Chapter 816: Fierce Battle
Unexpectedly, these defense troops actually broke through desperately, and the two guards of the Ming Sect changed color, and almost at the same time, the long sword at the waist "choked" out of the sheath, and the shining sword blade was indescribably infiltrating under the light of the fire.
The success of the leader was not afraid at all, but ordered in a deep voice: "Listen to the order, continue to rush forward, if there is resistance, don't worry about killing!" ”
Seeing this, the two guards of the Ming Sect suddenly hesitated.
Although these defense troops are not the imperial army, they are also responsible for extinguishing the fire on behalf of the imperial court, and if they do it at this moment, it will definitely cause great waves, and even provoke the government, and then it will be worth the loss to expose their whereabouts.
Without the order of the hall master, they really didn't dare to do it like this.
Besides, people went upstairs to put out the fire, so I believe they didn't break in on purpose, right?
With such hesitation, Cheng Shifei and the others had already rushed to the staircase, and in three or two strokes, they captured the Mingjiao demon guarding it, and then rushed into the corridor together.
In the room, Yi Zuo was observing the movement downstairs in front of the window lattice, and suddenly heard the footsteps in the corridor, and couldn't help but change color, just turned around, and happened to see the master of the hall walking out, and hurriedly asked in a deep voice: "What happened outside?" ”
The hall master's face was full of helplessness, and he said to Yi Zuo's envoy: "Zuo envoy, the brother who was guarding the staircase just now was careless and let the defense army break in. ”
"What?" Yi Zuo's envoy changed color and said angrily, "Didn't the envoy repeatedly explain to you that he would strictly guard and not let anyone go upstairs?" ”
The hall master said with a wry smile: "Just now, we have refused to allow the defense army to go upstairs, but they are eager to fight the fire and desperate to break in, and the brothers are worried that this will conflict with the government and cause unnecessary trouble, so they can only let them in." ”
Yi Zuo was stunned, but sighed helplessly.
Indeed, it is natural for the defense army to go upstairs to put out the fire, and if he stops it, he is afraid that it will arouse suspicion, so he said solemnly: "Since this is the case, then order the brothers to all go downstairs, by the way, people must be optimistic about Lu Ruoxuan, you know?" ”
The hall master nodded and said, "Yes, the subordinates immediately went to take charge of the custody in person, and the left envoy reassured." ”
However, before the hall master could walk in front of Lu Ruoxuan's door, the entire fifth floor had been thrown into chaos by the defense army that had suddenly entered.
After these people came up, they shouted and kicked the door into the house, which made the demons of the Ming Sect shocked and angry, and they were helpless.
Fortunately, the hall master gave the order to go downstairs in time, and the Ming Sect disciples went downstairs in a noisy.
When he finally had some free time, the hall master rushed to the house where Lu Ruoxuan lived, but saw that the maid who had been ordered to guard Lu Ruoxuan just now was in a hurry, but Lu Ruoxuan's figure was nowhere to be seen.
The hall master was startled, and hurriedly asked, "Where did Lu Ruoxuan go?" ”
The maid's face was already white, and she replied in a trembling voice: "Hall Master, there was a lot of chaos just now, and the subordinates disappeared Lu Ruoxuan's shadow without paying attention, and they may have gone downstairs with those rescue defense troops!" ”
Hearing this, the hall master was stunned, and then said angrily: "Bastard, didn't you take a good look at her?" Why are they gone? ”
The maid said aggrievedly: "Just now, those defense troops rushed in like wolves, but the slaves and maids wanted to stop but there was no way. ”
Wang Tang said angrily: "Okay, it's useless to say these things now, quickly go downstairs and find Lu Ruoxuan back, if you can't find it, you just ask!" ”
At this time, on the third floor of the inn that was on fire, Lu Ruoxuan had been brought to a room by Cheng Shifei, and the latter said with a chuckle: "Miss Lu, Master Cui is waiting for you inside." ”
"Master Cui?!" Lu Ruoxuan stared at Damei and looked at the incident, but she didn't reflect it for a while.
Cheng Fei said solemnly: "Miss Lu doesn't know, this fire is Master Cui's clever plan, and the purpose is to see you, girl." ”
Lu Ruoxuan then understood, and said excitedly: "It turns out that this hero is actually Master Cui's person, thank you." Just about to enter the door, he remembered something again, and Chi asked, "But will this fire ......?"
Cheng Shifei knew what she wanted to ask, shook his hand and smiled: "Don't worry, girl, although the fire broke out on the third floor, the fire can be controlled, and it can't burn here, but Mingjiao can't hide it for long, and I ask the girl to talk quickly." ”
Lu Ruoxuan nodded, and hurriedly pushed open the door and walked in.
There was no light in the room, and it seemed to be flickering and dimming under the light of the torches downstairs, but the vision was clear.
It can be seen that Cui Wenqing is sitting at the table in front of the window sipping tea, his leisurely state is in stark contrast to the busy state inside and outside the building.
And there was still a person standing behind him, it was the stunning female guard Ning Zhen.
Seeing Lu Ruoxuan, Cui Wenqing put down the teacup and beckoned: "Miss Wu is here, please sit down!" ”
Lu Ruoxuan was stunned, hurriedly stepped forward and sat down, and when she saw Cui Wenqing looking at her, her eyes were full of inquiry, and she couldn't help asking, "Don't you understand the Lu character I wrote to you last time?" ”
Cui Wenqing said with a smile: "Although the hint given by the girl is confusing, but fortunately, I still remember the word Lu in the next trip, so it is not difficult to guess, and I don't know if I should call you Miss Wu or Miss Lu now?" ”
Hearing this, Lu Ruoxuan knew that he had understood everything, and suddenly showed excitement, and said: "Wu Rouxuan is just a helpless pseudonym for the little girl, since it is Miss Lu, Master Cui, thank you for coming to save me." ”
Cui Wenqing shook his hand and smiled: "This move is not to save you, but to find out the truth of the matter, let's not say hello without further ado, I will ask you a few questions, and please answer me truthfully." ”
"Okay, my lord, excuse me!" Lu Ruoxuan hurriedly showed her positive color.
"The first question, does the Jiangdong Lu clan have a long-term collusion with the Ming Sect?!" The first question Cui Wenqing asked was aggressive.
Lu Ruoxuan shook his head and said: "Master Cui, when I was in Jiangdong, the Lu family had no contact with the Ming Sect, but when I moved to the four states of the North, the Ming Sect Yi Zuo Envoy treated my younger brother Lu Lingzhi with madness, which was familiar, at first I didn't know the depths, and I thought that Yi Zuo was a good person, so he took advantage of his younger brother's illness and the life of the Lu clan to threaten his life, and had to do a lot of things against his will. ”
After listening to Lu Ruoxuan's explanation, Cui Wenqing bowed his head slightly, the most important thing in this question is to figure out the position of the Jiangdong Lu family, in fact, he does not believe that a big family that has been inherited for thousands of years will be in cahoots with the Ming Sect and the chaotic party, it seems that all this is because Lu Ruoxuan was coerced by him.
"Then the second question, what is Mingjiao's intention to let you approach me in the name of Wu Rouxuan?"
"Master Cui, the little woman doesn't know much about this, the only thing she knows is that Mingjiao doesn't have the idea of taking the lives of adults, what they want to do is to capture adults alive."
