Before leaving, Manager Wang took a thick handkerchief and stuffed Gu Liang's mouth tightly to prevent him from shouting.

At night, all the lights outside the door were turned off, and everything was quiet. Only a cricket in the house came from nowhere and kept chirping.

During the day, Gu Liang had already seen the situation of this house. The house was large and of poor quality. It was a firewood house.

Gu Liang felt a little speechless about tying himself to the pillar of the firewood house. Why was life the same as in TV dramas, where people were sent to the firewood house as soon as they were tied up? This was too unoriginal.

It was already the second watch of the night. Gu Liang thought that everyone outside was asleep, so if he didn't run now, when would he?

Gu Liang was tied up very tightly now. The hemp rope wrapped him like an old Beijing chicken roll, and the circles looked like half a croissant.

Although his hands were also tied with a knot, it didn't bother Gu Liang at all. After all, he could just put it into the space and it would be done.

After cleaning the hemp ropes on his hands and body, Gu Liang could finally take out the thick handkerchief in his mouth. The handkerchief that Wang Guanshi stuffed in had an old man's smell, which made Gu Liang sick. It was like food fermented in a swill bucket to produce a sour taste, and then stirred into a paste, heated and served to you on the table, and then forced to eat it.

Gu Liang looked out the door through the broken window paper in the moonlight. There were two people guarding outside the door. One of them had fallen asleep, and the other was sitting on a stone, half asleep. Although the security was not strict, the door was locked, and they could not get out by force, after all, the sound of breaking in would definitely wake them up.

Gu Liang looked into the distance again and found that the tallest building in the distance was somewhat familiar. The green body and red roof were extremely beautiful under the moonlight. Such luxurious buildings are rare, at least there are no such exquisite pavilions in their entire Lotus Town.

"Feng Ke Lai" Gu Liang thought of the name of this building in his mind. It was the most luxurious restaurant in Guanyao Town, specializing in receiving some merchants who came here from other places to purchase goods. The reason why Gu Liang knew its name was that the owner of the Tianqing Kiln Factory was grateful to Gu Liang for always choosing to use their jars and sent him Feng Ke Lai's roast chicken several times. This roast chicken is called "You Feng Lai Yi", and it tastes very good, with a crispy skin and full of juice inside, which is comparable to that made in modern restaurants.

In ancient times, there was a shortage of civilian food, and it was already a very good level if it could compare with modern food. Gu Liang was so hungry that he took out a few mung bean cakes from the space to fill his stomach.

Gu Liang stuffed the mung bean cakes into his mouth while thinking that since he was in Guanyao Town and the White King had appeared, he could basically be sure that he was in the Guanjia Kiln Factory.

However, the Guanjia Kiln Factory occupied a huge area. Even if Gu Liang had been there once, he went to their staff dormitory and was not familiar with the road at all. In the middle of the night, even if he ran out of this house, he might not be able to run out of the kiln factory. If he was discovered and caught again, the consequences would be disastrous.

However, there was no time to thank him, and Gu Liang had to let himself run out first. The firewood in this firewood room occupied half of the area, and the remaining half was empty. Gu Liang looked for a gap in the empty half, after all, the sound of stepping on dry firewood on the firewood side was too obvious. After searching for a while, he finally found a hole in the cover of a wooden board that was almost big enough for a cat to enter and exit.

Gu Liang thought for a while, and finally found a straight axe in the space.

Originally, Gu Liang wanted to use this axe to cut the bricks around the hole bit by bit. After all, bricks are brittle without being fired, and it is easy to be dug out.

However, when Gu Liang used the axe to cut, he obviously felt that the sound was wrong. He cut several times but no soil came down. It was late at night and he couldn't see clearly. Gu Liang touched it with his hand again, and then he realized that the wall was actually made of fired bricks. Here, most of the houses are made of bricks, and the firewood room will never be built with fired bricks. However, this is a kiln factory. Since pottery can be fired, bricks can be fired.

Seeing this situation, Gu Liang had to give up and find another way.

After a while, Gu Liang set his sights on the rear window on the high place. The windows in ancient times were all made of wood, which was much easier to destroy than blue bricks.

After a while, there was a creaking sound coming from the house. When the person who was not asleep outside heard it, he thought it was a mouse coming out of nowhere. Late at night, mice often appeared in the woodshed. As for Gu Liang inside, no one believed that the kidnapper had been kidnapped.

It was so strong that a child could break free.

Gu Liang stepped on the things he took out from the space and finally opened the wooden stick blocking the window. He looked out, and the layers of walls were endless, and the high and low eaves were full of intrigue. If he ran out directly, he would probably be trapped in this maze.

"I have to think of a way, preferably to allow myself to walk out unimpeded, including the gate of this housekeeper's kiln factory, after all, the gate is locked at night." Gu Liang silently calculated in his heart how to get out smoothly.

At this time, in the silent night, the sound of the night watchman's drum beat came from a distance.

After the fast and slow drum beats, the voice of the woodcutter came: "All is well." In ancient times, the sound of each watch was different. Only in the first watch would they shout "The weather is dry, be careful of fire and candles", and all is well means that it is now the third watch, around twelve o'clock in the evening.

Listening to the sound of the night watch getting farther and farther away, Gu Liang had an idea in his mind. Since he wanted to escape and wanted the door of the housekeeper's kiln factory to open for him, it meant that he had to do something big and make things serious.

Gu Liang decided to learn from Prime Minister Zhuge and use fire attack. To be on the safe side, Gu Liang not only had to burn this firewood room, but also had to find two relatively good houses nearby, so that he could take advantage of the chaotic scene when people were fighting the fire and escape.

As for how to light the fire at the same time, it naturally depends on his own Ba Wang Zui.

Before, when the sales of Ba Wang Zui at home were not going up, Gu Liang distilled a batch of Ba Wang Zui for the second time, with a very high alcohol content, the kind that would catch fire as soon as it was ignited. However, the alcohol content of this wine was too high and it was not popular, so Gu Liang put it in his own space, thinking that he would have time to distill it again in the future and use it as medical alcohol for disinfection.

Gu Liang took out this difficult Ba Wang Zui, sprinkled some on the firewood in the firewood room, and then poured it all the way to the cat hole he had just discovered, connecting it to the outside.

Gu Liang placed a few more bags full of things under the window, and then climbed down. He poured wine under the eaves, walked more than 20 meters, turned a corner, and came to a row of luxurious-looking houses. Although it was not very clear at night, the several layers of brackets in the house showed that this house was occupied by a person of good status.

Gu Liang sprinkled all the remaining wine on the combustibles and windows around the house, but not at the door. After all, he didn't know if there was anyone living in the house, and he didn't want to hurt innocent people. The only people he had a grudge against were Wang Guanshi and his family.

Gu Liang picked up the fire starter and lit the wine, and the flames spread in an instant.
