In the morning of that day, everything went very smoothly according to the pre-arranged arrangements, and it could be said that there were no flaws. After it was over, Yuantai finally breathed a sigh of relief and led his men back home.

When Yuan Tai returned to his house, he anxiously waited for news about his wife. Although he knew that the other party would not break the promise, because Mrs. Yuan was useless to them. Since their purpose had been achieved, they should not embarrass his wife.

It was important to send him back smoothly. But before his wife came back, he was still a little anxious.

Finally, a guard came in and reported that a carriage, similar to the carriage Madam was riding in, had arrived outside the house. After hearing this, Mrs. Yuan was overjoyed and immediately stood up, preparing to go out to greet her.

But the guard added: "Sir, what's strange is that this carriage is parked not far from the gate, but no one got out. I don't know if I should get on the carriage to check it out, so I came here to report it to you."

After hearing this, Yuantai felt a little confused, why didn't she get out of the car and go back to the house even though the wife had already returned to the door? He quickened his pace and walked towards the gate of Yuan Mansion.

When I came to the gate of Yuan Mansion, I saw a large carriage parked on the roadside about ten feet outside the door. It was the same one that Madam took when she left. It was just that the driver was changed. It turned out to be one from the Mansion.

The young horseman is now an old man wearing a green cloth shirt.

Yuantai asked the guards following him to stay in front of the gate, and walked towards the carriage alone. When he was approaching, he called out "Madam", but there was no answer in the carriage.

At this time, the old man who was driving the bus got down from the driver's seat, walked towards Yuan Tai and said, "Is this Master Yuan? Madam is not in the car."

"Why is this? Didn't you promise to send your wife back when the matter is completed?" Yuantai asked in a low voice. He felt that the coachman in front of him seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.

"Don't worry, Mr. Yuan, my wife is fine. It's just that we don't have the customs documents to enter the city, so we can't send her directly back to the house. We can only temporarily place her in a safe place outside the city. I'd like to trouble you to pick her up in person."

"Why is this? Are you being too dishonest by doing this?" Yuantai said angrily.

"This is not a lack of credibility. Our boss said that it was our own efforts that brought back our own people. It is only fair to ask you to pick up your wife yourself. Please don't be harsh." The old coachman was reasonable.

Said the ground.

"Then, where is he?" Yuantai could only ask helplessly.

"Master Yuan, please get in the car. It's not far ahead. It's time for half a stick of incense." The carriage driver raised his hand and pointed to the east.

Thinking that my wife had been kidnapped by gangsters for three days, she must have been shocked as she had never suffered anything. Thinking of this, Yuantai, who loved his wife dearly, couldn't wait to take his wife back to his house immediately. He raised his feet

He got on the carriage and said, "Then please set off quickly."

Seeing Yuantai get into the carriage, the old man drove the carriage and galloped towards the east.

After a while, the carriage came out of the East City Gate, and after running for a while, the carriage driver finally heard a shout of "Hey!" and the carriage stopped.

Yuantai lifted the curtains and looked outside. The carriage stopped in front of an ancient temple outside Dongcheng. This temple is called Mingjue Temple. It was flooded the year before last and was severely burned. It is currently being rebuilt, although it has been almost repaired.

, but it has not officially received pilgrims, and the monks in the temple are temporarily staying elsewhere. Therefore, the temple usually has many workers during the day, but there are no people at night, and there is not even a monk on duty.

It was very quiet in the temple.

At this time, the coachman got out of the car and walked towards the temple. Yuantai also got out of the car in a hurry and followed the coachman closely.

The carriage driver led the way, passing through several temples and arriving at the Main Hall at the back of the courtyard. The carriage driver stepped forward and pushed open the heavy palace door.

Yuan Taichao looked inside the hall and saw that there were only one or two lights inside. The light was dim, sometimes bright and sometimes dark, but he still vaguely saw two people sitting in front of the Buddha statue.

Yuantai stepped into the threshold and took a few steps forward. At this time, he saw clearly that there were two women in front of the Buddha statue. They were tied to two seats with their backhands, and their heads were covered with hoods. But

From the figure, he recognized one of the women at a glance as his wife Yang.

Yuantai immediately shouted: "Madam, madam." He rushed towards the woman to rescue the bound woman.

Just when he was about to arrive in front of his wife, Yuantai suddenly felt the wind roaring behind him, and a gust of dark wind was coming. Not good! He lowered his head suddenly, and the tip of a long whip brushed across his head, and his official hat was

Knocked to the ground.

It turned out that the coachman attacked him from behind with a long whip. This coachman's long whip was not an ordinary whip, but had three whip ropes connected to a handle, and the whip ropes were woven from special vines, which was unusual.

It is strong and tough, with vines and dense thorns, making it very dangerous.

Yuantai was caught off guard and lowered his head to avoid the whip, but his waist and one leg were entangled by two other whip ropes. The coachman shouted loudly and suddenly used the whip to push back.

He threw Yuantai high into the air. At the same time, several black-clothed assassins holding sharp blades suddenly sprang out from both sides of the hall and attacked Yuantai.

At this time, Yuantai realized that someone was setting up an ambush and wanted to assassinate him here. He immediately stabilized his mind, used the force to do a reverse roll in the air, freed himself from the shackles of the long whip, and at the same time pulled it out from his waist.

With a swipe of his sword, he deflected several swords that were stabbing him, and then fell steadily to the ground.

Yuantai's move turned the tables and shocked the people who besieged him. Everyone was shocked. Knowing that they were going to have a hard time today, they calmed down and everyone shouted loudly. At the same time, they raised their swords and attacked Yuantai.

Recruit an attack.

Yuantai raised his sword to greet them and fought with the others. After several rounds, Yuantai felt that his own skills were more than enough to deal with these people. However, Yuantai kept harassing his coachman with long whips on the outside, which made him a little frightened.

, this coachman's whipping skills were superb, and his whips were so cunning and vicious that he was unable to guard against them.

Suddenly, Yuantai felt a little dizzy, and his hands and feet were a little floating. He found that the clothes on his waist and legs had been ripped open by the long whip, and the skin in both places had been scratched by the whip.

Yuantai realized that poison must have been fed to this whip sting, and the poison had gradually begun to take effect. Fortunately, the wound was not deep, and the potency was not too strong. He must now knock down all the assassins in front of him before the poison took effect, otherwise he would
Chapter completed!
