When he returned to the door of the house, Lu Chengchuan found something wrong.
"Come on, bring that thing over here."
"Let's drink together. We've gained quite a lot on this trip, so let's celebrate!"
There was a noisy sound coming from inside, more than one person was talking, both men and women. Lu Chengchuan looked up, sure that this was the house he rented, how could there be someone else living there.
Lu Chengchuan walked straight in. In the hall of the house, seven people were celebrating their harvest when they suddenly saw Lu Chengchuan striding in. The seven people looked at him, stood up immediately, and drew their weapons.
"Who are you and what do you want to do?"
After squaring off, a man asked him what he was doing in there.
They broke into people's homes for no reason and hacked people to death on the spot, and the guards in the city couldn't say a word.
"I lived here before, but I didn't say I wanted to move out. There was also a young woman. Where is she?"
"What a mess! We rented the house half a month ago and no one has lived there for a long time." The man did not fully believe what he said, and he had no idea what young woman was.
“No one is here anymore…”
He looked at the man, his brows slightly furrowed. The man's emotions did not fluctuate at all, and he was indeed not lying.
"Sorry!" Lu Chengchuan turned and left.
He knew something must have happened, so he ran to the side and found the owner of the house.
"who!"
The owner of the house was sitting and drinking water when he saw someone breaking in. He quickly stood up and grabbed his weapon. However, even with his musket in hand, the landlord was still very nervous.
"Remember me, boss?"
"You?" The landlord opened his eyes wide, looked for a long time, and finally remembered: "It's you, you're not dead?!"
The landlord was surprised, this was different from what he had heard.
"What happened to the woman who came with me?" Lu Chengchuan's heart skipped a beat. Who spread the rumor that he was dead? What happened to Raya?
"She...she was captured by the guards. She offended a noble in the city and was thrown into jail. You should hurry and redeem her. It's been over a month. If you delay, it will be too late to save her."
He hadn't seen Lu Chengchuan for more than a month and thought he had died outside, but he didn't expect that he could come back.
"Prison, and she wants me to redeem her. How did she offend the nobles?" Lu Chengchuan felt it was a bit absurd. How could she be in prison after only three months?
"I don't know about that. That's what the guards said when they came to arrest me. I just happened to hear it from the side."
The landlord didn't know, but since the person had already been arrested, he wouldn't ask too many questions.
"My things were taken away too?"
He left Thundermon's horn in the house. I wonder if they would take the thing away when they caught him.
"Everything has been taken away. There is nothing left."
After the soldiers passed by, the landlord went to check the house and found that most of the valuables had been moved away by the soldiers.
Lu Chengchuan really wanted to curse, but he held it back. The most important thing now was to rescue Raya. As for the ransom, he would talk about it after he figured out the whole story.
Next to the prison, Lu Chengchuan used his mental power to find Raya, and then he escaped underground.
Raya sat in the dim cell, her expression dull and her eyes lifeless. She hadn't cleaned herself for over a month, and with all the small things in the cell, Raya was now in a terrible state.
"What's going on? It's only been a few months, why are you living here?"
Just as Raya was sitting on the ground picking weeds, the familiar voice sounded in her ears again.
She turned her head and found Lu Chengchuan standing behind her. Raya was stunned for a moment, her dull expression loosened, and her emotions instantly collapsed, she opened her mouth and burst into tears.
"Cry, it will be better if you cry."
Lu Chengchuan went up and hugged her gently. The past month or so was indeed too much torture for Raya.
"Who's crying? Can you be quiet? Cry if you're going to die!"
However, her crying annoyed the other prisoners. Most of the people who were imprisoned here were not good people, and these guys would not feel sympathy just because others cried.
Ignoring those foul-mouthed prisoners, Lu Chengchuan patted Raya's back. After Raya's mood stabilized a little, Lu Chengchuan asked
"Tell me, what happened?"
Offending the nobles was just the landlord's one-sided statement, he still wanted to hear what Raya had to say.
“I was out doing some shopping the other day, and I was walking down the street when I bumped into a woman.
I apologized to her, but her men wouldn't let me go, saying I'd injured a noble and needed compensation. When I refused, they took me here..."
Raya told him the whole story, and Lu Chengchuan looked at her closely to make sure she was telling the truth.
"For such a small matter, these nobles are a bit petty."
It was such a trivial matter that he didn't even bother to pay attention to it. However, the nobleman ended up putting him in jail and taking away all his belongings.
"Forget it, let's go out first and make other plans."
Lu Chengchuan shook his head and prepared to take his men away.
Raya was stunned again when she saw this. She looked at the dark corridor outside, pointed outside and said, "Teacher, how do we leave?"
"Leave the same way you came in. I don't think anyone dares to stop you!"
Lu Chengchuan raised his hand and waved it to the side. The iron bars of the cell were torn apart by an invisible force. A sharp creaking sound was heard, and a gap was torn in the iron bars for people to pass through.
"Let's go." Lu Chengchuan walked out first. When he reached the corridor, Raya still didn't respond. Seeing that Raya didn't move, he turned around and asked, "Why, are you used to living here and don't want to leave?"
"Teacher, it's not good for us to go out like this."
"What's wrong with it? It's not you who is in the wrong. We still have to go find that noble later to see if she dares to accept my compensation." Lu Chengchuan didn't care.
Since this world believes that the bigger the fist, the more powerful it is, then he has plenty of reasons to talk about.
If he doesn't handle things properly today, others will think he is easy to bully.
"Let's go. I'm here. Don't be afraid of them."
With Lu Chengchuan's encouragement, Raya also plucked up the courage to walk out of the cell. She had been really scared for more than a month, so scared that she forgot how strong her teacher was.
When the two men walked out of the prison, the soldiers guarding the prison heard the noise and rushed over.
They rushed in and saw two people standing in the corridor. The soldier knew that someone was trying to escape from prison, so he immediately took out the horn at his waist and blew it to sound the alarm.
In an instant, the entire prison knew that someone was trying to escape, and the quiet prison suddenly became lively.
When the prisoners nearby saw the two men trying to escape, they immediately stood up and watched. The soldiers picked up their weapons, rushed up and were about to kill the two prisoners who were attempting to escape.
But before they could get close, a strong force pressed down on them, and the soldiers instantly fell to the ground unconscious.
Lu Chengchuan led his men out, and soldiers rushed in one after another, but they were quickly dealt with by Lu Chengchuan and could not even get close.
Soon the two men arrived at the prison gate and the soldiers closed the iron gate, but this could not stop Lu Chengchuan.
