A rare opportunity

Chapter 135 Leaving the City

Park Sung-Hyun wanted to leave immediately, but was forced to stay by Hua Zirong. Maybe he was afraid that Park Sung-Hyun would ask questions, right?

Li Yu immediately took Li Ya and returned to the clinic under the escort of Zhu Neng and Wang Xian. When the four arrived at the clinic gate, Li Yu was worrying about how to accommodate the two. Zhu Neng and Wang Xian suddenly stopped, and Zhu Neng bowed to Li Yu and said:

"Mr. Li, we two will not follow you into the clinic. The master told us to only protect you in secret and not to show our faces in public. Please forgive me!"

Li Yu couldn't help but feel disappointed when he heard this! They were planning to spy on him secretly! It's easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against an arrow from the dark! It's always uncomfortable to have someone secretly watching you from behind! He would rather have these two people with him all day long than be secretly spied on by them! But what else could he do? He couldn't refuse, and he didn't have the strength to refuse!

He immediately bowed to the two of them and said:

"In this case, thank you for your hard work!"

Then he led Li Ya into the clinic. As soon as they entered the door of the clinic, they saw Bai Shouwu and Fei Guangsheng pacing anxiously in the treatment room, looking outside from time to time. And a man was squatting on the ground, holding his head with his hands and sobbing quietly!

When Bai Shouwu saw Li Yu and Li Ya entering the hall, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh! He shouted:

"Mr. Li, you are finally back!"

The man squatting on the ground suddenly raised his head when he heard this, and seeing Li Yu was like seeing a savior, he fell to his knees with a plop, crying:

"Sir, help... help, help!"

Only then did Li Yu realize that the man kneeling on the ground was actually Jiang Laonian!

Jiang Laonian has been grateful to Li Yu since Li Yu not only cured his injuries but also cured his long-standing illness! On weekdays, whenever he goes to the city, no matter how late or how busy he is, he will find a way to visit Li Yu. Although his family lives in poverty, he always brings him some local specialties. Every ten days or half a month, Li Yu will let him take the wolf king out of the city to find food. After a few visits, the two have become good friends.

But he never comes this late! Li Yu saw that he was crying hoarsely and his eyes were red, and he obviously encountered some difficulties. He immediately stepped forward and pulled him up, and asked anxiously:

"Brother Jiang, what's wrong? What happened?"

Jiang Laonian was not good at speaking, and his crying was even more inexpressible! He just kept shouting "Help!" but couldn't explain what was going on!

Bai Shouwu immediately said to Li Yu:

"Mr. Li, your friend said that he suddenly fell seriously ill and needs timely treatment. Lao Fei and I know that you have a close relationship with him, and we want to go to treat him. But he only trusts you and insists on waiting for you to come back!"

Li Yu was shocked when he heard this! He hurriedly asked:

"How long has he been here?"

"I'll be here this afternoon!"

Fei Guangsheng replied hurriedly.

"What? You..."

Li Yu was so angry that his whole body trembled when he heard this! He then reached out and grabbed Jiang Laonian by the collar and roared:

"Why are you howling? Lead me the way!"

When Jiang Laonian heard this, a hint of hesitation flashed across his eyes, and he led the way in silence.

Li Yu didn't have time to explain anything to Bai Shouwu and Fei Guangsheng. He just called the Wolf King and followed him with Li Ya.

Li Yu saw Jiang Laonian walking forward silently in front of him, and he couldn't help but feel extremely anxious. He thought: Jiang Laonian's character is really weak! Half a day has passed, plus the time he needs to rush to the city, it will take at least a day. This matter concerns human life, but Jiang Laonian doesn't seem to be in a hurry!

Li Yu immediately waved his hand to call a carriage and said to Jiang Laonian who was walking in front of him with his head down:

"Brother Jiang, get in the car!"

Jiang Laonian seemed to be still thinking about something until Li Yu raised his voice. He suddenly woke up with a stunned look on his face! At Li Yu's repeated urging, he climbed onto the carriage.

But Li Yu was so anxious that he forgot one thing: the city gate was closed at night! When they hurried to Xuanwu Gate, Li Yu became even more anxious when he saw the tightly closed city gate!

This matter of life and death cannot be delayed! However, no matter how Li Yu pleaded, the city guards ignored him. Even if he took out all the silver he had as bribes, the city guards were unwilling to open the city gate for him.

Li Yu was helpless for a moment, and kept turning around in circles. Jiang Laonian, however, still held his head in his hands and huddled up in the carriage.

He suddenly thought of Hua Zirong! He thought: As the son of the deputy city lord, he should be able to get these city guards to open the city gates! He immediately shouted into the darkness:

"Go and tell your young master quickly, and ask him to find a way to help me open the city gate! Human lives are at stake, I have to leave the city now to save people!"

There was no sound in the darkness! It seemed as if Zhu Neng and Wang Xian did not exist at all.

Li Yu waited for a long time but saw no movement, so he shouted again. Before he finished speaking, he saw a man walking out of the darkness. That man was Zhu Neng!

Zhu Neng bowed to Li Yu, then walked into the city guards' duty room, took out a token from his arms and handed it to the captain of the city guards.

The team leader took the token and took a closer look at it. He stood up hurriedly, respectfully handed the token back with both hands, and nodded and bowed to Zhu Neng!

Zhu Neng pointed at Li Yu and others outside and whispered a few words to him. The team leader rushed out of the duty room and came to Li Yu to bow and apologize. He immediately ordered his men to open the city gate.

Li Yu, who had left the city, could not help but sigh! How quickly did the captain of the gatekeeper change from arrogant to respectful! Powerful people are easy to get things done. No matter how hard he begged before, the gate could not be opened, but now he only needs a small token!

Along the way, Jiang Laonian curled up with his hands on his head. However, as time went by, Jiang Laonian gradually became anxious and uneasy! Li Yu just thought he was worried about his wife, so he didn't take it seriously. Instead, he comforted him.

"Brother Jiang, don't worry! As long as my sister-in-law is still alive, I will definitely save her!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Laonian's face turned pale, his eyes were filled with pain, and his lips trembled as he wanted to speak, but after hesitating for a long time, he didn't utter a single word.

It was a deep night, with a new moon hanging high in the sky and numerous stars. With the cool light they emitted, one could see the distant mountains and nearby hills, and the houses and trees were all pitch black!

When another dark building appeared in front of them, Jiang Laonian became even more anxious! When the carriage entered the village entrance, Jiang Laonian couldn't help but shout:

"Turn back! Turn back quickly!"

Li Yu, Li Ya and the driver were all stunned! The driver thought he had heard wrongly and asked:

"What did you say?"

"I told you to turn around! Are you fucking deaf?"

Jiang Laonian couldn't help but curse.

It was the first time that Li Yu saw Jiang Laonian lose his temper. Just as he was about to ask, he heard a sinister voice:

"Want to leave now? Can he still get away?"
