"How many children have disappeared in Xixiang City recently?" Yang Si and Chu Yi walked on the street with Xiao Yanzi.
It feels like I haven't been out for a few days, and the whole Xixiang City seems to be a little depressed.
After the discussion, Yang Si and Chu Yi came out. In addition to acting as bait, they also really wanted to help with the case of the missing child.
If the other party doesn't take the bait, then it's like solving a missing child case.
If you take the bait, follow the plan.
Now there is a tense atmosphere everywhere in Xixiang City.
The patrols of the city defense army have also become more intensive, and some officials from the Xixiang City Government Office can also be seen patrolling.
For a long time, because Xixiang City was the base camp of the Yang family, the garrison troops were all Yang family troops, and there was also a Yang family army camp next to it.
Therefore, the yamen servants of the government are basically the same existence, and usually they only need to go about their daily lives.
Now the Yang family's army is on an expedition, and the case of missing children has made these government servants who have been dawdling around become the main force.
However, the ability of the yamen servant who has been dawdling must not be very good.
"Let's go, first go to the governor and find out if they have any relevant progress." Yang Si said.
"Okay!" Chu Yi naturally had no objection.
Later, Yang Si and his party found the governor Wei Jiaqiang.
As the fourth son of the Yang family, Yang Si would naturally not face any difficulties. He easily met Wei Jiaqiang, who was in charge of the government office.
"Mr. Yang, I don't know why you are here." Wei Jiaqiang smiled and greeted him.
"Wei Governor is polite. It's just that there has been some unrest in Xixiang City recently. I, the Yang family, naturally have to do my part. Unfortunately, my father is leading the army on the expedition, so I can only come here and do my small part." Yang Si bowed his hand.
Although he and Wei Song didn't get along well, Yang Si was still very polite as Wei Jiaqiang was the governor of Xixiang City.
I have conflicts with his son, but not with him.
The governor of Xixiang City is actually similar to a decoration, or it can be said that it is the eyes placed here by the imperial court to monitor the Yang family.
Xixiang is considered Shangzhou, and the governor of Shangzhou is in Daxia Kingdom, so he is considered a third-rank official.
Although Emperor Xia believed in the Yang family, some superficial efforts still had to be made.
It makes sense to put a third-rank official here to supervise, but in Xixiang City, the governor of Shangzhou does not have much real power.
"Haha, it's natural that Mr. Yang is willing to come and help." Wei Jiaqiang responded with a smile.
Regardless of whether Yang Si can help or not, Wei Jiaqiang cannot refuse just because Yang Si represents the Yang family.
Later, Yang Si unexpectedly discovered that the two brothers Wei Song and Wei Xiong were also there. It was estimated that Wei Jiaqiang also wanted his two sons to gain some merit in this matter.
The two brothers Wei Song and Wei Xiong had completely different expressions when they saw Yang Si.
When Wei Song saw Yang Si appearing intact, his eyes were full of unwillingness, resentment and resentment.
Previously, on the way back from Jingxin Temple, he encountered Yang Si being ambushed by men in black. He was still looking forward to Yang Si being killed.
Although Wei Xiong came back later to tell him that Yang Si escaped safely.
But now that he saw Yang Si safe and sound with his own eyes, Wei Song still felt very uncomfortable.
Wei Xiong's eyes were a little dodgey and he didn't dare to look at Yang Si. After all, he knew that Yang Si was a second-rate warrior.
Wei Xiong now only hopes that Yang Si's attention will not be on him, but he is tight-lipped.
However, Yang Si ignored the two brothers.
Then he asked Wei Jiaqiang about some cases, found the files and read them carefully, and then resigned.
Wei Jiaqiang looked at Yang Si's retreating back, his eyes flickering inexplicably.
. . .
"These people are really brave."
Yang Si felt a little emotional.
From the situation recorded in the file, Yang Si learned that since the first day of his father's expedition, children had disappeared that night.
But there was only one, and the government didn't pay much attention to it at that time, simply thinking that he was lost.
After all, Xixiang City is a big city. It is normal for a child of several years old to get lost, so he sent some government officials to help find him.
As a result, children continued to disappear in the next few days. It was not until the day Yang Si went out to read the poems that more than 20 children disappeared in one day that the matter was completely detonated.
But then in Xixiang City, families with children were on tight guard.
However, the other party had the audacity to set off the smoke, and after charming the adults, he directly abducted the child.
Yang Si and Chu Yi walked near the wall of Xixiang City.
"Tell me, how did they take those children out of the city?" Yang Si looked at the walls and gates of Xixiang City and asked in confusion.
The wall of Xixiang City is very tall. With Yang Si's current strength, it is unrealistic to cross the wall in one go, even if he uses ten perfect seven-star steps.
Moreover, there are now Yang family troops patrolling the city wall around the clock. It is very difficult for even a martial arts master to climb over the city wall silently.
Not to mention having children with you.
However, the direction of the city gate was completely under martial law, so it was definitely impossible to take the children out through the city gate.
"There are not many experts among the garrison. They just rely on the numerical advantage and the close coordination of the military formation. The first-class experts above the seventh level can climb over the city wall without disturbing them under the cover of night."
Xue Long's voice came from nowhere and reached Yang Si's ears clearly.
Obviously, Xue Long in the dark saw Yang Si staring at the city wall in a daze, and probably knew what Yang Si was thinking.
Although Xue Long looked silly when he spoke, as a strong man who could counterattack the Martial King of the Nine Realms with the power of the Eight Realms, how could he be so stupid.
Yang Si nodded slightly, indicating that he remembered the time when Taoist Master Ling Yu came back.
In broad daylight, he returned to the city without disturbing the garrison.
"Daughter-in-law, little Yanzi, in this situation, if you are gangsters, how should you take the children out." Yang Si withdrew his gaze from the city wall.
Hearing this, Chu Yi and Xiao Yanzi both lowered their heads slightly in thought.
If the other party is really a first-class master, then Yang Si is also powerless.
However, first-class masters are not just cabbage.
After a while, Chu Yi raised her head: "It's very difficult, almost impossible. All I can think of is forcing my way through."
Break in? Yang Jiajun's illustrious reputation is not a vegetarian.
As long as they form a military formation and cooperate with powerful crossbows, even top-notch experts will not gain any benefit.
Otherwise, in this martial arts world, why would the Great Xia Dynasty be as stable as an old dog?
On the other hand, Xiao Yanzi was even more confused and shook her head. Her little brain was also making things difficult for her.
"So there is no guarantee for children who were born before martial law in Xixiang City."
"But after the martial law in Xixiang City, there is a high probability that the missing children are still in Xixiang City." Yang Si rubbed his chin.
But Xixiang City is too big, and there are many powerful people there. If you want to investigate them one by one, it will definitely be impossible.
Unless Yang Yanxuan is still in the city, he has the prestige to lead the Yang family army to investigate the whole city one by one.
Headache!
Yang Si frowned.
Afterwards, he strolled all the way to the city gate.
At the city gate, the garrison troops of the Yang Family Army were checking at the city gate as always.
Whether it is a carriage or a truck, everything entering and exiting is checked very carefully one by one before being released.
The sacks containing the goods are also opened and carefully inspected.
And it's not a random inspection, it's all inspected one by one, very carefully.
Therefore, it is basically impossible to sneak out from the city gate.
Suddenly, Yang Si frowned and watched a group of four or five great monks come in from the city gate.
