Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

"who!!"

A loud shout was heard, and six guards carrying oil lamps met Shen Lin and his four companions head-on at the corner of the corridor.

Five of the guards were holding water and fire sticks, and the last one was holding a gong.

When he saw Shen Lin and the others, the security guard holding the gong immediately hit the gong with a stick.

Bang! !

Ta da da, da da da!

Just as the gong was struck, Shen Lin and the other three opened fire.

At such a close distance, Shen Lin and his men didn't waste any of their six bullets, and the guard was killed on the spot.

The sound of several gunshots and gongs seemed to be sending some kind of signal.

Next, gunshots were heard from various places in Lu Mansion from time to time, which completely alarmed everyone in the mansion.

Even Lu Yi, who was sleeping with his concubine in his arms, was suddenly awakened from the bed.

"what happens?"

After pushing the confused concubine away, Lu Yi put on his clothes and shouted outside the door.

Then the servant's reply was heard.

"Master, the night watch gong has been rung. There must be a thief in the house. Master, please do not come out."

The servant outside the door was still talking when Lu Yi had already opened the door with his clothes on.

"Immediately send someone to the yamen to find the prefect, and also notify the city defense patrol to come over."

"Yes!"

The servant turned around and was about to do his work, but at this moment, another servant ran into Lu Yi's yard.

"Master, it's bad. A lot of thieves have entered our house. We can't get out. All the doors are blocked by thieves."

"Just now, Liuzi was about to go out to find the patrol officers, but as he approached the back door, he heard a noise and Liuzi was dead!"

Oh no! This is coming for me!

After hearing what the servant said, Lu Yi's eyes narrowed and he immediately realized that the matter was not simple.

This is Suzhou City.

Even those bandits would only choose some remote villages or small towns to attack.

Anyone who dares to mess around in a big city like Suzhou is clearly targeting me.

Thinking of this, Lu Yi quickly turned his head to look at the servant who had just come in.

"Where's the Third Master? Is he at home?"

"Master, I came here in a hurry to find you, but no, I didn't see the Third Master."

"Then hurry up and go find it!! When you find it, tell the third brother to come meet me in the study! Also, notify all the guards to guard my yard!"

Hearing Lu Yi's order, the two servants did not dare to stay and turned around and ran out of the courtyard.

After the two left, Lu Yi ran towards the study without saying a word.

As I arrived at the door of the study and was about to open it, I saw Lu Gu running towards me.

"Brother, what happened? There was a burglary at home. Why did you run to the study and call me over?"

"Don't talk, just follow me in!"

Hearing Lu Gu's voice, Lu Yi grabbed his clothes without saying a word and dragged him into the study.

After closing the door, Lu Yi asked Lu Gu to guard the door, and then came to the secret passage alone.

However, when he wanted to open the secret passage, he found that the door seemed to be blocked.

No matter how he turned the mechanism, the secret door did not move.

Just when Lu Yi was puzzled, he found a note stuck on the secret door.

"Wait for help! Be careful with your words! Yangzhou City, Songbai Tower's Young Master Lu Yao, take care of yourself!"

When he saw the contents of the note, Lu Yi's whole body trembled violently and his face turned extremely pale.

"Brother, what are you looking at? Let's go! The thieves will be here soon."

Hearing Lu Gu's voice behind him, Lu Yi stuffed the note into his mouth without saying a word.

I had to force myself to swallow it without even having time to chew.

When Lu Gu saw this scene, he was stunned on the spot.

He clearly saw that his elder brother was holding a piece of paper, but he couldn't see what was written on the paper.

But what really puzzled him was that his elder brother actually swallowed the paper.

This is obviously a defense against me, against myself as his brother!
