At the end of the day, Zhang Ling has not returned.

But Xu Yang knew that Zhang Ling was not the kind of person who would be late, and there might be some reason for delay.

It's a pity that there are no mobile phones and no wx in this era, otherwise a phone call will know what is going on.

"Wait until the evening to see."

Xu Yang sat in front of the door and waited for Zhang Ling, but Zhang Ling didn't come back late at night.

Seeing that Zhang Ling would definitely not be able to come back at night, Xu Yang rested, and the next morning, Xu Yang waited for Zhang Ling early, but he didn't come back until noon.

"Strange!"

At this time, even Xu Yang felt strange, Zhang Ling had always been punctual and obedient.

Suddenly, a panicked figure climbed up, and he said loudly: "Which one, which one is the head of Xu Cell?" ”

"I'm the head of Xu Cell, who are you!?"

"Xu Jiaotou, I am a fellow villager of Zhang Ling, he sent me to bring you a word."

"Zhang Ling?" Xu Yang frowned and said: "I allowed him a week off, now that the vacation has passed, he should have come back yesterday, what is going on now." ”

Zhang Ling's fellow villager spoke: "Boss Xu, Zhang Ling asked me to tell you that he is not coming back, he said that it is too hard to be an errand here, and he has found another errand, so that you don't worry about him." ”

Xu Yang is even more strange, Zhang Ling is doing a good job here, how can he say that he won't do it if he doesn't do it?

And it's not in line with the rules.

Even if the jailers are only hired externally and do not even have an establishment, it is impossible to say that they will not do anything, and their resignation must be approved by the warden in charge before they can be released.

And Zhang Ling has always done well, and his popularity here is also good, he has never been disgusted.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!

Xu Yang frowned slightly and looked at the man in front of him and said, "You tell me the truth, what the hell is going on with Zhang Ling, what about others!" ”

"This is not a place to come and go!"

"If he does this, he will be arrested and questioned, and you will be punished for the crime of harboring!"

The man was so frightened by Xu Yang that he squeaked and said: "I'm really just a fellow villager of Zhang Ling, I met him when he came home a few days ago, and then I heard that he was busy with the renovation of his home, saying that he made money in prison." ”

"Then I saw him yesterday, but he seemed to be in a bad state of mind, and he was still in high spirits when he came home......"

"He gave me half a tael of silver for me to inform you...... My lord, I know so much, I really didn't lie to you, if I have half a lie, I am willing to be punished. ”

Xu Yang stared at the man with a cold face for a long time, and although the man's eyes were afraid, he did not hide, proving that what he said was true.

"Where is Zhang Ling's hometown, you take me there, I want to ask him personally!"

Judging from Zhang Ling's performance combined with what this man said, I am afraid that there is something unspeakable, and others will just stop Zhang Ling, this child, Xu Yang still likes it to some extent, and decided to take care of this idle matter.

If he really has a good place to go, he won't stop him, but the process that should be taken has to be followed, otherwise he is the one who is responsible.

is reasonable, and you have to go through this experience.

"We live in Wufang Village in Shifang City, and I'll take you there."

Xu Yang greeted the jailer, and if Jiang Dianjiao suddenly asked, he said that he would go to another lock demon prison, don't talk too much.

Of course, these jailers also listened to Xu Yang, and if Zhang Ling didn't come back, they wouldn't have a chance to be lazy, and everyone promised not to say a word.

Xu Yang followed Zhang Ling's fellow villagers, if he hadn't walked too slowly, Wufang Village would definitely not have taken three hours.

"Which family is Zhang Ling's home?"

Zhang Ling's fellow villager spoke: "My lord, you go ahead, their house is being renovated, you can see it at a glance...... I'll go back first. ”

Xu Yang nodded and let him go, and then met Zhang Ling's parents.

Zhang Ling's parents were skinny and malnourished, and their family was much more modest than the rest of the village.

However, now a lot of cement bricks are piled aside, bricklayers and carpenters are renovating the house, although Zhang Ling's parents are thin, but the joy on their faces cannot be hidden.

"The two of you are Zhang Ling's parents!"

Xu Yang stepped forward and asked.

The two turned to look at Xu Yang, Zhang Ling's father looked at Xu Yang, who was wearing a Tibetan cotton robe and looked elegant, and wondered in his heart, he didn't know such a son-in-law at home.

He then said, "Are you?" ”

"I'm Zhang Ling's boss, my name is Xu Yang, he should have gone back to the prison yesterday, but he hasn't gone back until today, I'm here to check."

"Oh!" The two looked at Xu Yang in surprise and said, "You are the head of Xu Cell mentioned by Zhang Ling, Lord Xu, our son is on an errand with you, thanks to your care......"

Xu Yang waved his hand to tell the two of them not to say so many polite words, and now the key to the problem is where Zhang Ling is!

Zhang Ling's father said: "Zhang Ling left early yesterday morning, didn't he go back!?" ”

"Sure enough!"

"Zhang Ling must have had an accident, but for various reasons he can't say that he had an accident, is the appearance of a fellow villager a distress signal?"

"No, maybe it's a reminder that I'm in danger!?"

Xu Yang lowered his head and thought, and Zhang Ling's mother on the side shouted twice, and Xu Yang reacted.

"Xu... My lord, what's wrong with Zhang Ling? Didn't something happen to him? ”

"No, there isn't."

Xu Yang smiled: "Your son is great, he is very serious and diligent, he is very good, by the way, he has not been at home since he came back?" Or has anyone ever come to him? ”

Zhang Ling's parents struggled to recall: "It seems that I have never been out...... Our son doesn't have any friends here......

"That's right!" Zhang Ling's father suddenly said: "He went out once the day before yesterday, as if he said that he was going to the mountain temple......

"Adult ......"

Zhang Ling's father looked at Xu Yang, but where was Xu Yang's shadow here, as early as the moment he heard the mountain temple, Xu Yang had already performed light skills and jumped out.

Mountain Temple, when the man from the same township as Zhang Ling came over, Xu Yang saw that temple.

The temple is not big, it is very dilapidated, it looks like a dilapidated temple that has fallen into disrepair and no one cares about, what can Zhang Ling do when he goes to this uninhabited temple!?

After a while, Xu Yang came to the outside of the mountain temple.

"Sure enough, there is a problem!"

The outside of the mountain temple was overgrown with weeds, and Xu Yang was keenly aware of the traces of some weeds being trampled, with many footprints and different sizes.

"There must be someone in there!"

Xu Yang looked at the dilapidated temple gate with a grim face, and walked slowly inside.

As soon as he walked into the temple, Xu Yang saw Zhang Ling sitting on the side, his hair was scattered, his eyes were dull, and he was in a trance.

"Boss Xu?"

Zhang Ling also noticed Xu Yang, he stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes, he didn't understand why Xu Yang appeared here, didn't he bring his words to that fellow countryman!?
