The man in black thought for a while, but he didn't think of anything strange, he looked at Su Wanqing, shook his head with some confusion and said, "Sixth princess, what strange things are they dressing?" ”

Su Wanqing pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Shadow, did you investigate this village before you came?" What did you say at the time? Piaomei Village is isolated, most of the men are working outside, and there are only the elderly and children at home, so where did those women go? ”

The man in black was stunned, and then muttered, "Sixth Imperial Princess, aren't many of those women missing?" Otherwise, they wouldn't have gone around looking for people before. ”

"Herein lies the problem." Su Wanqing said softly.

"Don't you think it's all too weird? Obviously, so many people are missing, but the people in this village don't seem to have taken any measures at all, living and doing things. Even if the old woman said that she had driven her daughter-in-law back, it was impossible for the daughters-in-law of every family to be driven back, right? ”

"This-" The man in black suddenly froze, and after Su Wanqing said this, he also felt that this matter was indeed very strange in itself.

Su Wanqing continued: "Besides, the man with the scar just now also said that if we don't leave, they will go to report to the official." I know he's just scaring us, and there's no government at all in this area. ”

"That'...... Sixth Princess, why are we leaving? ”

Su Wanqing thought for a while, shook her head and said, "The situation just now, even if we continue to entangle, it doesn't make the slightest sense. I don't think that if we overwhelm them by force, they will say what they know. The old women, too, suppose they live in this not so wealthy village, and the men work hard outside to earn money, they are not intellectuals, and naturally they can only rely on manual labor to earn money, which does not earn much at all. Under such circumstances, the fact that those old women were dressed up brightly one by one was very strange in itself. ”

Xu Che next to him also said loudly: "What the sixth princess said, Xu Che also noticed it. Moreover, most of the old women were sallow-faced, and looked to be malnourished by their labor, but they were dressed in a way that did not fit in with them. ”

Su Wanqing nodded and glanced at Xu Che approvingly.

"Xu Gongzi is right, that's exactly what he said."

The man in black scratched his head, he only felt that his brain capacity was really not enough. The problem is indeed as the six princesses said.

"But why is that?"

Su Wanqing showed a somewhat helpless smile and said: "If we can understand why, we are afraid that the mystery behind this will also be solved." ”

She thought for a while and said to Su Yu: "Xiao Yu, aren't all the younger women in this Piaomei Village in the village?" None of them exist? ”

Su Yu thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, a few days ago, Aunt Mo's daughter came out to pick plum blossoms, and I greeted her, but she didn't want to pay attention to me." ”

"Daughter......"

Su Wanqing thought for a while, and then asked a question that sounded a little irrelevant: "Xiaoyu, do you know that this Piaomei Village is so isolated from the world, and the villagers generally intermarry with each other?" ”

To Su Wanqing's surprise, Su Yu shook his head and said: "No, the sisters who got married in Piaomei Village were all found from outside, and the villagers of Piaomei Village did not have the habit of intermarrying each other, they felt that they were relatives of each other, and intermarriage might have a bad impact on the children in the future." Therefore, if those brothers and uncles are looking for a daughter-in-law, they all rely on their own skills to go out to find them. ”

Su Yu's meaning is very simple, the daughters-in-law here are all married in from outside.

Is it related......

Su Wanqing didn't expect that this Piaomei Village was so backward, but she didn't expect that the thinking of the people here was quite "advanced". They actually knew that intermarriage between relatives could give birth to deformed offspring.

But how would they know these things? Although this is not a secret in modern times, it can even be said that everyone knows it. But here, after all, it's not modern.

Layer after layer of doubts floated up like water waves, all surrounding Su Wanqing's heart.

Why is the village so indifferent to the disappearance of his daughter-in-law?

Why is the old woman here dressed so out of place?

They seem to be deliberately hiding something.

Daughter......

Daughter-in-law......

New embroidered shoes......

Two nameless female corpses......

A grim face that refuses to admit it......

A flash of spiritual light suddenly flashed, and Su Wanqing's eyes suddenly lit up.

"I see!"

Everyone was stunned for a moment, and Ying immediately asked, "Sixth Imperial Princess, what do you know?" Do you know the quirkiness behind this Piaomei Village? ”

Su Wanqing looked at them and nodded slowly.

There was a hint of curiosity in Xu Che's eyes.

"Sixth Princess, may I ask what is going on?"

"Do you know why the people in Piaomei Village are so resistant to outsiders entering? And we were so nervous about applying when we asked about the missing daughter-in-law? Su Wanqing thinks about it now, and she was not wrong at that time.

When she was asking the old woman's daughter-in-law, her expression changed for a moment, and a hint of ...... flashed in her eyes Guilty. That's right, it's a weak heart!

But why did she look like this? Think of the words she said, the out-of-place dress, and the words that Xiao Yu said.

In fact, the truth is very simple, it's just that Su Wanqing hasn't reacted before.

The man in black looked at Su Wanqing who was contemplative, a little anxious, and he couldn't care about each other's identities, so he hurriedly asked, "Sixth princess, are you talking?" "God knows, they were so busy with these things before, and they also took the life of Yao Lao, if they can't find out the truth, they won't be able to explain to the emperor when they go back.

Su Wanqing said lightly: "You should have also noticed that the dress of those old women is a very strange thing in itself. And in the face of the missing daughters-in-law, their expressions are very cold, and they don't seem to have any other feelings. It's obviously missing, but he said that he drove him back to his parents' house. Moreover, these daughters-in-law are all outsiders, not from the village at all. ”

After Xu Che heard this, he seemed to think of something, and his expression changed.

After a while, he muttered: "What do the six princesses mean is that those missing daughters-in-law may be related to the people in this village?" ”

Su Wanqing glanced at Xu Che approvingly, then looked at the unbelievable black-clothed man next to her, and nodded slowly, "That's right." ”

"How could it be ......," said the black cloth stupidly, and he asked his doubts, "But what good is this for them?" That's their own daughter-in-law! ”

Su Wanqing's expression gradually became serious and said: "The people in this village are very xenophobic, even the daughter-in-law is no exception. Maybe for them. The daughter-in-law is gone, and the son will find another one. You see the clothes on them, the daughter-in-law has just disappeared for a few days, and the clothes on the old woman look like they have only been bought for a short time. I suspect that maybe the people in this village have something to do with what organization, and the price is ......."

"It's their daughter-in-law!" The man in black was startled and subconsciously said this.

Several of his subordinates next to him listened to it, and their faces were incredible.

"How is that possible...... It's too cruel for them to do this......" The man in black couldn't help but mutter.

Xu Che said in a deep voice: "But according to what the six princesses said, we have also seen that they are indeed very unkind to outsiders, and there is no intermarriage in this village. If this is the case, they will ...... their daughters-in-law It's not impossible to change hands. ”

Xu Che held back for a long time, but still used the word change hands.

But everyone present knew very well that there was no difference between this change of hands and the sale.

"They're trafficking in human beings, which is illegal!" The man in black said in surprise.

Su Wanqing looked at Su Yu, who looked a little shocked next to her, and knew that he was a little difficult to accept for a while. But she didn't avoid him when she said this, and in the future, Xiao Yu will have a lot of things to face, and he is not destined to grow up in peace.

If you want to be strong, you have to learn to accept everything in reality.

Pei Xiu, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said lightly: "In the wilderness here, there is no government nearby at all, so these people dare to be so unscrupulous." At the feet of the Son of Heaven, I didn't expect such a dirty thing to happen. If we don't come this time, I'm afraid we don't know that such a thing will happen. ”

Su Wanqing nodded.

Her sleeves tightened, Su Wanqing lowered her head, and saw that Su Yu was grabbing her sleeves, looking at her with some melancholy.

After a while, Su Yu spoke: "Sister, is this true?" Where have all the missing people gone......

Su Wanqing said softly: "Do you really want to know? Maybe the answer isn't what you want to hear, Xiaoyu, the reality is cruel. But that's why we're here. ”

Su Yu hesitated for a long time, but still made up his mind and nodded: "Hmm! Sister, I want to know, just tell me! Although I have been in Piaomei Village for so long, they have always been very unfriendly to me, but this is the place where I grew up after all, and some of those missing sisters, some of them still look at me pitifully and give me food......"

Su Wanqing touched Su Yu's head, looked at the man in black and said in a deep voice, "Move the things out of the back compartment." "The back compartment is naturally the place where the two bodies are stored.

The man in black was startled, and subconsciously wanted to refuse, Su Yu, this child is still so young, it's not appropriate for him to look at this, right?

But seeing Su Wanqing's calm eyes, all the words were swallowed.

The man in black silently turned around and walked to the back compartment.
