Chapter 94 Death of Sheng Kuang
Pan Lin felt that this world was not worth it.

They are all captains, why is there such a big difference between them?
One who dares to do something but is not willing to take responsibility for it wants to apologize.

One hasn't even sat down yet, but he's already thinking about where to sit next.

At this moment, it was impossible for Pan Lin to say that he had no regrets in his heart.

But he didn't want to look back.

"No! I have to find a way to make them fight."

Suddenly, Pan Lin thought of something and asked, "Mingsir, do you know Jiao Zhengqiang in Taimo County?"

"I know." Xu Gong curled his lips in disdain.

But Pan Lin's next words shocked Xu Gong: "Then do you know why Jiao Zhengqiang was killed by Jin Mao?"

Without waiting for Xu Gong to speak, Pan Lin spoke to himself: "Just because he was tricked once, Jin Mao will exterminate all three clans of Jiao Zheng Qiang!"

"Leave no chickens or dogs behind!"

"The Jiao family's Wushang branch, it was Jin Mao who forced me to do it, so I had to bear the disgusting thought of exterminating the clan."

Pan Lin said with a sad face: "You don't know, the baby was only this small, but Jin Mao didn't let it go."

In fact, when Pan Lin was killing people, he was more enthusiastic and perverted than anyone else. It was just that no one reported it because of Jin Mao's order.

These words were undoubtedly a bombshell, blowing Xu Gong's heart to pieces.

"What should I do?"

Xu Gong was so anxious that he just walked around in circles, pacing and muttering: "It's like a chicken hitting a stone. Why am I so impulsive?"

Pan Lin felt contempt in his heart but didn't say anything. It would be enough as long as he blocked Xu Gong's retreat and let the two of them fight.

After a long while, Xu Gong still couldn't come up with a good solution. He immediately became angry and said, "It's all Sheng Xian's fault!"

"If he hadn't angered the governor of Yuzhang time and again, I wouldn't have..."

Xu Gong wanted to say, "I won't offend Jinmao," but he didn't say it because that would be even more embarrassing.

However, Pan Lin's eyes widened, as if he had heard a shocking secret.

"Captain!" Pan Lin was overjoyed: "Why don't you join forces with Governor Sheng to put pressure on Jin Mao?"

"Even if you two work together, can't you defeat Jin Mao?"

Xu Gong certainly couldn't say he couldn't win, so he sighed and said, "Sheng Xian has the support of a prominent family in Wujun, so how could he possibly wade into muddy waters? Didn't you just say that he wanted to negotiate peace with the governor of Yuzhang?"

"He is a smart man, so he won't do anything stupid, unless..."

Pan Lin then asked, "Unless what?"

Xu Gong raised his eyebrows, widened his eyes, and said sternly: "Unless it is the revenge of killing my son, I will never forgive you!"

Pan Linhan's hair stood on end. These officials have really dirty hearts.

Xu Gong suddenly turned his head and looked at Pan Lin: "Didn't you say that Sheng Xian's son came to Wu County?"

Xu Gong smiled and said, "You have served me but have not done anything. If you have no merit, I cannot promote you in front of others."

"How about this, you go kill Sheng Kuang for me, and I'll ensure you live a life of wealth and glory!"

At this moment, Pan Lin really regretted that he should have been more patient at the beginning. It would have been much better than being caught up in the storm now.

Seeing Pan Lin hesitate, Xu Gong asked coldly: "Why? Don't you want to?"

"I'm willing to..."

Seeing that he couldn't escape, Pan Lin gritted his teeth and asked for a good horse, a set of fine fish-scale armor, and a long and short weapon made of hundred-fold tempered steel before going to look for Sheng Kuang.

Xu Gong didn't care about such a small thing. As for whether Pan Lin would escape or not, it didn't matter.

Xu Gong did not really send Pan Lin to do the work. He had many slaves under his command, so he arranged two groups of people to act separately, one group to keep an eye on the situation and the other to do the real work.

As for Pan Lin, he was just a scapegoat.

the other side.

Pan Lin searched all over Wu County but could not find any trace of Sheng Kuang. When he asked the guards of the county governor's mansion, he found out that Sheng Kuang had already left. At this time, Pan Lin thought about seeking refuge with Sheng Xian, but when he asked the guards, he found out that Sheng Xian did not think highly of him at all and had told him to refuse him if he came.

Pan Lin had no choice but to look for it along the way.

three days later.

Ten miles south of Wucheng County, there is an unknown hill.

Yan Hu sat astride his warhorse, looking down from the top of the hill, watching Sheng Kuang and his guards being trapped at the foot of the mountain, unable to move.

Yan Hu was originally a powerful person in Wucheng County. As there were unrests in various places in recent years, he began to organize a private army.

At the beginning, Yan Hu only wanted to defend his own property, but as his men grew in number, even exceeding a thousand, Yan Hu began to have other ideas.

He occupied Shicheng Mountain and Baihu Mountain near Wucheng County and proclaimed himself king. After his fame spread, people called him "Yan Baihu".

Especially this year, Yan Baihu hooked up with Wujun Duwei Xu Gong, and his power has developed to a new stage.

Two days ago, Yan Baihu received a letter from Xu Gong, asking him to cooperate in killing a group of people.

This was a simple matter, and Yan Baihu agreed without even thinking about it.

But when he really stopped the man, he secretly thanked God that he did not kill him.

"This is the guard of the county governor. He is not a simple person."

Yan Baihu couldn't help but complain a little. Xu Gong was too disloyal for letting him do such a bad thing.

Anyway, Yan Baihu has made up his mind to besiege the people tonight and then release them at dawn. He doesn't want to be involved in this unknown struggle.

Soon, things took a turn for the better.

In the evening, sounds of fighting suddenly came from the foot of the mountain.

Yan Baihu was startled, thinking that the other party was trying to break out and had a conflict with his men, so he quickly asked someone what was going on.

"Pan Lin became a retainer of Xu Gong and killed the prefect, Sheng Xian?"

Yan Baihu knew Pan Lin. The two had dealt with each other a few years ago, but Yan Baihu did not expect that Pan Lin would fall to this point.

"Pan Lin killed the son of the prefect, but let the guards escape?"

Although he didn't know the specific details, Yan Baihu instinctively felt that this matter was not simple, and immediately ordered: "Call back our people!"

Yan Baihu originally thought this was a simple matter, but now it seems not simple at all. He warned: "Tell the people below to keep their mouths shut. If they dare to leak any information,

Yan Baihu put his hand on his neck, and his younger brother Yan Yu understood immediately: "Don't worry, brother, leave it to me!"

Yan Baihu frowned, feeling that this matter was not that simple, so he instructed again: "When you see Pan Lin, ask him to come over and tell him that I'm treating him to a drink."

at the foot of the mountain.

Pan Lin wanted to cry but had no tears.

He was doing nothing but riding past on horseback, and then, when he saw a battle taking place here, he couldn't help but come over to take a look out of curiosity.

As a result, one of the group suddenly shouted: "Pan Lin, a general under the command of the governor of Yuzhang County, has come to take the head of Sheng Xian's son!"

Without waiting for Pan Lin to explain, the group took out their bows and crossbows and shot at the enemy, especially focusing on Sheng Kuang.

It was not until Sheng Kuang was shot like a hedgehog that the gang fled in all directions, shouting as they ran: "Go back and tell Sheng Xian that Yuzhang governor Jin Mao told him to wash his neck and wait, or he will take his dog's head!"

Afterwards, the surviving county guards looked at Pan Lin with hatred, and some of them had happened to have seen Pan Lin before.

Now, Pan Lin didn’t know whether to be happy or sad.

The good news is that Jinmao finally has a strong enemy.

The sad thing is that he seems to be homeless. Such a despicable method must have been done by Xu Gong.

Just when Pan Lin was thinking about where to live as a bandit, Yan Yu sent him an invitation, and Pan Lin accepted the invitation and went up the mountain without saying a word.

When Yan Baihu learned that Pan Lin wanted to join him, he immediately forgot whether the matter was complicated or not and directly gave Pan Lin the position of third in command.

Are you kidding? Yan Baihu had seen Pan Lin in action before. He was much stronger than his brother Yan Yu. With such a powerful man joining him, wouldn't his power skyrocket?
Pan Lin was also very happy. It was truly a pleasant surprise. Of course, he would not tell Yan Baihu the key. He just wanted to enjoy it first.
