Chapter 24 Search
The original silence and peace of the night in Naxi City were suddenly shattered.
After hearing the orders of their superiors, countless officers and men went directly to the streets in the middle of the night and turned over every street and alley. Unfortunately, they searched again and again, but to no avail.
When Mu Jingcheng heard this result, he only felt angry, and scolded his subordinates: "Can such a few living people still fly out of this Xi City? ”
"Lord Zhizhou...... This ......" Although he knew that Mu Jingcheng was angry, the commanders of those officers and soldiers still had to argue hard, "There are so many residents in Xicheng, if you go through every house...... Not only is it time-consuming and labor-intensive...... I'm afraid it will also cause dissatisfaction among the residents, and I am afraid that it will cause disaster in the future......"
"Then what do you want me to do!?" Mu Jingcheng had no demeanor at this time, and couldn't help but yell, "I'm just such a child, and I was kidnapped by these rats in front of my eyes. I'm desperate to get them out and cut them with a thousand knives, and you pieces of shit can't even find anyone?"
The officers and soldiers endured being scolded, and although they had complaints in their hearts, they still dared to complain about the so-called complaints in the face of this Xicheng Zhizhou. The commander of the officers and soldiers endured the unhappiness in his heart and proposed: "If Lord Zhizhou can't let go of this matter in his heart...... A few of his subordinates can go and search the inn in the city on the orders of the lord, and then look to see if there is any trace of those people. ”
"Alas......" Mu Jingcheng lowered his head and clasped his hands above his head, was silent for a while, and finally sighed heavily and said: "Go, go, let's take more people to search all the inns, and then see if there is any trace of them in each alley." ”
It is impossible for a person who can become a city governor to be a person who is unreasonable. After Mu Jingcheng calmed down a little, he also knew in his heart that it was absolutely impossible to dig three feet into the ground in Xicheng to find these people. But in his heart, after all, he still cares about his children. Therefore, he still couldn't help but tell his subordinates to go to the inn to have a look. Even if you can't find it, it's an explanation from the bottom of your heart.
The people under him were relieved to see Mu Jingcheng like this. They saluted, then slowly retreated, gathering their men and looking around the city.
In Xicheng, there are more than ten inns of all sizes, and they are distributed in various places in Xicheng.
The officers and soldiers who had just retreated now appeared in the streets and alleys of Xicheng in a hurry. In the middle of the night, Xicheng seemed to be unpeaceful, and fell into an inexplicable busyness.
With the name of Zhizhou, many officers and soldiers poured into the small inn, first looking through the registered list, and then searching room by room. In the midst of this, they naturally encountered a lot of unsightly things and received a lot of abuse, but these officers and soldiers were also helpless, so they could only search all the guest rooms of these inns, and after the search was fruitless, they said "excuse me" to the innkeeper, and then hurried to the next inn.
searched three or four inns in a row, and received a lot of abuse and accusations, and the officers and soldiers couldn't help but think in their hearts, what kind of thing is this, just to find a few thieves to disturb the entire Xicheng, and in the end, it was their own group of people who were affected on both sides...... The officers and men couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, and they felt a lot more anxious about doing such a search.
When I arrived at the next inn, it was also a more famous inn in Xi City. I asked the guy and the owner of the inn if they had seen two men and a woman with a fourteen-year-old boy, and they got a blank response. The officers and soldiers also felt in their hearts that this time it was probably fruitless, but they still dared to search the guest room under the obstruction of the boss.
I searched one room after another, but still found nothing. Suddenly, an officer and soldier saw a very ornate-looking guest room at the end of the corridor and asked the boss: "Who lives here?"
"Ouch, ladies and gentlemen, there are distinguished guests from the small shop. If it disturbs the rest of the God of Wealth, the reputation of the small shop spreads, this ...... Whoever comes to our house to spend the night in the future will not be able to do well. The innkeeper said a little anxiously, and the officers and soldiers just turned a deaf ear and whispered: "There is something that our government bears." Then he grabbed the boss, and several people stepped forward to check.
The officers and soldiers first knocked politely on the door, and heard an elegant voice from inside: "Who?" "We are from the Xicheng official mansion, and we hope that you will cooperate with our work if we have something to visit." ”
The people inside were silent for a moment, and then said, "I'm sorry, it's late at night, I don't want to see anyone, and I ask you to leave." ”
Expected answer. Hearing this, the officers and soldiers looked at each other, and then said bitterly: "Then don't blame us for offending. ”
Everyone worked together and pushed the door open directly, and they looked at the people in the room and were stunned for a while.
In the room was an extremely handsome man in a green shirt, he exuded an elegant and friendly temperament, and at this moment, when he saw the officers and soldiers breaking in, he only frowned, and then sneered: "The officers and soldiers of Xicheng are so literate? It is really unpleasant to be disturbed by a group of laymen in the middle of the night. ”
"Who is this man...... Yan Fuliu ......" The sharp-eyed officers and soldiers recognized this person and whispered. How could these officers and soldiers not have heard of Yan Zhuang's name as a sound idiot, they could only secretly sigh how they had encountered such a hard stubble, and then looked around the room, except for Yan Fuliu, there was indeed no one else.
But then, many officers and soldiers suddenly sensed that something was wrong. After they came in, it seemed that Yan Fuliu had been guarding a cabinet intentionally or unintentionally. Everyone looked closely, and the cabinet was said to be not small, and it seemed that there was no problem in holding the three people and a child...... Seeing this, the officers and soldiers could only take a step forward and say, "Mr. Yan, please open the cabinet." ”
When Yan Fuliu heard this, the whole person seemed to be a little nervous. He looked at the many officers and soldiers, and said righteously: "Please forgive me for refusing such a request." Although they knew that this was likely to offend the famous Yanzhuang on the rivers and lakes, the officers and soldiers looked at Yan Fuliu's strange reaction, looked at each other, and then took the initiative to lean in and whispered: "Then don't blame us for offending." ”
All the officers and soldiers rushed up, several people separated Yan Fuliu, and one went directly to open the cabinet. Yan Fuliu also seemed to be a little embarrassed, but she didn't fight with force, but she couldn't help but shout verbally: "That cabinet, you can't open it, get out of the way for me." ”
The more he did this, the more the officers and soldiers felt that something was wrong, and the person who opened the cabinet did not hesitate too much, and directly opened the cabinet door, and then they saw that what was in the cabinet was ......
A piano.
Everyone was dumbfounded, only Yan Fuliu sneered and said: "It's really a group of laypeople, let people like you see my qin, it's really dirty." It turns out that Xicheng's hospitality is like this, and I really understand it today. ”
Yan Fuliu, who has always been known for his elegant and easy-going voice in the rivers and lakes, ridiculed him like this, and all the officers and soldiers only felt that their faces were hot. Come to think of it, after all, he is a music idiot, and the thing he cherishes is not the piano he always carries with him.
At this time, the officers and soldiers already felt a little ashamed in their hearts, plus the anxiety accumulated along the way, and everyone whispered: "It's offensive to disturb." Then he left the room one by one, and did not look at it any more.
Yan Fuliu watched them leave coldly, and then quietly listened to the sounds around him, until he heard that the group of officers and soldiers had left the inn and were also drifting away, then he suddenly changed his expression, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "You all come out, it's all right." ”
Then, under the bed on the side, several people came out. That Han Yun stood up, patted the ashes on his body clean, and then hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "Thank you Brother Yan for helping, last time in Lingcheng, thanks to Brother Yan's help, this time I got Brother Yan's help, and I am really grateful." ”
"Don't say so much politeness, just be easy-going. Yan Fuliu looked at the few of them and said with a soft smile, "It's just a small favor, it's not a big favor." If I have any difficulties in the future, Han Yun Shaoxia will also help me. ”
Yan Fuliu paused, then looked at Mu Tong beside them and said with a smile: "However, I think I won't be able to do such a thing as kidnapping the son of Xicheng Zhizhou in the future, so I shouldn't encounter any major difficulties." ”
Hearing this, Han Yun couldn't help but smile. It's really a coincidence, after a few of them came out of Mu's house, they were thinking about where to hide tonight, when they happened to meet Yan Fuliu. The latter heard what they were doing, and after a moment of silence, he offered to let Han Yun and the others hide in his room.
Then, when Yan Fuliu heard the arrival of the officers and soldiers, he proposed that they hide under the bed, and then pretended to stay in front of the cabinet to attract the attention of the officers and soldiers, so that once the officers and soldiers found that the search was fruitless, they would not pay attention to other places.
Everyone completely believed in Yan Fuliu, and in fact, Yan Fuliu did not live up to their trust, and now that they have successfully escaped from the predicament, everyone has a good impression of Yan Fuliu in their hearts.
"Eh, then again, Jean Boy, why are you here. Gao Xing grinned and asked about Yan Fuliu. The latter listened and said softly: "I also came to Xicheng to play, and then recuperate and adjust for a while, and then I will go to Qingcheng." ”
"Qingcheng?" Gao Xing was stunned, "I've been to a place where birds don't, and it's not interesting, what are you going to do there?"
Ye Tianxuan's big eyes rolled, and then he suddenly remembered something, and suddenly said, "When you go to Qingcheng, are you going to visit Liufu?"
"Exactly. Yan Fuliu looked at Ye Tianxuan and showed a smile, "I have a very good relationship with Liu Qin, the young master of this generation of Liufu, and this time the old man of Liufu is 80 years old, I want to visit and greet him." ”
"I've heard of the reputation of Liufu, but because it's so far away from Lingcheng, I've never met anyone from their family. Ye Tianxuan smiled and looked at Han Yun and Gao Xing, "That's why not, wait for this matter, how about we go to Qingcheng with Brother Yan to have fun?"
"Eighty years old...... Hey, it's going to be a very lively scene, and we're going to be able to eat and drink, huh...... Let's go, and we'll leave when the limelight has passed in the past few days. Gao Xing clapped his palms and seemed to have made up his mind.
Mu Tong on the side listened to their words, and his heart was inexplicably excited. They are going to farther places, so do you want to follow them to see more literati and knights, see more wind and snow, and explore more vast rivers and lakes?
Think of it this way...... Mu Tong suddenly felt that he could be taken out of the Mu family like this...... That's a good thing.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Han Yun chuckled, and then said, "Okay, when this is over, we will go to Qingcheng together." ”
"So, before that......" Han Yun suddenly patted Mu Tong's little head, "We should think about how to send this guy back." ”
Mu Tong was stunned, raised his head and looked at the smile on Han Yun's face, his heart was full of confusion.
