Chapter 135 This is the fate of the Xu family
Ling Chuan didn't dare to enter the city during the day, and waited until the city gate was about to close before sneaking in.
After entering the city, he stayed in the inn and did not dare to walk around. Later, he heard the noise in the Xu family compound and came out to watch the excitement.
But he never expected that the Xu family compound would cause such a big commotion. Especially when Ling Chuan found that the Xu family compound was surrounded by the barbarians, he was completely stunned.
Is the Investigation Bureau so fierce now?
Ling Chuan walked into the yard while gnawing on a chicken leg. As soon as he came in, he saw Duan Xifeng showing off his power. He even forgot to gnaw the chicken leg in his hand.
"Brother Duan, you are so impressive. I admire you."
The moment Duan Xifeng turned around, he was stunned. He quickly stepped forward and hugged Ling Chuan's arms, tears welling up in his eyes: "Brother Ling, I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay."
"Stop, stop, stop. We are all grown men, please stay away from me." Ling Chuan quickly broke free and scratched around with the chicken leg: "What's going on?"
"We are here to save you." Duan Xifeng said, and then immediately changed his words: "We are here to investigate the case, but the Xu family not only refused to cooperate, but also attacked us. We had no choice but to stop them, but there were some casualties in the fight."
Ling Chuan looked at at least a dozen people lying motionless on the ground, and then at the dozens of people being held in the corner by the guards, still wailing in pain. Suddenly, he found the chicken leg in his hand hard to swallow.
He thought for a moment, stuffed the chicken leg into Xu Lang's mouth, and said, "You call this some casualties?"
Ling Chuan and his friends hadn't had a good meal for a while, and Xu Lang had been hungry for two meals a day. Suddenly, there was a chicken leg in his mouth. He instantly ignored everything and started to wolf it down with his arm holding the chicken leg.
Duan Xifeng chuckled and said, "Brother Ling, you don't know that the brothers have been irritated by the Xu family for a long time, so when we started fighting, we were a little bit reckless."
Ling Chuan smacked his lips and was about to speak when Tu Yuan led people over: "Hey, Brother Ling, where did you come from?"
Without waiting for Ling Chuan to speak, Tu Yuan walked up to Magistrate Luo and grabbed him by the collar: "I went to the county office to stop this old man, but I didn't expect him to fall into my trap. Where is the legal advisor in your county office?"
County Magistrate Luo knew that the situation was hopeless, so he quickly bowed and said, "My Lords, all this was done by Yao Yifang. It has nothing to do with me. It has nothing to do with me. Please understand clearly."
Tu Yuan frowned: "What about the others?"
Magistrate Luo said with a sad face: "Yao Yifang...he disappeared two days ago. I don't know where he went."
"Then there will be no evidence." Tu Yuan snorted: "He is your master, this matter can only be blamed on you."
"Sir, please show some mercy. Yao Yifang is from Shao County, Yangzhou Prefecture. Can you..."
When Tu Yuan heard that they were still in Yangzhou Prefecture, he immediately gave up the idea of arresting Master Yao. He turned his head and ignored him, instead looking at Ling Chuan.
"Where have you been? It's so hard for us to find you. We've been so worried these days, afraid that something might have happened to you... Bah, bah, bah, at least you're okay, at least you're okay."
Ling Chuan was still a little confused at the moment: "The entire investigation department only has one or two hundred people. How many people did you bring to dare to attack the Xu family compound? Do you know how many people the Xu family has?"
"All the heads of the twelve offices of the Criminal Investigation Department are here except you." Tu Yuan smiled and said in a low voice: "Of course, with more than a hundred of us, how can we dare to touch the Xu family? Your good brother is here too."
"Good brother? Who is it?"
"Shi Xing, your brother is really kind. He brought three hundred people with him."
"He... isn't he from the Bingmasi? How can he lead troops out of Beijing?" Ling Chuan couldn't close his mouth.
Tu Yuan said, "Then I don't know. Anyway, the other three gates of the Xu family compound are all guarded by Lord Shi's soldiers."
Ling Chuan wanted to ask more questions when he saw several soldiers escorting a group of people from the Xu family out. Several people were carrying a soft bed with an old man lying on it, and Xu Kui was following closely beside them.
The scene suddenly froze.
Xu Kui looked at Ling Chuan, then at Xu Lang, and opened his mouth several times but couldn't say a word. It was not until the Xu family slowly lowered the soft bed and the old man on the bed saw Xu Lang that he suddenly became excited.
The old man on the soft bed was none other than Xu Mo, the old man of the Xu family who had suffered a stroke some time ago. At this moment, he was trembling all over, with a hideous face, and pointed at Xu Lang: "You...you...it's all your fault...it's all your fault...why don't you just die!"
Xu Mo's last sentence was roared out, perhaps he used up all his strength. He fell back after shouting. The Xu family members nearby saw it and immediately started shouting.
Xu Lang felt guilty, and after a brief silence, he turned around. But just as he turned around, he heard Xu Kui wailing, "Elder, elder... hurry up and call a doctor."
Xu Kui climbed up and rushed towards Ling Chuan, but was kicked back by a guard and then a long knife was put to his neck.
"Ling Chuan, Lord Ling, please ask someone to get a doctor to take a look. I beg you."
"I have no objection to you hiring a doctor, but I have a piece of advice for you..." Ling Chuan pointed left and right, "Given the Xu family's situation, it would be better to let him die and put an end to it. Saving him would only make him suffer."
Xu Kui was stunned. What Ling Chuan said was right. Although he didn't know how the Criminal Investigation Bureau dared to attack the Xu family compound, the matter had become so serious that it was irreversible.
No, there is still a possibility of recovery. Xu Kui suddenly had an idea and looked at Xu Lang with a gleam in his eyes.
"Third Young Master, the Xu family is what it is today thanks to you. If you still want to save the Xu family, you should know what to do."
Xu Lang was silent. He understood what Xu Kui said. As long as he died, the Criminal Investigation Bureau would at most charge the Xu family with a few murders to silence them. But if that incident was uncovered, the Xu family would be in great danger of being exterminated.
There was obviously a special meaning in Xu Kui's words, so everyone looked at Xu Lang. However, at this moment, Xu Kui shouted, suddenly jumped up, pushed away the man in front of him, and rushed towards Ling Chuan.
Everyone was shocked and tried to stop him. The person closest to Ling Chuan at this time was Tu Yuan. Seeing Xu Kui's desperate posture, he stabbed him with a knife, killing Xu Kui directly.
But in this lightning instant, Xu Lang also moved. He arched his shoulders and pushed Leng Wushuang away. Then he squatted slightly, stood up in an instant, and jumped onto the courtyard wall.
"Chuyi, don't let him get away!"
Before Ling Chuan finished shouting, Chu Yi had already caught up with him.
At this time, Xu Kui was not dead yet and was lying in a pool of blood twitching. He saw that Xu Lang not only did not commit suicide, but chose to escape instead, and despair suddenly welled up in his eyes.
Ling Chuan leaned over and whispered, "Just accept it, this is the fate of your Xu family!"
Xu Kui's eyes gradually dimmed and finally became dead silent.
