"Ye Yuan, come and take a look at this piece of porcelain, does it look like a part of the pig's head mask we wore yesterday?" Liu Man'er glanced at it twice and handed it to Ye Yuan.

Ye Yuan also felt that this porcelain piece was more and more similar, after all, apart from the mask, he couldn't think of any other porcelain piece that would use such a thin porcelain piece.

"It should be." Ye Yuan nodded.

Liu Man'er said: "Yesterday, Ye He and Cao'er also had this kind of mask, and this fragment is very likely to be left by them. ”

"Let's see if there are any other fragments." Ye Yuan proposed.

The two of them bowed down and searched for it in this section, and sure enough, in the corner of the wall not far away, they found some broken porcelain pieces.

"It must have been Cao'er's masks that fell off and shattered, and the people in this alley, when they saw such broken porcelain, were afraid of hurting the children, so they swept them aside." Liu Man'er analyzed: "It is very likely that they were taken away here. ”

Ye Yuan frowned slightly, and said: "I understand, there were still a lot of people at that time, and it was impossible for them to take Xiaohe and the two of them outside openly, and they didn't dare to stay in this alley for a long time, so it is very likely that they went through this alley?" ”

"Hmm." Liu Man'er nodded and said, "Moreover, Xiaohe and the two are not children, they must have knocked the two of them unconscious and tied them away, let's go inside to see if there are any traces of carriages and horses." ”

The two looked at each other and walked into the alley.

Maybe it was their luck that this alley turned out to be a dead alley, and at the end, it turned out to be a family.

Liu Man'er's eyes narrowed, if she was a human trafficker, she would choose this last one if she chose the courtyard, and there was only one way out for the other courtyards, only this last family, which was quite secretive and accessible in all directions.

Liu Man'er noticed the courtyard gates of the other houses in this alley, their thresholds were all wooden, probably because there was only one gate in the courtyard, in order to facilitate the entry and exit of carriages and horses, it was designed in this way. After all, if the wooden threshold is made, when a carriage or horse passes by, it can be moved to the side, and when the carriage and horse pass, it can be returned to its original position.

And this family has a stone threshold, which looks very heavy, which is enough to prove that they have another door, which is not often entered.

Liu Man'er didn't know if her guess was right, after all, she was not a detective, this was someone's private house, so she couldn't rush in, after thinking about it, Liu Man'er raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Who?" An alert voice came from inside the room, and then, after a sound of footsteps, a fat woman poked her head out.

Seeing Liu Man'er, a trace of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she quickly glanced at Liu Man'er from the corner of her eye, before she showed a kind smile to Liu Man'er: "This girl, who are you looking for?" ”

"May I ask if this family is surnamed Ye?" Liu Man'er raised her head and asked shyly.

"What's wrong?" The woman's face was questioning.

The woman's words seemed to speak of Liu Man'er's thoughts, which made her eyes darken, and a trace of mist brewed in her eyes instantly: "There was a sudden change in the family, and I came to look for relatives." ”

"You are?" The woman looked at Liu Man'er carefully, as if to guess whether she was the relative of her family.

"My surname is Liu, I wonder if my aunt still remembers me?" Liu Man'er's eyelashes drooped slightly, and said: "My father said that when he was in business, he once made a marriage ......contract with a family surnamed Ye" Speaking of this, Liu Man'er's cheeks were crimson, she lowered her head, and said: "If my aunt doesn't recognize this family, it's just that." ”

"Oh, it's not that I don't recognize it, I can't remember it for a while." The woman stroked her palm and said, "Come in first, it's cold, but it's hard for you to be a girl." ”

The woman's words were full of pity, and her face was extremely kind, and Liu Man'er strode in as if she had been bewitched.

A monkey came from Liu Man'er's side, but startled the woman, "What is this?" ”

"It's a monkey I raised, it's called Shuai Shuai, but with it, I can perform all the way without starving to death." Liu Man'er Yingying said.

"I see, come in." The woman's expression regained her complexion, and when Liu Man'er entered, a smile appeared on her face, and she poked her head out to look around, and saw that there was no one else outside, so she closed the door.

After leading Liu Man'er to sit down in the house, the woman brought the tea and asked, "Are you the only one in your house?" ”

"It's not." Liu Man'er shook her head, but she didn't touch the woman's tea.

"Not? Oh...... So are you looking for relatives alone? The woman asked again.

"Hmm." Liu Man'er nodded, took off a hairpin from her head, and said, "This hairpin is my token, and I also ask my aunt to take a look, it was originally a pair, and there is another one that must be here in my aunt, can you take a look?" ”

The woman had just taken the silver hairpin in Liu Man'er's hand and played with it, and when she heard Liu Man'er say this, the movement of her hand was a pause, and she said, "I ...... this hairpin."

"What? Did you lose it? Liu Man'er asked.

"Yes." The woman descended the steps.

"My mother said that there must be a token, if there is no token, I should leave first." Liu Man'er said and stood up.

"Hey, don't worry." The woman hurriedly said, "I'll look for it again, you have walked such a long way, let's have a cup of tea." ”

"Please don't insult me, auntie, I'm not such a casual person, even if I'm a performer along the way, I've never sat in a stranger's house, I think I'd better leave first." Liu Man'er said that she was going to leave again.

Liu Man'er's words were a bit far-fetched, but this woman only wanted to keep Liu Man'er, and she didn't care whether it was appropriate for her to say this, seeing that she was just inviting her to have a cup of tea, she was able to pull the insult, and she felt more and more that this was a well-educated boudoir woman.

This kind of delicate woman is worth it, she can't let go of the fat sheep in her mouth, hearing Liu Man'er say that she wants to go, this woman stopped in front of Liu Man'er without thinking about it, and said, "Drink a cup of tea and leave!" ”

Her tone was already a little hideous, and Liu Man'er seemed to be frightened, so she couldn't help but take two steps back and whispered, "I'm not thirsty......"

"Little girl, don't toast or eat." The woman's eyes turned cold, and she said, "My house is not something that anyone can enter. ”

"If my aunt is not a relative of my family, please let me go, I still have to go to find my relatives." Liu Man'er pleaded.

"Since you said so, that aunt won't let you go, it's like a wicked person." The woman said and moved away, and although Liu Man'er hesitated, she still raised her slender foot and walked towards the door.

As soon as she went out, a big stick was raised on the back of her head, and Liu Man'er suddenly turned her head and shouted: "Be careful! ”

The man with the stick didn't react, and as a result, he was knocked out by Ye Yuan next to him with a stick.

"It's all told you to be careful, but not careful, you think I'm you, so treacherous." Liu Man'er showed a hint of a smile at this time, with two points of cunning, and the woman suddenly felt bad when she saw it, and took two steps back, but it was too late.

Ye Yuan walked over with a stick, and without saying a word, he slammed it, and the woman's fat body fell.

"The more harmless people laugh, the more dangerous they are, and today I know it." Liu Man'er said.

"Now that you know, you should be more vigilant in the future." Ye Yuan kicked the fat woman as he spoke, and seeing that she was indeed unresponsive, he put down the stick, took Liu Man'er's hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go find out where Ye He and the others are." ”

"In my experience, it must have been in some small room in the middle of nowhere." Liu Man'er said and walked to the backyard.

Ye Yuan thought the same as her, the two walked to the backyard, and after a while, Liu Man'er heard a voice from the backyard, and was crossing the threshold of the backyard, but a little fat man suddenly came out, he saw Liu Man'er and the two, raised his head, and said proudly: "Who are you?" ”

"It doesn't matter who we are." Liu Man'er didn't bother to talk nonsense with this little fat man, and continued to go to the place where the sound came from.

"Stop!" But the little fat man was unrelenting, and he said, "Who are you?" What are you doing at my house? ”

Liu Man'er didn't pay attention to him, she just didn't hear it, she had already seen a broken house in the corner, and now she just wanted to see if Ye He and the others were inside.

Seeing that Liu Man'er and the two didn't pay attention to him, the little fat man chased after him, he seemed to know Liu Man'er's intentions, so he ran to the door of the house, guarded the door, and suddenly raised his voice and shouted loudly: "Daddy, come on, someone wants to steal my pig!" ”

"Pigs?" Liu Man'er slapped her backhand, "Knowing that your father and mother deserve it, I thought that you were innocent as a child, but I didn't expect you to be so bad!" ”

Saying that, she angrily slapped the little fat man twice, and there were red finger prints on his face, and he knelt on the ground and begged for mercy.

"A stupid pig who bullies the soft and fears the hard!" Liu Man'er spat and shouted inside: "Little lotus, Cao'er, are you there?" ”

"Looks like someone is calling us." Ye He was overjoyed and pushed the grass beside him.

"Is there one?" Cao'er opened her eyes in a daze, her body had always been weak, but her lips were dry at the moment, and her consciousness was also groggy.

"Yes!" Ye He heard the sound of gravity hitting the door, and heard Liu Man'er call their names again, and immediately cried with joy, "Sister-in-law, we are here!" ”

"Xiaohe, Cao'er, don't be afraid!" Liu Man'er said and began to kick the door, but although the wooden door looked shabby, she really couldn't kick it open all of a sudden, and after thinking about it, she lifted the collar of the little fat man and asked, "Where is the key?" ”

"At my dad's." The little fat man said tremblingly.

"Hurry up and I'll get it!" Liu Man'er took the little fat man's hand and let it go, and the little fat man staggered back and ran away.

After he left, Ye Yuan reached out and pulled out the hairpin on Liu Man'er's head, and turned around the key, only to hear a "click", and the key was opened.

"I didn't expect you to have this craft." Liu Man'er was overjoyed, glanced at Ye Yuan, and removed the key.

As soon as the door opened, the light came through the dark room, Liu Man'er saw many children who were bound, she frowned, walked into the house, and soon found Ye He and Cao'er, the two of them were also tied up like zongzi.
