Chapter 54: Walking Into a Trap
After offering sacrifices to the five internal organs, Ling Chu did not delay any longer and followed Ge's instructions to find Li Pingguang.
The diners had been whetted by her words just now. When they saw her leaving, they quickly finished the porridge in their bowls, picked up the remaining buns, and hurriedly got up to chase Ling Chu's back.
Ge said that Li Pingguang's house was not far from here. Ling Chu did not get on the carriage, but simply paid the driver and followed Ge through the streets and alleys. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they stopped in front of an inconspicuous house.
"Miss, this is it. I saw Li Pingguang and his companions enter this house with my own eyes." Ge's puppet soul looked at Ling Chu with hope, waiting for her to rescue her daughter.
Ling Chu looked up and saw that the door of the house was closed. He could not hear any movement inside, nor could he see anyone inside.
After going up the steps, Ling Chu raised his hand and knocked on the door.
After waiting for a while, he heard no movement from inside, so Ling Chu simply knocked on the door knocker for more than ten times, and finally an impatient voice came from inside.
"I'm coming, I'm coming, stop knocking..." Hearing the voice, he knew that the person inside was dissatisfied, and his footsteps were heavy and heavy.
Ling Chu raised his eyebrows, this voice was a bit familiar.
There was a noise from inside the door, and the person inside should be moving the bolt.
With the creaking sound of the door opening, the door opened a crack, and a head stuck out from inside, "Who is it...?"
The man was quite alert, his body was still inside the door, only his head stuck out.
"Huh... why is it you?" The impatient voice suddenly turned into surprise.
Ling Chu raised his eyebrows, no wonder it sounded familiar, isn't this the man who went to the steamed bun stall to find Li Pingguang just now?
After Wang Hai came back with Li Pingguang, he was regretting that he didn't get the girl, but he didn't expect that the girl would fall into the trap herself. It seems that even God is helping him.
"Girl, who are you looking for?" Although Wang Hai tried to remain calm, his voice was filled with undisguised excitement.
Ling Chu looked at the big mouth that was almost grinning to the ears and was silent.
So happy to see her coming?
I wonder if he can still laugh after he knows what happened to him.
"I'm looking for Li Pingguang."
"Oh, you're looking for Brother Li, he's in there, come in." Wang Hai didn't care when he heard her words.
Who cares who she's looking for? As long as this girl enters this door, the credit belongs to him, and no one can take it away.
Although excited, Wang Hai didn't forget his identity.
He looked around vigilantly.
Seeing the strangers who came with Ling Chu to watch the excitement not far away, Wang Hai frowned and immediately scolded, "What are you doing here, go, go, this is not the place for you to stay, if you don't leave, I'm going to beat you up."
Seeing his fierce expression, those onlookers couldn't help but retreat timidly.
The lady who had been chatting with Ling Chu earlier looked at Ling Chu with concern, hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to say, "Girl, why don't you come with us?"
When Wang Hai heard what the lady said, his face immediately sank.
But Ling Chu said to the lady before him, "It's okay, don't worry. You go first."
The lady saw that Wang Hai didn't look like a good person, and wanted to persuade him again, but Ling Chu turned to Wang Hai and said, "Aren't you going in?"
Wang Hai was delighted to see that she didn't leave, and immediately smiled enthusiastically, "Come in, come in..."
She shrank her head and stepped aside to make way for the door.
Ling Chu didn't hesitate, raised her foot, and stepped over the threshold.
As soon as Ling Chu stepped in, the door was immediately slammed shut by Wang Hai.
That's not all, Wang Hai quickly inserted the bolt back.
Ling Chu watched him quietly and didn't step forward to stop him.
Ge's puppet soul stood aside, his face full of worry, "Miss Ling, you came in like this, will it be dangerous?"
Before, Ge was only concerned about her daughter, but now seeing Wang Hai inserting the bolt, she remembered that Ling Chu was just like her daughter, a weak little girl.
If she rashly followed her to rescue people, if they bullied her, she would be sorry for her.
Ling Chu said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, it's okay."
Wang Hai had just inserted the bolt, and heard Ling Chu's incoherent words, and asked in confusion, "What did you say."
Ling Chu looked at him steadily, and then said slowly, "Nothing, I'm afraid that if I say it, it will scare you to death."
Wang Hai was stunned, scare him to death?
Then he laughed disdainfully, "Little girl, the person who can scare me to death in this world has not been born yet."
Ling Chu glanced at him, and when he stopped laughing, he said, "It's not a person, it's a puppet."
"Puppet?" Wang Hai laughed even more, "Little girl, I tell you, puppets in this world are not scary, but people are scary."
Wang Hai's voice was not concealed, and the people inside heard it and shouted angrily, "Wang Hai, what are you talking about?"
As the voice was spoken, Li Pingguang walked out quickly, and when he saw Ling Chu, he frowned, "Is it you?"
Li Pingguang didn't expect that this girl actually followed him here.
Wang Hai saw Li Pingguang and his smile disappeared, "Li Pingguang, this time the goods must belong to me."
Ling Chu raised his eyebrows, goods?
Is this referring to her?
"Miss, it's bad, there are not only Li Pingguang and this man in this house, but also five other men and two women." The puppet soul of the Ge family suddenly floated out of the house in a panic.
Just now she was worried about her daughter and wanted to go in to see her, but she found that there were quite a few people in the yard.
"Girl, why don't you leave quickly? You can't handle so many people by yourself. Why don't you report to the police and ask someone to save my daughter?"
Ling Chu was a little surprised to hear that there were other people, but she didn't panic. "It's okay, I can handle it."
Li Pingguang saw her talking to herself in the empty air, and somehow, he suddenly felt a little uneasy. "Who are you talking to?"
Ling Chu looked at him sideways, and didn't hide it from him, and said frankly, "Ge."
Li Pingguang looked at a loss.
Ling Chu saw that he didn't know who Ge was, thought about it, and kindly explained to him, "She is Liu Dongluo's wife, and she asked me to save her daughter."
At this time, Li Pingguang's face changed, and he looked around with suspicious eyes.
Wang Hai, who was standing next to him, looked disdainful, "Girl, stop playing tricks here to scare people."
As soon as Wang Hai finished speaking, a gloomy voice suddenly came from behind, "What tricks?"
Ling Chu turned his head and saw a simple and honest man walking quickly, followed by four men and two women.
When Wang Hai saw the person coming, he immediately greeted him with a flattering face, "Boss Yao."
The boss Yao ignored Wang Hai, but instead looked up and down at the girl standing next to Li Pingguang.
Ling Chu, who was looking at the people in front of him with a raised eyebrow, was shocked. Including Li Pingguang, there were seven men and two women, all of whom looked like they would go to jail.

PS: Every day when I type the thank you list, it is painful and happy.
Since the names of all book friends cannot be copied, they can only be typed by hand. Sometimes it is a headache to encounter special symbols, because those special symbols cannot be typed in the background, and they have to be checked one by one on Baidu. Although the process is a bit of a headache, the names typed by hand are all remembered in my heart.
Thank you for your daily support and love you.
