Chapter 54 False alarm
(It is @天子公司 on the seventh day of the first lunar month)
As the sky gradually became late, night fell, and the lights on the street were lit up. The little carpenter sat on the bluestone slab, as if he had lost his energy, his eyes were blank and empty.
He had already circulated all this area, and I don’t know how many people he asked, but there was no other news except for one person telling him that Gu Baiguo was taken away.
Gu Baiguo was lost by him.
When the little carpenter thought of this, the heart of the little carpenter was swallowed by endless regret and sadness. It seemed to be tightly held tightly with force and pinched it one by one.
Although I didn't have any physical feeling, my heart still couldn't help but feel ache.
The pain made it difficult for the little carpenter to breathe. He felt a blur in front of his eyes, and the world was not worth it.
Why is this happening?
I have only known each other for a few days, so why do I feel this way? It is even more sad than seeing my master die in front of me?
Is the love of a few days deeper than the grace of raising more than ten years?
The little carpenter felt distressed, but when he thought of this question, he felt even more terrible - what was wrong with him?
How could this happen?
Is it because I have changed or that little girl, it hurts so much?
He is not the kind of old fox who has read all the world and has a hazy feeling. At this moment, he seems to have lost something crucial, and his mind is messy. I don’t know how long it took, someone kicked him in the leg and asked, “What are you doing?”
He didn't respond, and the man became fierce: "Hey, you're cutting your head, saying, "You're going to stand up..."
The little carpenter looked up and saw three men in blue jackets surrounded by him. They were all strong and powerful, with a bright look and a bad look. His mind was stuck.
At this time someone came over and pulled him up.
Someone reached out to his back and wanted to remove the Hanxue Knife from his back.
As soon as the man touched the knife, the little carpenter moved almost subconsciously, avoiding the man's hand and breaking free from the man's control in front of him. The other party also reacted and shouted loudly: "This man has a knife."
As soon as these words were said, the few people next to them suddenly became nervous, and some even pulled out their daggers.
Not far away, several people came around.
At this time, the little carpenter realized that these guys were not others, but the backbone whom Brother Yucheng Pao would draw from various places.
The reason why they patrol here is to guard against the plot of the Ghost Face Brother Association.
Thinking of this, the little carpenter dared not do anything randomly, for fear that those people would treat him as someone from the Ghost Face Brother Association. Then, if they use swords and hurt people, they will become ignorant.
So he waved his hand while stepping back and said, "Everyone, I'm a misunderstanding, I'm not a bad person."
Seven or eight people from the Pao Brother Association surrounded the little carpenter, and someone shouted, "Come on the name."
Seeing these people so nervous, the little carpenter knew that in this situation of panic and full of plants and trees, he could not be smart, so he could only say: "I'm going to be a Gan Mo, that's..."
hiss……
Before he could finish his words, there was a sound of air conditioning next to him. Then someone came forward, looked at him for a while, and hurriedly shouted: "It's Mr. Gan, Mr. Gan Mogan, the descendant of the Luban Confucianism. I have seen him outside the Lecture Hall, don't do it."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere between the venue was much more relaxed.
A leading middle-aged man stepped forward and bowed to the little carpenter and said, "Of course, we are so embarrassed that we have offended us. Please forgive me."
The other party was polite. The little carpenter was not the one who used his power to suppress others. He smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's me that's abrupt."
When the man heard this, he thought the little carpenter was talking politely, and said cryingly: "Old Gan, I'm really sorry, we, we..."
He actually stuttered a little, not as aggressive as before.
The little carpenter then realized that the other party had misunderstood and said, "Okay, I'm really fine. You guys go and do it, I'm going back too."
When the man heard this, he quickly took out a wooden sign from his arms and handed it to the little carpenter, saying, "Old Gan, tonight, the whole city will be searched, and all irrelevant people need to be checked. During the special period, I have no choice. This wooden sign is one of the few passes under my authority. On this road, no matter whether you meet the brothers from our Brothers Association, the police or the army, you can pass this sign..."
The little carpenter took it over and bowed: "Thank you."
After giving the pass sign, the man turned around and waved his hand and took the person away. The little carpenter saw the solemn atmosphere around him, and he didn't think about it anymore and walked towards the hotel.
On the way back, the originally lively night in Yucheng became a little bleak now.
The people who came and went on the road, except for the Yucheng robes wearing blue jackets and black cloth shoes, and patrolling a small number of uniforms, they saw almost no one else, and they felt the depression of "a storm was about to come and the wind filled the building."
The little carpenter was investigated several times, but fortunately there was a wooden pass, so he didn't get any trouble.
When he returned to the hotel, he found two soldiers standing at the door, guarding with live ammunition.
Obviously, both the military and political circles are also worried about the public security in Yucheng. Key units like this have to send people to guard them.
The little carpenter was a resident here, so he naturally came in easily. Then he suddenly remembered something, that was Gu Baiguo's disappearance. Can you go to Yucheng Pao Brother to help?
In fact, even though Mr. Cheng Wu just became the leader, his power was amazingly great.
In this huge Yucheng, Gan Mo was just looking for a needle in a haystack, but if the Yucheng Pao brother would take the lead, it might not be that difficult, right?
However, not to mention whether Brother Yucheng Pao can be found, if he finds Master Cheng Wu this time, will he get even more entangled?
And if that is the case, how should he handle himself?
The little carpenter was covered in mud, holding the fat tiger cat, and returned to the room in a daze. He glanced at Jiang Lao Er lying on the bed, greeted him, and prepared to stay in the living room, but felt something was wrong.
What happened to the soup bowl on the cabinet next to the bed?
The little carpenter quickly walked to the bed, picked up the porcelain bowl with a little soup left, and asked Jiang Laoer excitedly: "Where did this medicine come from?"
Jiang Lao Er glanced at him for no reason and said, "Ginkgo."
The little carpenter was very excited: "Ginkgo is back? Where is she?"
He looked around and did not find anyone in the room, while Jiang Lao Er said lazily: "She came over to deliver the medicine and stayed for a long time. She had not waited for you, so she was taken home by her uncle."
Uncle...home?
When the little carpenter heard the word "take back", he felt nervous suddenly. As a result, he chewed the whole sentence in his mouth, but felt a little surprised.
Wait, what happened? Why did an uncle suddenly appear?
The situation Jiang Laoer said was completely different from all the guesses of the little carpenter. The person who had a dispute with Gu Baiguo was not a ghost-faced brother-in-law or another fierce person, but her uncle?
Her uncle?
The more the little carpenter thought about it, the more ridiculous it became. He felt that all his previous worries and fears fell on the dog's belly.
When I recalled carefully, Gu Baiguo was simply a little devil. She lied to herself from the beginning, saying that she had suffered "abuse" while staying at her uncle's house, and her aunt beat and scolded her, etc. This is probably a lie?
She did not escape from her uncle's house and came to Yucheng to explore. She was originally in Yucheng, but when she heard about herself, she came over and took a look at it.
As for what happened next, it was an accident.
He was a man, but he ended up cheating on a little girl, which was ridiculous.
The little carpenter's mind was overwhelming, and Jiang Lao Er said: "Originally, Ginkgo was going to stay here, but her uncle disagreed. He was afraid that she would run away from home again. Ginkgo had no choice but to leave an address and ask you to go to her uncle's house to get medicine tomorrow morning, and she would help boil it..."
After saying that, he handed over a note and the little carpenter took it, glanced at it, nodded, and said yes, I got it.
He returned to the sofa in the living room, held the note tightly, and murmured in his heart: "You little guy, I'll find you tomorrow, let me show you..."
There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, the carpenter got up and washed up, ordered breakfast, and had eaten with the wounded Jiang Laoer. He then took the tiger-skinned fat cat out and looked for it according to the address on the note.
The place was on the riverside near Hongya Cave. The little carpenter spent some time on the way. When he arrived at the old street of Linjiang, the sun was already high.
This is an old neighborhood, and it is a poor area. The high and low wooden houses and shacks are messy, and the road is full of sewage and mud. If you accidentally step on animal feces, such as chickens, ducks, dogs, and even hot people, making people have to be careful when walking.
The streets were even more lively, with dirty old people sitting at the door, and children like mud monkeys running around the ground.
There was even a child holding a small wooden stick and poking the shit there...
Everything was so vivid and interesting, and the little carpenter inquired one by one and finally came to a small yard about ten feet away from the street and was quite a stalemate.
He knocked on the somewhat swaying door, coughed his throat, and then shouted: "May I ask, is this Wu Xuesong's house?"
The little carpenter shouted twice, and a shirtless man wearing a leather apron came out of the house, glared at him, and said, "Which one are you looking for?"
The little carpenter glanced at the sharp knife dripping from the strong man's hand and said, "My name is Gan Mo, come here to find Gu Baiguo."
The strong man glared and shouted, "Are you the Gan Mo who kidnapped my niece?"
As he spoke, he walked over with a bloody knife.
