At this time, Shogoro and the two scoundrels were desperate. They thought that with the blessing of the Bodhisattva, they could escape from the prison and ascend to heaven. Who would have thought that their employer had found someone to ambush the three of them secretly. The escape route they had arranged before was all over.
It's for people to watch.
The employer's scheming is obvious.
Although Shogoro and the other three begged for mercy, the leading masked man remained unmoved at all. He laughed sinisterly and said: "Hmph, do you really think the master is easy to fool? Come on, drag them over and bury them!"
”
After saying that, several big men swooped over, picked up Shogoro and the three of them like dragging dogs to death, and left.
A big hole had been dug in the woods, but it wasn't big enough. Three people were bundled in and stuffed in. It felt a bit crowded. The big men kicked it with their feet and then kicked the hole in. The three people opened their mouths and shouted for help, but as soon as
I opened my mouth and took a mouthful of loess, so I had to keep silent.
The big men had a large number of people and were quick at work. Seven or eight people worked together and quickly buried the three alive. However, the soil here was all soft and floating soil. The three struggled violently and still exposed their heads.
But unfortunately, as soon as the three of them raised their heads, the other party hit them with a stick in the head, causing their heads to bleed. This was repeated several times, and the heads of the three of them were beaten like bloody gourds, and they were gasping for air.
It’s also difficult.
Although the three of them felt unwilling to do so, the other party was very tough and ruthless, and simply wanted to kill them.
Not to mention the two scoundrels, both high and low, even Shogoro was extremely regretful at this time. If he had known now, why bother in the beginning? It is so worthless to risk his life for a little money that cannot be taken away!
The soil continued to fall on their heads, and breathing became more and more difficult. The three of them finally collapsed mentally, but at this time they had no strength to struggle anymore, and the only thing waiting for them was death.
At this moment, something unexpected happened.
Shogoro and the other three, who were struggling on the verge of death, suddenly heard someone screaming above them.
Then came the bone arrows shot by migratory locusts in a dense manner, and the screams were heard again and again.
The big masked man who took the lead also screamed strangely, as if he had failed, and then he shouted: "Brothers, retreat quickly!"
The curses and wails gradually faded away. Shogoro wanted to look up to see what was going on, but the big man who fled in a panic kicked him on the top of his head, almost breaking his neck.
Before the arrow rain stopped, a sharp arrow flew through the air and hit Shogoro's right ear. If it had been deflected even half an inch, the arrow would have pierced his throat, scaring Shogoro's heart.
He was beating hard, but his whole body was almost buried in the soil. The faster his heart beat, the more difficult it became to breathe, as if the air in his lungs was about to be drained.
After a while, the dying Shogoro heard footsteps again. It seemed that someone was surrounding him, and he heard someone shouting sharply: "Dig it out!"
To the ears of Shogoro and the other three, this sound was even more pleasant than the moans of the girls in the brothel panting and flattering them.
Not long after, the three of them were dug out of the soil, with their faces covered in mud, like little devils who had just been dug out. Shogoro's eyes were covered with mud, and he plucked randomly and stretched his arms.
neck, howling miserably: "Thank you hero for saving your life, thank you hero for saving your life..."
Soon, someone washed their hair and face with water.
"...Is it you?" After barely being able to see, Zhuangwulang realized that the person standing in front of him was Chen Xiaolangjun, who had captured them.
Chen Chang squatted in front of him and said with a smile: "Why can't it be me? If I hadn't arrived in time, would the three of you have survived?"
Shogoro's head is still dizzy until now, but he has figured out the ins and outs of the matter. The employer pretended to release them from the prison and let them fly away, but in fact it was just a show. Chen Chang secretly sent someone
Tracked them and saved the lives of three of them at a critical moment.
This is basically what happened, but what Zhuang Wulang couldn't understand was that since Chen Chang knew that they were being taken out of the prison by their employer, why did he have to wait until the last moment to help?
Without waiting for him to think more, Chen Chang said: "Zhuang Wulang, do you think you have other ways to survive without me now?" He had a good grasp of Zhuang Wulang's psychology. The three of them offended the government and were manipulated by their patrons.
Worried about being hunted, I feel like a lost dog at this moment.
"This..." Shogoro's eyes rolled. This is how people are. Once they are out of trouble, their thoughts immediately change. Before, they thought that as long as they could survive, but once this condition was met, what they thought
There are so many things going on.
Chen Chang continued to exert psychological pressure: "Zhuang Wulang, don't think that the things you confessed in the lobby are all you know. I can say with certainty that you also know some information about your employer, right?"
Shogoro was shocked all over, as if he had been struck by lightning. Even though the young man opposite him was young, his ability to see into people's hearts was really not easy.
Even though he was scared out of his wits by the wolf-like government officials in the lobby, he did still have a belief that he had yet to reveal. He had always thought that this was the last thing he could rely on to save his life, but he didn't expect it to be.
Being ruthlessly abandoned by the employer.
The two scoundrels next to him also heard the clues and said to Zhuang Wulang: "Zhuang, you still dare to deceive Xiao Langjun at this time. If you don't tell me, let alone Xiao Langjun, you are our two brothers."
No one will spare you!"
The two of them have been punished in prison for the past few days, and they have long hated Shogoro. Now they see him still hesitant, fearing that he will have some bad ideas. How can this happen?
Chen Chang paid close attention to Zhuang Wulang's expression, and saw that there seemed to be hesitation on his face, and said: "Zhuang Wulang, I think you won't shed tears until you see the coffin. Since you like it here, just stay here.
”
After saying that, he waved his hand and two big men came up behind him. Without breaking up, they picked up Shogoro and threw him into the pit.
Two scoundrels came up and hurriedly stopped him. It wasn't that they didn't care about Shogoro's life or death. In fact, once this harmful guy died, the two of them would have to follow in his footsteps. Their lives were tied to Shogoro's body.
The short ruffian had a bad temper and punched Zhuang Goro hard on the cheek, roaring angrily: "Zhuang, you have repeatedly tricked our two brothers, and even when you are about to die, you want to drag us two brothers down.
We don’t have to wait until the underworld, I want to eat your flesh and drink your blood now..."
After that, he struggled and rushed forward, and hit Shogoro on the shoulder. Shogoro was shaking all over in pain. He knew very well that if no one stopped him, he would really be eaten by this guy. He
Completely collapsed, he shouted repeatedly: "Little Langjun, save my life, save my life, I will attack, I will attack..."
……
At the same time, Lu Jiang, who had been secretly paying attention to the news about the yamen, also received a secret report. The county magistrate and An Daoming hosted a banquet for Chen Langjun from Jiangling, accompanied by a beautiful singer. According to the arrangement of Manager Lu, he was going to have a banquet tonight.
Secretly move the woman in the secret room out of the city.
The driver has already prepared the car, just waiting for the news from his subordinates.
He ordered his servants to wrap Lou Qingyi in the quilt, tie it tightly, and put a cloth ball in her mouth to prevent it from happening. Lou Qingyi was quickly carried to the car.
A servant had already opened the back door. After seeing nothing strange around him, the servant turned around and waved, and the car slowly drove out of the mansion under the cover of night.
This matter was no small matter. Lu Jiang escorted the car in person. As long as the car left the city safely, he would have completed the task assigned to him by Young Master Jiangling.
But as soon as he went out, someone blocked his way. When he turned around, he saw that it was Manager Lu.
Lu Jiang hurriedly jumped out of the car, walked a few steps, and whispered: "Manager Lu, what are you..."
"Mr. Lu, I'm still not at ease, so I came over to take a look!" Under the night, Steward Lu's face turned pale, and he looked even more frightened when he got up close. "Come, let's talk to the side."
Lu Jiang did not doubt his presence and followed Manager Lu to the side.
"Master Lu, I have bribed all the soldiers guarding the city gate. You just need to follow the predetermined route. We have people to support you at Liulinpo, ten miles outside the city..."
Lu Jiang was confused. These were all things he said before, and there was nothing new about them. Why did Manager Lu bring up the old things again at this time?
When he was confused, Manager Lu said again: "The person who is assisting you this time is the young master."
Lu Jiang's eyes immediately lit up when he heard this. He had seen the young master from a distance several times when he went to Jiangling, but he had never had a detailed conversation. It was such a blessing to be able to accompany the young master up close now.
The doubts I had just now disappeared without a trace. It turned out that what Manager Lu wanted to tell me was this matter, and he thanked Manager Lu.
After returning to the car, he immediately ordered the driver to set off and drove along the street toward the city gate.
The street was silent. Lu Jiang kept rubbing his hands, unable to conceal the excitement in his heart.
This woman belongs to the young master. Escorting her outside the city this time is naturally a great achievement. There is no need for a reward, as long as his name Lu Jiang leaves an impression on the young master.
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and the driver unknowingly arrived at the city gate. He opened the corner of the door curtain and saw that the lanterns on the city wall were dim and lifeless, as if they would go out at any time. However, he could not see any soldiers walking on the city wall. Lu
Jiang knew that although this place was a city gate, people had long forgotten what war was like due to the long period of peace, so the defense was lax.
When they reached about five feet in front of the city gate, a soldier guarding the city came out of the shadow of the gate with a yawn and shouted: "Who's in front of you? Stop the car!"
At night, the city gates are closed, and no one is allowed to drive in or out unless there are special circumstances.
Lu Jiang slowly got out of the car, coughed slightly, and said: "Master guarding the city, I'm in Lujiang. I have something important to do and I have to leave the city. Please make it easy!"
The soldier called him forward. Mr. Lu walked a few steps and asked his servant to bring him a bunch of money. He handed it to the soldier and said, "You have to work hard all night, so it's not a sign of respect."
Just in case, do things conveniently, and don’t be stingy with money.
The soldier took the copper coin with a smile on his face: "Who do I think it is? It turns out to be Mr. Lu. The higher-ups have already given orders. Your car is here. Let it go immediately!"
Lu Jianggong cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Master!" The soldier waved his hand and the city gate opened.
Lu Jiang followed the car out of the gate. He did not expect that it would be so easy.
The air outside the city is a bit cold, but it's refreshing to breathe.
He suddenly remembered that when his servants came to report, they mentioned that the old bustard had a stunning woman he had never seen before. After meeting the young master, he would go and meet this woman tomorrow night.
Thinking like this, he couldn't help humming a ditty.
As the car drove out of the city, Lu Jiang saw that his master was eager and ordered the driver to hurry up. He was impatient.
At this moment, he suddenly felt dizzy. At first, he thought it was caused by riding in the car at night, but he didn't expect that he still felt the same when he opened the door curtain.
He shook his head vigorously, but his vision became increasingly blurry. He leaned up and fell into the carriage. This time, he directly hit the woman who was wrapped in the quilt, and the woman groaned.
Lu Jiang has not completely lost consciousness, and the voice just now is very familiar. It is not the woman locked in the secret room by him.
Lu Jiang was horrified. At this moment, he suddenly understood something. This coachman was the person in charge of Lu, and the woman in the car had also been transferred. No wonder the voice sounded familiar. She was simply a little girl he loved.
Concubine...
He was still thinking about this problem when suddenly the car door curtain was opened by someone from the outside. It was the driver who was driving the car.
"You..." Lu Jiang forced a word out of his mouth.
The coachman did not answer, but took out a sealed wooden bucket from under the car and began to pour it into the car. What poured out of the bucket was not water, but a thick, ink-like liquid, accompanied by a pungent smell.
.
The place he dumped was not only the cart and the old ox that pulled the cart, but also the carriages, regardless of whether they were people, animals, or cars. They poured over them all at once.
In just a moment, Lu Jiang and the woman wrapped in the quilt were the focus of care. They were sprayed all black. Lu Jiang, who vaguely guessed the truth, could only tremble.
"This is Shi Zhi." The corners of Lu Jiang's eyes almost split open, "Is this Manager Lu?"
He struggled to get up, but all the strength in his body seemed to be drained away.
The coachman threw the empty barrel into the carriage, took out the fire sickle with a grin, and started a fire with a click in his hand.
"Master Lu, Manager Lu asked me to send you on your way!"
Huozhezi immediately lit the door curtain and then the oxtail.
As soon as the door curtain caught fire, there was a roar, the dazzling flames swayed in the wind, and the fire instantly enveloped the carriage.
The old cow was also in pain, and with a low cry, it raised its hooves and started running wildly. The car turned into a train, and the originally dark wilderness around it was illuminated.
Lu Jiang, who was lying in the car, screamed miserably, but the scorching heat quickly burned his vocal cords, leaving only his two legs still kicking desperately, just like dancing a whirlwind dance.
As Lao Niu ran for the road, the fire became more and more intense. The car gradually fell apart, and a wheel fell off. Lao Niu was overturned by the car and fell to the ground in pain, struggling, but soon there was no sound, and inside the car
The bodies of the two people were also reduced to charcoal in the raging fire.
