Chapter 43

The three brothers of the Lin family were immersed in the joy of No.2, completely unaware of what happened in the inn.

When they went back to the inn and wanted to take Ah Li to celebrate, they were told by Luo Yun that Ah Li was missing.

A few people felt that the sky was falling, and they ran upstairs to search like crazy.

He didn't find Ah Li's figure and hurried downstairs again.

The three brothers are going to look outside.

Luo Yun stopped Lin Darong, "This Yongning mansion is too big, do you want to go to the prefect, he should be able to help."

"Yes, brother, do you remember what happened at the noodle stall on the way we came here? I think it is very likely that they did it." Lin Sanrong said calmly after thinking for a while.

"It's really possible. Well, I'll go to the magistrate, and you should look around first. We'll meet up at the inn in an hour."

Luo Yun also found someone to go out with them to look for them.

Suddenly, Lin Errong thought why the Lu family's coachman had disappeared.

"Sister Yun, did you see the driver who was with us again?"

Luo Yun hurriedly replied: "He went out to look for Ah Li as soon as he knew he was missing, and he hasn't come back yet."

Now the three brothers of the Lin family can only pin their hopes on the magistrate and the Lu family's coachman.

Soon several people split up and took action.

After Lin Darong went to the gate of the prefect to explain his intention to the gatekeeper, the gatekeeper immediately went in to inform the prefect.

I happened to meet Mr. Deng who was out for a walk on the road, and when he heard that A Li was missing, he was very anxious.

"Go and tell Qirui, I'll go and have a look outside the door."

Mr. Deng walked to the door and saw Lin Darong pacing back and forth anxiously, he hurried up and asked, "Da Rong, is A Li girl missing?"

Lin Darong turned his head and walked over immediately, "Old man, yes, we went to see the list in the morning, and when we came back, Li Li disappeared."

"Don't worry, we will definitely help you find her. A Li girl is my savior."

"Thank you, old man!"

Lin Darong almost knelt down to him, they were unfamiliar with the place, and they had no clue where to find someone.

Soon the magistrate Deng Qirui asked them to go to the living room. He had to understand what happened before he could make a plan to find them.

When Lin Darong told him about the noodle stall encountering bandits robbing children.

Deng Qirui's expression changed, he looked at Lin Darong and said, "Have you met those people too?"

"Yes, my lord. At that time, because our coachman had some fists and kicks, he beat them away, and only then did he reach Yongning Mansion safely."

"Recently, there have been several reports of missing children in the yamen. It seems that the little girl Li is probably the one who did it. Now that we know that it is a bandit from Tuoluo Mountain, then we have a clue."

Then he ordered the arresters in the yamen to go to a group of people to inquire about the news.

Lin Darong strongly demanded to go with the policemen.

Originally, Deng Qirui and Mr. Deng were afraid that he would be in danger if he didn't have time, and persuaded him to wait until he found out the news.

But how could he wait here any longer, he wished he could fly to Tuoluo Mountain immediately to see if Ah Li was there.

Unable to resist him, Deng Qirui let him go with him.

He sent someone to wait at the Tongfu Inn, and told Lin Errong and Lin Sanrong that their eldest brother had gone to Tuoluo Mountain.
They were in a hurry, while Ah Li was gnawing on the chicken legs leisurely.

It takes a day's journey from Yongning Fucheng to Tuoluo Mountain, not to mention that the mountain road is steep, and it takes a lot of time to climb the mountain.

After those people caught Ah Li, they didn't stop until it was almost dark.

Ah Li woke up a long time ago. She wanted to see what these people were going to do, so she didn't make a sound. Anyway, she didn't need to walk. If someone carried her on his back, let him carry it.

They were exhausted after walking for a day, so they stopped to rest, and prepared to eat with the roast chicken that came along.

Ah Li opened his eyes and looked at the person holding the roast chicken with sparkling eyes.

Seeing Ah Li staring at him, the man was going to eat with his back on his back.

Ah Li suddenly burst into tears with a "wow".

The sound is so loud that the whole mountain can hear it.

The bandits were afraid that someone would chase her, so they hurriedly said to her, "Don't cry, if you cry again, I will throw you into the mountains to feed the wolves."

"I'm hungry, if you don't give me chicken legs, I'll cry."

Seeing that she opened her mouth wide and was about to start howling again, the person holding the roast chicken pulled a drumstick and handed it to her, "Eat it, eat it, if it wasn't for your great use, I wouldn't bother to spoil you."

Ah Li pouted and said, "Then you have to untie my hands before I can eat!"

The man untied Ah Li's hand again in a good temper, "Little girl, don't play tricks, I've heard that you are unusual, but we have made a lot of preparations."

"What is playing tricks? I don't know how to play tricks. I can only eat chicken legs."

Ah Li gnawed on the chicken legs with great relish, and waited until he was full before talking about everything.

After eating the chicken legs, it was getting dark, and the bandits had to continue on their way.

Ah Li ate and drank enough, lying on the bandit's back and sleeping soundly.

Several people couldn't help complaining.

"This girl is really big-hearted. She's not afraid that we won't tell her, but she still dares to ask us for food."

"Didn't you say that she wanted to catch the brother she didn't catch before, this girl is very evil, it seems that this is really the case."

"But pull it down! How powerful is a three or four-year-old little girl, I can blow her away with one fist. They must have not completed the mission and deliberately made excuses."

"I think so too. Otherwise, we could have brought her back so easily, it would probably be the nonsense of those people."

Ah Li was lying on the bandit's back, but she didn't really fall asleep. She secretly took out candies from her small bag and threw them all the way.

Tuoluo Mountain is worthy of its name, and the mountain roads circle around the mountain until the top of the mountain.

The terrain at the top of the mountain is relatively steep. Heifengzhai is a cottage built of stones. The hiding place is very hidden and the terrain is relatively dangerous.

Because of the terrain, it is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

As soon as they arrived at the gate of the cottage, the people patrolling on the tower immediately exchanged slogans.

"It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married."

The person carrying Ah Li quickly answered.

"Why not."

Soon the gate of the cottage opened.

A group of people entered the cottage.

Many people greeted them, "Hey, Yan Pao, you can do it, and the goods are here again! Your recent rewards are quite a lot!"

"It's okay, it's okay, let's go to the head of the house first, and have a drink together later!"

"Okay, then I want to drink more, you guys hurry up, it happens that the head of the family hasn't rested yet."

The man carrying Ah Li was named Yan San, and he was one of the best fighters in this bandit den.

That's why a lot of children were successfully caught up to the mountain. The head of the family promised that they would get 50 taels of silver for each child, and 20 taels for a good-looking child.

So the people in the cottage have been committing crimes like mad dogs recently.
