Chapter 57: Kidnapping

Xu Qi'an received a warm reception from Song Qing, and the two sat at the table, holding fragrant tea, and had a friendly conversation.

"To be honest, I'm a little suspicious of you," Song Qing took a sip and said, "In the past few days, I have checked all the eighteen generations of your ancestors." ”

Is it really appropriate to say in front of others that he has checked the eighteenth generation of his ancestors... Xu Qi'an was not surprised by this, and asked with a smile: "How is the investigation?"

"It was so clean. Song Qing shook his head, didn't continue the topic, took out a wad of rice paper and handed it over: "Show you my recent research." ”

Xu Qi'an said that I have made up the stalks of the master of Youfang, and you don't even ask.... You tech nerds don't care about that.

He took the manuscript, glanced at it a few times, and almost squirted out a mouthful of tea.

In addition to the plant grafting theory he told Song Qing, this guy also drew inferences from one case and made several cases with divergent thinking. Like what:

Human-horse grafting.

There are a lot of advantages, such as Dafeng no longer has to consider the resources of war horses, and the soldiers don't have to worry about not having excellent war horses. Because we are mature soldiers, we can be war horses ourselves.....

Another example: capture the fowl demon race, breed with humans, and create a half-demon that can act as an air force.

Monster Niang understands.... Phew, reproductive isolation to understand..... Xu Qi'an put down the rice paper, calmed down the three views that were shocked, and said, "I came to Si Tianjian this time because I wanted to ask Senior Brother Song for help. ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say that. ”

"I offended Zhou Shilang, you should know. ”

"Cai Wei told me. Song Qing put down the teacup and said solemnly: "It's a pity that I can't help you, Si Tianjian doesn't interfere in the government, and Your Majesty doesn't allow it." Besides, a squire with real power has exceeded the limit of my ability. ”

"Senior Brother Song, don't worry, I need you to do it simply...."Xu Qi'an said his idea.

"This is impossible," Song Qing directly refused: "Song is upright, above board, and will never do such a thing." ”

Xu Qi'an thought about it and said ashamedly: "It's me who didn't think about it.... Senior Brother Song, let's continue to talk about your grafting theory. IMHO, this is unlikely to succeed. ”

Song Qing frowned, sat upright, and put on a rigorous attitude to discuss academics.

"You must know it yourself, and the cat that had to be kept in a glass bottle is an example. But you're definitely wondering why it failed and why. ”

Song Qing leaned forward, his breathing became short, and he stared at Xu Qi'an with wide eyes: "You know?"

Xu Qi'an said: "I didn't participate in the research, so I don't know where the real reason is, but I can provide you with a theoretical basis." ”

Theory?!

What Song Qing lacks most is the theoretical basis, after all, the grandmasters who founded the sect are rare, and the alchemy is broad and profound, if you want to continue to move forward, the support of theory is indispensable.

Xu Qi'an looked at Song Qing's suddenly bright eyes, and said slowly:

"Have you ever heard of the periodic table?"

What is the periodic table? What does this have to do with my experiment? Ten thousand question marks flashed through Song Qing's mind.

His breath grew shorter and shorter, and he felt like he was about to touch the door of alchemy's truth. As a fanatic of alchemy, every hair of his excitement stood on end.

Before he could ask a question, he heard Xu Qi'an say leisurely: "The principle of alchemy is equivalent exchange...."

.....

The Marquis of Weiwu Mansion is located in the inner city of the Quefu Street, this street is the territory of the nobles, all the way, all the marquis, counts and dukes.

The Marquis of Mighty Warriors is a hereditary title that arose out of the struggle for the throne three hundred years ago. So far, the hereditary succession has not had much power in his hands.

The side door opened, and a young girl with a slightly round face walked out, surrounded by maids and servants, dressed in a gorgeous Luo robe, skirt to heel, embroidered shoes looming as she walked.

At the age of sixteen or seventeen, she has a pretty appearance, a pair of bright eyes, a haughty temperament, and the flying look between her eyebrows adds to her aura, which arouses her attention.

Zhang Yuying entered the sedan chair at the door, and the sedan chair man carried the sedan chair and walked slowly in the direction of the City God Temple.

She is going to the City God Temple today to offer incense, eat fasting, and then go to Wenyuanbo's mansion to find a close friend in the boudoir who is familiar with her to drink tea and chat.

Take a look at the forbidden books secretly circulated among women's boudoirs, and talk about which family's son is at an age suitable for marriage. Comment on the outstanding students in this year's autumn school and guess whether they can go to high school next spring.

Maybe there is also his own son-in-law who rides the dragon.

After walking two streets, the maid who followed the sedan chair suddenly heard a commotion.

The two carriages in the rear didn't know what was going on, and the coachman grabbed the reins of the horses and waved his whip with a panicked expression:

"Get out of the way, get out of the way..."

Pedestrians scurrying around to avoid it.

"Quick, stop the carriage. The maid was shocked, and while directing the servants to intercept the carriage, she ordered the sedan bearer to dodge.

The servants were short of manpower, so they only intercepted one, and the other one crashed into two sedan drivers, and the sedan chair overturned in an instant.

The remaining two palanquin bearers and maids instinctively saved themselves and threw themselves aside to dodge, and the scene was instantly chaotic.

After a short period of confusion, the two carriages continued to gallop away, and the maid got up in a hurry and ran to the sedan chair to check:

"Second Miss, Second Miss, how are you?"

No one answered.

The maid's heart sank, she opened the sedan curtain suddenly, was stunned, and after a few seconds, she screamed: "The second lady is gone!!"

The sedan was empty.

......

The inner city, somewhere in a small courtyard.

Zhang Yuying knew that she had been kidnapped, although she didn't know who it was.

She had been awake for a while, and after relieving her initial headache, she had been in a state of fear inside.

As the concubine of the mighty marquis, the treatment is only a little worse than that of the concubine on weekdays, far better than the other sisters. Her father and mother loved her very much, and her daughter, who was both an older sister and a cousin, had a very good relationship with her.

Brocade clothes and jade food, pampered, when has this kind of thing happened.

There was silence all around, her hands and feet were tied, and her mouth was stuffed with cloth, and she was terrified.

"Bang!"

Outside the courtyard, there was the sound of the door opening, followed by footsteps.

Zhang Yuying's heart instantly lifted, fear exploded in her heart, she didn't know what she was about to face, but it would definitely not be a good thing.

"Hey," the footsteps stopped outside the house, and someone snorted and said with a lewd smile: "This girl is so beautiful, I secretly inspected the goods just now, and her breasts are big and soft, so comfortable." ”

"You're so cheap...."The other said this, paused, and added, "You didn't even call me along." ”

Zhang Yuying was ashamed and angry, tears rolling in her eyes.

The two figures continued to talk:

"She's still a chick. ”

"Nonsense, the second daughter of this mighty marquis is still waiting for the boudoir. ”

Zhang Yuying was shocked, they knew who I was, they knew that my father was a mighty marquis, and they dared to kidnap me?

This shows that the mastermind behind the scenes is by no means an ordinary person.

"What do you say Zhou Gongzi will do with this girl, although she is an excellent beauty, but it doesn't seem to be safe to keep it all the time. ”

"Oh, I'm thinking too much. Zhou Gongzi played for a while at most, and when he got tired of it, he strangled him to death and buried it in this yard, who knows?"

"When Zhou Gongzi gets tired of playing, let's drink a few sips of soup, this girl has fine skin and tender meat, which is much more watery than the woman in the hook bar. ”

"Yes, if Zhou Gongzi didn't want to try it, we would have done it now. ”

"Who let the family be the son of the household servant, go for a walk, and drink. ”

"Isn't that okay?"

"It's going to be dusk soon, let's buy wine and come back. ”

The footsteps went away, and then the sound of the courtyard door closing, the two seemed to go out to drink.

Zhou Gongzi?The son of the household servant?

The image of a boy in brocade flashed in Zhang Yuying's mind, and she remembered what happened to the Lantern Festival last year.

He still misses himself.....

Tired of playing.... Take a sip of soup... Murder and burial in the yard and destruction of corpses.... The young lady who was carefully cared for in a wealthy family was so frightened that she trembled with fright, and tears came out of her eyes.

"Woo-woohh

Suddenly, he noticed that the rope on his wrist was loosening a little.

Zhang Yuying froze suddenly, then quieted down, no longer making a movement, but her hands twisted vigorously.

I don't know how long it took, the delicate skin of her wrist was rubbed and broken, and it hurt so much that she finally opened her eyes and untied herself.

She immediately sat up, untied the rope on her feet, crept to the door, listened patiently for a moment, and made sure that there was no one in the yard, and she walked cautiously to the yard.

Looking around for a while, he bit his silver teeth, ran at a speed that he had never had in his life, rushed to the gate of the courtyard, and pulled the bolt open.

The door didn't open and was locked outside.

"Woo...."Miss Zhang let out a desperate wail.

.....

On the street opposite the courtyard, Xu Qi'an was holding a bowl of noodles in his hand, and Xu New Year was standing beside him.

"That's a good thing to say. Xu Dalang habitually stimulated Erlang.

Erlang ignored him and looked at the courtyard door: "Will she not be able to come out?" Why did she lock the courtyard door. ”

"A strong desire to survive will bring out the potential of people, believe me, she came out. Just climb the wall. Xu Qi'an took a sip and explained in a low voice: "If you don't lock the door, the marks are too heavy." ”

This small courtyard is the private house that Zhou Li bought outside, and there is a good-looking woman in the house. Now the woman and the maid in the courtyard are concierges, a total of four people, all of whom are locked in the mirror by Xu Qi'an.

The small jade mirror can hold items and living things, Xu Qi'an tried it with the servants in the house.

If it weren't for that mirror, the plan to kidnap Miss Zhang's family would be extremely difficult, and it might even be impossible to steal chickens and rice.

At this time, the two saw a head popping out of the wall, and Zhang Yuying, who had messy hair, poked out her brain.

After a cautious look, he climbed out of the fence and jumped down.

She seemed to have broken her foot, lying on the ground for a long time without moving, and only after a long time did she cry and get up strongly. Holding on to the wall, he jumped and fled into the street.

As a wealthy lady with fine clothes and fine food, she can do this step, and she is really wronged.

They go out to buy wine and will come back at dusk.... She looked at the setting sun and knew she was truly safe now.

Maybe you won't be able to run far and you'll be chased back, or maybe you can take a few more steps and the two sides will collide face to face.

At this time, a team of stubborn patrol guards passed by.

Zhang Yuying, who was afraid of encountering kidnappers on the road or being caught up by them, seemed to see a savior and cried to greet her.

Before the sword guard drew his sword, he screamed, "I am the daughter of the mighty marquis, I have been kidnapped, save me." ”

Several of the Imperial Sword Guards looked at each other and immediately surrounded them.

The surrounding people stopped to watch, and the Imperial Sword Guard, who was the leader, asked, "Who kidnapped you?" ”

"It's Zhou Li, Zhou Li, the son of Zhou Shilang of the household department. Zhang Yuying broke down and cried.

Knock knock knock.... The drums of the curfew were heard simultaneously.

Xu Qi'an put the bowl on the side of the street and said, "Let's go, find an inn to rest, and go home tomorrow to wait for news." ”
