"Run quickly——!"
Liu Xiucai's sharp howl caused many prisoners who were at a loss to flee at this moment like frightened birds. There were figures running around everywhere, shouting and crying. The collapse of the county jail and the prisoner's escape shocked the entire small town of Ji County, adding a bit of noise to this cold winter night.
Qi Heizi in the crowd was a little confused, not knowing what to do. He felt his arms tighten and he was rising off the ground, and the heavy shackles were gone in an instant. He could see nothing with his eyes, only the sound of the wind whistling in his ears.
After a moment, the sound of the wind disappeared, and Qi Heizi's feet landed on the ground. Who was dragging him away just now? Where does this go? When he was about to turn back to look for his kind companion, he saw clearly what was in front of him in the night. This honest man trembled with fright and lost his voice: "Why are you home? Xiaolan..."
A woman holding an oil lamp was Qi Heizi's mother-in-law. She widened her eyes and exclaimed: "It's Heizi! Someone seemed to say you were coming back just now. I thought it was in a dream. Who would have imagined... This Taoist Priest, Could it be..."
Hearing the sound, Qi Heizi noticed something strange behind him, and quickly turned around to look, only to see a young Taoist nodded to him and said, "Come into the room and talk..."
The three of them entered the house, and Qi Heizi and his wife asked about the origin of the person. The other person said, "I am Lin Yi, and I came here to find Ye Laoquan."
Under the oil lamp, Lin Yi put his hands behind his back with a faint smile. Qi Heizi was still a little confused, but his mother-in-law Xiaolan made some guesses and hurriedly thanked him with a gift: "My man can come back safely, thanks to the great kindness of the Taoist priest!"
"You saved me? There is still a long way from the prison to the city wall. How come I didn't notice it? I ran home today, and the government will come to arrest me tomorrow. Wouldn't it hurt my mother-in-law?" Qi Heizi looked confused and self-conscious. He looked Lin Yi up and down.
What a fool! Lin Yi shook his head with a smile and said: "As far as I know, the ruins next to your house are the former residence of Ye Laoquan's family. Tell me what you know. There is no need to worry about other things..."
Qi Heizi still turned around with suspicion. Seeing Xiaolan wiping her tears and nodding her head again and again, indicating that what the other party said was true, he said: "It's better if he's not a bad person! Come with me..."
This seemingly honest and cautious person could actually throw himself into death row without knowing it. Instead, he complained and doubted his savior...! Lin Yixin smiled bitterly as he followed Qi Heizi to the next room.
Qi Heizi opened an old box full of dust, took out a spiritual tablet wrapped in rags, and said, "If you ask others about this, no one really knows..."
It turns out that Qi Heizi's ancestor was a beggar who fled the country. When he arrived here, he was taken in by Ye Laoquan and given a home. When Ye Laoquan died, Qi Heizi's ancestors were grateful for his virtues, offered incense and paid homage to him every year, and told future generations not to forget the kindness of the Ye family. But the life of the Qi family was already in embarrassment, and now it was getting worse with each generation. In Qi Heizi's generation, he was the only one left, and he finally found a wife and was in jail. However, this honest man did not forget his father's instructions before his death, and he still remembered the location of Ye Laoquan's gravesite...
…
"I haven't even said a few words to my mother-in-law before you pulled her out. It won't be too late to come back at dawn..." Qi Heizi's complaint came from the hazy night.
A slope is crowded with graves of various sizes. In the night wind, there was a faint cry of night owls, adding a bit of chill to the place. Qi Heizi was a little timid and slowed down his steps. Lin Yi was not in a hurry and just let him grind along.
Qi Heizi stopped when he found a low grave. He pointed with his finger, as if he couldn't bear the cold, his voice was trembling, and he said: "This is the cemetery of the ancestors of the Ye family. I remember it clearly..."
Among the many graves that are close together, the graves in this open space feel doubly lonely. The tombstone has long been damaged and disappeared. Because no one added earth every year, and the wind and rain, the tomb looks low and shabby.
After looking around and remembering the location of the Ye family cemetery, Lin Yi stopped talking to Qi Heizi and grabbed him and disappeared where he was.
"……ah!"
As the exclamations were about to end, Qi Heizi found himself back in the small courtyard at home. Only then did he feel that the people around him were not simple. Out of curiosity, he wanted to ask a few questions about this. Unexpectedly, the other party's face darkened and he said: "Escape is a serious matter and the government will definitely pursue it. Pack a few close-fitting clothes and follow me." !”
Lin Yi gave an order and stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, letting the couple pack their things. But after half the stick of incense was gone, he turned around with a surprised look on his face——
After Xiaolan understood the reason why her man came back, she didn't dare to neglect it. She packed a few bags of close-fitting clothes and walked around anxiously. Look at this one and you can't let go of that one. You just want to move the whole yard. The family is poor and worth thousands of dollars!
But Qi Heizi was squatting at the door, with a tigerish face and a look of reluctance. Seeing Lin Yi looking over, he suddenly stood up and shouted: "You are so rude! What did you do to me for escaping from prison in Ji County? Even if the crime of escaping from prison was serious and so many people escaped, how could you blame me?" Come up? It’s dark all around. You force me to come with you. How is this different from a strongman..."
Before he finished speaking, Qi Heizi squatted down again angrily and said: "I won't leave, this is my home..." He thought of something and said self-righteously: "If you force yourself, I will." Report to the official..."
Before Lin Yi could say anything, Xiaolan stamped her feet and said, "Damn Heizi, the Taoist priest saved my two lives, but you are so stupid..."
"Men speak, women shut up!" Qi Heizi assumed the attitude of a family member and glared at Xiaolan. The other party was anxious and angry. He couldn't help but wipe away his tears. He didn't forget to apologize to Lin Zheng and said, "Don't blame me, Taoist priest, my black guy..."
Seeing this, Lin Yi did not get angry, but looked in the direction of the county seat and frowned. With a chill in his face, he ignored Qi Heizi and instantly disappeared from the spot.
"This is a ghost..." Qi Heizi exclaimed, sitting down on the ground, but he did not forget to scold the mother-in-law: "As a woman, you should not associate with strange men..."
…
In an elegant room in a small courtyard, the remaining banquets were removed and wine and food were placed again. With his face glowing red, Lieutenant Jia Xian raised his glass to the three sitting immortals and said: "Tonight someone robbed the prison, and the prison collapsed for no reason. Just when the prisoners were fleeing, thanks to the intervention of the two immortals, the danger was saved." Ah! If not, Mr. Jia will not be able to explain it in front of Shangguan. I will drink three glasses of wine to express my gratitude..."
The old man sat upright without moving, with a slightly unhappy look on his face, but he still nodded and said: "I accept your worship, but I must protect your wealth and future! But..." He held his long beard in his hand and pondered for a moment. The two middle-aged men beside him exchanged glances with each other and quickly put down their wine glasses, looking very respectful and obedient.
Seeing that the two men were so respectful, the old man's expression slowly changed, and he continued: "I am just helping Jia County Lieutenant to arrest the criminals. Why did I hurt so many lives? I, a Taoist, must not bear the slightest bit of tolerance..."
Something happened in the county jail, which could not be hidden from the old man's consciousness. Seeing that Jia County Lieutenant could not control the situation, he asked the two middle-aged men to help. They are just prisoners, how can they escape from the monks' methods. However, these two people like to kill indiscriminately, which may harm Tianhe!
The two middle-aged men did not dare to disobey, so they stood up and bowed their heads in agreement. Lieutenant Jia County said considerately: "Haha! It doesn't matter! Prisoners escaping from prison is a capital crime and should be punished! However, the prison was suddenly destroyed and when the power was at a loss, thanks to the immortal's help, no one escaped. Slipping through the net is a great achievement..."
The county government prison was completely destroyed, and dozens of prisoners fled for their lives. Jia County Lieutenant was helpless, but fortunately two immortals took action in time. The flying sword was as fast as a shooting star in the night, and it killed dozens of people in just the blink of an eye. The remaining prisoners were frightened by the power of the immortal, and they all lay on the ground waiting to be captured. But in the blink of an eye, a catastrophe was eliminated, and his reputation as Jia County Lieutenant was achieved! If this matter is reported to the superior, another compliment will inevitably come from it!
If you have an immortal at home, everything will be worry-free! Lieutenant Jia Xian was in high spirits during happy events and kept soliciting drinks. However, he saw the old immortal's expression suddenly changed and he slowly stood up with a look of astonishment. Before he could ask a question, someone behind him spoke——
"It's you indeed! How brave you are—!"
