Early the next morning, Liu Yifan and Luo Ying got into the city in an ox cart.

first found Liu Xiaoyong, told Liu Xiaoyong his analysis and ideas, and then Liu Xiaoyong took them to find He Dawu.

As soon as He Dawu heard that the little benefactor's younger brother had been kidnapped, of course he was obliged to help.

"I have a brother named Ma Monkey, this guy is clever, he used to be a pickpocket, he has collected the mountains in the past few years, if you want to step on some reconnaissance or something, he is the best, I told him to go." He Dawu said.

"Then thank you Uncle He, after the matter is completed, I will definitely not treat Uncle He and your brother badly!" Luo Ying said.

"Without further ado, I'll go to him." After speaking, He Dawu left.

"Yingzi, are you really going to pay the money alone?" Liu Xiaoyong was a little worried.

"Uncle Xiao Yong, don't worry! I, Luo Ying, am not a vegetarian either! ”

Seeing Luo Ying's confident appearance, Liu Xiaoyong didn't say much, but he was still muttering in his heart, what magic weapon does this Yingzi have?

At the end of the afternoon, He Dawu and Ma Monkey returned.

Luo Ying saw a lean man beside He Dawu, and guessed that this should be a horse monkey.

"This must be Big Brother Ma." Liu Yifan stepped forward and shouted with his hands in fists like Jianghu people.

"What Brother Ma? You should call Uncle Ma, call me Uncle and call him Brother, what a mess of generations. He Dawu said dissatisfied.

"This horse...... Uncle is so young, call him uncle, doesn't he call him old. Luo Ying argued.

"Alright, alright, hurry up and get down to business." Liu Xiaoyong said, "I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”

At this time, the horse monkey told them about the investigation near Shilipo.

There is a pavilion in Shilipo, and it is a fork in the road, thinking about this kidnapper is not without brains, the place to choose the transaction is at night, it is still at the foot of a mountain, no one lives, and it is a fork in the road, in case Luo Ying brings a helper, they can escape, it is really smart, the roadside is full of shrubs or grass, or very deep, very good Tibetans.

"Uncle Xiao Yong, Uncle He, the kidnappers will definitely leave from one of the roads after taking the money, and I'm sure that as long as I leave the village, someone will follow me, afraid that I will bring helpers, so I thought, please ask Uncle He to help, send some brothers to hide in these roads near Shilipo early, the kidnappers will always leave after taking the money, no matter which way he escapes, he can be caught by our people." Liu Yifan said.

"That's right, I'll arrange it." He Dawu said.

"It's a little tea money here, it's hard to be a few people on such a hot day...... Belch...... A few uncles wanted to help, but they couldn't repay it, a little tea money, so that they could buy saliva to drink on the road. After Luo Ying finished speaking, she took out four taels of silver.

"What are you doing? Since you call me Uncle He, that is He Dawu's niece, take back the money, I heard that you have made a good dish, and you will make me a delicious meal after the matter is resolved. "He Dawu Dao.

Luo Ying's face was embarrassed.

"What's the matter? I, He Dawu, am not qualified to be your uncle? ”

"No, no, no, of course not!" Luo Ying said, "Then there will be Lao Hebo, when my brother returns safely, I will definitely treat everyone warmly." ”

He Dawu went out, Liu Yifan took out three taels of silver and gave it to Ma Hou'er, "A little heart, thank you Uncle Ma for your help, on such a hot day, buy wine for Uncle Ma to drink." ”

Ma Monkey took the money happily, thinking that these two children were really sensible and had vision.

At this time, Liu Xiaoyong also returned to the yamen, and the kidnapping of the stone had been reported, and now that he had an arrest plan, he naturally wanted to talk to the county magistrate.

Luo Ying and Liu Yifan had just returned to the village, and the village chief, Grandma Li, Grandpa Li, Grandpa Niu, Aunt Xu, the Quanfu brothers, and Erhu, a group of people came to his house to talk about the progress of things.

Liu Yifan and Luo Ying didn't say their plans, they only said that they were pooling money to ransom people now, the kidnappers extorted fifty taels, and Luo Ying went to pay the money to ransom people at night!

When they heard it, they were dumbfounded, fifty taels, who in the village has so much money! Then one by one they were filled with righteous indignation and cursed those kidnappers for not dying well!

"Yingzi, you can make more money if you don't have it, grandma still has some money here, you take it first, and I'll go back and get the money for you." After Grandma Li finished speaking, she got up and went home.

"Yingzi, you also know the situation of Grandpa Niu, the family ...... However, if you need a contribution, Grandpa Niu can. ”

"Thank you, Grandpa Niu."

Grandpa Niu took the initiative to accompany them to find stones yesterday, and Luo Ying and Liu Yifan remembered this kindness!

It is said that adversity sees the truth, at this time Grandma Li is actually willing to help, Liu Yifan and Luo Ying were very moved, in contrast, Luo Fu is still the second uncle of the stone, but at the moment of crisis, the lion opened his mouth and made ill-gotten gains, Lin's mother didn't even show his face, and the eyes of the masses were bright, so the unfavorable rumors about them in the village increased again, and they also spread to other villages, and the family that was originally talking about marriage with Luo Xiaoyan also decisively refused the family matter, saying that they did not want to marry with unkind and unrighteous people. The Luo family is trembling in anger! felt that Luo Ying and Liu Yifan were taking revenge on them and deliberately orchestrating them, Luo Xiaoyan had cursed Luo Ying thousands of times in her heart!

After everyone left, the village chief asked, "Fifty taels of silver, how much are you missing?" ”

"Village Chief, there were a lot of people just now, so I can't say it, I suspect that someone from the village or someone else kidnapped my brother." Luo Ying said her guess.

After listening to Luo Ying's words, the village chief didn't think about it, it seemed that it was really the people in the village who did it.

"And what are you going to do?" The village chief asked.

Liu Yifan lowered his voice and told the village chief: "We have discussed it with He Bo and Xiao Yong. ”

Because now the object of suspicion is the people in the village, and he is afraid that the wall will have ears, the village chief will not ask more, but only say: "If you have difficulties, just speak!" ”

sent the village chief away, and now he just waits for dark, and when it gets dark, Luo Ying will take an ox cart to Shilipo. But the closer to the time of the transaction, the more nervous Luo Ying became.
