Seeing Luo Gan and Mingshuang talking and laughing from a distance preparing lunch for everyone, Ming Chengxin, who was passing by, was a little incredulous. He once thought that Mingshuang would always have a feud with Luo Gan.

What he didn't expect was that these two guys would go out for a drink together in the afternoon.

Luo Qian planned to pay out of his own pocket to buy a screen and put it in the room, but Mingshuang was quite embarrassed when he learned about it, because he didn't have a penny.

"Haha, it's annoying when you see me. In fact, Luo Gan wants to have a little personal space, and living in a separate room has become a luxury. So sometimes, he would rather sleep in the utility room in the yard than stay in the same room with Mingshuang.

Luo Gan paid for a partition in the room. As the saying goes, taking people with short hands and eating people with soft mouths, Mingshuang did not have the excuse to find Luo Gan to be angry for no reason. He had to happily accompany Luo Gan to have a drink, and talked endlessly about how to visit the Qinglou so as not to be discovered by Ming Chengxin.

It just so happened that this time Luo Gan met the blacksmith Zeng Shenyan again. Since entering the Ming Mansion, it was the third time he had met Zeng Shenyan in the tavern. Zeng Shenyan didn't drink much here, and Luo Gan was blacked out by the tavern in the center of the city because of the boss's wife. The two bumped into each other much less often.

This time, Luo Gan still called him over, and was surprised to find that Zeng Shenyan was much haggard compared to before.

After introducing the two, Luo Gan asked Zeng Shenyan bluntly what happened.

Zeng Shenyan's swollen eyes stared at Luo Gan and looked at it, and he stopped talking.

"What's going on?" Mingshuang asked.

But when he saw Zeng Shenyan, he sighed heavily, "I, I, hey! My wife and children have been kidnapped." ”

Mingshuang shouted: "How can this be?

Luo Gan asked him, "Who is the gangster, and what clues do you have?"

"Left a letter. ”

"I'm looking for you for ransom, right? scrape together some money and go over and deliver as he says, of course, you must call a few brothers in advance to ambush. ”

Zeng Shenyan shook his head at Luo Gan. Luo Qian looked at his strange eyes and had a bad premonition in his heart.

"The man said, 'You want me to trick you into going out into the wilderness outside the city.' ”

"Luo Gan?" Mingshuang also looked at Luo Gan strangely.

Luo Qian smiled and said, "Since it is a lie, if Brother Zeng wants to tell me directly, isn't he afraid that he will hurt the lives of his wife and children?"

"But I won't lie to people!" Zeng Shenyan pulled his hair in annoyance, "If you want me to go, why should someone else go? It's my daughter-in-law, it's my child, why would others go over willingly? I really can't figure it out." In the past few days, I can't sleep well, I can't eat well, and I'm thinking about it when I'm peeing, but I just can't figure it out. ”

Seeing Zeng Shenyan's dejected appearance, Luo Qian said loudly: "Did he say that as long as I passed, he would let his sister-in-law and children go?"

"Brother, don't go there, maybe someone is waiting for you to die. ”

"However, he didn't say that I should only go alone, right?" Luo Gan smiled calmly, "However, after all, it is about my own life, and I ask Brother Zeng to let me go back and plan a little." We'll meet at this tavern tomorrow before noon. ”

"Brother!" Zeng Shenyan heard this, and as soon as he was excited, he got up and knelt down for Luo Gan. Luo Gan hurriedly held him so that his knees did not touch the ground.

"I will protect you even if I sacrifice my own life!"

Mingshuang helped Luo Gan to help Zeng Shenyan up, and Zeng Shenyan swore again, "In the future, Zeng Shenyan swears to the sky that if the Luo Gan brothers are injured in the slightest way because of going to the appointment, Zeng will immediately cut off one of his arms; if Luo Gan is seriously injured or cannot survive, Zeng will never survive." The words were sonorous and powerful, and the frightened Luo Gan almost didn't touch the wine bowl.

Zeng Shenyan took the wine bowl and drank with the two, but Luo Gan wanted him to take back his oath but he couldn't say it.

It has been nearly a year since he left his hometown, and Luo Gan is not a ruthless and unrighteous person. During this time, the people he met would leave deep or shallow traces in his memory.

Luo Gan promised to rescue Zeng Shenyan's wife and children because on the day he first met Zeng Shenyan in the tavern, Luo Gan saw Liu Caigen's shadow in him in a trance.

Because of Liu Caigen, Luo Gan and Yang Pugui barely escaped from the poisonous hands of the two Southern Barbarian thieves, and also because of Liu Caigen's retention, they stayed in the Jiangdu Spirit Realm for a longer time.

Luo Gan really regarded him as a big brother who could be trusted at the beginning: because he received a lot of charity from fat men when he was a child, in Luo Gan's impression, these people were wide and fat, and they usually looked like they were smiling and light-hearted. When encountering someone with similar appearance characteristics, Luo Qian will subjectively label the other party as such.

However, Liu Caigen is not. Luo Gan couldn't judge Liu Caigen's good or evil, but Yu Jue's theft brought Luo Gan a certain amount of trouble. In the end, Luo Gan thought that he was to blame at first.

No one forced him to cut the little snake, and no one harmed him to provoke the Green Snake Daoist.

However, people will become benevolent because of some experiences—although Luo Gan thinks that he has become more ruthless, such as breaking off his friendship with Yang Pugui.

But in the end, when he returned to the Ming Mansion, he began to think about the things before and after saving people.

As a family member of the kidnapper, Zeng Shenyan did not know the identity of the gangsters, let alone how the gangsters kidnapped his wife and children. All he knew was that he had gone home as usual, and that all he had in the house was a strand of his wife's hair and the handwriting left by the gangsters.

But Luo Gan can guess that the person who named him to go over must have had a holiday with Luo Gan, and it is likely to be Du Xiao'e, who made trouble in the pharmacy last time.

However, the suspicious point is that Du Xiao'e just made a war letter with Yun Jing, how could she do the thing of kidnapping Zeng Shenyan's family?

He discussed countermeasures with the rest of the Ming Mansion, and everyone agreed that before leaving Qixia, they still had to go to the Hong Inn to test the pair of sisters in the Lihe Gang.

Because the boss of Jin Yutang had already made an appointment for tomorrow's outpatient clinic, it was inconvenient for him to continue to discuss with them and rest early.

Luo Gan poured a little wine and talked to them about his experience after leaving Shangyuan, and it was also to remember whether he had offended people somewhere.

He noticed that Yun Jingzhen kept his head down and kept silent, and he didn't think it was strange. Since the reunion, he could clearly feel that she was much quieter and more distant than before.

When talking about the experience of meeting Brother He Zhi in Qingshui Village, Brother Yun Zhao listened very carefully. Luo Gan told her about He Zhi's life experience by the way, and tears were in the eyes of Yun Zhaodi.

It turned out that when the two got along, He Zhi rarely mentioned his past to her. Brother Yun Zhao didn't expect that they were both fallen people at the end of the world, and he couldn't help but feel even more distressed.

“...... During that time, in the name of curing diseases, Yangpugui gave many things that claimed to be 'holy water' to the people of Qingshui Village to drink. ”

Mingshuang interjected: "Luo Gan, you forgot to say that you were turned into a cat by a sable. ”

Luo Qian smiled and pursed his lips, but did not speak.

"Pretty cute. Hey, didn't you tell me if you hooked up with a little female cat in Qingshui Village?"

Luo Gan quickly took the rest of the matter, and in the end, all in all, he was a good man, and it was impossible to provoke a life-and-death enemy.

The next day, the person in charge of going to the Hong Inn to explore the reality was naturally Yun Jing, and she brought Yun Zhaodi. Luo Qian and Mingshuang arrived at the tavern in advance and waited patiently.

He couldn't figure out whether Yun Jingzhen came first or Zeng Shenyan came first. It just so happened that he was teaching himself divination in the past few days, so he asked Mingshuang to dip some water in some water and write casually on the table.

When Mingshuang heard that Luo Gan was going to try his learning results, he was a little excited to mark out the word "Ming" on the table. Seeing Luo Qian staring at the words and pondering, Mingshuang wet his fingers and wrote the word "frost".

"How's it going?

Luo Gan was silent for a moment, then pinched his fingers indiscriminately and asserted: "I can infer one thing from these two words, that is, you are particularly narcissistic. ”

......

After all, Zeng Shenyan went to the tavern first.

After he returned yesterday, he couldn't sleep all night, and made a difficult decision to report to the official.

At this time, the official office was very busy, so he put aside his clueless kidnapping case, and even replied that he would wait for something to happen and then find the official office.

Zeng Shen said that it would be a waste of time to run here. Unexpectedly, as he left, he met the sheriff who had no case to take over.

The people of Qixia know that in addition to patrolling the daily order, the sheriff usually receives cases related to demons. Zeng Shenyan explained what happened to the sheriff, but he didn't expect the other party to agree to come over.
