I wish for a long time

When Ye Jiu and Lu Lin rushed back to the inn, it was already too late.

The inn was in a mess, the tables, chairs and benches were turned upside down.

With a buzzing sound in his head, Ye Jiu propped himself up and ran up to the second floor, pushing her away from her room.

There was no one inside.

Ye Jiu rolled his eyes and almost fainted.

"Brother Ye!"

Lu Lin appeared behind her and caught her.

Ye Jiu took two breaths, stood up straight, and said in a sharp tone, "Where is the old man?"

Lu Lin shook his head calmly.

Ye Jiu instantly felt that the sky was falling.

Why didn't she expect this to happen!

Nan Yuan scratched Mei Lao Wu last night, this is like breaking ground on Tai Sui's head, Mei Lao Wu will definitely not let it go.

Why did I leave Shao'er alone in the inn today!

She clenched her hands into fists, and her eyes were full of anger.

She didn't dare to imagine the consequences of Qi Shaoan being taken away... not at all.

"Where is Xiao Er? Where is Xiao Er?" Ye Jiu ran downstairs like crazy.

"Here...here!"

A tray was raised behind the counter, and half of his face was revealed, Xiaoer said tremblingly, "Young master...Young master, there is really nothing to smash..."

Ye Jiu rushed up and pulled him out: "Let me ask you, where did the woman in blue who was traveling with me go, and there was an old gentleman, where did everyone go?!"

Xiao Er shivered: "No... I don't know..."

Ye Jiu stared: "This is your store, if someone lost it in your store, tell me the fuck you don't know?!"

Xiaoer was so anxious that he almost cried, "I really don't know. Not long after you left this morning, a group of people in blue short jackets rushed in, saying they were looking for the young man who was with you yesterday. Said he wasn't there, and the group started smashing the store."

Ye Jiu was so angry that stars appeared in front of his eyes: "Get to the point! And then?"

"Then...then they went upstairs to search from room to room. I was afraid and hid. I really don't know the whereabouts of your wife and father!"

Ye Jiu didn't care about his title, and let him go, "How do you get to the county government office!"

Xiao Er immediately stretched out his hand: "Turn left when you go out, turn left again when you see the banyan tree, and you will be there when you go straight."

"Lu Lin, let's go!"

……

Ye Jiu went out and ran towards the banyan tree. Seeing that he was approaching, he was suddenly stopped by a person: "Master??"

Ye Jiu slammed on the brakes, only to find out that it was Nan Yuan.

She grabbed him: "Nanyuan, call everyone back quickly, Shao'er and the old man are gone!"

Nan Yuan's eyes widened, and he exclaimed, "It's gone??"

"It's too late to say, you take people to Hongfu Casino right now, they are very likely to be there! I'm going to report to the officials now, you first find a way to sneak in, and then use Cuckoo as your name."

Nan Yuan held her back, "My lord, I will go to the county government office with you, I am familiar with the affairs of the government."

He turned to look at Lu Lin: "This is the assembly whistle. After you blow it, wait for a stick of incense, and they will come."

"Okay." Lu Lin quickly took it.

Ye Jiu nodded immediately: "Okay, I'll leave the gambling house to you, be careful."

……

"Boom boom boom——"

He beat the drum three times to cry out his grievances, but Ye Jiu didn't care about that, and beat the drumsticks desperately.

"Who is who!!" The gatekeeper came out covering his ears with a disgusted look on his face.

"I want to report to the police! My wife and housekeeper were kidnapped! Please make the decision!" Ye Jiu threw the drumstick and ran forward.

The yamen servant looked Ye Jiu up and down, and asked lazily, "When did it happen?"

Seeing his attitude, Ye Jiu suppressed the anger in his heart, and said as calmly as possible: "This morning at the inn, Hongfu Casino sent thugs to smash the shop, and my wife and housekeeper disappeared."

The yamen servant didn't care when he heard the words, and even yawned: "Hey, did you gamble, and someone asked your wife to pay off the debt?"

"This is too common. Instead of reporting to the police here, it's better to go home and sell the house and farmland. Maybe your wife is not doing well."

Ye Jiu felt that a fire rushed directly to Tianling Gai, she pushed the gatekeeper away, strode into the county office, and shouted loudly as she walked:

"In broad daylight, the world is bright and bright, under the watchful eyes of everyone, someone smashed and robbed the shop and robbed the women of the people! Master Meixian, are you just sitting idly by!!"

The yamen guard was pushed and staggered, and suddenly became anxious, "You scumbag, you are really rebellious, how dare you come to the yamen to make trouble!"

"Brothers, come! Take them down for me... Whoops!"

Nan Yuan thought the gatekeeper was too noisy, so he slapped him on the door.

As soon as Ye Jiu walked into the courtyard, a lot of people in police uniforms suddenly appeared all around, and within a few moments, they surrounded the two of them.

Ye Jiu snorted coldly, "I've never seen you work so hard at catching bad guys, but you're quick to settle the plaintiff!"

"Stop talking nonsense, take it down!" The gatekeeper got up and shouted in a trembling voice.

"I see who dares!" Nan Yuan jumped in front of Ye Jiu with a somersault, and stretched his hand forward:

"The guard order of the Marquis of Zhenyuan is here, who dares to make a mistake!"

The fast yamen servant who had just rushed a few steps suddenly staggered.

Several people looked at each other, what?

What did this brat say?

"Zhen... Zhenyuanhou Mansion??"

The policeman closest to Nanyuan opened his eyes wide, carefully identifying the token in his hand.

The four seal characters of "Zhenyuanhou's Mansion" hovered on the iron plate, and the policeman turned his head to look at Ye Jiu in a daze.

Who would be the one who can be guarded by the soldiers of the Marquis Mansion?

The man in the dark blue robe looked at him coldly with his hands behind his back.

The catcher suddenly didn't know what to do.

"Who is making noise here?"

A man in a round robe in green came out from one side of the corridor. Seeing this situation, he quickly walked up to them.

Nan Yuan sized him up a few times, then suddenly clasped his fists in salute, "Nan Yuan, the guard of the Zhenyuan Marquis's Mansion, has seen the magistrate."

Ye Jiu watched Nan Yuan salute, hesitated for a moment, and followed suit.

The person who came was stunned for a moment, showing the same expression as the arrester, "Zhenyuanhou's Mansion??"

Nan Yuan handed over the token: "Yes, the young lady of the family and the housekeeper Yu Meizhen Rongshang Inn were kidnapped, and I would like to ask your lord to help, Nan Yuan is very grateful."

The county magistrate frowned. Although the guards of the Hou's mansion were only retainers and had no official position, the man above his head was the dignified Marquis of Zhenyuan.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, he knows this well.

The county magistrate nodded slightly: "Then do you have a clue?"

Ye Jiu raised his head and replied, "Yes, Hongfu Casino."

The county magistrate's face changed slightly when he heard the words, but he still asked calmly: "Gambling house?"

After Ye Jiu explained the general process, the county magistrate frowned and glanced sideways.

Ye Jiu saw that he was a little weird, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Well, I'll send a team of detectives to follow you two..."

"The hall is the magistrate's man?"

Another voice sounded suddenly, Ye Jiu looked at the gray-robed man who appeared at the corner of the corridor, and was a little confused for a moment.

She and Nan Yuan looked at each other, not knowing what the man was talking about.

The gray-robed man walked up to the crowd in a few steps, and bowed his hands to the county magistrate first, "Hold on, majesty magistrate, let the villain ask a few questions."

The county magistrate waved his sleeves to signal him, "Master, please go ahead."

The gray-robed man smiled at the two of them and said, "Are you two staff members of Mr. Xu, Zhizhou?"

Ye Jiu frowned, Master Xu of Zhizhou?

That jealous Zhizhou?

Nan Yuan reacted when he heard the words, and quickly cupped his hands: "Exactly, I don't know my lord?"

The gray-robed man laughed and said: "That's it, you two please come with me."

……

After passing through several doors and two courtyards, the man in gray robe led them to a door and motioned them to go in.

Ye Jiu and Nan Yuan were extremely anxious, they hurried into the room, but were stunned.

A middle-aged man was leaning on the teacher's chair on the left, and he was drinking tea leisurely at this moment.

And to his right, a water-blue figure was holding his head, and only a silhouette was seen.

But Ye Jiu recognized it at a glance, who is it not Qi Shaoan?

Hearing the commotion, the old man raised his head, looked at Ye Jiule and said with a chuckle, "Jin'er is finally here."

Seeing the two of them, Nan Yuan suddenly felt relieved and heaved a sigh of relief.

Qi Shaoan was startled when he heard the words, and turned his head in an instant, and what caught his eyes was Ye Jiu's stunned appearance like a stone statue.

"Ajiu..."

As soon as Qi Shaoan called her, he watched Ye Jiu suddenly put his hands on his knees, bent over and laughed.

The people in the room were a little confused for a moment.

Ye Jiu trembled all over, and sat down on the ground as if he had lost his strength, propped his body behind his hands, and laughed.

"Why don't you say anything about changing positions... Haha... Are you trying to scare me to death..."

She smiled and laughed, and the tears couldn't stop flowing.

"I thought...haha..."

Qi Shaoan was stunned by her appearance, and then she turned around, her heart was suddenly sour, and her distress was beyond words.

She hurriedly got up and went over, bent her knees and knelt beside Ye Jiu, wrapping the crooked man into her arms.

"I'm sorry Ajiu, I made you worry."

Ye Jiu cried so hard that he couldn't breathe, but he still sucked in the cold fragrance from Qi Shao'an's body.

She tightly grasped Qi Shaoan's arm, "I thought you were taken away by that bastard... Woooo..."

Listening to Ye Jiu's grievance and crying, Qi Shao'an felt as if countless needles were poking her heart one after another, causing slight pain and bursts of soreness, which made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

She had no choice but to gently stroke Ye Jiu's temples, and explained softly:

"The situation was urgent at that time, and the old man was afraid that the store would collude with them, so he didn't leave a word."

Ye Jiu sniffed, raised his eyes and asked her, "By the way, how did you end up in the yamen?"

Qi Shaoan looked at her tearful eyes, and stroked her cheek with his thumb, wiping away the remaining teardrops.

She said slowly: "The old man had a clever plan. After realizing that someone might seek revenge, he feared that their local tyrants might be powerful, so he brought me directly to the yamen."

"I didn't expect it, but I didn't expect it."

Ye Jiu listened, his heart was still beating non-stop, as if he hadn't recovered from the thrill just now.

The old gentleman narrowed his eyes, stroked his beard and smiled, "Jin'er's family has been handed over to the old man, so I will take care of it for you."

Ye Jiu was stunned for a moment, looking at the old gentleman's slightly lazy and slightly smiling face, his heart was a little agitated.

She patted Qi Shaoan's arm, straightened up from her arms, straightened her clothes, and suddenly kneeled solemnly in front of the old man.

The old man's smile froze.

"...Ajiu?" Qi Shaoan looked at her a little at a loss.

Ye Jiu looked at the old man with piercing eyes, clasped his fists in his hands, and paused every word: "Ye Jiu will always remember the old man's life-saving grace."

After all, he knocked his head to the ground.

For a while, everyone was stunned.

Qi Shaoan clenched her sleeves tightly, bit her lip and looked at her back.

Obviously those shoulders are not considered generous, obviously sometimes fragile like a child, obviously don't like so much...

But for herself, she did almost everything.

Qi Shao'an hurriedly lowered his head, tears fell straight to the ground, without leaving any marks on his face.

"Jin'er, you can't do this!" Seeing this, the old gentleman hurriedly stood up and supported her.

He sighed, "Jin'er, as I said, Uncle Bai is still the old Uncle Bai, Jin'er cherishes it, and Uncle Bai should do his best."

Hearing this, Ye Jiu raised his head and looked at the old gentleman's face in a daze.

Nan Yuan suddenly knelt down on one knee with a plop: "This matter is due to Nan Yuan's recklessness, and it has caused trouble to the Young Master and the Young Madam, please punish the Young Master."

Ye Jiu turned his head, was stunned for a moment, and suddenly laughed:

"Whether it's fine or not, fortunately, it's no big deal. Next time, don't be arrogant."

Nan Yuan nodded: "Yes."

A few people got up and calmed down, but there was a knock on the door, "Is sir here?"

Everyone looked at the door together, only to see a man in a red round collar pushed open the door and stepped into the room.

The old gentleman bowed his hands to him: "Master Li."

Li Wenwen, the county magistrate of Meixian County, looked gentle and elegant, with a scholarly air.

The old gentleman stepped aside to let Ye Jiu say, "Jin'er, this is Lord Li, the county magistrate. You can tell him anything you find."

Ye Jiu was a little surprised, looked at the old man and blinked.

How did he know he was coming?

The old gentleman gave her a reassuring look, and Li Wenwen smiled slightly when he saw this, "Sir, if you have anything to report to your subordinates, just tell me, I will definitely make the decision for you."

……

It took Lu Lin a lot of effort to sneak into the back door of the casino.

He parked the cart aside, looked at the people in the basket, picked up two more cabbages, and buried them gently on top.

The unconscious servant: ...

Lu Lin looked left and right to see if there was no one there, and walking along the inner wall towards the courtyard cat inside.

Relying on more than ten years of escape experience under sticks, Lu Lin successfully found a dark room.

This house is a little different, because only its door is guarded.

Lu Lin saw that the two people were sticking like bamboo poles, and they didn't seem to move at all. He secretly gritted his teeth and began to think about countermeasures.

He walked around from the back of the room, followed the narrow boat alley, and reached the window sill of the house.

Lu Lin stood up cautiously. The window paper was a little tattered because of its old age, so he happened to look inside.

Inside Yomo is a woodshed, half of the room is piled up with large bundles of firewood and old shelves.

He looked from left to right, but found no difference.

Lu Lin frowned and wondered, if there was nothing, why would he send someone to guard it?

"Third Master!" There was a sudden noise at the door, and Lu Lin quickly hid himself.

"How about those girls?" Lu Lin recognized He San's voice.

Another voice sounded: "The girls sent by the third master looked for death as soon as they woke up, and were beaten unconscious by the brother. The sixth master also brought one back today, and that girl was even more reckless, and she was already taken away by Mei Niang." gone."

He San's roguish laughter came: "Mei Niang's hand is her good fortune, hahaha. Then I'll go in and have a look."

Lu Lin panicked when he heard that, there were two groups of people who went out today, one group was led by He San, and the other group went to smash up the inn, so the "sixth master" brought them back...

Lu Lin didn't even dare to think about it. He held his breath and looked inside through the window.

He San walked up to a pile of firewood and kicked things aside, suddenly several shadows of various colors appeared.

Lu Lin looked intently and was stunned.

A few women in thin clothes curled up behind the broken wooden frame, and when they saw someone coming, they shrank back.

There was also a pale blue figure lying on the ground.

Lu Lin recognized that it was Miss Xu from the morning family.

But he soon discovered that there was no young lady in this group of people.

His heart sank, that is to say, the one Meiniang took away...

"Yo, I'm still looking for death."

In the room, He San squatted down and grabbed the woman's chin.

The woman whined and struggled to stand up, but was held down by He San.

"Smelly bitch, she's quite strong, like a master."

He San grabbed her collar and tore it open vigorously, "That wimpy gentleman of yours threw you here for his own life, you're a fart."

Lu Lin panicked when he saw it. The woman was struggling, but she couldn't resist the man's strength.

He cursed in a low voice, jumped up and kicked, and broke through the window immediately.

"Who... um!" He San just turned his head, and before he could shout out, he was knocked unconscious.

"Third Lord?" The guard at the gate asked tentatively when he heard the movement.

Lu Lin lowered his voice: "Go away, don't disturb my good business!"

"Yes Yes Yes."

The guard didn't make any more noise, and the room was eerie.

"Bah, bastard." Lu Lin took a bite of He San, and under Miss Xu's frightened eyes, he pulled off the rag and wrapped her up.

"You guys don't make any noise, I'll come to rescue you in a while." Lu Lin tied up He San, stuffed his mouth with a rag, and ordered in a low voice.

Several women nodded repeatedly, Lu Lin walked lightly to the door, paused, and quickly pulled the two of them in as soon as the door opened.

He knocked one of them unconscious, then suppressed the other, and asked viciously, "Tell me, where is Mei Niang!"

The guard put his face on the ground and took a mouthful of dirt, "Where the hell did it come from... Ah!"

Lu Lin reached out and broke one of his arms.

"I'll ask again, where is Mei Niang?"

The guard wailed for a while, and said tremblingly, "At the end of the lane, Yihong Courtyard..."

Lu Lin's face turned pale when he heard that, he knocked the guard unconscious without saying a word, and rushed out.

Unexpectedly, a group of thugs rushed forward.

His face darkened, and he was a little puzzled, why so many people came out suddenly.

"Take it down!" the leader shouted, raising his hand.

Lu Lin looked at the thugs rushing towards the wind, his eyes were red, he picked up the guard's wooden stick, and knocked down the nearest one.

He squinted his eyes, and just as he moved his feet, there was an obvious movement behind him:

"Cuckoo cuckoo cuckoo~"

Lu Lin was startled, but immediately reacted, and turned his head back.He looked at the thugs running towards him, and the corners of his mouth raised:

"Let the young master teach you how to behave today!"

……

Ye Jiu and his party drove all night, and finally arrived at the next town before the curfew.

"call--"

"I'm really exhausted."

Ye Jiu lay on his back on the bed, reaching out to beat his sore thigh.

Qi Shaoan put down the package, turned around and looked at Ye Jiu's lying posture stretched out, and bent his lips helplessly.

She walked over to the bed and sat down, putting her hands on her lap.

Ye Jiu let out an "ah", and then there was a gentle kneading sensation on his legs.

She froze for a moment, then rolled her eyes with a smile.

"Then what?" Qi Shaoan turned his head halfway and raised his eyebrows.

Ye Jiu relaxed and stretched out his arms, "Hey, Lu Lin didn't know that you were already in the yamen at that time, but saved the detained girls by mistake."

"You don't know, when he limped and threw himself in front of me, telling me that you were taken away by Mei Niang, that kid was about to cry."

Ye Jiu lowered his head and sighed softly.

She brought people in and realized that it was the first time that Lu Lin Mingming was able to save so many girls against so many people who knew martial arts, although he also suffered several sap blows.

It was only at that moment that she suddenly realized that the young man who was blushing even when he was speaking could already be alone.

"Lu Lin values ​​friendship the most."

Qi Shaoan pursed her lips, feeling disappointed.She turned her head to look at Ye Jiu, half of her forehead was covered by loose bangs, her long eyelashes were drooping, and her thin lips were pursed.

In fact, Ajiu is also pretty tight.

"Fortunately, everything is over."

Ye Jiu propped himself up and sat up, "Who would have thought that the county magistrate, who looks like a man, is colluding with the gambling house."

If he hadn't tipped off the news, Lu Lin might not have needed to be swung a few times.

"Mei Laowu was sentenced to hang, Mei Niang was imprisoned for ten years, and the gambling house was also investigated. It seems to be a happy ending."

Qi Shaoan heard that there was something in her words, and turned to look at her.

Ye Jiu sighed, put his arms around Qi Shaoan, and hung on her body like a koala.

Qi Shao'an felt a small head resting on his neck and shoulders, and his hot breath hit his neck, making it a little numb.She reached out and wrapped her arms around her waist.

"Shao'er, tell me, what should those girls do..."

Qi Shaoan was stunned for a moment, and quietly listened to her next words.

"Most of them were abandoned by their families and used to repay debts like objects. What do you think they will do in the future? What's wrong with them..."

Ye Jiu frowned.

Take the little lady Xu I met this morning, no matter whether she went to the county government to testify or sent back to Xu's family, her eyes were completely dull.

She even wondered if she had stopped Xu Sheng before he said those heart-wrenching words, would it have a different ending.

Miss Xu won't know the little Jiujiu in Xu Lang's heart, and she can even live a peaceful and beautiful life.

The saddest thing is the death of a heart, but these women have been hurt deeply.

"Girl, are you born like this?"

Qi Shao'an felt the deep emotions of the person in her arms, she tightened her arms, and boldly kissed her ear, "Not all women are like Ajiu, who always have strange thoughts."

Ye Jiu absorbed the faint crabapple fragrance from Qi Shaoan's body, and his heart felt a little more at ease.

"If so, they also have such an idea."

Qi Shaoan was startled, and turned to look at her.

Ye Jiu met those bright eyes, and suddenly smiled, "It's nothing, Shao'er, are you hungry, I bought some pastries on the way."

Because their identities were exposed, they were afraid of staying in Meizhen for another accident. As soon as this matter was over, they rushed to the present town without stopping.

Qi Shaoan gave a soft "hmm".

Ye Jiu jumped off the bed and pushed aside the burden, "Fortunately, I packed a pack of plum cakes, Shao..."

"boom--"

There was a sudden noise in the room, and Ye Jiu subconsciously turned his head.But just after turning 10 degrees, she stopped.

Because she felt that something cold was pressing against her neck.

The author has something to say: Hey... I wrote it for a day...

Isn’t the number of words very touching! !

Tomorrow I'm thinking about Saturday... um... I'll think about it first...
