After evacuating the Hou Mansion, I fled famine with my pregnant belly

Chapter 700 Suspicious Person
"Mr. Lin, have you found anything?" Lin Zheng has been hanging around the city gate frequently recently, and the guards here all know him.

"Have you checked the household registration of these two people?"

Lin Zheng asked.

"I have checked it and found nothing abnormal."

"Show me your household registration."

Lin Zheng walked slowly closer, his eyes swept over the two of them like a torch. His gaze paused on the woman's pale face for a few moments before he spoke in response to the sound of the book.

"Please look, sir." The scholar turned around with a humble smile on his face.

Lin Zheng took the household registration and looked through it for a few seconds. He did not find any problems with it.

Lin Zheng turned his gaze to the two of them again.

"What disease does your mother have?" Lin Zheng asked with concern, but his steps cleverly blocked their possible escape route.

The scholar remained humble and polite.

"To answer your question, my mother caught a cold and had a high fever. The doctors in the village were helpless, so I rushed to the city to seek medical treatment."

"Oh?" Lin Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly.

"It just so happens that I know a little bit about medicine, why don't you let me take a look first."

Without waiting for the scholar to respond, Lin Zheng stepped forward and reached out to take the woman's pulse.

The woman's reaction was faster than his. She slapped Lin Zheng with her wrinkled old hand. The power of her palm was so fierce that it was definitely not what a person with a long-term illness should have.

"Sir, be careful." The people around exclaimed.

Lin Zheng was already alert, so when the woman attacked, he reacted immediately and quickly dodged. He just barely managed to avoid it. He was shocked to find that the woman's strength was above his.

"What are you standing there for? Take them down quickly."

The surrounding soldiers also noticed something was wrong and gathered around.

"Tell me! Who are you?"

The scholar and the woman looked at each other and made a decision. The scholar changed his previous humble attitude, pulled out a short blade from his sleeve, and stabbed Lin Zheng's throat.

Lin Zheng drew his sword from his waist to block. "Struggle!" Lin Zheng took a few steps back under the impact of his internal force.

The scholar had no intention of fighting. Taking advantage of this gap, he disappeared into the crowd.

Lin Zheng couldn't stop it at all.

At the same time, the frail woman was in a strong posture, and her old fingertips were pinching a silver thread as thin as a hair, and she was wrapping it around the soldiers who surrounded them.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

As the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground was heard, the woman seized the opportunity, rushed out of the encirclement, and disappeared into the crowd.

"damn it."

Lin Zheng swore seldom.

"Sir, should we continue to chase them?" the guard standing next to him asked nervously.

"The strength of those two is unfathomable. Chasing them would only lead to death. Strengthen your vigilance, and pay special attention to the elderly, children, and women. If necessary, make physical contact. No matter how you disguise yourself, as long as you make contact, you will definitely find clues."

Lin Zheng gave a few instructions and turned to go into the city. He wanted to tell his sister the news here that people from Xida Road might have already sneaked in.

Lin Zheng walked hurriedly, leaving the team following him behind, his heart full of worry.

The scholar looks young, but his strength is so powerful. If more people sneak into the city, the city will probably fall into panic.

Soon, he arrived at Jiuyou Palace. Lin Zheng walked straight into the hall, where Feng Jiuyou and others were drinking tea.

Seeing that he looked hurried, everyone immediately stopped talking.

"Zheng'er, why are you in such a hurry? What happened?" Feng Jiuyou asked.

"Someone from the Western Continent has broken through the defense line."

Lin Zheng briefly recounted what happened at the city gate. After listening to it, everyone's faces instantly became serious.

"Go call your father." Feng Jiuyou said to Ruanruan who was playing nearby.

"Okay!" Ruanruan ran out quickly.
