Just as the minions were talking to the bandit leader, Lu Qingtang took the opportunity to steal the hairpin.
She knew that Wen Zhan was good at picking locks. This hairpin was thin and long, so she should be able to give it a try.
After a while, a young man hurried over and called away the man guarding the cell. At this moment, the cell was no longer guarded. Lu Qingtang then handed the hairpin to Wen Zhan.
As expected, Wen Zhan lived up to his expectations. He pried open the lock of the cell door and led everyone to escape through the secret passage. In order to prevent being caught again, all of them took weapons for self-defense.
Although we know that there are officers and soldiers coming to attack the stronghold, we don't know whether they are enemies or friends, let alone whether they will win. We should save ourselves.
The secret road is at the back of the mountain stronghold. It was originally intended for bandits to escape. This road is a small road leading to the back of the mountain. It passes through a cave. Only one person can pass through it at a time, and one has to bend down to walk through it. Kou Dan held Mo Yue in his arms, Lu Qingtang held Mo Bao, and Su Mu held Mo Mo. It was even more difficult for the three of them to walk.
Even so, they gritted their teeth and persisted. After finally walking out of the cave, they found a mountain trail.
It was getting dark now, and Wen Zhan told everyone that there was a cliff next to them, and they must walk close to the mountain wall, otherwise they would die or be injured if they fell.
Lu Qingtang looked at the moonlight in the sky and stepped on the rocky path. He immediately changed his position and carried the calligraphy treasure on his back, so that he could easily leave the path under his feet. Kou Dan and Su Mu also followed suit, which would also save some energy.
Shui Yunxi and Yu Bai followed the three of them one after another, carefully protecting the three of them.
Because it was too dark, several of the prisoners at the forefront had already fallen. Hearing their screams under the cliff, Lu Qingtang felt extremely nervous, so he acted more carefully.
After a while, they walked out of the cliff and began to go down the mountain road, but after a few steps, they were blocked by a group of people.
Everyone was frightened and hurriedly dodged back, allowing Lu Qingtang to see clearly the face of the leader, who was the second in charge just now.
He was injured and couldn't fight, but why did he appear here? Could it be that he was also running for his life?
No matter how much it is, let’s call it out first!
Under Lu Qingtang's command, the three of them, together with the remaining male prisoners, rushed towards these people.
Lu Qingtang put down the calligraphy treasure on his body to take a breath, and then looked at Zeng Shaoyu aside. Zeng Shaoyu said to her with a proud face: "Did you see it? I said I can escape. This is my ability, my Halo!”
Lu Qingtang looked at him with disdain, "Tsk, what a halo, you think you are the leading actor! You are here all because of my merits. If it weren't for my ability, Lu Qingtang, you would have been thrown down the mountain to feed wild boars!" "
After saying this, the two looked at each other almost at the same time, and both looked shocked.
Lu Qingtang didn't expect that she had actually traveled through time and could still hear the protagonist's words. Is this incredible? Could it be that Zeng Shaoyu is also a modern person?
With this thought in her mind, Lu Qingtang saw surprise on the other person's face again, and then she heard Zeng Shaoyu shouting to her: "Master Tang?"
After hearing these words, Lu Qingtang's heartbeat suddenly stopped, and he was so shocked that he couldn't say a word.
She didn't expect that after traveling so long, she could still hear this nickname, the nickname given to her by that damn bitch.
"Ouyang Ke!" Lu Qingtang couldn't help but speak. She shouted to Zeng Shaoyu, "You are Ouyang Ke!"
Zeng Ke immediately pointed at himself and kept nodding, "It's me, it's me, I'm Ouyang Ke, Master Tang, great, I..."
Before he finished speaking, Zeng Ke hugged Lu Qingtang. He was now much taller than Lu Qingtang. Lu Qingtang suddenly hit his collarbone, which made Lu Qingtang feel stars in his eyes.
However, before she could scream, Zeng Ke screamed and heard Mo Bao yell, "Don't bully my mother!"
Zeng Ke immediately let go of Lu Qingtang and jumped higher than a rabbit.
He covered his thigh with one hand and howled, "Oh, you little bastard, you dare to bite me, it hurts me to death, ah..."
Lu Qingtang burst out laughing when he saw this, and then explained to little Mo Bao, "It's okay, Mo Bao, this is a friend of my mother's. He was very good to my mother in the past and even saved my mother. He is a good person, not a bad person."
Su Mu on the side looked at Lu Qingtang in confusion, "Sister, you said this is your friend, why didn't I know?"
"You only followed my wife after she got married. How would you know?" Kou Dan reminded her from the side.
Su Mu nodded and smiled naively, "Yes, how could I forget this."
Lu Qingtang looked at Shui Yunxi and the others not far away. They were currently fighting fiercely with the second master's men, but the battle was not going well. These people were all masters. Shui Yunxi and the others hadn't eaten for a whole day, and Wen Zhan was injured, so how could they win?
Seeing them retreating steadily, and even two or three prisoners were killed, Lu Qingtang became anxious.
If this continues, they will still have to be captured.
However, things turned out as she expected. In the civil war, first the bandits hit the injured leg, and then Yu Bai was pushed to the ground. Shui Yunxi was also exhausted, not to mention the remaining prisoners.
They defeated the men and then walked over to the women and children.
The women who thought they were being captured were so frightened that they all squatted on the ground holding their heads. Zeng Ke stood in front of Lu Qingtang, but he was also knocked unconscious on the ground. He is a doctor, but he has no strength and has grown so big in vain.
At this moment, only three people, Lu Qingtang and his servant, were born, and they were all exhausted.
Lu Qingtang looked at these vicious bandits and began to feel a little desperate. She didn't expect anyone to save her now, she just hoped that the knife would fall on her faster, so that it would hurt less.
She hugged Mo Bao and Mo Mo beside her, covered their eyes with her hands, and protected them all. She also closed her eyes and waited for the knives in the hands of the bandits to fall on her.
Suddenly, there was a "Zi" sound in his ears, and he didn't know what splashed on his face. Lu Qingtang subconsciously opened his eyes, but he saw that the bandit in front of him had already been shot through the chest with a spear.
The bandit's eyes were wide-eyed, his face was lifeless, blood was pouring out from the hole in his chest, and the tip of his gun was stained red with blood.
Then, the spear was taken back, and with a "bang", the bandit fell straight to the ground, and Lu Qingtang finally saw the owner of the spear clearly.
He was sitting on the horse, his cold eyes full of warmth, but he was much thinner than he was three months ago, and his eye sockets were obviously sunken.
