Looking at the unconscious killer in this place, Ling Yue said to Bai Yi: "They are all people who want to kill you, you can deal with it." Ah Yun, it's a mess here, let's change to an inn to live. ”

Ah Yun nodded and followed her out.

Bai Yi caught up with them: "Miss Ling, there is an Anran Inn here, clean and comfortable, you can live there." ”

Hearing the name, Ling Yue thanked him and called Lao Wang.

Lao Wang was frightened, and when he heard that he had changed the inn, his soul was immediately fixed, and he was busy leading the horse.

Seeing the people of the capital in his hometown, he is still a benefactor, and Bai Yi wants to repay the rescue slightly.

"If you two don't dislike it, how about you have dinner together when I'm done dealing with things here?" By the way, I will introduce the customs of Hongcheng to the two. ”

Customs? You must be very familiar with this place!

Ah Yun and Ling Yue's eyes immediately straightened, and they asked at the same time, "Are you from Hongcheng?" ”

Bai Yi didn't think that Hongcheng people were something to be proud of, and nodded: "Yes." coincided with the death day of his father, so he took leave from the emperor and came back. ”

Ling Yue first expressed his condolences, and then looked at him with a smile, and that look made Bai Yi panic.

"Bai Gongzi, how old are you this year?"

Bai Yi didn't panic, he was directly stunned, and asked what does age mean when he comes up?

Or honestly: "Seventeen years old." ”

Hongcheng people, seventeen years old, hit both keywords!

Ling Yue and Ah Yun glanced at each other, and their eyes were shining.

Calm down!

Ling Yue stabilized his mind and said with a smile: "Young Master Bai, you ...... Do you look like your parents? ”

"Huh?" Bai Yi was even more confused, "I really don't know how to answer this, it's like it, it's not like it, it's not like it." At first glance, the eyes look like a mother and the nose looks like a father, but when you look closely, it seems that neither of them looks. ”

What to look at at at it carefully, the more Ah Yun listened, the more confused he became, and said directly: "The eldest lady wants to ask if you are born to your father." ”

Ling Yue pulled Ah Yun's sleeve in embarrassment, this kid is too sincere, so he can't be tactful.

Bai Yi laughed dryly, this question is really ...... Leave him at a loss.

wiped his sweat and cleared his throat: "This...... My father and mother really didn't mention it, they both died, and I can't verify it. I think it's supposed to be biological......"

Ling Yue was a little disappointed, and didn't mention it before he died, it was very likely to be biological.

However, there is another way to verify it.

smiled kindly: "Bai Gongzi, if it is not abrupt, then, can you roll up your sleeves and let us see your arms?" ”

Look at the arms? Isn't that abrupt?

Ah Yun didn't understand anymore, yesterday he was staring at the handsome son's face, and today he is looking at his arms.

What does the eldest lady want to do?

Ling Yue knew that he had misunderstood, and whispered to him, and he suddenly realized.

"Bai Yi, we are looking for someone, but I don't know if you are the person you are looking for. Let's take a look! ”

Anyway, it's not something to be seen in, Bai Yi hesitated for a moment and rolled up both sleeves.

There are quite a few scars, but they are all knife wounds, no burns.

Ling Yue sighed, and Ah Yun also sighed.

This made Bai Yi feel like he had made a mistake, and they were so disappointed?

He lowered his sleeves and looked sincere: "That, two, who are you looking for?" What are the features? Maybe I can help. ”

Thinking of the strength of many people, Ling Yue said, "Find a seventeen-year-old boy with a scald scar on his left arm." Twelve years ago, he was abducted and trafficked to Hongfu Township, Hongcheng. ”

Only then did Bai Yi understand, just talk about it when he was looking for someone, and the gods scared him by the chatter.

smiled: "Anyway, I still have some holidays, tomorrow I will accompany you to Hongfu Township to find people!" ”

It couldn't be better to have a guide!

Ling Yue nodded again and again: "Then you deal with the matter here first, and we will wait for you at the Anron Inn." ”

The next day, the three of them went to Hongfu Township together.

I knocked on more than two dozen doors and found nothing.

Either the grass grows outside the house and the warbler flies, and there is no one in the house; Either the outside of the house is clean and tidy, and the people in the house have never heard of the family surnamed Niu.

The more Ling Yue knocked, the more desperate she became, the more desperate she became, and her red eyes made Ah Yun uncomfortable.

"Miss Ling, there is still hope, don't be discouraged! What if there is a clue at a door? Bai Yi comforted.

The most important thing to find someone is to have a calm mind, otherwise he won't be able to catch so many assassins.

Ling Yue whispered "um", if it weren't for this "what if", she wouldn't have traveled thousands of miles from the capital to this place of poor mountains and bad waters.

Bai Yi stood on the path, saw a thatched hut at the end, thought that they were all here anyway, ran over and knocked on the door, and an old woman came out, looking about fifty years old.

He is small and wears a faded plain shirt and dark pants.

He looked at them with a wary face: "Who are you?" ”

Bai Yi smiled and said, "Auntie, we want to ask if there was a ...... here twelve years ago."

The old woman's face was full of impatience, and before he could finish speaking, she said, "Twelve years ago, a little boy of five years old was brought here with a burn scar on his left arm. ”

These words made the three of them look happy, especially Ling Yue, who pulled her arm excitedly: "Auntie, do you really know?" ”

Now there's hope!

The old woman pulled out her arm in disgust and said in a muffled voice, "I don't know. All I know is that there have been several groups of people since the beginning of the month, and everyone is looking for the little boy. ”

Ling Yue's eyes darkened, she thought she had made a new discovery.

After a pause, he asked again: "Auntie, do you know that eleven years ago, a family surnamed Niu was avenged and wiped out?" ”

The old woman, visibly annoyed, gave her a blank look.

Bai Yi pushed her and quietly handed her a silver ingot.

Ling Yue was stunned for a moment and understood.

handed the silver to the old woman: "Auntie, I'm sorry to delay your time, please accept this ingot of silver." ”

As soon as the old woman saw the silver, her bitter gourd face immediately turned into a smiling face, and she not only enthusiastically let them in, but also poured the tea herself.

"There is nothing to entertain in the countryside, only this coarse tea. These fruits are quite sweet, please try them! ”

The smile is extremely courteous, almost flattering. He also secretly turned around and bit the silver with the few remaining teeth of the fruit.

After confirming that it was true, he carefully put it away and smiled more kindly.

Ling Yue pursed his lips and smiled with the fruit, sure enough, there was money that could make the ghost grind, and secretly gave Bai Yi a thumbs up.

"It's human nature." Bai Yi said in a low voice.

Then he said to the old woman: "Auntie, at first glance, you are a warm-hearted person, if you know anything, just say it, thank you gifts are indispensable." ”

As soon as the old woman heard the thanksgiving gift, the conversation box opened.

"Many people in Hongfu Village have gone out to run for the future, and there are very few left, even fewer who have stayed for more than ten years, of course, I am one of them."

Ling Yue hurriedly echoed: "It seems that we asked the right person!" ”

The old woman raised the two wild eyebrows, and said with a smile: "The little girl is so smart! The previous groups of inquirers were all arrogant, and I don't want to say more to them, how can you be as sensible as you! ”

He looked out the door from a distance and said slowly.

"Niu Zi has been married for seven or eight years and has no children, and the two of them fight every day for this matter, if it weren't for the fact that the family is really poor, they would have taken a concubine a long time ago. They were afraid of the gossip in the village, so they left Hongfu Village, and who knew that they came back two years later, and brought back a boy. Counting the time, it was exactly twelve years ago. ”
