In the dark of night, a group of people climbed over the eaves and walls, walking through the streets and alleys, as quietly as civet cats.
"Silence!" A low voice came from the dark night, and the group of people seemed to have been immobilized, and they all stagnated there.
The person at the front who issued the warning lowered his body and looked around alertly.
"how?"
"There is a hidden sentry ahead."
"I'm going to kill them!" One person pulled out a dagger and was about to go over, but was stopped: "Go around and don't make any noise until you see His Highness."
"Let's go that way and get in from the west. Remember, don't be too eager to fight. As soon as you save His Highness, leave immediately!"
…
Outside the prison, on the west side.
A man wearing night clothes lurked in the dark, like a mole emerging from a cave, observing cautiously.
As planned, the sergeants guarding the gate were not very vigilant, which was normal. Although the person they were guarding was very important, the question was: who would come to rob the prisoner?
Except for himself, the King of Qi and his party have all been executed. The rebel soldiers in Qizhou have all disarmed and are waiting at home to be punished. Now both inside and outside are people brought by the Marquis from Chang'an. What can happen?
Son?
The man in black observed quietly, estimating the sergeant's position and approximate combat strength, and planning how to quickly find King Qi and rescue him once he rushed in.
Horses have been arranged in the next street and alley. Once King Qi is rescued, the horses can be used.
Suddenly, a fire broke out in the east.
The fire spread very quickly. At first it was just a little bit of red light, and the sergeant guarding the cell door didn't notice it at all. But soon the fire shot up into the night, lighting up half of the night sky. Now not only the sergeant guarding the door noticed it, but half of it.
Everyone in the city saw it, and the sergeant guarding the gate was the closest. There was a commotion immediately, and they all looked up and down, wondering if such a huge fire could spread into a large fire!
That's it now! The man in black took a long breath, took a quick step, and rushed out of his hiding place.
And the moment he rushed out, he was shocked. The fire was so huge, as bright as day, that the night clothes were useless!
Almost instantly, the officers and soldiers discovered them and rushed over with their guns raised: "Who are you, abandon your weapons and surrender!"
"Kill them!"
The arrow was on the string and had to be fired. The man in black gave the decisive order.
Although every one of the rescued dead soldiers is a good hand, the sergeants who came from the Prince's Three Guards are not weak either. They are all good hands drawn from the various garrison guards and are accustomed to military formations. The five long spears work well together and are different from top to bottom and left to right.
They stabbed from different directions with consistent movements. Although their individual martial arts were not high, such a stab was like a master spearman launching five spears at the same time. Even with three heads and six arms, it was difficult to resist.
The man in black was blocked, so he had no choice but to jump out of the way and use his body skills to try to cause confusion in the formation of the five people. After all, the five people are not the same person, and they cannot have the same intentions. Whether they are chasing or dodging, following up, confusion is inevitable
As a result, it was time for her to rush in and kill.
But at this time, three more sergeants were shot with guns drawn, and the people in black had no choice but to retreat.
Eight people besieged three people, forcing them to retreat. But in this way, they exposed a vulnerability to others. There were only a few sergeants guarding the door, and they all besieged these three people, and the rest of the people were able to escape.
Empty.
"You go rescue people and don't worry about us!"
The three people surrounded shouted that they were all dead soldiers and had no regard for life and death. It was their misfortune that they were intercepted. It would have been the same for anyone else.
When the few people who stood out heard the shouting, they rushed directly into the prison without any hesitation. At the same time, the men in black on the other side intercepted the people who came to support them, and the two sides fought together.
Several people from the clothing department also took the opportunity to sneak in. They were the main force in the rescue.
…
Li Mugang lay down to rest and saw the fire outside the window. Suddenly a carp jumped up. He looked around and shouted: "Don't be chaotic. Everyone, rush to the prison immediately to guard King Qi. He is the most important.
If King Qi makes any mistakes, I want your heads!"
Li Mu grabbed his sword, put on his clothes and rushed out the door, shouting and ordering: "Defend the enemy on the west side, and be on guard on the east side to prevent enemies from taking advantage of the situation! The others will follow me to the prison!"
After some coordination, the sergeants in Prince Qi's Mansion immediately took action.
The commotion outside the prison also woke up the two brothers who were quarreling. They listened for a while with their ears perked up. Li You laughed wildly and said: "Someone wants to rob the prisoner! He must be the one to save me!"
Li Chengqian said angrily: "You actually prepared a backup plan. Sure enough, I have not wronged you at all!" He pulled out the sword from his waist and faced the way he came. Li You looked at him, thought for a moment, and said:
"Brother Emperor, I still recognize you. We are brothers after all. You believe me, if the person who comes to save me must be a dead soldier raised by my uncle. I vaguely remember that he mentioned something, you are here,
They won't let you go. Let me out and hide in the prison next door——"
As he spoke, he sighed: "My life is over. One wrong step and one wrong step will lead me to the dark side. If we say goodbye today, I'm afraid we won't see each other again. My mother and concubine, please take care of me.
Stay focused."
Li Chengqian was furious and said: "Now that you are sensible, what have you been doing! You should say these things in front of your father! You want me to let you go, it is absolutely impossible! I, Li Chengqian, am afraid of the enemy."
, you are as timid as a mouse? You are worried about not having a fight, so you just want to satisfy my craving!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a figure flew over. Li Chengqian saw that it was the clothes of the three guards, so he dodged away without using the knife to chop him. He hadn't seen the injury clearly yet. Then, several figures rushed in, all holding weapons in their hands.
"Your Highness is there!"
"There's someone else!"
"Kill him!"
With all the talk, Li Chengqian tried his best. Li You shouted in the prison: "Don't hurt his life!"
The man in black split the wooden fence, heard Li You's instructions, and turned to look at Li Chengqian carefully. They did not recognize Li Chengqian, but when they looked carefully, they found that the man's clothes were gorgeous and he did not look like a mortal, and they guessed his identity.
Simply, he said: "Caught and taken hostage!"
Li You shouted again: "It's a burden to take a hostage, leave him here, let's leave quickly!"
The man in black didn't listen to him this time. The three of them rushed forward together, knocked Li Chengqian's weapon away, and grabbed him, dragging Li You along with him, and rushed out together.
At this time, Li Mu had led people to surround the prison, and everyone outside the prison had been cleared away. When he saw someone coming out, Li Mu raised his hand and aimed dozens of repeating crossbows at the prison door. Only his
With your hands down and the crossbows firing, these people will be shot into hedgehogs!
But his arm couldn't fall down no matter what. Because Li Chengqian was in their hands.
The man in black was ready to die, but when he saw Li Mu stop, he instantly understood that they had captured a very important person. They made the other party put a trap on them and did not dare to act rashly. These dead soldiers were usually raised alone by Yin Hongzhi.
In order to achieve absolute loyalty, they were not allowed to have contact with outsiders before performing the mission. Therefore, they had not met Li Mu. Yin Hongzhi was so anxious that he did not have time to let them recognize him. So even if Li Mu came face to face, they would not
Recognize it.
Now they knew that the hostage in their hands was unusual, and they immediately understood what they should do. One of them pulled out a dagger and pressed it to Li Chengqian's throat. He pulled it over and stood in front of him, and pushed forward step by step, shouting: "Prepare ten fast horses, five
God's food is dry, no tricks are allowed! Otherwise, I will wipe the neck of this kid in my hand!"
Li You didn't want to ruin Li Chengqian's life, so he shouted: "Let him go, he is of no use!"
Li Mu looked at Li You in surprise. He really didn't expect that at this time, this kid would still have some conscience. Li Chengqian frowned and said, "Don't worry about me, shoot the arrow! Kill all these rebels!"
"shut up!"
Li Mu scolded angrily and pushed back Li Chengqian's words: "You idiot, can you not cause trouble for me? If His Majesty finds out, he should blame me again! I told you, Li You rebelled and was treasonous.
, there’s nothing good to see, you have to listen! See it, it’s better to see it?!”
Li Chengqian and Li You were both stunned, with questions in their heads. Li Chengqian pointed at Li Mu and then at himself. Just as he was about to speak, Li Mu pushed back and said, "What else can you say? What else can you say? Li Tai,
Although you are the King of Wei, you cannot be so unruly!"
Only now did the man in black realize something. The man he was holding was Li Tai. Li Tai and the others had heard that he was the second son of the current emperor. Isn't this man who calls himself this prince Li Mu?
That's him!
The man in black smiled ferociously and said: "Master Hou, if you don't want your King Wei to die, then do as we say! Otherwise -" The man in black brought the tip of the knife closer and was about to break Li Chengqian's skin. Li Mu said quickly:
"Okay, I can promise you the conditions, don't harm King Wei's life! Come and prepare for them!"
Seeing that Li Mu agreed so readily, the man in black rolled his eyes and made another request: "Master Hou, it's not that I don't trust you. Before leaving the city, everything has changes. If I hurt your highness, I will die even if I don't care about my life."
He's dead, but I'm afraid it won't be easy for the Marquis to explain. I've heard that the Marquis is very loyal, do you dare to be a hostage yourself? Don't worry, the Marquis, we people are also loyal. As long as you leave the city, you will be released immediately.
!”
"Why don't you dare!" Li Mu got off his horse and said, "Let my brother go!"
The man in black shouted: "Master Hou, you might as well take a few steps forward so that we can make an exchange!"
"Go forward!" Li Mu took a few more steps forward. The man in black grabbed Li Chengqian and also took a few steps forward. Suddenly, the man in black took a lunge and grabbed Li Mu without letting go.
, and suddenly there were two hostages.
Li Mu had expected this and was not surprised. He was caught deliberately because he wanted to get closer to Li Chengqian and ensure his safety. As for how to escape, we will figure out a way later. As long as people are alive, there will be a turn for the better, but if Li Chengqian dies
No matter what the reason is, he can't bear it.
"Back on your word, you treacherous villain!"
"Whatever you say, Lord Marquis!" The man in black approached Li Mu with his dagger and shouted to the sergeants: "Get out of the way!"
The sergeants were intimidated and retreated step by step.
According to the request of the men in black, the horses and dry food were ready. The men in black first let Li Mu get on the horse, and then each of them tied up one by one and put Li Mu and Li Chengqian on the horse! At this time, Mrs. Lu arrived and saw
Seeing the scene in front of him, his eyes were about to burst, but Li Mu was in the hands of others, and he was so anxious that he couldn't do anything.
"Get out of the way!" The man in black pressed toward Li Mu's throat and shouted to the people surrounding him. The crowd had no choice but to get out of the way and let them ride out of the city.
A group of people followed closely, all the way east. At dawn, they pursued to a seaside, which was a natural small bay discovered by fishermen and used to dock fishing boats.
Several men in black took Li You, Li Chengqian, and Li Mu to the fishing boat and were about to cut the rope. At this moment, a speed boat came diagonally. On top of the speed boat, stood a man with a red beard like a Qiu.
The big man, Li Mu, Li Chengqian, and Li You were instantly attracted to the attention. No need to introduce, this man must be a bearded man!
"Let's go!" Of course, the men in black had also heard about the power of the bearded men. They didn't dare to gamble, so they immediately cut off the reins with their swords and rowed hard.
The bearded man stepped hard on the bow of the boat, and he jumped into the air like a wild goose. He jumped more than ten feet, touched the water with his toes once, and jumped another three feet. His wingspan was as long as that of an ape, and he grabbed the man standing on the bow of the boat.
Li Chengqian came at him with two knives. The bearded man waved his sleeves, and the two knives were separated by him. Then his strength was exhausted, and the beard man grabbed Li Chengqian and fell from the boat.
The side of the fishing boat was also torn to pieces. The two fell into the water. Li Mu stood next to the side of the boat and shouted: "Hey, Big Beard, do it again and drag me down too!"
The bearded man emerged from the water. He was not a god after all. He had exhausted all his inner breath and could not use any force to draw it out. It was impossible to fly again. Moreover, he was holding on to Li Chengqian who had a belly full of water.
There was nothing I could do. I could only watch the fishing boats heading towards the center of the sea.
The men in black on the boat did not give Li Mu a chance and escorted him into the cabin. All the manpower was freed up and they went to row the boat. The speed of the fishing boat increased a lot. On the shore, the men of the Qiu Bearded Guest rowed over and followed him.
If you can't speed up anymore, you can only stay behind, and you can't close the distance.
At this time, Mrs. Lu also chased her by boat. The bearded passenger came to Mrs. Lu's boat by speedboat. Seeing Mrs. Lu's face full of anger, she embarrassedly defended herself and said: "I didn't recognize which one was your son, so I grabbed one.
No, I didn’t expect that I pulled the wrong one——”
"Big Beard!" Mrs. Lu gritted her teeth and said: "When my son was one year old, you killed him once, and today you harmed him again. Do you have grudges against my son or me? I think you just...
If you say it was intentional, I will fight you!"
"Master, junior sister!"
Faced with Mrs. Lu's kicks and beatings, the bearded man could only dodge, and the charm of the martial arts hero was gone: "I, could I have done it on purpose? It's not like you don't know, I, I'm afraid of you! What you ordered me to do
, I always risk my life to do it, how dare I be vague at all."
"You fart! Who is your junior sister, who did you marry me with?"
"Hey, I farted!" The bearded man didn't dare to bite his tongue, but he still muttered in a low voice: "Your master and my master were both under the same master, so you and I can be considered brothers, uncles, uncles, and brothers!"
You heard it! The world-famous charlatan, the bearded man, turned out to be a stammer!
