Volume 1 The First Path of Cultivation Chapter 24 The Girls in the Capital Frequently Disappear
Xiaohuan's disappearance and no one can detect the abnormality, the only thing that feels something wrong is Li Qingquan, who is still locked up in the library pavilion, it stands to reason that Xiaohuan no matter whether he finds a helper or not, he should come back at night to deliver food to himself, but there is no movement at all.
Not only that, he didn't come the next morning, Li Qingquan was a little anxious, but no matter how he asked for help in the library pavilion, he didn't answer. It turned out that the master knew that Xiaohuan was taking care of her, so he didn't arrange more people to guard her, and Li Qingquan had nothing to do except be in a hurry.
In the study of the Li Mansion, Li Yuanwai was still writing something on the desk, and the lady sat on the side with a worried face and kept chattering: "Master, Quan'er has already known that she is wrong, why don't you let her out?"
Li Yuanwai also didn't stop writing, "I don't know what is wrong, I don't think she knows anything wrong, so let's just keep it closed, so as not to cause extraneous branches." ”
The lady actually began to cry: "You hard-hearted master, Quan'er is also your own flesh and blood anyway, why don't you feel distressed at all?"
Li Yuanwai couldn't bear Mrs. crying and making trouble several times a day, so he had to put down his pen, turned his head to stare at Mrs. who was pretending to cry even more, and said with a smile: "Okay, madam, I'll go with you to ask Quan'er, if you know your mistake, why not let her out?"
Madame quickly wiped her tears and said with a smile: "Master Yingming, let's go?"
Li Yuanwai shook his head, and he didn't know what he was thinking about after his wife.
Before I arrived at the library, I heard my daughter's voice coming, and my wife hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Quan'er, my mother is here, my mother is here to let you out." ”
Li Qingquan was puzzled: "Mother, why are you here, Xiaohuan? Did Dad lock Xiaohuan up too? You told Dad that the fault is mine, and Xiaohuan is also forced to do so." ”
Before Madame could understand what Quan'er was saying, Li Yuanwai was a little anxious, and said, "Hasn't Xiaohuan been taking care of you?
Li Qingquan said: "But Xiaohuan didn't come over for almost a day, and he said that he would move the rescuers......
"What? I really don't repent, do you still want to escape by yourself? Do you put me in your eyes?" When Lao Ye heard that Xiaohuan was actually going to move the rescuers, he suddenly became angry, and he shook his head and left.
Mrs. sighed a few times, and wanted to persuade the master again, so she said to Li Qingquan: "Quan'er, if you are wronged again, I will persuade your father, you just have to admit your mistake." ”
Li Qingquan didn't think about who was right and who was wrong now, and wanted to stop his mother and ask her to help find Xiaohuan, but he found that his mother had already gone away, Li Qingquan sat down and thought, "Whether Xiaohuan finds a rescuer or not, he should come back in the evening...... Hope she's okay, please. ”
After Mrs. Li followed her master back to the study, she was about to open her mouth to persuade her master again, but the master had a serious expression and said, "I know what you have to say, but I am protecting her by not letting Quan'er go now, and I suspect that something may have happened to Xiaohuan." ”
Mrs. Li raised her head suddenly, covered her mouth and said, "Don't joke, master, Xiaohuan ...... her"
"Don't worry, madam, I'll figure it out. After speaking, he called the housekeeper and said, "Housekeeper, where did Xiaohuan leave the house for the last time?"
The housekeeper obviously grasped the movements of the maids, and replied without hesitation: "The last time Xiaohuan finished delivering food to the young lady, he went directly out of the house to an inn, and the villain sent the family came back and said that he came back after Xiaohuan entered the inn, and he went to that inn many times before, so there must be no danger, so he didn't follow again." ”
As soon as Li Yuanwai heard it, he knew where Xiaohuan had gone, and muttered: "It turned out to be your kid, housekeeper, take the people from the house, and go with me." ”
Mrs. didn't figure it out on the side, and was about to ask but was interrupted by Li Yuanwai: "You stay at home, you don't have to come with me, it's inconvenient to say more at this time, I can only suspect that the kid saved by Quan'er may be related to the recent disappearance of the girl." ”
Madame looked up at the master, her eyes were full of horror, "Master, you mean that Xiaohuan is his poisonous hand?"
Li Yuanwai didn't say anything more, just nodded.
Chen Changan was still cultivating in the inn at this time, and he didn't know that someone was coming to the door to find trouble, and it took him a long time before he realized that something was wrong, why was it so quiet downstairs when it was originally noisy?
Chen Changan wanted to open the door and go out to have a look, but the door was pushed open directly, and the person who came in was a middle-aged man wearing an official uniform, the person who came in glanced at Chen Changan curiously, and said, "You are Chen Changan?"
Chen Changan naturally nodded, and was about to speak when he saw the man ask again: "Have you seen the maid Xiaohuan I helped before?"
He, Chen Changan, was not stupid, so he naturally understood who the person who came was coming, and hurriedly hugged his fists and said, "Chen Changan has seen Master Li." ”
"Don't fix those useless things, if you hand over Xiaohuan, and then follow me to the yamen to surrender, I can't say that I can suffer a little less!"
Chen Changan looked confused, what is this?" ”
Master Li wiped his beard and sneered: "Then tell me where Xiaohuan went? She didn't return home after seeing you, you are the most suspicious, even if you are not the murderer behind the scenes, I am afraid that you are also an accomplice, right?"
Chen Changan said helplessly: "Do you suspect that I caught Xiaohuan?"
Li Yuanwai suddenly took a few steps forward, his eyes narrowed into a slit, "It's not just Xiaohuan, right?"
Chen Chang'an frowned slightly, feeling that this Lord Li was the murderer of the girl's disappearance, so he was about to explain, "My lord, it has nothing to do with me at this time, I haven't been here for more than ten days, how can I be the murderer of that case?"
"If you want to explain, come with me to the yamen to explain? ”
Chen Changan was speechless for a while, this Lord Li was afraid that he would not be carried away by the bounty, so he regarded himself as a murderer? But he was not good at hurting them, so he had to urge his talent to "hide" and disappear directly from everyone's eyes.
When Lord Li saw this scene, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said: "It's this talent, he is really the murderer, come here, close all the doors and windows of the inn, don't let him escape." ”
Chen Changan, who was hiding in front of everyone, heard Li Yuanwai's words, and secretly said that it was not good, pushed open the window behind him, and fled directly against the wind. Even Chen Changan himself didn't notice that he had also activated the "Wind Control" talent under the "hiding" talent, and if this scene was seen by the top monks on the mountain, I was afraid that he would cut him into slices for study.
Li Yuanwai saw that the window was opened suddenly, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that people would escape, but he was not frustrated at all, if he could catch the murderer so easily, the palace would not post the imperial list.
But now that I've found out who the murderer is, it's easy to do.
Chen Chang'an's mind is still full of questions, why did Master Li directly confirm that he was the murderer after he used his "hiding" talent?
Now the top priority is to rescue Xiaohuan as soon as possible, if Xiaohuan is really arrested, then he has to rescue her no matter what, or go to Miss Qingquan first, explain the matter, and now the whole capital can believe in herself, probably only Miss Qingquan.
