The brother and sister returned to the town from the county, and it was only a day, because everything happened quietly, and naturally no one knew that Ayi had returned from the ghost gate.

During the day, she went to private school with her brother as usual, and rested as usual at night. But Lu Tiance couldn't help it, he couldn't sleep, and came out of the house alone.

In the middle of the moon, the whole house was peaceful. He stood in the courtyard for a while, feeling uncomfortable, so he quietly opened the back door and went out, wanting to walk around at will.

Lu Tiance didn't actually have any direction in his heart, he just looked for his memory and kept walking towards the main street of the town. Along the way, the streets were closed, and the barking of dogs was incessant, although there was no half a figure, it was very lively.

He had been thinking about how Ah Yi had been poisoned before, and he didn't notice that he was going farther and farther, and finally left the town.

At the beginning of Haoyue, the warm autumn night in the south was not too cold.

He didn't feel cold in ordinary clothes, but the wind blew from nowhere, which made Lu Tiance's mood jump from time to time.

There was a river outside the town, which surrounded almost half of the town, and there were always people washing clothes and fishing, but it was very quiet because it was night.

Lu Tiance didn't actually want to go so far, but his brain was too chaotic at that time, and he was just doing some unconscious behaviors.

The river flowed quietly into the distance, and he stood on the bank of the river, listening to the croaking of frogs from the shadows, and slowly gave birth to some peace in his heart. I haven't experienced such a feeling of silence for a long time.

Although his father was a high-ranking advisor to the palace, he was always in trouble. The emperor of this dynasty is not a good person, the people are deeply resentful, and the palace is naturally not peaceful.

Although my father wanted to realize his political ideals, he knew that it was a very dangerous road, so he always deliberately made them show up as little as possible.

Indeed, his forbearance protected his children, but killed his family.

Lu Tiance took the leader and hit a float on the water, followed by the second, the third, and I don't know how many.

"The heart is disturbed, the mind is moved. Tsk, it seems, you're not as quiet as you think."

Under the moonlight, the entire riverside was unobstructed, and Lu Tiance couldn't see anyone, but he clearly knew that the voice was not his auditory hallucination.

"Who are you and why are you following me. He calmly looked at the river, not frightened by this mysterious voice.

The man didn't show up either, "Guess who I would be." ”

The voice in the shadows was a little arrogant, and it was hard to tell the enemy. Lu Tiance stood still and didn't continue to play, the young man's thin body seemed to leave because of the wind, "I don't know, and I'm not curious." ”

Tut!

The man touched a soft nail, and was naturally very unhappy, "They all say that you have a good temperament, I think those people must not have seen your true face." Boy, the Buddha nature in you is clearly fake. You're too good at pretending. ”

"What's your business. Lu Tiance snorted coldly, "Can't you hide and see people, then what do you follow me." You think you're something good. ”

The man in the darkness was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect to be scolded, and then suddenly became angry, daring to say that he was something. So the man shook his palm, Lu Tiance's body suddenly softened, and then he half-knelt on the ground.

Naturally, he couldn't let that person get his way, so he simply fell backwards, and the whole person slept directly on the bank of the river, looking at the sky with two eyes.

It's still that expressionless face, but it hides the bloody killing.

The man watched all his every move in his eyes, and secretly said that he was really a stubborn boy.

He finally stopped hiding himself and came out of the shadows, "Boy, I didn't expect you to be stubborn. Why, kneeling down to the future master, it makes you uncomfortable like this. ”

Lu Tiance snorted coldly, "Master, is it okay for you to be a disciple of whoever you want, I can be regarded as having a long experience." When did I say I wanted to worship you as a teacher? ”

"Do you know who I am, I'm afraid that everyone in this world wants to be my apprentice except for you. "That person looks weird, and his whole body is in tatters, but you can see that he is a martial arts master when you see him coming and going silently.

Lu Tiance knew that this was not a good person, so he just snorted coldly, "That'...... With me Hogan. ”

There was no sarcasm between his eyebrows, and his tone didn't seem like he was scolding. But that person still jumped to his feet angrily, "Bastard boy, Lao Tzu has taken a fancy to you, and you dare to refuse, I don't know what to do." ”

The nights in the south are gentle and pleasant. But on such a gentle night, Lu Tiance, who fell to the ground, was entangled by a martial arts master who had to accept him for his own reason.

At first, he wanted to lure out this person, but he thought that the other party was Xiao Xiao who he had offended at some point. But seeing that this person came and went silently, with first-class martial arts but a short temper, he gave up his plan.

Lu Tiance didn't want to have anything to do with this person, but this person was not a question of whether he wanted to or not, "Boy, you will definitely regret it." ”

But it was the people who provoked him, and none of the people in the world had a good end.

This person is considered a closed disciple that he must accept, otherwise it would be clean to kill him directly, but his attitude is really bad, and he can't say it if he doesn't teach him a lesson.

The mysterious man felt that he should still give the future closed disciple a chance, so he patiently asked, "Why don't you want to be my apprentice, and I won't take your money, and I will also hand over all the housekeeping skills to you." ”

"You're not a good person!" Lu Tiance didn't want to deal with this mentally retarded person, but since the other party asked, he said directly, "Ayi's poison is caused by you." You poisoned my sister, I should have killed you. But I can't kill you, and you don't really want me to die, so I naturally want to stay away from you. ”

Since he is sincere in accepting apprentices, he has naturally investigated his ancestors for eighteen generations, this kid is not only first-class in appearance, he is a good seedling, but also a brain. Tsk, if you accept such an apprentice, you will blow it on the rivers and lakes in the future.

But at the moment, although the mysterious person's willingness to accept apprentices is strong, Lu Tiance does not accept it at all, "If I hurt my sister, I can't kill you, it's useless." But I can't forgive you. ”

Well, there is Buddha-like compassion in the legend, but it is really fake, and even the smiling face mask is just to deceive those stupid beings. This kid has a bit of meaning.

The mysterious man was no longer frantic because of Lu Tiance's attitude, but he still couldn't help but suppress his breath, "Boy, if I have to take you as an apprentice, what should you do." If you don't agree, I'll make sure that little sister becomes a green-glowing caterpillar. ”

Threaten him and see if you still don't agree.

Lu Tiance's voice was as cold as water, "If you hurt Ah Yi again, I can't protect her, so I will naturally agree, but in this way, even if I worship you as a teacher, I will definitely not let you go." If you don't teach me with all your heart, you don't have to toss so much, but if you teach me with all your heart, the day I finish my studies will be your death. ”

There are many people in the world, they are not too powerful, and they also know how to compromise. But once this kind of person fights back, it will inevitably be the most ferocious wolf-like posture.

Lu Tiance is probably such a kind of person.

He has the devotion of a Buddha and the skin of a god, but he has a half-human and half-demon heart.

The man was surprised by Lu Tiance's forbearance, and was also frightened by his words, what the kid said was true. Those eyes will tell you that everything he says will become true in the near future.

So in the end, although he had such a plan, he didn't make another move on Ah Yi in the end.

The mysterious man in the dark night was as if he had never appeared.

In the next few days, Ah Yi and Lin Xiu's lives were very normal, and even Fu Hongsheng never pestered them again. The brother and sister have their own thoughts, but they are the same as always.

It wasn't until more than ten days after that moonlit night that some rumors slowly spread throughout the town.

It turns out that strange things have often happened in this town this month, that is, the girls in the town are always disappearing.

Among them, Fu Hongsheng was included. When she went back to the countryside, she said that she would come back after a few days, and Boss Fu and his wife didn't care. For several days they thought the boy was too happy to be playing in the country, until yesterday they learned that the boy had already returned, but they had not seen anyone.

They sent all the drunken people to look for them, but there was no news within a few miles of the town. What a big living person, I don't know where I went. Boss Fu and his wife were in a hurry, and went to report to the official, only to learn that many people's children were gone, and they were all reporting to the official there.

These people are all from the town, there are farmers, there are also businessmen who run big restaurants like Boss Fu, and there are some people who are famous, and the number one or twenty people are together, and they are chaotic.

The mayor of the town is a kind man, not to mention that this town was very peaceful all these years ago, and the big case is just a few pigs lost and a few sheep are missing. This loss of girls has never happened, especially not one or two.

The mayor's face was very ugly, he knew that there were several families here that he could not afford to provoke, and he could only look for someone with a sad face, so he quickly split up and found someone, and asked people to send a message, saying that they wanted everyone in the town to pay attention to whether there were any strange things recently.

Those who know the whereabouts of those girls will be rewarded for providing government information.

In just a few days, the whole town lost a dozen girls, which is not a small matter. Although the mayor of the town is a kind person, he also knows that this matter is naturally sloppy, and he notifies the county on the one hand, and also sends additional people. Even if you don't want to cause trouble, it's necessary to make a appearance, so at least the top will only say that he is not capable.

The brother and sister in the house also know about the mayor. Lu Tiance asked Fuquan to inquire and found that the missing people were all teenage girls. And not only in their town, but also in many towns in the whole county, there are girls missing, and it has been this month.

Since the other party took away all young girls, then at least there will be nothing wrong with Ayi.

Lu Tiance took care of the private school, but found that many people in the private school were in a low mood. Even the naughtiest children on weekdays don't talk much, and the old master of the private school is also interested in the lack of appearance, is it all because of the recent disappearance of girls in the town?!

As a result, Lu Tiance found out that it was really because of this incident, some of which were because of his sisters and sisters, and some because of the theft of his friends.

didn't have the heart to continue going to school, and finally got to the private school, Lu Tiance pulled Ah Yi to go home, but Ah Yi met a few friends he usually played. Seeing that they were not happy, she asked a few more questions, and then she learned a lot about the disappearance of her beautiful sister, including Fu Hongsheng, who she was very much looking forward to becoming her future sister-in-law.

Lu Tiance didn't know what he was thinking, but she felt that she should do something. So that evening, when I was playing ball with my friends, a bunch of people discussed together to find the missing girls. They're all just seven or eight years old, where are they going to look?

"I've heard that the sisters only disappeared at night when they were outside, maybe...... Can we go out at night?"

"Yes, we can go where they've been, maybe they're just hiding. ”

"Okay, that's it, let's go to the edge of town in the evening. ”

Children have a pure heart, and they don't have too many likes and dislikes for the world, they just know what they want to do. They don't even know that there are some bad people in this world who won't be kind to them.

Lu Tiance has always been too restrained by Ah Yi, and he will not stop what she wants to do, even if she is interested. Even if it is to make friends, he also supports it. The kind of indulgence that spoils his sister to heaven from the bottom of his heart makes Ayitian not afraid.

That night, a dozen or so children snuck out of their respective homes, and the outcome can be imagined.

The town was full of people sent by the mayor to look for the missing girl, and when he saw so many children, he detained them, and only after this question did he know that they actually wanted to find someone.

Naturally, it was impossible for those people to let these children really run around in the middle of the night, so they had to detain them to the yamen, and then notify their respective families to come over to collect them.

Ahh

Ah Yi's face was not very good-looking, and he waited with a bunch of friends in the yamen for about a pillar of incense, and then saw his brother and Uncle Fuquan coming to lead people.

From Ayi's point of view, it is completely impossible to tell whether he is angry or not.

Ah Yi felt very uneasy, she secretly ran out at night, and her brother couldn't rest well and came to pick her up. Along the way, Uncle Fuquan and his brother didn't speak, and Ah Yi didn't dare to squeak, just lowered his head like a frosted eggplant.

The three of them walked home silently, except for each other's breathing along the way, probably the cicadas and frogs in the distance.

When they returned to the courtyard where they lived, Lu Tiance called Ah Yi to the room where he was sleeping, "Sit." ”

Ah Yi sat down obediently and called his brother glutinously. She always felt that her brother was angry, what should she do. My brother has never been angry with her, even if she has caused a big disaster, he is not angry, what happened today.

"Ah Yi, do you know what you did wrong?" He saw the little girl's rather aggrieved appearance, and for the first time, he didn't relent, "Think about it." ”

His tone was not strict, but the pressure was a little low. Ah Yi is afraid of what if her brother gets angry and ignores her.

"I ...... I shouldn't have run out alone. ”

"Well, count one!

And ??? "I shouldn't have sent them to find those sisters who were missing." ”

"Well, count one!

And ?!"I...... I don't know, brother, you are so annoying, even if I did something wrong!"

Seeing that his sister was already about to cry, Lu Tiance was stunned for a moment, wondering if he was talking too much. He had no experience raising children and didn't know what he was doing right. In the past few years, because he was worried that his father's affairs would leave a shadow on her, he had been cautious, for fear that he would make this innocent and cute little sister crooked.

There are many things that need to be guarded in life, but there are also many things that need to be cherished.

It is true that the family is slaughtered, but she doesn't need to bear it.

Lu Tiance's original intention was not to scare her, "I'm not angry. The elder brother was just worried about what to do if Ah Yi ran out alone and met people who were not those under the mayor's command. ”

His eyes were a little stunned, "Ah Yi, can you tell my brother why you are looking for those missing sisters!"

Ah Yi has a pure and kind temperament, and he has been free-range in recent years, so it is normal for her to have some strange thoughts. But Lu Tiance didn't know how to tell his sister, he must have clearly known his ability before meddling.

It's not wrong to do good, but if you can't protect yourself, how can you protect others?

"Ah Yi knows, we have all discussed, just go to the place outside the town where the sisters have disappeared. If we find something wrong, we run. “

"Silly boy, how old are you. Those missing sisters are already adults, haven't they run away from those bad guys!"

Well, that's right. Ah Yi wrinkled his eyebrows very confusedly, "But what should I do then." Sister Hongsheng is gone, and Ah Yi is sad. If Bad tries to hurt her, will she be in danger?"

"So, you want to find someone because of her?" Ayi, are you really so worried about her?" Lu Tiance actually didn't have any good feelings for that Fu Hongsheng, and even vaguely, he had an inexplicable rejection.

But since Xiaomei said so, he felt that he should still do something. Sure enough, the road of a father and a brother with a child is not easy to walk.

The brother and sister walked all the way, talking in a low voice, but they didn't notice that there was a darkness following them all the time, and the mockery between the man's eyebrows after hearing the young man's words.

The group of children's plan to find them failed, but because the mayor had sent their parents to the yamen to collect them, and it was late at night, the whole town knew about it the next day.

There is no trace of another girl.

Even when the whole town was in a state of panic, someone would go missing, and everyone was furious.

The mayor of the town couldn't go down to the mud, because the families who didn't see their daughters were all focused on the outside of the yamen, and this time, including those who still had daughters at home, they also joined the protest army. Unless the hand of sin is examined, they will not be punished.

Fortunately, this matter was probably very troublesome, and the county magistrate sent officials to various towns to check the situation and appeased them by the way. So the current situation has become like this: the mayor of the town sent many people out to look for the missing girls, and the rich people in the town also sent people, and at the same time as the people with official positions in the court sent people, they began to find the back door to let capable people come here to investigate, and the county sent people to pacify them. But as if they had never existed in this world, none of them were heard from.

In fact, Lu Tiance didn't want to participate in this matter, he had a hunch that this matter was so big, so many girls naturally couldn't disappear by solidity, so there must be a bigger conspiracy behind it.

Nowadays, there is a lot of smoke in the court, and there are many people in the officialdom who are with the mud, and these people have always switched freely between pursuing the truth and the mud. He and his sister were originally fugitives, and they have been safe in the past few years because their father's arrangement made them disappear from the world of the eighth prince ahead of schedule. But if his identity is exposed, what awaits him and his sister will inevitably be to chase and kill.

That man was so suspicious, belligerent and murderous, how could he allow an accident in his calculations.

It's just that......

Ah Yi wants to find Fu Hongsheng back, maybe she is nosy, but as an elder brother, he just wants to spoil her and do whatever she wants. Moreover, Lu Tiance also wanted to know which black hand was operating behind this matter.

And the mysterious man before, does he ...... It has something to do with it.

In the yamen, several people looked at the young man in front of them in shock. He was dressed in plain white clothes, his long hair was tied with the simplest ribbons, he was quite tall, but very thin.

The boy's skin was no longer as pale as snow because he had been in the south for a few years, but it was still a little whiter than the people of the south. He is not the kind of male pet raised by ordinary officials in Kyoto, even if his facial features give birth to a girl. The first feeling he gives people is that he is a Buddha-like life.

This young man is like a Buddha who made a special trip to the mortal world to transform the world.

The mayor of the town knew him, but a few officials from the county didn't know, "What's your name?" ”

"Lu Tiance. He stood there silently, with a smile on his face that relieved the nerves of several officials who had been tense for days.

They were all surprised by the teenager's words, but they still maintained their due calm, "How old are you this year, what does your family do?

Lu Tiance frowned, fearful, but stoic, with a face that a fifteen-year-old boy should have the bravery he should have. "I want to do something for the town's fathers. I think it's a good fit for me, so I want to give it a try. “

The mayor saw the child standing there with a somewhat aggrieved and frightened look, and hurriedly went to explain to a few officials, "This child is not a local, but he has been in our town for several years. There is no one else in his family, only a sister who is only a few years old. ”

"Oh!" good-looking people always have preferential treatment, let alone such a beautiful and excellent teenager. It's just that these officials are still strange, "But it's very dangerous to do this, aren't you afraid?!"

You know, so far, they don't even know whether the missing girls are dead or alive, and it would be better if the other party's goal was not to take people's lives. If those girls have already been killed, then Lu Tiance's proposal must be looking for death.
