The Ming Dynasty took an unconventional approach

Chapter 397 Shift of sight
Pan Yun and Wang Cong found more than 30 sets of clothes in the pawnshop. There was no other way because the clothes there were both good and cheap.

Pan Jun couldn't help but buy two sets of clothes for themselves, one for men and one for women.

Oh, theirs are men's clothing, while Wang Cong and Tao Yanbai's are women's clothing.

This is to make it easier to change your appearance in the future.

The two also bought a lot of cloth bags and cheap second-hand cloth.

Wang Cong felt that this was not enough, so he dragged Pan Yun to the cloth shop and bought two pieces of black cloth. "Little Master, with the frequency of your getting into trouble now, I think we need to make a set of night clothes."

Pan Yun: "Will one set not be enough? How about buying two more and making two sets for each person?"

Wang Cong looked at her silently, then turned around and went back into the store.

After it got dark, Pan Yun took out a stack of amulets, gave each of them one, and said, "Take your bags, we'll be leaving soon."

Half an hour had passed since the curfew. There was no one on the street and most people in the inn were asleep.

Pan Yun simply opened the window, took them downstairs one by one through the window, and then sent them to the escort agency.

The escort agency's bodyguards met them halfway.

They were more familiar with Jinan Prefecture and the patrol routes and times, and successfully led Pan Yun and his men to avoid the patrols and enter the escort agency.

It was much more convenient after entering the escort agency. The chief escort said, "I have asked people to clean up four guest rooms. The girls can squeeze into one and stay for a few days to recuperate. We will leave after the news has passed."

"How many days do I have to wait?"

They were anxious to get home and couldn't wait to leave.

The chief escort thought for a moment and said, "The fastest time is three days. If it's late, it will probably be five or seven days."

The girls who were abducted didn't expect it to take so long and were silent for a while.

Pan Yun said, "Wanchunlou has already reported you to the police, and you disappeared out of thin air. If they believe you are haunted, that's fine, but if they don't, they will definitely look for you everywhere, and the city gate is the most important place to keep an eye on you."

"That's why we have to wait for the storm to pass." Pan Yun said, "When things don't go well, you have to be patient and learn to endure. Just be patient for a while."

"What if they are still watching the city gate seven days later?"

The chief escort said, "Even if they are still watching you after seven days, they will be much more relaxed. I have my own way to get you out of the city."

The girls then quieted down.

Pan Yun gave the chief escort some money and said, "This is for their food, lodging, and medicine. Thank you, chief escort."

The chief escort smiled and said, "It is my duty to collect money and help people get rid of disasters. Please rest assured, Miss Pan."

Pan Yun bowed and said goodbye. The girls looked at Pan Yun and his companions reluctantly. When they turned around to leave, they knelt down and kowtowed to them.

Even Zhuo Ling and the other two who were supported knelt on the ground.

Pan Jun looked back, quickened his pace and left, while saying to Pan Xiaohei on his shoulder: [Stay.]

The girls bowed to them.

The chief escort waited for them to finish bowing and then said, "It's getting late, girls, go back to your room and rest."

The chief escort's wife, daughter and two female escorts came up to help them and took them downstairs to rest.

Pan Xiaohei cursed in his heart and hid under a tree, waiting for the bodyguards to leave.

[Didn't you say that he has a good appearance and is a trustworthy person? ]

【I never trust anyone 100%, including myself. 】

Pan Xiaohei: [You are really suspicious. This is a disease and needs to be treated!]

Pan Yun didn't care at all, "Just stay here and watch. It will be the same if you come back in two days."

As a result, they moved to a new inn the next day, so Pan Xiaohei, who went back to look for food, couldn't find Miaohe. In the end, he could only follow his instincts to find Pan Jun, and he even cursed, "Can't you tell me you changed the inn?"

[You are a spirit in the spiritual realm, how can you not know where you are? ]

[I know where you are, but I'm not looking for you! ]

Pan Xiaohei grinned at Pan Yun, but when he turned to face Miaohe, he was smiling and very well-behaved. Not only did he meow like a spoiled child, he also turned over his belly for her to touch.

Pan Yun gritted his teeth as he watched.

Miao He was very happy. She hugged Pan Xiao Hei, touched his head, rubbed his belly, and then started to take out food from the space. "I bought you some dried meat strips. They are delicious. Try them."

Pan Yun took out a paper bag from the space and slowly took out a fish from it. "This is a wild fish caught from the river and fried in oil. I dare not say that the fragrance is the most beautiful in the world, but at least it is not weak~~"

Pan Xiaohei raised his head quickly, and Miaohe also looked over.

The cat and the man swallowed their saliva at the same time.

Miao He: "Master, where did you buy this fried fish? Why haven't I seen it before?"

Pan Yun: "I caught the fish and paid the chef of the inn to fry it. Originally, if a certain cat didn't come back, I would have sent it over, but now it seems that it is very resentful and wants to break up with me."

"Meow——" Pan Xiaohei was about to break free from Miaohe and move forward.

But there was no need for it to move, as Miaohe had already come over with it in her arms, and the man and the cat were staring at the little fish in Pan Yun's hand together.

Miao He: "Master, this little fish looks delicious."

"Meow, it looks okay."

Pan Jun snorted proudly and passed one to Pan Xiaohei's mouth. Pan Xiaohei immediately stretched out his mouth to bite it, lowered his head and began to eat seriously.

Miaohe, who was holding it, also opened his mouth.

Pan Yun took out one and fed her.

Seeing how happily they were eating, she couldn't help but eat one too.

The fried fish were still warm and were fried again to make them crispy.

So the two of them and the cat got together and divided up the paper bag of small fish.

"Too little," Pan Xiaohei asked directly, "fry some more."

"Then we have to buy some more. Big fish are common, but small fish are not."

Pan Xiaohei looked at her with his glass-like eyes, "Didn't you say you fished it out yourself?"

Pan Yun: "Wait a minute, let me think about how to defend myself."

Miao Zhen pushed the door open and said, "Master Junior, Tang Peng has been captured."

Pan Yun was delighted and left Pan Xiaohei behind. "Okay, I have to deal with important matters. Don't bother me with trivial matters like eating and drinking for the time being."

Pan Yun asked: "Who arrested Tang Peng?"

Miao Zhen was unable to explain: "He was an acquaintance, and was captured by the Wulin League led by Qu Le."

Pan Yun: "Wulin Alliance? They moved so quickly that they came here?"

Pan Yun touched his chin and said, "Do you think they bought the information from Qianxi Tower?"

Miao Zhen nodded: "It's very likely that the Wulin Alliance is not short of money."

Pan Yun: "I just hope that idiot Qu Le will only ask for the news, and not think of asking who sold the news."

"Qianxi Tower has its own spies. Most people who buy information won't ask this." Miao Zhen paused and asked, "Should we change places?"

Pan Jun thought for a moment and shook his head: "It's just changed. It's better to stay still than to move. Now that Tang Peng has been captured, the Jinyiwei guarding the city gate should withdraw. It won't be long before the Jinyiwei will leave. Let's wait."

Pan Yun's guess was correct. When Liu Jing learned that the people from the Wulin Alliance had forcibly captured their bait and injured the Jinyiwei who were monitoring Tang Peng, he knew that the line with Tang Peng was ruined.

It is impossible for Hu Jing to come, and even if he comes, he will definitely not show up.

If it was any other gangster, it would be fine. Liu Jing was absolutely sure that he could find him.

But Hu Jing himself is a very powerful bounty hunter with excellent criminal investigation skills and naturally, his anti-detection ability is also very good.

Before, he didn't know that he was being followed, and he had to accept and hand in tasks from the government office, which was an active exposure.

Now...

Liu Jing and Wang Shan said, "Sir, we have already alerted the enemy. Hu Jing will not come again. It is useless for us to stay here any longer."

Wang Shan's face turned grim. "Are you saying that I have alerted the enemy?"

Liu Jing immediately said, "No, I am just guessing. The two Japanese pirates should have found Hu Jing. After fighting him, Hu Jing should have guessed that everyone is here for the treasure map."

Wang Shan thought of the Wulin ally who was pretending to be stupid, and snorted, "You ruffians, you still want to embezzle the national property. Those treasures are all looted by pirates from the people of the Ming Dynasty. They belong to the national treasury and your majesty's money!"

"Yes, they overestimate their own abilities."

Wang Shan asked, "In your opinion, where should we go to find Hu Jing next?"

Liu Jing said: "The Ming Dynasty has a vast territory and a large population. It is extremely difficult to find a person who is hiding. However, it is much easier to find two foreigners."

He said: "Hu Jing is hard to find, but the Japanese pirates are easy to find. It just requires a lot of manpower."

Wang Shan understood instantly, "I will issue an order in the name of the Pacification Office, ordering all prefectures, counties and towns to immediately check the people passing by."

Liu Jing said: "Not only will their body shapes and accents be different, but over time, they will have spent all their money. Given the nature of the pirates, they will inevitably steal, so we can also trace the source of the crime."

The captain standing by couldn't bear to see Liu Jing being the only one standing out, so he couldn't help but ask, "What if Hu Jing has been caught by those two bandits, or even killed?"

Everyone fell silent.

The captain felt that what he said made sense, and said, "Sir, those two bandits are very skilled in martial arts. We have killed three Jinyiwei in our pursuit, and two of them were seriously injured."

"If they find Hu Jing, he would be in great danger, right?"

The Jinyiwei at the side also said: "Perhaps this is the reason why Hu Jing has not appeared yet?"

Wang Shan clenched his fists, his face gloomy.

He turned to ask Liu Jing, "What if Hu Jing is caught and killed?"

Liu Jing said solemnly, "Whether they are captured or killed, as long as we can catch the pirates before they go out to sea, we can still get the treasure map from them."

Wang Shan thought about it and it was true. If Hu Jing was caught or killed, wouldn't the treasure map fall into the hands of those two bandits?

The essence is to catch those two people.

Wang Shan immediately stood up and said, "Let's go, tell the navy to keep a close watch on the coast and don't let them go out to sea!"

　After careful calculation, the total number of chapters owed has reached 24, 8 chapters have been made up, and there are 16 chapters left.
