Chapter Ninety-Seven: Who Said It Didn't Mean That
Enter the city from the crowded east gate of Yuezhou, pass through the bustling Shusheng Street, walk along the canal for a while, cross the stone bridge over the Toumi River, and turn west when you see the crooked neck tree next to the riverbank, along the way, the street is getting narrower and quieter.
When I walked up Fuping Street, it was already evening, and I don't know which alley wafted out the smell of food, as if there was still crying.
Bu'an turned his head to look at the entrance of the alley, and said in his heart that someone was probably dead. The people leading the horses behind him also looked into the alley one by one, and Monk Huiyuan chanted: "Amitabha." ”
The Yamen of the Seventh Division was closed, and Deng Xiaoxian shouted "Li Zhutou" at the top of his throat, only then did he know that Suosuo opened the door.
The blind man rushed forward in three steps and two steps, banged on the door, and shouted: "What are you doing with the door closed in broad daylight?"
On this trip out of the city, in addition to Li and her five-year-old and seven-year-old daughters, there was only a burly and sturdy Li Da left in the yamen.
As soon as the door opened, he saw Li standing neatly dressed in the door, and Bu An scolded: "Blind man, don't shout! Sister-in-law is not here!"
The blind man also knew that he was wrong, and muttered, "What are you doing with the door closed in broad daylight......
Li Shi shivered and glanced outside before saying, "Master, Buye, you are back...... At this time, there were kidnappers on the streets, and the slaves did not dare to open the door. ”
"What kind of kidnapping?" Luo Qingting was puzzled.
"Whoever takes the boys and girls captive to worship the Moon Palace, says that they will be burned alive. Li seemed to have frightened himself, and his face turned pale.
Bu An remembered that Linglongfang Hua Yihan had mentioned the news, and it seemed that it had affected Yuezhou, so he threw the reins to You Ping, who was gathering the horses, and asked casually while stepping into the yamen: "Where is Li Da?"
"Li Zhutou said that he was going to check ......," Li replied.
Bu An snorted: "Nonsense, is he himself or the head catcher in Yuezhou?"
Zhang Blind, Deng Xiaoxian and Luo Qingting walked into the courtyard one after another, and also learned from Bu'an, one by one.
After a while, Li went into the stove and lit a fire to cook. All the people of the Seven Divisions sat down in the courtyard, and the blind man grabbed a handful of candy from his pocket and distributed it to the two stepdaughters, as if he had completely forgotten the previous suspicions.
"The blind man is really blessed, he has two daughters in vain, and someone will give you a pension in the future!" Luo Qingting said with a smile.
The blind man didn't answer, and he couldn't hold back a smile on his face.
Qingshan took out two rattles out of nowhere and secretly stuffed them into the two little girls.
This woman really has a heart. Bu An leaned on the recliner and glanced at Qingshan before taking the white porcelain teacup brought by Su Su, taking the lid of the cup and taking a sip of the tea foam.
"When I came here just now, I heard someone crying, whose child was taken captive?" he shouted towards the stove.
Li wiped his sweat and replied: "That's the Zhang family, a son and a daughter are all gone...... The Lou family is fine, but the eldest son is gone......"
Bu An casually said "oh", and then he was stunned and shouted loudly: "Which Lou family?!"
“...... Open a library. Li Shi was startled by his suddenly raised voice, and replied cautiously.
With a "bang", the white porcelain teacup in Bu'an's hand smashed on the ground, and he ran out of his legs. All the people of the Seven Divisions cheered and all followed.
Zhang Blind shouted to the stove as he ran: "Why didn't you say it earlier, that Lou's house is Buye's senior sister's house!"
Li Shi was shocked when he heard this, and ran out in a hurry, but at this time, there were only the eldest and second girls left in the courtyard.
Bu An rushed out of the Yamen of the Seventh Division, and was meeting Li Da coming back from the street in a hurry.
"Did you find anything?" he asked.
Li Da frowned and said: "There are a few darts who are very suspicious, and the dart flag hung is from Huainan, but I don't listen to the dart master's accent like the two Huai people." I'm not in the public right now, and everyone in the government is avoiding me. ”
"Take me to find it!" Bu An pushed Li Da and ran, followed by everyone in the Seventh Division.
On the streets of Yuezhou in the evening, pedestrians looked sideways and watched a group of people rushing north.
......
......
At the north gate of Yuezhou, a black-on-gold dart flag embroidered with the words "Zhongzhou Dart Bureau" fluttered in the wind, and the carriage with the dart flag stopped in front of the north gate inspection.
The official glanced at him, opened the curtain of the carriage and took a look, and then waved his hand to signal for clearance.
Four carriages flowed out, and the dart master just now smiled and arched his hand at the official messenger and stepped onto the carriage.
At this moment, a group of people suddenly rushed out of the city, like a group of fleeing rogues. The inspector was about to stop him, but when he saw the face of the first person, he quickly pretended to be an idler and led the officers out of the way.
That person was the guest of honor of Lord Wang, the inspector of Beicheng, and he didn't dare to stop him.
"The dart cart stops!" Bu An rushed out of the city gate, but saw the dart carts running faster and faster, turned his head to the blind man behind him and said, "Can you see what is on the car?"
"Tong ...... Boy ......"
Before the blind man could finish speaking, Monk Huiyuan turned into a black shadow on the spot, and black lightning shot towards the galloping carriage.
In the blink of an eye, there was a loud "......quack", and the last car of the convoy suddenly tilted to the side and rushed into the farmland that had just been harvested next to the official road.
At the bottom of the car torn after the overturn, several children who were stopped were thrown out by inertia.
The inspector was also dumbfounded, and the leader was hesitating to ride a horse to chase after him, but Bu An snatched the horse over, turned over and galloped on the horse.
Hui Yuan had already cut the cables of the two carriages one after another, but he was weak and could not catch up with the first one.
At that moment, there was a sudden sound of bowstrings, followed by the terrible neighing of horses. In front of the fastest car, the white horse of the trailer fell down, and the dust rose up, and the carriage was thrown to one side, and when it overturned, a dart master in the carriage cut the cable holding the white horse with a sword.
I saw that the carriage turned around in place, and was dragged by the remaining black horse and galloped.
Bu An rode on the horse and turned his head to look, and saw a woman standing at the gate of the city, holding a longbow, it was Song Manqiu. She shot the galloping horse with an arrow, and then shook her head, probably too far away, and the second horse was too sure.
Bu An turned his head and shouted: "Monk, chase!" and followed Hui Yuan closely, and galloped forward together, he rode a horse, Hui Yuan only relied on two legs, and ran at a comparable speed.
Seeing that it was about to approach, a crossbow arrow suddenly shot out of the carriage, and Monk Huiyuan flew away in response, Bu'an slowed down his horse, jumped into the carriage.
"Buye!" everyone in the Seven Divisions shouted hoarsely, and they all rushed up like crazy.
As soon as Bu'an entered the carriage, he smashed into the darkness with a punch with all his might.
With a "click", a divine crossbow was smashed to pieces by him, followed by a stunned face that came into view.
Bu An grabbed the man's neck, and only then did he realize that the back of his hand was a blur of flesh and blood.
There was a sudden glimmer of light next to his ears, followed by a white swaying sword light, Bu An suddenly fell sideways, and in the next moment, the dagger he held in his left hand had already stabbed into the chest of the person holding the sword.
The gentleman hides his weapons and waits for the time to move! Who says it doesn't mean that?!
