Volume 1: A Mess After the Crossing Chapter 38: Did the Thief Steal a Woman Instead?
Master Zhang walked into the bedroom and saw his wife sitting on the chair with an angry face, he was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked: Madam, what happened to you ------, who made you angry?
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang glared at him fiercely and said: You still ask me what's wrong, it's all making you angry, what are you doing with this old guy, the matter hasn't been decided yet, you just got that little prince into the mansion, and asked Fang'er to see him, if it gets out, will it be okay.
Hearing this, Master Zhang said aggrievedly: Madam, where did I make this out, it was all made by your precious son, he first took it upon himself to bring the little prince Zhao into the house, and then came to tell me, out of courtesy, I had to go to see it, who knew that your son deceived Yun Fang under my banner again, what can I do, I can't teach our son in front of the little prince Zhao.
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang jumped up from the seat and scolded: This rebel, such nonsense, I can't spare him.
With that, take a step and go out.
Seeing this, Master Zhang hurriedly grabbed her and asked, "What are you doing?"
Mrs. Zhang snorted angrily and said: I'll go to the dignitaries to settle accounts.
Master Zhang hurriedly said: Zhao Xiaowang hasn't left yet.
Mrs. Zhang said: What's wrong with him not leaving, I will teach my son what to do with him.
Master Zhang said: Madam, why are you so confused, this will make Zhao Xiaowang unable to come to the stage, if Zhao Xiaowang goes back to tell his father, the old prince will definitely think that our family and their Luoyang palace can't get by, the old prince is the emperor's uncle today, the power is the government and the opposition, if I say I in front of the emperor, is there any hope for my reinstatement.
After a pause, he paused for a moment and then said: Besides, Li Gongzi has not seen a shadow so far, something must have happened, Fang'er and his marriage is already in name only, just wait for three months to pass, the old man will call the witnesses to the house to announce the dissolution of their marriage contract, and our Fang'er will naturally marry Zhao Xiaowangye, it is understandable to meet in advance, I have seen the little prince just now, he is good-looking, a talent, and he is knowledgeable and knowledgeable, and he is worthy of our Yunfang.
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhang glared at him and said, "You think it's good, will our daughter agree?"
Hearing this, Master Zhang said disapprenousively: Yun Fang disagreed, that is, she still had a glimmer of hope for Li Gongzi in Handan, if Li Gongzi really had an accident and couldn't renew the contract, she would also cut off hope, and in a few days, we will persuade her from the side, she will not disagree.
In the evening, Li Yinglong came to the foot of a small dirt mountain, he looked up at the sun that was about to set, and then looked around, and saw that everywhere he looked, there was a wilderness.
After seeing it, he couldn't help but secretly say, if you go any further, there may not be anyone's home, staying in the wilderness at night is not for fun, Grandma Dry Skin, if you meet a group of wolves or something, you have to be divided.
Just as he was looking around to see if there was a place to stay, he suddenly noticed smoke rising from behind a grove at the top of the hill, which indicated that there were people living behind the grove, so he climbed up the mountain.
Li Yinglong walked through a small grove to a house, which is a common local farmhouse, with five main houses, three side rooms, and a large courtyard, the courtyard wall is made of tree sticks, and even the courtyard door is made of tree sticks.
Li Yinglong didn't dare to break in, for fear that people would treat him as a thief, so he stood at the gate of the courtyard and shouted loudly: Hey, is there anyone in the house? Here comes the guests.
But after shouting, no one answered, but there was smoke in the chimney on the roof, which meant that there must be someone in the house, so he raised his voice and shouted: Is there anyone in the house? Anyone?
As soon as the words fell, I heard a crisp sound from the side room, as if something had broken, but no one responded.
Li Yinglong was confused, and couldn't figure out what was going on, he couldn't help but raise his hand and scratch his head and muttered: Grandma Ganpi, what is this family doing, playing hide and seek? Obviously at home, but don't squeak, do you think that your grandfather and I will tell you politely and dare not go in, what, even if you don't squeak, I won't leave, your grandfather and I are also correct.
After that, he pushed open the courtyard door and walked in, and said loudly as he entered: Hey, I'm in the door, someone will come out, otherwise I will break into your house, if you have a secret that you are afraid of people is seen by me, it is you who made it yourself, and you can't complain about me.
He deliberately walked towards the wing room with heavy steps.
But when he arrived at the door, he still didn't hear anyone respond, Li Yinglong really broke into the house, thought about it and moved to the window of a room, looked into the house through a hole in the window, and suddenly, his face showed shock.
After seeing it, Li Yinglong couldn't help but secretly exclaimed, Grandma Dry Pi, no one answered no matter how I shouted, it turned out that this was a bandit's den, and there were three women who were tied up in it.
He stood in the courtyard for a while and didn't see anyone come out, so he quietly walked back to the door, and then suddenly pushed the door open, and then dodged to the side, but the door was open for a while and there was no movement, Li Yinglong was afraid of fraud, so he didn't dare to break in rashly, so he bluffed: Listen, the people inside listen, the government is coming, you have been surrounded, and the smart ones will come out and kneel and surrender, otherwise we will rush in and arrest you, then you will be miserable.
But after shouting, no one answered, and no one came out.
Seeing this, Li Yinglong couldn't help muttering: Could it be that I was scared away.
After a moment's hesitation, he walked into the room on full alert.
When Li Yinglong cautiously entered the house, he found that there were three young women sitting on the large earthen kang in the house, and each of them had a ball of rags stuffed in their mouths, no wonder they couldn't make a sound. At this time, Li Yinglong saw that there was a porcelain bowl broken into several pieces on the ground in the house, and the crisp sound just now was made by the bowl falling to the ground. It seems that the three women in the house found that someone was coming, but they were tied up, and their mouths were stuffed with rags and they couldn't make a sound for help, so they thought of such a kicking bowl and falling to the ground to attract Li Yinglong to come and save them, these three women are quite smart.
Li Yinglong hurriedly jumped on the kang and came to the three women, first reached out and pulled out the rags stuffed in their mouths, and then untied the ropes on their bodies.
After the three women regained their freedom, they knelt down and kowtowed to Li Yinglong on the earthen kang and shouted: Childe, help!
Li Yinglong jumped from the kang to the ground and waved his hand to the three of them: Get up, get up, dry grandma, we don't want this.
The three women got up from the kang, jumped off the kang and stood in front of Li Yinglong.
Li Yinglong asked: What is the matter with you?
Woman A: I was secretly abducted by two men when I was sleeping at night and came to this ghost place.
Woman B: Me too.
Woman C: I got here when I was walking on the street when two men covered their mouths and knocked me unconscious.
Hearing this, Li Yinglong suddenly said: Oh, I understand, I said that when I entered the city at noon today, I was stopped by two officials, and then I used an image of two people to look at and take pictures for a while, it turned out that there was a thief who stole women in this place.
After that, he paused, and then asked: By the way, what about the two thieves, why aren't they here, and were they scared away by me?
Woman A said: They went out, saying that they were still missing two young women, and they went to steal people again.
Hearing this, Li Yinglong said strangely: What about it, the world has changed, thieves don't steal things and start stealing women.
Woman B: Childe, you can do well, save us.
Hearing this, Li Yinglong said: Of course I want to rescue you, otherwise why would I come in and let you go.
At that moment, everyone heard footsteps coming from outside.
Hearing this, Woman C said in a panic: Oh no, they're back.
Li Yinglong was stunned and said: Are you sure that these two thieves are you?
Woman C said in a very affirmative tone: I can hear their footsteps, and I can't be wrong.
Li Yinglong nodded, thought for a while, and said: You guys hide first, and I'll deal with these two guys.
Hearing this, the three women hurriedly hid in another room.
At this time, two men in gray clothes who were about thirty years old, one tall and one short, pushed open the courtyard door and walked in.
The tall man said in frustration: Damn, we can't get into the city, the young women from all the villages are gathered together at night, and they are guarded by dozens of strong men and can't start, where are we missing two women.
The short man said: If it's not good, we have to get it, otherwise how can we deal with the hall master.
Hearing this, the tall man nodded and said, "Then let's eat something to fill our stomachs first, and then go to a farther place to try to steal two women to make up the difference."
The short man said: But the hall wants us to do this in Fengqiu, and didn't let us go anywhere else.
Hearing this, the tall man said disapprovingly: Why are the women here staying here if they can't steal it, the hall master won't say anything if he knows it.
As they spoke, they pushed open the door of the wing room and walked in.
After entering the room, the two suddenly found that the three young women on the kang were missing, and they couldn't help but stand in front of the kang in shock.
After a while, the tall man suddenly asked, "Brother Ding, did we put the three women in this room?"
The short man pointed to the three ropes on the kang with his hand and said, "It's not wrong, isn't the rope that tied them still here, but where have the people gone?"
Then the two shouted almost in unison: Oh no, they're running!
Then the two of them turned together to go outside, when they saw a young man with a black and yellow face standing across from them and looking at them with a grin.
