After dark in Wood Lane in Guicheng, the households had already gone to the door.

Wood Lane is a relatively remote alley in Turtle City, and there are not many people coming and going, but the news here is not closed, and what happens in the city can often spread quickly in Wood Lane.

The chair in the county guard's mansion has changed, and the people in Wood Lane naturally already know about it.

Although Wood Lane has not been harassed in any way, and only a few black cavalry have patrolled one day in the past half a month, more than a dozen households in Wood Lane still close their doors as soon as it gets dark.

After all, the murder that happened nearly a year ago still has an impact on Wood Alley.

Of course, the people in Wood Lane knew Qin Xiao, and they didn't even have any dislike for this young man who lived alone, but the murder that happened in Qin Xiao's house still made the people of Wood Lane still have lingering palpitations when they think about it.

The whole alley was dead silent.

Qin Xiao quietly walked back and forth twice in the small courtyard he used to have, and only then did he turn into the courtyard after making sure that the courtyard was empty.

The old black dog under the big tree in the yard was gone.

That time the wolf cavalry even came to this alley, which became a rare lively time in Wooden Alley for many years.

However, picking up the final result of the homicide case, it is no longer over, why did those people die in the courtyard, and who is the female ghost in the house, the people in Wood Lane can no longer find the answer, but after that time, there is no news of Qin Xiao who is familiar to people, and on this street, there is no Qin Xiao walking by sooner or later.

When Qin Xiao returned to Wood Alley, it was already late at night.

Qin Xiao didn't stay in the house for long.

He went out the door, climbed over the wall and into the street, and set his eyes on the oil shop diagonally opposite.

Of course, the revisit is not only to see your own hut, but the most important thing is to come back and see the autumn leaves.

At the beginning, the situation was urgent, and I left in a hurry, but I really couldn't care about the old black dog, and looking back, people and dogs were hard to see.

Qin Xiao didn't know where it went, maybe after he left, the cold yard made the old black dog unwilling to stay, went out and wandered lonely in the alley, and even ended up falling in a certain alley.

Not much had changed in the room, except for a few simple pieces of furniture that had been covered in a thick layer of dust, indicating that no one had been here for too long.

Qin Xiao walked around to the back door of the oil shop very familiarly, and looked at the window at the back, the room was as silent as death, Qin Xiao used some strength again, if the red leaves were still here, he would react quickly, but there was no movement in the house.

Qin Xiao was a little disappointed.

It seems that as I guessed, Momiji has already left here.

After leaving Turtle City, Qin Xiao always remembered the red leaves in his heart, but he couldn't be sure that the red leaves were still here.

If Momiji pretended to be the Mapo of the oil shop and was lonely in the dark to protect himself, then when he left Turtle City, Momiji lost the object of protection, so there was no need to continue to stay here.

He only hoped that his judgment was wrong, and that the autumn leaves were still in the oil shop.

Qin Xiao sighed in his heart, the owner here has changed, and Hongye has indeed left.

It's just that he can't be sure that the person in the house is Momiji

Arranged to stay, or after Momiji left, there was a new owner to move in.

As if unwillingly, he patted the back window again, and this time he finally heard a woman's voice from the house: "Someone is ..... behind the house!" There was a hint of horror in his voice.

The voice is a woman, but it is by no means Momiji.

"Who's fucking behind?" A man's rugged voice rang out.

Qin Xiao let go of his hand, did not hesitate, and asked neatly, "Where did the mapo from the oil shop go?" ”

"You..... Who are you? The man was obviously still very afraid of Qin Xiao.

"You answer."

Qin Xiao turned to the back door and patted it again, after a while, he heard a creak, the back door opened, and a strong man held a kitchen knife in his hand, without saying a word, picked it up and cut it here, Qin Xiao's figure flashed, entered the house, and grabbed the man's wrist, although the man's strength was not small, but compared with Qin Xiao, it was like an ant meeting an elephant, and his arm couldn't move.

Qin Xiao's mouth and nose were covered with a cloth towel, only a pair of eyes were exposed, the strong man felt that his hands were like being bound by an iron hoop, his heart was shocked, and before he could open his mouth to beg for mercy, Qin Xiao had already whispered: "Don't be afraid, ask you two questions, and I'll leave immediately." ”

The man also seemed to sense that Qin Xiao had no malicious intent, and nodded.

"Grandson?"

"She said that she also has a grandchild, who is her only relative, and she doesn't know where to go, but she knows that she lives here and may come back to her one day." The man said: "When she left, she told me, if her grandson comes to her one day, let me tell you, don't worry about her, she goes back to her hometown, and when you go home one day, you can see her." ”

"Home?" Qin Xiao was even more surprised, and couldn't help asking, "Where is her hometown?" ”

The man said: "She left a few months ago and sold the shop to me, and I gave her a good price. She seemed to be going back to her hometown, saying that time was running out and she wanted to be buried in her hometown. ”

"Gone?"

"Yes, yes." The man said: "Are you her grandson?" ”

"Did she say anything else?"

"Nope." The man said: "Mapo doesn't like to talk, when this oil shop was sold to me, I still offered a price, I made a price casually, she agreed, and packed up her things and left in two days, when she left, only an old black dog followed her, hey, so old, if her hometown is too far away, I am worried that she has not returned to her hometown, and she will ...... halfway!" The rest of the words did not continue, but it was obvious that he was very sympathetic to Mapo.

Qin Xiao immediately understood that the old black dog in his yard did not wander around, let alone die miserably, but Mapo had been taking care of him, and was finally taken away by Mapo.

"Are you her grandson?" The man was a little suspicious: "If you are her grandson, don't you know where her hometown is?" ”

Qin Xiao shook his head and said, "I'm not." Her grandson is my friend, who is dead, and before she died, she asked me to take care of Mapo, so I came here. ”

"I see." The man suddenly realized: "She didn't say where to go, only said that she was going back to her hometown, and she also said that the grandson came over and knew where her hometown was, even if she forgot it, she would remember it one day." couldn't help but say: "She is old and a little confused, if her grandchildren are alive, how can they forget where their hometown is." But you don't know where her hometown is, and I'm afraid you won't be able to find her. ”

If you just leave a casual sentence, you won't say "clan grandson."

You may have forgotten where your hometown is, and there is obviously something strange about this sentence.

It's just that he didn't understand the mystery of Hongye's words for a while, so he took a piece of broken silver from his arms and stuffed it into the man's hand, the man was stunned, and when he looked up, Qin Xiao was gone.

His heart warmed, knowing that Momiji didn't bother to take care of the old black dog, it was nothing more than because of himself.

It's just that the words left by the red leaves really made Qin Xiao a little confused.

Hongye asked this man to pass the word, obviously to prevent Qin Xiao from coming back one day, Hongye has always been taciturn, and never said nonsense, when she left, she deliberately asked the man to pass on this sentence, which must have its deep meaning.

"What's the situation?"

"After the attack on the Governor's Mansion, most of them died in battle, but Han Yunong did not die." Yuwen Chengchao said: "You are right, the most well-informed place is Lefang." A few days ago, an official named Lu Siyuan was having fun in the music square, and there was a good friend of his, surnamed Lu, who said everything to her in bed, I only gave the woman five taels of silver, and she said everything. Han Duwei and Zhen Jun were both imprisoned in the prison of the Duwei Mansion, and Lu Siyuan still showed off in front of his good friends, saying that he beat the two of them with a whip with his own hands, saying that these two people had stepped on the top of his head before, and he had endured it for many years, and finally had a chance to get out of his evil spirit. ”

Qin Xiao sneered: "Lu Siyuan is the official of Cao Cao, the torturer of Turtle City, and he has a bad stomach, it seems that he has taken refuge in rebellion." ”

Qin Xiao did not delay in Wood Lane, left Wood Lane, and arrived in a dark alley, the alley was empty, Qin Xiao sat down against the wall.

The night was cold, and the alley was pitch black, even a little eerie.

After a long while, a figure appeared at the entrance of the alley, blowing a light whistle at the alley, Qin Xiao immediately got up, stepped forward, raised his hand and waved, the figure quickly entered the dark alley, approached Qin Xiao and said, "I heard it." "It's Yuwen Chengchao.

Qin Xiao knew that Yuwen Chengchao was also an old Jianghu, and this kind of thing was naturally watertight, and it would not make a Le Ji suspicious.

"The Governor's Mansion Prison is divided into three places, A, B and C, with different locations." Qin Xiao said: "In fact, the guards of the Jiazi Prison have always been the weakest, but the other two places are heavily guarded, and it is not easy to enter the prison. If it is locked up in the Jiazi prison, we still have a chance to sneak in to rescue, I am very familiar with it, I know where the loopholes are, and I can evade the guards and sneak in, but if Han Duwei is locked up in the other two places, it will not be so easy. ”

"There is a garrison of rebels in the Governor's Mansion." Yuwen Chengchao said: "There are more than 300 good death-wing cavalry participating in the capture of Turtle City, this team of soldiers and horses seems to be stationed here, among them there are fifty or sixty people stationed in the Duwei's Mansion, Han Duwei They are imprisoned in it, those death-wing cavalry must be strictly guarded, and it is difficult to rescue." ”

"There are many officials and families in the city who have taken refuge in Cai Anyi." Yuwen Chengchao's eyes were cold, and he said lightly: "They are all greedy for life and afraid of death." ”

Qin Xiao smiled faintly: "Between life and death, most people would rather live shamelessly, how many people can really stand?" After a deep groan, he asked, "Eldest son, where is that woman imprisoned?" ”

"That's not true." Yuwen Chengchao shook his head and said: "Just in case, I didn't keep asking, many things just induced her to say it, otherwise if she noticed that I had been asking, she would probably be suspicious, turn around and sell us, and it would be more troublesome at that time." ”

Qin Xiao nodded: "Imprisoned in the Jiazi prison, the two of us can get things done." Otherwise, the strength of you and me is too weak to act rashly. He groaned slightly, and suddenly smiled: "But there is one person who can help us." ”

"You mean...... Lu Siyuan? Yuwen Chengchao immediately understood.

"Lu Siyuan alone is useless." Qin Xiao raised his hand, and there was a dice in the palm of his hand: "I have to rely on it to help!" ”
