On the night of the big day, the "bride" suddenly woke up and ran away from the marriage. After the news spread, the entire Qi Mansion was in a mess and a mess. Hundreds of torches were lit, divided into teams, and snaked and scattered, all of them people who had gone out to find people.

Among these teams, many people were instructed by Master Qi and Zheng Yangming to secretly look for Chen Sanlang. They got a secret order, once they found the target, they immediately dragged it to a remote and uninhabited place, and the result was that the surrounding area was the territory of Qifu, and the night was dark and the wind was high, even if they killed the court officials, they were not afraid of the incident.

The crowd was scattered, mighty, and bustling, but they searched almost all the miles around, but they never found anything.

After receiving the report, Zheng Yangming couldn't help but smash a wine glass: What about people? In a short period of time, can it be possible to fly away and disappear out of thin air? You must know that Chen Sanlang is just a civil official......

Chen Sanlang can't fly to the sky, but he can escape the water. He took advantage of the chaos to run out of Qifu and went straight to the direction of Jingjiang. Because he knew in his heart that Ao Qingmei must have also gone into the water. When he arrived at the riverside, he immediately displayed the "True Dragon Water Trick" to set up waves.

The river is vast, pitch black, and difficult to see. Chen Sanlang resumed his cultivation, and he was extraordinary, but he was able to overcome it.

"There!"

It didn't take long for Chen Sanlang to notice and see a person floating on the water, going with the waves. Look at the costumes, isn't it what Ao Qingmei is wearing?

He was overjoyed, and his speed quickened, and he fluttered over: for the little dragon girl, the two only met in a dream - they had never seen their true faces yet, and they were quite looking forward to it.

I grabbed it with one hand, but it was wrong to start it. fluttering, only to find that there is only a pair of clothes. There was no one in there at all.

"What's going on?"

Chen Sanlang was disappointed and thought carefully. The biggest possibility is that the little dragon girl shed her body, turned into an aquarium form, and went into hiding. After all, that kind of form, flexible and free, is the most suitable for hiding and recuperation. I remember the first time we met, it was a red carp.

It's just that in that case, it's not easy to find it again.

Look around. Everything I saw and heard was vast. After a little hesitation, he continued to use the water to escape downstream, and after walking for more than ten miles, he finally saw the outline of a village on the shore, because of the night, the villagers had already turned off the lights and fell asleep.

When Chen Sanlang went ashore, he saw that there was a temple built at the head of the village, and he recognized that it was a river temple -- on both sides of the Jing River. Wherever there is a village, there is basically a river temple, and there are continuous offerings on weekdays to pray for peace.

Step in. I saw that incense and candles were lit in the temple, and a piece of light shone out. The space in the temple is not large, and a statue of a god is placed on the top. Red face and black beard, eyes wooden.

Chen Sanlang has seen a lot of these river temples. I don't care, and I don't have much respect. Shi Shiran walked to the back, saw that the ground was clean, and found two futons, laid them on the ground, sat on them, closed his eyes and recuperated.

Tossing and choking tonight, in a short period of time, many things have happened over and over again, both the body and the soul are too tired, and now they are looking for a quiet place to breathe and recuperate.

Slowly meditating on the "Haoran Silk Book" to nourish the spirit, gradually wandering too empty, leaning against the wall and falling asleep.

I don't know how long it took, Chen Sanlang woke up suddenly, and saw that it was daylight in the temple. He stretched and probed out.

In the morning, the sun rose.

Chen Sanlang's appearance in the village aroused the curiosity of some villagers. He said that he was a scholar who traveled to study, and he took out money to buy some food to satisfy his stomach.

The villagers were hospitable and talked to him about the terroir.

Gotta get it!

The sound of horses' hooves was loud, and after a while, I saw four healthy horses galloping towards me, startling the chickens and dogs in the village to flee in panic, and the two naughty boys, who had been crying, quickly shut up and hid behind their mothers.

Seeing the knight's clothes, the villagers' faces changed drastically. They recognized each other as the warriors of the Qi Family Mansion, these people had their backs to the Qi Family Mansion, they were not easy to mess with, and they all had martial arts. If you want to say that Qijiafu is a tyrant in the local area, every household has to pay a piece of money and grain to Qijiafu every month, called "Ping An Money".

Pay money to keep you safe, nothing more.

However, today is not the day to pay money, why did the warriors of the Qi Family Mansion come?

The villagers looked at each other with apprehension.

Seeing this, Chen Sanlang frowned: he went all the way down last night, but he walked out of more than ten miles, and it seems that he has not yet stepped out of the sphere of influence of the Qi Family Mansion. This Qi family's mansion is really amazing, comparable to the local tyrant family, no wonder they don't even pay attention to the county government.

The four knights rushed to him, and Kankan restrained his horses, sat down on them, and looked down proudly, and one of them shouted: "If there have been strangers in your village since last night, if any, tell them at once, or else, if it is found afterwards, it will be a grave sin that will be beheaded, and the sin will be unforgivable." ”

Hearing the word "beheading", the villagers couldn't help but shrink their necks and turn pale.

Originally, law enforcement and conviction were the rights and responsibilities of the imperial court yamen, and in private among the people, although there was also the practice of lynching, it basically existed within the family, and it was rare to announce it like now.

A sneer overflowed at the corner of Chen Sanlang's mouth: The current dynasty is not right, and I am afraid that there will be more such things in the future. As the saying goes, "the country will not be a country, and the law will be lawless".

Under the stern gaze of the knights of Qijiafu, the villagers lowered their heads one after another, not daring to look at each other, and some of them looked at Chen Sanlang. There is no other reason, anyway, isn't this scholar just a stranger?

Soon, the eyes of the knights of the Qijiafu fell on Chen Sanlang:

"Huh?"

A knight's eyebrows were raised, and a faint gleam flashed in his eyes.

"Who are you and why are you here?"

Another knight asked Chen Sanlang.

Chen Sanlang replied: "Study tour. ”

The knight looked up and down, said noncommittally, and suddenly said, "The Qi family's mansion was stolen last night, and the thief fled." In order to avoid suspicion, you, a scholar, do you have a guide book?"

Chen Sanlang said: "You are not an official errand, why do you review the road quotation documents?"

The knight laughed, "Why? Don't talk nonsense, if you can't prove it, you have to go with us. ”

An old man standing beside Chen Sanlang persuaded in a low voice: "Scholar, don't make a dispute of will, hurry up and take it out." ”

Chen Sanlang shook his head: "I am from Jing County, and I don't go out of the region, where is there any road introduction document." ”

The so-called road reference document is a proof of identity, but most people do not go far and only move locally, but they do not need to go through these procedures.

When the knight heard this, he laughed cruelly: "Look at your flickering words, you are not a study tour scholar at all, it is likely to be a thief who steals property, take it!"

After that, he flew off his horse, strode into a meteor, and opened a thin and angular left hand, which was a grappling technique, and the eagle grabbed Chen Sanlang's shoulder like a chicken, trying to subdue him in one fell swoop. (To be continued......)
