Chapter 52 Pork High
The wall is very high, and if there is no ladder, you can't get over it. You can only see if there is a door or a gap. Yi Xingchen walked forward along the wall and walked more than ten steps and was surprised to find that a small door was knocked open. It should have been smashed hard by the officers and soldiers when they rushed in. They could go out through the small door.
When he arrived outside the door, he hesitated a little. Since the journey was so smooth, should he go back and send Li Xuehao directly to Zhuo Gao? But he immediately gave up the idea. Because the apprentice he inherited was a half-grown child with malnutrition at the age of 15 or 16, while Li Xuehao was a tall and strong young man. He couldn't carry that guy, let alone he had to walk so far, and was injured, so he was afraid that he would not be able to bump. If he had to meet the officers and soldiers who were inspected along the way, he would die miserably.
He identified the direction and quickly ran towards the pork shop where the pork was tall.
When he arrived at the intersection, he found that many official troops set up checkpoints, blocking pedestrians from passing. So he got into the alley, using the familiar terrain, circled around the east and west, and finally walked around the pork shop with high pork.
On the way, he heard the sound of clamoring and knew that it was almost five o'clock now, which means that it would be dawn in another hour and must speed up.
He panted and came to the door of the pork-high shop, slapped the door panel, and shouted loudly: "Pork-high! Open the door! If there is an urgent matter, open the door!"
Soon, the pork loud voice came: "Who? What's the matter?"
"You open the door first. If you have urgent matters, hurry up!"
After a moment, a door panel was taken off, and Pork Gao was holding a small lantern, looking at him in confusion.
Seeing that he was dressed neatly, Yi Xingchen understood that it was probably the fire in the mansion that attracted his attention. He might have put on his clothes and went to see it. He just came back and did not take off his clothes to sleep. From this point of view, the pork height is probably really related to the White Lotus Sect in the mansion.
Yi Xingchen looked around and took a step forward, lowered his voice and said, "There is a man named Li Xuehao, let me tell you that he is seriously injured. I hope you can go with me to save him."
When he heard this, Zhuo Gao was shocked and his eyes widened. Then he stared at Yi Xingchen with vigilance, his voice also low: "I don't know who the person you are talking about is."
Yi Xingchen looked at him for a moment, shrugged: "That may be because I made a mistake. I'm sorry to bother me, goodbye." Yi Xingchen turned around and left.
Pork looked up to him and took more than ten steps, but he didn't seem to be pretending, so he chased him out and said, "Wait!"
Yi Xingchen turned his head and looked at him.
Pork Gao came to him with a lantern, looking around and looking at no one, then lowered his voice and said, "Where is the person you are talking about? Is he seriously injured?"
"Don't you know each other? Why do you ask this?"
Zhuo Gao looked a little embarrassed and smiled and said, "I'm sorry, I just remembered that there is such a person, who is not very familiar with friends. But since they ask me, I am a good person. If you can, please help me. Can you take me to see him?"
Yi Xingchen nodded and said, "You just said you don't know this person, but now you suddenly say you know him. I have to verify your identity. I only know that you are called Zhuruogao. What is your name? Li Xuehao told me your name, and I will take you there if I say it right."
"My surname is indeed Gao, and my name is Gao Youfeng."
"Which word is Feng? Is the peak of the mountain?"
"No, it's the blade's edge."
Yi Xingchen nodded slowly and said, "Yes, the name matches. Well, I'll take you there, but you'd better bring the medicine box. He was seriously injured and was hit by a sword in his chest, bleeding a lot. I wonder if he's still alive after we go."
Pork Gao then panicked and said, "Okay, wait, I'll get the medicine box."
Pork ran into the pork shop quickly. After a moment, he came out and carried a medicine box on his back, but did not hold a lantern. He must have tried his best to minimize the goal and not let others discover it.
Yi Xingchen didn't ask much, and took him away from the street guarded by the government troops, and went to the alley to go back to the burned mansion in Tongluo Lane, and still entered through the broken door to the south. He still encountered no one along the way. The people who put out the fire concentrated in the fire room to put out the fire. They were garden ponds, and several houses had been completely burned, so there were no one to put out the fire.
Yi Xingchen took him to the stone slab and said, "He was in the cellar below. He was injured. When I talked about this place, I hid him in the cellar below. I pried open the bluestone slab and saw the entrance of the passage."
Originally, the pork was a little bit suspicious, and he was very cautious along the way, but at this time, he heard Yi Xingchen accurately tell the place where he was hiding, and immediately knew that Yi Xingchen was not lying. He nodded gratefully to Yi Xingchen and said, "Thank you."
Pork Gao squatted down, took out a dagger from the boot, pried the bluestone slab up, then gently pushed it away, and jumped down first. Yi Xingchen also jumped down. Pork Gao immediately pulled the bluestone slab over and covered it. He was obviously familiar with the passage, so he found the entrance to the basement and walked quickly. Yi Xingchen followed behind.
The two came to the basement. Zhu Ke Gao saw Li Xuehao lying on the floor, and hurried over and squatted down, hugged Li Xuehao who was unconscious, and called out, "Young Master, wake up."
Li Xuehao had fainted and was so shaking that he could not wake up. Pork Gao put him down again, took the medicine box, opened it, took out a few bottles from it, and looked at it, then took a porcelain bottle from it, poured out a few pills from it, and put it in Li Xuehao's mouth. Yi Xingchen had already brought him a bowl of water. He sent the pills to Li Xuehao with water, then took open the wound bandaged by Yi Xingchen, took clean water, and poured the powder on it. The powder was obviously very irritating to the wound. Li Xuehao couldn't help but thrust in pain, frowned, but still did not wake up.
After finishing all this, Pork Gao breathed a sigh of relief, gently placed Li Xuehao on the floor, and helped him pull a thin quilt to cover it.
At this time, Yi Xingchen's voice came from behind him. He held half a bowl of water and handed it to pork Gao: "Drink some water, thank you for your hard work."
Pork Gao was anxious because he was worried about Li Xuehao's injuries. He felt his throat dry, so he smiled, said thank you, took the water and drank it.
After drinking water, Pork Gao calmed down a little, and sat where he was sitting and staring at Li Xuehao who was unconscious. After a while, he turned to Xingchen and said, "Little brother, thank you, by the way, how did you find out that he was injured?"
"I passed by here and saw the fire, so I wanted to come in to help put out the fire. But I found that he was slowly trying to climb open the house that was on fire, but he couldn't climb. The house next to him was about to burn him, so I dragged him away. Then he told me the place, and told me the name, asking me to come to you, that's it. - Well, since you are here, I should go back, otherwise my master would be worried."
After saying that, Yi Xingchen turned around and walked quickly into the passage without waiting for the pork to speak.
Pork Gao watched his back disappear into the depths of the passage, and a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. He gently pulled out the dagger from his boots and quickly chased into the passage.
This passage is curved and winding upwards, and the lights in the basement cannot illuminate that far, so there is basically no thing in the passage, so you can only move forward by fumble.
Pork Gao chased him to the bluestone slab, but he did not find Yi Xingchen, nor did he feel that the stone slab had been moved.
He exclaimed, touching the stone slab on his head very much. It must have been touched by anyone. In such a short time, Yi Xingchen would never be able to get out and cover the bluestone slab. He secretly complained in his heart that he turned around and walked back.
