Chapter 127 Inquiry
She had no choice but to walk down the alley to the street to see if she could meet them, but she still couldn't find anyone.

I hesitated for a while, why don't I come again next time?

But she was afraid that something might happen to Mrs. Hu, so she lost all clues.

In the end, I decided to go and see for myself.

She came to the Beggar's Temple in the south of the city. It was said to be a temple, but in fact it was a dilapidated temple with a half-collapsed roof and ruined walls everywhere.

No matter in the temple or around the temple, there are beggars everywhere, those who are only a little active have gone out to beg at this time, and the rest are old, weak, sick and disabled.

As soon as she came over, she attracted the eyes of all the beggars, either puzzled, strange, greedy, numb, or lewd.

Some people even started to move around, but since they didn't go out to beg, they knew that they were all in poor health, and they were a little afraid of Ning Chu daring to come here on his own, so they didn't dare to act rashly for a while.

Ning Chu turned a blind eye and only looked for his target in the crowd.

Soon she saw Mrs. Hu who was lying on the ground, looking at the sky blankly.

"Mrs. Hu."

Ning Chu stepped forward and shouted softly.

It's just that the other party didn't respond, and there was not even a slight fluctuation in his eyes.

After thinking about it, Ning Chu probed again: "Where's Hu Chengcai?"

At this moment, she finally saw her eyeballs move, and she looked at Ning Chu stiffly, as if asking silently.

Seeing her reaction, Ning Chu also knew how to find a breakthrough.

"Mrs. Hu, do you know? The people behind the magistrate Hu will not let Hu Chengcai go. Maybe you will say that Hu Chengcai doesn't know anything, but I believe he is more willing to kill the grass.

Now the higher authorities are strictly investigating the case of County Magistrate Hu. Do you think that person is particularly afraid of being involved at this time?

Moreover, this case has alarmed all the officials in Fucheng. No matter how powerful the person behind you is, the forces behind Fucheng are intricate and complicated. It is hard to guarantee that there will not be someone with a stronger background than this person. You can take advantage of this time to replace the other party. What do you think? "

Mrs. Hu listened to Ning Chu's spells like devils, and at the same time, each word hit her heart, tearing away the fear deep in her heart.

Now the only motivation that can support her to live on is her son. If something happens to his son, she will not live alone.

"But I said, will you save my son's life?"

Since she hadn't spoken for a long time, her voice was a little hoarse and dark.

"I can't guarantee this, I can only say that I will find a way to get rid of this person as soon as possible, and why don't you say it now, if the other party doesn't want to let your mother and child go, it will be the same fate if you say it or not. Waiting for death, said, there is still a glimmer of life, see if you are willing to gamble."

Ning Chu seeks truth from facts.

Don't expect her to protect Hu Chengcai. It's impossible to dream. She is worthy of the laws and regulations she learned in her previous life and the nine-year compulsory education without killing her.

When Mrs. Hu heard this, she felt a little desperate for a moment.

Yes, she has nothing now, only her son, what else can't she say?
However, she looked at Ning Chu suspiciously, "Who are you? How do you know there is someone behind the master?"

"Does it make sense to ask now? So what if you know who I am?"

That's right, what's the point of asking these now, her heart has long been numb with pain, only the matter of her son can make waves.

She looked at the sky with empty eyes again, and said slowly:
"Actually, I don't know very well. The master doesn't trust anyone at all. I only know that he often has contacts with two officials in Fucheng, and recently he even got in touch with the capital."

"Who's in the capital? Bofu?"

Ning Chu couldn't help asking, wondering if it was the sincere uncle's mansion.

"Bo Mansion?"

Madam Hu shook her head lightly.

"Probably not, I only know that it seems to be a high-ranking minister."

Minister?

Now Ning Chu was even more puzzled, since he was an important minister, why did he have trouble with the two little girls?

Forget it, let's focus on the eyes first.

"Do you have any guesses about the two people in Fucheng?"

Mrs. Hu was silent for a while, before she said: "Actually, there is no need to guess at all, there are only a few people in Fucheng who are worthy of the name."

That's right, there are only a few famous people in Fucheng, but County Magistrate Hu has already hooked up with two of them.

Rather than saying that she doesn't want to guess, it's better to say how she will live in the future.

It seems that God doesn't want her to have a good time.

"but……"

Madam Hu seemed to remember something and was about to speak.

Suddenly, there was a slight sound of piercing through the air, and Ning Chu subconsciously stepped aside. When he remembered Madam Hu, he happened to see an arrow heading towards Madam Hu.

She quickly dragged Mrs. Hu to avoid the arrows.

It's just that the speed was slow in the end, and although it avoided the vital point, the arrow still hit Madam Hu's calf.

"Well……"

Madam Hu cried out in pain.

Ning Chu didn't have time to think, the next arrow came one after another.

She was originally a half-baked person, and could run alone, but now that Madam Hu was an additional burden, she was exhausted after evading several times.

In addition, there are many beggars here, she was afraid of hurting the innocent, so she imposed a lot of restrictions for a while.

Because of the sudden chaos, those who were just about to move stopped their fire instantly, and those who could move were basically running for their lives.

The entire Beggar Temple was turned upside down.

Seeing that there are still dozens of meters away from the half-collapsed roof of the ruined temple, as long as she retreats there, she can first settle Mrs. Hu, and then find a way to deal with the people in the dark.

Although it is obvious that this person's goal is Mrs. Hu, she can have nothing to do with herself, but after all, the person is in front of her, and she cannot remain indifferent.

What's more, maybe it was his own probing that accelerated the speed of the opponent's attack.

In fact, she also knew that even without her, Mrs. Hu would still be dealt with secretly sooner or later, but since she met her, she would do nothing and feel sorry for her conscience. She only wanted to do things with a clear conscience.

Just when Ning Chu was about to move on, more and more dense arrows shot towards them.

Ning Chu was struggling to take Mrs. Hu to roll on the ground to escape.

Mrs. Hu was shot by an arrow in her calf just now, and later she saw that Ning Chu had been saving herself. She knew that these people were here to kill her, and she couldn't escape now. Even if she was saved by this girl today, what will happen next?

And her side is like this, is her son also in danger now?
Thinking of this, her cold heart twitched suddenly, thinking that something might happen to her son, she glanced at Ning Chu who was hugging her to avoid the arrows, and her heart was hardened, her eyes that had already been dead suddenly burst into a firm light.

She threw herself on Ning Chu with all her strength, and also blocked all the arrows with her back.

At the same time, the arrows that were just like a torrential rain stopped.
