Chapter Eighty-Six: The Spiritual Fire Society
"Hahaha, Yu Ran, it seems that I am surprised to see you, but Brother Hengzhi is really, why shouldn't I tell you in front of you?" Ye Junjun was suddenly confused.
After Ye Junjun was brainwashed by "Rotten and Rotten", in her opinion, if there is love in her heart, she should boldly say it.
The corners of Yao Yuran's mouth rose, and he smiled: "Cough cough, cough, maybe he is worried that I will invite him to eat a meal of fried chestnuts with sugar." ”
She touched her nose in embarrassment, only blaming herself for being too fierce usually, causing Zhao Hengzhidu to retreat from her, not to mention that he could say anything sweet to her, in the final analysis, she also had part of the reason. The relationship between her and Zhao Hengzhi is too delicate, and Yao Yuran doesn't want to break this status quo.
The night is quietly coming, today is the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, and the moon tonight is a little rounder than usual, and the bright moonlight is sprinkled with silver light on the ground.
Yao Yuran was sitting on the stone chair in the courtyard, admiring the moon alone, Zhao Hengzhi went to bed earlier than her, the snoring was like thunder, and the noise made Yao Yuran unable to sleep, so he ran outside to admire the moon.
"Rustle!" A cold wind blew, and only the shadows of the trees shook a few times. When Yao Yuran raised his head, he happened to see the two darkguard brothers who looked like a hairie in the vegetable garden during the day.
"Wow, why are you here?" Yao Yuran's eyes widened in surprise, fortunately she had already seen them, and she didn't even make a move, and those who didn't know thought that they were black and white impermanence to ask for their lives.
Jiang Tao, who was dressed in blue, took a step forward and said with a solemn expression: "Employer, we are here to report the recent whereabouts of Wang Fang and the others. ”
"Oh-" Yao Yuran nodded suddenly in realization, these two people are really quite conscious, it seems that the cold fireworks that Chu Xiao gave her are not needed for the time being.
"Employer, I am responsible for tracking Wang Zhongsheng, Wang Zhongsheng went to Zuixianglou early this morning, and Liu Hong turned the clouds and rain, and then went to his casino Xingrong Fang, gambled, and spent the rest of the time teasing his big fat parrot in his mansion." Jiang Tao made a serious report, his expression was quite serious, and there was no emotional color at all.
Yao Yuran bowed slightly, thinking about it, this Wang Zhongsheng had just killed his own maid, and it was impossible for him to do anything illegal and criminal at such a time.
"Employer, I am in charge of tracking Fang Lianqing, I found that Fang Lianqing went to the casino like Wang Zhongsheng, and also found that he went to a place called Lingyin Temple, where he gathered with other people, as if their organization was called the 'Spirit Fire Society', in the name of the gods, let the people of Micheng donate incense money, and recently launched an activity of 'sacrificing the river'......"
At this time, Jiang Huai also truthfully reported the news from his investigation to Yao Yuran.
"The Spiritual Fire Society??? I think it's a crooked way of swaggering and deception, and this 'sacrificial river', do you know what tricks they want to do? Yao Yuran frowned.
Jiang Huai pondered for a moment, carefully recalling what he had heard in Lingyin Temple, and then he patted his head and said, "They seem to want the people of Micheng to hand over the children from six to fifteen years old in their families and contribute them to Hebo. ”
"Huh? Catching a child? What do they want these children to do? Yao Yuran was even more puzzling, besides, this kind of deceptive trick, could anyone really be fooled?
"I don't know about this, because it took two days for the 'festival to be held', and I don't know what they will do for the time being." Jiang Huai said lightly.
Yao Yuran always felt that these things must not be so simple, could that Linghuo be a human trafficking organization? Specializing in child trafficking? She recalls that in the 21st century, she often heard from her neighbors that there would be some human traffickers in the village who gave candy, and as long as the children ate their candy, they would obediently follow the traffickers, and they would take the children's organs and sell them.
Yao Yuran thought about it carefully, and was extremely afraid, for fear that those children would fall into the clutches of the Spirit Fire Society.
"Lady......" At this time, Yao Yuran heard a confused voice. It turned out that Zhao Hengzhi was halfway through his sleep and found that Yao Yuran was gone, so he ran out of the room to look for her.
"You guys go quickly." Yao Yuran hurriedly shouted to Jiang Huai and Jiang Tao. The two quickly turned around and evacuated.
But they were still a step late, and Zhao Hengzhi still saw the two of them. Zhao Hengzhi's face changed greatly, and he felt that Yao Yuran seemed to have something to hide from him and not let him know.
This kind of feeling of being kept in the dark was not pleasant, Zhao Hengzhi strode forward, walked up to Yao Yuran, and grabbed Yao Yuran's wrist suddenly.
"Who are those two people? Why are you talking to them? Zhao Hengzhi had questions one by one.
His eyes were so sharp, like two cold blades, when it came to this, Yao Yuran also expected that he couldn't hide it from Zhao Hengzhi at all.
Yao Yuran smiled faintly and said, "Husband Junjun, don't get excited, those people are just the secret guards I hired for Chu Xiao, and they are helping me track down Wang Fang's two big pests." ”
"Then why did you hide from me and do these things yourself?" Zhao Hengzhi felt a sense of frustration, just because Yao Yuran did not completely take off his guard against him.
"I'm worried that your life will be in danger. The killers who have come in recent days are all coming towards you, and their goal is to kill you, so naturally I can't let you cause you any more trouble......" Yao Yuran explained with all his might.
It's not that she can't believe Zhao Hengzhi, but she thinks too much, she is not only worried that Zhao Hengzhi's life will be in danger because of this, but also afraid that he will startle the snake.
"Oh-" Zhao Hengzhi was skeptical, but he held Yao Yuran's hand tightly, "Lady, promise me, no matter what happens, you have to tell me." I hope there are no secrets between the two of us and I can do my part. ”
Zhao Hengzhi's eyes revealed a trace of firmness, he didn't want to be treated as an embroidered pillow anymore, he wanted to prove that he was also useful.
Yao Yuran looked at him with his deep eyes, she seemed to understand Zhao Hengzhi's mood in a trance, if she was Zhao Hengzhi, she would definitely hope that she could help something, instead of staying out of the matter.
"Husband, that's good, I'll tell you the information I just got." A soft light appeared in Yao Yuran's eyes, and she spoke again: "Recently, Fang Lianqing and other local snakes have set up a cult organization called the 'Spirit Fire Society' in the Lingyin Temple, and they actually asked the people to hand over their young children under the guise of 'sacrificing to the big river'. ”
"Huh? Spiritual Fire Society? I haven't really heard of that. Zhao Hengzhi was shocked. He took the officials to patrol the streets on weekdays, and Micheng was quiet and peaceful on the surface, and he couldn't see anything at all.
He thought that he had deterred these local snakes, but he didn't expect that they were doing these shady things behind their backs.
"You, patrolling the streets like this, they naturally don't dare to expose their evil deeds, and they can only do it secretly in corners you don't know." Yao Yuran analyzed.
If it weren't for the information provided by Jiang Huai and Jiang Tao, she would not have been able to grasp this information.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's just take someone to serve the spiritual fire to a pot!" Zhao Hengzhi said angrily.
"No, there is no evidence at the moment, and if you go, you will only startle the snake, if you can find evidence, it will be more appropriate to catch it all." Yao Yuran maintained his usual composure and calmness.
"Okay, lady, I will send someone to keep an eye on it to prevent the murder from happening." Zhao Hengzhi had no choice but to agree, gritted his teeth and chose not to bear it, and was determined to collect information in secret.
At this time, a gust of wind blew, Yao Yuran shivered, and hugged his arms tightly. Seeing this, Zhao Hengzhi hurriedly took off his robe and draped it on Yao Yuran's body.
A pair of eyes as deep as ink, looking at the person in front of her, Zhao Hengzhi said to her: "Lady, it's cold at night, let's go into the house quickly." ”
"Hmm." Yao Yuran's nose was sour, she only felt that her heart was warm, it was rare that Zhao Hengzhi could pity the jade, she felt that Zhao Hengzhi was indeed very different from before, although the relationship between the two people was good and bad, it was much better than before.
Zhao Hengzhi and Yao Yuran walked into the room one after another, the two took off their clothes and lay quietly on the bed, although they shared the same bed, Zhao Hengzhi never did anything out of the ordinary to Yao Yuran.
Zhao Hengzhi hoped that when Yao Yuran really accepted him and really liked him, he would dare to break that relationship with her.
The next day, the sun rose as usual.
In this sesame-sized rice city, the people have already started a new day's work.
"Lady, I'm out!" Zhao Hengzhi was in good spirits, after last night, because he had some intimate words with Yao Yuran, he was full of energy today, and he was full of fighting spirit in everything he did.
"Husband, be careful all the way!" Yao Yuran's beautiful eyes were longing, and he rarely showed a warm smile like a spring breeze to Zhao Hengzhi.
"Hey, hey, hey." Zhao Hengzhi smirked a few times, and finally took a big stride and walked out of the yamen with his head held high.
Zhao Hengzhi was dressed extremely low-key today, and he only wore a coarse green coat. And he ordered Lu Tian and Lu Hai to also wear the coarse cloth shirts worn by ordinary people, as simple as they were, as simple as they were.
Yao Yuran saw that Zhao Hengzhi was a little strange today, and wondered in his heart, could this Zhao Hengzhi want to go behind her back to see some fox spirit? Yao Yuran decided to disguise herself as a man and follow Zhao Hengzhi to see what was going on.
On the streets of Micheng, Lu Tian and Lu Hai followed in the footsteps of Zhao Hengzhi. Yao Yuran hid in the shadows and followed closely.
The streets of Micheng are now a little more lively than before, and some small traders and vendors are also setting up stalls on the roadside, selling vegetables and fruits, and selling rouge and gouache...... Although the sparrow is small, it is also full of organs.
"My lord, where are we going today?" Lu Tian touched his bright forehead, a little puzzled.
Zhao Hengzhi hooked his lips and smiled, and said, "Let's go to Lingyin Temple." ”
