Chapter 139 The Maid is Missing

Xiao Jinghan looked at Luo Lingyue anxiously looking for her two maids, and couldn't help but feel a sense of pity in his heart.

He comforted her softly, "Linglong and Liuli both know some martial arts, and ordinary people can hardly do anything to them. Besides, it looks peaceful and quiet here, and there are no signs of fighting. I have already asked the guards to search around again, and I believe there will be news soon."

As time went by, the sky gradually darkened. After searching everywhere, the guards still could not find any trace of Linglong and Liuli.

Luo Lingyue was becoming more and more anxious. When she first came to this world, these two maids had been serving her wholeheartedly, but now they were missing. How could she not be worried?

In Luo Lingyue's mind, Linglong and Liuli are no longer just ordinary maids, but more like two sisters in her heart.

They had been through many ups and downs with her and had deep feelings for each other. At this moment, Luo Lingyue was extremely anxious and kept praying that nothing would happen to them.

"Miss!" A clear and crisp voice came from afar, and Luo Lingyue's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down in her stomach.

Luo Lingyue looked at the two maids' excited faces and couldn't help but frown and asked seriously, "Where did you run to? Do you know how long we have been looking for you? What if you encounter danger in this unfamiliar place?"

Liuli pouted and muttered, "Miss! The people here are very friendly. There is no danger at all!"

Linglong quickly pulled Liuli's sleeve, signaling her not to continue. Then, Linglong quickly walked to Luo Lingyue and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Miss, I made you worry! Liuli and I just went to send an old lady home. But, Miss, the old lady told us a big secret here!"

Luo Lingyue raised her eyebrows and asked curiously: "Oh? What secret?"

Linglong leaned close to Luo Lingyue's ear and said carefully, "Girls in Luoxia Town mysteriously disappear on the day of releasing river lanterns every year once they turn sixteen. The old woman said that these girls were actually married to the river god as brides!"

Luo Lingyue frowned slightly and said softly: "Let's go back to the inn first!" Then she turned around and led everyone back to the inn.

When they returned to the inn, they saw Luo Lingfeng staggering in with three lotus lanterns in his hands and a red face. He smelled strongly of alcohol and was obviously a little drunk.

Seeing this, Luo Lingyue couldn't help but feel a little unhappy. She turned to look at the servant who followed Luo Lingfeng and asked in a slightly reproachful tone: "Why is the Sixth Young Master so drunk?"

The servant looked around cautiously, then lowered his voice and answered, "It was the owner of the tavern that invited the Sixth Young Master to drink at noon. I tried to dissuade him many times, but the Sixth Young Master insisted on drinking, and I couldn't stop him!"

Luo Lingyue sighed helplessly, and then ordered the servant, "Hurry up and help the Sixth Young Master into the room to rest!" The servant hurriedly responded, walked forward, helped Luo Lingfeng up, and sent him into the room.

After making arrangements for Luo Lingfeng, Luo Lingyue said to everyone: "Everyone has worked hard today, let's rest early! We still have to get up early and travel tomorrow." After that, she went back to her room to rest.

After everyone went to bed, Luo Lingyue tiptoed to the door of Luo Lingfeng's room. She gently pushed the door open, walked into the room, and was surprised to see Xiao Jinghan sitting there.

Xiao Jinghan smiled slightly: "I came here to talk to Sixth Brother about something."

Luo Lingyue nodded to him and walked to the table and sat down. Luo Lingfeng poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, and Luo Lingyue took it and drank it all.

Putting down the teacup, Luo Lingyue looked at Luo Lingfeng and asked, "Sixth Brother, did you gain anything tonight?"

Luo Lingfeng was not drunk at all at this time. He said angrily, "I suspect there is a base for trafficking young girls in Luoxia Town! At noon today in that tavern, the shopkeeper was very strange and kept urging us to stay in Luoxia Town for one more night."

Luo Lingfeng clenched his fists tightly and continued, "And I also found that the waiters in the tavern don't look like ordinary people. The shopkeeper knows the rules of the brothels in the capital city very well."

Luo Lingyue frowned: "We also noticed it when we went to release river lanterns at night. There was not even a single young girl to be seen in the entire Luoxia Town. The locals said that those girls became the brides of the river god!"

Xiao Jinghan said calmly: "These clues alone cannot prove beyond a doubt that Luoxia Town is the den for trafficking young girls!"

Luo Lingfeng scratched his head and frowned, "I have seen a lot of notices in this town looking for missing girls, and these girls all passed through Luoxia Town and stayed overnight before mysteriously disappearing. So no matter what, we have to be extra careful tonight!"

Luo Lingyue nodded in agreement and said softly, "This afternoon, Prince Xiao and I noticed that someone seemed to be following us secretly, but at that time we mistakenly thought that they were assassins sent by our enemies. Now that I think about it carefully, they are most likely coming for me and the two maids!"

Luo Lingfeng quickly asked: "Linglong and Liuli have fallen asleep, right? Have you arranged guards to guard them?"

Luo Lingyue smiled and comforted him: "Sixth brother, don't worry! There are already guards responsible for protecting them!"

However, before Luo Lingyue could finish her words, several dull noises suddenly came from outside the house, as if someone had fallen to the ground.

The faces of the three people in the room suddenly became extremely ugly. They quickly stood up and hurriedly pushed open the door to see what was going on.

All the guards standing outside Linglong and Liuli's rooms were lying at the door, while the door of the inn's room was open.

Luo Lingyue was extremely anxious. She immediately stepped forward to investigate, but was stopped by Xiao Jinghan. Luo Lingfeng frowned and said in a deep voice, "This is smoke! Everyone must be careful!"

When he walked into the house and took a closer look, he found that Linglong and Liuli were no longer in the house!

Luo Lingfeng was horrified. He hurried to the doors of the next door and knocked on them, shouting, "Hurry up! Everyone, get up! Linglong and Liuli have been kidnapped!"

After a loud noise and commotion, all the guards in the inn woke up from their sleep alertly.

Instantly, the entire inn fell into chaos. At the same time, other guests were woken up one after another and were horrified to find that their own daughters or sisters had mysteriously disappeared!

The guards acted quickly and dragged the innkeeper in front of everyone. Luo Lingfeng's eyes were stern, and he held a sharp sword in his hand. He did not hesitate to press the innkeeper's throat and said sternly: "Tell me! Who kidnapped these people? If you tell me a lie, I will never tolerate it!" His voice was full of majesty and oppression, which made everyone present feel afraid.

The innkeeper said indifferently: "I am an honest innkeeper. Your people are missing! What does it have to do with me?"
