There were more than ten dung carts leaving the city from Dinghuai Gate. The dung cart where Uncle Quan and others were hiding was inconspicuous.

The guarding soldiers would not lift the lid of the dung truck at all. Instead, they would tap the barrel with their long guns to identify whether it was dung water through the sound.

Uncle Quan was lying at the bottom of the barrel, so nervous that his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he held Sun Zhenzhou tightly in his arms.

The banging sound of the gun barrel made the bottom of the barrel buzz. Sun Zhenzhou felt very uncomfortable, but he still curled up obediently in Uncle Quan's arms, not daring to make any sound.

"Well, get out!" After the beating, the soldier covered his nose and waved his hand, which was regarded as letting him go.

Uncle Quan, who was hiding at the bottom of the barrel, slowly exhaled the breath he was holding, finally leaving the city.

More than a dozen dung trucks were the first to leave the city the moment the city gate opened. The people who were originally hiding in the corner slowly moved towards the city gate.

"Really, don't you know how much you weigh? Why do you pretend to be a tough guy? Tell me, where have all the people gone?" Huang Yeshan stepped on Lu Xiao's face with his leather boots and turned hard. Not everyone is a tough guy.

It can be done.

Lu Xiao once thought that his skills were pretty good, but when facing Huang Yeshan, he couldn't even finish three rounds. Even though he suffered a weapon loss, he still found it unbelievable.

Waves of pain and humiliation tortured Lu Xiao. As for his only dagger, which was stuck in his thigh, he didn't even have the courage to pull it out.

"If you don't want to die, just do it honestly. Otherwise, believe it or not, I can even dig out eight generations of your ancestors?" Huang Yeshan is not in a hurry, and has a cat-and-mouse mentality, because he knows that the city gates are now heavily guarded, and as long as there are people

If you're still in the city, you don't have to worry about not being able to find it.

Lu Xiao was not worried about the eighth generation of his ancestors. After all, he didn't know it himself, but he was reluctant to die if he really wanted to.

"Come here, let me cut off his limbs and throw them into a mass grave to feed the dogs." Huang Yeshan didn't believe it. This kid was obviously scared to death, how long could he hold on?

The personal guard stepped forward and pulled out the dagger from Lu Xiao's thigh without using his own tools. The blood spurted out far away, and Lu Xiao screamed in agony, which echoed throughout the Duke's mansion.

"Don't, don't, I'll do it!" Lu Xiao was really scared. If all his hands and feet were severed, wouldn't he become a cripple? The loyalty in his heart before would be thrown out of the window now.

"We are members of the Qinggang, under the orders of the military advisor..." Huang Yeshan took his feet away, and Lu Xiao immediately covered the wound on his thigh with his hand and said.

"Strategist? Who is the gang leader?" Huang Yeshan thought it was ridiculous that such a gangster had a military adviser.

"Gang leader, the former gang leader was Cheng Zhenbei. Later, he went south with the Duke of Fujian. The position of the gang leader has been vacant. The military advisor has the final say on all matters in the gang." This Lu Xiao can also be regarded as an old man in the Qing Gang.

Know all this.

"Sure enough, the implications are not small. Where is the young master?" As a military general, Huang Yeshan had some admiration for Sun Yu, but unfortunately, they were enemies.

"This, now, according to the plan, they should have left the city." Lu Xiao was holding back before, just for this, if he can delay it for a while, as for whether they can escape, it depends on fate. Anyway, he is

Tried my best.

"Impossible!" Huang Yeshan's face was full of disbelief. How could this old man and a child sneak out under the eyes of the city gate guards?

Although there are many people coming and going in Jiangning City, Sun Zhenzhou and Quan Shu are listed on the list. Without a warrant from the king, it is absolutely impossible to let them go. Moreover, there was a fire in the Duke of Lu's mansion before.

They sent people to notify all departments to strengthen inspections.

Lu Xiao was silent. Since he didn't believe it, what else could he say?

Looking at Lu Xiao's expression, Huang Yeshan's heart skipped a beat. He couldn't really get this serious.

"Tell me, what is the plan?" No matter how confident Huang Yeshan was, he would panic now. If Sun Zhenzhou really escaped, his crime would be great.

"Hide under the dung bucket..." Lu Xiao said slowly. This method has been tested many times by military counselor Yan Qiu, and it has been successfully tested. Today should be no exception.

"Which door should you go through? Tell me quickly!" Huang Yeshan's eyes flashed fiercely. He actually capsized in the sewer and led so many people to guard the Duke's Mansion. An old man and a young man even managed to escape. If he couldn't be recovered, he would

It's over.

"Dinghuaimen!" Lu Xiao was startled, his gaze was almost cannibalistic.

"Come here, follow me to chase him! In addition, send this man to General Tan and ask him to quickly arrest the leader of the Green Gang in the city." Huang Yeshan is only responsible for the affairs of the Duke of Lu, and the affairs of the Green Gang are obviously beyond his control.

As for the authority, we can only ask Tan Qihan to take action.

"Drive!" Huang Yeshan led four horses and a group of five people and ran towards Dinghuai Gate. It wasn't that he didn't want to bring more people, but he only had five horses in total.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" Huang Yeshan started shouting from afar. Now is the time to get angry and there can be no delay.

"General Huang, what is this?" Wei Ren, the guard of Dinghuai Gate, came out and ordered people to clear the roadblocks. He was familiar with Huang Yeshan, so he naturally wanted to ask.

"Something big has happened. The young master of Duke Lu's mansion has escaped." Huang Yeshan said patiently, no matter how anxious he was, he had to wait for the roadblocks to be removed before he could leave.

"Impossible, the general is here to keep an eye on him personally, and he doesn't dare to slack off in the slightest." Wei Ren was startled, and Huang Yeshan chased him through the Dinghuai Gate. He must have thought that the young master left through this gate.

"Did you find anything strange in the dung truck this morning?" Huang Yeshan didn't think so, but he couldn't help but not believe Lu Xiao's words.

"No, the dung carts are filled with those people every day. All the brothers under my command know each other, and there will definitely be no people from the Duke's mansion." Wei Ren let out a sigh of relief. Absolutely not, the people pushing the carts are all familiar faces, not to mention.

I also had a young child with me.

"One of the dung buckets was empty one foot below..." Huang Yeshan didn't believe it at first, but this method is indeed feasible, and the person who came up with this method must have been thinking about it for a long time.

"This, this," Wei Ren felt bad all over. Who came up with this idea? It's so wicked. You can't just open the lid of every dung truck and use a ruler to measure the depth, right?

"I will chase him first. If we can recover him, there is still a chance of recovery. Otherwise, we will be in big trouble." When Huang Yeshan saw the roadblock moved away, he immediately clasped his fists and led the cavalry out of the city.

All Wei Ren can do is pray in his heart, and he must succeed, otherwise, he will not be able to escape the accusation of laziness.

In front of the breakfast shop inside Dinghuai Gate, a man wearing a straw hat took all this into consideration. When Huang Yeshan left the city, he quickly prepared his bags and lined up to leave the city. If Lu Xiao were here, he would definitely be able to see this.

The person is Yan Qiu.

Yan Qiu had already thought about all the possibilities. He was waiting here just to see what was going on before making a decision. Now it was obvious that Lu Xiao had not been able to hold on. Fortunately, the rest of the Qing Gang had already withdrawn from the city.

What he has to do now is to avoid the limelight. When the news is over, he will go back to his hometown and join the gangs in Jiangning. It is really a last resort. Now that he has the opportunity, he might as well go back and live a normal life.

"Drive! Drive!" A carriage was running wildly on the official road. Sitting inside was Uncle Quan and Sun Zhenzhou, who had just left.

Soon after reaching the city, they got out of the dung cart and put on the carriage that had been prepared outside the city.

"Grandpa Quan, are we safe?" Sun Zhenzhou was still curled up in Uncle Quan's arms. He could feel Uncle Quan's nervousness, but wasn't he leaving the city?

"Soon!"

"My lord, where are we going?" Uncle Quan knew that as long as he was still in the Southern Tang Dynasty, he was not safe.

"You should not take the word benefactor. It is your duty to obey the orders of the Duke. Now let's go to the river. We have arranged a boat there. Let's go down the river first." This driver is a special kind.

The man in the camp is named Xiang Da. The Qing Gang has a way of getting people out of trouble, but what happens next is beyond their capabilities.

Xiang Da had already thought about it, and wanted to escape on land. There were too many checkpoints, and it was impossible to get through with just a piece of paper. Xiang Da planned to take the waterway, go down to Suzhou along the river, and then transfer to Taihu Lake to Huzhou. If he couldn't get through,

Go directly to Da Song to dock. I'm afraid they won't dare to pursue you directly. There is always a chance to escape.

The horse raced all the way, not daring to rest, and not knowing what would happen next. Anyway, if you take a step faster, you will have one more chance.

Finally arriving at the place where the boat was waiting, Xiang Da secretly thanked God and hurriedly called for Uncle Quan and Sun Zhenzhou to get off.

The sound of horse hoofbeats "da~da~da" was heard, and it was obvious that there were fast horses galloping towards them, and there were more than one.

"No, hurry up, someone is chasing me." Xiang Daqing knew something was wrong. If it had been another quarter of an hour later, he would have been able to escape, but after all, he was a little short of it. Now he could only wait and see his fate.

Uncle Quan hugged Sun Zhenzhou and staggered forward, while Xiang Da took the first step to untie the rope.

Uncle Quan had just boarded the boat with Sun Zhenzhou in his arms. Before he could stand firmly, Xiang Da tried his best to shake the oar and change the direction.

Uncle Quan stumbled, holding Sun Zhenzhou in his arms and fell to the deck. Xiang Da still ignored him and just shook the oar with all his strength. The boat slowly left the river and sailed forward.

Uncle Quan couldn't care less about comforting Sun Zhenzhou. He raised his head and looked back, only to see five horses galloping towards the end of the official road.

The visitors were naturally Huang Yeshan and his party, but they were a step too late after all. When they arrived, the ship was already twenty steps away from the shore. It was clearly visible, but out of reach.

"General, what should we do?" the soldier asked. The old man and the young man on the boat were clearly the two from the Duke of Lu's mansion. They had all met them before.

"Chase! Go downstream, there are navy ships over there." How could Huang Yeshan give up so easily? Even the ships going down the river are not as fast as the galloping horses, but their horsepower cannot last long.

"Drive!" A group of five riders went directly downstream.

"Strong man, they are going downstream." Although Uncle Quan is old, his eyesight is not bad, Xiang Da has his back turned, so he hurriedly reminded him.

"Then let's go to the Song Dynasty first." Xiang Da thought about it and understood the other party's intention.

If you are going downstream and it is difficult to escape the opponent's interception, you might as well go to the other side first and find a place to land.

They were a small boat, and the Song Dynasty navy didn't bother to pay attention to it. They just wanted to find a way to avoid the soldiers patrolling the shore.

Xiang Da vigorously shook the oars and steered the ship towards the center of the river.

Uncle Quan put his arm around Sun Zhenzhou with one hand and held the side of the boat tightly with the other. It was really dangerous for such a small boat to rise and fall on the river.
