Cheng Hang lowered his head and hurried to the square gate.

Cheng Hang did not wear the robes of a scribe, but wore a coarse linen garment worn by ordinary people for working. According to the habits of ordinary people, he loosened his chest a little, because when working, if it is too tight, it will not only cause difficulty in breathing, but also

Sweat does not dry easily, and the hem of the gown is tied around the waist with a cloth belt. I wear a pair of straw sandals and walk close to the street with my waist bent.

There are three square gates in the south area of ​​​​Nanzheng. If you want to escape via the Han River, you must first go to the inland river in the city, find a place to get into the water, and then sneak into the ditch until dark, and then get out...

But Cheng Hang didn't walk out for long when he felt something was wrong behind him. Two libertines stood up from under the old tree at the corner of the street and followed Cheng Hang.

Cheng Hang didn't know if there was something wrong with his attire, or if it was because these two libertines were going to have fun?

In fact, Cheng Hang's problem did not lie in his attire, but because Cheng Hang subconsciously covered up the information tightly wrapped in oil paper, so the two libertines thought that Cheng Hang had some wealth...

The risk of getting a country bumpkin is not high, and you might be able to earn money for two days of wine and meat!

Cheng Hang walked leisurely along the road. There were still some pedestrians, vendors, and passing carriages and horses on the street, and the two followers were still following him at a close distance. Every time Cheng Hang turned around,

They immediately turned around and pretended to look at the shops on both sides.

Really keep up...

"Very clumsy." Cheng Hang commented secretly, feeling a little impatient at the same time, and decided to get rid of these two annoying guys. So he quickened his pace, which surprised the follower, who couldn't help but follow closely.

Their stalking behavior was completely exposed.

Cheng Hang flashed at the entrance of an alley and disappeared.

The two libertines were eager to go to the alley, but they met a group of nobles who were traveling. They were laughing and joking as if they were preparing to go to a banquet. They were all wearing brocade robes and swaying forward accompanied by guards on both sides.

Let's go. Today, the four cities are closed and no one is allowed to go out, and they are not allowed to go shopping or drink on the streets, so these nobles don't pay much attention to it and continue to live the life they are accustomed to.

The two libertines did not dare to collide with the gentry disciples in this group, and waited until these dozen or so people had passed by before they hurried to the alley. Cheng Hang's figure had long since disappeared...

Just as the two libertines were looking at each other, a group of patrol soldiers came over, frowned and asked, "You two! What are you doing?!"

The prodigal was startled, trembled for a moment, and then suddenly said: "I...we, we found a suspicious person! Yes, we found a suspicious person!"

"Where?!" The soldiers rushed over in a hurry.

"This... reward..." The prodigal stretched out his paw.

"I'll give you a reward for being paralyzed!" The captain of the squadron was not polite to these libertines. He opened his mouth and cursed, "You only get reward for catching me. Now you want a reward for nothing! Where is the person? Where is he?"

"I saw him running over there...Brother, why don't you give me a few coppers first..."

"Get out! Only if you catch me! Hurry! Hurry, keep up!"

This group of people rushed into the alley in chaos, searching for Cheng Hang's footprints.

Nanzheng is close to the Han River, so there are naturally many ships transporting goods back and forth. When Chenghang arrived at the inland river, he found that it was also sealed up, and many ships stayed at the dock. Some laborers made a living by loading and unloading goods.

, crouching in the corner with a gloomy look on their face. The boat cannot enter or exit, so naturally there is no work for them.

Cheng Hang's eyes moved, and while no one else was paying attention, he walked down a few steps, squatted down by the edge of the inland ditch, and pretended to wash his hands while looking at it.

Looking at the surrounding situation, I observed the small sampans parked beside the river channel...

There is an iron fence at the water gate. But the grocery shopkeeper said that he had found an opportunity to cut off most of it, leaving only a little bit, so as long as he could wait until dark, there would not be a big problem in getting out.

The remaining question now is how to survive until dark without being discovered...

The team of soldiers and libertines who were following Cheng Hang appeared with a lot of shouts, and immediately attracted the attention of almost everyone. When Cheng Hang saw this, he took the opportunity to slide into the water, and did not splash much water.

Arriving in the ditch, he then dived in the direction of the small sampan he had observed earlier.

Captain Fang Ding wandered around here for a whole circle, and then he caught the coolies squatting in the corner of the ditch one by one, waiting for work, and sent people to board the small sampan, and opened the cabin board to conduct a search...

…

Of course, nothing was gained,

"Where are the people?" Captain Fang Ding looked around, but couldn't find any place to hide people. Listening to Fang Ding's reports one by one, he couldn't help but angrily grabbed the prodigal's collar, "What the hell, I asked.

Where are you, the suspicious person you mentioned?』

The prodigal looked around sadly, "This, this... I don't know either..."

"You idiot! Why don't you have fun with me?" Captain Fang Ding held the prodigal down and beat him up, then led him away angrily.
