Gu Dongqing was also stunned, and he hesitated a little and said, "He came back with you in the afternoon, as if he hadn't been out of the kitchen, so I didn't care." ”

Gu Nansang was stunned, and she asked, "Have you seen it anywhere else?" ”

"I took a look in the backyard, and I also looked for the firewood house, but I didn't." Gu Dongqing also noticed that things were not normal, and he lowered his voice: "Look again, will it be nearby?" Don't alarm your mother yet. ”

Gu Nansang nodded: "Brother, you go cook some noodles first, let Beihuai and Niang eat first, and then I'll look around." ”

Gu Dongqing hesitated slightly: "It's so late, it's still me ......"

"I know better where he goes on weekdays, brother, I'm nearby, I won't go far, if there is something, I will come back and call you."

When she said this, Gu Dongqing had no choice but to nod her head in agreement, and said that she must tell him something, and went to the kitchen.

Gu Nansang frowned.

This cheap cousin, although he seems a little out of tune in private, is so well-behaved in front of Xu's family, and he does not shirk the chores at home, and even completes it well. No matter how you look at it, you don't look like a reckless person, you will say hello wherever you go out, what's going on today?

She thoughtfully went back to her room, and it was cold at night, and she was going to take a coat and go out to look for it.

I lit the lamp on the table, but suddenly I saw a note on the dresser by the window.

Cousin, I have an important object left halfway through, go back and look for it, don't worry.

This word is written without saying that the dragon and the phoenix dance, and the last word of worry is even more long arc, which looks extremely hurried and hasty.

But how could this note be in her room?

Gu Nansang looked at the open window, then looked at the rising roses that were blooming under the window, and when he took the lamp, it happened that a shoe was printed in the mud.

It seems to be coming through the back door.

He doesn't want people to know he's out the door?

But this contradicts the note on the table.

Gu Nansang was full of contradictions in his heart, so he casually put on his coat and went out through the back door.

Bypassing the big tree behind the door, I walked towards the entrance of the village, and happened to meet Wang Juanzi halfway.

"Nansang?" Wang Juanzi also saw her, and asked in surprise: "It's dark, where are you going?" ”

Gu Nansang saw the things in her hand and knew that she was here to send vegetables and fruits to her family, so she smiled and said, "I'll eliminate my food, walk around, and I'll go back in a while." ”

"Then you take the bitter gourd and kidney beans back by the way, my mother asked me to go, there is something to do at home." Wang Juanzi handed it to her.

Gu Nansang had no choice but to catch it, and she asked casually: "Juanzi, have you seen anyone along the way?" ”

Wang Juanzi shook her head: "People didn't see it, but they saw a big wild cat halfway." It was dark and walked silently, until it jumped up the tree and down again, and ran towards the back hill, that I heard a faint movement, which startled me. ”

She paused, patted her heart, and advised, "Then remember to take it back, I have to go, it's not good if it's late." ”

"Okay, you go slowly, thank you for my mother."

Gu Nansang rolled his eyes, his mind moved, he took the vegetable basket back to his house, put it at the back door, turned around and ran in the other direction.

That's the direction of the back mountain.

Gu Nansang didn't know at first, but Gu Dongqing told her later, the back mountain seems to be desolate, but there is a small road that leads directly to the official road, and from there to the south, it is Half Moon Mountain.

She had a suspicion in her heart, and she went through the recent events from her mind, and always felt that she had touched some edge, but she just couldn't connect them.

"System, are you awake?" She climbed the hill along the path as she tried to wake up the system.

"I'm here." The system was rarely awake and responded.

"How long will it take me to get up the mountain from here?"

"Two quarters of an hour."

Fortunately, the mountain is not very high, and it takes 30 minutes to reach the top.

Gu Nansang walked very slowly, and with the help of the subtle moonlight, he could identify the traces on the road.

Because it didn't rain, the road was muddy, but there were no footprints.

She watched for a long time, and finally stopped in front of a rock.

The stone was about the size of a fist, and underneath it was a circle of new black mud, which was clearly freshly lifted. Next to the new mud is a very shallow shoe print with undulating waves at the bottom.

Gu Nansang's eyes instantly turned cold.

Most of the shoes of the farmers are cloth shoes and straw sandals, many of which are made by the women of the family, and some are bought at the market. Zhou Qingxiao came to Gu's house since he came, because he and Gu Dong's youth were similar in age and size, the clothes of the two were worn together, but the shoes, his feet were longer than Gu Dongqing's, and he couldn't wear them.

Although Gu Nansang didn't treat him on the surface, he never treated him harshly, and the shoes he wore on his feet were all bought by Gu Nansang from Anping City.

Recently, he always followed Xu Shi to farm in a field on the hillside, and Gu Nansang was worried that he had studied before and had never done farm work, so he was afraid that he would fall. Therefore, I deliberately put a thin grass stalk into the bottom of the shoe and made it wavy to prevent slipping.

It can be said that in the entire lotus village, there is only one pair of shoes.

Gu Nansang stood up, turned around and rushed towards his house.

It just so happened that Gu Dongqing was standing at the door and waiting for a long time, his face was anxious, his brows were tightly locked, and the moment he saw Gu Nansang, he breathed a sigh of relief: "You're finally back, I'm going out to find you." ”

"Brother, Fengzhu went to Half Moon Mountain." Gu Nansang was concise and to the point, and said with a key point: "I think he seems to be in a hurry, otherwise he wouldn't have gone out so late, should we go to him?" ”

Gu Dongqing nodded without hesitation: "Of course I have to find it." Since Fengzhu has come to the Gu family, he is one of us, even if he has something unspeakable and inconvenient to say, we can't stand idly by. ”

He turned around and entered the room, and took out a thin dagger and put it in his arms, which Mu Yao gave him for self-defense.

"Nansang, you just wait for me at home."

Gu Nansang shook his head: "I'll go with you, so I can take care of it, and I also know where Fengzhu went during the temple fair." ”

"Okay." Gu Dongqing nodded, without further ado, it was not good to delay, the brother and sister followed the back mountain and headed towards Half Moon Mountain.

An hour later, both of them were out of breath and finally walked to the Half Moon Mountain.

The location where they were was was the place where Gu Nansang set up a stall to sell oden that day, next to it was a big tree, and under the tree was a big rock. On that day, the temple fair was full of people and lively, but tonight it was quiet, only the insects chirped, and the night breeze was cold.

"Nansang, you are waiting for my brother here, you are tired all the way." Gu Dongqing looked at her sister's small body and was a little worried.

"No need." Gu Nansang gritted her teeth to support, she walked in a hurry this way, in order not to drag down Gu Dongqing's footsteps, she didn't say a word, and now when she stopped, she found that the soles of her feet hurt, her back was already wet with sweat, and even her knees were a little trembling.

Walking at high intensity for two hours in a row, and being a nine-year-old again, this is no joke.

"I went to the Half Moon Nunnery in front to look for it, there are all nuns, there must be people on duty at night, and after half an hour, whether we find anyone or not, we are all waiting under the tree."

She made sense, Gu Dongqing nodded, agreed, turned around and walked to a small alley next to her.

Gu Nansang reluctantly breathed a sigh of relief and knocked on the door of the Half Moon Nunnery.

She also had a little drum in her heart, after all, it was the middle of the night, and Zhou Qingxiao was a man, even if he came, the nunnery might not let him in. And Gu Nansang is even more difficult to win people's trust, so he can only try hard.

But after knocking for a while, at intervals several times, no one came to open the door.

The night wind gusted, cold and cold, blowing Gu Nansang's sweaty back, bringing a cold shiver.

It wasn't until this moment that she realized that she was really bolder.

“…… Anyone? She asked hesitantly.

The system was awake all the way, and it reminded, "The door is unlocked, you can go in and have a look." ”

Gu Nansang was sure and gently pushed open the side door.

There really isn't anybody.

The main hall dedicated to Guanyin Bodhisattva was pitch black, there was no sound in the meditation room, not even the lamp leading to the main store, only the unburned paper money in the stove, and the sparkling sparks loomed.

Gu Nansang swallowed her saliva, forcibly suppressed the apprehension in her heart, lightly bypassed the copper tripod with incense, and passed by the door of the cave where Master Huijing pulled her into that day, ready to go to the backyard to have a look.

She was pressed against the wall, her ears pricked up, and her eyes were rolling like a thief.

Suddenly, a strong arm reached out from the diagonal ground, and violently covered her mouth and pulled her into the bushes in the corner!

Gu Nansang was so frightened that his eyes widened, and his feet began to struggle and swing.

"Shhhhh ”

Xu Fengzhu!

Gu Nansang's heart fell to the ground, and after thinking about it, he became angry again, and was about to question him, but found that he hadn't let go of himself yet, so he couldn't help but be angry and stomped on his upper.

Zhou Qingxiao was in pain, but he still didn't let go of her.

"Fence it all up for me!" Suddenly, there was a shout outside.

In a short time, the outer courtyard was brightly lit, and the officers and soldiers ran with torches, illuminating the silent nunnery.

But the strange thing is that there was no response in the nunnery for such a big movement, not even a little nun on night duty.

Gu Nansang felt that this voice was familiar, and when he thought about it carefully, he found that the officers and soldiers who shouted just now were not the leaders of the officers and soldiers who led the troops to search the Half Moon Nunnery at the temple fair last time?

Soon, the officers and soldiers ran over with torches, and the firelight flashed, stabbing Gu Nansang subconsciously blinking, and then hearing the officers and soldiers shouting: "The inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, as well as the residence inside, don't let it go!" ”

Near the main hall was his angry shout: "I am ordered by the prefect to come to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Netherworld Sect with a detention token, you wait for the quick out, and you will be arrested, otherwise don't blame me for correcting the Fa on the spot!" ”

Gu Nansang was confused.

Last time, it was said that there were kidnappers and robbers, why did it only take a few days to become a remnant of the Netherworld?

But Zhou Qingxiao didn't give her a chance to look at it anymore, taking advantage of the efforts of the officers and soldiers to run over, he picked up Gu Nansang, bent on his waist, his steps were brisk like a gust of wind, bypassing the cave door, skillfully finding a side door, opening the door and closing it gently, without making a sound during the whole process.

"......" Gu Nansang seriously suspected that he was here to be a thief.

This will make her mouth free, but she has too many doubts in her heart, and she doesn't know how to speak.

It wasn't until Zhou Qingxiao put her on the ground that she came back to her senses and stared at Zhou Qingxiao with an unkind gaze.

This happened to be under the tree where Gu Nansang and Gu Dongqing had made an appointment to meet, she was afraid of alarming the officers and soldiers, so she grabbed Zhou Qingxiao's neckline, forcibly pulled him to squat under the big stone, and asked coldly: "What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" I warn you, whether you have regained your memory or have not lost your memory at all, leave my house as soon as you return! ”

When something like this happened tonight, Gu Nansang could no longer believe the young man in front of him who looked like a peach blossom.

Zhou Qingxiao's expression changed from calm at the beginning to surprise, and then his clear eyes were stained with mist, his hand holding Gu Nansang trembled slightly, and the corners of his eyes were ruddy, as if he was about to cry out in the next moment.

"Cousin ......"

"I'm not your cousin!" Gu Nansang glared.

Zhou Qingxiao sniffed, sad and aggrieved: "Nansang, I'm here to find something, it's not as ...... you think."

Gu Nansang didn't buy it: "Did I say I thought something?" Guilty! I think you're ......"

Before she finished speaking, there was suddenly a palm as white as jade in front of her, and in the palm of her hand, a purple-red stone emitted a subtle light in the moonlight.

The corners of Zhou Qingxiao's eyes were moist, and his fawn-like eyes were full of sincerity and sadness: "This is the peace charm you gave me, I haven't found it for a long time, but today I suddenly remembered that maybe it fell in the Half Moon Nunnery, and I was worried that others would pick it up, so I rushed over overnight...... I'm sorry, I didn't know you were so worried about me, you walked so far, did your feet hurt? ”

"......" Gu Nansang looked at the small stone that he spent two pennies and bought perfunctory for him, only to feel that his throat was suddenly choked by something, he couldn't swallow it, he couldn't spit it out, and it was as uncomfortable as being pinched.

She glared at Zhou Qingxiao viciously.

Zhou Qingxiao returned his aggrieved gaze.

Half a day.

Gu Nansang Huoran got up, just in time to see Gu Dongqing walking towards this side, she didn't speak, turned around and walked down the mountain. One step at a time, extremely hard, it is almost necessary to step on the stone pavement.

Zhou Qingxiao greeted him, said something to Gu Dongqing, and soon chased after Gu Nansang.

Gu Nansang had already asked the system if there was any other way down the mountain, regardless of the pain in his feet, he walked like a fly and ran fast.

She was now full of regret.

You shouldn't care about the life or death of this irrelevant person, you shouldn't have found him in the middle of the night, and you shouldn't believe his obvious lies!

Although her body is only nine years old, her soul is already running for three, and she is already an adult in the real society, how can she still be deceived by this little child?!

The more Gu Nansang thought about it, the more angry he became, and he walked around the alley, and he couldn't even listen to the system's instructions for directions.

Finally, my brain hurt, and I was gloriously beaten with a stick.

"Boss, what should I do about this?" Someone asked in a gruff voice.

"I said you're a nerd! Why do you stun a little kid? The dress is still so shabby, there is no money at first glance, bad luck! The man who spoke earlier received a slap on the head, and the man known as the boss said, "Look at what, don't get out of here!" ”

The footsteps of the two were far away.

The cold moon is like frost, and the night breeze is cold.

I don't know how long it took, Gu Nansang rubbed the back of his aching head and stood up.

“…… Damn, what's this called, unlucky to get up and drink cold water and stuff your teeth! She was silent.

The system was quite speechless: "I told you not to go into this alley......"

Gu Nansang just wanted to ask her how long she had been unconscious, when she suddenly heard a female voice: "You hurry down the mountain now, even if the government has taken the arrest warrant, but it can't come up with real evidence, and we have to release our people back." If you go, you're in a trap! ”

Another said, "I know, and I'm gone." Hmph, these wine bags and rice bags are moving fast today! ”

The person before was a little worried, she sighed, and said in a low voice: "Feng Jiao, don't be anxious, I have been planning for a long time, and now I have just a little eyebrows, and I have been discovered and used by someone with a heart, which is really not good." This matter is not urgent, and it needs to be slowly figured out in order to pave the way for the birth of the master. ”

Gu Nansang's eyes widened suddenly, his face full of disbelief.

Feng Jiao?

The widow in the village who attracts bees and butterflies?!

However, Feng Jiao's next sentence made her jaw drop even more.

"Huijing, then I'll leave this place to you, I'll go down the mountain from the secret passage."

…… it!

Isn't it so exciting?

It was actually the person who gave Youlian to Gu Nansang in the Half Moon Nunnery, Master Huijing!
