Chapter Fifty-Three: Escape

  Su Tang hastily pushed Hong Fu Ren onto the stone bench, his anxious appearance causing Hong Fu Ren to burst into giggles. Meanwhile, from an angle where Su Tang couldn't see, Hong Fu Ren discreetly made a hand gesture.

  Several warriors hiding around them all turned around and walked away, they were already used to this kind of thing.

  "Little rascal, slow down, slow down... be gentle, don't be so rough..." Red Madam said in a sweet voice, her hand reaching under Su Tang: "Hehe... what a big capital you have."

  At this moment, the red lady was lying on her back on the stone bench, with her legs wrapped around Su Tang's waist, while Su Tang pressed tightly against the red lady, his mouth wildly kissing her cheek and red lips, his hands grasping and kneading the towering peaks on her chest.

  "Ah......" The Red Lady seemed to feel very comfortable, emitting a soft moan.

  Su Tang's lips touched the red woman's earlobe again, and then his movements suddenly stopped. A pair of eyes emitting a cold aura observed around, and the red woman's guards had all left.

  "Little rascal, come on..." The red madam's legs, which were sandwiched between Su Tang's waist, exerted even more force, urging Su Tang on.

  Su Tang's left hand suddenly covered the red woman's mouth, and his right hand reached down, pulling out a dagger from his boot. With a swift motion, he stabbed it into the red woman's ribs.

  The Red Lady's body suddenly stiffened, her two legs kicked out a few times with force, and her hands tore at Su Tang's back desperately.

  Su Tang stuck to Hong Fu Ren's ear and whispered: "Long Qi asked me to say hello."

  For some reason, upon hearing this sentence, the Red Lady paused for a moment, gave up her struggle, and a smile appeared in her eyes, along with a sense of relief.

  Su Tang felt a hint of doubt in his heart, he said this sentence to make Hong Fu understand why he assassinated, and it was also the inevitable mentality of all those who sought revenge, but the expression revealed by Hong Fu did not seem like that of a dying person.

  Su Tang's left hand relaxed slightly, and he asked inexplicably, "Do you have anything to say?" If Hong Fu had any unusual movements, he could immediately cover his hand tightly without letting the guards outside notice.

  "You want revenge... cough, cough... I also want revenge..." The Red Lady said in a low, mosquito-like voice, her breath already short: "What a pity... I've been searching for him all along but to no avail..."

  "Who did you say?" Su Tang didn't understand.

  "That person who framed me... made me suffer for over 20 years... made my life worse than death... haha..." Madame Hong's eyes became somewhat unfocused: "That person who deceived Ah Qi... made Ah Qi lose all hope, abandon everything... and leave home to run away..."

  "What?!" Su Tang was completely stunned: "The Dragon Flag wasn't killed by you?!"

  "Of course... it's me, because he... was supposed to die anyway... If only he had believed me and gone with me to investigate, this wouldn't have happened... I've been wanting to die for a long time... afraid of the pain, afraid of being pitied... thanks to you..." Madame Hong's body gradually relaxed, finally exhaling a long sigh: "This tedious life..."

  Su Tang suddenly sat up straight, what did Hong Fu Ren's last words mean? However, there was no time to think about it now, the priority was to escape.

  In fact, assassinating the careless and unguarded Red Lady is not difficult, what's difficult is getting rid of those guards and escaping with one's life.

  Su Tang walked slowly outwards, passing through the corner gate and continuing along the flower-lined path.

  Several guards stood outside the corner gate and saw Su Tang's figure, they were somewhat surprised.

  "Is it over so soon?"

  "This kid is actually a silver gun wax head, inexperienced."

  "Heh heh...... I reckon the lady is going to jump up and scold someone."

  "Shall we wait for a while before going in?"

  "You don't know your wife's temper? Now if you go in and let her scold for a few sentences, it'll be fine. If you don't let her vent her anger, later on she'll scold even more fiercely, and who knows what else..."

  "Alright alright, let's go in."

  Su Tang heard the voices behind him, and he actually hoped that those guards would wait a little longer, but things didn't go as he wished. Moreover, he could only walk forward slowly and calmly, with Xia's family guards behind him, and in front of him were people from Jin Zhongguan and warriors from the Cheng family. As long as he showed any signs of panic or hastened his footsteps, it would inevitably arouse other people's suspicion.

  This flower-lined path is only over a hundred meters long, and it usually takes just the blink of an eye to walk through it, but at this moment it has become exceptionally long.

  Fortunately, Su Tang's self-control was very strong, and although he was extremely anxious inside, his face remained calm.

  Bang... The corner door was suddenly knocked open, followed by a loud roar: "Stop that little thief, he hurt the lady, stop him!!"

  Upon hearing the angry roar, the crowd immediately dispersed. Was Red Lady assassinated? This would be a disaster for Changshan County and especially the Cheng family. As the saying goes, "when the city gate catches fire, the fish in the moat will also suffer." Who knows whether the furious Xia family won't blame them?!

  "Stop him!! Quick, quick......"

  "Archer on the wall, don't let him escape!"

  It has been discovered that continuing to pretend is meaningless. Su Tang's figure suddenly accelerated, and he quickly rushed forward along the flower path.

  On the wall heads on both sides of the main gate of Jin Zhong Guan, more than 20 archers appeared, all opening their long bows and aiming at Su Tang's side. There were about seven or eight warriors guarding the main gate, while others waved their weapons and surrounded Su Tang from this side.

  Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…… The archers simultaneously shot out arrows. Fortunately, they were all from the Cheng family, with unified commands and high accuracy, and the distance was over 60 meters away. Su Tang, fully focused, could react in time. If it were a one-on-one shooting match, it would definitely give Su Tang a headache.

  Su Tang fell to the ground and rolled into a flower cluster. The arrow shot was empty, and the unevenly inserted arrows were stuck on the path.

  "Don't shoot, catch him alive! Catch him alive!!" The guards who were chasing from behind let out a cold sweat and shouted loudly. If they could catch the murderer alive, it would be able to shift some of the attention away. Lady Hong was dead, and if the murderer was also dead, then who would bear the brunt of the family's anger?!

  "Don't shoot the arrow!" The warriors of the Cheng family were suddenly awakened, anyway, the murderer would not be able to escape. With pursuers behind and interceptors in front, Nan Gong Town was already a bird with its wings clipped.

  Su Tang changed direction and rushed towards the people of Jin Zhongguan, with a flick of his wrist, he shot out several cold lights, shooting at the people of Jin Zhongguan.

  Fei Dao was the most familiar to Su Tang, with a shocking power. After the last encounter, he specially asked Tong Fei to help him forge more than 20 small knives, which are now all being used.
