The Record of Righteousness

On the other side, Leng Tiancun looked back and saw the pursuers getting closer.

At this time, he was gritting his teeth and shuttling back and forth on the roofs of various houses.

He had suffered a loss from the three bandits of the Golden Sword before, and he had been practicing the light kung fu of flying over eaves and walking on walls for several months. Finally, he had some progress and was just a little proud.

Even though he had practiced hard for several months, he couldn't even get rid of several warriors under Wu Tianyi who were guarding the yard.

His pride was instantly depressed.

Unexpectedly, there were several extraordinary martial artists under Wu Tianyi.

Wan Qing had told him before that they would meet in the poplar forest in the north of Beijing after the matter was completed.

Wan Qing had scouted there many times, and there were many forests and valleys, and there was no one except for a few people who occasionally went hunting.

"Beijing Suburbs North! He can only take action."

Thinking of this, Leng Tiancun turned around and ran north, and the tiles of the houses under his feet rustled.

Fortunately, it was late at night, and there was no one on the roads.

It was precisely because there were no people that Han Laowu and his men could hold on to Leng Tiancun tightly, as if they would not give up until they caught him.

Unknowingly, Leng Tiancun had already flashed to a wild forest outside the capital.

Looking at the deep and dark dense forest, several people could not help but shudder.

But they watched the thief's figure gradually disappear in the dense forest.

"Fifth brother, this thief has gone deep into the dense forest. Should we continue to chase him? If we go in easily, we may be ambushed by him."

A warrior next to Han Laowu comforted.

"Yes, the thief must have support. He will be more comfortable in this broken forest. If we go in rashly, we may..."

After all, they are just working for Eunuch Wu, and the salary of more than ten taels a month is not worth their lives.

After hearing this, Han Laowu frowned and was a little shaken, but he was unwilling to let the thief run away.

After thinking about it, he felt that his life was more important. If he went back empty-handed, he would at most be scolded by Eunuch Wu.

"In that case, we have no choice but to go back."

"When you report to Eunuch Wu, you must all speak with one voice and say that the thief is very good at martial arts and disappeared after running away. If you do this, Eunuch Wu will naturally not embarrass us."

Han Laowu's eyes wandered over the faces of these colleagues, and he gave a serious explanation.

Seeing Han Laowu compromise, his men were overjoyed. They understood what Han Laowu meant and agreed:

"Brother Wu, don't worry. We are all in the same group. No matter what happens, we will never sell ourselves out. Hehe."

"Yes, yes. This is not the first time we have done this."

"The thief is good at martial arts, otherwise we would not have chased him for so long."

Hearing what his men said, Han Laowu felt relieved and immediately led his men back home.

Leng Tiancun, who was hiding in the deep forest, watched the movement of the pedestrian on the trunk of a century-old tree. He was relieved when he saw him turn around and leave.

A gust of cold wind blew behind him, and a laugh came from behind:

"You have practiced Qinggong for several months, but you can't even get rid of these three-legged cats?"

"Ah!?"

Leng Tiancun was frightened by this sudden remark and almost fell from the tree.

In a hurry, he hugged the tree trunk and turned back suddenly to see who was coming.

He immediately covered his chest with lingering fear, and a bitter smile was forced on his face:

"Eunuch, you scared me to death, why is there no movement at all."

Wan Qing crouched on the thick tree trunk, slapped the guy next to him, and said unhappily:

"We are not ghosts, what are you afraid of? Besides, with our martial arts, it would be strange if there was any movement in the light work!"

"Eunuch, what you said makes sense! Hehe."

Leng Tiancun rubbed his head with a grin, afraid that he would mention his light work again, and quickly changed the subject, slightly expectantly:

"Eunuch, did you get that thing?"

"I got it, but why did those people who chased you go back home? They didn't even want the cooked duck."

Wan Qing asked in confusion.

"I don't know, maybe he's scared, or he's tired of running?"

Leng Tiancun didn't dare to take Wan Qing's sarcasm seriously, and could only pretend that he didn't understand what he meant.

"If they chase us in, let's practice with them."

Wan Qing narrowed his eyes and said this with murderous intent.

Those martial artists with extraordinary martial arts skills were like pigs and dogs waiting to be slaughtered.

After that, he patted Leng Tiancun's shoulder and praised him:

"Hehe, since you have already got it, you can work for the East Factory in a few days. I will never forget your contribution, and promotion and wealth are just around the corner!"

"Thank you, eunuch!"

Leng Tiancun was puzzled as to why eunuch Wan jumped to the East Factory again, but he didn't dare to ask more. He was not interested in the big pie in front of him, but he still had expectations.

"I have one more thing to ask. The antidote you gave me before is almost gone. Can you give me some more?"

"Of course, but I don't have it with me today. You can come to me tomorrow."

Wan Qing readily agreed. After all, the antidote is the only way to maintain contact with his subordinates.

"Yes." Leng Tiancun bowed his head and said yes repeatedly.

When he looked up again, the figure beside him disappeared, obviously not wanting to talk to him anymore.

On the tree branch, only Leng Tiancun, who looked stunned, was left.

After a moment of stunned, the figure also wandered out of the dense forest and disappeared without a trace.

. . .

As for Wan Qing, he did not return to the inn where he had rested for many days, but ran deeper into the dense forest.
