Chapter 107 Trapped in Cao Mansion

Zeng Jia immediately agreed and rode the boat to Bailu Town. However, Zeng Jia was slow to rock the boat, so Guo Rong went to replace him and used his skills to rock the boat. As expected, he was much faster to go.

After arriving at Bailu, everyone chose to dock the boat on a shore that was rarely visited, and then got off the boat. Shen Zonglin thought for a while, called Guo Rong who was tied to the boat, and shouted: "Junior brother, it's blowing north wind now. It's better to let the boat wander in Dongting Lake." When Guo Rong heard this, he didn't understand what he meant yet, and asked: "Second Brother, what's the point?" Shen Zonglin just smiled and said: "It has a deep meaning." Guo Rong thought about it and then realized it. So he got on the boat again, shook the boat one or two meters away from the shore, and then he abandoned the boat and jumped back to the shore. Everyone walked slowly in the countryside, and soon came to Bailu Town.

Bailu Town is a small town, mainly where fishermen live. There is no big inn in the town. I saw an inn called "Lakeside" that is relatively spacious and tidy, so everyone stayed here. After entering the inn, everyone had their meals and went back to their rooms to rest. Shen Zonglin, Guo Rong and Huang Fang went to the town to buy supplies. Zeng Jia must follow and said, "It seems that you don't have much silver on you. Isn't it good to have a rich man follow you?" As he said, he took out a stack of Daming treasure money from his body and swayed it around and rustled. Huang Fang smiled sweetly and said, "Okay, then go out with us." So the four of them went to the market to buy a lot of clothes, cosmetics, etc.

Zeng Jia said, "It's still a long way to Jiujiang here, so why not buy some horses and carriages." Shen Zonglin said, "As long as the third young master gives you money, you can buy anything." So, he bought three more horses and three more horses. There are no tall horses in Bailu Town, all of them are thin horses that can drive goods and run. But such horses have longer endurance. The carriages are just ordinary and simple little carriages. After returning to the Lakeside Inn, everyone began to prepare.

The next day, everyone put on their makeup before getting on the road. Pan Rongrong took the carriage driven by Ling Tie Tower. Huang Fang took the carriage driven by Zeng Jia. Although he was not good at driving a carriage, he insisted on being Huang Fang's coachman. Everyone knew what he was thinking, so he let him not compete with him. Shen Zonglin smiled and said, "Third Master, you are a rich man, what does it look like to be a coachman?" Zeng Jia smiled and said, "I like to be a coachman. Did you buy it yourself.

Don't the carriage be a poor coachman?" Shen Zonglin said, "But since you are a rich man, we all listen to you. Hahaha!" Everyone laughed loudly, and Huang Fang smiled happily in the carriage. The carriage He Lewei was riding was naturally driven by Li Min. Huang Zhong, Guo Rong and Shen Zonglin were riding on horses. Because everyone was injured, they did not just rush the horse to rush on the road, but let the horse go and rest.

When passing by the foot of Mount Lushan, everyone looked up at Mount Lu, which was lush and straight into the sky, stretching for a hundred miles, and they all sighed. Shen Zonglin said, "After our Jiujiang matter is handled, we must go up and visit it." Huang Fang said, "I don't think it is much higher than Tianmen Mountain. After the Jiujiang matter is handled, we should rush back to Tianmen Mountain to pay homage to his master as soon as possible." Shen Zonglin sighed, "Junior sister is right." Huang Zhong asked, "What kind of person is your master? I want to see his true face of Mount Lu." Huang Fang said, "Grandpa, then you and my aunt will follow us to Tianmen Mountain." Huang Zhong agreed.

In the evening, everyone went to Yujiahe outside Jiujiang City to stay. There was an inn in Yujiahe Town, named "Yujia" Inn, where everyone stayed to rest. At the second update, Shen Zonglin summoned everyone to gather in his room and whispered: "We four of us go to the city tonight to inquire." Guo Rongxi said: "The second senior brother is right, and we have to hurry up and act. But where can we go to inquire?" Shen Zonglin said: "Junior brother, listen to the senior brother first. Learn from the previous experience and lessons. This time we cannot take action. We must leave one person to protect him, just in case." Li Minxing nodded and said: "What the second junior brother said makes sense. The backyard cannot catch another fire. Now it is a critical moment." Seeing that the senior brother agreed, Shen Zonglin continued: "I think it is most appropriate for the senior brother to stay."

Li Minxing asked in surprise: "Why?" Shen Zonglin said: "Senior Brother, your kung fu is not to mention. Staying here is enough to ensure the safety of the people here. Secondly, you are injured at the moment, so you should not be able to work hard if there is any sudden situation here. Besides, the junior brother and sister have improved a lot of martial arts, and it is enough for the three of us to go. Senior brother, do you see if your analysis is reasonable?" Guo Rong and Huang Fang both nodded beside him and said: "The second senior brother is reasonable." Li Minxing thought for a while and said: "The responsibility for staying is not light, okay, you can get out as soon as possible. If you have a senior brother here, don't worry." The three nodded and immediately went back to the room to prepare.

Huang Fang went to see Zeng Jia first and said, "San Young Master, did you say Brother Yun and the others have returned to Zengjiazhuang?" Zeng Jia said in a daze: "That's not clear. However, I'm missing this young master. I think my second brother-in-law wouldn't go back so soon." Huang Fang said, "Do you still remember the direction of the Cao Mansion?" Zeng Jia nodded, and Huang Fang continued to ask, "How do you want to go there? You know that the second senior brother is leading the way. We will enter the city tomorrow. Tell me first, so that the second senior brother knows how to go in advance, and not tomorrow.

It will be messy." Zeng Jia smiled and said, "Of course I remember. It's good. If we go like this, they will definitely not recognize us, so they can tease them. However, if Miss Wei is still in Cao's Mansion, will Shen Daxia be embarrassed when he sees it?" Huang Fang smiled and said, "If you don't show your true face, you won't be embarrassed! If you tease them enough, you will reveal your true face. We will all treat it as your followers. Isn't it fun?" Zeng Jia was overjoyed after hearing this and immediately said which direction the Cao's Mansion was in.

After they were ready, the three of them quietly left the inn, led their horses to a faraway place and then galloped. When they came outside the city, they tied their horses deep in the woods, and used their light skills to run into Jiujiang City quickly. Huang Fang remembered the direction where the Cao Mansion was mentioned by Zeng Jia, and then followed the way to Cao Mansion. After a while, they came outside Cao Mansion. Shen Zonglin suddenly woke up and said, "Cao Wei must have seen Zeng Jia missing, and they may think of him coming to find you." He pointed to Huang Fang and continued, "Cao Wei is the best among the eight famous arrests anyway, and we must not take it lightly. In the past two days, he has enough time to prepare to welcome us. What if there is an ambush in the mansion?" Guo Rong said, "Second Brother, you are still injured. Let me go in and inquire first. Let me wait and see for now. How?"

Shen Zonglin thought for a while and said, "Well, that's great. Junior sister, you enter the investigation from the east. Junior brother, you enter the investigation from the west. When you meet, you will fire two arrows at the same time, which means you are safe. If anyone ambushed first, fire the arrow immediately, and the other person will fire the arrow. In this way, the senior brother will know whether you are ambushed and where you are." As he said that, he handed them one arrow to each of them. After Guo Rong and Huang Fang took it, they immediately put it in their arms. This place is still south of Cao's mansion, one person goes east and the other person goes west, run away quickly.

Guo Rong came to the west and listened first. He saw that it was quiet inside. Then he gently climbed over the wall and entered. The sky cleared, and although there was no moonlight, he could still see clearly. He groped and walked along the way. He walked along the way and did not meet anyone. When he encountered a house, he checked it and found no one. After walking like this, he had already arrived at the atrium in half a cup of tea.

Suddenly, when he saw a figure shaking in front of him, he saw that figure had arrived in front of him. It turned out to be Huang Fang. The two of them calmed down with a soft "shhh" sound. Guo Rong and Huang Fang looked at each other, took out loud arrows, and nodded at each other. At the same time, they pulled the lead at the tail of the arrow. With a "swoosh", the two arrows dragged their tails like fire and climbed upwards towards the sky, and then "boom" sounded like flowers in the sky.

Under the fireworks, Guo Rong and Huang Fang suddenly appeared countless figures standing around. Then, a voice said, "Who are you? Let's sign up!" It turned out to be Cao Wei's voice, Huang Guo and the others were shocked. Then, fires lit up everywhere. The two looked up and saw countless constables standing around. In addition to Cao Wei, there were Qiao Liufang, Master of Xianhe Valley, Guo Xinyi, Qiu Haitao, and Ruan Xiaoyu.

Seeing this, Guo Rong smiled and said, "Captain Cao, why should you be so polite? Welcome us in such a big show. Hahaha!" Cao Wei heard his voice and said, "The killer is the killer. No matter how you disguise and put on makeup, Cao can tell it from your voice. However, Miss Huang walks differently from ordinary women. She looks like a man's mighty man, and you can tell it without listening to the sound." Huang Fang sighed, "The eight famous arresters are indeed well-known!" Cao Wei said, "Not only you see it now, but also the next move!" As he said, he clapped his palms three times, and then there were "wow" sounds. Guo Rong and Huang Fang looked up and saw that the roof was suddenly full of archers, each holding a bow, with arrows on the strings, facing themselves in the atrium. Cao Wei said, "Tonight, even if you have the ability to go to heaven and earth, you can't escape Cao's net! Hahaha!"

Seeing the formation in front of him, Guo Rong and Huang Fang understood in their hearts: hundreds of archers on the roof aimed at him. If they move a little, they might become hedgehogs in an instant! The two were shocked and stunned. Only surrendering was the only way to survive. Huang Fang said loudly: "Captain Cao, I want to keep us, but have you prepared good wine and good dishes?" Cao Wei said seriously: "There are no good wine and good dishes, and you can always prepare the sticks for serving!" Qiao Liufang said from the side: "Guo Rong, Huang Fang, why don't you drop your weapons and surrender!" Guo Rong threw down the Wuyou flute and looked around quietly. Seeing this, Huang Fang also threw down the snow sword and said: "Don't lose this girl's snow sword!"

Qiao Liufang waved his hand and immediately walked out of a constable, came to the atrium, picked up the weapons of the two from the ground, walked back, and handed them to Guo Xinyi. Then, Qiao Liufang threw out a rope and said, "Guo Rong, should you tie Huang Fang's hands first, or should Huang Fang tie your hands first?" Guo Rong hesitated for a while and said, "Senior sister, tie my hands up." Huang Fang leaned over to pick up the rope helplessly, Qiao Liufang continued, "Hand tied up behind the back." Guo Rong had to put his hands behind him, and Huang Fang stretched out the rope to tie his hands. Qiao Liufang said, "Tie it with force!" After Huang Fang tied it, Cao Wei laughed and said, "This is called binding the rope by yourself! Hahaha!" Qiao Liufang continued, "Guo Rong, come over." Guo Rong walked towards Qiao Liufang step by step.

Halfway through, Qiao Liufang said, "Okay, stop." Then, he waved his hand, and another constable took the rope to tie Huang Fang's backhand behind him. Then, he pulled Huang Fang to another corner facing Guo Rong. Guo Rong sighed, "Senior sister, I didn't expect our reputation to be so loud, which makes all the eight famous arresters today so afraid!" Huang Fang smiled and said, "Junior brother, this is called caution. Don't spread it to the world and insult their names!" Cao Wei said, "Trouble you cunning killers,

Any means are fine!" As he said that, two more constables came out to Guo Rong, looked at the ropes tied to him, and pulled them a few times, which seemed to be reliable enough. Cao Wei shouted: "Brothers, I have worked hard! It's just worth it! Move out the iron cage!" As soon as he finished speaking, eight big men walked out of the house with an iron cage. Seeing their gritted teeth and frowned, they knew that the weight was probably nearly two thousand kilograms. Then, they carried out an exact iron cage, and the eight big men were carrying it.

Place the iron cage at the atrium, with two spaces apart more than a meter away. Look carefully at the iron cage, which is four square bottoms, about five feet wide and eight feet high. It is surrounded by iron rods made of cold iron, which is as thick as a wrist. Each iron rod has only one fist width. But one side is vacant and there is no iron rod. Cao Wei slowly walked to the iron cage and said proudly: "This iron cage is specially designed for the four killers of Tianmen Mountain, but unfortunately only two are in use tonight. Guo Rong and Huang Fang, I saw clearly that this side was not surrounded. So what should I do? You will see with your own eyes how to seal it. Once sealed, it will accompany you for life. Hahaha!"

Two constables pushed Guo Rong into the iron cage, and then the two big men carried an iron door from the house, which could be placed on the vacant side and surrounded it. Cao Wei shouted, "Lock!" Everyone looked at them and saw eight big men walking out of the house where the iron cage was just now. Each of them was holding a big iron pliers, and the four of them were holding a burnt iron rod as thick as their wrists. The eight people came to the door of the iron cage, and the burnt iron rods were wrapped up and down two circles on both sides of the iron gate, and twisted the two ends three or four circles and wrapped them together. But they saw two big men in a group, clamping the iron rods with the iron pliers, gritting their teeth, and shouting loudly, which made Cao Wei laugh proudly. The other heads and constables also laughed.

Then, Guo Rong's iron cage door was sealed with red iron rods, two on top and three on the left and right. After sealing it tightly, Cao Wei said proudly: "Who can open such a cage in the world? Hahaha!" Huang Fang was also locked in an iron cage and sealed it exactly the same. After both of the iron cages were sealed, they were placed in the atrium. Cao Wei applauded three more times, and the archers and the constables immediately hid. Cao Wei said: "Originally, Cao wanted to kill you Tianmen Mountain killers with one knife, but if you only catch you two, you must treat you as bait. The next few days should be sunny, so enjoy the coolness before dawn! Hahaha!" As he said that, Cao Wei took everyone away. Only two iron cages were left in the atrium. Although the ropes on his hands had been untied, how could such a solid cage escape from the sky? Guo Rong and Huang Fang looked at each other, quietly, at a loss.

Quietly around, Guo Rong said, "Senior Sister, are you afraid?" Huang Fang said, "Not afraid! Junior Brother, are you afraid?" Guo Rong said, "Senior Sister, I'm not afraid either! Because you are with you!" Huang Fang said, "Don't worry, Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother will come to save us!" Guo Rong said, "I would rather them not come to save us. There are so many archers here, and they are still locked in such a cage." Huang Fang said, "The eldest brother and Second Senior Brother will not fall into their trap, but we are just fooled so easily without the experience of the world." Guo Rong said, "Senior Sister, it's almost dawn, the second Senior Brother should have gone back, right?" Huang Fang said, "Don't talk. The more they say, the more they know about us. Practice cross-legged." So, the two of them cross-legged on the ground or on the iron rod on the ground to start exercising their skills and breathing.

The scorching sun is in the sky, and the body is hot. The vicious sun will not weaken its power because you are suffering. On the contrary, you feel that this is never such a vicious sunshine. Guo Rong and Huang Fang are so hungry that they are thirsty, but they have been suppressing the impulse in their hearts and focusing on practicing.

Suddenly, a voice said, "Miss Huang, Miss Huang!" Huang Fang knew that it was Zeng Jia's voice, as if she woke up from a dream. Seeing that he had come to the cage, he looked at him as if he was crying and laughing. He heard him ask, "Miss Huang, why is this happening?" Huang Fang smiled faintly and said, "Third Master, why are you here?" Zeng Jia suppressed his crying and said, "When I woke up in the morning, I saw that you were not here. I asked everyone, I don't know where you went. After entering the city, I came to see my brother-in-law and realized that you were here. So, let's take a look at you."

Seeing that he was carrying a basket in his hand, there were two bowls of rice, four bowls of vegetables, and two large glasses of water. Huang Fang asked in surprise: "Where did these come from?" Zeng Jia said: "Brother-in-law and their big fish and meat make you starve and get dried here. How can you bear it? So, I'll bring you some food." As he said that, he put half of the things in the basket in her cage, and then half in Guo Rong's cage, saying, "Miss Huang, eat slowly, be careful not to swallow." He secretly blinked Huang Fang, and left while nagging his brother-in-law for mercy.

Huang Fang was so smart. While eating slowly, she recalled Zeng Jia's last words and blinking expression, thinking in her mind.
