Let’s talk about Zi Shi.
By the way, Sun Yixie and Chunkong walked towards the entrance of the courtyard one after the other.
At this time, the three guards from the Tianqi Gang outside the door were discouraging Sun Yixie's "Long Yang's habit" in a low voice. Unexpectedly, they suddenly came out with a lantern.
The three people were chatting enthusiastically, but when they saw Sun Yixie, they quickly stopped talking and smiled at the latter.
Naturally, Sun Yixie had already heard the conversation between the three of them. He took advantage of this and asked, "You three... what are you talking about so happily? Let me listen too?"
As he spoke, he took a few steps forward and naturally walked to the opposite direction to the courtyard gate, attracting the attention of all three people.
The three guards also felt guilty. After all, they had just spoken ill of others behind their backs, and now they were being asked about them on the spot, and they were somewhat nervous...
However, their nervousness did not last long, because when their attention was attracted by Sun Yixie, Chunkong came silently behind them and knocked them unconscious from behind with two palms. The third person just had time to turn around and before he understood what was happening, he was also knocked down with a palm.
In this way, the four guards in this courtyard were dispatched without any warning.
Sun Yixie also said goodbye to Chunkong for the time being. The troops were divided into two groups. One went to the warehouse to steal the shackle keys, while the other was preparing to rescue people and raid the other four courtyards where the hostages were held.
Of course, even though Sun Yixie has now collected all four keys to the rooms in the four rows of the courtyard, he does not intend to release everyone immediately; because when there are too many people, it is easy for problems to arise. There was no guarantee that everyone would be as enlightened, smart, and cooperative as Chun Kong... Therefore, he planned to deal with all the guards in these yards before opening the door to let people go.
But he had already decided on the second person to be released.
In fact, when he was in Chunkong's room just now, he had already asked Chunkong who were locked up in the courtyard and the location of those people's rooms.
Sun Yixie definitely didn't know about this, because he was not present when the person was imprisoned, but Chunkong was present... As mentioned before, Chunkong is very smart and has a good memory. As long as he has seen things He would have some impression, so before he was put into a cell, he should have seen and noted down the conditions of some people's imprisonment.
Sure enough, after Sun Yixie asked, Chunkong recalled a lot, and the most important thing was... he remembered which room Lei Buji lived in.
As the saying goes, no coincidence can tell, Lei Buji happened to be locked up in this courtyard, and because he was in a coma and was the first to be carried into the room in front of everyone, he couldn't remember where he was. It’s very difficult...
With such a good martial arts and obedient younger brother, Sun Yixie would not consider others anymore.
As soon as Chun Kong left, Sun Yixie went straight to Lei Buji's room. After two attempts, he chose the correct key and opened the door.
After all, Lei Buji had a good foundation in martial arts, and the drug could not keep him down all night. He was already awake at this moment. When he saw the door being opened, Lei Buji jumped up, wanting to pounce on the people who came in.
I have mentioned Sun Yixie's caution at this moment more than once. He has always been the only one who beats his teammates, and no teammates beat him, so he naturally guarded against this move.
"Buji, are you awake?" After opening the door, Sun Yixie stood outside the door without leaning forward.
Lei Buji was hiding by the door with his back against the wall. When he heard Sun Yixie's voice, he stupidly ducked to the door without even thinking that it might be a trap.
"Brother Sun! Are you okay?" Lei Buji looked overjoyed and raised his voice to Sun Yixie.
Some people may wonder why he reacted like this now after being ganked by Sun and Huang before.
It's very simple... because he didn't see who intercepted him at that time; at that time, all Lei Buji's attention was on Shen Youran and Gu Qiying, and Sun Yixie's hand blocking the waist and grabbing seamlessly connected with Huang Donglai's confusion. The medicine on the face... came so fast and cooperated so well that Lei Buji passed out without even seeing Mao Mao.
"Shut up! Get in quickly!" Sun Yixie knew what was going on as soon as he saw Lei Buji's expression. He quickly pushed Lei Buji into the room, pushing him down while pushing. The voice cursed, "Why are you so damn loud? Are you afraid you won't attract people?"
To make a long story short, after being scolded by Sun Yi for a few words, and then listening to the other party explain the ins and outs of the matter, Lei Buji finally understood the current situation.
After hearing the cause and effect, Lei Buji naturally no longer cares about Brother Sun and Brother Huang's previous behavior of putting him down. He is not a fool... he knows that he is saving himself.
During the explanation process, Sun Yixie was not idle. He took the time to break the shackles on Lei Buji's hands and feet, and asked Lei Buji to use cloth strips to fix the broken chains like Chunkong. Well, so as not to look like jingle bells when you walk.
After the two of them left the room, the first thing they did was to throw the four fainted Tianqi Gang guards into Lei Buji's room and lock the door.
Sun Yixie did not silence them, because he had vaguely guessed that these people were probably threatened by the Bliss Gu and then worked for Shen Youran, but he would not spend time specifically to instigate them, because there were still too many variables. More--if any of these people are sincerely loyal to Shen Youran, or have already done too many evil things and cannot look back, your instigating him to rebel is like planting a time bomb in your camp.
Afterwards, Sun Yixie took Lei Buji to another courtyard next door. I won’t go into details about the process of raiding the guards. Basically, it was the same routine as the first courtyard. Anyway, Sun Yixie first Go up to attract attention, while another person launches a surprise attack in the dark, sometimes using drugs, sometimes not, just adapt to different situations.
About a quarter of an hour later, a total of twenty guards in the five courtyards lay down.
At this time, they returned to the first yard and started to open the door to let people in.
Sun Yixie had already greeted Lei Buji, and the first thing he did after opening the door was to explain - "Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai pretended to seek refuge with Shen Youran before, so they can save you now"; this is indeed what must be conveyed. Otherwise, if some people don't know the situation and come out and attack Brother Sun, it will be unbearable.
The second thing I want to convey is: the key to the shackles will be available soon. Everyone who comes out of the room must not act without authorization. Acting without authorization will only cause everyone's escape to fail, so whoever tries to escape alone , Could you please go up and beat him to death together.
Sun Yixie and Lei Buji each opened a row of doors first and released about twenty people. Those who were released first were responsible for explaining the two things mentioned above to those who came out later. In this way There is no need to waste the time of the person holding the key.
When most of the people in the first courtyard had come out of their rooms and had a general understanding of the current situation, Chunkong finally came back.
His martial arts were already very good, and with the detailed map and sentry information provided by Sun Yixie, he was able to avoid being discovered along the way; the key to the warehouse also played a very important role, allowing Chunkong's entry and exit became more abundant.
At this time, there are ten keys to the shackles that Chun Kong got back, but if you look closely, you will find that... all ten keys are actually the same.
Of course, this is normal. This thing is similar to a modern handcuff key. One key can open a series...
Originally, as long as things like shackles are mass-produced, it is impossible to have a separate key for each set, which would be very troublesome if one is lost; and making ten identical keys is not enough. Just to make it faster when opening the lock. If you only hit one person, it would take two minutes to open a pair of shackles, and it would take you nearly seven hours to open the shackles of two hundred people. That is too stupid.
"After everyone has unlocked their shackles, they pass the keys to those who have not yet opened the keys. After a while, those who have handed over the keys will climb over the wall from the north. There are only two guards over there. Take care of it yourself when you pass by... Everyone You are a master. You don't need me to teach you how to make the guards lie down before they can call for help." Sun Yixie saw that everyone was almost uncuffed, so he stood in the crowd and raised his voice slightly and said, "After we get out, go to Chengxi Oil Wait near the street behind the salt store. If nothing else happens, Huang Donglai will come to meet you later with the antidote to "that thing" you took. "
Unknowingly, Sun Yixie seemed to be the commander-in-chief of everyone present, including the martial arts seniors, who were all following his arrangements.
But this is logical. On a large scale, Sun and Huang are their saviors. On a small scale, only Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai have made a plan to deal with this situation early; at least Before the Bliss Gu was lifted, it was much more reliable to follow Sun Yixie's instructions than to mess around on their own.
"Oh, by the way, after you escape, don't run around, let alone get close to the city wall... Shen Youran and the Lord have deep roots in Luoyang. Even if they don't collude with the government, the officers and soldiers guarding the city might. They have their spies, and as long as one person escapes and is discovered, then all of us will have to follow suit." Before sending away those gangsters, Sun Yixie did not forget to give repeated reminders and warnings, and repeatedly emphasized The concept of "everyone".
He knows very well that people's hearts are unpredictable, and only by using this binding method to let these gangs supervise and restrain each other can we better prevent someone from acting without authorization.
At three o'clock in the morning, most of the people in the first courtyard were gone, and only four people, Sun Yixie, Chunkong, Lei Buji and Liu Yikong, were left.
Why did Liu Yikong stay too? Because he said that he admired Sun Yixie very much, felt that he had misunderstood Brother Sun before, and was very ashamed, so he wanted to do his part and help them continue to save people.
So, these four people went to the second courtyard according to the same routine as the first courtyard.
After becoming familiar with the process, the time required to repeat the process was much shorter. It only took them ten minutes to complete the second yard, and several seniors and peers successively joined in to rescue and explain. Work.
After all... there are good people in this world after all, and there are quite a few of them. There are indeed people who can risk life and death and try their best to help others in critical moments.
When there are more people, they can be divided into several groups and act in synchrony, so the people in the third, fourth, and fifth courtyards are almost all rescued at the same time.
It is worth mentioning that Bai Ruhong was also locked up in one of the courtyards, but he was not shackled, just tied with a rope, and until he was carried away by several martial arts comrades, he did not react at all like a vegetable. nothing.
At the end of the day, the nearly two hundred prisoners were almost evacuated.
They were all masters of Qinggong, and had Sun Yixie's intelligence support. This resulted in the Tianqi Gang's defense system having no effect at all, and they were simply concentrated and broken through.
Shen Youran and Gu Qiying were still drinking tea, chatting, and thinking about the future in the study. They had no idea that the martial arts people they had finally gathered together had escaped from the Gu Bell's range, let alone that there was no return to the building. He had been "stolen", and all his money had been emptied by Huang Donglai.
What's even worse is that their misfortune tonight is far from over yet...
After sending away all the hostages, including those who assisted him, Sun Yixie still had one thing to do - go back to the room to get his luggage.
His and Huang Donglai's carry-on luggage, as well as his trident, were still in the room; it was just luggage, and he couldn't abandon the family weapons.
It was no big deal to go back to the room. Sun Yixie had a pass, and everyone in the Tianqi Gang knew what he was doing before, so no one would doubt him when he walked back to the room in a big way.
The problem was how he could run away with his luggage and trident.
No matter how powerful you are, if you are leaving in the middle of the night with two bags and weapons on your back, they will have to stop you; even if they don't fall out with you, they will at least delay you for a while and report to the gang leader that you are not the right one. ?
But to solve this problem, there is actually a very direct way: Sun Yixie only needs to call on the help of a few thugs who just helped release the people, and force their way back together with him, get their luggage, and then break out.
However... there are certain hidden dangers in this choice. If something goes wrong along the way and Shen Youran is alarmed, then Sun Yixie might be able to run away in the chaos, but as soon as Shen Youran activates the Gu Bell, none of the people who helped him can escape. .
So Sun Yixie finally chose a safer method that only required him to take some risks - setting fire.
He waited alone in the dark for a while, and when those who had been infected by the Bliss Gu had run away, he started setting fires everywhere.
For Sun Yixie, setting fire to the Tianqi Gang was as easy as defecating in his own home.
He and Brother Huang have been living here for less than half a month with the purpose of checking out the sites. They already know the terrain here very well, such as firewood sheds, kitchens, fodder rooms, granaries... everything that can light a fire, as well as flammable materials. They all know a lot about the houses that are piled up in large numbers.
Also, do you think Sun and Huang only created a key to the warehouse? They can steal and expand, so how can they only build one place?
At this moment, Brother Sun shows his belt and has seven keys on his hip. He can go wherever he wants. There is no door in the Tianqi Gang that he cannot open.
Ever since, just when Chou Shi arrived and the various positions in the Tianqi Gang were preparing to change shifts, flames started to appear one after another in various places in the gang... I can't compare the efficiency of fire-fighting in those years. Let's talk about it. Sometimes a thunderstorm can burn down a large family, let alone such an efficient act of arson.
But when the Tianqi Gang was in chaos and all the disciples left their posts and ran around to put out the fire, Sun Yixie sneaked back to his room, took his luggage and weapons and slipped out.
In this situation, it doesn't matter even if he is seen by others. With his humanity, as long as he says that he is saving property, others will probably think it is reasonable.
…………
At the same time, on a roof across the street from the Tianqi Gang's chief helmsman.
Two people were standing there, leisurely looking at the gradually brightening firelight and rising smoke in the buildings ahead.
Both of them were dressed in dark-colored flying fish suits, with embroidered spring knives on their waists. They were neatly packed up and down, and their bodies were strong and straight.
"The show tonight is really exciting." After watching the fire for a while, the shorter one finally said.
"The show is good, but it's a pity that such a big foundation of Zhengyi Sect will be destroyed in one day." The tall man next to him continued.
"Ha... isn't it a good thing for us to be destroyed?" the short man said.
"The best thing is to get rid of Shen Youran and Gu Qiying and seize all the wealth and secret treasures they have accumulated over the years." The tall man said.
"But even if I snatch it away...it's not yours." The short man said again.
"But I have a share of the credit for robbing these things..." The tall man paused, "You also have a share."
"Hahaha..." the short man continued with a smile, "I can give you all the credit, I just want to complete the task."
"No, you are just talking lightly and pretending to be frivolous... But I know that you don't want credit and don't care about tasks..." The tall man said this and glanced at the short man next to him, "You care. It’s justice.”
"Ha...that's true..." The short man was still smiling, very playfully, but he seemed to be hiding something, "Are you looking too high on me?"
"It doesn't matter if you don't admit it, I'll be more frank than you..." the tall man continued, "I want credit, and I want to use my credit to exchange for glory and wealth."
"Then I'll leave everything to you, okay?" the short man asked.
"Okay." The tall man agreed happily, "Just in time, you can take a trip to the Dusi Guards Station now and ask them to put out the fire and clean the ground so as not to burn the people around you. I... go and pay attention to that Shenmen Lord and Lord Gu.”
"Well..." When the short man responded, he had already turned around, "You should be more careful."
