The city lord Yang Yun didn't seem to worry about the horse bandits knowing that he wanted to offer a reward to save his granddaughter, because among the more than 40 people present, there might be an informant of the horse bandits.
However, there is nothing wrong with offering a reward to save people. Even if the horse bandits knew about it, they would not be able to reject it.
Furthermore, the horse bandit can actually use his granddaughter in exchange for the reward amount.
The horse bandits kidnapped and extorted 600,000 spiritual stones, and Yang Yun offered a reward of 500,000 spiritual stones.
This number actually has a meaning. He dare not exceed the extortion amount, nor can it be equal to the extortion amount.
If it is higher than the extortion amount, or equal to the extortion amount, then the kidnapper will decide that he would rather spend a lot of money to find hunters and fight against the horse bandits than to spend money to redeem his granddaughter, so the horse bandits will break up the fight.
Yang Yun cupped his hands to thank him. This man's face seemed kind, but his eyes were as sharp as swords.
If you dare to be a city lord in this uninhabited land in the Western Regions, you really can't do it without a few brushes and some real skills.
It can be said that if this person was not ruthless, his position as city lord would have been snatched away by others long ago.
"Then it's settled, haha, the five hundred thousand spiritual stones belong to the combination of our King of Strength."
The two giants, both over 1.90 meters tall, stood up laughing.
Both of them were holding distilled gold hammers. The hammer looked very heavy, probably at least 300 kilograms.
But when the two of them picked it up, it seemed as if it was nothing and they were very relaxed.
If you dare to be called the King of Strength, then you have great power.
"Haha, then everyone has to rely on their own abilities."
Everyone stood up laughing and quickly left.
If you leave earlier, you can find the horse bandits earlier, right?
So the hula-la hall immediately filled two-thirds of the room.
But there are still one third who have not left.
Ao Qian'er originally wanted to leave, and wanted to be the first to rush out to find the horse bandits.
But when she saw Zhou Wu sitting in his original position like an old man, the dragon smacked his lips and sat down again.
But she was also curious about why Zhou Wu was not in a hurry.
At this moment, someone suddenly asked: "May I ask City Master Yang, what is the specific location where the accident happened to your granddaughter?"
Yang Yun's eyes lit up: "On the official road in the eastern suburbs of Black Bear Ridge."
Those people who left just now didn't even ask for their specific location, so obviously those people didn't have any IQ. Saving people is like solving a crime. If you don't peel off the layers, you won't even be able to find the gangster's lair.
At this time, Zhou Wu also suddenly asked: "How old is your granddaughter exactly? What is her height and appearance?"
Yang Yun waved his hand: "Take the portrait!"
A young man with a gun immediately took out a portrait and handed it to Zhou Wu.
Zhou Wu glanced at him, he was quite young and pretty.
Zhou Wu nodded: "So when the bandit sent the letter, who sent it? Is there any letter?"
"It's unclear who sent it specifically, because the housekeeper accidentally found the letter at the back door, and the letter automatically burned to ashes after reading it."
Zhou Wu continued to ask: "Does your granddaughter have anyone accompanying you?"
Yang Yun looked at Zhou Wudao: "There are three family guards, but they all died."
"So who knows your granddaughter's itinerary?"
Yang Yun was extremely surprised at this time. This young man was not simple. He was so thoughtful. You know, no one else asked about these things.
"Most of the people in the house know Qianqian's itinerary, and they also know that she was coming back yesterday."
In fact, Yang Yun also suspected that someone in the government colluded with the horse bandits to create the kidnapping case.
However, there are too many people who know about Yang Qianqian's itinerary, including her disciples, servants in the mansion, etc., at least a hundred and eighty people know about it.
So there is no way to check.
"Okay, I understand, Qian'er, let's go."
Zhou Wu stood up with a smile.
"Aren't you going to ask?"
Ao Qian'er was confused and didn't know what Zhou Wu was asking about.
But she also knew that Zhou Wu suspected that there was a traitor in the city lord's palace.
So, why didn't Zhou Wu continue asking? If there was a traitor, Zhou Wu had a way to make the traitor confess in minutes.
But Zhou Wu did not continue. I don't know what his intention was.
"Young masters, please stay."
City Lord Yang Yun suddenly stopped Zhou Wudao: "May I ask who the young master is?"
"We are male and female!"
Ao Qian'er raised his neck, pointed at Yang Yuxian and said, "This is our housekeeper, Lao Yang."
"It turns out that they are both male and female, and we have admired them for a long time."
Yang Yun repeatedly raised his hands and became polite.
"You've heard of us? Shouldn't you?"
Ao Qian'er's face was full of questions. The names of these male and female evil spirits were just given by Zhou Wu. How could Yang Yun know?
Zhou Wu coughed lightly and said, "City Lord Yang, I won't disturb you anymore and I'll take my leave."
After saying that, he dragged Ao Qianer away.
Yang Yun was just being polite to him, "Jiu Yang" and the like were all polite words in the world, but this silly dragon took it seriously.
He pulled Ao Qian'er and strode out of the City Lord's Mansion. However, after leaving the City Lord's Mansion, the stupid dragon still had a question mark on his head and looked at Zhou Wudao: "How did he know the name of our group? Does he have the ability to read minds?"
"Stop it."
Zhou Wu couldn't laugh or cry and said: "He is just being polite to us, he knows what a chicken he is."
"Oh, I thought he had the ability to read minds, so let's go to Black Bear Ridge now." Ao Qian'er said anxiously.
"You can't find anyone if you go."
Zhou Wu shook his head and said, "I'm afraid some of those who left first knew that the place where the accident happened was Black Bear Ridge, so it's impossible to find anyone there."
"What should we do?" Ao Qianer asked puzzledly.
"Let's take a look around first."
Zhou Wu smiled, and then led the two of them in a circle around the city lord's palace.
After spinning around for two times, Ao Qianer couldn't bear it anymore: "What on earth are you doing? What should we do?"
"wait."
Zhou Wu took a deep breath and said, "Let's wait a few days and see what happens."
"I……"
Ao Qian'er was speechless. She thought Zhou Wu had some good ideas, so she just waited for a long time.
Yang Yuxian is also confused. What is going on with Mr. Zhou?
Wait a few days and see what happens.
Neither of them understood.
Zhou Wu took the two of them back to the inn. They had dinner again that night and it got dark.
When it got dark, Zhou Wu suddenly picked up a pen and paper, and quickly drew the outline of the City Lord's Mansion: "The City Lord's Mansion covers a large area, so starting from tonight, Lao Yang, you will guard the northeast corner, and Qian'er, you will guard the southwest corner.
Corners, these two are blind spots, if someone comes out, they are likely to jump out from these two directions."
"And your mission is, no matter who jumps out from these two places, you must capture them alive and not kill them."
"how about you?"
Ao Qian'er asked curiously.
"I'm on mobile patrol."
"You remember, the traitor will definitely escape from the city lord's mansion within these seven days, either during the day or at night, so as long as we hold on and catch the traitor, we can solve the case."
"Why are you so confident? What if there is no traitor? What if they don't run away?"
Ao Qianer seemed to have a hundred thousand reasons.
Zhou Wu rubbed her forehead dotingly: "The traitor will definitely run away, and it must be within these seven days, because no matter whether Yang Qianqian is dead or alive after seven days, the traitor will be very dangerous after seven days, so I bet that he will
run."
"Besides, even if he doesn't run away, I can still force him to run out on his own initiative. There are many ways, so just stay on guard."
