Bab 752: Trap

Jihuang returned from Xuhou, the Port City, after gathering the information about Qiu Shuren whether he was supporting Lian Zoumu or not.

He entered the resthouse and found it was full. He went to the second floor, where Sheng Li had told him to come. He walked ahead in the corridor and saw a few merchants coming from the front. He lowered his head when hit by someone.

He apologized when the man pointed a dagger at his back. "Don't move, else this poisonous dagger will be inside you," the man whispered in his ear.

Jihuang tilted his head when the man threatened him. "I told you not to move," the man reminded him. "Now, follow me," he said and led Jihuang to the other side, opposite the place where Sheng Li had taken the shelter.

Jihuang knew that once he would be outside the resthouse, this unknown man would kill him. So, he planned to escape before that, but how?
