Chapter 334 Murder Mission
The strange fire spirit cat Xiaolan stayed on Lin Yan's shoulder and kept jumping, looking very happy.
Moreover, it kept squeaking, urging Lin Yan to hurry up. It seemed that it wanted to find its owner Chen Xiaokai.
Lin Yan walked quickly towards a beast-raising workshop on Xidan Street on the west side of Cao Jinshan, and Chen Xiaokai was imprisoned in the workshop.
On the other hand, Chu Yun first took away several ferocious beasts from Cao Jinshan's basement, and then began to follow his duties to govern those involved in the besieging Lin Yan and the kidnapping of His Royal Highness the Princess.
In addition to Cao Jinshan and Ye Nanqing, Chu Yun also interrogated several people who kidnapped His Royal Highness. As for the rest, they were allowed to leave temporarily because it was impossible to detain them all, but they were restricted to Nancang County and were not allowed to flee.
Chu Yun is not afraid of other people's affairs.
It was not a big deal. If these people still had to flee abroad, they would face his severe pursuit. It was a foolish thing that would not be worth the loss. I believe that as long as they were not fools, they would not do this.
Soon, many of the constables in Nancang County returned to their respective homes. Although they were in a bad mood and were even a little scared, they were not locked up in a cell like the county magistrate. They did not have to be a prisoner at the same time, which made them feel very grateful.
After all, they all offended His Royal Highness the Princess of the Imperial City tonight!
If His Highness the Princess is unreasonable or a little narrow-minded, they will suffer a lot!
However, two people did not go home immediately.
The two warriors who were more powerful than Lin Yan and were afraid of Lin Yan.
Cao Jinshan's wife who rushed over after hearing the news found them.
Although the two of them are not the warrior power under Nancang County and have free identities, Nancang County is their home. In addition, they are superb, so they will inevitably often come into contact with the senior management of Nancang County.
For example, the county magistrate Ye Nanqing and the richest man in the county, Cao Jinshan, have found them and asked them to do many secret things.
For warriors of their level, once they do something secret, they will naturally receive a considerable reward. It is conceivable that Ye Nanqing and Cao Jinshan have found them more than once, and they must have done a lot of things, and these things are usually very difficult.
This time, Cao Jinshan’s wife had another tricky thing to deal with.
This woman who is very independent and has always been the right-hand man in Cao Jinshan's business, offered a quotation of 200,000 taels of gold.
Two hundred thousand taels of gold, even for these two people, is not a small amount.
The conditions given by the woman were very simple and clear, that was, they could kill Lin Yan and regain the strange fire spirit cat.
Cao Jinshan's wife understood that once her husband was in prison, he might not be able to get out of business again. It would be difficult for the Cao family to continue in the future, so the whole family was over.
And the "culprit" is Lin Yan!
She wished Lin Yan would die so that she could let out a sigh of anger.
So she didn't hesitate to spend so much money to ask someone to do it.
She didn't dare to move the princess, but she knew that Lin Yan was just an ordinary friend that the princess met. Now that the princess has left with General Chu, Lin Yan is alone, and someone will kill Lin Yan, and it will be impossible for him to know.
As for the strange fire spirit cat, it was not something she had to get, she just asked it out by the way.
The two warriors were silent for a while, and then they did not take into account Cao Jinshan's wife's presence and directly discussed.
"Brother, I think that young man surnamed Lin is only a fate with His Highness Princess. Now His Highness Princess will definitely return to the palace immediately, and that kid is just a warrior from the outer city. If we still stay in Nancang County, we can definitely find him in a short time with our familiarity with Nancang County." One person said to the other.
Cao Jinshan's wife interrupted, "This kid must have gone to the factory on Xidan Street now, and the owner of the Yihuo Lingcat is imprisoned there. It seems that he knows the owner of the Yihuo Lingcat. If you make a decision faster, you may be able to find him there. If you slow down, you are afraid that he will leave. It will definitely be difficult to find him again in the future."
The man who spoke before seemed unhungry and smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Even if we let him go tonight, with our ability to investigate, we will definitely find him before he leaves Nancang County."
Then the man said to his elder brother: "Brother, this kid has no background and his strength is lower than us. I think he can do it for 200,000 taels of gold. Besides, it is not difficult for us to do this little thing for Boss Cao a favor."
It was obvious that this person agreed to take over the task entrusted by Cao Jinshan’s wife.
Of course, the reason that prompted him to do this was because they felt insulted. If it weren't for Lin Yan, there would be nothing to do with His Royal Highness, and they wouldn't have to kneel on their knees and bow to others when they paid homage to His Royal Highness. He couldn't stand it, so he took his anger on Lin Yan.
The eldest brother pondered for a while, then looked at Cao Jinshan's wife and said, "There is no need to pay a deposit for 200,000 taels of gold for the first time. Our brothers completed the task and brought it back to the boy's head and then asked for compensation, but."
The man paused.
"If you have any other requirements, just ask." Cao Jinshan's wife said expressionlessly.
She knew that she had asked these two people for now, and the other party would definitely add more benefits, but he didn't care. As long as he could kill Lin Yan and calm the anger in her heart, she could also give her husband Cao Jinshan an explanation.
The eldest brother continued, "Madam, after killing that kid and the owner of the strange fire spirit cat, the strange fire spirit cat will be returned to us."
Of course he knew the preciousness of the strange fire spirit cat, "Madam, you know that even if you get the strange fire spirit cat, with the current strength and energy of the Cao family, it may be difficult to protect this precious spirit beast, and it will bring you danger."
Cao Jinshan's wife snorted softly.
She was not trying to get the strange fire spirit cat, she just wanted to kill Lin Yan. Even if the strange fire spirit cat is precious, she was ready to give up. She added this one before, just for the current bargaining.
So, she deliberately raised her face and pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Even if I don't train the strange fire spirit cat, I can make some money by selling it to the buyer, and you don't have this buyer. However, since I'm asking you for your business, I can't refuse this strange fire spirit cat, but you should also reduce the rewards."
The three of them discussed it again and finally decided that the two warriors were responsible for killing Lin Yan and the owner of the Yihuo Lingcao, who belonged to them. After the matter was completed, Cao Jinshan's wife paid them 100,000 taels of gold as reward.
At this time, almost half an hour had passed.
Lin Yan had successfully found a small room where debris were piled up in the factory.
According to what Cao Jinshan said, Chen Xiaokai was locked up here alone.
"Squeak, squeak." The strange fire spirit cat couldn't wait to shout outside the door.
There was a sudden movement in the closed room.
Chen Xiao opened his vacant voice and heard the sound of a muffled sound.
"Xiaolan, is it you? Did I hear it right?"
Although the voice was weak, it showed that Chen Xiaokai, who was imprisoned, might have been tortured, but even Lin Yan could easily feel the joy contained in his voice.
The alien fire spirit cat screamed like a "squeak", and then a large amount of gray-white white silent fire spewed out of its mouth.
The fire of Baiji has reached the level of Transcendence Realm, with extremely high temperatures and can easily melt gold and stone!
No matter how tightly the wooden door is closed, no matter how thick the thickness is, it is impossible to resist it.
With a "bang", the wooden door was blown away by the white silence fire, and many of the tiny wood chips turned black directly, and many of them were even ignited when they were still flying in the air!
The strange fire spirit cat couldn't wait to rush in.
After Lin Yan followed up, he found that the area of the custard room was less than ten square meters, and there was an unpleasant smell inside. It was estimated that after being restricted from personal freedom, Chen Xiaokai had never left, and all the food, drink, defecation and urination were inside.
Chen Xiaokai was lying in a yellow rattan chair with pale complexion and disorganized hair. He looked very weak and probably lost more than half of his weight!
Although the fat man in the past was still there, his very little flesh and dry skin made Chen Xiaokai like a twilight old man who was stuck on the edge of his life!
"Squeak, squeak."
The strange fire spirit cat was very psychic. Seeing that the owner had become like this, he jumped eagerly onto the rattan chair. His little claws kept stroking Chen Xiaokai's face, and his big eyes were filled with tears!
Lin Yan couldn't help frowning.
Chen Xiaokai did not have a rope tied up on his body, but the situation was much worse than being tied up.
Because I didn't even have to tie up the ropes, I wasn't afraid that Chen Xiaokai would run away, and there wasn't a guard next to me!
Given Cao Jinshan's treacherousness, he naturally knew that Chen Xiaokai was a warrior, so how could he not beware of Chen Xiaokai's escape?
But Cao Jinshan threw Chen Xiaokai on the rattan chair like this!
It’s not that Chen Xiaokai was willing to lie on the rattan chair, it was because he was thrown into it!
Lin Yan's eyes fell on Chen Xiaokai's slightly shaking hands and feet. Chen Xiaokai could not control this natural shaking of his body, just like a person who is addicted to drugs will twitch when there is no poison to suck.
Lin Yan sighed when he saw it.
Without going forward to grab it, he also knew that Chen Xiaokai was useless, and his tendons and leg tendons were actually broken!
"Haha," Chen Xiaokai was still rubbing against him with a doting fire spirit cat, his eyes fell on Lin Yan, and a smile appeared on his face with some difficulty, "It turns out that brother Lin Yan came to save me. I said, that old bastard Cao Jinshan couldn't let Xiaolan escape. Brother Lin, you saved my life again."
Lin Yan's brows frowned even more, deliberately avoiding asking Chen Xiaokai about things. Lin Yan said: "It's not easy to find you. I originally thought you were still in Xiaoshui City, but I didn't expect that we would meet in Zhongzhou City."
"Yes, it's a coincidence." Chen Xiaokai continued to smile, as if he didn't care about his current tragic experience. He struggled for a while, barely sat upright, and said, "It's so damn good to be alive."
After saying that, Chen Xiaokai took a few breaths. Although the smell was bad, Chen Xiaokai seemed to smell the breath of freedom from it.
"Stop talking, go out first." Lin Yan directly carried Chen Xiaokai on his back.
"The last time I was on the mountain road outside the suburbs of Xiaoshui City, you were carrying me on my back, Brother Lin Yan, thank you." Chen Xiaokai said sincerely.
Lin Yan sighed in his heart.
Although he and Chen Xiaokai did not have much friendship, he still had a good impression of Chen Xiaokai. Suddenly, he saw a living fat man suddenly become like this, so he naturally felt very touched.
Chapter completed!
