From Lingyu's tone, he sounded completely sure, and coupled with the experience of living in the mixed dungeon of Chi Rumyr for as long as he could remember, everyone felt more and more that his idea made some sense.

Coincidentally, when the owner of the Sparrow Hotel looked through the check-in book in his hand, he found that there was a room that had been vacant lately, and this room happened to be at the end of the corridor on the second floor, where there was a window that did not face the lively alley, and it must be convenient to use this window to transfer people if they were to be confused.

The room is not large, with only a single bed, which also meets the needs of the snow rabbit. The donkey-faced boss opened the door, and judging by the messy beds in the room, this room should have been occupied before.

"Are the rooms in the hotel cleaned every day?" Ling Yu asked after observing the situation in the room.

"Don't think we're just a small hotel, but as long as it's not a guest with special requests, we clean it every day!" The donkey-faced boss replied to him with some smugness.

Xia Qiu suddenly noticed something flashing in front of her eyes on the floor, she took a closer look, and found that it was a small and delicate pin, so she said, "This is ......"

"I recognize this clover-shaped pin, it's a snow hare. This pin was made for her by Grandpa Yong on the Snow Rabbit's birthday, and it shouldn't be possible to buy it outside, and it doesn't fall off so easily, so I guess she probably encountered some emergency. Ouyang Xiaoleng analyzed.

As a result, the innkeeper thought that he had made a big deal and was so frightened that he almost spread it on the ground, and shouted: "This is bad, is it really my buddy's troublemaker?!" ”

"Do you know where that guy of yours might be going?" Qianqi asked the donkey-faced boss.

"This ...... He usually lives in the store, so I really don't know where he's going to go outside of here. The donkey-faced boss replied tremblingly.

"Ugh." Seeing that the clue that he had finally found was also broken, Qianqi sighed and said, "It seems that that fellow is probably a slave trader, and Snow Hale may have been taken out of the city by him." ”

"Ling Yu, when you dealt with those slave traders before, did you hear where they usually traded?" Ouyang Xiaoleng still seemed very composed, continuing to analyze all kinds of possibilities.

"If you want me to think, the first one is Miancheng, and then Dongyao and other places." After Ling Yu answered, he said, "But I have a hunch that they shouldn't leave Yongchuan so soon!" ”

"You're saying they're still around here?!" Thousand Riders suddenly came to the spirit again.

"Exactly! We might as well look for clues in the city tonight, and if we don't have anything to gain, we'll set off for Miancheng and other places early tomorrow morning! Ling Yu suggested to everyone.

"It's good!" Ouyang Xiaoleng agreed.

"But I have another idea, I wonder what you think?" Ling Yu's eyes rolled, and he had a plan.

"What?! Tell me about it. Ouyang Xiaoleng turned to him and asked.

"I would have said that they might not leave so quickly, but I guessed by chance, because he, the slave traders, would never kidnap just one or two girls everywhere they went, so it is likely that they would still be lurking somewhere in the city, continuing to look for a suitable target. If this is really the case I thought, then Sister Xia and I can pretend to be girls walking alone on the street and lure the snake out of the hole, while the two of you are responsible for keeping an eye on the two of us in the neighborhood and supporting us at any time, what do you think? After Ling Yu finished saying his own thoughts, he looked at the other people.

"Isn't that too dangerous? If you accidentally let them tie Xia Qiu up again, wouldn't it be even worse?! Qianqi couldn't help but worry about Xia Qiu's safety.

"I also think something is wrong......" Ouyang Xiaoleng was also a little shaken.

"I think it's a good idea, or just do what Lingyu says." Xia Qiu agreed with Ling Yu's idea without thinking about it, she felt that if the snow rabbit was really taken away by the slave traders, it would be very dangerous, and besides, it was likely that she was not the only girl who was captured, no matter what the method was at this time, it was worth trying.

Ouyang Xiaoleng and Qianqi knew that they couldn't screw Xia Qiu, so the four of them decided to split into two groups and start acting, Ouyang Xiaoleng was responsible for protecting Xia Qiu, and Qianqi was responsible for following Ling Yu. Ling Yu returned to Chenji Palace at a very fast speed and changed into women's clothes, and applied a little powder, but immediately became a beautiful girl with a graceful demeanor.

"Don't say it, your look is really deceitful!" Qianqi looked at him from top to bottom in a daze, and then said, he couldn't help but remember that when he first met Lingyu in Chi Mir, for a long time they all thought that this young man was a daughter.

"It's hard to give up on being beautiful!" Lingyu tucked his belly and straightened his chest, like a proud peacock responding to him, and his voice became very thin.

"But because I already know that you are actually male, I ......" Qianqi pouted, and stopped talking.

"So what?!" Ling Yu asked with a blank look.

"So it's kind of disgusting!" After saying this, Qianqi stuck out his tongue at him.

The two teams of them walked in opposite directions on the streets of the royal city, although it was already very late, but because they were sure that Ouyang Xiaoleng was behind them, Xia Qiu was not so afraid. After leaving the shopping street, the further you walked, the more desolate it became, except for the accident of your own slender shadow under the street lamp, there was no one on the street.

Xia Qiu is very sympathetic to what happened to Snow Rabbit, but she also understands that sympathy alone is not enough to heal the scars in Snow Rabbit's heart, if she is Snow Rabbit, she probably doesn't want anyone to look at her with sympathy. At this time, what they can do for her may be to trust her as before, and be by her side and give her strength.

Xia Qiu's memories of her mother are limited to photographs, her smile is quiet and pale, frozen in those small images, as if all her vitality has been robbed. People don't specifically mention her mother's affairs, perhaps because they are afraid that she will feel sad because of it, and she herself will not deliberately ask.

But deep in her heart, she still misses her. She couldn't imagine how terrible it would be to learn that her mother had killed her father, but Snow Rabbit, who was about her age, had to face such a problem.

Thinking like this, she looked even more forward to the sooner appearance of the people who had taken the snow rabbit, and before she knew it, her pace quickened, and she swayed into a fork in the road. Ouyang Xiaoleng felt that he had lost her in the blink of an eye. By the time he found the fork in the road, she was gone.

"Summer and Autumn ......" he called out to her, but got no response.

Probably at the same time as realizing that she would walk into a strange fork in the road, Xia Qiu clearly knew that she was stunned by something, the smell of the powder was very fragrant, like the fragrance of a flower, but the medicinal effect was very strong, so that she was powerless to resist.

When she woke up again, her first reaction was that she felt that she could not breathe, and then there was a stuffy heat that surrounded her. She soon found herself in a sack, her mouth stuffed with rags, and her hands and feet tied tightly.

"Alas, although the hotel is not burned, we can be regarded as having a harvest!"

"This ...... It's a human, isn't it?! It's the first time I've seen it......"

"In short, rare things are expensive, and it is estimated that they can be sold for a good price!"

"Didn't you say it before...... That thing! ”

"Haha, I know you can't forget, let's say, which one do you like?"

"It's the first time I've seen a human, or ......"

While the two were talking, Xia Qiu quietly summoned Mei Blade to break the rope tied to his wrist. Then she waited for the man to untie the sack and stabbed forward, the blade of her hand just in the chest of the slave trader who had been in the Sparrow Hotel as a companion.

"Ahh

After a hoarse scream, the slaver she stabbed fell face to her, and the sack she was wearing fell off completely at the same time. She had barely dodged the lifeless slave trader when another slashed at her with a dagger in his hand.

She lifted her still-bound feet, kicked the other man in the abdomen, then lifted the rope from her feet, and leaped forward, striking the knife sideways at his neck.

"Woman, spare your life!" The slave trader, who was afraid of hard food, begged her loudly for mercy.

"Spare you?!" Xia Qiu looked back at the several sacks piled up behind him and said, "You let these people go first!" ”

"Good!" The man, tall and strong, was not very bold, and he untied all the sacks that had been piled up, and cut the ropes that bound the girls' hands and feet.

Xia Qiu recognized the snow rabbit who was still in a coma at a glance, and hurriedly called, "Snow rabbit, can you hear me?" ”

"Sister Xia Qiu!" The snow rabbit slowly opened her eyes and suddenly cried when she saw Xia Qiu.

"Don't be afraid, Xiao Leng, they will come in a while." Xia Qiu gently stroked the snow rabbit's hair and comforted her.

And the slave trader wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but before he could take two steps, he was blocked by Xia Qiu's plum blade in the back.

"Want to run?!" Xia Qiu scolded loudly.

"No, you have to be careful, woman! The knife is not long-sighted, we are just seeking money, and we have never harmed our lives! The slave trader begged her.

Xia Qiu didn't pay attention to him, but looked around at the slave trader's lair. It was supposed to be a warehouse, with a lot of wooden chests piled up next to it, and the pile of straw behind it was probably the slave trader's makeshift bed, and the six girls who had been in the sacks before seemed to have not been in a drop of water for days.

"Is there any water?" She asked the slave traders.

"Yes!" The slave trader nodded in response.

"Give them some water!" Xia Qiu pointed to the six girls on the ground and commanded.
