Chapter 3099 Ning Ji’s Disaster, Chaos and Childbirth
Gu Dewang was smart and had already seen that Rui Shuang was afraid of retreating after winning, so he immediately ordered: "Set the arrows again, gather the troops and chase them out!"
If you give chase, you might be able to find a chance to rescue Grandpa Qin, but you can't let Rui Shuang escape like this.
"Yes." Ouyang Nan fired two more arrows.
However, when the arrow took off, Gu Dewang and others also discovered the "Kongming Lantern" in the sky!
The sky lanterns rose slowly, carrying dazzling blue smoke, floating over the capital, making them too eye-catching to be ignored.
Rui Shuang in front suddenly stopped, looked back at Gu Dewang, and said cruel words: "When the Kongming lantern lights up, the medicine soldiers destroy the city!"
Gu Dewang was shocked: "What do you mean? Isn't your family trying to seize the throne? After destroying the capital, you still want to be a ghost emperor?!"
Rui Shuang: "Father only protects his subjects. Before he ascended the throne, all the people in the city were hostages... Destroying the city with chemical soldiers and killing people indiscriminately can drag down and wear down your troops. When daybreak, Those who survive will completely lose their fighting spirit due to fear and fatigue, and surrender to their father."
Gu Dewang was shocked by the cruelty of the father and daughter: "You unscrupulous beasts, if you do this, even if you succeed, you will not be able to secure the throne. People with lofty ideals in the world will unite against you!"
Ha, Rui Shuang smiled: "What does it have to do with me?"
She doesn't care about the throne, she always wants destruction.
Zong Zhengya once again wooed Gu Dewang: "Brother Wang, bring the officials of the Xiao family, Ouyang family, and Hubu to join the Daning Dynasty as soon as possible. If it is later, you will have no chance."
Gu Dewang: "Ah, get lost!"
"You don't know what is good or bad!" Zong Zhengya was furious. Seeing that Rui Shuang had left, he hurriedly chased him out.
Rui Shuang dragged the inner prisoner who was carrying Mr. Qin, used medicine soldiers to clear the way, and rushed out of the Duke Cheng's Mansion in the shortest possible time.
He grabbed Mr. Qin again, threw him into the carriage, dragged Zong Zhengya into the carriage, and ordered: "Go back to the imperial city!"
With two snaps, the eunuch beat the horse and drove the carriage out of the street where Duke Cheng's mansion was located.
Rui Shuang only held Mr. Qin as a hostage and used her last bargaining chip to escape. So she was very angry and stopped holding on. She cut her wrist and let her blood spill all over the place.
There are medicine soldiers in the room where the Kongming Lantern is released. They have a keen sense of smell. After smelling the medicinal blood, they go crazy and bite everyone they see.
Boom boom boom!
The walls of countless homes were knocked down, and medical soldiers rushed into the houses, biting everyone they saw.
Hiss, hiss, many people turned into corpses before they even reacted.
"Ah, ghost, the ghost is crawling up to eat people, parents, run away!"
But how could they outrun the medical soldiers? Bang bang bang, after running a few steps, they were pushed to the ground by the medical soldiers, hissed a few times, and bitten to death.
"Cellar, take your wife and children and hide in the cellar!" But the cellar is not a secret room and cannot withstand the impact of the medical soldiers. Some people hiding in the cellar were still killed by the medical soldiers.
The Gu family, Ouyang family, Zhang family, Qi Kangming, Dou family, Meng Hong and other families were even more harmed by Ning Ji's henchmen led by medicine soldiers.
Boom!
The door of Gu Jin'an's house was knocked open by medicine soldiers, who rushed into the house roaring.
But the house was empty, not even a living person was left.
Zhao Mao's face darkened and he immediately ordered: "He must have hid in the secret passage after seeing the arrows from the Duke of Qin's mansion. Search, find the mark left by the emperor's slave, enter the secret passage to arrest him!"
In order to show the importance he attached to his ministers and generals, Wei Xiao regarded the slaves and craftsmen belonging to the royal family as items and rewarded them to the families of his close ministers and generals. The Gu family and the Qin family both had imperial slaves. But there are also people from the master among those imperial slaves, so even if the Gu family hides in the secret passage, they can still find it.
"Yes!" The subordinates immediately searched Gu's house, but could not find the mark. They only found the tied up imperial slaves.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!" When the emperor's slaves saw them, they hurriedly called for help.
Zhao Mao's subordinates hurriedly untied them and asked urgently: "What's going on? Didn't you hide in a secret passage with the Gu family?"
The entire Gu Mansion was deserted, which showed that Ouyang Ming was very kind-hearted and did not abandon his servants. So how could the imperial slaves be tied up?
As soon as they were freed, the imperial slaves cursed Ouyang Ming: "That poisonous woman is so scheming that she never believed in us. As soon as something happened, she sent someone to stop us and prevent us from entering the secret passage in the backyard. We had to follow them closely, but naturally she refused. They brought His Majesty out to suppress us, but the Gu family immediately tied us up for committing the crime!"
Zhao Mao came over in a hurry, and when he heard this, he was so angry that he almost slashed them to death: "A bunch of trash, they have been in Gu's house for so long, but they haven't gained any trust at all. Didn't you say that you have met Ouyang's family several times before?" , did you still get her reward?"
He was rewarded, but Ouyang Ming was deliberately pretending.
Ever since Wei Xiao trusted Ning Ji and kept him instead of killing him, Gu Jinan and Gu Jinli didn't dare to trust his people too much. They had to keep this idea, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous if they let these imperial slaves enter the secret passage.
"General, spare your life. The slaves are familiar with the Gu Mansion. As long as you give the slaves a little time, they will be able to help the general find the entrance to the secret passage!" The imperial slaves were afraid of being killed, so they hurriedly knelt down and begged for mercy.
At this point, Zhao Mao could only leave them behind, but he pointed at the medicine soldiers roaring behind him and said: "We must find the entrance to the secret passage within an hour, or we will make rations for the medicine soldiers!"
The imperial slaves glanced at the medicine soldiers and saw that they were still holding the stumps in their mouths. They were so frightened that they swore: "The slaves will definitely find the entrance!"
No matter what, they were not close confidants of the master and had no idea where the entrance was. They were fooling Zhao Mao and the others while looking for opportunities to escape.
Zhao Mao did not defend here and ran to the Marquis' Mansion of the State of Lu, which was separated by a wall. But Brother Cheng was a bachelor. Not only was there no one in his mansion, but it was also full of traps. Zhao Mao and the others were killed by surprise and suffered losses. A group of soldiers and horses.
"Lu Jincheng!" Zhao Mao was furious, but he couldn't waste time now. He could only suppress his anger and ran to the nearby Gu Dexing's and Qi Kangming's houses.
But there is no one in their mansion.
This time, Zhao Mao was not angry, but was scared and sweating on his back... He came with a mission. If he didn't catch even a hostage, what awaited him would be a fate worse than death.
"Search, dig three feet into the ground to find the entrance to the secret passage!" Zhao Mao gave a death order and asked the medicine man to control the medicine soldiers to search together.
The medicine soldier's power was too great, and he jumped again, bang bang, making the whole ground tremble, and also knocked down many walls and houses.
Boom boom boom~
In the secret passage, Ouyang Ming and the others could feel the vibration above.
"Keep your voice down and continue walking deeper. Don't stay in the shallow secret passages for too long, or you will be discovered." Ouyang Ming suppressed his fear and ordered, and then said: "Send someone to pick up my cousins and Linglong at the entrances of several secret passages. , we must pick them up safely... keep an eye on those who are accompanying them, and stop those who shouldn't be let in. We can't be soft-hearted at this time, otherwise everyone will die."
"Yes." The Ouyang family hurried to pick him up.
But tonight's sudden change was too terrifying. Ouyang Ming had been worried before he saw anyone. Fortunately, three quarters of an hour later, Xu Zhong, his mother and son, and Mrs. Zheng were picked up.
Ouyang Ming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw them.
Mrs. Zheng grew up pampered and had never experienced a battle like tonight alone. She was so frightened that she cried: "Cousin, I finally see you... It seems that something terrible has entered the house, and it keeps shouting, those things Will they find us?"
Ouyang Ming: "No, no, it's very safe here. There's a solid secret room on the lower floor with food stored in it. We'll be fine."
