Edamame exerted his strength to feed, turned around and ran. However, how can a seven or eight-year-old child outrun the wolves. A wolf the size of a calf was the first to chase after Edamame, opened its bloody mouth, and bit down on Edamame's neck.

"Ahh Edamame tripped over something at his feet, fell to the ground with a snap, and was turned over a few times by inertia with a grunt, although he fell dizzy, he actually escaped the wolf's blood.

However, when Edamame sat up in a daze, he found himself surrounded by a pack of wolves with teeth and drool.

"Woooooo

Sou!

A flash of white light flashed, and a figure appeared in front of Edamame. This figure is slender and tall, and it should be the same person as Zhao Wu on the night of his death.

When the wolves saw this man, they all stood up their hair, opened their bloody mouths, and let out a low roar, especially the wolf the size of a calf in the lead, who was scratching the ground with one paw, looking eager to try.

"Looking for death?" Seeing the reaction of the wolf, the man turned his left hand behind his back, stretched out his mouth with the thumb and index finger of his right hand together, and muttered a few words, a blue light flashed, and a sword shining with cyan light appeared in front of the man's eyes.

When the head wolf saw this sword, his claws that kept scratching stopped, his brows furrowed, and his eyes showed a puzzled expression. Could it be that this wolf has understood human nature and is thinking about it?

After a few moments, the wolf howled in both directions, and when the wolves heard the howl, two wolves on each side rushed out of the pack and pounced on the incoming man.

"Temptation? Hum! The man waved his right hand, and the sword in front of him immediately moved, drawing a cyan halo, and the four wolves that jumped into the air froze, and they were all cut into two pieces in an instant. The wolves stopped growling and looked in horror at the four corpses on the ground.

Whew! The wolf howled at the man, as if in protest against the man. "Evil deeds!" This man could understand the language of the beast, and said to the wolf. The head wolf showed a puzzled expression again, hesitated for a moment, then shook his head at the wolves around him, and turned to leave. The wolves immediately followed the head wolf and disappeared into the grass.

"Let's go!" The man looked down at Edamame, and when he said that, he turned and left. Edamame hurriedly stood up and followed closely behind him.

Not long after the two left, a red figure flashed in the grass.

………

Li You sat in the study, although his eyes were on the file, his mind was not on it at all.

It's been a whole day, and Wang Miao and the officials haven't come back yet, which means they haven't been able to find edamame.

Damn it! Abominable murderer! If you dare to attack a child of seven or eight years old, this official will definitely make you taste the torture! Li You cursed secretly.

Squeak!

The door of the study was pushed open, and Wang Miao walked in from the outside.

"Childe!" Wang Miao clasped his fist and saluted Li You, who immediately stood up from his seat. "Found it?"

"Nope." Wang Miao shook his head. "According to the neighbors, I saw edamame playing at the door the afternoon before yesterday, but I couldn't see anyone in a blink of an eye." Hearing this, Li You suddenly felt bad in his heart, but he still held on to a glimmer of hope. "But anyone else saw his traces?"

"Yes!" Wang Miao nodded affirmatively. "Someone saw a child running all the way north, and said that the child was nervous and seemed to be chasing something, but no one saw what was ahead."

Could it be that it is the work of demons again? Thinking of what Zhao Feng said, in combination with what happened to Edamame, Li You affirmed that there must be demons and evil in this, but the Pig Divine Beast was sure that Zhao Wu was not killed by demons, so this demon was most likely instructed by humans. "After that?" Li You sorted out his thoughts a little and continued to ask.

"I ran north in the direction people said I had gone about thirty miles, and found nothing but four dead wolves." Wang Miao continued.

"Dead wolf? How did he die? Li You asked casually. The northern part of Shengtang County is mainly plains, with many grasses and woods, so there are often wolves infested, and it is not surprising that a few wolves occasionally die.

"Cut into two pieces." Wang Miao saw that Li You didn't care too much, so he replied lightly.

"What!" This greatly surprised Li You. Orion kills a wolf, either with a bow and arrow, or with a spear, and even with a machete, it is impossible to cut it in two. Who did this? Li You couldn't help but think of the note on the water tank. If such a huge stone could be removed, it would not be unusual to cut off four wolves. What is this sacred?

Dangdang!

Just when Li You was puzzled, there was a knock on the door. "Who?" Li You asked.

"Childe, old slave Tian Xiao." Tian Xiao's voice came from outside the door.

"It's Uncle Tian, please come in quickly." Li You said as he stepped out of his seat and greeted him. In the past few days, he has been busy with cases all day long, and Li You has been in the yamen for food and lodging, and he has not returned home for three or four days. Now that Tian Xiao came suddenly, he naturally came on the orders of his mother.

"Sir!" Tian Xiao gave Li You a fist salute.

"Uncle Tian!" Because of the experience in the illusion, Li You has always been grateful to Tian Xiao, and he usually respects him very much.

"You haven't been back for four days, and the old lady knows that you're busy, but today there are guests, and the old lady asks you to go back."

"Guests?" Li You looked at Tian Xiao in surprise, and Tian Xiao also showed a puzzled look. "Said it was the child of the old lady's sister. The old lady originally had a younger sister, but she had been separated for many years. Moreover, the old slave always thought this person was strange. ”

"Weird?" Li You was even more confused.

"You'd better go back and see for yourself, the old slave will go back first." Although Tian Xiao was reluctant to say it explicitly, he obviously didn't trust this relative who suddenly appeared.

"Okay, Uncle Tian, I'll go back in a while."

After Li You sent Tian Xiao away, he became more and more concerned about this relative who suddenly appeared. Although Zhao Wu was dead, remembering what happened in the illusion, Li You never found out why the other party wanted to kill his mother. So, the more Li You pondered, the more unsteady he became, and finally he had no intention of working, and hurriedly walked to the mansion with Wang Miao.

………

"Haha..."

When Li You walked into the courtyard, he heard his mother's laughter coming from the main house. Li You quickened his pace and walked into the main hall in three steps and two steps.

In the main hall, Li Tian sat in the upper hand position, and a young man sat in the lower hand position, chatting happily with Li Tian. Next to the man, a child of seven or eight years old sits, holding a peach in one hand and munching on it.

"Mother." Li You stepped forward and saluted Li Tian's family, and when Li Tian's family saw Li You, he immediately smiled. "You'er, come here, my mother will introduce you." Li Tian was obviously in a good mood.

"Jian'er, this is my son Li You." Li Tian pulled Li You to his side and looked at the man in the lower position with a smile. "You'er, this is my sister, that is, your aunt's son, named Ouyang Jian. Quick, you two get to know each other. ”

At this time, Ouyang Jian stood up and looked at Li You with a smile. Li You didn't speak, but looked at it carefully.

This man is about the same height as himself, with a slender body, a handsome appearance, a pair of sword eyebrows, and under the backdrop of his long flowing hair, he looks even more heroic. And for some reason, the young man had a pale red bulge in the center of his eyebrows, which made him even more mysterious.

Li You focused on looking at Ouyang Jian, and Ouyang Jian seemed to be looking at Li You as well. The two stood still, staring at each other, neither of them speaking.

"Interesting! Interesting! At this time, Wang Miao suddenly spoke. At this time, his eyes were as clear as water, staring straight at Ouyang Jian.

When Ouyang Jian heard this, he turned his head to look at Wang Miao. After looking at it for a while, he was slightly startled, but immediately returned to normal. "Hmmm! Interesting! ”

Li You saw all this in his eyes, and immediately realized that this Ouyang Jian was definitely not an ordinary person, but it was not yet known whether he was a friend or foe. So, Li You turned to Li Tian. "Mother, you said that this is the child of your aunt's family, but you have been separated from your aunt for many years..."

"What do you want to say!" When Li Tian heard Li You's words, he immediately pulled his face down, and Li You suddenly stopped talking.

"See, this is brought by Jian'er." Li Tian may have felt that he was a little stiff, so he took out a silver lock from his arms. This silver lock looks like an ordinary hundred-year-old lock, but the color is gray, it must have been some years, and there is a golden Tian character in the center of the silver lock, which is actually inlaid with gold thread.

Li You vaguely remembered that he also had one, so he hurriedly showed a sudden expression. "Mother, the child remembers..." You have one too. Your grandfather asked a craftsman to make it and give it to me and your aunt respectively. Moreover, Jian'er told me about his mother's situation just now, which is no different from what I remember. ”

"In this way, it is the son who is too careful." When Li You heard this, he dared to ask for anything more, and hurriedly turned to Ouyang Jian. "How offended, I don't know who is older than you and me, and our brothers are good at talking about the elderly."

"I'm big!" Ouyang Jian turned to Li You and spoke crisply.

"Ugh." Li You was a little embarrassed, but seeing that Li Tian looked at Ouyang Jian with a look of affection, he had no intention of breaking the siege for himself, so he had to shake his head helplessly. "Brother Dongfang, Li You is polite." Li You clasped his fists and saluted Ouyang Jian.

"Tongli!" Ouyang Jian turned his head to look at the little boy beside him.

Same courtesy? What does Tongli mean? Li You looked at Ouyang Jian with a smile and a smile. Ouyang Jian didn't care, but pulled the little boy in front of Li You.

"Edamame!" Ouyang Jian pointed at the little boy.

"Ahh When Li You heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, but he remembered what Wang Miao said, and immediately looked at Ouyang Jian in surprise. "You saved him?"

"Water tank, no wonder!" Ouyang Jian didn't answer, but hugged his fist at Li You, and Li You nodded knowingly. From this point of view, this Ouyang Jian should not be his enemy, but he is still suspicious of whether he is his relative.

"Thank you!" Li You pulled edamame to his side and thanked Ouyang Jian with a fist. "Hmm!" Ouyang Jian just hummed and stopped talking, and Li You was speechless again. No matter what the strength is, this person's emotional intelligence is simply negative.

"Big brother Dongfang, there are some things, little brother..."For the sake of Zhao Wu's case, Li You had to endure it.

"Wait!" Ouyang Jian glanced at Li You, then turned to Li Tian's clan. "Auntie, my nephew has some things to discuss with Brother Li Youxian, and at dinner time, my nephew will come to greet you again."

"Okay, okay, go, go. You two brothers should be close and close. Li Tian's face was happy. Oh, by the way, this silver lock is going to be good to keep alive. ”

"My nephew knows." Ouyang Jian walked to Li Tian's side, took the silver lock with both hands, and carefully put it into his arms.

Li You stood aside, looking at Ouyang Jian dumbfounded, he really couldn't get used to it. The difference between the former and the latter is too great. Not only does he have a cold attitude, but he also can't wait to shrink two sentences into two words, he is not only polite to his mother, but he is more considerate than his own son.

"Let's go!" Ouyang Jian completely ignored Li You, who was standing on the side, stunned, and turned around and walked out of the main hall.

I'll go!

Li You couldn't help but sigh on his back. However, because there were too many things to ask Ouyang Jian for verification, he had to hand over the edamame to Wang Miao to take care of and hurriedly followed.

What kind of relatives are these relatives who suddenly appeared!
