Chapter 119 Darkness under the lamp

(Thanks to book friend Rou Zhihu for giving another 100 coin reward~)

Han Dainian was the head of the inspection department, and his words were the golden rules in the eyes of those clerks.

Soon a clerk came to Han Dainian with a thick booklet.

Han Dainian ordered him to put the booklet on the public case, and then turned to Qi Baoguo and smiled and said, "Mr. Hundred Houses, all the people who entered and left the city yesterday have been recorded in this booklet."

After saying that, he dipped his right index finger and spitted it out and opened the booklet.

"The carriages and horses are registered separately. Please look here, Lord Qi."

Han Dainian pointed with his finger: "Yesterday, a total of 65 horsemen entered the city and 57 horsemen left the city. As for the carriage..."

"There is no need to read the carriage. I will ask you, are all the people riding horses out of the city recorded here?"

Han Dainian nodded repeatedly and said yes.

Qi Baoguo took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "Okay, please ask someone to inform these people one by one to come to the inspection department for questioning. If there are any disobedients, they will be arrested directly!"

The public security of Jiangling County is jointly responsible by the county yamen runners and the inspection department. The inspection department is also in charge of the task of arresting thieves, so of course it can arrest suspicious people.

In Qi Baoguo's opinion, as long as these people are in a state of mind, there is no reason to refuse the orders of the inspection department.

"this......"

Han Dainian looked embarrassed.

"What, is there any dilemma in Inspection Han?"

Qi Baoguo stared at Han Danian with sharp eyes, which scared him so much that he waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no. The official will do it now."

Qi Baoguo nodded with satisfaction.

Humph, he believed that these people must have followed Ning Xiu out of the city, otherwise it would be impossible to take action as soon as possible.

With this list, he called all the people riding out of the city to question him, and he believed that he would be able to find some clues.

It is impossible for these people to fly out of the city with wings, right?

......

......

A basin of cold water poured on Ning Xiu's face, and Ning Xiu woke up with a tremor.

"Hmph, your mouth is really tight. If you stick to the third-level additional officer and don't speak, aren't you afraid of being suffocated to death?"

Ning Xiu's lips raised slightly and he joked: "You dare not kill me. If you kill me, you will never get the account book."

"you!"

Chu Wanglun was choked by Ning Xiu's words and was indisputable.

Yes, that account book is his biggest weakness. As long as the account book is not obtained, he will be helpless against Ning Xiu.

"Hmph, don't think that you only know where the account book is. If I really want to find him or her, I will send more people to find him or her. The places you have been in are just that, at worst, I will ask someone to dig three feet into the ground. Do you think you can't find it? It's just taking more time."

After a moment of pause, Chu Wanglun picked up Ning Xiu's chin and said coldly: "If you tell me where the account book is now, I might be able to consider spareing your life."

"Pooh!"

Ning Xiu spat and spitted on Chu Wanglun's face, which completely angered Chu Wanglun. He slapped Ning Xiu in the face.

"You don't know the things you lift. If you want to play, okay, then I'll have fun with you!"

Ning Xiu sneered in his heart. How could the grudge between him and Chu Wanglun be easily resolved? Not to mention that the account book seemed to involve the masses.

If he really handed over the account book as Chu Wanglun said, he would definitely be silenced immediately.

Living? This is absolutely impossible.

This Chu Wanglun is just cheating the child.

"Come on, pour salt into his nose, damn it!"

Chu Wanglun was so angry that he could only hope to force Ning Xiu to submit in this way.

Immediately, two people stepped forward, one of them pressed Ning Xiu's head and lifted it up, and the other one brought a bowl of salt water into Ning Xiu's nose.

Ning Xiu was choked and coughed. The two of them laughed and chatted in a language that Ning Xiu could not understand at all.

However, Ning Xiu heard a few words in the severe cough, which were Japanese!

Ning Xiu also watched some TV series in his previous life, and he still knows some commonly used Japanese words.

These two people were clearly talking in Japanese.

What's going on? How could the Japanese appear in Jingzhou, and how could they get together with Chu Wanglun and Lu Youan?

Before he could think too much, he poured another bowl of salt water, which made Ning Xiu cough violently.

......

......

Soon, Qi Baoguo locked the target from the fifty-seven people who rode out of the city yesterday.

Eighteen people rode out of the city together, and not long before sunset.

This is very consistent with the time when Ning Xiu and Ling'er agreed to meet in Phoenix Mountain.

What made Qi Baoguo even more excited was that some soldiers guarding the city gate recalled that those people probably headed towards Phoenix Mountain after leaving the city.

At this time, the minor officials of the inspection department also came back and reported that these servants from the Lu Mansion had not returned until now after riding horses out of the city.

What does this mean? At least it means that they are extremely suspicious.

Now Qi Baoguo cannot be sure that it was Ning Xiu who was kidnapped by these people, but at least there were clues.

He immediately called all the veterans of the Qi family army, transferred dozens of people from the inspection department, and rode out of the city with Qi Ling'er and headed straight for Phoenix Mountain.

Qi Baoguo felt a little guilty. He had not stepped on the point from the beginning. He thought that Ning Xiu was missing in Phoenix Mountain, so the bandits who hijacked him would not continue to let him stay in Phoenix Mountain. He ordered the veterans of the Qi family army to lead the Zhang family servants to search all night but did not search for Phoenix Mountain.

Now it seems that it is very likely that it is dark under the light.

The more dangerous the place, the safer the place.

Thinking with normal logic, no one would have thought that these people would continue to stay in Phoenix Mountain.

Fortunately, he woke up not too late, so it should be too late!

Qi Baoguo did not contact the government and did not use the local garrison troops.

First of all, it is not necessarily a good thing to have a large number of people. If the orders are not consistent, it will cause trouble for him.

Secondly, there is no time left. When everyone notified him, Ning Xiu might be in danger.

There are more than a dozen veterans of the Qi family army here, and Qi is very confident in serving the country.

Sometimes the number of troops is not decisive, and organizational discipline is also important.

Qi Ling'er was anxious at the moment. Ning Xiu must be very scared now, right? She was all bad, so she insisted on asking him to go to Phoenix Mountain to say goodbye. Can't you make the words clear in the city?

Now that Ning Xiu is being kidnapped, if there is a difference between two people, Qi Ling'er will never forgive him for his whole life.

"drive!"

Qi Ling'er shook another whip, clamped her legs and rushed to the front of the queue.

Ning Xiu, hold on, I'm here!

You are mine, and no one can touch you except me!

......

......

ps: Is this last sentence domineering? Hehe. After all, he is a general and tiger girl. Experts can tell if there is any problem. Ning Xiu is in danger, so how can Miss Qi stand by and watch?

The most exciting part is coming, please look forward to it.
Chapter completed!
