Chapter 135 Riot III
"Huff, huff..." Wang Wenzhou panted heavily, wiggling his big buttocks as he ran ahead.
Zhang Jiao, sword in hand, followed closely behind Wang Wenzhou. "Clap clap!" Zhang Jiao would turn around from time to time and throw out her "hidden weapons".
Wang Wenzhou was exhausted. Luckily, he insisted on running every morning, otherwise he would have been caught by the men in black and died on the street long ago.
The attack by the men in black took place on the "main road" in Hanshan County in front of the No Return Building. Wang Wenzhou and Zhang Jiao have now fled the main road, but more than a dozen men in black are still in hot pursuit.
"Murder! Help!" Zhang Jiao had run out of hidden weapons. When she turned around, she saw several men in black standing right in front of her. She quickly shouted, hoping that the nearby residents would come out to help.
To her surprise, her shouting only made things worse. One family, who was about to open their door to check on things, slammed their door shut with a loud bang when they heard Zhang Jiao's shout.
"Bang! Bang!" Zhang Jiao pounded on the door and said, "Big brother! Please open the door, help me!"
The people inside seemed to have vanished; there wasn't a sound.
"Run!" Wang Wenzhou grabbed Zhang Jiao and said as they ran, "If you shout 'murder,' who will dare to open the door? Shout with me, 'Come quick! The wife is beating up the mistress!'"
"Sigh!" Zhang Jiao smiled bitterly. This fatso really has no sense of decency. At a life-or-death moment, he's still joking.
"The wife is beating up the mistress! Oh no, she's starting to rip off the mistress's clothes!" Wang Wen shouted as he ran around.
Zhang Jiao thought Wang Wenzhou was joking, but to her surprise, a family actually opened their door.
"Lord Wang, is that you?" Jiang Peiya said in surprise.
Jiang Peiya looked up and saw a dozen men in black with knives chasing after them not far away. He quickly said, "Lord Wang, come inside quickly!"
Wang Wenzhou and Zhang Jiao entered the room, and Jiang Peiya quickly closed the door.
Wang Wenzhou was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly noticed that Jiang Peiya was dressed in mourning clothes, and the child who played his son at his wedding was also dressed in mourning clothes, kneeling in front of a coffin.
"Bang! Bang! Bang! Open the door! We only want to kill the corrupt official Wang Wenzhou!" The man in black was banging on the door from the outside.
"Quick! Push the coffin over here to block the door!" Jiang Peiya said.
"Yes!" Wang Wenzhou nodded, and the three of them pushed the coffin to block the doorway.
"Thud thud..." The man in black slashed at the door with his knife. The door was only a single layer of wooden planks and was about to be smashed to pieces.
Jiang Peiya clasped his hands and said, "I will forever remember Lord Wang's kindness in saving my life. I entrust my son to you; please leave quickly!"
After Jiang Peiya finished speaking, she picked up the child and threw him to Wang Wenzhou. Then she turned around and ran over to brace the coffin.
"You?" Wang Wenzhou was somewhat surprised. Sacrifice is something not everyone can do. Those who sacrifice their lives for any purpose deserve respect. Wang Wenzhou had never imagined that someone would willingly sacrifice themselves for him, especially someone he had only met once.
"Lord Wang! Please leave quickly! My wife has passed away. If it weren't for my children, I would have followed her long ago. Lord Wang is devoted to the people, and I am willing to die for you!" Jiang Peiya said solemnly.
"Thud, thud..." Half of the door panel had been chopped into pieces, and it looked like the men in black were about to break in.
"Brother Jiang, don't worry, from now on he'll be my own son!" Wang Wenzhou, holding the child, reached out and pulled Zhang Jiao, saying, "Let's go!"
"Bang!" Zhang Jiao kicked open the back window, and the three of them escaped.
"We will share the same bed in life and the same grave in death! My wife, wait for your husband on your way to the Yellow Springs, your husband will come to find you soon!" Jiang Peiya hugged the coffin tightly, blocking the door.
"Dad!" the child cried incessantly in Wang Wenzhou's arms.
Wang Wenzhou put him on the ground, slapped him twice, and shouted angrily, "Son! From now on, I'm your father! Understand?"
"You're not my dad!" The child cried, tears streaming down his face.
"Slap! Slap!" Wang Wenzhou slapped her twice more, shouting, "Son, if you cry again, the three of us—your father, me, and your mother, and you—are all dead!" Wang Wenzhou pointed at Zhang Jiao and said, "We're all dead!"
Jiang Peiya's son is 6 years old this year. He is already sensible and occasionally sobs, but no longer cries out loud.
"Do you know how to get to the county government office?" Wang Wenzhou asked.
"Yes!" the child nodded.
“Very well, go to the county government office now. When you see the yamen runners, shout that you are my son, Wang Wenzhou. Tell them to bring men to quell the unrest immediately. Your mother and I will draw the assassins away.” Wang Wenzhou still had some conscience; Jiang Peiya had sacrificed himself to save him, and he didn't want to harm Jiang Peiya's son. The men in black were after him, not the child.
"Hurry! Bring the constables to avenge your father! No! From now on, I will be your father!" Wang Wenzhou wiped the tears from the child's face.
The child nodded and ran towards the county government office.
"Jiaojiao, let's go!" Wang Wenzhou grabbed Zhang Jiao and turned to run.
A moment later, several men in black jumped out of the window.
Lin Hu pointed at Wang Wenzhou's retreating figure, waved his hand, and shouted, "Follow me! Quick, draw your bows and shoot their legs!"
Lin Feigang sent Lin Hu with the intention of having him lead men to surround the Tower of No Return, thus drawing his subordinates to the rescue. This way, after the prison break, Lin Feigang and his men could easily escape without anyone pursuing them.
The plan was excellent, but Lin Hu let Wang Wenzhou escape. This is a real problem. Wang Wenzhou's men don't know his whereabouts and will definitely close the city gates and conduct a massive search. Even if Lin Feigang successfully breaks into the prison, he won't be able to escape the city.
Lin Hu then wanted to capture Wang Wenzhou alive. With Wang Wenzhou in his hands, even if the four gates were tightly closed, Wang Wenzhou's subordinates would have to obediently let them out of the city.
Lin Hu hadn't ordered his men to use arrows, fearing that Wang Wenzhou might be killed. Now that Wang Wenzhou had run far away, he had no choice but to order his men to fire.
At Lin Hu's command, several men in black drew their bows and nocked arrows.
"Swish, swish, swish..." Several arrows flew from the bowstring.
Upon turning around, Zhang Jiao quickly used her sword to deflect the incoming arrow.
"Thud thud thud..." Several arrows fell in response.
"Ah!" Wang Wenzhou cried out miserably.
Zhang Jiao tilted her head and saw that an arrow had struck Wang Wenzhou in the thigh.
"Run!" Wang Wenzhou put his hand on Zhang Jiao's shoulder and limped away for his life.
"Haha! Wang Wenzhou is injured! Hurry and chase after him!" Lin Hu said with a loud laugh.
Wang Wenzhou was given a "slow down" buff, which slowed down the speed at which the two escaped.
Zhang Jiao turned around and saw the man in black getting closer and closer. She frowned, bent down, and said, "Get on, I'll carry you!"
"Hmm..." Although Wang Wenzhou was shameless, he was also a chauvinist. When fleeing for his life, he could shamelessly trick others into clearing the way and becoming "cannon fodder," but he couldn't bring himself to ask a girl to carry him away.
"Hurry up! Do you want to die?!" Zhang Jiao snapped angrily.
"Fine! I'd rather die than not, anyway, I've always been shameless!" Wang Wenzhou climbed onto Zhang Jiao's back.
As soon as Zhang Jiao stood up, she felt that the fat man on her back was too heavy! Indeed, although Wang Wenzhou had been trying to lose weight, he still weighed 240 or 250 pounds. Fortunately, Zhang Jiao had practiced martial arts since childhood and had some strength; otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to carry Wang Wenzhou to safety, let alone stand up.
