Chapter 1903 Whereabouts Exposed
After doing all this and making sure that the prefect would not die, the secret guard left the woodshed. The door was closed again, and no light could be seen.
Xiaoqing's death made Chen Changli and Wan Shufang realize that Lingyin's yard was not safe either. They went to find Lingyin and planned to evacuate with her.
But Lingyin didn't want to leave. She turned her head away. Next to her pillow was Xiaoqing's hairpin: "I want to stay with Xiaoqing. I can't leave until my revenge is paid."
"Lingyin, since that group of people have discovered Xiaoqing, they know we are here. They are ruthless and we must leave."
Wan Shufang reached out to pull the bell, but it didn't move. Just as she was getting angry, she felt a warmth on her hand. She looked up and saw Chen Changli gently shaking his head.
"Shufang, let her choose for herself."
"But..." She wanted to say something else, but when she met Chen Changli's serious eyes, she finally swallowed the words.
The two held hands, and Wan Shufang looked back every few steps as she left Lingyin's room.
After the door was closed, she immediately looked at Chen Changli with some disapproval, and said in a serious tone: "Chen Changli, what are you doing? Let Lingyin stay here. She is in danger."
"I know, but you can't persuade her now. Let her calm down. Wait until we have sorted out everything, and then think of a solution. If that doesn't work, we can only use some tricks."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang instantly understood what Chen Changli meant. If Lingyin still didn't want to leave at that time, then they would have to take her away by force.
For Lingyin's safety, Wan Shufang naturally agreed and nodded gently: "Okay."
She looked into the house with burning eyes, her expression complicated and helpless, but finally she left to pack up her things and prepare to evacuate.
Those who were lurking in Qingcheng, after killing Xiaoqing, quickly left the city and reported the situation to the leading ghost-faced man.
The ghost-faced man was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Chen Changli and Wan Shufang escaped again.
"Damn it, these two are really lucky. They can't be killed even with this."
With so many lives lost, he originally intended to make sure Chen Changli and Wan Shufang would never recover, but he didn't expect them to escape so easily.
"A bunch of trash!"
The ghost-faced man snorted coldly, anger gradually overflowing from his body, frightening the people below to shrink into the corner, not daring to move, for fear of being affected. After he lost his temper, he calmed down and ordered in a deep voice: "You guys, go to the wooden house immediately and take Amir and Yang Afu away."
"Yes, master." The subordinates took the order and left. After some people left, only a few were left by the ghost-faced man. He looked at these people, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.
"You guys, go spread the news in the city and incite the people. Say that Chen Changli and Wan Shufang killed the governor to cover up their crimes and that the man is hiding in Lingyin's yard."
"Yes, Master!"
The men in black took the order and left, their figures quickly disappearing into the night. They sneaked back into the city and did as the Ghost-faced Man ordered.
Soon, rumors spread throughout the city, and the disappearance of the prefect confirmed that Chen Changli and Wan Shufang had fled for fear of crime and had committed murder and escaped from prison.
The next morning, Chen Changli and Wan Shufang had just gotten up when they heard a quarrel at the door. Their faces changed, and they immediately became alert and quietly approached the door.
Outside the door, people were shouting. Chen Changli frowned and lowered his voice, "Oh no! People from Qingcheng are here. From the sound, it seems that the courtyard has been surrounded."
"This...how do we get out?" Wan Shufang asked anxiously. They had just packed up their things and were about to leave, but they were unexpectedly surrounded.
Before they could come up with a solution, the people outside the door suddenly shouted.
"The murderer is inside. Come on, knock on the door and make them pay for the dead."
"Go on!"
A loud noise was heard outside the door, and Chen Changli's eyes fixed.
"Shufang, go quickly." He pulled Wan Shufang's hand and stepped back, shouting behind him. The secret guards immediately rushed out and blocked the door at the moment when the people knocked on it.
The gate shook, but it was not broken open for a while.
"Master, what should we do now?"
"These people are coming with great force, they will definitely not leave easily. A few secret guards won't be able to stop them for long." Lingyin also ran out to agree, and seeing this scene, hatred gradually emerged in her eyes.
It was these Qingcheng people who couldn't tell right from wrong who emboldened the prefect's arrogance!
They are all guilty.
"Lingyin, we have to leave now. You go in first and take the necessary things with you. We will find a way out."
Hearing this, Lingyin was silent for a moment, and finally turned around and went back into the house. Seeing that she was willing to leave, Wan Shufang also breathed a sigh of relief.
The secret guards blocked the door while the two men tried hard to think of a plan to evacuate safely.
The door couldn't be opened and the people outside realized it only slowly, and they didn't know who shouted.
"Everyone, try harder. The door can't be broken open. They must be blocking it from inside. Chen Changli and Wan Shufang are inside."
But after these words were spoken, the people stopped what they were doing. The scene of being knocked unconscious by Wan Shufang was still imprinted in their minds, and they did not dare to force their way in again.
As everyone hesitated, an older man stood up and shouted into the yard.
"Chen Changli, Wan Shufang, you have killed so many people. If you know what's best for you, come out and confess your crimes. Otherwise, aren't you afraid that the wronged souls will come after you to claim your lives?"
Hearing this, everyone followed suit.
"There's no point in hiding. You'll get your comeuppance sooner or later."
"My poor son, you bastards, you will not die a good death, and your body will be left exposed in the wilderness after you die."
They cursed Chen Changli and Wan Shufang with the most vicious words, their faces full of anger and hatred. Every word they said made Chen Changli so angry that he wanted to go out and smash those people's mouths.
"hateful!"
"Chen Changli, calm down. Ignorance is not a crime. They are just worried because they are concerned..." Wan Shufang pulled him, knowing that he didn't want to be scolded.
But now is not the time to compete with the people.
The people were afraid of the drugs and did not dare to force their way in, but they stayed outside the door, so Chen Changli and Wan Shufang could not get out either, and the situation came to a standstill.
At this moment, the prefect woke up and heard the noisy sound outside. He tentatively moved towards the door and eavesdropped quietly. After making sure that there was no one guarding the room, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.
"Great, there's no one guarding here. Here's my chance to escape."
The prefect endured the pain and found a way to remove the black cloth covering his eyes. After he could see the light again, he crawled into the yard with great effort.
"Why does this place look so familiar..." the governor murmured, looking up and looking around. The torture of the past few days had made his brain a little dull.
But soon, he recognized where it was.
"It's Lingyin's yard!"
"Damn it! This vicious woman is a traitor. She even dared to team up with outsiders to bully me."
He clenched his fists and pounded the ground, then turned around and saw Lingyin packing her bags and preparing to run away in the yard. He was so angry that he started cursing.
"Poisonous woman, bitch!"
The prefect's voice was not small. As soon as he opened his mouth, he was discovered by Chen Changli. He flew forward and kicked the man hard several times, leaving him half to death.
Chen Changli drew out his sword, and with a clang, the shining sword hung over the man's head.
"I'm warning you, be quiet, otherwise I won't spare your life."
The sword was pressed against the top of his head, and with a single push it could pierce through his head, killing him instantly.
