Chapter 505: Wings Can't Escape (Three Watches)
"Look, sir, those people seem to be protecting the young man. On the teahouse, Ma Xianglin stretched out his hand and pointed to the sturdy young man next to the coffin, and said to Li Hongyu in a deep voice.
Because of the condescending position from the teahouse, you can clearly see the sturdy young man surrounded by the people around him, which means that this person has a special identity, otherwise he will definitely not be subconsciously protected.
"Looks like we've got the right person this time." Li Hongyu naturally noticed the scene in front of him, and when he heard this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a hint of a smile, and he slowly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Obviously, those people were not reacting normally at this time, and if they were ordinary people, they should be acting panicked now, but they now seemed very calm, and they were huddled around the sturdy young man, ordinary people would never do this.
Therefore, there is definitely something wrong with these people, and according to the current situation, it is definitely related to the abduction of Youlan.
Just then, a horse-drawn carriage came speeding down the street, and pedestrians along the way gave way to the shouts of the coachman.
"What's going on?" The carriage stopped outside the city gate, and the doctor Li Hongyu had been chatting with in the hospital got out of the carriage, and walked towards the burly military attache in surprise after looking at the scene in front of him, "My lord, what happened?" ”
"Doctor Zhang, you give a comment, they don't say that my nephew died of the plague, isn't this a bloody spewing of people!"
Seeing this, the middle-aged man seemed to have met a savior, and hurriedly said, "Tell me, did my nephew die of plague or typhoid?" ”
"My lord, according to the diagnosis and treatment, his nephew did die of typhoid fever, not the plague." Hearing this, Dr. Zhang hurriedly bowed his hand to the burly military attache and said, "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding here." ”
"Doctor Zhang, this official is also under a military order, after all, the plague is a big thing, if something goes wrong, it will be the people of the whole city who will suffer."
Hearing this, the burly military attache bowed his hand to Dr. Zhang, and said with a serious expression, "Now that Shangfeng has sent a medical officer, it is better to let the medical officer check it for the sake of safety and calm the people's hearts." ”
"Do you believe in the next treatment?" Hearing this, Doctor Zhang's face changed slightly, and he looked at the burly military attache and asked.
"Dr. Zhang's words are serious, Dr. Zhang has been practicing medicine in the county for decades, and he is a well-known saint of Xinglin, so the official naturally believes in Dr. Zhang's medical skills."
The burly military attache smiled when he heard this, he knew that Dr. Zhang had a high prestige in the city, so he explained, "This is the meaning of Shangfeng, and I hope that Dr. Zhang can understand, in case it is a rare plague, then the consequences will be unimaginable, and Shangfeng is also for the good of everyone." ”
Hearing this, the surrounding people nodded their heads and said yes, the officials of the Customs Department have no grievances with the sturdy young man, and they will not make such a big battle to open the coffin for no reason, the purpose is naturally for the safety of the people in the city, if there is really a plague, then the unlucky people will be the people in the city.
As the saying goes, the lesser of two evils, in front of the deceased for Yamato's open coffin autopsy, the people have chosen to open the coffin for autopsy to prevent the plague from breaking out in the city.
Therefore, the people understand the approach of the Customs Department very well, even if Dr. Zhang is highly respected in the local area, no one will joke with his life to help Dr. Zhang speak.
Doctor Zhang heard the whispered discussion of the people around him, and a look of disappointment suddenly appeared on his face, and he looked at the sturdy young man helplessly, he was powerless in the face of this situation.
After all, the opening of the coffin and the autopsy is an official matter of the government, and the burly military attache has already explained it reasonably, and it is not good for him to say too much as a doctor, so can he not spill it in front of many villagers? He can't do such a shameful thing!
"My lord, it's a matter of life and death, can't you listen to the rumors and open the coffin, so that my nephew will die without turning a blind eye!"
Seeing that Dr. Zhang was powerless, the middle-aged man's face turned pale, and he knelt on the ground with a plop, and pleaded while kowtowing to the burly military attaché, "You and your superiors can do well, let my nephew go, so that he can return to his hometown without being a lonely ghost wandering outside." ”
"Don't worry, we said that after the coffin is opened, we will not only change your nephew into a good coffin, but also do a water 6 puja to save your nephew, so that your nephew can ascend to Elysium as soon as possible."
At this time, the soldier who had come to deliver the message opened his mouth and said in a loud voice to the middle-aged man, so that there would be no problem of becoming a lonely ghost.
The surrounding people nodded their heads and praised when they heard the words, thinking that the practice of the Customs Department was benevolent and righteous, and the original yamen performed official business, and the coffin was opened, and whoever dared to say half a "no" word was immediately caught and squatted in the prison, so the practice of the Customs Department was already considered benevolent and righteous.
Fine beads of sweat oozed from the middle-aged man's forehead, and a look of despair appeared on his face, and he couldn't help but look at the sturdy young man, and now he didn't seem to have any reason to stop the coffin from being opened.
To tell the truth, it was already very rare for a burly military attache to be able to speak to him calmly, and other military attachés would definitely send someone to drive them aside and forcibly open the coffin.
The sturdy young man looked at the sailor soldiers who were waiting around him, and shook his head slightly at the middle-aged man, it was obvious that the burly military attache had already expressed his attitude, even if the middle-aged man was rolling around, he couldn't stop the coffin from being opened for autopsy, so it was better to save some effort.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man could only shake his head helplessly, and then got up and stood aside, sweating like rain on his forehead, as if he was very nervous.
The sturdy young man stood there with a gloomy face, the current situation was extremely unfavorable to them, they were not only bare-handed but also inferior in numbers, once the battle started, they would definitely suffer heavy casualties, he could see that the soldiers in front of him were strong and strong, and their movements were clean and well-trained, which was completely different from the guards in other parts of the Ming Dynasty.
Therefore, instead of sending the brothers to death in vain, it is better to wait and see what happens, and secretly wait for the opportunity.
Seeing that the middle-aged man got out of the way, the burly military attache waved his hand to the soldiers holding the coffin prying tools, and the soldiers rushed forward and pried up around the coffin.
Since the coffin was the cheapest one on the market, the coffin was not tightly sealed, and soon the soldiers pried open the lid of the coffin.
"My lord, there's a woman inside!" When several soldiers removed the lid of the coffin, one soldier looked inside the coffin and pointed to it and shouted to the burly military attaché.
"Women?"
Hearing this, the onlookers at the scene suddenly stirred, if they didn't hear it wrong, it should be a middle-aged nephew, how did it become a woman?
The sturdy young man couldn't help but clench his fists, his face was extremely gloomy, and he never imagined that the well-designed plan would be ruined.
"My lord, it seems that there is Youlan in the coffin!"
In the teahouse, Ma Xianglin heard the soldier's voice, so he said excitedly, except for Youlan, he really couldn't think of anyone else who would be smuggled out of the city in a coffin.
"I hope Youlan is safe!" Li Hongyu frowned slightly when he heard this, and looked at the situation at the city gate with concern, and said, if something bad happens to Youlan, it will be bad.
Under Li Hongyu's concerned gaze, a girl in a blue cloth skirt was helped out of the coffin by the soldiers, and Li Hongyu breathed a sigh of relief, the girl in the blue dress was Youlan, who had been missing for several days.
Youlan was a little delirious, holding her head with her hands, and answered the soldier's question a little sluggishly, and when she learned that this beautiful girl was the leader of the Jiangnan Oiran Conference that the Customs Department was looking for, the soldiers on the scene suddenly burst into a burst of triumphant cheers.
"Arrest them!" After seeing Youlan, the burly military attaché's face sank, and he stretched out his hand to point at the sturdy young man and the others, and shouted loudly, it is obvious that these people are the ones who set fire to the inn a few days ago and took advantage of the chaos to rob Youlan.
There was an uproar, and the soldiers around immediately rushed up, surrounding the sturdy young man and others, and the sturdy young man and others had to retreat together with the bright knives and guns, and the sturdy young man was tightly protected in the middle.
"What's going on? Isn't it a dead man? ”
"Oh my God, the Oiran conference that was stolen is hidden in a coffin."
"They're the ones who set the fire that night!"
"It's so dangerous, I almost fooled them through."
"Look, it's worthy of being the leader of the Oiran Conference, and it really looks like a fairy!"
……
Seeing this situation, the people who saw the excitement exploded and began to talk about it, realizing that the sturdy young man and others were the arsonists that the government wanted to arrest.
"You're already surrounded, and you're not going to be caught yet!" Seeing that the sturdy young man and the others were in a stubborn posture, the burly military attache stepped forward and shouted coldly at them.
"We can't fall into their hands, let's fight with them!" A man said to the sturdy young man through gritted teeth.
"Okay, let's fight with them, and we will be brothers and sisters in the next life."
The sturdy young man glanced at Youlan, then nodded slowly, and said in a deep voice, "What I owe you in this life, I will definitely pay it back in the next life!" ”
"Okay, let's be brothers and sisters in the next life!" Including the middle-aged woman who was sitting on the ground and crying before, the people around the sturdy young man said in unison, putting on a posture of looking at death as home.
"Listen, everyone, wait for the ones to be caught alive, don't hurt their lives." Seeing this, the burly military attache hurriedly ordered in a loud voice, and the Customs Department still had to find out the identities of these people, and of course they should be kept alive for interrogation.
Moreover, the sturdy young man and others did not carry weapons in order to pass the inspection of the city gate smoothly, so they were at an absolute disadvantage.
"You have killed these days, and this girl will avenge the people you have killed."
As soon as the burly military attaché's words fell, a coquettish voice suddenly sounded, and Youlan, who was originally being supported, suddenly pushed away the soldier who was supporting her, stretched out her hand and pulled out the saber on the waist of a soldier next to her, and rushed towards the sturdy young man with the knife.
The soldier who was robbed of his waist knife didn't have time to react for a while, and by the time he came back to his senses, Youlan was already some distance away from him.
"Quick, stop her!" The burly military attache didn't expect Youlan to act so recklessly at this time, and hurriedly shouted at the soldiers along the way.
It's a pity that it was too late, due to the suddenness of the incident, and the fact that Youlan was very close to the sturdy young man, so after the burly military attaché spoke, Youlan had already passed through the soldiers' defense line and entered the field, and under the gaze of everyone, he raised the waist knife in his hand to meet the sturdy young man.
"Oops!" Seeing this, Li Hongyu suddenly stood up from his seat, and a look of concern appeared in his eyes, wouldn't Youlan be in the mouth of a tiger by doing this, how could she be the opponent of those who kidnapped him?
