Chapter 074: Chaos
As soon as Lu Shuo heard the sound coming from the plum forest, he let go of the plum branch he was holding in his hand, and reflexively pulled out the long sword he was wearing. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
He listened carefully for a while, and when he had judged the general direction of the voice, he walked quickly to the women's side.
But a few thoughts flashed through my heart.
I don't know why this group is fighting.
It's better if it's just an ordinary robbery or an ordinary vendetta. The murderer's goal is clear, and the Jingguo Mansion is an old lord's house, so there will always be some concerns before offending, and the two groups of people can only hide, and they will not cause trouble for themselves.
If there is any unsightly filth in it, mixed with the affairs of the court, it will not be good!
After all, those who dare to do this kind of thing are usually pawns and outlaws, and they pay attention to the rigor of doing things, and in order to avoid the revelation of things, there is nothing they can't do.
But listening to this mixed voice, the number of people participating in the battle should be very large, Lu Shuo made a bold guess in his heart, feeling that the possibility of the former was extremely small.
Moreover, he also faintly felt that the sound of the fight was related to the monk he saw at noon.
While thinking about this, Lu Shuo quickly came to Luo and the others.
Luo, Yuan, and Bai were calm, after all, they were people who had experienced strong winds and waves, but several little maids around them were frightened by this sound, cowering, and a little at a loss.
Lu Shuo didn't have the leisure to pay attention to these, he only noticed Lu Chenghai, who was five big and three thick, and when the incident just happened, he reacted quickly, guarding Luo Shi and the others with a sword, standing by at any time.
Lu Shuo nodded to him, then turned his head, stared at Luo, and said in a deep voice: "Grandmother, the sound of this sword is chaotic, and there should be many people holding the sword. And the sound of the fight is getting louder and louder, it should be getting closer and closer to us, and it is coming from the southwest, where the plum trees are sparse, and the thieves should be able to easily spot us.
Although Sun Er doesn't know which family's vendetta it is, since the target is not us, let's avoid trouble and retreat as soon as possible, so as not to suffer from the pond fish. ”
After Lu Shuo said this, he quickly looked at the number of people present, and slowly made a simple judgment of the current form in his heart.
Because they came to enjoy the plum blossoms, and most of them were female dependents, for fear of collision, most of the guards they brought with them when they came stayed outside.
Therefore, including the leader Lu Chenghai, there are only five guards in Meilin who can protect them at any time.
But the female dependents and the maids and daughters-in-law who came to the Lu Mansion to enjoy the plum added up to twenty people.
There are not enough troops and there are many people who are dragging their feet, but if you listen carefully to the movements in Merlin, there are quite a few people on both sides of the fight. Therefore, the current situation is very unfavorable to them, and if they are on the front, they are afraid that they will suffer, so it is better to take the best policy.
Lu Chenghai glanced back at Lu Shuo appreciatively, and agreed with his accurate judgment on the location and number of thieves.
"Yes, no matter what entanglements they have, it is important to save the lives of our people in the house at this moment! Besides, the grievances of this group of people are not something we can manage. ”
Roche looked in the direction of the southwest and replied categorically.
After all, he has been an old man in Beijing for most of his life, and Luo's political sensitivity is still very strong.
After speaking, she nodded to Lu Chenghai again, and said: "Now all the women and children present are powerless, whether they can go back safely and how to retreat depends on you." ”
"Don't worry, old woman, you will not be dishonored."
Lu Chenghai clasped his hands into fists and replied in a deep voice.
After saying this, he instructed the other four guards: "Let's gather five people at the end, pay attention to the rear." ”
The four guards were calmly obeyed.
Then he instructed the two sturdy mothers-in-law to carry Luo Shi back, and whispered to the frightened little maids: "Everyone must not make a sound, escort a few masters back to the temple quickly, and if there is any violation, they will be killed immediately." ”
The little maids were still cowering, and some were crying in fright, but when they heard this, they quickly shut up, not daring to say anything.
There was no delay at all, from the discovery of the abnormality in Merlin to the completion of Lu Chenghai's order, it was less than half a quarter of an hour.
The group was arranged in an orderly manner, and the retreat was very fast.
But it's too late.
Before they had all gone out of Merlin, the two men were fighting, chasing after me, to where they were.
Lu Shuo finally saw their true face of Lushan, there were as many as thirty people in black clothes and cloth clothes mixed together.
Although most of them were wounded, they were as if they were unconscious, and they only knew how to kill, kill, kill.
And the object of their robbery from each other was a tall cloth-clothed man in the middle, and the people on the cloth-clothed man's side protected him tightly in the middle, but because there were many people in black, they gradually showed a decline, and they were a little unable to resist.
Lu Shuo only glanced at it, and recognized the mole on the forehead of the cloth-clothed man, and the long hair on it was particularly eye-catching.
It was the monk who appeared in the temple.
Coupled with the fierce fight between these two groups, Lu Shuo was already very sure that there must be something very important in the body of the leuzer man, or it could be said that he himself was very worthy of grabbing.
Don't worry about it anymore, this is clearly a drama of political suppression.
It seems that the guess in his mind has indeed come true.
But this is not the time to dwell on this, escape is the point.
Lu Shuo ran to protect Yuan's side. Because Yuan is a woman, the clothes on her body are very complicated, and she can only walk in small steps, and she has always paid attention to walking slowly and pampering, where is she used to running such a long distance! As a result, it is extremely slow.
But at this time, the situation was urgent, and the two groups of people had already rushed to the front, so Lu Shuo and Zhou's mother worked together to drag Yuan and run forward.
Lu Shuo turned back from time to time, and saw that the group of men in cloth had almost been killed, while the men in black were fighting more and more fiercely, and the situation had become one-sided.
Lu Shuo's brain was buzzing, and his heart was cold.
The last thing you want to see is finally happening.
If the cloth man's side is completely destroyed, the next target of the man in black will definitely be these insiders of the Jingguo Mansion.
Kill somebody to do away with a witness! It's often the dead who don't talk nonsense.
Lu Shuo thought so, but his feet didn't stop. On the other side, one of the cloth-clothed men who was guarding the man was also killed, and the man was cut off by a knife with two calves, and he screamed miserably, like a dead dog, and was dragged away by one of the men in black.
The rest of the black-clothed people reacted and quickly chased after the people who fled from the Lu Mansion.
"Brothers, follow me to stop them, and the rest, quickly escort the ladies and sons out of Merlin!"
Lu Chenghai shouted loudly when he saw them menacing, and the other four guards also roared in response.
There is a sense of tragedy in the face of death.
With such a huge disparity in numbers, I'm afraid it's not good, Lu Shuo wanted to turn his head and join them, but he was grabbed by Yuan's hand and ordered him not to turn back.
Lu Shuo had a kinship, and before he could turn back, he felt that a shadow suddenly appeared above his head, and he was pressed like a mountain.
When he looked closely, he saw a masked man in black, holding a big knife, jumping up and slashing at the Yuan clan beside him.
