The time of the Holy Sacrifice is near.

The auspicious clouds that usually surround the Holy Mountain were deposited down, enveloping the entire Holy City, spreading to the surrounding areas farther away.

For the desert people who have lived here for generations, the rare coolness under the clouds, and the heavy rain that will be moistened like the nectar of the fairy rain soon after, are the gifts they most desire, from heaven.

The heavy dark clouds may indicate the success of the holy sacrifice, and the light of the sacred tree will be brighter and brighter than before.

The Holy City was already crowded, but there was still a constant stream of people entering every day, pushing the limits of what it could accommodate.

The only fly in the ointment is that many young children have disappeared inexplicably recently, which has caused panic in people's hearts, and all kinds of gossip are full of streets and alleys.

People with children in their homes have long since been grounded for their children, but this situation cannot be reduced.

The City Lord's Mansion of the Holy City has been troubled by those who have lost their children.

But this kind of trivial matter is not like the holy sacrifice that is coming.

Recently, there have been too many people in the Holy City, and they have been stretched thin to maintain daily order, and this kind of loss of children, they are just perfunctory, and they don't care.

But there are always people who are particularly concerned about this, and they have been staring at it closely and refusing to let go.

In the deepest hall of the Holy City City Lord's Mansion, a majestic and domineering middle-aged man stared at the young and lively girl who was about to leave in front of him, and shouted loudly, "You come back for me!" ”

The girl turned around, grimaced, and replied angrily, "No! Why don't you care about this? Hum! I'm going to bring these damned scoundrels to justice. ”

"Humph! You wait, my lord! ”

The middle-aged man frowned, looked at the girl in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh.

A long time ago, he wanted to take his daughter away from this place.

But he didn't expect that she herself would come back again, and even heard the discussion in the city, and saw the crying and crying of the parents who had lost their children, and he couldn't bear it, so he questioned him, the lord of the city, as soon as he came back.

The city lord of the Holy City came to a remote and simple thatched wooden house, knocked on the door and asked, "Uncle Wu...... Uncle Wu, are you there? ”

The wooden door didn't open, but an old hoarse voice came from inside, and said coldly and indifferently: "Lord City, is there something wrong?" ”

The Holy City City Lord didn't care, and said, "Is Uncle Wu still angry with me? ”

Uncle Wu in the wooden house didn't have much respect for him, and replied, "I don't dare! Lord of the Holy City. ”

"Tell me what is the matter! It's nothing, and you can't think of me, an old ghost. ”

The Holy City City Lord, a little embarrassed, said, "Where." It's just that I've been too busy lately, and I forgot to say hello to your old man for a while. ”

Wu Bo seemed to be displeased, and said impatiently: "Tell me directly, who are these polite words for!" I don't believe it. ”

The city lord of the Holy City was no longer polite, and said directly: "Xiao Yuyan, when I came back today, I am tracking down the child who was lost in the city for no reason, I am afraid that she will be in danger, so I want to ask you to protect her safety." ”

Hearing this, Uncle Wu's tone was much softer, and he said: "Yuyan, I haven't seen you for a long time, this kid is much better than you." ”

"Naturally, I want to protect her thoroughly, and I agreed to this."

"However, I'm afraid that I don't know the weight of my hands, and I may be able to slaughter people if I am not careful."

The city lord of the Holy City, who changed his previous peace, said in a cold voice: "Whoever dares to hurt my daughter will be killed." ”

"What if it's the birdmen on the mountain?"

The city lord of the Holy City, his face did not change, and replied, "That's what it was. ”

Hearing this, Uncle Wu seemed to be a lot happier, and said with a smile: "Haha...... Haha......, I really didn't misread you! ”

"Don't worry, as long as the old man and I still have a breath, I will never let people hurt Xiaoyu and lose a single hair!"

When the Holy City City Lord heard this, he was relieved and hurriedly thanked him, but was driven away by Uncle Wu.

The city lord's surname is Mo, and his daughter's name is Mo Yuyan.

At this time, she came to a family in the city, the same family that had lost her child not long ago.

There was no one in the house, so they all went out to look for it.

She pounced, asked the neighbors left and right, and rushed to Tao Yuju.

The lost child was none other than Ah Fei.

At this time, it was already night, Tao Yuju was inside, and Ah Fei's parents were crying endlessly, causing a lot of people to watch, pointing at Tao Yuju's boss and gossiping.

Tao Yuju's boss, at this time, his face was like earth, and his left hand touching the money trembled slightly, wondering whether to give some money and calm things down.

But when he turned his head and thought about it, his family lost his son, what did it matter to him, why did he ask him to pay this money?

Just when Tao Yuju's boss was still entangled, the two brothers Ye Bingyue and Berwen, who rushed to hear the news, happened to meet Mo Yuyan head-on.

Mo Yuyan and Ye Bingyue glanced at each other, not caring about them, and at the same time looked at Ah Fei's parents and Tao Yuju's boss.

In front of the counter, Ah Fei's mother was crying hoarsely, and said, "Quickly return my son Ah Fei to me......"

"My son Ah Fei never returns late, I came to work with you early this morning, and I haven't come back yet, did you collude with those bandits and sell my son to them."

While accusing the pale boss Tao Yuju in front of the counter, he made a gesture to pounce on him, trying to pull him out.

Tao Yuju's boss couldn't help it, and retorted angrily: "Okay, you shrew, your family has lost your son, what do you care about me, and you have wronged good people indiscriminately." ”

"If I have anything to do with those bandits, why should you be fooling around here like this?"

He didn't say this to Ah Fei's mother, but to those onlookers.

Hearing what he said, the onlookers agreed one after another, thinking that it must be Ah Fei's mother, who was anxious to lose her son, so she didn't care about the nonsense.

At this time, there is a mainstream theory about these mysterious and missing children, that is, they were captured by those wandering sand thieves and used as coolies.

Another rumor is that they were secretly captured by the priests on the sacred mountain and fed to the sacred tree as fertilizer.

It's just that this statement is too absurd, and everyone just thinks that those bandits with ill intentions deliberately slander the rumors released by the Holy Mountain, and no one believes it.

Tao Yuju's boss, fed up with the onlookers and eyes, the long pain is better than the short pain, and finally made up his mind, and said in pain: "Ah Fei, he has also worked with me for a while, his salary has not yet been settled, there is some money here, so it should be my compensation for him!" No one wants this to happen, so mourn the two of you. ”

Ah Fei's parents, who took the money from the reluctant boss, were still sad and weeping, but they achieved their goal, and walked through the crowd lonely and left Tao Yuju.

At this time, everyone realized that they were afraid that the boss would not honestly calculate Ah Fei's salary, and they would come here to make a fuss, no matter what they should have, no matter what, they would be indispensable, and they could take more.

In the bustling streets, Ah Fei's parents have colorless faces, floating under their feet in the crowded crowd of people.

"Two uncles and aunts, please wait a minute!"

Mo Yuyan stopped in front of them and said, "I am the City Lord's Mansion...... City Guards...... ......, huh...... The one in charge of tracking down the matter. ”

"I want to know something specific about you."

Hearing this, Ah Fei's mother hugged her and began to cry again, saying, "You must help us...... we are Ah Fei's son, how can we live without him!" ”

Ah Fei's mother cried sincerely, her old face was full of wrinkles, old tears, full of bitterness, and how to fake the grief after the loss of her son.

Where had Mo Yuyan experienced this kind of battle, although he was reluctant to be approached, he was embarrassed to push away, so he had to stand in place in embarrassment.

Fortunately, Ah Fei's father, although his face was sad, was still calm, pulled away from his wife and comforted her.

looked up at Mo Yuyan and said, "Little girl, it's not that I don't say it, although we also want Ah Fei to come back, but this matter is ......, alas, ......, let your family go to the adults to deal with it!" ”

"It's too dangerous for a girl of yours."

Ah Fei's mother wanted to say something, but was pulled away by her husband.

left in a hurry, leaving Mo Yuyan alone in place.

The teacher was unfavorable, and I didn't get any news.

But Mo Yuyan is not stupid, she can be regarded as having found a clue, Ah Fei's parents must know something, and they don't want to tell her.

Ah Fei's parents didn't leave for long, and they were stopped again, and this time it was Ye Bingyue, Berwyn, and Berwyn who stopped them.

Ye Bingyue spoke: "We are Ah Fei's friends in Tao Yuju, and we want to help you find Ah Fei's whereabouts together. ”

Ah Fei's father didn't wait for his wife to speak this time, and directly refused: "Thank you very much, but this is our own business, so I won't trouble you!" ”

After saying that, he pulled his wife away, without giving Ye Bingyue and them a chance to speak again.
