Chapter Ninety-Three: Arrested
[Chapter 4, Volume 4]
Section 100 Chapter 93 Captured
The man in black, the leader, slashed down, and the soft sword in Lan Yucheng's hand was immediately entwined. This knife looks dull, but the internal force hidden in it is huge.
"Bang." With a bang, the soft sword in Lan Yucheng's hand, after wrapping around the big knife, was actually broken into inches of scrap iron.
The leading black-clothed man looked at the shocked expression on Lan Yucheng's face with great pleasure, and said: "This knife is refined by the thousand-year-old dark iron rewarded by my master, and your soft sword has lasted so long before it was destroyed on this knife, and it is not considered to have buried it." ”
At this time, Lan Yucheng had no way to retreat. He seemed to have nothing to do but tie his hands down.
"Come on, help! Someone is killing someone~" Everything that happened just now has made Mengyu lose his mind, and in a panic, he only remembered to shout for help.
Lan Yucheng suddenly heard Mengyu's familiar voice, and when the four people around him were stunned, he immediately lifted his breath and rushed towards Mengyu's direction.
The man in black in the lead only flashed slightly, and immediately glanced at the other three, and followed closely.
Lan Yucheng picked up Mengyu, who was dressed as a man, and desperately used the little internal force he had left, used light skills, and ran forward. But how can Lan Yucheng, who ran with people, compare to the four people who easily caught up with him.
It didn't take long for Lan Yucheng and Mengyu to be surrounded by four men in black.
"Let her go, and I'll go back with you!" Lan Yucheng frowned, looked at the leader and said to the man in black.
"I didn't expect the son of the world to come to this point, and he still has the intention of saving people." The leader of the man in black sneered.
"I know you won't kill me, otherwise in the first place, you could have killed me with the other four." Lan Yucheng held Mengyu in his arms and said calmly.
"That's right, my master did order that you should not be killed!" A hint of appreciation flashed in the eyes of the leading man in black, and he continued: "But this person will definitely die!" The leader in black pointed the big knife in his hand at Mengyu in Lan Yucheng's arms.
"If you kill her, your master will be able to see my body." Lan Yucheng said menacingly.
"Huh." The leader in black chuckled: "The son of the world is really kind, and he is willing to give up his life for a stranger. ”
"If you don't believe it, you can try it!" In Lan Yucheng's eyes, there was no joke.
"Tie them both up, and put them into the wagon." The leader of the men in black thought calmly and commanded two of the assassins.
Before, Lan Yucheng had never looked at Mengyu, for fear that the man in black would find out that Mengyu was familiar with him. At this moment, Lan Yucheng could finally take a good look at this face that had been in his mind for the past few days.
Mengyu's face was slightly pale, and even the delicate red lips on weekdays were pale at the moment. Just looking at Lan Yucheng's eyes, it seemed that there were countless things to say. However, in his mouth, he had been stuffed into a ball of rags by the assassins.
After sending the two of them into the carriage, several men in black jumped one by one and left unexpectedly. Only a trembling old man was left behind, and he drove the carriage with a frightened face towards the slums north of Kyoto. Before getting into the car, Lan Yucheng saw the old man's panicked face, and he guessed that the old man was caught by them to drive and hide people's eyes. Although the man in black was no longer here, he had no intention of escaping. Because the man in black must still be watching them from a short distance.
It was a dilapidated carriage, and the planks were cracked between them. The wind of the winter night blew in through the cracks.
The two men in the carriage looked at each other face to face.
Dream whisper's eyes began to slowly accumulate a lot of tears. She didn't expect them to meet in such a situation. She didn't know where to go, what was waiting for the two of them. Little did she know that her father would have time to save them. She was still waiting for the rice in the sachet to determine if she wanted to spend her life with the man in front of her.
That's right, sachets!
Mengyu glanced down at her waist, but fortunately the sachet was still there. Ignoring the tears that had already rolled down her face, Mengyu carefully moved her bound hands, and it took a long time to open the sachet on her waist slightly. Then the rice in it was poured out. Through the thin slits between the wooden planks, Dream whispered a little, and scattered the rice grains little by little.
Now she can only pray that God will show kindness to her father and save them from the sea of suffering.
Lan Yucheng looked at everything Mengyu did, he didn't expect that by now, Mengyu would be able to think of a way to save himself so calmly. Seeing her dressed as a housekeeper, I remembered that she ran out alone in the middle of the night, and I was suddenly a little puzzled. But a thousand words, how can they talk to each other in detail.
On the other side, Tao'er ran back to the Lin Mansion in a panic, and hurriedly ignored it and went straight to Mrs. Lin's Peony House, because now, Master Lin would accompany Mrs. Lin who was pregnant every night.
"Master, something is wrong. Prince Luo was besieged by a group of men in black, and Miss was there! Peach shouted as she banged on the door.
Master Lin turned over, and he didn't bother to put on his shoes, so he immediately opened the door and asked, "What's going on?" ”
Tao'er knelt down weakly, crying and shouting: "Miss and Shizi are on a street in front of Prince Luo's mansion, the master should go and save Miss, I'm afraid it's too late!" ”
Mrs. Lin, who heard the movement, also got off the bed, and when she heard this, her face turned pale with fright. Master Lin immediately hugged Mrs. Lin and said, "I'll take a look, you have a good rest, don't worry too much!" Turning around, he instructed Mrs. Lin's four maids: "Take care of your wife." “
After speaking, he simply put on his coat, put on his shoes, and walked outside with a peach.
Tao'er's movements along the way have already alarmed the chief manager of the house. Master Lin saw Chief Manager Lin and said, "Lin An, quickly gather the available family members in the mansion." ”
It didn't take long for the strong men in the Lin Mansion to stand at the gate one after another.
When Lin Zhijie came back from the barracks, he saw this scene. Seeing his sister's personal big girl Tao'er standing in the crowd, a bad premonition suddenly came to mind.
"Why are you here, your young lady!?" Lin Zhi'an walked quickly to Tao'er and asked.
"Young Master, it's good for you to come back! Quick, go and save Miss! The prince was besieged by a group of men in black on a street in front of Prince Luo's mansion, and the young lady was also there! Tao'er looked surprised and said excitedly.
Lin Zhijie was shocked, and he didn't care about asking anything more, so he immediately used light skills and rushed towards the place Tao'er said.
When Lin Zhijie arrived at the scene, he only saw a middle-aged man, lying in a pool of blood with a frightened face. Not far away, there is also a stall that has been smashed to the ground and cannot be seen in its original appearance. After a closer inspection, there are traces of fighting everywhere.
"Dream language, dream language~" Lin Zhijie was in a panic, shouting Mengyu's name, just hoping that she heard it and could respond to him.
It's just that what responded to him was the cold wind whirring around him, and nothing else.
Master Lin followed closely behind Lin Zhijie and also arrived at the place of the incident.
When Tao'er saw the corpse, she didn't care about the horror, and hurriedly pointed to the corner of the wall where Mengyu was standing just now, and said to Master Lin: "This is it, when the slave and maid left, the young lady was standing here." ”
But at this moment, where is there still the figure of Dream Language.
Compared to Lin Zhijie's panic like a wounded beast, Master Lin was much calmer. He lowered his head and carefully checked the ground for any clues, and Chief Lin also walked into the corpse and began to examine it.
But on the ground, except for the corpse, there were only bloodstains, and nothing else.
"Master, the person who died was killed by a big knife directly through the body, looking at the dress, it should be the owner of the stall not far away." Manager Lin walked into Master Lin and said.
"Men in black, how many people are there?" Master Lin looked at the trembling Tao'er next to him and asked.
Tao'er shook her head: "When the slave saw the corpse, she was already ready to go back with the young lady. But the young lady heard that it was the prince who was besieged by the man in black, so she asked the slave to go back to the house to report the news. Therefore the slave and the maid did not see it. ”
His daughter, who has always been a calm and steady child, has become as reckless as her brother this time.
