Chapter 89 Interrogation of Lao Zang
Halfway through his speech, he realized that he had said something wrong and his voice gradually weakened.
Liang He also frowned and looked over, asking him to be more careful with his words.
Chang Wu slapped his lips twice, feeling very sorry, and then said flatteringly: "Don't mind it, I just didn't think it through..."
Wen Baolu shook his head, looking a little out of sorts, his voice sounding light and fluttery:
"You're right. This incident was indeed caused by me. However, I have come up with a plan. As long as I show up, those people will definitely take action again. Then you can find Luo Xiao and Bao Zhong..."
Chang Wu's expression immediately darkened: "What if those people really kill us?"
He is usually a very smart person, but what a stupid idea he came up with.
"But I can't care about so many things!" Wen Baolu suddenly broke down and yelled.
Whenever he thought that Baozhong might be suffering, he wanted to rush out and find those people immediately.
"Calm down!" Chang Wu patted his shoulder and soothed him, "I know you're worried, but there's no point in being worried. We don't know where they are, so for now, let's wait for Madam Zhu to come back before discussing..."
At this moment, the waiter knocked on the door and said, "Gentlemen, someone is looking for you outside."
Chang Wu's face lit up with joy: "Could it be that Madam Zhu has returned?"
But they were disappointed.
After going downstairs, Liang He looked at the men in official uniforms in front of him. He had some guesses in his mind, but still asked, "Who are they?"
One of the tall, thin men stepped forward and bowed. "Sir Liang, I am Liu Xiao. The governor has ordered us to assist you in investigating the disappearance of the criminal Luo Xiao."
Liang He and others looked at each other. Didn’t they just ignore them?
Now someone has been sent.
There is always light at the end of the tunnel!
…
Coming to Liushu Hutong again, Wen Baolu hoped very much that they could find out something.
Even his hiding in the cellar and his uncle's death were explained one by one.
Liu Xiao's expression was indifferent after hearing this, but thinking of Liang He in the house, he specially sent two people down to investigate.
A moment later, two officers climbed out of the cellar: "Sir, nothing was found."
Liang He and Chang Wu also walked out of the house, finding nothing.
Liu Xiao looked at Wen Baolu again, his face serious: "Can you provide any other clues? There is nothing unusual in this yard as you mentioned, and there is no body!"
Wen Baolu's eyes were red. "But Luo Xiao said my uncle was in trouble. I believe him, sir..."
Liu Xiao raised his hand to stop him: "No need to repeat it, I already know. If there are no other clues, I will return to the government office to report to the Lord..."
"No!" Wen Baolu shouted anxiously.
He looked around, his eyes wandering, trying frantically to find something to prove that what he said was true.
"Over there, the people in that yard, they are the ones who kidnapped Luo Xiao and my brother." His eyes fell on the yard next door, and his face lit up with joy.
His lips trembled rapidly, repeatedly telling himself to stay calm and make them believe him.
Maybe the more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes, so he wanted to pull the person over.
Liu Xiao dodged sideways, frowning slightly.
I always feel that the other party is a little abnormal at this time. Could it be that he is just framing others just to find someone?
not to mention……
Your Excellency may not have authorized the search of other places.
He said calmly, "I need to report this to the governor before making a decision!"
After saying that, he turned around and was about to leave.
Wen Baolu hurriedly grabbed the other person's sleeve and said, "Sir, I swear on my life, if they really have problems, please be flexible..."
Liu Xiao frowned and pushed the other person away: "How dare you! The governor sent me here because of Lord Liang's favor. Master Wen, I hope you can sober up."
After saying that, he nodded slightly to Liang He, then said to his men, "Let's go."
"Sir Liu." Wen Baolu chased after him and tried to tangle with him. Two officers drew their swords in a threatening gesture. Chang Wu quickly stood in front of him and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. He's just too anxious. Please don't be offended!"
Watching Liu Xiao and others walk away, Wen Baolu could no longer bear it. He squatted on the ground, holding his head with his hands, and his shoulders shook slightly.
He only has his brother as a relative now. If something happens again...
Wen Baolu couldn't imagine how he would live without his younger brother.
…
At the prefectural governor's mansion, Liang Zongwu listened to his subordinates' responses and said indifferently, "If they didn't find anything, then they didn't find anything. He lost the person, so what does it have to do with us?"
Even if His Majesty holds him accountable, he won’t be held responsible!
He added, "Okay, go down."
Liu Xiao retreated respectfully: "Yes!"
At this time, Liang Zongwu did not take this matter to heart.
In his opinion, it was just the loss of a member of the Luo family, even if he died, so what?
But because of this neglect, he and the entire Liang family paid a heavy price!
…
At this time, Lao Zang left the city and headed directly north.
Zhu Mingqing followed behind and saw a village hidden in the mountains and forests appear in front of him.
This courtyard covers a large area, the walls are gray, and there is no guard at the door.
And behind it are deep mountains and old forests, which are deep, quiet and seldom populated.
Lao Zang straightened his clothes and was about to knock on the door to go in when his eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Zhu Mingqing clapped his hands and brought the person into the space.
Pour a basin of water down——
“Ahem…”
Old Zang suddenly woke up and saw towering trees that reached the sky, blocking out the sun. It looked eerie and a little scary.
"woke up?"
A pleasant female voice came to his ears again. He turned his head, his pupils widened: "Who are you?"
Zhu Mingqing wore a veil on his head, and a cold voice came from inside: "If you want to live, answer my questions honestly."
Old Zang was no longer threatened. Just as he was about to stand up, he felt a numbness all over his body and was unable to move at all.
A look of horror crossed his face. "What did you do to me?"
Zhu Mingqing went up to him and patted his face. He helped him lean against a tree and sat down opposite him. "Come, tell me, what does that village do and who lives there?"
"Who are you?" Old Zang looked around and threatened, "Let me go quickly, or the patriarch will not let you go..."
Zhu Mingqing sneered and snapped his fingers. Old Zang felt as if something was flowing through his body and the pain was unbearable.
His lips were crooked and he trembled as he said, "Stop... I... I'll say it."
Zhu Mingqing waved his hand, and the little world spirit stopped again.
"You have to untie me first, I can't move..." His eyes rolled around, looking for a way to escape.
How could Zhu Mingqing not know what he was up to, so he carried the man to the edge of the cliff. The north wind was howling, making people's cheeks hurt, but the veil on Zhu Mingqing's cheek did not move at all.
Seeing this scene, Lao Zang knew that he had met a master.
She said lightly, "There's no third chance. If you still refuse to tell me, I'll give you your life!"
