Nanren Street and Luoxiang Lane are the most common streets in Stone City. Most of the people living around are ordinary people.

Sun Zairen had already determined that Jia Lian would not harm him, so naturally he tried his best to please him.

He took Jia Lian and others to a remote courtyard gate and said respectfully: "Master, this is it."

Jia Lian got off his horse and looked. After a quick glance, it was quiet and quiet here, and it seemed like a nice place to live.

　“This is your home?”

　“If I go back to my father, I live next door. When I bought this house, I thought it was too spacious for our family of three. I couldn't live in it, so I separated part of it and opened another door, planning to rent it out and earn some money."

Sun Zairen's words made Jia Lian look at him with admiration. .

It seems that this young novice is doing well in Nanjing City. Not only did he buy a big house, he listened to his wishes, he also married a wife and had children!

You must know that the other party was a little monk who was as rootless as a duckweed before. He had no choice but to go down the mountain and return to secular life. Within a few years, he had settled down in a big city and lived a happy life.

This is much more difficult to achieve than those with extraordinary backgrounds, which shows that he is a smart person who knows how to specialize.

Unfortunately, he was eventually defeated by Jia Yucun and was captured by Jia Yucun.

It can be seen that Jia Yucun is indeed the number one plague god in Red Mansion! Every good person who met him, especially those who helped him, without exception, ended badly!

Zhen Shiyin, Lin Ruhai, Jia Zheng, Wang Ziteng, little novice monk...

Thinking of this, Jia Lian couldn't help but feel wary!

Should the letter of recommendation that Lin Ruhai gave him be delivered to Jia Zheng for him...

Sun Zairen didn’t know that he was actually favored by a nobleman After taking a look, he stepped forward and knocked on the door.

　"Who...?"

　A thin girl's voice came from inside.

Jia Lian saw that the courtyard door was not closed in the first place, so he waved away Sun Zairen and stepped forward to push it open gently.

A half-sized, cold courtyard, with almost nothing at first glance. Under the threshold, a little girl of eleven or twelve years old, wearing thin clothes, sat in front of a wooden footbath, scrubbing her clothes. .

She looked up and saw Jia Lian and others. She immediately showed some nervous expressions, stopped moving her hands, and asked weakly: "Who are you looking for? My father is out for something..."< br />
Jia Lian walked in silently and looked at the person in front of himA timid girl.

The thin face cannot hide the beautiful appearance. Between the white eyebrows, a small pink rouge mark stands out.

With just one glance, Jia Lian was sure that this must be Xiangling. She is the woman ranked first in the supplementary list of Twelve Hairpins, and she is also the only girl in the supplementary list with a verdict.

"The rhizomes of lotus flowers are fragrant for a while, but they are hurt by the reality in their lives.

Since the two places grew lonely trees, the fragrant soul returned to its hometown."

This poem, which foreshadows her fate, makes people feel distressed just by simply reading it.

Jia Lian walked up to her and gently stretched his hand into the wooden basin in front of him. The biting coldness hit him, causing him to retract his hand reflexively.

It was already winter, and she was washing her clothes in the ice-cold water. No wonder her ten little fingers were all red from the cold!

Sun Zairen saw that Jia Lian was a little angry, and he quickly showed indignation: "This is all done by that kidnapper! I have no ability and only know how to drink, so I asked her to help her neighbors. She earns money by washing clothes, but is reluctant to buy firewood, so on this day, she is only allowed to use cold water."

After finishing speaking, Sun Zairen said to Xiang Ling, who was a little nervous: " Miss Yinglian, don't be afraid, this adult is here to save you!"

Hearing Sun Zairen's words, Xiangling became even more uneasy. She huddled up and hugged her legs without saying a word. hair.

Seeing this, Sun Zairen shook his head at Jia Lian and said: "Young master, I don't know that there is a kind of kidnapping in this world. They are lazy and lazy people. They specialize in kidnapping young girls, raising them until they are twelve or thirteen years old, and then selling them. Being concubines for others can usually be sold at a good price!

The kidnappers are afraid of being exposed, so they usually have to be beaten and scolded since they were young, so they only dare to say to outsiders that the kidnappers are Their biological father.

Presumably the same is true for Miss Yinglian.

The villain was just suspicious at first, so when the kidnapper was not at home, he came over and asked Yinglian secretly. Miss Lian, she refused to tell the truth. If I pressed her, she would not only cry, but would only say that she could not remember what happened when she was a child, so... Report to the official."

Sun Zairen glanced at Jia Lian cautiously, fearing that Jia Lian would hold him accountable.

In fact, the kidnapper didn’t come here last month, but rented his house half a year ago. He had already been very familiar with the kidnapper’s situation.

It’s just that he himself has a rough life and has no chivalrous heart, so even if he found out that this girl was Zhen Yinglian, he didn’t want to meddle in others’ affairs.

Kidnappers are usually desperadoes, aren’t they?It's easy to mess with. Besides, if you report the kidnapper, even if you don't get retaliated, no one will rent his house. Why bother!

Jia Lian glanced at the little novice monk and did not argue with him.

Even Jia Yucun, the third-grade Yingtianfu Yin, didn’t care. This little novice had never received any great favor from the Zhen family, so what reason did he have to condemn the little novice’s indifference?

Moreover, given the little novice monk’s ability, let alone whether he could save Xiangling, even if he could, he might not be able to properly place her there.

He had to thank him. If it weren't for the little novice monk, he would certainly not have been able to find Xiangling so easily. And once Xiangling fell into Xue Pan's hands again, the outcome would be difficult to change.

Yin turned his head, looked at Xiangling and said: "Yinglian, do you still remember your father and your mother?"

Xiangling only hugged her legs closer close.

Jia Lian frowned and continued to ask gently: "Then do you remember Jiao Xing?"

Jiao Xing was the personal maid of Xiang Ling's mother and had been with Xiang Ling since she was a child. Ling play people.

Xiang Ling trembled, raised her head and glanced at Jia Lian, then shook her head.

Jia Lian already understood. He turned around and asked the young novice: "Do you know where the kidnapper went?"

"Mostly he was drinking in a nearby tavern... …"

"Zhao Sheng, Feng Fei, you two follow him and go get him back for me."

" It seems that Xiang Ling should have been interested in him when he was a child. I still have some impressions of what happened, but I didn’t dare to reveal a word to anyone out of fear.

Thinking about it, only when she saw the kidnapper being taken away with her own eyes could she be made to speak.

After Zhao Sheng and others left, Jia Lian saw that he could not talk to Xiang Ling, so in order not to scare her, he went outside to wait.

As expected, the little novice monk knew the kidnapper’s path very clearly, and in just one meal, he worked with Zhao Sheng and others to twist the kidnapper back.

　“Dad~~”

Hearing the kidnapper’s scolding, Xiangling walked to the door of the courtyard in a daze, not knowing what to do.

The commotion here also caused the neighbors to come out and watch.

When the kidnapper saw this, he shouted loudly: "Oh my god, come and see, there is a murder, a bully is robbing a girl!!"

"Shut up! "

Zhao Sheng has a bad temper. He talks loudly and makes the kid roll his eyes.

Jia Lian got on his horse and saluted the people around him with clasped fists: "This person is a kidnapper who specializes in kidnapping young girls. He is truly a heartless person. I will prepare now."Take him to the Yamen and ask Mr. Fu Yin to make a decision. "

Jia Lian's words are obviously more credible than those of the kidnapper. How can anyone who robbed a civilian girl dare to take the initiative to go to court?

They all commented for a while: "Yes, yes. Ah, I have long noticed that he is not a good person. If he does not do his job all day long, he only knows how to beat and scold his daughter and make her daughter work. I originally said she wasn't my biological child, but bah, it turned out to be a ruthless kidnapper! ”

“You’re not my biological child, you’ll know it’s not him as soon as you look at it. That girl's hair was so pretty and neat, she must have been abducted from a rich family, a hateful kidnapper, who separated the family's flesh and blood and separated the family.

So I advise you, if you have daughters at home, you should be careful and beware of meeting such people! "

Some people were talking, and some were cheering.

Jia Lian ignored the kidnapper, rode forward, and then said to Xiang Ling: "Come up, let's go invite Qingtian. The grand master will make the decision for you..."

Xiang Ling has already reached the age of understanding people's affairs. She may be afraid of strangers, but for the local official who is known as the grand master of Qingtian, he should have the same understanding as ordinary people. Some natural trust.

Otherwise, Jia Lian wouldn’t have to go to such trouble and just beat the kidnapper half to death and send him to Yingtian Mansion.

Xiang Ling still didn’t dare , the uncles, aunts and grandmothers next to them couldn't help it anymore, and said one after another: "Daughter, just follow this gentleman. I believe that this gentleman and Mr. Fu Yin will definitely be able to make the decision for you. "

With such words in my ears, I took another look at "Dad" who was in Wang Sheng's hands, showing no resistance, just wailing desperately, and finally nodded silently.

Seeing this, Jia Lian leaned down, took Xiang Ling's hand, and with both hands, he hugged her onto the horse.

Then Jia Lian said to the people around him: "Fellow folks, A kidnapper kidnaps and sells a young girl. He has lost all conscience. I sincerely ask all fellow villagers to go to the government office with me and ask Mr. Fu Yin to give this person a proper punishment as a warning to others! "

"Okay, that's how it should be~! ”

“This gentleman is really brave and heroic! "

As soon as Jia Lian said this, the people around him no longer had any doubts and were filled with righteous indignation. Many of them voluntarily followed Jia Lian and others.

Various sects, many They all have daughters, who can bear to have their daughter kidnapped by these kidnappers, beaten, scolded, and sold for money?

Just brought in gently, the hatred in my heart is beyond words, and I want to see it Look what happened to this kidnapper.
