Li Chongjiu hit Dugu Xiude's nose with one punch, and with a click, the sound of the other party's nose bones shattered. Dugu Xiude sat heavily in the mud beside the road, and two blood came out of his nose, and he fainted as soon as he fell.

This time, I was caught off guard. Not only Dugu Xiude, but even a few soldiers did not react. Li Chongjiu glanced at him, took the opportunity to pull out a knife from Dugu Xiude's waist, and with his backhand, he cut off a long gun that had attacked behind him. Seeing Li Chongjiu resisting, more than a dozen soldiers rushed forward.

Li Chongjiu knew the truth that two fists were inferior to four hands, so he didn't dare to fight at the moment. He danced a sword flower to force the soldiers to retreat, and fought out a bloody path and ran along the street.

All the rammed earth walls were yellow, and soldiers were guarding the gates. Li Chongjiu held a knife in his hand and watched the streets of the later imperial capital, while running on the streets of the later imperial capital. Behind him were a series of soldiers chasing him.

At this time, the city gate had already sounded eighteen bells, and Li Chongjiu knew that the city gate was closed, and the sound of horse hooves on the street in front of him was ticking. When Li Chongjiu heard the sound of horse hooves, he knew that this was the arrival of the patrol cavalry. If the patrol cavalry was blocked in front of the street, it would be said that he could not escape.

"stop!"

"Stop it!"

More than a dozen Dugu Xiude soldiers shouted loudly behind their heads, less than twenty steps away.

At that moment, Li Chongjiu simply turned his mind and saw that the rammed wall next to him was a bit damaged, so he simply dug the rammed earth wall outside the knife. I wonder if Dugu Xiude's sword was cut like mud, or the earth wall had been soft after years, and this rammed earth wall that should have been hard. Li Chongjiu dug a lump of soil. Li Chongjiu stabbed him hard and inserted the knife into the wall half an inch.

After that, Li Chongjiu took a few steps back. He climbed from the hilt of the knife, and he climbed onto a rammed earth wall like a big bird. The pursuers and patrollers in the city were shocked when they saw this scene. They didn't believe that someone could jump so high that they could only watch Li Chongjiu climb over the wall.

Li Chongjiu climbed into the wall and breathed a sigh of relief. He heard someone shouting outside the wall, "How could this thief climb over such a high wall?"

He Laodao shouted, "Mom." We rushed in from the gate and searched me from door to door.

Li Chongjiu shook his head immediately. He just escaped the pursuit for a while, but it doesn't mean he is safe. Each of the Eighteen Houses of Youzhou is a square cage, and he cannot escape in the house. Although Li Chongjiu is taken away by Dugu Xiude now, if he is regarded as the King of Qi, he will silence the Dugu family. This is a huge injustice.

At that time, he could only reveal his current identity to protect himself. Now Xue Shixiong is eager to go south and never dares to catch a fire in the backyard, so he takes into account his own power. He dares not be embarrassed by himself. Instead, he should treat him as a guest of honor, but expose his identity. That is undoubtedly even more troublesome.

Li Chongjiu took a deep breath and looked up at the walls. The houses were divided into hundreds of courtyards. The houses were separated by horse head walls, and the blue bricks and tiles were a bit like the scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.

Li Chongjiu suddenly remembered that the Mingyue Tower seemed to be in the yard. Li Chongjiu thought that with his current identity, if he rashly hid in a house or an inn, he would have been searched, and only brothels like Mingyue Tower can accommodate him. This Mingyue Tower is a high-level social occasion for high-ranking officials and nobles in Jicheng. If he hides in it, ordinary soldiers will never dare to search.

Li Chongjiu must now escape for one night, and then contact Lin Dangfeng who is in the city, so he can find a way to get himself out of the city. Anyway, among the 20,000 soldiers in Zhuo County, there are already many generals who have been bribed by Lin Dangfeng, so it is not difficult to get out of the city with his own way. However, the most urgent task is to avoid the current pursuers first.

Li Chongjiu's heart sank and touched his bag. At least he still had half a day of money. At that moment, Li Chongjiu hid in the unmanned alley, took off his coat and walked over, then messed up the bun on his head and tied it up again. After a makeover, he identified the path and hurried towards Mingyue Tower.

After walking for a while, when he was about to reach Mingyue Tower, Li Chongjiu suddenly saw more than a dozen Sui army soldiers wearing yellow war robes in front of him, together with several security chiefs and the village chiefs, knocking on the door with guns and asking the security chiefs to recognize people and search.

Li Chongjiu thought it was not good. He saw that the back door of a courtyard next to his left hand was not tied. He didn't care about it and plunged into the courtyard.

The courtyard was deserted and seemed to be no one. Li Chongjiu was happy at the moment. It would be better if there were anyone. He looked up at the three-story building of Mingyue Tower, just a dozen steps away. It turned out that the courtyard and Mingyue Tower were originally yiti.

Li Chongjiu entered the backyard and carefully investigated. There was a pool in the backyard, and there was a small building with a hip-top next to the pool, and there were paths on the side leading to the wing room. Li Chongjiu thought that in the noisy place next to Mingyue Tower, there was such a quiet place, which was quite wonderful to hide in the city. But in this way, it should be the residence of prostitutes in Mingyue Tower. It was better that no one should come here to search.

Li Chongjiuzuoyou looked at it and saw a house full of firewood. Without saying a word, Li Chongjiu thought to himself that the tiger was in the sun and could not choose a house, so he quietly passed by the small bridge on the pool and entered the firewood.

After that, he entered the place against the wall, filled the firewood piles, covered them tightly, and hid in it, pricked up his ears and listened to the movements beside him. After hiding for a while, Li Chongjiu heard the rude and noisy sound of the men outside the yard, but the yard was very quiet.

Li Chongjiu calmed down a little, leaned against the wall, pressed his hand on the knife, squinted his eyes, and slept for a long time.

The next day, a woman came to move the firewood. The woman muttered, "Those new actors are really good, and they don't let you sleep early in the morning," and so on. She moved two balls of firewood away.

Li Chongjiu thought that this place should not be kept for a long time, so he got up and went out with the woman. Li Chongjiu walked a long way with the wall, and heard someone shouting from afar: "Hey, what are you doing?"

Li Chongjiu felt a stern in his heart and said, "I am a new actor and don't know the way."

The man smiled and said, "Idiot, when I left Changyuan, I said that our Mingyue Tower is so big, don't walk around if you don't know the road."

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "There is no way, I have diarrhea."

At that moment, Li Chongjiu entered a yard as he said, and there were a row of wings beside the garden. Several early-floor women were sitting alone in the railing or playing and chatting. There was a faint sound of silk and bamboo coming from behind the wings.

Li Chongjiu walked across the stone path and walked around the wing room. He saw a girl sitting in the tile room full of heads, listening to the piano player playing the piano carefully. He just heard the sound of silk and bamboo, which was the piano player playing.

Seeing this, Li Chongjiu sighed softly.

"Brother Li?"

The voice was clear, and Li Chongjiu was stunned when he heard this. When he turned around, he saw Qu Yanran, who was holding the pipa in his hand, was standing there quietly. Her slender figure set off against the pipa, like a faint ink painting, and a smile appeared on the other person's face in an instant.
