Chapter 7 Volume A: Qi Lu is still young and little lotus is showing its sharp corners
The guards have left the city. This city must be an outer city.
Just two days ago, banditry broke out today. The atmosphere of conspiracy hidden in it is too strong, and both internal and external activities are launched at the same time. If there is nothing fishy in it, even a fool will not believe it.
“How did you know that the guards had left the city?” Feng You was still somewhat unwilling to accept this reality.
If the main force of the guards in the city really left the city, then disaster would really be imminent. The problem was that he had been in the city these past few days, but he had never heard of the guards leaving the city.
"Humph, believe it or not, the guards left the city overnight and took boats in batches from the East Gate Pier." Seeing that Feng Youyi didn't believe it, the thin black boy added: "In the past few days, the guards in the city have My sweetheart has not seen anyone for several days. If it were the past..."
“How about taking care of the people from the grain gang?” Feng You, whose heart was sinking, didn’t know what to do for a while.
"I'm afraid it won't work. People from the Liang Gang have always taken care of their own shortcomings, but they only care about their own family, and others are absolutely unwilling to help." The thin black boy shook his head like a rattle.
"No matter, Uncle You, let's go over there first!" Feng Ziying said in a deep voice at this time: "If it doesn't work, then go back to the old house to make plans."
Feng You did not expect that Feng Ziying would suddenly become so decisive at this time, and without thinking much, with a wave of his hand, Feng Ziying and Ruixiang had already got off the car and followed Feng You. Under the leadership of the black and thin boy, they first exited this cross street and headed east. run.
At this time, the city was already filled with fireworks, and from time to time a group of people came out of nowhere and bumped into each other on the street.
However, Feng You was still under the threat of the **** narrow-edged sword in his hands, so most people would not dare to provoke this group of people.
"Let's go, hurry up, go through it to Guanyinzui, then go to Shangwan Street, behind it is Scorpion Pit, and after passing Scorpion Pit is Yongqing Gate."
The dark and skinny boy was extremely familiar with the road conditions in Linqing City. He passed through several side alleys in succession, avoiding a group of gangsters dressed as kiln workers who were sweeping along the street and breaking down doors.
“Oops, the Yudai Bridge has been occupied by them!” As soon as he showed his head, the thin black boy immediately retracted, turned around and said anxiously: “I can’t get through.”
Feng You leaned slightly against the wall, signaling Feng Ziying, who was running like a bellows and panting violently, to quickly cling to the wall. Ruixiang fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
There are still ten feet away from the Yudai Bridge, but the bridge, which is more than ten feet wide, has already been occupied by a dozen rioters with their bare chests and white cloth turbans tied around their necks, and two of them are obviously different from the other ten. Personal grooming.
Wearing a green robe, one person is holding a knife and the other is holding a sword. However, their faces are smeared with withered yellow powder, making it impossible to see their true faces.
At a glance, Feng You was also surprised: "White Lotus Sect?"
He had seen how powerful these White Lotus cult bandits were in Datong Town.
The White Lotus Sect outside the walls of Datong Border Town has tens of thousands of people. This group of people has lived quite comfortably for many years relying on the Tumut people under the control of Anda Khan and Sanniangzi without being chased by the Zhou army. It became the biggest helper for the Tatars to break into the border wall.
Although Anda Khan is dead now, his grandsons, Lalik and Sanniangzi, still control the relationship between the Mongolian right wing and the Great Zhou, and they also use Zhao Quan's group of White Lotus believers as a bargaining chip with the Great Zhou.
His impression was that some high-status characters in the White Lotus Sect outside the Great Wall were dressed like this, either in green robes or white shirts, and they looked very chivalrous and fairy-like.
“Luo Jiao?!” The thin, black boy who looked like a cat even poked his head out to take a look growled.
Feng You's face turned bad.
If the White Lotus Sect really was in trouble, it would not be so easy. I'm afraid they would have responded to the call and swarmed up.
Hearing the thin black boy shout "Luo Jiao", Feng You didn't understand for a moment and glanced at him, but now he didn't have much thought to pay attention to it, "What should I do? I can't get through, can I take a detour?"
"Then we can only go up to Jiangba Bridge and go around Yaowang Temple, but I don't know if Yaowang Temple will also be blocked." The thin black boy also had a look of annoyance on his face, "We It would be better if we came a little earlier, there was no one on the bridge before..."
“Okay, let’s go quickly, it’s useless to talk anymore!” Feng Ziying interrupted and waved her hand, “By the way, what’s your name?”
"My surname is Zuo, and my name is..." Before the thin black boy could finish speaking, Feng Ziying said again: "Uncle You, take him with you. Ruixiang and I will follow you."
Feng You glanced at Feng Ziying in surprise. He was surprised that this young master was different, but he didn't think much about it and nodded: "Okay!"
Somewhat dissatisfied that Feng Ziying didn't even want to hear her name finish, the thin and dark boy glared at Feng Ziying, but did not object. He nodded and followed Feng You.
The four of them fell back and walked out of the alley. Feng You held Xiao Heizi down and looked around before quickly passing through the street with the few people behind him.
Jiangba Bridge has not yet been blocked, but the chaotic flow of people has proven that the area is starting to get out of control.
When some citizens who were still waiting to see the situation discovered that the streets were in such chaos, the guards in Brick City never showed up, and none of the patrol officers in the state were seen, so they all started to join in the looting. .
Especially those kiln workers, many of whom are refugees from other places, and many of them are even anonymous bandits.
As soon as a group of people crossed the Jiangba Bridge, a group of people came from the south, heading here, obviously to control the Jiangba Bridge.
Everyone was secretly lucky in their hearts and hurriedly rushed from Jiangba Bridge into Jiangba Street.
This and the nearby Yaowang Temple Street, most of the homes in this area were for the guards' military households, who were engaged in washing, sewing and sewing. There were also some private kilns doing the business of the guards, and they had already closed their doors at this time.
From a remote alley in the middle of Yaowang Temple, you can find the area near the Scorpion Pit behind the old house of the Feng family.
Scorpion Keng is actually a large pond. It was originally a lake formed by flooding when the Wenshui River rose a few decades ago. It covers an area of one or two hundred acres. The back wall of the Feng family's old house was built along the Scorpion Keng Lake.
A circle along the scorpion pit, you can go directly to the horizontal street where the old house of Feng's house is. It is only a hundred steps away from Yongqing Street.
Scorpion Pit is a long lake that can be bypassed from the north and south.
“Go south or north?” As soon as he arrived at the edge of the scorpion pit, Feng You felt much more at ease.
This area is covered with reeds. During July and August, the vegetation is lush and lush. Even if a dozen or twenty people get in, they may be hard to find. If they really encounter bandits, they can sneak into the reeds and hide temporarily.
I thought that the robbers were not just coming from bad luck, so why did they have to spend so much effort on a few of them? If I had the time, I might as well find two random shops on the street and smash them open, and I could make some profit.
"Go north! The Fire Temple in the south is next to Drum Tower West Street. If the thieves go to look for food to help the bad luck, they will definitely be ruined. If we go south, we will be easily hit." The thin black boy said hurriedly.
