Chapter 153 Meeting Xiaoxue Again 1
Xiaoxue just woke up from a dream and followed Yin Xi in a random direction and ran hard.

Just running like this, Yin Xi ran back to the edge of the city wall by chance. She was afraid that the ogre behind her would become so angry that she wanted to kill someone because Yin Xi and the others had ruined her good deeds time and time again. She jumped hard in desperation. Climbing into the wall with Xiaoxue.

When she saw the familiar alley in front of her, Yin Xi really wanted to sigh about her inseparable fate from this city.

But it's clear now is not the time.

"Why are you here?" Xiaoxue's puzzled voice sounded in Yin Xi's ears, "How dare you come back after being hunted by the whole city."

Yin Xi thought to himself that it was a long story. He didn't go far at all and stayed in the tree for a long time.

"Don't worry about it for now. Let's leave quickly. I'll take you back to Yu Shi's place," she said.

Unexpectedly, Yin Xi's suggestion was rejected by Xiaoxue: "No!"

"Why? Isn't it safest for you to go to your brother's place so late?" Yin Xi frowned.

The next second, Xiaoxue impatiently threw away Yin Xi's hand and said in a bad tone: "If you say no, you can't. I'm leaving. As for you, if you don't want to be caught, leave quickly."

It's hard for Yin Xi to imagine how Yu Shi usually tolerates Xiaoxue's temper, but now Yin Xi doesn't want to let her wander around.

"How are you going to leave on your own? The ogre will catch up and take you away for a midnight snack, but you will be dead!" Yin Xi scolded Xiaoxue in desperation.

Perhaps because her voice was too anxious and harsh, Xiaoxue was so stunned that she didn't dare to move anymore, so she was forcefully dragged by Yin Xi and ran towards Yu Shi's house.

Due to the curfew and closure of the city, there were no pedestrians on the street early and the lights were turned off. It was dark. Yin Xi took Xiaoxue and ran away. After two wrong steps, it took a long time to arrive at the door of Yu Shi's house.

"Dong dong dong!" Yin Xi didn't have time to take a breath and hurriedly patted Yu Shi's door.

"Yu Shi, Yu Shi, are you asleep? Open the door quickly!" she said.

Such rapid and loud knocking on the door would wake anyone up, so Yu Shi hurriedly ran to open the door with a chicken coop on his head, bare feet, and the clothes he had thrown on but inside out.

"Xiaoxue, what's wrong with you? What happened? Didn't you leave?" When he saw Yin Xi, he was confused.

Yin Xi pulled Xiaoxue into the house and quickly closed the door with her backhand.

"Your sister was kidnapped by the ogre. Fortunately, we met her. My brother doesn't know how the fight with him went." Yin Xi said.

After Yu Shi heard the whole story, he immediately woke up and no longer felt sleepy. He pulled Xiaoxue behind him and thanked Yin Xi: "Xiaoxue had a bad time with me during the day and went out to run around. I thought she would come back honestly. I went to the place where I was working, but I didn’t expect to encounter something like this. Fortunately, a girl came to rescue me, otherwise Xiaoxue would have been in danger.”

Facing Shi Cheng's sincere thanks, Yin Xi didn't say much, because Yin Guizhou hadn't arrived yet, so she couldn't feel relieved. She just warned her, "You and Xiaoxue stay here, don't go anywhere, I'll go first." Go find my brother."

After saying that, she quickly ran outside again.

Because he didn't know where Yin Guizhou was now, or whether he was still fighting the ogres outside the city, Yin Xi had no choice but to run towards the city gate again.

But on the empty street, Yin Xi was groping in the dark and bumped into someone unprepared.

The collision was so severe that Yin Xi's eyes were filled with pain, but out of instinct, she still reluctantly said sorry to him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't see it. Are you okay?" Yin Xi said, rubbing her head.The other party hurriedly picked up the things scattered on the ground and had no time to answer her words, but Yin Xi vaguely recognized the person's identity under the moonlight.

"Liu Er, why are you still out so late?"

Liu Er became even more panicked after being recognized by Yin Xi. He threw things in his arms and turned around to run away, but was grabbed by Yin Xi.

"Stop running around and go home quickly," she said.

Liu Er didn't seem to want to talk to Yin Xi. He just said "um huh huh" a few times and still wanted to leave.

His abnormal behavior naturally made Yin Xi suspicious. She said, "Why are you panicking? What is that in your arms?"

Liu Er panicked, fearing that Yin Xi would find out that he was stealing other people's things in the middle of the night, so he said nervously: "No, it's nothing." Then he changed the subject and said: "Girl, don't care about me anymore. You should go and care about Uncle Zhang." .”

Hearing him suddenly mention the shopkeeper, Yin Xi asked without knowing why, "What's wrong with the shopkeeper?"

Liu Er said truthfully: "Someone reported to the city lord that you had stayed at Uncle Zhang's inn for a reward, but Uncle Zhang did not report it. In addition, you arrested his son for deliberate revenge, so the city lord killed Zhang in anger. Uncle Zhang was taken to prison, and it’s been a long time now. I don’t know how Uncle Zhang is doing in there.”

Hearing Liu Er's words, Yin Xi was surprised and worried: "What is the prison for?"

Liu Er said truthfully: "The prison is a place where criminals are tortured. It is full of torture instruments. It is very scary. Uncle Zhang went in because of you. I don't know if he can stand it at his age."

The more Yin Xi listened, the more worried she became. She only asked, "Where is the prison?"

After Liu Er pointed out the direction to her, Yin Xi was so anxious that she ignored him and ran directly in that direction.

Although she didn't know where Yin Guizhou was now, and the two of them had nothing to communicate with, Yin Xi had an unknown feeling. She firmly believed that Yin Guizhou, who was so powerful, would find her in a short time.

Therefore, the only important thing left in Yin Xi's mind now is to rescue the shopkeeper.

The prison is right behind the City Lord's Mansion, and the City Lord's Mansion is the largest and most luxurious residence in the city. Yin Xi can find it without searching hard.

Although no one was guarding the main entrance for some reason, Yin Xi was not a fool and knew that he could not go through the main entrance even so.

So she was smart and walked around the wall until she came to the prison.

Looking at the two-person-high wall in front of him, Yin Xi briefly recalled the high-jumping ability he had inadvertently learned just now because of his eagerness to save Xiaoxue.

Using his spiritual power in his mind, Yin Xi took a deep breath, then charged up his energy and jumped, leaping over the high wall and landing safely.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she landed on the ground and before she had time to feel happy about her abilities, she was tied tightly by a rope that shot out from nowhere.

"What's going on?" Yin Xi was caught off guard by the unexpected rope, and fell to the ground without being able to stand firm.

Then her doubts were answered coldly by the figure who appeared in front of her.

"It's an immortal rope, specially prepared for you." Yan Gui walked up to Yin Xi and said condescendingly: "I expected you to have the courage to come back. I have been waiting here for you for a long time."
