Two quarters of an hour, outside the West City Gate, there shouldn't be a timeout, right?

I stopped, bent down and gasped. It's a mile away from the city gate, and I stayed here the last time I sent my heart out of the city. On weekdays, there are more people entering and leaving the city in the morning and evening, and at this time, there are few people on the official road.

What about Wang Jiamei?

I continued to walk forward, looking at the hillside trails on either side, and found nothing out of the ordinary. Is it still ahead? I remember that there is a large bamboo forest on Liangli Road further on, and in the spring of this year, Wang Jiajia and I also came to break bamboo shoots.

"Hmm...... Hmmm......"

Finally, I heard movement, as if someone was desperately crying for help after their mouth was covered.

"Jiajia! Allison! ”

I shouted, and ran towards the grove next to me. It rained a little last night, and the surrounding weeds were still wet, and the autumn leaves were falling, and every step down, you could smell a smell of rotting leaves mixed with earth.

bypassed a bush, and sure enough, I saw Wang Jiajia's figure. She was still wearing her favorite red dress, tied to a tree, with a ball of cloth stuffed in her mouth, and her cheeks bulging. She tried to shake her head, trying to spit out the ball, but she couldn't. Her eyes were full of horror and a bit of despair, which made people feel very distressed.

I clenched my fists hard, trying to control the urge to rush through, the pain of my nails digging into my flesh kept me to the last of my senses.

What to do?

I just felt like a mess in my head.

As far as I could see, there was only Wang Jiajia. Who tied her up here? What is the purpose of them calling me here through this indiscriminate tactic?

"Woo woo......" Wang Jiajia raised her head and desperately called for help.

This humble cry for help made my heart tighten. I think she must have been very uncomfortable, and she must have longed for someone to save her.

"Jiajia!"

Without thinking too much, I cried out and ran over, holding her head with both hands, and helping her pull the cloth out of her mouth.

"Brother Jianghu, why are you here? Leave me alone, you go! Wang Jiajia gasped twice, her eyes were full of surprise and relief, and then she was full of worry.

"Don't be afraid! I'm here to save you! I comforted Wang Jiajia, but my heart was even more panicked, and my hands trembled so much that I couldn't even untie the knots that tied them. Because I knew the kidnappers must be hiding nearby, but they just didn't show up.

"It's coming, it's on time." Sure enough, a rough voice laughed.

My hand stopped, and I looked timidly, and saw two men dressed in black with black ghost masks standing five paces away from us, each holding a large knife in their hands.

"You ...... Who is it? What do you want to do? I asked as hard as I could, only to feel sweat running down my sideburns.

"Hahaha, I have the guts, I'm really going to the appointment alone!" Another man appeared from behind the grass with a pace, although he was also dressed in black, but the ghost head mask on his face was red, and he did not have a knife in his hand, he should have been the leader of the two men, and the words he just said about my punctuality should have come from his mouth.

"Let me go!" Wang Jiajia shouted at the three of them, and I also tried to untie the rope on her hand.

"Just such an ugly monster is worth your rescue?" The red-faced ghost took two more steps forward, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and said in a deliberately suppressed voice, his words full of contempt.

I am very angry in my heart, Wang Jiajia did affect her appearance because of the scar on her face, but she is by no means ugly. But even if it's not good-looking, what's the matter with him? I can dislike her, but I will never allow others to insult her to her face.

I finally untied the rope, rubbed Wang Jiajia's wrists, took her hand and glared at the three people in front of me: "Let us go!" ”

I know it's a bit weak, how can they listen to me? However, in terms of momentum, you must not lose. I tried to compose myself, and pretended to be calm as I glanced over the three of them, waiting for their decision.

"Hehehe." The red-faced ghost head smiled, stretched out his fingers, and flicked sideways on the big knife of the ghost head on the left, the blade trembled, and a terrifying cold light flashed.

Wang Jiajia's hand trembled slightly, and her other hand also held my arm: "Brother Jianghu." ”

"Don't be afraid." I comforted, raising my voice and shouting to the three of them, "What the hell do you want? ”

"Hahahaha, how about making a friend?" The red-faced ghost replied.

"Making friends?"

Wang Jiajia and I glanced at each other, never expecting him to say this.

After a period of nervousness just now, I have already figured it out, they shouldn't kill us, or they are sure they would have done it a long time ago, why do you need to tie up Wang Jiajia first, and then lure me over?

I think they want to use Wang Jiajia to coerce me to do something for them, and it's not a good thing. I'm afraid it's against Qincha, anyway, it's not beneficial to Xiangzhou.

"That's right. We've been watching you for a while, and you're quite likable, so we secretly invited you over, it's quiet and convenient for us to chat. ”

I took a deep breath and raised my arm to wipe the sweat from my face: "What do you want to say?" ”

"Cooperation!"

Cooperate? What do you mean? Are they trying to pull me into being a traitor?

Although he couldn't see his face, his eyes were a little familiar, as if he had seen it somewhere, but it was not Yang Mosheng. Is it another batch of fine works? Perhaps, it was Xiao Mu who sent me to assess me?

"Born and raised in Xiangzhou, there is a widowed mother at home to support, he is honest, an ordinary small trader......" The red-faced ghost said, circled around the two of us, and laughed again: "If you are willing to give us eyeliner, it should be difficult for anyone to doubt it." I don't need you to do anything, just help me get some news, and I promise you'll do you a good job. ”

"If you think of beauty, Brother Jianghu won't be a spy! Yes! Wang Jiajia said angrily, as soon as the words fell, the big knife on one side was on his neck.

"Wait!" I was startled, for fear that the black-faced ghost's hand would shake and hurt her, so I quickly relented: "You put down the knife, you have something to say." ”

The red-faced ghost head waved his hand slightly, and when the big knife was removed, he slapped me on the shoulder with one hand and said with a smile: "Okay, I like to talk to straightforward people." It seems that this ugly girl still has some weight in your heart. I saw that you went to sign up for Mu Niangzi's marriage proposal, and I thought you were also one of Mu Niangzi's many admirers. ”

"Brother Jianghu, have you also signed up?" Wang Jiajia grabbed my sleeve again and asked nervously.

Oh, woman! When is this, the knife was on the neck just now, and I am still entangled in this, and I don't want to think about how we are going to get out at this moment.

"Well, I went to join in the fun, there are so many people, where can I be selected?"

The red-faced ghost smiled again: "I just saw you go to the back of the inn for two quarters of an hour, but you saw Mu Niangzi?" ”

I glanced at the big knife that was dangling: "Yes." ”

"What did you say?"

My head was spinning, what did I say? I've talked a lot about the secret agents of the Heavenly Eye, but of course I can't tell him about them. I must not let him know about my relationship with Mu Niangzi, if they know that Mu Niangzi and I are also friends, will they let me spy on Mu Niangzi, or even deal with her?

"Nothing." I bowed my head and replied, only to feel that the purse in my arms was heavy.

"What? People don't like you? The red-faced ghost's sharp eyes scanned me through the hole in the mask, and he comforted me like Ah Wu: "It's okay, it's about participating!" ”

I suddenly thought of Mu Niangzi's words, it seems that someone has been secretly monitoring the inn, he must have heard Ah Wu's words outside through the wall, and didn't see me show my purse to Ah Wu, so he thought I was eliminated.

"You've been spying on me?" I asked, trembling all over, I don't know how long I've been being watched, and I don't even notice it.

"It's about you." The red-faced ghost's voice was smiling: "You deal with the Jianghu Inn every day, don't you want to figure out what the Mu lady is?" I think you're also an honest person, be careful that people sell you and you're still counting her money. ”

"I don't care who she is, anyway, I've been sending her goods for a few months, and she has never lost a penny from me, and has lent me money to build a house, and allowed me to set up a stall in front of her inn. She's a good person! I defended Mu Niangzi.

"Yo yo yo, good guy? Where in the world are there so many good people? Who isn't for themselves? The red-faced ghost head circled around me again: "Are you willing to rely on a few pieces of tofu for the rest of your life?" Don't you long to live in a wealthy compound, wear silk and satin, and eat delicious food? ”

I grabbed the cloth clothes on my body and fell silent. Who doesn't want to live in a mansion with fine clothes and food, but if you want to change it in an improper way, even if you get it, will you feel at ease?

Mu Niangzi is definitely a rich person in the eyes of outsiders, but every time I see her, it is difficult for me to see how happy she is. As for Xiao Mu, as a Qincha, where does he live and what clothes he wears, but he is happy and energetic all day long.

They are all my friends, how can I help these unknown people deal with them? Although I am just an inconspicuous small trader, I still have this awareness, otherwise Xiao Mu would not have chosen me to be the secret agent of the Sky Eye, and I am also the captain of the team!

I feel like it's time to test my acting skills again, and I have to show the reaction that an ordinary person should have.

So, I hesitated for a moment and looked at the red-faced ghost timidly: "What do you want me to do?" ”

With a smile in his eyes, the red-faced ghost took out a bulging cloth bag from his arms: "You go to the Jianghu Inn every day to sell tofu, and you are familiar with the people inside." I need you to help me inquire, where did that Mu Niang come from? What is the purpose of her large-scale selection of a husband this time? Also, what is the relationship between her and Chincha? You can rest assured, you won't be allowed to work in vain, this is your hard work. ”

"Brother Jianghu......" Wang Jiajia muttered, shaking her head slightly.

I slowly reached out and took the cloth bag, only to feel heavy, open it and see, it is all white silver dollars, roughly counted, I am afraid there are ten taels of silver!

I smiled slightly, and then looked at the red-faced ghost with some trepidation: "Who are you?" What are you doing with these? ”
