"Of course it's your fault. We don't know what's going on at Third Uncle's place."
Just because I mocked you for fishing, you threatened me with your own uncle!!
Ming Dai was almost convinced, but she didn't expect Ming Jin to threaten her. She was probably really embarrassed. After all, the fish in the two small puddles nearby were all caught by her and Shaoyao.
Ming Dai originally wanted to laugh at the past. But thinking about the large number of people in charge of the rescue, she could only suppress her temper and put on an ugly smile: "Sister is right."
Ming Jin immediately showed pity and said: "Be good."
Shaoyao didn't dare to look at Mingdai's murderous gaze, so she obediently pulled the fishing rod.
"Girl, another one!"
Ming Jin glanced at the fishing rod that seemed to be dead in his hand and pursed his lips.
This is a bit irritating.
Ming Jin lost all face in the hot water while fishing, and the Tengu and others on the other side became more and more nervous and cautious, because they actually followed him all the way out of Linzhou City to a valley to the east.
"Boss, there are so many evil spirits in Linzhou City. I thought they were doing evil in the abandoned city, but I didn't expect that they have a nest in the suburbs. Could it be the Third Master..."
This man did not speak, but spoke with his lips. The Tengu looked at it and waved his hand, signaling everyone to stay down and be careful, because he pointed his finger at the hill in the distance, and saw a tower sentry on the hill.
Everyone's attention was attracted, but they didn't notice the creeping black shadow approaching in the grass behind.
When the rustling sound finally approached, the tengu suddenly pricked up his ears, no, there is someone!
People on both sides suddenly looked at each other and were all surprised.
————————
At dusk, Tengu and others came back and ate hot fish soup and wild wild fowl meat. After eating, they reported the results of the investigation to Ming Jin on the way back.
"If it was the red-robed men, we followed the corpse-bearers to a valley to the east outside the city. Because we saw guards and there were towers on the hills, we didn't dare to get close to avoid being exposed. After lying dormant for a while, we saw someone
A group of men in red robes rode out, I left two of them there to keep an eye on them, and the rest went back to pass the news to you, girl."
Tengu personally led people to keep an eye on the group of corpse bearers because he felt that this group might be related to Xie Li's disappearance. As for the mine operator, he sent another small team to go there.
"I originally thought that we would act separately, but I didn't want to... Master, do you know what happened next?"
Ming Jin raised his eyelids, and the Tengu shuddered. His originally happy mood suddenly faded, "You're too presumptuous."
"Did you guys bump into each other?" Ming Jin originally didn't expect it, but thinking that the two groups of people came back together, and seeing that Tengu was a stable guy but strangely impatient, he was afraid that he might have made a major discovery.
"What the master said was true. We really bumped into each other. I didn't expect those men to actually enter the valley."
Ming Jin felt a little frightened and thought deeply: "It's a mining operation again, and so many people were killed and their bodies were carried away. What kind of store is this, and what kind of business it is."
Ming Dai's face was gloomy, "It does all the evil ways that mortals cannot do. Maybe my father was kidnapped after he discovered these things."
Ming Jin glanced at her and said, "Don't talk nonsense. It's really because of this that Third Uncle is in a bad situation. I think the other party arrested Third Uncle because he has other values."
The former may be killed directly, while the latter may be imprisoned.
Ming Dai also knew that what she expected was not good, so she restrained her breathing and said calmly: "What should we do next?"
"Go back to sleep and wait for the sneak to come to your door."
Ming Jin broke a dead branch on the roadside and broke it again in his hand.
"The people over there are probably aware that we have arrived in Linzhou City, and they are afraid that they will guess that we have traced the area around Poplar Hu Yang Inn. This is their territory. It only takes half a day to find out where we are."
"Now let's see who is faster and more ruthless."
————————
When Ming Jin and the others went back, it was already dark, and they were still the same thin middle-aged man with his whiskers bristling. He was neither enthusiastic nor indifferent. He only said dryly: "The distinguished guest is back? But have you eaten?
"
"Not yet. I'm a little hungry. Do you have anything to eat?" Tengu asked carelessly.
"Yes, how much do you want? I'll let the kitchen arrange it."
"We all want it, let's give it ten cents."
The middle-aged man responded, sent the person upstairs, and then went downstairs to the kitchen.
The tengu went down and stared for a moment, then came back soon, "Alighted?"
"It's gone. I watched them put medicinal powder in the steamed buns and vegetable soup. I'm afraid this bitch has noticed us a long time ago. He already knows that we only eat these things."
This was expected, not surprising, but Shaoyao was still concerned about another thing, "Is there something wrong with the meat in their kitchen...?"
It can't really be human flesh or something.
The Tengu's expression was slightly complicated, and he said tactfully: "It's the meat you don't like to eat in your life anyway."
Got it, thank you for your tact.
Ming Jin didn't care about such side details and just asked: "Does the inn next door have any direct connection with this inn?"
"Nothing has been found yet."
"That...."
After the discussion, everyone went back to their rooms.
The lights were turned off, and the moonlight outside was scattered with silver light. Lying on the bed, Mingdai was a little nervous under the quilt, and her breathing was tight.
"You're scared."
"I don't."
"You were shivering. You didn't know but you thought it was us doing something under the covers."
Simply!
Ming Dai's originally tense mood was suddenly shattered by Ming Jin's irrelevant words, "If you are just trying to coax me, you don't have to say such nasty things to ruin your identity as a legitimate daughter.
"
Ming Jin was taken aback, frowned and said seriously: "That's what I said, there is no other meaning. Why are you talking about naughty things? How do you know so much at such a young age?"
Mingdai: "???"
Ming Jin: "You'd better refrain from paying homage, otherwise I won't be able to tell him about this when I rescue him."
Come, come, my sister-in-law Fan'er is here again.
Ming Dai smelled the light fragrance emanating from the other person in the bed, and rolled her eyes with a look that looked like Ming Yue's but no one could see it.
But she didn't say anything after all. She knew that Ming Jin was not the type to say such funny things unless she wanted to make people happy.
After all, this sister is still afraid that she will feel flustered and sad.
——————
It was late at night, and there were no watchmen in Linzhou City for a long time, but it was extremely quiet this night, and several inns nearby looked like live chickens with their necks pinched.
There was nothing unusual in this inn until the door to the cellar on the first floor opened, and a man wearing a skull mask came into view. This man led a group of people into the hall with a machete and went upstairs, but he did not control his steps, because
There was no sound at all from other rooms.
Then there is a possibility - they were all drugged.
But these people seemed not to be the main target of this inn now. They only quietly approached Ming Jin's room.
The scimitar was inserted into the gap of the door bolt, and the handle of the knife was moved to pry open the bolt block, and it fell to the ground with a thud.
As soon as he opened the door, he faced a tall figure and cut him down with a sword!
Keng!
"Someone!"
"kill!"
The Tengu was the first to kill, and the other doors suddenly opened, and a group of people rushed out to surround and kill the evil inn.
At the entrance to the corridor, flesh and blood were flying everywhere, and the door screen was stained with blood.
Ming Dai directly lifted the quilt and looked directly at the blood. At this time, she was no longer nervous, and her eyes were full of light.
This girl is also courageous. From the time she was suppressed when she first entered Linzhou City, to now she has become more accustomed to it. Ming Jin couldn't help but admire the resilience of the Xie family girl.
But is it over outside?
Ming Jin couldn't help but frown when he moved into the room occupied by Tengu and the others.
Chapter completed!
