Hope for luck

Chapter 76
Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen were a little surprised when they heard the report from the leader in black.

"He didn't do it on purpose, did he? Did he know that we were going to rescue Mr. Wei tonight?"

Geng Gengchen looked at Zhou Zhengxin suspiciously and said.

"It's hard to say, Yu Zongqi happened to fall on this before... You go to find out again, where did these jailers go?"

Zhou Zhengxin said with a serious face, appearing very cautious.

After all, Yu Zongqi died at the hands of Gao Pan, so Zhou Zhengxin naturally didn't want to end up like this.

As he said that, he ordered the leader in black to investigate further.

Just as the leader in black respectfully agreed, and was about to investigate again, another person hurried in from outside the house.

But it was the little clerk next to Zhou Zhengxin, who came to Zhou Zhengxin quickly, and whispered something in Zhou Zhengxin's ear.

After hearing this, Zhou Zhengxin was surprised at first, then overjoyed, he patted the table and said:
"It's God helping me, you don't need to inquire, you can do it now!"

Seeing this, Geng Gengchen was a little surprised. He didn't know what news this little official brought, which made Zhou Zhengxin change his mind in an instant?
He couldn't help but ask:

"Master Zhou, what's the matter?"

"Qingzhuang Town was ransacked by bandits, now Gao Pan took all the county government officials there, as if he was going to find the bandits!"

Zhou Zhengxin didn't hide it either, and said with a smile on his face, his words seemed to be very cheerful, as if the bandit looting the village was something to be happy about.

After hearing what Zhou Zhengxin said, Geng Gengchen also laughed happily:

"No wonder, no wonder these jailers are gone, won't they all be taken by Gao Pan to look for bandits?"

These words made Zhou Zhengxin calm down instantly. Even if he was looking for bandits, the guards in the prison still couldn't move, right?
After thinking about it, Zhou Zhengxin waved his hand and told the leader in black to go to the prison to inquire again, and make a decision after confirmation.

"Master Zhou, why is this?"

Seeing Zhou Zhengxin repeating left and right, Geng Gengchen's eyes froze for a moment.

"It's better to be more cautious. Although Gao Pan is young, he has deep thoughts. Although we are doing business, if we are caught by him, it will be a matter of losing face and face!"

Hearing the words, Geng Gengchen was taken aback again, only then did he realize that his little thoughts were not enough at this moment, so he had to stroke his beard repeatedly:

"It's okay...it's okay, you should be more cautious!"

Immediately, the room returned to normal, and Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen began to wait for the news again.

This time they didn't have to wait long, and the leader in black came back to report after about the time he touched a cup of tea.

"You two adults, the villain can see clearly that there are still no guards in the prison, there will be no mistakes!"

Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen were a little happy after hearing this.

"My lord, my subordinates can also see clearly that Mr. Gao brought about a few hundred people to Qingzhuang Town!"

At this time, Zhou Zhengxin's little official who saved the code also quickly added.

"It seems that the bandits ransacked, and Gao Pan lost his position. He led all the yamen to find the bandits in the middle of the night? How ridiculous!"

After Zhou Zhengxin heard this, he fully believed that Gao Pan had left the county government with people, including the jailers in these prisons.

Perhaps it was because Zhou Zhengxin was too condescending. At this moment, he didn't want to ask the people who were still in the county government office, and he was just doing things based on subjective speculation.

"Hmph, after all, he's still a hairless kid. How could he have seen such a battle? I'm afraid bandits will take his head, so he hurriedly took everyone there. It's ridiculous!"

Geng Gengchen also followed Zhou Zhengxin's words, belittled Gao Pan, and stroked his short beard from time to time, as if they were the most reliable people.

"In this case, let's start to act, otherwise, when he comes back, we won't be so relaxed!"

Zhou Zhengxin waved his hand, pointed at the door and said.

Many men in black were also ready to go. After hearing Zhou Zhengxin's words, they walked outside the house.

"Master Geng, let's go outside the door to welcome Mr. Wei out!"

Zhou Zhengxin looked at Geng Gengchen again and said with a half-smile.

"Master Zhou, please!"

Geng Gengchen understood, and said with a charming smile.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhengxin took the lead and came to the gate of the county government prison, waiting for a group of men in black to rescue Mr. Wei.

"Master Zhou? Master Geng? Stay up late at night, what are you doing at the gate of the prison?"

Just when Geng Gengchen and Zhou Zhengxin were happily thinking about how to compliment Wei Yan'an, a hearty voice came from behind them.

This made Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen scared out of their wits in an instant, turned around quickly, but saw the scene they least wanted to see!
I saw that Gao Pan was looking at the two of them with a serious face at the moment, and behind him was the missing jailer in the prison of the county government!

The faces of the two of them instantly turned pale and translucent, as if they were mourning a concubine, and they were so terrified that they didn't know how to answer Gao Pan.

"...Xiaguan...Xiaguan, I just came out to relax. Unexpectedly, I came to this county government all at once, haha..."

It was Geng Gengchen who came to his senses first, and made up a ridiculous reason in a panic, and it seemed very sincere.

"Hahaha, it's ridiculous. It's already the middle of the night. The two adults go out to relax. You really know how to pick the time. But I don't know. Who are the people who come out to relax in the middle of the night? I hope Lord Zhou and Lord Geng will enlighten me!"

Gao Pan didn't expect that Geng Gengchen would say such ridiculous words in a panic.

As soon as Gao Pan finished speaking, many people were found from the prison wall in front of them, and one of them was the muddle-headed Wei Yan'an.

"Gao Pan, that bastard, dares to imprison Mr. Ben, I will definitely make his life worse than death..."

Wei Yan'an was carried by the man in black on his shoulders and turned over the wall, and he still complained about Gao Pan.

But Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen, after hearing this, their faces were ashen and silent, and they trembled all over, not knowing what to do with themselves!
"My lords, now that we're done, should we settle our rewards?"

And the leader in black came to the two of them respectfully and said, from the beginning to the end, he didn't seem to notice Gao Pan and the others, nor did he notice that Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen looked wrong at this moment.

"Hehehe, I also asked the two adults why they came out late at night to relax, so it was to rescue Young Master Wei?"

Seeing this, Gao Pan looked at Zhou Zhengxin and the others with a cold face and said.

He waved his hand again, and the many guards and officials who followed behind him surrounded Zhou Zhengxin and others.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen's expressions changed again, and now their hearts have become a little numb.

"Both of you, if you really want to protect Young Master Wei, why do you use such means? Tell me directly, and I will give you a little favor and release Young Master Wei!"

At this moment, Gao Pan seemed to be standing on a high place, looking down at Zhou Zhengxin and the others. His indifferent words made Zhou Zhengxin and Geng Gengchen feel the coldness in their hearts, and shivered all over.
