Look at the mountains and rivers I have drawn

Chapter 711: Surrounding Xiqiu (Third update!)
The next day, Ye Yan found that the number of them going to work had decreased significantly.

Ye Yan immediately felt that something was wrong, so he sent someone to check their settlement, and it turned out to be empty.

"When I went that day, I saw that they were dishonest, and I didn't know where these people had gone." Changqing was a little annoyed.

All that remained were women, children and children, and they didn't know where those people had gone.

Ye Yan suddenly felt a little confused, he actually underestimated the enemy so much.

These are all foreigners, how could they give up so soon.

"Blame me, I was careless." Ye Yan sighed.

"Arrest them and interrogate them." Chang Qing said without hesitation.

Ye Yan shook his head: "They are all powerless people. If this group of people kept them, they must have never told them."

"I'm really pissed off." Changqing became angrier as he thought about it.

In contrast, Ye Yan seemed extremely calm. With so many of them, it was impossible for them to disappear all of a sudden.

"They must be nearby." Ye Yan concluded.

Changqing also agrees with Ye Yan, he disappeared so completely in such a short time, he must not go far.

"I just don't know what they are trying to do. Is it just to escape our control?" Ye Yan wondered.

After speaking, Ye Yan overturned his guess.

……

The store in the south of Nanli City, the jewelry store of the shopkeeper Li's family, was suddenly burglarized.

"Come on! Come on!" Shopkeeper Li shouted heart-piercingly.

The guys who got up early rushed to the store and looked at the panic-stricken shopkeeper.

"This..." As soon as the guys came in, they saw the messy shop.

Porcelain vases were smashed all over the floor, and all the jewelry in the drawers and cabinets were gone.

"My babies!" Shopkeeper Li burst into tears.

Shopkeeper Li looked at the debris on the ground and felt his heart was bleeding.

These porcelain treasures have been accumulated for many years, and those jewelry are all rare treasures from foreign lands.

"Who did it, was it you!" Shopkeeper Li suddenly stood up and shouted, pointing at a girl.

"Shopkeeper, no, I told you on leave yesterday, and I just came back today." The little girl was terrified, and quickly explained.

"Shopkeeper, please calm down, our immediate priority is to report it to the official." The clerk next to him quickly reminded him.

"Yes, yes, report officer!" Shopkeeper Li finally calmed down.

After the yamen received the news, they rushed to the shop immediately.

The law and order in Nanli has always been good, the roads are not picked up, and the people have always lived very comfortably.

Right now, such a big incident suddenly happened in the center of the city, and the official servant is also terrified.

After all, shopkeeper Li is a man of great insight. After he was anxious, he did not lose his footing and protected the scene.

The men were all sent to the yard to be questioned by the officials.

On the other side, there was also a scream from a ramen restaurant on West Street.

"He's dead!" It was the noodle cook who shouted.

Hearing the cook's shout, the boss and his wife ran out immediately.

At this time, the noodle shop is about to open, and everyone got up early to prepare in the back kitchen.

The body was found by the well, and the cook had collapsed on the ground, too frightened to speak.

"Boss, lady boss, look!" the cook said, pointing to the well.

The boss is tall and burly, looking at a person lying down beside the well.

Looking at Lao Wang, who was dressed like a back kitchen, he had no choice but to bravely go forward.

"Old Wang! Old Wang." The boss walked in slowly.

The cook tightly closed her eyes and hid behind the proprietress. When she stepped forward just now, Lao Wang was already cold and had no breath.

The boss took a closer look and found that something happened to Lao Wang.

I had never seen such a scene before, and the boss collapsed on the ground in fright.

Neighbors also heard the cook's voice and rushed over.

"Let me see, don't pile them up." An old man in the crowd said.

Judging by his attire, the husband is a doctor with a medicine box on his back.

The boss seemed to have grasped the life-saving straw, and asked the doctor to come forward to check.

Lao Wang fell there, maybe he just fainted, the boss still had luck in his heart.

The doctor stepped forward to feel the pulse, and he was completely dead.

"He's dead." The doctor shook his head and said with a sigh.

"No, his neck." When the doctor checked it, he suddenly found something was wrong.

The boss rushed forward to check and saw a dark pinch mark on Lao Wang's neck.

"It's murder! Old Wang was murdered!" The boss's fingers were trembling.

"Report to the official, I'll report to the official!" The boss was so frightened that his lips turned white.

His buddy died in his own backyard, and he felt his scalp go numb.

As soon as the yamen received the news, they immediately brought officials to the scene.

"Scatter, don't look!" The officials asked the surrounding people to leave.

The impact of such an incident is too bad, so as not to cause panic among the people.

Lao Wang was carried down by the officials, and the spectators were dismissed.

Ye Yan immediately got the news that two vicious incidents occurred in the city early in the morning.

"What, dead?" Ye Yan stood up in surprise.

Ye Yan has always been strict with Nanli's law and order, and every citizen must be well protected.

But such a horrible event happened under his nose, he could imagine how scared the people were.

The first thing Ye Yan did was to draw up a document to inform the people that the murderer must be found and not to panic.

Seeing that Nanli was in a mess, those people were extremely happy.

He wanted to strike while the iron was hot, take down Nanli in one fell swoop, and then make the city even more chaotic.

Little did they know, they were already being watched by Ye Yan.

Ever since Ye Yan learned that they were gone, combined with what happened this morning, he immediately knew that they were the ones who did it.

The hidden guards sent by Ye Yan searched everywhere in Nanli City, and they themselves also leaked their feet.

"Brother, there are people outside, and we are exposed."

After learning that Ye Yan's people were coming, the group fled back to Xiqiu.

Ye Yan was furious. In order not to cause panic among the people, he didn't mobilize the brigade and sent them back to Xiqiu.

"Assemble the troops and surround Xiqiu for me!" Ye Yan put on his battle attire and prepared to go there himself.

In a short period of time, Ye Yan surrounded Xiqiu to the brim, and those people were so frightened that they were at a loss.

Ye Yan also took back all the gold and silver jewelry that was originally snatched from Nan Li.

They didn't expect Ye Yan's strength to be so great, and he could call out so many soldiers and horses at any time.

The capabilities of Nanli's army also exceeded their expectations, and they moved extremely fast.

Ye Yan surrounded the entire Xiqiu, and found someone to rob their granary, and blocked their water source.

The whole Xiqiu was also in panic. The people of Nanli knew that it was the Xiqiu people who did the evil, and they were much calmer.

The food and water were all cut off by Ye Yan, and other expenses were also in Ye Yan's hands. The Xiqiu people were at a loss for a while.

"Ye Yan, you really did a great job on this matter. In fact, they bullied us to such an extent. Now we take all the people to surround their city walls. I'll see how they eat , Now that they have nothing to eat and wear, I see how they can continue to stay in the city."

The purpose of Changqing's few words to him was to praise him well, and he felt that what he did was really right.

"The reason why I did this is to tell the other party that if they are messing with me, I really don't mind doing more excessive things, and I also take this opportunity to tell other cities around us that if they are really like Xiqiu If the city looks like this, then I don't mind encircling them all, after all, we have quite a lot of troops here."
