(Two in one, emmmm... Before I knew it, it was a thousand chapters...)
"Boom! Boom!" The red fire flashed, and two consecutive loud noises were deafening. Choking smoke and dust rose up.
Liu Yan'er on the stage saw it clearly this time. She saw the man who just gave her opinions on her song lift the strange-looking thing in his hand. A ball of fire spurted out from the strange thing, and then the two took it.
Lu Tianci's men, who were armed with weapons, fell to the ground like two broken bags.
"Let's go!" Lin Jue shot Xin Wuya and Yang Zhen to death with two shots. No longer concealing his figure, he shouted in a low voice, stepped forward and grabbed Lu Tianci's other arm and rushed out of the cabin.
On the dark river, a small boat quickly rushed to the side of the building ship, with a red lantern hanging on the bow. It was the boat that came over. Lin Jue and Bai Bing grabbed Lu Tianci's arm and rushed out.
He jumped off the side of the boat and landed in the boat. The boat shook violently, but soon stabilized. The person rowing at the stern of the boat rowed hard and quickly disappeared into the darkness of the snow-filled river.
After a while, loud shouts came from the river, and more than a dozen small boats rushed to the side of the building boat from all directions. Among them were several boats guarding the courtyard of Hongyan Tower, and two were escorts following Lu Tianci. On the boat
Everyone loudly pointed in the direction in which Lu Tianci was kidnapped, and the boats swarmed in pursuit.
At the stern of the high-rise boat, Chunxiang, the rough servant girl, stared at the dark river in a daze. A maidservant beside her patted her chest and said: "It's so scary, so scary, people are dead. These people are so brave."
, she seems to be a female thief. I don’t know how she got on the ship.”
Chunxiang was startled and said hurriedly: "What are you telling me? How do I know how she got on the boat?"
The maid rolled her eyes at Chunxiang and said, "What's wrong with you? This offends you again. I won't tell you anymore, bah!"
The maid spat and left. Chunxiang turned to look at the river and thought to herself: "Lin Bing'er, it turns out you are a female thief. No wonder I don't think you are a person who does things. Female thief! Oh, you are so majestic. What are you going to do?
Just do whatever you want. Being a female thief is also very good. If I become a female thief, I will be the first to kill Zhao’s mother. Oh, what am I thinking? There are still dishes that have not been washed. I have to wash them, otherwise it will happen again.
I'm going to get scolded.
On the snow-covered Bianhe River, in the dark night, the boat paddled by Sun Dayong quickly headed east. At the bow of the boat, Lin Jue and Bai Bing had tied Lu Yanei's hands and feet and stuffed his mouth. Lu Yanei was curled up.
His body was shivering, and his small eyes stared at the two of them in fear, fearing that they would kill him.
"Young Master Yameni, don't be afraid. As long as you are obedient, we won't kill you. I'm just afraid that you don't know how to praise me, so that's hard to say. You men are the ones who lick blood with their swords in the world. If you offend us, why don't you do it?"
You can make three swords and six holes, and throw you into the Bian River to feed the bastard. Do you understand?" Lin Jue said with a hoarse throat.
"Woooooooooo!" Lu Tianci nodded hurriedly, without even the slightest thought of resistance.
"The ship behind is catching up." Bai Bing squinted and looked back through the darkness filled with wind and snow. Although the light behind was dim, the light of the lantern hanging on the mast of the chasing ship could still be seen clearly.
More than a dozen ships were approaching quickly, and they could only meet within a few hundred steps.
Lin Jue and Bai Bing were riding in a small boat. Because they needed cover to approach flexibly, the boat could not be too big or too eye-catching. The chasing boat was larger, so it was not as fast as the opponent. Under full pursuit, one person
A single oar boat obviously cannot escape.
But Lin Jue didn't panic, he had already planned an escape plan.
"Don't worry, go to the shore first and get to the pier." Lin Jue ordered in a deep voice.
Sun Dayong agreed in a deep voice and rowed the boat to the shore with all his strength. But in fact, this approach was unwise. Just a moment ago, the entourage protecting Lu Tianci had already launched a fireworks signal. The officers and soldiers patrolling the bank of the Bianhe River should have already
Alarmed, there was a noise on the shore at this moment, and it was obvious that soldiers and horses were following along the river. If they were walking along the shore, dragging a fat Lu Tianci with them, it would be almost the same as throwing themselves into a trap.
But Sun Dayong didn't ask a word why. Lin Jue said he wanted to go to the shore, so he immediately rowed to the shore. This was not only his duty as a subordinate, but also Sun Dayong's absolute trust in Lin Jue. He knew that what he was following
I don’t know how much more resourceful Mr. Lin is than me. It is impossible for Mr. Lin to make a stupid mistake in such a big matter, so there is no need to ask any more questions, just follow orders.
The boat quickly approached the river bank. There was neither a pier nor stone steps here. It faced the river bank with high rocks. The river bank, which was nearly a person's height, was impossible to climb on. The boat was forced to stop under the river bank. The boats chasing behind it
It was approaching quickly, the lantern was swaying, and the shouts of the people on the boat could almost be heard.
A short moment lasted as long as a thousand years. Lin Jue stood motionless on the bow of the ship. No one knew what he was thinking. Faced with such a situation, he seemed to have no plan to deal with it. Even Sun Dayong had a suspicion.
Suddenly, a small boat appeared like a ghost from the east bank of the river.
"Brother, is that you?" Someone on the boat shouted in a deep voice.
"Brother, it's me." Lin Jue smiled.
"Get on the boat, damn it. Just now a group of officers and soldiers were checking the shore, and I had to hide. I almost missed the important event." said the person on the boat.
The boat came closer. Lin Jue and Bai Bing carried Lu Tianci and jumped onto the boat. Sun Dayong also jumped on. Lin Jue reached out and took off a boot from Lu Tianci's foot and threw it on the snow on the shore.
In the snow, with a wave of his hand, the boat quickly sailed away, leaving only the empty boat drifting with the current.
It was Shen Tan who came to meet them. According to the plan, he rowed a boat on the shore to meet Lin Jue and others. There were officers and soldiers walking by on the shore. He had no choice but to hide under the stone wall on the shore with his people and the boat. Only then did he dare to show up.
Come out. Shen Tan's boat is equipped with double oars. After Lin Jue and others boarded the boat, Sun Dayong and Shen Tan operated the oars. They suddenly moved as fast as arrows and flew away quickly. In addition, the boat was completely dark, and it was impossible to see it in the darkness.
No trace left, only a waterline left, heading east.
On the river, the chasing boats quickly approached the river bank. At this time, a large boat with flashing lights caught up with them and stood in front of a group of small boats, forcing them to stop. Someone soon discovered that
It was a warship used by the Infantry Guard Division to patrol the river. The Infantry Guard Division and the Horse Army Division were jointly responsible for the security of the inner and outer cities except the imperial city. In addition to guarding the city gates, they were also on duty at night to guard the security of the streets, rivers and the five major lakes in the capital.
There are also military ships patrolling in case of unexpected events.
"What's going on? What happened? In the middle of the night, on a snowy day, what kind of dragon boat racing did you do? What kind of fame did you achieve?" Someone on the warship shouted loudly.
"Someone has kidnapped Prime Minister Lu's yamen son, and we are chasing him." People on the boats shouted in unison.
A tall figure stood on the bow of the warship with his arms akimbo, shouting loudly: "What? Is this okay? Who is so bold and dares to kidnap Lu Yameni? Are you brave enough to eat a bear's heart and a leopard's heart? Please tell me in detail, the general.
.”
On the small boat on which the Lu family guards were riding, Lu Tianci's personal servant Lu San frowned and shouted: "My lord, this is not the time to talk about this. The thieves are holding my yamen hostage right in front. My lord, the warships are very fast, so we should catch up quickly.
"
"Fart, you have to ask the truth first. What do you say? If you lie, won't you treat us like monkeys?" the general on the ship scolded.
"May I ask who is the gentleman on the boat?" Lu San frowned and shouted.
"I am Yuhou Ma Bin, the deputy commander of the Infantry and Guards Department. What's wrong?" the general on the warship shouted.
"I am Lu San, the manager of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I am the deputy of the horse department, Yuhou. I was kidnapped and taken away in broad daylight in my office. This is because of your negligence in the duty of the Infantry Guard. If you don't catch up immediately, you come to delay it. I will
I will definitely report this to my Prime Minister." Lu San shouted loudly.
"Fuck you, a cat and a dog dare to threaten me, have you lost your mind? I'm patrolling the city at night in such a snowy day, and everyone is freezing, but you say such sarcastic words? A dog slave of the prime minister's house
You dare to be so rude? Believe it or not, I will take it from you and beat you with thirty military sticks." Ma Bin said angrily.
Lu San was a little panicked. He was relying on the power of the prime minister, but if he really annoyed the other party at this moment and was caught and beaten half to death, it would be really not worth it. So he hurriedly said: "Master Ma, what I mean is, my family
The young master in the yamen was kidnapped by strong men just ahead. If you don't catch up in time, there will be something wrong in my yamen, and Mr. Ma will not be able to escape from it. It will be difficult for everyone to explain it. Please catch up immediately, Mr. Ma, if you say anything that offends me.
Wherever you go, you will turn around and accept your own punishment. But at this moment, pursuing others comes first."
Ma Bin rolled his eyes and spat: "This is like a human saying. Lu San, please remember this for me, you are just a dog slave in the Prime Minister's Mansion. I don't care if you fight with others and bark in front of me."
I won't tolerate you barking."
Lu San was filled with anger and could not vent his anger, so he could only grit his teeth and remain silent. Ma Bin glanced at the lights on the dark river bank and felt that the time had almost expired. So he said: "Set the boat and catch up."
The warship turned half its head and headed straight for the shore. The small boats followed closely behind, and when they were dozens of steps away, the small boat docked on the shore was already visible.
"That's the ship. Huh? Where are the people on it?" Everyone shouted in surprise.
Ma Bin stood on the bow of the ship and shouted loudly: "Listen to the thieves on the ship, immediately put down your weapons and surrender, otherwise, I will grind you into powder and chop you into meat paste."
Everyone on the boat rolled their eyes. It was clear that there was no one on the boat. It could be seen at a glance that Mr. Ma was still pretending. He was probably a fool.
"Master Ma, let me go and take a look." Lu San called.
Ma Bin nodded and said: "Okay. Go and have a look, be careful, don't fall into the trap."
Lu San thought: "I fell into your mother's plot. There is not a single ghost. The plot is nothing. If you hadn't delayed us, at least we could see where they went."
Lu San ordered the nurse to row a boat closer and confirmed that there was no one on the boat. He also carefully observed the terrain and traces on the shore, and shouted loudly: "Master Ma, there is no one on the boat. The river bank is more than half a person high, and there is no trace of the snow."
.It can be concluded that the thief did not come ashore."
Ma Bin was startled and thought to himself: "Brother, this is negligent. Why didn't you leave any traces on the snow?"
"Really? Then where did they go? Did they go to heaven?" The warship slowly came to the shore. Ma Bin stood on the bow of the ship and put up an awning with his hands to look at the situation.
"I guess they changed their boats and left. They wanted to keep this small boat to confuse us. Mr. Ma, I suggest that we chase east. Further east is the inner city gate. They can't run far." Lu San shouted.
.
"Nonsense! Why do you conclude that they just changed boats and left? Isn't this just a waste of taking off their pants and farting? I think they must have gone ashore. They can't escape in the river. They can only go ashore and rush into the houses and alleys.
Only then can we escape." Ma Bin shouted.
"Master Ma, the river bank is so high, they won't choose here if they want to go ashore. Besides, what can I say about Bai Xue Wuhen?" Lu San frowned.
"I don't know. Our people have been searching along the river. How dare they go to the dock? They can only choose this place to land. Besides, these strong men must have martial arts skills. This half-man-high river bank can't stop them.
?As for the fact that there are no traces on the snow... Yes, the snow must have fallen too much and covered up the traces. Or they deliberately did not leave any traces. This is called the imaginary and the real and the imaginary. It's a lie.
A fool like you keeps chasing me along the river, but you can't deceive me."
Ma Bin tried his best to make up reasons, and he even believed them.
Lu San was doubtful, but he couldn't refute it. The snow was falling so hard that it could cover up traces on the snow in a moment. If the other party swept a few sweeps on the footprints, the heavy snow could cover up the traces in a moment. What's the point?
Can't even see it.
At this time, a nurse suddenly pointed to an object exposed in the snow on the rocks on the shore and said: "What is that? It seems to be a boot."
Lu San quickly ordered someone to take a look at the boots and exclaimed: "These are the boots from the yamen."
Ma Bin was stunned and immediately fell to the ground in admiration. Lin Jue did not deliberately create any traces of landing, because he did not have to do so deliberately. In such a snowy day, he could not extend his footprints to the alley far away from the river bank.
He went up Mojie Street, leaving only the footprints of landing. Once the pursuers went ashore and followed the footprints to check, they would be immediately exposed, and it would be confirmed that they were the suspects. He only threw Lu Tianci's boots in the snow. This kind of
Hidden hints are often more effective. It gives people the feeling that the boots fell off in a hurry. It also seems that Lu Tianci deliberately left the boots behind to leave clues.
There are boots but no traces, which creates a contradiction. The other party will be confused. As long as they can make them hesitate, it will buy time. Lin Jue does not expect that the escape route will be unnoticed. He
I just hope I can buy a certain amount of time.
Obviously, Lu San and others are caught in this contradiction.
"These are Mr. Yanei's boots. It seems that they did come ashore. But why are there no traces? Could it be that they walked on the snow without leaving a trace? Are these strong men so skilled?" someone said doubtfully.
Ma Bin smacked his lips and said: "Well, there are two possibilities now. One is that they landed here, and the other is that they changed boats and escaped as Lu San said. In order to avoid being in vain, Lu San, you go ashore to chase. My warship is fast, so I chased them eastward along the river. We divided our forces into two groups. My brothers on the shore are also searching, and I don’t believe they can fly into the sky."
Lu San nodded and said: "What your lord said is true. Instead of making random guesses, it is better to divide the troops into two groups. The guards of the Prime Minister's Mansion will arrive soon, and we will have to catch them even if we turn the capital upside down."
Ma Bin smiled and said: "Prime Minister Lu's Yameni son has been kidnapped. Why don't we search the whole city? It's best if we can find the trace. Without further delay, we will divide our troops into two groups and pursue him quickly."
Ma Bin immediately ordered the ship to sail away from the shore and chase east. Lu San and others threw the cables and hung them on the rocks on the shore, abandoned the ship and went ashore.
…
Two miles ahead, Lin Jue's boat had already docked in the darkness. The location here was already the southwest corner of the second compartment on the left, and in front of it was the inner city Bianhe River Corner Gate. They could not go any further. Everyone got ashore. After that, Shen Tan drew out his long sword and cut several large holes in the bottom of the boat. The river water poured in, and the boat immediately took in water and sank underwater.
The area in front of us belongs to Tianshui Lane, a densely packed area of residential areas. In the distance, the sound of soldiers and horses galloping and shouting can be heard in the market, and the barking of dogs in the deep alleys is also fierce. It is obvious that the search for this area has begun. But they didn't panic. They dragged Lu Tianci, who was panting, along the shadows of the streets and passed by. They came to the intersection of Tianshui Lane 2nd Street and ducked into a house.
After entering the house, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This is Shen Tan's house outside the palace. Shen Tan has no family and lives in the palace on weekdays. This house was only bought by him after he came to the capital. He usually lives in the world. Friends or individuals who are online will only come back here if they have some personal matters.
"There is a cellar underground in the west wing, just throw this guy in." Shen Tan said in a low voice.
Lin Jue nodded, and everyone entered the west wing. Shen Tan moved the bed, lifted an iron ring under the bed, and pulled it up, revealing the hole. It was dark inside.
"Throw it down. There is a quilt underneath, so he won't freeze to death." Shen Tan said.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Lu Tianci whined with a look of fear on his face.
"Get off here." Shen Tan raised his foot and kicked him in the butt. Lu Tianci fell straight in. His body fell softly to the ground. Sure enough, there was a pile of quilts underneath. It was just that the quilts were dirty and smelly, making him want to vomit.
Lin Jue looked at Shen Tan and smiled bitterly. Shen Tan said hurriedly: "Brother, please don't misunderstand. This cellar is used by friends in the Jianghu to hide. Some of these guys have committed crimes in the capital and were hunted down. They have nowhere to hide. I So I hid them here and sent them out after the news passed."
Lin Jue was suddenly enlightened and said with a smile: "Brother is very loyal. No wonder he has a big reputation in the world, so he did this kind of thing secretly. If you don't say it, people still suspect that you are responsible for the recent cases of missing girls in our capital. Already."
Shen Tan smiled bitterly and said: "I don't have that kind of hobby. Come on, I will never be found here. Not to mention that this place has been searched several times. Once the cellar is closed, you can't see it at all. It is a two-layer wooden sandwich With the rammed earth cover, there is no hollow sound when knocked."
Shen Tan smiled and covered the hole. Lin Jue heard the words and stretched out his hand to knock. Sure enough, there was no hollow sound at all. He couldn't help but admire him. Shen Tan came from a martial arts background and had quite a few tricks up his sleeve.
After moving the bed and covering it, Lin Jue said: "Let's go home quickly and take a good nap to avoid any trouble."
Bai Bing asked worriedly: "Are we leaving like this? Will Lu Tianci die of hunger and thirst?"
Lin Jue said with a smile: "He is a pampered person. He has enough fat on his body to survive for ten days and a half. He won't die if he doesn't drink water for three days. Besides, this matter can be solved tomorrow. How can he survive for a day?
Might die?"
Bai Bing nodded, tomorrow is the last day of the three-day appointment. So in fact, Lu Tianci cannot stay for long. Unless King Huai refuses to let him go, but that possibility is almost non-existent. Lu Zhongtian only has such a son.
In fact, at this moment, Lu Zhongtian was furious in the prime minister's palace. The news of Lu Tianci's kidnapping was sent to the palace not long ago. At that time, Lu Zhongtian was in a good mood after enjoying the snow scene in the back garden because of the heavy snow today, and had some dinner.
After drinking the Deer Turtle Kidney Medicine, I felt quite powerful, so I tried hard to do it with my delicate concubine in my arms. Unfortunately, I was already old, so I tried my best to sprint, but I was defeated and fell asleep from exhaustion. This dream was in full swing.
At that time, I was suddenly awakened by the bad news and almost slipped while getting dressed.
The concubine who was serving her was still acting petty because she was not enjoying herself as much as she could. When she was serving Lu Zhongtian, she twisted left and right while putting on her shoes. Lu Zhongtian raised his foot and kicked her over. He ignored her crying and came to the front hall.
middle.
Just after listening to a few words from the person who reported the news, the lady came screaming from the back house, asking endless questions, making a fuss and crying, which annoyed Lu Zhongtian to death. Finally, he ordered someone to
After the lady was sent back to the back hall, Lu Zhongcai listened carefully to what happened.
