Chapter 355: One Bad Move
"Fire, fire, fire!"
Seeing that the fire had intensified, Cheng Jinzhi pinched his nose and retreated to the corner, opened his throat and shouted out of the door in horror. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Originally, in the dead of night, the guards standing outside were bored, and none of them were naturally as energetic as during the day.
Although a few people stood there motionless with their eyes open, they had already entered a semi-dormant state of sensory degradation, so they did not notice the changes in the room in time.
Now that Cheng Jinzhi yelled at him, everyone suddenly came back to their senses, and immediately slammed open the door and rushed in.
With a choking smell of burnt nose, they were all surprised and subconsciously covered their mouths and noses.
"How can it catch fire, hostage!"
As soon as the head of the guard stepped into the room, he looked around urgently, wanting to ensure Cheng Jinzhi's safety as soon as possible.
"I don't know, Xu is wick fell to the ground and lit the yarn tent, I just dozed off, I didn't expect to wake up like this!"
At this time, Cheng Jinzhi, who was dressed as a maid, hurriedly stepped forward, and pointed to Sui'er who had fainted on the bed in horror, with a crying and frightened look.
"There, there, she's probably fainted! Oh no, the fire is going to burn her hair!"
Since these guards are usually only responsible for guarding outside the door, Cheng Jinzhi has never stepped out of this door, nor has he ever taken a photo, so they actually have no impression of her appearance.
Now seeing that she is dressed as a maid, coupled with the chaos and emergency situation around her, it is natural to regard her as a spike.
But Cheng Jinzhi knew that this was just a delaying tactic, and he had to leave immediately while there was chaos.
After all, the house fire is a big deal, and this coming and going will inevitably alarm others, if the jade pot also hears the news, her identity will soon be exposed, and it really can't be delayed for a moment.
"Hurry up and find some people to put out the fire, you guys, carry this woman to another place for me!
Hearing the order from the head of the guard, the others were soon busy everywhere.
Looking at the crowd coming and going in front of him, seeing that no one noticed him for the time being, Cheng Jinzhi quickly slipped out of the door, taking advantage of the heavy night, and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
She didn't know anything about the mansion, she couldn't tell where she was now, she just roughly knew that it should be in the backyard.
And the surroundings were pitch black, and she could only move to a quiet place step by step, so as not to bump into someone who shouldn't bump into her again.
The voices in his ears gradually faded, and seeing that the dazzling firelight gradually disappeared from view, Cheng Jinzhi leaned on the pillar by the corridor, stroked his chest and breathed a sigh of relief, and a row of fine beads of sweat had oozed from his forehead.
"At this point, the back door must have been locked, and it seems that if you want to get out of here, you have to go through the front door of the main courtyard. Alas, it would be nice if I could do light work at this time, just climb over the wall and leave, where is it still like now, like a prison escape. ā
Cheng Jinzhi muttered a few words to herself, and as soon as the words fell, she saw a row of neat black shadows slowly coming from the moon cave opposite, her heart trembled suddenly, and she hurriedly shrank up and hid around the corner of the corridor.
After a moment of silence, seeing that there was no footsteps in her ears, she poked her head out and looked cautiously, and found that it was another group of guards in charge of patrolling the night.
It's just that fortunately, he has gone in the opposite direction to himself.
From the moment Cheng Jinzhi was caught here, she was full of doubts about the mysterious mansion in front of her.
Even though she was roughly sure that the prince was looking for someone to kidnap her, but other than that, she always felt that something was wrong.
It's hard to put into words, but she's sure there's something strange about it.
Worried that she would meet the night watchman just now, Cheng Jinzhi did not take the same path she was going to take before, but walked out of this corridor and went around to a room with no lights.
There are a lot of flowers and plants planted in the courtyard in front of the house, but now they have decayed, as if they have not been inhabited for a long time, showing a depressed and deserted state.
It's just that the current situation is urgent, Cheng Jinzhi didn't have time to speculate about who else lived in this mansion, but quickly passed by the courtyard and walked forward.
As she stepped out of a small door, she vaguely realized that she had stepped into the front yard and should not be far from the main entrance.
Whether it is the magnificent Yanwang Mansion, or the mansion in front of which it looks like a rich and noble family lives, the pattern and structure of any such mansion are similar.
Cheng Jinzhi secretly thought that if he guessed correctly, what he had just stepped out of was the second gate separating the front yard and the back yard.
And sure enough, just as she looked left and right, and walked in hiding for a while, the gate of this mansion appeared in front of her.
But what gave her a headache was that there were two guards with knives standing at the door, and their eyes were still wide open, and there was no lethargy and depression.
If he just walked forward with such a swagger, wouldn't he just hit the muzzle of the gun?
"What should I do? They are two big men, and they still have knives on their bodies, if I fight hard, I will definitely not be able to beat them. It's all about this last step, but we can't fall short, we have to think of a way. ā
Cheng Jinzhi hid in the bushes and thought grimly, scratching his hair a little irritably.
Time is passing by minute by second, if I don't hurry out of here, when those people find out that Sui'er has been transferred, they will definitely look for her all over the yard.
When the time comes, she will dig a pit and bury herself, and she will definitely be able to turn it out by them.
When he was anxious, Cheng Jinzhi inadvertently caught a glimpse of the clothes he was wearing, and after three seconds of silence, an idea suddenly moved in his mind.
She struggled to suppress the rapid heartbeat in her chest, and after closing her eyes and taking a deep breath, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Then, in a panic, he rushed to the door and shouted at the two guards.
"Oh no, no, the room where the hostages are held in the backyard is on fire, and it's almost burning to the next room, you guys hurry up and find more people to help put out the fire!"
"No wonder I sounded a little noisy, it turned out to be a fire. ā
The two guards glanced at each other when they heard this, and saw that Cheng Jinzhi was dressed as a maid, and what he said was exactly what he said, so he believed it.
But just as he had just taken a step, one of the guards stopped and looked back at the unguarded gate, a look of concern on his face.
"Let's go, it's important to put out the fire, anyway, this door is locked, and no one will come in the middle of the night. ā
"What this big brother said is yes, the fire doesn't wait for anyone, don't let it burn in the front yard!"
Seeing this, Cheng Jinzhi hurriedly persuaded him, and finally successfully deceived the two of them and disappeared into the boundless night.
Seeing that the last threat had been removed, Cheng Jinzhi forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, looked at the door in front of him, and put his hands on the door lock very excitedly, and removed the door link above.
"I can finally get out of this hellish place, it's great, it's great....."
Cheng Jinzhi muttered excitedly in his mouth, stepped forward and pushed the door out with all his might, and even his breathing became a little short.
But she didn't think that she had just pushed half of the door open a gap for people to pass through, and when she raised her eyes, she suddenly stopped moving forward.
As if he had seen the most hideous and terrifying demons and monsters, his whole face became pale and stiff at this moment.
