The famous book tour starting from the Red House

263 Octopus
The setting sun was slanting towards the west. On a remote street in the south of Shenjing, there were few customers in the teahouse on weekdays, but today there were many people sitting there. Mu Xu sat near the window, looking into the distance. In an ordinary house, he asked softly, "Are you sure the Maitreya Sect will take action today?"

There were two people sitting opposite Mu Xu, but they were Zhang Cheng and Feng Ziying. After listening to his question, Zhang Cheng looked at Feng Ziying, and Feng Ziying replied knowingly, "There should be no fakes, according to the information sent back by the spies." News, those people are going to do it at midnight."

"Did the spies say how many people they have and who is the leader?"

"There are thirty demons. As for who is the leader, the spy's status in the Maitreya Sect is too low, so we can't find out yet."

"Since we dare to gather people in the capital to rescue Zhen Baoyu, there must be high-level members of the Maitreya Sect involved. As long as we can catch people alive, we may be able to track down the clues and find the policewoman who has been hiding behind the scenes."

Both of them agreed with Mu Xu's words, and Zhang Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, my son, we have set up a net around that house, and when the thieves come in, we will definitely let them come." No return."

"Well, I hope everything goes well." Mu Xu nodded, and then he thought of something, and asked quickly, "Have you greeted Wucheng Bingmasi? Don't let their people break in then, bad It's our big business."

Feng Ziying replied, "I have already greeted several yamen, and those who are in charge of night shifts and night watch around tonight are all pretended by our fan."

"Okay, then let's wait for the good news here."

Hearing the meaning of Mu Xu's words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help persuading, "My lord, it's just getting dark today, and it's still a few hours before those monsters make a move. Why don't you go back home and wait for the news?"

Feng Ziying also echoed, "My lord Zhang is right. Your son will just go back to rest. With us watching over here, nothing serious will happen. If there is any disturbance, I will send someone to the palace to inform your son."

"It's okay, you don't have to worry about me." Mu Xu refused their offer. He was really curious about the police fairy. He might be able to catch her this time. He didn't want to go home and wait for the news. .

Seeing Mu Xu's resolute attitude, Zhang Cheng and the two had no choice but to give up the idea of ​​persuasion, and started gossiping with him instead.In this way, while the three of them were doing their homework while waiting, the time soon reached midnight, and when they were still half an hour away from the time, they suddenly heard the sound of clappers in the distance, and then someone shouted " It's out of water."

When the three of them heard the news, they couldn't sit still. They hurriedly got up and came to the door of the teahouse. Looking into the distance, they saw that the place about two streets away was already full of flames.Seeing this, Feng Ziying said with an ugly expression, "You say this is..." Before he finished speaking, he heard noises coming from the northeast direction, and then a fire was also ignited, lighting up the sky.

The three of them are all quick-witted people. Seeing this situation, they don't know that someone is setting fire on purpose to confuse the public, in order to achieve the purpose of diverting the tiger away from the mountain. Unfortunately, these people don't know that Mu Xu and the others have already obtained the information in advance. gullible.

"Ziying, pass on the order to keep the brothers on guard, the thieves are probably going to attack soon." Mu Xu first gave Feng Ziying an order, and then said to Zhang Chengcheng, "Don't be idle, send someone quickly Go and block all intersections on this street to prevent anyone from taking advantage of it."

After sending the two away, within a short time, there was a sound of shouting and killing from the house not far away.After Mu Xu heard it, he was not moved at all, just stood on the steps in front of the teahouse, looking there quietly.

Under Mu Xu's gaze, the shouting and killing lasted for about a quarter of an hour before it gradually stopped, and then I saw Feng Ziying hurried over, "My lord, it's a good luck for this subordinate to rescue Zhen Baoyu's thirty-six thieves." All were wiped out, and eleven of them were captured alive."

"Has the leader ever been captured?"

"The leader saw that the situation was not good, and committed suicide by taking poison on the spot."

Hearing Feng Ziying's reply, Mu Xu frowned and walked a few steps on the spot. After thinking for a while, he said, "Before dawn, send people to guard the gates of each city, and don't let a suspect go. Also, don't Because some people are women, let your guard down."

Feng Ziying didn't dare to believe it, "Your Majesty, you mean that Jing Huan is also in Beijing?"

"The thieves set fires everywhere, and came to rescue people. There are obviously many of them. To be able to organize such a large operation, there must be someone with a high position in the Maitreya Sect, and Zhen Baoyu is the biological flesh and blood of the police illusion demon girl." , do you think she will come?"

Feng Ziying couldn't help nodding, "If Shizi's guess is right, then this is the best time to capture that demon girl. If she is allowed to escape, it may be difficult to capture her in the future."

What Feng Ziying said, Mu Xu also agrees, after all, this time can be regarded as scaring the snake, and it will be difficult to catch the bait in the future.

While the two were talking, they suddenly saw Zhang Cheng driving a carriage with people, and in their surprised eyes, they said from a distance, "Your Majesty expected it, someone really took advantage of the nearby fire to encourage the people to go Dodging here, trying to do that thing of fishing in troubled waters."

"Then you are?" Mu Xu pointed at the carriage, a little confused.

Zhang Cheng didn't reply, instead he said to Feng Ziying with a strange expression, "Brother Feng, you should treat me to a drink this time."

"It's a trivial matter to invite Master Zhang to drink, but your words have confused Feng, please explain." Feng Ziying was at a loss, and really didn't understand what kind of medicine Zhang Cheng sold in the gourd.

Zhang Cheng made a gesture of invitation, brought Mu Xu and the two to the carriage, opened the curtain, and saw a young man in his underwear lying sideways inside, waiting for him to turn the man over to face up .Both Mu Xu and Feng Ziying showed surprise, why do you think that person is clearly Jia Baoyu, besides, the psychic jade on his chest would not be fake.

"Hey, brother Feng, you rescued your brother-in-law, why don't you buy me a drink?" Zhang Cheng patted Feng Ziying on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"This gang of Maitreya monsters have some tricks. It seems that they want to take advantage of the chaos and take advantage of Jia Baoyu and Zhen Baoyu to make fun of them." Mu Xu immediately thought of those people's plans, and then teased Feng Ziying with ill intentions. "This Jia Baoyu is the treasure of the old matriarch of the Rongguo Mansion. I think their family will be having a good time after they find out that they are gone. Ziying, your chance to please your father-in-law has come."

"Oh, my son, don't make sarcastic remarks." Feng Ziying replied with a bitter face, and then asked Zhang Chengdao, "Master Zhang, is my brother-in-law okay? Why is he so noisy, and he can't wake up?"

"Don't worry, I've had someone check it out. He's just drugged. There's nothing serious about it. It's easy to wake him up. Just get a basin of cold water and splash it on his face."

"Don't, just let him sleep like this, and save yourself from waking up and finding trouble for me." Feng Ziying heard that Jia Baoyu was fine, and she was not in a hurry, and she was still joking with Mu Xu, "My son, how about it? Come with me to Rongguo Mansion to see the excitement?"

"Stay true to your wishes, but dare not ask for your ears." Mu Xu would not refuse, and smiled at Feng Ziying, and then the two left Zhang Cheng here to clean up the mess, while they let the two people drive the carriage to Go to Rongning Street.

Let's talk about the situation in Jia's mansion, which is exactly the same as what Mu Xu said.

Not long after that night, Mother Jia was sleeping peacefully, but was suddenly awakened by the noise outside, she sat up a little dissatisfied, and asked to the outside, "It's so late at night, what the hell are you doing?"

Mother Jia asked several times, but no one answered, not even the mandarin duck who had been sleeping outside to watch the night for her.It was only then that she realized that something was wrong, so she put on her coat and walked outside with a cane, ignoring others to wait on her.
