Yao Yuanxiao, Hua Bushi and others immediately left the drug store gate and rushed to the alley the two clerks had mentioned. However, they saw that this was a rather narrow passage with five or six feet high walls on both sides.
There is no door on the stone wall, and the bluestone pavement on the ground cannot even leave the marks of the wheels.
The exit at the other end of the alley is a main street. The roads extend in all directions and there are many cars and horses passing by on the street. No one will pay attention to the cars and horses driving out of the alley.
After everyone chased him out of the alley, the clues were completely lost.
Yao Yuanxiao stamped his feet and said angrily: "I don't know where that boy Xiong Tiannan took the eldest lady. There are too many side roads in this street and there are cars and horses everywhere. I don't know what that carriage looks like, so I can no longer pursue it.
Go down! But if you can escape, the monk cannot escape from the temple, so we will go to Xiongjiazhuang to ask for him!"
Hua Bushi said, "Wait a minute! This is the east city, but Xiongjiazhuang is in the west of the city, far away from each other. Xiong Tiannan will not take Miss Lan'er back to the village. If we go to Xiongjiazhuang to ask for someone, it will take at least half an hour to go back and forth. On the contrary,
It wasted time."
According to what the pharmacy clerk said, the two women were carried out of the car by a few big men. This means that Sima Rulan and the maid Xiaohong were restrained and forced to take another carriage away. If we can now
If we catch up with Xiong Tiannan in time and rescue the eldest lady of the city lord, we will be safe. If we delay for more than half an hour and Sima Rulan, a girl, falls into the hands of Xiong Tiannan, who knows what will happen.
Even if they go to Xiongjiazhuang immediately and Xiong Bailing leads them back to find Xiong Tiannan, the matter will probably be irreversible. At that time, even if Xiong Bailing pretends to punish his son, the two have an agreement to get married after all. Sima Rulan will not do anything but immediately
There is no choice but to marry Xiong Tiannan. I am afraid that this is the real purpose of the Xiong family and his son in arranging this strategy.
It's not that Yao Yuanxiao didn't know about this, but there were no clues to pursue at the moment, so going to Xiongjiazhuang to find Xiong Bailing's important person was a desperate move.
The elder of "Wanjintang" looked at Hua Bushi and asked: "Master Hua, does he have any good strategy to save the eldest lady?"
Hua Bushi turned to Zhu Hong and said, "You ride a fast horse back to Baotian Tower and bring the princess!"
After hearing this, Yao Yuanxiao slapped his thigh and said: "That's right! How could I forget that dogs have the most sensitive sense of smell. I must be able to smell the scent and follow it to find the eldest lady!"
Hua Bushi said: "I hope so. This is our only hope. If we really can't find it, we can only go to Xiongjiazhuang."
The eldest young master looked very calm on the outside and showed no sign of panic, but the anxiety in his heart was no less than that of Yao Yuanxiao. For Hua Bushi, although Sima Rulan and him were not the slanderous rumors,
That kind of lover relationship was his best friend in Okura City. Hua Bushi was able to overcome difficulties several times because of her help.
Now that Sima Rulan was in danger, he was determined to save him with all his strength. However, the smiles and smiles of the former city lord and the eldest lady were still in front of him, which made Hua Bushi even more upset and couldn't help himself.
This street is not far from the Waitian Tower. Only a moment later, Zhu Hong rushed back with the princess in his arms.
Hua Bushi took the princess to the alley, stared into the eyes of the big white dog, and said: "Your master was taken into a carriage by bad guys here. His whereabouts are unknown now and he is very dangerous. You must take us with you."
Find her, understand?"
The princess barked "Wangwang" twice, as if she understood what Hua Bushi said.
Hua Bushi waved his hand and said: "Go!"
The big white dog immediately stretched out its nose and sniffed around. Suddenly it barked several times and ran towards the street outside the alley.
Hua Bushi, Yao Yuanxiao and others immediately mounted their horses and followed the princess closely. Seeing the big white dog sniffing and running, it was obvious that he knew the direction of the carriage. Hua Bushi was secretly glad in his heart. It seemed that the carriage had left here.
Time is still short, the smell in the air has not dissipated, and the princess's wisdom not only helped it win the game, this time it also had to rely on it to track the carriage and rescue the owner.
Hua Bushi, Hai Hongzhu, Zhu Hong, Yao Yuanxiao, and the guards of the City Lord's Mansion totaled more than 20 people. Dozens of horses were riding side by side on the street, following closely behind a big white dog. There were also people in the horse team.
They shouted loudly, "Moves and horses, please give way to strangers." The scene was very strange. Pedestrians on the street stopped to watch as they saw what they were doing. Many people also recognized their identities and gave pointers and comments.
Unlike the idle pedestrians watching on the street, Yao Yuanxiao, Hua Bushi and others were all impatient, wishing they could find the eldest lady Sima Rulan immediately so that they could rescue her from the clutches of the devil.
Fortunately, the princess was not too slow. Whenever she passed a fork in the road, she chose a very determined route to follow. Soon she had led a group of people through three turns and ran out of five or six streets.
.
At the corner of the street ahead, there was a four-carriage black carriage parked. The princess ran to the carriage, opened her mouth and screamed, and jumped on the carriage. Yao Yuanxiao and all the guards of the city lord's palace immediately patted the horse.
As he galloped closer, the carriage was instantly surrounded.
The groom sitting in front of the car screamed when he saw this: "Who are you! These are the carriages and horses of Xiongjiazhuang. If you dare to mess around, don't you risk your life!"
As he spoke, he went to get the whip. Yao Yuanxiao was riding on the horse, stretched out one hand, grabbed the groom's wrist, and shouted: "What are you yelling for! I am Yao Yuanxiao, and what I'm looking for is Xiongjiazhuang's car."
horse!"
As he spoke, he looked into the carriage, but saw that there was no one else in the carriage except the big white dog princess. He tightened his grip and asked, "Where has Xiong Tiannan taken the eldest lady of the city, please tell me!"
Yao Yuanxiao's fingers were extremely strong. At this moment, he held the groom's wrist, and when he squeezed hard, the opponent's bones made a "gurgle" sound, and was almost crushed to pieces. The groom screamed loudly in pain, but it was
Refuses to answer.
At this moment, the princess suddenly jumped out of the carriage, sniffed in front of the carriage for a few times, and then ran towards the door of a restaurant on the street. Yao Yuanxiao knew that the big white dog must have smelled the owner's scent and followed it.
, then with a flick of his arm, he knocked the coachman straight out, threw him heavily to the ground, and shouted: "Everyone, follow the princess to that restaurant!"
This is a large restaurant with two floors. There are five or six stone steps in front of the door. The door is very well decorated. On the big red painted pillar next to the door, there is a signboard that reads "RT-Mart".
A big character.
This "RT-Mart" is one of the best restaurants in Okura City, but it is not owned by the Xiong family, but is owned by "Xinglong Village" in the west of the city. Without the princess to lead the way, Yao Yuanxiao would have never expected that Xiong Tiannan would bring the eldest lady here.
.
Yao Yuanxiao jumped up from the horse, leaped six feet horizontally, came to the door of the restaurant, followed the princess and rushed into the door of the restaurant. It was still early in the day, and there were not many diners in the lobby, so it was very empty. , there were only one or two waiters, who were clearing away the tables and chairs.
The princess sniffed around for a while, then ran towards the stairs.
As soon as it ran to the stairs, it was blocked by four big men. These four big men were all dressed in white shorts and had their hair tied into pigtails. They were none other than Xiong Tiannan's four nondescript followers, the "book boys."
At this time, Zhu Hong protected Hua Bushi and Hai Hongzhu and rushed into the door of the restaurant. Most of the twenty or so guards from the City Lord's Mansion also entered the lobby, leaving only a few people guarding the door. These guards are all elite members of the "Wanjintang" gang in the city lord's mansion. They are usually well-trained and know how to deal with such situations.
Yao Yuanxiao was eager to save people, but he didn't care about many things. He jumped to the stairs with a "kité flying through the forest", held the iron staff in his hand and rushed upstairs, shouting: "Everyone who blocks the way will get out of my way." Get out of here!"
The four "book boys" would not move away, and after hearing a few "swish" sounds, they each pulled out their shiny daggers and faced Yao Yuanxiao.
Yao Yuanxiao was skinny and looked like he didn't have even a few ounces of flesh in his body. However, when he swung out his iron staff, it made a sound of wind, and his momentum was extremely powerful! He only heard two "ding ding" sounds, and sparks flew everywhere, and the two "books" The dagger held by "Tong" intersected with the iron staff. He could no longer hold it and flew out of his hand, falling straight to the bottom of the stairs.
The other two bookboys did not dare to use their swords to confront each other head-on, and hurriedly retreated, hoping to get out of the way temporarily. However, Yao Yuanxiao took a quick step forward, raised his staff, and struck out before the two of them could take a step back!
Amidst the muffled sound, the two bookboys were hit with a stick each, but this time it was no longer the dagger that fell to the bottom of the stairs, but two big living people who were beaten and fell straight down the stairs!
These four "book boys" were Xiong Tiannan's personal followers, and they were not mediocre, but they could not stop Yao Yuanxiao's moves and were immediately beaten to pieces.
At this time, a heavy wind suddenly sounded, and a force of palm struck down from the stairs, reaching Yao Yuanxiao's chest. The elder of the inner hall of "Wanjin Hall" hurriedly blocked it with his staff, "Bang" There was a loud bang on the ground, and the palms and sticks collided. The two sides were equally powerful, but Yao Yuanxiao could no longer stand. He jumped back a few feet, stepped on the stairs with his feet, and cracked a piece of the board.
Looking at the person holding the palm, he is a six-foot-tall strong man in green robes, wearing a melon skin hat, with a sinewy face and an evil appearance. The joints on the two giant palms are sharp, and the hands are obviously hard. Great work.
He had a head-on collision with Yao Yuanxiao, and had to take two steps back before he could stand firm.
However, Yao Yuanxiao recognized the strong man in green robes, and his face darkened immediately, and he shouted: "Xiong Kui! What do you want from Xiongjiazhuang when you kidnapped the eldest lady of the city lord upstairs? Get out of the way quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude!"
But the strong man in green robe said with a smile: "Elder Yao, our young village owner and Miss Lan'er have already made an engagement, so why do you need to take care of the affairs between this young couple? The young village owner just now We have already ordered that no one is allowed to go upstairs to disturb you. I think you should go home and rest!"
Hua Bushi, who was in the lobby downstairs, saw the strong man in green robe on the stairs, but his expression changed slightly, and he asked a guard from the City Lord's Mansion beside him: "Who is this person?"
