He Mengxiong is a key criminal who rebelled against the imperial court, waiting to be killed. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info wants to take him out of the city, of course he can't go through the city gate. It is also necessary to wait until the night falls, and the surroundings are dark enough to cover people's eyes and ears.

But it can't be too late.

It's too late, it's time for the curfew in the city. The group hurriedly walked out, and it became a self-imposed net.

I saw that the twilight was sinking and the night was getting thicker. Ah Fu poked his head out of the gate, looked around, and then beckoned to the people waiting in the courtyard.

He Mengxiong was lying on a stretcher, his face covered with a layer of black paste.

The paste is made by the raw mother. The old woman who had been hiding in the corner, hunched over and not saying a word.

The birth mother understands medical skills, but is not good at interacting with people.

The black muddle on He Mengxiong's face, coupled with the darkness of the sky, it was difficult to recognize the true face of the person lying on the stretcher at first glance.

Of course, we must also beware of those who are extraordinarily curious and like to ask people who understand everything.

So the birth mother added something to the paste for an inexplicable reason.

That kind of thing, it smells of coaxing. It's like a piece of meat exposed to the sun, giving it the taste of maggots.

The smell can be heard clearly without getting close to that face.

With such a face, such a smell, and a few people around him, they look like their family members are urgently seeking medical treatment, even if they encounter official inspections, they will definitely be able to hide from the world.

Six degrees and nine degrees carried stretchers one after the other.

Why this strange name?

Niu Hao didn't know.

Jiang Zangjiao befriended these people, and their names are stranger than the other.

Ah Fu and Fu Sister-in-law, the birth mother, the seventh child, the sixth degree and the ninth degree. There are also two people who went out to inquire about the news, one is called Changbai and the other is called Changhei.

But Niu Hao knew that these people, without exception, were not ordinary people.

They are all spirits who have cultivated into human form and are waiting in line to enter Kongming Mountain.

Six degrees and nine degrees to carry the stretcher, Xiao Qi will pretend to be the patient's family member, and Sister-in-law Fu will disguise herself as the nanny of the family.

Niu Hao and Ah Fu will not go with them.

For an afternoon, the hemp pole did not bring anyone to the door.

This made Ah Fu feel very unsure.

Of course, the hemp stick will not let go of He Mengxiong.

For personal grudges, he spent money to bring He Mengxiong out of prison, but he didn't buy He Mengxiong's stay.

Rebellion is a serious crime, and life and death are decided by the imperial court.

So one day, the hemp pole will return He Mengxiong. If he can't hand it over, he will replace He Mengxiong and return to the prison, waiting to be beheaded.

So for a whole afternoon, the hemp pole did not show up again, not that he gave up since then. It's that he hasn't found the right person to come to the door again.

Sister-in-law Fu and her party hurried in front with lanterns. Niu Hao and Ah Fu followed from a distance.

Changbai and Changhei found the place to go out of the city in the southeast corner of Qingyang City. There is an artificial culvert that drains rainwater and sewage from the city's residents.

The culvert extends all the way out of the city, connecting a small river that eventually joins the Qingjiang River in the south.

The place where Niu Hao lives is in Xicheng. You have to pass through the entire Qingyang City to reach the place out of the city.

Adjacent to the West City, although there are many officials patrolling the streets. But there are also many pedestrians, and they are all well-dressed wealthy families. For these people, unless there is an order from above, of course, the officials who patrol the streets will not stop and investigate without trouble.

Outside the boundaries of the West Side, pedestrians on the streets became sparse.

The hour was approaching curfew. Leaving Xicheng, there are fewer and fewer rich families. Ordinary people don't have so much entertainment, and they don't dare to casually violate the curfew order, and they still wander the streets late at night.

Without pedestrians, Sister-in-law Fu and her party are particularly conspicuous. Although you can see that it is an emergency illness and goes to the doctor, the officials who pass by will inevitably take a few more looks.

Fortunately, we will soon be able to reach the southeast corner of Qingyang City and arrive at our destination.

Turning into the alley and passing through a narrow back street, you can hear the faint sound of water flowing nearby.

The culvert that flows through the city wall in the southeast corner is not deep. The half-man-high canal makes a gurgling sound under the bluestone cover.

In addition to discharging rainwater, the canals are more often used to drain the domestic sewage of urban residents.

When the bluestone cover was lifted, a foul smell instantly diffused.

Along the way, He Mengxiong's face was smeared with a layer of foul-smelling paste. It has long been smoked numb, and I can't smell what the smell is in the culvert under the bluestone cover.

But others smell it very clearly.

Xiao Qi stretched out his hand to cover his nose, frowned, and said:

"I'm not going to jump in. ”

Xiao Qi disguised himself as a family member of a patient and covered his eyes and ears on the road.

Now that her goal has been achieved, she doesn't need to jump into the culvert again.

But the six degrees and nine degrees of carrying the stretcher along the way could not escape.

"I'll go first. ”

Jiudu said, and jumped into the culvert with a pop.

By the dim light of the lantern, it was impossible to see what was going on beneath the culvert. But you don't have to look carefully to know what this kind of place will look like.

Sister-in-law Fu held the lantern and couldn't help frowning.

Although He Mengxiong could no longer smell the worse smell, he also knew what was going on with the culvert that drained the city's sewage.

He Mengxiong had a look of shame on his face, and the few people around him said:

"It's really hard work. Because of me, I caused you to follow into this kind of place, I don't know how to repay you. ”

Xiao Qi said through his tightly covered mouth:

"Well said. Just grab a few people for us and bring them back, dig out their hearts, and give us a hunger to satisfy our hunger. ”

He Mengxiong looked at Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi took away the palm covering his face, and showed a charming smile at He Mengxiong.

Sister-in-law Fu coughed lightly on the side, and said to He Mengxiong:

"Young Master He, don't take it to heart. Xiao Qi is naughty and likes to talk nonsense. Scares people too. ”

Jiudu stood up from the culvert, grabbed one end of the stretcher, and hung He Mengxiong into the culvert along with the stretcher.

He Mengxiong asked Xiao Qi:

"Is it okay for the bad guys? come back alive, dig out your heart, and give you a hunger?"

Xiao Qi looked at He Mengxiong and burst out laughing. Said:

"If people's hearts are broken, how can we eat? If we continue to eat, we are afraid that one of our own hearts will also be spoiled. ”

Seeing He Mengxiong being hung into the culvert with a stretcher, Xiao Qi showed a smile on his face, and said again:

"But you can dig out their livers and eat them, which are more tender and fatty. ”

Niu Hao and Ah Fu stood in the distance.

Xiao Qi's voice was soft, but it was clear in the quiet night.

After listening to Qier's words, Niu Hao couldn't help but turn his head and glance at Ah Fu.

Sister-in-law Fu said that Xiao Qi is naughty, and he likes to scare people with nonsense.

But is she really just joking, scaring people?
