In the middle of the night, the wind and snow subsided a lot, and the whole road was quiet inside and outside. Although the soldiers were hungry and cold, they were too tired and fell asleep.
Gu Xiaolian also fell asleep in Wang Xian's arms. Under the red firelight, Wang Xian looked at her long curled eyelashes, smooth jade face, and red lips. He felt peaceful but not at all sleepy.
nothing.
Dai Hua quietly came in and added a handful of firewood to the fire. Seeing Wang Xian looking at him with bright eyes, he nodded slightly and said, "It's almost time."
Wang Xian hugged Gu Xiaolian tightly in his arms and quietly watched the flames leaping high...
In the main hall of the Taoist temple, the old eunuch was not sleeping either. He was wearing a big cloak and sitting by the fire. Through the open door of the hall, he looked at the snow-covered prison cart, wondering what he was thinking in his heart.
Around the prison car, dozens of guards in uniforms covered in snow stood, surrounding the prison car layer by layer.
Suddenly, the old eunuch felt a slight tremor under his feet. Before he could react, he saw a flash of fire in front of his eyes. The entire Taoist temple was enveloped in an earth-shattering explosion. The shock wave that hit him immediately knocked him to the ground!
Amidst the violent explosion, flames shot up into the sky, and the entire hall trembled and turned into ruins! Bricks and rubble poured down, burying the old eunuch and others in the hall.
Almost at the same time, the courtyard was also shrouded in flames. The explosion seemed to be overwhelming, knocking the imperial guards who had frozen into popsicles to the ground. Amidst the soaring fire smoke and dust, gravel, sand, and blood foam were everywhere.
fly!
When the explosion suddenly stopped, the entire main courtyard was still shrouded in thick smoke and dust...
In the side courtyard, the eunuch in charge and others were awakened by the earth-shattering explosion. They hurriedly tried to get up, but their bodies had long been frozen. How could they stand up for a while? Everyone was in a mess for a while.
, the eunuch in charge helped Fanzi beside him to get up, stumbled out of the side courtyard, and saw the ruins of the main courtyard, ruins all over the ground, and the scene of dead and injured people...
"Ancestor!" the eunuch in charge's shrill screams resounded through the night sky! He rolled like crazy and crawled to the ruins. He tried his best to remove the bricks and rubble, and screamed to the officers and soldiers who were coming one after another: "Still...
What are you doing standing around, hurry up and save our ancestors!"
The officers and soldiers woke up from a dream and hurried over to help. After a while, they found the unconscious old eunuch Zhao Ying from the rubble...
"Ancestor! Ancestor!" the eunuch in charge yelled hurriedly, stretched out his hand tremblingly to test the old eunuch's breath, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and pinched Zhao Ying's philtrum hard.
Zhao Ying slowly woke up, looking around aimlessly, and then landed on the mess in front of him. After calming down for a while, without even bothering to check how he was doing, Zhao Ying hissed: "Wang...Xian...
…”
"Don't worry, ancestor, the man surnamed Wang is still staying in the side courtyard, and the brothers are watching!" The eunuch in charge hurriedly comforted the old eunuch.
"Where is the prison car?" the old eunuch asked again.
"Ah..." The eunuch in charge then remembered that there was another prisoner in the yard. He quickly looked back and almost fainted - he saw a large pit with a radius of two feet sinking in the yard, and the entire prison car fell down.
Got in.
"Go and see how the prisoner is doing!" the eunuch in charge screamed and pushed the eunuch from the East Factory next to him.
Several eunuchs and their fans hurried to the big pit, only to see that the prison car was stuck upside down inside, half of the car body was buried in mud and gravel...
Everyone hurriedly grabbed the part of the prison car left on the ground and pulled it up with all their might, but where could they pull it out?
"You are stupid! Jump in and see what happens to the prisoner?!" The eunuch in charge came to the pit and kicked one of his men down into the pit.
The other men jumped into the pit without waiting for him to kick. The people outside the pit handed over torches again. The people in the pit used torches to carefully check the prison car, but did not see anyone.
"Pull up the soil!" the eunuch in charge gave an order from outside the pit, and all the men hurriedly used their hands and feet to remove the earth and rocks buried in the car. After a while of tea, the entire prison car appeared, but it was still empty inside.
No one...
"No, no more..." All the eunuchs looked at the empty prison car blankly...
On the ruins with green smoke, the old eunuch Zhao Ying had his head wrapped in gauze and his left leg and right arm were splinted. He looked very miserable. But in fact, he was very lucky. When the hall collapsed, he was in the gap between the beams and pillars.
.Most of the falling heavy objects were blocked by beams and columns, and he did not suffer fatal injuries.
However, the old eunuch was obviously not happy. His face was covered with bruises and bruises, and his triangular eyes were full of hatred. His whole person was like a volcano about to erupt. Anyone who is familiar with him knows that at this time
Never get close to him, the old eunuch will kill someone casually!
But the eunuch in charge had no choice but to come over and report in a voice as loud as the buzz of mosquitoes: "Old ancestor, the prisoner is missing..."
Sure enough, the old eunuch's eyes were sharp. He stretched out his good left hand and immediately picked up the eunuch in charge. He looked at him steadily and asked, "Why are you missing?"
"The prison car has not been damaged, and the lock on the door is intact, but it is missing..." The neck of the eunuch in charge was tightened tighter and tighter, and his pale face turned red and purple, and it became increasingly difficult to speak.
"Why did she disappear?" the old eunuch asked through gritted teeth.
"I don't know..." The eunuch in charge was about to suffocate, and his consciousness began to blur.
"Go find it quickly!" the old eunuch roared, and threw the eunuch in charge several feet away with a wave of his hand.
The eunuch in charge fell on the heads of several Dongchang fans. These fans did not dare to hide and hurriedly caught their superiors with both hands. As a result, they were crushed to the ground together.
The eunuch in charge rubbed his neck as if it had been burned with a branding iron, confirming that he had saved his life. He kowtowed to the old eunuch excitedly and thanked his ancestors for not killing him. Then he got up from the ground and shouted in a hissing voice:
"If you all chase me out, the criminal must not have gone far!"
With a hula, a large number of people in the yard disappeared, and it immediately became quiet. The old eunuch sat on the collapsed beam, struggling to turn his severely concussed head, carefully recalling the scenes that had happened before, trying to figure out how he was hit.
The trick?
After sitting there for a while, the old eunuch's eyes gradually regained their brightness. He tried to stand up with support, but his splinted left leg couldn't bear the strength at all, and he almost fell to the ground. Fortunately, the eunuch next to him had expected it.
When this happened, he quickly helped the ancestor.
"Where are you going, ancestors? I will carry you there," the eunuch said diligently.
"Fart, what does that look like?" The old eunuch didn't appreciate it and snorted coldly: "Find a chair for us and carry it over."
In the side hall, Wang Xian didn't pay attention to the chaos after the explosion. All his attention was on Gu Xiaolian - just when the earth-shattering explosion sounded, Wang Xian felt very clearly and definitely that he was tightly
Holding Gu Xiaolian's hand, she suddenly squeezed it tightly!
So after the explosion, Dai Hua saw that his face was dull, and thought to himself that the sound of the explosion would have caused something wrong, so he hurriedly called out to him softly: "My lord, my lord..."
After calling several times in succession, Wang Xian suddenly came back to his senses, suddenly looked up at Dai Hua, and said with great surprise: "Xiao Lian has responded!"
After saying that, he turned back, held Gu Xiaolian's cold hands with both hands, and called out repeatedly: "Xiao Lian, Xiao Lian! Can you hear me? Hold my hand if you hear it!"
Wang Xian repeated it over and over again, all the sensations in his body concentrated on his hands, looking forward to feeling Gu Xiaolian's reaction again!
However, Wang Xian called over and over again, but what he felt was still the despairing weakness, nothing strange at all...
"Sir," Dai Hua looked on with sadness and couldn't help but whisper, "Was it your imagination just now?"
"Absolutely not!" Wang Xian shook his head decisively and said with certainty: "She really reacted just now, she must have felt the explosion!"
"Haha..." At this time, the old eunuch's sinister voice sounded: "I didn't expect that my uncle is still a passionate seed..."
Wang Xian and Dai Hua looked back and saw four eunuchs carrying a grand master's chair coming in from the door. The old eunuch was sitting on the grand master's chair, but his appearance was not impressive.
"Who is this? It's like a rice dumpling?" Wang Xian looked at the old eunuch jokingly and said, "It can't be Eunuch Zhao, who has extraordinary skills, right?"
"Huh!" Although he had experienced Wang Xian's poisonous tongue countless times, the old eunuch was still so angry that he stared at Wang Xian and said, "It's all your fault!"
"How come you, a zongzi, are so mouthy?" Wang Xian sneered and said, "May I ask what good things I have done?"
"Your people must have caused this explosion and took advantage of the chaos to kidnap the prisoners!" the old eunuch gritted his teeth.
"What a joke, I'm so closely monitored by you, why would you send someone to create an explosion?" Wang Xian said disdainfully: "Besides, have you ever seen a bastard who only saves others but not himself?"
"This..." The old eunuch was stunned for a moment. Yes, since Wang Xian took great pains to create an explosion and help the Buddha escape from prison, why didn't he escape with him? The old eunuch had no doubt that if Wang Xian took advantage of the chaos just now,
Able to kill all his own people...
When Dai Hua heard Wang Xian scolding him for being a slut, he tried hard to hold back his laughter, but the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but turn up.
The old eunuch's eyes were venomous, and he immediately saw the subtle changes in Dai Hua's expression. He stared at him coldly and said, "Why are you laughing?"
"I laughed at you for being such an idiot." Dai Hua reacted quickly and immediately taunted the old eunuch: "Do your three thousand soldiers and horses have eyes and panting? If we send people close to the Taoist temple, your people won't be able to find it.
?"
"This..." The old eunuch also knew that although there was a heavy wind and snow tonight, his three thousand soldiers and horses surrounded the entire Taoist temple. It could be said that there were people everywhere. Even if it were him, he would not be able to sneak into the Taoist temple quietly.
was discovered. "It must be the explosives you planted in advance!"
"I think you were knocked unconscious by the explosion. How did I know you would settle down in this Taoist temple?" Wang Xian smiled and said, "Doesn't it count if I can pinch you?"
