Chapter 42: Escape from the Troubled Times 40
The county government is tight outside but loose inside. At present, the number of people under the wise king is indeed small, and the extra people have been sent out to hold the fort.
The two searched around and found the yard with the largest number of guards. Not surprisingly, that was where Zhou Hean was imprisoned.
Now both of them are bald.
This yard is really airtight, with no gaps for entry at all. Lin Xia was observing here, while Wu Geli went to check around.
"Did you find anything?" Lin Xia asked silently.
Wu Geli pointed to the location of the prison cell in the backyard and said softly, "The personal guards, Zhang Yue and Qi Xiuer."
Lin Xia frowned.
Why is Qi Xiuer here! Hasn't she only been training for three years?
Lin Xia asked Wu Geli to keep an eye on the cell while she ran to check outside the cell. She could indeed hear screams from inside. It was indeed Qi Xiuer and the little genius Zhang Yue.
She could ignore other people, but she couldn't ignore her younger sister who had grown up in her eyes.
Lin Xia calmed down and carefully observed the layout of the scene. She found that this county government office was too small, the prison cells were poorly built, and there were only two people guarding the door. As long as she could get rid of the gatekeepers, she would be sure to rescue them.
But we can't alert the enemy!
Lin Xia returned to her original place in a depressed mood. Wu Geli wondered, did something important happen?
"What's wrong?" Wu Geli mouthed.
Lin Xia shook her head to indicate that it was okay and continued to stare at the yard. Wu Geli was confused, but he focused his attention on what was happening in front of him.
Suddenly, a group of people came and they watched Zhou He'an being taken away.
The two thought for a moment and followed.
Zhou He'an was surrounded by people and seemed to have been given a muscle softening drug, which made the rescue more difficult. There was no chance at all along the way, so they returned to the gate of the yard.
The yard was now quiet. Lin Xia took advantage of the fact that there were few people around and quietly jumped onto the wall and lay in a corner. She saw an old lady sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air. Her heart skipped a beat. She didn't expect that there was someone else in the yard.
On second thought, good opportunity.
He quietly walked around behind the youngest brother and slashed him with a knife. The youngest brother completely collapsed. Lin Xia took out the sleeping pills from the space and fed him some more to ensure that he would not wake up.
Then she changed her clothes and put on makeup. Lin Xia's makeup skills were really good. It should be said that she had great hands-on ability. She mastered this skill very quickly and finally looked 80% similar to the old lady.
Just as she stuffed the old lady under the bed, there was a noise outside. Lin Xia returned to the yard and sat down. A moment later, Zhou Hean appeared with a blood mark on his neck.
Zhou Hean entered the room weakly, and then four guards nodded to Lin Xia in a friendly manner and stood in front of the door.
It seems that this old lady has a high status. Judging from her age and clothing, she is very likely a confidant of the wise king.
Lin Xia stood up, ignored the guards, and walked into the room with court etiquette.
She had seen the old lady enjoying the cool breeze and drinking tea, which was standard royal etiquette, and she had also checked the old lady's health. She was in good shape and was usually an elegant lady.
Seeing Lin Xia enter the room, the guards did not stop her.
Zhou He'an looked at the visitor coldly and found that the visitor was unnaturally silent. Lin Xia made a personal guard gesture. Zhou He'an was surprised for a moment, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he cursed loudly.
"How dare you, a lowly slave, look at me like that? Are you here to see if I'm dead? It's a pity that your master doesn't dare to kill me, you useless dog."
Then she cursed in another old voice: "Bah, bitch! No matter how arrogant you are, you will still be caught. I want to laugh when I see you in such a miserable state."
Lin Xia knew that Zhou Hean was good at ventriloquism, and seeing that it was useful, she also learned it.
She handed over a packet of medicine and mouthed: "Antidotes for softening tendons."
Zhou Hean was so surprised that he took it and smelled it. It was indeed the familiar smell of medicine. He put it away and didn't eat it for the time being.
She immediately said, "Get out of here, you slut, and go get me some food. If I starve to death, that old thing will die too."
"Okay, you still want to eat, right? I'll call you over later and see if you want to eat." Zhou He'an played the role of an old nanny diligently, speaking in a grim tone and laughing sinisterly.
At the same time, Zhou He'an gestured to Lin Xia to go out and find the guard of the compound to deliver food.
Lin Xia understood, she already knew the old lady's voice, and walked out without fear.
Zhou Hean behind him swallowed the medicine in one gulp.
Lin Xia walked to the gate of the yard, knocked on the door, and deliberately said to the outside: "Ask someone to send food over. It's rotten."
The guard understood, walked away, and soon came back to continue his guard.
Seeing that Lin Xia no longer entered the house, the guard in front of the courtyard gate locked the door.
Lin Xia was still enjoying the cool in the yard with a faint, sinister smile on her face.
After waiting for a long time, the sound of the door opening was heard outside. A maid walked in silently with a food box, lowering her head and not daring to look at anyone.
The maid stood aside waiting for Lin Xia's instructions. Lin Xia pointed directly into the house and said, "Send it in."
The guard with the key tactfully opened the door, and the maid obediently led her into the house. Lin Xia followed behind as if she wanted to watch the show.
As soon as he entered the room and turned the door, he knocked the maid unconscious and gently held up the food box and the maid's body.
Zhou He'an silently took the food box and started to make the sound of arranging the dishes. At the same time, Lin Xia had already deftly stripped the maid's clothes off.
She gestured to Zhou He'an, indicating that she would play the role of the old lady.
"Hey, General Xiao Zhou, eat quickly, aren't you hungry?"
While talking, she took out cosmetics and put makeup on Zhou Hean.
"Hmph, you dare to put anything dirty and smelly in front of me, it's really too much!" Then there was a sound of breaking dishes.
Lin Xia quickly put makeup on Zhou Hean. It didn't need to be done delicately and no one would notice it unless they looked up.
"You deserve nothing more than to eat these pickled things."
"You old fellow, go get me some food yourself. If you don't have any, you'll see if you will be punished by the wise king."
"You..." As if he was furious, he walked out of the room with the maid, slammed the door, pointed at the guard holding the lock, and said angrily, "Lock it!"
No one doubted anything, so Lin Xia took Zhou He'an and turned into a blind corner of the yard, then made a gesture towards where Wu Geli was hiding.
Wu Geli didn't expect it was Lin Xia. He took a closer look and saw that the other one was his wife.
She couldn't hide the smile on her face. Lin Xia was really awesome!
Zhou Hean was successfully sent out along the same route they came from. Lin Xia left a message saying "I'm going to the cell" and turned around and disappeared.
She walked around the cell with ease, used a stone to attract a man to come forward to check, covered his mouth from behind and slashed him with a knife, and put the man into the space. After several years of practice, her space was exactly one cubic size. This time, half of the space was left empty. As long as she folded the person, there was more than enough space for him.
Seeing that there was no movement, the other guard shouted the man's name and came forward, but was also killed by Lin Xia, leaving behind two stripped bodies.
At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the mansion. It turned out that a guard in the courtyard heard no movement in the room and became suspicious. He knocked on the door, but no one answered. He opened the door and saw only the maid lying on the ground.
Zhou He'an is gone.
The courtyard was bustling with people searching for people. Lin Xia was just trying to hide the two dead bodies more secretly when she suddenly saw the guards in the mansion running outside. She thought it was Wu Geli helping her to attract attention.
