Chapter 391: Something Strange
The doctor nodded and said, "This girl is in good health, everything is normal, and there is nothing unusual. ”
It wasn't until they heard that the doctor was sure that Wang Youhe was all right, and everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately afterwards, the doctor successively checked the pulse of Wangshu and Huali and confirmed that everything was normal for the two of them without the slightest damage.
Xiao Man asked Pearl to send the doctor to rest, after all, he had to help the people of the Huali Caravan to check the pulse later.
At this time, the people sent by Lu Li to pick up the Huali caravan also returned, and they also brought back all those goods.
"Xiaoman, you take Wangshu and Miss Wang to rest first, and I'll take care of the rest." As he spoke, Lu Li helped Hua Li to get up, ready to get up and go to the front yard to see the goods and others.
Xiao Man wanted to refute, but when she got up and saw Wang Youhe's pale face, as well as Wangshu's tired little face in her arms, her heart softened, and she agreed to this request.
In fact, the main purpose of the bandits is Wang Youhe and Huali, and they are not very interested in these goods, so these goods and guys are fine, except for a few martial arts masters who are injured, everyone else is fine.
Before the doctor he had invited had left, Lu Li instructed a few servants to help the injured brother to the guest room to rest, while he stepped forward with Hua Li and the rest of the caravan to open the box containing the goods and prepare to inspect the goods.
There are not many things shipped from Shangjing this time, and the clothes of the Manrou Garment Workshop account for a large proportion, and they are still the most valuable and valuable items in this box, so of course they have to look at the clothes first.
The lock on the box is good, except for a layer of dust on it, the rest of the place is fine, and when I open it again, I see that the clothes inside are neatly placed, and there is no trace of anyone opening it at all.
"It seems that this bandit is really not very interested in this cargo." The guy on the side sighed.
Hua Li chuckled and patted the other party's shoulder casually, "What?" Listening to your tone, it seems that you see that this dress is intact, you are quite sorry? “
"No, no," the fellow waved his hand again and again, explaining, "Lord Huali, I don't mean that much, I just think it's a little strange, don't get me wrong." ”
"Alright, I'm kidding you, I know you didn't mean that." Hua Li said briskly, a smile on his tired face, which looked even more distressing.
But at this time, Lu Li didn't have the heart to look at Hua Li's face, he turned around and opened all the boxes containing the goods to take a look, and found that the thieves had not opened a single box, and the contents were all well placed, which was surprisingly neat.
As soon as the thieves opened their mouths, they asked for so much silver, obviously for money, and they had so many valuable goods in front of them, they didn't even open them to take a look?
It's weird.
"Holley." Lu Li called out to the other party in a deep voice, raised his head to meet the other party's gaze, and asked, "I remember you said that when you were robbed, those bandits knew very well which people in your team were good at martial arts, right?" ”
At this time, Hua Li didn't react, he nodded, "Yes, what's wrong?" ”
Lu Li frowned, feeling more and more that something was wrong, he expressed his doubts, trying to let the other party help him analyze, "Those bandits are stationed on the mountains outside Bei'an City all the year round, how can they know so much?" There are not many people in Bei'an City who are familiar with the manpower of your caravan, how did that gang of bandits know? ”
"Also, don't you think it's strange that these boxes of goods are locked, and any passer-by knows that they must contain something important, and that the thieves who are eager for money have no idea about it, and have not even opened it?"
After Lu Li said this, Holley reacted.
He held his chin, frowned, and stared at the boxes in front of him with a thoughtful look, but he didn't understand it after thinking about it for a long time, and only understood Lu Li's words, and was sure that this time the matter was definitely not simple.
But think about it further, although he is a businessman, although he is respected as an adult, he has no real power in Bei'an City, and because he is in business, he rarely offends people on weekdays, who would deliberately collude with thieves to harm himself?
What's more, those bandits didn't do anything to themselves! Didn't you let yourself go when you took the money? If you really have an enmity with yourself, wouldn't you have solved yourself on the mountain as early as possible?
Thinking of this, Holley shook his head again and again, waved his hand and said, "This... It's too complicated for me to understand. ”
"That's what's weird about this." Lu Li sighed and said, "I thought it was just that someone was jealous of Xiaoman, so she destroyed the vegetables she had worked hard to grow for a long time, but then I learned that you were kidnapped, and later, even Wangshu was taken away......"
As he spoke, Lu Li sighed and shook his head, very helpless: "If it was just an ordinary kidnapping case for money, it would be fine, but this time the incident is obviously aimed at our family, what I'm afraid of is that if those people are not satisfied with 600,000 taels of silver, then-"
Before he finished speaking, Xiao Man's call sounded from not far away, and Lu Li followed the sound and saw that the other party was running in this direction while calling his name, looking very anxious.
Lu Xun tightened, and he didn't care about what he said next, so he pulled out his legs and ran in the direction of Xiaoman.
"What's wrong?" Lu Li frowned and asked.
Xiao Manran was out of breath, she clenched the other party's hand, gasped for a long time before she put her breathing evenly, and said: "I was talking to Wangshu just now, talking about the events of the last few days, and after hearing him say that he was kidnapped, I heard two people talking about something, and I think the content of their discussion may be related to this incident!" Go and hear it! ”
According to Wangshu, because he was very quiet and did not make noise, the two people did not stun him again after he woke up, but locked him in a small black room very casually.
It was precisely because of this that he was able to hear the conversation between the two bandits so easily.
When Lu Li and the others arrived, Wangshu happened to have finished changing his clothes, Xiaoman took a sip of hot tea, and then squatted down, looked at Wangshu with a little excitement, and said, "Wangshu, what did you say to your mother just now, and now tell them again, okay?" ”
Although Wangshu was a little confused about the situation, and he didn't have a good rest for two days, he was a little tired, but he still reacted quickly.
The child took a big sip from the teacup on the side, then cleared his throat and said, "At that time, they exchanged messages with each other outside, and listening to their meaning, it was as if one person went to the suburbs to deliver a letter, and a person came to Fuzhong to drug me and take me away. I wasn't able to know where they were because I was so dazed at the time, but I'm sure they weren't out of town yet. ”
At that time, Wang Shu was locked up in a dark room, although he looked calm on the surface, but in fact, he was very scared in his heart, and the conversation between the two thieves was also a little vague, so he could only recreate the scene at that time according to his own speculation and vaguely remembered the content.
Looking at Wangshu's serious analysis, Hua Li felt a little funny, but before he could raise the corners of his mouth, he heard Lu Li ask the other party seriously: "Why are you so sure?" ”
"I heard them talking, as if they were afraid that the king would search the city, and they said that they would go out of the city before dawn the next day, and I could certainly guess that I was still in the city at that time, and that they had their own place in the city."
After listening to Wangshu's words, Huali no longer dared to underestimate this child.
However, Lu Li was concentrating on analyzing the situation at that time, and he hadn't noticed the change in Hua Li's eyes before and after, he frowned and thought, and suddenly a flash of inspiration came to mind.
He said, "That little alley we went to this morning! ”
Xiao Man looked sideways, opened his mouth in surprise, and couldn't believe it: "Won't it?" That alley is so close to Miyagi, they don't have the guts of these bandits, right? In case it is discovered, then ......"
"Definitely in that little alley!" Lu Li said firmly, and he got up, "Otherwise, why are they trading in that small alley, is it to provoke Wang Wei?" ”
Speaking of this, Lu Li remembered that when he heard that the bandits had set the deal not far from the palace, he naturally thought that the other party was thoughtful and wanted to challenge authority, but he didn't think about it in this regard.
It was he who was careless, so much so that he deviated the entire direction of the follow-up.
"If it's because it's so simple that the bandits are located near that alley, then we don't have to be afraid of these bandits?" Holley asked.
"It's not." Lu Li shook his head, his face solemn, "Although we have learned the whereabouts of the bandits, there are still many doubts about this matter, and we must not act rashly." ”
As soon as the words fell, Wang Shu suddenly let out an "ah", and then got up, attracting everyone's attention.
He said: "I remember, didn't one of those two people go to the suburbs to deliver a letter? They didn't seem to know that the king had gone to the suburbs, so they were still very surprised, I thought, the little eunuch who changed the king's dictation that my mother said before, has nothing to do with them? Otherwise, how could they not know that the king had gone to the outskirts? ”
Lu Li hurriedly asked: "Wangshu, do you remember it true?" Are you sure? ”
The child nodded firmly, "Absolutely, I did hear someone ask in a shocked tone, saying, 'Why did the king go to the suburbs?' and the other person comforted him, saying, 'The king will know sooner or later, don't be afraid' or something." ”
As soon as he said this, Xiao Man also got up, "That's right! If the little eunuch was theirs, how could they be surprised? ”
"In other words, there are really two parties involved in this matter?"
