Chapter 132: People Kneeling in Thanks
After a few simple packing up, they set off. As soon as they set off, many civilians and refugees followed them. They learned that Xiao Yuchen, Li Wei and others were about to leave.
Everyone followed behind with red eyes, reluctant to leave. They followed for quite a while. Xiao Yuchen and Li Wei also noticed the movement behind them. They turned their heads and saw that there were at most one or two hundred people following behind.
"Go back, don't follow me, stay here and someone will come soon to deal with your accommodation issues."
Xiao Yuchen turned around and spoke to them.
When the people heard what Xiao Yuchen said, they all burst into tears and were reluctant to leave Xiao Yuchen and the others.
Someone took the lead and knelt down to Xiao Yuchen, and gradually more and more people knelt down in the direction of Xiao Yuchen and the others.
Later, all the people and refugees behind them knelt down.
"Ninth Prince, we will take you here. Thank you for saving my life."
Someone shouted loudly at Xiao Yuchen and others. Xiao Yuchen's eyes turned red when he saw this scene. He waved at them with his back to them, and then left without looking back.
It was not until they left and their backs could no longer be seen that the kneeling people stood up one by one.
Xiao Yuchen and the others walked very slowly today, which was intentional. After all, there were things for Bai Zhan to do in the evening, and if they walked faster, they would be farther away.
Zhao Hu walked in front, pulling a hemp rope in his hand. Behind him were Li Wei and others, and following beside him were the guards who came with Zhao Hu.
Xiao Yuchen, Jiang Nanyuan and others were walking at the end. They walked very slowly and gradually distanced themselves from the people in front.
By the time Zhao Hu reacted, they could hardly see Xiao Yuchen and the others anymore.
He had no choice but to stop and wait where he was. When Xiao Yuchen and the others came over, he didn't dare to go up and ask what was going on, but let them rest where they were.
For some reason, he was afraid of Xiao Yuchen in his heart.
They rested there for about half an hour, then started moving forward again until it got dark again. They only walked about five miles today.
At night, they all rested in the woods. Now with the addition of Zhao Hu and others, it became a little difficult for Xiao Yuchen and the others to move around.
He asked Jiang Nanyuan for some sleeping pills, and after giving them to Zhao Hu, Li Qiang and others, Bai Zhan left. He used his lightness skills to walk back, and half an hour later, he returned to Anyang County.
After sneaking into the city, he went straight to Sun Qifa's residence. This time, Bai Zhan found that there were many more people outside his residence, including yamen runners, some men in black, and even secret guards in the dark.
Bai Zhan's mouth twitched. Does it need so many people to guard such a dilapidated mansion?
He sneaked in easily and found Sun Qifa's room. There were also four people guarding outside his door.
They were so defensive, it seemed they were frightened by the last incident, but so what? These people were no match for Bai Zhan, and he easily dispatched several of them.
Then he sneaked into Sun Qifa's room, walked quickly to the bed and covered his mouth. Under his horrified eyes, he drew the long sword from his waist and wiped it across his neck.
After he was completely dead and no longer struggling, Bai Zhan let go of his hand covering his mouth, and without staying there any longer, he left the Sun Mansion.
Another half an hour passed before he returned to Xiao Yuchen's side. As soon as he approached, he saw that he had opened his eyes and nodded slightly at him. After Xiao Yuchen understood, he closed his eyes again.
The next morning, Zhao Hu and others woke up and felt weak and limp all over. This feeling was very familiar. It was the aftereffect of the drug. Could it be that someone had drugged them yesterday?
When he thought of this, he looked at everyone to see if anyone had taken the opportunity to escape, but after checking them all, he found that no one was missing, they were all here.
He felt even more confused and turned to look at the people behind him. Not only him, but all the other people he brought with him had the same expression on their faces.
It seems that it was not his illusion. Someone had indeed used drugs, but he didn't know who it was.
Seeing that Li Qiang didn't seem to be so perceptive and no one else showed any signs of abnormality, he thought that it was better to have trouble than not, so he did it this way first.
Thinking of this, he asked everyone to eat something and then asked them to continue walking.
This time they walked for more than ten days in a row, and their progress was finally much faster. They walked nearly 300 miles in more than ten days.
During this period, Jiang Nanyuan and Xiao Yuchen asked about the location of Baizhan Fantasy Sea. They wanted to go to the Fantasy Sea to see if they could pick water lotus.
If he could pick some, Jiang Nanyuan would like to get more and put them in the space to see if he can plant some in the space.
However, we cannot let everyone go together to look for water lotus. It may take many days to search there. Zhao Hu is taking care of them during these days.
This Zhao Hu was also very strange. He either yelled or scolded Li Wei, but he was not like that to other people. He was polite to everyone else.
Especially towards Xiao Yuchen, he could be said to be obedient. Li Wei also saw such an obvious thing, and he also felt that everything he did seemed to be done deliberately for certain people to see.
Especially the last time he whipped himself, although he really whipped him, he could feel that he didn't mean to kill him at all, and the wound healed quickly.
That night, after Li Wei and everyone else fell asleep, he opened his eyes and looked towards Li Qiang, only to find that he was already fast asleep, unconscious.
Zhao Hu was still awake at this time. He stared at the moon in the sky with his eyes open, wondering what he was thinking. Li Wei stood up and walked towards him. His hands were still tied with hemp rope, but the rope was not tied tightly at all. If he exerted force, he could just use his internal force to loosen it.
"what's on your mind?"
Zhao Hu had noticed Li Wei coming, but he didn't say anything. He was still staring at the moon in the sky. When he heard Li Wei's words, he looked back at him, "Don't you hate me? I betrayed you and joined the Second Prince. Have you been wanting to kill me for a long time?"
"Don't blame me. I know you. You are not that kind of person. If you really surrendered to the Second Prince, you must have had your reasons."
Zhao Hu gave a bitter laugh when he heard his words. "Boss, I didn't hit you on purpose. If I hadn't done that, how could he have believed it? Also, I will never betray you. I will first infiltrate the Second Prince and make him trust me. I will pass on any important news as soon as possible."
Zhao Hu didn't expect that he had done so many bad things to Li Wei. He didn't even explain, but Li Wei still believed him, which touched him deeply.
"Zhao Hu, I don't need you to join me. I've already surrendered to the Ninth Prince. If you're willing, just state it directly. You're all my brothers, and I don't want you to do anything so dangerous."
If Xiao Yujing found out about this, they would probably be in trouble and might even die without knowing how.
