Shangguan Yuanrang looked at Tang Yin and said: "The opponent only has ten officers and soldiers. If you want to save people, it's just a matter of effort."
Ten ordinary officers and soldiers, more than 30 of them could easily kill these ten people without even making a sound.
Tang Yin put down his chopsticks, looked squarely at Shangguan Yuanrang, and asked: "We can indeed save these two people now, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. There are thousands of people like them who have been wronged. Can we all save them?"
?”
"It's okay if you can't see it. Now that you can see it..."
Tang Yin waved his hand and said: "Saving people is only a symptom, not a cure. If you want to prevent this kind of thing from happening again, you have to get rid of Zhong Tian. Now if we expose our identity just to save two people, then it is not a rescue."
Instead of harming people, it is harming more innocent people."
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Yuanrang lowered his head thoughtfully and remained silent.
Tang Yin looked at him deeply, said nothing, and continued eating.
After everyone had finished eating, Shangguan Yuanrang choked out a sentence: "What you said makes sense."
Tang Yin almost laughed out loud. Shangguan Yuanrang was a spiritual martial arts prodigy, but he was stubborn and rigid. It was easy to understand. He had to think about it for a long time before he could figure it out. Whether this kind of person is placed in modern times or in ancient times,
He doesn't have many friends. In fact, Shangguan Yuanrang doesn't have many friends. However, Tang Yin likes Shangguan Yuanrang's personality very much. The more rigid a person is, the more loyal he will be after being tamed, even until death.
Betrayal.
Two days later, Tang Yin and his party entered the boundaries of Yancheng without any danger.
Compared with Lehu County, Yancheng is relatively peaceful, but there are too many troops stationed outside the city. Flags are waving, and the company camps are endless. It is not clear where is the camp of the Feng Army and where is the camp of the Ning Army. Zhengxing is in Guan
On the road, I saw a group of people standing on the roadside in front of me from a distance. The leader was none other than Lu Fang.
There is also a big man standing next to Lu Fang. This man is in his early thirties, with a full beard and a tall and strong body. At a glance, you can tell that he is a Lianjiazi. As for the other people, most of them are dressed as servants.
There are also subordinates of Lotte and Ai Jia mixed in.
When Tang Yin and others approached Lu Fang, the latter recognized them, his face suddenly showed joy, and he hurried forward. After seeing Tang Yin, he bowed deeply and whispered: "Sir, what are you doing?
Coming?" Through the spies from the Sky Eye and the Earthly Network, he already knew the news of Tang Yin's arrival, but he felt that as the county governor, it would be too dangerous for Tang Yin to come to Yancheng in person.
Tang Yin smiled at him immediately and said: "It is precisely because of my coming that this operation can only succeed and cannot fail."
"Understood! Sir!" Lu Fang nodded, then waved to the ferocious-looking man behind him and introduced Tang Yin: "Sir, this is my friend, Yue Zijie!"
Tang Yin looked at the big man with a smile. The latter saluted first and said respectfully: "I have met Mr. Tang." As he spoke, he looked around cautiously and said: "This is not a place for conversation, sir.
You can come to my house to rest temporarily."
"good!"
The home Yue Zijie mentioned was not a home located in Yancheng, but a house located outside Yancheng. He and Lu Fang led the way, and Tang Yin and others arrived at Yue Zijie's house outside the city. It was obvious that this man's family wealth
Quite a few, when he was a bandit, he made a lot of money, and even the houses outside the city that he didn't usually live in were built in a very grand manner.
Invite Tang Yin into the main hall, and then let him sit down at the main seat. Yue Zijie sat at the side, cupped his hands to Tang Yin and said: "I have admired Mr. Tang for a long time. Brother Lu even wrote me a letter before, asking me to come forward."
I want to go seek refuge, but my family is in Yancheng and I really can’t leave!"
Lu Fang snorted angrily and said, "It's not that you can't leave, it's that you can't bear to part with your family property!"
Yue Zijie's face turned red at what he said, and he rubbed his hands and laughed.
Tang Yin could tell that he and Lu Fang had a close friendship.
He asked: "How did Brother Yue and Brother Lu know each other?"
Mentioning this, Yue Zijie's face turned redder and he said sheepishly: "You must also know what I used to do. Once when I was doing business, I encountered a tough guy. If Brother Lu hadn't happened to pass by, he saved my life.
, I’m afraid I won’t survive now.”
"So that's it." Tang Yin nodded, then changed the topic and cut to the point, asking: "Do you have a tunnel that can lead to Yancheng City?" As he spoke, he looked directly at Yue Zijie, his eyes flashing with a faint light.
Yue Zijie felt a chill in his heart when he saw him, and secretly exclaimed with such sharp eyes, this county guard is no ordinary person! He swallowed, nodded, and said: "Yes, sir, the villain dug it privately in his own home.
A tunnel leading outside the city."
"Where's the exit?"
"Right here." Yue Zijie replied truthfully.
"This?" Tang Yin was startled.
Yue Zijie explained: "A large part of the reason why the villain built his house here is that the villain's tunnel happened to be dug here and he built the house in order to hide it from others."
Tang Yin said oh and then became happy. This Yue Zijie is quite smart.
He picked up the teacup, sniffed it casually, then took a slow sip, and asked casually: "If you are willing to help me this time, aren't you afraid that Zhong Tian will find out and punish you?"
Tang Yin was of course not just asking casually, but was testing Yue Zijie.
Yue Zijie was a bandit and was very clever. How could he not hear what Tang Yin meant? He hurriedly said seriously: "Since the villain dares to agree to Brother Lu's help, he is already mentally prepared and will wait until the matter is accomplished."
After that, the villain is not planning to stay in Yancheng anymore and will go to Tianyuan County with the adults. By the way, the villain's family is already on the way to Tianyuan County and is being escorted by the adults' subordinates." What he said.
Tang Yin's subordinates are the secret agents of Tianyan and Diwang.
Hearing this, Tang Yin calmly looked at Letian and Ai Jia's subordinates. When the latter nodded, indicating that what Yue Zijie said was true, he was relieved.
Yue Zijie was very smart in doing this. He first sent his family to Tianyuan County, firstly, to avoid the trouble, and secondly, to dispel Tang Yin's wariness. He was equivalent to sending his family as hostage to Tang Yin, in order to prove that he had no evil intentions. Otherwise
If so, after he tells Tang Yin about the tunnel, the latter will probably kill him or even silence his entire family in order to avoid future trouble.
His caution was not unreasonable, and Tang Yin was indeed capable of such a thing.
After receiving the confirmation from his subordinates, Tang Yin looked up and smiled and said: "It's okay, I don't know what kind of chaos Yancheng will be in the future. Send your family to Tianyuan County to hide for a while, at least your life will be safe. If this can be successful,
I will reward you heavily, and I will not forget your contribution when I fight back to Yancheng in the future."
"Oh, thank you so much, sir!" Yue Zijie stood up quickly and bowed to the ground.
Tang Yin looked at Yue Zijie, who looked rough but was actually as considerate as silk, and nodded with a smile.
Yue Zijie's tunnel is very secretive. The exit outside the city is located under the stove in the kitchen of the house. It is hidden in this place, even if the officers and soldiers come to search, it will be difficult to find it.
Led by Yue Zijie, Tang Yin and others entered the tunnel one after another.
The tunnel was bottomy and narrow, and only one person could walk along it. It was pitch dark inside, with no light at all. Fortunately, everyone had their torches ready.
"Sir, the tunnel is wet. Watch your step and be careful not to slip." Yue Zijie walked in front, leading the way to remind Tang Yin behind him.
When he turned back to look at Tang Yin, he was startled. Due to the darkness, he couldn't see Tang Yin's facial features clearly, but then he saw his pair of green night eyes that shone strangely. If he hadn't confirmed that he was a human,
He almost suspected that he had seen a ghost.
Yue Lingling shivered, and Yue Zijie quickly turned his head back and secretly stuck out his tongue.
Halfway through the journey, the tunnel became even more humid, and water began to seep from above. People were dripping wet all over their faces and bodies, making them feel even more uncomfortable. Yue Zijie explained: "This is a moat, so there will be water seepage.
It’ll be fine if you just finish this part.”
Tang Yin didn't answer, but he was secretly surprised. Although the tunnel was dug crudely, it could cross the moat. It could be seen that it went deep into the ground. It was considered a big project. However, no one discovered such a big project. He didn't know what to do.
To say that Yue Zijie is very capable, we should say that he is lucky.
After walking in the tunnel for more than half an hour, we finally reached the exit.
When people came out of the tunnel, their eyes suddenly lit up. This was Yue Zijie's bedroom in the city's house, and the tunnel entrance was under the bed.
Yue Zijie looked at Tang Yin with a smile and said, "Sir, this is my house in the city!"
The tunnel is so wonderful. Just a moment ago, everyone was outside the city, but in the blink of an eye, they all entered the city, as if they had traveled through time and space.
Yue Zijie's family members have all left, and the servants have also dispersed. Except for his close servants, there is no one else, and the huge house seems empty.
Everyone gathered in Yue Zijie's bedroom, and Tang Yin asked: "Are the members of the Liang, Wu, and Ziyang families still imprisoned in Zhongtian Mansion now?"
"Yes, sir!" Lotte's eyeliner nodded in response.
"Do you have a map of Zhongfu?"
"Only draw the outer perimeter, because the defense is too tight, we can't blend in, and we can't clearly detect the structure inside." Ai Jia's subordinates took out the sketch from their arms and handed it to Tang Yin respectfully.
Tang Yin took it, unfolded it, and immediately shook his head. The map was too general. It only had a general structure and no details. He said thoughtfully: "Before we take action, we must master the details of Zhong Mansion.
Detailed terrain, otherwise, if you don’t even know where to go to rescue people, how can you make corresponding arrangements?!"
"Sir, let's go find out more!" the spies from Tianyan and Diwang said in unison.
I am afraid that if I continue to inquire, I may not be able to find out any important information. Tang Yin rolled his eyes, waved his hand and said, "No, I will find someone to help after dark."
