Chapter 5 Captured

After reading the content on Jinbu, Li Gou'er's thoughts were rolling, and suddenly she had a thought, "Concubine Li is not her father..." The sister who has been separated for many years, right?"

Li Gou'er shook her head and felt that she was thinking too much. Her father once said that Lijia Village was a big village back then, with a population of more than 1,000. Most people took Li as their surname. The possibility that Concubine Li was her aunt was very low.

Moreover, there is a very eye-catching red line written at the bottom of the Jinbu. Those who dare to "scam" will all be considered as guilty and die. With such serious consequences, all Li Gou'er's thoughts will be immediately dispelled.

Li Gou'er returned to her seat and sat down. Zhu Zhengguo said: "What's so good about this thing? It's pasted everywhere in various prefectures and counties in Henan Province."

"Why don't I have it there?"

"Yes, there are, but it's not as dense as Henan Dao. After all, Concubine Li is a Taoist in Henan."

Zhu Zhengguo didn't want to talk too much about this boring problem, so he pointed to the gate of the guide city and said, "They are leaving."

Li Gou'er stretched out her head and looked over when she heard this. As expected, the group of people had already shown signs of leaving.

"Why did it suddenly open?"

Zhu Zhengguo was not distracted and was always very focused on the situation at the city gate: "Just just now, a few soldiers riding horses entered the city and seemed to have negotiated something with those people. It should be that officers of higher levels came, so they were not allowed to do this."

A moment later, the playboy rode a horse and hurriedly left with a large group of people.

Li Gou'er was overjoyed and quickly stood up: "Pack up the food and we will leave the city immediately."

"Don't worry, wait."

Zhu Zhengguo grabbed Li Gou'er, robbery was a serious crime. Once he was caught, he would have to lose his skin even if he didn't die. He must be cautious.

They all left, what are you waiting for?

Li Gou'er thought about it and whispered: "Are you afraid that they will shoot back?"

Zhu Zhengguo shook his head without explanation, but just called the waiter to pack the food, and then the two of them sat there and waited quietly.

It took two quarters of an hour to wait, and there was no movement on the other side of the city gate, and no one was entering and leaving the city gate. The soldiers guarding the gate had already begun to prepare to close the city gate.

At this time, seven or eight passers-by drove two carriages into the city. It was probably because the businessman who left the city to do business had missed the time and came back a little late.

"Let's go." Zhu Zhengguo stood up suddenly and pulled Li Gou'er away with big strode.

After leaving the restaurant, Zhu Zhengguo greeted the group of people.

"My man, what's going on outside the city?"

Zhu Zhengguo stopped a man in his thirties and holding a long stick in his hand.

The man glanced at Zhu Zhengguo: "Why do you ask that?"

Zhu Zhengguo smiled and said, "Aren't there many refugees gathered outside the city? I want to leave the city to do business. It's getting late, and I'm afraid it's not safe."

So that's the case, the man said, "There are no pedestrians outside the city. After you leave the city, it's nothing big about it. It's the case when we come back."

"Thank you!"

Zhu Zhengguo said thanking him with a fist and was about to leave. The man was kind-hearted and held the stick in his hand and reminded him: "It seems that you are strong, so it's better to bring a guy in your hand, which is safer."

Thank you again, Zhu Zhengguo and Li Gou'er walked quickly towards the city gate.

"This military master has missed the time for work. Please let us leave the city."

The soldier who had already closed the door turned around and looked at the two of them, saying very annoyedly: "You should leave quickly, don't waste your time."

"Yes, yes, let's go now."

Zhu Zhengguo was overjoyed and ran out quickly with Li Gou'er.

Finally, they came out. The two of them looked at each other and saw the joy on each other's face. Li Gou'er said happily: "Brother Zhu, after leaving here, I will definitely buy you a better pair of armor and big swords."

A pair of armor and a big sword would take a big bag to fit it. It was so late, and leaving the city with such a big bag would easily attract the attention of the soldiers guarding the gate, so they were not taken away. They were obviously not going to come back, and the armor and the big sword were abandoned.

Zhu Zhengguo smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. With those dozens of gold and hundreds of taels of silver, we can do something together, and I'll be a soldier!"

"That's right, with this money, we can live a better life."

Li Gou'er nodded repeatedly, covered her chest, and put dozens of gold she stolen there.

The two trotted forward without following the man's advice. They were just going to the refugee gathering place. So after leaving the city, they walked along the main road and walked a few miles away. A sound of horse hooves came, and several cavalrymen rushed out from the corner of a hillside next to them, blocking Zhu Zhengguo and Li Gou'er.

Li Gou'er and Zhu Zhengguo were shocked on the spot. Zhu Zhengguo looked at them a few times and his face changed slightly. These cavalrymen were all wearing bright light armor, red tassel helmets, and long swords on their waists. This is the standard dress for the palace guards. How could they appear here in the middle of the night and block their way?

Zhu Zhengguo asked with his fists: "Several military masters blocked the way, what's wrong?"

"Stop and don't move."

A cavalry looked at him coldly and didn't say much nonsense to him at all.

"The city gate has been closed. If it is not the person you are looking for, I have no choice."

The voice of speaking came from the side. Li Gou'er turned her head and looked at him. More than a dozen cavalrymen were heading towards this side, followed by dozens of people behind them.

The cavalry leader was a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy with a pretty appearance and a very white skin. He rode side by side with him a cavalry officer in his thirties. Beside the cavalry officer, he bent down and saluted there repeatedly. It was when he saw this young man that the faces of Li Gou'er and Zhu Zhengguo suddenly turned pale.

Two cavalrymen rushed to Li Gou'er and Zhu Zhengguo with torches, illuminating their appearance.

"It was them, general, and these two evil men who attacked us."

This young man was no other person, but one of the two followers of the playboy. He recognized Li Gou'er and Zhu Zhengguo at a glance and shouted loudly.

The cavalry officer glanced at Li Gou'er and Zhu Zhengguo, sneered, turned around and shouted to the people behind him, "It's okay, you can leave."

As soon as these people left the city, they were detained by these soldiers. Now they were inexplicably letting them go. They were full of doubts, but they dared not ask more questions at this moment. With the kindness of the leading officer, they immediately scattered.

"You two dog thieves, you still want to run away after being injured. See where you can run away."

The follower came to Li Gou'er, cursed, then raised his head and laughed loudly, with a very arrogant attitude.

At this time, there was another sound of horse hooves behind him. After a while, the playboy led a dozen servants to the scene.

The playboy looked at Li Gou'er and Zhu Zhengguo coldly, then stepped forward and bowed to the cavalry officer and said, "Person Wang is indeed a clever plan. He used a little trick to capture these two thieves."
