Chapter 298: Ups and downs

"Okay, come with me." Han Dongjun took Han Zhongquinoa's hand and went to the vegetable garden.

The two men searched all the places in the yard and found no pigeons, so they hurriedly ran to the road outside the yard to look for them, and went around the fence, but found no dead pigeons, but they saw a shoe in the ditch by the roadside, the water was very shallow, and the shoe was stuck by a big stone, and it did not get wet. Han Dongjun hurriedly bent down and picked up his shoes, trembling with fright.

Han Zhongqui took the shoes and said, "The shoes are full of blood, whose shoes are these?" It looks like a big-footed man's shoes, look at your appearance, could it be Han Donglang? ”

"Exactly, Han Donglang was injured and fought with the kidnappers, not his opponent, but he was kidnapped, what should I do? I don't know if I'm alive or dead. ”

Han Zhongquan looked up at the wall and said: "The masked cloth strip is hanging on the wall above, I took it down just now, the kidnappers escaped from here, they didn't enter or exit through the gate, they are good at martial arts, do you estimate if there is someone else?" ”

Han Dongjun looked at the shoes and said, "Ren Youlan's martial arts are super strong, it's not a problem to kidnap a Han Donglang, and no one else has the guts." After all, Han Donglang is a minister, and his martial arts are not bad, only Ren Youlan, who is bold and not afraid of heaven and earth, can do it! ”

"Oh, for the time being, I think it's Ren Youlan, and the truth will wait until the day the case is solved. I searched all around here, but I didn't find any dead pigeons, so I had to go to the palace, and you can wait for me at home. ”

"Oh, then you can go and come back as soon as possible, lest I wait for it."

Han Zhongquan nodded, returned to the yard, pulled out the horse, and galloped away.

Han Dongjun was bored at home, helplessly pacing around in the backyard, looking up at the leaves on the cypress tree, there seemed to be white hair hanging on the leaves, hurriedly ran over, jumped to the top of the tree for life, stretched out his hand to pull away the leaves, suddenly saw a pigeon embedded in the branch, hurriedly took it down, squatted on the ground to untie the note on the pigeon's feet, and began to read, it turned out to be a note written by Han Zhongqui to Qian Xuanxuan, asking him to come to his house. Who shot the flying pigeon? It seems that people around the house are watching, and I can't live at home. I am not an official of the court, so why should I live in fear? Either go back to Qionglong City and tell Yu Wensi that his personal safety is threatened, so he simply quit and don't do it.

How do you ensure your personal safety? It seems that if you want to investigate their case, they will take their own lives. While he was still meditating, he suddenly heard the door open and someone asking, "Is there anyone in the room?" ”

Han Dongjun didn't reply, hurriedly put down the pigeon and came to the front yard, looked up and saw a stranger shouting, and hurriedly asked, "Who are you?" Who to come to? ”

"I was entrusted to come to you, and a man named Han Donglang gave me a letter and asked me to send it to you. I don't know how to read, he didn't have money to pay for the journey, so he told me that if the letter was delivered to a person named Han Dongjun, he asked me to ask Han Dongjun for the travel fee and give me ten cents of silver, is it okay? ”

Han Dongjun stared at him and asked, "How did you get this letter, wait until I read it, whether it is Han Donglang's handwritten letter." ”

"I went to pull herbs on the mountain of Shaguang, and suddenly I heard someone shouting for help, I followed the shouting, and saw a small wooden house, and found that the sound came from the small wooden house, and immediately went to check. There is a hole in the cabin, I saw a person's head shaking at the mouth of the cave, I approached the entrance of the cave and asked him what his name was, he said that his name was Han Donglang, he was kidnapped in this hut at your house last night, after being locked up there, his kidnapper disappeared, he asked me to write a letter to him with a pen and paper, and asked me to bring it to you, I immediately ran home to find the pen and paper and then went back to the mountain, he wrote the letter and asked me to send it here to you, I am illiterate, but my memory is very good, I remember the address of your home, and then the letter was sent to you, you give me the fare, I'll go back to collect the medicine right away. ”

Han Dongjun hurriedly said, "How about you take me to save him, and then give you a tael of silver?" ”

"Okay, but keep me safe. I make a living by picking herbs, and I have an old mother who is seventy years old at home, and mother and son depend on each other for their lives, and I take you to save him, I don't know if his kidnappers have returned to the mountains, I am a little scared. ”

"It's okay, if the kidnappers are over there, we will keep an eye on them not far away, don't be discovered by them, don't risk saving him, you want to be safe, I want to be safe, there is only one life, who wants to play with life?"

"That's good, Shaguang Mountain is just behind the Temple of Mercy and Grace, the mountain is not high, and it is enough to walk for half an hour. If you had a horse, it would be faster and better. I've put my medicine basket home, and I'm leaving? ”

"I'll take what I'm eating and I'll go."

"yes, okay."

Han Dongjun carried the cake steamed buns that Han Zhongqui bought in the morning, and hurriedly went on the road, but he didn't expect to leave a note for Han Zhongqui, and he remembered it halfway, but he didn't want to turn back, so he had no choice but to follow the messenger to continue his journey.

Not long after Han Dongjun went out, Han Zhongqui led Qian Xuanxuan over, and when he saw that the gate was locked, he scolded angrily: "This bastard bastard, knowing that I would come back immediately, actually closed the door, and the guy who had no one in his eyes was too lazy to help him, let's go back." "89 Library

Qian Xuanxuan asked in surprise, "Didn't you tell him when he would be able to return?" My time is precious, since he is not here, I will go back first, and it is up to you to decide whether you go back or not. ”

Han Zhongli whispered: "Maybe he has something urgent to deal with and doesn't have time to wait for us. The door lock can't be opened, with our kung fu can completely climb over the wall to enter, the noon pastries are enough for us to eat, let's go in from the backyard! ”

"That's fine, I'll listen to you once." Qian Xuanxuan said heartily.

The two of them came to the backyard and went over the wall, passing through the vegetable field, Han Zhongqui suddenly saw a pigeon lying on the ground, hurriedly bent down and picked up the pigeon and said: "Cousin, my pigeon was killed before it flew out of the yard, the rope was untied, and the note was missing, go into the room to see, has it been picked up by Han Dongjun?" ”

Han Zhongqui searched all the rooms, disappeared the note, and disappeared the cakes, and said loudly: "Han Dongjun must have gone a long way, I bought a lot of steamed bread cakes in the morning, and they were all taken away by him, I don't know what task to perform, do you want to wait here?" ”

Qian Xuanxuan glanced outside the door and whispered, "It seems to be late now, and if you don't see him come back at noon, then we'll go back to the palace for dinner." It takes about an hour. ”

Han Zhongquan said loudly: "It's okay, listen to my cousin." The scenery in this yard is not bad, there are all kinds of fruits, trees and flowers, and the air is quite fresh. Single-family and detached families are all good, but they are just as bad. ”

Qian Xuanxuan asked in surprise: "What's not good?" I think it's quite quiet and elegant, the yard is like a garden, there are small bridges and flowing water, three trees on the first floor and one bottom of the house, and it is also very clean, a good place to recuperate. ”

Han Zhongli said mysteriously: "You don't know, Han Donglang was kidnapped here, and the single family shouted that no one should be, that every day is not working, no one rescues, and personal safety is not guaranteed." That's where his parents and housekeeper were murdered! If there are a lot of neighbors and they live in a house like a courtyard, will the murderer still brazenly come in and kill and kidnap them? ”

Qian Xuanxuan nodded and said: "That's right, the key is not to get involved in the rights and wrongs of officialdom, especially those cases, An An is farming to support his family, who will murder?" ”

Han Zhongli shook his head and said: "But Han Dongjun is an idle person, he has a good martial arts, he likes to fight grievances, rob the rich and help the poor, and he is a friend of Han Donglang, how can he stand by and watch?" ”

Qian Xuanxuan asked suspiciously: "Didn't you say that you just met him, how can you know so much?" ”

Han Zhongqui smiled mysteriously and said: "I asked others, it seems that there is a sound of the door opening, why are you coming back now, go out and have a look." ”

Qian Xuanxuan came to the front yard, heard someone picking the door lock, hurriedly flashed back to the room, and said close to Han Zhongqui's ear: "It's true that someone is coming, but it's not Han Dongjun, let's not make a sound, go to the window on the second floor and stare at them." ”

Han Zhongqui whispered, "Well, go upstairs." ”

The door lock was finally pried open, and Han Zhongquan was shocked, staring at the two fierce and vicious men, and asked next to Qian Xuanxuan, "Are you here to kill us?" It seems that the person who came is not good. ”

Qian Xuanxuan whispered: "Don't make a sound, just look at them." ”

Suddenly, I heard someone downstairs say: "Han Dongjun is not at home, the information is wrong, why do you want to hire us to kill him?" With her own martial arts, she can completely slaughter this Han Dongjun, why should we be accused of being a murderer for a few silver. If someone finds out and reports the crime, we will go to jail, and if we don't get it, we will kill our heads, and we have money to spend on life, what's the use? Why do you want to take over the murder mission, we have no grievances with Han Dongjun, the villagers have been in the village for decades, how can you be embarrassed to kill him? I'm quitting and going back. ”

"Fourth, I can't make much other money, it's too hard to farm, and I can't fill my stomach, kill Han Dongjun, our brothers can get 10,000 taels of silver, 5,000 taels each, enough for us to spend a lifetime, why don't you do it? It's just that he doesn't know where to go, so let's go back in vain, and come back at night to wait for the rabbit. It was dark at night, and he couldn't see clearly who we were, so he killed him. With his head in hand, we can go to her house and get ten thousand taels of silver. ”

"Third child, don't be delusional, if someone learns that we killed Han Dongjun and got 10,000 taels of silver, maybe the next people to die will be our brothers, so let's just let it go home."

"Well, what the fourth said is not unreasonable, but after we go back, will the employer kill us? Our own personal safety is not guaranteed, what can we do? ”

"What to do, I'll do it for you." Qian Xuanxuan went downstairs and said.

The two of them were so frightened that they ran away, Han Zhongli had already blocked the door, and said sharply: "We won't hurt you, if you want to live, stand with us, it's a mystery whether you can live when you go out." ”
