Chapter five hundred and sixty-eight: the golden wind and jade dew meet
The submarine dived to the bottom of the river and quietly walked away.
Moreover, they did not go down the river, but went directly upstream.
At this time, they were inside the big ship they had just left.
A large amount of river water was pouring into the bottom of the boat that was damaged by Li Yuanfang.
Gudu! Gudu!
Not long after, the river water had submerged the bottom of the boat, and the boat began to sink and tilt.
"what happened?"
"There is no wind, how could the boat tilt?"
"No! The ship is still sinking!"
"It's not good! It's not good! There's water in the bottom of the boat!"
"The boat is going to capsize! The boat is going to capsize!"
At this time, Lu Yong, who was waiting on the deck, was still suspicious.
If the King of Shu really wants to come to rescue people, it is impossible that there will be no movement at all.
Why haven't you seen any trace of it until now?
Could it be that King Shu will not come tonight?
Or did you make a mistake in your judgment?
In the eyes of King Shu, Cui Shiniang is not that important at all?
Cui Shiniang is not in the heart of King Shu?
Now, Lu Yong really doesn't dare to persist anymore, the King of Shu will definitely come to save Cui Shiniang.
Because if it were him, he would definitely not come to save people.
He would never do such a thing, putting himself in danger for the sake of a woman.
I am afraid that the King of Shu will not come to save people who are left to their own devices. Could it be that he really made a mistake in his judgment?
At this moment, other people on the boat started shouting in horror.
Lu Yong was so absorbed in his thoughts just now that he didn't notice it yet, but now he has clearly noticed it.
The ship actually started to tilt.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yong couldn't help being shocked and angry!
Oh my god! What happened?
Before departure, everything was strictly inspected, so how could an accident happen?
For the first time, Lu Yong suddenly thought of King Shu!
"Quick! Go to Cui Shiniang's room and see if Shiniang is safe!"
Lu Yong was worried and walked down by himself.
Not long after, they arrived at Cui Shiniang's room, opened the door, and found that the two female guards he had arranged to protect Cui Shiniang were unconscious.
There is still a faint fragrance left in the room, but Cui Shiniang has disappeared without a trace.
At this point, Lu Yong still couldn't figure out what happened!
Lu Yong couldn't help being shocked and angry!
There are so many of them guarding here, but they haven't found any clues.
How were people rescued?
Are they ghosts?
Lu Yong's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he couldn't help but sternly ordered: "Go and search everyone! Start the search and find this person!"
"Master, it's not good, the ship is going to sink. Master, you'd better move quickly!"
Lu Yong's face was ashen, and he and a group of people on this ship moved to another ship.
Not long after, the original big ship sank.
However, this is a ferry and the water is not too deep.
Even though it sank, some of the hull was still exposed on the river.
Under Lu Yong's order, all the guards immediately mobilized and launched a rigorous search on the river.
Lu Yong also sent out a signal, and all the ambush he originally arranged here was activated.
Several iron ropes were quickly pulled up on the upper and lower banks of the river.
If a ship passes by, it will be blocked by the iron rope and there is no way to pass.
Within the river, there were also blockades put down one after another.
It's enough to make it difficult for passing ships to move.
Lu Yong deduced that the method used by the King of Shu to save people was through ships.
Although they did not find any ships, they might have taken advantage of the darkness to dock the ship far away, rescued the people, then dived onto the ship and left quietly.
And he had laid an ambush here on all sides in advance. Lu Yong did not believe that they could pass through here safely under such circumstances.
Of course, the possibility of them absconding from the shore cannot be ruled out.
However, Lu Yong had already made arrangements for this.
Just now, Lu Yong issued a pre-prepared code.
Not long after, a dozen fires suddenly started burning on both sides of the river.
The flames soared into the sky, illuminating both sides of the river bank like daylight.
Countless birds were frightened and flew away, making frightened chirping sounds, fluttering across the night sky, and disappearing into the vast darkness.
The river bank for more than ten miles and the area three to four miles deep were illuminated like daylight.
If there is someone, there is absolutely no way to hide it.
But they searched carefully and found no trace of anyone.
Apparently, they really didn't leave by land.
Leaving via land would have been much more difficult.
Next, they put the entire search center into the river.
Dozens of small boats lit up their torches and began searching along the area.
The upper and lower banks of the river have been completely blocked.
In such a short period of time, it was impossible for them to escape from the area he had sealed off.
Iron lock across the river!
It’s hard for them to fly even if they have wings!
I believe it won't take long to search them out.
As long as he catches the King of Shu, his plan will be a complete success this time!
Lu Yong fell into anxious waiting.
Time passed by minute by minute, but no reply was heard.
It was not until two hours later, when the sky began to lighten slightly, that Lu Yong received a report from the guards.
nobody!
Apart from their ships, no other ships, let alone people, were found in this area.
After hearing the news, Lu Yong was shocked and angry.
How can it be?
How can this be?
"Everyone is a loser! They are all losers! Could it be that they spread their wings and flew away? Can they disappear in such a short period of time?"
"Look for me! Go and look for me right away! If you want to see the person alive and the body after death, you must find them!"
Now, Lu Yong is no longer just angry.
At the same time, there is endless fear.
This marriage was brought about by him alone.
Now, he is even more responsible for sending Cui Shiniang to the palace.
But now Cui Shiniang has been rescued, and they don't even know who rescued her.
They have an escort team of six hundred people!
Such a big living person disappeared quietly. Who would believe this matter if told?
After the matter is exposed, will the emperor think that the Lu family and the Cui family are entertaining him?
This is a grave sin of deceiving the emperor!
Now, Lu Yong no longer even hopes to catch Cui Shiniang and the person who rescued her, even if he can see their traces!
At least, he can use it as a commission, and he will not be charged with bullying the king!
But what made Lu Yong extremely disappointed was that until daybreak, they could not find any trace.
Lu Yong's heart kept sinking.
It’s over!
If this matter cannot be resolved in time, I am afraid that both the Lu family and the Cui family will be implicated!
Now, it's not just his business!
what to do?
How to do it?
After thinking for a long time, a stern look suddenly appeared on Lu Yong's face.
In any case, this matter must not involve the Lu family and the Cui family.
If this is the case, then you must make a decision yourself.
"Someone, call Lu Fei!"
Lu Fei is the guard commander of the Lu family, and all three hundred guards of the Lu family are under Lu Fei's command.
Not long after, Lu Fei hurriedly walked in from outside.
"Sir, please find me."
Lu Yong nodded, and then said to Lu Fei: "Lu Fei, go and close the door."
What on earth is wrong with the young master? You want to close the door?
Lu Fei was confused, but he didn't dare to ask. Instead, he obediently went over and closed the door from the inside.
"Sir, the door is closed. If you need anything, just give me your orders."
Lu Yong nodded, waved to Lu Fei and said, "Come on, come and talk."
At this time, the distance between Lu Fei and Lu Yong was actually only three or four steps away.
At such a close distance, the young master actually allowed himself to take two steps forward?
What on earth is going on that makes the young master so cautious?
Lu Fei was puzzled and took two steps forward, and then asked: "Sir, I wonder what you want me to do?"
Lu Yong whispered: "I want you to take the three hundred guards of the Lu family and kill all the three hundred guards of the Cui family!"
"What?"
Lu Fei was shocked when he heard Lu Yong's words and could hardly believe his ears.
"Shut up!"
Lu Fei quickly lowered his voice and asked in a low voice with infinite shock: "Master, we and the Cui family are in the same boat. This time, we all came out together, why should we kill them all?"
Lu Yong said in a deep voice: "I don't want to do this either, but now, Cui Shiniang, who was about to be sent to the palace, has been rescued."
"The most helpless thing is that we didn't even see anyone. Under the protection of 600 people, no one was injured, and Shi Niang was lost without even seeing anyone."
"Do you think the emperor will believe this reason? When the time comes, my Lu family and Cui family will definitely be blamed. For our two families, if one of them fails, it will be a disaster!"
"So, I can only come up with this strategy! Call all the people who set up an ambush outside. No one of the three hundred Cui family guards can be spared."
"Even the guards of my Lu family cannot leave more than twenty people at most! You must do this well, otherwise, our Lu family and Cui family will surely fall into a situation that is beyond redemption."
After listening to Lu Yong's words, the expression on Lu Fei's face was extremely complicated.
But in the end, Lu Fei gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, yes, I will definitely handle this matter!"
After agreeing, Lu Fei turned around and walked out.
Not long after, Lu Fei sent out an order to summon back all the guards of the Lu family who were ambushing outside.
In this way, the number of people in the Lu family has reached more than 500 people.
Then, Lu Fei ordered all five hundred guards of the Lu family to clean up the traces left on the shore.
Taking this opportunity, he issued an order to kill the Cui family guards.
After hearing this order, the guards of the Lu family were all shocked.
Aren't they and the Cui family allies?
Why do they want to kill the Cui family guards now?
Why is this happening?
However, despite their confusion, they have become accustomed to obeying.
Next, Lu Fei once again called all the five hundred guards of the Lu family and the three hundred guards of the Cui family together.
"kill!"
Then, Lu Fei decisively issued the kill order.
The five hundred guards of the Lu family all drew out their weapons, and before the guards of the Cui family could react at all, they stabbed their long knives into their chests.
Three hundred guards of the Cui family were killed and caught off guard.
Many people died by the sword in ignorance.
The remaining people still found it difficult to react for a while.
And when they finally reacted from their dazed state, they hurriedly drew out the weapons from their waists.
There are very few of the three hundred Cui family guards left.
The remaining people were surrounded and could not escape death.
The shore was stained red with blood.
Of the five hundred Cui family guards, less than a hundred were killed or injured.
Next, Lu Fei ordered these Lu family guards to rest where they were.
He also called out twenty of his direct subordinates from among these guards.
Call these people aside and tell these twenty people your plan.
After hearing Lu Fei's plan, his twenty subordinates were all stunned and could hardly believe their ears.
However, when they heard that this order was actually given by their son Lu Yong.
And after hearing why the young master issued such an order, they finally had no choice but to accept the order.
Next, these twenty people went to their ships to conduct inspections.
It took nearly an hour to inspect all the ships.
Then, Lu Fei called all the Lu family guards to get on the boat.
The twenty subordinates Lu Fei called out in advance were alone in a boat with their young master Lu Yong.
Next, Lu Fei ordered all the ships to move forward.
At this time, the Cui family guards on those ships vaguely felt that something was wrong.
The guards of the Cui family they killed did not clean up the scene at all, and they all died on the spot.
They didn't choose to report to the official, so they just left?
Even smarter people suddenly thought that if they told the government that they encountered robbers.
Then all the Cui family guards who came with them were killed.
And they were unscathed. Will the government believe their words?
Faintly, a sense of uneasiness arose in their hearts.
"It's leaking! The boat is leaking!"
Suddenly, someone on the boat shouted.
"There's a big hole in the bottom of the boat, and it's leaking so fast!"
"The ship is sinking! Come and save us!"
"Help!"
More than a dozen ships, without exception, began to leak.
Moreover, the opening in the bottom of the boat is really too big.
From the moment they discovered the leak, water surged in. It only lasted a moment, but the water in the boat slowed down and sank rapidly.
Everyone panicked.
How is this possible? Why are there so many boats leaking collectively?
And is the water leakage so serious?
At this time, some smart people could not help but think with a chill that all this was probably their master's arrangement!
Not far away, Lu Yong, Lu Fei and others watched silently as the guards they brought out were gradually swallowed up by the river water.
"You will not die well!"
"I hate it so much!"
"When you give birth to a son, you don't have a penis!"
"You will go to eighteen levels of hell when you die!"
"Sooner or later, the Lu family will be raided and executed!"
What rang in my ears was a curse filled with resentment.
The ship had sunk, and the huge whirlpool caused by the sinking swallowed up many of the guards.
There were also some smart guards who jumped off the boat in advance and were struggling in the river.
And they saw that their son's boat was slowly approaching them.
"Help! Help!"
A person who is about to drown will never let go of his last chance to survive.
They shouted one after another and stretched out their hands desperately, imagining that their young master could rescue them on the boat.
But what awaits them is ruthless swords.
Finally, all the guards floating on the water were chopped down.
Of the more than 800 people they brought out, only the twenty-two people in front of them are left.
Lu Yong expressionlessly ordered them to dock the ship, and then sank the ship through the river.
After the twenty-one people came ashore, Lu Yong said to Lu Fei: "You twenty-one people should also chop each other a few times."
Lu Fei asked in a dry voice: "Sir, are we all going to die too?"
And Lu Yong was alert to discover that Lu Fei's voice was not only dry, but also contained resentment and ferocity.
Lu Yong felt that if he dared to say yes, I am afraid that Lu Fei would kill him first.
However, Lu Yong was not prepared to let them die.
Lu Yong couldn't help but said: "What are you thinking? More than 800 people are dead, and there are only more than 20 people left. We don't have any injuries on our bodies? Even our clothes are not torn? Do you think people won't doubt it if you tell me?
?”
"oh!"
After hearing Lu Yong's explanation, these twenty-one people suddenly realized.
Next, the twenty-one people slashed at each other, leaving four or five stab wounds on each person.
It seems that's quite the case.
Then they quickly bandaged each other's wounds, and at the same time deliberately stained their clothes red with blood, making their bodies dripping with blood. It looked like they had gone through a difficult fight.
After they finished their work, Lu Yong walked up to Lu Fei, gritted his teeth and said to Lu Fei: "Come on, give me a knife too!"
At this time, Lu Yong was in the middle of the twenty-one people.
But what Lu Yong said was just to Lu Fei alone.
However, he was horrified to hear twenty-one replies.
"Yes, sir!
brush!
Brush! Brush!
This is the young master’s request. Who doesn’t want to please the young master?
So, these twenty-one people rushed to raise their swords and chopped down without hesitation.
Fortunately, they were very measured, and the wounds were neither light nor serious, but very measured.
It’s just that twenty-one people cut it at the same time, with twenty-one wounds!
Blood immediately became like a fountain, spurting out from everywhere on his body, as if it was free of charge.
Lu Yong suddenly turned into a bloody man.
"I'm drafting the Seventh Uncle and Grandma!"
Lu Yong was made to cry by them. He vomited blood and fell backward.
These twenty-one people finally realized belatedly that they seemed to be in trouble.
He hurriedly came up to bandage Lu Yong.
Twenty-one wounds, evenly distributed from top to bottom, front to back.
After bandaging, Lu Yong was directly wrapped into a big rice dumpling.
He couldn't walk anymore.
His twenty-one men had no choice but to go to the ship, unload a plank of wood, and carry Lu Yong away.
And poor Lu Yong had injuries all over his body, both front and back. It really hurt even when he was lying down or lying down.
Every time I walk, I feel pain in my bones.
These twenty-one bastards, you all wait for me, I will deal with you sooner or later!
Lu Yong had already sentenced them to death in his heart.
Not long after, they came to the Yinghe County government office and chose to report the crime.
The magistrate of Yinghe County was shocked after receiving the report.
This, this is a shocking case!
This was the future imperial concubine, and she was robbed while blind, and more than 700 people died!
This, this case will surely shock the world!
If one of them fails, he will be in trouble!
The magistrate of Yinghe County didn't dare to be lazy and quickly took people to the scene to investigate.
Then he asked Lu Yong carefully what happened.
Lu Yong had already made plans for this.
"Shangguan, it's like this. After our escort team arrived at Yinghe, Empress Cui felt tired and ordered us to rest here for one night."
"As a result, at the fourth watch, a group of people suddenly came from the shore and killed everyone on sight. They almost killed all of us. Finally, they robbed Cui Niangniang and ran away."
The Yinghe County Magistrate couldn't help but frowned and asked: "Then why did the Cui family's guards all die on the bank, and your Cui family's guards all died in the river?"
The guards of the two families have different clothes, so they can be seen at a glance.
Lu Yong continued: "Shangguan, it's like this. The guards of my Lu family and Cui family have a division of labor. They guard on the shore, and we guard on the boat."
The Yinghe County Magistrate then asked: "How many people came to kidnap Cui Niangniang? What weapons did they use? Where did they go after they kidnapped Cui Niangniang? Why were their bodies not seen at the scene?"
Lu Yong explained: "Shangguan, they are all masked. There are about a thousand of them. They are all highly skilled in martial arts and extremely fierce! Moreover, they are well-trained and cooperate with each other tacitly."
"After kidnapping the queen, they left on horseback and headed east along the river bank. All their people, whether dead or injured, were taken away by them."
After listening to Lu Yong's words, the Yinghe County Magistrate couldn't help but frowned tightly.
In his administration, there were more than a thousand well-trained gangsters?
How can this be?
Where did these gangsters come from?
This news gave the Yinghe County Magistrate a headache.
Finally, the Yinghe County Magistrate sent people to track down the whereabouts of these ruthless bandits.
On the other hand, he quickly compiled the matter into a document and sent it to the palace on a 800-mile rush.
…
Let’s talk about Cui Shiniang, after she was rescued by Li Yuanfang and entered the submarine with him.
It was found that the space inside the submarine was very small and the height was not high enough for her to stand.
Inside the submarine, incandescent lights were on, and there was another person inside, who turned out to be the King of Shu.
While on the boat, Cui Shiniang dreamed many times that the King of Shu would come to save her.
Every time I wake up from the dream, I will shed tears.
But now, she really didn't expect that the King of Shu would not only send people to rescue her, but also come to rescue her.
Seeing King Shu, Cui Shiniang couldn't help but cover her mouth, and her tears couldn't help but roll down.
Li Min smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to pull Cui Shiniang over, and asked her to sit down next to him.
"Shi Niang, don't cry, don't cry! From now on, no one will force you to do anything you don't like. From now on, you can do whatever you like."
Hearing Li Min's words, Cui Shiniang nodded desperately, but there were more and more tears on her cheeks, and she couldn't even wipe them away.
Seeing this scene, Li Min felt very distressed and quickly tried his best to make her happy.
Li Yuanfang was embarrassed and ran to the front cockpit to drive - well, the ship was sailing. She tore off two pieces of cloth and blocked her ears.
