Chapter 22

"You said he used the Jue Ming Palm?"

Lu Wanfeng nodded furiously: "I almost hit me, but fortunately I was smart and escaped."

Qin Chuhan frowned and formed the word "Chuan", "Don't act alone in the future, at least let me know in advance."

"Well, not in the future." Lu Wanfeng smiled and agreed, thinking that he was worried about himself, not bad.

"He will definitely go out to hide, let's talk to Master Jichen first, as soon as possible."

I came back late from the south hall, and it took a lot of time to get out of my soul. When the two went to knock on the door of the adjacent room, it was already daylight, and the sound of knocking wooden fish inside had never been heard, and it seemed that they hadn't slept all night.

Qin Chuhan knocked on the door: "Master Jichen, are you awake?"

The sound of the wooden fish inside stopped, and soon the door opened, and Ji Chen came out, saying: "I haven't fallen asleep," he asked instead, "Mr. Feng, I wonder if there was something good last night?"

Lu Wanfeng was a little surprised, Zhuqing came back early, they lived in one room, didn't they tell anything.Looking in from afar, Zhuqing was lying on the bed and was sleeping soundly. He felt strange and didn't show it. He told what he saw, ignoring the things that monks couldn't hear. He replied: "I can already confirm that The person is Jiyuan, but there was an accident on the way, and he found out, maybe he has escaped now."

He didn't mention the grievances that seemed to exist between Suxi and Meng Weizhen. The grievances and grievances in the rivers and lakes are right and wrong, and no one knows clearly. As long as the innocent are not harmed, it is only natural to kill people and pay debts. He has no plans to intervene in other people's affairs for the time being. .

"No problem, at least we have traces, so we don't need to search blindly anymore," Jichen said gratefully, "Mr. Feng's great kindness, Zhaohua Temple will definitely be remembered in my heart, if you need help in the future, don't be cautious, Zhaohua can help. help."

Lu Wanfeng was polite and didn't take it to heart, thinking that it was over and it was time to leave, counting the time when Meng Weizhen sent a distress letter to the Lu family, the Lu family would arrive almost today and tomorrow, time was tight.

They said goodbye to Ji Chen, and because Zhuqing hadn't risen yet, they didn't bother them, and left the inn with their bags on their backs.

At this time, Jizhou City has gradually woken up in the morning light, and shops and stores have opened one after another. The noise of the market fluctuates from time to time, and a new day has begun.

But when they were stopped by the Meng family for questioning, they realized that it was not the noise of the market, but the noise of the Meng family looking for their young lady with great fanfare.

"Have you seen the whereabouts of my young lady?" The Meng family servant took a portrait and asked them.

The beauty in this portrait has a beautiful face, an oval face, and almond eyes. It is Meng Mei.Lu Wanfeng finally knew what Miss Meng's family looked like, and replied truthfully, "I met you a few days ago." He was referring to the day Meng Mei fell into the water.

The servant of the Meng family took the portrait and said: "My lady disappeared last night. The Meng family offered a huge reward. Please pay more attention. If you have any clues, you must tell us."

"Okay, okay, pay attention." Lu Wanfeng nodded, and sent those people away. Thinking of Meng Mei's disappearance last night, her father was not at home but went to the small house, and he couldn't help but sigh for her. , especially seems to have provoked many enemies, at least Suxi is one.

But he is not a saint, the world is entangled with grievances and hatreds, and he himself cannot protect himself, so he silently blessed Miss Beauty, and he and Qin Chuhan left Jizhou City.

But it seems that the sky is not fulfilling people's wishes. If you want to go west, God insists that you go east. Drinking cold water will stop your teeth. Whenever they want to leave Jizhou, they will always be left behind for various reasons. For example, this time, they saw Meng Mei.

To be precise, they saw Meng Mei lying unconscious on a cart and being pulled away. The person pulling the cart was the hunchbacked six-fingered beggar they had seen before.

If he hadn't seen this beggar before, he wouldn't have paid more attention to it. It was a coincidence that at that moment, he saw Meng Mei's face emerging from under the sackcloth while the stone was bumping.

When you don't see it, you can pretend it's nothing to do with yourself, but when you see it, Lu Wanfeng feels that he still can't do nothing, so he rushed over to suppress the beggar, and asked: "I have already noticed that you are sneaky, but I didn't expect you to be bold enough to kidnap Miss Meng's family. What is your intention?"

The beggar had his hands twisted behind his back, and said in pain, "I didn't hurt her!"

Qin Chuhan lifted the sackcloth, and Meng Mei lay there quietly, looking all right, and nodded to Lu Wanfeng.

Lu Wanfeng said, "Where are you taking her?"

The beggar said: "I don't know, I can't stay in Jizhou anyway!"

"Why?"

The beggar shook his head angrily: "Those people are going to hell, we can't let them drag Mei'er down!"

Lu Wanfeng was taken aback, Mei'er?Calling so intimately, he looked back and forth between the two, the beggar and the lady from a wealthy family, no matter how you look at it, they are completely incompatible people.Thinking about it from another angle, this person once infiltrated into Meng’s house and went straight to Meng Mei’s courtyard. His familiarity with the layout of Meng’s house shows that this kind of infiltration operation was definitely more than once or twice, so there is no doubt that there is a connection between the two. possible.

He changed his mind and asked: "Do you know that Meng Mei never recovered after falling into the water, and you will only harm her by taking her away like this?"

"If you stay at Meng's house, you will be killed by that old man Meng Weizhen instead!" The beggar looked at Meng Mei bewilderedly, and his ugly features squeezed out a weird smile, "I will take good care of her and never let her suffer any more." Wronged."

"Then tell me, is something big going to happen in Jizhou?"

The beggar's face changed color, and he said bluntly, "I don't know!"

Lu Wanfeng felt that this person was already ugly, and seemed to have some psychological problems, which gave him a bad feeling. At least Meng Weizhen felt sorry for his daughter no matter how bad he was. On the other hand, this beggar didn't want to be able to take good care of Meng Mei at all. .

After discussing with Qin Chuhan, they decided to take him back to the Meng family.

The eldest lady of the Meng family who was looking for in the whole city was found, Mrs. Meng Wu Qing stumbled out to pick up her daughter, happy and frightened, "Mei'er, you are back, I'm worried about dead mother..."

Meng Weizhen also rushed over immediately, hugged his daughter who was still in a coma, and turned around to see Qin Chuhan he knew and a young man who didn't know him. He guessed that this was the lifesaver when his daughter fell into the water, but he was a little surprised. He is such a handsome son-in-law.

He bowed his hands and thanked: "The benefactor saved my daughter twice, Meng Weizhen is very grateful!"

After that night in the South Pavilion, Lu Wanfeng hated this person to the extreme, but he also knew that many things should not be put on the table, a hypocrite is nothing more than that.He tried not to show his emotions, pushed the beggar out, and said: "Patriarch Meng, this is the villain who kidnapped Ling Ai, and I will leave it to you."

Meng Weizhen saw that he was actually a lowly beggar, with a hint of evil in his eyes, and said angrily: "Come here, lock this person up and watch! I want to ask him why he took Mei'er away!" After finishing speaking , recruited two servants.

The beggar struggled desperately: "Old man! You will die! It will only make the people around you suffer the same fate as you! But Meier is innocent! Let me go! I will take her away!"

No one paid any attention to him, he was directly dragged down by the servants.

Looking at this scene, Lu Wanfeng suddenly felt that he shouldn't have brought the beggar back, and that Meng Weizhen didn't look like a good guy either.

Declining Meng Weizhen's gift and invitation, they turned to leave, but several servants dressed as Meng's family hurried back from outside, out of breath, "Master, Yanqinghe...Yanqinghe..."

Butler Meng Hai supported the person who was speaking, and said, "Calm your breath first before we talk!"

The man ran too fast and couldn't slow down for a while, and some who recovered quickly managed to speak clearly: "An accident happened to Yanqing River! There are many, many corpses!"

Qin Chuhan stopped on the spot and listened to their conversation.

"What corpse? How did you find it?"

"The little one passed by the river this morning when he was looking for the eldest lady, and happened to see corpses floating up one after another on the river surface. They were all beggars dressed up!"

"No one picked up the body?"

"I can't finish it! There are too many to count!"
