My years as a soldier

Dong Junsheng's death caused quite a commotion in the yard.

Gao Lingcen personally brought a few people out to check, and even the servants of the Gao family who were guards rushed away after hearing the news.Yan Suhe was still protecting his nephew after all, and explained a lot to Yan Zhaozhong.And Hu Yan, who had already touched the side of the hut, took advantage of the fact that there was no one in front of the door, and rushed into the room in a hurry.

Just as Du Honglin heard the commotion of the dead outside, he saw someone coming in, but he was terrified.He thought that Gao Lingcen was going to beat him hard.It wasn't until he saw the appearance of the person clearly that he breathed a sigh of relief.

The person here is thin-skinned and fair-faced, not like a killer, but like a frail scholar!

"Who are you!"

Du Honglin was aggressive.As soon as Hu Yan came in, he rushed to the door, opened the door and looked around. Seeing that there were still many people around in the courtyard not far away, he retracted for a moment, and lowered his voice to Hu Yan. .

"How's it going outside? Where are you from?"

"I……"

Hu Yan looked at the appearance of ghosts and ghosts in front of him, and he didn't dare to express his opinion easily, so he simply skipped this section.

"People from the Gao family surrounded the outside, and now it seems that someone died in the courtyard."

"Did someone die? Who died?" Du Honglin suddenly became nervous.

"Looks like a soldier."

"Who killed that?"

"I didn't see it, but people from the Yan family and the Gao family were present. Why were you locked up here?"

"I..." Du Honglin rolled his eyes when he heard his words, "Little brother, I don't think you are from the Gao family. Where are you? Man, I think we two... or?"

He actually wanted to win over Hu Yan.

"I'm not from the Gao family, but you..."

Hu Yan could hear what this person meant, but he was still not sure of the identity of the person in front of him, so he naturally spoke with some precautions.

"Don't believe me if you tell me. I am Du Honglin, the magistrate of this county. Little brother, if you help me out, the Japanese officials will definitely repay you."

"Are you the county magistrate?"

Hu Yan was quite surprised. He knew that Yan Zhaozhong was going to win over the county magistrate, but he didn't expect that he would take the lead.Outside, Yan Zhaozhong was beside his uncle, obviously unable to get away for a while, Hu Yan couldn't help swallowing.

"You are the county magistrate? I... I am from King Su's side, you..."

Before Hu Yan finished speaking, Du Honglin's expression changed.His heart skipped a beat.

The official's mind was spinning quickly. He thought that he was also one of the participants in this transaction, and he was inextricably linked with the rebels. Besides, Mr. Li was still in his hands, so if the other party was King Su's people, once their scandals are exposed, how can they continue to be the county magistrate in the future?

Thinking of this section, Du Honglin interrupted Hu Yan before he finished speaking.

"Little brother, our top priority right now is to escape from here. In this way, as long as you are willing to help me, I will definitely reward you with a generous gift in the future. Now that there is no one outside, let's go out quickly!"

Before Hu Yan could say what he wanted to say, Du Honglin grabbed his wrist and led him out of the room.It's good if these two people don't come out, once they come out, the two who only know how to hold a pen, you look at me and I look at you, as soon as they saw the crowd, they ran towards the empty corner behind the courtyard.

The two fled furtively to the edge of a fence away from everyone. Seeing that the wall was tall and the people were short, Du Honglin looked at Hu Yan, then pointed to the wall, "Little brother, you squat down, I will step on it." Put your back against the wall and see where there are few people, you can climb out."

"Wait, County Magistrate Du, listen to me first." Hu Yan was dragged by him and ran all the way, still breathing, "If you change your mind now, maybe it's not too late."

"Hey, little brother, now is the time of crisis, if you have anything to say, let's go out and say it."

Du Honglin didn't take up the fight.He didn't believe that King Su would forgive him for what he had done, so he didn't excuse himself at all, but kept pressing Hu Yan's shoulders, trying to make him squat down.But why is Hu Yan willing to let the opportunity he finally ran into just slip away like this?The two pulled each other several times, but they couldn't pull each other.It was Du Honglin who was in a hurry. He tugged on Hu Yan's collar, and turned to a threatening tone.

"Little brother, hurry up! If someone finds out here, not only me, but you will also be locked up!"

When Du Honglin said this, he softened his voice again, "Brother, let's talk about what you want to say later. I'll go up and see the situation outside first."

Hu Yan was taken aback by what he said. He couldn't hold back Du Honglin after all, so he could only kneel down on the ground and let Du Honglin step on his back against the wall.Who knew that Du Honglin would not come down once he climbed up, Hu Yan yelled a few words from below, but he didn't dare to raise his voice too high to provoke those people in the courtyard.

"Magistrate Du, as long as you are willing to help rescue His Royal Highness King Su, everything else is easy to discuss. You have also seen that the Gao family is menacing. Even if you don't cooperate with us, you may not be able to survive alone. "

According to his own simple understanding of this matter, Hu Yan considered his own words, and at the same time, he had to spare some time to help Du Honglin on the wall. The members of Li Gaoyan's family were also alarmed.

Hu Yan probably didn't see it at a glance, but only heard a "boom" on the ground outside, and the county magistrate Du who was lying on the wall just now disappeared, and then Du Honglin's wailing came from outside the wall, and he almost died Scared Hu Yan's little heart out of his chest.

"Hey! It hurts me to death, hey... you guys! I am Du Honglin, the magistrate of this county! It was you, Mr. Gao, who asked me to come out! Don't move, just stand up for me!"

There was a moment of silence outside, but soon someone responded.

"If Mr. Gao let it out, who would climb over the wall? Hurry up and grab it back!"

"Hey! He ran away!"

"Come on!"

Hu Yan stood under the wall, and now he hoped to hear the sound of Du Honglin being arrested, but after a long time, he heard the guards coming back from outside, but he didn't hear Du Honglin's voice.

Hu Yan's heart sank.

Could it be that I messed up this matter just like that...

Logically, with Du Honglin's skill, he couldn't escape easily.As soon as he saw the guards running towards him, he started to run towards the main road. He didn't run very far, and he was already too tired to breathe, but the guards behind him were chasing him closely.How could it be that at this time a person suddenly sprang out from the forest beside the road and pulled him into the forest.

Du Honglin howled, only to hear the man growl, "Run this way!"

The man's voice was weird, and Du Honglin was startled when he heard it, but seeing the guards chasing him closer and closer, he couldn't care less about getting suspicious, so he had to follow this man in the woods and run wildly along the animal path in the wild path. After a while, the pursuers behind him gradually lost their voices, and Du Honglin's face was also flushed purple, as if he was going to die in the next second, and he collapsed on the spot panting for a long time.

And the person who jumped out from the side of the road to save him was Lao Wen.

Li Zhaoshuo and Lao Wen left the county office in a hurry not long after Hu Jiuzhang left.

There was only one person in the county government who was willing to come out with Li Zhaosuo. Although the rest of the people did not embarrass the troubled young man, but if they were to follow suit, Li Zhaosuo had neither money nor power. After all, it is really difficult to convince everyone.

Li Zhaoshuo and Lao Wen walked out of the county government gate with empty hands.Li Zhaoshuo's expression was gloomy, while Lao Wen, who was wearing a shabby handyman's coat, seemed to be thinking about something, his dark eyes were shining brightly.

"Old Wen, I'm afraid it's useless for you to follow me. It's just the two of us and we can't do anything. I don't want to involve you too much, so why don't you go back first? It's good that you can help me to this point. I, Li Zhaoshuo I am not an ungrateful person, if I have the life to return to Chang'an in the future, I will definitely repay you."

Li Zhaoshuo said firmly, apparently ready to say goodbye to Lao Wen.But Lao Wen didn't intend to leave. He turned his head to look at Li Zhaoshuo, but seemed dissatisfied with his words.

"Mr. Li, how do you plan to rescue His Royal Highness King Su?"

"This... let's think of a way, maybe Mr. Hu has a way..."

"Perhaps. But if they can't do anything about it, wouldn't the deal of the rebels be done?"

"This..." Li Zhaoshuo was upset by his question.

"Let me see... Mr. Li, since we already know the location of their transaction, let's rush over to check it out and make plans. It's better than just being stuck here."

"That's a good word."

Li Zhaoshuo nodded repeatedly, he was indeed going there.

Li Zhaoshuo looked at Lao Wen from time to time. To be honest, this man was ugly and had a large scar on his throat. He would believe that this man was a vicious criminal.But the old news in front of him is just an ordinary handyman in the county government.

When Li Zhaoshuo was first imprisoned, it was Lao Wen who came over on his own initiative, brought him water and food, and helped him find news from the outside.

Thinking about it now, from the beginning to the end, Li Zhaoshuo begged Lao Wen to do a single thing.Everything Lao Wen did was voluntary, so that if Li Zhaoshuo didn't think about it, he would almost forget that Lao Wen was just a handyman in the county government who always liked to help him.

"Old Wen, are you really just a handyman in the county government?"

Li Zhaoshuo has always doubted Lao Wen's identity.Just looking at the horrific scar on his neck, one can tell that this person must have had a difficult past, but until now, he had no chance to ask.

"It's not a handyman, what else can it be..."

Old Wen sighed lightly.

"Mr. Li, while you can do something now, do it quickly, and don't regret it until you can't do anything."

"I can do a lot of things that I regret."

Li Zhaoshuo couldn't stop smiling wryly.

"Old Wen, we've known each other for a while, why aren't you willing to tell me something about yourself? I've been here, but I don't even know your name."

On the dirt road leading to Chengshan Temple, the two chatted one after another.

Neither of these two people knew what kind of scene was waiting for them at the end of the road, but they both made up their minds to go.Li Zhaoshuo did it for his father and younger brother, but as for what Lao Wen did for it, I am afraid that only he himself knows.

"I don't have any past worth hearing about, Mr. Li, really."

His tone was sincere, "My name is Wen Baichuan, what I really want to say... Mr. Li, I am not afraid of your jokes. I have a relative, and I am afraid you know it. Lu Cheng'an of Jian'an is my cousin, but the difference between me and him In the meantime, there are still some entanglements in the past, which have not been clarified..."

Lao Wen's voice was full of laments, but Li Zhaoshuo's eyes widened.

I'm afraid he heard it right, the old news in front of him is actually Lu Cheng'an's cousin!

Li Zhaoshuo couldn't help taking a deep breath, but after thinking about it carefully, there was indeed a connection between them. The summons that Li Zhaoshuo received before were all obtained by Lao Wen from Jian'an County.At first, he only thought that Lao Wen begged the people over there to get these things.Looking at it now, it's not that Lao Wen begged someone, but that he himself has a relationship with Lu Cheng'an!

Thinking of this, Li Zhaoshuo couldn't help being overwhelmed by a sudden sense of excitement.

"Old Wen, old Wen, you didn't tell me about such an important matter earlier! You have to tell me well, what secrets do you have, I don't know!"
