When Cangjiu came back, he found that all the guards in the courtyard were lying on the ground in disorder. The pungent smell of alcohol permeated the entire courtyard. The door of the house was open, and the people inside had disappeared. ! Get up for me!"
Everyone opened their eyes in a daze, and when they saw Cangjiu, they immediately got up from the ground, saluted, and stood there tremblingly.
Ruan Shan was one of Cangjiu's most powerful guards. He glanced at the room with the door open and realized that something had happened to the three of them, and his face turned pale with fright.
Cangjiu's cold eyes swept over the heads of everyone, and wanted to sweep their faces, but each one was like a quail in the cold wind, wishing to stick their heads into their crotches, who could see their faces
"You can't even look down on a woman and two children, what's the use of you!"
The heads of the crowd lowered even lower.
Cangjiu took a few steps and looked at the three wine jars lying on the ground. There was a faint smell of sweat medicine in the air. He probably understood what was going on, but he still couldn't help but get angry with this group of people. It's really not a glorious thing for a group of old men to be tricked by a woman.
The guards all felt the coercion from Cangjiu, they didn't dare to show their breath, and kept silent.
Cangjiu said: "What are you still doing? Hurry up and arrest him!"
Everyone ran out in a swarm!
Cangjiu took out a whistle from his wide sleeve, and blew three times softly in the direction of the sky, and then a falcon flew from the sky with a long roar, circled around his head, and he made a gesture , the falcon flew towards the depths of the night with sharp eyes.
At the same time, Ji Mingxiu and others also came out to look for Jing Yun.
Huo Shigong, carrying a long sword, and Zhu'er, who also carried a long sword, went to the north direction one by one; Ji Mingxiu and Yan Fei went to the south direction; Seventeen went east, my lord Go west with Adal and Fu Xueyan's master and servant.
The person who wanted to chase Fu Xueyan back earlier was Mu Qiuyang. Now that Mu Qiuyang has been arrested by Ji Mingxiu, Fu Xueyan is safe. At least he doesn’t have to worry about being caught by some Yeluo people when he goes out. She was pregnant, so Xiuqin couldn't help worrying about her.
"Sect Master Qiao has already said, you don't want to come, you have to come." Xiuqin complained softly.
Fu Xueyan did not speak.
When he learned of the disappearance of Jing Yun and Brother Liu, Ji Mingxiu immediately sealed off the city gate, not to mention the two children, not even a fly could fly out, but the capital of the Daliang Dynasty was too big. In addition to the bustling urban area, there are also desolate mountains and forests, so trying to find two children in such a vast place is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
The leader held Xiaobai in his arms, lowered his head and asked him from time to time: "Did you find Jing Yun? Did you find it?"
Apparently it wasn't found.
Adal said: "They may be in a carriage, and the smell will disappear after getting into the carriage."
The leader twitched his lips: "Why wasn't it the little fat man who was taken away?"
The little fat man is greedy for food and money, and always robs him of things, he always despises the little fat man! How nice Jing Yun is, filial and quiet, Jing Yun was arrested, and he felt pain in his heart. The most important thing is that the little fat man is full of brute force, and he was arrested and kept safe, but his little Jingyun is as weak as a little chicken, and can be crushed to death with one finger...
"Miss, be careful!" When walking into a forest, there was a protruding tree root on the ground. Fu Xueyan didn't look at the road. Xiuqin helped her anxiously, but she was a step late. I fell down!
The leader threw Xiaobai away, and Xiaobai slapped him on the tree with a thud!
The leader stretched out his hand and clasped Fu Xueyan's arm, pulled her up vigorously, and Fu Xueyan slammed into his arms. He wrapped his arms around her waist in time, and accidentally touched her stomach with his big palm.
Huh
Why does something seem wrong
He touched and touched again.
Fu Xueyan took his hand away and walked out from his embrace. The dark night covered her complexion, only her slender eyelashes trembled slightly, as if she could see a trace of inner unrest.
The leader stepped forward and looked directly at her face: "Hey, I touched your stomach just now, why doesn't it feel right?"
"Dengtuzi!" Fu Xueyan said expressionlessly.
The leader snorted and said, "I've slept through it, what's wrong with touching it?"
Fu Xueyan moved her fingers, ignored him, stepped over the tree roots, and walked forward.
"Hey!" The leader chased after her, looked at her perfect side face and said, "Your belly is hard and a little big, you won't... you have some disease?"
Fu Xueyan gave him a cold look.
He touched his chin resentfully: "I'm not sick, then let me touch it again."
As he said, he stretched out his hand towards Fu Xueyan's stomach.
Fu Xueyan clasped his wrist, and said mercilessly: "If you dare to touch me again, I will break your hand!"
The leader said recklessly: "Then you are the one who is touching me now, and you are holding on to me!"
Fu Xueyan coldly shook off his hand.
The leader suddenly flashed to Xiuqin's side, and touched Xiuqin's stomach with a salty pig's hand, and Xiuqin screamed: "What are you doing?!"
The leader withdrew his hand, frowned his handsome brows, and muttered in confusion: "Your belly is as soft and flat as Siniang's. Why does the dominatrix seem to have something growing in her belly?"
Xiuqin secretly scolded you idiot! Didn't it grow something? Grow up your son!
The leader whispered to his subordinates: "Adal, there is something growing in the hag's stomach."
The corner of A'dal's mouth couldn't help twitching: "That's..."
Before he finished speaking, Fu Xueyan looked at him with cold eyes, and A'dal quickly shut up.
It is not good to offend the leader, but it is even worse to offend the leader's wife. After all, it is not so easy to get into the position of Guardian Zuo, and it would be a pity to lose it.
Several people continued to move forward in the dark night, when suddenly Fu Xueyan's golden eagle flew over and landed on a branch beside it with a feather in its mouth.
The leader looked at the golden eagle strangely. The golden eagle opened its big round eyes and looked at Xiao Bai who was stuck on the tree. It opened its beak and swallowed Xiao Bai in one gulp!
Everyone's complexion changed, Jin Diao swallowed, suddenly his throat rolled, he opened his beak, and spit out Xiaobai!
Xiaobai's body was sticky, he stuck out his tongue in disgust, and jumped into the puddle beside him with a bang!
Fu Xueyan picked up the feathers carried by the golden eagle, looked at the torch held by A'dal, and said: "It's Cangjiu's falcon, it seems that he is also looking for something."
A flash of inspiration flashed in the leader's mind: "Could it be that Jing Yun and the others escaped?"
Fu Xueyan nodded: "It's possible, he won't dispatch falcons easily, unless he is looking for very important people and things."
The leader was overjoyed and said: "If Jing Yun escapes, he will definitely make marks along the way. We only need to find the mark left by Jing Yun, and we can follow the clues to bring him home! Adal! Find the mark!"
Adal didn't move.
"Why don't you go?" the leader asked.
Adal said: "I don't know what young master Jing Yun's mark looks like."
Lord leader: "..."
He doesn't know either.
…
Ji Mingxiu and Yan Feijue headed south along the place where Jing Yun and Brother Liu's scent disappeared, passed through the streets of the busy city, passed through the densely populated houses, and embarked on an ancient road that was becoming less and less populated. At the beginning, Gu Dao could occasionally bump into a few people passing by, but gradually, only they and a few subordinates of the Shaxue League were left.
Yan Feijue went to the front to explore the way, then turned back and said: "Further ahead, you will enter the mine. That mine has been abandoned for a long time, and there should be no people living there."
Ji Ming corrected his complexion and said, "Go look for it."
Yan Feijue nodded, and flew into the mine with lightness kung fu. Ji Mingxiu and the men of the Shaxue League continued to search along the way. About a quarter of an hour later, Yan Feijue flew back sweating profusely, with an excited expression: "Found it! There! There are traces of people living there, but this place is empty, I don’t know where they all went!”
Ji Mingxiu pondered for a while, then walked to the small courtyard behind the mine.
The yard was a bit messy, the wine jars fell all over the floor, and the pungent smell of alcohol was blown to the face by the night wind, and there was also a faint smell of Mongolian sweat medicine mixed in, Yan Feijue and these killers were all veterans , Don’t dare to say anything else, Menghan Yao still won’t admit his mistake.
On the table in the open air, there were more than a dozen plates of leftovers leftovers, but they were not broken. The stove in the kitchen was hot, and it should be opened after dark. Judging from the bowls and chopsticks, the number of people eating was no less than Fifteen, but what was it that made this group of people mobilize
Ji Mingxiu entered the room. It looked like a woman lived in this room. There were exquisite flower arrangements on the table, which were incompatible with the rough courtyard. Ji Mingxiu picked up the pillow on the bed and saw a book. From the outside, there is nothing special about it, but it has the seal of Nanshan Academy on it.
Opening the book, a piece of orange peel fell off. Ji Mingxiu picked up the orange peel, looked at the seal on the book, and immediately made a judgment: "Jing Yun and the others have been here, but they escaped. They're gone."
Yan Feijue was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled pleasantly: "As expected of Jing Yun, he escaped from under the noses of so many Yeluo people! Let's go find them too! Don't tell those Yeluo people to come first!" !"
…
When Jing Yun stuck the last piece of orange peel on a twig by the side of the road, the three of them were too tired to walk. Not far away was a small, dark earthen hut. This kind of earthen hut had been seen several times on the way to escape. This one should have been temporarily built for the convenience of forest guards and mining. After the miners left, the houses were all abandoned.
Xun Lan wiped the sweat from her forehead: "Let's go in and rest for a while, we've traveled far enough, rest for one night, and leave tomorrow morning."
Brother Liu was too tired to move, so he threw himself into Xun Lan's arms.
Xun Lan half-carried him into the house.
Jing Yun also followed in.
The small earthen house is not big, with a main room, a bedroom, a chicken coop and a semi-outdoor kitchen connected to the backyard. There is no furniture left in the house, but there are still some worn-out mattresses and hay. Xun Lan and Brother Liu are both Being spoiled and spoiled, looking at such a dilapidated residence, she was at a loss for a while.
Jing Yun lived in a place that was even more dilapidated than a small earthen house for two years. He used to not even have a bed and could only sleep on the ground covered with hay, so he didn't have much dislike for such a place, and it was no big deal.
He opened the dusty cabinet, took out a damp old quilt, and threw it on the dry grass: "Lay."
Xun Lan glanced at Jing Yun lightly. At this time, Jing Yun really didn't look like a child. His deep eyes, cold aura, and even the undeniable pressure between his brows all resembled Ji Mingxiu.
"Make the bed." Jing Yun emphasized every word.
"I'll make the bed!" Brother Liu jumped onto the bed, waving his little paws to shake a ball of damp quilt, Xun Lan carried Brother Liu down and made the bed.
It's just that the musty smell on the quilt was too strong, she couldn't help but frowned in disgust.
Jing Yun jumped onto the bed without saying a word, hugged the book bag tightly, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Brother Liu saw that Jing Yun had fallen asleep, so he also climbed up, put his little head next to Jing Yun, yawned, and fell into a deep sleep.
The crescent moon was hidden in the clouds, and the last ray of moonlight could not be seen. The small earthen house was completely dark, and I couldn't see my fingers.
Xun Lan sat quietly in front of the bed, looking at the endless darkness with deep eyes.
I don't know how long time has passed, so long that this room seems to be forgotten by time.
Brother Liu woke up in a jolt, and when he woke up, he found himself in the arms of his mother, who held him and kept running towards the distance. He rubbed his eyes: "Where are we going? Mother?"
Xun Lan panted, "Go home."
"Where's Jing Yun?" Brother Liu asked while yawning.
Xun Lan didn't answer.
Brother Liu blinked his eyes, and suddenly woke up from his sluggish consciousness. He looked around, but he didn't find Jing Yun, and he was about to think about it while thumping his calves.
Xun Lan panted and said, "Don't move! Mother is almost out of strength, if you move again, Mother will not be able to hold you!"
Brother Liu pushed her and said, "I don't want you to hug me! Let me down!"
Xun Lan scolded in a low voice: "Don't make trouble!"
Brother Liu struggled desperately: "You let me down! I want to come down!"
Xun Lan couldn't hold her anymore, she loosened her hand, Brother Liu slipped from her arms, before she could catch her breath, Brother Liu pushed her away, and ran away!
She grabbed his collar and said in a low voice, "Where are you going?"
Brother Liu struggled: "Let go! I'm going to find Jing Yun!"
Xun Lan looked around vigilantly: "Keep your voice down!"
Brother Liu: "I don't!"
Xun Lan was angry and anxious, grabbed him by the collar and said in a low voice, "What are you looking for? It's so late, do you know that running back like this would be very dangerous?"
Brother Liu said stubbornly, "I'm just looking for Jing Yun!"
"You..." Xun Lan held his breath in his chest.
Brother Liu bit her hand, she flinched in pain, Brother Liu took the opportunity to run out.
Xun Lan didn't know when her son became so strong, she almost couldn't catch up with him, she grabbed his arm, pulled him back into her arms, and said sadly: "Why did you become so disobedient? ! You used to be the most obedient to your mother! Look at you now... "
Brother Liu looked at her wronged and angry.
Xun Lan's throat was choked, her eyelashes trembled, she lowered her eyes, stroked his cheek, and said softly: "Mother is for your own good, listen to what mother says, let's leave here."
Brother Liu tightened his fist and said, "If it's sister-in-law, she won't leave me behind!"
Xun Lan's eyes froze.
Unable to tell whether it was sad or angry, Brother Liu's eye circles became red, and his small chest heaved violently: "Sister-in-law will not abandon your child, why did you abandon her child?!"
"..." Xun Lan was so choked that he couldn't speak.
Brother Liu wiped his wet eyes: "I'm so disappointed in you!"
Xun Lan's heart seemed to be cut by a knife, and she looked at her son in fear. He was right in front of her, but suddenly became very far away. She grabbed his thin shoulders and said in a panic and eagerly: "Don't do this, Mother has nothing left, mother only has you left, don't be disappointed in mother, don't look at mother with such eyes... "
Brother Liu looked at her with red eyes: "You don't let me sleep with you, you don't let me eat delicious food, and you leave me to go to other places, and now you have left my best friend... He will be afraid of people there!"
Xun Lan's chest seemed to be pressed by a stone, and she couldn't breathe. She said in a trembling voice: "It's not what you think, listen to mother's explanation..."
Brother Liu said angrily: "I hate you!"
Xun Lan was startled, and looked at his son in disbelief: "What did you say..."
Brother Liu squeezed his small fist, said sadly and angrily: "I said I hate you! I don't want you to be my mother anymore!"
Xun Lan's face suddenly turned pale!
