It was Alain who captured the two of them, and when he saw the sneaky appearance of these two people, he knew that they must have something to do with the riot just now.

"Tell me, who are your two names, where is your home, and whether the explosion has anything to do with you, quickly recruit from the truth!" Alan read books before, and when he read that the judge interrogated the criminal, he would always see a similar sentence, and he didn't expect to be able to live a mouthful today.

One of them is Miss Zou Jia, her name is Zou Rui, she has lived in the Zou family compound since she was a child, she has lived for almost twenty years, and she has not been out much.

As soon as she went out, she saw a group of scholars passing by, some of whom were children from other compounds. But those were not important, nor did they attract her attention, she paid attention to a scholar in cloth, whose face was handsome, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, and he was so prominent in the crowd in plain clothes, but so harmonious, no one despised him because of his identity.

Later, the two had a lot of intersections and secretly fell in love, but not long ago, the bad news came that Zou Rui was going to get married. The old-fashioned elopement was staged, and the love story between the scholar and Miss Zou seemed to be about to break out of the cocoon into a butterfly in this chaos.

But now, this true love in their eyes has been destroyed by a teenager.

Alain listened quietly to the scholar's narration, he carefully observed the scholar's movements, and found that the emotions were true, but the two of them thought too simply.

The current head of the Lu regiment has been chased out of the county, and if the two of them are not captured by Alain, they will also be arrested at this time.

Scholars will be punished by the government for instigating and abducting the eldest lady of the Zou family, as well as detonating contraband. Miss Zou will also get married, marry someone she doesn't like, and the story of the two will become gray.

Alain didn't know whether to help them or hand them over to the government. So he called the other three, so in front of the pair of bitter mandarin ducks, Alan told this short story again.

So the four of them fell into the same predicament: although the story of the scholar and Zou Rui is slightly touching, it is far from touching the world, so the others themselves have nothing to do with this matter, and there is no reason to help, but if they are left alone, then the scholar and Zou Rui will inevitably be caught and punished, which is not what the four people want to see.

So the six of them stared at each other, Zou Rui was very reserved, but at this time, he looked very pitiful without saying a word. And the scholar pleaded with pleading eyes.

The reactions of the four also differed. Alan frowned slightly, Tu Fengnian showed displeasure, Zhou Bulong's eyes were full of compassion, and Qiao Su was a little drowsy.

Tu Fengnian, who is a scholar, supports the officials, and Pu Neng, who is a monk, supports and helps them, but he can't help them more, just help them leave Baihu County.

Alain thought about it for a while, and decided to ask him the question in his mind first. The scholar's name is Du Jiuzhu, he is a talent from Baihu County, and his family background is really not good, is the explosion really related to him?

"Du Jiuzhu, you should also know that the loud noise was a flint explosion, just at this time you eloped with Zou Rui, and this explosion is also related to you. ”

“...... The little brother guessed correctly, it was I who buried the flint and designed the trap to detonate. Du Xiucai hesitated for a moment, and then calmed down.

"You have a cloth coat, where did you get such contraband, the big lance strictly controls saltpeter, you can't get it from official channels, there must be someone in the dark to provide it. The dwarves are rich in minerals, and they send an unknown amount of minerals and weapons to the big lance every year, could it be that the people underground are mining in the dwarf country privately?" Alan was still a little confused before, but now the more he thought about it, the clearer it became, only to feel that these two people were a little involved, and his mentality gradually became the same as Tu Fengnian.

"You are not very old, but you have such a clear mind. But you don't have to be nervous, I only bought a small amount of saltpeter, those people don't care about this at all, and they have already left this place, even if you send us to the government, you won't get any clues, it's better to push the boat down the river and fulfill the two of us. The two of us really love each other, so you can really bear to beat the mandarin ducks?"

Alan obviously frowned, and no longer spoke, but Tu Fengnian was a little angry: "As a scholar, you actually act like this, are you worthy of the sage?

Xiucai sneered, shook his head and said: "You don't know deeply, and you don't know deeply, let alone the world, if I can marry my beloved by relying on my identity as a scholar, why take risks." It is true that the country is rich and the people are strong, but this does not mean that everyone is equal! In a place like Baihu County, the power of the gentry is greater than the sky, and even the government can't control much, even if I study hard and achieve great fame, but how long will it take, Rui'er will already be married to a wife by then!"

Xiucai took a deep breath again and bowed down: "Several people are not ordinary people, and they may be dissatisfied with the injustice of what I have done, but I am also forced to be helpless, and I just ask you to open up and fulfill a pair of bitter lovers! ”

Alan and the others looked at each other, there is a good saying, it is not about themselves, they are outsiders, they naturally do not understand the so-called infatuation and class estrangement.

In the final analysis, Du Jiuzhu and Zou Rui are indeed deeply affectionate, although there are injustices in what they have done, but this is also caused by class estrangement, and it is not their fault.

Alan and the others fell into the initial dilemma again: whether to ruthlessly hand over the iron mask to the government, or to thanklessly escort the two away.

To be honest, after listening to Xiucai's later words, several people were inclined to help each other, even Tu Fengnian didn't want to say anything more, after all, he didn't know the suffering of others, so don't persuade others to be kind. But the existence of the black hand behind the scenes has made several people with justice in their throats, but the clues have been broken and there is no way to find out.

Du Xiucai saw that the four of them were concerned, and said: "Actually, if you can help the two of us hide in the dark and hide my name, the people behind the scenes will know that I can escape from the government to track me down, and maybe they will think that I can be called a long-term customer and contact me again." I'm going to let you know and help you track it down, how about that?"

As soon as these words came out, Alan and the others finally made up their minds to help the two of them get out of everyone's sight.

...... Ten years later.

The head of the Zou family sat in the lobby, his eyes were deep, he held his forehead with one hand, and held a cyan jade pendant in the other, constantly rubbing it.

After such a long investigation, it is obvious that in addition to Zou Rui's disappearance, Xiucai, surnamed Du, is also missing! He has long heard that the two have a secret personal relationship, and he never thought that he would be exploited by a ghost. He also made several transactions until the existence of those flint merchants, but he didn't expect to lose his beloved daughter because of this.

The head of the Zou family doesn't know what's wrong with him, naturally there is not only one daughter, but this daughter is the daughter of a wife, and she has spent more time with him, and her feelings for each other are not bad, as long as marriage is not involved, the father and daughter get along very harmoniously.

These days, he often thinks about the past days, and he regrets that he was persecuted too much.

But if you want to say whether he has the heart to compromise, then the squire and the head of a wealthy family in this place will say that you Du Xiu is a toad who wants to eat swan meat. It's not a matter of feelings, it's a matter of getting the right thing.

Head Lu also lost face a little, and he said that he would recover Ling Ai, but he actually broke his promise. He also knew that someone must be there to help. Today's visit is also to clarify the reason.

Under the conversation between the two, the head of the Zou family slightly relieved the depression in his heart and made more "commitments". If you really want to talk about it, Zou Rui's marriage is actually of little significance, he just wants to solve the hidden danger, and he never thought that he would be attacked first...... But in general, the benefits are gained, and the head of the Zou family doesn't think much about it.

At this time, Du Xiucai and Zou Rui had already crossed Nanheng Mountain and came to Luzhou.

"Let's settle down here. I hope Alan and the others can finish their work as soon as possible and return to Luzhou. ”

Zou Rui's expression was a little dazed, "Du Lang, can we really be together like this?"

"Yes, you can relax. Let's live in peace first, and we will be able to enter the house in a short time. "The hukou system in Nanhai is not very strict, and generally speaking, after a few months of temporary residence, you can apply to officially become a resident of Nanhai Kingdom. At this time, in order to escape the pursuit, the two had to settle down at the foot of Nanheng Mountain to avoid the limelight temporarily. After living for a while, you can live a good life.

At this time, Alan and the others had already left Zhizhou and approached the center of the world, Zhongzhou.
