The three programmes were quickly put into practice. Long Zhuangye cooperated with Xiao Wu's arrangement, with a large flashlight, and a team of three to search back and forth between his granddaughter's school and residence. The middle section is relatively long, not straight, 2 kilometers away from the school, there is a low mountain, said to be a mountain, not very standard, it should be said to be a raised hill full of miscellaneous woods, and there are a few deserted graves in the forest. The asphalt road that runs from the school is bypassed by the edge of the hill.

Long Zhuangye's three-person team found this place, and instead of staying on the road, they went into the forest to look for it. Some shine with flashlights, some light torches, and shout the name of the dragon fragrance while taking photos, but the forest is empty, and there are also responses that they don't care about or don't care.

For example, when Long Zhuangye called in a rough voice, and then used a large flashlight to shoot a pillar of light in the forest, there was a fluttering sound of wings on a tree in front of Leng Zhuangye, and it turned out that one or several nesting birds were frightened and flew away in the night.

In the mixed shouts of many people, Long Zhuangye heard it, and there was the shouting of his daughter-in-law Cheng Shenggui. He followed the sound and found that she was in another group that had been found, so there were 4 people in this group, including Cheng Shenggui.

Long Zhuangye frowned and asked, Sheng Gui, I didn't ask you to go back to your mother's house to find it, why are you with them? Cheng Shenggui already had tears on her face, she didn't want people to see it, so she extinguished the flashlight in her hand, and replied sadly, Dad, I want to look for everyone for a while, if I find the fragrance, I don't need to go back to my parents' house to find it; If you don't find it, it's not too late to go back to your parents' home.

Long Zhuangye didn't continue to ask, and was about to ask Xiao Yang, the head of the sales section of the group, but Xiao Yang understood what he meant, so he spoke first: Mr. Long, our group didn't find anyone at the school, so we came here to find it.

Long Zhuangye said "oh" and nodded, affirming Xiao Yang's approach. Then he said, "Now that you are here, let us meet together and concentrate our search for you." Xiao Yang said yes, and found that the group led by Xiao Wu also lit torches and shouted the child's name, and walked over from there. Long Zhuangye said that just wait for Xiao Wu and them to come, and the three of us will deploy it again, how to find it.

After a while, the three groups came to the forest to gather, commanded by Long Zhuangye, they found the west end from the east end of the forest, and then from the north end to the south end, combing the uneven trees and weeds like a grate, those flashlights and torches illuminated the forest clearly, but there was still no shadow of the dragon's fragrance.

Cheng Shenggui, who was looking for a child in the team, was particularly anxious, her almonds were in tears, and when she passed by a graveyard, she shuddered, then raised her left hand to wipe away her tears, and followed the flashlight pillar of her right hand to look at a stele in front of the grave, but there was nothing.

Cheng Shenggui shouted Long Fangxiang's name in a crying voice, and when there was no news, he felt that there was no hope, so he said to his father-in-law Long Zhuangye, who was also anxious, I will go back to my parents' house to find it now.

It's so late, you should have gone a long time ago. Long Zhuangye said, turned around and called Xiao Wu in the search team, and asked him to go out of the mountain and arrange a car to send Cheng Shenggui to her hometown in Chengjiazhuang in the countryside to visit and see if the child was there.

Xiao Wu agreed, and Cheng Shenggui and him went out of the forest first. Xiao Wu, who could drive, started a Santana sedan that he had started to park on the side of the road, and rode Cheng Shenggui along the highway illuminated by the headlights, driving towards the distant place where the mountains and rivers were shrouded in night.

At 2 o'clock in the morning, Cheng Xinxiong, who was asleep, was suddenly woken up by his wife Wen Xiaozhen and said Xinxiong! It seems that Shenggui has returned and is knocking on the door. Cheng Xinxiong rubbed his sleepy eyes, because he heard his daughter calling at the door, Mom, Dad, something, something urgent. Cheng Xinxiong immediately sat up from the bed and replied, Sheng Gui, why are you coming home so late? What happened?

Is your grandson Fangxiang coming? An unfamiliar male voice asked.

No, I don't. Wen Xiaozhen, who had already turned on the light, replied.

Mom, then you and Dad don't have to get up, we'll leave right away. Cheng Shenggui outside the door said so.

Which are you coming from? Why isn't it Long Qiyun?

It was my father-in-law who arranged for Xiaolong, the director of his company's office, to drive me here. Long Qiyun went on a business trip and didn't return. After school this afternoon, Fang Xiang didn't go home, and the people in the father-in-law's unit and I couldn't find it everywhere, so I found here, and since she didn't come, I'll go. Cheng Shenggui, who told the reason, was a little choked up.

Did Aroma go to another relative's house? For example, her aunt's house and aunt's house in the city. Wen Xiaozhen, who said this, had already opened the door, and a beam of light reflected Cheng Shenggui's tear-stained face, as well as Xiao Wu's frowning face.

No. Someone was sent to investigate. Cheng Shenggui wiped a handful of tears and said.

At this time, Cheng Xinxiong put on his clothes and came out, and when he heard that his grandson was missing, he was very anxious, but he told his daughter not to worry, saying that he would go to Shi Zaitian, who had magical powers, to ask, maybe Shi Zaitian could tell the whereabouts of his grandson.

Daddy Cheng, where does Shi Zaitian live? I'll drive you there. Xiao Wu, who was standing at the door, said, and reached out to pinch the car keys in his purse.

Shi Zaitian lives in Xianrendong Village, Lion Town, Qianshan County, and there are still dozens of kilometers away from me, so I will drive me there. Cheng Xinxiong said as he looked at the hazy field in the night.

There was a black shadow there, Cheng Shenggui shone it with a flashlight, and the black shadow disappeared suddenly, revealing a black Santana car.

The three of them walked over together, and Wen Xiaozhen stood at the door and watched them get into the car until the car started. She watched the brightly lit car drive out of the village, but her heart kept hanging, and she kept asking secretly: Can they find their missing grandson this time?

After Shi Zaitian retired from the provincial medical university, he lived in the city for a while, and then went to the countryside for a while. Late that night, Cheng Xinxiong and his daughter rushed to Xianrendong Village in a Santana car driven by Xiao Wu, and Shi Zaitian was not at home.

At that time, it was already dawn, Xiao Wu according to Cheng Xinxiong's intentions, refueled the car, too early, and then drove in the direction of the provincial capital, and at 10 o'clock in the morning, he came to the provincial medical university. After parking the car, Cheng Xinxiong and his entourage came to the faculty dormitory building of the college where Shi Zaitian lived. After inquiring, I learned that Shi Zaitian lived on the fifth floor of the third unit.

Cheng Xinxiong asked his daughter and Xiao Wu to wait downstairs, and he went upstairs to see Shi Zaitian. But when he rang the doorbell at the door of Shi Zaitian's house, it was a woman with a round face and a slightly chubby door who opened the door, and stared at Cheng Xinxiong with strange eyes and asked, who are you looking for?

If you are in a hurry, find Professor Shi. Cheng Xinxiong replied anxiously.

He couldn't find it now, he was meditating, waiting for half an hour at least and two hours at most. Just stand at the door and wait! When he wakes up, I'll open the door and call you. The woman spoke crisply, in a low voice, and then gently closed the door.

Cheng Xinxiong said anxiously, can you wake up Professor Shi? He asked this because he thought of the safety of his granddaughter, who had not returned overnight.

Unexpectedly, the closed door opened a crack gently, revealing a pair of women with slightly frowning eyes shaking her hands inside, and whispering, impossible, Professor Shi is in a settling place, so he can't be disturbed. You can wait, you can wait, if you can't, you can go!

Seeing that the woman spoke politely, Cheng Xinxiong really wanted to leave, but in order to ask about the whereabouts of his missing granddaughter, he still endured it. Seeing that the door was gently closed again, Cheng Xinxiong's somewhat unsettled heart also calmed down, he stood slowly outside the door for a while, and then went down to the first floor and told his daughter and Xiao Wu to wait patiently.

Unbeknownst to outsiders, Shi Zaitian, who had already settled in the house, had left his body and wandered to a street called Taohuawu in the Song Dynasty, where he saw a pair of fashionably dressed young men and women walking hand in hand towards the north of the street, where was the end of the street and connected to an orchard.

It's early summer here, and the orchards are full of plum trees, and the branches of the trees are hung with heavy plums, some are red and white, some are white and yellow, and some are still cute and green.

When the young man and woman entered the orchard, they let go of their hands, and instead looked up at each other's ripe plums on the trees.

Suddenly, the woman looked at a flower-winged bird, resting on the wild branch of a tall plum tree and pecking at a ripe yellow-skinned plum.

She slapped her face, "Hi", and the flower-winged bird flew away in fright. The man looked at the woman and said, Ma Shuqin, why did you drive the bird away? The woman smiled slightly and said, I am teasing the bird, how do I know that it is afraid and flappes its wings and flies? Alas, Liu Yuanlin, I want to eat plums that have been pecked by birds but have not been pecked from the branches.

Shuqin, the bird pecked, what's delicious? Why don't I climb up a tree and pick a few plums for you that the bird hasn't pecked and give you to eat. Liu Yuanlin said flatteringly.

Then you are wrong, I feel that the plums that birds have pecked are the sweetest plums, otherwise, will birds peck them? Ma Shuqin gave the reason.

Liu Yuanlin felt that it made sense, so he followed her, then I will climb on the wild branch of the old plum tree and pick some plums that have been pecked by birds with you to eat!

Ma Shuqin nodded, and Liu Yuanlin came to the root of the old plum tree, ready to climb up, and saw that there was a black locust next to the old plum tree, and its leafy side was touching a bunch of yellow-skinned and fragrant plums on the wild branches of the old plum tree.

He walked over, climbed up from the foot of the locust tree, climbed to the top, stretched out his hand to pick the plums on the branches of the plum tree, and threw them at Ma Shuqin, who was looking at him under the tree, and said, This is the plum that the bird has pecked, and it is the sweetest plum, Shuqin, you pick it up and eat it!

I washed it before eating. Ma Shuqin, who replied like this, put the plums she picked from the grass into her pocket.

Shuqin, I ate the peaches you picked last time, and you eat the plums I picked this time. This is called giving it a peach and repaying it with a plum. Liu Yuanlin, who was lying on the locust tree, almost plucked all the plums from the wild branches of the plum tree, and his mouth was still full of emotion.

Great. Ma Shuqin responded, looked up, and saw that Liu Yuanlin had jumped from the side of the black locust tree to the wild branch of the plum tree, stood up straight and said happily, Shuqin, do you think I can do it? I'm going to come down from the plum tree. As soon as he finished saying this, he fluttered, and Liu Yuanlin, who had not stepped on it or grasped it firmly, fell down from a wild branch more than two feet high, and the locust tree and the plum tree shook as if they were frightened.

Before it subsided, Liu Yuanlin's body smashed under the roots of the plum tree with a "bang", and the yellowed plum on the plum tree tripped over a stubble.

Ma Shuqin was in no mood to pay attention, and only looked at Liu Yuanlin, who was covered in blood and fell heavily to the ground in horror. Liu Yuanlin's stomach, which was unbearable to look at, was broken by the branches on the plum tree, and the intestines inside flowed out, accompanied by a pool of blood.
