"What's going on?"

Lu Zheng's heart flashed, and he immediately asked:

"Isn't the blacksmith's house in the inner village? even if his children are gone, they should be found in the inner village, why did you come to the outer village?"

People with excellent skills such as Wu Dayuan and Wang Blacksmith are considered celebrities in the walled city, and most of their children are known to the villagers. Including the memory of the original owner, he also has a slight impression of Huwa, the son of the king blacksmith.

But the only problem is that the Wang blacksmith's family lives in the inner village, even if the child is really gone, they should start from the inner village first, how could Xu Yong and them run to the outer village?

"That's right. ”

Xu Yong took a breath and said quickly:

"About less than an hour ago, Blacksmith Wang's family came to our night patrol and said that his child had gotten up at night to pee in the yard, but I didn't know what was going on, and the man disappeared inexplicably. The whole family searched all around their house, dead or alive, but they couldn't find it.

After the team learned, they immediately sent all the teams to disperse in the inner village to start looking for the search, Brother Xu took a dozen of us to search all the way along the way, and some villagers told us that when we got up at night, we vaguely saw a strange shadow flashing by, and went to the direction of the outer village, so we arrived here, wanting to see if there could be anything found here. ”

Strange Shadows......

Could it be the one I saw yesterday?

The Missing Tiger Baby, the Suspicious Shadow...... Does this have anything to do with Aqing's sister-in-law?

The thoughts in Lu Zheng's mind spun rapidly.

"Brother Lu, I'm really sorry to wake you up, I'll go over first. ”

Seeing Lu Zheng's contemplative expression, Xu Yong didn't have time to delay, and turned around with a torch and left:

"Be careful at night, we're ......"

"Wait!"

Lu Zheng suddenly walked out of the courtyard and stopped him:

"How old is Blacksmith Wang's child this year?"

Xu Yong was a little confused: "The tiger baby is the third, I remember that she should be six or seven years old this year...... Brother Lu, what are you asking for?"

Lu Zheng's eyelids jumped slightly, and he immediately said, "What about Brother Xu, call him, I may have a clue!"

"Really?"

Xu Yong was a little surprised, turned around and shouted:

"Brother Xu, Brother Xu, come over quickly, there is a clue!"

The shouts floated out, and after a while, on the dirt road not far away, a figure followed the sound and walked quickly, it was the deputy captain of the night patrol team that Lu Zheng hadn't seen for a few days, Xu Hu.

"Alu?"

Xu Hu walked over, saw Lu Zheng behind Xu Yong at a glance, and hurriedly asked:

"Have you seen the son of the king's blacksmith?"

Lu Zheng's eyes flashed: "I haven't seen it, but I suspect that the disappearance of this child may be related to a person in the outer village." ”

Hearing Lu Zheng's meaning, Xu Hu's eyes moved suddenly:

"Who is this man?"

Lu Zheng said slowly: "This person has lost the child, and the child is the same age as the tiger baby." ”

Someone who lost a child...... Sister-in-law Aqing?

Lu Zheng didn't say it thoroughly, but Xu Hu and Xu Yong's faces changed slightly.

They naturally know the tragedy of Aqing's sister-in-law, who lost her son and husband and was mentally disordered, and she was undoubtedly an extremely hard-working woman.

Logically speaking, it is not impossible for a crazy woman who has lost her child to become ill and take away other children.

But it seems unlikely that such a mentally disturbed peasant woman sneaked into the inner village, touched the courtyard of the king's blacksmith's house, quietly abducted the tiger baby, and avoided all the patrols along the way.

"A Qing sister-in-law......"

After thinking for a moment, Xu Hu took a deep breath:

"Whether it has anything to do with her or not, we'll find out in the past. ”

Lu Zheng naturally wouldn't miss this kind of thing, he stepped forward with his knife, his eyes burning: "I'm more familiar with here, so let me take you there." ”

The strange encounters in the past two days made Lu Zheng very suspicious of Aqing's sister-in-law, and when he happened to encounter this kind of opportunity again, he naturally had to personally contact and investigate whether last night's incident was related to the other party.

"That's good. ”

Xu Hu nodded, and under his beckoning, several young men of the night patrol team who were searching around also followed curiously with torches.

These people are all teammates who the original owner Lu Ping used to train with, and they are all familiar with each other. Although they were a little puzzled when they heard that they were going to Aqing's sister-in-law's house, they didn't say much, and the group immediately walked in the direction of Aqing's sister-in-law's house under the leadership of Lu Zheng.

A Qing's sister-in-law's home was only a few hundred meters away from Lu Zheng's residence, and in less than a quarter of an hour, everyone had already come to the dilapidated courtyard where A Qing's sister-in-law lived in the dark.

Bang bang bang!

Without waiting for Lu Zheng to make a move, Xu Hu took the lead in stepping forward, slapped the broken door hanging on the side, and shouted in a low voice:

"Sister-in-law Aqing, I'm Xu Hu of the Night Patrol, are you in there?"

There was silence.

No response.

Xu Hu slapped a few times in a row, and after still no response, he frowned, and led everyone directly into the courtyard and came to the front of the house.

He was about to knock on the door, when all the men present, including Lu Zheng, suddenly heard a soft snort from the room:

"The moon is bright, the wind is quiet,

The shadows of the trees shade the windows.

Crickets, crickets,

It's like the strings ......"

It's a nursery rhyme.

The night was dark, the torch flame was shaking, and everyone who heard the humming voice suddenly felt a chill in their hearts.

There is no doubt that the person singing in the house is Ah Qing's sister-in-law, the problem is this nursery rhyme...... Who is she singing to?

"The sound of the piano is soft, and the tone is beautiful,

Shake the blue and swing lightly.

Mother's baby,

Close your eyes

Sleep that one sleeps in a dream. ”

The soft humming in the room continued, but Xu Hu suddenly made a warning gesture to make everyone retreat.

The situation was strange, and everyone, including Lu Zheng, raised their vigilance at once, and retreated with a cold face.

"Sister-in-law Aqing, open the door!"

At the same time, the long knife on Xu Hu's waist was already out of its sheath, and he shouted:

"Isn't the tiger baby here with you!?"

Inside the room, the soft humming sound was silent.

"Tiger baby......

Immediately afterwards, Aqing's sister-in-law's hoarse voice floated out of the house:

"There is no tiger baby, only my black baby......"

"My child, my mother has finally found you......"

Well?

The situation was really weird, Xu Hu's face turned cold, he took a step back, and the knife flashed, and he smashed the broken doors and windows next to the door in one fell swoop.

Lu Zheng, who was close to the window, saw from the afterglow of the torch that in a dark room, Aqing's sister-in-law, who was disheveled and ragged, was sitting alone on the edge of the bed, holding a small child's body in her arms, swaying slightly.

It seems to be the missing tiger baby!

"Sister-in-law Aqing, is it really you?"

Unexpectedly, the tiger baby was really here with Aqing's sister-in-law, everyone was furious, and Xu Hu shouted for the first time:

"Put down the tiger baby, come out immediately, don't force us to do it!"

Swish!

As soon as the words fell, Sister-in-law Aqing, who seemed to be coaxing the child to sleep, suddenly turned her head, staring at Xu Hu outside the broken window with terrifying and distorted eyes:

"You want to snatch it, my child?"

Xu Hu's face turned pale and he snorted coldly: "This is not your child! You can see clearly, this is the son of the king blacksmith, the tiger baby! Your black baby is no longer there!"

"Impossible!"

Sister-in-law A Qing instantly seemed to be stimulated by some extremely strong stimulus, and suddenly burst out with a piercing scream, only to see her holding the child in her arms, walked to the window, and screamed over and over again in an extremely evil, terrifying, and crazy attitude:

"This is my child!"

"This is my child!"

"This is my child!"

A strange and terrifying scream echoed in the night sky, and Lu Zheng suddenly saw that the corners of Aqing's sister-in-law's mouth were expanding bigger and bigger, and they almost cracked her ears at once.

At the same time, all the exposed skin and flesh on her face, hands, and neck, suddenly wriggled violently, as if there were countless ants crawling under her skin;

Then one by one, bud-like flesh buds rushed to break through her flesh and grow out, and it made people suddenly have a terrifying feeling that Aqing's whole body flesh and blood tissue had come to life and was screaming with her!

"Oh no!

Seeing such a terrifying scene of madness, evil, and distorted cognition, Xu Hu retreated again and again, and roared with a pale face:

"Prepare for battle!"

Terror has officially arrived, and the battle is on the verge of breaking out!
