Chapter 5: The Rosary Goes Missing

Thinking of this possibility, Lu Qinghuan hurriedly took a closer look around, there were wild grasses everywhere, it had rained for a long time a few days ago, and the ground was very muddy, if someone slipped down from the edge of the cliff, it was easy to leave traces on the slope. Although the handkerchief of the rosary was hung on the slope, there were no slip marks on the slope, but it was precisely the path on the cliff side that left a few messy shoe prints.

According to the pattern, Lu Qinghuan knew that one of them was a rosary, but the other one was very unfamiliar. There were only a few shoe prints, and then they disappeared into the meadow, and although there were some traces of it at first, they were quickly annihilated by the dead grass, and the meadow was connected by dense forests and paths up the mountain, and it was not known where the man ended up.

Knowing that the rosary did not fall off the cliff, Lu Qinghuan was a little relieved, but soon began to worry a little - the footprints on the ground were telling her that the rosary was most likely taken away!

It would be nice to have a police dog at this time!

Looking at the traces that disappeared on the grass with some annoyance, Lu Qinghuan was faintly anxious.

If the rosary is taken captively, what is the purpose of the captor? If it was just an ordinary human trafficker, would she be sold? If not human traffickers, then who?

She had to hurry up and ask the miracle doctor if she saw the rosary!

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became, Lu Qinghuan kept walking towards the mountainside, and fell several times along the way.

When she arrived outside the thatched house where Helan Xuanyi lived, she was covered in mud, and her palms were also cut by grass stalks.

Helan Xuanyi usually lives here alone, the grass house is not big, and there is a fence around the outside with bamboo chips, and some medicinal materials are planted.

Lu Qinghuan looked left and right, not daring to venture in, so he stood outside the fence and shouted loudly into the grass hut: "Divine doctor? Miracle Doctor? Are you absent?

Helan Xuanyi heard the sound, came out of the room, and saw such a scene: the bandeau dress that should have been crimson was stained by the mud and could not distinguish the original color, the double ring bun was scattered, the red little face was slightly tilted, and the sweaty skin was reflected by the sun, reflecting a crystal like jade.

"Divine doctor, I want to ask, has a girl named Rosary ever come to you?"

Lu Qinghuan walked all the way, because the road was muddy, and her shoes were not slippery, so she fell several times, and when she saw Helan Xuanyi coming out, her breath was not even even, so she asked.

Helan Xuanyi shook his head: "No." ”

After listening to Helan Xuanyi's words, Lu Qinghuan knew that his guess was indeed right, bit his lip, and asked, "Then has someone ever carried a heavy object through here?" ”

"Neither has been."

Although she was mentally prepared for this result, Lu Qinghuan was still a little annoyed, Gui Bao had already been beaten because of her, if the rosary had an accident because of her, how could she be at ease?

Looking at Helan Xuanyi, who was expressionless, Lu Qinghuan bit his lip and pleaded with him: "Divine doctor, my maid seems to have been taken away, you can help me again!" ”

Seeing that Helan Xuanyi didn't answer, Lu Qinghuan thought that he was still angry about what happened before, so he pleaded pitifully: "The divine doctor is such a jade tree and a chic and unrestrained person, he will definitely not deal with a ** person like Er, right?" Human life is at stake, God doctor, you can help me! ”

It's the first time Helan Xuanyi has heard someone praise others like this, even if it's a slap on the back, she's a little serious?

The words of refusal were blocked back by her expectant eyes, Helan Xuanyi frowned, and finally nodded.

Seeing that he agreed, Lu Qinghuan hurriedly told the whole story, and begged him to go to the city to report to the official for him.

Helan Xuanyi looked at the woman who was a few steps away from her, her lips opened and closed quickly, like two delicate petals flying, and her eyes were even more transparent like Loulan's glass crystal beads, reflecting the bright sunlight and dazzling him.

It's like the woman with flamboyant eyebrows in my memory.

"Miracle doctor? Miracle Doctor? Are you listening? Lu Qinghuan saw that Helan Xuanyi's eyes were a little drifting, stretched out his hand and waved, and asked urgently, "Is it that I have too many requests?" ”

Helan Xuanyi came back to her senses at this time, her attention stayed on her hand for a moment, and then she shook her head and said in a nonchalant and cold tone: "Wait a minute." ”

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the house.

After a while, Helan Xuanyi came out of the room, holding a roll of gauze and a bottle of ointment in his hand, and walked to Lu Qinghuan's side, "After you go back, bandage your hand, what the lady asks me to do, I will try my best to complete it in the future." ”

After speaking, without waiting for Lu Qinghuan to react, he stuffed the things in his hand into her, and then crossed her and walked towards the road down the mountain.

Lu Qinghuan glanced at the scratches on the palms of her hands that were not strict, as well as the medicine bottle that Helan Xuanyi gave her, but she didn't expect this seemingly arrogant miracle doctor to be so careful.

Knowing that it was useless to be in a hurry now, Lu Qinghuan sighed, dragged his tired body back to the small courtyard, changed into clean clothes, and took medicine for himself, and then went to Gui Niang's room, knowing that the rosary had indeed never returned, and he didn't dare to tell Gui Niang about the disappearance of the rosary, so he only lied to her that the rosary was sent to the city to buy medicine by herself.

Gui Niang looked at Lu Qinghuan with a sad expression, thinking that she was tired, and saw that she had gauze wrapped in her hands, and said in surprise: "Lady? You're hurt? Show the servant! ”

"It's just a little bit of skin, don't worry!" Lu Qinghuan waved her hand, told her to take care of Gui Bao, and stuffed the excess ointment to Gui Niang, and then returned to her room.

Because he had walked such a long way in the morning, his body that had just recovered seemed a little unbearable, and he was extremely tired and sleepy, so Lu Qinghuan ate two nests and cushioned his stomach, and fell asleep.

slept for an hour and a half, and it wasn't until Gui Niang came and knocked on the door that she woke up in a daze.

Gui Niang sued her, Helan Xuanyi came over.

As soon as Lu Qinghuan heard that Helan Xuanyi was coming, he hurriedly got out of the quilt, tidied up his appearance a little, and then walked out of the door. Seeing that he was standing under the eaves, he greeted him, opened Gui Niang, lowered his voice and asked eagerly, "Is there a report to the official?" What does the government say? ”

Although he was very anxious about the rosary, Lu Qinghuan still noticed that Helan Xuanyi's forehead was full of sweat, and his originally fair skin was also flushed crimson because of the hurry. With sharp eyes, she also found that the black clothes on Helan Xuanyi's body were soaked with sweat.

In such a cold season, he can still sweat a few layers of clothes, presumably he has been on the road for several hours without resting, which makes Lu Qinghuan a little unhappy.

"I went to the government office, but the county commander was unwilling to send someone to look for it. However, I found someone I knew and would help keep an eye on the whereabouts of the rosary girl. ”
