Chapter 35 The Capture of Stolen Goods

In the gloomy prison of the Ministry of Punishment, Liu Ruyan's hair was unkempt, curled up in a pile of dead grass, and there was a clear tear stain in the corner of her eye. Without fat powder, her pale and emaciated face appeared clearer, her eyebrows were clear, and she looked forward to Shenfei. Her hands were wrapped in a few strips of dirty rags, but they were layered and closely arranged.

"Sister Ruyan" heard a choked call, she turned her head in surprise and saw the green pothos girl with tears in her eyes. Ruyan struggled to climb to the railing and asked, "Sister, why are you here?" Has the mother-in-law been let out? ”。

Pothos lowered her head and shook her head softly.

Ruyan raised her wrist lightly, reached out to help the green pothos wipe away the tears that slipped from the corners of her eyes, and smiled hard: "Silly sister, you also know that my mother-in-law and I have been wronged, and it won't be long before we are released, you wait patiently, if you don't come to this kind of ghost place in the future!" ”。

Pothos glared at Ruyan's hands and asked in surprise, "Sister Ruyan, what's wrong with your hands?" ”。

Ruyan glanced down and said softly: "The pain of skin and flesh does not hurt the bones, and it is not in the way." After you go out, my sister can still teach you to play the piano. ”

Green pothos asked with tears in her eyes: "Sister Ruyan, it was all caused by the boy in white!" Don't you hate him? Without him, there would be no such flying disaster. ”

Ruyan frowned and said, "Hate him? Why should I hate him? Maybe everything is predestined, such as smoke should have such a catastrophe, but it can't be blamed on others. With that, she sighed softly, looked up at the sky above her head, and muttered, "That boy is one of the few literary and elegant people I have met over the years, and he even sings strange tunes, and the words seem to have been written for Ruyan." As he spoke, a slight smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

Luluo stared at Ruyan's eyes for a long time, shook her head slightly, and said, "Sister, you are in prison, and you don't resent him at all?" Little sister can't figure it out. ”

Ruyan retracted his gaze and said lightly: "When you grow up, you will understand, and I don't know if that son is out of danger safely." I firmly believe that he must have been framed, as innocent as I am. ”

Ruyan suddenly lowered her head, bit her lip, thought for a moment and said: "Pothos, in case something happens to me and my mother-in-law, we bought a courtyard in advance in Boren Lane in the southern suburbs, and there is a box buried under a pomegranate tree in the backyard, where there are my savings for many years, you take it away from Dadu, and never come back!" ”。

Green pothos' eyes widened in surprise, and she shook her head again and again: "Sister, don't say that, no!" I'm waiting for you to get out of prison as soon as possible. ”

Ruyan said gloomily: "Who knows? The world is unpredictable, and life is impermanent. ”

After pushing open the door, the officials squeezed in first. Hou San glanced at the room with confidence, and suddenly felt that something was wrong. Look closely: Mom, his black night robe was spread flat on the bed, and he remembered that he had hidden it when he left the room. Did you forget it in a panic? With just one piece of clothing, they will be helpless to me!

The officials skilfully rummaged through the boxes and cabinets, but the man at the head did not have much hope in his heart, and he paced a little lazily, twisting his neck, and looking around with a scattered gaze.

"My lord, there it is!" A soldier shouted excitedly holding a necklace of women's pearls.

The man in charge and the innkeeper were taken aback, for it was obvious that these things should not be here.

Guan Yu, who walked at the back of the crowd, remained silent, while Hou San's eyes were about to fall to the ground in horror, because these things were too familiar to him!

"There's still one here." A soldier who was searching elsewhere also shouted excitedly, reaching out and pulling out a few pieces of gold ingots strung together through a crack in a broken cabinet.

Hou San's face became more and more ugly, and beads of sweat the size of beans oozed from his forehead.

The innkeeper couldn't help but be curious, and stepped forward to lift the futon on the bed: the ancestral jade Buddha of his family in the corner was impressive. The shopkeeper picked up the jade Buddha, held it in his hand and looked at it carefully for a moment, carefully handed the Buddha statue to the young man behind him, stepped forward with angry eyes, grabbed Hou San's neck, and roared: "Okay! It turned out that you kid thief shouted to catch the thief, and you wanted to frame others! Now that people have obtained stolen goods, it depends on how you deny it. ”

The commander who led the team was also full of red light and his heart was full of joy, and this unexpected gain was enough for him and his brothers to live a good life for at least half a year.

Guan Yu followed behind everyone from a distance, watching the excitement quietly. By the way, the only way for Hou San to escape was tightly sealed.

Hou San was in a hurry, turned his head and shouted to Guan Yu: "Little brother, you come to prove that I was wronged, didn't we drink and talk last night?" ”。

Guan Yu shook his head blankly and said, "You yourself said that you don't know me, it seems that I drank too much last night and recognized the wrong person!" ”。

The commander who led the team sneered: "Until now, you still want to deny it and blame others?" As he spoke, he raised the steel knife in his hand and motioned for everyone to come forward and arrest him.

When Hou San saw several errand officials pulling out the ropes and surrounding him, he was completely desperate: he had tried what it was like to be in prison, and he deeply realized that life was often worse than death in it. Finally broke free from the cage, he must not go back!

The innkeeper grabbed him by the collar and didn't listen to a word of what he was shouting. He only knew that he had once again been cornered, and he had to fight back with all his strength and escape.

Thinking of this, he suddenly spun his body in place, and at the same time slapped his palm heavily on the chest of the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was completely defenseless, and the hand that grabbed Hou San's neck collar involuntarily let go, and the person fell backwards on his back.

Guan Yu hurriedly rushed forward and helped the innkeeper. Hou San waited for this opportunity, he toe lightly, jumped up, and rushed towards the door quickly, trying to escape from the way.

The officials discovered his intentions, shouted at the same time, and quickly surrounded him with steel knives.

Before the officials could catch up, Hou San's ankle, who was jumping in mid-air, was suddenly grabbed by someone, and his body paused in mid-air for a moment, and then he suddenly fell down as heavy as a thousand catties.

Hou San was really anxious, and the moment he landed, he suddenly took out a sharp dagger from his arms and stabbed it hard at Guan Yu's chest, who grabbed his ankle.

Guan Yuwu was taken aback, he didn't expect this Hou Sangou to jump off the wall in a hurry, and he actually took a sharp blade in his arms, so he hurriedly retreated and let go of the big hand that was holding Hou San's ankle.
