"What about people?" Inside the tavern, the captain of the guard, Hazo, asked Xiangfeng Sanniang.
Feng Sanniang is looking for something in the cupboard. She points to the table in front of her
Hazo took a look and asked, "which way?"
"Over there!" Feng Sanniang raised her head, "eh? Anyone here? Where are the people? "
She just found something. Why are the two dolls gone?
In the bustling street, the archdeacon, holding a little guy in one hand, walked quickly to his carriage.
Jingyun hugged Dabai in his arms and asked, "uncle, where are you taking us? Don't you wait for Dad? "
The cult leader's eyes were cold: "your father has something to do today, so he can't come."
"Oh." Jing Yun is a little disappointed.
Wangshu asked, "will dad come tomorrow?"
The Archbishop gave a vague hum.
All of a sudden, Hazo came out from the front door of the tavern with a guard. He saw the man and the child in front of him at a glance. Although they were just a few figures, they were enough for him to be sure that they were the people he was looking for.
"People in front, stop for me!" Hazo drank a lot.
The Lord's steps did not stop at all.
Hazo raised the volume: "stop! I don't want to hurt you, but if you are stubborn, don't blame me for being rude
The Archbishop grew up in this small town. He knows what the soldiers are like. If he had half the prestige of this group of people, the town would not be in chaos.
They are not local soldiers, but they disguise themselves as soldiers. At first sight, they have ulterior motives.
"Uncle, is that man calling us?" Wang Shu asked.
"Ignore them, get in the car!" The archdeacon had come to the carriage and let the two children get on. He untied the rope tied to the tree and sat on the outside seat. He waved the whip fiercely and the carriage went away!
Hazo saw that the other side didn't stop, on the contrary, the soles of his feet slipped away in the wind, and his eyebrows stood up in anger: "chase me!"
The guards turned over and got on the horse one after another and chased after the coach of the Lord.
The carriage couldn't run alone. The distance between Hazo and his party was getting closer. Hazo pulled out his machete and said fiercely, "stop, I'll spare you! Otherwise, I'm really impolite! "
Whew!
An arrow was nailed to the top of the carriage!
Wangshu and Jingyun opened their eyes strangely. Xiaobai and Dabai opened their mouths, showing their cold and dangerous eyes.
Archdeacon Da humanitarian: "there is a yellow rope on the top on your left. Pull it!"
Jing Yun sat on his left, looked up at the rope on his head, stretched out his little hand, and heard two clicks. It seemed that something had been opened, and a row of darts came out from the bottom of the car. The three guards were shot, screamed and fell from the horse.
Hazo dodged a dart with his machete, but his men lost three, which really angered him!
He clamped the horse's belly hard and waved a heavy whip down. The horse hurt and ran harder!
The rest of the people also made great efforts to catch up, and tried to bring the guy who hurt their companion to justice!
Hazo and another man catch up with the carriage, attack on both sides, and cut to the carriage with a machete.
"There is a red rope on the top on the right. Pull it."
Wangshu sits on the right side. She looks up, grabs the red rope, gently pulls it, boom, a basin of cold water pours on the Lord, who almost falls off the horse!
The Lord blew his hair: "yellow rope! Yellow rope
Wang Shu puffed his cheek and said, "you're talking about red."
Lord: do I have one?!
Wangshu pulled the yellow rope on the top, and two arrows came out from both sides of the carriage without warning, stabbing Hazo and another guard. The guard couldn't escape, so he was stabbed. The guard's hand loosened and fell from the steed.
On the other side, Hazo cut off the arrow, but there was another mystery hidden in the arrow. At the moment of breaking, a small silver needle flew out. The silver needle didn't hurt him, but it was nailed into the horse's stomach.
After a few steps, the horse suddenly felt soft and fell down.
Hazo also fell to the ground and rolled a few times to stabilize himself. But without waiting for him to take a breath, the steeds behind him came in droves. Everyone was struggling to catch up with the carriage. No one expected that Hazo and his mount would have such an accident. The steeds were in the middle of the road, and Hazo was on their way. They didn't even have time to slow down, He tightened the reins in a hurry. With great strength, the steed fell backward, one by one. Soon, the whole team of guards "fell down.".
Look at the carriage again, but it has gone far.
Hazo gritted his teeth angrily: "cunning thing! Better not fall into my hands! Or I'll skin you and eat your meat! Let you dieThe carriage drove away from the town, into the mountains, and in the mountains, around into the jungle.
The entrance to the jungle was covered up so that ordinary people could not find it.
The archdeacon let out a long sigh of relief.
In the afternoon, he and ADAR went into the mountains and collected a lot of rare medicinal materials which are rare in the Central Plains.
Wangshu and Jingyun jump out of the carriage and run to Qiao Zheng with their legs on
Qiao Zheng smiles: "come back? Are you hungry? "
They nodded together.
Qiao Zheng patted them on the small shoulders: "there are fruits picked by pearl in the room. You should eat some to cushion your stomach. Grandfather will cook immediately."
They went happily!
The LORD came over wet.
ADAR looked at him with a confused face: "master, did you take a bath?"
The archdeacon looked at him surreptitiously: "have you ever seen anyone take a bath without taking off his clothes?"
Qiao Zheng also saw him and wondered, "how did you do this?" "I'll make you a bowl of ginger soup," he said
Then he turned and went to the kitchen.
The kitchen was in a mess, but he had cleaned it up.
ADAR asked without expression: "I just want to know, why haven't you sold those two children? You're not soft hearted, are you
The archdeacon gave a disdainful sigh, lifted up his bright red lips and said, "will you be soft hearted for two stupid Ji's family? I just found something very interesting. If you go to the city to inquire about the news, I'd like to see the origin of these two little things. "
……
The cool wind whizzed through the dark room.
Hazo knelt on one knee, put his right hand on his left shoulder, and reported the incident to the person behind the screen in detail But for that guy's cunning, Hazo would have taken them down! "
Behind the screen, there was still the voice of male and female: "is it someone else's cunning or do you neglect the enemy?"
Hazo lowered his head.
The woman standing on one side looked at Hazo, looked at the screen and said, "I didn't expect that they came from the family. How did they come? Isn't it in the checkpoint? Why did you let them in? Is there a mistake? They're just local kids. "
Hazo said quickly: "I can't make a mistake. According to the hostess of the tavern, they are a pair of twins. They are very beautiful. Everyone has a ferret in their arms. I can be sure that they are the people we are looking for!"
The woman said: "if it's also a fake..."
"Well?" Behind the screen came a majestic voice.
The woman was silent.
"Who is the man who helped them escape today?" Asked the man behind the screen.
Harzo recalled the words of Feng Sanniang: "that man is a peddler. He sold them to Feng Sanniang, but he took the child away again."
The man behind the screen was silent for a long time, and then said, "didn't you say that when you captured those two children in the Central Plains, you met a man who could play a Dementor? Is this man the one who used to be
Hazo has never been to the Central Plains. The news he got was a secret letter from his pigeons. The letter said that he was a man in his twenties, tall and wearing a black cloak. He didn't mention his appearance. Today, he only saw a figure behind him. He was really wearing a black cloak, tall and tall. His age was asked by Feng Sanniang. It seems that he was also related to the letter It's a match on the piece.
"Nine times out of ten it's him." Hazo said.
"Is it really a man?" Asked the man behind the screen.
"Yes, I heard him. It's really a man's voice! The hostess of the tavern also confirmed that he was a man
"Man..." The man behind the screen sneered coldly, "go to the pub again, take the painter with you, even if you dig three feet, find him for me!"
……
The next morning, Qiao Wei had breakfast downstairs and went to the market as usual.
Tana city is even the capital of Tana people. It is prosperous and full of exotic customs. There are many shops on both sides of the street. Although it is not as luxurious as the capital city, it also has a taste of ancient simplicity.
The stalls on both sides sell fresh animal skins and medicinal materials. Ziyingcao, which is rarely seen in the Central Plains, is just a stall. The currency in circulation on the market is copper, silver and gold coins. The style is similar to that of brother Kong Fangxiong in the Central Plains, but the face value is different. One gold coin is exchanged for ten silver coins, and one silver coin for one hundred copper coins.
Before they set out, they actually brought a lot of gold, which they have been able to eat and squander for several lifetimes. Unfortunately, they only bought a few clothes here, and there is little left. There's no way. The people in Tana city are very rich. The steamed buns in the central plains are two Wen each. They get a silver coin here.
So Qiao Wei is very poor now. She has several silver coins in her purse. She can't even afford a roast leg of lamb.Qiao Wei touched the poor purse and decided to have a good eye.
After wandering around the market for a while, Qiao Wei found that the place where the notice was posted was full of onlookers. She was curious and went along with her. There was a picture of a man in a mask on the notice board. She was in her twenties and had a pretty face.
"Is that him?" Qiao Wei felt her chin suspiciously.
On one side of the portrait, there is another image of a bracelet.
Under the image, with a few lines of words.
Qiaowei didn't recognize the Tana script, so she asked the young man beside her: "what's the painting on this big brother?"
The young man said: "a prisoner sneaked into Helan Fort last night and stole the exquisite bracelet that he Zhuo gave to Xiao Zhuo ma. Now the family is offering a reward to arrest him. Those who provide clues will be rewarded with 500 gold. Those who catch him will be rewarded with 2000 gold."
Two thousand, which is a fortune even in Tana.
Her grandfather is so generous.
Qiao Wei squinted coldly. Not far away, there was a small platform set up by the guards, on which lay a thick pile of portraits of prisoners. The people could collect them by themselves, and Qiao Wei also received one.
When he returned to nassaibao, Ji Ming was discussing something with Ji Wushuang. When he saw her coming, Ji Wushuang gave her a strange look, and then stepped back.
Qiaowei eyebrows: "what did you just say? He looked at me strangely
Ji Mingxiu put away the note without any trace and said jokingly, "maybe you've been seducing me recently, so he can't read it anymore?"
Qiao Wei eyebrow tip a pick: "isn't he all day long to want to break up you and young madam?"? He should be happy if I seduce you. "
Ji Ming Xiu gently smile, diverged the topic: "what do you have in your hand?"
Qiao Wei opened the portrait and spread it on the table: "helanbao was stolen. The bracelet of Xibei goods was stolen. Now my grandfather Well, the young lady's justice offers a reward to arrest him. One piece of information will get 500 gold, and the person who catches him will get 2000 gold. Aren't we short of money? Anyway, being idle is also idle. Why don't you find him out and make a small profit? "
Lord: I'll raise children for you. You want to sell me!
Ji Mingxiu couldn't help laughing: "do you want to earn your grandfather's money?"
Qiao Wei said: "if you don't earn money, you will not earn it! What's more, I know this man. He's a little bastard who worked in collusion with Xun Qingyao last time. I haven't settled the account with him last time. It's just the same this time! "
Ji Mingxiu's eyes fell on the portrait: "that man? Is he a hermit? But it doesn't look like it's with those fakes. How did he find Ji's family? "
Qiao Wei ate a fruit: "I have to ask you, when did the Ji family offend so many hermits?"
Ji Mingxiu is more confused than Qiao Wei. Ji's family has nothing to do with the yins. If it's provoking, it's just that she married a little Zhuoma of the yins and got involved in the struggle of the yins: "I asked sennaying. Sennaying said that the senna family didn't send anyone to the Central Plains except him, so this person has nothing to do with the sennaying family. Now the fake little Zhuoma is catching him again. He is not with her. Who is he? "
Qiao Wei shrugged: "who knows?"
Ji Mingxiu said: "don't you mean he can't do martial arts?"
Qiao Wei recalled: "well I don't know lightness skills, and I don't have internal power. There are several moves
Ji Ming said: "it is impossible for a man without internal power and lightness skill to climb the Helan Fort as high as 100 feet."
Qiaowei thought, "maybe the gate went in?"
Ji Mingxiu shook his head: "the guard of Helan fort is more strict than that of the imperial palace of the Liang Dynasty. If he wants to go in, he must first have an identity that can go in. It's easy to find him along with this identity, and there's no need to go through so much trouble."
Qiao Wei seems to have an epiphany: "so you suspect that he didn't steal Xibei goods at all. Xibei goods want to catch him for another reason?"
Ji Mingxiu nodded: "it's not convenient for us to make it public. Haven't we been looking for each other's flaws? Well, maybe it is. "
Qiao Wei touched her chin: "it's reasonable to say that Xibei Huo is busy fooling the young lady's grandfather now. She should put aside all her previous grievances. Since she is so anxious to find this man, it must be this man who poses a threat to her. If she doesn't find him out, it's hard for her to sleep and eat!"
……
The taverns in the town became a mess after a "storm".
Feng Sanniang knelt on the ground and was put on her neck by a guard with a knife. She was shivering all over: "what I can say It's all said Let's go around me... "
Hazor said coldly, "where did that man go?"
Feng Sanniang said in fear: "I don't know I really don't know He moved out eight years ago After never coming back, I only saw him once recently, the time he came to sell his children... "
Hazo asked in a deep voice, "what other relatives does he have? Friends? "
Feng Sanniang said: "he had a father when he was a child, but his father left the family and didn't return for many years. I think he died outside!"Hazo's eyes were cold: "his father? You didn't mention that yesterday! "
Feng Sanniang shook three times: "that's because He was not born I thought it didn't matter... "
Hazo slapped his hand on the table and said, "if you know anything else, please come from the truth!"
Feng Sanniang trembled and said, "his father is a famous drunkard here. He only drinks every day and never does anything. He lives in poverty. One day his father goes out of the sea and comes back with a four or five-year-old boy. But his father is not good to him. He always beats him when he is drunk. I give him medicine several times. Later, he somehow knows that I am selling beads, Just He found me and sold himself
Sell yourself?
The corner of Hazo's mouth smoked: "sold to whom?"
Feng Si Niang said: "I sold it to a couple. They didn't have any children. At first, they were very good to him. After two years, they gave birth to one of their own. He pinched other people's children Almost strangled, the couple drove him away After that, he became a local ruffian in the town. After a few years, he left. After seven or eight years, I don't know where he went or what he did That's all I know. Please spare me, my Lord
Hazo grabbed her hair and put a machete around her neck: "really That's all? "
……
In the evening, ADAR came back to investigate the news and went to the woods behind the little thatched cottage with the Lord.
"All found out?" The Lord asked.
ADAR said: "three pieces of news. First, you are wanted all over the island. You are worth 2000 gold coins."
"Only two thousand?" The Lord's eyes were chilly. "I remember that dark Island killer, but it's worth 5000 gold."
ADAR: they killed 18 people.
"And the second news?" The archdeacon asked blandly, as if he didn't feel much about being wanted.
ADAR said: "the second news is that several foreigners have lived in the Seine family. One of them is a woman, claiming to be the real little Zhuoma. Mrs. Seine also took her to helanbao, but she was stopped by several elders."
Sure enough. The archdeacon hooked the lips of gouyanhong: "the third news?"
ADAR said: "fengsanniang didn't help it. She confessed your details. Our old nest was taken away."
The archdeacon's evil spirit flashed a cold light: "how are you brothers?"
ADAR said: "all escaped, no casualties."
The archdeacon said, "what about those old things?"
ADAR calmly said: "the fastest escape is them."
The archdeacon pinched a leaf with his hand, raised his bright red lips, and gave a smile: "the old nest of Duan Ben, this account is written down by me! You go and write a letter to Fort Seine... "
ADAR interrupted: "master, I can't write."
The archdeacon said coldly, "can I?"
ADAR was silent.
This is really a very sad topic.
The archdeacon waved his hand: "take the pen!"
The next day, Mrs. Senna sewed animal skins in the room. The guard brought a letter. Mrs. Senna opened it and saw that she was a little confused.
What's this, this painting about?
Two crooked clowns and eight monsters, two clowns and eight monsters holding two smaller ones in their arms, and a more crooked big clown and eight monsters standing on one side, big clown and eight monsters holding a Cucumbers, dripping with black water, are sent to the mouth of the eight clowns, as if to force them to eat. On one side, a gold coin is drawn, which says "one side" and "one side". Below, there is a woman who lacks strokes but can barely be identified.
"Look at that girl?" Mrs. Senna frowned.
The maid opened her mouth: "maybe Good looking? "
Good looking, Mrs. Ben can't understand!
Lady Senna had no idea. The maid pondered for a moment and said, "it's like a child's painting."
"I know that," said Mrs. Seine Can adults draw this ugly picture? Her nephew is better than this painting at the age of six!
The maid racked her brains and thought, "is it The two children didn't want to eat, so their father said, the cucumber is very fresh. It's just washed and dripping with water. Eat it quickly and finish it You're going to look great? "
"Who sent this strange thing?" Mrs. Senna put the paper on the table in disgust.
The bodyguard said, "it's for foreign guests."
Foreign guests? Mrs. Senna was puzzled, but she didn't keep the letter: "send it. She's in the backyard."
"Yes." The guard delivered the letter to Qiaowei.
……
On a hidden path in the jungle, ADAR asked the religious leader, "religious leader, will they really bring it?"
The archdeacon said, "of course."
He drew it very clearly - Jing yunwangshu was kidnapped by me, and my knife was covered with blood. Now this knife is on their necks and comes to see me with ten thousand ransom, otherwiseI can't draw it at the back, but I think we all know the meaning. After all, the kidnappers would say that.
"Did you leave an address?" Asked ADAR.
Lord of the church
I forgot.
……
Ji Ming repaired out of senna castle. This is the first time he went out in Senna castle. People here know his "whereabouts" like the palm of their hands. If he reveals his identity and sends it back to Daliang, he will not be able to cheat the king. Therefore, he will not go out easily unless he has to.
But today is the last resort.
He sent a letter to Feiniao, the disciple of shaxue League, and asked them to go to Ji's house to meet the two children. But the disciple of shaxue League sent back a message that the child had been picked up by him. Qiao Zheng went with the children. Before leaving, Qiao Zheng left a letter to Ji's house, explaining the way, so that Ji's family didn't have to worry.
However, he did not send others to pick up Jingyun and Wangshu.
It's very important. He doesn't dare to tell Qiaowei, for fear that she can't bear the blow of two children missing.
Judging from the date, Jingyun and his party have already arrived at the Yinzu without delay.
He released the wind seeking bird, which is familiar with the smell of Jingyun. The last time Jingyun fell into the water, the wind seeking bird also found Jingyun's whereabouts. As long as they really go to the Yin nationality, the wind seeking bird will be able to find Jingyun.
"Young master, the wind chaser is back!" Ji matchless pointed to the sky of the small color birds, said excitedly.
Ji Mingxiu held out his hand, and the wind chaser puffed his wings and fell on his hand. Then he flapped his wings and jumped into the sky.
Ji Mingxiu caught his eyes and grasped the reins: "follow up!"
……
In the city of Tana, Hazo was riding on a horse. He was not very happy. He took the guy's nest yesterday. Unfortunately, he didn't catch anyone, and he didn't get any money. He was so poor that he wasted so much effort!
A guard came and said to Hazo, "my Lord, our hounds have found the trace of the man and the two children!"
Hazo's eyes brightened: "seriously?"
The guard said confidently, "yes, my Lord, they are very cunning. We have released ten well-trained hounds, and only one of them has successfully detected their tracks."
Hazo laughed and said, "where are they?"
The guard said: "in a jungle on the South Island, we have done some tricks outside the jungle. No wonder we went wrong several times, but now those tricks have been removed by us."
"Well done!" Hazo patted him on the shoulder, looked back at his men and said, "if you catch them, you will all be my hero. Besides the reward, I have another reward. Brothers, go to the South Island!"
