“The prisoners in the prison have all escaped.”

The patrolling soldiers found the escaped prisoners and chased them all over the street.

Ji Shuisheng was even more worried about Su Qing. He jumped onto the wail of the Su residence and saw the torches flashing on the street. The fugitives were being chased until they cried and were in a mess.

Ji Shuisheng jumped off the wall to look for Su Qing. He killed the Wan Family Army soldiers who were alone. This made things even more chaotic.

Su Qing was also on this street. When she saw the Wan Family Army chasing after criminals, she followed them and used Ji Shuisheng’s Luan Dao to behead them all. Tonight, General Xiao Heng’s Luan Dao had drunk the blood of the Wan Family Army.

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng killed the Wan Family Army as they walked. They killed all the patrolling soldiers on the street. The two of them met in the middle of the street. Ji Shuisheng saw Su Qing, whose clothes were fluttering in the wind. She held the Luan saber in her hand and strode towards him.

The first rays of the morning sun rose behind her. Su Qing’s pitch-black eyes looked at Ji Shuisheng with a smile. Ji Shuisheng saw that Su Qing’s heart was at ease and smiled at her.

The two of them went back to the mansion and slept comfortably. Luo City was in a mess. The commander of the Wan family army led his troops to put out the fire the entire night and only managed to put it out in the morning. They saw Zhizhou’s head and body burned into charcoal when they entered the inner hall. The line of red words on the wall was very eye-catching.

The commander-in-chief’s face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He immediately ordered people to send a pigeon to General Wan. It was written that the remnants of the previous dynasty had caused chaos in Luo City and that the great killing weapon had suffered heavy losses!

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng slept until noon when hurried knocks on the door woke them up. Ji Shuisheng put on his cotton robe and went to open the door. A team of bailiffs rushed in.

Ji Shuisheng cupped his fists and asked,

“Officials, what’s the matter?”

The leading soldier narrowed his eyes and sized up Ji Shuisheng. Was he safe and sound living in this haunted house? He said rudely to Ji Shuisheng,

“There was a rebellion in the city last night.”

“Search, we’ll cooperate.”

Ji Shuisheng quickly showed he was very cooperative and even personally accompanied them to search.

When the soldiers searched the vicinity of the secret room, Ji Shuisheng was a little worried that they would find out. Fortunately, the entrance of the secret room was under the stable and was very well hidden. The soldiers did not find it and went over safely.

When the soldiers searched the inner chamber, they saw a brand-new yellow talisman pasted on the door frame. It was a talisman drawn with red cinnabar.

The soldier felt that Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing had survived the night safely because of this talisman. This was a good thing, so he asked Ji Shuisheng,

“Where did this come from?”

“Official, this talisman was given to me by an accomplished expert 1 met on Mount Wutai. It is very effective.”

Ji Shuisheng replied proudly. He was the one who drew this talisman to fool these soldiers. Otherwise, the bailiffs who were staring at them would go wild. It would easily arouse suspicion if nothing happened to the two of them.

“Mister, good fortune.”

Envy flashed in the eyes of the soldiers. This was an opportunity that could only be encountered by luck.

After the soldiers left, Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing went to the largest teahouse in Luo City. The two of them found a seat by the window and sat down. Very few people were in the teahouse after such a big incident last night, but a few customers were discussing what happened last night in low voices. Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng listened quietly.

There were storytellers in the teahouse. It was simply too comfortable to listen to the storytellers, drink the best jasmine tea, eat sweet and soft pastries, and watch the soldiers running back and forth on the street with lanterns.

When noon arrived, Ji Shuisheng and Su Qing did not see the person they wanted to see. They went to the restaurant again. Luo City was in chaos. The rich were afraid they could not spend their money, so they were busy packing up and preparing to escape Luo City. There were not many customers in the restaurant.

Su Qing and Ji Shuisheng ate and drank to their heart’s content. They bought the rest of the horse meat, which was more than 20 catties, using the excuse that the restaurant’s horse meat was very delicious.

When he came out of the restaurant to buy grain from the grain store, the price of grain had skyrocketed. In the past, he could only buy one grain with the money he used to buy two grains.

Su Qing bought polished rice and white flour. She had robbed the Zhizhou of so much money. She was not afraid of the price but was worried that she would not be able to buy anything.

Before she found Yin Ling, she could not leave Luo City. Su Qing also wanted to use these few days to make the Wan Family Army panic like a stray dog.

During the day, she and Ji Shuisheng slept in the Su residence. At night, they brought detonators to blow up the camp. After blowing it up twice, the Wan Family Army did not dare to live in the military base and scattered to private houses lest they become entirely wiped out.

This was the first time the powerful Wan Family Army was in such a panic. Who knew when that great killing weapon that could blow people up into the sky would blow them into pieces?

However, it was useless even if they hid in private houses. They were still found and killed. All of them were beheaded and dismembered. The remaining Wan Family Army in Luo City was like headless flies, arresting people on the streets. As long as they saw a strong man, they would arrest him.

However, if they arrested people during the day, they would be released at night. All the guards would be killed, and the scene would be left with a line of bloody words that would make them jump in fear.

The worst thing was that their rations had been stolen and distributed to the poor people of Luo City. No one saw what the people who delivered the rations looked like. They just threw the sacks of allocations from the wall into the courtyard.

The Wan Clan Army, who had vented their anger on the innocent people, would be killed immediately. Before they died, they were tortured, and their bodies were covered in injuries. Their expressions were extremely painful.

This made the remaining soldiers of the Wan family not dare to kill the civilians casually. They were bitterly waiting for Wan Yulin to send reinforcements.

Five days passed in a flash, and the Wan Family Army could no longer be seen on the streets of Luo City. During the day, they would guard and close the city gates to prevent people from entering and leaving. It would be fine if they did not let the previous dynasty’s evil people go. They would wait for reinforcements to come before arresting them.

Those rich people who wanted to escape from Luo City were chased back. They could only stay in Luo City and live in fear.

Su Qing still went to the teahouse to drink tea every day. Ji Shuisheng thought that she wanted to observe the movements of the city guards. He did not expect her to be waiting for someone.

Su Qing waited patiently. She went to the teahouse in the morning and sat quietly for the whole day with a pot of jasmine tea.

Ji Shuisheng was busy assassinating the Wan Family Army, so he had no time to accompany her. In the last two days, Su Qing was the only one left.

Today was the sixth day. Su Qing couldn’t help but feel anxious. Could it be that her method didn’t work?

Once the fifteen days were up, regardless of whether they found Silver Bell, they had to let Shuisheng return first. If Qiu Yongkang defected to the imperial court, the imperial court would have already sent troops to attack Mo City.

Su Qing waited until noon, but the person she wanted to see still didn’t come. She could only call the waiter to settle the accounts.

Just as Su Qing was about to leave after paying for the tea, she heard the sound of someone going upstairs. The footsteps were quite hurried.

Su Qing’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly walked away and sat back on the stool, quietly looking at the staircase.

The person she was waiting for was here!
