Mrs. Wan has been kidnapped! The news spread like the wind throughout the entire city of Beiping. Almost everyone was angry. Taking advantage of the opportunity, they rushed towards Wan's house. There was a huge crowd of people emptying out. "Who dares to kidnap our Wan's house?"
Madam, let’s kill whoever you want!” was their common sentiment.
Beiping City's security forces were also mobilized and set up sentries at major intersections. They first discouraged people from going home and not causing trouble. Anyone who refused to listen was regarded as a suspicious person and captured first, thereby ensuring the security of Beiping City.
.The city defense troops have also raised their level of combat readiness. The surrounding city gates are closed tightly and no one is allowed to enter or exit.
Soon, the city of Beiping turned into a heavily guarded and orderly empty city. In addition to guards, there were troops walking in and out of the streets. On the commanding heights of the city, there were also special inspectors with high-power telescopes.
Keep an eye on the main passages, and anyone walking around will not be able to escape their eyes.
Such tight security could not stop the kidnapper named Yue Chan. She first used Fu Wei to coerce Wan Lei to give her an order, and then threatened that if she found anyone following, she would cut Fu Wei's fingers, one cut at a time.
One root. She was so cruel and ruthless at a young age. Wan Lei didn't know how she developed such "psychological quality", but for the safety of his wife, he had no choice but to do it.
The kidnappers left the city from the east of the city. Without Wan Lei's orders, the city defense army immediately sent out scouts to follow them from a distance to find out the kidnappers' path so they could organize manpower to ambush them along the way. Wan Lei also led Zhao Xueer and a group of others to fight horses out of the city.
The city defense army was worried about his safety and advised him not to put himself in danger.
"My dear nephew, don't panic. Your wife is a lucky person. She will be fine. I have sent someone to deliver a message to Commander Zhou. He will send more people to rescue my wife." Tie Xuan also came to persuade Wan Lei not to leave the city.
, after all, it is a troubled time now, a group of refugees have just been taken in in the city, and something like this happens again, I have to calm down to sort out the clues.
How could Wan Lei calm down when his wife was kidnapped? He couldn't just sit in the city and do nothing. In his opinion, if a man can't even protect his wife, then there is no need to talk about his ambitions. So,
No matter how others persuaded him, he insisted on leaving the city.
Seeing that Tie Xuan couldn't persuade him, he had to ask the city defense army to send a team of a thousand people to follow him to avoid another accident. Before leaving the city, Wan Lei gave Tie Xuan a reminder and asked him to send the city defense team to check household registrations from house to house.
Do it once to Peking City
A thorough investigation was carried out to dig out those immigrants who were not on the household registration, because he vaguely felt that there were spies lurking in Beiping City. Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that he had just said that he wanted to buy a maid, and he had brought back a little kidnapper.
Although Wan Lei blamed himself for being ignorant of people and leading the wolf into the house, he also knew that it was useless to blame himself blindly. The most important thing now was to rescue the person. Fortunately, Zhao Quanzhong was smart and when he was fetching the kidnapper's horse, he
The horse was smeared with asphalt to make it easier for dogs to track it. When Wan Lei left the city, he took a dozen of the best hounds in the city with him.
On the way out of the city to pursue, Wan Lei also secretly thought: Ordinarily, the kidnapper went to such great lengths and staged such a realistic show just to get into his side. If she was really a royal guard sent by the imperial court, she would
The main target should be yourself, not your wife. Fortunately, your wife has the knowledge to know others, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
But Wan Lei still couldn't figure it out: During the day, she had many close encounters with the kidnapper. With so many good opportunities, why did she not act until she returned to the city? Could it be that she wanted to?
Was she willing to take action only after finding a perfect opportunity? Or, did she have an ulterior motive? She jumped into the wall after Fu Wei saw through her identity?
With all these questions, Wan Lei led a large force to pursue eastward. Since there were hounds leading the way, there were no detours along the way. But when they reached a small river not far from the city, the hounds barked at the other side of the river.
Five horses were found by the river, left by the kidnappers. Wan Lei's heart sank: the kidnappers must have taken Wei'er on the boat and escaped along the river.
Wan Lei raised his hand and looked up and down the river. He could see the endless reed marshes, but there was no boat in sight. Zhao Xueer also followed Wan Lei's example, standing on horseback and looking up, but couldn't find a single figure, frowning.
Asked: "Brother, what should I do?"
Wan Lei also shook his head helplessly. He never expected that the other party would be so well prepared, even preparing an escape route. He could only frown and said: "Let people guard the key points leading to Yongping Mansion and Baoding Mansion. Any attempt is strictly prohibited."
People were leaving the country. We divided into two parts and conducted a search along both sides of the river."
"By the way, send more people to patrol the beach and seize the boats when they see them." Wan Lei added, and personally led the team to search the lower reaches of the river.
Although it was getting dark at this time and it was very unsafe to spend the night in the wild, Zhao Xueer said no more and separated Chixinchicheng and two people to follow the other search team, while she and her sisters protected Wan Lei down the river.
search.
Just as Wan Lei was leading people to launch a dragnet search, three men in purple appeared in a dilapidated town in the east of the city. The first one opened the way, and the two behind them were carrying a cloth bag.
Since the people of Shuntian Prefecture have all moved to Beiping City, there are many ruined towns outside the city. They are very inconspicuous and rarely have people come here. These people who come here late at night are definitely not good people. How many of them are there in the ruins?
After a quick shuttle, they entered a ruined temple. The leader fiddled with the back of the Buddha statue for a while, then heard a click, and a dark tunnel appeared on the ground.
"Hide the person inside, and when the storm subsides, send him south." The leader of the person in purple was a woman, but her voice was full of hostility.
The two men in purple were carrying the bag and were about to dig into the tunnel, but the leader of the men in purple suddenly screamed: "No, someone is coming."
Those people in purple clothes were startled, and they all leaned down and dodged into the darkness. They were so fast, they must be Lian Jiazi, maybe they were hiding in the green forest.
"Sister Ma, we meet again. Why, why don't you come out and see your old friend?" A voice as light as a silver bell came from outside the ruined temple.
"Oh, it turns out it's Sister Liu. Why are you looking for her so late?" The leader of the purple-clothed man, surnamed Ma, stood up from the corner. The moonlight shone on her body, but she had a mask on her face.
Not clear about the true face.
"Haha, little sister, I'm here to congratulate you, eldest sister. You can just come and get the reward you deserve." The person who came was also covered, but you could tell from her voice that she was Liu Wan.
"The information given by the little sister is correct, but the person is not easy to get close to, so he failed to succeed."
"Haha, eldest sister, it's not like you have gained nothing. Tsk tsk tsk, you are really terrible. Sister Yue, at such a young age, actually kidnapped someone else's wife." Liu Wan praised her and then said: "Sister, you just need to transport the person.
If you return to the imperial court and serve as a hostage, you will have accomplished a great service and you will not have to worry about receiving a reward."
"It's just a woman, that person won't care. Now that the wind is so tight, it's uncertain whether it can be shipped out."
"Haha, do you want to be my sister's helper and give you a ride?" Liu Wan said with a smile, but as soon as she said "cheng", she suddenly jumped forward and grabbed her sister Ma. Her surname was Ma.
Women are not covered either
, seeing that the momentum was not going well, she made a clanging sound, and used the Xiuchun knife in her hand to cut off Liu Wan's offensive with a series of slashes and stabs. However, before the power of her knife could get any better, she felt a cold feeling in her waist, and a dagger
Across her waist.
"Don't move. You taught me that if I stabbed in from here, people would bleed to death." It was Yue Chan's voice, and the dagger in her hand was pointed at Sister Ma.
"Xiaoyue, you, what are you doing? Why are you plotting against one of your own?" Another man in purple was horrified and rushed to save her, but Yue Chan shouted angrily: "Don't move, if you move again I will kill her!" She was so frightened!
She stopped moving.
"Haha, one of our own? Our Xiaoyue is not one of yours." Liu Wan laughed wildly and jumped up, landing next to the dumbfounded man in purple, and kicked her away with one kick.
