Lin Xu took Wen Ming and Yu Yu to the broken temple in the west of the city.

It's autumn, there are dead trees and fallen leaves everywhere, the temple is still quite large, and the surrounding doors and windows are already broken, and it looks dead and silent. The floor was covered with dead leaves and straw, and in some places there were shabby, dirty quilts.

It was still early, and most of them hadn't gone out yet, but few of them got up, and they were all curled up and lying on the ground.

Some of the positions are not good, and they may come in through the wind and curl up very badly.

A place that can barely shelter from the wind and rain, about twenty people are crowded.

"It's hard to get food when you go out in the morning, and it's better to go hungry when you sleep." Lin Xu said.

Wen Ming stepped forward and walked into the temple.

There were very few people who really fell asleep, and when someone saw Lin Xu, they shouted, "Wood? ”

"It's really wood."

The people on the ground opened their eyes when they heard the sound and sat up staggeringly.

looked at Lin Xu and Wen Ming.

Wen Ming brought a lot of steamed buns.

"Bring something to eat, let's get up and eat something first." Lin Xu said.

Hearing that there was food, the children immediately moved, and quickly got up and surrounded Lin Xu.

Lin Xu walked to an old man with two steamed buns: "Grandpa Hua, give." ”

The old man took it and said, "Wood, why did you come back?" ”

Lin Xu asked, "Grandpa Hua, have you seen Uncle Dogtooth recently?" ”

The old man broke a small piece of steamed bread with his hand, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it very slowly.

"Gone!" The old man sighed.

"Gone? Where did it go? Lin Xu hurriedly asked.

"People are gone."

"Why is it suddenly gone?" Lin Xu couldn't believe it.

"I heard from the people in the south of the city that they drank too much wine and fell into the river and drowned."

The old man continued to break the steamed bun in his hand as he spoke.

"Uncle, how long ago was that?" Wen Ming asked.

"I can't remember the specifics, it's been more than a month." The old man recalled.

When I heard this, my heart was cold.

I finally found a little direction, but before I could take a step, the road was broken.

Wen Ming didn't continue to ask anything, and left with Lin Xu.

"Sister, don't you want to continue to investigate, maybe there are other clues?" Lin Xu was a little unwilling, thinking that he could help his sister, but this was the result.

"No need, let a beggar die quietly, there are too many methods, and it is too simple, it will not leave any trace." Wen Ming didn't pursue it any further.

Being able to find a beggar to do this, it can be seen that the person behind it is thoughtful, and will not leave any clues after getting rid of a beggar, she can't take chances.

In fact, even if the beggar is not dead, what can be known is very limited, and he may not even know anything.

When Wen Ming said this, Yu Xuan glanced at her.

"Why are there only children and old people among the beggars in the ruined temple, and no adults?" Wen Ming asked Lin Xu.

"We were originally in the Chengnan Temple, Uncle Dogtooth was also there, the Chengnan Temple was better, the roof of the temple did not leak rain, and the windows were not broken much, and then the number of beggars increased, and we were driven out. Grandpa Hua took the initiative to walk with us. Lin Xu replied.

"What kind of person is Dogtooth?"

"Uncle Dogtooth is very clever, and he asks for a lot of copper plates and food every time, but he likes to save copper plates for a long time, go to eat and drink, and then continue to live a hard life."

Wen Ming didn't ask again, it was obvious that the other party's target was very good.

Now that the clue is broken, it's not without gain. At least I know that this road is not going to work, and I don't need to waste any more time and energy along this clue.

Wen Ming sent a letter to Wei Penglan, and in the evening, Wen Ming took Yu Yu to Wei's mansion.

"You're looking for a good guard." Wei Penglan looked at it.

"It's pretty good." Wen Ming nodded.

Then Wei Penglan led Wen Ming in.

Of course, Guardian Thistle is also there.

"The merchant who went to the Golden Jade Hall last time and pretended to work with me was a beggar." Wen Ming said.

"Beggars?" Wei Jiyan said in a questioning tone.

"I also found out by accident, but unfortunately I've been dead for more than a month, so I should have been killed."

"This person is really ingenious, no wonder there have been no clues for so long." Wei Penglan said.

"A rich businessman dressed as a beggar can make the shopkeeper full of gold and jade unnoticed, which shows that he is an unusual beggar." Wei Jiyan said.

This is also what Wen Ming thought before, I can only say that I pick people well, I am clever, I like to eat and drink, I am easy to start, and I am good at killing.

"Knowing that you are coming, I called Doctor Fang, and you should pay attention to your body at any time." Wei Penglan said.

Wen Ming was just about to speak.

Wei Penglan immediately said, "You can't refuse." ”

Wen Ming shook her head and smiled.

After Dr. Fang came in to check Wen Ming's pulse, he frowned.

Wei Penglan saw that Doctor Fang's expression was serious, and she also became nervous: "How is it?" ”

Doctor Fang put away his hand to check the pulse and said, "With all due respect to Fang, Miss Wang, your physical condition should be clear to you, and it is not suitable for use of force or strenuous physical activity. ”

Wei Penglan felt wrong when she heard it: "What are you doing?" ”

Wei Jiyan thought of something.

"You're still training?" ”

Wen Ming knew that he couldn't hide it, so he could only say: "Yes." ”

The disobedient patient probably didn't like the doctor, so Dr. Fang checked it and shook his head and went out.

"You don't want to die?" Wei Penglan was obviously excited.

"It's important to enter the Sifang Hall?" Wei Jiyan asked.

"It's important." Wen Ming said solemnly.

Although Wei Jiyan disagrees, he understands.

The important thing, no matter what you give, always have to try. He didn't say anything more.

But I'm still curious, what is it about a woman that is worth risking her body?

"What's more important than your life?" But Wei Penglan wouldn't think so.

"How can it be so serious as you say, my own body, I am measured, and besides, with Mr. Qu watching, I can joke with my own life." Wen Ming took out Qu Yan as a shield.

In fact, he also knew in his heart that because Mr. had never seen her injuries and didn't know the specific situation, when the selection rules of the Sifang Hall changed, he was worried about her body at the first time, but she changed the topic.

In Mr.'s heart, she is a very measured person, so she didn't ask any more.

If I knew the situation at the time and the after-effects of the injury, I am afraid that I would not easily agree.

But she is not reckless, although the heart and lungs are damaged, but proper exercise can strengthen the heart and lung function, and she will control it well.

Wei Penglan looked at Wen Ming with suspicious eyes, it was obvious that she trusted the doctor's judgment more.

Wen Ming continued: "Don't look at me like this, I still have a lot of things to do, it's a shame. ”

Wen Ming didn't lie about this.

Wei Penglan knew that she couldn't say anything if she couldn't say anything for a while. But I still thought about how to persuade Wen Ming to dispel this idea.

Wen Ming left the Wei family and went to the academy the next day, and Yu Yu stayed with Aunt Feng.
