Chapter Eighty-Five: A False Alarm
Gillian glanced at Elia with meaningful eyes, and then urged everyone to get out of here as soon as possible. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info suddenly had a purpose, and everyone sped up. In fact, only some things had to be sent directly to the space ring, and when they left, there were more Gillian and Cassius in the original team, and they rushed to the city gate together in the light of the setting sun. They can't afford any accidents, because if it's too late, the gates will be closed......
Just a few minutes after Julia left, a swift group of city guards in military uniforms rushed over and surrounded the lonely courtyard. But...... The courtyard was empty, the desolate courtyard was still dilapidated, and the weeds in the courtyard fluttered in the wind, as if whispering goodbye to Julia and them......
Hei Lang followed the city guard officer's side with a cold face, squinted his eyes and observed this inconspicuous small courtyard, and actually let them run away, and the resentment in his heart deepened a lot. Although the courtyard was old, it was covered with battle scars, and the food on the table in the house was still warm, which showed that they had not gone far. kicked the table away: "My lord, they shouldn't have gone far yet, they should still have time to catch up." Since they are arsonists, I think they should want to get out of here as quickly as possible. ā
The city guard squinted and glanced at Hei Lang: "Originally, you said that those people in the afternoon were arsonists, but I didn't believe it very much. However, it is indeed suspicious that they left in such a hurry. This time, the chief of the guard was very angry, we can't mess up the matter, come and intercept people directly in the direction of the city gate, and send a fast horse to inform the brothers guarding the city gate that they must not let those people go. After speaking, he shook his right arm and put it behind his waist, with a look of confidence.
ā¦ā¦
"This is our carriage, good, well kept. Julia stretched out her hand and patted the horse's body with satisfaction, and then turned to the horse boy behind her and said, graciously giving two copper coins as a tip. Quickly arranged for the capable Hinbell and Link siblings to get into the carriage. Two more carriages were purchased, one of which was given to Gillian to drive alone, and the other by the three of Julia.
What kind of festival is it today? Julia didn't find any relevant records in her mind, and she more or less understood in her heart that this might be a small folk festival, and the nobles almost didn't participate, not to mention that it was normal for Julia to be in the palace and not participate in or know about it, especially in such a dangerous environment in the palace, she didn't know the life of these people......
I saw the rows of guards standing at the gate of the city divided into two teams, constantly checking the pedestrians entering and leaving the city gate. Julia was a little worried, but if you look closely, all the little beggars are no longer here, and they are probably out of the city. Thinking of this, Julia was anxious, hoping to get out of the city soon. Because after all, there are still a lot of unknown dangers outside the city, so those children shouldn't have an accident, right?
There were two caravans in front of them, and it was their turn, looking at the carriage full of goods that could barely be dragged away, listening to the "crunch~" sound of the wheels pressing against the ground, Julia regretted it. I knew that they would also transport a batch of goods to sell, and maybe they could make a profit from it. In this way, after a while, it was the turn of the Hinbell siblings, and they were quickly released, and one of the carriages below was Gilly's carriage, and when Gillion lowered his head and opened the curtain to be checked, there was a noisy sound from behind.
Julia, who was sitting in front of the carriage, quickly turned her head to check, and found that a team of city guards was checking the team leaving the city from back to front, and the annoying Hei Lang was talking and laughing with the city guard officer in official uniform with a smile on his face, and his eyes were constantly glancing at each car to observe. Seeing this, Julia knew that something was wrong even if she was stupid, she couldn't really be chasing them, right?
No, Cassius has been found now, and she has other plans, so she can't delay here too long, or she won't be able to sign up...... But these pestering guys are really a headache! And now there are too many enemies who are causing trouble, which will be very disadvantageous to her. No, we have to find a way to dodge, thinking of this, Julia quickly got into the carriage and whispered to Cassius and Jigilabi who were playing a game of guessing.
With the nod of approval from the excited Cassius and Gigirabi, Julia turned around and covered the blanket that had slipped off Mo Ye, who was sleeping soundly, on the quilt, and said in a low voice: "You guys behave well, just do what I said, if anyone behaves badly, hum ......" The eyes that glanced down from the side clearly showed ill intentions, which made Cassius and Gigirabi shiver unconsciously.
"Come out, every carriage must be inspected in order to search and arrest the first-class criminals. If it is found that it is not cooperative, it will be regarded as an accomplice. The city guards just said a few simple words, so frightened that the curtain of the car was quickly provoked by their hands: "This official, our sisters just went out of the city to do something today, and we haven't seen any evil criminals, I don't know how the official needs us to cooperate?"
"Well, who's in the car?" The city guards regretted it after asking, isn't this a fool? There was such a small place in the trunk, not to mention that people had opened the curtains to show him. On the left side of the car sat a little girl dressed as a maid, and on the right side was a small blood-red fox with two front paws grasping pastries and sending them to her mouth!
After the city guards confirmed again, they continued to want to check forward, but there was only half of the carriage left in front of Jilien, who had been investigated, and saw that Jilien lowered his head and quickly sent a gold coin that Julia gave him before to the hands of the people guarding the city gate: "It's convenient, I'm really in a hurry." A short, impatient voice came from under the beard. The guard weighed the weight in his hand, and with a subtle nod, Gillian quickly whipped up, leaving the city guards behind him dusty and cursing......
Watching the old Jianghu Jilien leave quickly, Julia was not far behind and was quickly released, until she walked a long way and saw the two carriages parked in front of her, Julia was really relieved, because she saw that those little beggars were anxiously looking back, even if she saw the carriage, she only glanced at it and stopped looking at her.
Julia parked the carriage next to the Gillian carriage: "Quick, you guys will form teams according to the number of people, get on the carriage separately, and we will get out of here as soon as possible." But everyone just looked at her with strange eyes, and then continued to look back at the gate of the city. After struggling for a while, Julia realized that her appearance and outfit had not changed back at this time. Damn Gigilabi and Cassius, stop playing, come out and help her explain......
