Anxiously stepping out of the courtyard, Lee tried to calm himself down.

All the subordinates of the Li family's courtyard were mobilized, and Li Sujie and the gentlemen called their own entourage and guards to help find them.

Di Renjie was asking the steward and subordinates of the other courtyard one by one, asking them if Buck'er had been abnormal recently, whether the disappearance was done by a person or someone abducted.

Outside the courtyard, the mountains and fields around Ganjingzhuang are full of torches lit by farmers, and the night is as bright as day.

The dealers cast their nets to search, and they slowly pushed forward in a row, calling out the name of buckwheat as they went.

Li Qinzai was anxious, Liu Asi looked guilty, and stood behind him without saying a word, pressing the handle of the knife with his right hand, as if he would pull out the knife at any time to commit suicide.

After a long time, Di Renjie came over and said in a deep voice: "Uncle Li, the lower officials have asked, there was nothing abnormal before Ling Lang disappeared, and the subordinates said that they saw Ling Lang smiling happily in the afternoon......

Li Qinzai's face became more and more cold, and said, "If there is no abnormality, then someone has abducted it?" ”

Liu Ah Si behind him said: "Fifth Shaolang, the subordinates have inquired, there have been no strangers in and out of Ganjingzhuang in the past few days, and the villagers are all safe, and there are no people who suddenly leave home." ”

Li Qinzai grabbed his hair irritably, and said angrily: "It's not abduction, and it's not leaving by yourself, can Buckwheat fly to the sky inexplicably?" ”

Liu Asi lowered his head and said: "Xiao Langjun has been surrounded by the tribes in the afternoon, rummaging inch by inch, every haystack has been unloaded, and there is still no trace of Xiao Langjun...... Damn the villain! ”

Li Qinzai said coldly: "Now is not the time to discuss who deserves to die, if you can't find it near Zhuangzi, expand the search area, expand the scope to Zhuangzi within a radius of ten miles, and cast a net search." ”

"Yes!"

Di Renjie said slowly: "Uncle Li, according to the experience of the subordinate officials for many years in the case, Ling Lang Gongzi can be sure that no one is abducted, and your family is also responsible, and your family is also taking care of Ling Lang when he is playing, not surprisingly, it should be Ling Lang who left by himself, or deliberately hid so that no one could find him." ”

Li Qinzai said with a gloomy face: "I get along with Buckwheat day and night, I know best whether he is abnormal, such a sensible child, I have never beaten and scolded him, I have never broken his heart, why did he leave home for no reason?" ”

Di Renjie smiled bitterly: "Xiaguan is not very clear, after all, it is the family affair of Li Xianbo and Ling Lang, and the child's mind is often difficult for adults to guess......

Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, and then the hint of relief that flashed in Buck'er's eyes when he took off his auspicious clothes this morning came to mind.

Did you ignore something?

There were still a few subordinates left in the courtyard, and Zanliang of Corno moved slightly, and unconsciously took a step forward.

Li Qinzai noticed her, and glanced at her with a cold gaze: "Do you have something to say?" ”

Tsuno Zanliang panicked for a while, and said in a low voice: "Slave maid...... There's something to report. ”

"Say."

"Slave maid...... In the afternoon, I chatted with Xiao Langjun in the backyard. ”

Hope rose in Li Qinzai's eyes: "What did you say? ”

"Xiao Langjun doesn't seem to be very happy......"

"And then?"

He said...... He is very sensible because he is a concubine. ”

Li Qinzai was stunned, a touch of distress flashed in his eyes, and he said calmly: "What else?" ”

"Xiao Langjun also said that he actually doesn't like to read and do questions, but he has to listen to his father, so he must be sensible, so he can only read and do questions obediently."

Li Qinzai said coldly: "Has he ever revealed the idea of running away from home?" ”

Tsuno Zanliang hurriedly shook his head: "No, he said that he would always be sensible." ”

Li Qinzai stared at her face and said, "If you recall it carefully, it's best to repeat every word he said as it is." ”

Seeing that his eyes were as terrible as if he was about to kill, Luye Zanliang trembled, bit his lower lip and tried to recall, and finally said: "The slave maid also heard him say that when Grandma brought him to Chang'an, she told him that he was a concubine, so you must be obedient and don't dislike your father and the Li family......"

Li Qinzai had a flash of inspiration in his mind and muttered, "Grandma, grandma......"

Liu Asi behind him also realized, and said urgently: "Fifth Shaolang, Xiao Langjun's grandmother and several women and children were rescued by the old man, and they seem to be placed in Zhuangzi in Puzhou, not far from our Weinan County, and Xiao Langjun also grew up there since he was a child......"

Li Qinzai immediately said: "Prepare the horse, go to Puzhou!" ”

…………

Liu A gathered more than 20 troops at four o'clock, and Li Qinzai took the lead and flew towards Puzhou.

In the middle of the night, Li Qinzai and his subordinates had rushed to a village called "Fanglongzhuang" outside Puzhou.

After entering the village, Buqu asked someone to inquire about it, asked where Grandma lived, and the group came to the door of Grandma's house

Grandma's house is very shabby, almost dilapidated, with a small courtyard surrounded by uneven bamboo fences, two wooden bungalows leaking everywhere, and the steps are covered with moss, which looks more like a thousand-year-old tomb that no one cares about.

Li Qinzai stepped forward and knocked on Grandma's door, the light in the room was quickly lit, and the withered Grandma came out in her clothes, and Grandma couldn't help but be taken aback when she saw Li Qinzai.

Li Qinzai hurriedly told her the news of Qiao'er's disappearance.

Grandma's expression flashed with anxiety, and she tried to calm down and thought for a long time, and suddenly muttered, "About ...... There it is. ”

Li Qinzai hurriedly asked, "Where is it?" ”

Grandma glanced at him and said, "Young Lang Jun, come with the old body......"

The group was carrying torches, Li Qinzai supported Grandma, and everyone walked out of the village and climbed an unnamed low mountain outside the village.

When she came to the mountainside, Grandma squinted her eyes to identify the direction, and said in a deep voice, "Go there and have a look." ”

The subordinates walked over with torches, and under the reflection of several torches, Li Qinzai couldn't help but be taken aback, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

There is a lonely grave on the mountainside, and there is a tombstone in front of the grave.

The tombstone is engraved with the words "Li Men Han Clan", and the inscription is the names of Li Qinzai and Buck Son.

Buckwheat's small body curled up under the tombstone, already asleep.

His little face was dirty, his cheeks were covered with tears, and he still leaned his head on the tombstone when he slew, as if he was snuggled in his mother's arms, and slept peacefully.

There is also a piece of preserved fruit on the small altar in front of the tombstone, which was brought out by buckwheat from the Li family's courtyard.

Everyone couldn't help but be moved when they saw this scene, Li Qinzai held back his tears, stepped forward gently, and picked up Qiao'er from the cold ground.

Buck'er suddenly woke up at this time, opened her eyes and saw Li Qinzai, she suddenly felt a little weak, and said softly: "Dad, I ......"

Li Qinzai smiled tearfully: "It's cold on the ground, sleep in my father's arms." ”

Buckwheat seemed to be very tired, no one knew how he came to his mother's grave from Ganjingzhuang, and he looked very tired, so he immediately closed his eyes when he heard the words, and continued to fall asleep.

Grandma stood behind her and kept wiping her tears, and swallowed even more: "This child, I miss his mother." ”

Li Qinzai sat cross-legged in front of the tombstone, holding the sleeping buckwheat in his arms, and looked at the tombstone seriously for the first time.

"Li Men Han Clan", a few simple words, has explained the short life of Linnu.

Li Qinzai stared at the tombstone fixedly, it was the cause planted by his predecessor, he didn't know what the love between himself and her was like, and he didn't even know whether his predecessor had love for her.

But now, cause and effect are clearly in front of him.

Whether buckwheat is the crystallization of love or the result of a moment of greed and joy in the predecessor, in short, Li Qinzai is very grateful to God for bringing him buckwheat.

This father-son relationship, no matter what it came from, must have a satisfactory explanation.

Staring at the cold tombstone, Li Qinzai suddenly said: "Grandma, did Linnu hate me before he died?" ”

Grandma shook her head: "From beginning to end, she never said a word of hatred for you, before closing her eyes, she was only worried about Buckwheat." ”

Lee was silent again.

That period of the past has become an irretrievable blank, and with that cold tombstone, it is buried in the ground forever.

He has traveled thousands of years to come here, he can't witness anything, and he can't make up for anything, and the little person in his arms may be an end to that completely dusty past.

Li Qinzai carefully hugged the sleeping buckwheat, and said softly without looking back: "Ah Si, take incense and candles." ”

Liu Asi sent a subordinate into the village, and it didn't take long for him to bring incense and candles.

Li Qinzai carefully handed the sleeping buckwheat to the grandmother, then knelt down on one knee in front of the tombstone, lit the incense candle without saying a word, stared fixedly at the words on the tombstone, and bowed down.
