Chapter 153 Sorry for bothering you

The eldest lady of the Yu family disappeared mysteriously on the wedding night, covering the sky above Leijiazhuang like a cloud.

The news soon came out. In the lobby, the banquet was about to end, and there was still some wine that had not yet retreated. After hearing the news, the wine suddenly woke up halfway.

What Yu Chengsu was worried about finally became a fact. Not long after, Lord Zhang from Qianhu sent officers and soldiers to blockade the village with the cooperation of Leijiazhuang.

It took only half an hour to find that Yu Jiaxue was missing from Lei Zhenyu's departure to the wedding banquet tonight. Leijiazhuang specially sent additional personnel, but no one with abnormal whereabouts was found.

Zhang Qianhu said, "Don't worry, the Jiange city gate is closed now. Even if someone robs Jiaxue, he will not be able to leave the city in the middle of the night. The entire Jianmen is just such a big place. Even if the ground is three feet high, I will find Jiaxue."

Lei Zhenyu was a little confused. How could a living person disappear out of thin air? He was in a daze and murmured, "How could this be the case?"

Xiao Jinyan suddenly said, "I know who to look for."

He remembered the Xu Shanghao who was sitting together at the banquet today. When he said he wanted to rob the bride, he thought it was a joke, but now it seems that he may not be related to Yu Jiaxue's disappearance.

Li Qingcheng also said, "Who is surnamed Xu?"

Xiao Jinyan nodded and said, "From his remarks, even if he didn't do it directly, he would at least know some inside information."

Zhao Langjiang said, "Go and find him."

Xiao Jinyan stopped him, "Tonight is so chaotic. You three are better at martial arts. Just stay here to help the Lei family. It's enough for me and Li Qingcheng."

Xiao and Li walked out of Leijiazhuang.

Li Qingcheng said: "This Jianmen is big or small, and it may not be that easy to find someone. If that guy just finds a place to hide for a night, wouldn't we waste a night of effort?"

Xiao Jinyan analyzed, "If it weren't for him, after the banquet, he would definitely return to his original residence, either an inn or a friend's house. In my opinion, the possibility of an inn is greater!"

“Why?”

"His outfit is expensive and doesn't look like a person who is short of money. He must not live in a ruined temple or a Taoist temple. If it were you, where would you choose?"

Li Qingcheng Road, "Inn."

Xiao Jinyan smiled and said, "The best thing! If he did this, let's turn it back. Now that the city gate is closed, I'm afraid I can't get out with a living person. Where would you choose?"

Li Qingcheng said, "It's still an inn. After all, the Yu family is quite powerful in Jianmen and has the protection of thousands of adults. He will definitely offer a reward for clues. Then he will definitely pretend to be like the ordinary, avoid the limelight these days, and find a way to leave the city!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "It seems that after spending time with me for a long time, my mind has become smarter."

Li Qingcheng said angrily, "Will you die if you don't be narcissistic?"

Because it is a strategic fortress and a place where business travel is accessible, there are many inns in Jianmen City. When encountering the concentration period of business, many families in the city also converted a room in their homes into inns. So after nightfall, lanterns were lit in several streets in the city.

Xiao Jinyan said, "Even if it is an inn, there are so many inns in the city, and if you continue to check like this, you will have no clue."

Li Qingcheng Road, "Qionglou Inn."

“Why?”

Li Qingcheng said lightly, "Because the man named Xu used a square scarf during the banquet, with embroidery from Qionglou Inn on it."

"So you knew it a long time ago. You were pretending to behave and analyzed for a long time without any logic! I almost believed you, and I said that with your IQ, you can't do this."

Qionglou Inn is not the largest inn in Jianmen.

But it is the most expensive inn in Jianmen.

Unlike ordinary small posts, Qionglou Inn has been only targeted at high-ranking officials or gentry and wealthy people since its establishment.

This kind of inn doesn't work elsewhere, but Jianmen is not elsewhere. It is the only place for transporting grain from Shu in the north and west. There are two ways to transport grain from Shu in the east, one is the water and land of the Yangtze River, and the other is to transport grain from Jianmen.

Since ancient times, many grain merchants have been rich, and now it is a great opportunity to transport grain in Shu in the west. The rooms at Qionglou Inn have been fully booked.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the door, a friend stopped him, "Sorry, our inn is full, two guests."

Xiao Jinyan said, "Is there a young man named Xu in your inn, a native of Jinan Prefecture, Shandong."

The man said respectfully, "Our Qionglou Inn is a five-star inn, and there are regulations on it that guests' information must not be disclosed at will."

Xiao Jinyan smiled slightly, "Brother, we are Mr. Xu's friends. We originally made an appointment to meet tonight, so please report it."

The guy looked hesitant.

Xiao Jinyan took out a small golden sword from his arms, shook it in front of him, and said, "What do you think of this golden sword?"

The guy's eyes lit up, "Golden?"

"Golden!"

"Rules are dead, people live. Besides, we don't care about it. What do we call the two young masters? I'll go find Mr. Xu now."

The two said, "Just talk about two old friends."

After a while, the guy came back with a bowed face, "Young Master Xu said he would not see the guests."

"You didn't mention us?"

"I mentioned that there is something important tonight, even if the King of Heaven comes, he will not see you. But..." the guy whispered, "His room is on Tianzi No. 3, it is a suite..."

Xiao Jinyan bowed, "Thank you!"

As he said that, the two walked into the inn. The guy stayed in the room, with a look of hope and said, "Call, that little golden sword..."

"It looks good?"

"nice!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "Thank you, I feel so too." As he said that, he put it back in his arms.

The guy said anxiously, "Isn't it for me?"

Xiao Jinyan looked at him like an idiot, "Give it to you? I mean, if you don't tell us, I'll use this sword to poke a hole in you."

The two of them came to Tianzi No. 3. Xiao Jinyan mobilized the string power and found that there were two people breathing in the room. He glanced at Li Qingcheng, and Li Qingcheng also noticed it. He pointed to the room, bent his hands slightly, then buckled inwardly, then closed his palms and clenched into fists.

Seeing this, Xiao Jinyan also gestured with both hands.

Li Qingcheng was puzzled and asked in a low voice, "What does it mean?"

"I have no idea."

"I don't know what you're gesturing?"

"I mean I don't know what you mean."

Li Qingcheng said, "Talk according to the opportunity."

Xiao Jinyan said this nonsense and tried for a long time, saying, "There are two people in his room, and it is a woman who listens to his breathing. It seems that we are right. You will hold him up later and I will go up to save people."

The two of them discussed a countermeasure. Xiao Jinyan stepped forward and knocked on the door. Xu Shanghao's impatient voice came from the room, "Didn't I tell you that I will see no one today?"

Xiao Jinyan did not answer and continued to knock on the door.

After more than a dozen times, the next room finally became impatient and cursed: "Who are you? You knock on the door in the middle of the night, are you attending the funeral?"

Xiao Jinyan had no choice but to say, "Young Master Xu, please come out and see you."

"Who are you?"

"Zhao Langjiang."

There was a sensation in the room. After a while, Xu Shanghao walked out and opened the door. When he saw Xiao and Li, he did not see Zhao Langjiang. His face darkened, "Where is Brother Zhao?"

"He didn't come for something, we want to ask you something."

Xu Shanghao said unhappily, "What's the matter? Can't you tell me tomorrow?"

Xiao Jinyan said, "At the wedding banquet today, the eldest lady of the Yu family disappeared."

Xu Shanghao said oh, and said lightly, "I came back not long after the wedding banquet began. What does Miss Yu disappear? What does it have to do with me?"

"What happened this afternoon, what did you say about robbing a bride?"

Xu Shanghao laughed, "It's just a joke. What's wrong? Can't you even talk?"

"No, I just feel something is strange. Miss Yu disappeared shortly after you finished speaking. It's hard for us not to doubt you."

"That's your business. If there is nothing else, please come back. I'm going to rest."

Xiao Jinyan quickly stopped him, "If it weren't for you, I would like to ask, there is a girl in your room, who is that? Why not shout it out and meet and chat together?"

Xu Shanghao's face changed drastically, "What do you mean? Why should you be tainted and innocent?"

Li Qingcheng said, "Yes or not, you will know it after a try." As he said that, he was about to break in. Seeing this, Xu Shanghao punched Li Qingcheng on the shoulder.

Xu Shanghao's Xu family is still a powerful force in Jinan Prefecture, but in Li Qingcheng's eyes, it is not enough to see it. His martial arts are just worthy of the four words, which is ordinary.

Li Qingcheng didn't dodge, and clamped his right shoulder.

Bang.

With a muffled groan, Xu Shanghao hit Li Qingcheng's fist, and felt a pain all over his body, as if he was sucked and could not be pulled back. He was shocked, how could this happen? He ignored it and also smashed Li Qingcheng's ribs with his other hand.

Another muffled groan, Li Qingcheng stuck him to his body with the sucking technique of his family's internal skills. If he were against the master, Li Qingcheng would not do this, but he had already seen that Xu Shanghao's martial arts skills were just as good as that.

I don’t know how such martial arts escaped with Yu Jiaxue. Li Qingcheng said to Xiao Jinyan, “Save people.”

Xiao Jinyan flashed and passed by Xu Shanghao. Xu Shanghao said angrily, "Thief, how dare you!"

The inner door opens.

A woman in blue dress was not in a mess, curled up on the bed, and her body was trembling. Where was Yu Jiaxue, she was clearly a woman in a state of dust.

Li Qingcheng asked, "What's the situation?"

Xiao Jinyan sighed, "No."

Li Qingcheng let go of Xu Shanghao, glanced at him, and retreated, "Since you have nothing to do with Yu Jiaxue, why don't you say it directly?"

Xu Shanghao said annoyed, "I said, have you heard it?"

Li Qingcheng smiled bitterly, "What you said in the afternoon is too coincidental to Miss Yu's disappearance, which makes us have to doubt it. Besides, if you say that there are people in the house earlier, we will not have to break through!"

Xiao Jinyan said, "That's right, being a stranger in a foreign land is a waste of a young man without a romantic life. Understand, understand!"

Xu Shanghao said, "I don't owe money or pay for the tickets, what does it have to do with you?" He got up and went to the door, opened the door, "Please."

The two said, "Sorry, I'm disturbing."
