Xiao Jin and Xue Haitang just found a place in the corner of the lobby, and he didn't let Xiaodao take them to the wing.In the quiet wing, Xiao Jin thought it would be more interesting to stay alone with Wen Yelan.

Xue Haitang already felt very happy to be able to enter the Yunshui Renjian. Although she felt a little regretful that she couldn't go upstairs to the wing, she didn't say anything.However, the way she looked at Xiao Jin really changed, the dislike that she would show from time to time before had disappeared, and Xiao Jin had obviously become a favorite in her eyes now.

Xiao Jin took a sip of his tea, feeling a little disappointed with Xue Haitang's staring eyes.Xue Haitang has the secret, but he doesn't have the scheming to get on the stage.Sure enough, it was his ruthless young master who won his heart even more. Thinking of someone, Xiao Jin's eyes curved, and the tenderness in his eyes seemed to be able to turn solid ice into a pool of warm water.

Xue Haitang met his gaze, her cheeks blushed, Xiao Qier really still liked her.

Xiao Jin poured her a cup of tea, smiled honestly and pushed a piece of crispy chicken near him to Xue Haitang, and asked curiously and flatteringly: "In the past, everyone in the village still okay?"

Xue Haitang looked at the fried golden crispy chicken and licked his lips, but he still pretended to be reserved and just picked up a small piece and took a light bite.

"After Dad died, you left. Lin Kuan and Qin Wei also left our Guangmao Village. In the past two years, some people said that they worked as policemen in the capital, but I don't know if it is true. I won’t come back to help those of us who are still in the village even after paying a lot of money.” Xue Haitang fell silent, probably because she realized that it was not good for her to speak out what was in her heart, she took out a handkerchief and wiped it. At the corner of his mouth, he blushed and continued to change the subject, "everything in the village was fine, but for some reason two years ago, there was a sudden drought, and all of our fields were hit by seedlings. The crops disappeared like this, and the drought lasted for more than three months, and everyone in the village suffered unspeakably. Some young people couldn't bear it, so they left the village to seek food." The young people who had left came back recently and told them that Xiao Jin had married the young master of the capital, and that Lin Kuan and Qin Wei had become the policemen.Xue Haitang also heard this from them, and his mind became active that night. Seeing that the people who returned to the village made a lot of money and came back to marry wives and build big houses, Xue Haitang couldn't sit still. Thinking of the rich Xiao Jin, Lin Kuan and the others, she resolutely left the village and came to the capital.There were many hardships along the way, but now seeing Xiao Jin, Xue Haitang only felt that the trip was worth it!

Xiao Jin was not in the mood to listen carefully to what she had to say, but paid special attention to the three words "Guangmao Village" that Xue Haitang said.

After all, Xiao Jin is not Xiao Qier, and of course he doesn't know where Xiao Qier stayed before.He also couldn't ask others, and he couldn't ask Wen Yelan's people to help with the investigation. Xue Haitang's arrival now helped him a lot and saved him a lot of trouble.

Xue Haitang couldn't bear the delicacy he had just tasted, and put several pieces of chicken into his own bowl. When he got excited about eating, he didn't care about his own image, and moved his hands from time to time, while eating, he said: "By the way, A few days before I left, a group of vicious people came to the village. As soon as they came, they forced all of us to gather in one place, and then searched around our house. At that time, we thought they were bandits. I was scared to death. But they didn't kill us, they just ransacked the village inside and out. But they didn't look for your abandoned house, maybe it was Dad's house built on the mountainside, they Probably didn't notice."

Xue Haitang spoke a little dry, poured a cup of tea self-consciously, raised his head and drank it down, and then continued the topic just now, "They seem to have found nothing, and then it seems that some kind of adult came, and then this group of people also I don't know what I was muttering, but I stayed in the village for two days before leaving. I saw that these people don't look like bandits, but rather..." Xue Haitang said here, paused, glanced left and right, seeing no one Noticing their side, he lowered his head and whispered to Xiao Jin, "Officers and soldiers."

officers and soldiers?

Xiao Jin tapped lightly with his fingers on his thigh.

Seeing Xiao Jin, Xue Haitang seemed a little disbelieving, and said confidently in a voice that only two people could hear: "Xiao Qi... Brother Xiao, don't believe me, I, Xue Haitang, still have some vision. Although those people are dressed roughly Clothed in linen and rough in behavior, but their demeanor can't deceive anyone, and I secretly heard someone call the grown-up who came later, 'General'!"

Xiao Jin raised his eyebrows, put some of the dishes on the table into Xue Haitang's bowl, and said with a smirk: "Maybe you heard wrong, our village can still come to the general? As long as everyone is fine, eat quickly, vegetables It's going to be cold."

Xue Haitang thought about what Xiao Jin said, and felt that it made sense.How could the general find such a remote village like them, and the people in their village would have sold it if there was anything valuable, so they wouldn't be so poor as they are now.Xue Haitang didn't think too much, just lowered his head and concentrated on eating the food on the table.

Xiao Jin saw that after talking about Xue Haitang, he began to meditate alone.

General?officers and soldiers?Looking for something?

If what Xue Haitang said is true, Xiao Jin can only think of one person through these, and that is Southern General Xie Ziliao.And Xie Ziliao went to Guangmao Village, no matter how you look at it, it has something to do with Xiao Qier.

Earlier, when Sister Xin said that there was something on Xiao Qier that Xie Ziliao wanted very much, Xiao Jin touched his chin and began to think about it.After he came here, he didn't find anything on Xiao Qier's body. He could be said to be poor at that time, and the most valuable thing was his ragged clothes.So, is the thing Xie Ziliao is looking for hidden somewhere by Xiao Qier?

And thinking about it this way, the most likely place where Xiao Qier can hide things is really Guangmao Village.Xue Haitang just said that because the house of the father who adopted Xiao Qier was halfway up the mountain, in a remote location, everyone was petrified at the time, and Xie Ziliao probably didn't dare to look for things by saying Xiao Jin's name in a big way , so I just missed the house that Xiao Qier lived in before.

Xiao Jin tapped his fingers twice slowly.According to Xiao Jin's conjecture, Xie Ziliao should not give up so quickly, and he might go to Guangmao Village again in a short time. If this is the case, then this time he might really find Xiao Qier halfway up the mountain house.Xiao Jin felt that it was necessary for him to go back to this so-called "Guangmao Village" in person. About Xiao Qi'er's life experience, he couldn't understand it all day long, and he couldn't relax his personal safety all day long.

After Xiao Jin coaxed Xue Haitang away with clever words, he didn't leave Yunshui Renjian, but stayed alone in the wing room where he and Young Master Wen had been together yesterday.He sat by the window, sipped cup after cup of tea, and had some rough plans in his mind on how to return to Guangmao Village cautiously and unnoticed.

After Xiao Jin gradually figured out the plan in his heart, he was attracted by the noisy voice downstairs.

Xiao Jin leaned against the window and looked around with interest. Both sides of the road downstairs were crowded with people, and two teams of officers and soldiers were maintaining order at the scene.There was enough space in the middle of the road for a carriage to pass by, and it seemed to be welcoming someone.Xiao Jin glanced at the bustling crowd, his eyes wandered, and he saw an unexpected person at the entrance of the alley opposite.

"Young master?"

Wen Yelan and Mei Lan stood at the entrance of the alley, because the crowd was so strong, it was hard to find them hidden in the shadows.And Xiao Jin happened to be on the second floor of Yunshui Renjian, and Yunshui Renjian happened to be on the opposite side of the alley, but Xiao Jin really got Wen Yelan's figure completely in his eyes.

Xiao Jin frowned, looking at the increasingly noisy and crowded scene downstairs, he felt a little puzzled.What on earth happened?Even Wen Yelan came out.

Xiao Jin looked around carefully again, and saw a few familiar big men not far from Wen Yelan.These big guys are Qian Xiaoping's subordinates, and they were among the people who took them back to Beijing before.It seems that they were called by Qian Xiaoping to protect Wen Yelan.

After a while, the crowd suddenly became more noisy and surging.

Xiao Jin squinted his eyes, and his eyes fell on the slowly approaching vehicle at the end of the crowd.

A prison cart was gradually approaching, and the prison cart was surrounded by heavy soldiers and horses. When the people around saw the prison cart appearing, they cursed and smashed all the withered vegetables and rotten eggs into the prison cart. people.When Xiao Jin listened carefully, he could still hear people swearing at him like "low work", "dirty", "one life for one life".

The prison car finally drove under Xiao Jin's nose, and Xiao Jin finally saw clearly the protagonist in the prison car that made everyone angry.It turned out to be Wen Ziling?

Wen Ziling half-lyed in the car with a listless look, his eyes were distracted, his fine clothes were a little messy, and his hands and feet were all chained.He stared at the front with sleepy eyes, it seemed that he was not sober.

Next to Wen Ziling's carriage was a young man who looked like a servant. His hands and feet were also chained, and he staggered and walked slowly forward with the prison cart under the pressure of the officers and soldiers around him.

Xiaodao just knocked on the door and came in. Seeing Xiao Jin looking at Wen Ziling under the window, he also came up and explained, "Master Xiao, I heard that Wen Ziling killed someone."

"Murder?" Xiao Jin was slightly surprised.

"It seems that the youngest daughter of the Liao family was raped and killed. The officers and soldiers went to Wen's house but failed to catch her, and later caught her in the wine and painting workshop. Wen Ziling didn't seem to know that he had killed someone, and even went to the brothel to find her. The girl is lingering..."

Xiao Jin smiled, and his eyes fell on Wen Ziling again. I'm afraid Wen Ziling is still drunk.
