The Fenglai Inn was demolished in the middle of the night, and all the nearby residents came to their homes to watch the excitement. Although Huaicheng is not a big city like Yuancheng, it is the hub for going north.
There are three route options to go north. The first is the main road built for wealthy people. It is spacious and flat, making it very convenient for driving and horseback riding, and is not affected by the weather.
There are people living on the roadside and many doing business. Food, clothing and supplies are sold along the way.
There are also many scenic spots. When you are tired of walking, you can find a hotel to stay and visit nearby scenic spots for a few days before setting off.
There are also special buses for transportation, similar to modern long-distance buses, suitable for travelers who have acceptable conditions but do not own a carriage.
This 'dedicated line' will stop at restaurants along the way for passengers to get off and eat.
The second route is for people with average economic conditions.
Basically, everyone walks on their legs, and some drive donkey carts or ox carts, which pull passengers who are picked up along the way. The fare is not expensive and economical.
The journey is hard, but there are 'rest areas' like Huaicheng where you can stay, but the distance between the stops is relatively long. If something happens to delay the journey, you can only spend one night in the wild.
There are definitely dangers, so when walking on this route, you must form your own team. The more people you have, the safer it will be.
The third route is the mountain road. There is a road in the mountain, but it is rugged and difficult to walk, but it is better than being hidden. It is suitable for those who don’t want to see people or can’t see the light.
That is the most dangerous route, both to the robbers in the mountains and to the passers-by themselves.
The route chosen by General Manager Zhang was the second type. On the road, men, women, old and young traveled together in teams, which was not eye-catching.
When a car passes by, if there is enough space, Manager Zhang will pay us to take a ride in the car.
Huaicheng is the only place for civilians to go north, and those who come to the city to rest are basically ordinary people without money and power.
The Fu family may have taken a fancy to this and dared to open an inn here to resell people.
There are more than a dozen inns in the city, all of which are affordable. The price of this Fenglai Inn is a little expensive.
Ximen Wuhen demolished it into rubble, and all the buildings on the ground collapsed. The innkeeper's "support" arrived and rescued the few guys who had fainted.
The people from the government came to arrest Ximen Wuhen, but the little effort they had was like a mantis' arm in front of Ximen's leader.
The sword was shattered into several pieces by Ximen Wuhen. If they dared to reach out, their arms and legs would be broken.
The Fu family sent a group of thugs they hired. When they saw it was Ximen Wuhen, someone recognized him. He was the master who slapped the Fu family's wealth away during the day. They didn't dare to take action, but they had to do something after taking the money. They hesitated for a long time. , or rushed forward in a swarm.
Then they flew out in a swarm and lay in a heap on the ground.
The big devil finally showed his power and grabbed the master of Huaicheng Yamen and ordered him to arrange for people to clean up the ruins of the inn and dig three feet into the ground to dig out Yun Zhou and me.
The official had one of his arms broken by him, crying for his father and calling for his mother, not daring to disobey him.
At present, all the thugs and government servants in the city combined are no match for Ximen Wuhen alone.
All the people came out to watch the fun. Hundreds of lanterns were lit, and some held torches, lighting up the inn as bright as day.
The surrounding melon-eating people were talking about this handsome young man, I am afraid he has a lot of background.
The Fu family kicked the iron plate this time. They didn't get any benefit, and they couldn't save their legs.
He was demolishing the house above, and I was talking to the imprisoned girls below.
They were all foreigners who were sent down by the authorities while staying in this inn.
Their parents and family still don't know what happened to them.
Ordinarily, if they disappeared, their families would definitely complain to the innkeeper and report them to the police.
But they have been missing for several days. After we moved in, we did not hear that any tenants in the inn had lost their daughters.
I opened their cell door, led them up the stairs to the exit, and used my breath to push away the debris blocking the tunnel door.
As soon as I arrived at the exit, I heard the shouts of Manager Zhang and Yue Nanxiang. One of them shouted "daughter" and the other cried "sister". The crowd onlookers called them pitiful and looked at them with sympathy.
I pushed open the tunnel door and climbed up with the girls. The sounds outside immediately stopped.
Surprises and suspicions arose, so I took the lead and shouted: "Dad, I asked this gangster to arrest him. The bed board was a mechanism. It suddenly flipped over in the middle of the night and sent us into an underground secret room. There were several girls imprisoned in it. They were all from other parts of the country." Guest, Daddy~ This is a shady store!"
I rushed forward, gave Manager Zhang a "hug" that was heavily staged, and then wiped away the non-existent tears.
The long string of words I just shouted out could be heard clearly by the people around me. I also used my internal power to transmit the sound to ensure that the onlookers a few streets away could hear it clearly.
The girls who crawled out later cried loudly and shouted to find their families. They all ran to the innkeeper, grabbed him and asked him, where are their families?
The innkeeper had just been slapped by Ximen Wuhen, and his face was swollen like a pig's head. All the waiters who dared to step forward to protect him were beaten to half a disability.
He himself was kicked, his right leg was broken, and he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.
After the girls grabbed him, they went to attack Mr. Guan. Mr. Guan had just been choked by Ximen Wuhen, and he only let go with one breath left.
Now he was so weak that he was shaken by the girls until he vomited.
A young man among the onlookers suddenly pointed at one of the girls and shouted: "Is that you? Little fat girl, your parents went to the government to file a complaint and were thrown into jail!"
The girl he was referring to was about fourteen or five years old, fair and round, and as cute as a white rabbit bun.
Ximen Wuhen had just dealt with the innkeeper, the official, and all the thugs who could move.
Seeing that I had come out, he finally stopped, stood on the ground with his arms folded, and said to me: "Little sister, if these people harm you, brother will leave them to you to deal with."
With my sharp eyes, I saw Yunzhou trying to take out his snack bag, so I quickly returned to him and took his hand out of the snack bag.
Sure enough, he went to pick up the braised chicken feet. For some evil people, killing them is too easy and too cheap.
It would be better to let them meet us than to kill them.
The girls' families are all imprisoned in government prisons, so our next 'office' location will be moved to the government office.
Manager Zhang watched the master write the transcript and recorded the girl's testimony one by one.
Ximen Wuhen watched the official write a confession, write down his crime, and sign it.
I took Yunzhou to Fu's house, and the door of Fu's house was closed.
All their main thugs have been sent to the inn to support them, and now those people are writing confessions in the Yamen.
The remaining servants and guards greeted me outside the gate with swords, guns and sticks.
"Do you want to go by yourself, or do you want to be carried away?" I looked at them and gave them two choices.
They immediately threw down their weapons and fled. They wouldn't be unaware of what happened at the inn tonight.
I slapped the door of Fu's house flying with my palm, and Yun Zhou picked up a rolling pin from the weapons thrown by the servants.
Maybe there was a cook from the Fu family in the group just now. It wouldn't be surprising to see a rolling pin hidden in the sword, gun, and stick.
The heavy door panel hit the ground and the floor tiles cracked. It was impossible for the people in the house to miss such a loud noise.
However, no one came out to see me. There were obviously many people in the room.
The maids of the Fu family are not my target. I am here to find the old man of the Fu family, Fu Yifu, and his son Fu Jiacai.
The innkeeper has already recruited them, and the inn in the city is a tool for the Fu family to catch young girls.
When the owners of each inn saw a good-looking person, they would arrange for them to stay in a room with the phone turned off.
Send people down to the secret room in the middle of the night, and then clean the room, creating the illusion that the residents left on their own.
If their family members go to the Yamen to file a complaint, the official will handle it.
Imprisonment is certain. It is up to the official to decide how long he wants to be imprisoned on a false charge.
In Huaicheng, where the sky is high and the emperor is far away, the Fu family is the law here.
Those who are sure to be obedient and will not be held accountable will be released, and those who are disobedient and keep clamoring for appeal will be imprisoned until death.
Although the official is an official sent by the northern court, he and the Fu family are in the same group.
Fu Jiacai was usually very domineering and flirted with good women in the street, and everyone in the city knew about it.
However, they did not do this business of human trafficking openly. When the onlookers heard this tonight, their expressions were surprised.
This is guaranteed to be more than just one of the immoral things Fu did. Even if Guard Jia and the others beat him, it would be considered a minor offense.
The lights in the room were out, and a group of people were hiding inside, trembling with fear.
The Fu family's courtyard occupies one-third of the area of Huaicheng, with courtyards and gardens within the courtyard.
I would check every house with people in it. They were all occupied by women. I would not open the door to go in. If there were men, I would open the door and take a look.
Fu Yifu and Fu Jiacai were not among these people. I asked a few people, but they did not dare to say.
It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I can continue to look for it. It is the darkest part of the long night. All the lights in Fu's house are turned off, pretending that no one is there.
I hummed tuneless music and looked for them from room to room, which inexplicably filled the atmosphere of terror.
The old song echoed in my mind.
Ding Dong~ Someone is ringing the doorbell...Who is outside...
I searched all the rooms on the ground floor, but couldn't find the Fu family and his son.
Since the inn has an underground secret room, the Fu family can also have one.
I used the skills of my original secret guard to observe the house and locate the underground space.
After searching for possible entrances in several places, I finally found a secret door under an abandoned well in a small courtyard.
The abandoned well is just a disguise. Open the mechanism on the edge of the well, and the whole thing moves away, revealing the downward staircase entrance.
I have seen the rooms in this small courtyard. From the luxurious and luxurious decoration of the room, I can tell that this is Fu Jiacai's courtyard.
There are many pictures of beautiful women hanging in his room, and the decorations are gaudy. The coat on the screen is also in line with Fu Jiacai's dressing style.
Going down the stairs, there is also a hidden arrow mechanism. I was prepared for it. While releasing the air shield to block the arrows, I released the air wire to drill into the hole of the mechanism and destroy the structure inside.
Yun Zhou followed me with a rolling pin in hand. I told him not to show up if something happened and to let me handle it. He would take action when I allowed him to do it.
At the bottom of the stairs is a long passage with torches and mechanisms on the walls on both sides.
I walked and cracked all the way, and when I got to the end, I was blocked by a stone door.
This stone gate is built in an impressive style, not inferior to that of the royal family, and there are auspicious beasts guarding the gate on both sides.
As long as there is a crack in the door, my Qi thread can get through.
I destroyed the mechanism of the stone door from the inside, and the stone door was pushed open by me without any force.
Arrows shot out instantly from inside, like a rain of arrows, but they were all blocked by my Qi shield.
I moved forward with my strength and walked into the stone gate facing the rain of arrows.
At this time, the 'qi' threads had penetrated into the surrounding walls and ceilings, destroying the mechanisms. The arrow rain stopped immediately, and the surrounding area returned to silence.
Yun Zhou looked around cautiously, looking for the person he wanted to beat.
I first observed the environment and was slightly surprised. I thought the Fu family and his son were just local snakes, using their money and power to collude with "power" to make shady money together.
I didn’t expect them to be so ambitious!
The design of this underground hall is similar to that of various royal palaces, only a few times smaller in scale, but with all the internal organs.
There is a throne in the middle of the hall, and there are seats for civil and military ministers on both sides.
In Pingqi Continent, each country has its own totems and colors that represent the supreme, which are not available to nobles and commoners.
In the Tengxue Kingdom in the north, white is revered, with white on the snow-capped mountains and black below. Therefore, the emperor's crown is inlaid with diamonds, and the throne is carved from black crystal.
The black throne in the center of the hall is made of black crystal, and its appearance is exactly the same as the imperial throne of Tengxue Kingdom.
Not to mention that the black crystal can only be used by the emperor of Tengxue Kingdom, this exact shape is enough to kill their whole family nine times.
"Come out." I looked around and called coldly.
There is only one entrance to the hall, and it is full of murderous devices.
If the two of them were down there, they must be hiding in some nook and cranny.
The two of them insisted on not showing their heads, so I observed them carefully and used my powers to look for the 'breath of life'.
Practicing Qigong recently is not in vain. I have discovered that while practicing Qigong, my abilities will also increase and make progress together.
I walked behind the throne and let out air threads to get into the gaps in the floor tiles.
It was empty below, with a small stone room and a mechanism hidden inside the floor.
I destroyed the mechanism and opened the entrance. As expected, Fu Yifu and Fu Jiacai, father and son, were inside.
The small stone room has luxurious furniture and a set of emperor's court clothes hanging on it.
It was like a miniature version of the emperor's palace. Seeing that I was safe and sound, my father and I were trembling with fear.
Fu Yifu came forward with his hand, and I waved my hand, telling him to stop talking and listen to me first.
I don't care if they want to usurp the throne or just enjoy themselves secretly, I don't want their lives anyway.
When they heard that I didn't want their lives, they were obviously relieved.
"I want money."
They relaxed even more after hearing my request, as if it was a false alarm, but I hadn't finished my words yet.
As soon as Fu Yifu's smile took shape, it solidified on his face.
It’s true that I want money, but I want all their property.
I carried the two of them back to the ground and went to Fu Yifu's house to settle accounts.
Now there are only two ways before them, either death or poverty.
Fu Yifu dilly-dallyed, seemingly stalling for time.
I smiled slightly and said to him: "If someone comes to support you, no matter who it is, I will first remove Mr. Fu's arms and legs, and then cut off Mr. Fu's, plus his third leg. I believe that after I die I can accomplish this task before."
