Rong Xiu's hand, which was originally spread on his knees, suddenly clenched into a fist, and the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out, and the original iron blue face became even more ugly.

Yan Xiaowei looked at his serious face and smiled briskly: "Why do you have an expression that I am about to die, I'm not okay now!" ”

Before he finished speaking, Rong Xiu's handsome face was so stiff that he almost collapsed, and he scolded without thinking about it: "What are you talking nonsense!" What doesn't die! In the future, you don't have to mention a word to me! ”

His hand trembled slightly twice, and this subtle change fell on Yan Xiaoyi's hand, and the tip of his nose couldn't help but be sore.

But her complexion remained the same, and she deliberately became more coquettish than she usually had: "Why are you murdering me, I didn't say anything!" ”

She glanced at Baili Ye Su: "Anyway, although I have been given a Gu now, you also said that this Gu. It will take 7749 days for the poison to attack! Even if there is no antidote, he will live to ninety-nine eighty-one days, nearly three months, are you still worried that you can't find that 'Yan Zifu'? ”

"Besides", Yan Xiaowei blinked her eyelashes and reached out to stroke Rong Xiu's big hand: "That person has fallen under the Gu, obviously asking me to beg him!" When the time comes, he will definitely come to me if he doesn't go. Anyway, I'm not worried that I won't be able to find the man. Therefore, it is important to go to Nanling now. First, you can explore the situation of the mysterious mountain villa, find out the whereabouts of the granddaughter of the former Taifu, and second, you can also find out whether that Yan Zifu is with the mysterious mountain villa. If it's a group, it can also take my Gu by the way. The poison is detoxified, which can be regarded as killing two birds with one stone! ”

Rong Xiu's five fingers opened and Yan Xiaoyi's ten fingers were tightly locked, and the corners of his mouth were tightened: "What if, not only did you not find Master Li Quanwen's granddaughter, but also wasted your time?" He suddenly sat up straight and looked ahead with burning eyes: "No, I have to write to the emperor to ask for guilt, and ask him to send another person to rescue Master Li Quanwen's granddaughter, I want to track down the whereabouts of that Yan Zifu wholeheartedly, and I must not let you make the slightest mistake!" ”

Yan Xiaoyan hurriedly pulled his hand: "Why do you look like this!" You didn't listen to me for a long time! You said that the emperor handed over this task to you, but you didn't do it, so it was handed over again, how can the emperor entrust him with a big task in the future! I don't agree, I must not let you cut off your future because of my business! ”

Rong Xiu controlled and controlled, and finally couldn't help but explode emotionally. He stood up abruptly, walked over to the table and slammed it down! I only heard a "bang", and the table was split in two, and it was split in two at once!

There was an obscure look in his eyes, like clusters of small flames flickering: "Why don't you understand! What is the future, if there is no you, everything is meaningless! ”

He suddenly strode over and hugged her shoulders and grabbed her whole person!

Rong Xiu hugged her tightly, his eyes lowered, and he found that his hands around her waist couldn't stop trembling, and he pressed one hand on the other, but he still couldn't control it. He couldn't help but smile bitterly, he Rong Xiu had been going into battle with his father to kill the enemy since he was a teenager, he had seen all kinds of bloody rain, and he had never imagined that he was so scared!

Baili Ye Su looked at the two people hugging each other, tilted his head slightly, lowered his head and thought for a while, and suddenly frowned: "Xiao Qian, do you remember that when I was in Qingyun Mountain last time, I was also hit by Gu in my body, and later it was an old woman in the forest who solved it for me!" You say, if you go to her, will you be saved? ”

As soon as the words fell, Rong Xiu's eyes suddenly lit up, and his eyes widened suddenly: "The old woman on Qingyun Mountain? Then let's hurry north! ”

Yan Xiaowei pressed Rong Xiu, who was about to get up: "Don't worry, that old woman has a strange temper, I'm afraid it's not so easy to find her." "First, I don't know if she's still on the mountain, and second, she's also worried about Rong Xiu!

She is now in her body. poison, I really want to come up with a way to save it as soon as possible. However, on the other hand, I was afraid that Rong Xiu would be in a dilemma because of her and delay her business.

Baili Ye Su seemed to see her troubles, and put his fist to his mouth and coughed lightly: "You two just go, it's better to leave the matter here to me!" ”

Yan Xiaowei was stunned: "How can this work?" The mysterious forces are so complicated, and I still can't figure out what is hidden behind them! You are the prince, if something happens, how can we explain to the emperor! ”

Baili Ye Su smiled warmly at her: "You also underestimate me too much, I have no mother since I was a child, and I have always grown up watching other people's eyes." I've seen a lot of open and secret battles, and those people can deal with me so easily! ”

He sighed lightly: "You can let Ah Xiu accompany you to the north with peace of mind!" Go and find the old woman, and I, and at the same time send someone to find the whereabouts of the man, and do both at the same time, without delay! ”

Yan Xiaoyi wanted to say something, but was interrupted by him waving his hand: "You don't have to say anything, it's decided!" With that, he looked at the sky and stood up from his chair: "Ruixiang was frightened today, and she hasn't slept very well, and it's not too early now, I'll go see her!" ”

As he spoke, he walked out of the room.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps outside.

Then, a young general pushed open the door and stood at the door with a sigh of relief.

Rong Xiu was stunned for a moment, then frowned, and scolded coldly: "What are you doing in such a hurry, is there a ghost behind you?" ”

The young general raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his forehead: "Hui, Hui, General, big news!" ”

Rong Xiu glanced at him and raised his eyebrows: "What big news?" If you can't tell you one, two, or three today, just wait to go back and get thirty military sticks!" ”

The young general ran in a hurry, and in the winter, there was a hot sweat that was rolling down his forehead. However, as soon as he heard Rong Xiu's words, he didn't have time to wipe it, and hurriedly replied: "Little General, our group of six people just patrolled along the streets of the county seat, and when we walked to South Street, we suddenly heard a cry of 'woo' from a private house!" Xiao Lizi and I decided that something was wrong, so we walked to the door, kicked the door, and asked! Who knew that no one in it answered, and then the crying would be louder! ”

He paused: "As a result, we kicked the door open and entered, guess what?" ”

Rong Xiu's face turned cold, and his tone sank: "Can you finish the words in one go, don't sell me Guanzi!" ”

The young general was not annoyed when he heard this, but slapped his two hands, and there was a joy on his face that could not be hidden: "As soon as we entered, we found that it was full of sacks, and there were dozens of them!" What's even more amazing is that each one moves! That whining sound came from that sack! As a result, a few of our brothers untied the mouth of the sack, and all of them were big girls with water and spirits! ”

Not only Rong Xiu was this time, but even Baili Ye Su and Yan Xiaoyu were also surprised!

Rong Xiu hurriedly asked, "How can there be people in the sack?" Who are they, did you bring them back? ”

The young general hurriedly replied: "There is a girl in our patrol who knows one of them, and that girl is the daughter of the missing coal boss on West Street before!" As soon as we asked, we found out that these girls were basically the ones who disappeared some time ago in our bagpipe abyss! ”

Seeing that Rong Xiu's face changed suddenly, he hurriedly said: "Because there are too many people, a few of us split up, they are looking at those women on South Street, I will run back to deliver the message first!" Look, General, what should be done about this? ”

Rong Xiu raised his eyebrows: "I have been tracking for so long before, and these missing women have not been found, but now, dozens of people have suddenly appeared, it is really suspicious!" What kind of calculations are those people having? ”

Baili Ye Su walked over, glanced at him, and couldn't help but ask the young general standing at the door: "Have you checked the identities of those women?" Is there Li Qiange, the granddaughter of Lord Li Quanwen, in it? ”

The young general shook his head: "The little one is in a hurry to report the news, and he hasn't had time yet!" Your Highness the Nine, little general, do you want to go and have a look? ”

Rong Xiu glanced at the young general: "Of course I want to go!" By the way, who is that private house, call someone to me! ”

The young general nodded hurriedly: "Yes!" ”

Rong Xiu put on a big coat, looked back and saw that Yan Xiaoyun was lifting the quilt to get out of bed, and hurriedly walked over and pressed her shoulder: "It's too late, you can rest!" His Highness and I rushed to deal with it, and I'll be back soon! ”

Yan Xiaowei stretched out her hand and grabbed the corner of his clothes: "You just let me go with you, otherwise I will have to think crankily again if I am left here alone!" ”

Rong Xiu glanced at the bracelet on her wrist, lowered his eyes, and reached out to take the fox fur on the side and draped it on her shoulder: "That's good, but once you feel unwell, you must tell me as soon as possible!" "Although that Gu. The poison is said to be revealed on the forty-ninth day, but no one can guarantee that anything will change halfway.

Seeing his overly nervous expression, Yan Xiaoyan couldn't help but feel sad and sweet, and hurriedly reached out to grab the corner of the fox fur and shrank his whole person in.

At this time, although it was already the dead of night, because there were many small soldiers and young soldiers out of the hole, the old and young men and women of South Street heard the movement and couldn't help but come to join in the fun. More people, because they lost their own girls, heard that dozens of girls were locked up here, Tete rushed to recognize their relatives, and for a while the alley that was not very spacious became more crowded. There is an endless stream of discussions around, calling the cries of their own daughters!

Seeing a few people coming, everyone recognized Rong Xiu, and couldn't help but hug over: "Little general, please make the decision for us, return our daughter!" Find out the real murderer as soon as possible! ”

Rong Xiu's temper responded one by one: "Fellow villagers, don't worry, I will definitely give you an explanation!" ”

As he spoke, the guards hurriedly dodged and made a way.

Rong repaired his clothes, and the whole person walked into this private house.

It is an old-fashioned warehouse, and it is said that the owner of the house was originally a rice merchant, and it was used to store rice grain. Later, business was sluggish, and the place was vacated, and it was rented to a merchant in Aoi Province last month.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw a few famous women squatting in the corner of the wall on the right side of the room, all of them trembling, although they were wearing uniform clothes, but almost everyone was disgraced and embarrassed.

Pan Shu was holding the roster of missing girls and checking the names and appearances of people one by one, and when he saw Rong Xiu and others entering the door, he nodded hurriedly.

Rong Xiu walked over and asked in a deep voice, "How is it, are all the people right?" ”

Pan Shu pointed to some of them: "This side is all on the roster, and this side has not been checked yet!" However, after counting, the number of people here is the same as the number of missing girls in the bagpipe abyss, and it should be those people who sent them back intact! ”

Rong Xiu waved at him and motioned for him to continue.

Pan Shu hurriedly checked the next person according to the roster: "Li Minzhi!" ”

A small thin figure hurriedly raised his hand, and Nuo Nuo replied: "It's me!" ”

Yan Xiaowei saw that these women were more or less frightened to varying degrees, and all of them had gloomy faces, like frightened rabbits, and their expressions were panicked. Only one of the women, leaning against the corner of the wall, was standing. Her face was dirty, but her eyes were exceptionally clear, like a sika deer, and she kept looking at Rong Xiu and a few people.

Unlike the other women, this person appeared extraordinarily calm. It's as if all this around her has nothing to do with her.

After a while, Pan Shu pointed to the last person in the album and asked, "Li Qiange?" ”

Only then did she move, and raised her hand a little lazily: "It's me!" "The wrists are very fair.

Pan Shujian frowned: "You are the granddaughter of the former Taifu Li Quanwen?" can be regarded as finding you, you don't know, since I knew that you were gone, even the emperor and the queen mother were alarmed! ”

Li Qiange raised the corners of his lips slightly: "Yes, then Qiange would like to thank the emperor and the queen for their concern!" ”

Rong Xiu stepped forward, his eyes swept over the faces of the women, and finally landed on Li Qiange's face: "Can you tell me how you all disappeared in the first place, and how did you spend this period of disappearance?" Why did it suddenly come back now? ”

As soon as the words fell, the other women were all distracted, and even worse, as if they had imagined something terrible, they all began to cry one by one.

A woman is delicate and pitiful when she cries, but if dozens of women cry together, it will be like a sudden flash flood that has burst the embankment!

Pan Shu was hurt by their crying, and couldn't help but twist his thick eyebrows: "I said you guys, why are you crying, now you are all back, and you are safe!" If you don't explain everything that happened, so that we can catch the bad guys as soon as possible and avenge you! ”

Although the words are very reasonable, but he is in the barracks all the year round, and he faces some rough old men, and these little girls cry even more when they hear it!

Pan Shu touched his nose helplessly, and asked Rong Xiu for help with a distressed face: "General, look at this ......"

Rong Xiu rubbed his temples with a headache, and was a little embarrassed, when a female voice suddenly spoke.

Everyone looked at it, but it was Li Qiange, only to see her glance at the crying women, and said in a clear voice: "I was knocked unconscious from behind in the alley when I was watching the lanterns in our county town on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival today. When he woke up, he was already in a carriage and waddling through the mountains. ”

Her big pretty eyes blinked: "At that time, it was not only me, but also six or seven sisters here, all huddled together. The carriage was made into an iron cage, with several large locks, and a black curtain on the outside, from which it was impossible to escape. The driver who was driving the car in front didn't say a word to us! ”

Her voice paused, as if she recalled something more painful, and her words suddenly became difficult: "Halfway through, a sister wanted to escape by taking advantage of Xiao Jie's time, but she didn't expect to be caught by the coachman and killed on the spot. For the rest, as long as he was dissatisfied, he fed medicine, took medicine, and couldn't wake up for days and nights. ”

She paused and closed her eyes slightly: "In this way, we were taken to the bottom of a mountain, and then we were blindfolded and walked all over the mountain. When the blindfolded cloth was taken down, I found a mountain villa! ”

She stretched out her hand and gestured around the women: "You can also see that we are all wearing the same clothes, and the people in that mountain villa are almost the same as us." There are probably a few hundred people in the whole villa, like us. However, the steward did not allow us to make small talk, and could only judge from the usual very brief conversations, judging by the accents, these people came from almost all parts of the country, and were girls between the ages of thirteen or fourteen and seventeen or eighteen. ”

"I thought they were going to lock us up," she said, and her tone changed suddenly: "However, after a long time, I found that they had divided us into several groups, some teaching tea art and some teaching qin songs...... I think they might let us learn these things and do things for them. ”

Yan Xiaowei listened, and her heart suddenly moved, it turned out that this Li Qiange was also arrested and taken to that villa to learn things, which is exactly the same as Song Honghua's situation!

Rong Xiu obviously thought of this as well, and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then how did you come back?" Do you remember the location of the lodge? ”

Li Qiange seemed to expect him to ask like this, and spread his hands: "I also think it's strange!" I stayed there for a few months, and suddenly one day, the people in the mountain village disappeared in large numbers! There are fewer and fewer grandmothers in charge. Eventually, the only few dozen sisters left in the villa, after dinner one day, woke up to find someone else in a sack on the road again! ”

As she spoke, she frowned: "It's just that what I didn't expect was that we were actually sent back!" ”

She pursed the corners of her lips solemnly: "The driver who transported us and the people who transported us were extremely cautious, not only did not mention the location of the villa, but also blindfolded us every time, or fed us medicine, so we don't know the specific location." ”

"And", she suddenly raised her head and looked at Rong Xiu fixedly: "I don't think even if you look for it, you won't get anything." From the sudden disappearance of the people in the villa to the fact that we were sent back untouched this time, I think they have stopped! According to the habits of those people, they will not leave you a trace! ”
