MTL - To Hold One’s Joy-Chapter 476 to escape
Chapter 476 Escape
The only remaining man in black jumped out from the wide open window.
A few guards had been standing outside the window for a long time, and they immediately slashed over with long knives.
The man in black held his head in his hands, rolled over to avoid most of the attacks, jumped up and ran out with his hands on the ground.
"catch him!"
Countless guards rushed over.
The man in black dodges with difficulty, throws an object onto the wall, and climbs up the high wall by grabbing the rope.
"Don't let him run away, shoot the arrow!" Someone in the guards shouted.
Immediately, several cold bows were aimed at the man in black hanging on the wall, and countless feathered arrows flew out.
Although the man in black quickly climbed to the highest point and swung his sharp knife to block many feathered arrows, two arrows still pierced his shoulder.
After his body stiffened for a moment, the man in black turned over with all his strength and jumped out of the wall.
There is no star or moon in the sky, it is pitch black, and the snow is still falling.
There are more and more guards coming in this direction, and the lanterns flicker with the people running, and the light is getting closer.
The man in black sprinted against the corner of the wall, pulling out the two feathered arrows that had been pierced into the arrows while running.
Blood poured out, he could clearly feel the loss of physical strength, and the sound of chaotic and hurried footsteps behind him was getting closer.
A hand stretched out and dragged him into an alley.
"Come with me!"
The man in black staggered, and before he could react, he was squatted on his back by the man, and galloped in the alley.
The voices from the pursuers varied from far to near, and the man in black who was lying on the man's back spoke with difficulty: "Wu, Goro, put me down..."
Zhu Wu paused, and his voice was full of surprise: "Uncle Xing, it turned out to be you!"
He hid outside the yamen, not daring to approach or stay away, watching the reinforcements rushing over in batches, feeling extremely anxious.
But waited and waited, only to wait for one of his own people who escaped over the wall.
It turned out to be Uncle Xing!
Zhu Wu knew that he shouldn't be so happy. After all, those Suzaku guards brought by Uncle Xing were all his brothers, but who has no selfish intentions?
It's really great that uncle can escape from birth!
"Bastard, let you put me down! If we delay any longer, neither of us will be able to escape..." Uncle Xing cursed intermittently.
Zhu Wu was unmoved, but quickened his pace.
The residence has finally arrived.
Zhu Wu rushed in, locked the door from the inside, and entered the house with Uncle Xing on his back.
Compared to the icy and snowy world outside, the house with the heated kang is much warmer, and the candles on the table have not been extinguished.
Zhu Wu put Uncle Xing down, and saw his pale face and slightly closed eyes through the light.
"Uncle Xing, how are you doing?"
Uncle Xing barely opened his eyes, his lips were bloodless: "I got an arrow in my shoulder, and I got stabbed a few times..."
"Let me treat the wound for you." Zhu Wu quickly took off Uncle Xing's clothes, took out the sore medicine, clean cloth strips and spirits that he had prepared earlier, and got busy.
For Zhu Wu, this is a skill that must be mastered.
Uncle Xing's several wounds were quickly bandaged.
Zhu Wu fetched clothes for Uncle Xing to change inside and out, and stuffed all the clothes he took off into the stove.
The blood-stained clothes were swept by the flames and quickly burned to ashes.
At this time, there was a loud knock on the door outside.
Zhu Wu and Uncle Xing looked at each other, their expressions changed slightly: "So fast!"
Uncle Xing was much calmer, and urged: "Hide me in the secret room."
When the knocking on the door turned into a knocking on the door, and the sound became louder and louder, Zhu Wu opened the door with a calm expression, and asked sleepily, "Who is it?" Asked: "No, it's so late, what's the matter?"
By the light of a lantern carried by an official, one could see that another team of officials had entered another house.
The leading officer asked with a cold face: "Why did it take so long to open the door?"
Zhu Wu was aggrieved and at a loss: "Master, look at what time it is. Xiaomin is sleeping soundly. When he heard the sound, he immediately got up and dressed to open the door—"
"Follow the fugitive!" The leader officer said, pushing Zhu Wu away and striding inside.
"Master, Lord—" Zhu Wu hurriedly chased after him, "What fugitives, at the feet of the emperor, live and work in peace and contentment, why are there fugitives?"
The chief officer glanced at him and said impatiently, "Stop talking!"
In the middle of the night, do you think they are comfortable? Who doesn't want to lie down under the warm blanket.
Zhu Wu didn't dare to say any more, and stepped aside obediently.
Several officials searched inside and out, and soon came to report: "Boss, there is no one else."
The leading official looked at Zhu Wu with scrutiny: "You live here alone?"
Although this house is not big, it is in a good location. It seems that this person is not dressed like a wealthy person.
Zhu Wu squeezed out a smile: "Xiaomin lives alone."
"Is the house yours, or is it leased?"
Zhu Wu hesitated for a moment.
The leading officer narrowed his eyes: "What?"
You must know that the bloodstains scattered on the snow were traced to this area before they were broken. There is no way, the snow is too heavy tonight, and the traces left are quickly covered.
At this time, if there is even a trace of abnormality, you can't let it go, and if you are not sure, you can make a lot of credit, and you will be able to make great achievements.
"It's like this, this house is arranged for Xiaomin to live in by his boss, otherwise Xiaomin, a bookkeeper, can't afford to rent a house here."
"Your employer is—"
"Miss Luo."
The leader was almost taken aback.
Zhu Wumang added: "Xiaomin is the accountant of a restaurant, and Miss Luo is Xiaomin's owner."
The corner of the leader's mouth twitched.
Of course he knew that Miss Luo had a restaurant. Since he is the accountant of a restaurant, it must have nothing to do with what happened tonight.
The chief officer rushed to Zhu Wu and said, "Excuse me."
Zhu Wu hurriedly said: "Master, please stay and drink some hot water."
"No, we still have things to do."
Watching several officials leave, Zhu Wu closed the door and straightened his back.
Uncle Xing, who was hiding in the secret room, was picked up, looking weaker and weaker.
"gone?"
Zhu Wu nodded: "Don't worry, I sent them all away. As soon as they heard that I was Mrs. Luo's accountant, they left quickly."
Uncle Xing was silent for a moment, and smiled wryly: "I didn't expect that the secret path created by Miss Luo saved me in the end."
Thinking that when he found out that a little girl had overheard him, he had only one thought of silence.
Thinking of Luo Sheng, Zhu Wu felt a little complicated, and asked in a low tone: "Uncle Xing, those brothers—"
After a long silence, Uncle Xing finally said, "They're all dead..."
Feeling depressed for a moment, Uncle Xing's eyes lighted up again: "But this time the operation was successful!"
"Great!" Zhu Wu waved his fist.
The two looked at each other and fell silent.
They knew in their hearts that those protons were innocent, and they could only say that they were their own masters.
In their position, as long as they want to do something, blood will inevitably be shed. It could be them, it could be adversaries, it could be innocent people.
