What's the matter with the male supporting role of salted fish when the plot collapsed?

Facing the sudden appearance of the person, Li Qingya was unprepared, and because it was difficult to dodge in the water, he was thrown solidly and sank back into the water.

For a moment, my ears were filled with the sound of water fluctuations, and all the hustle and bustle was separated into another world. The candlelight on the shore was shattered into golden brilliance by the ripples, and the scenery became vaguely broken, and only the person in front of me was real.

This is an eleven or twelve-year-old girl in red. Although she is young, she is already extremely bright and charming.The willow eyebrows are curved, the phoenix eyes are long and narrow, and the vermilion lips are not red...the most appropriate description is as gorgeous as peaches and plums, she is like the most rotten peach blossom in March.

The "girl" also looked at the person who was hit by her in astonishment: a woman?

Li Qingya only put on men's clothes, the outline of the skeleton has not changed back, it is still slender and soft, with a woman's face.

The bundled long hair was scattered when I just entered the water to explore, rippling around the beautiful face like algae, so clear and peerless, unstained by mortal dust, it was hard to tell whether it was a human being or the river god at the bottom of the water.

After a brief daze, the girl suddenly started to choke on the water, and her limbs frantically moved—she couldn't swim.

Li Qingya quickly grabbed the girl's waist and led her to swim to the shore.

She was very decisive when she dived, but when she was drowning, she was still holding on to Li Qingya's skirt - she didn't want to die.

After being rescued, the girl coughed violently while holding her chest, and her lips began to turn purple, which was a sign of serious choking. Li Qingya used spiritual power to help her drain the water from her lungs.

The girl quickly returned to normal. She was very surprised by this magic trick, but she didn't say anything, she pursed her lips, got up and ran.

Li Qingya noticed that the girl was not wearing shoes, and the soles of her feet were already dripping with blood, but she seemed to feel no pain, and ran towards the distance without looking back.

As soon as she ran away, a group of thugs chased after her. They seemed to be the group of people who were making noise on the shore when the girl was diving. Li Qingya didn't pay attention to what they were shouting at that time. Now it sounds that the girl was originally a runaway from a certain brothel. slave, and these people came to capture her.

There were a lot of people, but not all of them were from the brothel where the girls were.

According to the rules of Huajie, once there is a fugitive slave, all the brothels will work together to hunt them down, and sometimes the government will help, so once a woman is sold in, it is difficult to escape by her own strength.

It's like a person who can't swim falls into the water and can only drown after struggling in vain!

Li Qingya belatedly realizes that what he just did may not be considered as saving lives, and there is a more terrifying world on the shore.

It's just the misery of the mortal world, how much can monks care about?

There are also prostitutes present. These people seem to be watching a play, and they keep booing and applauding. Some are telling the girl to run faster, and some are telling the thugs to catch up. They don't have any position, but a group of people who want the show to be more exciting. numb spectators.

The prostitute in the client's arms also smiled at the right time, but when he quietly looked at the girl's back, he showed complicated eyes.

It seems that there have been people who have run across the long street desperately for the faint hope of freedom.

who is it?

Is it themselves?

Maybe, can't remember.

……

After landing, Li Qingya found a place where no one was around, dried his clothes and hair with spells, rearranged his appearance, and walked towards the main entrance of Man Ting Fang along the dark alley.

If the Yanliu Lane outside is a gorgeous coat, then these dark alleys are the bodies covered with abscesses under the coat, and all the miserable and not gorgeous things are thrown here.

A piece of white forearm that fell out by the side of the road almost startled him. Looking along, it was a slightly old woman. Her clothes slid down to her arms, revealing a body that had passed by years. A short black man was lying on his back. Stirring on her body, and her expression was numb, and she didn't respond to it.

In this dark alley, there are many prostitutes who are so old that they can only exchange their last youth with traffickers and pawns for food and clothing.

Li Qingya looked away, and walked over at a faster pace.

There are also men other than prostitutes and thugs here, and most of them are engaged in shady business...

Li Qingya tried to inquire about the news from those idlers standing on the street, but they were not interested in answering Li Qingya, until they saw the money, they only uttered a few words——

missing person?

It's no surprise that one or two people are missing in this kind of place.

But there are things you can ask.

It seems to be Man Tingfang and Heyue Tower, there are one or two cheap and low-class maids on the left and right, and there is nothing to care about.

Xiao Dong'er?

I know.

Man Tingfang's new girl is very popular. She is only 13 years old. She looks like a delicate flower. She has a sweet and spicy temperament. A woman like her, no, a girl, is the most pleasing to men.This time the person ran away, Man Tingfang was at a loss.

Who did she run with?

Who knows.There were quite a few people who wanted to redeem her, but of course Man Tingfang refused to let them go until she had earned enough. Maybe she couldn't wait to run away with a benefactor.

The prostitute who answered was lazily curling her hair, her eyes glanced at Li Qingya from time to time, but she was not as intimate as when facing other men, she was not interested in wasting time on "women".

After inquiring about what he wanted to know, Li Qingya left the dark alley.When he returned to the main street, he looked up at the rotten vanity, and sighed that the demon cultivator had indeed found an excellent hiding place.

Back at Man Tingfang, Shao Ling'er had already ordered the food and drink, and was sitting in the hall watching the singing and dancing with great interest, but she got used to it quickly.

Li Qingya walked over and sat down: "Don't touch the things here." Who knows if Moxiu would have set up an ambush in advance and drugged them.

Shao Linger replied: "I still know this."

Li Qingya turned over an empty glass, wiped it clean, and put it in front of her: "Get me a glass of water."

Although Shao Ling'er is a sword cultivator, she can use spells to condense water out of her as a water and wood dual spiritual root.

Seeing Li Qingya commanding her so confidently, Shao Ling'er was not happy: "Come up after drinking in the river!"

Li Qingya lowered her eyes and said softly, "Good sister~"

Shao Linger showed a disgusted expression: "Disgusting!"

But after scolding, she still got Li Qingya a glass of water.

After drinking the water, Li Qingya asked: "What did you find here?" He used sound transmission to enter secrets in this sentence.

Shao Ling'er understood, and changed the way of conversation: "I don't see any, but there are a lot of gossip."

"First of all, the relationship between Xiaodong'er and Ranyue is not as good as it is said. Ranyue treats Xiaodong'er like her own sister, but Xiaodong'er doesn't like Ranyue very much, and often speaks ill of her behind her back. I also tripped her up, and I don't know what Ranyue is trying to protect her."

"Secondly, Man Tingfang's behind-the-scenes boss seems to have taken a fancy to Xiao Dong'er recently, and took special care of her. During the time before her disappearance, Xiao Dong'er was absolutely in the limelight."

Li Qingya listened for a while, but didn't comment on it: "The doubt now is why Moxiu put so many unremarkable maidservants and didn't catch them, but wanted to catch a popular girl who was in the limelight. And the boss faced the disappearance of his cash cow, And why didn't you make any noise?"

Shao Ling'er thought for a moment, and suddenly realized: "You mean that the boss and Moxiu are colluding, and they are deliberately concealing the news!"

Li Qingya: "High probability."

"Let's ask the boss!" Shao Ling'er said as she got up and was about to leave.

Li Qingya stopped her: "You run so fast, do you know where the boss is?"

Man Tingfang's boss is extremely mysterious, few people know his true identity, usually the shopkeeper is in charge.

"Then arrest the shopkeeper and ask!"

Li Qingya sighed: "Junior Sister, why are you working so hard for a bait? It's not good to startle the snake." Their purpose is to lure the demon cultivator, and the investigation is second.

Shao Linger was dissatisfied: "Don't you have the slightest desire to win? Don't you want to challenge yourself when you meet an enemy?"

Li Qingya shrugged: No, I don't want to.How could salted fish have the desire to win?What is the desire to win?Can I eat it?

"Why run back and forth when you can wait for the fish to take the bait?"

He was unwilling to act, and Shao Ling'er did not dare to be reckless alone, she sat back at the table angrily, her face full of displeasure.

Li Qingya was still in the mood to joke with her: "Junior Sister said that Moxiu would bite that bait? I think he will like Junior Sister more."

Shao Linger replied: "Senior sister is more beautiful and attractive."

Li Qingya showed a surprised expression: "Really? I think so too."

Shao Ling'er didn't expect him to respond shamelessly, and rolled her eyes: "Sexy man."

……

In the middle of the night, the two returned to the inn where they stayed.After personally sending Shao Ling'er into the room, Li Qingya said solemnly: "You should stay in the room tonight, don't wander around."

Shao Linger was alert: "What are you going to do? I'll go with you!" She also wanted to investigate the case!Li Qingya can't eat alone behind her back!

Li Qingya: "I am enough for this matter alone, and it is easier to take the bait if we separate Moxiu."

Shao Linger was still reluctant.

Li Qingya approached her ear and coaxed in a low voice: "Don't make trouble, be good. Be careful after I leave. Once Moxiu appears, immediately send a signal to Senior Sister Mo! Don't put yourself in danger."

This exhortation could not be described as not being gentle and caring, Shao Ling'er didn't understand why she could see the handsomeness in Li Qingya's current woman's face.She blushed, pulled her mouth, and cursed in a low voice: "Smelly shameless!" She actually seduced her junior sister!

But this attitude also shows that she agrees with Li Qingya's decision.

Li Qingya who was scolded couldn't understand it, he was clearly worried about her telling her to be careful, why is it so shameless?

He was full of depression and still couldn't figure it out, he sighed: Forget it, he should stop trying to understand things like women.

That night, Wen Wenfeng's third disciple once again felt fear of women, and further strengthened his inner belief of not being married or dating.

……

Li Qingya was going to find Man Tingfang's boss.

Without Shao Ling'er, apart from telling her the reason for attracting Moxiu to bite the bait, he also didn't know whether Moxiu was with the boss, so in order to avoid unexpected situations and not being able to protect her in time, he simply acted alone up.

Man Tingfang's boss is also the biggest boss in Yanliu Lane, and it is he who single-handedly turned the scattered brothels into Yanliu Lane with strict management.It makes the pornography industry, which originally relies on the exploitation of women to make profits, programmed and scaled up.

He also used the money he earned from prostitutes to train eagles and dogs, buy dignitaries, and collude with the government to further consolidate and protect his property.

Because of the existence of Yanliu Lane, human trafficking has been rampant in Yucheng and the surrounding areas in recent years. I don't know how many women from good families are abducted and sold there every year.

He didn't find out the real identity of the boss of Yanliu Lane, but he got a corner of Man Tingfang's ledger, which was signed by the boss.The boss's study must have his handwriting, so that his mansion can be found by tracing the source.

However, as I said before, it is difficult to find things based on broad clues such as handwriting. Li Qingya does not have such powerful spiritual power and spiritual consciousness as Nie Qingxuan, so he can only use stupid methods to divide Yucheng into several districts. Check out an area.

It's just that if the boss doesn't live in Yucheng at all, there's nothing he can do.

After more than an hour of searching, he finally found the same handwriting in the study of a certain house, in addition to some cryptic letters about Yanliu Lane.

It seems that the owner of this place is the boss of Yanliu Lane.

He caught a servant outside the study and learned that it was the study of a wealthy businessman named He Yizhi.However, when he asked where He Yizhi was, he was told that He Yizhi died unexpectedly more than ten days ago and was only buried a few days ago.

Li Qingya was extremely surprised.

More than ten days ago?That was about the time Moxiu fled to Yucheng.

Could it have anything to do with it?

Moreover, such an intricate industrial chain in Yanliuxiang cannot be separated from the operation of the big boss. He Yizhi is dead, so who is managing it now?And who is protecting Moxiu?

In addition, he did not find important things such as Yanliu Lane's house deed, land deed, or the girls' deeds of sale in the study just now. Did they not be placed here, or were they taken away?If you find these, can you find the person behind it?

Li Qingya's brows were furrowed, thinking that he could catch Moxiu's feet through the boss's line, and change from passive to active, but unexpectedly, the fog became thicker and thicker.

The collected information is in a mess in my head, I can't find a clue...
