Tang Dynasty detective

Chapter 434 Bravely Rescue Little Lolita

The man was ripping off the girl's clothes, when he heard the shout behind him, he was startled.

Almost at the same time the man reacted, Li Canghai swung his sword and slashed over.

With a scoff, the sharp sword drew a bloodstain on the man's back, and he spat out a mouthful of blood with a wow, then rolled on the ground and fled quickly towards the bamboo forest.

Li Canghai cursed angrily, but the man ran away very fast, he didn't even turn his head, it could be said that seeing the situation was not good, he ran away.

Li Canghai didn't go after him, he took off his long gown, put it on the weeping girl lying on the ground, and comforted him: "Don't worry, girl, I've chased away the thief, you're safe."

The girl was so frightened that her face turned pale and she wept endlessly.

"Girl, are you okay?" Li Canghai asked earnestly.

The girl shook her head while crying, she was tightly wrapped in Li Canghai's gown, crying bitterly.

Li Canghai let out a breath, he looked at the girl, and secretly called luck in his heart, fortunately he came in time, the thief was only tearing at the girl's clothes, and had no time to intrude in the future.

"Don't be afraid, girl, I'm not a bad person. Do you recognize Maomao, Linlin, and Qiu Qiu?" Li Canghai asked after the girl's emotions stabilized.

The girl wiped her tears, trembling, and asked cautiously, "You... who are you?"

Li Canghai comforted: "My name is Li Canghai. I was rescued by Mao Mao on Yingzhou Island yesterday. I came here because I had something to do, so Yan Nanfei and the others asked me to help find their partner."

"Do you...really know Maomao and the others?" The girl asked with a slight trembling body.

Li Canghai thought for a while, then handed the bronze sword in his hand to the girl and said, "You are their partner, you should recognize this sword. This is what they gave me for self-defense. If you don't believe me, girl, you can see it for yourself."

The girl took the long sword and only glanced at it before she nodded to Li Canghai: "My lord, I believe in you."

Li Canghai nodded slightly, and said, "Girl, what's your name? I heard from Yan Nanfei that you and another partner came here to look for a doctor named Xu. Why are you alone?"

"My...my name is Wanyu, and the person who came with me is named Shangguanmao. I was a little worried because Dr. Xu came here to look for medicine a few months ago, but I haven't returned yet, so I came to look for Dr. Xu." Wanyu's eyes were red, and tears kept falling. She cried for a while, and said bitterly: "After Shangguan Mao and I came here, we were attacked by pirates, which caused us to be separated. A few days ago, we I was going to the shrine to meet Shangguanmao, but on the way I met a man who called himself Hong Tianxu, and he said that he was also in trouble, so he insisted on walking with me."

Li Canghai folded his hands on his chest, stroked his chin, and did not speak.

Then I heard Wanyu continue to say: "Father once said that people in this world are sinister and there are all kinds of people. At first I didn't believe it, but now I really see it."

"Oh, what happened?" Li Canghai asked.

Wanyu pursed her lips with a flushed face, and said with a sob: "That Hong Tianxu was polite at the beginning, fetching me water and finding food, he seemed like a good person. But who knows, he did all this just to deceive me He knew that I knew martial arts and was not my opponent, so he secretly put medicine in the water so that I could not use martial arts, and his true nature was fully exposed."

Li Canghai frowned and said, "Miss Wanyu, how can you easily trust strangers when you are alone?"

Wanyu bit her lips lightly, and said: "The food that Hong Tianxu found for me, I don't know how to eat it. But the water was poured from a gourd. I saw that he drank it without any abnormality. I just drank it... But who knows, the beast actually took the antidote early in the morning. After I lost all my martial arts, he wanted to..."

Wanyu's voice became smaller and smaller, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and her tears kept flowing.

"Hmph! A thing that is not as good as a beast!" Li Canghai cursed angrily, and he comforted him: "Miss Wanyu, don't worry, I will definitely catch that guy and hand it over to the girl!"

Wanyu stopped talking, but kept stirring the corner of her clothes with her fingers, as if she was at a loss.

"Wanyu, but where are Shangguan Mao and Dr. Xu?" Li Canghai asked.

"Shangguan Mao and I have made an agreement that if we get separated or encounter danger, we will meet at the Tianfu God Society. As for Dr. Xu, I have searched for many days, but I have not found his whereabouts." Wanyu said.

Li Canghai nodded and said, "In that case, let's go to the shrine to meet Shangguanmao first, and then make plans."

Wanyu's cheeks were flushed, she wrapped her clothes tightly, and said with some embarrassment: "My lord...I have trouble moving now...."

Li Canghai smiled calmly and said, "I'll carry you."

Wanyu froze for a moment, she looked at Li Canghai, her cheeks flushed even more.

"This...isn't it appropriate?" Wanyu whispered.

Li Canghai smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, come up."

As he spoke, Li Canghai bent his waist down.

Wanyu hesitated for a moment, then lay down on Li Canghai's back with difficulty.

Wanyu has the physique of a child, so she doesn't weigh much on her back.

Li Canghai didn't think there was anything wrong with carrying her on his back.

"Wanyu, you said earlier that you met pirates? Besides you, are there other people on this island?" Li Canghai asked while walking with Wanyu on his back.

Wanyu nodded, and said in a daze: "I also find it strange that few outsiders come to Penglai Island, and even if there are shipwrecks, there are very few people living here. Thief, this is really weird."

"How are those pirates dressed up?" Li Canghai suspected that the pirates Wanyu mentioned might be the Japanese envoys, so he asked.

"Those pirates are dressed in ordinary clothes, all of them are vicious, and they seem to be Japanese bandits." Wanyu said.

Li Canghai pondered. According to what Wanyu said, those pirates should not be the Japanese envoys.

The envoys represent a country, and no matter what, they must uphold their face.

Those who can enter the envoys are all carefully selected, so how can they be vicious?

But if it wasn't for the Japanese envoys, the origin of those pirates would be a bit troublesome.

"Besides those pirates, have you seen other people?" Li Canghai asked.

Wanyu shook her head and said: "Not really. In the past few days, I have been looking for Dr. Xu near Yatsushirohara, and I have not been to other places. Except for those pirates and Hong Tianxu, I have never seen anyone else .By the way, why did Mr. Li come here?"

"Some of my friends have wandered here, and I came to meet them. But I don't know where they are now." Li Canghai said with a sigh.

Wanyu hesitated for a moment, and said: "My lord, don't worry, although this Penglai Island is dangerous, it is also safe. If your friends are living here, they might be in Tianfu Shrine now!"
