Immortal sword edge
Chapter 17
The sky had already darkened, and there was a faint noise of silk and bamboo in the front yard, Hua Manlou carefully avoided waves of people who came and went in a hurry under the night.
The white robe was really conspicuous in the dark night. In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, he walked cautiously, not even daring to take a breath.Now he can't make any mistakes, because it's not only about whether he can escape smoothly, but he also bears the safety of another person on his body.
Fortunately, this time was very favorable for him. Most of the people went to the front yard, and very few stayed in the backyard, and the group of vicious men just now disappeared.Hua Manlou frowned, and she didn't look relieved in the slightest. This kind of situation only showed that the person was in a very dangerous situation, and they might have already been caught by them, which made him worry.
But now, all he can do is to escape quickly and find rescuers to save people!
He took a last look at the blurred buildings in the darkness, gritted his teeth, and ran towards the back door at the fastest speed in his short six years.
"Boom!" "Ouch!" The sound of physical collision and miserable cry of pain sounded successively, and the dizzy Hua Manlou threw himself on the opposite person who fell to the ground together, regardless of the severe pain in his body.
The two figures in the dark night were about the same size, wrestling with each other with all four limbs. For some reason, the other party seemed to have the same concerns as him, and did not call out.
His arms were pinched in pain, and his calf was also kicked fiercely. The huge pain made his eyes water, and he didn't need to look to know that there must be a lot of bruises.But he still didn't let go, his small body firmly suppressed the person under him, he had never been so fierce before, he lost all etiquette and upbringing, like a crazy little beast, desperately going straight to the other person flutter.
It's just that although he tried his best and even used his teeth, the other party slowly turned the situation around. He knew that although the other party was just a child like him, his strength was much stronger than him.Seeing that she couldn't suppress him more and more, Hua Manlou was anxious, but didn't know what to do.
Finally, the child under him turned over, knocked Huamanlou to the ground, and then pressed his not-so-light body firmly on top of him, and pinched his fragile neck with two small hands viciously.
The wind was blowing and the clouds were moving, and the moon was shining brightly. The man above had a slightly bent leg, firmly pressed on his knee, and gently brushed away the messy hair with one hand, revealing a white, tender and lovely face.
"The building is full of flowers!" the man exclaimed, his immature voice was full of surprise and joy.
Hua Manlou gasped violently, his heart full of despair just now was replaced by great surprise, his eyes widened, and he exclaimed: "Lu Xiaofeng! You are Lu Xiaofeng!"
The man turned over and sat on the ground, pulled Hua Manlou up, and said excitedly, "It's me! I've been looking for you for a whole day, and I finally found you."
"How do you know I'm here?" he asked in surprise.
Lu Xiaofeng looked smug, "Of course I know, as long as I think about it, there is nothing in this world that I don't know."
Hua Manlou opened his mouth and was about to speak, when he suddenly saw a light coming indistinctly behind the flowers and trees.He hurriedly got up, grabbed Lu Xiaofeng's hand, and quickly rushed into the bushes beside him.
Fortunately, the other party didn't notice them, and Hua Manlou breathed a sigh of relief when the orange lantern gradually moved away until it disappeared.
Lu Xiaofeng sat down on the ground, patted his chest and said, "It's okay, it's okay, if he is found out, he will die."
Hua Manlou wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and said, "You haven't told me how you found this place? And what's going on at my house? You must be dying of anxiety!"
"That's it!" Lu Xiaofeng said: "When I went to your house, your sister-in-law was crying, and your elder brother brought someone out to find you. According to people in the house, it seems that your elder brother has sent someone to notify your father. .”
"It's also a coincidence that I was able to find you so quickly. You know, I am in charge of the younger beggars in Wancheng County. I am their boss. After you disappeared, I asked them to find you. It just so happened Xiao Linzi saw someone sneaking into the back door of Pinxiang Building carrying a big sack. Combined with the time of your disappearance and the relationship between Pinxiang Building and a matter I was investigating, I found an opportunity to sneak in After searching around, I just ran into you unexpectedly, what luck."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled happily, and finally added, "Qitong, I always thought you were the son of everyone, with excellent cultivation, but I didn't expect you to fight so hard that I almost couldn't stand it." In fact, he touched his sore chest.
Hua Manlou smiled apologetically, pulled his sleeve and shook it lightly, "It hurts?"
When he was asked such a question, Lu Xiaofeng felt embarrassed. He pretended not to care and said, "It's okay! The few times I hit you were not light." He scratched his messy hair and stood up. Said: "Let's go quickly, get out before no one finds out."
The bright white moonlight was covered by layers of dark clouds. The two children hid from place to place, cautiously, and finally reached the gate of the backyard. Lying in a hidden corner, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly let out a "meow", two long and one short just right. Three times.
He tilted his head and explained in a low voice to Hua Manlou who was full of surprise: "Xiao Linzi is responding outside, this is our communication code."
As soon as his words fell, the wooden door opened, revealing a tiny crack.Lu Xiaofeng quickly got up, looked around for a while, then dragged Hua Manlou and ran towards the door.With a flash, the two slender figures disappeared behind the door.
Huamanlou let out a heavy gasp, her tense nerves were completely relaxed, and she was glad that she finally escaped.
"Boss!" In the dark alley, a vague shadow came over, "He was rescued?!"
Lu Xiaofeng's proud voice rang in his ears, "Of course! Is there anything that your boss can't do?!"
After a pause, he said again: "Let's go quickly, this is not a place to stay for a long time, if you are caught back, you won't be lucky enough to escape safely again."
The wrist held by Lu Xiaofeng shrank slightly, and he looked back at the dark door again.
"What's the matter?" Lu Xiaofeng's doubtful words came from the darkness.
Hua Manlou shook his head, and didn't care that the other party couldn't see him, but habitually raised the corners of his mouth, showing a gentle smile: "It's nothing, I just want to go back quickly, I have to go back quickly."
The moon was bright and white, and the stars were twinkling. The two children ran hand in hand like the wind in the dark night. There were few people on the street. One or two who passed by occasionally turned their heads and looked sideways.
When they returned to the familiar mansion, the two of them were out of breath.The servants in the mansion cheered and rushed to tell each other, clapping their hands in rejoicing, and the sister-in-law of the Hua family even wept with joy, holding the child's delicate body and refusing to let go.
When the boss of the Hua family who went out to look for someone got the news and rushed back, she wiped her tears and put him down.
The eldest brother of the Hua family also looked excited, with tears in his eyes. There are seven brothers in his family. The difference between his eldest brother and the youngest Huamanlou is more than 20 years old. It can be said that he treats the youngest brother as his own son. with.This time he took office as a new official and came to Wancheng County to be the county magistrate, but after all he couldn't bear to let him go, so he purposely brought him here to stay for a while, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
He is a man, he will not lose control like Mrs. Hua, and he will not cry bitterly while hugging someone. He just strokes the top of the child's head with his big generous hand over and over again, "It's good to be back, it's good to be back... …”
Then, he said to the boy in simple clothes, with a chicken nest head on his head, a small face so black that he couldn't tell what he looked like, but with a pair of moving eyes, "This time is also thanks to you, thank you!" Help me find him."
Boss Hua was very emotional. Originally, he was very displeased with his well-behaved younger brother and this cunning person as friends, fearing that the other party would teach Qitong badly, but he did not expect that it was this person who rescued his younger brother at the critical moment. The Hua family has never been ungrateful. At this moment, he completely agrees with him. This person will be the forever friend of the Hua family.
Seeing the always serious magistrate thanking him so earnestly, Lu Xiaofeng scratched his head in embarrassment, and said with a chuckle: "Qitong is my friend, this is what I should do, don't thank me."
"Haha!" Boss Hua laughed heartily, and put his right hand on his immature shoulder, "A good friend, I just say this to you, the door of the Hua family will always be open for you!"
The living room was brightly lit, and Hua Manlou was sitting in the arms of his sister-in-law, describing in detail what had happened throughout the day. His voice was crisp and clear, and his words were not very vivid, but he was serious and careful, and every detail was carefully thought out. Never been missed by him.
Boss Hua looked serious and listened very carefully, Aunt Hua and Lu Xiaofeng didn't make a sound, only the soft and immature voice of the child in the flower hall spoke quietly.
Finally he said: "Although I escaped, that brother must have been caught, brother, can you help me rescue him?" Clear eyes were full of pleading.
Boss Hua promised: "Don't worry Qitong, don't say that he was in trouble because of you. The Hua family has no reason not to save it. Even with my current status, I am also a parent. If something like this happens in my jurisdiction, I can never stand by and watch!"
Huamanlou smiled warmly and was extremely happy!
At this time, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly interjected: "Brother Hua, I suspect that the matter of Pinxianglou may be related to the Yunlong Gang, you can look into it."
"Yunlong gang? That Jianghu gang that has just been established in recent years?"
Lu Xiaofeng nodded, and said in a rare serious manner: "To tell you the truth, several children from my place have disappeared, all aged between five and ten years old. After several months of investigation, this matter is inseparable from the Yunlong Gang. relation."
"You mean, this is a criminal organization specialized in abducting and trafficking children?!" Boss Hua clapped the case.
Lu Xiaofeng hesitated for a moment, and said: "I can't be [-]% sure, but as far as we have investigated the situation for several months, it is estimated that it is close to ten."
Boss Hua pondered for a moment, and said, "I will investigate this matter thoroughly, and you and your group of friends should not get involved."
"Why?" Lu Xiaofeng was very dissatisfied, "I still want to find Niuniu and the others."
"I'll help you find them, but you have to get out as soon as possible." Boss Hua waved his sleeves and said decisively: "This matter is too dangerous. If you are not careful, you children will fall into the trap of sheep, so no further investigation is allowed. Leave everything to the government."
Lu Xiaofeng pursed his lips unconvinced, and was about to refute, but saw the child nestled in Mrs. Hua's arms wink secretly at him, he pursed his lips, scratched his messy hair, and fell silent.
After late at night, Lu Xiaofeng nestled under the quilt, carefully pushed the flowers all over the building, and said, "Why don't you let me tell you that our 'Little Gang' is not easy to mess with, we have already lost five people, how is it possible If you don't want to investigate, don't investigate, even if I agree, Hou Jinger will not agree."
"But brother said, it will be very dangerous." Hua Manlou looked worried.
Lu Xiaofeng said disapprovingly: "It has been investigated for several months, and if there is any danger, it would have happened long ago. Besides, our actions have always been very careful, so it is so easy to be discovered."
"That can't be helped. With the eldest brother's temperament, no one can change what he decides. If you insist, he will probably imprison you in the mansion and won't let you go anywhere."
Lu Xiaofeng frowned, and said hesitantly, "This is impossible."
"You can try it!" Hua Manlou raised an eyebrow.
Seeing his skeptical look, he suddenly showed a sly smile, "However, it's not impossible."
Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What can I do? Tell me!"
Hua Manlou said unhurriedly: "You can continue the investigation. Anyway, you didn't promise him anything. He won't know what to do when he leaves the house tomorrow morning."
Lu Xiaofeng opened his mouth wider and wider, and finally screamed: "Well, you are a flower man, when did you become so cunning! Hahahahaha!"
Hua Manlou replied slowly: "The one who is close to vermilion is red and the one who is close to ink is black. I didn't learn from you."
Lu Xiaofeng smirked and lay down on the pillow, patting the bed with both hands.
"But you must promise me one thing."
"What's the matter?" The protruding face was red, and the eyes were shining.
Hua Manlou bit his finger and said, "You should also add me when you investigate, I will rescue that brother!"
The white robe was really conspicuous in the dark night. In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, he walked cautiously, not even daring to take a breath.Now he can't make any mistakes, because it's not only about whether he can escape smoothly, but he also bears the safety of another person on his body.
