Before the house is confiscated, the enemy's warehouse is emptied and exiled

It turned out that in that short and tense period of time just now, they had already launched a rough search around Wangyue Tower.

After some effort, they found a few companions and some stray prisoners, but they still didn't see Gui Ge, Ma Si and others.

Fearing that birds and beasts would attack again, Deputy Captain Li Tian immediately decided to take his team away from this bloody place first and then come back to search.

So, once the team landed, they would have to risk going back to search. However, the remaining number of officials was small, which made Li Tian a little troubled.

As luck would have it, at this moment, the Fifth Prince Xiao Heng's team also came towards them as if they had made an appointment.

When Li Tian saw this scene, a glimmer of hope surged in his heart.

He thought for a moment, then quickly stepped forward, bowed to Xiao Heng, and said earnestly:

"Your Majesty, I have a favor to ask of you!"

Seeing that the person coming was Li Tian, ​​Xiao Heng did not show any indifference.

It was because he had heard Shen Qingge mention that Li Tian was the only one with some conscience among the officials. Although he had done some bad things, he was not so bad that he was beyond redemption and still had some redeeming qualities.

So, Xiao Heng said calmly: "What's the matter?"

Li Tian was very happy to see that the prince was quite kind to him and did not refuse immediately. He quickly explained his purpose:

"The 'melee' at Wanghu Tower just now separated us from our brothers, and we couldn't even find the leader, Lord Wang.

We are worried about accidents, so we plan to go back and look for it!

However, we are short-staffed, and if we leave, we are afraid that the prisoners will be left unattended. Therefore, Your Highness, please ask the guards around you to temporarily help look after them. What do you think?"

After Li Tian finished speaking in one breath, he kept rubbing his hands and stared nervously at the prince in front of him, waiting for his reply.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Xiao Heng actually nodded and agreed to his request.

Xiao Heng then turned to look at Yun Yi beside him and ordered in a deep voice, "Yun Yi, take a few dozen guards with you and surround the exile group tightly. Make sure these prisoners are safe and don't let anything go wrong."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Li Tian, ​​admonishing him:

"Today, I will make an exception and help you guard this place. However, you must act quickly and return quickly. Don't delay too long to avoid any more trouble."

Li Tian, ​​having received the prince's permission, was overwhelmed with emotion. After thanking him profusely, he quickly turned to greet Niu Ergou and his companions. They hurriedly set off again towards Wanghu Tower...

When they reached the street of Wanghu Tower, most of the people who had gathered there had already dispersed, leaving only a few wounded soldiers who had survived the disaster to clean up the mess under the command of a man who looked like an officer.

Li Tian immediately trotted over, and after he had stabilized himself, he first clasped his hands together and revealed his identity:

"I am an officer in charge of escorting fugitives. During the attack just now, some of our brothers unfortunately became separated from the main force.

So I brought my men here to search for him. I hope you, sir, can show some mercy and give us some convenience!"

After hearing what he said, the officer just nodded dully, indicating that Li Tian and others could search on their own.

Li Tian thought that these people were probably really scared and seemed a little stupid. It would take them a while to recover. In order not to waste time, he ordered his men to disperse and search carefully everywhere.

After receiving the order, the officials took action, spread out around Li Tian and began to search seriously.

After about an incense stick of time, a terrified cry suddenly came from not far away: "Boss! Come over here and take a look!"

Hearing this, Li Tian's heart trembled violently, and he hurriedly ran in the direction where the voice came from.

When he ran closer, he saw a body that had been torn into pieces. He took a closer look and instantly recognized that the horrific corpse was Ma Si's.

Seeing his former companion end up like this, although they were not close friends, Li Tian still sighed heavily twice, and then he felt uneasy. He thought that Brother Gui was probably in great danger.

As the search area continued to expand, they gradually discovered the incomplete bodies of some officials and the bodies of fugitives who were mistakenly killed.

The bodies of some of the officers were so badly damaged that they were almost unrecognizable and had to be identified by waist badges, otherwise their true identities would be impossible to confirm.

At this time, the originally clear sky was suddenly covered with dark clouds, and a drizzle of rain began to fall, washing away the blood on the ground. The smell of blood became even stronger and nauseating.

A wounded soldier looked at the pouring rain and cried out in despair, "Oh my God! This must be a punishment from heaven! Let's run for our lives! I don't want to die here like them!"

His voice was full of fear and helplessness, causing the other soldiers to look up at the sky.

Boom...

In an instant, thunder rumbled, and dense raindrops fell from the clouds like silver threads, as if every drop was heralding the anger of heaven.

The wounded soldiers were immediately frightened by the scene before them. They dropped the corpses and weapons in their hands and began to flee in all directions.

Seeing this chaotic scene, Li Tian's heart couldn't help but beat fast. Who wouldn't be afraid of divine retribution? Who doesn't have blood on their hands when they live on the edge of a knife?

So, he also began to think about escaping from this place of trouble.

At this moment, Niu Ergou also said, "Brother Tian, ​​I think Brother Gui is in great danger! Otherwise, let's leave quickly!"

The officials were speechless and looked embarrassed.

Although Li Tian actually thought so in his heart, as a small leader, how could he easily abandon his superior in front of his subordinates?

So, he raised his hand and gave Niu Ergou a loud slap in the face, and angrily scolded him:

"How dare you talk like that, kid? Don't you want to see your brother do well? But the prince is also pressing for help... How about this? Leave a mark of our team along the way. When your brother sees it, he'll naturally follow!"

"Okay, this method is very good. I will do it right away!"

Then, Li Tian and a few of his men hurried back in a panic. They were also afraid, and their pace became faster and faster, and finally they just ran...

When everyone left, the streets in the rain looked eerie and scary.

In a secret door in a corner of Wanghu Tower, two disheveled and unconscious people were lying.

One of them was struggling to open his eyes. This man was Wang Gui, the captain of the police. He had taken advantage of the chaos to pull someone away and hid in this small dark room.

The person he pulled away was none other than the county magistrate Zhang Youning!
