Volume 1 The First Path of Cultivation Chapter 26 The Missing Girl Broke Out at Night
Li Qingquan's private house is really a good place, the alley is remote and uninhabited, and no one will notice Chen Changan at all, which is very convenient for the two of them.
However, now the two of them have no clue for the time being, Chen Changan said: "We think we should first check where Xiaohuanshi disappeared and see if there is anything missing." ”
Li Qingquan nodded, "Okay, after Xiaohuan came out of your inn that day, he must have gone back to the Li Mansion directly to inform me that the normal route has a large population during the day, and the murderer will not do anything on the route that day." ”
After a pause, Li Qingquan continued: "Xiaohuan should have taken a shortcut in order to return home quickly, and that day the route would pass through three sections of hidden streets, which were the routes we escaped from when we ran away from home. Her accident can only be in these three locations, the first is Wine Lane, then Tianfu Lane, and finally Wanjin Lane. ”
Chen Changan nodded frequently after listening to Miss Li Qingquan's inference, and secretly rejoiced that he had rescued her, otherwise he was not familiar with the capital at all, and he didn't know where to start.
Chen Changan said: "Then let's go to this wine alley first." ”
The two glanced at each other and nodded at the same time, just in case, Chen Changan naturally "hid" to avoid being seen and causing unnecessary trouble.
Li Qingquan naturally changed out of the red dress, otherwise it would be too eye-catching.
Chen Changan looked at Li Qingquan in a plain long skirt, and muttered in his heart, with your appearance, I am afraid that any color of clothes you change is quite eye-catching. Then set off for Wine Alley.
At this time, the Li Mansion had already turned upside down, and Li Yuanwai only went out once, and when he came back, he found that the library where Quan'er was located had been opened, and the people had been taken away, and the whole mansion turned up and down and did not find any trace.
Li Yuanwai clenched his fists tightly and said, "No matter who you are, if you dare to touch my daughter, I will make you uncomfortable even if I fight for my life!"
Mrs. Li was even more crying on the side, which made Li Yuanwai even more irritable, and let Mrs. cry there, and took someone out by herself, even to find all corners of the capital, and to find out her daughter.
Chen Changan and Li Qingquan have already arrived at the wine lane, and as Li Qingquan said, there is not a single pedestrian in sight. Although it is called Wine Alley, it does not waft out a little aroma of wine, Chen Changan is quite strange, but it is still important to find clues, so he doesn't care about these things.
There are high walls on both sides of the wine alley, and the ground is the bluestone slab used in the unification of the capital, which does not seem to be abnormal.
The two of them searched almost inch by inch, but they still found nothing suspicious, and further on, a large wine vat appeared in the middle of the alley, half in the wall, half exposed, and in the middle of this big wine vat there was a strange-shaped tree.
Chen Changan carefully observed the wine vat but didn't find anything, and was about to walk forward, but he caught a glimpse of falling dirt on the ground, and there were footprints on the heel of the wall.
Chen Changan called Li Qingquan to see the size of the footprints, Li Qingquan shook his head, it was obviously not Xiaohuan's footprints. Chen Changan gestured with his feet, which were obviously bigger than his own feet. And in the corner of the wall, normal people here will not step on it, which can only mean that someone has escaped here, and it is very likely that it is the person who captured Xiaohuan.
Chen Changan said: "The footprints appear here, let's take a look forward, it is possible that Xiaohuan was not captured here." ”
Sure enough, no trace was found.
Li Qingquan took a deep breath and said, "Let's go to Tianfu Lane." ”
At the speed of the two of them, they arrived at the intersection of Tianfu Lane in just half an hour, this Tianfu Lane has a high wall on one side, and there are mountains and rocks on the other side, and there are many alleys, Li Qingquan said in a low voice: "This Tianfu Lane is a main alley, but there are seven road intersections, I think this is very likely to be the place where Xiaohuan was arrested." ”
Chen Changan nodded, quickly swept the surrounding environment, and quickly came to a bare mountain rock, which was engraved with "Tian Fu", thinking that this is the origin of the name of this alley, but there is nothing suspicious about the surroundings. 、
At this time, I heard Li Qingquan's voice, "Chen Changan, you come here!"
Chen Changan hurried over, and sure enough, there was a handkerchief that fell on the ground at the third intersection, and Chen Changan naturally recognized it as the one that Xiaohuan took out to wipe his tears when he went to the inn to find Chen Changan.
So Xiaohuan had an accident here, Li Qingquan picked up the handkerchief, looked at it himself, and said: "It's indeed Xiaohuan's handkerchief, it must be here, right?"
Chen Changan nodded, looked around, and sure enough, he found that there was an extremely inconspicuous footprint on the wall of the high wall, the size of which was the same as the footprint at the root of the wall of Jiuxiang, which should have been left by the same person.
Chen Changan said: "I'll go up and take a look." After speaking, he used his sleeves to blow the breeze, and with the help of the power of lifting, he jumped on the high wall, not noticing, just when he urged the breeze on his sleeves, Li Qingquan suddenly sensed it, and looked down at the bracelet that Chen Changan mortgaged to her.
The scenery on the high wall is completely different from what Chen Changan thought, it is not the courtyard wall of a large family, but at a glance, you can actually look at half of the capital, which shows that the geographical location here is quite high. But then, he wasn't sure where the killer had gone.
Falling back to Tianfu Lane, looking at Li Qingquan and shaking his head, Li Qingquan was not very disappointed, probably knew this result in his heart, but held the handkerchief tightly and said: "It's not early, let's go back first." ”
Back at the private house, the two sat opposite each other without saying a word, Li Qingquan was stunned when he looked at the handkerchief, but Chen Changan always felt that he had ignored some key clues.
"By the way, Miss Qingquan," Chen Changan seemed to think of something, "Do you know the art of tracking?"
Li Qingquan shook his head and said: "The technique of tracking requires talent, and it is difficult for ordinary talents to track down the owner with a handkerchief alone, and they need to put some kind of object containing their own talent on someone in advance before they can be tracked." ”
Chen Chang'an was terrified in his heart, and took out a night pearl from his arms, Li Qingquan took it and urged the talent to sense it before saying: "This does contain some kind of talent, but because you haven't replenished your spiritual power for too long, it has long been invalid, where did you get it?"
"Wanbao Pavilion, I bought a robe, and the man gave it away. I doubt ......"
Li Qingquan took over, "Do you suspect that you were being followed?
Chen Changan nodded and did not speak.
Li Qingquan added: "Wanbao Pavilion is the property of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and the person who assassinated you earlier is indeed somewhat involved in the Prime Minister's Mansion, unless someone else frames the Prime Minister's Mansion." ”
Chen Changan said: "Probably not, I haven't offended anyone, others have no reason to harm me, and I'm no longer here, I still feel that these two things have something to do with time." And I must know the connection, but I don't think about it for a while. ”
Li Qingquan couldn't force Chen Changan to think hard, maybe doing something else could help him remember, so he picked up the night pearl and played.
The sky outside gradually darkened, Chen Changan was about to say that he went out to see if he could find anything, but heard a miserable cry for help outside, Chen Changan quickly stood up and looked at Li Qingquan, nodded his head, opened the door and glanced out.
Sure enough, after the disappearance appeared, no one dared to come out of the street at night, only the miserable girl, who looked back while running, and still shouted for help in her mouth.
Seeing Chen Changan's hesitation, Li Qingquan said, "Go ahead, save her in." ”
