Seeing Leng Yi stop, the scholar's heart suddenly rose to his throat, with a flattering smile on his face: "Master, do you have anything else? If you like this dried dish, take it back and cook it.
.”
He held the dried vegetables in both hands, thinking that the other party was interested in this, but was pushed aside by Leng Yi.
Just when I turned around, there was something emitting light on the ground. You could only see it clearly with the help of the angle.
He quickly strode to the luminous object and picked up a crystal from the ground.
This crystal looks very familiar, it is the tassels of the hairpin that the princess wore when traveling that day.
"Come here, arrest everyone in this yard and send them to the Criminal Department for strict interrogation!" The cold tone and murderous eyes were like evil ghosts crawling up from hell.
The scholar didn't understand what part of the problem had gone wrong. He wanted to quibble a few words, but his mouth was covered and tied up, along with his accomplices in the yard.
"Head, what is this?" The guard thought this thing looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen it.
Leng Yi ignored his subordinates' inquiries and ordered again: "There is a cellar in this yard. We have to find it even if we turn over the ground!"
Soon the secret cellar was found. It was in the backyard full of weeds, and the crystal bead fell on the way to the backyard.
The cellar was filled with various fishy stenches and was full of traces of life.
Leng Yi went down to search for it himself, holding a torch and rummaging through the messy straw for usable information.
A red treasure filigree eight-tailed phoenix hairpin came into view, and it seemed that the princess spent those few days here.
Jun Lingye, who came after hearing the news, quickly grabbed the hairpin and checked it, and found that it was the same one that he had brought with him when they first met. The tension and anxiety in his heart were self-evident.
"A bunch of trash, the traffickers can't catch them, and they still have to rely on the princess to leave clues for us. Aren't you guys blushing?"
Leng Yi thought about the information on the note and said: "They should have left the city. In order to protect the safety of the princess, people in the entire slum can only enter but not leave!"
Because they don't know if the traffickers have any accomplices, if their discovery here is spread, the princess will definitely be in danger.
"Guard Leng, what do you mean?" Jun Lingye originally wanted to tell the emperor, but then he thought that the emperor might not really care about Su Yining's comfort. If these things were handed over, the emperor would block them on a large scale.
Leng Yi glanced at the people in the cellar and said solemnly: "One team went out of the city to pick up the princess, and the other team continued the search. Remember, news without news is good news."
Jun Lingye immediately understood what it meant. Because of Su Yining's relationship, he had to make peace with the people in Prince Zhan's Mansion. He didn't want her to die like this.
"I'm going out of the city to meet the prince!" This opportunity to get close to Su Yi Ning, he didn't believe that he would be slapped out by Da Bi Dou for saving his life?
Leng Yi immediately agreed. Thinking about the princess's avoidance of him a few times before and her unusual brain circuit, she subconsciously mourned for him in silence for a quarter of an hour.
Next, large-scale searches continued in the city, and Jun Lingye moved most of his forces out of the capital after the incident in the Liyuan.
After all, he has been targeted. He understands the principle of being careful when sailing a thousand-year-old ship, so he will not take risks easily. The goal of developing power in the city is naturally Su Yining.
Jun Lingye was not a fool. He memorized the sign of the secret guard transmitting the signal and found some simple and useful little notes.
These notes were secretly written by Su Yining in the cellar. She knew that she would soon be on the road to escape, so she wrote down many simple and clear keywords such as directions, rivers, city walls, etc.
"Master, we are a step late. People have already left along this way." There are obvious signs of crawling in the drainage ditch. How could the trafficker walk so fast with so many children?
Jun Lingye's expression was dark and unclear, staring hard at the hole, still holding the eight-tailed phoenix hairpin in his hand.
At the same time, Su Yining obediently followed the traffickers on his escape journey.
He works hard and never complains, and from time to time he compliments the Taoist priest, just like a fanatical believer.
Her innocent and clear eyes were burning with hot fire, and her little face was flushed.
"Taoist Priest, where are we going now? Have a drink of water!" There was a small water bag around her waist, a very inconspicuous thing. It seemed that it was not confiscated when she was thrown into the cellar.
They stopped to rest next to a creek. In order to avoid being pursued by officers and soldiers, they took difficult paths, which were rugged and muddy.
The big man is the strongest person here. He can walk as fast as he can while carrying so many children on his shoulders.
For convenience, they put the children into sacks respectively, and carried such a large package on their backs casually.
The other men carried a few children on their backs and followed them closely without saying a word.
The child inside has not made a sound yet, and it is not known whether he is dead or alive, but it seems that there should be no major problem.
The Taoist priest took the small water bag she handed over and said with a smile, "What's your name?"
"My name is Su Su, Taoist priest, are you hungry? I have some fruit here, I picked it just now." She took out another small nightshade plant. The black-purple fruit was very attractive.
The big man on the side had a gloomy expression and remained silent. He stared at Su Yining with murderous eyes, as if he always wanted to kill her.
The Taoist Priest was not a fool and recognized at a glance that this fruit was not poisonous. Instead, it was a good medicinal material for clearing away heat and detoxifying. He took it and ate the sweet fruit.
"Stinky Taoist priest, how long do you plan to take this girl with you?" The big man took out a dagger from his waist and kept scribbling on the dirt, restlessly.
Seeing this, she immediately hid behind her in fear and said in a crying voice: "Taoist Master, I'm very good, please don't kill me. I can wash and cook for you."
The Taoist priest loved her very much. He hadn't met someone who admired her so much in many years. The white-bone spirit had lost its value, so it was natural for him to go where she should go.
The white-bone spirit, whose hands had been crippled, fell to the ground and gasped. His face was abnormally rosy, and there were many beads of sweat on his forehead, and there were blood stains under his long sleeves.
"Big man, you have gone too far. Take care of your own people and don't think about harming others all day long!" The Taoist priest was obviously not afraid of him and stared at the subordinate behind the big man. The man was actually touching an unconscious child.
Then he said: "Master wants these people to be of great use. If you damage the goods, you can catch them yourself. Don't bring trouble to me!"
Su Yining squatted obediently behind the Taoist priest and carefully collected the dug wild vegetables. From their words, it could be seen that these children did not seem to be used solely for begging performances. It seemed that the people behind the scenes were of great use.
