Chapter 183: Trapped in the Stone Room
When Xiao Qi returned home at night, the whole family found out that Hua Xi'er was missing.
But the crowd was frightened, and they immediately went out to look for it.
Even the neighbors on the left and right joined the search army, and they were either carrying torches or lanterns to search in the city.
When some people saw that there was a lot of excitement outside, they inquired about what was going on.
"The aunt of the Seven Heroines is missing."
"What, the aunt of our Seven Heroines in Pengzhou City is missing, and I will help find it."
Many people heard that the aunt of the Seven Heroines was missing, and they all spontaneously came out to help find someone.
Lu Feng's uncle, Lu Buqun, returned home after drinking a little wine outside.
Mrs. Lu stepped forward, "Master, are you drinking flower wine outside again?" β
Lu Buqun, "It's not about drinking flower wine, I was talking about business and drinking a little wine with the merchants today." β
"Mother Zhang, go cook the decanting soup."
Lu Buqun waved his hand: "No need, I have to go out again." β
Mrs. Lu: "It's getting late, where else are you going, master?" β
"Something is wrong, haven't you heard, ma'am? Feng'er is missing. β
Mrs. Lu couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Really? Isn't this what the old man wants? Didn't you help him find a job catching fast just so that he could have an accident one day? Why bother to go out and find it? β
"Madam, pay attention to your expression, don't let people find fault with it, after all, we are his uncle and aunt, wait a minute, I'll make a show and go out to find someone, so that people can know that I am a good uncle who cares about my nephew."
"Master, have you done the accounts in the shop last year?"
Lu Buqun looked impatient, "It's too troublesome to do things for the account book, if Feng'er doesn't come back in the future, we won't have to do this troublesome account again, and then the shop and Zhuangzi will rightfully belong to us." β
The two couples looked at each other and smiled, and then Lu Buqun went out with the four little guys.
The little guys shouted as they walked with lanterns: "Our Master Lu has come out to look for his nephewβ"
At the corner of the street, Lu Buqun deliberately knocked down an old man.
The old man's voice attracted many onlookers.
At this time, Lu Buqun did not forget to promote himself, and shouted to everyone: "My nephew Lu Feng is missing, and I am eager to find my nephew, so I bumped into you, old man, I am really sorry, there is a piece of silver here, please accept it." β
Someone asked, "I heard that it was the aunt of the Seven Heroines who disappeared, why are there other people missing?" β
Lu Buqun covered his face with his sleeves and cried, "My nephew Lu Feng disappeared with the aunt of the Seven Women, my hard-working nephew, he lost his parents when he was very young, I hope everyone must help find him." β
There were more and more onlookers, and when Lu Buqun saw that it was almost over, he said loudly:
"In Xialu Buqun, who can help me find my nephew, I will award one hundred taels of silver."
The onlookers were stunned, one hundred taels is really a lot of money for ordinary people.
"Master Lu is so good to his nephew."
"Master Lu is benevolent."
"Master Lu is a loving and righteous person."
As a result, the streets in Pengzhou City are even more lively, even more so than the Shangyuan Festival.
Lu Buqun walked around with the little servant pretending, and then turned home to rest, he was so happy today, now that Lu Feng is gone, the property entrusted to him by Lu Feng will naturally belong to him in the future, and he has earned a good reputation tonight, which is really beautiful.
β¦β¦
In the tunnel, Goatee is depressed.
The silver was shipped out yesterday, and they came to save the second leader today, but they didn't expect so many people in Pengzhou City today.
He'd climbed up to the top and inquired, and it was crowded.
"It seems that we can't save the second master tonight, take the two of them to Tiger Roaring Mountain first, and then we will send a letter to the government and use these two people to exchange the second master back."
β¦β¦
When they arrived, they still didn't find it, and the sky fell with raindrops, and most of the people went back when they saw the rain.
Xiao Qi was very anxious, she ran all over the streets and alleys of Pengzhou City, but she still couldn't find any trace of Hua Xi'er.
She returned to the ruins of the Wanbao Silver Building, and sat in the ruins of the Wanbao Silver Building, the rain became heavier and heavier, and the water flowed down her cheeks, and she couldn't tell whether it was rain or tears.
Xiao Qi remembered when he was a child, and remembered the bits and pieces of getting along with Aunt Xi, Aunt Xi is said to be the closest one besides her father and brother Afu.
An oil-paper umbrella slowly moved to the top of her head, Xiao Qi raised her head, and saw that the person who came was Mu Ziqi, speaking of which, this was the third person to help her with the umbrella.
In the past, her brother Ah Fu helped her with an umbrella, and Aunt Xi also helped her with an umbrella.
"Thank you, why haven't you come home yet, aren't you afraid that your mother will kill you?"
Mu Ziqi stretched out his hand to pull Xiao Qi up, and replied seriously: "Because I want to solve the case, I can go back later." β
Mu Ziqi took out a handkerchief to help Xiao Qi wipe the water on his face, and said warmly: "I asked Ah Mo to bring some snacks from our Mufu, which may not be as delicious as your mother's cooking, don't dislike it." Amo - Come here. β
Ah Mo walked over with a small basket, "Childe, where is it?" β
Mu Ziqi pulled Xiao Qi forward: "Don't you like the hexagonal edge of the well, let's sit on the edge of the well and eat." β
Xiao Qi: "Amo, you stay away from the edge of the well, it's very slippery on rainy days, and it's still more dangerous for people who don't know martial arts to stay here-"
As Xiao Qi was talking, he saw Ah Mo walking to the well with a basket in his hand, and one slipped and fell into the well.
Xiao Qi was eager to save people, and immediately jumped down.
Mu Ziqi saw that both of them went down to the well, yes, I will go too.
So Mu Zixi also jumped into the well.
The well is indeed as Feng Wanbao said, there is no water at all.
However, the three of them stayed at the bottom of the well at the same time, and it was still a little crowded.
The lantern was not taken down, the bottom of the well was a little dark, and Xiao Qi took out the fire fold and lit it.
After seeing the person clearly, Mu Ziqi asked, "Ah Mo, are you hurt?" β
Ah Mo was picking up the dim sum that had fallen on the ground by the light of the fire, "I'm fine, childe, you forgot, I used to learn martial arts with you, although I learned very poorly like you." β
Mu Zichen frowned, there was no need to say the second half of the sentence at all.
Mu Ziqi had to admit that this little guy of his was too stupid, but after using it for a long time, he really didn't want to change it.
Ah Mo picked up the snack and stood up and knocked Mu Ziqi down, "I'm sorry Childe." β
Mu Ziqi: "Clumsy, I can't speak, what's the use of asking you." β
Then when Mu Ziqi got up, he touched the wall of the well behind him, and the wall of the well began to move.
Amo: "Childe, it's not good, do you want to move?" β
After a while, the wall of the well stopped moving, and a square hole appeared next to Mu Ziqi.
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up immediately, and she intuitively felt that this hole might be related to her Aunt Xi.
"Let's go inside."
So Xiao Qi led the team, and Mu Ziqi and Ah Mo followed her into the cave.
After walking a distance of about seven or eight feet, three passages appeared in front of the three of them.
Which channel should I choose?
Xiao Qi: "It's better for each of us to have a channel." β
Ah Mo clasped his hands around his shoulders, "Don't, don't leave me, I'm afraid." β
Mu Zixi: "I'm also afraid of the dark, little seventh girl, why don't the three of us walk together, in case we encounter thieves, we can take care of each other." β
Xiao Qi felt that Mu Ziqi had a point, so the three of them walked towards the first passage together.
At the end of the passage was a stone chamber, and when they entered, they didn't know if they had touched something, but the door of the stone chamber closed automatically.
That's terrible.
Xiao Qi saw that there were two oil lamps in the stone room, and immediately lit them.
The room suddenly became bright.
Xiao Qi swept around and saw that there was only a bed and a table in the stone room.
She and Mu Zichen glanced at each other, and the two began to look for mechanisms.
Xiao Qi wanted to get out quickly, she felt that her Aunt Xi was likely to be in the two passages next to her, believing that there must be a mechanism in this stone room.
But the two fumbled for a long time, but they gained nothing.
Mu Zishan sighed: "We won't starve to death here, right?" β
Ah Mo raised his arm and smiled so much that he couldn't see his teeth, "Young master, don't be afraid, we have something to eat." β
Xiao Qi looked at the basket, she had a lot of food, these foods were only enough for her to eat one meal, if she was trapped here for a long time, she would definitely starve to death.
