This night, the mountain moon boat.

Gao Jingshu was not happy to come here, but Xiao Lin repeatedly sent people to send him letters, and he reluctantly appreciated Xiao Lin's face.

The two women opened a beaded curtain for Gao Jingshu to enter. Seeing this, Xiao Lin immediately put down his wine glass and stepped forward, smiling brightly: "Brother-in-law, good news." ”

"He's really in your hands"

Xiao Lin shook his fingers, "No, in the hands of One-Eyed, will a ruthless bandit like One-Eyed make the surnamed Mei get a good deal?"

Gao Jingshu said lightly: "Lord Futai has already sent someone to look for it, you'd better let them do it neatly and neatly, don't grind."

"Brother-in-law, don't worry, they are not in Xuanzhou in Jinzhou, that place in Jinzhou, even if the prefect wants to manage it, they can't manage it, even if they know where Mei Xiaoren is, they can only ask the Jinzhou Yamen for help, if they ask for someone, it will take a long time."

Gao Jingshu sat on the main seat, picked up the wine poured by Ge Ji, looked at the wine glass and said: "Those mountain bandits in Jinzhou still have the ability to catch Mei Xiaoren in Jinzhou."

"It's the help of the Flowing Fire Gang, a few days ago Qingying led me to see the fourth master, and when I got there, I happened to meet the one-eyed and they begged the fourth master to avenge them. The fourth master is a cheerful Jianghu person, and when he heard that their enemy was an official government, he agreed without saying a word. ”

Xiao Lin also poured himself a glass of wine, and continued, "The fourth master's skills are really good, and with a casual word, he let his subordinates find out where Mei Xiaoren is, and easily tied her up and handed her over to One-eyed. ”

Gao Jingshu asked while drinking: "What is the origin of this fourth master?"

"I don't know, I went, but he saw me, but I didn't see him, he kept sitting behind the curtain, and his voice was deliberately disguised, sounding like a young man for a while and a middle-aged man for a while"

The corners of Gao Jingshu's mouth twitched, "Trick the mystery"

"Let's not talk about this today, I learned that Mei Xiaoren was in a catastrophe, so I specially invited my brother-in-law to drink and celebrate." Xiao Lin raised his glass and saluted Gao Jingshu.

Outside the bead curtain, a waiting dancer called the maid to whisper a few words. The maid listened to the command, looked cautiously into the curtain, and left lightly while the guests inside were not paying attention.

Jinzhou City.

Ye Zhi and Zhang Zhutou led the people and horses to rush sleeplessly, all the way through the mountains and mountains, but it was the closest road to Jinzhou, and it took two days to get closer.

They came all the way, except for Ye Zhi, the catchers were still wearing the clothes of the yamen, but they were stopped by the soldiers guarding the city of Jinzhou as soon as they arrived at the entrance of Jinzhou.

Ye Zhi hurriedly stepped forward to explain: "Official, they are all the arresters of the Xuanzhou Mansion, and they came to Jinzhou to find a sentence for Lord Mei on the order of the prefect. ”

The soldier still refused to let him go, and asked, "Since it is an official business, if there are documents, if there are documents, I will lead you to Lord Zhizhou." ”

Ye Zhi couldn't help but be worried. They were in a hurry, and on the way they received a message that the adults had indeed fallen into the hands of thieves and were trapped in Jinzhou at this time. They hurried to Jinzhou, where did they have time to go back to the prefect to write documents.

A few soldiers blocked the way and didn't let go, and said with a stiff face: "This is Jinzhou, since you are the official of Xuanzhou Mansion, if you don't have documents, we can't let you into the city." ”

Sun Zhutou also made a difficulty: "Brother Ye, how is this good?"

"Let's go back first." Ye Zhi said helplessly, and took them back to Xuanzhou.

The soldiers of Jinzhou did not let them in, because they were afraid that the official government of Xuanzhou would interfere in Jinzhou's affairs. If an official of the state government goes to another state capital on business, if there is a document, it is called a co-organizer, and if there is no paperwork, it is called ultra vires.

If the relationship between the two cities and the government is good enough, they may be accommodating, but Jinzhou has always looked down on Xuanzhou, so how can it be accommodating.

Ye Zhi looked back at the people who were free to enter and leave the city gate, and an idea gradually came to his heart.

But they have more than a dozen catchers here, and the large number of people is too conspicuous, so he can only bring a few

Individuals disguised themselves in the city, so that they could not be easily detected.

Sun Zhutou agreed to Ye Zhi's proposal, selected four good skills from the officials, changed into cloth clothes borrowed from the farmer's family, and pretended to be ordinary people and entered Jinzhou City.

But a few people were dumbfounded when they entered the city. Jinzhou City is so big, and there is a vast sea of people, where can they go to find Lord Tongju

Fortunately, they had prepared portraits of adults in advance, so they scattered and took these portraits and asked around the city, but the passers-by who were asked either shook their heads or waved, in short, they had never seen them

It had been five days since Mei Xiaoren disappeared, and Ye Zhi was already anxious, he stood motionless in the middle of the crowd, not knowing where to look.

The other catchers also took the portraits and looked for people everywhere, almost asking the people on the street.

A splendid carriage drove through the street. Ye Zhi looked at the carriage and suddenly remembered a clue:

The coachman said that his family hired another carriage at the Jinzhou car dealer to return to Xuanzhou.

In that case, then they went to the car dealership and asked

Today is a cloudy day, even if there is no scorching sun exposure, Mei Xiaoren can't hold it anymore, and his face is white and bloodless. She felt as if she had been drained, and she couldn't exert any more strength.

The sight in front of her was getting blurrier and blurr, and even the silver bracelet on the ground was almost impossible to see

The minion would test her reaction with a branch every day, and when he saw that her head would twist slightly, he sneered: "It's not dead yet, it's hard enough."

The one-eyed bandit came in from outside, frowned and said, "Come on, a letter from the gang said that this dog official's dog legs are looking for him, let us be careful, in my opinion, give him a result today."

"Boss, let's be in Jinzhou, what are you afraid of, the officials of Xuanzhou can still take care of Jinzhou's affairs"

"The guts are fat, and I dare not even listen to Lao Tzu's words"

The one-eyed mountain bandit walked in front of Mei Xiaoren and looked at it, but now he didn't even have the strength to speak, let alone put on an official show, and said: "Look at his appearance, Lao Tzu is sure that he can't survive tomorrow, so it's too cheap to let him die like this, so I will throw him off the cliff today and break him to pieces." ”

"Alright then, listen to you, boss."

The one-eyed bandit took the branch in the minion's hand and pointed at Mei Xiaoren, "Go, untie him." ”

The minion walked up to Mei Xiaoren and untied the rope from her body in a nutshell.

The moment he loosened his binding, Mei Xiaoren's body collapsed like soft mud, lying on his side on the ground, unable to stand at all.

This fall brought her closer to the silver bracelet, and she stretched out her hand with all her might, only three inches away, and to her now, it seemed like the edge of the sky.

She was struggling to move forward, but she was suddenly helped up.

The two bandits picked her up and dragged her to the door, but as soon as they reached the door, they stopped.

Mei Xiaoren's eyes were open, and he could see several vague figures outside the door.

"Adult"

"The boss is an official errand," the minion stammered in fright, and suddenly let go of his hand.

The one-eyed bandits also lost their hands. Mei Xiaoren's feet were weak and he fell to the ground again.

Sun Zhutou rushed in with someone and shouted: "Bold and fanatical, dare to hold Lord Tongju hostage"

The minions were frightened and took a few steps back.

The one-eyed bandit was unmoved, still standing in front of the door with his waist straight, and leisurely copied his hands, not afraid of a few officials who raised their swords to stab at him.

Just as Sun Zhutou and the others were about to rush to the door, several dark red figures jumped down from the roof, blocking their way.

At this time, more than a dozen red-clothed people also came in from outside the wall, all masked and holding long knives, surrounding the five officials
