【Fengyun Reading Network.】

Chang Sihao scurried in the shadows of the alley, and soon approached Xu's Mansion There was still some distance away from it, and he heard the sound of loud footsteps He hid in the corner of the wall and looked at it, and couldn't help but be surprised

It turned out that outside the wall of Xufu, there were rows of family members holding lamps to patrol, after observation, these families were divided into two teams, all marching from left to right, and the front team turned the corner of the west wall, and the rear team tail had gone around the east wall, and there was no blind spot in the front and back, and the wall was also full of dead wind lanterns, illuminating the surroundings as if it was daytime

He stood guard for a while, knowing that it was impossible to jump over their heads without being detected, and he wanted to follow the back of the group to knock down one of the people who had changed his clothes, and he had no hope in terms of time, and there was no way out, so he had to go backwards

There is a drainage ditch in the backyard of Xu's house that crosses the road and is connected to the drainage ditches of other households, and these ditches are paved with stone slabs that can accommodate people underneath, and he observes this road during the day, but he thinks it is too dirty, and he never thinks that he will never take this road as a last resort, and he does not expect to be forced to do nothing at once

In order to avoid being discovered, he went into the ditch from a distance, only to feel that the stench kept penetrating his nostrils, which was disgusting, he didn't dare to be careless, he paid attention to the sound of the water under his feet, bowed his waist and slowly touched forward, and after a while, he came to the opposite side of the road connecting the Xujia drainage outlet Probe looked, this deep ditch stretched forward, Hessesen did not see the end, and every other section in the gap in the stone slab above, there was a slight glimmer of light shining on the surging maggots, making the ditch look like some kind of ** monster fishy viscera

Chang Sihao endured his nausea, leaned down his legs, listened to the footsteps above his head, slowly moved forward in the knee-deep sewage, walked straight for a quarter of an hour, and only touched the distance of these two zhang until he confirmed that he had come to the drainage outlet under the wall of Xufu Then he slowly breathed a sigh of relief The buttress reached out in the darkness and reached forward His fingertips suddenly touched a rough hard object His heart sank

If you touch it carefully, it is indeed a thick iron grate

This iron fence is extremely thick, it makes people desperate, although there are treasure soldiers in his hand, if he cuts hard, it will definitely alarm the patrol He fixed his mind and thought: "I have come here, can I still go back here" His hand scratched on the iron fence and touched it, and suddenly found that one of them was thinner in the middle, and it was bent and pulled hard, and unexpectedly, a piece of iron sheet fell Chang Sihao was overjoyed: "This fence is of pig iron, soaked in water for many years, and it rusts badly" He was afraid that someone would find out above his head, so he didn't use the weapon and held it tightly with both hands, and listened to the footsteps above the stone slab Rushed to the front team At the moment of the future of the rear team, the arms fought fiercely, and a soft sound of "Ge Ah" pulled the iron tendons apart

He poked his hand out, and knew that the gap could be passed by, and his heart was overjoyed, and he lowered his head and was about to drill in, when suddenly he felt the water and dirt rushing outward, followed by a fishy smell slapping his face, and a long, flattened, fang-covered mouth stretched out from inside

He tilted his head back suddenly, and the big mouth bit into the air, and at the same time, the two eyes lit up in the darkness, and Chang Sihao retreated in shock, and the monster's mouth opened and probed forward again, and the iron grate "creaked", and was immediately bent by it again, and the muddy water splashed Chang Sihao's head and face

The monster was impatient with the grate and shook its head and tail violently, shaking the whole grate down, wearing its claws and feet, and lunging forward

Chang Sihao was so frightened that his hair flew as soon as he twisted his body and crawled backwards As soon as he crossed the corner, he heard a sound Behind him The muddy water behind him rushed up and crashed into the ditch wall How dare he look again Hands and knees and used the ditch rat to rush forward The monster behind him chased after him The iron fence on the mouth knocked on the edge of the ditch wall and made a "clang" sound The patrol team on the ground heard the movement and was not right Each lit a lantern and torch surrounded it Someone picked up the stone slab near the drainage outlet and said: "It's not good, the crocodile in the house [there was no name of crocodile in ancient China, but it was called Zhu Polong, for the convenience of readers, so it is still according to the habits of today's people] Ran out" "Where did you run" "The voice is over there, I went down the waterway" "Chase "

Everyone chased them out of the waterway for two trips only to hear the sound of crackling and stirring water from the ditch But they stopped moving forward Someone took a hook and put up a stone slab to see that this section of the ditch narrowed The iron grating on the crocodile's head stuck it in the ditch like a flail It can't move forward anymore A family Ding smiled and said: "This thing has not eaten people for a few days and hit it out I probably heard our footsteps I think it's time to eat" Another person laughed: "There are fewer and fewer people who refuse to donate Can it still be hungry " The former said: "Come on, get it back quickly Lose this treasure." The eldest prince is going to be angry, "At that moment, everyone started together, got a rope noose, tied the crocodile's mouth, and carried it back to the house

Chang Sihao slowly crawled out of the ditch on another street Feeling that his legs were weak Hiding in the dark and gasping for a long time Scolded in his heart: "I'll fuck his grandmother, slow down, the next half of the life will have to crawl and go" After a while, I felt the smell of my whole body I found a street well and fetched water to rinse it for a long time Then I returned to the store and entered the house and closed the door Take off my clothes and put the sword, waki, jade pendant and other things on the table and wipe them one by one In addition to the fire in my heart, I started to worry again: "The Xu family is so well defended, how can I enter?"

The next morning, I went to the bathhouse and soaked for a long time before I felt that the smell in my nostrils gradually disappeared I took out the silver taels and asked the guys to buy them and finish changing them Come out to find a restaurant to have an "breakfast" meal I can hear the sound of gongs and drums on the street before walking When I got closer to see it, it turned out to be a small opera troupe singing wild stage opera The costumes are old The scene is not good The people watching are sparse When he arrived, he was rushing to the end of the scene I didn't listen to two sentences I saw the small drama end the gong The actors left the stage and changed their costumes Ready to eat lunch Chang Sihao looked at these people and thought: "Alas, I don't know how she and Mr. Liang are doing now? Which tube looks like a floating wave, the streets and alleys are playing, playing and singing, 'This lyric is beautifully written, but the days when the actors are wandering around begging for a living are not easy."

Just thinking to himself, he suddenly saw someone waving at him on the side of the changing shed of the troupe He looked left and right The people watching the show around him were all scattered Only one of himself was left There was now a man who walked over and asked what was the matter The drama said: "This little brother is your surname" Chang Sihao was puzzled and unanswered, but saw a small crack in the curtain of the shed Obviously someone peeked out He immediately became alert But he heard the people in the shed say in surprise: "Master Hou, it's really you" The curtain was opened while he spoke, and half of his body leaned out from it The powder makeup was removed and the ring was not taken off It was Lin Huaishu, the "No. 1 boudoir".

Chang Sihao was also surprised: "Miss Lin, why are you here" Lin Huaishu cautiously looked left and right and gestured: "Please Hou Ye deign to talk in the shed"

The two of them came in and sat down, leaving one person to guard outside The rest of the actors pretended to have nothing to do and dispersed to eat and drink Chang Sihao asked: "Why did the girl come to this small opera troupe Why are you so careful Mr. Liang and Sister Gu What about them" Lin Huaishu sighed lightly, and his eyes turned red It turned out that the Liang family class had fled from Beijing at the beginning and gathered in Kunshan Because the lawsuit was not notified in advance Some people were disgruntled, and some people were afraid of the Xu family's revenge, so they didn't come back In the end, Liang Bolong checked the manpower All that was left were a dozen apprentices and a few old piano masters

Liang Bolong was not discouraged Reorganized the troupe Insufficient manpower Singing small operas if he couldn't sing big operas Relying on the help of old listeners and old friends in Kunshan Recruiting some new people Finally supported the troupe and gradually recovered Unexpectedly, some time ago, a wealthy local family invited Liang Jiaban to sing at home As a result, after singing the play, he lost the stolen jewelry in the house and hid it in the box where the Liang family class was dressed in costume At that time, he couldn't help but say that he pushed the actors to the ground and lynched Liang Bolong knew that this framing was aimed at himself In order to avoid affecting others took all the charges on his head Other actors were beaten out of the door with sticks The troupe was chaotic for a few days Most of the personnel dispersed Gu Siyi also fell ill under the inspection It turned out that the newcomers recruited by the troupe were mixed with the spies of the Xu family Everything that Song Yuan did outside was also in collusion with Xu Fan and Xu Kun Lin Huaishu knew that there was no way to ask for help I heard that Liang Bolong had been escorted into the Xu Mansion I was afraid that he would be killed, so I followed a group of peers to Huating to inquire about the movement And because I was a corner, I didn't dare to show up I only ran a trick as a cover But the Xu Mansion was heavily guarded I haven't been able to find any news, but I don't want to meet him today

Chang Sihao fell silent after hearing this, knowing that Xu Da and Xu Er had seen through Liang Bolong's temper It was expected that he did not want to entangle with corrupt officials and corrupt officials He didn't even bother to defend himself And the righteous word came first I would rather take the name of a thief than protect others So this plan was successfully achieved The Xu family covered the sky with one hand in this area The government and them are all out of the same nostril Liang Bolong fell into their hands It was like falling into a bottomless black hole Is it okay Seeing Lin Huaishu kneeling and begging for each other, he hurriedly helped him up and said: "The girl doesn't have to be like this Don't say that Mr. Liang is my friend Even if you don't know each other I met this incident How can Chang not save it, but you can guess it when you look at my dress Now my identity should not be exposed, and the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake Even if I reveal my identity, the two wicked people of the Xu family will not buy it."

Lin Huaishu said: "That...... How can that be?"

Chang Sihao paced in the shed for a long time, and suddenly turned his face to look at her: "Can you rely on your peers?"

Lin Huaishu said: "The master of the old Song class is very good, everyone is very sympathetic to the situation of the Liang class master, otherwise it will not help me As the saying goes, 'people are not close to art' Everyone eats this bowl of rice Usually there is a horse stirrup short They will take care of each other" Chang Sihao nodded: "I have an idea, but it's a little risky, and I want to use the girl, I don't know if you want to."

Lin Huaishu said: "You just have to instruct that if you can rescue the class master, Huaishu will not hesitate to do anything even if his liver and brain are smeared."
