Chapter 48 There is no way to ask for help

"The little one's name is Xiao Liuzi. He usually begged in the east of the city. When he was sleeping on the street last night, he saw two people sneaking behind the prince the ninth elder asked us to find and pulled him into an alley."

Shan Baoqian's hand on the table tightened violently, and his face turned blue, "Then what?"

"Then..." The little beggar grabbed his messy head with his dirty hand, looked at Hong Jiu, who only cared about eating and drinking, and carefully looked at Shan Baoqian, who didn't look good. "Then... Then they stunned the young man and put it in a sack and transported it away."

"Do you know where they have gone?" Shan Baoqian saw that he looked at the wine and vegetables on the table and swallowed his saliva. He must have been very hungry, so he sent Feicui again and ordered several dishes and a bucket of fragrant white rice to the shopkeeper and put them in front of him. "Think about it. I know you are hungry. After that, I will treat you to this table."

"Really...really?" The little beggar grew up all the way, eating all the bad rice and looking at the white eyes of the four people. When did he see someone pleasantly invite him to such a rich meal? His eyes lit up. Looking at the fragrant food, his hands trembled.

"Of course it's true." Shan Baoqian clapped the palm of his hand with the folding fan left by Shan Xiaowu and nodded, "As long as you make what you see clearly."

"I said, I said, the little one must make it clear." Xiao Liuzi didn't even leave the fragrant white rice, and said all the next things as if pouring beans. "Because there have been many people abducted by traffickers in this city, I thought the behavior of these two people was strange at that time. I thought it should be the abductor, so I secretly followed them. I want to see if I can find out where they hide so that I can give some rewards to the government.

Shan Baoqian stared at him like a torch, "What happened later? Why didn't you report to the government office?"

"Later, the two people carried the people into the carriage and went out of the city. I couldn't run fast and couldn't keep up with them. I was hungry and had no strength, so... so I gave up."

Xiao Liuzi knelt on the ground and looked at Shan Baoqian, who seemed to be surrounded by flames, with the corners of his eyes. At this time, he didn't dare to hit the idea of that table of food at all. He just wanted to retreat quickly. This man was too horrible. Just one look made his back cold and he couldn't stand still.

"Do you remember the appearance and figure of those two people?"

"This...let me think about it," Xiao Liuzi habitually scratched his messy hair. "Because I'm behind them, I can't see what they look like, but I remember those two people, one is very thin and tall, and the other is much shorter, all wearing khaki clothes." Xiao Liuzi said and stretched out his two hands to make a comparison.

"Do you remember which direction they went from? What scenery is more conspicuous along the way? The eyebrows gathered together to form the Sichuan character. Shan Baoqian's narrow phoenix eyes slightly raised up, and the expression on his face was not angry and powerful.

"I... It was very dark at that time, and the little one followed them out of the city. Seeing that he couldn't catch up with them, he didn't follow him anymore," Xiao Liuzi tried his best to recall everything in his mind last night. "But the little one can be sure that the road they took should be to the nearest Yueluo City. The little one once lived there. So I still have a little impression of that road."

"Is it Yueluo City..."

"Second young master, in this case, let's go there quickly. If it's late and they transport the young lady to another place, it will be troublesome." Jadeite was more anxious than Shan Baoqian. Hearing Xiao Liuzi finish speaking, he couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly to Yueluo City immediately.

Shan Baoqian thought for a while, motioned Feicui to calm down, and let Xiao Liuzi take the food to eat by himself. On the same time, he poured wine bowls for himself and Hong Jiu, and asked calmly, "Brother Hong, does anyone know how far Luocheng is from Jinling this month?"

Hong Jiu was busy eating and drinking. Hearing this, he stared and stunned. Then he pointed to the little beggar who was also working hard next to him. The meaning was quite obvious - ask him.

Xiao Liuzi was standing on the chair and devouring without image, because his mouth was full of food, and his dark cheeks on both sides were swollen.

Originally, he was about to pick up the farthest chicken leg, but when he looked up, he saw that the men and women at the next table, several people looked at him affectionately. At that moment, his heart twitched and he was almost choked to death by a mouthful of food.

"Quickly, how long will it take from here to Yueluo City?" Seeing that he stopped eating, Feicui looked at Shan Baoqian and opened his mouth first when he saw that he did not object.

So he was going to ask this, but he thought he was going to kick him out and beat him.

Xiao Liuzi breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and beat his chest, suddenly pressed down the food in his throat, and poured the boss with a mouthful of tea. Then he gasped and said, "Walking, walking probably... hiccup... It will take about two and a half days. If you ride a horse, the small one will be... hiccup, I don't know."

"It only takes two and a half days to walk..." Shan Baoqian tapped the table with a fan and lowered his eyes and muttered, "In this case, if you ride a horse, it can shorten the time by about half. No, if you travel day and night, it should be faster."

"Don't be late, second young master, let's go now. I'll find the horse first."

Feicui was more anxious than Shan Baoqian. Knowing that riding a horse could shorten the distance, he told him and rushed out of the inn - Shan Baoqian did not stop her this time.

"Thank you very much, Brother Hong this time." Raising the wine bowl, Shan Baoqian stood up and said, "Come on, I'd like to give Brother Hong a drink. Thank you, Brother Hong for your kind help."

"Why are you polite to my brother? Come on, drink." Hong Jiu smiled and simply raised the wine bowl. "I wish you find a girl as soon as possible."

"Thank you very much."

The shallow wine bowls collided with each other, and the mellow wine spilled out of it and dripped on the table. The two looked at each other and smiled, and then drank all the wine in the glass.

When Jadeite found two fast horses, Hong Jiu also carried his tightly wrapped strange weapon again and jumped on the horse pulled over by several little beggars.

"Brother Hong is leaving?" Shan Baoqian looked up at him with some doubts.

Hong Jiu grabbed his hair and said calmly, "No, life is too boring. I'm going to follow you to find someone for my brother."

Shan Bao was puzzled. When would this guy who hates running out the most so kindly walk such a long way with them to save people? Isn't this obvious?

"Today, I'm lucky to have Brother Hong's help. I'm very grateful. How dare I bother Brother Hong to find my sister with me?"

He hugged his fist elegantly, and Shan Baoqian had something to say, and he refused very gently.

It's just that some people don't understand, "Oh, you're welcome. You and my brother, you should try your best to help me."

The corners of Shan Baoqian's mouth twitched, "I really don't bother Brother Hong..."

"Don't do this. What's more, why not follow you, eat and drink?" Hong Jiu smiled and sat steadily with the reins pulled, without any embarrassment on his face.

At this moment, Shan Bao didn't stop twitching the corners of his mouth, and even the corners of his eyes twitched, which distorted a handsome face. It turned out that this guy was such a good idea!

This time, I'm afraid that he can't escape and is going to bleed - very good, very good, he will write down all the money he spend these days to Yuanbaomei's account. Anyway, it's all to calm the money caused by her. It's the most normal thing to count it on her, and it's not all said. Don't be afraid of debt-- From the past to the present, the money owed to him is almost astronomical, and it doesn't matter if it's a little more.

Although he thought so in his heart, when he saw Hong Jiuyi walking in the front and leisurely holding the wine jar and pouring wine, he couldn't help but sigh. He didn't know whether it was right or wrong for him to ask the greedy beggar to come over in order to save time blindly searching.

It doesn't matter. Anyway, when you get to Yueluo City, it's still very useful to have him. Let's go one step at a time.

The three people left the room and hurried out of the city. The next day, just after noon, the carriage taken by Shan Xiaowu also passed the gate of Jinling City. Liu Laohan drove the car and followed Shan Xiaowu's instructions and went straight to the inn where she had lived with Shan Baoqian and Feicui.

Therefore, the brother and sister who were supposed to meet staggered because of the different time relationship, and they went their own way for a long time and could not see each other.

He paid the car to Mr. Liu. Shan Xiaowu entered the inn. The first thing he did was to go upstairs, but he was stopped by the shopkeeper.

"Second brother, why don't you let me go up? I'll live in Room No. 2 of Tianzi." Shan Xiaowu thought that Shan Baoqian was still there. He was stopped by the shopkeeper and couldn't go up. He could only circle his hands and act as a loudspeaker and shouted upstairs, "Second brother, second brother, jadeite, I'm back."

"Oh, prince, don't do this. It will disturb the guests in our store." Shan Xiaowu was wearing men's clothing. The shopkeeper didn't recognize her. He just saw her running upstairs for fear that she would disturb the guests, so he had to stretch out his arm and stop her. "If the prince is looking for someone, let me inform you."

"In this way..."

Shan Xiaowu bit her lower lip and remembered that she was still dressed in men's clothes, so it wouldn't embarras him. Anyway, as long as the second brother and Feicui came, she didn't have to fight to go upstairs.

"Then I'll wait downstairs. Please help me go to Tianzi Room 1 on the left, find the handsome young man who lives in it, and say that he has relatives to find it."

"Room No. 1 of Tianzi, right?" Xiao Er thought for a moment and quickly stretched out his hand to block Shan Xiaowu, who was about to go downstairs. "Son, the one who just lived in Tianzi Room No. 1 today is a very beautiful girl, and there is no handsome brother you said."

"I just lived in today?" Something was wrong with Shan Xiaowu. Something flashed in her mind, which made her involuntarily afraid. She reflexively grasped the shopkeeper's arm tightly and almost broke his arm with great force. "What about the person who lived in it? There is also Tianzi Room No. 2, inside... Isn't there a girl in it? The face is round and cute.

"Son, are you talking about the people who used to live there? It was indeed a handsome young man and a round-faced little girl. There seemed to be another girl before. "It was not easy to pull back. The shopkeeper held his chin and tilted his head to think about it. "But later, it seemed that something happened to one of the girls. The young man and the round-faced girl were very anxious. Even last night I checked out at night and left.

Did you leave all night?

"So... second brother, do you know where they went?"

The shopkeeper shook his head, "I don't know. When they left, they brought a chivalrous man who seemed to be very good at eating."

When Shan Xiaowu heard the words, he turned black in front of him and almost rolled down the stairs.

How could it be like this? She hasn't come back yet. Why did the second brother and Feicui leave? Also, who is that Jianghu chivalrous man? It's not a liar, is it? Is it a group of ducks?

When they left like this, that is to say, the money and luggage are gone? In this case, what will she do next?

The money of pawn clothes has been spent for a long time. If you want to stay in a store now, I'm afraid you can't afford it.

"No, there must be a way, there must be another way..."

He muttered to himself, and Shan Xiaowu walked down the stairs in a daze, but when he stepped down the last ladder, he suddenly remembered something, Tianzi No. 2 Room... Tianzi No. 2 Room, not broken!

"Little brother!" Walking two steps quickly to catch up with Xiao Er in the store, Shan Xiaowu grabbed him eagerly, "Second Brother, the person in Room 2 of Tianzi on the left has left. What about the one on the right? Has the one on the right also been replaced?

The shopkeeper scratched his temples and looked very embarrassed. "The guests in Tianzi Room No. 2 on the right haven't left yet, but I haven't seen him appear for two days in a row, and I haven't seen the other two horrible people. I think they should have something to leave."

The last glimmer of hope was also broken, and Shan Xiaowu's face collapsed in an instant.
