Chapter 27: Into the Trap
The morning in Mucheng is particularly lively.
Lots of traders and vendors set up stalls on the roads.
Steward Zhu disguised himself as a businessman and blended in with it.
Not far away is the Castle Lord's Mansion.
He squatted on the ground, in front of him was an antique child-like stall, and his eyes drifted to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion from time to time.
And on the second floor box of a teahouse, several strangely dressed people were whispering.
The person who attacked Steward Zhu was also among them.
The other two.
One was cloaked, veiled, dressed in light green, and carrying a wooden sword.
The other man was less than five feet tall and extremely fat, and if it weren't for the protruding head, he would have thought he was a ball of meat.
"Lord Bat, this guy has already failed once, and you still believe him?"
The little meat ball giggled, jumped on the table, and said to the skinny black clothes.
The skinny black clothes are called bats, and the image is quite consistent.
"It's best if we don't do anything about it, if it gets the attention of the other gangs, we and the forces behind us will suffer, you know?"
The bat was extremely serious, and there was a chill in his tone.
Meatball patted his chest with both hands and said, "What is there in that mortal that is worth our fight?"
"Hmph, there's something you still don't know. ”
As soon as the face of the meat ball changed, he was about to get angry.
"Brother Hu, forget it, I still don't know about this matter after all. ”
The veiled man came up to be a peacemaker.
“....... Hum. Meatball was silent for a moment, then snorted at the end.
"He acted, and we followed. The bat spoke up.
Immediately, his body turned into black shards, drilled out of the window, and floated into the sky above the City Lord's Mansion.
The veiled man smiled wryly, took out a small porcelain bottle, and sprinkled powder on the meat balls and himself.
The figures of the two of them disappeared in an instant.
"A bottle of invisibility powder, but it cost me three hundred taels of gold to get it. ”
The voice of the veiled man was heard in the air.
"Stingy ghost, all of you Absolute Peak Sect are rich and wealthy, a bottle of stealth powder, what are you yelling about?"
Meatball said disdainfully.
Then the two climbed out of the window and followed closely behind the bat.
At this time, Steward Zhu turned into a servant and was wandering around the city lord's mansion.
He didn't go directly to Doctor Du, but secretly came to Doctor Du's father's room.
He was very familiar with the city lord's mansion, and easily avoided the soldiers on patrol, and no one noticed him.
"Hehe, Doctor Du, if I kidnap your stupid sister, see if you don't listen to me obediently. ”
Steward Zhu pushed open the door, and Doctor Du's mother was washing Du Wan's face and brushing her teeth.
"Who are you? Doctor Du's mother saw Steward Zhu who pushed the door open.
"Old lady, I'll clean the room. Steward Zhu said respectfully.
"I don't need you to come, I can do it myself. ”
"I'm afraid it won't be as the old lady wishes. ”
Steward Zhu stepped forward and slapped Doctor Du's mother unconscious, and then picked up Du Wan.
Du Wan didn't cry or make trouble, and shouted happily in Steward Zhu's arms.
"Uncle Zhu, Uncle Zhu!"
“... Silly girl. Steward Zhu sneered, and then went out and ran outside.
The three people on the roof clearly watched Steward Zhu's actions.
"It's time. The bat turned its palm, as if it had activated something.
At the same time, Zhou Hu was playing morning boxing.
Suddenly, I felt the mark left on Steward Zhu's body.
"How is it possible? He's in the City Lord's Mansion, oh no, Miss's breath is with him!"
Zhou Hu immediately jumped on the roof and rushed in that direction.
And shouted, "Come on, hurry to the courtyard of the old lady and catch the thief!"
When the soldiers heard Zhou Hu's voice, they immediately grabbed the weapons around them and ran towards the courtyard of Dr. Du's father.
And Dr. Du's room is actually next to his father's room, separated by two walls, and the distance is only about two hundred meters.
Because he was seriously injured, he is still asleep.
It wasn't until the chaotic running sounds of soldiers outside that he woke up.
"Oh no, my lord, Miss, she was kidnapped!"
Little Finger broke in from the outside, she was in charge of the old lady's daily life, so except for Zhou Hu, she was the first person to know the situation.
"What?" Du Yi was shocked, and the first thing he thought of now was Manager Zhu.
Doctor Du picked up his clothes and put them on at will, and ran outside.
"Tell me what's going on!" Doctor Du asked, grabbing a soldier.
"My lord, General Zhou Hu asked us to protect you and the old lady here. ”
"Where's Zhou Hu?"
"The general just chased out. ”
"Damn it, get me a horse. ”
"Your safety, my lord. ”
"Don't talk nonsense, if you don't go, I'll cut off your head right away!"
The soldiers then brought a horse for Du Yi, followed by more than a dozen of Zhou Hu's elite soldiers.
One of them said, "My lord, we know that you are eager to protect your sister, so we don't plan to stop you, we just want to go together to protect the safety of the Lord." ”
"Good!"
Doctor Du nodded, turned over on his horse, and hurried out.
Zhou Hu had already come to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion at this time.
Originally, he could have taken it in one fell swoop in the mansion, but unfortunately he suddenly lost the feeling of the imprint on Steward Zhu.
Let Steward Zhu escape from the City Lord's Mansion.
When I came outside, I felt it again.
Zhou Hu is not a stupid person, so he naturally thought that there must be something strange in it.
But even if there is something strange, Zhou Hu has to chase after it.
One is to believe in one's own strength, and the other is to be unable to give an adult.
So it has to be chased.
"How did he get out of the city? What about the soldiers guarding the gate?" Zhou Hu said secretly in his heart.
When Zhou Hu arrived at the city gate, the huge red lacquered iron gate had been broken, and a team of guards guarding the gate also died tragically on the spot, and their heads were all cut off.
"It's a sharp swordsmanship, at least the strength of the eighth layer of the eye. ”
Zhou Hu's face was solemn.
In less than a minute, Zhou Hu's elite soldiers rushed over.
"General?"
"Tell to go down, and be ready to form a formation at any time. ”
"General, we don't have enough manpower, and the remaining thirteen brothers are staying in the City Lord's Mansion. ”
"Eat the Tiger Pill to make up. ”
"Yes, General. ”
Zhou Hu led his elite soldiers and ran out of the city.
In less than ten minutes, Du Yi and the remaining thirteen elite soldiers also rushed out of the city.
The bats hidden in the city walls grinned.
"It's time to go and inform you. ”
About half an hour passed, and Zhou Hu felt that the imprint was also intermittent, but he did not lose contact after all.
Slowly came to a low basin.
Steward Zhu ran out of breath, he didn't understand why he couldn't get rid of Zhou Hu and the others.
No matter how he ran or which direction he ran, he could feel the danger behind him.
Like a headless fly in the woods, he didn't even know where he was.
In the end, Steward Zhu couldn't run anymore, so he rested against the tree, and Du Wan in his arms didn't cry or make trouble.
just stared at Steward Zhu vigorously.
"Congratulations, mission accomplished. The voice suddenly rang out.
Many black shards floated down from the sky and combined to form the bat skin.
"I did it, give me the antidote. ”
"Well, that's good, tsk....... It's a pity ...... though."
The bat pursed its lips with a look of regret.
"What... What do you mean?" asked Steward Zhu.
"There is no cure for the broken ice bone palm, I lied to you. ”
The bat laughed, as if it was amusing to see the desperate expressions of others.
"You.... You, damn you, even if I die, I won't make you feel better!"
Steward Zhu raised his fists angrily, and then Du Wan fell to the ground, broke her skin, and cried.
"Yo-yo, I don't like to look at this expression. ”
The bat's laughing face became gloomy, and his clothes turned into black shards, which directly penetrated Steward Zhu's chest.
"As I said earlier, the difference in strength between you and me is like a chasm, and killing you is as simple as crushing an ant. ”
The bat leaned into Steward Zhu's ear and whispered.
After finishing speaking, he bit Steward Zhu's neck again and sucked up the blood in a big gulp.
Zhu Guan couldn't move, and his body kept spasming.
"It's disgusting, why do you drink anyone's blood, isn't it dirty?"
A pale-faced man appeared behind the bat, but he was dressed in women's clothes and had heavy powder makeup on his face.
"Flower bat, my strength is not as strong as yours, and the food is naturally more popular, like you, I only drink the blood of virgins. ”
The bat looked disdainful, but didn't look at the flower bat.
threw down the dried up Steward Zhu and picked up Du Wan on the ground.
When Hua Bat saw Du Wan, his eyes suddenly lit up.
The bat noticed the eyes of the flower bat, and said unhappily, "This girl is the sister of Doctor Du, you can suck as much as you want afterwards, but now you have to control your mouth, otherwise the adults will blame you, don't say I didn't remind you." ”
The flower bat pursed his lips and laughed quietly.
"I know the weight, hahahaha. ”
The bats dissolved into pieces and disappeared into the woods, and the flower bats turned into small white bats and disappeared into the woods as well.
Three or four minutes after they left, Zhou Hu and his party appeared here.
and found the dead Steward Zhu.
Zhou Hu squatted down and observed for a few seconds and said.
"The one who just died is the masterpiece of the Heavenly Bat Sect. ”
"General of the Heavenly Bat Sect, do you want to report it to the emperor? ”
"It must be, the Heavenly Bat Sect is strong, and it has long been eyeing the Qin State, and now it has secretly infiltrated the territory of the Qin State, and I don't know what the conspiracy is. ”
Just as Zhou Hu stood up, Du Yi and his party rushed up.
"My lord, why are you here?" Zhou Hu saw Doctor Du and felt unconsciously tightened.
"Zhou Hu, where is my sister?" Doctor Du turned over and dismounted, and saw the dead Steward Zhu.
"My lord, this is the masterpiece of the Heavenly Bat Sect, Miss I'm afraid she ......"
"What is the Heavenly Bat Sect? What will happen to my sister? Tell me!"
Doctor Du grabbed Zhou Hu's collar and said with anger on his face.
"Adult....." Xiao Tian came up and grabbed Doctor Du.
"Xiao Tian, go down!" Zhou Hu glared, and then explained to Doctor Du.
"The people in the Heavenly Bat Sect have all cultivated an evil skill, and they need to absorb people's blood to enhance their strength, so Miss, I'm afraid she's... Passed away. ”
"Impossible, my sister will be fine, Zhou Hu, didn't you say that you left a mark on Steward Zhu's body, why did he kidnap my sister?"
"My lord, the Heavenly Bat Sect secretly made a move, I made a mistake, I'm sorry. ”
Zhou Hu lowered his head, and his tone was unwilling.
"You!" Doctor Du pointed at Zhou Hu, speechless.
Doctor Du turned his head in disappointment and said angrily, "Find me, I want to see someone... Dead to see corpses!"
