Chapter 30 Do not approach the living

The capital is full of spring.

After being released from prison, Liu Ruyan and the green pothos girl were able to see each other, and they couldn't help but hug their heads and cry. After crying enough, the two of them couldn't find the mother-in-law everywhere.

They wandered on the banks of the Yanliu River, walked in the streets and alleys, and searched everywhere their mother-in-law could go, but there was still no news.

The girl frowned slightly, and her face was solemn. My heart is full of suspicions: Under this great Qi, a good living person must live to see people, and die to see corpses, right? How can you say that if you don't say that, it's gone?

"Let's go to the yamen and look for it." The girl stopped and looked at the pothos and said.

The green pothos trembled for a moment, and said timidly: "Sister, I'm afraid of ......."

"Afraid of what? At the beginning, it was the yamen who detained us by mistake, but now my sister and I have broken free from the cage, and we can't leave my mother-in-law alone! ”。

The pothos hesitated for a moment, then mustered up the courage to nod slightly.

The two of them plucked up their courage, and there was still some distance from the government office, when they were stopped by a group of poor men with big shoulders and round waists and sticks.

"Stop, what do you two want to do? Don't come forward from standing there, or don't blame us for being rude and breaking your legs! ”。 A meaty-faced Humpty Dumpty shouted viciously.

Luluo hurriedly stood still with a tense body, and said calmly and slightly: "Several officials, there is an old woman who was detained by you and sent to prison with me some time ago. Now that I have been wronged, I have regained my freedom, but there is no trace of the mother-in-law. ”

Humpty Dumpty shouted: "What mother-in-law, mother-in-law, this is the forbidden place of the government, Nian'er and the others are women, leave quickly, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around!" ”。

Ruyan frowned lightly, sighed slightly, took a step forward, and saluted again: "Please make it convenient for a few adults, the people have no way to ask for help, so they have the courage to come here." ”

As she spoke, she followed her mother-in-law's original appearance, and quietly stuffed the silver taels that had been prepared in her sleeves into the sleeves of an official who walked in front of her.

The official was stunned for a moment, then reached out and touched his sleeve and weighed it. He smiled and said: "Don't be surprised by the two girls, these two brothers of mine were only temporarily transferred today, and they were only on duty on the first day, so they didn't know the rules, so they didn't scare you, right?" ”

As he spoke, he secretly glanced at the meaty Humpty Dumpty man beside him.

The poor man nodded understandingly, lowered his eyes, and put away the fierce face just now.

The smiling errand officer continued: "Oh, two girls, I didn't say you, this government is the key point of the county guard's errand, not the place where you are looking for people. Today, because I met me and others, I would have been a stranger, and I would have already stopped asking about the innocent and beaten you half to death first! ”。

Pothos' eyes widened, and she was skeptical. Ruyan smiled slightly, noncommittal.

Then, the messenger looked ahead and said, "But according to what the girl said just now, you can go to the government prison and take a look, all the temporary prisoners are there." ”

Ruyan lowered her head and thought about it, and felt that it made sense. Hurriedly leaned over and saluted again, pulled the sleeve of the pothos and turned away.

Familiar with the car came to the door of the prison, and the messenger in charge of the guard immediately shouted: "Stop, wait until you dare to take a step forward, don't blame our brother for being black, and shoot him directly on the charge of smashing the prison and fighting the prison!" ”。

The face of the green pothos turned pale when she heard the words, like the smoke girl had the experience of the last time, and she did not panic at all. She bowed slightly and saluted: "Which adult can come forward and borrow a step to speak, the people have something important to ask for." ”

The leader of the small leader skimmed his mustache dissatisfiedly, pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword, and stepped forward.

Like the smoke girl concocted in the same way, the little leader's face was full of sunshine in an instant, and the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant.

He politely clenched his fists and said, "What's the matter with the two beauties?" But if there is a need, we will definitely draw a sword to help! ”。

Miss Ruyan hurriedly asked: "Some time ago, the mother-in-law who was imprisoned with me has not been heard from so far. ”。

The mustachioed jailer shook his head sincerely and said, "I really don't know this, except for the official who was in charge of the interrogation that day, who is the one who that idle?" What's more, there are so many prisoners in the prison that they are overcrowded, and no one remembers those little things! ”。

Ruyan sighed in disappointment and slowly lowered her head.

Seeing this, the bearded jailer's heart softened, and he hurriedly and enthusiastically added: "Don't worry, girl, wait a while, I'll help you find two people, and the two of them will definitely know!" ”。

After a while, the mustache brought a roe deer-headed rat-eyed little man with a lewd look. This man was dressed like a jailer.

The man approached, and first looked the smoke and pothos up and down with the thief's eyes for a moment, and a hint of malice appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The mustachioed jailer spoke: "His brother is not here, this little seventh brother has a special status, and he knows everything about the prisoners in the prison, and he will definitely be able to help you." ”

Ruyan hurriedly thanked him again. When I looked up and saw the dirty and smelly little Qi looking at her, I suddenly felt unhappy in my heart.

Xiao Qi smiled, lowered his head and said: "The little special manager transported the dead out of the prison, and they either died of a sudden evil disease, or they couldn't survive the torture, and they were all transported out of the city by the hands of my two brothers. The person you're looking for may be able to meet you tomorrow, but it's just ......."

Ruyan hurriedly said: "You just need to open your mouth for how many silver taels you need." In any case, my mother-in-law treats me with a deep friendship, I want to see people in life, and I want to see corpses in death! ”。

Xiao Qi nodded with satisfaction and said in a low voice: "Early tomorrow morning, the little one outside the West Gate is waiting for the two girls to come, remember to bring enough silver taels!" ”。

After going back, Ruyan and pothos tossed and turned all night, and it was difficult to sleep. The next day when the day was shining and the gate was opened, she and the two hurried out of the west gate, and stood by the roadside waiting.

With a puff of incense, a tightly covered carriage pulled up beside them.

Xiao Qi had a lewd smile on his face, poked his head out of the carriage and said, "Two girls, let's get in the car, let's find a secluded place to trade, maybe the old woman you two are looking for is in the car." ”

Ruyan was about to raise her legs to get into the car in a hurry, and the pothos gently pulled her sleeve behind herself. Ruyan twisted her waist and glanced back, and she was also a little hesitant.

Xiao Qi held a horsewhip and urged: "What? Have you two changed your mind? If the action is sharp, it is impossible to say that the old woman is still alive! ”。

Ruyan no longer hesitated, gritted his teeth and stepped into the carriage.

There was a pungent rancid smell in the car, choking like smoke and pothos tears, and the two of them hurriedly took out a silk handkerchief and covered their mouths and noses.

"Driving" Xiao Qiyi flicked the horsewhip, and the carriage staggered along a small road towards a dense and gloomy forest in the distance.

(To be continued in this chapter)

The latter paragraph is a test statistic, so leave it alone.

The man in black quickly stretched out his right hand and fingers and pointed them on the guard's chest, and the jailer remained motionless with his mouth wide open as if by magic.

The man in black did not reach for a large set of keys hanging from the jailer's waist, but quickly turned around and walked to the cell door, reached out and felt a hard filament from his arms, and with a "snap", the big lock of the cell door fell in response.

The sound woke up the young woman who was in a daze and slumber with shackles on her back, and she quickly sat up, and the man in black had already pounced in front of her. The woman was about to open her mouth to scream in panic, when the man in black put his right index finger to his lips and motioned for her to shut up.

The man in black leaned down and whispered in her ear, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you." ”

The woman looked at the other party suspiciously, but she couldn't see anything except two thick black sword eyebrows and a pair of bright eyes.

After a moment's hesitation, the young woman gritted her teeth and nodded. The man in black reached out and tugged at the shackles around her neck, and the shackles fell to the ground.

Without saying a word, the man in black reached out to pick up the woman and walked out quickly.

In the darkness, the young woman's face was slightly red, her breathing was inexplicably short, and she clearly felt the powerful texture of the other arm's arm and the heat coming from his broad back.

As soon as he stepped out of the cell door, on the other side of the corridor came two jailers with torches and steel knives in their hands, patrolling around the night.

The two tall jailers were taken aback at first, and then gritted their teeth and shouted, "Who is so daring? Leave your life behind! At the same time, he held the cold steel knife high and rushed over.
