Yu Ren stood at the entrance of the valley and stopped walking forward. Seeing that Yu Ren suddenly stopped, the man in black obviously saw his concerns.

"In the valley ahead, there is a secret passage that can lead directly to the outside of the city. After leaving the city, it is Qiantang River. Mr. Qu has arranged a small boat to pick up Mr. Yu there. My task is only to be responsible for sending Mr. Yu out of the city."

When Yu Ren heard the man in black mention Mr. Qu, hesitated for a moment and finally went into the valley with him. Because he understood that if this person really wanted to harm him, it would be no different whether he entered the valley or not.

The man in black took Yu Ren through the valley and came to a forest. After a few circles, he opened up several bushes, and indeed saw a stone cave appearing in front of them.

The man in black found a torch in the bushes and lit it with a fire stick. Obviously, the torch was hidden here in advance.

"There are many forks in the cave, so Mr. Yu must follow me closely." The man in black said, then walked in with a torch as he took the torch.

The cave is not too big, and the two of them have to bend over to walk in. Looking at the appearance of the cave, it seems to be naturally generated.

The two of them walked for a few forks before they met. Yu Ren didn't know how this man distinguished the forks, so he just followed them blindly.

After walking about two or three miles away, Yu Ren felt that the cave was different from the one in front. There were obvious chiseling marks here, which were obviously dug by hand. It seemed that the person who opened the cave should have discovered this natural cave first, and then processed it on this basis to achieve his own function.

Shortly after walking into the artificial excavation section, Yu Ren clearly felt the cave bend upward. After about half a mile walking, the man in black pushed a stone away and climbed out of the cave.

Yu Ren also crawled out, and the man in black immediately sealed the hole with stones. From the outside, there was no trace of abnormality.

After following the man in black, he walked a short mountain road and arrived at the Qiantang River. At this time, the Qiantang River was calm. Yu Ren saw a small fishing boat docked on the shore from afar. The faint lights on the boat showed that the owner had not fallen asleep yet.

The man in black led Yu Ren onto the boat. The one who carried the boat was an old man in his fifties and sixties. At this time, the old man was sitting in the cabin and smoking a dry tobacco.

"Can the boatman go to sea?" asked the man in black.

The old man raised his head and glanced at the man in black. "Where are the guests going?"

"I'm going to Dongyang, may the boatman deliver it?" said the man in black.

After hearing this, Yu Ren almost laughed out loud. He thought to himself, just a boat about ten meters long, and when it comes to the East, I am afraid that I will be swept away by the waves after I can't get out of Hangzhou Bay. Could this man in black have gotten into his mind?

But what surprised him was that after hearing the man in black, the old man actually said, "Yes! It's just that the ship's capital is very high."

At this moment, Yu Ren was speechless. Unexpectedly, all he met tonight were people with a brain.

When the man in black heard this, he handed the small flag that he had just taken to Yu Renjian from his arms to the old man. "The man has been sent. Let's drive the boat!" After that, the man in black jumped off the boat, hurried away in the night, and soon turned a corner and disappeared.

Yu Ren was dumbfounded. Only then did he realize that the seemingly ridiculous conversation between the two of them just now should be a code word. But he followed the man in black so far, but he still couldn't see clearly what he looked like.

The old man took the flag and carefully put it back in his arms. Without looking at Yu Ren, he got up and drove the boat.

When the fishing boat was far away from Hangzhou City, the sky gradually became brighter. The old man was rowing the boat attentively and seemed to turn a blind eye to Yu Ren. Yu Ren wanted to talk to him several times, but he was forced back by his indifference.

After the sun was three times, the old man said to Yu Ren, "There is breakfast in the box in the cabin. If you are hungry, eat it yourself."

Yu Ren finally waited until the old man took the initiative to speak, and it didn't matter whether he would eat breakfast or not. "Old man, where are we going?"

The old man didn't answer, as if he didn't hear Yu Ren's question at all.

Not long after, Yu Ren began to feel that the river surface was getting wider and wider, and the wind and waves gradually became bigger. Soon he could no longer see the river surface on both sides. Yu Ren estimated that they must have sailed out of the Qiantang River and entered Hangzhou Bay.

At this moment, a big ship came towards him. It looked like a merchant ship, and there was no flag hanging on it. The old man who made the boat see the merchant ship and greeted the fishing boat.

Yu Ren secretly guessed that he didn't know who would be waiting for him on this merchant ship.

Soon, the fishing boat leaned against the big merchant ship. The merchant ship was much taller than the fishing boat and could not be reached directly. Someone put down a rope ladder on it, and both sides did not answer. Seeing that the rope ladder was put down, the old man sent Yu Ren up.

Although Yu Ren was very confused, he didn't ask, because he knew that even if he asked, the old man might not tell him.

When Yu Ren climbed onto the merchant ship, he finally saw two acquaintances. One was Liu Qiang who looked like Li Kui, and the other was Qu Jing, the first counselor under Li Ying.

This time, Yu Ren was completely relieved.

Liu Qiang was very happy to see Yu Ren. He came up and hugged him, "Mr. Yu is finally back. Finally, he lives up to the lady's entrusted."

The old shipman also followed him onto the merchant ship. The old man came to Qu Jing, took out the small flag that the man in black handed to him, and carefully handed it to Qu Jing's hand. Then Qu Jing gave a salute, then turned around and got off the boat.

Qu Jing then smiled and greeted Yu Ren.

"Is Mr. Yu so good recently?"

Yu Ren smiled bitterly, "Mr. Qu, don't make fun of me. Look at my embarrassed look, I just lost my life. What's the good thing?"

Liu Qiang patted Yu Ren on the shoulder, "Don't worry, Mr. Yu. The dog official named Liao dares to torture you. When I go back, I ask the lady for instructions, give me ten gunships, kill the dog official's family, and avenge you."

Seeing Liu Qiang's serious look, Yu Ren smiled. He thought the barbarian in front of him was very cute, at least he had a clear distinction between love and hate, and dared to speak and do. However, even if he avenged himself and wanted to attack Hangzhou City, Yu Ren was against it. He believed that with Li Ying's intelligence and Qu Jing's rationality, he would never agree to do this.

"The person surnamed Liao has a grudge with me, and that is just a personal grudge between us. How can the people of Hangzhou suffer from the war? This is absolutely unavoidable." Yu Ren said. This is not because Yu Ren has a compassionate heart, but as a modern person living in peace, the beginning of war is something that cannot be touched for him.

"There is something that I have always been confused. I want to ask you, but I wonder if it is inconvenient?" Yu Ren said very politely.

"Jun Yu has something to say, but we are not outsiders." Qu Jing said.

"Since that's the case, I won't turn a corner. Do you know why this person named Liao let me out so easily this time?" Yu Ren asked.

Since he was released, Yu Ren has been thinking about this matter. He always felt that this matter must be related to Li Ying. Because he knew very well that as a member of the Zhejiang Party, Liao Shixiang could not easily miss this great opportunity to take the opportunity to attack the Donglin Party. If he wanted to let him go, unless he felt that there was one thing more important than attacking the Donglin Party.

It seems that the street rumors that the teahouse guy said were very likely true.

Qu Jing looked at Liu Qiang with a smile and said, "Mr. Yu should ask Liu Qiang about this. He knows this better than me."

Liu Qiang seemed a little proud, "No one knows this."

"Then please tell me about it!" Yu Ren just wants to know the truth of the matter now, and it doesn't matter who will tell it.

Liu Qiang was about to speak, but he didn't know where to start. He had something in his stomach but couldn't speak out. Seeing Yu Ren's expression of expectation, Liu Qiang had to look at Qu Jing with help, "Mr. Qu, it's your point. I'm a stupid person, I really don't know where to start!"

"Let's start with us after we break up! You seem to be very busy recently! A lot of things have happened here!" Yu Ren reminded.

Liu Qiang looked embarrassed, "Is there a lot of things? It seems that it's just about burning Wentaoyuan and scaring Liao Gouguan! It's not busy! The eldest lady didn't let me go out a while ago, so I could only stay in the house all day, and I was so idle that I was still busy!"

Qu Jing smiled, "Of course you are not busy! You are busy with me and the young lady. As long as there is no fight or trouble, the young lady will not call you. Of course you are not busy. But if you are not busy, it means we are not busy either!"

Yu Ren also knew that with Liu Qiang's personality and ability, he could not participate in many affairs of the Li family. This was not because of his low status, nor because he was unrecognizable, but because his ability was limited to charging and killing the enemy.
