Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish

The two of them had just put on their clothes when suddenly several ferocious servants rushed in from the door. When they saw Chu Mo, they pointed at his nose and cursed:

"Goudan, do you still remember what the lady said last night? Didn't I ask you to move to the woodshed today? Why, do you need help from our brothers?"

After saying that, he began to throw the clothes and bedding in the room out the door.

Wu Xu saw this and wanted to step forward to stop him, but was held back by Chu Mo.

"Damn girl, I haven't spoken yet, why are you so anxious?"

After saying that, he looked at the servants and said:

"Throw it away cleanly, so you don't have to make two more trips later."

Several servants were stunned when they saw Chu Mo's attitude. Then they remembered the young lady's explanation and just snorted coldly, without any sign of stopping their hand movements.

After Chu Mo waited for them to throw everything out of the room, he silently picked up the candlestick on the table, and then said fiercely to Wu Xu:

"Little girl, follow closely. If you lose it, I won't look for you."

After saying that, he walked outside the house.

The servants crossed their arms and sneered as they watched Chu Mo walk out of the room.

As soon as he left the room, Chu Mo handed the candlestick in his hand to Wu Xu:

"Take it, don't destroy it."

Wu Xu nodded obediently, carefully holding the candlestick with one hand and protecting the candle with the other.

After giving orders to Wu Xu, Chu Mo looked at the servants in the room, and a sneer suddenly appeared on his lips. Then he quickly grabbed the door, closed it directly, and then locked it from the outside.

Then, he threw the bedding aside to the door, grabbed the candlestick from Wu Xu's hand, and threw it down.

In an instant, the quilt on the ground was lit by candlelight.

Several servants in the house had a premonition that something was not good when Chu Mo closed the door. Just as they were about to rush out, they found that the door was locked and wanted to threaten Chu Mo.

However, before they could speak, a fire lit up outside the door.

Several servants saw this and hurriedly called for help.

They now figured out that Chu Mo wanted to burn them to death.

However, it was winter at this time, the weather was dry, and the house was basically a wooden structure. As soon as Chu Mo set the fire, it burned down instantly.

The fire was extremely fast and started to spread in all directions along the door.

Seeing this situation, the shadow guard in the dark rushed over quickly, trying to put out the fire, regardless of hiding his figure.

However, what they didn't expect was that after Chu Mo set the fire, he didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he picked up a bamboo broom by the door, wrapped a few clothes on it, and then held the broom in front of them. Start on fire.

Then, he took Wu Xu and ran outside.

The shadow guards were used to Chu Mo's madness during this period, so they didn't take it too seriously and just wanted to put out the fire as soon as possible.

What they didn't know was that Chu Xin's plan completely went bankrupt because of their negligence.

Chu Mo held up the lit broom, told Wu Xu behind him to follow him, and then galloped along the corridor of the mansion.

Wherever he passed, anything that could be ignited was set alight with his broom.

When the servants and guards in the mansion heard the noise and rushed over, Chu Mo had already lit up half of the backyard.

Dozens of houses were all set on fire, and half of the Chu Mansion was reflected in the flames.

After looking at his masterpiece with satisfaction, Chu Mo took Wu Xu and quickly rushed into a servant's room. He found a set of servant clothes and put them on himself.

Then he smeared a layer of black ash and snow water on his and Wu Xu's faces, and then said to Wu Xu:

"Xu'er, you follow your adoptive father later. I will go to the gate to attract the attention of the guards. You take the opportunity to slip away. Remember, no matter if I follow or not, after you go out, don't look back and find a way to escape from here. , and then wait for the opportunity to return to Lingnan."

When Wu Xu heard Chu Mo calling his name, he was not surprised at all. Instead, he hugged Chu Mo and said:

"Dad, I know you won't forget Xu'er, but we don't have to go through the front door. I know where to go out."

After saying that, he took Chu Mo's hand and ran towards a remote corner.

Soon, the two came to a courtyard wall.

Wu Xu pulled away a bush, pointed at a small hole in the wall and said:

"Dad, you can get out from here."

Chu Mo took a closer look, oh, it turned out to be a dog hole.

Without any hesitation, Chu Mo nodded and said:

"Since we can get out from here, let's go from here."

After saying that, he asked Wu Xu to go out first and he stayed behind.

Wu Xu nodded happily, lay down on the ground, and got out in a few moments.

When Chu Mo saw the other party going out, he said towards the outside:

"Xu'er, this hole is too small and I can't get out. You go get some beggar's clothes and wait for me at the gate. I'll go out to meet you right away."

After saying that, without waiting for Wu Xu to speak, he took out a bag of silver from his arms and threw it out. Then he moved a big stone from the side and blocked the dog hole directly.

This money was taken by me when I was changing clothes in the servant room. I originally wanted to use it as my travel expenses, but now I gave it directly to this little girl.

When Wu Xu outside saw this, he was so anxious that he almost cried.

He wanted to shout, but he was worried about making a noise and attracting the attention of the people around him, so he could only prepare clothes as Chu Mo said.

After sending the little girl away, Chu Mo returned to the servant's house, set another fire, and then rushed towards the gate.

When he was approaching the door, Chu Mo saw that the door was already blocked by people.

It seemed that Chu Xin had discovered that she had escaped and had taken precautions.

Seeing this, Chu Mo did not turn around and leave, but continued to run towards the gate.

When the guard at the door saw someone coming, he immediately raised his vigilance and shouted:

"who!!!"

After Chu Mo rushed to the guard, he bent down, put his hands on his knees, took a few deep breaths, and then said to the guard who was watching eagerly:

"The fire in the backyard is too big. Miss asked you to send two people outside to ask for help. In addition, the little thief Chu Mo is still setting fires everywhere in the house. He is probably looking for opportunities to escape. You must guard the door and never let anyone out. , only allowed in but not allowed out.”

After saying that, without waiting for the guards to reply, he walked straight to the stairs to the side, and then sat down there, as if he wanted to take a rest.

After hearing this, the guard captain hesitated for a moment, then pointed at the two guards and said:

"Go to the city defense camp and transfer some people over. The rest of you should cheer up and keep your eyes open. Don't let anyone go."

After saying that, he approached Chu Mo in a flattering manner and asked:

"Brother, what's going on inside now? Has someone come to rescue Chu Mo?"
