Standing high and seeing far, Gu Du saw a group of dark figures two streets apart. From the way they hurriedly left, he roughly judged that these were Manager Lu and others.
Chen Chang was anxious below and asked: "Is it them?"
"Have you seen Qingyi?"
Gu Du jumped from the roof to the wall, then gently fell to the ground, saying: "It should be, let's chase him quickly!"
So, Chen Chang ran wildly with Gu Du and chased him.
Now it was too late to go back and call for reinforcements. Chen Chang was a little worried whether he and Gu Du could stop Manager Lu and others. Although they were two people now, Chen Chang had no power to restrain Gu Du.
That’s pretty good.
Gu Du said: "For a while, you just need to find and confirm your wife, and leave the other things to me."
Chen Chang is very depressed. What does it mean for a man who is a dignified man to be protected by women all the time?
But this is the fact, and it cannot be changed in a short period of time.
After running for a while, Chen Chang felt that he was out of breath. Gu Du looked at him with disgust: "Thankfully you are still a man."
Chen Chang retorted: "I am naturally not as good as you as a man!"
"You..." Gu Du immediately remembered being seen by this trapper next to Yuanmiaoguan Hot Spring. She didn't believe that Chen Chang didn't know that she was a woman. This guy was just pretending to be stupid.
"Hurry up, or your wife will be married to someone else!" Gu Du grabbed Chen Chang's hand and dragged him away.
Chen Chang was grabbed by her little hand and ran forward staggeringly. He didn't know if Gu Du had taken a shortcut and passed through two alleys before reaching the front of the group.
"Stop!" Gu Du stopped in front of Master Liu, Manager Lu and others on the street.
At first, Commander Liu and Manager Lu were startled. They thought it was Yuan Zeng who was leading his men to catch up. However, when they saw that there were only two scholar-looking people in front of them, a stone hanging in their hearts fell to the ground.
When Manager Lu looked at Gu Du, he realized that it was an enemy who was extremely jealous of meeting each other. If it hadn't been for this person, he would have done it by now.
Okay, if you don't take the road to heaven, you will have no choice but to fall into hell. Now, I'm going to kill someone with a borrowed knife and let Commander Liu and this group of soldiers take your life!
He lowered his voice and said to Commander Liu: "Master Commander, this is the person who ruined my good deeds, and now he's standing in front of us again. Please make a decision early and kill them both to prevent long nights and nightmares."
p>
The idea of Liu Junzhu coincides with his. Liu Junzhu does not want others to see him and Manager Lu colluding together. There are too many secrets in this that cannot be disclosed to outsiders.
Liu Junzhu's eyes flashed fiercely, and murderous intent suddenly appeared. He waved his hand and ordered in a cold voice: "Go up!"
After receiving the order, the two soldiers stepped forward, one on the left and the other on the right, and drew their swords to kill Gu Du and Chen Chang.
Chen Chang couldn't help but take a step back. He saw a soldier carrying a quilt roll, and guessed that it was Lou Qingyi inside.
Although he is in danger now, looking at the situation, Lou Qingyi should still be alive.
Gu Du was not afraid at all. She didn't wait for the two soldiers to rush over and threw a smoke ball with a wave of her hand.
The smoke pill happened to hit one of the soldiers, and thick smoke was everywhere.
Being exposed to this smoke will not only cause hallucinations, but also make the whole body weak. Even after waking up, the ability to fight back will not be immediately restored.
Naturally, this kind of obscene thing did not belong to Gu Du, but she had taken it from someone during the scuffle with the servants and guards just now. There were only three of them in total, and they just happened to come in handy now.
p>
The two soldiers were shocked by the smoke pellet, but they did not realize that the power of the smoke pellet was not the smoke it produced, but the smoke it emitted.
It was their misfortune, as they were just downwind. The soldier who was hit by the smoke pellet immediately took a big gulp in. The poisonous smoke was so overbearing that the soldier's body immediately started to shake.
Behind them, Commander Liu and Steward Lu also suffered the disaster. Steward Lu knew this thing and how powerful the smoke was, so he quickly covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves. Unsure of what was going on, Commander Liu and the other two soldiers were smoked by the smoke.
Right.
When Manager Lu saw that the situation was not good, he shouted: "Master Liu, shoot them with crossbows quickly!"
A word reminded Liu Junzhu and the two soldiers, and immediately two crossbow arrows flew towards Gu Du and Chen Chang one after another.
Gu Du took a bad look. She was being harassed by a soldier at the front, but she couldn't take care of Chen Chang. She had to duck down to avoid the crossbow arrows. At the same time, she reached back and flicked an embroidery needle out, just in time.
It pierced the crook of Chen Chang's leg. Chen Chang was caught off guard and fell to his knees with a plop. The crossbow arrow that came from behind almost flew past his scalp, scaring him into a cold sweat.<
/p>
Gu Du did not dare to fight, so he used Kung Fu and punched the soldier in the throat. The soldier whimpered and collapsed to the ground.
Commander Liu and the two soldiers behind him had already inhaled a lot of poisonous smoke. Gu Du didn't think it was enough, so he threw another one at them, hitting Commander Liu directly in the face. Commander Liu wasted no time at all.
After taking a long puff of cigarette, he swayed twice and fell to the ground with a plop.
The same was true for the two soldiers behind him. They fell limply to the ground, and then threw Lou Qingyi, who was in the quilt, with a muffled groan.
Although their bodies are much stronger than Gu Du's, Gu Du has been eating all kinds of rare and exotic herbs since he was a child, and his body's resistance to medicine is much stronger than theirs. Therefore, he also inhaled poisonous smoke in the long alley in the house.
, but it didn’t happen so quickly.
Although Manager Lu covered his mouth and nose, he still felt dizzy.
When Gu Du saw that something big was going to happen, he clapped his hands and looked at Chen Chang with a smile: "Okay, you can save your wife now."
Chen Chang got up from the ground and limped forward, but before the thick smoke in front of him dispersed, Gu Du frowned and threw his sachet to him: "Smell it!"
After this sachet passed through the hands of this deceitful disciple, she was not prepared to take it.
"Thank you!" Chen Chang smelled the sachet, and a fresh fragrance penetrated his nostrils, which was indescribably refreshing.
Gu Du went to subdue Guanshi Lu who was lying on the ground, while Chen Chang went to rescue Lou Qingyi.
Just as Chen Chang was untying the rope, Gu Du suddenly shouted: "Be careful!" and then pushed Chen Chang violently.
Almost at the same time, Gu Du picked up a hard crossbow on the ground and shot it towards a high wall.
Chen Chang felt a strong wind blowing by his ears, and heard a pop, and a crossbow arrow was nailed into Gu Du's throat. Manager Lu almost choked and lost his life.
"Are you okay?" Gu Du asked as his eyes gradually withdrew from the high wall.
"It's okay!" Chen Chang didn't expect that the other party would even arrange a killer to kill Manager Lu and silence him.
Once Guanshi Lu died, there were no clues to find the person behind this. It was a good idea.
"Save Miss Lou quickly, what are you doing here, you idiot?" Gu Du urged.
"Yes, yes, yes..." Chen Chang, who was still in shock, hurriedly unrolled the quilt. Inside was Lou Qingyi, who had been missing for several days.
Although she was asleep and looking haggard, she didn't seem to be hurt, so Chen Chang was finally relieved.
He was about to thank Gu Du when he saw Gu Du's body softened and fell towards him...
In Guanshi Lu's house, Yuan Zeng and several other groups almost rummaged through the house before they found the entrance to the secret passage.
While Yuan Zeng was chasing people, he cursed: "Neither this guy named Lu nor that Lu Jiang is a good guy. Lu Jiang also has a secret passage hidden in his home. It's like a ** below. I didn't see him."
, otherwise I have to chop this piece of shit with my own hands."
When they arrived at the entrance of the secret passage, a signal was quickly sent out, and everyone started searching centered on the exit of the secret passage.
Soon, Wang Huan and her group seemed to have discovered Chen Chang and Lou Qingyi.
When Wang Huan saw Chen Chang for the first time, she found that he was hugging him from left to right.
However, she didn't think too much and quickly picked up the unconscious Lou Qingyi.
Over there, Chen Chang was holding Gu Du, not knowing what to say. Gu Du was also hit by a crossbow arrow. Although it was only shot in the arm, it made her unconscious. Chen Chang suspected that the crossbow arrow was poisonous.
.
When Wei Chuanzheng saw that there were Commander Yuan and three unconscious soldiers beside him, he ordered people to control them first. After all, they were from the Zhou Dynasty, and the rear Liang could not deal with them.
However, when Yuan Zeng brought his people, he took a look and said, "Okay, you were playing opposite me just now. Now it's in my hands. Wait." Then, he reported to Mingyu Wenzhi and ordered General Liu Jun to lead the four
They were tied up and taken into custody.
This encirclement and suppression operation was a complete victory. Only some people were left to continue searching in the house of Lu Mansion and Manager Lu. The rest rushed to the county government.
Not long after, County Magistrate Chu and the injured Ma Liang and others were also taken back to the county government office. The free people found medical workers to treat these injured people.
Chen Chang and Wang Huan urgently asked An Daoming why he didn't come. As a result, County Magistrate Chu told them that shortly after the first wave of men in black killers came, another killer came. This killer's target was very clear and he was killed with a crossbow.
An Daoming.
At that time, Magistrate Chu was also very scared, because Ma Liang and the other three were injured and basically had no ability to fight back. However, it was probably because it was dark and the other party could not figure out the situation, so there was no extra trouble.
Chen Chang sighed, the clue was gone again.
The person behind this is really scheming, and he can always get ahead of them and cut off the clues.
After examination by doctors, Gu Du was indeed poisoned, and the poison was not easy to cure.
Yu Wenzhi was very concerned about Gu Du's safety and strictly ordered the old medical worker to detoxify Gu Du, which made the old medical worker sweat all over his forehead.
The lights were brightly lit in the lobby. Before the yamen on duty knew what was going on, they were kicked out of bed by County Magistrate Chu and asked to quickly boil water and prepare tea. He also sent people to cook. For a while, the yamen was like a market.
No two.
County Magistrate Chu felt deeply remorseful and said in front of Yu Wenzhi: "My lord, the small county is not managed well. There are traitors like Lu Jiang who have a human face and a beast heart, and there are people like An Daoming who accept benefits.
The scum in the yamen who acted as an aide and deliberately protected the yamen almost put the prince in danger. He really deserves death!"
He spoke vaguely, and he didn't know whether it was An Daoming, Lu Jiang who deserved death, or whether he himself deserved death. However, at this time, no one had time to pursue him, the parent official of Ziling County.

"However, Xiaoxian can guarantee that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with Xiaoxian. Chen Langjun and others should be able to prove my innocence."
Yu Wen glanced at him straight and said: "You are an official of the Later Liang Dynasty. Logically speaking, foreign princes cannot control it, let alone want to control it. But now that things have come to this, I have to say a few words to you. The state has national laws, and every family has its own rules.
Every court has its own laws and regulations. As a county magistrate, there is such a treacherous and evil person under your rule. There is no need to punish you for the crime of negligence."
"Yes, yes, it's all the small county's fault!" Magistrate Chu bowed repeatedly, but he didn't dare to show off his anger in front of Yu Wenzhi.
Yu Wenzhi didn't bother to talk to him anymore, and said: "Lu Jiang was greedy and lustful, and raped civilian girls. He actually let him escape. Although he was reduced to ashes in the fire, he was not able to see him being cut into pieces.
, It’s really hard to explain the hatred in my heart." He disguised himself as a man and wanted to lure Lu Jiang out, but he didn't expect that it backfired, so he took a breath in his heart. Only Ku Meng, Gu Du, Yuan Zeng and others knew about these things.

Yu Wenzhi saw shopkeeper Qin and called him over.
Shopkeeper Qin did not expect that this young man was actually the Duke of Zhou Dynasty, so he immediately greeted him.
Yu Wen was a straightforward young man and had no airs. He asked kindly: "Shopkeeper Qin, why did you also go to the Lu Mansion?"
Shopkeeper Qin said: "The common people have long heard that Lu Jiang, a gentry in this county, was greedy and lustful, and raped women of the people. When they saw a large group of officers and soldiers rushing towards the Lu Mansion, they knew that the imperial court was going to eliminate harm for the people, so they led a group of people.
The people came to help the officers and soldiers arrest the villain!"
County Magistrate Chu took a look and saw that all the government officials and police officers in his yamen were fast asleep, but the people spontaneously organized to arrest Lu Jiang. Doesn't it mean that he was even more incompetent as a county magistrate?
Just as he was about to speak, he heard Yu Wenzhi say: "Good people and common people assist the government in arresting bandits and thieves. This is the merit of the imperial court's education and should be promoted and commended by the local government. These people are willing to assist the officials in arresting bandits. It is because of the simplicity of the people here."
, everyone is doing good deeds. Magistrate Chu, it can be seen that you are not useless!"
County Magistrate Chu thought about it and quickly answered: "Your Excellency, you are so complimentary. This is because the people are simple and honest, and it has nothing to do with the small county." Although he said it so modestly, he was still very happy in his heart.
Finally, he got the approval of the Duke, so he didn’t have to worry about the young Duke saying anything wrong about him to the Hou Liang court.
Yu Wenzhi called Yuan Zeng over again: "Can you find any correspondence between An Daoming, Lu Jiang and the house named Lu?"
Since there is a connection between the three, there must be correspondence, and it is very possible to find clues through the correspondence.
Yuan Zengdao: "We have sent people to search, but there has been no return yet."
Yu Wenzhi nodded, looked around, and found that Chen Chang was not in the lobby, so he immediately asked where he was.
The magistrate of Chu County reported: "Miss Lou escaped from danger, and Mr. Chen must be by her side."
Yu Wenzhi said: "In this case, it's better for my Lord to disturb him."
