Compared with the cumbersome trip of the Chen family's ten vehicles, Xie Zhan and Chen Baozhu only arranged for two carriages to travel, which can be said to be light and simple.

It can be said that not long after Chen Jiaye and his party arrived at the foot of Puxian Temple, Xie Zhan, Chen Baozhu and others also arrived.

"Baozhu, the rain is too heavy. Let's rest at the foot of the mountain first and wait until the rain subsides a little before going up." Xie Zhan suggested.

Chen Baozhu looked at the rain and knew that it was really difficult to go up the mountain at this time, so he nodded.

Chen Yu and Chen Jin were on guard duty and were surprised to see Xie Zhan and Chen Baozhu here.

"Why are you here?" Chen Jin looked at Xie Zhan suspiciously.

Before Xie Zhan could say anything, Chen Baozhu started to choke, "What's that look in your eyes? Can't we come here? I haven't asked you yet, what are you and your eldest brother doing here?"

Chen Jin choked at Chen Baozhu's words and his face turned red.

"Baozhu!" Xie Zhan called her unequally. After Chen Baozhu shut up, he turned to the Chen brothers, "Baozhu wanted to come to Puxian Temple to burn incense and fulfill her vows, so I accompanied her. I didn't expect to meet my elder brother and younger brother here.

."

Chen Yu signaled Chen Jin not to talk nonsense, and said in a deep voice, "We have important matters here. We will talk to you in detail when we get back."

Xie Zhan nodded.

Chen Baozhu was a little dissatisfied.

Xie Zhan looked at it, pointed to the outermost room and said, "Brother, Baozhu and I will go to the outermost room and let her change her clothes and shoes. When the rain stops, we will go up the mountain. If you

If you need anything here, you can tell me."

Chen Yu nodded, "Okay, you go and change out of your wet clothes first."

"Brother, do you want to tell our father the news that Xie Zhan and Baozhu are also here?" Chen Jin asked.

Chen Yu thought for a while and shook his head, "It's better to say goodbye." The first task now is to capture Mr.

They will just come in the rain.

"But send someone to keep an eye on them."

…

Chen Hai and Chen Cheng are members of the Chen clan, and they are guarding an exit right now.

At this moment, two figures came towards them. Because of the heavy rain and the fact that they were wearing raincoats, they couldn't see clearly.

"Who?" Chen Hai and Chen Cheng shouted.

"One of our own!"

As they got closer, Chen Hai and Chen Cheng realized that two companions, Yang Jie and Hu Jun, were walking over carrying a basket covered with oilcloth.

At that moment, the two of them relaxed their vigilance and said, "It's you."

Yang Jie replied, "Of course it's us, otherwise who do you think would come up with such a heavy rain?"

Hu Jun also said, "I didn't expect you guys to be quite responsible."

"Hey, there's nothing we can do, it's the same for everyone. By the way, what delicious food did you bring?"

"The things in the basket belong to both of us, so don't worry about it. The eldest son asked us to take over for you two. You go change into dry clothes first, and eat and greet each other, okay? We can just guard here."

"Okay, then I'll leave this place to you."

Chen Hai and Chen Cheng chatted while walking back.

Chen Hai: "Chen Cheng, Yang Jie, Hu Jun and the others are coming together?"

Chen Cheng: "Too many people came out today, so I can't remember them all. But I should be there, right? Otherwise, where did they come from?"

Bang! The two people who were talking did not pay attention to what was behind them. They were attacked from behind, and they fell immediately. Then, they were dragged to a secret place nearby and hid.

…

Not long after Xie Zhan and Chen Baozhu entered the house, another carriage drove into the main street.

Both of them heard the noise in the house, and Chen Baozhu wondered why anyone was still coming. She thought that on this rainy day, there were very few people who were as persistent as her in offering incense.

"I'll go out and take a look."

After Xie Zhan went out, he didn't come in for a while.

Inside, Chen Baozhu changed out of her clothes and shoes that were wet by the rain, and wiped the wet ends of her hair. But she noticed that her husband was outside, and seemed to be talking to someone, but due to the interference of the rain, she could not hear

Not very realistic.

Outside the house, the groom driving Lu Xihua's carriage had been following the eldest lady Lu Fei's carriage at a short distance. When he saw the eldest lady's carriage stopping, he also stopped.

Lu Xihua squinted his eyes and looked at a man and a woman chatting happily under the eaves through a curtain of rain. He recognized the man's identity as Xie Zhan, the son-in-law of the Chen family.

Lu Xihua's eyesight was very good, and he could see Lu Fei's charming smile from a long distance away.

Lu Xihua secretly said, this bitch actually fell in love with a married man? Going out for a private meeting on a rainy day?

But the two people in Lu Xihua's imagination who were flirting looked like this:

"Is Lu Xihua still following you?" Lu Fei asked nervously.

Xie Zhan: "No, he didn't follow us, but he should be able to see us."

"Will he do it?"

"I will." Xie Zhan continued, "Come on, it's raining heavily, I'll take you to the room next to you."

From Lu Xihua's perspective, he saw Xie Zhan and Lu Fei holding an umbrella together, gradually moving to the left, and finally disappearing from his sight. They had obviously entered the house.

The groom asked, "Master, are we still following?"

Lu Xihua's eyes shone brightly, "Follow us and catch this pair of bastards!" Catch the adulterer! We must catch the adulterer! He wants to make her lose face in front of her father. How can she have the nerve to find fault with him in the future?

The confidant boy dissuaded him, "Wait a minute, eldest son, as the saying goes, if you catch a thief, you will get the stolen goods, and if you catch an adulterer, you will get both. Besides, it is still early, so nothing will happen to them. If we rush in now, we will only alert the snake, so why not start here?

Send someone to guard it, and then you can go home and invite the master here."

"In this way, no matter whether the eldest lady is not having sex with Xie Zhan or not, as long as her affair with a married man is exposed, the master will be furious."

Lu Xihua thought for a while and felt that what his confidant said made sense. But how to ensure that they would not leave while he went back to invite people?

His trouble was quickly solved by his confidant.

"My lord, only slaves know that this street at the foot of Puxian Temple has gates on the street and at the end of the street. Can't we just lock the gate and catch the rapist?"

Lu Xihua calculated and found that this place is not very far from the Lu Mansion. A round trip of more than half an hour, or at most an hour, is enough. And during this time they may not necessarily find that the outside is locked.

"That's it!"

So Lu Xihua took out the iron lock that locked the carriage.

Locking the main street gate went smoothly.

When he locked the gate at the end of Main Street, he was discovered after he completely locked it.

The other party shouted, "What are you doing?!"

"Lu Xihua, is it you?!"

middle section of main street

Brothers Chen Jiaye and Chen Jiayu packed up clean clothes and shoes, dried their hair, drank a cup of hot tea, and came to the door next door.

"Mr. Xue, I'm Chen Jiaye. I haven't seen you for many years, so please come out and say something."

Chen Jiaye and others did not notice that it was in the middle of the main street, their blind spot. As loud shouts were heard at the end of the street, a puff of smoke slowly rose, and there was also a red cloth fluttering in the wind.

The movement at the end of the street caught the attention of Chen Jiaye and others, "What happened?"

Rumble--Rumble--

There was a roar.

Everyone followed the sound and turned pale with shock.

"No, it's a flash flood! Run!"

The speaker's voice was trembling and his expression was frightened.

Xie Zhan reacted the fastest. He immediately dragged Chen Baozhu towards the mountain behind the house, and at the same time shouted to Lu Fei, "Run!"

Lu Fei followed him with his head down.

Xie Zhan left the exit guarded by Yang Jie and Hu Jun, which was the closest to them and the widest exit besides the two main streets. After his people came out, they seemed to have touched something inadvertently, and a piece of wood on the side

It rolled down and completely blocked the exit.

On the mountain not far away, a group of people retreated to a safe place where the flash flood could not reach them.

Xie Wei leaned against a pine tree and looked with interest at the ground at the foot of the mountain that had been washed away by flash floods. This was the result of several days of labor with his people.

The soldier asked Xie Wei, "Major General, are we going down to rescue people?" The clan leader was still down there, and he didn't know if he could escape this disaster safely.

Xie Wei stretched his body and said, "I won't go."

He did what Xie Zhan asked him to do, but he didn't let himself save him again.
