Chapter 277 Will come to save us
"Master Qi." Yang Zheng rode up from behind, "I always feel something is wrong. Please get off the car first."
Qi Renli did not dare to be careless and immediately got off the carriage.
Yang Zheng asked: "Can you ride a horse?"
"Not very skilled." Qi Renli said honestly.
Yang Zheng got off his horse and said, "You ride my horse, and I'll ride in the carriage."
The two switched vehicles and continued on the road.
On Meng Changqing's side, the group had already arrived at the border of Liangzhou, "Master, next door is Luojiang County. Are you really not going to see your new master?"
"You can't go in the afternoon to deliver gifts to your door. Besides, where are you free now? Mr. Qi's situation there is unknown. He came to Liangzhou for me, and I let him mind his own business. Unless something serious happened, how could I deserve his trust? ”
Meng Changqing did not slow down her horse as she spoke. If she hadn't waited for the others, the horse would have run far away.
Chu Mufeng could see Meng Changqing's eagerness, "Don't worry, Mr. Meng. Mr. Qi is surrounded by Colonel Yang and a group of government officials. With Colonel Yang's skills, there should be no problem in protecting Mr. Qi's safety."
"It's not just Mr. Qi." Meng Changqing was riding on a horse. The sound of horse hooves was chaotic. He had to speak loudly so that the other party could hear him. "They are all people from Beishan County. I have uneasy conscience no matter who is killed or injured."
Chu Mufeng stared at Meng Changqing's back in front of him and did not look away for a long time.
They hurried to find someone, only taking two short breaks along the way. By the time they arrived outside the city, it was already late at night.
At the same time, not far from Hongfu Village, Qi Renli and his group were hiding in the bushes. Yang Zheng motioned for everyone to slow down their breathing, while he listened carefully to the movements around him. He didn't hear any suspicious sounds before he turned around. After walking away, he put his head out and looked around.
He didn't see the gangsters chasing them all the way, so to confirm, he deliberately made some noise.
Indeed no one.
Yang Zheng then carefully returned to Qi Renli, "You should get rid of him. Mr. Qi, take Qi Xiang to find a place to hide. I have to go to Hongfu Village to have a look."
"No." Qi Renli grabbed Yang Zheng, "There must be an ambush in Hongfu Village. You are still injured. How can you get out if you go rashly?
These people may have been instructed by the government. If the magistrate accepted our complaint, it would be impossible for the sufferer to live. He must have been silenced. It would be useless for you to go now. ”
"There are still our people in Hongfu Village." Yang Zheng said, "My brothers will not just surrender, they will definitely think of a way." "What way do you think of?" Qi Renli was so frightened that his nose ran down, "They still have What can be done?”
"Don't be anxious, don't be afraid." Yang Zheng comforted: "I have a hunch that Master Meng will definitely come to save us."
"Yes!" Qi Renli also thought, "We can go back to find Mr. Meng first."
"Master Qi!" Yang Zheng's voice rose slightly, "I can't possibly leave my people in Hongfu Village. How long will it take to get from here to Beishan County? I can't wait until that time.
In this way, you and Qi Xiang disguise themselves and go back to Beishan County to report the news. I will go to Hongfu Village to find other people. If possible, I want to save those old people as well. ”
"No, no, no."
As soon as Yang Zheng took a step, he was pulled back by Qi Renli.
Qi Renli finally calmed down a little, "It only takes one person to report back. Let Qi Xiang go. He knows martial arts and is smart, so I won't be a burden.
I'll go to Hongfu Village with you. " He tried to calm down his emotions, suppressed the fear in his heart, and analyzed: "Since those people want to kill me, they will definitely guard Hongfu Village if they don't find me, and they might use those suffering masters to blackmail me. Show up.
Thinking about it this way, it is very likely that the owner of the suffering has not been silenced. ”
Yang Zheng wanted to persuade again, but Qi Renli waved his hand, "I know I may drag you down, so you don't have to worry about me then. Even if I fall into their hands, they will find a way to delay Master Meng."
After saying that, he looked at Qi Xiang and said, "Go quickly. Whether we can be saved or not depends entirely on you."
Outside Dazhou City, facing the closed city gate, Meng Changqing took out a pen and paper, and with the light of the torch in Bafang's hand, he lay on the ground and started writing.
She only wrote a few words on the envelope, sealed it, and shouted toward the city wall: "The governor of Dazhou has written this, but is it in the city?"
The officers and soldiers guarding the city might pretend they didn't hear the rest of what she was shouting, and they might even scold her, but she directly called out the prefect's name. The person who came was definitely not an ordinary person, and the call at night was definitely not for an ordinary matter.
The officers and soldiers above asked: "Who is coming and what is the matter?"
Meng Changqing held up the fresh letter and replied loudly: "As entrusted by others, an urgent letter was sent from the prefect's hometown."
