How sinister can people's hearts be, Gu Xiaoxiao returned to the rented house and held the small pearl earrings in the palm of her hand.
Xianyang City is so big, where did Song Qiusheng take Xiao Wan, the pearl made her palms hurt a little, Gu Xiaoxiao was thinking about Xiao Wan's whereabouts, and meditated on countermeasures.
She has many methods, but after a lot of hustle and bustle, she feels that every method is unsatisfactory.
There is no GPRS location and no mobile phone to contact at any time. The police department has limited police resources, and incidents similar to the abduction and trafficking of women and children are endless, and even simple and crude street robberies may not be able to solve the case.
The dismantling of the white party is very well disguised, on the surface, Xiaowan is just moving with her fiancΓ© to change places, and the two are still eloping, so it is normal to conceal the news.
The flowers staggered over, with a pair of clear eyes, full of worry, tugging on Gu Xiaoxiao's shirt with her little hand, and asked timidly: "Mother, where did Aunt Xiaowan go?" Why did Lili and Xiaobai say that Aunt Hua'er was sold. β
When it comes to selling words, Hua'er's eyes show deep fear, when she was in Yuqing Town before, whenever Hua'er was sick or Yang's mother was in a bad mood, she would shout to sell Hua'er.
Although the flowers are more cheerful now, they still feel frightened when they hear that the aunt they like has been sold.
Gu Xiaoxiao noticed Hua'er's nervousness, squatted down, took her in her arms and comforted: "Don't be afraid Hua'er, Aunt Xiaowan has not been sold." She has moved away, and we will see Aunt Xiaowan in the future. β
Hua'er nodded as if she didn't understand, wiping away the tears from the corners of her eyes. leaned his small body into Gu Xiaoxiao's arms.
She is still young, Gu Xiaoxiao is afraid of scaring the flowers, so she can only hide from her, so as not to make the flowers frightened.
Yang Dawang stood next to him, the worry in his eyes was very obvious, and because of Hua'er's presence, he could only stop talking and wait for Hua'er to sit on the chair. When he was eating cookies with tears in his eyes, he quietly asked Gu Xiaoxiao.
"Sister Gu, what's wrong with Sister Xiaowan. Song Qiusheng is that bastard, he won't really sell Sister Xiaowan. Let's help Sister Xiaowan, she's such a good person. β
He clenched his hands into fists and gritted his teeth to fight for Xiao Wan.
Gu Xiaoxiao didn't think much about it. Yang Dawang has a full sense of justice. I get along well with Xiaowan, and it's normal to behave like this. She pressed the corner of her eye, hummed, and made up her mind: "You go and buy some baiji, cinnabar, brushes and yellow table paper, and then buy some incense candles for sacrifices, gold and silver clothes and paper." β
After finishing speaking, Gu Xiaoxiao frowned and added: "Buy another peachwood sword and come back in exchange for nine copper coins." β
Since you want to try Taoism. Just put things in order, even if it seems strange to outsiders that she is so suddenly here. But during the Republic of China. The common people live in hardship and unrest, and their beliefs in Buddhism, Taoism and Christianity from the West are very devout, and Dawang will not want to go anywhere else.
Gu Xiaoxiao has become more and more abundant in physical strength and aura these days, in addition to being deaf and visual, and his body is stronger, it is still difficult to cultivate the truth. However, the Tao is three thousand, and it is very mysterious, although she does not have great magical powers, it should not be a big problem to draw some simple talismans.
The situation is chaotic, after Gu Xiaoxiao recuperates, Xi Niang seems to have been reborn, her dark skin has become fair, her whole person has plumped a lot, and she has grown a little taller.
The biggest change is the facial features and face shape, the previous fine mother was malnourished, a face was concave like an awl, only the cheekbones were prominent and black and deflated.
Now Gu Xiaoxiao has a goose-egg-like face, two faint willow eyebrows, and small and delicate facial features, which have become much more beautiful. When she entered the mansion, she already had the rudiments of a beauty, and although her later transformation aroused everyone's envy, it was also within a reasonable range.
Yang Dawang looked dazed, opened his mouth, scratched his head and asked, "Why are you buying these, who are we going to sacrifice?" β
"Go ahead, buy some more melons and fruits, snacks and red beans, and I'll explain to you later."
Yang Dawang didn't ask any more about what the little sister-in-law decided, and recited what she said in his mouth repeatedly, for fear that he would forget what he bought.
He was very worried about Xiao Wan's whereabouts, she was so gentle and kind, and she knew so many things, she trusted Song Qiusheng so much, how sad she would be if she was sold. Yang Dawang is the age of youth, he finally met his peers, and he is a female student who has read books and has a gentle temperament, Xiaowan is a little different in his heart.
After hurriedly buying the things Gu Xiaoxiao wanted, in the late autumn weather, Yang Dawang was forced to sweat, he put the things down, and gasped for breath in his mouth.
Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the cinnabar and other things, saw that there was nothing wrong, breathed a sigh of relief, looked up and saw Yang Dawang slumped on the chair panting, shook his head and couldn't help but speak: "You don't have to be so anxious to do things in the future, it's easy to make mistakes in chaos when you're busy." β
Yang Dawang pressed his chest tiredly, and said intermittently: "No, no, it's just running faster, that's right, hehe." β
The former rustic country boy seemed to be a different person in just a few months, Yang Dawang exposed half of his muscular forearms, wearing a dark blue robe and jacket, except for his dark face, the whole person had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he was full of aura and was not at all like the stupid boy who was muddy before.
"Take the flowers to the next door to play, I'm going to be busy with some business, don't come in when you don't shout."
The practice of setting up an altar needs to be pure and focused, with flowers and Yang Dawang here, one big and one small two sparrows, they will definitely break the casserole and ask to the end, affecting her practice.
Yang Dawang didn't push, and after waiting to breathe, he entered the house, took Hua'er's hand, took the Rubik's cube and tangram and went to the next door. The relationship between the two siblings has grown by leaps and bounds in the past few months, Yang Dawang was not very impressed with this sister before, but now if anyone bullies Hua'er, in his heart, it is second only to bullying his little aunt, and he can't bear it than bullying him.
Gu Xiaoxiao is happy to see this, how long she can stay in this world is still unknown, Hua'er is still young, if no one supports each other, she is always at ease.
After driving the two of them next door. Gu Xiaoxiao opened the window, pulled the incense case under the bed, and inserted the incense candle. A few melons and fruits were placed as offerings.
After getting all this done, Gu Xiaoxiao calmed down, took out a handful of red beans, prepared a pair of bamboo chopsticks, put the small pearl earrings beside her, silently thought about the appearance of the earrings in her heart, and said the birthday of the girl and the address of the mansion.
After doing these. Gu Xiaoxiao picked up a handful of red beans casually, put them on the table, and then used chopsticks to pluck the red beans. No more, no less, nine capsules at a time.
At the end, there was still a red bean left, so Gu Xiaoxiao accepted the chopsticks, closed her eyes and pressed the Nine Palaces Flying Star Map. Calculate the direction of the lost item. and the month in which it can be recovered.
It sounds like this method is a bit mysterious, but it can be spread for thousands of years in various Taoist techniques, and it is not all groundless, and it is always useful.
It is easy to count as one, the hexagram is presented as a kan, and the lost items are mostly in the north, and they can be found back in November.
The lunar calendar is used in the bean occupation method, and Gu Xiaoxiao put the beans away. Take out the white qi and grind the cinnabar, and cut out the rune paper. drew three search talismans with a red pen, and wrote Luo Wan's name and birth month on the back, it stands to reason that she should write the eight characters of the birthday to be safer, but she has no choice but to give up.
The tracing talisman made by Gu Xiaoxiao has been improved, and it is slightly different from the rune paper commonly used in Taoism. Ordinary search charms, at the crossroads or land temples, shout the name of the person being searched at noon, and burn it for seven days in a row to get clues.
Her rune paper is more subtle, as long as it is within a kilometer of Luo Wan, the rune paper will spontaneously combust, and the ashes point to the direction where Luo Wan is. If Luo Wan is not in life, she will spontaneously combust when she becomes a rune, and now the rune paper is good, which proves that Xiao Wan has not encountered danger.
The previous hexagram indicated that another pearl drop earring could only be found in November, but now it is late October, and if it goes well, it will not be difficult to find another pearl drop earring.
But whether Xiaowan's disappearance is really related to the banquet on the first day, Gu Xiaoxiao is not completely sure.
"North, North."
Gu Xiaoxiao took out the map that Xianyang bought shortly after, this is a map drawn by foreigners in Xianyang, densely packed like a spider web, and there are all the signs that should be there. She used the mansion as the starting point and drew a circle in the northern part of the map.
Judging from the map, the northern building network is not as dense as the east and west, before the Republic of China, Xianyang was "rich in the east and rich in the west, poor in the north and cheap in the south", and the north was dominated by poor people, but that was a long time ago.
After the Republic of China, with the construction of roads and the influx of displaced people into the old city, the magnates began to build houses in the suburbs.
After the house is built, most of them are used for recreation, smoking du Bo playing mahjong, and the indispensable thing is that the red sleeves add fragrance and then come to a gold house to hide Jiaojiao, so that piece is called the golden finch again.
There are many high-ranking officials and nobles, and in those little red mansions, some people have chartered houses, bought a few clever girls, and started high-level prostitutes, cultivating little girls into courtesans with complete colors and arts.
Gu Xiaoxiao's fingers circled around the distribution area of the small western-style building, if Song Qiusheng was a demolition of the White Party, after coaxing Xiaowan's money, he would take her to exchange for money. Either sold to the powerful as aunts, or sold to high-class brothels.
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoxiao only felt that Song Qiusheng's face was hateful, and he should have been cut by a thousand cuts.
But in the area of Xiaohonglou, there are many bodyguards and wolf dogs, but all powerful people always spare their lives, Gu Xiaoxiao was worried about Xiaowan, and she couldn't rush in, so she decided to ask Sister Yan for leave tomorrow, and go to the north first, if the search charm has a reaction, she will make other plans.
I hope Xiaowan can come back safely, Gu Xiaoxiao waited for the incense to burn, and then accepted the sacrifice and the search charm, looking a little sad.
Her strength is too small in front of the whole era, even if the flower is small, she can see that she is a beauty embryo, and even her appearance is nourished by the aura, gradually revealing her beauty.
If there is no means of self-protection, will they really be able to cope with the bad guys in the future?
Gu Xiaoxiao always thought that as long as he beware of the Yang family, find a way to expose Yang Tianlai's hypocrisy, make him pay for his crimes, and raise Hua'er as an adult, this task can be successfully ended.
But looking at it now, it is far from that simple, this era is not friendly to a single woman who is weak and weak. Gu Xiaoxiao counted the silver dollars she had saved during this time, and advanced her salary to Sister Yan, so that another missionary in the Holy Light Catholic Church bought a small Browning pistol and fifty rounds of ammunition.
In ancient or modern society, the sword in his hand is enough for Gu Xiaoxiao to protect his own safety. But this is the Republic of China, where guns and ammunition are flying all over the sky, and there is no pistol to defend herself, and when she encounters a bad person, if the other party has a gun in her hand, her situation will be very bad.
Gu Xiaoxiao is no stranger to guns, although she is most familiar with laser guns in the interstellar era, but in modern society, she has also been a firearms enthusiast when she is bored, and she has specially bought all kinds of guns to get addicted.
It is undeniable that Gu Xiaoxiao also wanted to have more self-defense skills when carrying out tasks in the future. Playing with antique guns is purely a hobby, Gu Xiaoxiao specially bought a holster and carried the small Browning with him.
She tried to shoot two shots, except for the first shot, which was a little easier due to her hands, and the second shot accurately hit the birds flying in the sky, adding a dish to Yang Dawang and Hua'er.
After that gun, it has been two days since Xiao Wan disappeared, Song Qiusheng has been without a road, Gu Xiaoxiao inquired in many ways, and did not know his whereabouts.
In the front yard, some people guessed that after Song Qiusheng took a sum of money, he was likely to go to the private Du Bo.
There are countless underground fields in Xianyang, Gu Xiaoxiao has no way to find him, and after weighing it, she asked Sister Yan for leave, and took the search charm and Browning pistol to the vicinity of Christine to find Xiaowan's whereabouts.
It's already autumn, and the color of the creeper is red and yellow, red like a brilliant cloud, and the small western-style building with a white roof and red wall is entwined in it.
In the autumn wind, creepers are not as dense as in summer, and they leak out of the windowsill sparsely.
In the open frosted glass window, only the sound of a pop was heard, and the exquisite porcelain bowl with the bitter medicinal juice shattered on the ground together.
The middle-aged woman who was holding the bowl hurriedly squatted down and cleaned up the mess. She was not yet forty years old, and her eyes and neck were full of wrinkles because she was too tired, and her lower abdomen was visibly protruding when she squatted down, in stark contrast to the young girl lying on the bed.
While picking up the porcelain, she nagged: "Miss, Master Hong is a good person. Although he is older, women must always have such a place, and the fifth aunt is about the same age as you, and she always had a straight face before. Later, I also understood, and took out all kinds of means to envelop the master. β
The medicinal juice reflected the chattering face of Sister-in-law Wang, she used to serve the young ladies and young masters on an errand in the Hong family, and then the young ladies and young masters went to study in the academy to stay abroad, and the lord sent her over to serve the new aunt.
Sister-in-law Wang trusts the master, and she is a little proud in her heart, the fourth aunt and the fifth aunt are all taken care of by her, at first one is more stubborn than the other, and then she doesn't admit her fate.
