Chapter 67 The Disappearance of the Chen Family
"Captain, the Chen family ran away!"
Captain Sun was drinking, and when he heard this, he immediately spit out the wine and looked at him in shock, "What did you say?"
"The Chen family ran away!"
Qian Yayi repeated it again, and this time Captain Sun finally reacted, "What on earth is going on? Tell me, when did they run away?"
The yamen runner Qian gave a simple explanation. Captain Sun frowned after hearing it and asked, "Are you sure the carriage is empty?"
"Sure!"
"Where's the other carriage?"
Qian Yayi was suddenly speechless. He had not confirmed the other carriage yet. He was suddenly panicked. He thought he might have got the wrong carriage!
This damn Chen family, could it be that they are deliberately trying to trick me?
Captain Sun saw this and still didn't understand. He frowned and said, "Take someone to confirm it again."
Qian, the yamen runner, did not dare to refute and left quickly, fearing that he had made a mistake.
Captain Sun then called over his other men and said, "Gather all the prisoners together and do a headcount."
…………
"Chen Da, what should we do?"
When the Chen family servants saw this, they were suddenly a little panicked, not only because they were surrounded by yamen runners, but also because of what yamen runner Qian had just said, that the master had run away.
They were all confused. How come they didn't know that the master had run away?
You know, they saw with their own eyes the master and the young lady enter the carriage, and they never came out, so how could the master run away?
They have been guarding outside the carriage. If the master and his men came out, how could they not know?
However, it seemed that the yamen runner Qian said that the master had run away only after he lifted the curtain, which means that the master was not in the carriage.
How is this possible!
So, several people were confused and panicked, and didn't know what to do for a moment?
Chen Da was calm after all. He didn't know why the master and the others in the carriage disappeared, but he knew very well that he had to delay time.
Maybe, when the time comes, the master and the others will reappear.
So, Chen Da immediately found Yang Xiaohua and asked, "Is there any medicine that can instantly make people unconscious or unable to move?"
Yang Xiaohua was very smart and immediately knew what they were going to do. She could only help Chen Xue, so she naturally would not refuse.
"Yes, but I can't make it without the herbs."
"this……"
Chen Da also frowned. Now these yamen runners were staring at them. If they dared to leave, this group of people would kill them.
And even if they could leave, they wouldn't be able to find the herbs they needed in a short time, and it would take time to make them.
Not long after, Qian Yayi came back with a group of people.
He went straight to the other carriage because he had already checked the previous one and found no one there.
Seeing that the yamen runner Qian was going to load the carriage with supplies, the Chen family servants naturally refused.
"What are you doing? Do you want to rebel?" The men around Qian Yayi shouted angrily.
"Sir, what happened?" Chen Da still had his wits about him and asked respectfully, "We have always been honest and have done our duty. We haven't done anything wrong, have we?"
However, Yayi Qian ignored him and waved his hand to his men, "Go check on that carriage to see if there is anyone there!"
"stop!"
"stop!"
The master humiliates the minister and he dies.
At this time, the servants of the Chen family no longer cared about whether they were yamen runners or not. In their hearts, the Chen family was the boss and the most important.
Even the emperor does not have much status in their hearts.
"You are rebelling!"
The yamen runner Qian drew his sword and slashed at the servant of the Chen family. The servant dodged quickly, but because he was wearing shackles, it was inconvenient for him to dodge and he was injured. Fortunately, the wound was not deep.
"Chen Liu!"
The others hurried over to help him up, then glared at Qian the yamen runner, and even picked up branches and various other things on the ground and threw them at him.
But Qian Yayi and others didn't care. After all, they couldn't be hurt, except that they could smell a strange smell.
They raised their weapons and started hacking around, forcing the Chen family servants away. As long as they didn't kill them, there was no problem.
Besides, if the Chen family really ran away, these servants would be dead too, so it wouldn’t matter even if they killed them.
More and more yamen runners came over and tried to stop the Chen family's servants, but runner Qian put away his weapon and lifted the curtain of the carriage.
Sure enough, there was no one inside.
Not only that, it was also filled with supplies.
In the past, he would have wanted to snatch it away, but now, he just wanted to confirm whether the Chen family had run away!
"Go tell the captain that the Chen family ran away!"
Qian, the yamen runner, called out to one of his men, and then looked at the first carriage again, wanting to confirm again in case he was mistaken.
"asshole!"
The Chen family was very angry, but was stopped by armed yamen runners.
Bang!
Suddenly, one of the yamen runners seemed to have lost his balance, or for some other reason, he suddenly fell to the ground.
The other yamen runners also felt a little powerless, and even the yamen runner Qian felt a little uncomfortable.
When the Chen family servants saw this, they immediately retreated more than ten steps and stood guard beside the carriage, then they gasped for breath.
Although Yang Xiaohua didn't have this medicine before, she asked her father for it. They used it for self-defense.
Although it cannot kill people, it can make people feel weak.
However, perhaps because of the wind, the effect was not that good, but the yamen runners seemed to be frightened.
"What's going on?"
The yamen servant Qian's face turned pale. Could it be that the Chen family's retribution for pretending to be the Kunshan Immortal had come?
But shouldn't that be the retribution for the Chen family? Why are the Chen family servants fine, but they are not right!
"What did you do?" The yamen runner Qian reacted quickly and thought that it was the Chen family's servants who did it.
"What did we do?" Chen Da looked confused, as if he didn't understand what he said.
Yamen runner Qian snorted coldly, learning his lesson and not moving forward. "Let Chen Yuan come down, or we'll report you to the court and say you're trying to escape. Then it won't just be exile, it'll be the execution of your entire clan!"
"you……"
Chen Da and others changed their expressions. If Qian Yayi really did this, the result might really be as he said, the execution of nine generations of the clan.
But the key point is, they don’t know where the master has gone?
They were sure that the master was in the carriage and had not left, but Qian the yamen runner had said before that the master was not there.
So, how could they dare to ask the master, let alone lift the curtain. If the master was really not there, wouldn’t they be exposed?
Anyway, all they can do now is delay time.
Chen Da refused without hesitation, "Our master has already gone to bed. How dare we disturb him without his order!"
"snort!"
"I think he's gotten away!" Yamen runner Qian snorted coldly. "Think clearly, Chen Yuan has escaped, and you're just scapegoats. He's already abandoned you, so why would you still protect him?"
"If you tell us his whereabouts and help us catch him, you can gain merit and maybe even be spared from death."
Qian the yamen runner tried to persuade people earnestly. He believed that few people could resist such temptation. After all, who would want to die if they could live?
As long as the servants of the Chen family are not fools, they will definitely know what is the best choice.
