Chapter 258: Those People, That People.
The baby's cry spread far away, hearing the baby's cry, Zhao Sanhan, who had just returned to the backyard of the Lu Mansion from Su Qin's residence to guard the door, frowned, he thought that someone was holding the child and passing by the back door, but after a while, the baby's cry did not show the slightest sign of abating, but became louder and louder, and the voice became more and more worrying.
Looking up at the blazing sun, muttering a curse in his mouth What is the name of the soul at noon, Zhao Sanhan walked out of his hut, and came to the back door to pull the door bolt open Zhao Sanhan stretched out his head, he wanted to see whose child was so uncomfortable.
But he didn't see the crying baby, but he saw a scene that made him unbelievable, as Zhao Sanhan poked his head out, a strange and bloody picture appeared in front of him, the first thing that caught Zhao Sanhan's eyes was a young man with a different head, the young man was holding a spear in his hand, and his bloody head was half a foot away from his body, and his dead eyes were staring in the direction of Zhao Sanhan.
Zhao Sanhan thought he was dazzled, he stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, he looked at it again, but was frightened, because Zhao Sanhan not only saw the young man with a different head, but also saw two little legs standing quietly on the ground - only legs, no one on it.
shouted my mother, Zhao Sanhan, who had goosebumps all over his body, slammed the door shut with both hands.
After closing the door, Zhao Sanhan turned his back to the wooden door and slowly slid down, leaning on the wooden door, he wiped the cold sweat on his forehead while panting, chanting Buddha bless Buddha bless.
But the Buddha did not manifest himself.
After closing his eyes and shouting a few words, Zhao Sanhan wanted to struggle to get up and go to the front yard to find a housekeeper to report the situation here, but his legs and feet were not under Zhao Sanhan's own control - at this moment, Zhao Sanhan's mind was full of the bloody head and the topless feet.
Zhao Sanhan kept patting his thighs with both hands, trying to regain consciousness in his trembling legs, but it backfired, after seeing that his legs were still unable to stand, Zhao Sanhan began to grope around his body with both hands, he didn't want to be empty-handed, Zhao Sanhan felt that he could only feel at ease by grasping things with both hands.
For people who are drowning, perhaps a straw can ignite their desire for life.
And for people who are panicking, even holding a stone in their hand can make them feel like they have something to rely on.
It's just that the straw can't save people, and relying on it will sooner or later have a day of loss.
Where is there anything to hold in his hand at the door of the backyard that is cleaned every day, not even a stone, Zhao Sanhan groped for a moment, and he finally calmed down slowly without finding anything, just when Zhao Sanhan stabilized his mind a little, covering his heart with one hand and pulling the wooden frame on the wooden door with the other hand to get ready.
There was a knock outside the wooden door.
At the same time, the cry of a child was heard.
The knock on the door was like lightning striking Zhao Sanhan's chest.
In the ordinary baby's cry, Zhao Sanhan at this moment sounded like a ghost crying wolf.
Holding the child in his arms, looking at the wooden door that did not move, Du Linlou waited quietly.
"Yes...... Who?" asked Zhao Sanhan, leaning against the door with his body.
"Du Linlou. Du Linlou replied quietly, "Hurry up and open the door, I have something to explain." ”
Zhao Sanhan, who heard this name, felt that he had heard this name there and was somewhat familiar, but he didn't dare to open the door because he was afraid of a fierce killer rushing in.
Seeing that the person behind the door did not react, Du Linlou frowned, and then with a slight force in his hand, a force that Zhao Sanhan couldn't resist came from the wooden door.
Zhao Sanhan was hit by the force, and his body fell to the ground with a stumble.
Looking at Du Linlou standing in front of the door, Zhao Sanhan's eyes were full of horror, he didn't know what Du Linlou was going to do next.
"You can help me take a look at this kid first. Du Linlou didn't do anything to Zhao Sanhan, glanced at the child in his hand, Du Linlou said to Zhao Sanhan, after saying this, Du Linlou looked at the pale Zhao Sanhan and smiled slightly, "I know you, you are Zhao Sanhan, I know Su Qin, so you don't have to be afraid that I will hurt you." ”
Hearing Du Linlou's words, Zhao Sanhan finally broke free from his panic, he got up from the ground and looked at Du Linlou, didn't say anything, and stepped forward to take the child in Du Linlou's hand -- in Zhao Sanhan's opinion, since this Du Linlou knew Su Qin, he was Su Qin's friend, what kind of person was Su Qin? Anyway, he was not a vicious person, so the person in front of him might not really hurt himself.
"Forget all about what you just saw, or it won't do you any good. After handing over the child to Zhao Sanhan, Du Linlou turned around and walked outside, took two steps, Du Linlou turned back to Zhao Sanhan and said, after saying this, Du Linlou saw Zhao Sanhan nodding non-stop, so he smiled slightly, and closed the back door of the Lu Mansion casually, "Hold the child and wait for me here." ”
Looking down at the child in his arms, he recalled Du Linlou's advice when he left, Zhao Sanhan was a little like falling into the clouds, he didn't know what was going on outside, he patted the child in his arms with one hand to prevent the child from continuing to cry, and slowly walked towards the wooden door - since there was no life safety, Zhao Sanhan, who was curious, wanted to see through the crack in the door to see what was going on outside.
The sound of iron hooves came, causing the earth to shake a little, and with the neighing of horses, Zhao Sanhan soon vaguely saw some heavily armed Qilin Army soldiers.
Looking at the Qilin Road that suddenly appeared, Zhao Sanhan finally remembered who this young man named Du Linlou was, wasn't he the one who had just served as the commander of the Qilin Army and the Leopard Army that was rumored these days, thinking of this, Zhao Sanhan looked outside with wide eyes, but the door gap was too narrow, how could he see clearly?
But Zhao Sanhan did not give up observing the movement outside - not everyone has a chance to look at the Qilin Army at such a close distance, and Zhao Sanhan also wants to know who those who died and why did they die here?
The soldiers of the Kirin Army walked back and forth, as if cleaning up something.
But after a stick of incense, the outside was quiet again.
As the sound of iron hooves went away, Zhao Sanhan saw Du Linlou walking over from the crack in the door.
Zhao Sanhan's body took a few steps back, pretending to comfort the baby in his arms, and he looked at the scenery in the backyard that he had already seen.
The door was pushed open by Du Linlou.
"If someone asks about what happened outside, you just say you don't know, otherwise ......" Taking the child from Zhao Sanhan's arms, Du Linlou looked at Zhao Sanhan and said, otherwise although Du Linlou didn't say anything, Zhao Sanhan felt a trace of killing intent from the sneer that pulled out of the corner of Du Linlou's mouth.
"I don't know anything, I'm still asleep in my cabin. After saying this, Zhao Sanhan saw Du Linlou turn around and leave, and when he stepped forward to close the wooden door, he quickly ran to the hut where he lived - even if he couldn't sleep, Zhao Sanhan knew that he had to pretend to be asleep, because the arrival of the Qilin Army would definitely alert the people of the Lu Mansion, and if they found out that the Qilin Army was here when he came, he was afraid that he would not be able to stay in the Lu Mansion again if he didn't say something.
Zhao Sanhan, who returned to his hut, of course didn't know what happened after Du Linlou left-the Qilin Army that appeared outside the Lu Mansion made many people living in Lihuo City feel frightened and uneasy, because they lived in Lihuo City and rarely saw the shadow of the Qilin Army in the daytime, and now hundreds of Qilin troops in full armor were riding horses and whipping with Xiao Slain, and many people thought that something big was about to happen.
However, this group of unicorn troops came and went quickly, the only difference from when they came was that some of the unicorn army's horses were lying on their horses, and there were six of them, large and small, I don't know what they were.
Curious people began to rush to the last place where the Qilin Army stayed.
It was the gate of the backyard of the Lu Mansion.
There was no one on the long street outside the back door of the Lu Mansion, the ground was clean, and it was the same as usual, not to mention a person, not even a bird with flapping wings.
Only unknown insects kept screaming at the base of the wall.
The onlookers looked at the long street, looked at each other, and saw the confusion in each other's eyes, they really couldn't understand why the Qilin Army appeared here, except for some water stains on the ground and a little bad smell in the air, there was nothing suspicious here, just like those courtyards that they had to clean every day, it was ordinary.
Soon news came, which made everyone a little stunned, but after the sudden confusion, they were full of puzzlement.
The news is that a child was abducted, and then the Kirin Army was recovered.
When they heard the news, they learned that the Kirin Army had come here to look for the kidnapped child...... But how could a child who didn't know each other be able to send so many people out of such a big mind?
Although some people thought that this might be an excuse, no one dared to ask what the truth was, and they slowly felt bored and slowly dispersed.
Of course, Du Linlou didn't pay attention to the thoughts of these city citizens, just like he killed the disguised woman in the end, he didn't think about what he could ask from the mouths of these dead soldiers, just like he didn't care what these city citizens would say about his Qilin Army.
After handing over the child to his subordinates to find the parents of the lost child, Du Linlou came to the gate of the front yard of the Lu Mansion.
Looking at the three big characters of Lingbifang written on the plaque on the Lu Mansion, Du Linlou smiled slightly, because he felt that fate was too elusive, just like when he left here yesterday, he thought that he would not come here again in the future, but he didn't expect that in less than a day, he would come to this familiar plaque again.
Seeing Du Linlou appear at the door, the servant who watched the door in front of him even if he didn't know this face had heard the legendary story of the boy holding his left hand these days, so without waiting for Du Linlou to speak, someone else led the way in front, and the fast one had already taken the lead to inform Du Linlou's arrival.
"What is he doing here now?" Lu Zhenyu, who was in the hall, heard the report of the next person, frowned, put down a half-read book about strange flowers and plants, Lu Zhenyu got up and walked towards the door - Lu Zhenyu had heard that the Qilin Army appeared nearby, but Lu Zhenyu didn't take it to heart, and now the appearance of Du Linlou made Lu Zhenyu a little puzzled, could it be that the appearance of the Qilin Army is related to the Lu Mansion?
"General Du, come in quickly. Looking at Du Linlou, who had come to the door, Lu Zhenyu said with a smile on his face.
"No need. Looking at Lu Zhenyu with a smile on his face, Du Linlou shook his head gently, "I'm here to say a few words to the shopkeeper Lu." ”
"So urgent?" Seeing that he didn't mean to walk into the hall, Lu Zhenyu frowned, but was quickly relieved, "General Du has a lot of opportunities, if you have something to say, I will listen to you." ”
"Just now on the road, I met Su Qin and Su Gongzi in your mansion, and after chatting a few words, I felt that I was very fated to meet each other, so I was going to let him go to my mansion for a day or two......" Speaking of this, Du Linlou paused, "I came here to say to the shopkeeper Lu, I am afraid that Su Gongzi will not come back today." ”
"That's why. Lu Zhenyu looked at Du Linlou and said with a smile, and his words changed after speaking, "It is his blessing that Su Gongzi can make friends with General Du, but General Du, Su Qin is my closed disciple, since you want to keep him for a few days, don't blame me for not relying on me if you don't send him back when the time comes!"
"Please rest assured that this shopkeeper Lu. Du Linlou looked at Lu Zhenyu, and there was a little more question in his heart, why did Lu Zhenyu value Su Qin so much? But after thinking about it, Du Linlou didn't show any suspicion on his face, "If the shopkeeper Lu has nothing to do, I'll leave first." ”
Seeing Du Linlou say this, Lu Zhenyu nodded, and didn't say anything more, just called someone to send Du Linlou away, watching Du Linlou leave, Lu Zhenyu frowned and looked at a bright cherry blossom in the courtyard, and couldn't help but lose his mind a little - Wang Ruhua looked for Su Qin, Du Linlou looked for Su Qin, could it be that Su Qin was really related to that person many years ago as he guessed?
Thinking of this, Lu Zhenyu had a little more worry on his face, but thinking of what he said to Su Qin in the morning, Lu Zhenyu now didn't know whether to ask someone about Su Qin's life experience.
What Lu Zhenyu was thinking Du Linlou didn't know, when he left the Lu Mansion, he looked back at the Lu Mansion, like Lu Zhenyu, Du Linlou also had some worries in his heart, but Du Linlou's worries were worried about Su Qin's life and death.
Du Linlou didn't know if Su Qin could carry it this time, if Su Qin died, then the agreement between himself and that person would ...... Can it be taken seriously?
