19. White impermanence

Fortunately, this house is only separated from the street outside by a narrow alley, and Lu Tianhong slid down with too much momentum, flew directly outside the wall, and sat on the snowdrift.

"The thief got out there!"

Someone shouted.

On the street, the north wind swept the ground, the residual snow was flying, Lu Tianhong couldn't care much, bowed his head and turned into a dark alley on the side of the street. The white shadow flashed behind him, and Lin Chengyu had also chased out.

"Where did this dog thief go?"

Lin Chengyu jumped up to the height again, looked around, but didn't see Lu Tianhong's shadow.

Of course she didn't know that Lu Tianhong was hiding under a beam not far away, but it was too dark and there were no lights, so she couldn't see it at all.

Under the night sky, a cold wind blew, and Lin Chengyu couldn't help but shudder. I was in too much of a hurry just now, and I didn't have time to put on thick clothes, so I felt cold at this moment. At this time, the housekeeper Lin Er and all the house slaves had arrived and reported to her.

"Miss, I have sent someone to inform the garrison, and immediately mobilize the whole city to arrest the thief, he will definitely not be able to escape. Lin Er instructed everyone to chase after each other, and then said, "Miss, the master has ordered, just leave such trivial matters to the little ones." On this cold day, don't freeze your body. ”

Lin Chengyu nodded, tonight is already messy enough, she still has to go and see her mother's side.

"If you let them search carefully and catch that thief, I will have a heavy reward!"

After that, Lin Chengyu flew up from the house and floated back to the Lin Mansion.

Lu Tianhong saw her leave and breathed a sigh of relief. A group of housekeepers came with torches, and he did not dare to delay any longer, so he flew up to the house again and rushed towards the city wall.

In Yueyang City, people shouted and neighed horses, the whole city soldiers and horses had been mobilized, and groups of soldiers were called up from the bed, all scolding and scolding, crossing knives and guns, picking up lamps and smashing doors, and the city was in chaos.

At this time, Lu Tianhong had already arrived under the city wall, and when he looked up, the city wall was about four zhang high, and the pine oil torches on it were as bright as day, and there were soldiers patrolling from time to time.

Lu Tianhong looked at the city wall and found that it was all frozen, very smooth, and he couldn't go up at all. Looking around again, he found that there was a big tree hugged by three people not far from the city wall, Lu Tianhong was overjoyed, and rushed to the tree in three or two steps and jumped up. As soon as he went up, a troop of horsemen galloped up, grabbed the reins under the tree, and the officer at the head shouted with his whip:

"Grandma is a bear, and she won't let Lao Tzu sleep well in the middle of the night, and when she catches that little thief, she will have to pick his skin!"

"Big brother, you said that this Lord Lin is true, for a thief who doesn't know where he came from, he has to call everyone up, in the middle of the night, he is freezing to death, where can he arrest people?" a cavalryman behind him complained.

The other took over and said:

"Don't you know, it is said that it is the order passed by the eldest lady of the Lin family, and our brothers still have to listen to a girl, what a wreck!"

The officer turned around and scolded:

"Don't say anything, people are the daughters of the adults, and the apprentices of today's great teachers. ”

"Hey, big brother, I heard that this Miss Lin looks like a thief, is it true?"

"Haha, what are you thinking? I don't want to live anymore! Hurry up and arrest someone!"

The officer laughed evilly, whipped the soldier, and led the people to the city gate again.

Lu Tianhong hid in the tree, watched them go away, climbed up along the branches for a while, looked not far from the city wall, and jumped on the city wall with his right leg. Not long after the patrolling soldiers passed, Lu Tianhong looked down at the city and couldn't help but be a little stunned. The moat under the city is about ten zhang wide, covered with a thick layer of snow, and I don't know if it freezes.

Lu Tianhong was hesitating to jump down, and with a "whoosh" arrow sound, a cold arrow flew past his ear, which bounced off the wall battlement and fell, startling him into a cold sweat. Lu Tianhong touched his neck, followed the sound of arrows and looked back, it turned out that a soldier on the arrow tower found him, shot an arrow first, and then rang the bang to warn.

When Lu Tianhong heard the sound of the bang, his heart was not good, and when he saw that the soldier was taking a bow again, he didn't think much about it, he turned over the battlement of the city wall, and jumped down.

"I wish the river was frozen!"

Lu Tianhong fell to the edge of the moat, and stepped on it a few times silently in his heart, and the surface of the river was really frozen, and it was very thick.

"Whoosh!"

A few more arrows were shot not far away, Lu Tianhong didn't dare to slack off, stepped on the snow and quickly crossed the moat, only to hear someone shouting at the head of the city behind:

"The thieves are out of town, let go of the drawbridge!"

Lu Tianhong listened, plunged into the vast night, and went straight to Dongting Lake.

After running for more than 30 miles, he arrived at Dongting Lake in one breath, and Lu Tianhong stopped his footsteps, and only then did he breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that the pursuers behind him had not caught up. It was fine to run just now, but now that he relaxed, the pain in his chest suddenly increased tenfold, making him unbearable.

"Lin Chengyu, you wait, one day, I will definitely let you double it back!"

Lu Tianhong said with hatred in his heart, and looked up to find Feng Yi's boat.

Dongting Lake at night is terrifyingly quiet. The moonlight shines on the surface of the lake, and the waterways lead to the depths of the lake, and the cold light flickers faintly, and the white snow reflects each other, making it more and more cold.

"Brother Feng!"

Lu Tianhong remembered that the place was good, but he didn't see the boat, so he shouted twice.

No one responded.

Lu Tianhong wondered in his heart, and walked a few steps along the lake, looking carefully.

Reflected in the moonlight, the silhouette of a small fishing boat emerged, lying quietly at the water's edge. Lu Tianhong breathed a sigh of relief and walked over quickly.

"This man must have fallen asleep. ”

Lu Tianhong thought, walked to the side of the boat, and called Feng Yi's name twice.

Still no one responded.

"Sleep so hard!"

He felt strange and was about to jump into the boat. Suddenly, on the bow of the ship, two green flames lit up. Immediately afterwards, a burst of green smoke and white fog rose from the flat ground, and I don't know from nowhere, five or six people suddenly appeared, and the half-moon shape surrounded him.

"Lu Tianhong, where are you going?"

The voice was grim and cold, but also somewhat familiar. Lu Tianhong was so frightened that he hurriedly retreated, "Feng Yi really betrayed me?" He was shocked and raised his eyes to take a closer look.

Directly opposite stood tall in a miserable white robe. It's not so much how tall the man is, it's that the hat on his head is three feet tall. On the head, of course, it looks tall. The man's face was also pale and miserable, with a pair of eyes glowing green, scarlet lips, and a mouth that showed oozing fangs.

This guy is Bai Wuchang, who is under Yueyang City God, Bai Na.

Since Jiang Tianguan ordered the arrest of Lu Tianhong, Chenghuang Du Wan sent all his subordinates out, not only that, but also recruited all the wandering spirits and wild ghosts from all walks of life, so that they could inquire about the news and find Lu Tianhong, and there would be a heavy reward!

It was a little ghost by the lake who saw Lu Tianhong on Feng Yi's boat and reported to Bai Na, who was patrolling here.
