Chapter 187: Tell the Truth (Three Watches)
"Hmm!" Tao Liuyi nodded when he heard this.
"I'll go too." Yao Changsheng ran after her, glanced back and said, "I'll leave it to you here." ”
Tao Qini chased Qiao Erniu into the village, all of which were low adobe houses, looking at more than a dozen households, surrounded by wooden fences into small courtyards, and some vegetables were planted in front of the door.
At noon, it felt like the village was quiet, as if there was no one.
"What the hell?" The sudden terrible scream startled Tao Qini, and she ran over.
"Don't come here, don't come here." The old woman cried out in horror.
"Auntie, I'm not a ghost, I'm not a ghost, I'm a second girl." Qiao Erniu approached her and said.
"Ahh She waved her arms and shouted loudly, trying to stop Qiao Erniu from approaching.
"She's not a ghost, a ghost doesn't have a shadow, does she!" Tao Qini pulled Qiao Erniu, who wanted to approach her, and hurriedly said, "It's noon, will ghosts haunt?" Aunt. ”
"Isn't it a ghost? But wasn't the second girl pulled to the vegetable market by his father yesterday? She covered her face and opened her five fingers, looking at Qiao Erniu from between her fingers, the bright shadow, "It turns out that you are not dead!" I'm scared to death. She patted her chest and stood up against the wall behind her, "Ah! Your brother was taken away by a wolf, and your father went to look for it, but he hasn't come back yet. ”
"What did you say?" Qiao Erniu hurriedly stepped forward and asked hurriedly.
"Don't come here, just stand there and talk." She looked at Qiao Erniu with some fear and said.
"What I said is true, the wolf took your brother away, and everyone in the village saw it and helped chase it, but it didn't catch up." "We don't have the energy, we can't run at all, we can only watch the wolf take your brother away." ”
"Wow......" Qiao Erniu knelt on the ground and cried, "Mother, brother." ”
Now she is the only one left in the world, and all her relatives are gone overnight.
Yao Changsheng chased over and looked at the scene, "What's going on?" ”
Tao Qini took two steps back and looked at him to explain the situation.
"Taken by a wolf?" Yao Changsheng raised his eyebrows and looked the old woman up and down, "Can you let us go to Qiao's house to have a look?" ”
"Of course, right here." The old woman trembled and pointed to the adobe house not far behind them.
Yao Changsheng and Tao Qini followed her fingers and walked two steps to arrive.
The two stood outside the wooden fence, "There are really wolf footprints." Yao Changsheng looked at the yard, although there were footsteps, but he could clearly see the footprints of the wolf.
"You won't suspect that he was ......," Tao Qini lowered her head slightly and whispered.
"A three-year-old child, locked up at home, anything can happen." Yao Changsheng pushed open the wooden fence with a cold face and walked in, "It's not that I'm maliciously guessing, it's really unpredictable?" ”
"Don't we have to go to the county government to report this?" Tao Qini stood outside the fence and looked at him and said.
"As for the county master, do you think he will seriously investigate the case?" Hearing this, Yao Changsheng stopped and looked back at her and said, "The child was taken away by a wolf, and the people in the village can testify when they see it, there is nothing to judge." ”
"What about Erniu's father? That's murder! Tao Qini looked at him and said.
"You can't catch the report, the person has already run away, and now in this world, you can't catch it." Yao Changsheng looked at her and said, "Go find the village and let him prove the whole process." ”
"Lizheng?" Tao Qini looked at him with a puzzled face when she heard this.
Yao Changsheng patted his forehead and looked at her and explained, "It's the person in charge of the village on weekdays or a person of high morality. ”
Tao Qini looked back at the old woman and said, "Is there one?" Erniu's father was killed outside the village. ”
"What?" The old woman looked at them with a frightened face and said.
"It's true, you'd better find someone." Tao Qini looked at her and urged.
"Okay, okay." The old woman staggered to find someone, and soon found an old man with a cane, with gray hair and beard, and his face was full of traces carved by time, "This is my father, and he will be asked to administer justice in the village." ”
Witnessed by the village, Yao Changsheng and the others entered the adobe house, and from the extent of the damage to the windows, the wolf jumped up and knocked it open, and then took the child on the kang away.
and let the father who followed the second girl to be buried.
"Erniu come here." Li Zheng bent down slightly and looked at her kindly and said, "You have met good people, they are particular about people, and their actions are also decent, and you must obediently listen to the words of the master in the future." ”
"Yes, Grandpa!" Qiao Erniu nodded with tears in her eyes.
"Alright, let's go!" Li Zheng looked at her and waved his hand, "It's not easy to live, you have to live well." ”

When the sun set, they found a place where they had stopped, set up camp, and buried pots to cook.
Hunt two hares, and have everything for dinner.
After eating and drinking, Tao Liuyi and Han Jinhu practiced their sword skills for a while, and then they were sleepy, and they walked for a day, they were tired, and they rested early.
"Nier, I'll sleep first, and I'll be on duty in the middle of the night." Tao Liuyi lay on the straw mat and looked at her and said.
"Okay!" Tao Qini took the wolf skin from the wheelbarrow and let them cover her body, "I look at the dew, the night is as cold as water, and it's quite cold." ”
He wrapped the wolf skin around his body, burned the bonfire vigorously, and listened to the small snoring sound from the four of them, and gently pulled the corners of his lips, "I slept quite fast." His gaze fell on Yao Changsheng, who was not far away, "Why don't you sleep." ”
"I'm thinking about this martial arts field, can you go back and tell them?" Yao Changsheng raised his head, looked at her with burning eyes and asked, his eyes red from the firelight.
"Say!" Tao Qini looked at him and said without thinking, "Tell the truth." ”
"Aren't you afraid that they have other ideas?" Yao Changsheng looked at her in surprise and said, feeling that her decision was too hasty!
"What you said is just speculation, in case of high school, in their eyes, it will be promoted and rich, and they will be prosperous from then on." Yao Changsheng looked at her straight and said.
"Hehe......" Tao Qini looked at him amusedly and said, "You're saying they don't have brains." ”
"They don't know how powerful it is, and I'm sure you know that even in high school, it's hard to gain a foothold in Yanjing City! If you don't have money to open the way, you will only be played by those old fritters in the officialdom. Yao Changsheng looked at her calmly with his eyes and said, "It's not that I look down on them, they are not very knowledgeable, and it is good for them to be reduced to eagle dogs in the end." ”
Tao Qini nodded when she heard this, "It's still useful to be reduced to a chess piece, I'm most afraid that it's an outcast, and I don't even have the qualifications to go on stage." ”
"Then you have to tell me." Yao Changsheng looked at her incomprehensibly and said, "Left and right are not good results." ”
