PFC Chapter 140 Night Attack
Chapter 140 Night Attack
Li Lanzhen was very disappointed, but she still had to solve the accommodation problem for the two of them. She couldn't just hang around the streets.
In this way, the patrolling officers and soldiers would arrest them as dangerous elements.
Li Lanzhen took Xue Bao and continued walking towards the entrance of the alley, preparing to enter the courtyard and take a look.
They stood outside the courtyard wall and looked inside. It was still dark inside and the gate was still locked.
Li Lanzhen said to Xue Bao, "I'll go in first and take a look, and you can come in later!"
Xue Bao wanted to go in first, as he was afraid there might be danger inside and that he might hurt Li Lanzhen.
Li Lanzhen stopped her because she didn't want the snow leopard to get hurt.
If there was a dangerous situation in the yard, she would enter the space to hide, but Xue Bao had no choice but to face it and bear the danger, which was what Li Lanzhen did not want to see.
Li Lanzhen supported herself on the courtyard wall with both hands, jumped up, and went inside the courtyard wall.
She stood under the courtyard wall and did not rush into the room in the yard. She looked around first and observed the yard and several houses.
When he found that there was no movement, he whispered to Xue Bao who was standing outside the yard, "Xue Bao, come in."
Two people entered the yard and slowly approached the main room.
The main room door was still unlocked.
Li Lanzhen pushed the door open, turned on the flashlight, looked around the room, and saw a layer of dust on the table!
It seems that the owner of this yard has not returned yet.
Li Lanzhen entered the bedroom again and saw that the bed was still covered with the same straw mat. She reached out and touched it, and found a layer of dust on it as well.
She whispered, "Xue Bao, it seems that this family has not returned yet. Let's rest here tonight. We will go out before dawn tomorrow and go to the market to get information."
Xue Bao agreed, and he rummaged through the backpack, took out a piece of cloth from it, and prepared to wipe the kang mat.
Li Lanzhen stopped him and said, "Wait a moment, I'll come and wipe it. A dry cloth can't wipe it clean. You can look around the yard."
After Xue Bao left, Li Lanzhen brought out a basin of water, wet it with a piece of cloth, and quickly wiped the table, stools and kang mat. She put away the basin of water, took out two sheets from the space, and placed them on the kang mat.
When Xue Bao came in, he saw that the table and the kang mat were wiped clean, and there were two sheets on the kang mat. He didn't think much about it.
Li Lanzhen looked at Xue Bao and said, "Go to bed quickly. Go to bed early and get up early. Tomorrow we will look around the streets and ask around to see if we can find any news about Han Mingxiang and the other person."
Xue Bao looked at the worried Li Lanzhen and comforted her, "Aunt Lanzhen, don't be too worried. Third brother is smart and will be fine.
Besides, you have already told him to come to Youzhou, I believe they will definitely come to Youzhou."
Li Lanzhen said noncommittally, "I hope so."
Xue Bao took off his shoes, lay down at the other end of the kang, and covered himself with the bed sheet that Li Lanzhen threw over him.
He felt that his feet smelled bad and was afraid that they would stink Li Lanzhen, so he leaned against the wall.
Li Lanzhen felt amused when she saw his appearance. What a kid, his feet are really stinky!
After both of them lay down, Xue Bao asked.
"Aunt Lanzhen, did you hear what they said? The person who is in charge of this place now is also surnamed Su, and he is the emperor's brother-in-law."
After a while, he asked again.
"Aunt Lanzhen, tell me, is Su Chen related to them? And what is Linglong's relationship with the emperor?"
Li Lanzhen was silent for a while, thinking that it would be okay to tell Xue Bao.
"I guess that Su Chen should be related to the queen, and Linglong should be the emperor's daughter!"
Xue Bao was so shocked that he sat up suddenly!
"What? Aunt Lan Zhen, you said Linglong is actually a princess?!"
Li Lanzhen rolled her eyes in the dark.
"You're so startled! Lie down quickly! What are you shouting about? Are you afraid that others can't hear you? There's someone in the room!"
Xue Bao chuckled and lay down.
"Everything is possible. When the situation is unclear, let's pretend we don't know." Li Lanzhen said in a low voice.
Xue Bao nodded, and then said, "Oh, I see."
Both of them fell asleep in silence.
At some point, Li Lanzhen was suddenly awakened by a "thump" sound!
Xue Bao also sat up immediately and whispered, "Aunt Lan Zhen, someone entered the courtyard wall. It should be one person, and he should be injured."
Li Lanzhen immediately took out an electric baton from the space and handed it to Xue Bao.
"Here, an electric baton. You should know how to use it. Wait a minute, then use full power to kill him. Then use the knife to cut him. Be careful and don't let him cut you."
Xue Bao agreed, Li Lanzhen folded up the bed sheets, and the two of them, holding electric batons in one hand and machetes in the other, got off the kang and stood on both sides of the main door.
The people in the yard stumbled to the door of the main room.
Li Lanzhen and Xue Bao at the door of the main hall also became highly alert, ready to give him a blow on the head as soon as he pushed the door open.
But before they could make any move, suddenly, there was a loud noise outside and flames appeared everywhere!
Xue Bao took a look through the crack in the door and said to Li Lanzhen in horror.
"Aunt Lanzhen, we are in trouble. It seems that soldiers have surrounded this place. They are holding torches and bows and arrows. They must be here to capture the person who just jumped into the yard."
As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open and a dark figure came in immediately.
Xue Bao raised his knife to chop, but unexpectedly the man fell to the ground with a thump.
The two men looked down in the light of the fire outside the courtyard wall and saw that the man was dressed in black, with a black scarf covering his face, and a long sword tightly grasped in his hand.
At this time, his eyes were closed and he lay on the ground motionless.
Li Lanzhen wanted to curse in her heart. Should she say it or not? Why don't you run to somewhere else? It was so unlucky that she ran to this small yard.
The more you don't want to get into trouble, the more trouble will tend to come to you!
At this time, they heard a voice shouting outside the courtyard gate.
"Captain! The killer has entered this yard. What should we do?"
The one who called the captain said, "Go in, we must catch him! He is so brave! He dared to sneak into the palace of the uncle of the emperor and assassinate the uncle of the current emperor. Brothers, catch him, the uncle of the emperor will reward him handsomely!"
When Li Lanzhen saw this, what should she do?
She and Xue Bao were no match for these well-trained officers and soldiers, and they were outnumbered, with this burden beside them.
Yes, a burden. Li Lanzhen knew that as long as the soldiers outside found the two of them, no matter how they explained, they would be regarded as accomplices, so at this time, they had to save this guy first!
This cannot be washed away even by jumping into the Yellow River!
She looked up at Xue Bao, who was lying on the crack of the door, looking outside.
"Crash! Bang!"
“Aunt Lan Zhen! It’s bad! They kicked open the gate and rushed in!!”
