Chu Si and Li Yanqing's pupils shrank slightly, their faces collapsed, and their brows were slightly furrowed.
Chu Si grabbed the waiter's arm and asked, "Are you serious?"
Li Yanqing on the side also stared at the waiter in front of him, waiting for his answer.
"Of course it's true. How dare I joke about such a thing?"
The waiter didn't dare to hesitate, and without even taking a few breaths, he hurriedly took out a letter and a throwing knife from his sleeve.
This kind of thing, where one could lose their life if they are not careful, cannot be taken lightly.
Chu Si took the envelope from the waiter almost instantly, opened it and saw the answer in his mind was confirmed.
Ning Wan and Shen Jingze were actually kidnapped.
But why did you send the letter today?
Chu Si's mind uncontrollably thought of the scene where Ning Wan escaped and was caught again.
It must have reached a point of no return that had no choice but to ask him for help.
Thinking of this, Chu Si's hands tightened again and again.
Li Yanqing, who was standing on the side, also frowned tightly, having already seen what was written on the note.
"Not long after the general left, I heard a noise outside the inn. I went out to see, and saw the flying knife nailing the note to the wooden door."
"When I saw the note, I realized that you two still didn't know, so I quickly chased after you."
The waiter's breathing slowly calmed down, and he looked at the two people in front of him and explained nervously.
Li Yanqing took the flying knife from the waiter's hand and looked at it. He glanced at the waiter again and said coldly, "Are there bandits here?"
Hearing this, the waiter's heartbeat slowed down a bit, but he knew that this matter could not be concealed, so he nodded.
"Indeed, there is one, and it's on the mountainside fifty miles east of this town."
The waiter said this and pointed to the east.
For a moment, Chu Si and Li Yanqing both looked in the direction the waiter pointed.
"Why don't you report it to the authorities?"
The next second, Li Yanqing asked almost subconsciously.
The waiter was stunned for a moment, then said in a very weak voice: "...No, it's useless. The government can't control it, and can't defeat those bandits."
If reporting to the police would have been helpful, this kind of thing wouldn't have happened.
What's more, their place is far away from Luoping, and the government will not report it, so this kind of thing will end up in nothing.
"Can't beat him?"
Li Yanqing's tone was filled with great displeasure, but he was pulled away by Chu Si who was standing beside him.
"Big Brother, now is not the time to dwell on these things. Let's go and rescue Junior Sister."
Chu Si's tone was a little urgent, and half of his body had turned towards Chaoshan, ready to go there at any time.
The waiter saw that there was nothing to do with him and was afraid that he would be implicated, so he ran back in a hurry.
Li Yanqing quickly grabbed Chu Si by the collar and said, "Chu Si, that's fifty miles, not five miles."
Chu Si froze and looked at Li Yanqing, with no idea in his mind.
"Go back to the inn and get the horses. What are you standing there for?"
Li Yanqing looked at Chu Si, who didn't know what to do at the critical moment, and sighed.
Hearing this, Chu Si suddenly realized and hurried back to the inn.
…
The other side.
Ning Wan imagined what would happen when she woke up.
The first one: Shen Jingze lied, and she was still imprisoned in the Temple of Gods.
The second: Shen Jingze lied and locked her up in another place.
The third option: Shen Jingze finds his conscience and takes her down the mountain to successfully reunite with his fourth brother and eldest brother.
The only thing she never thought was that Shen Jingze would take her with him to the bandit's lair in order to prevent himself from being exposed.
No, it should be that he walked into the trap and became a hostage.
Not long ago, after waking up from a coma, Ning Wan saw a woodshed that was so unfamiliar that it couldn't be more unfamiliar.
Yes, it’s the woodshed.
Ning Wan felt insulted in some way.
Especially when he realized that only his hands were tied behind his back.
You really look down on her. Aren't you worried at all that she might run away?
Ning Wan's mouth twitched slightly, and she looked at Shen Jingze, who was lying beside her with his eyes closed, without any pressure, and forced a smile:
"Xiao Qi, would you like to explain?"
[Host, you may not believe this, but the male protagonist did it on purpose.]
Xiao Qi, who lived in Ning Wan's sea of consciousness, did not miss the opportunity to complain. When he saw his host waking up, there was a hint of gloating in his tone that was difficult to conceal.
Ning Wan was silent. If her hands weren't tied, she would really want to pick her ears to see if there was something wrong with them.
"You say it, I believe it."
These four short words gave Xiaoqi enough confidence.
[Host, the protagonist encountered bandits at the foot of the mountain.]
[However, the bandits couldn't have spotted the hero from where he was standing. It was only because he deliberately walked out that the current situation occurred.]
Ning Wan nodded slightly, her wrist struggling tentatively.
After making sure that she couldn't break free with brute force, Ning Wan slowly bent her knees and stood up.
Ning Wan came to Shen Jingze effortlessly.
He raised his foot and touched Shen Jingze's calf, hoping to wake him up.
After all, it was thanks to him that she got into the den of thieves. She couldn't be the only one to suffer.
“Mr. Shen?”
Ning Wan tried to speak again, but Shen Jingze, who was sitting on the ground leaning against the pile of firewood, did not react at all.
