At the base of an inconspicuous wall in the backyard of the palace, a young man in green clothes and a small hat gently patted the wall.

Snap!

There were two responses from outside the wall.

Squatting down against the wall, the boy pushed a thin bamboo tube through a small hole.

After a while, the bamboo pipe was stuffed in again.

The boy pulled out a note from inside and saw it said: If anything changes, we will respond at any time.

The boy ate the note into his mouth, carefully hid the bamboo tube in the grass next to him, patted the wall again, looked around a few times, and when he saw no one around, he jumped up and down with joy again.

The ground leaves.

Outside the wall, Xie Laosan finally felt a little more at ease.

At this time, the brothers who had been notified in Xiangyang City had already rushed over one after another. They all came together in groups of three or two, either pretending to be beggars, or carrying loaders, or pushing carts..., and gradually spread out

Around the palace.

The man who had been following Xie Laosan earlier was hiding under a tree not far away. He also sat down, pretending to rest, with his eyes half closed.

It has to be said that this is a good tracker. People who can be invisible in the crowd at any time are always difficult to detect. Like the posture he showed at this time, everything seemed to be normal.

He didn't dare to leave just like that. Obviously, he saw the strange movement around him. This place was in the backyard of the palace. It had never been a prosperous place for merchants. So many people suddenly appeared, and even a fool could see it.

Something went wrong.

"Brother, move over and make room!"

Just as he was concentrating with his eyes closed, two beggars came and sat down next to him, one on the left and one on the right.

Grandma, are you treating yourself as a beggar?

He opened his eyes and pretended to look at the two of them calmly, but the sour smell hit his nose.

"Forget it, give it to you two, I have to be on my way!"

He knew something was wrong and got up to leave.

Suddenly, a strong force came from both sides at the same time, pressing down on his shoulders. He had no choice but to sit down again.

"Don't move!"

The beggar on the left grabbed his pulse, his voice was low but threatening.

Well, it was discovered!

He finally came to his senses at this time. Unexpectedly, he actually lost his hand.

He didn't dare to move. Another beggar's knife was already pressed against his waist. If he resisted even a little bit, he would probably get blood splattered on the spot. He had no choice but to look into the distance helplessly and shook his head.

After a while, Xie Laosan lazily stood up from the wall, stretched out, patted his buttocks, and walked away.

Nothing happened, but he became a prisoner.

Not long after, his eyes were blindfolded, and he first got into a carriage, and after twists and turns, he seemed to have entered an alley. Then, he got out of the carriage, heard a "squeaking" sound, and was pushed into a small courtyard.

inside.

His eyes were freed, and the light suddenly brightened, which made him unable to adapt for a while.

After rubbing his eyes for a long time, what he saw in front of him shocked him.

Xie Laosan was holding a sharp knife and gesticulating towards him with a smile. Next to him, seven or eight men, sitting, standing, squatting or leaning, all stared at him coldly.

"Boy, tell me, why are you following me?"

Xie Laosan took two steps closer and put a knife against his chest.

He was not frightened. He snorted coldly and acted like he was not afraid of life or death.

"Did not say?"

Xie Laosan put away the knife and retreated to a stone pier to sit down.

"My Ah Wu hasn't drank human blood for a long time. Seeing as you are young and strong, the taste should be relatively fresh!"

"Hey hey hey!"

When I heard about Ah Wu, two big men came over with mysterious smiles.

That smile really made him feel a little creepy.

"Who is Ah Wu?"

He couldn't help but ask, wondering if he was alone.

"Ah Wu, you'll know just by looking at it!"

As he said that, two men held him up one on the left and the other on the right and walked towards a small room.
