Chapter 49: Bound and Escaped
As soon as the two stepped into the courtyard, they were knocked unconscious.
"Oh, two silly girls." The man put the fan on his heart, and the hanging silk swayed gently.
"Master Xin, what to do with them?"
"Tied up and locked up in the firewood room."
"Yes." The subordinate lifted Ji Qingkite and Qingzhu.
When Ji Qingyuan woke up, she was tied to the firewood room with Qingzhu, with a thick layer of straw under her, she turned her head to look at her bound hands, and the thick rope knot was strong and sturdy a few times, and finally tied a dead knot.
"Green bamboo, green bamboo." Ji Qingyuan moved his body to hit Qingzhu. "Qingzhu, wake up."
"Little, miss." Qingzhu opened his eyes with difficulty, dizzy.
Ji Qingyuan exhaled: "Fortunately, you're fine." ”
Qingzhu said softly: "Miss, where is this?" ”
"Looks like they're where they're holding us." Ji Qingyuan looked around, the firewood room was not big, in addition to firewood straw and textile racks, there was also a table and four chairs. A candle sits in the corner of the table, and the faint light flickers in the breeze.
"Why do you want to lock us up, is it ......?"
"It shouldn't be Ji Xiang, if he really wants to catch us, he won't use such a bad way. Qingzhu I'm sorry, I've bothered you, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be locked up here. Ji Qingyuan lowered his head and sighed.
"Miss doesn't have to blame herself, Qingzhu followed Miss voluntarily, don't blame Miss." Qingzhu also lowered his head, "It's just that something happened to Qingzhu, what should my mother do, I hope the master will treat her well." ”
"Don't be discouraged, there is no endless road, we will definitely be able to think of a way out." Calm down, Ji Qingyuan, you will definitely be able to figure out a way.
"Miss, Qingzhu has a way." Qingzhu tugged at the corners of his mouth.
Ji Qingyuan shouted: "Why do you look like you want to be heroic and righteous, what can you do?" Don't do anything stupid. ”
"Miss, don't worry." Qingzhu took advantage of Ji Qingyuan to reluctantly stand up and walk towards the candle on the table.
"Green Bamboo!" Ji Qingyuan reacted that Qingzhu wanted to use the candle flame to burn the rope on his hand.
"Qingzhu won't hurt herself, don't worry, Miss." Qingzhu turned his back to the candle and raised his hands to place it on top of the candle, and the faint flame burned little by little.
"Not yet?"
"This rope is specially tied to people, and ordinary people can't cut it at once even with a knife."
"You seem to know a lot?" Ji Qingyuan propped his hands on the straw pile and climbed up along the wall a little bit.
"Miss, be careful."
"It's fine." Ji Qingyuan walked to the table. "It's going to break."
After a rope was burned, Qingzhu stretched the thick rope hard, "Don't break it, I'll untie it for you." ”
Ji Qingyuan went to untie Qingzhu's rope with his hands behind his back.
Qingzhu rubbed his wrist to untie Ji Qingkite's rope, but he couldn't untie the dead knot.
"Don't worry, take your time, if you can't burn it with a candle."
"Miss, bear with it, it will be hot." Qingzhu couldn't carefully pick up the candlestick and burn the thick rope.
"I can bear it, quickly."
As soon as Ji Qingyuan untied her hand, she immediately checked whether her hand was burned, and it was indeed hot in the process of burning the rope, so in order to escape, she gritted her teeth and endured it.
"Does Miss hurt?"
"It's okay, let's go." Before the two of them reached the door, the sound of heavy footsteps mixed with the sound of keys striking came from far and near.
Ji Qingyuan's eyes rolled: "Take the stool, wait for him to step in and hit him on the head." ”
"Hmm." The two of them lifted wooden stools and stood on either side of the door.
The caretaker was a bloated middle-aged man with a flask in his hand, just in time to be slightly drunk.
The key entered the hole, and the caretaker pushed open the door, and the two picked up the stool and smashed it at the caretaker, who was beaten and fell to the ground, and the wine jug fell.
"Green bamboo." Ji Qingyuan threw down the stool and ran out.
Although the caretaker was hit in the head, he also woke up a little drunk, and when he touched his forehead, his hands were covered with blood. "Stinky, dare to hit Lao Tzu."
"Miss, he's catching up." The two were unable to find a way out in the courtyard, and they didn't want the caretaker to stumble out of the firewood room.
Ji Qingyuan was anxious, the courtyard was in a quadruple shape, and there were two doors on each side: "What should I do?" ”
"Miss, you go quickly, Qingzhu is stopping him." Seeing the caretaker approaching the two, Qingzhu pushed Ji Qingyuan into one of the doors.
"How could I leave you behind." Ji Qingyuan stepped forward, and was pushed into the door by Qingzhu, and the door was closed.
"Find the phoenix owl to save me." Her voice disappeared behind the door.
Ji Qingyuan clenched his fists, his nails embedded in his palms. Walking through this door and entering the back hall of the front hall, it is the dining place of the Yanqing Building, and the sound of silk and bamboo accompanied by the sound of laughter came into her ears, and she thought that she should be in the Qinglou. Ji Qingyuan sorted out his clothes for himself and walked in front of the food servants calmly.
A few of the little guys couldn't help but glance at her a few more times. Compared with the girl in the Flame Building, Ji Qingyuan dressed conservatively, and the places that should be exposed were not exposed at all.
What is the place of Yanqing Building, the biggest fireworks place in Jiangcheng, there are female prostitutes, there are male prostitutes, it is rumored that the owner of Yanqing Building is somewhat involved with the royal family of Jiangcheng, so that Yanqing Lou walks sideways in Jiangcheng, and it is normal to do some trivial things like stealing chickens and touching dogs. The captive girl had no other way but to accept her fate. There are all kinds of people who come to the flame building, men, women and children, high-ranking officials and nobles.
"What to see, I can also be seen by you, is Lord Li's meal ready on the second floor, he has been waiting for the time of four teas, how to do things, if you don't have a quick hand and feet, I will ask my mother to get rid of you." Ji Qingyuan pretended to be a little bit, and the little guy was also a person who was often beaten and scolded with his own servility, so he lowered his head one after another.
When there are more people, there are naturally more needs, and if you can afford to give silver, you can meet the corresponding needs. Seeing Ji Qingyuan's arrogant appearance, the little girl only said which new girl coaxed those who were officials to be happy and made them angry.
Ji Qingyuan walked into the front hall with her head held high, fortunately she had also visited the Qinglou in Lancheng, and she was not so unfamiliar with the Qinglou, so she left and ran to the inn quickly after finding the door.
"Feng Yu, Huang Xiao......" Ji Qingyuan shouted as he ran, panting heavily.
"Young lady?" The phoenix on the second floor flew down when he heard this.
Ji Qingyuan hugged Feng Yu's arm and gasped: "Quick, go and inform Wei Junyi and Baili Lian, Dump Mo has been arrested." ”
"Where?"
"Yun'an Casino."
"Yes." Feng Yu nodded and left.
"Huang Xiao, you go with me to save Qingzhu."
"Something happened to Qingzhu." The phoenix, who has always been paralyzed, showed a worried look for the first time.
"On the way, I said, go and save her, I'm afraid it's too late......" Ji Qingyuan wiped the tears that kept falling.
Qingzhu picked up the broom on the side and protected it in front of her, and she tried her best to buy time for Ji Qingyuan to escape.
"Hmph, run, why don't you run?" The caretaker's face showed a fierce light, and he approached step by step.
"Miss is the young lady of Lancheng, you caught her and didn't have any good fruit to eat."
"The young lady of Arashi? Phew! The caretaker took a sip, "This is Jiang Cheng, Lao Tzu's territory." If I don't give you some color, I dare to mix in the Flame Building! ”
The caretaker pounced, and Qingzhu took the broom and hit him with all his might. The caretaker grabbed the broom ear, and the green bamboo pulled the broom handle, and most of the women's strength could not win the man.
The caretaker shook his hand, and Qingzhu was thrown to the ground, and she stepped back with her hands and feet.
