Chapter Twenty-Three: The Attack on the River
"Then what should we do, we can't leave the Cheng family and run away. ”
"Am I that kind of person? I don't know how the Cheng family got into trouble with the monks, but they have solved our urgent needs, we have to help no matter what, if we really can't beat us, then run away." ”
"Is that all you have to say? ”
"So what, this is a sixth-level Qi cultivator, one accidentally may take the lives of the two of us, and it's enough for us to run away directly. ”
Of course Mu Sheng knows how to be in proportion, he is more life-saving than anyone else, and it is okay to help them as much as he can, if he is really worried about his life, he will definitely be the first to drag Wei Zigang away, but he is used to being with Wei Zigang.
The two acted separately, and quietly informed the Cheng family by using the breathing technique, and the two went to find Cheng Yi and his wife first, and after explaining the situation, they separately notified the three children of the Cheng family.
Cheng Jinzhu heard Wei Zi say that there was a night attack and she would gather in Cheng Yi's house to discuss countermeasures, although she was flustered, she still didn't forget to carry Mu Sheng's two travelogues in her arms.
After everyone gathered in Cheng Yi's room, they didn't dare to turn on the lights, so they secretly discussed countermeasures in the dark.
Cheng Yi spoke first: "I have already sent someone to observe, the river is densely packed with boats, and our boats are surrounded to death, and it is difficult to abandon the boat and escape." ”
Speaking of this, he paused slightly, "This time, I would like to thank Wei Gongzi Wei for her righteousness, I don't know how the two of you found each other?"
Mu Sheng didn't want Wei Zi to be exposed, so he arrived first: "When I got up at night, I heard some slight movements, so I took a closer look, I have practiced martial arts since I was a child, and my eyesight is far better than ordinary people." ”
Cheng Yi and the others saw that he was always holding a gorgeous sword, and only thought that he was like the fashionable young boy, who used the sword as a decoration, but they didn't think that he really had some ability, and felt that he underestimated others.
"Now that they are in danger, I am afraid that the two of them will be affected by my Cheng family, if they are lucky enough to escape and ascend to heaven, Cheng will make amends to the two of them. ”
"Uncle is polite, you are kind enough to help my brother and sister, how can it be said that it is a burden, I don't know if my uncle has a countermeasure?"
"Madam, you don't see very many people in the deep house, and the other party may not know you, and when there will be chaos, you will change into the clothes of a servant woman and blacken your face, and take Sumire Yu and Sumire Zhu to escape while the chaos, Sumire Yu Sumire Zhu and the two of you also change into the clothes of the next person, remember?"
"Dad, what about you and your eldest brother?"
"I have traveled from south to north for many years, and I don't know how many people know me, and the other party is prepared, and they must know what I look like, so I will be in charge of the merchant ship. Sumire, as the son of the Cheng family, you are always taken by my side, and this time I am willing to accompany my father to earn a ray of life for your mother and younger siblings. ”
"Dad, Sumire is duty-bound. ”
"Okay, worthy of my Cheng Yi's son. ”
"Daddy, Zhu'er won't go, Zhu'er wants to be with Daddy. ”
"Husband, concubine, concubine. ”
"Nonsense, your eldest brother and I sacrificed our lives to save your life, are you so ruined? Madam, I have handed over my two children to you, and you have to take care of them. Don't forget what I have to you. ”
explained to play with his wife and children, and then explained to Wei Zi and the others: "Your brothers and sisters are in the same place as my wife, and when the chaos occurs, you take a small boat to run ashore, this place is remote and far away from the town, and you will go into the forest after you go ashore, and it is luck to be able to escape." Wei Gongzi, you are strong in martial arts, I bother you to take care of my wife and children. ”
"Rest assured, my sister and I will take good care of them. ”
In fact, Wei Zi and the others couldn't think of a better way, the other party was numerous, and there were sixth-level Qi cultivation cultivators watching from the side, and they didn't dare to act rashly.
Otherwise, a group of ordinary robbers, no matter how many there were, the two of them didn't have to be so careful, not to mention repelling all of the other party, it would be easy to protect all the Cheng family.
Now they can only sneak with Mrs. Cheng and them, if even Mrs. Cheng and them can't protect them well, the two of them are estimated to be suffocated to death.
However, Wei Zi was a little strange, except for Sumire Shu and Sumire Zhu, the rest of the Cheng family behaved a little awkwardly. They thought that the Cheng family would not be separated to the death, but Mrs. Cheng swallowed, and Jin Yu did not have a word of objection, as if it should be so, and obeyed this arrangement without the persuasion of the two of them, maybe Cheng Yi has more prestige at home.
Cheng Yi found Xiao Si, a maid who was similar to Mrs. Cheng and them, and ordered them to change into their master's clothes and return to the room separately.
And Wei Zi and they secretly put down the boat on the boat and sat on it, at this moment the boat is still connected to the big boat with ropes, they have to wait until the chaos will be chaotic, and when there are boats all around, they will cut the ropes and mix in and run away while it is dark.
Cheng Jinzhu has been crying secretly, and was comforted by Mrs. Cheng in her arms, but it can be seen from Mrs. Cheng's slightly trembling body that she herself is also extremely scared.
Wei Zi looked at their mother and daughter and thought of their mother, if her mother was still there, would she also comfort herself so gently. It's impossible to think about it, her mother is a monk who stands up to the sky, and in her experience notes, Wei Zi can see the perseverance and tenacity of her mother's heart to seek immortals, and she can see her intelligence and wit, but she can't see the slightest weakness.
She felt that if it was her mother, she would definitely give her a slap in the face when she saw her crying and crying like this, and then said that she didn't have such a cowardly and incompetent daughter.
Wei Zi deeply felt that her mother must be such a person, and she herself seemed to prefer such a strong and fearless mother.
It didn't take long for the surrounding boats to tighten the encirclement, and some boats rowed under the big boats, and some people on board threw out the ziplines and quietly climbed up the big boats.
It didn't take long for the earth-shattering shouts to be heard from the big ship, and the chaotic footsteps, and the screams of fear stimulated the nerves of the three members of the Cheng family.
There were people on the big boat who kept jumping out of the boat to escape, and the small boats surrounding the big boat saw this and went over to round up, and the river finally became chaotic.
Their boat took the opportunity to break into the darkness of the night, and cautiously swam among the many boats.
With Wei Zi's divine sense opening the way, they went ashore smoothly and plunged into the woods.
Several people were quietly hurrying away, and Cheng Jinzhu suddenly exclaimed: "My book is gone!"
"When is it now, does it matter what broken books still have lives?" Cheng Jinyu said impatiently, he really couldn't understand what books he was doing if he was running for his life.
Cheng Jinzhu didn't say anything more, but she was also very persistent, and refused to leave without moving, and her mother's persuasion didn't work.
"Sister Cheng, what book have you lost, tell everyone, we will help you find it together, you can't freeze here, the current situation is too dangerous. ”
Cheng Jinzhu's face turned red again, and she didn't say anything. Now not only Cheng Jinyu is anxious, but Mu Sheng is also very impatient, if it weren't for her as a girl, she would want to beat people.
However, even if Cheng Jinzhu was anxious to shed tears, she refused to say what the book was.
Wei Zi suddenly realized, and asked, "But those two travelogues?"
Seeing Cheng Jinzhu nodding shyly, Wei Zi was speechless: "If it's those two books, if you lose them, you can lose them, anyway, my brother has a lot of them, and when we escape, I'll give you eight copies of ten." ”
Wei Zi was already quite dissatisfied with her performance of not being able to understand the situation when she was fleeing for her life, and she directly picked out her words, and no longer cared about Cheng Jinzhu's ashamed appearance, and beckoned everyone to run away quickly.
