a very dark dark guard

Chapter 214 Priceless Address
They waited outside the door for a while, and then knocked on the door. When they heard no movement in the room, they took out a dagger, inserted it through the crack of the door, lifted it up, and opened the door latch.They didn't intend to enter my house, they entered the room of the guards Jia and Tao Abao.

After entering the room, they walked straight towards the bed, reaching out to take Tao Abao away from the guard Jia.

The guards Jia and Tao Abao were stunned and did not react at all.

Tao Abao was taken away by someone who came, and they evacuated immediately after they succeeded.

He didn't know that Tao Abao had my breath on his body. When they took him away, my breath had already penetrated into his body.

I kept a safe distance from them, and they escaped using light skills, running back to the city without stopping.

However, the city gate was closed, so they could only wait in the temporary shelter outside the city gate.

Every day before dawn, there are peddlers who are waiting to open the city gates and enter the city to do business, as well as ordinary people who have nowhere to go after returning late. These people spontaneously set up sheds and simple huts outside the city to avoid the rain in summer. To keep warm in winter, it becomes a small market over time.

There is an 'inn' that provides temporary rest, which is actually a shed surrounded by wooden boards and straw mats, and the beds are also made of stone and wooden boards.

The person who stole Tao Abao went to this kind of inn to rest. Although the inn did not explicitly stipulate that "women are not allowed", the owner and guests all agreed that this was a men's inn.

Because it is a Datong shop, there is no shelter in the middle, and the temporary hawkers often rest shirtless. If women are caught in it, it will be very inconvenient.

I stood guard on the big tree in the distance, not in a hurry to arrest people, I want them to take me to meet the instigator behind the scenes.

This is the county seat of Pinglan County. The city gates open at 04:30 every morning, the vegetable market starts to set up stalls at five o'clock, and almost all the shops are open for business at six or seven o'clock.

The person who stole the child mingled with the crowd and entered the city smoothly.

I put some distance away from them, and waited for them to disappear in the city before I walked towards the city gate.

They confirmed that there was no tail following them, and they entered a house with peace of mind.

I locked the location of the mansion and walked over at a leisurely pace.

Tao Abao has my healing energy in his body, no one can hurt him, so I am not in a hurry and walk slowly.

The person who stole the child handed him over to a woman, and the first thing the woman did after taking over Tao Abao was to take off the longevity lock on the silver collar.

She didn't care about Tao Abao, she put him on the recliner casually, and concentrated on studying the lock.

I controlled the air silk and let Tao Abao continue to fall asleep.

The moment the woman touched Tao Abao, the breath had already taken the opportunity to cling to her body.

I found the octopus brand of Haisha Gang on her body.

This coastal gang is ruthless, and those who join must have their brand branded on their chests.

The brand is very deep, and it will die if you don't raise it well.

The woman is a member of the Haisha Gang, but I have never heard of any connection between the Haisha Gang and Tao Wuye of the Wan Bodyguard Bureau.

There are guards inside and outside the house, I let out my breath, controlled them, and then walked in through the main entrance.

The guards and guards, who were staring but unconscious, turned a blind eye to me.

I walked through the cloister, through the garden, and found the women's room.

She can't move her whole body now, and the longevity lock has been opened.

Her eyes were temporarily blinded, and she wanted to scream but couldn't.

When I opened the door and walked into the room, she was even more terrified, but she couldn't when she wanted to call.

The Longevity Lock was clutched in her hand, and the contents fell to the ground.

It was a small wax pill, and the broken shell could no longer cover the cloth strips inside.

The cloth strip has not been unfolded, and the woman probably hasn't seen it yet.

I picked it up and put it in my arms, picked up Tao Abao and left.

I didn't release Qisi from controlling them until I was out of the city. I left a note for the guard Jia, telling him to wait for us at the tea shed at the crossroads.

That intersection is the only place to go to Huacheng.

It seems that if I don't personally escort them back to the island, there will be accidents on the way.

Because it is the only way to Huacheng, the tea shed business at the crossroads has been very good.

Guard Jia didn't even have a seat. He stood under the tree next to the tea shed and looked around from time to time.

"Here! I'm here! The owner—" He suddenly changed his address, causing the guests in the tea shed to turn their heads and look in my direction.

Tao Abao woke up on the road. The moment he woke up, his eyes were full of panic, and he calmed down when he saw my face.

I've read the words on that little piece of cloth, it's not a big secret, it's an address, the residence of Baye Tao.

Tao Baye made a mistake and had an accident, and became disabled. He quit the magic world, and people soon forgot about him.

Where he lives is no secret worth hiding and digging up.

"Master, have I been stunned? Alas, my master will punish me severely when I go back." Jia, the guard, looked sad.

"They are above you in lightness kung fu. It's normal if you don't notice it. I made you faint on purpose. They won't lead me the way when you wake up."

"The owner is wise!"

"Okay, let's not go back to the island, let's go to a place first."

"Okay, is Tao Qi'er alright?"

"fine."

The guard Jia took Tao Abao and tied it with a cloth belt behind his back, skillfully.

The guard Jia didn't ask me where I was going, but just followed me.

The address on the cloth is a thousand kilometers away from us.

I went into town and bought a carriage, and we drove.

I left a code word for Yunzhou's subordinates in the city, asking him to tell me that the guard Jia and I need to go on a business trip, and our return is to be determined.

We walked very slowly on the section of road in Huacheng. It is a matter of business for the child to go to his relatives, and our market research work is also a matter of business.

Do two things at the same time, neither will delay.

The agricultural products in Huacheng are abundant, and there is no market gap.

Only a few seasonings come from overseas, but the purchasing power of ordinary people is weak, and imported products are expensive. They would rather not eat that flavor than spend a lot of money on seasonings.

We walked and inquired all the way, and the key research was still the medicinal material market.

There are no medicinal fields in Huacheng and surrounding cities, and medicinal materials are still mainly collected.

I have come into contact with several herb collectors, their income is not high, it can even be described as meager.

Often the precious medicinal materials bought with one's life are worth the price of a pig in the hands of drug dealers.

And the drug dealer sold it again, and the price increased by more than ten times.

I asked them why they sold it directly, without looking for a middleman, and the herb picker asked with a wry smile, "Are you foreigners?"

Drug dealers are protected by drug stores, which do not allow unlicensed pharmacies or individuals to sell medicinal materials privately.

Farmers can pick vegetables from their gardens and sell them in the market, and children can fetch two buckets of water from the well or sell them on the street.

However, if you sell the herbs you pick yourself at a stall without the permission of the medicine store, you will be arrested by the government and put in jail.

"There is still a fine!" The old man who picked the medicine shook his head and sighed.

"Because taking medicine indiscriminately will kill people." The guard Jia said that he could understand the government's regulations.

"Dead? People die after taking the medicine from the pharmacy." The herbal picker lowered his voice.

"Why?" Guard Jia's curiosity was aroused again.

"Forget it, forget it, don't talk about it, so as not to cause trouble." The old man who collected medicine was originally sitting under a tree to rest, but when he said this, he packed up the medicine basket and got up to leave.

"Hey? Old man, don't rush to leave. To be honest, my young wife is planning to open a drugstore and is looking for a suitable source of goods. You can introduce me and tell me about the doorway here. It will be noon soon. Let's walk around. Let's go to the restaurant to eat and talk."

The old man refused again and again, unable to withstand the enthusiasm and strength of the guard Jia.

The old man wears a wine gourd around his waist, and he looks like a wine drinker.

The guard Jia focused on the weak point of the old man, saying that if he was invited to dinner, he might not go, and if he was invited to drink, his will would not be so strong.

When they arrived at the restaurant in the town, the guard Jia first ordered Tao Abao some favorite dishes and snacks for the children, then asked Xiaoer to serve some signature dishes, and finally ordered a bottle of the most expensive wine.

The consumption level in the town is not high, and the prices of the most expensive things are not outrageous.

The guard Jia pulled the old man to drink while Tao Abao ate in silence. He knew that his grandfather was dead and we rescued him. He was very stable, so calm and rational that I suspected that he had a psychological problem.

But his life energy group has no change, no distortion, no dark energy transformed, everything is normal.

He is quiet, polite and disciplined.

Sleeping at night and waking up in the morning, he never needs the guard Jia to call him. He goes to bed at a fixed time and wakes up at a fixed time.

I started reciting after breakfast, took a nap after lunch, got up and practiced calligraphy.

The guard Jia found that he was drawing on the ground with a small stick, and thought he was playing. Only when he got closer did he realize that he was practicing calligraphy.

His behavior does not match his nickname at all.

Guard Jia bought him books, pens and paper, and he didn't need to be accompanied or coaxed.

When he finished eating at the dinner table, he sat quietly and listened to the adults talking.

He is very restrained in eating snacks, and he tastes them lightly.

I kind of believe the 'getting smarter' legend.

Although the smart medicine is not in the longevity lock, the effect is particularly obvious.

Tao Abao doesn't look like a four-year-old at all. I would believe that he has the heart of a 40-year-old.

Fortunately, he didn't know all the words, and occasionally asked the guard Jia how to pronounce a certain word and what it meant.

Proof that he's just a smart kid and not taken away.

"Uncle Shan Mao, what did you mean when you said that the medicine in the pharmacy can eat dead people? Tell me about it, and I will pay attention when buying medicine in the future, so that I don't get sick later, and then make trouble after taking it."

We were in a private room in the restaurant, with the door closed, speaking at a normal volume, and the diners in the lobby could not hear clearly.

"What else is there? Fake medicines are fake medicines that are substandard and sold exclusively to the poor. Life-saving money and hard-earned money are all wasted. The medicine is responsible for recovering from illness, and his life is bad for people dying."

"Nobody sued the officer?"

"Sue? What should I sue? How many times have I sued, and the yamen have said that the medicinal materials are real! If you want to win the lawsuit, you have to take this~" Liu Maoshan made a motion to pay.

The guard Jia is not a novice entering the society, so he naturally understands the conflicts of interests behind all this.

"Don't worry, our young lady will never sell fake products when opening a store. The price of medicines from you will definitely be higher than other stores."

I raised my eyebrows slightly, thinking to myself when did I say that?

The persona of a good person and a good businessman was set up for me by them.
