Chapter 74: Don't be nosy
After Lang Mo finished speaking, without waiting for Jiang Shu's consent, he strode into the crowd of people coming and going, and his figure quickly disappeared.
Jiang Shu was not in the mood to guess any more lantern riddles, so he stood in place for a moment and decided to go to Ye Chiwan.
Dengshi Street is wide and prosperous, but it is not long, only about two miles away.
Jiang Shu walked from the westernmost part of the street to the easternmost side, but he didn't see Ye Chiwan's figure, and felt that maybe he had accidentally exposed something, so he decided to go back and look for it again.
On the way back, Jiang Shu noticed that there was a short alley six or seven steps wide on the north side of the east-west street, and guessed that Ye Chiwan might have gone there, so he walked in with his feet raised.
This alley is so narrow that there are relatively few people coming and going, and only a few red lanterns are sparsely hung, but because of the moonlight, it does not look dark.
Jiang Shu walked inside, only to find that this alley was not the dead alley she originally imagined.
At the end of the alley is a house's door, on either side of the door, a narrower alleyway that runs east and west, and the brick houses on both sides are uneven.
Jiang Shu stood in front of the door and looked at both sides, there was no figure, and Ye Chiwan may not have come here, so he turned around slowly, preparing to leave.
Before he could take a step, a man dressed in black clothes and a black scarf suddenly walked up, carrying a long knife in his hand, the blade reflected the bright moonlight, emitting a cold light.
Jiang Shu was suffocated in his heart, subconsciously took two steps back, turned around and walked towards the alleyway to the east.
But after not taking a few steps, he had to go back.
Over there, a man in black who also covered his face with a black scarf and held a long knife walked out.
Out of the instinct of seeking advantage and avoiding disadvantage, Jiang Shu turned around and walked to the west lane, but was forced back by the man in black who came from that side.
Immediately afterwards, several more black-clothed people walked out from different directions, each holding a long knife, approaching her step by step.
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
There were seven of them.
Jiang Shu knew that he had no chance of escaping at all, and seeing that they didn't make a killing move, he pretended to be calm and said, "Who are you?" What do you want to do? β
No one answered, and the seven men in black were still approaching her step by step.
Jiang Shu said again: "You dare to kidnap this girl, do you know who this girl is?" This girl is ......."
"Less nonsense!" The man in black who was the leader of them interrupted her in a cold voice, and then beckoned to the other six, "Do it!" β
Under his order, the other six black-clothed people gathered one after another and forced Jiang Shu into a small corner.
Two of them withdrew the knives in their hands and put their hands on Jiang Shu's arms, preparing to drag her away despite her struggles.
"Stop!" At this critical juncture, a loud shout suddenly came, and a snow-white figure fell rapidly from above.
"Lord Langββ!" Seeing that the person was Lang Mo who had just left not long ago, Jiang Shu immediately showed a look of surprise on his face.
Rangmo cast a comforting glance at her and turned his gaze to the two men in black who were holding him: "Let go of her!" β
"Who are you? Don't be nosy! The man in black at the head pointed at him.
"Nosy?" Lang Mo couldn't help but sneer, "Spreading wild on my territory, and dare to say that I am nosy? β
"Who are you?" The man in black at the head suddenly became a little vigilant.
Lang Mo raised his hand and took out a sign from his arms and held it to him: "Commander of the Jinyi Guard, Lang Mo." β
