Pastoral lucky girl's counterattack

Chapter 125 Uneven Night
When Xia Houyu left and returned, they hurriedly set off.Qiu Laifu took the opportunity to buy some dry food to eat on the way when Xia Houyu went to Mr. Fang's place.

It was still necessary to go to Lin County by water, so they all took Qiu Laifu's boat.That boat was originally Qiu Laifu and his family's drifting home.The little tandoors and pots from the boat are still there.So it is convenient even if you go out for a few days.

They are all people who have been out and about, and they are not that reserved. Besides, Qiu Laifu is dressed as a boy now, so at a glance, they are a group of men, and there is no need to pay attention to anything.But everyone knows that Qiu Laifu is a woman, and they all abide by their duties.

About three hours after the boat sailed, it arrived at a large pier.Several large ships were docked at the pier, some of them were loading and unloading goods, and the pier was bustling with noise.Qiu Laifu's boat directly docked in a small port.After Qiu Laifu locked the cabin and put the anchor chain on the stakes in the port, several people went ashore together. Qiu Laifu paid the management fee skillfully.Everyone is relieved to go to the pier.

Chen Zhongren took everyone to the labor market to have a look.It was already the end of the afternoon, and half an hour later, it would be dark, so the market looked desolate.There are also some low-rise houses built in the market, and it is estimated that some slaves live there.It's just that the doors are closed at the moment, and no one is operating them at all.It is definitely not possible to buy people right now.

After looking at the labor market, Qiu Laifu proposed to stay in a hotel first.Chen Zhongren took several people to live in a carriage and horse shop that he was familiar with, and each of them booked a middle-class room.They planned to have an early meal and rest, but this carriage and horse shop only provided accommodation, not meals, so they had to go out for dinner.

Several people chose to eat in a small restaurant not far from the chariot and horse shop.Qiu Laifu chose an inconspicuous corner, and she chose the corner where Xia Houyu sat across from her, Cao Zhiyang sat on her right, Chen Zhongren sat on the left, and they ordered a few home-cooked dishes at random.While waiting for the food to be served, a voice suddenly entered Qiu Laifu's ears, which caught her attention.The voice came from the table between them.

There were only three guests at that table, a gentle-looking young man.He was wearing a blue satin gown, and his hair was combed slickly.It is estimated that ants will wrestle when they climb up.Although there is no crown on the bun, there is also a silver hairpin inserted.How does this person look like a little boy?It was also what he said that caught Qiu Laifu's attention.

Sitting on his left was a man about his age, who was wearing a fine blue-gray satin shirt.The hair is tied with a silver crown on the head, and an auspicious cloud white jade hairpin is inserted on it.The man looked like he was relatively rich, how could he come to eat in such a small restaurant?
On the left side of the man was an old man in a gray and black cotton gown.His face was full of dust.He just ate with his head down.Apparently he wasn't the one the man was talking to.

The gentle man said to the silver crown man, "What kind of business did brother Tsinghua bring me this time?"

The person who was called Tsinghua University said, "Of course it's a good business. My cousin gave me a good job. After the job is done, it will be this amount." The person stretched out a finger at this point.

"100 taels?" Qiu Laifu heard the gentle man swallowing his saliva.

The silver-crowned man nodded slightly. "Keep your voice down so no one can hear you."

The gentle man immediately said dog-leggedly, "Yes, I can't let others hear it, so tell me what's going on?"

Only the man with the silver crown lowered his voice even more. "Help me find a 10-year-old dumb girl. She has a red birthmark on her elbow. If you want to live, it's worthless if you die. Remember. If you help me find someone, I'll give you this Count." The silver-crowned man stretched out his hand and made an "eight".

The gentle man swallowed again and nodded, "Okay, good. Lao Mao and I will help you find it carefully."

At this moment, the old man who had been buried in his meal finally raised his head and nodded. "Well, I must look carefully. Hehe." This person revealed his secrets when he spoke, and he still looked a little silly.

After the three of them settled down, the man with the silver crown left first.Before going out, he glanced at Qiu Laifu's table, because the glance was so fast that Qiu Laifu thought it was an illusion.After a while, the fake Sven and the old man also left.

Qiu Laifu and the others also served dishes to their table one after another.Both Zhang Zhongren and Xia Houyu ate their meals calmly.Both Qiu Laifu and Cao Zhiyang's expressions changed.

"Does Uncle Cao know that person?" Qiu Laifu finally couldn't help asking.

Cao Zhiyang looked at Qiu Laifu with some doubts, and it was said that his little master would not hear the conversation between the three of them, so why did she ask this question? "I met that person once before. He is Yan Qingping's brother. He helped Yan Qingping do a lot of bad things."

After hearing this, Qiu Laifu felt a little terrified.Her stepmother was still looking for the original owner, but she didn't know that the original owner's soul had long since drifted away, and now that Qiu Laifu had borrowed this body, she would not let her find it so casually.

Several people went back to the chariot and horse shop after dinner.Prepare to go to bed early and get up early, and go to the talent market early tomorrow.Cao Zhiyang chose the middle room for Qiu Laifu, and he and Xia Houyu were on the two sides.This is to protect Qiu Laifu in the middle.Qiu Laifu didn't say anything, she thought it was a good arrangement, as she lived in the middle and could grasp the movement on both sides.This made her feel more at ease.

However, this night was really not peaceful.About four watch, there were some small movements.This is usually the time when people sleep the most deeply, but Qiu Laifu and the others went to bed early, so Qiu Laifu is already a little awake at this moment.

Those slight movements naturally did not escape her ears.At this time, there was a knife at her door trying to pry the latch.Qiu Laifu put it on in a low voice and turned on the beam.Fortunately, she had learned some lightness kung fu from Xia Houyu, so it just came in handy right now.She didn't want to make a big noise, so she took out a pack of drugs from the space.Drugs are the best self-defense items for a healer, and he has already prepared them in the space.

After drinking the spiritual spring water, Qiu Laifu's senses became much more sensitive than ordinary people.At this moment, she clearly saw that the thief who pried the door had already pried the door open, pushed the door open gently, and walked towards the bed with his waist bent and his feet on his feet.Before he could reach the bed, however, he collapsed.When he passed the beam, Qiu Laifu sprinkled a handful of drugs on top of his head.

While Qiu Laifu was applauding his ecstasy, another dark figure came in, and this person was Cao Zhiyang.When he hadn't walked over the beams, another person entered the door.The person who came was Xia Houyu.Seeing someone in the room, Xia Houyu sipped softly, "Who?"

When Cao Zhiyang heard that it was Xia Houyu, he replied softly. "Me." Then he blew on the torch that he carried with him.Find the candles in the house and light them.Suddenly the room was bright.I saw a person lying on the ground.Cao Zhiyang hurriedly went to look at the bed, the curtain was drawn, and the bed was empty. "Ah, why is little master missing?" Cao Zhiyang was shocked.
