Chapter 72
After a good night's sleep, Bo Langjun woke up early in the morning and found that Luo Jiaojiao lying next to him was missing.
"Jiang Yu!"
Bo Langjun smelled a hint of incense in the room, and his eyelids jumped uneasily.
"Master!" Jiang Yu heard Bo Langjun's call and quickly walked into the inner room to salute. He didn't see Luo Jiaojiao, and felt strange. He didn't see Luo Jiaojiao go out last night!
"Don't you know my habits?" Bo Langjun observed Jiang Yu's reaction and felt a trace of panic in his heart that he had never felt before.
"Luo Xiaoniang came back from bathing last night, holding a burner of incense in her hand. She said it was for Mr. Lang to calm his nerves!" Jiang Yu didn't dare to hide it, so he could only tell the truth!
"Go and guard outside the workshop. Be sure to keep an eye on the person who comes to deliver the message! If you don't fish him out today, you will never come back!" Bo Langjun said harshly.
"You mean Luo Xiaoniang..." Jiang Yu couldn't help but feel excited and cast his eyes towards the window of the house. The window was ajar, Jiang Yu felt a chill running down his spine and walked out of the inner room.
The sky was very nice and the wind was not very cold. Jiang Yu was hiding in the dark and monitoring his teahouse from a distance. This kind of thing had never happened before.
Two people entered the shop on the right side of the teahouse, and two more people left.
At the quarter of the hour, a servant came from North Street. He paused briefly in front of the square, looked around, then said a few words to the porter and handed him a bamboo tube.
When the man turned to leave, he did not go back in the direction he came from. Instead, he turned west and entered West Street.
Jiang Yu glanced at the man from a distance and walked directly out of the city through the streets.
There was a horse tied outside the city. The man got on his horse and galloped towards the eastern suburbs.
Jiang Yu had no choice but to run straight through the forest to follow him. Bo Langjun's words were especially loud in his ears. In fact, even if he hadn't said that, he would have fought tooth and nail to save Luo Xiaoniang!
Luo Jiaojiao was indeed plotted against. When she was guarding her husband's side last night, a dark shadow passed by the window of the house.
Luo Jiaojiao, who was very curious, gently got out of bed, walked to the window and opened it.
A dart came towards me. Luo Jiaojiao grabbed the dart.
A figure on the rooftop opposite flashed, and Luo Jiaojiao jumped out of the window and chased that person. However, she never noticed that two figures had been following her.
Luo Jiaojiao chased him to an alley on West Street and lost track of the man.
No! Only then did Luo Jiaojiao realize that she had been deceived. But she was not thinking about her own safety, but she was afraid that someone would take the opportunity to sneak into the house and murder her husband. Because she had burned the tranquilizing incense in Bao Langjun's house. If the bad guy...
Luo Jiaojiao rushed back to the tea house, but her way was blocked by someone.
"It's true that you didn't take the road that God had given you, and you stepped on it when there was no door to hell!" a bearded man shouted in a deep voice.
"Who are you? Why do you want to arrest me?" Although Luo Jiaojiao felt a little panicked, she didn't want to die in an unknown manner.
"Did you kill my brother, the bodyguard king Li San?" the bearded man shouted indignantly.
"Brother! What nonsense are you talking to her about? Just take her!" Evil words came from behind Luo Jiaojiao.
"How can I, a female prostitute, stand up to the escort king?" Luo Jiaojiao argued with a guilty conscience. Although she was not the one to kill the escort king Li San, the one who killed him must have been one of theirs.
"Brother! Catch the person first and then argue with him!" The person behind Luo Jiaojiao suddenly became angry.
Ranked fourth on the Jianghu list is Li Badao, the Huntian Hand. Although he is only in his early thirties, he has a beard. Luo Jiaojiao heard her master mention this man, who is so powerful that he can split rocks with one palm.
.
Luo Jiaojiao turned around to confront her attacker, only to find that the man had a sinister look on her face.
"The ground rat Jie Chong?" Luo Jiaojiao blurted out in shock.
"Don't hurt her!" When Li Ba Dao, the hand of Huntian, heard Luo Jiaojiao call out the name of Ground Rat, he knew that she must have some background.
Luo Jiaojiao sheathed her sword and stopped fighting. She knew very well that she was no match for either of the two, so she might as well just surrender to save herself from harm.
Li Badao and Xie Chong took Luo Jiaojiao back to their residence. They did not embarrass Luo Jiaojiao, but asked Luo Jiaojiao why she knew their names.
Luo Jiaojiao resigned from the school, and the two of them said that even if they were killed by Shan Chen in the future, they would still have to avenge the murder of their brothers!
Grudges in the world can never be explained clearly! Luo Jiaojiao stopped talking.
"Brother! The martial arts conference is coming soon. Since we accepted the message from the leader of the martial arts league, there is no reason not to go! Just send this girl to Captain Zhao! He will definitely seek justice for Li San!"
Shu Jie Chong thought of this method to avoid being chased by Shan Chen in the future.
"It's up to you! We'll send him to Captain Zhao's private house early tomorrow morning, and it'll be considered righteous!" Li Badao said after drinking a bowl of wine.
"I didn't kill him!" Luo Jiaojiao knew that if she was given to Captain Zhao, there would be no way for her to survive!
"I can use you to lure out the real murderer!" Jie Chong said the exact words of Captain Zhao. After saying this, he took off Luo Jiaojiao's veil.
"Hey! Don't break the rules!" Li Badao's words made Jie Chong retract his hand.
Anyone who wears a veil in the world must not want others to see their true face, so there was an unwritten rule at that time: if you want to see it, you must kill it first and then see it!
Luo Jiaojiao was sent to Captain Zhao's private residence by Li Badao and others when the city gate was opened at dawn. The two of them also left afterwards.
The chief of guard of Captain Zhao's private residence immediately sent people into the city to inform Captain Zhao.
Captain Zhao had to hand over the defense before he could go home to deal with private matters. Therefore, he sent someone to Donglang Tea House to deliver a message during his reign, so that he could lure Bao Langjun to his private house to solve the problem without leaving any further trouble.
Captain Zhao's plan was perfect, but he didn't expect that he met Zhou Xinqi halfway.
Zhou Xinqi received a handwritten letter from Bo Langjun, asking her to hold Captain Zhao back for half an hour after he changed his defense.
Although Zhou Xinqi didn't know Bo Langjun's intentions, he was able to send someone to deliver a letter to him in the early morning, so he must have believed that she would help him. This trust was enough for Zhou Xinqi to do anything for him.
Captain Zhao's private residence was heavily guarded at this time. The chief guard of the mansion was lingering in front of an empty house in the backyard. Luo Jiaojiao was tied to a beam in the house. Two guards with knives were guarding her.
At this time, Captain Zhao should have arrived! But his captain of the guard still didn't see anyone.
"Whoa!" A white light flashed, and the captain of the guard hurriedly stepped back and drew his sword and shouted: "Here he comes! Catch him!"
Jiang Yu stabbed the captain of the guard as fast as a sword, making the guards holding bows and arrows dare not fire their arrows.
Luo Jiaojiao in the room was anxious when she heard the noise. At this time, the two guards guarding Luo Jiaojiao were hit in the vital points by stones, and they immediately fell to the ground and died.
The rope binding Luo Jiaojiao had been cut off. Luo Jiaojiao took a closer look and saw that the person who came to save her was Zhuang Qing.
"washcloth!"
When Zhuang Qing saw Luo Jiaojiao jumping out of the window with him, he hurriedly warned her. The rule in their shop was that anyone who exposed himself while doing a task would definitely die.
Luo Jiaojiao put on her face scarf and followed Zhuang Qing around to the front door. Zhuang Qing asked Luo Jiaojiao who had seen her face. Luo Jiaojiao said that apart from the two people in the room, the only one left was the chief guard.
Upon hearing this, Zhuang Qing picked up two stones and held them in his hands. He asked the driver to kill the head guard.
"You can't kill him now, otherwise Jiang Yu will be dead!" Luo Jiaojiao had already seen the current situation clearly and tried her best to stop Zhuang Qing.
"You live or die!" Zhuang Qing knew the importance of Luo Jiaojiao in Bo Langjun's heart.
"I may not die!" Luo Jiaojiao pulled Zhuang Qing away. Zhuang Qing was dubious and flew up the wall with Luo Jiaojiao. Before he jumped down, he threw a stone at Jiang Yu's feet.
Jiang Yu and the head guard looked up and saw Luo Jiaojiao jumping off the courtyard wall with Zhuang Qing.
Luo Jiaojiao was saved? Jiang Yu was overjoyed, and when the guard captain was stunned, he pierced his abdomen with a sword.
"Shoot them!" the guard captain shouted before falling to the ground.
