Chapter 445: A Foot Higher in Morality



Looking at the oriole above, he asked curiously: "Do you know it?" The oriole took a deep breath and said, "No, but if I tell you to go down, don't even think about coming up again!" As he was about to trigger the mechanism again, Rong Zhen saw that the huge stone was about to fall down, so he quickly propped it up with one hand.

Seeing that there was another mechanism next to him, he triggered it, used the power of the hidden weapon to push up the boulder, and flew forward using Qinggong. Seeing Huangli holding a sharp sword and trying to stab him, he stabbed the hidden weapon into her chest before she did.

Huang Li vomited a mouthful of blood, knelt beside him, and looked at him with his eyes wide open.

It was as if he was still saying why did you want to kill me.

Rong Zhen packed up his things and left without saying a word. The next morning, Rong Zhen walked on the street and found many human heads hanging at the city gate. The bodies had almost been dried in the sun.

According to inquiries from the people nearby, it turned out that the Nangong Mansion now had solid evidence that they had been having an affair with the Zoroastrians, which was why they had suffered such a hardship.

Looking at the crowd gathered under the city wall observing the corpses, he frowned in pity.

On the other side, Gu Yunru was not idle either. After arriving at Sima Mansion with Shu'er and Wu Liang, they did not find the so-called dungeon, nor did they find the whereabouts of Rong Zhen. They walked on the street. Thinking of this, Shu'er could not help but sigh.

"We have been searching for a whole day and night, but we haven't found Brother Rong's whereabouts in Sima Mansion. Has he been rescued by someone?" Shu'er's bold guess was not agreed by Gu Yunru.

"Sima Bo's death was really a coincidence. I heard that Sima Bo was with a woman named Huang Li before he died. It should be Huang Li who killed him and took Rong Zhen away.

But what was the purpose of her taking Rong Zhen away?" Wu Liang was a little absent-minded as he listened to the discussion between the two girls. He had no interest in not finding Rong Zhen, but in order to make Gu Yunru happy, he would rather make concessions.

Rong found a tavern and wanted to go in to eat something to fill his stomach. Since he didn't have any money with him, he had to ask a beggar for two copper coins.

"I'm so hungry. Let's eat something before we continue looking. The person should be in Taocheng. Maybe someone there knows where the oriole has gone." Shu'er was analyzing the situation with everyone. Wu Liang felt that there was some truth in what she said, so they went to a tavern to eat something.

At this moment, Rong was on a table nearby, but the three of them didn't notice him.

Just when everyone was eating with peace of mind, a group of soldiers suddenly surrounded the door with several portraits in their hands. It turned out that they wanted to find the three people who had robbed the execution ground.

However, the three people at that time were all in disguise, and even the portraits were drawn according to their attire on that day, so it was impossible to tell that they were the three of them.

Shu'er couldn't help but chuckle and said, "These guys are so stupid that they can't even tell whether the other person is a man or a woman, yet they come here with a portrait to look for someone openly." Several soldiers came in and looked at them one by one. Those who they thought didn't look like the person in terms of figure and appearance, they hurried aside first.

He came to Gu Yunru's side and stared at the portrait for a long time. Gu Yunru looked at him seriously, and sometimes they even interacted with each other through eye contact.

"Take them away!" Shu'er and Gu Yunru were both speechless. The portrait clearly showed a big man with a beard and a hat, so how could he tell it was them at a glance?

It turns out that this group of officers and soldiers who are looking for someone are not ordinary people, but people with special skills. They can recognize the wanted criminal in the portrait by looking at the bones and eyes. These officers and soldiers all have special skills. If they go out to look for someone, no matter who you are, they can recognize you. Gu Yunru is still one step behind.

"Hey, what grounds do you have for arresting us?" Shu'er still wanted to fight to the death, and wanted to see what excuses these people would use. Wu Liang had already grabbed the sword in his hand, but he didn't expect that the official behind him saw it and immediately snatched the sword from his hand.

"Don't bother Gongban, come back with us. You will know after you get there!" Rong Zhen raised his eyes lazily, and didn't expect it was Gu Yunru and Shu'er, so he drew out the hilt of the sword and fought with these officers and soldiers.

The people in the tavern were so frightened that they fell to the ground and ran away, without even paying for their tea. The owner's heartbroken voice could be heard.

"A Zhao, it's you!" Gu Yunru was pulled into Rong Zhen's arms. Her heart started pounding when she saw Rong Zhen again. She didn't know how long she had been looking for him. She didn't expect to meet him today.

"Follow me quickly!" As he said this, he took Shu'er, Wu Liang and others and climbed out from behind the window. A team of soldiers chased after them and summoned most of the soldiers in the yamen to catch up.

"Chase them quickly!" Shu'er could still hear the scolding of the officers and soldiers behind her. If they wanted to escape, they had to split into three groups.

"Yun Ru, Brother Rong, you two should run together now. Brother Wu Liang and I will meet up at the old inn."

"Okay, let's run towards Southwest Street!" Several people discussed a route. Wu Liang ran east first, while Shu'er ran south. The two of them ran straight in one direction and ran to a house selling tofu. Rong Zhen took her over the wall and hid inside.

Unexpectedly, he fell into the pigsty. Gu Yunru's eyes rolled up due to the smoke. She held his arm tightly, fearing that he would run away.

"Great, I finally found you. Don't let me go next time, okay?" Gu Yunru said this to him, looking reluctant. Rong Zhen nodded, chuckled and said, "Don't worry, there's no way I'd let you go."

The two of them looked at each other affectionately, and were suddenly splashed with slop. Gu Yunru pinched her nose to suppress her nausea, and the old lady who poured the water was frightened when she saw the two of them hiding in the pigpen. She screamed instantly, and the noise was deafening to the two of them.

Rong Zhen quickly stood up and covered her mouth and nose, saying, "Madam, we are just taking shelter here for a while and will leave soon. Don't shout yet. It will be bad if you are implicated."

Seeing the two people dressed strangely, the aunt frowned.

"Wuwu..." The auntie stammered, and Rong Zhen couldn't hear clearly what she was saying. Only then did he realize that he had covered her mouth too tightly.
