C595 undercover chuwei (2/2)
The sound of the horse's hooves quickly disappeared into the distance. Qiu Wei rushed to the backyard without any hesitation. He collected all the intelligence papers into the copper basin, poured some kerosene on it and lit it up.
Just as Qiu Wei was about to open the back door and flee, a cold female voice suddenly came from the opposite eaves, ”Qiu Wei …” The son of the Han Army's Green Camp, his father was a former Green Camp of the West in the capital. Due to being bewitched by Xiao Letian's western study, he defected to the Punishment Hall, and immediately returned to Chun Sanshiniang as the commander … ”
Qiu Wei was scared out of his wits. Without saying anything further, he raised his hand and fired three shots in the direction of the sound.
Pah pah pah … Three sharp gunshots were exchanged for a low cry from the residents of an alley, followed by the sound of people closing their doors.
Qiu Wei didn't dare to delay and immediately ran down the alley. With his life on the line, he drained the last of his potential. At that moment, his speed had almost surpassed Bolt's.
”How dare you!” How dare you shoot my Sister Wu … Ta ta ta ta sounds came from the rooftops on both sides of the alleyway as they spoke. Four Eagle Claw Sons and the Hidden Fog Kid chased after them.
Qiu Wei knew that Hidden Fog Kid was a pervert, and that it would be bad if she landed in his hands. Right now, she could only rely on her familiarity of the terrain to escape.
There were many streets and alleys in the south side of the city. Qiu Wei was running like crazy, the mud under his feet was splashing everywhere, and from time to time, he would shoot into the air to force back the Eagle Claw Sun.
After walking through four alleys, Qiu Wei was so tired that he couldn't even breathe. Flames were spewing out of his throat like a furnace. His heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of his chest.
His conviction to live supported him as he ran forward. Only when he saw an old man with white hair and beard in the fourth homostomia did he realize that his end was near.
”Phew … Phew … Phew …” Qiu Weila panted heavily like a bellows, ”Forbidden City …” Old... Old Ancestor! Hehe … Looks like I am hopeless today … There are wolves in front and tigers in the back! ”
That's right, the one who was blocking homostomia was the ancestor who was the number one martial artist in the Forbidden City, and he also had six disciples behind him who were all experts whose martial arts were not inferior to Hidden Fog Kid.
Qiu Wei stood motionlessly on the spot. In front of him was the Sister Wu, who was behind the Old Ancestor, and there was no escape for him. He flipped the revolver on his temple and shouted, ”Farewell, my brothers and sisters, I will not see the new world mentioned by the Prime Minister. Remember to burn some paper for me to burn some incense …” After saying that, he exerted force with his index finger.
Right at this moment, there was a crisp crack. Qiu Wei's left wheel was hit and sent flying by a small pebble. Qiu Wei's wrist even became numb from the shock.
It was the Old Ancestor. Without saying a word, he waved his hand and the disciples from both sides rushed over. The Old Ancestor then slowly walked toward Qiu Wei as if he was strolling leisurely in the park.
Qiu Wei's left hand held onto his numb right wrist as he stared coldly at the Old Ancestor. ”What?” You want him alive too? What do you want from me? You want to give it to that master of yours again? ”Humph, what a pity. You actually sold your martial arts to a jackal …”
At this time, a few of the Old Ancestor's disciples had already rushed to Qiu Wei's side and charged towards the Hidden Fog Kid behind him. The Old Ancestor glanced at him and said indifferently, ”Your father is also a General of the imperial court. You're so lucky, the imperial government has settled the score with Xiao Letian, I'm here to capture Hidden Fog Kid, go look for Er Mao, then you'll be safe … ”
With that, the Old Ancestor walked into the depths of the alley, leaving Qiu Wei in a daze.
”Me as an enemy? Hehehe, I should still be the one leading the family … ”Since when did this damned imperial court care about our family of generals?”
”When my father was very ill, he went to the camp to collect his monthly rations. What did he get in return? ”Half a bag of sandy brown rice, not a shred of silver. All of our money and rations have been taken away by the dog official …”
”What the hell is this!? My father didn't get greedy and end up dying from an illness, but those shameless people ended up drinking in the meat forest every night! How can I be loyal to a dirty court like this!”
Qiu Wei stared at the old ancestor's back as he fiercely said, ”You are just a dog, all you care about is whether the bones in front of you are more than enough …” ”The Prime Minister is right. When a person's heart has no homeland or dreams, they only fill it with their own selfish desires. These kinds of people are the slaves of desire. Regardless of their status, their souls will always be lowly!”
”To decide a person's nobility, to not care about their status, to not care about their reputation, to only care about their soul! You guys don't understand this logic, and there aren't many people in the entire Qing Dynasty who can understand it … Fortunately, the prime minister understands, as do we who have the courage to reverse the tide! The hope of this country is on us, that's all … ”
Qiu Wei picked up the handgun on the ground and started to run towards Jingshan. At this time, the disciples of the Old Ancestor were almost done with their battles, and the subordinates of Hidden Fog Kid all died on the spot.
”Sister Wu, you should just surrender. If you obediently die in front of Empress Dowager Ci An, you can still help your mistress vent her anger … As long as your life can save Empress Dowager Xi, your death can be considered to be worth it! ”
When the Sister Wu heard that, he spat out, ”You want me to die? Dream on! ” With that, she flew up to her room and fled towards the south.
