Chapter 171 Escape from Hangzhou (1)
Three days passed quickly.
It is already mid-to-late June. Although the sun is still fierce, it will become much cooler after nightfall.
At the north of Hangzhou, Chen Gang took a few thugs to sit next to the tea shop next to the city gate.
Inside and outside the Beiguanmen, people waiting to leave the city lined up in a long queue.
Nowadays, it is easy to get out of the city. All people who leave the city have to undergo strict interrogation and may even be plagued by idiots. People are very angry, but they dare not resist. Everyone knows that this situation occurs because of the fire a few days ago... If the murderer is not found, they will probably not relax.
"Who is the one who clears it?"
"It is said that he was the apprentice of the old Taoist priest who used to tell fortunes to people in the city."
"Which old Taoist priest?"
"It's the old Taoist priest who often looks at people's photos."
"I remembered... By the way, didn't the old Taoist priest say he was missing?"
"Who knows? It was said earlier that the old Taoist priest killed the master and apprentice of Lu Taichong of the Jade Emperor Temple, and then his whereabouts were unknown. But the situation seemed a bit strange. If the old Taoist priest killed someone and took his disciple away, why bother to run back?
I had a little impression of that, I was thin and tiny, very clever.”
"Shh, don't you want to live?"
The person next to him quickly interrupted the speaker's words and whispered: "Have you heard of it? Now anyone who says he knows a little Taoist priest or has a relationship with a little Taoist priest will be arrested in prison and interrogated first, and then releases the person."
“…”
Chen Gang vaguely heard the conversation, but didn't care.
After all, he is a native of Hangzhou. He can clearly understand what he can do and what he cannot do.
Some things are done too much, and I am afraid that I will not be able to survive in Hangzhou in the future.
Qingxi Pavilion can be closed, and Zhu Biao can be transferred.
But his home is in Hangzhou, how can he really be serious?
So, he turned a blind eye to some things and didn't care about them.
At this moment, a carriage came from the establishment store and slowly came to the city gate and stopped.
Chen Gang recognized at a glance that the person who drove the car was Huang Ai, so he stood up, walked out of the tea shed, and met him.
"Brother Third, is this going to leave the city?"
"So it's the eldest brother!"
When Huang Ai saw Chen Gang, she hurriedly showed a smile.
He jumped off the frame, inserted the whip into the frame, and walked forward.
"Xiao Lu's father is sick again."
"Ah? Didn't it mean that it's cured?"
"How can it be so easy to cure? It looked good before, but it suddenly broke out the night before yesterday, and the condition worsened."
When Chen Gang heard this, he frowned and walked to the carriage and lifted the curtain.
A strong smell of medicine pounced on him, making him cover his nose.
When I looked into the car, I saw Xiaolu sitting in the car, lying beside me with a middle-aged man with a pale face and coughing slightly from time to time.
"Little Deer, what's going on?"
"It turns out it's Brother Shen, and Dad's illness has worsened."
When the deer talks, she burst into tears and is touching.
Chen Gang also recognized Xiaolu, and even more so, the middle-aged man was Xiaolu's father.
He put down the curtain and turned around and asked, "San brother, where are you going?"
"I heard that there is a doctor in Jiaxing who is skilled in medicine, so I plan to send them to Jiaxing to take a look."
Jiaxing is under the jurisdiction of Xiuzhou and is located in the northeast of Hangzhou.
Chen Gang said: "Why don't you invite a doctor here?"
"I think, but where did you get so much money to hire someone?
Besides, I heard that the doctor has a weird temper and never steps out of Jiaxing County. Jiaxing is not Hangzhou, and I have a big brother to support me. If I want to treat the disease, I can only go there... By the way, why are there so many people? When will I have to wait?"
In Shen Gang's eyes, Huang Ai is his younger brother.
He and Huang Ai have known each other for many years, and it is definitely a lie to say that they have no friendship. But if you want to say how deep the friendship is, I am afraid that even Chen Gang will not believe it. However, Chen Gang is willing to help with just a little busy word, after all, this is not too difficult for him.
"Brothers, what's the line?"
Chen Gang laughed and pulled Huang Ai and said, "Let's go, I'll take you out of the city."
"Brother Shen, don't make things difficult."
"What's the problem with this? Let's go, don't talk too much."
He walked in front, while Huang Ai followed behind him with a carriage.
At the gate of the city, Chen Gang came forward and whispered to the guards guarding the city. The guard immediately looked at Huang Ai, nodded, and waved his hand to signal that Huang Ai could pass.
"Brother is really amazing. Even the people in the government have to act according to the elder brother's expression."
"Hahaha, what's this? They are all native Hangzhou people. We are familiar with these city gates, so it's very convenient."
"Thank you for your hard work, there's a bit of money here, so I'll have tea with you."
Huang Ai even took out a copper coin obediently and stuffed it to Chen Gang.
Chen Gang pretended to refuse twice, then put it away and waved his hand to say goodbye to Huang Ai.
Huang fell in love with the car, whipped the horse and drove away.
After driving for about two or three miles, he stopped the car and looked back towards Hangzhou, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
That day, Gao Yu's words shocked Huang Ai.
After he went back, he thought about it carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more dangerous he felt, so he went to Xiaolu to discuss it.
After hearing this, Xiaolu was very scared and told Laolu about this. The three of them decided to try to leave Hangzhou City.
Huang Ai went back and found Gao Yu and explained his ideas.
Gao Yu naturally encouraged him to leave Hangzhou, and at the same time handed over the account book to Huang Ai, asking him to try to send the account book to Bianliang after leaving Hangzhou.
"This thing is of great importance. If you can send it to Bianliang, you will be rich."
Huang Ai doesn’t care whether it is rich or not.
However, after Gao Yu ordered, he would not refuse...
"Little Deer, Uncle Lu, you can come out."
After Huang Ai finished speaking, the curtain of the car was lifted open and Xiaolu and his daughter walked out of the car.
The two of them were gasping for breath, and Xiaolu's face turned a little flushed because of the nervousness just now.
"Where have we been?"
"Have already left Hangzhou... Brother Jiu said, let us go out of the city and pick up someone from Baoshi Mountain, and then leave.
Let’s go to Gem Mountain to pick up people first, and then talk about the next arrangement.”
"Gem Mountain? Who are you going to pick up?"
"Brother Jiu didn't say it, just said that we were here, so there will naturally be someone coming."
Old Lu suddenly interrupted, "Third brother, Xiaolu, has that ninth brother ever said, where will we go after we leave Hangzhou?"
"It's better to go to Jiaxing first, not far from Hangzhou.
If there is any situation in Hangzhou, we will come back; if there is any situation, we can deal with it 200 miles apart. Brother Jiu is reliable in his work and will not be aimless. I think we can go to Jiaxing and observe the situation..."
"Little Deer is smart, so let's do that."
Huang Ai immediately agreed and spoke of flattery.
Seeing this, Lao Lu couldn't help laughing.
