Chapter 165: Out of the City
Lingxi and the monkey walked in the crowd, the monkey in her arms glanced around, and there was no Hong Peng and the others, and immediately became bolder, snorted, and jumped on Lingxi's shoulder, and then opened his teeth and claws at passers-by, so he was not arrogant.
When passers-by saw the fierce appearance of this monkey, they were not annoyed, they just smiled on their faces, but pointed in their hands.
Lingxi saw passers-by constantly looking at her, her face was shy and dry, and she couldn't wait to quickly find a place where no one was there to escape from the predicament in front of her.
The monkey on his shoulder was still eager to try, and Lingxi thought that the people of the Xu Mansion might not be far away, if they ran into it, wouldn't the two of them "fugitives" not be able to leave.
Thinking of this, his face was shy and anxious, and he hurriedly patted the little monkey on his shoulder and signaled it to be quiet.
"Slow loris, don't make trouble, be careful of being discovered!"
As if he understood Lingxi's words, the monkey hurriedly stopped the movements in his hand and stayed quietly on Lingxi's shoulder. Seeing that it was peaceful, Lingxi couldn't help but sigh, quickened his pace, and walked towards the direction where the city gate tower was.
After a while, a man and a monkey came to the city gate.
Looking ahead, but seeing the traffic, there are many figures, businessmen, poor peasants, warriors and monks, all following the rules and going out.
On both sides of the city gate, many guards in armor stared at everyone with burning eyes, like a few hungry wolves, eyeing pedestrians, and if they found anything unusual, they would pounce on them.
Lingxi glanced at the guards, hesitated, and at this moment, a person quickly walked from the crowd to one of the guards, and this person was the leader of the guards, who whispered in the ear of the guard leader, and then took out a portrait scroll and handed it to the guard leader.
The leader of the guards glanced at the person in the painting, his face was in trouble, and he felt that the man had stuffed a bag of gold coins, instantly recalled, with a smile on his face, nodded to him, and then quietly put away the gold coins, and said to the guards behind him: "Everyone have a sharp eye, if you find an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, report it to me immediately!"
When everyone received the order, their eyes, which had been feeling lazy, suddenly became sharp, and when they saw anyone who was suspicious, they immediately stopped them for interrogation.
That person was Hong Peng, he had just gotten the news that the girl was found on the street of Chengmen Street, and he immediately found someone to inform Jiang Chenfeng, and he didn't dare to slack off, so he took the lead in coming here, bribing the city gate guards and asking them to help find someone.
Just in case, he sent another pair of men out of the city gate to investigate.
The guards of the city gate are not effective The three major families from the Heavenly City, but they know their influence in the city, and there is no one in front of them who does not know Hong Peng, after all, the "Qian Lai Zhuang" casino is also a place where they can be idle and free.
Lingxi, who was not far away, looked at Hong Peng, his eyes flashed with surprise, he didn't know what he was doing here, but Lingxi confirmed one thing, but as soon as he arrived, the entire team out of the city became slow, and the guards who were originally very lazy became active at this time, whether they were searching passers-by.
The little monkey on Lingxi's shoulder also saw Hong Peng in the distance, and immediately began to dance again, Lingxi panicked for a while, for fear that it would cause something, and immediately pressed the monkey on his shoulder, so that it couldn't move, and flashed into a corner on the street with it.
And at the moment when they disappeared, Hong Peng seemed to sense something, and immediately looked towards them, but saw that the crowd was endless, and only the street vendors were hawking. I was puzzled for a moment, and I secretly shook my head and said nothing.
Lingxi was angry and annoyed with the monkey in front of her, and its activity was not as lazy as it was when she saw it in "Qian Lai Zhuang".
"I know who that person is! But you also pay a little attention to your behavior, if we are exposed to walking, I can't walk, and you are also arrested back to "Qian Lai Zhuang", it will be very bad!" Lingxi's face was not angry, staring at the monkey who still wanted to scream, the monkey seemed to feel Lingxi's mood swings, his eyes were rolling around, and he immediately lowered his head and stopped moving.
When Lingxi saw its appearance, she thought to herself if she was too strict with it just now, and suddenly felt guilty, stroked its head with her hand and said, "Slow loris, I'm sorry, I spoke a little heavier just now, I can't go back to that place!"
As soon as I thought that if I returned to Xufu, the hope of finding Qing Ming would become very slim, and I thought that Qing Ming's life and death were unknown, and sadness came from it.
When the little monkey saw her like this, he hurriedly jumped off her shoulder, and disappeared into the crowd at once.
"Slow loris, where are you going?" Lingxi watched the monkey disappear in front of her, and her heart was even more anxious, but she didn't dare to shout loudly.
That's it, Brother Qingming left me, and now the slow loris doesn't pay attention to me, thinking of this, tears can't stop rolling in his eyes.
After a few breaths, Lingxi saw a figure suddenly jump on her shoulder, her face was frightened, her steps couldn't help but step back, and when she saw that the person who came was the little monkey, the excitement on her face was overflowing.
Before Lingxi could speak, she saw the little monkey dancing with her hands, and it jumped down and took Lingxi's hand to another place.
"Slow loris, where are you taking me?" Lingxi said anxiously.
After a short time, they came to a place downstairs, and saw two carriages parked in front of the door, the first carrying people and the latter carrying goods.
The little monkey looked at Lingxi and then at the two carriages, and immediately gestured.
"You're telling me to get into that wagon?" Lingxi understood the little monkey's intentions, and the little monkey nodded.
Lingxi was secretly surprised, I don't know if this trick will work, the guards at the city gate will stop the inspection whenever they see a carriage, but when they see the slow loris telling themselves to hide in so hard, they are puzzled, but they still do it.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, he hid in a wooden box in the carriage behind. Lingxi hid inside and found that the wooden box was full of fruits, Lingxi didn't think much about it, because she was physically and mentally tired, she fell asleep after a while.
In her sleep, Lingxi heard a vague voice like a whisper in a dream. I don't know how long it took, Lingxi felt her body move, and she knew in her heart that the carriage had started.
Only then did I wake up from a big dream, and through the gap in the wooden box, I saw the crowd on both sides of the crowd constantly retreating.
After a quarter of an hour, the carriage stopped again, and Lingxi only heard a few voices in his ears.
"It turned out to be the Chen family, Chen Dashao!" The person who spoke was the leader of the guards.
"Guan Tianhai, what are you just doing, why are you holding us back?" Lingxi heard an angry voice again.
"Hehe, I still look at Chen Da Shao Haihan, we are acting on orders, please give us a look!" Guan Tianhai said with a smile on his face.
Hearing this, Lingxi chuckled in her heart, if they checked, wouldn't she be exposed, and when she didn't know what to do, there was another voice outside.
"Isn't this the head of 'Qian Lai Zhuang', why are you here?" Chen Yu smiled on his face, looked at Guan Tianhai and his guards, and instantly understood, "It turns out that you helped the Xu family's order!"
"It doesn't matter whose order you take, the important thing is that the exchange is beneficial!" Guan Tianhai didn't care about Chen Yu's words.
After hearing this, Chen Yu smiled on his face and threw a bag of things towards Guan Tianhai.
"Hahahaha...... Chen Dashao is really a cheerful person, how can there be a reason not to let him go!" After Guan Tianhai finished speaking, he glanced at Hong Peng again, "Manager Hong, what do you think?"
Hong Peng thought for a moment and nodded, firstly, the contradictions between them and the Chen family were quite deep, and finding Lingxi was a secret mission, so the Chen family could not be allowed to see a clue.
"The thief who stole my 'money to come to the village' will definitely not hide in Chen Gongzi's car, and will not disturb Chen Gongzi's itinerary!" Hong Peng said deliberately.
When Chen Yu heard this, his face was stunned for a moment, and then he showed a gloating look, and he didn't forget to strike a blow before leaving.
"That thief is really powerful, he can actually come out of the 'money to the village', if I catch him another day, I will definitely invite him to drink and ask him how he did it, hahaha......" Chen Yu finished speaking and got into the car.
Hong Peng's face was a little ugly at this time, the face of the Chen family's dumb son was really unpleasant, if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely teach him a good lesson. Hong Peng thought to himself in his heart.
And Chen Yu's two carriages creaked towards the outside of the city gate.
