Li Yan almost fainted, he didn't know what kind of person Yizhimei was, but when the red lady fell into the hands of others, most of them had no good fruit to eat.

At this moment, Xiaoqing ran to the wall and pulled out a dagger from it, with a note on it. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

The two of them were so anxious that no one noticed.

Li Yan unfolded the note and looked at it, and there were a few red words written on it: Chenshi, ten miles north of the city, mountain temple. Come alone.

No need to ask, Yizhimei stole the red lady and asked him to meet there, it seems that he may want to extort some money. Li Yan looked at the time, it was almost time, it was too late to prepare, and besides, people had to go alone, if they brought soldiers and servants, it was likely that the other party would tear up the ticket. Li Yan must not take this risk. Fortunately, he has no hatred with Yizhimei, most of them just ask for money, Li Yan said a few words to Xiaoqing, asking her to keep it a secret, don't tell it to others, and go back by herself.

Li Yan didn't have much gold and silver around him, and he didn't know how much Yizhimei wanted, so he didn't bring it. He wanted to listen to what Yizhimei had to say, and then he would come back and borrow money from Bai Qi.

After packing up his horses, Li Yan rode out of the city and went straight to the mountain temple in the north of the city.

This small temple was built on a hill and was so dilapidated that even pedestrians who had nowhere to stay were reluctant to live in it. It's dusty and cobwebs.

Li Yan came to the temple, looked around, there was no abnormality, let alone a figure, his heart was uneasy, he tied the horse to the small tree outside the temple, and looked into the temple, the temple gate had collapsed, and he could see the inside directly.

The temple was quiet, as if there was no one.

Li Yan shouted: "Yizhimei Daxia, are you nearby?" ”

No one answered. Li Yan raised his legs and walked into the small temple.

Looking up, the mountain god enshrined above the god case, only half of his face and half of his body are left, and he is dancing with his teeth and claws, with a majestic demeanor, and the god case is full of rats, and the ground is full of broken mud blocks, and a few broken ** have been so dirty that they can't see their original color.

He looked around, but he didn't find the red lady, and he didn't see a plum.

When he was puzzled, he suddenly heard footsteps behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a person standing at the entrance of the temple, short in stature, dressed in black, wearing a bamboo hat, a black scarf covering his face, and no weapon in his hand.

No need to ask, this is a thief.

Li Yan arched his hand: "Dare to ask Your Excellency, is it a plum hero?" ”

The man didn't answer, and wrote on the ground with a branch: "Are you Li Yan?" ”

Li Yan nodded: "It's exactly below." Dare to ask where is the Red Girl? You stole her out, how did you place it? Is she okay? What do you really want? ”

He asked several questions in a row, but the plum didn't answer a word, just slowly retreated.

Li Yan thought he was leaving, so he hurriedly chased him out of the temple and shouted, "Yizhimei, don't go, I haven't seen the red girl yet!" ”

As soon as he ran out of the temple, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, and when he looked around, he was immediately taken aback.

It turned out that at this time, outside the mountain temple, more than a dozen people appeared, all of whom seemed to be ordinary people, and they had surrounded him, and the leader was actually known by Li Yan.

Scofa!

That's right, the person who came was Shi Kefa, a guerrilla general under Hong Chengchou.

At this time, although he was wearing ordinary people's clothes, his momentum was still not to be underestimated. Besides, Li Yan and him had a big battle under Huayin City, why did Shi Kefa come here at this time?

Li Yan asked the doubts in his heart.

Shi Kefa smiled, he knew that Li Yan didn't know martial arts, and there was no one else to help here, so he waved his hand and ordered his sergeants: "Tie him up." ”

Several Ming soldiers went over, surrounded Li Yan, pressed him down, and tied him up.

Li Yan didn't struggle, he knew that it was useless for him to struggle, and he came alone, it seemed that he was following someone else's way. That masked man is probably not Yizhimei, Shi Kefa used this idea to trap him.

Seeing that Li Yan was tied up, Shi Kefa gave the order to get on the horse and leave.

When everyone got on their horses, an official soldier put Li Yan on Li Yan's own horse and prepared to hurry.

At this moment, the masked man stopped Shi Kefa's horse's head and motioned to him to speak. Shi Kefa told his men to wait, jumped off his horse, and walked into the mountain temple with the masked man.

They whispered something to no one to hear, but it was obvious that the masked man was so excited that his whole body trembled, and he finally grabbed Shi Kefa's sleeve. Shi Kefa shook his head slightly, arched his hand to him, said sorry, and then strode out of the door, ordered his sergeants, escorted Li Yan, and rode north.

Li Yan was placed on horseback, looked at the masked man, and shouted, "What happened to the red girl?" What happened to her......"

The masked man stood in front of the temple gate as if he had not heard it, and did not answer.

At this time in Meixian County, Xiaoqing is also on pins and needles, Li Yan has been out of the city for a long time, and she has not come back, she is restless in the lobby, and finally has to return to the residence of the red lady to see if there are any clues.

As soon as she entered the door, she suddenly heard movement in the bedroom, hurriedly pulled out a short knife, and gently walked into the bedroom to take a look, there was no one, listen again, the movement came from under the bed.

Xiaoqing clenched the knife, walked to the side of the bed gently, lifted the curtain of the bed suddenly, looked down, and was startled.

Inside, there was a man lying with his hands and legs tied to the legs of the bed, his mouth gagged, and he was moving his limbs around at this time, kicking the bed and making a sound.

This person is not someone else, it is actually a red lady.

Xiaoqing hurriedly cut the ropes on her hands and feet with a knife, the red lady rolled out of the bed, stood up, took out the silk scarf in her mouth, threw it on the ground, stomped her feet twice, and scolded in her mouth: "This stinky thief, if this girl catches him, she must pull out the teeth in his mouth." ”

Xiaoqing was surprised and delighted, and hugged the red lady: "Sister Hong, you're fine, you haven't been stolen......"

The red lady frowned and said, "I was stolen? What are you talking about? ”

Xiaoqing said: "Li Gongzi and I thought that guy stole you, and Li Gongzi had already gone out of the city to find you." With that, she handed the note nailed to the wall to the red lady.

The red lady looked at it and was stunned for a moment: "I wasn't stolen out of the city?" Why did the stinky thief ask Li Gongzi to go to the mountain temple? ”

Xiaoqing said: "Could it be that someone is trying to trick him?" ”

The red lady had an ominous feeling: "It's not good, I'm afraid there is a conspiracy, let's go find him." ”

The two of them mounted their horses, went out of the city, and went straight to the mountain temple.

On the way, the red lady said her own thing, it turned out that last night, when the red lady was keeping vigil, suddenly the door of the inner hall opened, the red lady thought that a plum was coming, so she lay down by the door and waited, waiting for him to show up, and then took him. But after waiting for a while, no one came in, the red lady was puzzled, and she felt that there seemed to be some movement on her head, she looked up, only to see a bamboo pole on the top of her head, and before she came back to her senses, a puff of smoke erupted from the bamboo pole, which was spraying on her face, and the red lady immediately felt that the world was spinning, and she fell to the ground and was stunned.

When she woke up, it was already dark, and she found herself tied under her bed, and then she made a move, trying to get someone to save her.

As for what happened to Li Yan, she didn't know anything about it. Now things are very clear, Yizhimei did this to lure Li Yan to the mountain temple.

The red lady was very worried, she faintly felt that something bad would happen.

The two of them hit the horse like flying, rushed to the front of the mountain temple, jumped off the horse to take a look, there was no one outside the temple, and there were no horses, and when they went inside, it was empty, and Li Yan did not know where to go.

The red lady was anxious, and looked around in front of and behind the temple, but found nothing abnormal.

At this time, Xiaoqing shouted, "Sister Hong, come and see." ”

The red lady ran to Xiaoqing's side, only to see her pointing to a tree outside the temple and saying, "Someone has tied a horse here." ”

The red lady took a closer look, and sure enough, there was a circle of marks on the tree. At this time, it was spring, and the trees had grown new green skin, and the traces of that circle were still very new, which were just left.

Needless to ask, Li Yan has tied a horse here, but where has he gone?

The two of them looked carefully again, and found that there were a lot of horseshoe prints on the grass in the north, the two of them had been walking the rivers and lakes for a long time, and all kinds of people on the rivers and lakes had dealings, and they also knew a little about the tracking technique, and they looked carefully, these horseshoe prints were very messy, roughly calculated, there were no less than ten horses, and the hooves were the same.

The red lady fought a cold war in her heart, the same farrier, only the war horses of the same army can have. And Bai Qi's men and horses are messy, and many horses are taken from different counties, and Bai Qi will never make such a joke with Li Yan.

A thought suddenly popped up in her heart, it was the official army who captured Li Yan.

The two had no time to return to the city to report their confessions, and they chased down the horseshoe prints.

At this time, Shi Kefa had already walked dozens of miles with his men and horses. Li Yan was held sideways on the horse, his stomach was downward, and he was about to vomit. Fortunately, Shi Kefa saw it, and he was afraid that something would happen to Li Yan, so he asked Li Yan to change his position and let him sit on the saddle. An officer pulled the reins of the horse, in case Li Yan couldn't control the horse and fell down.

A team of men and horses ran for a long time, and Shi Kefa ordered to rest.

Everyone entered a forest, and Shi Kefa hugged Li Yan down and let him sit under the tree to rest.

Li Yan asked, "General Shi, if you don't kill me, where are you going to take me?" Shi Kefa smiled and said: "If I wanted to kill you, I would have killed you a long time ago, but Lord Hong said that you are still useful, and I must take you back." Li Yan sneered: "Do you think I will surrender?" ”

Shi Kefa said: "Whether you will descend or not, that's not my concern." I'm just going to bring you back. The plan I offered to Lord Hong to capture the thief and capture the king was also a success, and if I didn't catch Bai Qi, it would be worth the trip if I caught you. ”

Li Yan said: "That Yizhimei is fake, right?" Shi Kefa said: "No, it's true. This person is a plum. Li Yan said: "I just didn't expect that Yizhimei would listen to your command." ”

Shi Kefa shook his head: "Yizhimei won't listen to me, it's just that Yizhimei's father is in prison, and Yizhimei listened to my orders to lure you out alone in order to save him." Otherwise, there are a lot of people around you, and there are not many people I bring, so I really can't deal with you. ”
