Chapter 269: Stay in the city for a long time

When Lu Qingzi stumbled into the Tongfu Inn, he found that the guards had already arrived, and he was looking at the door at this moment.

Seeing that she came back with blood stains on her body, she hurriedly greeted her and asked, "Miss, are you injured?" ”

Lu Qingzi shook his head, "This is someone else's blood." ”

The guard breathed a sigh of relief, looked at her and said, "Let's go in first!" ”

Lu Qingzi nodded, and followed the guard into the Tongfu Inn, and the shopkeeper saw that he was back with a blood-stained woman behind him, and couldn't help but have a trace of horror in his eyes: "Girl, what is this blood?" ”

Recently, there have been a series of murder cases, although they are not in Qingfeng City, but those murderers, so far, not even one has been caught, and after a long time, even some people here have become panicked.

He was doing business with people passing by, and no one knew who they were.

Lu Qingzi muttered a few words, and followed him upstairs.

waited until he heard the sound of Lu Qingzi closing the door, and then told the running hall in the store to look at Lu Qingzi more, and if there was anything wrong, he immediately went to report to the official.

The young man who ran the hall nodded, "Shopkeeper, the little tiger next door is lost, do you know about this?" ”

The shopkeeper was stunned, "Xiaohu is lost?" When? ”

"Just last afternoon, Xiaohu's mother thought it was a child who was playful, but she didn't come back all night, and she went to report to the official this morning."

The young man who ran the hall approached the shopkeeper and whispered: "The daughter of the shopkeeper Li's family was also missing last month, and she hasn't been found yet!" Shopkeeper, our Qingfeng City is not peaceful. ”

The shopkeeper responded, and said thoughtfully: "Then let's be more careful, open the door to do a serious business, but don't get into trouble." ”

As the two of them were talking, they saw a six-year-old girl running down from upstairs, the girl was wearing two sideburns, a red head rope tied to them, and a red embroidered shirt with a brocade, which made a small face Yuxue cute.

"Dad, I want to eat candy man." The little girl came to the shopkeeper, took his hand and said coquettishly: "Mother ignores me, is it okay for my father to give me candy to eat?" ”

The corner of the shopkeeper's mouth involuntarily smiled, touched her cheek and said, "The store is busy today, will Dad take Wanru there later?" ”

Zhao Wanru nodded sensibly, "Well, don't forget it, Dad!" ”

The shopkeeper smiled and said, "Forget the big thing, and you can't forget to buy candy for Wanru." ”

After finishing speaking, he ordered another young man to take her to the side to play, and before leaving, he told him to watch at all times, and not to ask Zhao Wanru to run around.

The young man also knew about Huzi's disappearance, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off.

When the sun was about to set, there was less business in the store, and Zhao Wanru was also brought back by the young man.

The shopkeeper took her hand to buy candy, and when she walked out of the door, she suddenly turned her head and looked upstairs.

The man and woman who came today have never come down until now.

In the upstairs room, Lu Qingzi rested for an afternoon, and finally felt that the fatigue of the past few days of traveling and driving, and the fright he received after entering Qingfeng City was alleviated a lot.

Lu Qingzi changed out of his bloody clothes, tidied up his sideburns, and then stood up and went to Gu Ningyue's house.

Entering the room, Lu Qingzi glanced at her bandaged ankle and asked, "Can you go now?" ”

Gu Ningyue was stunned for a moment, if it weren't for Lu Qingzi's voice not changing, I am afraid that she would have called Mu Xuan over immediately.

"You're transfiguring again?" Gu Ningyue didn't answer Lu Qingzi's question, she only looked at her suspiciously and asked.

Lu Qingzi nodded, but didn't say the reason for the disguise, just looked at her and asked, "How is your wound?" ”

Gu Ningyue said: "It's not a big deal, it's just that my ankle is injured, and I can't walk now." ”

After she tried to walk a few steps that day, her ankle was slightly swollen again, and if she had been reckless, she would have been able to endure the journey for a while.

"I have sent to the city gate to ask for a carriage to come back, so let me leave here tomorrow!"

I have to say that Lu Qingzi still had lingering feelings about what happened at noon, she looked at Gu Ningyue and continued: "This Qingfeng City is not a place to stay for a long time, it's better to leave early." ”

Gu Ningyue looked at Lu Qingzi, and was a little puzzled by her attitude, "What happened?" So anxious to get out of here? ”

Lu Qingzi sat beside her, told her about what happened after meeting the little girl, and finally looked at Gu Ningyue and said, "It's just that I have to work hard for you, and I have to take a carriage with an injury." ”

Gu Ningyue said: "I'm fine, but how did you come here?" ”

Lu Qingzi actually came from the capital to look for her, I am afraid that it is not just as simple as worrying about her.

Hearing Gu Ningyue's question, Lu Qingzi did not say what happened to her at the moment in "A Thousand Herbs", at least she could tell Gu Ningyue about this matter until she reached Fenghuaguan.

Now she only has two guards by her side, and for Gu Ningyue, who is good at using poison, I am afraid that it can be solved with just a few hands.

Lu Qingzi admitted that she didn't trust Gu Ningyue very much.

"It's nothing, I just heard that you were in danger here, so I wanted to come and have a look." Lu Qingzi smiled and did not tell the truth.

Although Gu Ningyue didn't believe it, she didn't continue to ask, and only said: "Your luck is really better today, you can escape from four or five people." ”

Lu Qingzi responded, and in her heart, those who believed their words and pointed at them made Lu Qingzi even more angry.

"If you don't get taken away today, I'm afraid you won't want to come out again." Gu Ningyue glanced at Lu Qingzi, and her eyes made Lu Qingzi feel a little uneasy.

"What do you mean?" Lu Qingzi was a little puzzled.

Gu Ningyue said to Lu Qingzi suspiciously: "Don't you know? The people who were taken away by these people were basically sold to the mountain villages, don't say it, it's good to be alive. ”

Lu Qingzi inexplicably remembered Chu Yi, and when he talked to himself about his brother, he had a look of remorse.

Fortunately, Chu Lie was found later by mistake, otherwise I am afraid that it will really become a knot for a lifetime.

Seeing Lu Qingzi's complicated complexion, Gu Ningyue continued: "We have been here for a few days, and we have lost two children in this city, and we haven't found them yet, maybe the people you met were done by the same group." ”

Lu Qingzi nodded, looked at Gu Ningyue after thinking for a while, and asked, "Do you want me to deal with this matter before leaving?" ”

Gu Ningyue was stunned for a moment, shook her head and smiled: "I'm not so kind, I just suddenly remembered and told you by the way!" ”

Lu Qingzi responded, thought for a while and said to her: "Your foot injury is not healed yet, so let's rest for a few more days!" ”

Gu Ningyue smiled, and Lu Qingzi didn't say anything like 'leaving tomorrow'.

Sure enough, Lu Qingzi was still soft-hearted and couldn't let it go.
