"Where did you get such a good sword?”Zhao Buzhu was dazzled by the Blue Edge Sword. This was the first time he had seen a blue sword.
Zhou Jie snatched the Qingfeng sword and sheathed it.""I found this by accident. It looked pretty good, so I bought it.”
Although Zhou Jie was answering Zhao Buzhu, he paid more attention to Liu Ruoxin. After all, this reason was a bit far-fetched. Fortunately, Liu Ruoxin just frowned and didn't pursue the matter.
"Old Yang, let me see yours too." Zhao Buzhu's curiosity was piqued, and he was about to touch Yang Yuxuan's saber.
Yang Yuxuan was thinking about the origin of the sword in Zhou Jie's hand. Such a special sword should not be unknown.
When Yang Yuxuan came back to his senses, Zhao Buzhu was already in front of the knife and was about to pull it out. Yang Yuxuan hurriedly moved the knife away and stopped Zhao Buzhu with his eyes.
Zhao Buzhu rolled his eyes in disdain and pointed at the hilt of his saber."Old Yang, you've been fooled. The gemstone on the hilt of the sword has fallen.”
"You don't understand!" Yang Yuxuan treasured this saber very much and never let anyone touch it. As soon as he said that, Yang Yuxuan realized that he was too excited just now. He found an excuse and said,"This is an antique."
Zhou Jie shook his head speechlessly. This excuse was even more ridiculous than his own.
After some wrangling, the few of them finally decided to set off. However, things did not go as they wished. As soon as they took a step, two constables stopped them.
"Which one of you is Liu Ruoxin?" One of the constables asked. However, his stutter was so serious. Was it really okay for him to be a constable?
Liu Ruoxin knew she was in trouble as soon as she saw the constable. She blocked Chen Anan's acupuncture point and pointed at her, saying,""She is."
Seeing that they had found her, the stuttering constable said to Chen Anan,""Liu, Liu Ruoxin, you're suspected of child trafficking. Come with us to the yamen.”
"Sir, I am Liu Ruoxin's friend.”Liu Ruoxin put Chen Anan's finger back and said,""She caught a cold and can't speak. As for this child, it's the child of my second aunt's grandmother's third uncle's uncle's son, so it definitely wasn't abducted. You can ask her if you don't believe me."
Zhou Jie and the others were dumbfounded. Liu Ruoxin was getting better and better at lying. She was indeed a spy. She didn't even need to draft a draft when she lied.
"Little kid, where did you come from?”If the stuttering constable really went to ask Tong Tong, did he not think that Liu Ruoxin was really abducting a child? Since he was allowed to ask, they must have discussed it beforehand. How could he ask so easily?
As expected, Tong Tong nodded cooperatively and even raised his feet to show the constables the words on his shoes.
The constable said with a "I knew it" expression,"Yes, it matches! There had already been four or five cases of missing children in Spring Breeze Town. Someone reported to us that the female manager of Tianhe Medical Center had brought in a child of unknown origin, so we came to investigate.”
"What the hell! Our shopkeeper is Chen Anan. You must be mistaken.”
The bailiff seemed to understand something after hearing Zhao Buzhu's words. He pointed at Liu Ruoxin and said,""Then you must be Chen, Chen Anan! It's you. Come, come with us.”
Liu Ruoxin really didn't expect things to turn out like this. There were only two women at the scene. She had just said that Chen Anan was her, but now, Chen Anan was her.
Zhou Jie was amused by this constable. He tried hard to hold back his laughter, and his body kept trembling.
Liu Ruoxin wasn't called the No.1 Master of West Military Camp for nothing. She was furious when she found Zhou Jie secretly laughing.
"I'm about to be taken away now, and you're still smiling.”The more Liu Ruoxin thought about it, the angrier she got. She stretched out her hand and twisted Zhou Jie's waist.
This time, Zhou Jie's joy turned into sorrow. He was holding back his laughter just now, but now he was holding back his pain. It seemed that this move was indeed imprinted in every woman's soul. She was simply self-taught.
"Milords, wait a moment." Zhou Jie didn't know that Liu Ruoxin was angry. For the sake of the future, he forced a smile and blocked the two bailiffs,"Sir, this is really a misunderstanding. That child is really our relative and came to stay for two days. We were just about to send her back!”
" This…" The constable started to hesitate. After all, what Zhou Jie and the others said made sense. He really didn't know who to listen to.
Seeing that it was effective, Zhou Jie quickly took out some silver and stuffed it into the hands of the stuttering constable. He asked,"May I ask who told you that we abducted children?”
"Isn't your opposite Jishi Hall? The boss of Jishi Hall reported the case.”As the saying goes, that person was soft-hearted. After receiving the silver, the constable immediately betrayed Gou Shangren.
This time, everyone understood. They looked at the Hall of the World together. As expected, Gou Shangren was lying on the balcony watching the show!
Gou Shangren saw that Zhou Jie and the others had already discovered him. He hurriedly stood up and pretended that nothing had happened, wanting to escape into the house. However, he was too hasty and accidentally knocked into the door.
"Your Excellency, it is said that people of the same trade are enemies. The Save the World Hall has never been on good terms with our Tianhe Medical Hall. This time, he must have framed us. At the same time, he was punished for making a false report and disrupting the normal judicial order.”
Of course, Zhou Jie said the last sentence very softly. He also gave the bailiff a look that said," You know what I mean."
The constable understood and laughed."You, you are indeed smart. We, we still have things to do, so we'll leave first.”
As expected, the constable understood Zhou Jie's meaning. He turned around and wanted to walk towards the Hall of Saving the World. It seemed that Gou Shangren was going to spend money to avoid disaster.
Zhou Jie gloated and said,"Alright, we can set off now.”With that, he turned around and left.
Liu Ruoxin and Yang Yuxuan also left, leaving Zhu Yipin and Zhao Buzhu, who did not know kung fu, standing there motionless.
Fortunately, Liu Ruoxin didn't use too much strength when she hit Chen Anan, and it didn't take long for Chen Anan's acupoint to be unsealed by itself. However, due to this delay, by the time Zhu Yipin and the other two arrived at the dock, Zhou Jie and the others had already been waiting for a long time.
Zhou Jie and the others arrived first, but as long as the boatman said he wanted to go to Spring Wind Town, the boatman shook his head and refused to go. After all, Spring Breeze Town always lost children. The people in the town were spreading the rumor that the little ghost was looking for a substitute. It made people panic and no one dared to go.
In the end, Liu Ruoxin used money to persuade the boatman, and the boatman's wife persuaded him to wait for Zhu Yipin and the other two to arrive before boarding the ship.
Perhaps the heavens were helping them, but the journey was peaceful. They were about to reach Spring Wind Town in two days.
At this moment, the sky had just brightened, and everyone was still sleeping soundly.
"My child!" The wife of the boatman wailed and woke everyone up.
Zhou Jie patted his head regretfully. He had slept too soundly and had forgotten that Yao Si 'niang would come to snatch the child.
Zhou Jie hurriedly chased after her. He used his Golden Goose Technique to its full extent and followed closely behind Yao Si 'niang.
Seeing this, Liu Ruoxin and Yang Yuxuan also ran their Lightness Skills to catch up. However, Zhu Yipin, you don't know martial arts, so why are you meddling? You don't know qinggong, but you still jump out. Drinking a few mouthfuls of water is considered letting you off.
When Liu Ruoxin and Yang Yuxuan arrived, Zhou Jie had already started fighting with Yao Siniang. However, Zhou Jie did not dare to pull out his sword for fear of hurting the child. Without the help of the Qingfeng Sword, the power of his sword technique was reduced by 30 to 40%. He was not Yao Si 'niang's match. Fortunately, Yao Si 'niang was delirious, causing her to be unable to unleash her full strength. That was why Zhou Jie was entangled with her.
Liu Ruoxin took the initiative to block Yao Siniang's palm.
With Liu Ruoxin's help, Zhou Jie's pressure was greatly reduced. He took some time to shout at Yang Yuxuan,""Old Yang, we'll hold him back. You find a chance to save the child.”
Yang Yuxuan nodded and looked at Yao Siniang intently, looking for an opportunity.
Although Yao Si 'niang was already delirious, her maternal instinct made her protect her child tightly. She only used her right hand to block Zhou Jie and Liu Ruoxin's attacks.
Yao Si 'niang instinctively knew that she was no match for him, so she turned around and wanted to escape. Zhou Jie seized this opportunity and stabbed Yao Si 'niang's back with the scabbard.
Yao Si 'niang was hit hard and fell forward, unable to hold the child anymore.
Yang Yuxuan saw the child fall from Yao Siniang's arms and hurriedly went forward to catch the child.
When the child fell, Zhou Jie and Liu Ruoxin were also very anxious. After all, once such a small child fell to the ground, he would definitely lose his life. It was only when Yang Yuxuan caught the child that the two of them felt relieved. However, when they turned around, they realized that Yao Si 'niang had already disappeared.
Zhou Jie and the other two returned the child to the boatman couple. The couple thanked him profusely and wanted to kneel down. Zhou Jie hurriedly helped them up and persuaded them for a long time before they gave up the idea.
"Ding! [Mission completed: Save the child.]
[Reward: 60 Chivalry Points. Please pay attention to receiving it.]”
Zhou Jie really didn't expect to have such an unexpected reward. He was pleasantly surprised and kept the reward at the same time.
Everyone disembarked and walked into Spring Wind Town.
"This Spring Breeze Town is neither big nor small. I think we should split up and ask around.”Zhou Jie had told Chen Anan to do it as soon as possible before he came, in case Chen Anan got impatient and took it out on him.
Chen Anan had been waiting for this moment for a long time. As soon as Zhou Jie finished speaking, he left with Zhu Yipin. As for the remaining people, Zhou Jie was naturally grouped with Liu Ruoxin and Tongtong. No matter how unwilling Zhao Buzhu was, he could only be grouped with Yang Yuxuan.
The three groups of people asked around in Spring Breeze Town for the whole morning. By the time they met up, it was already noon.
Zhu Yipin and Yang Yuxuan didn't seem to be in high spirits. It seemed like they didn't get anything. Zhou Jie's group went to the shoe store in Spring Breeze Town, but no one knew Tong Tong.
"According to the owner of the shoe store, Tong Tong's shoes were custom-made for a young master last year. Because of the special fabric, he remembered them very clearly.”Zhou Jie took a bite of the steamed bun. He had been running around the whole morning asking people questions. He was really hungry.
"I know. This child is a thief.”Zhao Buzhu thought that he had found the answer. He had never liked Tong Tong, and now he hated her even more. He took a few steps back, afraid that he would have anything to do with her.
Liu Ruoxin looked at Zhao Buzhu discontentedly and said,""That young master died last year, so these shoes are mourning shoes.”
Zhu Yipin, Zhao Buzhu, and Chen Anan were all shocked by the unbelievable words. Coupled with the legend of the ghost child that they had heard in the morning, they started to look at Tong Tong in fear.
