20 Set up a fake bureau
Fortunately, there was a "Jingyue Yixiang" to help, and the Han side finally regained the territory in the east of the city with two wins in three games, so everyone celebrated in the ruins of Baita Temple until the third watch, and then sent Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue away. At noon on the second day, the beggar helped Lanzhou to set up a banquet in the restaurant in the east of the city, invited Lanzhou martial arts celebrities, and thanked Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue again.
During the banquet, they chatted about the happy place, so Master He asked how long the two were going to stay in Lanzhou City, Xie Yixiang smiled and said: "My senior brother and sister are going to go to Yumen Pass in the west this time. Unexpectedly, when passing through Lanzhou, the head of the merchant had some personal matters to do, and my brother and sister waited for him, so they delayed in the city for a while. Now that the time agreed with Shang Zhutou has arrived, we will go out of the city first and join him on the road. The monkey father asked when the two of them would leave, and Xian Jingyue next to him replied, "Now." ”
At that moment, everyone at the banquet tried to stay again, and when they saw that the two insisted on leaving, they didn't stay longer. After the meal, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue said goodbye to the Lanzhou martial arts celebrities present one by one, and He Helm took the opportunity to stuff the "Thanksgiving Order" of the beggar gang into Xie Yixiang's hands, and the monkey father also called two beggar gang disciples and ordered them to accompany the two out of the city. The four of them came to the west of the city from the east of the city, all the way out of the west gate of Lanzhou City, just out of the city gate, a beggar disciple said that he had a bad stomach, and left first, leaving only another beggar disciple to go with the two.
Then he walked a few miles and came to a secluded place on the official road, but Xie Yixiang suddenly made a move, sealed the acupoint of the beggar disciple, and said with a smile: "Since your companion has gone back to report the news under the pretext, presumably Master He Helm should also know that my senior brother and sister have indeed left Lanzhou City at this time, then we will also be relieved." But he wanted to wronged this brother and spend the night in this wilderness. ”
It turned out that Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue came to Lanzhou this time, originally for the case of "Lanzhou Ghost Monkey" left by Ning Cui, but the case has not yet been clarified, and Shang Buqi is still in the city, and it will not be until tomorrow is the agreed time between the two parties, how can the two of them leave?
In the final analysis, it was because of the tooth man he met yesterday, Xie Yixiang had seen with his own eyes that under the woman's black robe, it was clearly an ape-like arm, even if this matter had nothing to do with the so-called "Lanzhou ghost monkey", the two could not sit idly by. However, this matter is obviously related to the beggar gang Lanzhou rudder, but He Helm Lord and Monkey Daddy insisted on refusing to let the two intervene, coupled with the battle between them and the Semu people last night, the two of them have the same hatred as the beggar gang, and they can be regarded as allies. In this situation, no matter how much Jingyue cares about the situation, it is not good to continue to have a head-on conflict with the beggar gang on this matter.
So after last night's "Dog Head Banquet", the two planned today's situation, first pretending to leave Lanzhou City, but quietly turned back halfway and continued to investigate the matter in secret. At that moment, the two of them hid the beggar disciple in the bushes next to the official road, and took out the clothes of the Semu people that Xie Yixiang had bought in the bazaar before, and each dressed up as a Semu man, took a small path and made a big circle, and re-entered the city from the south gate of Lanzhou City.
If you want to say that the beggar gang prevented the two of them from participating in the tooth man, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue had already analyzed it before, either the beggar gang was also investigating the matter, and they were afraid that the two would startle the snake, or the tooth man was a member of the beggar gang at all. So this time when they returned to Lanzhou City, the first thing the two of them went to was the Yamen of Lanzhou Mansion, wanting to see the four children who were rescued by everyone the day before yesterday. Assuming that the black-robed woman who kidnapped the children was a member of the beggar gang, then when the monkey father proposed to send these four children to the yamen, he was naturally pretending, and he was afraid that he would attack these four children afterwards.
At this time, it was almost dusk, and although the yamen of Lanzhou Mansion was heavily guarded, with the light skills of the two of them, they were not afraid of being discovered by the yamen. When he sneaked into the backyard of the yamen, Xie Yixiang pretended to be a master of lust and eyes, and found a lone official to ask him, only to know that the four children who were rescued by everyone the day before yesterday are still in the yamen, but it was the arrangement of the head of the Deng, who only said that he should be taken care of, but he did not let the following catchers go to visit the families of these children, and he didn't know how long to keep them.
After Xie Yixiang interrogated clearly, he knocked the official unconscious, and Xian Jingyue and Xian Jingyue went all the way to the house where the four children were, but it was a locked side room in the backyard. Peeking through the window, the four children in the room can be vaguely seen sitting or lying down, looking a little listless, but also unharmed.
The two discussed in a low voice, but they couldn't guess what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of Deng Tou's head, could it be that the head catcher of the dignified Lanzhou Mansion Yamen actually had some collusion with the tooth man who stole the children, so he locked these four children in the backyard? Just as the two were wandering, they suddenly heard a sound of footsteps coming from not far away, but it was a servant walking towards this side, and a man in a black cloak was led behind him. Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue hurriedly hid their bodies and hid in the dark to observe.
I saw that the official who led the way went straight to the outside of the house where the child was being held, took out the key and opened the door, and let the man in the cloak behind him enter the house. After about a cup of tea, the man in the cloak came out of the house, and the four children followed him in the direction of the back door of the yamen. The officer, on the other hand, locked the door again, and left on his own in the opposite direction, without saying a word to the man in the cloak from beginning to end.
However, just as the man in the cloak stepped out of the room, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue had clearly seen his face shrouded in the cloak, wasn't it the elder of the beggar gang Lanzhou rudder, the monkey father known as the "Flying Ape"?
Xie Yixiang's face suddenly flashed with a burst of heat, last night at the "Dog Head Banquet", the beggars treated everyone with hospitality, and he couldn't erase his feelings at that time, and he almost wanted to sell the beggars to this face, and decided not to pay attention to this matter. Fortunately, the senior brother refused to eat hard and insisted on finding out the matter, so he decided on today's plan to return. Now that Deng Zhutou locked these children in the backyard of the yamen, and let the monkey father sneakily lead them away, which obviously had other intentions, and it was even very likely that he was the mastermind behind the black-robed woman.
So the two quietly followed behind the monkey father and the four children, and went out of the back door of the yamen together. There was a dilapidated carriage waiting outside the back door, so Father Monkey and his four children got into the carriage and lowered the curtain in front of the carriage. The driver of the carriage was an ordinary coachman in coarse linen clothes, and when he saw that everyone was seated, he immediately waved the carriage and shouted, and sat in front and drove forward. The two of them did not want to startle the snake, so they followed behind the carriage to see where the monkey father wanted to take the four children.
After about half an hour, the carriage had passed through more than a dozen streets and came to the north of the city. Since most of the people living in the north of the city were poor Han people, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue's lustful people were a little dazzling at this time, but fortunately, the sky was getting dark, so the two of them performed light skills and stalked on the roofs of the houses on the street. When the carriage had turned into a lonely alley, and had gone a short distance, it came to an open clearing, where the driver stopped the carriage and jumped out of it alone, into a thatched hut beside the clearing. However, the monkey father and the four children in the carriage did not move, and did not have the slightest intention of getting off the train.
Seeing this, Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue on the roof hurriedly approached quietly, and then discerned it, and immediately scolded secretly. It turned out that the thatched house next to the open space was clearly a thatched toilet, and it was thought that people were in three urgies, so the coachman would stop here to relieve himself. At that moment the two of them waited on the roof, but after a meal, they still did not see the coachman come out of the latrine, but at the end of the alley came two carriages, one in front and one behind, and the appearance was similar to the carriage they were tracking;
Xie Yixiang and Xian Jingyue became more and more confused, and they both thought that it was the monkey father's arrangement, mostly to prevent someone from following them, so they found two identical carriages and wanted to change cars here, so as to hide people's eyes. But in this way, if the two of them are a little careless and accidentally follow the wrong car, wouldn't it harm the four children who have been rescued?
Xie Yixiang didn't dare to take risks, so she hurriedly asked Xian Jingyue to answer in the back, and she unfolded the "Luoxia Lonely Bird" method, jumped straight to the carriage in front of it, stretched out her hand to open the curtain of the carriage, and said with a smile: "Monkey father, offended!"
Unexpectedly, as the curtain of the carriage was lifted, the smile on Xie Yixiang's face suddenly condensed. I saw that the monkey father in the carriage and the four children were tilting their heads on their shoulders, opening five pairs of dead fish-like eyes wide, staring at themselves in unison, and then looking at the necks of the five of them, it was clear that they had been broken by the master's force.
Xie Yixiang couldn't help but gasp, she and her senior brother followed the carriage all the way, and did not see the slightest abnormality along the way, how could there be a master sneaking into the carriage and twisting the necks of these five people?
Xie Yixiang had not yet come to her senses, and suddenly felt dizzy and almost wanted to fall. She suddenly came to her senses and said secretly: "It's not good, I've been tricked!"
