Chapter 85 Breakthrough
South Hall, Wenshu Pavilion.
"Dong dong dong——"
"Open the door!"
The rapid knock on the door woke up everyone in the room. Zhen Jiu sat up suddenly and told Ku Xuan: "Go and have a look."
Kuxuan put on his coat, opened the door and came to the yard.
"Open the door quickly. If you don't open the door, we won't be polite."
The knocking on the door became more and more urgent, and the people outside couldn't wait any longer.
Kuxuan hurriedly shouted loudly: "It's coming, it's coming."
He quickly ran to the door, removed the bolt, and opened the courtyard door. When he saw that in addition to the two guards guarding the courtyard, there were four or five guards outside the door, he asked, "What happened?"
The leading guard did not answer his question, but ordered him impatiently: "Call Zhen Jiu out."
"This..." Kuxuan looked troubled: "My master is sleeping. If you have anything to say, tell me and I will tell my master."
Upon hearing this, the leading guard rushed straight into the courtyard and shouted: "Zhen Jiulang, come out."
"Hey, don't scream, don't scare my master..."
Ku Xuan chased after him to stop the leading guard, but was roughly pushed away by the leading guard and fell to the ground.
Seeing this formation, Ku Xuan couldn't help but feel guilty. Could it be that Lieutenant Yun Du discovered that Jiulang had lied?
At this time, Zhen Jiu groped out of the room with a gloomy face: "What do you want from me?"
Unexpectedly, when the leading guard saw him, he turned around and left.
But in the blink of an eye, the leading guard left with his people.
Hearing the footsteps disappearing, Zhen Jiu couldn't help but ask: "What's going on?"
"They left." Kuxuan got up and replied.
Seeing Zhen Jiu's face full of doubts, Ku Xuan walked to the door and asked the guards outside: "Two of you, I would like to ask, do you know what those people were here for just now?"
The two guards looked at each other, and then the guard on the left said: "I heard that Cui Hengyue escaped from Guanyin Pavilion, and General Mu has led people to hunt him down.
"Captain Yun Du has given orders to check the entire South Palace to see if anyone else has escaped from the South Palace."
Ku Xuan grasped the key to his words: "You mean Cui Hengyue has escaped from the South Palace?"
The guard on the left paused: "...Yes."
"Thank you!"
Kuxuan thanked him, closed the courtyard door, and came to Zhen Jiu: "Jiulang, they said that Cui Hengyue escaped from Guanyin Pavilion and has now left the South Hall.
"However, General Mu has already led his men to pursue him. Those men were just ordered to check if anyone else had escaped."
For some reason, after listening to Ku Xuan's words, Zhen Jiu felt a trace of joy deep in her heart.
However, after hearing Ku Xuan say, "Fortunately Cui Hengyue ran away, otherwise she would have died in vain," Zhen Jiu immediately said with a straight face, "If she died, she would have brought it upon herself."
...
After Li Bi'er was suddenly woken up by the guard, she realized that something big had happened in the South Palace. She quickly grabbed the guard and asked, "What happened?"
"Cui Hengyue ran away."
The guard shook off Li Bi'er's hand, said these words and left.
Li Bier was stunned for a moment, then closed the door, ran to the bed angrily, and punched the quilt with her fist: "Damn it, I let her run away, Mu Yun, this loser..."
When Su Biwen learned that Cui Hengyue had run away, he was very angry and scolded Mu Yun.
The person who went to Nandi Cave to check if Xie Yu was still there was Yun Chen. He unlocked the door from the outside and pushed the door directly in.
As soon as he entered the door, he met Xie Yu's sinister eyes. Yun Chen jumped back in fright: "Hoo——"
"If you don't sleep, why are you staring?"
Xie Yu said quietly: "It's so noisy outside, how can I sleep?"
Yun Chen said "Oh" and turned around to leave.
Just as he raised his foot to step out of the threshold, Yun Chen retracted his foot again, turned around and said to Xie Yu: "Cui Hengyue ran away. Let me see if there are any accomplices of hers."
Xie Yu stood up in confusion: "Didn't that kid Mu Yun chase him?"
"The general went to give chase, but by now Cui Hengyue has probably left the temple and gone down the mountain."
When he said this, a trace of ridicule flashed in Yun Chen's eyes.
Xie Yu didn't miss his look and snorted coldly: "You lied, Cui Hengyue must not have left the South Hall yet."
Yun Chen's expression froze, and then he said with a straight face: "Even if Cui Hengyue dies, the King of Chu will not see you."
After saying that, Yun Chen no longer struggled with Xie Yu, and after crossing the threshold, he closed the door and locked it.
He told the guards: "Be careful, no one is allowed to come near this place without the general and my order."
...
Yun Lin quickly caught up with Mu Yun: "General."
Mu Yun turned around and glanced, then immediately ordered: "There is no need to search the temple, just go to the mountain gate to block people. If you are good at qinggong, go to the mountain gate first and guard the mountain gate."
Yun Lin said yes, crossed over Mu Yun, climbed over the railing, and jumped down.
At this time, Cui Hengyue was surrounded.
Ahead were the monks who came after hearing the news. At a glance, there were no less than twenty people.
Behind him was Miaokong, who was chasing after him, and there were many monks.
On the left is a cliff hundreds of feet tall, and on the right is the guest room.
Cui Hengyue quickly weighed it in her mind, then climbed over the railing on the left, intending to jump off the cliff.
A long stick came and pushed Cui Hengyue's body back to the corridor.
Cui Hengyue quickly got up from the ground. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the long stick being swung at him again, and he immediately raised his spear to resist.
"hateful!"
Cui Hengyue roared loudly and struck out quickly and hatefully.
Miaokong was caught off guard and was cut open by Cui Hengyue again, causing his body to fly out.
But at this time, the monks from the front had arrived, and Cui Hengyue had to brace up to deal with this group of monks and break through to the mountain gate.
"what sound?"
The main room of the guest house somewhere suddenly lit up.
Guard Songmu came to the bed and said respectfully: "Prince, there seems to be someone fighting outside."
Chen Linshen said "Oh", yawned, and lazily ordered: "Go and have a look."
After giving instructions, he lay down and continued to sleep.
Songmu then quietly left the room, walked out of the yard, and followed the sound of fighting.
"call out--"
A short arrow came quickly.
Cui Hengyue hurriedly escaped, but the monk picked her face off.
At this time, Mingjue came over and happened to see this scene. He was shocked: "Cui Hengyue? Aren't you locked up and will be executed tomorrow?
"Why are you here?"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Mingjue reacted: "Did you escape from the South Hall?"
This incident shocked Mingjue even more. For fifteen years, no one could escape from the heavily guarded South Hall, except Cui Hengyue.
Cui Hengyue escaped from the South Hall for the second time, and now he is not far from the mountain gate.
Mingjue realized the seriousness of the matter and immediately took the long stick in Miao Kong's hand and rushed towards Cui Hengyue.
"Cui Hengyue, hurry up and capture him, otherwise you will be dead when General Mu arrives."
"Ah!"
Cui Hengyue sneered coldly: "It's not certain who will live and who will die."
Seeing her stubbornness, Mingjue loudly ordered the monk: "Everyone, listen to the order, catch her quickly and hand her over to General Mu."
Upon hearing the order, the monks attacked in groups.
Cui Hengyue's heart sank, and she grabbed the spear tightly and started swinging it.
Seeing this, Song Mu quickly ran back to the yard and reported to Chen Linshen: "Prince, there is a young lady who escaped from the south hall. Mingjue... No, Lin Kuo is taking the martial arts from Yunxuan Temple.
Monks arrest her."
Chen Linshen opened his eyes, lifted the quilt and got out of bed: "Lin Kuo? Isn't that the military doctor under King Chu?"
"Yes, that's him." Songmu affirmed.
Hearing this, Chen Linshen's eyes sparkled and he said excitedly: "The people who ran out from the South Palace are still the people that King Chu wants to catch. We must not let King Chu's people catch them.
