774 Brother Jiu Fights the Ghost King (1)
Just as Qing Yan was wondering who the person was and why he was acting so sneakily, that person walked near the prison cart.
Qing Yan was shocked when he saw the other party’s face.
Ah Dou?! Didn’t this guy fall off the cliff? He-he didn’t die from the fall?
Ah Dou’s swollen face had already mostly disappeared. It only looked like a slight bruise. Qing Yan simply stared at him as if he had seen a ghost.
Not only Qing Yan, but even the old man, Yue Gou, and Ah Wei were stunned. The guard looked up and saw the figure on the ground. He turned around, but before he could even see Ah Dou’s shadow, he was knocked unconscious by Ah Dou’s hand.
Ah Dou caught him and silently placed him on the ground. He came to the prison cart and tore the cage apart with his bare hands.
Qing Yan said, “It’s useless. This is ten-thousand-year-old black iron. You can only open it with a key.”
Ah Dou returned to the unconscious guard’s side and squatted down to feel for the key, but he didn’t find anything.
“Who is it?” The other person turned back and saw that his companion had fainted, as well as a stranger who was searching for something on his companion. Alarm bells rang in his heart. He was about to shout when Shadow Six shot him in the back of the neck with a hidden weapon.
His eyes rolled back in his head and he collapsed. Shadow Six caught the guard in a flash, pulled off the key at his waist, and put him down beside his companion.
Qing Yan looked at Shadow Six, who was walking over with the key, in surprise. “Why are you here too? Didn’t you go with Jiuchao to look for Ah Wan?”
“There.” Shadow Six pouted behind him.
Qing Yan took the opportunity to look. The two figures standing in the shadows were Jiuchao and Shadow Thirteen.
Qing Yan’s face immediately darkened. “Nonsense! Why did you bring the Jiuchao along? Don’t you know how dangerous this place is?”
It was fine if these guys risked their lives to rush over. Jiuchao did not know martial arts, and he was poisoned. If he made a mistake, he might lose his life!
Qing Yan looked at him and then at Shadow Thirteen. “Why don’t the two of you stop him?”
Ah Dou did not understand JJiuchao’s health issues, but did these two fellows not understand either?
Qing Yan was so angry!
Shadow Six curled his lips. “How do you know we didn’t stop him?”
But who could stop Young Master’s decision?
Shadow Thirteen said indifferently, “We can’t enter without Young Master. Let’s unlock the door. We can’t stay here for long. Let’s leave the palace first. We’ll talk about the rest later.”
“Yes!” Shadow Six obediently opened the lock.
“Grandma.” Qing Yan helped the old man up.
Yue Gou and Ah Wei also helped the old man bow and walk out of the prison carriage. Shadow Six helped him down and reached out to help Qing Yan and the other two. Qing Yan and Yue Gou let the youngest Ah Wei alight from the prison carriage first. Then, Qing Yan let Yue Gou alight from the carriage before patting his thigh and walking down.
“By the way, where’s Ah Wan? Is she alright?” Qing Yan asked.
Shadow Six said, “Young Madam is fine. She and Asura are waiting for us outside. Stop talking and leave quickly!”
“We can’t leave!” Qing Yan, Ah Wei, and Yue Gou said in unison.
Ah Dou, Yan Jiuchao, and the other two looked over in confusion.
A strange look flashed across Qing Yan’s eyes. “Yue Gou knows too?!”
Yue Gou coughed lightly. “I… I just found out.”
Qing Yan was about to explode! If it wasn’t that the occasion wasn’t right, and time was tight, he really wanted to settle the scores with these two brats!
He was wondering why Ah Wei had been sneaking all the way here. His appetite was so big that it was as if he was pregnant. It turned out that he had secretly brought the three little fellows along!
Yue Gou was also despicable. Not reporting what he knew was equivalent to being an accomplice!
Shadow Six asked in shock, “What’s wrong?”
Yue Gou lowered his head and pinched his fingers.
Qing Yan glared at him and Ah Wei angrily. He took a deep breath and said, “Dabao and the others are inside.”
The few of them paused.
Qing Yan said with a headache, “Well… I don’t have the time to explain. Let’s find them first! They should be hungry and go in to find food.”
Yan Jiuchao walked in and Shadow Thirteen stopped him. “Young Master! I’ll go find the Little Masters. Go down the mountain first! I’ll listen to you about everything else, but not this time.”
With that, he did not give Yan Jiuchao a chance to give orders at all. He placed Yan Jiuchao on Shadow Six’s back. “Shadow Six, bring Young Master away!”
Shadow Six glanced at Shadow Thirteen timidly. Why don’t you take the young master away? I’ll go look for the little masters?
Shadow Thirteen cupped his hands. “Sorry for offending you, Young Master!”
They agreed to let the young master go up the mountain because no one could pass through that passage except for the young master. However, they could take over the task of finding Dabao and the other two.
“Ah Dou, escort Young Master and Grandma down the mountain. I’ll go find the little masters.”
