Chapter 155 What’s going on?
Seeing the arrogant scene of captain Xie Chao, the nearby soldiers also looked like they were watching a good show.
Captain Jie Zhao waved to the people guarding the surrounding area and shouted loudly.
"Okay, you are all here watching, how can Mr. Zhou have the nerve to pick up leftovers from the ground like a beggar?"
"Hahahaha..."
Hearing this, several people around burst into laughter.
“Stop looking around here, go and eat quickly!”
“Okay.”
Everyone dispersed in a hurry and headed towards the fire. Run away with the pot on it.
In the prison car, Zhou Shizhao lowered his head, clenched his fists tightly, and was so angry that his whole body was trembling slightly.
Seeing this, Captain Jie looked at him with a sinister look, with a hint of success in his eyes.
Can’t stand it anymore?
Since you can’t bear it, then commit suicide as soon as possible.
Anyway, I can't escape death when I return to Beijing. If I die here, for the sake of my prosperity and wealth, maybe I will burn more paper money for you.
Thinking this in his mind, he snorted and walked slowly into the crowd.
In the prison car, after hearing what the police had just said, Zhou Shizhao's mind echoed with the curses and condemnations of the victims...
"No, it wasn't me. I didn't do those things..."
He held his head and kept mumbling with a dull expression.
Zhou Shizhao's face was full of despair as his chained hands slowly grasped the iron bars of the prison car.
He closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, tilted his head back, and was about to hit it hard.
Suddenly I heard a sound.
"Master Zhou, please don't do anything stupid."
As we approached, there was a popping sound.
At first, when they saw Captain Jie Chai, who was already prosperous and wealthy, with his lovely wife and beautiful concubine waving to him, he felt pain in his neck, and then his eyes rolled over and he fell to the ground, unconscious.
In front of him were three masked men wearing night clothes.
In the prison car, Zhou Shizhao looked confused and asked in a low voice.
“Who are you?”
Cheng Shengxuan gave a look, and Cheng Sen and the others began to pick the lock.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhou, we are here to save you."
"Save me?"
While the two were talking, Cheng Sen and others had already opened the prison van and were about to help him pry off the shackles on his hands and feet.
“No, no.”
Zhou Shizhao hid and shook his head with some resistance.
"I am a sinner. Robbery of a death row prisoner is a serious crime of decapitation. I cannot implicate you."
Cheng Shengxuan sighed and advised.
"Those traitorous officials are still at large, leaving the victims hungry, and the ragged and corrupt officials are still living in a state of dissatisfaction. Is Mr. Zhou willing to bear the stigma and die?!"
"What's more, , Even if Mr. Zhou doesn’t care about his posthumous name, what about your wife and children, General Zhou?”
Hearing this, Zhou Shizhao lowered his head.
Yes, my father has been loyal to the emperor and protected the country all his life, so he cannot be stained and stigmatized because of him.
“But, my wife and children are still in the capital...”
"Master Zhou, you can rest assured, someone has already gone to rescue you."
Cheng Shengxuan lowered his voice and shouted to Cheng Yao and the others.
"Quick! Hurry up!"
Then, he took out a package.
"Mr. Zhou, these are clean clothes, please change them quickly."
After that, he walked towards Jie Chai who was knocked unconscious, and was about to tap the man's mute point when a person next to him stopped him.
“Wait a minute.”
The man who stopped him took out a small pill from his arms.
“The sealing of the mute acupuncture point can be unlocked on its own within an hour at most. This is different.”
“This is the aphasia pill specially made by our dark pavilion poison master. Take one and it will He was completely speechless.”
After putting the pills into Jie Chai's mouth, the man took out a human skin mask and put it on him.
Putting on the tattered clothes that Zhou Shizhao had changed, he finally threw the person into the prison car and locked it.
After doing all this, several people helped Zhou Shizhao and left quietly.
Here, the well-fed and drunk officers and soldiers slowly fell asleep, and no one paid attention to the prison car.
On the other side of the woods, after bringing people to a safe place, Cheng Shengxuan and others stopped.
Zhou Shizhao bowed deeply to several people.
"Thank you young heroes for saving your life."
Cheng Shengxuan stepped forward and helped him up.
"Master Zhou, you don't have to be like this."
Hearing this, Zhou Shizhao was slightly stunned.
I hadn't noticed it before, but now I heard that this person's voice seemed familiar?
“May I ask where you want to take them with you?”
Cheng Shengxuan looked around cautiously.
"Go to a safe place, Mr. Zhou, don't worry, Mrs. Zhou and Young Master Zhou will also go there to meet you."
As he said that, he gestured to several people.
"Now is not the time to talk about this. Let's go to a safe place first."
The group continued to walk north. After leaving Ancheng, they came to a ruined temple where they temporarily settled.
Just as he was about to walk in, Cheng Shengxuan suddenly looked serious and signaled everyone to stop. After holding his breath and listening carefully, he gave Cheng Yao a look.
The two of them slowly drew out their swords and slowly pushed open the broken door with gentle steps. The moment the door was opened, a cold light flashed into their eyes under the moonlight, and Cheng Shengxuan raised his sword in front of him.
There was a "dang" sound, and a dart collided with the sword and fell to the ground.
“Who?!”
In the silent ruined temple, a slight sound of stroking hands suddenly sounded, and then a clear male voice came into the ears of several people.
"Yes, the reaction is still so sharp."
Hearing this voice, Cheng Shengxuan's tense body relaxed a little, and he reached out to press down the sword of the guard beside him.
The tone was a little helpless, but more of a surprise.
"Senior brother."
As he said this, a figure wearing a black cloak came out.
Cheng Shengxuan looked at Cheng Yao and the others.
“Take Mr. Zhou in first.”
Then the two came to a remote corner.
Cheng Shengxuan asked with surprise on his face.
"Why are senior brothers here?"
"After receiving your letter, I will rush here."
Speaking of this, Yuan Qingchen's tone Become eager.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Please tell me, how is the old lady now? There is also Master Mu and Yu An. Since you are fine, then Master and the others..."
"Senior Brother, don't worry, Grandma and the others are fine. ."
Cheng Shengxuan became depressed and his voice was sad.
"As for the uncle and father, the eldest brother took them to jump off the cliff."
Hearing this, Yuan Qingchen's scarlet eyes flashed with a trace of anger.
He patted Cheng Shengxuan on the shoulder.
“We will definitely avenge Master and the others!”
Cheng Shengxuan’s eyes were firm and he nodded heavily.
"I will definitely help the Cheng family take revenge with my own hands."
Seeing his expression, Yuan Qingchen couldn't bear it.
I'm afraid the old lady won't agree to take revenge with my own hands.
After all, Shengxuan’s identity...
Yuan Qingchen shook his head secretly.
Hey!
What is this called?
"Senior brother, senior brother?"
"Huh? What's wrong?"
Cheng Shengxuan put away his doubtful eyes.
“Senior brother, you are here, but you have something to do?”
Yuan Qingchen nodded.
"The Prince of Xiyue asked me to find Prince Kang."
Cheng Shengxuan suddenly remembered the news sent by Chu Yuan before.
“I have also received news that the national advisor Qin Shou is also secretly contacting King Kang.”
“Moreover, Qin Shou and the queen are spies from the Dongxun Kingdom.”
Hearing this, Yuan Qingchen frowned and thought deeply.
"It seems that King Kang's path is not feasible."
"I will think of another way. Okay, the guards of the Prince's Mansion are still waiting. I can't stay too long, so I'll take the first step." . ”
After that, he started his Qinggong and disappeared into the night with a few jumps.
After watching him leave, Cheng Shengxuan leaned against the big tree behind him and rubbed his painful temples.
In the past three days, they had only slept for six hours. Now that the people were rescued, their tense bodies relaxed and they felt tired.
He looked far away in the direction of the capital.
Now it’s up to Chu Yuan.
Looking at the time displayed on the screen, it’s not too late.
Remembering that he had not bothered to send a message to An Luo in the past few days, Cheng Shengxuan turned around and put his hand on the tree, pretending to write and draw on the tree, and sent a message to An Luo.
: I have been busy these days and haven’t sent any messages. Please don’t blame Miss An.
An Luo, who had just finished washing, received the news and subconsciously wanted to ask him how things went, whether he was in danger or injured.
But the moment she was about to click send, she paused.
After thinking about it, I decided to delete all that line of text.
On the other side, look at the light screen that has been displayed for a long time:
The other party is typing...
The corners of Cheng Shengxuan's mouth slowly raised, looking expectant.
What would she say?
However, the next moment, he frowned slightly, because after the ding-dong sound, only two words appeared.
An Luo: No.
Cheng Shengxuan suddenly felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart.
:Are you too tired from work recently?
This time the reply was very fast.
An Luo: Well, I’m going to sleep first.
Now, Cheng Shengxuan was even more strange.
Obviously, I was fine a few days ago. I would share with him whatever delicious food I ate and interesting things I saw every day.
Why did his tone become so harsh in just a few days?
What the hell is going on?
