Chapter 25: The Disappearance of Su Qi (I)

When Li Xin arrived home, the house was empty.

Li Xin said secretly: "Mother, is it really missing?" Who took my mother away? Well, send Xiaoli home first. Find Uncle Nine again and see what Uncle Nine says. ”

Thinking of this, he said to Xiaoli: "Xiaoli, I'll send you back." I'm going to my mother. ”

Xiaoli said: "Brother Xin, I'll go with you to find it, okay?" ”

"You're too small, it's inconvenient to take you with you." Li Xin shook his head.

Xiaoli said a few more words and wanted to go with Li Xin, but Li Xin refused, so she had no choice but to be sent home by Li Xin.

Coming out of Xiaoli's house, Li Xin walked north, where there were more people. didn't go far before I saw Uncle Nine coming over.

"Uncle Nine." Li Xin shouted.

"Oh, you're back." When Uncle Nine saw Li Xin, he replied absentmindedly.

"What's going on? Why is my mother gone? Li Xin was a little anxious.

Uncle Nine sighed and talked about the reason: "This morning, I passed by your house and saw your mother carrying a small basket out, so I asked her where she was going, and she said to go to the river to find some fine sand and come back, and make a sand table for you to practice calligraphy." I said I'll help her move back, but your mother said that if I go, the fine sand I found may not meet the requirements. I guess the river is not far from here, so I didn't take it to heart. ”

Li Xinxin said: "The river is more than 2 miles away from home, and it takes at most half an hour to come and go, and it takes at most 1 hour to find the right fine sand to delay some time." ”

Cui Jiu sat on the side of the road and continued: "After noon, I came to see how the sand table was made, and by the way, I asked if there was anything I needed help with, but I didn't see her figure, I was a little worried, and I didn't come back after 2 hours, thinking if the sand was too heavy and came back slowly." I followed the road to the river, and walked upstream by the river without seeing anyone. I turned around and walked a little further downstream, and at a beach I found a small basket that your mother had brought out. At this time, I had a bad premonition, but I thought it should be safe in broad daylight. I asked from door to door, and they all said that they didn't see your mother. ”

After Cui Jiu finished speaking, Li Xin and Li Xin both fell into deep thought.

After half a salary, Li Xin asked, "Has Uncle Nine asked Mrs. Cui Matchmaker?" ”

"She?" Cui Jiu shook his head: "Her family lives so far away, I offended her last time, and besides, your mother can't run to them......" Cui Jiu said here, and a thought flashed: "Do you mean?" ”

Li Xin nodded: "I think my mother, how could she disappear in broad daylight, if something happens, it must have something to do with her." ”

Hearing this, Cui Jiu's eyes were cold, and a murderous aura spread, he looked in the direction of Cui Matchmaker's residence, and said in a deep voice: "You wait for me, I'll go back and get something, and we'll go to her." ”

It didn't take long for Cui Jiu to change into a strong outfit, and the pitch-black big knife was also straddling his back.

"Uncle Jiu, who are you?" Li Xin was a little surprised when he saw the equipment that Cui Jiu had changed.

"It's been a long time since I've worn this outfit." Cui Jiu's eyes are deep, he has lived in seclusion for so many years, and today he wears this strong outfit again, as if he has returned to the years of wandering the rivers and lakes, and his heart is full of emotion:

Wandering the rivers and lakes for many years,

Covered in scars, I can't sleep at night.

Heroes are merciless,

A hundred years of life will return to dust.

In the days of the rivers and lakes, chasing and killing others, being chased and killed, you have to turn a blind eye at night, it is rare to spend a few ordinary days in this mountain, sleep a little restlessly, and it seems that you have to pick up the buried knife again, and start a long-lost life......

The two walked towards Cui Matchmaker's house. Cui Jiu disliked Li Xin walking slowly, squatted down, let Li Xin climb on his back, and ran up with Li Xin on his back.

I met a few villagers on the way, and when I saw Cui Jiu in such a hurry, I asked Cui Jiu where he was going, but Cui Jiu didn't answer, and didn't stop at all, leaving only a few stunned villagers.

The villagers began to talk.

"Where is Cui Jiu going in such a hurry with Li Xin on his back?"

"Who knows? He's a reckless man. ”

"Eh, could it be that something happened to Su Qi?"

"Just now, Cui Jiu asked from door to door if he saw Su Qi? I've also been to my house. ”

"Hehe, I heard that Cui Jiu is very capable of fighting, if anyone provokes him, he will not have a good life."

"Hehe, you've seen it?"

"You didn't see the knife on his back, when do you see him take out that knife? Such a heavy knife, at least dozens of pounds, can't it be hit? ”

"That knife Cui Jiu seems to have brought with him when he went into the mountains to hunt. Li Xin, who he carried today, what do you want to do with a knife? ”

"Who knows?"

"Gone, gone, there's a lot of work to do? What does it matter what he does, what does it have to do with us? ”

……

When he was still dozens of zhang away from Cui Da Matchmaker's mother-in-law's house, Li Xin asked Cui Jiu to put him down, such a big person, people saw that he was still back, and it made people laugh. Cui Jiu put Li Xin down, and walked a few miles in just a few miles, Cui Jiu's breath was as usual, and he didn't look tired at all.

Li Xin said: "Uncle Nine, I'll ask later." If you ask, she won't tell you even if she knew. ”

Cui Jiu didn't think so, what could a little kid ask?

Mrs. Cui was sending people out at the door at this time.

The man said: "Then please Granny Cui take care of it, and my son's affairs will be entrusted to you." ”

Mrs. Cui smiled "hehe": "Lao He, you can rest assured, we are all people who know the roots, I have eaten this bowl of rice for decades, wrapped in the old woman's body, you can go back with peace of mind." ”

Lao He said: "Everything is according to my mother-in-law's arrangement, then I will go home first." ”

Lao He said goodbye and left, saw Cui Jiu coming, and said hello, Cui Jiu just nodded indifferently, Li Xin knew Lao He, and said, "Grandpa He, hello." Lao He praised Li Xin for being sensible.

When Cui Da Matchmaker's mother-in-law turned around and went back to the house, she saw Cui Jiu and Li Xin.

Cui Jiu's face was like frost and the pitch-black big knife on his back exuded a cold air, which made Cui Jiu's heart tremble, and she said in her heart: "What is Cui Jiu doing here?" Su Qi's matter is over, what are you doing here now? Thinking of this, my mood calmed down a little.

At this time, Li Xin shouted from afar: "Granny Cui, hello! ”

"Okay? Where is it good? It's good that you're not. What are you doing here? Mrs. Cui replied.

"I'm coming for my mother."

"What are you doing with your mother coming to me? I don't have your mother here. Mrs. Cui sneered.

"Granny Cui, haven't you seen my mother today?"

"Nope."

"Mrs. Cui, Ming people don't say secret words, Su Qi is gone, it really has nothing to do with you." Cui Jiu next to him couldn't help but snort coldly, and looked directly into the eyes of Cui Da matchmaker.

Mrs. Cui was stared at by Cui Jiu's fierce eyes, and she panicked: "Lao Jiu, don't wronged good people, my mother-in-law Cui grew up here, lived here for decades, how many families have she completed, and when did she tell a lie." Ah, Su Qi is gone? It took her a long time to react, Su Qi was gone, Cui Jiu suspected that this matter had something to do with her?
