Mr. Yangui

Chapter 54
The news of Li Wuchang's kidnapping did not spread, only a few people knew about it, and the reactions of various forces were mixed.

Li Hu reported the whole incident to Li Lingwu, and suggested that more men should be sent into the dense forest to wipe out the Hanshui gang and rescue Li Wuchang after making full preparations.

Li Lingwu was silent for a long time, and said lightly: "Leave this matter alone for the time being."

Li Hu, Li Qing, and Li Zhongyue were very puzzled.

Li Lingwu explained: "Today, His Majesty hinted to me that there is no need to have too much trouble with the Hanshui Gang, because the Hanshui Gang is too involved."

Li Hu said indignantly: "The last time the Hanshui Gang made troubles and kidnapped the former imperial court official, they were suppressed. This time we kidnapped our Li family's children, and the reason is unknown. Are they going to be suppressed again?"

All the old gangs in Xiangyang City have made great achievements in the past and helped Yan Taizu. After Yan Taizu took over the world, he has always given preferential treatment to Xiangyang City, and the big old gangs also helped the court when the court was in trouble. , deeply loved by the royal family.

However, in recent years, the major gangs in Xiangyang City have gone too far.

Take the Hanshui Gang as an example. On the surface, they are engaged in water transportation business, but secretly they are engaged in smuggling of goods, especially the salt goods business. There is no court law in their eyes.

It is no secret to the Li family that many officials have been bribed by the Hanshui Gang.

For some unknown reason last winter, the Hanshui gang kidnapped the former court secretary Lang, who was decapitated in a different place, but he was suppressed, and only a few small miscellaneous fish from the Hanshui gang were confessed.

Now I don't know why, the people from the Hanshui Gang kidnapped the Li family's children. Just a few days after the incident, even the Holy Master hinted to Li Lingwu to release the Hanshui Gang. What's going on?

Li Qing asked cautiously: "Brother, what about impermanence?"

Everyone knows very well that the Hanshui gang's style of doing things, if the Li family doesn't send someone to rescue Li Wuchang, Li Wuchang is likely to die.

Everyone looked at Li Lingwu, hoping he had a good idea.

Li Lingwu sighed, and said: "It was Lord Feng who spoke, and His Majesty made a decision after deliberating for a long time."

Lu Yuanfeng, the younger brother of the Holy Lord, is notoriously unambitious, greedy and lustful, and has a close personal relationship with the leader of the Hanshui Gang, and receives a lot of benefits from the Hanshui Gang every year.

It seems that Lu Yuanfeng spoke for the Hanshui Gang, in order to keep the third son of the Hanshui Gang leader, sell the Hanshui Gang's face, then the Hanshui Gang will definitely respect him more, and it is a good plan.

Li Hu said helplessly: "Since Prince Feng came forward, it seems that the Li family can only let that group of people survive, but what should I do about impermanence?"

If there is no pursuit by the Li family, Zhu Changxing and the others will be fine as long as they walk out of Nanshan.

Although I don't know why the Hanshui gang kidnapped Li Wuchang, but just seeing that they dispatched so many masters, they must have bad intentions, and Li Wuchang is not a good-tempered person, so there is no reason for nothing to happen.

Li Zhongyue interjected: "Should we send a group of people into the deep forest to find them and negotiate with them?"

Li Lingwu said: "Prince Feng means that the Li family should not send anyone to come forward. After all, the two sides already have enmity, and if they meet, they may cause greater conflict and cause more casualties. As for impermanence, Lord Feng promised that he will send someone Jinshan personally negotiated with Zhu Changxing and the others, if he hadn't met them, he would personally come forward to communicate with Zhu Changxing and his group when they return to Xiangyang."

Li Zhongyue said disdainfully: "Can you believe the words of Lord Feng?"

Li Lingwu sighed and remained silent.

Lu Yuanfeng's chest thumped loudly beforehand, but he often contradicted his promise.

What's more, the chances of Li Wuchang being able to reach Xiangyang City alive are not high. As far as they know, Li Wuchang suffered serious internal injuries before, and now he is living in a dense forest. He does not know martial arts, so how can he survive? .

Li Qing said: "Then we can only resign ourselves to fate."

Li Hu sighed: "Impermanence...he will definitely blame us in the future."

The crowd was silent.

Is it strange or not, can he come back?
……

Li Mansion, the side hall of the East Courtyard.

Le Dong looked at Mrs. Zhang and said congratulatoryly: "That kid will probably be buried in the dense forest of Nanshan this time, so Madam should have fulfilled her wish."

Mrs. Zhang snorted coldly, and said: "It's really cheap for him. I wanted to see him make a fool of himself in the martial arts conference."

Turning to Steward Qian, he said, "How is the matter you were asked to investigate?"

Steward Qian bowed his head and replied: "Mrs. Dongli Restaurant was indeed funded by that kid. The master didn't show up, and he didn't have any other big figures to support him. Only two young people from Chang'an also contributed a small amount of money, and they have no background."

Zhang said with a sneer: "Extorting money from my natal family and using it to open a restaurant is such a cheap thing. You go to Zhang's mansion to find Yan Bo and tell him that now there is a chance for revenge."

After a pause, he continued: "Whether it's intimidation, temptation, or other schemes, we must drive away the other two partners and get Dongli Restaurant. Put such a restaurant that is making money every day in one What a joke in the hands of the bastard, not to mention that the bastard is about to die."

……

Xuanpingfang.

Jiang Ming looked at Zhao Xun, and said: "The situation is like this now, Leng Shao's uncle Li Qing has already hinted at me, saying that it is not convenient for the Li family to come forward in the future, and we can only resign ourselves to fate."

Zhao Xun sneered, and said, "Really so ruthless? If the Li family doesn't show up, wouldn't Leng Shao really be buried in Nanshan?"

Jiang Minglun said: "No matter what, I will definitely look for it."

He is a man of loyalty, Li Wuchang once helped him, and now he is pulling him to make money, but he has not paid back. Now that Li Wuchang is in trouble, how can he sit idly by.

Zhao Xun nodded and said, "I'll go with you, so I can take care of you."

Jiang Minglun shook his head, and said: "Your injury is not healed, so don't go there... Don't frown, you are not idle, and when Leng Shao opened the restaurant, he explained that he had offended many people before. , someone will definitely find trouble for the restaurant, and now that Young Master Leng is not here, you should stay and pay more attention, so that no one will take advantage of the loophole."

Zhao Xun thought for a while, nodded, agreed, and then sighed: "I don't know how Leng Shao is now, whether his internal injuries have recovered, and it's scary to think about being in that ghostly place again in such a cold day."

Li Wuchang is really not doing well now.

The group of them seemed to have entered a big labyrinth, which was overgrown with thorns, and there was no way at all. They needed to use sabers to open the way, and they also had to prevent poisons or beasts that appeared at any time, and sometimes there were various traps.

In just one and a half days, three brothers died unexpectedly.

In addition to Li Wuchang, Zhu Changxing's gang has a total of 18 people. Li Hu hacked to death two brothers in the jungle outside the dense forest. Two of them died of poisoning and two of them were buried in a deep pit.

The dry food had already been eaten, and he was tired and hungry. What's more terrible, it was raining lightly at this time, which really didn't come singly.

Li Wuchang was fine, with such an overbearing fire-type zhenqi protection body as "Cangyan Jue", he didn't feel particularly cold.

Others are simply miserable.

Under such a bad situation, Zhu Changxing became very sensitive. He no longer had the demeanor he had in Chang'an City. Li Wuchang's eyes were very unfriendly, as if he would kill someone at any time.

There was not enough dry food, so naturally there was no share for Li Wuchang. Li Wuchang didn't eat all day and night, and he was so hungry.

Li Wuchang was thinking about his escape plan.

I can't wait until the moment when I get out of the dense forest. If there is no way out in another day, Zhu Changxing will collapse and go crazy. Li Wuchang can't guarantee that Zhu Changxing will not do anything.

Also, Li Wuchang had to eat. After Zhu Changxing and his group finished their dry food, they could only dig some plant roots to satisfy their hunger.

If this continues, you will definitely starve to death.

I can't die, I must not die, I have to find a chance to run away, Li Wuchang secretly frightened and determined.

Another day passed, and everyone still didn't find a way out. Instead, they seemed to have entered deeper into Nanshan.

The light rain was still falling, and the forest with little light in the first place became darker. There was no fire, and everyone was hungry and cold. After another day of exhaustion, they didn't even have the strength to dig out the roots of the plants, so they just fell asleep leaning against each other in twos and threes. up.

After a while, there was a snoring sound.

The opportunity finally came.

Li Wuchang opened his eyes, used his eyesight enough, and found that everyone was sleeping. Zhu Changxing and Mr. Ye were leaning on a big tree, and some of the others were lying directly on the ground, and some were leaning against each other, supporting each other. sleep.

His hands were tied with a rope, and there were two people beside him, who were supposed to hold Li Wuchang, but now they had fallen asleep.

There are big trees on three sides here, and the front looks like a slope, covered by withered grass, I don't know how high it is.

Just a fight.

Li Wuchang stood up, dizzy for a while, grandma was a bear, hungry, her eyes were green, her legs were shaking.

He took a few deep breaths, shook his head vigorously, forced himself to pull himself together, observed the crowd carefully, tiptoed to the side of the slope, and glanced down, but couldn't see anything clearly.

Grandma is a bear, the bird is in the sky after death, and she will not die for thousands of years.

Li Wuchang shook his heart, closed his eyes, and jumped down.

The sound came out, waking everyone up.

"What's going on?" Zhu Changxing was the first to wake up, yelling, thinking that some beast was coming.

The others were also awakened by fright, and they drew out their weapons one after another, looking around.

"Third Young Master, it's not good, that boy Li Wuchang is gone." The subordinate in charge of guarding Li Wuchang shouted.

"What did you say, explain clearly, it's gone? What's going on?" Zhu Changxing was furious.

Everyone hurriedly looked for it, and searched in this small area, but found nothing.

Mr. Ye walked to the edge of the slope, looked at the messy weeds, and shouted to everyone: "Come here quickly, that kid should have jumped from here."

Zhu Changxing came over to take a look, and said sternly: "Good boy, dare to do this with me."

His eyes glared angrily, and he continued: "Look around to find a way, we must go down and catch that brat."

The slope looked a bit steep, Zhu Changxing didn't dare to just jump down like that, he ordered his men to find a way, and at the same time, his heart was full of anger.

All the subordinates made promises one after another, all of them gritted their teeth.

They were in such a mess all because of Li Wuchang, now that the master has run away, one can imagine the anger in their hearts.
