Hearing the sudden change in the courtyard, Ming Zhiyuan still did not panic. He let the breath that was still running wash through the last acupoint joint at the same speed before withdrawing the breath into the inner elixir.
When I walked to the window, I saw through the crack in the window that the courtyard below was filled with sergeants in military uniforms. One of the leaders, who looked like an officer, was still loudly scolding the people in the courtyard to stand still and not to act rashly.
Other sergeants had already started searching from other embroidery buildings. Listening to the sergeants asking where the men who stayed overnight in the embroidery buildings were from? They also had to show their proof of residence in the inner city. Ming Zhiyuan frowned and turned around to carry his parcel on his back.
Behind you.
He looked at Jin Shu who had woken up on the bed and was still pretending to be asleep, "Miss Jin Shu, if those sergeants ask and say that I left early in the morning, you don't know where I am going, otherwise you will also be in trouble.
.”
After saying that, he jumped up, jumped onto the beam of the second floor, gently uncovered the mezzanine under the green tiles, and uncovered a few pieces of the green tiles, climbed directly to the roof, and covered the green tiles back to their original positions.
.
Ming Zhiyuan began to jump between several tall buildings. After a while, he came out of this courtyard lined with embroidered buildings. He climbed over several buildings next to Yihong Courtyard. When he landed again, he had already arrived at a lively place.
Extraordinary street.
But as soon as he stepped into the street and was looking for a place to eat, he saw two teams of sergeants with swords unsheathed running from both ends of the street, blocking the long street. Then the sergeants began to check everyone in the street from both ends.
At the inner city gate, even the bosses and clerks in shops can be checked without fail.
Ming Zhiyuan followed several people into a shop selling cooked food, thinking rapidly about how to escape.
Fortunately, the shop he was in was in the middle of the street, and the sergeants checking on both sides wouldn't be able to find it for a while.
He asked the waiter at the delicatessen shop to serve some food, and while eating, he listened to the progress of the sergeants on both sides.
After a while, he pretended to be in a hurry and asked the waiter where the east toilet was. Then he jumped into the backyard of the store, walked into the east toilet, followed the example of a gourd, jumped up to the roof and ran towards the outskirts of the inner city.
The inner city wall was much higher than the outer city wall. He came to the roof of a shop on a street next to the inner city wall and was wondering why there were so many patrolling guards on the inner city wall.
Then he looked at the densely packed sergeants patrolling the streets below, and he was very puzzled. When he went to the main building of the city last night, the patrols inside were not so strict. Why did even the inner city suddenly become so nervous today?
Did something happen? He asked himself that he had not left any traces when he entered the city's main building last night, which meant that something important had happened in Senlan City, or that a foreign enemy had invaded, so he searched the city with such great fanfare?
Seeing that every street in the inner city was cordoned off and searched, it was unlikely that he would be able to leave here during the day.
Ming Zhiyuan leaned down and jumped from the rooftops of this row. On the city main building in the distance, it seemed that someone was opening the corridors on all sides of the tall building, and someone began to look down at the situation in the inner city.
Ming Zhiyuan finally reached the roof of the rice and grain store where he entered the inner city, and found that the place had been guarded by sergeants.
I thought to myself, maybe it was this rice and grain shop that caused the trouble.
Ming Zhiyuan saw that he could no longer hide on the rooftops, so he had to hide and jump back to Yihong Building. This place had already been searched once, and there should not be another search in a short period of time.
He jumped to the roof of Jinshu's embroidered building, once again uncovered the green tiles that he had just uncovered in the morning, reached out and gently opened the lower compartment and looked down.
The bed below was covered by a white silk mosquito net, and Jin Shu could be vaguely seen lying on the bed with a wet wipe on her forehead. Her maid was sitting beside the bed taking care of her.
Ming Zhiyuan ducked into the building, restored the green tiles, and sat on the beam. The two women below were unaware of it. The maid was still mumbling.
"Miss, you shouldn't have lied for that scoundrel. Look, after one night, not only were you not given any money, but what kind of beatings were made to you? You should have let those sergeants catch him."
Ming Zhiyuan was sitting on the beam. Hearing the words of the maid, he couldn't help but feel a little ashamed. Although he didn't touch her at all, he let someone stay with her all night and knocked out a delicate woman twice. This was really unreasonable.
.
Jin Shu seemed a little impatient with the maid's nagging, so she said angrily: "Okay, okay, what can I say? He said that this guest is weird, he knocked me out twice in one night, and I don't know what to do.
Well, the Criminal Investigation Department has now taken you and me to the Prison of the Criminal Investigation Department and tortured us. I can only say that there is nothing unusual about the guests leaving early in the morning after a night of spring breeze. Otherwise, not only you and me, but also the entire Yihong
The whole hospital will be in serious trouble."
The maid pursed her lips, as if she still wanted to argue. After thinking for a moment, she saw that her young lady's face was extremely pale, so she had no choice but to hold back, and kept cursing the stranger, scoundrel, and ruffian last night.
curse roundly.
Ming Zhiyuan sat on the beam, listening to the maid scolding him, and could only smile bitterly to himself.
After a while, the maid put away the wet wipes, Jin Shu fell into a deep sleep, and then the maid quietly went downstairs.
Ming Zhiyuan waited for a long time, but the maid stopped coming upstairs, so he jumped down gently and stood at the window to peek down. The servants and women in the courtyard were busy cleaning the seats among the flower trees.
Chair, nothing is different.
He walked back to the bed and saw Jin Shu sleeping deeply with long breathing.
He took out a magic pill from the package. This kind of magic pill can strengthen the body and get rid of old diseases even if people who are not practicing it take it.
It’s just that people who don’t practice can only take half a pill at a time, and there must be an interval of more than three days between consecutive takings.
With the pen and ink on the desk, Ming Zhiyuan wrote the instructions for taking the elixir on a piece of paper and put the elixir aside.
Feeling that the breathing behind him suddenly started to become disordered, he turned around, walked to the bed, and said, "No need to pretend."
He picked up the elixir on the table, divided half of it, handed it to her, and said, "Take it, it will be my apology to you."
Jin Shu hugged the quilt and shrank to the corner of the bed, with tears in her eyes, "Young master, please let me go. I don't know anything and I won't say anything. Please spare my life, sir."
.”
Ming Zhiyuan looked at Jin Shu's extremely frightened expression and knew that she had misunderstood and thought that he wanted to kill someone when he returned.
Without explaining much, he reached out and grabbed Jin Shu, put half of the spiritual pill in his hand into her mouth, then reached out and touched her back lightly, and the half of the spiritual pill followed this move.
The palm slipped into Jin Shu's belly.
"Don't worry. If I want to kill you, I don't have to work so hard. This is a panacea for keeping healthy. I feel a little sorry for you, so I should compensate you."
As he spoke, he put the other half pill in her hand and said, "The remaining half pill will be taken again in three days."
Jin Shu felt that half of the pill had entered her stomach. She was so frightened that she could not speak. She only thought that this man was cruel and wanted to poison her. When she heard what Ming Zhiyuan said, she was a little skeptical, but she did not dare to tell him.
Suspicion showed on his face, so he could only pretend to be happy and said: "Thank you for your kindness. I will definitely not betray you. Please rest assured."
Ming Zhiyuan knew that she would not believe him for a while, and did not say much to her. He just sat cross-legged on the floor, thinking about how to spend the night, and then find a way to leave this forest-blue inner city.
