"Putting that aside, have you seen or provoked any strange people lately?"

After confirming Uncle Wu's whereabouts, Ye Yan thought that if he wanted to find Uncle Wu, it would be best to understand the group of people who were looking for Uncle Wu first.

Why are those people looking for Uncle Wu? Who are they?

Wu Xiaoxiao shook her head and didn't say anything, just stared at him directly.

“......”

The corners of Ye Yan's eyes twitched slightly, could it be because of himself?

In this way, he has also analyzed it before. The reason why the original owner has disappeared in the East Vein Forest for so long is probably because there is a force at work in the dark.

If this force is just to vent its anger and want to make Uncle Wu angry, it would be reasonable, but that would inevitably make Ye Yan look down on them.

Instead of making no sense, this could expose their whereabouts.

"It's been so long since the disappearance of the original owner, and that force has been holding back, without any movement, and it may be a little reluctant to vent his anger. ”

Ye Yan felt that it was very likely that Uncle Wu had something or information they wanted, or he didn't want Uncle Wu to take out something that was unfavorable to them and spread information that was unfavorable to them.

What exactly?

"Xiaoxiao, do you remember what Uncle Wu told you about when he found me?"

It might be helpful to know what was going on at the time.

"Father said that he was passing by the edge of the lonely woods and found you unconscious in the grass. ”

Wu Xiaoxiao scratched her head and recalled, "At that time, you were soaking wet, but your clothes were clean, which caught his attention. ”

"On the one hand, my father has been hunting in the East Vein Forest all the year round, and he knows the terrain and rivers well, and he told me that the place where you fell unconscious is more than ten miles away from the nearest river, and if you had come from there, the water on your body would have dried up long ago. ”

"But the strange thing is that you were like you had just been fished up from the river, and your clothes were exceptionally clean, including the shoes on your feet, which could be said to be spotless. ”

Ye Yan frowned, he understood Uncle Wu's doubts.

It is normal for a person to appear in the depths of the East Vein Forest, with some traces of fighting with spirit beasts.

But the original owner is like that...... It's as if it appeared out of thin air in the East Vein Forest.

Coupled with the water on his body, Ye Yan first thought that someone had moved the original owner to the East Vein Forest, and used some means to erase or lock the memory of the original owner.

That water is just a vestige of "some means".

"What else?"

"It should be gone, right?" Wu Xiaoxiao thought about it, and it seemed that there was nothing special anymore.

"Because you are wearing a vow, my father thinks that an ordinary person as young as you, since he can have a vow, then he must be a child of a big family. ”

"After bringing you to the house in a coma, my father went out to inquire a little, and learned the news that the young master of the Ye family was lost in the forest. ”

"Then your father will send you back. Wu Xiaoxiao thought about it, and that's all she knew.

"Oh yes, there's another one," Wu Xiaoxiao patted her head and said, "Father saw it when he investigated your identity, and your ring was empty. ”

"Empty?" Ye Yan wondered.

Seeing Ye Yan's look of disbelief, Wu Xiaoxiao immediately said vigilantly: "We didn't take anything from you!"

"I know!" Ye Yan rolled his eyes, "Since Uncle Wu dares to send me back safely, then he will definitely not take what is on me." ”

"Otherwise, when I wake up, will I still be good with him?"

Wu Xiaoxiao stuck out her tongue.

"I think no one has touched my vows. ”

Ye Yan explained: "You see, if I encounter a robber in the East Vein Forest, it is impossible to take only the Na Ring, it should be taken away in its entirety. ”

"After all, there is nothing special about my ring, the price is expensive, and it is very easy to make a shot. ”

"You don't have to take out the contents of the ring and put it back, right?"

"Makes sense!" Wu Xiao nodded.

"Then you say that I, an ordinary person with no power, where did I get the courage to enter the East Vein Forest alone without anything?" Ye Yan asked rhetorically.

Wu Xiaoxiao thought about it for a while, but couldn't think of anything.

"All in all, Uncle Wu will leave it to me. ”

Ye Yan waved his hand and said, not to mention that this matter is very likely to be related to him, Uncle Wu also saved his life, so that he would not become a spirit beast's dinner just after being reborn, so he had to help with this favor.

Moreover, he also wanted to learn more about the scene at that time through Uncle Wu.

"Then, you can stay too, this environment is too dangerous right now. Ye Yan rubbed his little head, and without waiting for the other party to refute, he shouted outside the house:

"Xia Lan, come in!"

There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Xia Lan came to the room: "Young master, you called me?"

As she spoke, she still held half a carrot in her hand.

The corners of Ye Yan's mouth twitched slightly, and said, "Xiaoxiao, you can arrange it, let her stay for the time being......"

"Ah!" Xia Lan exclaimed, "Xiaoxiao is still young, young master, if you want, I can ......"

Ye Yan's face darkened: "What are you thinking! I'll let you arrange Xiaoxiao in the passenger compartment." ”

This Nizi, what's going on in her head!

"I'm sorry young master, it's me who thought wrong......"

Xia Lan's face turned red, it turned out that it was not that the young master wanted it, but that she was wrong.

"It's good that I didn't say it completely......"

Xia Lan pinched a handful of sweat in her heart, just now she was in a hurry, and almost told the young master that she had been preparing for this day for a long time.

She asked her friends about at least thirty places for people to have fun, both bright and dark, large and small.

After comparative analysis, she chose a few places suitable for the young master's identity, and once the young master had a need, she took the young master to relax.

She even allocated a small amount of "Young Master's Happy Fund" from a dozen silver coins for this purpose, just in case of emergency.

"Xiaoxiao, you tell Xia Lan the address of that Aunt Nalan, and Xia Lan will send someone to tell her. ”

"In addition, if there is nothing to do in the near future, it is best not to go out, if you have to go out, remember to tell Xia Lan. ”

"Can I ask Sister Xia Lan to help me buy some materials for drawing formations?"

Wu Xiaoxiao's eyes were shining, and he looked expectant.

"Yes, you tell Xia Lan the materials you want, and she will let the family buy them for you, and the account will be credited to me. ”

"Yay!"

Seeing Wu Xiaoxiao's cheering appearance, Ye Yan couldn't help but smile: "Then, tomorrow I will go to the Dongmai Forest, if I find the traces of Uncle Wu by then, I will tell you when I come back." ”

Let Xia Lan take Wu Xiaoxiao down to settle down, Ye Yan sighed lightly.

Although I got a lot of information from the other party, there were also more doubts.

For example, as far as Ye Yan knows, the original owner walked out of the city alone, and after more than half a month, it should be impossible for the clothes to be spotless.

Could it be that the gang used him and changed him into a set of clothes?

For another example, the original owner took the ring empty, did he really not bring anything, or was someone with a heart deliberately take the things inside?

If it was taken, what was taken away?

Ye Yan's intuition told him that tomorrow's trip to the East Vein Forest would never be peaceful.

Those filthy things hiding in the shadows must appear one by one.
