Chapter 4: Prison Break (4)

Listening to the sound of slow footsteps, Zhao Gu didn't know that this general was checking the dust along the way, and he couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Fortunately, the traces of him and the man in black on the second floor were erased by him in advance.

The second floor was only that big after all, and no matter how slow the search was, the city defense generals quickly came to the small room full of holes on the ground.

Through these holes, the light of the fire under faintly shone all over the room, and the shadow of the city defense general stretched for a long time in the empty room.

The city defense general looked down at his shadow, unable to figure out what was wrong with his guess, and after a long time, he shook his head with a smile: "It seems that I am really too cautious, how could that bandit fly up to the second floor with a person." ”

With that, the city defense general strode out of the room, jumped down on the first floor, and quickly left with the catcher.

About fifteen minutes later, the two thieves climbed in from the back wall of the courtyard and entered the courtyard again.

They listened intently for a moment, and when they were sure that no one was there, they looked at each other, and soon disappeared around the corner.

It wasn't until the two of them left that Zhao Gu got off the ladder and sat on the ground, gasping for breath.

The man in black also descended the ladder, and glanced at the door in a daze, and he had to find a place to sit. The two of them stood motionless on the ladder for so long that their feet were cramping.

Seeing that the man in black had been staring at him, as if he had something to say, Zhao Gu smiled: "Do you want to scold me for being treacherous?" In my opinion, this general of yours is no better than mine. ”

This sentence was still silent, Zhao Gu was also used to the silence of the man in black, he closed his eyes and rested for two hours, and when he opened his eyes again, the sky was already dark.

Zhao Gu stood up silently, and found that the man in black had fallen asleep tiredly, and after pondering for a while, Zhao Gu went out of the small building alone and entered the backyard of a bun shop.

apologized to the owner of this steamed bun shop in his heart, Zhao Gu took ten steamed buns in the back kitchen, and then pushed hard to push down the whole basket of steamed buns, and the drawers crackled and fell to the ground, and the white buns inside instantly rolled to the ground.

Hearing the sound, the two big dogs guarding the door in the bun shop immediately barked and rushed over, while Zhao Gu secretly hid to the side.

The two dogs barked a few times in the backyard, then sniffed and ran to the side of the bun that had fallen to the ground, opened their mouths and gnawed.

By the time the owner of the bun shop ran to the backyard, the two dogs had already eaten most of the fallen buns, and the owner of the bun shop was naturally furious and chased the dogs all over the house with whips.

Zhao Gu took advantage of this time to sneak out quietly and returned to the abandoned small building.

The man in black was still asleep, and it seemed that he had been frightened by the night's thrilling journey. Zhao Gu thought about it, but still woke him up and handed him two buns.

"You eat first, I'll give it if it's not enough."

After speaking, Zhao Gu squatted aside and feasted on it, and the two big buns were stuffed into his mouth in three or two clicks.

I wanted to eat two more, but thinking that these buns were not easy to come by, and I didn't know when the next time I encountered this kind of opportunity, Zhao Gu endured it.

After carefully wrapping the six buns, Zhao Gu began to think about a way out of the city.

At present, although he successfully escaped from prison, it alarmed the government, and now it is estimated that Mankaifeng is full of people who are searching for him, and only by leaving the city as soon as possible can he save his life, otherwise who knows when he will be found out, and the situation he will face will be even more severe.

The night of October is already very long, and it is now more than seven o'clock in the next generation, but the sky is not very bright, and this morning there is a heavy fog, and although there are some pedestrians on the hazy streets, it is still impossible to see it from a distance.

From time to time, there were bright lights on both sides of the street, which were caused by the wind blowing through the unburned lanterns, and people were hurrying along, many of them cursing the damn weather in low voices.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Gu took the man in black out of the small courtyard and touched the back door of the bun shop again.

With a wry smile in his heart, he apologized to the owner of the steamed bun shop again, and Zhao Gu took out a hemp cloth and swept it in the back kitchen of the steamed bun shop.

He doesn't take everything, and the things he wraps up are some things that are essential for escaping, such as water bladders, ropes, knives, etc.

After taking these things, Zhao Gu and the others left quietly, slightly distinguishing the direction, and the two hurriedly interspersed in the crowd, and soon came to the north city gate.

In the steamed bun shop, the fat boss soon found that there was a lot of things missing, and the owner of the steamed bun shop was furious, cursing the thief loudly, and soon found Kaifeng Mansion to catch the fast.

The two experienced catchers arrived at the scene, looked at each other, and both saw the light in each other's eyes.

The two arresters immediately separated one person, returned to the Kaifeng Mansion, and found Li Hao, the same acquaintance of Kaifeng Mansion.

"My lord, there's news."

Catching quickly through the screen, 1510 told the theft of the bun shop, and a majestic voice soon came from the other side of the screen, saying: "These things should be necessary for running for your life, right?" ”

"Yes, my lord, and according to the owner of the steamed bun shop, two dogs in their store knocked over the drawer of steamed buns earlier, which is also very weird, it is said that there are dogs in the bun shop, so they will naturally guard against them, where will they be given the opportunity to steal food."

"In this way, then Zhao Gu must be preparing to flee, and they are going to leave Kaifeng City." Li Hao pondered for a moment, and then decisively ordered: "Even if they want to go out of the city, it is not so easy, you immediately gather people to search the area near the bun shop, and be sure to find Zhao Gu and Master Su." ”

"But that area is very prosperous, people come and go, we don't have enough people." Catch said cautiously.

"Then send the city defense army to guard the gate, Zhao Gu with a person, if you want to go out of the city, you will pass through the city gate, what is the difference between leaving a hundred people to guard and ten people to guard, can Zhao Gu still turn the sky upside down?" Li Hao said.

"Yes, my subordinates know."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and was about to leave, but he heard a mysterious voice from behind him.

"You remember, the dead Zhao Gu is more valuable in the eyes of this official. And that Master Su, if you really can't save it, don't save it. ”

"Yes......."

Zhao Gu took the man in black to stay quietly in a small alley near the north city gate, waiting for the opportunity to get out of the city.

The sun slowly rose, the white fog had gradually dispersed, the blurred figures of the pedestrians became real, and the expressions on the faces of the thirty soldiers stationed at the city gate in the distance also became clear at this time.

Time passed minute by minute, and Zhao Gu was ready to transfer again.

He didn't know if his plan to divert the tiger from the mountain would succeed, at this time he could only pin his hopes on the city defense general, as long as he couldn't hear the news of the theft of the bun shop at the first time, other people should not be able to see through his plan.

But he still didn't leave, he was gambling, the general of the gambling city defense was delayed at this time, and the high-ranking Tongzhi of Kaifeng Mansion was eager to kill him.

About a quarter of an hour later, a Kaifeng Mansion Catcher quickly entered the North City Gate, said a few words to the soldiers stationed there, and took away two-thirds of the soldiers.

As a result, only ten soldiers were left guarding the north gate, and only four people were actually searched.

A smile finally appeared on Zhao Gu's face, although there were still soldiers stationed at the gate of the city, but for him, who had been influenced by the anti-Japanese drama since he was a child, it was not difficult to find a chance to get out of the city.

A four-person search is naturally different from a twenty-person search, as long as there is an omission, he has a chance.

After a while, the opportunity to go out of the city came, and Zhao Gu set his sights on a convoy transporting cloth.

The convoy consisted of eight vehicles, six of which were loaded with cloth of various colors, and the other two were being loaded.

Looking for a vacancy, Zhao Gu stuffed the man in black into one of the cars, followed him into it, and the people who moved the goods did not notice this anomaly, and quickly filled the remaining two cars.

After waiting for a while, Zhao Gu felt that the carriage under him began to shake, thinking that it was already walking.

The carriage paused halfway, and Zhao Gu then heard a nice female voice talking to someone. When I listened closely, I heard that this was the convoy at the gate of the city, and the soldiers stationed there wanted the wagon to unload the goods for them to inspect, but the female voice was unwilling to unload the car, delaying the delivery trip.

At this time, other people who were waiting to go out of the city also began to persuade one after another, saying that this convoy has so many goods, if all of them are unloaded and inspected, and then loaded after they have finished checking, I am afraid that it will be three poles a day, and how can other people go out of the city.

The soldiers stationed there had no choice but to look around the truck full of cloth, and finally chose to let it go.

It was only at this time that Zhao Gu breathed a sigh of relief. Not wanting to leave the city for only ten minutes or so, a bright blade skillfully interspersed the cloth he was hiding in, and pressed against his neck.

"Boy, have you hidden enough?"

Zhao Gu heard that this voice was the female voice who had negotiated with the soldiers before, and thought that it was the leader of this convoy or something. Thinking that since she had taken herself out of the city, she should not be from the official mansion, so Zhao Gu would no longer hide.

Pushing away the cloth that helped him hide, Zhao Gu revealed his figure, and found that the masked woman who was holding the knife against him was a masked woman, with a graceful posture, giving people a glamorous feeling, and behind him, there were six horsemen and four guards.

"You're finally reluctant?" The woman laughed.

Zhao Gu hugged his fists: "I was able to get out this time, thanks to the rescue of the girl, I am grateful." ”

"Yo, you're pretty good at saying good things!"

The woman's face suddenly turned cold and she shouted. "But do you know that once those soldiers really want to search, if they find you, I'm afraid that my little shop will not be able to open, and I and my fellows may even go to jail."

Apologetically hugging his fists again, Zhao Gu asked, "But what I don't understand is that since I know that it is very risky to take me out of the city, why does the girl still have to take risks?" ”

"Because of this girl you carry, you are really good, you dare to elope, if you ...... back then."

Halfway through the masked woman's speech, her voice became smaller and smaller, and gradually Zhao Gu couldn't hear clearly, she then took the knife away and turned around with a lonely expression.
