He Yunxi rode his horse and quickly arrived at the county government office.
Looking at the time it took, she felt that the carriage was worth buying.
After entering the county government office, the government officials heard that she had clues about meeting Luo Zixuan, so they took him to the prison and told her that Lu Yan was also there.
When she arrived outside the prison, the officer asked her to wait outside while she went in to report. Soon Lu Yan and Luo Zixuan arrived.
"This is what the kidnapper gave me." He Yunxi handed the letter to Lu Yan, "I suspect that this has something to do with Guangwei Tower."
Lu Yan read it under a torch and had similar assumptions to hers.
"Have those people told the news about Lao Si and Xiao Wu?" He Yunxi asked Luo Zixuan.
"They only said that someone asked them to kidnap a few children. They saw that Lu Yunjiao and Lu Yunqing were good-looking, so they only gave them two boys, and they kept the two girls."
"So, they don't know the whereabouts of Lao Si and Xiao Wu."
Luo Zixuan nodded, "That's true."
"Who are the people looking for them? Have they provided any clues?"
"No."
He Yunxi was silent, looking up into the boundless night, not knowing where to find the two children.
Will they be afraid on such a night?
Lu Yan showed the letter to Luo Zixuan, saw He Yunxi looking silently into the night, and walked over to hold her arm.
He Yunxi looked back at him and said, "It's so dark today. I don't know if the two little guys are scared or not."
"No." Lu Yan said, "They are boys. When encountering something like this, they should find a way to save themselves instead of being afraid."
He Yunxi glared at him: "They are still children."
"A half-grown child." Lu Yan corrected.
"Do you know where the shopkeeper of Guangweilou lives? I want to see if I can find out any information."
"I know, we..."
"Look, there's fire!" He Yunxi suddenly pointed in one direction and said, "There's water somewhere!"
Lu Yan and Luo Zixuan looked over and saw a faint light of fire.
"It seems like the water has really escaped." Luo Zixuan said, "Quick, Chang Yue, gather the people and rush over to put out the fire."
Lu Yan looked at the direction of the fire and said, "That area is not a residential area."
He Yunxi's expression changed: "Could it be the fourth child and the fifth child?"
"them?"
"I told them before entering the city that if they get lost, they should wait where they are. If they are abducted, they should first pretend to obey, and then take advantage of others' unpreparedness and make noise to draw attention to the place." He Yunxi said,
"If it wasn't a residential area over there, how could a fire break out so late? So it's most likely that the fourth child and the fifth child made the noise. Come on, let's go take a look!"
After He Yunxi finished speaking, he got on his horse. Lu Yan jumped up behind and said to her, "Let's go together."
He Yunxi nodded: "Okay."
"Master Luo, let's go over and take a look first." Lu Yan said to Luo Zixuan, and clamped his legs on the horse's belly, and the horse started running quickly.
The saddle was not very big, so the two of them sat close to each other, with He Yunxi shrinking in his arms.
Lu Yan hugged He Yunxi's waist, the soft fragrance in his arms made people feel a little distraught.
He Yunxi didn't think much of it when she agreed, but now that the two of them were holding each other like this, she felt unnatural for a moment.
Fortunately, the horses were fast, and they reached the fire place in no time.
When they arrived, some people had already come to put out the fire, but since it was not a residential area, there were not many people. Most of them were people from the surrounding shops who stayed to keep vigil.
At that time, I saw the fire blazing into the sky. When I came over, I found that the fire was almost extinguished.
"Lu Yan, let's go in and take a look."
The two dismounted, tied their horses outside, and hurried into the yard.
The yard was not big, and the burning areas were concentrated in one room. He Yunxi went in and took a look, but there was no body.
fortunately.
"Yunxi, look." Lu Yan called He Yunxi. He Yunxi went over to take a look and saw a piece of cloth in his hand.
"It's the fabric from Xiao Wu's clothes today. It seems they are really here." He Yunxi said, "I just looked inside and there was no body."
"The weather is not dry now, so it is not so easy for a fire to break out." Lu Yan said, "They probably set the fire. They may have hidden it now. Let's look around to see if we can find anyone."
"Um."
The two of them left the yard and searched along the street, calling their names. When they passed by the entrance of an alley, they suddenly heard the voice of "Sister-in-law."
"No. 4? No. 5?" There was no light, so He Yunxi tried to light a torch and walked inside.
"Sister-in-law! It's really you!" Lu Qi's small body rushed out and plunged into He Yunxi's arms.
He Yunxi hugged Lu Qi and saw that he was not injured, and asked, "Where is your fourth brother?"
"Fourth brother is asleep." Lu Qi said.
"Fell asleep?"
"Well, he fell asleep when we got here." Lu Qi said, "He accidentally inhaled the drug in my bag."
At this time, Lu Yan heard the noise and came over. The two of them entered the alley and took a look. In a large basket placed at the back door of a house, Lu Yu huddled up and really fell asleep.
He Yunxi took out a small bottle from his purse, put it under Lu Yu's nose and shook it, and Lu Yu suddenly woke up.
Seeing Lu Yan and He Yunxi, Lu Yu softly shouted: "Brother, sister-in-law."
"You just took the antidote and you don't have much strength yet. You'll be fine in a while." He Yunxi said, "How are you doing now? Are you injured anywhere?"
"No. I just haven't eaten yet and I'm so hungry." Lu Qi said, touching his stomach.
"We will take you back and make you some food." He Yunxi said.
"Sister-in-law, have you found Third Sister and Xiaoqi?" Lu Yu asked.
"Found them. They are waiting for you at Yong'an Hall now." He Yunxi touched his head and picked up Lu Qi, "Let's go back."
When they came out of the alley, they happened to meet Luo Zixuan and the others. Luo Zixuan saw the child they were holding and said, "We really found it. How is the situation over there?"
"The fire should have been extinguished. It only burned one house and did not affect nearby houses." Lu Yan responded.
Luo Zixuan nodded slightly and asked again: "The fire..."
"We set it on fire," Lu Yu said, "but we looked at it and found that the house was far away from other places, so it shouldn't affect others, so we set it on fire."
Luo Zixuan told Chang Yue to take a few people to see the situation there, and said to Lu Yan and He Yunxi: "If it is convenient, can you let me ask about the situation at that time?"
"Okay, okay. But both children are hungry."
"Let's go to the county government office to eat. I'm just in time to ask about the situation."
"OK."
Lu Yan went back and brought the horse over, and asked He Yunxi to sit on it with the two little guys, while he walked beside him holding the reins.
After arriving at the county government office, Luo Zixuan first asked people to prepare food. After they finished eating, Luo Zixuan asked: "How did you escape?"
