The young man from the pharmacy followed the two of them, thoughtful. He suddenly realized that he didn't seem to have done anything, turned around and ran back to the pharmacy quickly, grabbed a few pairs of medicines, took them and went out, and in a short time caught up with the mother and daughter.

The woman looked at the fair-skinned boy and wondered why he had caught up.

The fair-skinned young man smiled on his face, without saying a word, and directly stuffed the few pairs of medicines in his hand into the woman's arms, the latter was stunned at first, and then seemed to remember something, wiped his tears, and barely squeezed out a smile: "I thank you for An An." ”

The fair-skinned young man waved his hand, urging them to hurry back, it was indeed not early.

The woman nodded, and An An in her arms sped up her steps, only this time her steps became lighter.

When the mother and son returned home, they found that the man was snoring, the woman sighed lightly, scolded the man without conscience, and went back to Xi An'an's room, but the woman couldn't sleep after tossing and turning.

Can this man still fall asleep?

Alas, how can there be a father in this world who gives up his daughter?

The woman's mind was full of thoughts, but after such a night of tossing, she was indeed a little tired, and finally fell asleep.

But Xi An'an, who was on the side, suddenly opened his eyes.

The little girl turned her back to the woman, turned to lie on her side, and thought to herself, if it weren't for my illness, my mother wouldn't have shed tears. The little girl had never fallen asleep from the beginning, and she was lying on a chair in the pharmacy pretending to be asleep, and vaguely she heard words such as silver and medicine, even though she was young, she could now know why her mother ran away from home in the middle of the night with her, not to mention that she left behind... Her father.

In fact, Xi An'an has no complaints about her father, the family is already poor, and in this world, what status does a girl have, although her father talks every day about why he doesn't have a son, saying that if he has, he can help him move goods or something, but Xi An'an has never heard his father say that he regrets giving birth to her.

This alone is enough, Xi An'an thinks in his heart, maybe when he grows up and can go out to earn some silver, his father won't think like this, right?

Well, it must be so.

That night, nine-year-old Xi An fell asleep with tears in her eyes.

It was not easy for him to break free from the incident of "One Knife Guest", he had a bad time in the past few months, and he went to the market to sell fish intermittently, he never understood why the person on the dark list came to him, if it wasn't for the matter of One Knife Guest, how could he come to his door to ask him about sugar gourd.

This tall young man really didn't know what to do in the past few months, he only felt that when facing the man in black, there was no room for resistance at all, if it wasn't for Zhiqiu to say a few words later, he barely had a strong premonition.

The man in black would have killed himself.

As for why the man in black didn't kill him, he couldn't figure it out, maybe it was really the reason why Zhiqiu answered about the sugar gourd?

No matter what, the tall boy still feels that his strength is too low. Therefore, Mian Zhi has been practicing the Taoist method of absorbing and exhaling qi in the past few months, and this method of exhaling qi was originally learned in that mountain before. But he hadn't practiced more than two years ago, because he came to Gusuzhou because of some things three years ago, and when he went down the mountain, he decided that he would not practice this exhalation method.

It just happened that in the past three years in Suzhou, it has been calm, and Mian Zhi has not even used the Taoist method except for using some fists and feet to teach Zhiqiu a lesson.

But he finally met the man in black who could make him nervous.

The strength is still too low, and he has stopped in the Tongjing realm for three years, even if he picks up the method of vomiting for a while, he still can't break through the identity for the time being.

Even if he didn't think that the man in black would find him again for a while, it was always good to be prepared. The tall boy has been on that mountain for five years, and his talent is not the highest, but in terms of diligence, he is one of the best in the whole mountain, which is why he can be said by the master to be the youngest Yitongjing.

But Mianzhi has been hesitating for a long time, even if he didn't continue to practice that exhalation method, he still fights some boxing techniques every day, but why did he still stagnate? Could it be that Master said such things at that time just to stabilize my state of mind?

Mian Zhi didn't know that he had been practicing that mind method whenever he had been in the past few months, walking, sleeping, meditating, and even now he would often get lost when he walked on the road from time to time, not knowing where he had gone.

Before dawn, he went to the riverside to meditate for two hours, and when he returned home, he found Zhiqiu sitting at the door, drowsy. The tall boy felt a little strange, he took his hand and touched Zhiqiu, but Zhiqiu did not react.

So the tall boy used a little more force to touch Zhiqiu, who woke up suddenly, and before he could speak, Zhiqiu asked loudly: "Hey, stupid big man, do you know where Ji Zhengyi went?"

Mian Zhi was stunned, he thought he was asking Ji Zhengyi where he was at this time, so he replied angrily: "Where else can it be, I must have gone to the cabin at this time." ”

Zhiqiu shook his head and said anxiously: "Why am I asking you this, I am asking where Ji Zhengyi has been during this time?"

At this time, Mian Zhi felt that things didn't seem to be simple, he thought about it, and said in a deep voice: "You mean, Ji Zhengyi is missing?

Zhiqiu saw Mianzhi's answer, and sighed in his heart, looking at this scene, this stupid big man probably didn't know where Ji Zhengyi went.

Where else can this man run? He can leave the cabin behind, and he can leave the old Taoist priest behind. Zhiqiu couldn't understand in his heart, he didn't answer Mianzhi's words, he sighed softly, patted Mianzhi's shoulder, and prepared to turn around and leave.

Seeing that Zhiqiu didn't answer, Mian Zhi's heart tightened, thinking that something should have happened, he grabbed Zhiqiu and asked loudly, "Let me ask you, what happened to Ji Zhengyi?"

Zhiqiu was pulled a little painfully, he frowned slightly, and when he saw it, he let go of his hand.

Zhiqiu said slowly: "Ji Zhengyi hasn't been to the cabin for a few days, this is what Mr. Wen told me, that's why I came to ask you, I thought you knew." ”

Mian Zhi felt a little strange, and continued to ask: "In this way, you should have gone to his house and knocked on the door just now, right? There should be no answer, what about his parents?

Mian Zhi knew that Ji Zhengyi's father was carrying goods at the dock, but when he was practicing the exhalation method by the river just now, there was no one to carry it there.

He had a hunch that Ji Zhengyi's family was gone.

Zhiqiu didn't even respond, and sat directly on the ground.

Seeing this, he suddenly felt a little angry, and he stepped forward to pull Zhiqiu up, and the latter was pulled up by the tall man like a shriveled puppet, with no expression on his face.

Mian Zhi sorted out his thoughts and said, "Let's calm down first, and think about the last time the two of us saw Ji Zhengyi, did he have any special reaction, this is the first point." Second, let's think about whether Ji Zhengyi has any enemies, or we will check whether his parents have enemies later. Third...."He paused at the third o'clock, not knowing what to say, and continued, "For the rest of you, you have a brighter mind. ”

Zhiqiu was not polite, and said in a deep voice: "Third, think about why Ji Zhengyi said goodbye without saying goodbye? There are only two reasons, one is that there is an urgent matter at home, and the whole family has left Gusuzhou together, but this is not very likely, with his temperament, although it is a little colder, but how can he say goodbye to the other people in Yushui Street, Anwu? Xu Jing? Or you, especially you, as the second brother of Yushui Street, will Ji Zhengyi not tell you? The second reason is simple and clear, he was taken away, and it is very likely that he was taken away by the enemy, as for what the enemy is, I don't know for the time being. ”

Mian Zhi nodded, agreeing with Zhiqiu's analysis. But he couldn't figure out what kind of enemies Ji Zhengyi could have, so he continued to ask: "What do you think Ji Zhengyi can have enemies? His parents seem to be ordinary people, otherwise they wouldn't have come to live on Yushui Street." ”

Zhiqiu didn't know in his heart, he had already asked the pigeon to check Ji Zheng's life, but he hadn't replied yet. He now felt that he could only stabilize first, and now he comforted the tall boy and said: "Let's not spread the news now, when the sky is brighter, let's go and ask An Wu together, An Wu and Ji Zhengyi are classmates, Ji Zhengyi hasn't come to the cabin for so long, why hasn't An Wu asked you?" I don't think it's normal." ”

Mian Zhi felt that there was indeed some truth, if Ji Zhengyi suddenly disappeared, why did Mr. Wen come to find Zhiqiu, not An Wu?

After discussing it for a while, the two prepared to wait and go to the cabin together. As they were about to go out, they met An Wu, who caught a glimpse of the two of them and smiled and said hello.

Mian Zhi couldn't help it, and took the lead in rushing over and asked, "Anwu, hasn't Ji Zhengyi been to the cabin for a long time?"

When An Wu heard this, he first paused for a second, and then smiled: "Oh, you said Xiaoyi, he told me that he was going to go on a long trip with his parents, as if he was going to see distant relatives." ”

Zhiqiu looked at An Wu from the side, and felt a little strange in his heart, as if he had never heard of Ji Zhengyi having relatives outside, but since he said that he was a distant relative, there was still a possibility.

Maybe I'm too worried? Zhiqiu couldn't help but doubt himself, but if he remembered correctly, the pigeon came to report that Ji Zhengyi was out of Suzhou alone, and was not with his parents.

Then why did An Wu lie?

Or is it that Ji Zhengyi also deceived An Wu?

Zhiqiu didn't go up to talk, and continued to listen to the two of them.

After listening to this, he continued: "Did Ji Zhengyi and Mr. Wen talk about it?"

An Wu shook his head and said, "Xiao Yi didn't tell Mr., because he told me that day on the way back to Yushui Street in Fangtang, and then Mr. asked me, and I also told Mr. so, so Mr. also knows." ”

When Zhiqiu heard this, he was even more surprised in his heart, if Mr. Wen had already heard An Wu's words, he still came to ask himself, indicating that Mr. Wen also didn't believe An Wu's words, or didn't believe what Ji Zhengyi did?

Zhiqiu stepped forward and asked a few words casually, and was ready to take Mian Zhi away.

After hearing An Wu's words, Mian Zhi breathed a little relief in his heart, so he walked outside with Zhiqiu.

When the two turned to leave, An Wu's expression was complicated, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
