Chapter 66 Fall of the Capital

The biggest possibility for Li Ren to escape is to warn the palace. Lou Xun is not worried about this. All the entrances and exits of the imperial city are laid with his people. As long as Li Ren dares to appear, the sheep will enter the tiger's mouth, and Li Ren's contact with the Yulin army has also been cut off. It is obviously even more impossible to try to transfer troops.

Lou Xun's plan was not thoughtful, and then Li Jin's death and the failure to find the tiger talisman still annoyed him. Lou Xun expected that the tiger talisman was taken away by Li Ren, but he did not expect that Li Ren had not actually left Li's house. When Li Jin built the mansion at the beginning, he only received a lot of ill-seeable property in private for fear of being bombed. Impeachment, so the dark room was built under the rockery in the back garden of the Li Mansion in advance. The mechanism of the dark room was disguised by a stone on the rockery, but the real location of the dark room was under the lotus pond, which was led by the funnel-shaped corridor under the rockery. The whole design was to facilitate the storage of treasures, but the dark road to leave the Li Mansion was not built, so Li Ren hid in. After going, I can only wait for the opportunity for Lou to guard against relaxation, and then find a way to leave.

And Li Jin made a scene in front of the house, just to divert Lou Xun's sight, so that Lou Xun mistaken thought that Li Ren had escaped at this time. In fact, if Lou Xun thought about it carefully, Li's house surrounded his people on all sides. How could Li Ren escape? However, because of the chaos for a while, coupled with Mrs. Li's maid In the state of the body falling down, Lou Xun can only blame his subordinates. It must be the negligence of the arrangement in which direction.

Li Ren, who was in the dark room, did not know that his parents had died. Time was running out. At that time, Li Jin only had time to give the Hu Fu to Li Ren, and told Li Ren not to act recklessly under any circumstances. Now Lou Xun's power is not his own power to eradicate. The only way is to save himself and wait for the best time. At the same time, Li Jin He also told Li Ren that if the Li family is really gone, let him go away quickly, hide his name, and live an ordinary life. In that way, at least he can keep the first line of blood of the Li family.

Li Ren didn't have time to recall why his father's words were so like a farewell. Mrs. Li arrived with the maid. At the last time, Mrs. Li finally couldn't help crying, but she quickly wiped away her tears and asked the maid to lead Li Ren into the dark room. Li Jin knew very well that Lou Xun would be worried and would go to the study. Exploring the truth, Mrs. Li calmly said goodbye to her husband and asked Li Jin to do what he wanted to do. She would go to the study and wait for Lou Xun.

It's just that neither husband and wife expected that Lou Xun was taken around in the garden again. Bai Bai Bai took a big circle, which won more time for Li Jin. At the same time, it also made Lou Xun more convinced that Li Ren had escaped, because the period when Lou Xun failed to take care of it was really not short.

As soon as Mrs. Li's maid sent Li Ren into the tunnel, she was a little unable to do it. She could only say to Li Ren's back, "Forgive me that I can no longer serve the young master!" He closed the organ behind Li Ren. Li Ren wanted to stop it, but it was too late. The underground organ was in the dark room. If he didn't go down, he couldn't restart the secret door of the rockery.

After the maid reset the organ, she ran to the backyard with abdominal pain. Before she died, the only thing she could do was to create the illusion that Li Ren had escaped. At least, she could win time and opportunities for Li Ren's real escape.

In the bowl of soup on the table, Mrs. Li sprinkled powder in front of the three people. Mrs. Li took the lead in scooping a bowl for herself and drank it calmly. "You can also choose!" Mrs. Li said, "But I can't guarantee that Zhongxinhou will let you go!" So the little man and Mrs. Li's maid also scooped a full bowl and drank a clean one after another. They were born as Li's family and died as the ghosts of the Li family. In fact, there were not many regrets for them, because Li Jin and Mrs. Li were usually very good to them, not to mention that when they volunteered to stay, they had already expected this day.

So in addition to Li Ren, all the people in Li's family were corpse in the backyard. Lou Xun originally held the last glimmer of hope and asked his men to thoroughly investigate Li's house again, but in the middle of the night, it suddenly rained heavily. There was not much rain in this season, but I don't know why. It was not only stormy, but also lightning and thunder. Lou Xun was helpless. He had to ask his men to temporarily stop the search, leaving only a small part to guard Li's house, and the rest of the others withdrew.

Under the lotus pond, Li Ren found a letter left to him by his father in the dark room. The letter told him that if he could get out, he would go to Lang Dingyuan of Hu Benying. Only Lang Dingyuan, or the only person he could trust, made Li Ren completely confused, because Lang Dingyuan and the former prince Zhuo Luan were very well friends. This is a fact that everyone knows. Zhuo Luan's death is a stain that their Li family can't clean up. Will Lang Dingyuan lend a helping hand to the enemy at this critical time?

Li Ren thought about it over and over again, and couldn't decide whether to follow his father's advice. He simply suspected that his father was old and confused, or he was in a hurry to seek medical treatment. However, when he thought about it, his father seemed to have always respected Lang Dingyuan very much. After the death of the former prince Zhuo Luan, Li Jin wanted to resolve the kindness and resentment. He invited Lang Dingyuan several times. As a guest, Lang Dingyuan didn't give Li Jin face at all. The only time he visited, he scolded the guests at the wine table, and raised the table and smashed the bowls and brushed his sleeves. Li Ren was so angry that he drew his sword on the spot and threatened to teach Lang Dingyuan a lesson.

Of course, Li Ren failed to teach Lang Dingyuan a lesson. Instead, he was taught a lesson by his father. Li Jin warned him that there are many things in the world, which are not as simple as they seem. Although a loyal person like Lang Dingyuan is not good with him, he is more trustworthy and respected than all the guests on the seat, but it is a pity. Such a person is not used by Li, which is a pity.

"It's useless!" Even his father had made such a conclusion about Lang Dingyuan, but why did he suddenly change his attitude and ask him to go? Although compared with the two, Lang Dingyuan may be more disgusted with Lou Xun, but fifty steps are more than a hundred steps. In fact, it is not much better. Li Ren knows very well that if he makes this bet, he will bet on his own life.

Although the rain outside is heavy, in the dark room under the pond, it sounds like a drizzle microwave. If it hadn't been for the sound of thunder, Li Ren would never have expected his chance to escape. It came so soon. He carefully opened the mechanism and looked at it in the secret door for a long time. The dark Lifu Garden was accompanied by a torrential rain, only There was an accidental lightning flash, which instantly illuminated the place where it once relied on home.

Li Ren concluded that this is indeed the best opportunity for him to get out, and it is thanks to God. Although Li Ren also has some dung benevolent habits, after all, he is a martial artist, and his courage is at stake. Naturally, his courage has increased a hundred times more than usual. He gritted his teeth, and Li Ren rushed into the dark night in the rain. Of course, he did not forget to restore the organ. In the dark room, after all, it is the wealth accumulated by his father over the years. As long as he is not found, he may be able to use it one day when he revives his family?

Li Ren easily touched the side door in the dark, relying on his familiarity with Li's house. The small side door of Li's house used to be used for handymen to go in and out. During the day, Li Jin told Li Ren that Li's house had been surrounded by Lou Xun's minions, which naturally included the small side door. Therefore, Li Ren did not dare to be careless. He hid at the root of the wall and deliberately threw a few stones outside the wall. The sound of the stones falling to the ground was covered by the sound of rain, which looked dull and weak. But in addition, there was no other movement outside the wall. Li Ren was relieved, climbed up the high wall and jumped out of Li's house.

Li Ren ran wet in the heavy rain for a long time. It was not until he was sure that he had not been followed by others that he slowed down. There was a pergola on the street that he had not had time to collect. Li Ren quickly hid in and avoided it. In the late autumn night, he was drenched by the rainstorm. He didn't feel anything when he was busy running away. At this time, he stopped. When he came down, he was blown by the cold wind again, and Li Ren only trembling all over.

Looking around, Li Ren barely recognized his position. However, although there were many fox friends in the past, at this moment, he couldn't think of a place to go.

Why don't you go to which tavern for a night and stay up until dawn? Li Ren thought so. He touched his whole body and said something bad. It turned out that he was abducted by Lou Xun's men to a hut in the wilderness at night. He was not only blindfolded and tied his hands and feet, and all the objects on his body were searched by them. At that time, Li Ren did not know that the other party was looking for a tiger charm, but only thought he had met him. The strong thief who robbed the house asked them to take the money and let him go. How could he not say that it was okay? As soon as the other party said it, he simply took the silver and two silver bills he carried, including his jade pendants, jade plates and other things, all of which were clean and nothing left.

As soon as he returned to Li's house, he was sent to the tunnel dark room by his father. Li Ren didn't remember that he had nothing but a dirty robe. Otherwise, even if he took a golden toad in the dark room to pawn, he could always get a lot of silver. Li Ren was extremely sad. Li Fu couldn't go back. What should he do now?

The pergola leaking on all sides made Li Ren miserable. He had to step into the rain again and find another place to live. He couldn't live in a shop and had nothing to eat. This was a dilemma that Li Ren had never encountered in his life. He couldn't imagine how to hold on and where to go.

On this night, Li Rendong hid in Tibet. Finally, because of his lack of physical strength, he fell under a bridge cave and struggled to climb into the bridge cave. Li Ren was surprised to find that this was the best place to live, at least from the erosion of wind and rain. However, when he adapted to the darkness a little, he could see that he was not the only inhabitant in the bridge cave. .

Li Ren quickly understood that the four or five pairs of eyes staring at him were all from the people he usually disliked most, the begging for food and begging. He didn't expect that he would have a day to fall here. There was a trace of bitterness in Li Ren's heart. Probably his current appearance is no different from the beggars. Although several people in the cave are full He was hostile, but he didn't embarrass him.

Li Ren leaned against the mouth of the cave and curled up his wet body to preserve the residual heat of his body as much as possible. However, the wet and cold robe immediately turned the place where he sat into a puddle. Li Ren felt the water trace slowly expanding. He wanted to move to a place, but he had no strength to quarrel with others. He was afraid that the other party was just some unarmed beglings, so he really had no other choice but to endure.

Perhaps because he was too tired, sitting in a cold puddle, Li Ren still fell asleep. In his sleep, he was cold and hot, in a trance, and it seemed that someone came and went from him. Li Ren wanted to open his eyes and look, but his eyelids were as heavy as lead, not only The eyelids and head are so heavy that the shoulders can't bear it, and the whole body is sore and unbearable, sore to every bone, even in the bone marrow.

Then, it seemed that someone was shaking him hard. Li Ren was muddled around and barely opened a gap in his eyes. The harsh white light gave him a feeling of tears. It turned out that it was already bright outside, and what he saw was a strange and dirty face, "Are you sick?" Li Ren heard the man say.

"I'm not sick, leave me alone!" Li Ren opened his mouth, but there was no sound.
