Zhang Zhongjian said: "If she is Cai Yuanchang's person, then she will die."

Sai Yuhuan disagreed: "Not necessarily. Yin Jiujiu said that the two people he brought back were both martial arts masters, and I have tried that little girl's skills. It's not surprising. She is definitely no match for that man."

Zhang Zhongjian couldn't remember the name of the little girl Sai Yuhuan said for a while: "What is that little girl's name? Lao Zhu told me her name, but I can't remember it for a while."

Sai Yuhuan said: "It seems that the surname is Ni, and the name is Ni Jie. She is from Liyang. That's what the little girl said. I don't know whether it is true or not."

The name Ni Jie sounded familiar to Zhang Zhongjian, and he vaguely remembered that his cousin's aunt had a granddaughter with this name. He still remembered that his cousin's aunt came to his house with her granddaughter. His brother's daughter was naughty and beat her cousin's granddaughter until she was bruised. In view of his niece's toughness, his cousin's aunt She will never bring her granddaughter to visit her again.

Maybe she has the same name, just like the little girl he met by the stream today.

Seeing that he was a little stunned, Sai Yuhuan said: "Why are you so stupid?"

"No." Zhang Zhongjian shook his head.

The two walked to the cell. There were no traces of Hua Fushu and Brother Niu anywhere. Only Brother Niu was lying unconscious on the ground. Zhang Zhongjian squatted down and looked under the lantern. He saw some white powder scattered on the ground and Brother Niu's clothes. He sniffed Brother Niu's nose and breathed evenly before saying, "Old Niu has drugged someone."

Sai Yuhuan said firmly: "It must be the drug that the little girl brought."

She locked up Ye Zelin and took away his weapons, concealed weapons, money, banknotes, etc., but the little girl was not searched.

Zhang Zhongjian speculated: "Maybe they are in the same group." If the little girl named "Ni Jie" is Cai Yuanchang's person, they will definitely not disappear together.

Sai Yuhuan muttered: "These court officials take a woman with them when they go out to handle cases."

Zhang Zhongjian looked sideways: "Don't the two people the third brother brought back today also have a girl?"

Sai Yuhuan said: "I heard that the girl brought back by the third child is Yu Xuanji's niece."

Zhang Zhongjian said: "They probably haven't gone far." At least they didn't leave the stronghold.

Sai Yuhuan understood immediately, took Zhang Zhongjian's lantern and strode down the mountain, "Zhongjian, follow me."

Zhang Zhongjian quickly followed.

The two went down the mountain. Sai Yuhuan found a gong and a wooden mallet in the Dayi Hall. He hit the gong with a mallet in front of the Dayi Hall. The sound of "dong dong clang" resounded throughout the village, and people in their sleep came one after another. When they woke up, they didn't know who was disturbing their dreams, so they reluctantly put on their clothes.

Soon, a man with a drooped head came over, barely holding his eyes open, "First Master, Second Master, what happened?"

He was yawning and his eyelids were still fighting, when the headmaster's voice sounded like a thunderbolt from the blue: "The person has escaped. The person captured by the third brother has escaped!"

"What?" He immediately opened his eyes and became more energetic, "He's run away! Boss, how come he's run away!"

Sai Yuhuan rang the gong again and said, "I guess they haven't escaped from the stronghold. Find someone quickly."

After receiving the order, he turned around and saw that the place was full of people.

Sai Yuhuan pointed at the twenty or thirty people in front of him with a mallet, and knocked on the gong, "What are you doing with the hammer? Find someone quickly, don't let anyone break out of the village."

"Dong-dong-clang, dong-dong-clang."

Sai Yuhuan hit the gong twice in succession, and the sleepy people all woke up. They scattered in twos and threes to look for people, and some of them caught the guy. Sai Yuhuan struck the gong again. Zhang Zhongjian next to her let go of his hand covering his ears and said to her: "Madam, please stop knocking. If you knock again, you will become deaf."

Sai Yuhuan stopped banging the gong and laughed.

The bandits searched the entire village and the surrounding area, but could not find Ye Zelin.

Sai Yuhuan didn't believe that people could fly out of the mountain stronghold, so it must be hidden in some nook and cranny, so he asked people to look through it carefully and not miss any place.

Zhu Fa took a few people to the gate of the cottage to look for someone.

At this time, there were two people squatting under the high table in a certain room in the cottage. They were Hua Fushu and Ye Zelin.

They were looking for Yu Chisu, but Sai Yuhuan discovered it quickly and beat gongs and drums to find someone. The sleeping bandits all got up, and Ye Zelin took Hua Fushu and hid in this room.

The sound of footsteps gradually faded away. Hua Fushu lifted up the floor-length tablecloth and put her head out. The next moment, she was pulled back by Ye Zelin. She lowered her voice and said, "Don't go out, hide for a while."

Hua Fushu whispered back to him: "There is no one outside."

Ye Zelin said: "No one has to hide, maybe they are still outside."

Hua Fushu nodded, very obedient.

After two or three cups of tea, the room was silent. Hua Fushu knew that the bandits outside must still be looking for them. After squatting for a long time, his feet were numb.

She sat down on the ground, stretched her legs, then bent her legs and leaned back.

Suddenly there was a sound, and the flowers were blooming in wonder. Little did she know that there was a secret door behind it, and she fell into it without warning.

She panicked and grabbed Ye Zelin's clothes. Unexpectedly, Ye Zelin was also caught off guard and fell into the secret door with her.

There was a pain in her back. She must have bumped into something. Her arm seemed to be scratched by something. Before she could react, she rolled down again and fell heavily to the ground. However, there was no pain throughout her body, but there was softness underneath her body. Soft human flesh cushion.

The human flesh mat was Ye Zelin. He endured the pain and said, "Fu Shu, come down."

"Oh." Hua Fushu just reacted, got off Ye Zelin, and helped him up in the dark.

Ye Zelin looked at the darkness in front of him and asked, "Is there any Huozhezi?"

Hua Fushu touched her body and took out a small thing, "Yes."

As she spoke, she blew on the fire.

A small flame illuminated his eyes, and Ye Zelin looked around. It was a small secret room, somewhat similar to the underground secret room in Luoyang Xuao Villa, and the thing they hit when they fell down was a big box.

The large square box has about ten openings, six or seven openings on one floor, stacked on two levels.

Hua Fushu looked at the big box curiously and found that the locks of two or three big boxes were broken. "There are so many boxes, what are they packed in?"

"Don't move."

Before Ye Zelin could stop him, Hua Fushu had already opened a large box, and the contents in the box were shocking.

This is actually a silver ingot, one ingot after another.

Hua Fushu picked up a fifty-tael silver ingot and looked at it, "Ye Zelin, look there is a symbol here, it's so strange."

Ye Zelin glanced at the symbols on the silver ingot and couldn't help being surprised. After taking a closer look, he was very sure, "This is official silver, produced by the imperial silver making department."
