Traveling through books: Traveling through time with a golden finger to become a soft rice man

Most of those calm mortals were criminals who had committed lighter crimes. This kind of people would usually be released when the new emperor ascended the throne and issued a general amnesty, so they were not in a hurry.

Yang Yuanzu took his stuff and walked straight to the edge of the city wall of the imperial city. Ministers were not allowed to walk around the palace on weekdays. Yang Yuanzu was not very familiar with the roads in the palace and got lost several times.

He had been working as an agricultural officer for more than half a year, and the only area he was familiar with was the area where their office was located.

The walls of the palace were built very high. When Yang Yuanzu looked up from below the wall, it was like looking at a mountain. The key point was that the mountain was straight, which was more difficult than rock climbing in modern times. There was no foothold at all.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one on the city wall, Yang Yuanzu put a rope on the iron claw and threw it upwards with all his strength.

After the iron claw hooked it, Yang Yuanzu pulled it hard a few times, and after making sure it was firmly grasped, he pulled the rope and climbed up.

Yang Yuanzu climbed up the city wall without any protective measures. He sat on the battlement, which was a concave and convex part of the city wall, to rest.

Yang Yuanzu was afraid that someone would come up from the city wall, so after a brief adjustment he tied the rope to the raised part of the parapet. When he climbed up with the help of the hook just now, his heart almost stopped beating, especially because the hook moved a little due to the force.

If you fall from the city wall from this height, you will be crippled if not dead. If you become paralyzed on one side of your body, it would be worse than death.

Yang Yuanzu felt much more at ease after tying the rope to the battlement. He followed the rope all the way down and finally came to the surface of the moat.

It was the last level. Yang Yuanzu secretly encouraged himself in his heart. At this moment, he wished he could punch his golden finger twice. This golden finger was totally useless when he was escaping.

Yang Yuanzu jumped into the river and swam all the way to the shore. When he was about to climb onto the shore, he suddenly felt a sharp pain on his back. Yang Yuanzu reached back and found that he had been shot by an arrow. Then he felt pain from his cold body after being soaked in the river water. Gradually, his hands could no longer hold on to the river bank and he slipped into the water.

The man who shot arrows from the city wall saw that Yang Yuanzu had not surfaced for a long time, so he shot a few more arrows into the water. After waiting on the city wall for a quarter of an hour, his figure slowly disappeared into the night.

On the other side of the moat, a hand stretched out from the water, grabbed a dagger and stabbed it hard at the river bank. After Yang Yuanzu surfaced, he took a few deep breaths and felt pain in his back. He restrained himself and slowed down his breathing.

He was cold and in pain at this time. Yang Yuanzu grabbed the hilt of the sword and used it to climb up the river bank. He only saw the rough figure of the person who shot the arrow at him. Because the distance was too far and the light was dim, and the person was hidden in the dark, Yang Yuanzu did not see the other person's appearance, only a general outline.

Regardless of whether the person who shot the arrow knew him or not, he didn't have any extra thoughts to think about it at the moment. He just wanted to go home as soon as possible. He was worried that he would lose consciousness due to blood loss or cold on the way.

People feel cold after soaking in water, and now they feel even colder after being injured.

The streets of Changjing City were also chaotic, but there were many more places to hide than in the imperial palace. People could hide behind the stalls of small vendors, behind the densely packed houses and buildings, and the debris and haystacks on the road were all good cover.

Yang Yuanzu quietly avoided the crowd and places with noisy sounds, and walked towards You'an Street. Finally, he saw the front door of his house in the faint moonlight at night.

He walked forward and knocked on his door with the handle of the dagger, but there was no sound of the door opening.

Yang Yuanzu was trembling all over at this time. The chill even exceeded the pain in his back. He opened his pale lips and shouted to the yard: "An An..."

The words he shouted were shaky, weak and small. When he lost consciousness, he seemed to hear the barking of a dog and Lin Tingan's voice coming from the yard. The sound was near and far, and seemed to be there and not there.

Lin Ting'an was afraid that the barking of the dog at home would attract soldiers outside, so he brought the dog into the house these days.

He couldn't sleep tonight and when he woke up in the middle of the night he found a dog barking outside. He expected that it was Yang Yuanzu who had returned, but he was afraid that it was the soldiers outside.

Lin Ting'an woke up guard number two and came to the yard with a lantern. The servant guarding the gate was dozing off at the door with a wooden stick in his hand.

Lin Ting'an stepped forward and pushed the servant. The servant woke up in shock and picked up the wooden stick, becoming alert. But when he saw that the person coming was his master, he relaxed again.

"Did you hear anything?"

The servant shook his head.

Lin Ting'an was worried, so he took out the small wooden plug from the cat's eye hole on the door and looked out, but he saw nothing, so he put the plug back in.

Her husband had told her before that their dog would never bark for no reason.

The barking of the dog must mean something is happening outside. Lin Ting'an was worried, so he wanted to open the door and see what was going on despite the servants' dissuasion.

But his last reckless act caused No. 1 to be injured, and he has been lying in bed recuperating ever since. What if he drags others down again this time?

Lin Ting'an asked the servant to wake up the others and bring their weapons to the door.

The servant immediately ran into the house upon receiving the order, and in a moment he appeared in the yard with everyone holding weapons.

"Ting'an, what's going on? Is our house going to be broken into?!" Aunt Chen hid behind the main room door holding the child, "Should I hide the child?"

Lin Ting'an nodded, and Aunt Chen took the child to find a place to hide.

Everyone was on high alert, ready to obey orders from their husband at any time.

"Open the door!"

After Lin Ting'an made up his mind, he spoke, holding a knife tightly in his hand, ready to fight at any time.

After the door opened, there was a man lying on the ground. Lin Ting'an was very familiar with this man. He had put the official robe on the man himself.

"Go call Doctor Luo!"

Before Lin Ting'an could give the order, Xiao Fan had already run to the Luo family next door.

It was not a good idea to stay at the door for too long, so several guards carried Yang Yuanzu into the house, and the servants quickly closed the door and propped it up with a thick piece of wood.

As if worried that the wooden door was not safe enough, the servants brought millstones and cabinets to block the door.

When the Luo family received the news from Yang Yuanzu, Doctor Luo didn't even have time to put on his clothes. He just put on an outer coat and hurried to the Yang family.

As soon as Doctor Luo went out, he saw his son coming out with a medicine box. Neither the father nor the son spoke at this time, but a glance expressed their emotions to each other.

The two men hurried to the Yang family with solemn expressions. When they saw Yang Yuanzu, they noticed that his lips were starting to turn black. They felt his pulse and then ordered someone to boil hot water immediately. The most important thing was to restore his body temperature to normal.

At this time, a stove and a brazier were lit in the room.
