Just when Jintao and the others were about to leave quickly, Xie Wu stopped Jintao.

Jintao turned her head: "What's wrong?"

"Listen." Xie Wu said.

Jintao listened attentively, as if there was a faint cry for help coming from somewhere in the yard.

"Help... help."

Fangfang suddenly thought: "It's that old woman's voice."

The three of them approached the source of the sound lightly.

"Help me."

They heard the cry for help again, much clearer than the previous one.

Jintao pointed to the water tank: "Is it in that?"

There are two large water tanks in the corner of the yard, which should have been abandoned for a long time.

There is a wooden plank on top of the two water tanks, and a lot of sundries are piled on the wooden plank.

Xie Wu raised his hand to let Jintao and Fangfang stand still: "I'll go and have a look."

Xie Wu walked over, lifted the wooden board covering the water tank, and saw that the old woman from yesterday had her hands tied and was stuffed in the water tank.

"help me."

The old woman finally saw that someone had rescued her, and hurriedly called for help.

She just woke up early this morning, and was knocked unconscious from behind by someone, and when she woke up again, she was already lying in the water tank.

The old lady tried her best to think back, she didn't offend anyone.

Jin Tao saw the old lady lying in the water tank now, which proved her previous feeling was right.

The old lady who talked to her in the morning is really fake, this one is real.

Just who is that fake old lady?

Jintao and Fangfang stepped forward together to help Xie Wu help the old woman out of the water tank.

"Thank you." The old woman stood on the ground and said out of breath.

Jintao asked: "Grandma, do you know who hid you in the water tank?"

The old lady still looked unresponsive, and shook her head: "I don't know anything."

Fangfang stepped forward and took the old woman's hand: "I know some medical skills, and I'll give you a pulse to see if you're alright?"

"Thank you." The old woman thanked again.

After a while, Fang Fang let go of her hand, "Grandma is in good health and there is nothing serious, but she may have been frightened today."

"Okay." The old woman nodded.

It's fine.

Jintao: "Then mother-in-law, you are fine, so we will leave first."

They need to get out of here quickly.

That fake old woman must have gone to call someone, if they leave late, maybe they won't be able to leave.

"Why are you leaving all of a sudden?" the old woman asked, "Aren't you going to stay for a few days? Are your legs healed?"

Jintao: "It's much better, we suddenly have something to do, so we'll leave first."

"Since you have something to do, I can't keep you any longer." The old lady walked slowly into the room, "Then I'll go back to the room and lie down first, my old waist almost broke."

These three young people must have unusual identities, it is better for her not to have anything to do with them.

Her life as an old woman was almost explained here today.

Watching the old woman enter the house and close the door, Jintao and the others were about to leave when the gate of the yard was kicked open.

The leading officers and soldiers walked in holding a big knife: "Where do you want to go?"

The officers and soldiers behind him quickly stepped forward and surrounded Jin Tao and the three of them.

Jintao visually estimated that there were at least [-] or [-] officers and soldiers in the courtyard, and she didn't know if there were any officers and soldiers guarding the courtyard.

Now in this situation, they can't escape even if they have wings.

"It can be regarded as letting me catch you." The leader laughed loudly, "Where can you run this time?"

After finishing speaking, he said to the people behind him: "Brother, you have to go out and buy you a drink when you go back."

"It is a blessing for a villain to be able to serve an adult."

The person pretending to be the old woman is now nodding and bowing and talking to the person in front of her.

Although he was still dressed like the old woman, it was obvious that it was a man.

Why can a person imitate others so vividly? Otherwise, Jin Tao would not have any doubts about him at all because his hands are too strong.

"My lord." The man rubbed his hands awkwardly, "My lord, don't forget to reward the villain."

The leader stared at him, quite impatiently: "Don't worry, you are indispensable."

"Yes yes yes," said the flattering one, "the villain is waiting for the good news."

The leader waved his hand: "Bring them all back to me!"

Both Jintao and Xie Wu saw the small movements behind Fangfang, and looked at each other tacitly.

When the officers and soldiers were about to catch them, Fangfang suddenly shouted: "Shut your breath!"

At the same time, with the three of them as the center of the circle, a handful of white powder was thrown out from their hands.

The white powder flew with the wind, and the inhaled person lost consciousness immediately.

Jin Tao watched the officers and soldiers fall to the ground one after another with a "plop plop".

"Come on."

Jintao and Xie Wu picked up the weapons that fell on the ground, protected Fangfang and evacuated out of the house together.

The leader lay on the ground, struggling to remember but unable to do what he wanted: "Don't let...don't let...they run away."

However, all the officers and soldiers fainted, and only two or three officers and soldiers were left. Jintao was knocked unconscious as soon as he went up, so no one listened to his orders.

"Dog thing!" Fangfang stepped forward and kicked the man mercilessly, "You still want to catch us? Just dream! Let you taste the power of my newly developed medicinal powder."

As soon as she smelled this medicine powder, she would immediately feel powerless and fainted. It was a masterpiece she just finished last night, and the purpose was to go to the yamen to save Lin Yanqi at that time.

She was still thinking about where it would be more appropriate to do an experiment, but the officers and soldiers took the initiative to send it to her door.

Judging from the current effect, she has developed this medicinal powder very successfully.

"Let's go." Jintao went over and pulled Fangfang away.

However, just as Jintao and the others turned to run away, a dagger was on Fangfang's neck.

"You...how are you okay?"

Fangfang didn't expect that there was another fish that slipped through the net.

The fish that slipped through the net was the person who just pretended to be the old woman.

Xie Wu and Jintao apparently didn't expect it either, and asked nervously, "What do you want to do?"

"Your little tricks are all left over from my previous play." The man smiled, looked at Jintao and the others and said disdainfully, "None of you are allowed to leave. If you leave, where will I get my bounty?"

Seeing the way this man begged for money in a low voice just now, Jin Tao knew that this man helped the officers and soldiers arrest them for the reward.

If he's only in it for the money, that's fine.
