Chapter 59: Deep Trap (1)
Near evening, the sky was getting dark, and it happened that Liu Tiandong was exhausted and on the verge of collapse, when a city made of blue bricks stood in front of him, and the official road under his feet just passed through the city.
"Why did a building appear strangely in the evening?" Liu Tiandong was not happy, but muttered in his heart, "Last time, it was around this time that Murong Hui and I entered that black shop, who knew that a city appeared in front of me this time, could it be that there would be any danger waiting for me here?"
But after thinking about it again, if you want to say that there is an article, it is impossible for the whole city to be a trap, right? If that is the case, this situation is too big! Looking at the past, the city wall is two stories high, and there are colorful flags planted on the city gate tower facing Liu Tiandong. At this time, the city gate was wide open, and there were two Qing soldiers with knives and guns standing on the left and right, and an officer and soldier walking back and forth were checking the few people and vehicles entering the city. Although it was an inspection, it was basically a show, and a few soldiers seemed lazy and lazy, and nothing unusual could be seen.
"Come into the city, the city gate will be closed in a while, and you will have to spend the night outside!" At this time, two people who were in a hurry passed by Liu Tiandong, and they heard one of them urging the other to walk a little slower.
"Looks like I'm going to have to hurry into the city, I don't want to stay in the wilderness in the dark anymore, and I can't handle it if either of the two groups catches up. ”
After a little hesitation, Liu Tiandong also followed behind those people and began to walk towards the city gate. Just now, because of the light and distance, I didn't pay much attention to the words on the city gate, and I got closer little by little, and the three big characters above the city gate gradually became clear in front of Liu Tiandong's eyes: Pingnan City.
Liu Tiandong couldn't help but think in his heart, "There really is such a county seat, it seems that Murong Hui didn't lie to me, it is estimated that there is also an old store in the He family, but I just don't know if she will be there now? Or is she not in Pingnan County at all?"
"Hey, stop!" Liu Tiandong slowly followed the flow of people in front of him to the city, while pondering in his mind, at this moment, he was suddenly awakened by a scolding.
Liu Tiandong hurriedly came back to his senses and looked closely, it turned out that it was the soldier in charge of the investigation who stopped him.
"What are you doing!" asked the soldier, glaring.
"I, I'm going to the city!" I don't know if it's because of a weak heart, or if I'm still thinking about those messy things in my head, Liu Tiandong stammered back.
However, his overly nervous performance attracted the attention of others.
"Entering the city? Do you need to be so sneaky to enter the city? Look at your kid's outfit, he is not a good person, and he said, what are you doing?" the soldier actually said "poof" and pulled out his waist knife to block in front of Liu Tiandong.
"Oops! Liu Tiandong only realized his problem at this time, originally he came out of Miao Village and wore a Miao costume, which is nothing, after all, it is located in the southwest frontier, there are many ethnic minorities, so it is not uncommon for a Miao person to appear here. It's just that he has experienced too many accidents in just two days, first encountering three guys who are not yin and yang, and then he was ambushed by the masked man Su Mingshan, and then he drilled a secret passage, and finally he was played by the strange old man...... After a set of combination punches, even Tarzan of the apes can't withstand such a toss! At this time, Liu Tiandong is not only exhausted, has reached the critical point of collapse, but also extremely embarrassed, the clothes on his body have long been torn, his arms are full of gray and black, the key is that the turban wrapped around his head does not know when it fell, Liu Tiandong's unkempt but very obvious three-seven-point hairstyle is completely exposed to the public, so it's not strange, it's strange if it doesn't attract attention?
"What should I do? I can't say that I'm a time-traveler from the future, right? But who would believe me?" Liu Tiandong was anxious, and the big drops of sweat on his forehead also dripped down his cheeks.
"Hey, what are we asking you, what the hell are you doing?" and another soldier standing guard saw that the strangely dressed fellow did not answer, and came up and scolded, while some pedestrians began to gather around from afar.
"I, I'm a businessman, I met a bandit halfway, and all the goods were robbed, and I finally saved my life and ran to Pingnan County, so I was so embarrassed. Liu Tiandong forced himself to calm down and hurriedly replied, but he didn't know if people could believe this weak answer.
Sure enough, the Qing soldier led by the leader smiled after hearing this explanation, then glared at him and shouted: "Bastard! You really treat your grandfathers as yellow-haired children? You say that you have met a bandit, and you say that you are a businessman, so you should tell me where you met the bandits, and what is the matter with your dress? If you can't answer, you just wait to suffer!"
"No, please don't get me wrong, I'm telling the truth, you asked me where I met the bandits, but I really can't say the specific location, I just know that there seems to be a big witch tomb or something, as for my clothes, I still passed by a Miao village and asked for it, and my hair......"
"Shut up!" the soldier didn't allow Liu Tiandong to explain at all, so he simply interrupted and shouted.
Then, with a wave of his hand, he said to the Qing soldiers beside him: "Brothers, tie this kid up for me!
Immediately, those guys immediately pounced, and before Liu Tiandong could react, they were crushed by several big hands.
"You, what are you doing here? I'm not a criminal, why do you want to arrest me, let me go, let me go!" Although Liu Tiandong had no strength to struggle, he was willing to obediently restrain his hands and arrest him, so he shouted at the top of his voice.
But as the saying goes, "A good man can't beat four hands, and a good tiger can't stand a pack of wolves", how could he resist such a person, any explanation is futile, and Liu Tiandong was tied up by five flowers without much effort.
"Listen to me, this thing is really wrong, I'm not a bad person, you can't arrest me, it's illegal! It's illegal!" Liu Tiandong shouted again.
"Fa? Lao Tzu is the king's Fa! He even speaks so strangely, and he says that your kid is not a bad person! Hmph, brothers, shut his mouth and hand him over to the eldest master!" I heard the officer and soldier who took the lead say with his eyes standing up and cursing.
As soon as the words of the officers and soldiers at the head fell, they saw one by one fists smashing down on Liu Tiandong's head and face, and he was tied up so strong that he couldn't move at all, so he could only bow his head and bend down to protect himself.
The raindrop-like fist of "dong dong dong" instantly pounded Liu Tiandong to the ground, only to feel the stomach turning over the river and the sea, and the sky in front of him swirling and Venus popping up, but gradually the pain on the skin and muscles became lighter and lighter, and then he could only feel that someone was still fighting, but it didn't hurt at all, and then, someone stuffed something into his mouth, and then he couldn't feel anything except darkness in front of him......
I don't know how long it took for Liu Tiandong to wake up from a burst of itching on his face and body, slowly opened his eyes, and found that he was lying on top of a pile of hay, the ropes on his hands and feet were gone, and his mouth was no longer gagged, but those injuries were transmitted from every part of his body, making it difficult for him to even turn over.
