Lin Longfeng was able to turn the carriage in a different direction in an instant, Hu Yanjin no longer cared about the little flame on the back panel of the carriage, took out his whip and shouted: "And pass!" ”

Lin Longfeng didn't understand his reasoning, so he rushed towards the fleeing sneak attacker with the carriage, and he was about to catch up with him, but he suddenly rushed down the grassy slope on the side of the road, their carriage couldn't rush, and if he rushed down, it would fall apart, so they had to give up.

When he turned back to the place where he had struck down the man in front of him, he saw that there were bows and arrows left on the ground, and the men and horses were gone.

"It's a carriage today, let them escape!" Lin Longfeng gritted his teeth and said, got out of the car and checked the rear compartment board, the fire had been extinguished, only the recessed piece remained, and the side was charred black.

Hu Yanjin closed the lid on the roof of the car and retracted himself into the car, only to find that Hua Qiao had been hugging his legs tightly underneath. He was moved and amused, and said, "Silly girl, you can let go." ”

Hua Qiao let go of her hand, Hu Yanjin sat down beside her, bowed her head and asked, "Scared?" ”

"I'm afraid, I'm afraid you'll be hit by an arrow just now." Hua Qiao replied honestly: "Daddy used to say that he is a doctor first, and I still think that a doctor is of any use, and he can't help solve the case." Can you just ...... I wish I was a healer. ”

"Flower buckwheat...... Here, many truths are bloody, even a scar that cannot be revealed......"

"I know." Hua Qiao rubbed her face and said with a smile: "I'm not afraid!" Let's go! We have to hurry up, tomorrow is the fifteenth, and see if it is necessary for us to go to the temple to ask for a marriage. ”

"We ...... Do you still need to ask for it? Heavenly King Lao Tzu opposes, I will marry you too. Hu Yanjin still has this self-confidence, although his father is strict, but after all, he is his only relative, he is fierce, and he still hopes that his son can be happier than him.

"Tianwang Lao Tzu will not object, I don't know if there are other girls who oppose it." After Lin Longfeng finished speaking, he jumped into the carriage and shook the whip with a smile.

"Brother Lin, tell me quickly, what girl is against? How many are there? ”

"Oh girl, that's a long story......"

"Lin Longfeng, you dare to make a rumor to try."

"Try it!"

The carriage began to trot, the bell on the horse's neck rang straight, and the three of them talked and laughed as if nothing had happened just now.

Soon they were outside the house of the missing officer. Although it is only a low house, surrounded by a bamboo fence outside, it can be seen that the owner is very industrious, the small yard is neat, and the ground in front of the door is neatly planted with cabbage that can be picked.

A white-haired old woman sat on a low bamboo chair with a sickle in the basket next to her, and it seemed that she was about to pick vegetables, but she was crazy about it.

"Old woman......" Hua Qiao called softly, but she didn't react, Hua Qiao raised her voice and called twice, and the old woman turned her eyes to them.

"You ...... Did you find the pillar? The old woman suddenly came to her senses, hurriedly came over and opened the fence door and asked, "Pillar...... Has my Li Zhu been found? ”

"Also...... There is no ......" Hua Qiao really didn't want to see that little flame of hope extinguished in the old woman's eyes.

She hurriedly said, "Mother-in-law, we are here to ask about Li Zhu's situation, so that we can find him faster." ”

The old woman nodded and said, "My son Li Zhu, I went out to the warehouse that morning as usual, they were on duty at the hour, there was nothing abnormal." Later, when he did not come back when the hour had passed, I went to the storehouse to look for him, but they said that he would go back as soon as the hour had passed...... He didn't come back...... It's been ten days...... Didn't come back......"

These are all in the records of the government.

Hua Qiao asked: "Mother-in-law, Li Zhu is a rabbit, and he is twenty-four years old this year, why haven't he married yet?" ”

Ahem...... Lin Longfeng, who was twenty-four years old in the back, pressed his fist against his mouth, and his throat itched. We are single by virtue of our strength, can we not ask that?

This question really can't be asked, when she asked, Li Zhu's old mother began to pour bitter water non-stop:

"My life is hard, I ordered a girl from a family before, but I didn't get married yet, and I died of a serious illness. In January this year, I went to the temple to ask for a signature, and when I came back, I got engaged, and discussed getting together some dowry, and then I gave them a happy event, but I didn't know that my pillar was gone......"

"Asking for a signature? So smart! I don't know which treasure temple I asked for the sign? ”

"Linggu Temple, there is a Yuantong monk in Linggu Temple, and he has the most effective ...... to sign"

If it was really related to Linggu Temple, the old woman said that it didn't matter too much, and Hua Qiao turned sideways and exchanged a look with Hu Yanjin.

"Pillars...... Mother is waiting for you at home......"

Their carriage had gone a long way, and they heard the old woman crying at the door. The three of them were silent, maybe digging out the truth is not what everyone needs, so with a glimmer of hope, it may be the best for this old woman.

"Li Zhu is the farthest, back to the vicinity of the bell tower, there is a twelve-year-old child, who was lost there. So, this one is the one that spreads the most. Wan San came back and said that everyone here is spreading that the child Qin Lang was dragged in by the god of Zhong to sacrifice the bell. ”

"Bells? Why him? Doesn't his family question it? Hua Qiao faintly felt that although this Qin Lang was young, he would definitely be related to Linggu Temple.

"Oh, I've said everything I can say, the child is not sensible, and now that he has been punished, we don't blame ......anyone" Qin Lang's father was a little impatient, because his mother-in-law had been crying in the back room, and he was a little upset when he heard it.

"I'll blame you! Master Yuantong said, let you lock the gold lock for him, you are reluctant to pay the money, now that the child is gone, who don't blame you? Qin Lang's mother rushed to the door of the room and shouted at him.

There is no need to ask for any more reasons, anyway, they used the child's eight characters to solve the sign. Hua Qiao didn't know whether she was worried or happy, and sighed secretly.

After coming out of the bell tower and passing the drum tower, they did not walk, but walked all the way to the fish market street. From far to near, they soon left the homes of the nine missing people aside.

Coming out of Wang Bao's house, it was already sunset.

"Let's go, after listening to the sad story of the day, my brother will take you two to open your eyes. It's not far from your house, just by the Qinhuai River in the back. ”

"Yes, yes! I heard that the Qinhuai River is the most beautiful and fragrant, there must be a lot of delicious food! Hua Qiao said happily.

"I thought that the one who wanted to go to Shili Qinhuai would be Huyan, this kid, but I didn't expect that you, a tomboy, would be so happy!" Lin Longfeng had bad intentions and squeezed his eyebrows at Hu Yanjin.

Hu Yanjin pretended not to see it, and only said to Hua Qiao: "I'll take you to see the place where Emperor Taizu put lanterns on the Lantern Festival, there is a painting boat, on it, there is good wine and tea, and there are singing and dancing Yaji, we can enjoy the night view of Qinhuai on the painting boat." ”

Lin Longfeng smiled secretly when he heard this: Okay...... This kid, I'm afraid that I'll take his girl to see something I shouldn't see, and I'm going to take her to my own boat! When you meet someone, don't complain about going back and kneeling in the corner.

The three of them were about to board the ship, when Lin Longfeng suddenly coughed, leaned into Hu Yanjin's ear and said something. Hu Yanjin was also dizzy when he heard this, looked at the buckwheat who had happily stepped on the board (sound: to board), glared at him viciously and scolded:

"You donkey! Why didn't you say it earlier! ”
