Ji Lang had learned the art of escape with Yuan Wu, but he found that the rope that bound him was not an ordinary knot, but a hard knot made by trained officers and soldiers or talents in the army.

Don't blame him for not being able to open.

Come to think of it, the person who can ambush around the Egret Academy and knock himself out so quickly must not be an ordinary robber.

A few days ago, the matter of the third cousin being framed has not been completely figured out, but I didn't expect that now it was my turn to suffer.

But why catch yourself?

As he got used to the darkness of the room, he could barely see the general layout of the room, with some firewood around him, and a few haystacks around him, so he was now thrown in the woodroom.

He struggled a few times, but the rope still didn't move, and he could only rely on the wriggling of his body to slowly move in the direction of the door.

It took him a while to climb behind the door, and then he kicked it with his foot, making a "thump" sound.

Seeing that no one paid attention to him, he continued to kick again, so that the door kept ringing, and the movement was particularly loud in the quiet of the night.

Then Ji Lang heard the footsteps of someone approaching, so he kicked a little harder.

"Kick what kick!" came a fierce voice outside the door.

Ji Lang knew that someone was there, and continued to kick the door, and there was a screeching sound.

The people outside the door seemed to be unable to stand Ji Lang's noisy appearance, and finally took out the key and began to open the door of the firewood room.

As soon as he opened the door, Ji Lang felt that his eyes finally saw a little more clearly, because there were several lanterns hanging not far from the firewood room, and the two men in black clothes and masks saw Ji Lang, and saw that the rope tied to his body was still there, but he snorted coldly.

"You'd better be at ease, boy!" said the man in black.

Ji Lang struggled to shout, but his mouth was tied with a strip of cloth, and he could only make a "woo-woo" sound.

Seeing that he was still young, he looked like he was only about ten years old, with thin arms and legs, and there was not much of a threat, so the man in black put down the strip of cloth in his mouth.

The strip of cloth on Ji Lang's mouth was finally released, he glanced at the two men, and asked a little timidly, "Who are you?"

One of the men said: "The owner of Bao Chang Ji is worth a lot, why do you say we want to kidnap you?"

Ji Lang's eyes moved slightly, and he didn't believe his words, but he still said: "How much money do you want, as long as you let me go, I can give it to you!"

Hearing Ji Lang's words, the two men glanced at each other, and then laughed contemptuously.

"Don't worry, how much it costs, I'll inform your sister. The man said, "You'd better not do anything else, or I'm not sure I'll do anything to you! We want the money, but it's up to you whether or not you can keep your life!"

Ji Lang heard them say this, and couldn't help but move a little.

"Kick the door again, and I'll chop off your foot!" the other man glared at Ji Lang viciously.

Ji Lang frowned, looked scared, and said, "I...... I'm just hungry, and I haven't eaten anything since noon, not even water. My sister won't be so stupid, she'll definitely see that I'm okay before she gives you money, and if I starve to death, you don't want to get a penny from my sister!"

The two men looked at each other, remembering that they had indeed forgotten to feed him.

"You wait, I'll go get you something to eat. A man left this sentence and turned away.

Ji Lang's eyes looked at the man in black guarding the door, and said, "My hands hurt so much, can you not tie me like this, I can't run anyway." ”

"You'd better not play any tricks on me, boy. The man in black glanced at him, but did not move.

Ji Lang said: "If you just want money, my family has money, and if you take the money and release people, I will naturally not be so stupid and have to run out and be killed by you." ”

The man in black looked at him, did not answer, his eyes were cold, and he turned around and closed the door.

Ji Lang's eyes stared straight at the door, and his eyes sank.

It didn't take long for another guard to return, wrap a few hard steamed buns in paper, and throw them in front of Ji Lang.

"Eat, that's all you can eat in the middle of the night. The man in black said.

Ji Lang valued those steamed buns with disgust and refused: "I don't want to eat this!"

"It's good to have something for you to eat, but you're still going to pick and choose?" the man in black said impatiently.

Ji Lang said: "I have never eaten anything like this since I was a child, you are too perfunctory, I want to eat meat!"

The man in black said coldly, "Do you think you're still a big young master now? If we shout again, don't blame us for beating people. ”

Ji Lang bit his lip, looking unwilling and could only give up, and finally said: "Then you can untie my hands, or how will I eat, my hands are so sore, I feel like they are going to be broken." ”

The man in black looked at the various demands in front of him, and felt that it was impossible for such a person to escape, so he stepped forward and untied the rope in his hand.

"You'd better not try to run away or scream, if we find out, we'll just kill you with a single sword. The man in black said fiercely.

Ji Lang shrank his head and nodded obediently.

The two men in black closed the door and locked it with a lock.

Ji Lang's hand was finally untied, his wrist was sore, and he couldn't help but knead each other a few times, and then he untied the rope that bound his feet and completely relaxed.

He picked up a few steamed buns on the ground, took two bites and spit them out.

It's really not delicious, and it's hard to swallow.

Ji quietly walked behind the door, listening to the movement outside, although it was quiet outside, through the slit, he could see that the two men just now were still guarding the door.

When the door opened just now, he also took a general look at the location of this firewood house, which did not look like it was on the outskirts of the city or Zhuangzi, but like it was in the courtyard.

This shows that he should not be out of the city, and he is still in Chang'an City.

It's just that he wasn't sure where he was, and the two black-clothed men just now obviously had good martial arts, if he fought hard, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to please.

Even if he tried his best to bring down the two black-clothed men who were guarding, he didn't know how many guards there were in this courtyard, and it would be useless to be found when the time came.

Since they still have one of their lives left, it means that they need themselves, so their lives are not in danger for the time being.

Thinking of this, Ji Lang walked to the haystack in the corner and sat down, anyway, now that his own people are in their hands, even if he wants to run, he can't be in a hurry.
