Zheng Miao was muttering, and several dark figures were sneaking around outside the temple where she and Ning'er were hiding, peeking in from time to time.
Ning'er shrank her body in fear and approached Zheng Miao. Zheng Miao also hugged Ning'er uneasily. At the same time, she took out several small bottles from her waist and held them in her hands for self-defense.
A man in black with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks looked at the door for a while, then stepped into the temple first, then turned back to greet his companions. After a while, six or seven men in black entered the temple and started rummaging around.
Seeing those dark shadows approaching, Zheng Miao sighed desperately and threw out several small bottles. Then he took Ning'er and ran out of the temple in the chaos, and fled outside the ruined temple.
The bottles fell to the ground, their bodies shattering, and a thick puff of smoke rose up. In the smoke, the men in black let out pitiful howls, covering their faces and falling to the ground.
At the entrance of the temple, Zheng Miao and Ning'er had just ran out of the broken gate when suddenly a large silver net fell from the sky. Before Zheng Miao could see the attacker clearly, she and Ning'er were covered by the large silver net as thin as her little finger, and then He was carried to the carriage parked behind the temple.
A man in black with a scary scar on his face returned to the ruined temple to check, then hurried out and made a gesture to the other men in black. The men in black jumped on the carriage and drove away Zheng Miao and Ning'er Juechen.
The scarred man did not leave. Instead, he turned around and jumped onto the wall of the ruined temple. He hid among the lush branches and leaves of an old tree and glanced at the rugged path leading to the ruined temple from time to time.
After about a cup of tea, Su Qiqi, Qin Chuan and Granny Cui appeared on the path. The three of them walked, looking left and right, and soon arrived in front of the temple gate.
Qin Chuan was calling his sister and Ning'er's names and was about to push the door in, but was stopped by Su Qiqi. She pointed at the messy footprints on the ground and warned in a low voice: "Look, these footprints go in and out. I'm afraid someone has already been here... We have to be careful!"
Qin Chuan and Granny Cui nodded, and then the three of them cautiously entered the ruined temple. When they walked outside the temple, the three of them saw the man in black lying on the ground. They stopped in unison.
Su Qiqi observed the movement around her, and then tentatively fired a few flying needles into the palace. After waiting for a while and seeing no strange movement, she, Qin Chuan and Granny Cui went into the palace to check.
The three people walked up to the man in black and looked at the man in black's unrecognizable face and the broken medicine bottle on the ground in surprise. Su Qiqi picked up a piece of crumbs, looked at it, and then brought it close to her nose to smell it. Her heart skipped a beat, not good! Someone really came! And it is very possible that Zheng Miao and Ning'er were kidnapped!
Thinking of this, she quickly turned to look at Qin Chuan and said, "We are late, Wan and Ning'er may have been taken away!"
Qin Chuan frowned and searched the temple carefully with some reluctance. After confirming that there was no trace of Wan and Ning'er, he stood with his sword hanging down in frustration, looking at the broken temple wall and the tangled old trees outside the door. daze.
After a while, he cheered up and asked Granny Cui: "Grandma, did you find any suspicious people on your way to the ruined temple?"
Granny Cui pondered for a while and then said hesitantly: "When we first left the city, we seemed to have met a man with a scar on his face... The man walked with us for a while, and then turned to the other side when we were approaching the ruined temple. There was only one way to go, so we didn’t think much about it…”
"It seems... that scarred man is most likely the murderer who kidnapped Zheng Miao and Ning'er..." Su Qiqi analyzed.
Qin Chuan nodded and added: "And he has accomplices. These men in black should also be his accomplices... Let's search carefully and see if we can find some clues from these people..." After that, he First, he squatted down and rummaged around the man in black at his feet.
Su Qiqi and Granny Cui also came to help. The three people worked for a while, and finally found a copper waist plate from one of the men in black that could prove their identity. The waist plate was shaped like a gourd, with a round hole in the center and a string attached to it. The front of the waist medal is engraved with the large Chinese character "order", and the back is engraved with the small characters "Beijing Guard Night Patrol Bronze Medal" and a series of special numbers.
Seeing this bronze waist medal, Su Qiqi felt even heavier. She originally thought that the only opponents behind the scenes were Liu Shilang and Wu Sheng Escort Bureau. Now it's great. Even the Beijing Guards patrol camp is involved. It's really a headache!
She couldn't help but raise her hand and rub her temples to calm herself down. Qin Chuan saw her distracted look and asked with concern: "Su'er, are you okay?"
Su Qiqi shook her head slightly and said: "We have to find General Fan as soon as possible... Things are getting more and more complicated..."
Qin Chuan suppressed his worries and rushed to the general's mansion with Su Qiqi and Granny Cui.
When Su Qiqi and others walked out of the ruined temple not far away, the scarred man jumped down from the temple wall and quietly followed the three of them, following them leisurely.
When they arrived at the General's Mansion, Su Qiqi was surprised to see Vice General Zhang standing outside the gate, rubbing his hands and looking towards the intersection from time to time.
Su Qiqi hurriedly came forward to say hello. Vice General Zhang was stunned for a moment and lowered his voice: "I was just going to find you... But, I have to wait for someone... You go to the side hall and wait, General Fan I'll be back soon..." After that, he asked a soldier to take Su Qiqi and others to the side hall of Fan Mansion.
After a while, a blue soft sedan came slowly from the intersection and stopped at the door of the General's Mansion. An imposing middle-aged man wearing a cloak and a hat walked out from inside.
When Vice General Zhang saw the man, he immediately showed a happy face. He personally stepped forward to welcome the man into the general's mansion and brought him to the side hall where Su Qiqi and others were.
Su Qiqi showed a surprised expression when she saw this middle-aged man dressed strangely. Qin Chuan had a stern look on his face and silently looked at the visitor.
The man didn't say anything, and sat down at the tea table. He whispered a few words to Vice General Zhang and then stopped talking. He drank tea alone.
Su Qiqi couldn't help but look at Vice General Zhang in confusion. Vice General Zhang came over and said a few words, asked Su Qiqi and others to wait patiently, and hurried out.
Su Qiqi and Qin Chuan had no choice but to continue drinking tea to cover up the awkward atmosphere. Granny Cui sat quietly, looking at the middle-aged man in unusual clothing with a wary expression.
After about an hour, General Fan finally came back. Su Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief, and when he stepped forward to salute, he took the opportunity to briefly tell General Fan what happened today.
After hearing this, General Fan's face changed slightly, and soon returned to his expressionless expression. He said in a deep voice: "Are you sure those people are from the patrol camp?"
Su Qiqi nodded and handed the bronze waist badge that he had just put away to General Fan. General Fan took the badge and looked at it carefully before walking towards the middle-aged man who was drinking tea. He handed him the badge in his hand and said, "Commander Wang, do you think this badge belongs to your camp?"
The middle-aged man put down his teacup, took the badge, glanced at it, and said, "Yes, he is from our patrol camp. It seems I have to go back and check..."
General Fan smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, I still have something to discuss with Brother Wang..."
The middle-aged man took off his bamboo hat, put it on the table, and said with a chuckle: "Oh, Brother Yu would like to hear the details..."
General Fan recounted what happened recently and what Su Qiqi had just told him. The middle-aged man was silent for a while and cursed angrily: "They are a bunch of people who are eating inside and outside, wait until I get back to deal with them..."
