Confused country poison concubine

Chapter 516: If something is abnormal, it is a demon (4)
She didn't expect Zhou Yu to be able to find such a deep place, so she couldn't help feeling that he had indeed grown faster than she expected, and he could completely handle it alone.

Now that she heard Zhou Yu's conjecture, she was almost certain in her heart that this prisoner must be Mantra Palace.

But why did the Mantra Palace take these girls away?

The rat hesitated for a while, and then said: "My subordinates have two questions. First, they abducted the child to become a soul boy. Then, could the abducted girl be used as a saint or handmaid, but I have never heard of it. What kind of saint is there in the Mantra Palace?"

"Secondly, the Ministry of Criminal Justice has already sent people to garrison Tianning Temple, but there has been no progress. Some of us have also sneaked into Tianning Temple to steal temple records, but except for those monks who are handsome, we have not noticed the monks inside. What's the problem with them?"

Zhou Yu heard the words, his eyes cleared and he said: "This is not necessarily the case. The people in the Ministry of Punishment couldn't find anything, because they didn't suspect that it was a problem with the temple at all, but suspected that it was a problem with pilgrims. If we continue to investigate this time, maybe it will be a problem." Now we can know the purpose of the Mantra Palace to capture those girls."

Qiu Yebai nodded, and curled the corners of his lips: "We will prepare right away, Zhou Yu, you are in charge of drawing up the plan, and the rats will work together."

Zhou Yu was taken aback for a moment, hesitating a bit: "Senior seat, how can I draw up a plan?"

The rat was also stunned: "Second seat..."

She looked at them and smiled: "I trust you, Zifei, Rat."

In the big case last time, she almost planned all the plans by herself, but this time, she wanted to see how far Zifei and Rat could go.

The two glanced at each other, and both saw excitement in the other's eyes, and then they all raised their hands together: "Yes, this subordinate will definitely not disgrace!"

But when Zhou Yu and Rat were formulating and perfecting the detective plan together, Xiao Caicai suddenly sent back a special news.

A friend of a dandy in a brothel by the Jinshui River told him that a dilapidated boat nearby seemed to be closed for business recently. Although lanterns were occasionally hung at night, yellow lanterns were hung every time to indicate that it was full.

She felt a little strange, there was only a middle-aged lady and the boatman living in the picture boat. The woman was old and decrepit, she only played the pipa well, but it was a problem to eat often, how could it be suddenly full every day?

And she also noticed that the boatman was a lot more generous when purchasing recently, and he was not at all like the stingy one before.

The news wasn't particularly unusual at first, but after Xiao Caicai heard it, she fell in love with it for no reason.

So I went to keep an eye on the painting boat myself, and after two days of stalking, I found that it was indeed the case, and what they bought every day was enough to feed at least three to four people. The boatman and the pipa lady both looked sneaky.

In other words, there must be other people on the boat, but they didn't show up.

When Xiao Youcai was about to go back home to tell Qiu Yebai the news, she suddenly found a somewhat worn-out little coat thrown out of the boat.

Little Rapese's heart moved, and someone immediately fished it out. When he opened it, he found that there was a flower-and-bird-shaped word 'Chang' embroidered on it.

Qiu Yebai looked at the little clothes brought back by Xiao Youcai, and his heart sank: "Could it be that the person locked up in the boat is—Miss Chang?"

Chang Qinghuan - Duke Chang's most beloved granddaughter, and Earl Chang's first daughter.

If this is the case, then would they be wrong in thinking that the Palace of Mantras is a prisoner at first, and all their reasoning is wrong?

No matter how you look at this low-level method of being locked in a painting boat, it looks like ordinary kidnappers would do it.

Everyone hesitated, Qiu Yebai thought for a while, and then made up her mind with Zhou Yu and Rat, she made up her mind, and grabbed her small clothes: "No matter what, Huafang still needs to be investigated. What is suspicious at this time? Nothing can be missed.”

If you can find Chang Qinghuan, the person involved, all your doubts will be solved!

Now that Qiu Yebai had made his decision, Zhou Yu immediately put down the original plan in his hand and changed it to a round-up plan.

After he and the rat calculated all the accidents, they immediately started to arrange.

In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the action time was set at the night of the second day.

Or rather Dawn.

The matter is very important, for the sake of confidentiality, only Qiu Yebai, Zhou Yu, Rat, Da Zhuang, and Xiao Caicai, who recently participated in these matters, knew about this operation, and did not inform other dudes.

The second day was night.

The moonlight gradually slanted to the west, and a layer of gray light gradually appeared on the horizon.

At dawn, it was the time when people were most sleepy, and even the watchman was a little wobbly when he walked.

The banks of the Jinshui River have also fallen into silence, and the busiest painting boats have all finished work. On the middle of the Jinshui River, a somewhat dilapidated small painting boat docked quietly on the bank. It was pitch black and there was no one there.

So naturally, no one noticed that after a gust of cold wind blew past, a few faint figures suddenly appeared near the boat, silently touching the small painting boat.

Xiao Youcai looked at the small painting boat, clenched the knife in her hand, a thin layer of sweat dripped from her palm, and trembled slightly.

The rat patted him on the shoulder, and then stood in front of him. Xiao Youcai looked at his not-so-generous back, and suddenly his hands stopped shaking.

He gritted his teeth, stepped forward and carefully touched the boat with the rat. The small boat shook a few times, but did not make the abnormal sound of the water waves that he was worried about. He was instantly relieved and looked at the big boat. Mouse smiled.

Before the rat could nod its head, its face suddenly changed drastically, and it suddenly kicked Xiao Cai Cai's stomach, kicking him into the water all at once.

Xiao Caicai didn't know what happened until he fell into the water and saw a knife still shining coldly in the misty sky where he was standing just now.

"Plop!" The sound of the small rapeseed falling into the water was extremely loud in the dark night, instantly ending the calm of the river.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!" After kicking down the small rapeseed, the rat raised his hand and made three moves with the masked man who suddenly jumped out of the boat.

But every time he made a move, he found that there was a gap in strength between himself and that person. The knife that the person chopped off directly made his tiger's mouth numb, and almost burst open!
He took a few steps back, watching the other side's silent horizontal knife slashing at his head again.

If he couldn't catch the knife, or jumped into the river, he'd probably be cut in half right on the head.

As soon as the rat gritted its teeth, it suddenly dropped the knife, bent down, and ran towards the man like a big mouse.

If he is injured and can capture that person, then he will be injured. In short, he can't let that person get into the cabin and grab the kidnapped girl as a hostage.
