Pei Lun was because of these two suspicions.
In the original movie, Chen Lian forced Yin Cheng to death, and Pei Lun targeted Chen Lian everywhere. In Chen Hao's opinion, it was not entirely true. Even if Chen Lian did not force Yin Cheng to death, Pei Lun would still investigate Chen Lian. It has nothing to do with anything else, but only his personal future. It is a great contribution to finding the murderer who killed Wei Zhongxian's nephew.
call out!
A sharp arrow cut through the quiet night sky and nailed it to the door not far away from Chen Lian.
"Who?" Chen Hao and Shen Lian immediately clenched the Xiuchun Sword.
"There is a piece of paper." Chen Lian hurriedly pulled out the bow and arrow, and the piece of paper read: "The rule of the Ming Dynasty, the one who killed the Jinyiwei was guilty of accomplice and rebellion. The three tribes of Yi were in the third hour of the year, and the slope of Yunxi, the west mountain."
Chen Lian looked at the back as if it was ashen and handed it to Chen Hao. He pretended to look at it, his expression became very serious, but his heart was sad for Chen Lian.
This must have been because after Hokage ran away, he told Zhu Youjian about Chen Hao killing Ling Yunkai through Ding Baiying. Zhu Youjian wanted to use Chen Lian to kill Ling Yunkai, and also the safety of Hokage, to force Chen Lian to burn the document warehouse. Chen Lian was like a fool from beginning to end. In order to save Hokage, Zhu Youjian and the others were fooled around, but they didn't know that Hokage was Zhu Youjian's girl.
Chen Lian is so smart in normal times that he becomes a complete fool when he meets a woman!
"Let's go to Yunxipo, don't forget to hold your Western musket!"
Chen Lian was very straightforward at this time, and he did not forget to remind Chen Hao to hold the pistol.
Yunxipo is located west of the capital, not close to Chen Lian’s home. It was already four o’clock when the two brothers walked to the place, about 11:30 p.m.
Yunxipo is a bamboo forest. The environment itself is dark and even dark at night. After Chen Lian and Chen Hao entered the bamboo forest, they could only walk slowly, beware of whether they would be ambushed.
Suddenly Chen Lian raised his hand and pointed in front of him. Chen Hao looked around and saw a figure sitting on a stone not far away. The two looked at each other and slowly approached.
"Is it you?" Chen Lian asked when he was five or six meters away from the figure.
The man didn't answer, turned around and ran away, and Chen Hao and the others hurriedly chased after him.
The man ran very fast, and Chen Lian was not slow. After chasing for dozens of meters, Chen Lian slashed on the back of the figure with a knife, and a "clang" sound came from.
After a knife, the man stopped, Chen Lian stopped, and it was not until then that Chen Hao came late. His speed was a flaw.
"Why don't you run away?" Chen Lian asked.
The figure did not speak and slowly turned around. It was a beautiful girl, who looked like she was eighteen or nineteen years old. She pulled out a shield from her back. No wonder Chen Lian's knife failed to hurt her. It turned out that it was slashing the shield behind her.
At the same time, a burly man holding a mace suddenly appeared behind Chen Hao, blocking the two of them.
A moment later, a woman in green holding a long knife walked out of the bamboo forest. The woman was tall and beautiful, but her beautiful face was cold, like an ice beauty. Chen Hao knew that this cool and heroic woman was Ding Baiying.
"You seem to regret killing that Jinyiwei?" Ding Baiying said lightly.
Chen Hao was about to speak, but Chen Lian took the lead and said, "Where is that girl in Hokage? I want to see her!"
Chen Hao was speechless. Before the conditions were negotiated, you showed your trump card, let alone your trump card is still the other party’s person!
Ding Baiying said: "That girl is an important witness to the killing of the Jinyiwei. How could I bring her easily?"
"You have a condition." Chen Hao took over the topic, he was too lazy to argue with them.
"Happy!" Ding Baiying looked at Chen Hao in surprise and said, "You are more direct than Chen Lian. I want you to burn the document warehouse of the Beizhen Fushi."
"Impossible, the document library of the Beizhen Fushi Department is a confidentiality and is Lingchi's serious crime!" Chen Lian refused without thinking.
"Okay!" Ding Baiying smiled slightly and said, "Would you like to catch the adults and meet the officials, or do you choose the filing documents!"
After saying that, the three of them surrounded Chen Hao and Shen Lian.
"Two and three may not necessarily have a chance of winning. Chen still has the skill to escape!" Chen Lian said word by word.
"Oh! Lord Shen may run away!" Ding Baiying put his eyes on Chen Hao and said, "But, where is this Lord Shen? Seeing his powerless look, I decided that he could not run away! And according to my observation, he did not carry a musket!"
In an instant, the eyes of the people present fell on Chen Hao.
Chen Hao: “…”.
