Chapter 34: Gathering
......
A teenager ran briskly in the rain-filled alleyway, the blood of the dagger in his hand washed away and his clothes wet.
The package that was placed on his chest was hugged tightly by the boy.
In the empty alleyway, the boy stopped and looked at the sky.
Dark clouds obscured the moonlight and stars, and there was no light in the sky.
The lights of a few houses barely illuminate the road.
The boy paused for a moment, then continued into the night.
Until the night disappeared from him......
The southern city on a rainy night is not peaceful, at least on the outside.
The sound of horses stomping on the ground and the sound of armor shaking disturbed the quiet streets.
"Search them all for me! I want to see people alive and dead to see corpses!"
The doors of the common people were violently slammed open by soldiers in armor. After pouring in like bees, they rummaged through the cabinets and made a mess of their home.
"Official, we didn't do anything, what are we going to do?"
"Don't flip it! That's my daughter's dowry!"
"There's no one in the cave, it's all food. ”
"Get out of here, those who block will be killed!"
The soldiers searched for a person in every house with cold faces.
A teenager who killed the eldest young man of the Lu family and Lu Yuan's son, Lu Fengnian's young man. They were ordered to search with all their might, and they were to be arrested dead or alive.
The rainy night wet the road, and puddles of water were trampled and splashed out. A middle-aged man riding a red BMW watched the drizzle falling from the sky.
He is Lu Yuan.
Born in a poor family, he started his family by being abducted and deceived by the pit, from a poor boy to the current head of the Lu family, and he is also a famous person in the outer circle of Nancheng.
But he has done all the evil things, and he once found a fortune teller to calculate, and he has rare heirs in this life. Under countless gold and silver treasures and coercion and temptation, the Taoist priests lined up and forcibly changed his life.
And since then, he has been worshipping the Buddha all day long, begging for the incense to continue. Finally, when he was forty, he had a precious son.
He can be described as a great pampering of his son, for fear of being wronged, but today......
Lu Yuan's face became hideous, his fists clenched, he must arrest that bastard boy, and cut An Fengnian's spirit in the sky with a thousand knives.
......
On the other side, in a dilapidated warehouse.
The source of the chaos was crouching in the corner of the warehouse, huddled on his knees.
"What the hell am I thinking?"
"It's so insignificant?"
"It's miserable, it's over. ”
"There's something wrong with me. ”
Yin Ziqing couldn't help but hug himself tighter, killed Lu Fengnian, and now it is estimated that he has been targeted by the Lu family, and he suddenly wants to cry without tears.
I'm dying of cold, I'm soaking wet. I can't eat roast pigeons tomorrow.
Yin Ziqing stared at the ground and muttered.
However, he has no regrets about killing Lu Fengnian, that kid must have done a lot of unconscionable deeds like his father.
also bullied himself a little doll in the mountains, and he was about to kill himself at every turn.
If you want to kill me, I'm not going to kill you first?
Yin Ziqing said righteously, and then sighed, next is trouble, I am not familiar with the people in Nancheng, and I have caused a big trouble as soon as I entered the city.
He now has only two options.
First, escape from Nancheng or enter the middle of Nancheng.
The southern city is divided into three parts: the outer area is inhabited by some ordinary nobles and common people.
Zhongwei is a powerful family and some princes, and Lu Yuan's snobbery can't reach it yet, but who can enter and exit there except for those princes and heirs and the children of everyone?
As for the inner circumference, don't even think about it, it's all royal people, and if he wants to go in, he probably has to be a eunuch.
If you escape from the southern city, it is estimated that the city gate has been sealed or someone has closely investigated.
The second method is to enter the big sect, like the old Taoist priest said the Sword Sect, the Qi Fusion Sect.
As long as he shows enough talent to enter the sect, even if Lu Yuan knows, there is no way, after all, he is only a second-rate man, and the sect can keep Yin Ziqing.
That would have to wait until the sect's trial, which meant that he would have to hide for a month, not to mention whether this warehouse would be searched, and the rations on his body alone would not be enough to support his ideas.
If you have it, you can kill yourself.
Yin Ziqing rolled his eyes, took out a thick steamed bun from the package and gnawed it viciously.
"It's better in the mountains, there are so many birds in the city, damn it!" The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, Yin Ziqing took out another steamed bun and gnawed on it.
I'm going, rancid.
......
The sun slowly rises in the east, and the southern city ushers in the first rays of dawn of the day. After last night's drizzle, the morning air seemed exceptionally fresh.
Yin Ziqing in the warehouse stretched his waist and looked at the sunlight projected by the wooden window above. The wooden window is dozens of meters high from the ground, and Yin Ziqing came in through the window last night, because the warehouse is made of red bricks, and if it is a smooth wall, Yin Ziqing will probably have to sleep on the tree last night.
Before the bed gas dissipated, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside, Yin Ziqing's ears moved, and he softly picked up the package and tied it to his body, leaning against the wall and listening to the movement outside.
"Captain, this is the granary of the government, how could that kid come in?"
"I'm afraid that in case, no matter what, search inside and out. ”
A middle-aged non-commissioned officer said to the young soldier next to him. Last night, they searched all night, basically searching the homes of the people in the entire outer circle, but they still didn't find the bastard boy.
Those old men are also sending their own people to search inside and out, and they have no need to collect Yin Ziqing. Now the only possibility is that Yin Ziqing hid in these mansions or found a secret kiln to hide in.
As for going out of the city, Lu Yuan's old thing had already arranged dozens of people to investigate, and they had to ask about the details one by one and then feel it thoroughly, and even the items they carried had to be carefully checked. Unless that kid reaches the sky, he can't escape with wings.
"Go in and search for me!" As soon as the middle-aged non-commissioned officer gave an order, dozens of soldiers immediately walked into the large warehouse.
Yin Ziqing in the warehouse listened to these words word for word, and leaned on the wall with his feet biting his shoes to prepare to climb.
He'd seen the layout of the warehouse, which was divided into three areas, with two "T" walls dividing the warehouse into three sections, and he was in the area on the lower left. The soldiers would search the front first, and he would use this time to climb to the window and go up to the top of the warehouse.
Because most of the people outside will keep their hands on the wind, it is unrealistic to want to escape now, and he is not clear about the situation outside now, so he can't act rashly.
"Bang, smack!" There was a sound of turning things in front, Yin Ziqing tied the package tightly, stepped on the wall with one foot, and then kicked hard, and quickly climbed to the wall and window with his hands and feet.
If someone who knows how to see it, they will definitely be surprised by the speed and stability of Yin Ziqing's climbing.
Glancing at the entrance of the warehouse, those soldiers had not finished searching the front warehouse, Yin Ziqing looked out to see the situation, and sure enough, there were several people standing around the warehouse.
Standing on the window, one turned, quickly crawled, turned over and jumped to the top of the warehouse. Like a gecko, Yin Ziqing easily went up to the top of the warehouse, lay down on the slope paved with tiles, and looked at the sky with Erlang's legs crossed.
"Hey, did you just hear anything?"
"What's the sound, did you not sleep all night last night and were in a trance. ”
"I think he's been tossing a lot with his mother-in-law these days, nothing!"
"Go away, go away, full of. ”
Listening to the jokes of the soldiers guarding below, Yin Ziqing couldn't help but puff out his cheeks, he hadn't done these things for a few days, and now the sound can be heard by others?
The sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets continued, and the people inside searched for a target in the dusty warehouse.
And the person they are looking for is on top of them leisurely basking in the sun and nibbling on steamed buns. "I touched a few steamed buns and there was a rancid one, it's really annoying, and the yamen, I easily touched it last night and smoothed a few steamed buns, and no one knows. Yin Ziqing secretly scolded in his heart, despising this Nancheng Mansion.
Last night, the people in the government were all called out by Lu Yuan to look for Yin Ziqing, but they never expected that Yin Ziqing would touch their nest, and they also took a few steamed buns to be used as pig food......
In the warehouse below, the soldiers have searched it.
"Report to the sir, no trace of the target has been found. The young soldier reported to the middle-aged non-commissioned officer.
"Let's go. The middle-aged non-commissioned officer waved his hand and walked out, and everyone lined up to follow.
After seeing everyone leave, Yin Ziqing touched his chin and thought about how to avoid these people until the sect trial.
......
Unlike the hustle and bustle of last night, the streets of the day are thriving again.
There was a constant stream of hawking, and every few street performers performed all kinds of juggling.
"Selling steamed buns, big and fragrant, I gave friends a big bun that they said was delicious and sweet. The oily boss in the bun shop was selling his own buns with a smile on his face, and his face suddenly changed, "Go, go farther, don't put my trick aside." The boss said to a teenager standing in front of the bun shop.
It's really bad luck to have a beggar in front of the door early in the morning.
The ragged young man looked at the boss, folded his hands, and pleaded in a hoarse voice: "Okay, let's enjoy something, I've been hungry for three days." After speaking, he covered his mouth and coughed a few times.
"Gotta get it, give you a bun, go fast. The boss grabbed a bun and threw it over, wanting to get rid of this Hanako as soon as possible.
"Thank you, thank you. The boy grabbed the bun and nodded hurriedly, and then walked away quickly.
"Bad luck. ”
In the alley, a young man who had just been ragged was munching on a bun. "Don't say it's quite fragrant, I'm almost tired of eating steamed buns these days, but there is a stuffing. Yin Ziqing muttered in his heart.
He soiled his face with mud, ruffled his hair, turned his yellow cloth clothes over, leaked out the white cloth inside, tore his precious clothes and rolled them on the mud floor, then buried the package under a tree, and quietly groped out of the palace.
