Chapter 210 No one comes to rescue?

Chapter 210 No one comes to rescue?

"Sixth Master, you must be hungry after being unconscious for so many days." The old eunuch knocked on the carriage and it stopped. Footsteps were heard outside. Zhao Yushu lifted the curtain and saw a group of people dressed as servants setting up camp.

"I am a prisoner. Am I being treated too highly?"

"You are Mr. Six, which is not tall at all."

"Oh, old man, your memory is a bit bad. I am no longer Mr. Six when I am in Wangjiang Tower."

The old eunuch smiled and did not respond, but looked not far away.

Old Man Wuxi sat on a rock, looking over here from afar.

"Hey! Old man, do you want to come and sit with us?" Zhao Yushu made a trumpet shape with his hands and shouted to old man Wuxi from afar.

The old eunuch turned his head to look at Zhao Yushu, then walked aside with a smile.

Old Man Wuxi hesitated for a moment, then his figure swayed and appeared in front of Zhao Yushu.

"If I hadn't been deceived, you wouldn't have been able to kill Wang Shaolin."

"That's right, but unfortunately you were deceived and he died in my hands. Are you planning to kill me?"

The old man Wuxi took two steps with his hands behind his back and said, "Duke Yue has offered an earth-level treasure to buy your life. I can't think of a reason to refuse."

Zhao Yushu grinned: "Why is it only the Earth Rank?"

Old Man Wu Xi laughed angrily: "You are a fourth-level heaven, even if you support the sky, you are only worth a lower-grade Xuan rank. The Earth rank is considered to be a face for you."

"Then why don't you do anything? Who are you waiting for?"

Old man Wuxi paused and looked at the old eunuch beside him. The old eunuch had his hands hanging down, looking at him sinisterly, without saying a word.

Zhao Yushu spread his hands and said, "Look, if you don't dare now, it's useless for you to follow me to Chang'an. This old man won't be deceived by someone halfway and give you the opportunity to kill me."

The old eunuch laughed and said, "Old slave, even if the sky falls, I will not leave."

Old man Wuxi's expression changed, he snorted coldly, turned around and disappeared.

"Old man, is he gone?"

"Gone, but not far away. The thief is still unapologetic, haha."

Zhao Yushu chatted with the old eunuch with a smile on his face, but his inner vigilance grew stronger and stronger. This old eunuch was unfathomable, and old man Wuxi didn't even dare to say a harsh word in front of him. It seemed that he had no chance of escaping.

As for going to Chang'an for trial, that's a joke. That's the prince's territory. How can you expect to come out safely after entering Chang'an?

Maybe the prince would get angry and stab himself, and from then on he would go to the palace to help the old eunuch.

Well, the more I think about it, the more likely it is. Otherwise, why would this old man be so polite to me? Isn't it obvious that he is trying to build a good relationship with me in advance?

Zhao Yushu subconsciously looked down and began to silently recite the old man and the eldest senior brother's names in his heart. "You two hurry up, even if I crush the wooden sign, I am still your lovely Old Six in my heart. You saved me secretly, you can just find a place to hide."

"Old man, where are we now?"

"Luzhou, tomorrow we will go north, cross the Huai River to Pengcheng, and then head west, through Dongdu, and then to Xijing."

Dongdu? Zhao Yushu glanced at the old eunuch. He said, "You have no choice but to take the land route instead of the water route. You have gone such a long way and even dared to pass through Dongdu. What do you want to do?"

Or, what do you want to do with me?

In Dongdu, on the top floor of the academy's book tower, the three chief priests and deputy chief priests of the academy and the four gentlemen of the Tianji Pavilion were all present.

"I don't know what there is to discuss. Our junior brother has been captured by the prince's men, so we just need to go and rescue him." The first to speak was Second Senior Sister Ali. She was leaning against the window as usual, her red clothes looking like blood.

"He destroyed the academy's wooden sign in public to show that what he did had nothing to do with the academy. If we act rashly, it would be tantamount to letting the academy declare that we are unreasonable and want to be enemies of all the monks in the world." Wen Jijiu patted his chair, quite indignant: "Why can't this kid be more patient!"

Ali was quite disdainful: "Don't you see who taught us? When have we ever endured it? When have we ever had to reason with the people of the Li family?"

"By the way, where is the teacher?" The fourth elder Meng Yan interrupted quickly. The second elder sister didn't have any good feelings towards the family in the Xijing Imperial City. Normally, when there was no chance, she would try to create opportunities to cause trouble. Now that there was such a good opportunity, it would be strange if she would let it go.

"The teacher has gone to keep an appointment with Master Yanhui." Third senior brother Wei You held the small notebook without raising his head.

Everyone frowned when they heard the word "Yan Hui". There were only a handful of people in this world who could give the teacher a headache, and Yan Hui was definitely one of them.

"If we don't rescue him, once they capture Zhao Yushu and bring him to Xijing, the reputation of our academy will be greatly damaged."

Liu Jijiu tried to persuade him, but Wen Jijiu glared at him and said, "I didn't say I won't save him, but we can't just rush over and snatch him away! Boss, what do you think?"

Gu Changfeng stood up: "I think they are waiting for us to rescue them."

Wen Jijiu nodded: "Go on."

"As long as the people from the academy take action, no matter whether they can save him or not, the academy's disciples will be known for killing people indiscriminately and protecting their own shortcomings. Compared to the life of the junior brother, they care more about how to discredit the academy, so..."

Everyone looked at Gu Changfeng, waiting for his next words.

"It can't be saved."

Ali snorted coldly, Wei You shook his head, Meng Yan sighed, Wen Jijiu was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and said nothing.

Liu Jijiu wanted to say something but stopped himself. Finally, he sighed and stood behind Wen Jijiu.

Zhao Yushu was not panicked at all now, and even felt a little comfortable.

We walked very slowly, almost as if we were on a picnic. At this speed, we would not be able to reach Xijing in two months.

He enjoyed the highest level of treatment in the motorcade. The old eunuchs served him like a prince, five hundred Jinwu guards followed him, hundreds of servants served him different meals every time, and local officials courted him wherever he went.

Lao Zhao was so happy that he almost forgot he was still a prisoner.

The only question is, why hasn’t anyone from the academy come over to negotiate?

Even just say a few words or give a hint.

Has the academy really completely severed ties with me?

But if that was true, Zhao Yushu had no complaints. He was the one who crushed the wooden sign, he was the one who said it, he was the one who killed the man with his own hands, so it was understandable that the academy did not care.

Let’s set the bottom line at Dongdu.

If no one comes after you pass Dongdu, you will have to find a way to escape.

Zhao Yushu looked at the sleepy old eunuch. Well, escaping from Nei Jing's hands sounds exciting.

"Well, I'm old after all. I fell asleep accidentally, haha." The old eunuch nodded suddenly and woke up.

"Old man, what should I do if I escape from you?"

The old eunuch laughed: "Sixth Master, oh no, Mr. Zhao is really good at joking. To be frank, it is estimated that it will not be easy for those students under your teacher to get away from me except for the great master."

Is it so fierce? Zhao Yushu was horrified.

Old Zhao chuckled and rubbed his head: "I'm just asking casually."

"Since Mr. Zhao asked, I must answer. If you can really get away, the world is so big, as long as you don't enter the city of Xijing, I will never ask again. What do you think, Mr. Zhao, do you want to give it a try?"

"Then give it a try?"

The two foxes, one old and one young, looked at each other and laughed together.
