Chapter 398: Danger and Danger
Xu Dezu's boat was getting closer and closer to Zhao Yan and them, and the appearance of Yin Niang on the boat also fell into their eyes, only to see that at this time, although Yin Niang was very wet and in good spirits, she pursed her mouth tightly, no matter what Xu Dezu next to her said, she just didn't say a word, it seemed that she was worried that if she spoke out, it would distract Yan Yuru and Zhao Yan because of this.
However, Xu Dezu's cruelty far exceeded everyone's expectations, just after he threatened Yinniang, he didn't find any movement, which made him suddenly smile, suddenly pulled out the saber from his waist, and then slashed Yinniang's thigh fiercely, only to hear Yinniang's scream, and the red blood immediately stained his thighs.
"Hidden Niang!" Yan Yuru couldn't help crying and screaming when she saw this, which made Xu Dezu immediately hear their location, laughed at the moment, raised the bloody long knife and pointed at Zhao Yan's location, and ordered: "Chase!" ”
Zhao Yan was also shocked when he saw this, but he didn't panic, after all, the river was so dark, as long as they left their current position and were not discovered, Xu Dezu and they would lose their position again.
However, Zhao Yan obviously underestimated Xu Dezu's cruelty and cunning, and when he was holding the boat and moving downstream, he saw Xu Dezu slash Yinniang again, although this knife was not as heavy as the first knife, but it still made Yinniang scream in pain.
"Don't! Don't hurt the Hidden Lady anymore! Yan Yuru saw Yinniang's appearance, the whole person's spirit had collapsed, and she cried and begged Xu Dezu, she had never begged Xu Dezu since she was a child, and this was the first time.
However, Xu Dezu didn't say anything about his daughter's plea, but pointed to the place where the sound came from again, there were more people rowing on his boat, and the speed of the boat was relatively fast, so as long as they found the right direction, it was only a matter of time before they caught up with Zhao Yan.
"Sister, run away, leave me alone!" After hearing Yan Yuru's words, Yin Niang couldn't help but say anxiously, the moment she fell into the water, she was ready to die, but she didn't expect that the will of heaven would make her fall into the hands of Xu Dezu, which made her even more determined to die, and now the only hope is to let Yan Yuru and Zhao Yan escape.
Xu Dezu did not stop Yinniang from speaking, but waited patiently for her to finish speaking, and then showed a hideous smile again, and the long knife in his hand slashed through Yinniang's body again, cutting out a slender bloody wound, but this time Yinniang just snorted, but she endured it and did not scream.
However, when Yan Yuru saw Yinniang's appearance, she couldn't help crying again, although Zhao Yan knew that she would only expose her position like this, she could also understand Yan Yuru's mood, plus he had to use all his strength to dodge, so he could only let Yan Yuru cry like this.
Xu Dezu's boat was very fast, and it was getting closer and closer to Zhao Yan's boat, and even in the end, Xu Dezu could already see Zhao Yan's stern through the lights on his own ship, which also made him laugh happily, and at the same time, he no longer tortured Yin Niang, and began to command the surrounding ships to outflank Zhao Yan's boat from both sides, as long as he could block his way, Zhao Yan would not want to escape.
Yin Niang, who was guarded by two women on the boat, saw Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru's boat, and her face also showed an anxious look, but at this time she suddenly found that it may be because of seeing Zhao Yan's boat, which made the maids who were guarding her and Xu Dezu relax their vigilance against her, which made Yin Niang suddenly make a decision in her heart.
Xu Dezu saw that Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru were about to be lost and regained by him, and the whole person was also very proud, he didn't expect that the Yin Niang who was being guarded would desperately crash into him, not to mention that he still had his back to Yin Niang, and when he heard the exclamation behind him, it was too late, but he was hit by Yin Niang all of a sudden, and the two fell into the underground river almost at the same time.
Seeing this result, Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru and those of Xu Dezu's subordinates all exclaimed, especially those of Xu Dezu's subordinates, who stopped the boat in a panic and began to salvage Xu Dezu, after all, compared to the life of the leader, Zhao Yan and Yan Yuru were nothing at all.
Yan Yuru saw that Yinniang made such a tragic move, and she screamed even more at the moment, Zhao Yan also showed grief, these days after getting along with Yinniang, he found that Yinniang was actually a very kind and simple woman, but she was coerced by Xu Dezu with her family, so she had to betray her, but she didn't expect that at the last moment, she actually saved her life twice.
However, now is not the time to grieve, and it is even more unrealistic to turn the bow of the boat and go back to save people, so Zhao Yan looked at the chaotic situation on Xu Dezu's side, and when he gritted his teeth, he rowed the boat again, accelerated downstream, and quickly got out of the sight of those people in the Yin Hades Division, and by the time Xu Dezu was salvaged, Zhao Yan and their boat had already disappeared into the dark underground river.
Xu Dezu was actually not injured, and even swam to the side of the boat soon after falling into the water, but when he returned to the boat with the help of his men, Zhao Yan, who could still be seen just now, had disappeared, which made him scold angrily: "Where is that slut Yinniang, I want to skin her alive and make a lantern!" ”
"Leader Qiyu, Yin Niang seems to have been swept away by the undercurrent of the river, but she is tied, and the underground river is so vast, it should be impossible to survive!" Hearing Xu Dezu's words, a person from the Yin Underworld Division immediately stepped forward with a trembling voice to report, just now they were only concerned about saving Xu Dezu, and no one paid attention to Yin Niang at all, but when they wanted to find her again, Yin Niang didn't know where she was washed away?
Hearing that Yinniang was not found, this made the anger in Xu Dezu's chest even stronger, and he turned his head to look at the two maids who were watching Yinniang just now, and as a result, the other party was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, after all, it was their negligence that made Yinniang find an opportunity to attack Xu Dezu.
"Hmph, since Yinniang found an opportunity to jump into the underground river, what are you still doing on the boat?" Xu Dezu looked at the two maids begging for mercy, and said with a very gloomy gaze, if you make a mistake, you will be punished, and this principle is also common in the Yin and Hades Division.
Hearing Xu Dezu's words, the two maids who begged for mercy were all frightened and pale, and they glanced at each other at the moment, both of them showed a decisive look in their eyes, and then turned around and jumped into the underground river without any hesitation, this is because they all know that the leader's order cannot be disobeyed, otherwise they will be punished more cruelly.
Looking at the two maids floating in the river, and were quickly rushed into the unknown dark distance, Xu Dezu finally let out a long breath, although he knew that the possibility of catching up with Zhao Yan at this time was very small, but he did not give up, and immediately ordered the other boats to pursue again, but he himself returned to the underground palace in a small boat.
At this time, most of the fire in the dungeon had been extinguished, and only a few smaller houses were still fueled, but the people around the fire were constantly carrying water to extinguish the fire, so the fire was getting smaller and smaller, but Xu Dezu looked at the burned houses around him, but a trace of gloom and annoyance flashed on his face.
Just as Xu Dezu returned to the underground palace, a woman in charge of directing the fire immediately stepped forward and reported: "Leader Qiyu, most of the fire has been extinguished, and it will be completely extinguished in half an hour, but the loss in the underground palace is not small, and two side halls have been burned down, one of which is the side hall where the king of Guangyang County was imprisoned before." ”
If Zhao Yan was here, he would definitely be able to recognize this woman as the leading woman who escorted them when he and Yan Yuru first came.
Xu Dezu was not surprised when he heard the other party's report, but turned his head to look at the burned houses around him and said, "Zhao Yan and Yuru escaped, and the empty should still be in the side hall, did he also escape with the help of this fire?" ”
The woman who came to report heard Xu Dezu ask about Kong, and immediately made her hesitate, but in the end she replied very honestly: "Leader Qiyu, I have sent someone to check, there are no corpses in that side hall, and even the two maids who were knocked unconscious by Yinniang before were sent to a safe place behind, and only Kong will do this, and now there is no trace of Kong, it is estimated that it is likely to have escaped from the underground palace!" ”
"Hehe~, it's so empty, to be able to put such a big fire in the heavily defended dungeon, and to be able to escape calmly, it seems that he should have placed someone in the Netherworld, and he really deserves to be my good son!" Xu Dezu laughed unexpectedly when he heard this, but then he said with some regret, "It's a pity that he was taught stupid by those Buddhist guys, if it were me, I should have thrown those two maids into the fire and burned them to scorched corpses, although it can still be identified as a female corpse afterwards, but it can delay our search." ”
"Head LinkedIn!" The woman standing in front of Xu Dezu heard his words, her body trembled imperceptibly, and then she bowed down and saluted again, although she had followed Xu Dezu for many years, every time she heard him speak in a tone that didn't take human life seriously, she was still a little uncomfortable.
"Hehe, if I'm really wise, I won't let Sora plant a spy next to me." Xu Dezu sneered again when he heard this, and then said to the woman in front of him, "The person who can set fire in the underground palace must not be low, and people also know my temper, and they will definitely not let that spy stay, you go and find out who disappeared in the fire, and then pass the portrait of this to the various branches, I want to let the betrayed people know how strict the consequences of betrayal are!" ”
"Yes! Chief! The woman shuddered again at the end, then turned and left. I saw that Xu Dezu looked around again at this time, "Zhao Yan escaped, although I don't know if I can escape from the underground river alive, but just in case, this underground palace can't be asked for anymore." ”R1152
