Chapter 40: Missing and Confused
Li Zhong forcibly suppressed his anger! I still can't bear to kick this girl out! After all, several lives are involved! Even if they are exposed on the spot, what can be salvaged for the things that have already been set up? You can only lose the lives of a few innocent people!
Now it's time to find the bride Wen Ying first!
Li Zhong didn't go out again to thank the people who came to eat and drink! Instead, he went straight to the study and sent someone to quietly call Wen Chong.
"What? Is this bride fake? What about Ying'er!? Wen Chong stood up from his chair in surprise, stared at Li Zhong with wide eyes and asked!
"Shh~~ Quietly, don't let others know about it first, so as not to spread to the Wenfu, after all, my uncle's body has not healed yet! And the grandmother is very old! Li Zhong frowned, very helplessly instructed.
"Is this something that can be hidden? How are you going to go back tomorrow? Ying'er's life and death are still unknown! Can it be quiet? No, I'll go and grab the guy surnamed Xu and ask what happened! After Wen Chongqi finished speaking, he walked out!
"Did it help you to bring him in? Will he say? Can he speak? ”
"You can't just eat dumb in vain! The point is, where is Ying'er now? ”
"That's why I came to you for advice, and the woman said that when she drew her carriage there, she seemed to hear the sound of a carriage speeding by, accompanied by a woman's cry for help..."
"Then this means that the carriage in the past is Ying'er's carriage?"
Li Zhong nodded
"Damn! It was all premeditated, and the horse could not have been frightened suddenly! Wen Chongqi gritted his teeth! Clench your fists!
"Now if I go out, I will attract attention, so you hurry back to the house, bring a few more family members, and go to find Ying'er on the way, I will also send someone to go there later, be sure to find Ying'er!" I'll find a way to go after I'm done toasting."
"What kind of toast! When is this all gone! Wen Chong looked at Li Zhong with some dissatisfaction.
"Let's not startle the snake first, lest the villains attack in advance!"
"Yes, okay, I'll go look for it, and you should pay more attention to yourself! If you can't find my sister, don't think about it! Wen Chong left in a hurry after speaking!
"Ying'er, what's wrong with you?" After Wen Chong went out, Li Zhong sighed very uncomfortably!
The clenched fist knocked on the table, and his expression was very uncomfortable!
Li Zhong and Wen Chong followed the road where the carriage ran away...
"Follow the carriage print, don't miss every little detail, and look carefully," Li Zhong instructed everyone.
"Yes"
"Wen Chong, come and see" Li Zhong squatted on the side of the road and shouted, and after seeing Wen Chong coming, he asked:
"Is this the carriage that Ying'er rode in that day?"
"It's kind of like, though it's covered up in dust, but the hoof prints are like that of the red-maned horse," Wen Chong replied.
The two of them followed the unclear and irregular horseshoe print, and on the steep slope was the last foot of the horseshoe print!
"So..."
"Ying'er fell down the slope?" Wen Chong and Li Zhong asked with a pair of eyes!
"Let's go, go down and have a look"
......
The group quickly found the path to the bottom of the steep slope....
Under this not very high steep slope, there is no way to get down except for wild grass and gravel piles.
The people who came to look for it looked around anxiously and shouted:
"Ying'er, Ying'er..."
"Miss, Miss..."
"Young Lady Young Lady"
....
"Li Zhong..."Wen Chong shouted.
Li Zhong and a few others who were looking for them hurriedly leaned over.
"Is this the carriage Ying'er rode in that day?"
The weeds not far in front were covered with a red flower car canopy cloth, and the wooden frame of the car tent that had been broken by the collision was scattered around...
The group hurriedly rushed over, but there was only the canopy that had already fallen apart, and Wen Ying and the horse were nowhere to be seen...
"This time, Wen Bocheng was completely defeated by himself! Hahaha," Geng Shilang looked at the Ministry of Rites sitting in the center, and said a little evilly.
"Yes, I heard that not only did the condition not improve, but worsened!" Qu Yushi replied.
"Can it not be aggravated? The fake plague has escaped, and this beloved daughter has disappeared on the day of her wedding, isn't that more uncomfortable than getting the real plague?!? Xu Yushi squinted his eyes and was very proud!
"Haha~~" Several people laughed together!
"However, speaking of this Miss Wenjia... Why is it missing? The Ministry of Rites suddenly frowned and asked.
"I asked the house slave, and he did see the carriage fall before returning," Geng Shilang.
"I mean, wasn't the route startled at the time when the horse ran into a boulder and fell unconscious and then encountered a passing mountain bandit? How did you fall into that ditch? ”
"It's a little strange, the horse was running forward, but after hitting a boulder, it fell into a ditch that was not close!"
"The house slave is still there?" Xu Yushi asked.
"Don't worry, they are all henchmen, and they don't dare to make mistakes!" Geng Shilang.
"It's better to be clean," the Ministry of Rites Shangshu.
"Forgive him and don't dare!"
"That's good! So Gu'an County has said it? ”
"Xuzhou Mansion and Gu'an County have been contacted, just wait for the adults to say a word, and they will go into battle"
"The general means don't worry about it first, wait for the right opportunity to kill it with one blow"
"Haha, don't worry, people have to be a little sympathetic?" Xu Yushi glanced at the sitting and made a "joke".
"Hahaha~~"
Wen Ying was in the quiet deep valley, and after a month without any achievements.
One day, after Wen Ying got up, she found that this chic, mysterious and kind old man was gone, Wen Ying was anxious to look everywhere, but she didn't find the shadow of the old man...
Wen Ying sat in front of the thatched hut tiredly, looking helplessly at the clear sky... Baiyun is so leisurely... The sun is so dazzling... At this time, they are all covered with a layer of mystery...
What kind of place is this? Why does the weather feel different here than outside? These days, it's almost always sunny, moonlit and starry... Fortunately, there are no dark clouds rolling, thunder and lightning coming...
This quiet person during the day is quite passable, and he can't feel anything when he practices according to the method taught by this old master...
But when it comes to the evening, I feel that time is difficult! Hide in the house, close the door, light the pine oil lamp and don't dare to let it go out! Although the moon shines brightly, it's night! It's surprisingly quiet, it's surprisingly nervous!
Every night, Wen Ying almost lies by the window and looks outside, looking at the night sky and the ground for a while, her heart is always hanging, for fear that at any point in time, there will be some monster suddenly! You have to prevent it in advance! Or take shelter!
One night, two nights, three nights.... Wen Ying went from not closing her eyes all night to gradually getting used to natural rest...
