Continue walking forward, Wang Hu said that the journey is relatively long, so it is best to find a carriage.

When a soldier heard this, he suddenly opened his eyes wide open and kicked Wang Hu with one foot.

"Hmph, a prisoner dares to make such a request? He doesn't even consider his identity!"

Wang Hu was kicked so hard that he almost fell to the ground, but he gritted his teeth and did not say anything.

"Stop dreaming, hurry on the road honestly, otherwise you will suffer."

Wang Hu looked up at the road ahead, and the winding road seemed to have no end.

He sighed secretly in his heart, knowing that the argument was useless at this moment, so he had to drag his heavy steps to continue to follow the team, but a trace of unwillingness and stubbornness flashed in his eyes.

The scorching sun hangs high, making the earth hot, and a few people move slowly in the flying dust.

Wang Hu's forehead was covered with sweat, and his prison uniform had been soaked in sweat, and it was sticky and uncomfortable when he was stuck on his back.

His feet seemed to be filled with lead, and he had to make great efforts every step he took.

Seeing Wang Hu's pace slow, the soldier raised the whip in his hand and made a crisp sound in the air.

"Hurry up, don't be too slow!"

A burst of anger surged in Wang Hu's heart, but he knew that resistance at this time would only put him in a worse situation, so he could only suppress the resentment in his heart.

When he reached a hillside, Wang Hu slipped under his feet and almost rolled down the mountain.

He grabbed a small tree on the side of the road in panic and barely stabilized his body.

The soldiers burst into laughter.

"This waste, I can't even walk well." Wang Hu bit his lip tightly, his hand was cut by a branch, and blood oozed out. He silently let go of the branch and continued to move forward.

I don’t know how long I walked, but the sky got darker, and the team finally camped beside a forest.

Wang Hu sat tiredly on the ground, and his stomach began to growl.

He looked at the soldiers not far away sitting together, eating dry food, and his heart was full of bitterness.

At this moment, the soldiers asked how far they were, and Wang Hu said that there were at least more than a hundred miles.

Several soldiers widened their eyes, and one soldier shouted with an angry face: "Why didn't you say it earlier? When will you have to wait?"

Their roar echoed on the empty road, shocking the grass on the side of the road, and a few hares fled in panic.

Wang Hu sneered and replied: "I have said that I have hired a carriage. Aren't you unhappy?"

At this moment, several soldiers were even more angry. One of them said gritted his teeth: "If you deceive us, you will be responsible for the consequences!"

The blue veins on the soldier's forehead swelled up like twisted earthworms, and the spear in his hand trembled slightly from anger.

Wang Hu curled his lips and said indifferently: "If you believe it or not."

The soldiers surrounded him, one by one, as if they were about to teach Wang Hu a lesson.

Wang Hu raised his head slightly, with no fear in his eyes, and looked at them.

One of the soldiers with a fat face suddenly grabbed Wang Hu's collar and lifted him up, "You death row prisoner, you dare to be stubborn!"

Wang Hu said calmly: "I'm just telling the truth. If you don't believe it, you can go on and try it yourself. If you delay your trip, don't blame me for not reminding me."

A slightly thin soldier next to him seemed a little worried and persuaded him: "Brother, maybe what he said is true, so let's be careful."

The soldier with a fat face snorted and let go of Wang Hu.

"I don't know that you dare not lie. If you can't see the destination tomorrow, you will be beautiful!"

After some discussion, several soldiers decided to camp and rest on the spot today and wait until they hired a carriage tomorrow before continuing their journey.

They started to set up camps busy, some soldiers searching for water, while others were packing their luggage, and their communication with each other was much less than before, and they were obviously still worried about the long journey.

Wang Hu sat quietly aside, looking at the busy figures of the soldiers. Although he had not spoken a word, an undetectable sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Armas carefully sorted out his clothes. Under the night sky, he steadily walked towards the vermilion door of the Huang Mansion and raised his hand to knock on the door knocker.

After a moment, the concierge slowly opened the door, looked at Armas with a little scrutiny, and asked, "What's wrong with you?"

Armas smiled and said sincerely: "Brother, I am really desperate. I have been looking for several inns, but they are all full of guests. Do you see if you can make it convenient and allow me to stay here? I will be grateful."

When the concierge heard this, he frowned slightly and said in a cold tone: "Don't make things difficult for me. This is an ordinary mansion, not an inn. He has never stayed overnight with outsiders. You should leave quickly."

After saying that, he wanted to close the door.

Seeing the doorman refuse, Armas took out a handful of money from his arms calmly, weighed it gently, and said, "Don't worry, brother, I know that I can't make you embarrassed. I will definitely offer you the fees you should pay, and some of them will be rewarded for you, just treat it as the tea money that the brother has worked hard to help."

The doorman's eyes lit up instantly, his attitude changed immediately, his face filled with smiles, but he still said with some embarrassment: "Young master is so generous, the little one is grateful. But the little one really can't make a decision, so he has to ask the butler for instructions."

Armas nodded slightly and said gently and politely: "Since that's the case, I'll have a good time for you."

The concierge repeatedly said yes, asking Armas to wait in place, but he turned around and walked quickly to the inner courtyard to find the butler Xu Dabao to report the situation.

The concierge ran all the way to the inner courtyard and found the butler Xu Dabao, and said hurriedly: "Butler, someone came outside, saying that the inn was full and he wanted to stay here for a night. He looked very pitiful and said he was willing to pay. Look..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Dabao frowned, his face darkened, and he shouted: "What are you talking nonsense! We are Huang Mansion, not an inn. If you want to take in any person, how can you do it?"

The concierge was scolded and shrank his neck. He was timid and did not dare to say anything. He looked at Xu Dabao with one eye, hoping that he could change his mind.

Xu Dabao waved his hand impatiently: "Since that's the case, just drive that person away."

The concierge Nonuo responded and turned around and took a few steps. Xu Dabao suddenly spoke again: "Let's go and see him."

I thought in my heart that if this person could really afford the price, he could add a sum to his small treasury.

The two of them quickly arrived at the door, and the concierge quickly introduced: "This is our butler."

Seeing this, Armas immediately bowed politely and said with a smile: "It's really a matter of no need to disturb you today."

Armas has a tall figure, a humble speech, and his eyes are sincere and expectant, which makes it difficult to easily refuse.

Xu Dabao looked up and down at Armas and said, "I heard that you have no place to stay, so I found this place. We can't live here casually. You have to pay five times the price of the inn, otherwise, you can only ask you to find another place."

Armas nodded calmly.

"What's wrong with this? I'm prepared for it."

After saying that, he took out a handful of money from his pocket, weighed it in his hand, and asked, "Butler Xu, are these enough?"

When Xu Dabao looked at the rich money, his eyes shone brightly and responded quickly: "Enough is enough."

Seeing this, the joy of the concierge on the side instantly disappeared. He thought he could get a fortune, but now he was taken away by the butler. Although he was very angry, he did not dare to show any of it. He could only grit his teeth and hold this breath in his heart.

Xu Dabao led Armas into the Huang Mansion, and his figure gradually disappeared from the sight of the concierge.

The concierge looked at the direction of their departure and stamped his feet in anger.

He was full of regret and secretly blamed himself for being too timid and cautious, and should have asked for some money from Armas first, which would be better than finding nothing now.

In his eyes, Xu Dabao's behavior was too greedy. He ignored the interests of him, an errand runner. The resentment in his heart spread like wild grass, but he was helpless.

Who said that the wife was particularly fond of Armas?

Xu Dabao absent-mindedly led Armas to a residence. Armas had an unknown smile on his face, but his eyes turned cold as Xu Dabao turned around.

He quickly rushed up like a black shadow, and made a sharp move, and his slender fingers accurately pinched Xu Dabao's neck.

Xu Dabao was suddenly attacked, his eyes were filled with fear, and his body struggled violently instinctively. He squeezed out a few words from his throat with difficulty.

"You...what are you doing?"

Armas sneered and lowered his voice, "Hmph, you care what I do, it's just your fault for not being greedy."

After saying that, the force on his hands increased a little more.

Xu Dabao tried to beat Armas's hand with both hands, and pedaled his feet on the ground, trying to break free from the sudden shackles.

He said with a rapid breathing: "You...you can't do this, there will be big trouble!"

But Armas ignored him completely and just stared at him fiercely, with determination in his eyes.

"It's not me who is afraid of trouble, but you greedy."

Armas continued to exert force with both hands until Xu Dabao's struggle gradually stopped and he lost his breath.

He looked at Xu Dabao's body and a cold sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"If you weren't so greedy, how could I have the chance to step into this Huang Mansion? This is all your own fault."

After saying that, he dragged Xu Dabao's body to the bottom of the bed with his movements skillfully and calmly as if he was dealing with an insignificant object.

Then, Armas sorted out his clothes as if nothing had happened and began to carefully look at the environment inside the house.

Armas quietly shuttled through the courtyard, his eyes were like torches, searching for the princess's traces everywhere, and he was sure that she would settle in some important place in this mansion.

At this time, Ren Dabai was carefully watering the flowers in a corner of the courtyard. The moonlight poured down, and silver rays fell on the flowers. The delicate flowers were more beautiful and moving under the moonlight, and his mood was also particularly comfortable and comfortable.

He raised his eyes inadvertently, and Ren Dabai caught a glimpse of Armas.

He couldn't help but wonder: Where did this come from, how could the person appear here?

When he looked at it carefully, he keenly noticed that there was a faint murderous aura around Armas.

This discovery made him increasingly puzzled and wondered what the stranger was doing.

Armas seemed to have not noticed his existence at all, but just put his hands behind him, his steps were steady and constantly walking in the courtyard, as if he was thinking about something, and as if he was chasing some elusive breath.
