She held her body strongly, and looked at Song Zhutou in front of her with firm eyes, the other party was stunned, and replied:

"Forty-eight years of Minghua."

"That's right, this money, Master Ben doesn't have to give it."

In the surprised eyes of the officials, Shunhua walked straight to the white-faced scholar, and said as he walked: "The murderer's first year of criminal record is in the seventeenth year of Minghua, which means that if he has already passed the crown at that time, he will be at least fifty-one years old this year. ”

After that, she squatted down and tore open the scholar's mask with one hand, and what was surprising was that under this mask like a crown of jade, there was actually an old face with loose skin and wrinkles.

Following the moonlight outside the window, everyone was surprised to find that the so-called white-faced scholar in front of them was actually an old man who was nearly sixty years old.

"Compared with these eyebrows, I can still see that he is the person on the wanted warrant, come on, when will the seven hundred and fifty taels of reward be given?" Shunhua turned his head and stretched out his hand in a daze, and the remaining finger marks on his neck were very penetrating.

Song Zhutou was stunned, took out the wanted warrant and carefully checked it, it was indeed a bit similar, "This... The head of the captor wants to take them back to check the handprints left in the case file, and they do match, and the silver will not be delivered later. ”

"Then thank you Song Zhutou."

"It's Ben who thanks you, by the way, where is the kid you said now?"

I almost forgot that the purpose of my visit was to rescue Xiaoxiao and the child.

Shunhua looked around, but did not find any trace of Xiaoxiao and the child, could it be that they were ...

A cold wind hit, the window was blown shut, everyone was shocked, Fu Mujin lit the oil lamp, and the whole room instantly brightened up a lot.

At this time, a large pool of blood flowing from under the bed shocked everyone present.

Song Zhutou lay on the ground and looked under the bed.

A bloodless face of a dead man was facing his mouth and nose, and he screamed in horror and retreated, "Dead, dead." ”

Shunhua's hanging hands trembled slightly, and his legs suddenly stopped obeying.

She knew she should go forward.

The back of Fu Mujian's hand touched her fingers slightly, and said softly, "Let Fu go and see, Miss Yue is missing today, and Fu has a lot of responsibility." ”

She said emotionally:

"In terms of responsibility, this little master is even bigger, I was too self-righteous, and I thought I could handle it well, but I almost died and hurt her."

Fu Mujin touched her head silently, but he couldn't say half a word of comfort.

Shunhua took a deep breath, straightened her chest, and walked to the bottom of the bed, she closed her eyes, bent down, and slowly opened her eyes to see, the white and glowing dead face, her chin was full of blood, she carefully saw the other party's eyebrows, it was him!

"Brother Fu, it's not Xiaoxiao, it's the second child of the inn, I only saw him when we entered the door this morning."

"What?"

"Ahh

The excited Shunhua hit the bed board headlong and made a loud noise, so painful that he couldn't get up for a long time.

"Brother Yan, are you okay?"

Fu Mujian, who was worried, hurriedly stepped forward and rubbed her head, looking at her with a pitiful and funny look.

"My head hurts, but where will they be?"

Shunhua covered the back of his head in pain, so painful that he couldn't think of anything, and felt a little dizzy in his head.

"Brother Yan?" Fu Mujin looked around, there was really no place to hide people, except for the wardrobe.

He held his breath slightly, walked to the closet, and opened it with one hand.

A pair of panicked eyes were looking at him, and Fu Mujin recognized the person in front of him as the child who insisted on being his slave.

"Is it just you? What about the Moon Girl? Fu Mujin asked softly.

The child gasped hard, suddenly burst into tears, and reached out to hug Fu Mujian.

He was stunned for a while, and then there was a crying child hanging on his body.

"......" Shunhua looked at them speechlessly, thinking to himself, Fu Mujin is quite a child.

But it's important to get down to business.

"Child, official, this little master helped you report, so I don't care about you stealing my money bag and stepping on my shoes, Xiaoxiao? There must have been a sister knocking on the door today, right? ”

I looked at the crying child, but I didn't hear her voice at all.

Shunhua stood up, walked over step by step, touched his head, and comforted: "You are great, you are very calm in front of bad people, but that sister is my friend, I am really worried about her safety, can you tell me, where is she now?" ”

Her voice was gentle, tears were rolling in her red eyes, and she probably couldn't accept the fact that someone she knew died in front of her.

The child turned his head and looked at the face in front of him, which was crying a little funny, full of flour, and looked very embarrassed.

He sniffed, put away his crying and said, "That... My sister was later rescued. ”

Hearing this, Shunhua raised his eyes in surprise, "Thank you, thank you for telling me." ”

At that moment, the boulder that was pressing on my heart was finally put down.

She had long guessed that Yue Xiaoxiao's identity was not simple, and the person who was willing to risk death to save her should not hurt her.

She reached out and wiped her tears, not wanting to be seen as a joke.

"Then please ask the two brothers to go with us to the yamen to testify."

Shunhua nodded, glanced back at Fu Mujian, the other party smiled happily, and followed with the child in his arms.

It wasn't until the middle of the night that Yue Xiaoxiao woke up in a daze, touched the back of her head, and opened her eyes.

There was a barren landscape in front of her, and she looked around in panic, but there was no one, and shouted, "Wurong, is it you?" ”

Hearing this, a nimble figure jumped down from the tree with ease.

"You rescued Princess Ben?"

Wurong nodded silently.

"Now that Princess Ben is awake, if Hua Lang finds out that Princess Ben is gone, he will be worried about me, send me back quickly."

Xiaoxiao looked at Wurong with a serious face.

How do you know, the cold-faced killer in front of him actually didn't move.

"What do you do? I can't send Xiaoxiao back. She tugged at his sleeve and asked.

"Your Highness, it's not suitable for you to continue to stay by her side, there are too many dangers around her, this time, I can't afford to save you, next time, last time, you almost..."

"Almost what?" Yue Xiaoxiao asked in astonishment.

"It's fine." Wurong closed his lips tightly and lowered his head.

Yue Xiaoxiao's expression suddenly became very serious, "Don't you tell Princess Ben, last time you were there, you didn't save me?" ”

She gathered around him and asked angrily, "Does the imperial brother know about this?" He doesn't know, if he does, how can he spare you. ”

He didn't move, he knew he couldn't respond.

"Are you talking? Xiaoxiao trusts you so much, you let Xiaoxiao down too much. ”

She cried and turned around, leaving the lonely Wurong far behind.

Under the moonlight, there was only one road in front of her, she cried as she walked, and slowly saw the people, and returned to Peacock Town again, when it was almost midnight.

Wurong followed her silently, escorting her back.

Yue Xiaoxiao crossed the threshold of the inn with a tired face, and at this time, the customer's boss was dozing at the door, and woke up with the slightest movement.

"Guest officer, you're finally back..."

The shopkeeper looked at the girl in front of him with old scars and a gloomy expression.

"Girl, when did you go out? The two guest officers were also the same, and they had not returned after going to the Yamen for so long. ”

"Which two?" She asked listlessly.

"It's the two sons who walked with you, speaking of which, this shopkeeper has really never seen such a good-looking son?"

"Good-looking?" She asked in despair, "Hua Lang? And the little white-faced doctor? ”

"I guess so, anyway, the shopkeeper doesn't remember who they are."

"Where did they go?"

"Yamen, it's not a secret, the shopkeeper just found out that the shopkeeper was dead, if it weren't for them, the shopkeeper wouldn't have known that there were two wanted criminals who abducted children in the store." The innkeeper said above.

"Then someone has caught it." Yue Xiaoxiao suddenly came to the spirit.

"Caught, the official messenger carried out the two wanted criminals and the dead dog Wang in front of so many people, everyone knows that there are dead people here, and it will be difficult for anyone to patronize this inn in the future."

The shopkeeper ran back to the counter with a gloomy face, dripping and drumbling.

Yue Xiaoxiao thought about it, rushed over, and said with concern: "Is anyone injured then?" ”

"Hurt, that rich-looking boy seems to be holding his head all the time."

Hearing this, Yue Xiaoxiao asked worriedly: "They like to knock on people's heads the most, I don't know, how is Hualang now?" Is it serious? ”

"This shopkeeper is not clear, I hope they will come back from the yamen as soon as possible, the shopkeeper is sleepy."

With that, the shopkeeper yawned heavily.

Yue Xiaoxiao sat on the threshold, intending to wait for them to return.

"By the way, is the roast chicken delicious?"

"Roast chicken? What roast chicken? ”

"The shopkeeper never thought that the young man who was traveling with you liked to eat roast chicken so much, he kept ordering, ordering, and eating all the chickens in the entire cage of the store."

"What?"

The angry Yue Xiaoxiao pushed open Shunhua's door and saw Xiao Thirteen lying on the bed and sleeping.

"Hurry up for Xiaoxiao, get up immediately, do you hear me?"

Xiao Thirteen turned over, yawned, and looked at the person, "Who is it?" ”

He opened his eyes in a daze, and it was pitch black in front of him, and he heard only a female voice in his ears.

"Who is it, who broke into the king's bedroom in the middle of the night?"

"Dead face, are you sleeping stupid, is this your dormitory? This is the inn. ”

Yue Xiaoxiao lit the oil lamp, pointed to a large table of roast chicken, and asked angrily: "Who knows the truth that Chinese food is hard work, do you understand?" Hua Lang was just stolen from the money bag, and I don't know if the rest of the plate is enough, you still spend money so much, you can't finish eating, and you still call so many roast chickens. ”

"Yes, yes, this king doesn't know, it's the king's mistake." Little Thirteen yelled loudly and sat up from the bed.

Suddenly, Yue Xiaoxiao kicked over a wooden barrel, and only then did she notice that the room was filled with a sour smell.

"What is this?" She pinched her nose and said with a look of disgust.

"That's the king vomited, in order to ask the whereabouts of the child, the king ate a few roast chickens, eat vomit, okay?"

Hearing this, Yue Xiaoxiao didn't say anything.

A man sat there sulking.

"Alright, go back to your room and stay away from this king, this king... And sleep. So saying, he covered himself with the quilt and lay down on his side.

Yue Xiaoxiao looked at the back and asked in a low voice, "Isn't your misogyny still well?" When Xiaoxiao touched you just now, didn't you faint? ”

Xiao Thirteen immediately sat up straight and said in surprise: "Could it be that this king's illness is really cured?" ”

"Hey, ugly bastard, come and touch this king's face."

Yue Xiaoxiao couldn't get used to hearing this tone of being ordered, "Xiaoxiao, don't want to." ”

"Come here, this king orders you to come and touch this king!"

At this time, Shun Hua, who had just returned from the yamen, and Fu Mujian, who was carrying the child on his back, had just arrived at the door, and they heard the words of the tiger and wolf in their ears.

I couldn't help but pause, and I didn't dare to go in.

"Ouch, annoying."

Yue Xiaoxiao slipped over like a dead snake and an eel, slapped Xiao Thirteen in the face with one hand, and accidentally slapped him.
