In front of you is the official road. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

Although no one knows where this is, at least they can get out of this forest, and everyone doesn't care about it.

He saluted the air behind him, and everyone set out on their way home. Xiao Jing found the traveler on the road and asked for the way, and finally rushed back to the market town where he had stayed before dark. The group angrily reported to the official, and was about to go to the black shop to find someone to settle the account, but found that the inn had already been empty, and there was not even a person left.

Could it be that there are accomplices who have reported to them?

Xiao Jing and Shao Ning's trip could not be delayed, and there was really no way, so they could only wave goodbye to their fellow refugees first, and rushed to the nearest town by car overnight.

"It's weird." Shao Ning said with a solemn face: "What is the origin of this mysterious person, why did he refuse to show up to see us after saving us?" After escaping, he didn't leave, and was sent all the way to the official road, is there this must? ”

He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said, "You say, will this person know us?" ”

"Who knows, don't think about it." Xiao Jing said lightly: "Sooner or later, you will know what you should know, and it's useless to think about what you shouldn't know." ”

Shao Ning closed his eyes thoughtfully.

Xiao Jing spoke again, and his voice was so low that he seemed to be talking to himself: "When I get to Dinghe County, in addition to the matter of infanticide, I also have to pay attention to the matter of selling and seducing." ”

Infanticide and trafficking are twin brothers. Too few young people can create a labor shortage in an area, especially for wealthy families who need a lot of manpower at home; In the same way, because of the small number of people, normal marriage will become extremely difficult, and the areas where infanticide is not because of gender are slightly better, and in those places where female infanticide is concentrated, it is "the village where there is no woman to marry, buy it in other states".

Shao Ning, who was already about to fall asleep, squeezed out a "um" from his nose, even if it was a response.

The next few days were peaceful.

The two of them were very cautious along the way, and they had to stay up alone until late at night at the hotel, and they didn't sleep until they confirmed that there was no movement. In this way, they finally arrived at Dinghe County on the evening of the fourth day.

It's not Xiao Suo in the city, but it's not very popular. As soon as he moved in, Xiao Jing said hello to Shao Ning and disappeared without a trace.

"Uncle, what big family is there in this city?"

"Auntie, I heard that there is a family around here, I don't know which one?"

"This little brother, you often go out of the city to pull goods, do you know where there are more famous people surnamed He around?"

I asked around, but I found nothing.

It's not that there are no people with the surname He, but they are all broken down, and they are not from big families. I heard an old man say that there was indeed a wealthy family surnamed He in the city decades ago, but the family moved away thirty years ago, and the time is obviously not right.

In desperation, Xiao Jing returned to his residence. He ignored Shao Ning's eyes, ran straight to the back room, closed the door, and opened He Wan'er's letter.

"Brother Jing, in fact, Wan'er is an orphan girl who was adopted. When I was a baby, my family didn't want me, so they put them in a wooden basin and floated down the river, leaving me to fend for myself...... Later, someone rescued Wan'er and raised me. Otherwise, people won't be able to see Brother Jing.

After several inquiries, the place to save me was in the lower reaches of the river in Dinghe County, about half a day by water. The destination of your business trip this time should be nearby, if it is convenient, can you help Wan'er inquire about her family?

I heard that there is a word embroidered on the swaddling clothes, so everyone calls me He Wan'er. Moreover, the materials used in the swaddling clothes are very exquisite, and at first glance they are not ordinary people's things. I'm sorry, that's all I know.

Wan'er knew that this matter was difficult, but she still wanted to ask Brother Jing for help. It's good if you can find it, but it doesn't matter if you can't find it, just treat it as no fate! Please don't tell others, Brother Jing, when you come back, people will definitely thank you! ”

If you don't have a clue, let's put it for now.

It was night, Xiao Jing had a dream. In his dream, there was a white and chubby baby smiling at him. However, the good times were short-lived; The boy laughed and laughed and suddenly burst into tears, and in a short time the flesh and skin flew apart and turned into a dry skeleton. The most terrifying thing was that the skull's jaw was still open and closed, as if there was something to say to him.

Xiao Jing was awakened. Sweating profusely, he gasped and sat on the bed until dawn.

The first stop of the day is a place called Wu Li Fang.

The reason why I came to this place is because it is very special: according to local legend, as long as a child is drowned here, he can be reincarnated quickly and without resentment against his parents in this life. Therefore, Wulifang has become a famous infanticide holy place in Dinghe County.

The vast majority of parents who are determined to kill their own children only need a wooden basin. People who are willing to come to Wulifang may still have a little conscience and forbearance in their hearts.

Before the time came, Xiao Jing and Shao Ning were lurking in the woods near Wulifang. The river in the east of Dinghe County has the most turbulent water flow in this section, which is also an important reason why many people choose to start here.

An hour passed, and there was no movement by the river;

Two hours passed, and there was still no movement by the river.

Shao Ning waited impatiently. He changed his posture and said, "Why don't we go back, it's all for nothing today." ”

Xiao Jing took a bite of dry food and said, "Wait a little longer." ”

Shao Ning pursed his lips and was about to speak, but Xiao Jing suddenly reached out and covered his mouth.

Someone's coming!

A young woman walked to the river with a panicked expression. In her arms, a newborn baby was sleeping soundly.

Soon, she walked to the river and crouched down, as if to say something to the child.

About twenty meters away, there were a few people doing laundry. They casually looked at the mother and son, and chatted enthusiastically again.

This kind of thing, they are no longer strange.

Now is the time!

Without waiting for Xiao Jing to give an order, Shao Ning rushed out like a leopard that saw its prey, leaving Xiao Jing far behind. When President Xiao ran to the river, he was already arguing with the woman with an angry face, and looking at the posture, if the other party was not a woman, he would have used force.

Xiao Jing looked carefully at the woman in front of him.

There was a bit of sadness on her face, but it wasn't heavy. Her eyes were also a little red, but no tears were falling.

With the little effort that the two of them ran down, she had already untied the swaddling clothes. The naked child felt the coolness outside, and he pulled his neck and cried because he had been sleeping peacefully.

"The child is mine, I want you to take care of it!" The woman screamed, "Where did you come from, wild man, dog is nosy with rats!" ”

As she spoke, she raised her arms and prepared to throw the child into the river.
