Shengjing Noble

Chapter 546 Sneaky

Su Lanyin explained: "We must throw this gunpowder into the underground river, but not all of it."

"What should I do?"

"Pour the gunpowder from the shells into the underground river, then return the shells to the storeroom where they won't be discovered."

Everyone's eyes lit up: "This is a good idea!"

"Also, according to the other party's plan, the mine will be blown up before dark tomorrow, so we have one night to escape from here."

"There are so many checkpoints here, how can we possibly escape?"

"I have my own way, but the premise is that you must not alert the enemy. Also, when you go back, tell as many companions as possible and remember not to be discovered by the guards."

The slaves looked at each other, then chose to believe her and nodded in agreement.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was time to go to bed.

The slaves all looked at Su Lanyin, and she and Fu Wuyang also stood up, quietly walked to the entrance of the cave, and looked out.

At this hour, the guards were already dozing off. After all, no slave dared to escape, and even if they wanted to, they didn't know the way out.

Only Su Lanyin deliberately remembered the return route when she came in.

But today was strange. No matter how lazy the guards were on weekdays, there would always be people on duty.

Looking at the empty outside, Su Lanyin felt vaguely uneasy.

Fu Wuyang saw her concerns and couldn't help asking, "Has she been discovered?"

"That's impossible. We haven't been exposed today. Even if we were discovered, they would immediately take action to capture the two of us. How could they do it quietly?"

"What you said makes sense, so should we continue the action?"

Su Lanyin hesitated. She looked outside and then turned back to look at the group of black slaves.

They all looked haggard and dishevelled, and just stared at her, waiting for her next instruction.

Su Lanyin couldn't stand their eyes full of hope and desire, and turned away with a suffocated heart.

She gritted her teeth and decided that no matter what, she would save everyone and escape with them.

So she nodded: "Let's go, take action!"

So, in the darkness, two people groped their way south, one in front and one behind, and behind them, there was a long team following.

Arriving at the cave where the woman was resting and finding a secluded place to hide, Su Lanyin whispered, "You guys wait here, I'll go over and take a look."

Then she crouched down and moved along the stone wall little by little, but found that there was no guard guarding the door.

Su Lanyin felt it was getting weirder, but now the arrow was on the string and had to be shot, so she immediately entered the cave.

"Here she comes! She's here!" Number 27 was the first to shout. She jumped up excitedly and rushed over to hug Su Lanyin.

The rest of the people also stood up, their eyes filled with excitement that could not be hidden.

Rong Niang asked, "Have you dealt with all the guards outside? Can we really escape?"

Su Lanyin said: "There are no guards outside, maybe they have all gone back to rest. Let's not waste time and set off immediately!"

The women nodded repeatedly and followed Su Lanyin to join the men one by one. In this way, almost all the black slaves came out.

A rough calculation shows that there are more than a hundred people.

This team is so large that if any guards pass by, it will definitely attract attention.

Su Lanyin thought about it and realized that there was no way out, so she could only quickly say, "Your mine is not far ahead. Everyone, take whatever weapons you can get and follow me as we charge out!"

No one dared to shout loudly, but they all nodded in agreement.

Then a group of people set off in such a large but stealthy manner.

After passing an open space, Su Lanyin suddenly stopped.

Not far ahead, a group of guards gathered. The leader was standing in the middle, talking to them.

This road is the only way they can take, they have no way to hide.

Fu Wuyang asked: "How about fighting them?"

Su Lanyin shook her head: "Don't do that yet, I think... I have a solution."

"any solution?"

"Do you have the guard's clothes with you?"

"Here." Fu Wuyang put the clothes in his arms just in case and gave it to her.

Su Lanyin quickly put on her clothes, took a deep breath, changed her expression, and rushed out in panic.

"Oh no! Oh no..."

She rushed to the group of guards and looked at the leader, who looked panicked and breathless.

"What are you yelling about? What happened? Are those black slaves causing trouble?"

The leader questioned angrily.

Su Lanyin looked around quietly. There were so many people here. If one of them lost his composure, the others would follow suit.

So, she deliberately said loudly: "I just went to the boss's room and knocked on the door for a long time but no one came. When I was about to leave, the door suddenly opened and I went in. Do you know what I saw?"

"What?" The leader looked puzzled. "Can you see ghosts?"

Su Lanyin said loudly with an exaggerated expression: "I saw a letter on the table. He ordered Master Guan to evacuate secretly tomorrow, and then ignite the last gunpowder to blow up the mine so that we can all die here!"

"What did you say?" The leader's eyes widened suddenly.

Then, the guards nearby also began to get restless.

"I said they decided to kill us too, otherwise, they wouldn't have suddenly started counting the gunpowder!"

"Yes, yes! What should we do? Why don't we run away quickly? We can't stay here and wait to die!"

"But the people guarding the agency are all people appointed by Master Guan, how can we get out?"

"The enemy has at least a hundred people, and we are only seventy or eighty. How can we fight them?"

……

Just when everyone was at a loss, Su Lanyin suddenly said, "Don't panic, I have good news for you. I have thought of a solution!"

"What method?" asked the leader.

Su Lanyin smiled, then immediately clapped her hands and shouted, "Everyone, come out quickly!"

From the shadows not far away, a group of black slaves rushed over.

The leader was about to roar when he saw this, but then he reacted and grabbed Su Lanyin and asked, "Why did you bring the black slaves here?"

"After I saw the letter, I brought everyone here because I was afraid we couldn't defeat the group of people guarding the checkpoint!"

After hearing her explanation, the leader thought for a moment and then asked, "Why should I believe you? It seems that you are also in charge of counting the gunpowder today? Besides, why do you look so unfamiliar? I don't think I have ever seen you before!"

Su Lanyin's eyes flashed with guilt, and then she said loudly: "It's so dark here, I can't see what everyone looks like, so it's normal that you didn't notice me, right?"

The leader nodded thoughtfully after hearing this: "What you said makes sense."
