Chapter One Hundred and Thirty Two: Distraction and Monthly Pass)
When Lian Er came out of the Wucheng Bingma Division station, his face was all white.
He was frightened!
There was no other way. In order to quickly find a breakthrough, Jia Cong's splitting of muscles and bones was too brutal.
The kidnapper only lasted less than half a cup of tea before he said everything.
Lian Er and Qiu Liang, who were watching, were frightened.
In just a short period of time, the kidnapper was tortured to the point where he had a nervous breakdown and urinated in urine. Such a tragic scene shocked the two noble sons.
But I have to say, the effect is also impressive.
As expected, the kidnapper did not act alone, but had a well-organized group who wanted to take advantage of the Lantern Festival to 'make a profit'.
The news that came out of this guy's mouth can't be overstated in one sentence.
They are well-organized and sophisticated, and as far as the abductees know, there are at least thousands of abducted children.
Lian Er and Qiu Liang were furious when they heard this, and almost couldn't help but want to kill someone.
You should know that most of the children who are abducted are children from wealthy families, and many of them are children from official families or even wealthy families.
The behavior of the kidnapper and his gang has seriously offended the vital interests of the powerful class. No wonder Lian Er and Qiu Liang felt the same way and even had murderous intentions.
Fortunately, they still had sense, and when Jia Cong revealed all the information that the kidnapper knew, they no longer cared about this guy's life or death.
It was just his tactics that made Lian Er and Qiu Liang secretly frightened.
How did they know that the inheritance of martial arts and even immortality in the main world has not been cut off, but the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is lacking and it is impossible to practice true energy and immortality, but some methods have been completely preserved.
The Kung Fu practiced by Jia Cong is somewhat similar to the internal martial arts, but of course it is more grandiose than the modern internal martial arts, and is more like the training path of the martial arts saint in the world of "Yang Shen".
Jia Cong didn't take it to heart at all. As for Lian Er and Qiu Liang who were shocked, he didn't care much either.
If you can't stand such a little 'stimulation', it's better to go home honestly. The outside world is too chaotic and not suitable for flowers in the greenhouse to survive.
"What should we do next?"
After just a small interrogation, both Lian Er and Qiu Liang subconsciously regarded Jia Cong as their backbone.
A ruthless person is something that no one dares to ignore at any time.
Not to mention, the current situation is indeed a bit tricky.
The information extracted from the kidnapper's mouth was quite astonishing.
The Paihuazi team that this guy belongs to has a strict organization and clear division of labor, and has become a relatively complete system chain.
There is a front-line kidnapper named Paihua, who is also responsible for taking care of the child. According to what the kidnapper said, there is pretty good force protection.
The kidnapper who was suddenly subdued by Jia Cong was only a low-level member of the group, and his knowledge was quite limited.
He only knew where to gather after successfully stealing the target, but he didn't know anything else.
The meeting point was at the junction of Dongcheng and Nancheng. There were dozens of desperadoes meeting them, which was not easy to deal with at all.
At the very least, Qiu Liang, a half-grown young man who was the commander of the Five Cities Military and Horse Division, was not sure at all.
Seeing Jia Cong looking over with surprise, his handsome face turned red, and he smiled bitterly and said honestly: "With my group of brothers, I don't have much confidence in facing an equal number of desperadoes!"
Now that he had said it, he simply let go of the embarrassment and said helplessly: "The key is, we have to ensure the safety of those abducted children!"
Targets that can be targeted by kidnappers basically have good family backgrounds, and there are even families of powerful officials. If an accident happens because of them when rescuing people, those family members who may have lost their descendants will have to express their anger.
Take it out on them.
"How about we quickly report it to the Shuntian Prefecture and the Ministry of Justice?"
Lian Er's face turned a little pale, it was because he was frightened.
As soon as he heard the word 'desperate', he couldn't help but feel scared, and he had no intention of continuing to participate.
It's just that now I know I'm afraid, it's too late.
"The situation is urgent. It's night time again, and there are only a few people staying in the yamen, so they won't be able to do anything!"
Jia Cong smiled, not giving Lian Er a chance to refuse at all, and said leisurely: "Brother Lian Er, you have to think carefully. If the powerful people who have lost their descendants tonight know about it, I'm afraid they will vent their anger.
Come on us!"
Of course, it is difficult for Jia Cong, a Bai Ding who relies on Rongguo Mansion, to attack, but Lian Er and Qiu Liang, who are in the officialdom, can't even think about running away.
Sure enough, Lian Er and Qiu Liang's expressions changed slightly, and they no longer mentioned any excuses about waiting for the superior's orders.
"Brother Lian, you are responsible for contacting several chief officials of Shuntian Prefecture, as well as the officials above the rank of doctor who are staying behind from the Ministry of Punishment!"
Jia Cong was not polite and directly said: "Remember, never reveal anything in front of the low-level officials and servants of Shuntian Mansion!"
Lian Er felt a little happy in his heart. As long as he didn't have to face the desperado directly, it didn't matter if he had to run errands.
However, Jia Cong's words made him hesitate and asked: "What does third brother mean..."
"That's what Brother Lian thinks. I can't trust those low-level officials and government servants!"
Jia Cong spoke categorically, waving his hand to indicate that Lian Er and the boy were ready to move. Then he turned back to Qiu Liang, who had a complex expression on his face and said, "Commander Qiu, let's go directly to where the kidnappers are gathering!"
"Isn't it too dangerous? Why don't you call a few teams of brothers from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to come over and help!"
Qiu Liang's face was solemn, but his heart was a little drumming. He swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "Otherwise, our combat power and manpower will not be enough!"
He never expected that the concubine of the Rongguo Mansion, whom he had previously despised, would be so decisive and courageous.
Are desperadoes so easy to deal with, and there are quite a few of them.
"Commander Qiu, do you really dare to trust the patrols of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division in other directions?"
Jia Cong's eyes were as sharp as an eagle, and he said coldly: "Besides, if we ask the kidnappers scattered around to take the children to the gathering place, it will be even more difficult to rescue them!"
Are you kidding me? Those gangs of kidnappers have been running rampant in the capital for many years. How is it possible that there are no spies in places like Shuntianfu Yamen and Wucheng Bingma Division?
If these scum hiding in the government offices were informed in advance, there would be no need to take risks. As long as they made a certain noise and captured Hanako, they could quickly alert the kidnappers lurking in the crowd watching the lanterns.
Qiu Liang hesitated when he heard the words. After thinking about it, it was indeed reasonable, but he really didn't have the idea of fighting desperately with the more desperate people.
"Come on, let's go over and take a look first!"
A trace of disdain flashed in Jia Cong's eyes, and he grabbed the boy and ran towards the gathering place of the kidnappers. Behind him were only a dozen of Qiu Liang's confidants, and a nervous and excited boy named Wangcai.
The gang of Qiu Liang's confidants thought that the boss was so enthusiastic that they were filled with admiration and fear in their hearts. They were wondering whether they should just pretend to be cool when they faced off against the desperadoes of the kidnapping gang later?
Little did they know that Qiu Liang was so depressed that he almost vomited blood.
His wrist was grabbed by Jia Cong, as if it was held by a big iron clamp. There was no way to get rid of it. He could only be pulled and ran all the way, but within a moment he was panting like an ox and sweating profusely.
"Brothers, slow down, slow down, I really can't run anymore!"
Seeing that Jia Cong's face was not red and he was out of breath, and he could run for more than ten miles in one breath, Qiu Liang staggered to follow him, while he was out of breath and begging for mercy.
Not only him, but also his confidants were all extremely tired, sweating profusely and almost bursting their alveoli.
On the other hand, Xiaosi Wangcai, who was almost the same as Jia Cong, still had the same expression and calm breathing, as if he was not running at all.
"Have you never practiced before?"
Glancing sideways at Qiu Liang, a half-grown young man, Jia Cong showed no intention of stopping. He just slowed down his running speed to give Qiu Liang room to slow down.
It was just a quick run for less than three miles, and he was so exhausted that he looked like a bear, which was simply embarrassing.
"I've practiced before, but I've never run like this before!"
Qiu Liang's rather handsome face turned red. He didn't know whether it was from running fast or from embarrassment.
"You're not training hard enough. If you meet a powerful gangster with martial arts skills, with your performance, tsk tsk..."
What you say is just rubbing salt into the wound. Why don't you be so cruel?
Qiu Liang was so angry that he wanted to say that he had been riding horses before, so there was no need to work so hard, but when he thought about what happened this time, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart. He smiled bitterly and said, "I made you laugh, I will correct it in the future!"
Jia Cong didn't say anything. He just ran at a constant speed. Under the guidance of Qiu Liang and his confidant, he walked through the streets and alleys to avoid the densely populated main streets. He ran for almost ten miles in one breath, and it only took less than half a day.
Within an hour, they arrived at the gathering place where the kidnappers confessed.
This place is far away from the bustling streets of Dongcheng and is close to Nancheng where many ordinary people live. It is a relatively remote area.
There are not many wealthy people's houses nearby. Common people take a rest early and the crowds are sparse. The darkness of night makes it almost difficult to see.
The gathering place where the kidnappers confessed was the Guandi Temple, which was not very popular. The little sparks were relatively obvious in the dark night.
Obviously, the guards responsible for the response and force of the Kidnapping Group were very careful and did not light torches or lanterns carelessly. Only the faint outline of Guandi Temple could be seen in the distance.
If I hadn't known that this was a gathering place for the kidnapping group, who would have known that this remote Guandi Temple had become a den of thieves?
When they were still more than a mile away, Jia Cong and his entourage slowed down their pace, approached cautiously and quietly, and were mentally prepared for a fight.
Jia Cong didn't give Qiu Liang the slightest chance to retreat. He still held him firmly with one hand while walking at the front, as if he was standing in front of the younger brother behind him.
Anyway, the night was so dark that it was impossible to see Qiu Liang's expression next to him. Jia Congchun thought he was sincere and at the same time whispered: "Let's go to investigate together later, be careful..."
