Chapter 153: If you care too much, you will lose it

As night fell, torches and lanterns hung in the rubble.

Occasionally, the night breeze blows, bringing out some weirdness.

Lu Zheng didn't go anywhere, just sat on the big stone in front of the collapsed thatched house, waiting to interrogate the mothers-in-law.

"Temple...... My lord, underneath this stone...... It's all white bones! Look at the skeleton is not big......"

"Bastard!" Li Xuan was angry, and he had nowhere to vent his anger, although the whole person was still handsome, but it seemed to be a different person, his whole body was tense, like a bow ready to be fired, and like a cloud condensed before the storm.

The atmosphere was oppressive and stagnant.

As soon as a few mothers-in-law were escorted up, they saw that the Lord Lu was cold all over his body, and he was ruthless, so he wanted to eat a few of them alive, and before others could speak, they fell to the ground.

Don't threaten, just tell the truth: "Tell me everything you know, or not......"

"We're all recruiting, we're all recruiting! Spare your life! ”

"All moves, all moves!"

Most of them were born in Goulan, and because of their old age and decay, they were bought here by the Zhao brothers to teach the kidnapped children, and they beat and scolded these children at every turn on weekdays, and they didn't have much pity, but they were not good people.

But the wicked are also afraid of the crossover, not to mention that Lord Lu doesn't need the guards mentioned behind him, he can freeze people to death just sitting there.

Several mothers-in-law gossiped, but the dumb woman looked at Shen Qiutan silently, and after a while, things had a rough outline:

It turns out that this Anfu is just an ordinary kidnapping den, and the kidnapped children are either sold to Qinglou or sold to large families, only making money without asking where they return, until five years ago, the Zhao brothers collected the original traffickers, and the abductors are still done, but there are some other names, such as:

Collect outstanding-looking young children from all over the world, train them from an early age, and send them to the house of the "key person" in the whole Huainan when they are old enough to "contact feelings"; The ordinary-looking children were thrown to the medicine woman, tried the medicine and alchemy, and those who couldn't survive and died, so they were buried on the spot.

These mothers-in-law knew that there was a medicine woman living in the garden behind, but they didn't know what the medicine woman looked like, and they didn't know what kind of medicine she practiced.

What they came into contact with, including the ones added to the previous meal and used by Zhao Wen, were all provided by the medicine woman.

The medicated steamed meat cake has two uses, one is to make these children addicted, and when this addiction becomes a drug that cannot be stopped, when they all grow up, they will not be able to escape the palm of the Zhao brothers; The second is the strange smell of the small porcelain bottle that Zhao Wen used before, as long as it is a child who has eaten steamed meatloaf, as soon as he asks about the taste, he will lose his mind for a short time, like walking with a corpse, let it be taken.

This was originally intended to control those who were unwilling to give in even if they were addicted, but I didn't expect the effect to be excellent, and the usefulness gradually increased.

Listening to the mothers-in-law's bamboo tube pouring beans, not only Li Xuan, but also Qin Feng and Mung Bean hated itchy, there are such unconscionable animals in the world!

"How many children have you abducted over the years?"

"About...... It's about a thousand......"

"Yang Xun Lao'er, it should be dragged out and the car cracks!" Li Xuan was furious, in his previous life, he only knew about the corruption case in Huainan Road, but he didn't know that there were still these filthy things hidden in the glamorous city of Yangzhou.

Yang Xun is a dignified court official and an important member of one party, and he actually did such a thing that is inferior to a beast.

This Huainan is already rotten to the roots, and the court is also a miasma.

He remembered the group of people who assassinated him and Lu Zheng before, including his good third brother Zhao Wang, as well as the great eunuch Qiu Yuanzhen, and even a group of unknown ......

Everybody wants to eradicate dissent, everybody wants to reap the benefits, everybody wants to die.

They all thought that this Huainan corruption case was just a scabies sore, but they didn't know that it was inside the hair and shook the country's foundation!

Is this Daning that he wants to save?

Li Qian closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, all his emotions had been restrained, and his voice was calm and restrained: "Can the medicine woman be found?" ”

"Returning to my lordship, not yet."

"Look for it again."

"Yes!"

"Qin Feng, you personally brought Zhao Wen to trial, as long as you don't die, you will be punished with any heavy punishment."

"Yes! Subordinates obey! ”

Someone took a cloak to put on Li Xuan, he felt a little cold, and saw Shen Qiutan puffing out his bun face, staring at the mother-in-law angrily, and pulled her to his side: "You guys go and rest, this is not something you can see." ”

Shen Qiutan shook her head, she could actually help him investigate the case, but just now she held the hand of a mother-in-law, but she didn't react.

Maybe it was this "ability", she thought, and the frequency of use of it on a daily basis was also limited.

"Ahem...... Li Qi coughed twice, and his voice softened: "Go ahead." "Youkai also want to rest, right?

"I'm not sleepy, these people are helping to do evil...... "Suddenlyβ€”

"Be careful, sir!"

Li Qi hugged Shen Qiutan and retreated, "Boom" two cold arrows shot at the stone he had originally made, Li Qi had a cold face: "Chase!" ”

"Protect your lordship!" Qin Lang was not there, Qin Feng was the leader of all the remaining soldiers and guards, he led people to surround Li Xuan, and personally picked up the arrow: "Quenched poison." ”

Mung Dou, who was still investigating around, advised: "My lord, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, why don't you go back first, and leave the rest to your subordinates." ”

Li Qian put Shen Qiutan down, but did not speak, and after a while, a man was escorted back.

Qin Lang unveiled his masked scarf, it was none other than Zhao Wen's good brother, Zhao Wu.

"It's a pity that another one ran away."

"What do you mean?" When Mung Bean asks questions, it is often the details that he pays the most attention to.

"Not tall, very thin, quick and dexterous...... Looks a little like a woman......"

Shen Qiutan's figure suddenly appeared in her heart, but after all, she didn't see it with her own eyes, so it was not easy to make a conclusion. Moreover, a wave of fatigue gradually swelled up, and she was very sleepy now.

She rubbed her eyes, pulled Li Li's sleeve, Li Qi rubbed her head, and asked left and right: "Lin Quan?" ”

"The subordinates are here!" An inconspicuous guard stepped out of the crowd.

Li Qian nodded: "You take her and His Royal Highness the Prince back to the house first, and then choose a team of people to personally protect their safety, there is no room for mistakes." ”

"Yes!"

Lin Quan picked up Li Chong, who had fallen asleep a long time ago, and then looked at Shen Qiutan, Shen Qiutan endured his sleepiness and asked Li Qi: "What about you!" Your body ......"

After saying that, I regretted it a little, and I really lost it if I said too much.

Why do you need to remind yourself? Wouldn't that make it easier to show your stuffing?

But I'm very tired, and I always have to make some mistakes.

"No problem." Li Qian untied the cloak and wrapped her, and pinched her fat face, only after pinching did she feel that this action was a little too familiar, so she pretended to be casual and said, "Go down." ”

The dark cloak was huge, and Shen Qiutan was wrapped into a fat round zongzi, and at a rough look, no one knew that there was a person hidden in it.

Shen Qiutan, who was completely wrapped in darkness, suddenly had a flash of inspiration in her mind, she temporarily retreated from sleep, and said, "That's not right! ”
