() It was already dark, and unlike the brightly lit buildings that could be seen in the distance on the main road, the stone road was quite dark and desolate at night.
There is a three-way intersection coming out of Jiangbin Park. The side of the intersection on the river side is the ferry for passengers and cargo to the other side. Historically, Yudeng Town was one of the three major water stations in Chongshan. There used to be a lot of traffic here, and now there are ferries during the day.
, but it was very deserted at night.
At the end of the long slope in the left direction is the largest market in Yudeng Town. There is no business at night, and the vendors who work hard during the day must have some fun, so the private houses on both sides of the slope have been developed into various entertainments, including dance halls and billiards.
There is karaoke in the city, and of course there is no shortage of meat-and-meat restaurants such as hair washing and massage.
Of course, the public security in a place like this is not good, but just follow the road to the right and you will find the back entrance of the People's Hospital. As long as you go in, it should be safe.
Lu Yang was the first to rush out from the stone road. The results of this year's hard training were clearly revealed at this time. He was still very fast even after expending his energy. A dozen steps behind him was Zou Mengyuan, who was gritting his teeth and persisting. Even behind him was the panting Zou Mengyuan.
Liu Xi and Deng Tianshan could hardly walk.
Now more than ten minutes have passed. Princess Jiang Ling should be out of danger. Lu Yang was reassured. He stood and adjusted his breathing. When he looked back, he realized something was wrong.
The dozen young men chasing after them had almost caught Liu Xi and Deng Tianshan. Lu Yang had no choice but to turn around a few steps, pick up a few stones and throw them over one after another.
"Help! It's been robbed!"
At the same time, Lu Yang did not forget to shout loudly. Although there were no buildings dozens of meters away from the ferry shore to prevent floods in summer, there were many people in various entertainment venues not far away.
Of course, Lu Yang also knew that there were more young gangsters here, and there might be accomplices of Fan Yanbo and Li Liang. He just subconsciously wanted to scare the young people.
Unfortunately, it had no effect. Lu Yang's shouting obviously alerted some people, but they only came out to look at it from a distance and had no intention of coming to intervene.
There are a lot of fights among young people at this intersection at night. If these young people are offended, there is no point in using a knife.
Lu Yang's stone was fast and accurate, hitting several young people. But there were many people on the other side, and Liu Xi and Deng Tianshan, who had been exhausted, were finally grabbed by several young people, and then they were pressed to the ground for a while.
Beat him up.
"Go quickly and find someone to save us!"
Lu Yang was hesitant to challenge a dozen young people in this open terrain, but Zou Mengyuan waved loudly, and then turned around and rushed towards the young people who continued to chase.
This scene was somewhat heroic. Although Zou Mengyuan was tall and strong, and had been agile in playing football for a long time, he was surrounded by several young people and did not put up much resistance. He was quickly knocked to the ground.
Three young men began to chase him. Lu Yang had already made up his mind. He was not a master of martial arts. He could not defeat these three young men in a short time. He could not defeat them individually. He faced more than a dozen of them in this kind of terrain.
Maybe young people with knives are really dangerous.
They had no choice but to retreat first. Generally speaking, no one would die in such a fight, as evidenced by the fact that the other party did not use a knife or a deadly blow to start. However, the night was still long, and Zou Mengyuan and others would be detained and severely punished.
Lu Yang comforted himself in despair, turned around and ran to the right. Three young men were excited to chase him. However, the difference in speed and endurance was obvious. After a few minutes, they were already farther and farther away.
The back door of the People's Hospital was right in front of him, but Lu Yang was dumbfounded. The door was locked!
Lu Yang secretly miscalculated and forgot that the back door of the People's Hospital was not open at this time because of the poor public security on the old riverside road.
Annoyed in his heart, Lu Yang couldn't see any of his classmates, so he had to look for them based on his feelings.
In the future, the old riverside road will be expanded into Binjiang Highway and become a famous food street in Yudeng Town. However, at present, it is dirty and messy. There are no street lights. It makes me feel uncomfortable walking on the road at night.
Lu Yang ran as fast as he could to the end of the old road by the river, which was cut off by a small river flowing out of the river. He had no choice but to follow the dirt road beside the river to the highway above.
Next to the highway was the building where Zhou Hongnian lived temporarily, but Lu Yang saw a few female classmates at the entrance of Chongxian Middle School from a distance. His face lit up, but when he got closer, his mood dropped.
Princess Jiang Ling and Li Dongyu are not here!
"What's going on? Where is Princess Jiang Ling?"
Lu Yang rushed over and asked one of the girls who couldn't name her but had a calm face.
"Lu Yang?"
"Why are you here?"
"Where are Zou Mengyuan and the others?"
Before the girl could say anything, several other girls gathered around her, looking flustered and asking excitedly.
"There were so many gangsters that we couldn't win after we stopped them for a while, so I ran away. Zou Mengyuan and the others were caught, and we had to find someone to rescue them quickly."
Lu Yang explained simply, then brought the topic back and asked: "Where is Princess Jiang Ling? I didn't find you? What are you doing here?"
"We were there just now."
The girl with a calm face was the first to explain that it turned out that a group of them were chased by Princess Jiang Ling and Li Dongyu in a panic. They rushed to the back door of the People's Hospital but could not get in. They were all at a loss.
Although those who came early have been here for three years, we students usually don’t have much time to visit Yudeng Town. Especially due to the poor public security on the riverside, adults are strictly not allowed to come here. Naturally, we are not familiar with this area at all.
Although they knew that the gate of the People's Hospital was over there, everyone was too confused to go through the alley, so they had to follow the road along the river until they reached the gate of Chongxian Middle School. The lights here made them feel more at ease.
But the security guard at the entrance of Chongxian Middle School was very bad. Several girls wanted to borrow a phone, but they didn't open the door at all and just pretended to be asleep inside.
"The princess and Jiang Ling were very anxious. They went over there to find a phone to call the police. Li Dongyu accompanied them there."
After the calm girl finished speaking, she pointed towards the road that Lu Yang was coming from. This road was usually passed by the city bus and everyone was familiar with it.
"I'll go find them. You guys should go back to the factory and call the police."
Lu Yang calmed down a little, and turned around to find Princess Jiang Ling.
"We...we dare not..."
The calm girl grabbed Lu Yang. The direction from Chongxian Middle School to Xinjiang Family District was even darker, there were no street lights, and it was said that the security situation around Shannan Vocational School was even worse. Several girls were very panicked at this time, and of course they didn't dare.
Go back.
Lu Yang was helpless. Chongxian Middle School was closed for teaching. At this time, the surrounding shops were closed. He thought about it and had to take a few girls to the Education Committee's family building first.
The old man already knew Lu Yang and did not dare to say anything. Lu Yang hurriedly went to the top floor and knocked on the door.
"Lu Yang? What's wrong with you? What is this?"
Zhou Hongnian was taking a shower when he was startled by a hurried knock on the door. When he came out and saw the usually calm Lu Yang looking panicked, he was also startled.
"Brother Hongnian, phone number."
Lu Yang didn't have time to explain carefully, so he hurriedly went to the living room to find a phone.
Of course, the first person to contact Cao Gang about this matter was Lu Yang. He dialed the pager, and then called Lai Huiyu, Zhao Guohui and other familiar teachers from the junior school. Finally, he dialed the alarm number. Of course, he did not call home.
So as not to worry my parents.
Lu Yang thought about it and called Yan Fei and Wen Tian's offices again. Neither of them were there. He didn't mention the conflict to Liu Hong and Sister Wang. He only lightly mentioned that he met some gangsters in Jiangbin Park and asked them to find some.
If you are idle, come and take a stroll here to share the attention of these people.
"I'm going to find someone too. You guys stay here."
Zhou Hongnian listened to the girls' explanations and heard that a group of schoolchildren in the factory were beaten by gangsters from Yudeng Town and were still in their hands. This was a serious matter and they must be found quickly.
Zhou Hongnian must be safe, so Lu Yang didn't say much. At this time, Cao Gang's call hadn't come yet, and he really couldn't wait. He always felt that something big was going to happen.
Lu Yang told the calm girl to talk about the matter when someone called later, and then hurried downstairs with Zhou Hongnian.
Although it is a main road, this old road only has a few street lights on at night, and it is covered with dense shade. Although there are local residents walking around, the whole road looks very dark because the grocery stores are not open.
Lu Yang and Zhou Hongnian trotted along the road, anxiously checking around, but still found nothing.
Soon the two of them had arrived at the main entrance of the People's Hospital. It was much more lively here, with various restaurants open and it felt like there was a lot of traffic.
There was still no sign of the princess and Jiang Ling. Lu Yang was panicking and was surprised to find Li Dongyu chatting with a man at the door of a grilled fish shop.
When he got closer, Lu Yang's heart dropped. Isn't the person opposite Li Dongyu the mad dog Li Changgou?
"Let go, brother, I want to find her!"
Li Dongyu blushed and tried desperately to break open Li Changgou's iron palm.
Li Dongyu was very scared when he thought of what happened just now, but he was even more angry that he was so scared that he didn't do anything.
"Xiaoyu, be obedient!"
Li Changgou had a straight face, with helplessness in his eyes. He did not expect to encounter such a thing. It would be good to be able to save Xiaoyu.
"Li Dongyu!"
Lu Yang had already run in front of the two of them and asked breathlessly: "What...what's going on? Where are the princess and Jiang...Jiang Ling?"
"Lu...Lu Yang...wuwuwu..."
Li Dongyu was stunned and saw clearly that it was Lu Yang who was sweating profusely. He seemed to have found his savior and shouted with a sad face: "Jiang Ling has been taken away, woo woo woo..."
Lu Yang's heart sank completely, his bad premonition was tormenting in memory and reality, but Li Dongyu seemed to be frightened. At this time, he was protected behind him by Li Changgou, crying hard but couldn't ask anything.
"Li Changgou, what's going on?"
Lu Yang turned around and faced the mad dog with a sullen face, trying hard to control his desire to use violence.
"Who are you? You..."
Li Changgou didn't remember who the child was at first. He was evaluating the fighting ability of the thin bamboo pole behind the opponent. At this time, he was called by his name directly, and he had a vague impression.
Who does it seem to be?
At this time, Lu Yang's heart was filled with memories of the tragedy of the past and realistic fears of the future. He almost lost his mind completely, clenched his fists tightly and roared.
