Chapter 61: Powerless

Such a boast can be regarded as a boast of Uncle Xu's heart, and a smile immediately appeared on his face: "Where! Where! ”

drank all the tea handed by He Qifeng, and also exclaimed: "It's so sweet." ”

The two flattered each other for a long time, I was anxious to look outside, picked up a small pebble from the ground, and threw it over, just hitting Uncle Xu, he "oops", turned around, I opened my mouth, and reminded him with my mouth not to forget my husband.

At this time, He Qifeng turned his face as well, I shrank my head down, and heard his voice: "Old Immortal Xu, what's wrong?" ”

"Nothing, nothing."

Then Uncle Xu finally turned back to the topic: "Lord He, can you see Jiuchen?" ”

He Qifeng seemed to be very reluctant to talk about his husband, and his face instantly became gloomy: "I don't know, why did he come to me?" ”

"You haven't seen that before?" Uncle Xu asked.

"Yes, but it was a long time ago, we weren't all the way, how could we come together?" He Qifeng said, "If the old immortal asks me about this, I can't answer. ”

I sighed on the side, what's the matter with my husband, you can't run away from home if you make a few twists, right?

Uncle Xu inside got up to say goodbye to He Qifeng, but He Qifeng stopped him and said, "Old Immortal Xu, slow down, I'm ...... What's wrong with him? ”

"I don't know what's going on, Jiuchen hasn't gone home yet."

"It's not normal for a big man to come home late?" He Qifeng smiled dumbly, "If you want to stand up to the sky, you have to suffer first, right?" ”

"I don't dare to agree with this, Jiuchen has his own little life at home, it's better than spending all day drinking outside." Uncle Xu had already stepped out of the room half-stretched.

He Qifeng sent it out: "Old Immortal Xu, you might as well stay, the shortcomings accumulated in Jingzhou City over the years are not something I can solve alone." ”

It's really a good excuse, I scolded secretly on the side, but fortunately, Uncle Xu stood firm and was unmoved, and said, "There is nothing you can do." ”

But He Qifeng still didn't give up and stopped Uncle Xu again, and said, "If Jiuchen hasn't found it yet, the old immortal told me that I will send someone to find it." ”

Well, that's a bit of a conscience.

After coming out of He Qifeng's residence, Uncle Xu and I returned to Zhuangzi with nothing, but Fujun still hasn't come back, and the people in Zhuangzi have been in a mess, but what's the use?

I had to let them sleep first.

Over the years, I have been sleeping alone, looking at the empty side, I only feel extremely uncomfortable, do I miss him? Although I have been with my husband for more than ten years, and I love him with affection, I am a little innate cold in my bones, on the one hand, I rely on my husband, and on the other hand, I feel that it doesn't matter.

Maybe I'm really a heartless person, I don't know how long later, I fell asleep, got up early in the morning, as usual, stretched out my hand to the side, but I was empty: Oh, my husband is gone.

I got up calmly and looked out the window, it was already frosty, and the weather was much colder, so I didn't want to get out of the bed, but Uncle Xu kept knocking on the door outside the door: "Xiao Qiu'er, are you awake?" ”

"Hmm," I replied.

After hearing my voice, Uncle Xu came in without my consent, and when he saw that I was still lying on the bed, he immediately turned around: "Why haven't you gotten up yet?" Did you sleep last night? ”

I said, "It's okay." ”

"You—You're really heartless!" Uncle Xu, who had his back to me, exited my room and urged at the door, "Xiao Qiu'er, can you have a snack, Jiuchen is gone, can you still sleep well?" I didn't get a good night's sleep last night, so don't let anything happen to him. ”

"My husband is lost, what can I do? Is it possible that you won't let people sleep anymore? I replied, and got up and got dressed.

Walking out of the room, Mr. Xu grabbed my hand: "Let's go and find it." ”

My stomach screamed a few times at the right time, and I looked at Uncle Xu: "Let's eat first." ”

I really don't understand Uncle Xu's fuss, my husband is not a child, and his life is not in danger, maybe he will go home after enough trouble.

Regarding my performance, Uncle Xu muttered dissatisfiedly: "It's not that I don't have a heart, or my heart is too big!" ”

Seeing Uncle Xu's somewhat haggard face, I felt a little guilty, in the end, it was not me who cared about my husband the most, but Uncle Xu, who was fighting with him all day long, but I didn't want to pretend to be in pain in order to avoid his tongue.

Aren't things in the world, except for life and death, all trivial?

However, it seems that I am simple-minded, and my husband will not disappear for no reason.

In the past few days of searching, we have found nothing, Jingzhou City, large and small places are plastered with notices to find the husband, and the bonus has also been increased to 1,000 taels of silver, but except for the clues that some people are pretending to be or fake, the husband has no news.

It's almost winter, and there is nothing to do in Zhuangzi, thinking of what happened last time, I'm a little strange, since then, no little officials have come here to collect harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes, is it really related to the government?

Even if He Qifeng said that it had nothing to do with him, it was difficult to guarantee that it was not done by the people below, so it was best to start with the government, I told Uncle Xu about my thoughts, and he actually nodded and said: "Xiao Qiu'er, you are also smart." ”

Saying that, he turned out to be incognito and said, "I'll take a look, Xiao Qiu'er, you are at home, it's inconvenient to take you." ”

It's daytime, and it's really inconvenient to fly in the sky with me, and after these days, I'm a little used to living without a husband, and I won't say it, and it will inevitably seem too wolf-hearted.

I set up a brazier at home, and asked Lan Qi to boil a bowl of white fungus lotus seed soup, holding a notebook in his hand, but it was very comfortable, but before I knew it, at night, the house was dark, Lan Qi came in to hold the lamp, I just remembered why Uncle Xu didn't come back?

According to his temperament, he had to rush to me if he couldn't find anyone, but he didn't ......

Why is Uncle Xu also missing? I'm a little strange, could it be that someone did it on purpose, it's getting late at this time, and I won't fly in the air, so I can only wait for the carriage to go to Jingzhou City tomorrow.

That night, I slept soundly, even though the chaos kept coming into my mind.

The people in Zhuangzi were even more anxious, and one after another people couldn't find them, and even the people in the village began to discuss, and even came over early in the morning.

At this time, I was about to take a carriage to Jingzhou City to find out, but just out of Zhuangzi, I was surrounded by a large group of people, and said, "Qiu'er, what's going on?" ”

I guessed that it was related to the officials of Jingzhou City, but there was no evidence at the moment, and seeing that everyone was panicking, I said: "I don't know, I'll go to Jingzhou City today to find out." ”

But the villagers looked at me with very depressed faces: "Don't take revenge from those people, Qiu'er, don't go." ”

I know they care about me, but what will they do if I don't go? Even if there is danger, I will go, not to mention, I still have a sword spirit by my side, if there is danger, I will definitely call it out.

"I think it's those dog officials, the officials protect each other, Qiu'er, why don't we run." One humanity.

I don't know what to say, anyway, I won't run, my husband and Uncle Xu are looking for me, but for some reason, Uncle Xu's mana is so strong that he can ......

Could it be that you have met a master? I was in turmoil for a while, but now that I am alone, I am a little apprehensive, but how can I bear to let others accompany me to death?

It's better to go alone.

Seeing that I had made up my mind to go, the villagers no longer hindered me, and followed me to say goodbye with teary eyes, as if I would not come back as soon as I went.

Come to think of it, since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, and I am afraid that the last incident had offended them, and they have earned a lot of silver over the years.

If the fate comes, it gathers, and when it goes, it disperses, and there is no need to stay.

When I came to Jingzhou City, there was no difference from before, but I didn't know where to start.

It's just a coincidence, since Uncle Xu disappeared after visiting the officials of Jingzhou City, then I will also look for it.

Where to start? I think of the little officials of that day, from the lowest to the highest, one by one.

It is a little difficult to find the home of this little official, after all, I don't even know a name, I only know that it is a small errand officer of the Yamen, but there are many people like Yamen, there are thousands of people in Jingzhou City alone, and it is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find out from them about the dozen or so officials who went to Pengyang Village.

Looking for a needle in a haystack, just have a needle to fish, I inquired from house to house, and went from house to house, but they all found nothing, the only thing that is the same is that they are arrogant nine times out of ten, which I am a little annoyed about, but I will not take out the sword spirit and kill them because of this?

I am not like Uncle Xu, I can ride the clouds and fog, go back and forth freely, it is only a moment of kung fu to go to Jingzhou City, and I can only walk on my legs, this speed is not a star and a half slow, and after finding one of the dozen or so officials that day, the time has passed five days.

Sure enough, there are snakes and roads, and rats have rats, and they are united in their hearts, but they are just a small errand officer, but the residence is several grades higher than that of ordinary people.

I was neither skilled nor dexterous, and it was not the best way to go in, but to wait by the side, just for the little official to come home.

But it wasn't until the third watch in the middle of the night that I had fallen asleep behind an old locust tree, and he came.

Wobbly holding a wine jug in one hand and a woman in the other, humming a little song in his mouth, he was so unhappy.

Just when he was drunk, I rushed over with the sword spirit, and put the sword across the neck of the little official, and before I could speak, the little official over there was already trembling with fright, and the wine jug fell to the ground.
