"Stolen?" My heart moved, "Where did you steal it?" Research institutes? ”

"What research institute?" The man looked at me blankly.

Xiang Feng wanted to speak, but I stretched out my hand to him and said to the man, "Where did you steal it from, how did you steal it, tell me in detail." ”

The man told us that he and his wife had been married for more than 10 years and had never had children. When he was in his second year of marriage, he went to the hospital for a check-up and said that his wife was infertile. The two of them decided to adopt a child or spend money to buy one. However, several years later, this wish has not been realized.

On this day, a wandering wild fortune teller came to their town, and the two couples who thought about the child invited the gentleman to their home, hoping that he would calculate when the two of them would have children. Judging from the man's description, the gentleman was nothing more than a charlatan, and after the god of Haikan blew it, the gentleman told the man that if he wanted to have children, he had to go south.

The man believed the gentleman's words, and from then on he often went out of his house to the south, and the steel business was also purchased from the south. In a flash, another few years have passed, and the fortune teller's words have not come true, and the man has never met his child, and gradually he has given up, until one day some time ago...

On this day, the man went out and bought a batch of steel, ready to be pulled back and sold to the hardware factory in the town. Halfway back, he encountered a serious car accident on the road ahead, the road was closed, and he had to take a detour, so the man drove west onto a stumbling dirt road. In the evening, when he came to a small town, which was still a long way from home, and at this pace he was going to drive all night, and the man decided to eat something in the town and rest his feet. Came to a small restaurant in the town, the man said in his heart, this single business can make a lot of money, you can treat yourself, anyway, it is the wrong way, there is no car on the road in the middle of the night, no one checks, it doesn't matter if you drink some wine, so he ordered two stir-fried vegetables, a plate of pig's head meat, and ordered a bottle of wine.

After eating and drinking, the man walked out of the restaurant and started the car out of town. As the night deepened, the stamina of wine came up one after another, and as the man drove the car, he felt that the road ahead was swaying back and forth. Wandering around, suddenly, the man found himself lost, and he didn't know where he had gone. After driving forward for a while, he stopped the car, got out of the car and smoked a cigarette, and was blown by the cold wind, and the man felt much more sober. He got up and looked around, and saw that there was a village in the distance ahead, and he decided to go to the village to ask for directions, so he started the car and staggered towards the village. When I came to the village, I saw that this was a remote and backward village, with a large area, and the houses were all old-fashioned tiled houses built in the sixties and seventies, and all kinds of mottled slogans were painted on the outer walls.

After turning around, it was dark in every house, and the villagers had already fallen asleep, and it didn't feel very good to knock on the door to wake up others and ask for directions. When he came to a small road behind the village, the man stopped the car, and when he didn't know what to do, he suddenly noticed a faint light coming out of a forest in the distance.

The man was overjoyed, got out of the car, and walked along the path toward the woods. When I came to the forest, the light suddenly disappeared. The man was startled, he woke up more than half of the wine, the wind was blowing, like a ghost crying, and the trees in the forest were clucking. Just as he was about to turn back, he looked down and saw the path come here, make a bend, and go around the forest.

Looking down carefully, he found that there were traces of wheels rolling on this path, and thought to himself, perhaps, there is a house behind this forest, as for the light he saw before, it was not a ghost, but from the house of the person behind the forest. Thinking so, he followed the path, skirted the woods, and sure enough, he saw a house.

The mansion in front of me is very new, very magnificent, with high walls and red doors, compared to those buildings in the village, this mansion is tantamount to a royal palace. Seeing that the courtyard door was open, the man thought that the owner of the house should not be asleep, and decided to go in and ask for directions. Pushing the door into the courtyard, it was pitch black, the man hesitated, came to the door of the main house, and was about to knock on the door, when suddenly, he heard a faint cry of a baby in the side room.

Attracted by an inexplicable force, he came to the door of the side room, and with a gentle push, the door opened. When he came inside, he smelled a strange smell. took out a lighter and lit it, only to see a small bed in the corner of the room, the bed was covered with a quilt, and the bulge in the middle was moving.

His heart was beating in the cavity, and when he came to the bed, he saw that the quilt had a strange shape, and the quilt was painted with a peculiar pattern. After hesitating for a moment, he reached out and grabbed the corner of the quilt and slowly lifted it back.

The quilt felt very soft and not heavy at all, but for some reason, it was very laborious to lift it up, as if the bed had suction power and sucked the quilt. After a lot of effort, I finally lifted the quilt, only to see a small baby curled up on the bed...

"And then you took the baby back to the car and brought it back to your house, didn't you?" I asked.

"Hmm." The man said, "I think my son is going crazy, and my brain is hot, and I feel that God gave me that child." I took off my coat, wrapped the boy up, ran out of the house with my arms, got back into the car, started the car and ran, and turned around until dawn, and then I found my way back until dawn. ”

"What about the child after he gets it back?" I asked.

The man said that the child was brought back, and it looked no different from an ordinary child, he would cry and make trouble, and he would also eat milk powder, just a little, it is said that babies grow very quickly, but after these days, the child does not look long at all. Originally, the two couples had no parenting experience, and the stolen child, for fear that others would come to find them, did not dare to let the people in the town know for a while, the man heard that the child would be fed at night, so he set an alarm clock, but I don't know why, I can't wake up every night, and when I got up the next morning, I saw that the child was sleeping peacefully, and I didn't take it seriously.

"What did you see on the quilt that covered the child?" Xiang Feng thought for a moment and asked.

"Anyway," the man gestured, scratching his head, "I don't remember exactly, I drank so much wine, and I was flustered at the time." ”

"If." Xiang Feng said, "Let you take us to the house where you found the child now, can you still find that place?" ”

"Can't find it." The man spread his hands, "On the fifth day of the child's return, I was uneasy and wanted to find out what the reaction of the family who lost the child was, but I couldn't remember the way at all, and I couldn't find the place no matter how I searched. ”

"You should remember the location of the town where you were drinking, right?" I asked.

"Then I remember, it's just, I don't know the name of the town..."

The man made a gesture and described to us the town he had taken the route he had taken.

"Two Brother Kei..."

"What two brothers?" I frowned.

"Oh no, two handsome guys."

"Well, what's wrong?"

"That kid, why did he jump out of the bed by himself just now?" The man asked tremblingly.

"It wasn't a kid at all, it was a youkai."

"Youkai?"

"Hmm."

I don't know what that kid is, so I can only call it a 'monster'.

Xiang Feng asked the man and his wife about their birthdays, and measured their lives at the beginning, and their lives did not change, which means that the child did not harm the two couples, but just used this place as its shelter. As for the reason why these two couples are full of black faces, it is because there is the child in the family.

Before leaving, we put a lot of talisman paper inside and outside the man's house, and told the couple not to tell anyone about the child.

"Ah Feng, what do you think?" Coming outside, I asked.

"I feel—" Xiang Feng stared into the distance, "the man wasn't lying. ”

"Then according to that, the place he found is Fan Tongtian's lair, and the reason why Fan Tongtian ran to this town is to find that child?" I asked.

Xiang Feng pondered and did not answer.

The kid was blown off one of his legs by Xiang Feng with the Lonely Void Rune, and he didn't know where to hide. That night, we waited in Boss Zhao's factory and material area, and before we waited for it, Fan Tongtian did not show up.

Early the next morning, Wei Niuniu and Xiao Tutu bought breakfast. Xiang Feng and I sat opposite each other in Wei Niuniu's office, eating and discussing the next plan of action.

"I think—" I took a sip of porridge and smacked my lips, "and the two of us went our separate ways." ”

"How do you split up?" Xiang Feng asked.

"You stay in this town, look for that 'little monster', and wait for Fan Tongtian. As for me, I'll go find the house that the man who stole the child said, and see if it's Fan Tongtian's lair. ”

Xiang Feng thought for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay, but let Yuxin go with you, she has good skills and can help you." ”

"Okay, I'll also assign you a virtuous helper." I smiled and snapped my fingers, "Tutu, come in." ”

"What's wrong?" Small Tutu pushed the door in.

I pointed to the wind, "The handsome man's diet and daily life will be handed over to you." ”

"Okay, okay."

"First of all, if you're hungry and thin, I'll nail you to the wall with a thumbtack."

Xiao Tutu pouted, "You dare, I'll let Niuniu rub you into cold noodles..."

I called Yu Xin, and Yu Xin and the others had already returned to Master's house from the city.

"How is Uncle Yang?" I asked.

"It's okay, I drank two big bowls of porridge, took the little fox to catch the hare, and said that we would have more food at noon."

"Hey, this old and unproductive one, forget the pain of the scar, Yuxin, you can drive here, my car is left for Ah Feng, I'll wait for you at the entrance of the town..."

After hanging up the phone and reporting my movements to Morningstar, I left the factory and headed for the town. The children are already on winter vacation, running around the street setting off firecrackers, smelling gunpowder, facing the biting cold wind, and vaguely feeling the breath of 'Nian'.

When I came to the entrance of the town, I found a sheltered place, squatted on the ground, rubbed my frozen red ears, lit a cigarette, and waited for Yuxin for a long time.

Parking the car, Yuxin opened the car door and walked down and smiled at me.

"Ah Leng."

"Huh?"

"Master asked me to bring you a magic weapon."

My eyes lit up, "What a magic weapon?" ”

"In the car."
