Chapter 9 Security

A dreamless night.

But when he woke up, Zhou Ang felt that something was wrong.

After a long pause, he realized that it was still dark - but there was no alarm clock or cell phone, so he had no way of knowing what time it was.

Moreover, although he could see the position of the moon from the window, the long city life and the easy availability of accurate time made it impossible for him to judge anything based on the position of the moon.

All he knew was that there was silence outside the window at the moment.

If you listen carefully, there is a subtle sound of wind, and there seems to be a faint chirping of insects.

He took a deep breath and suddenly came to his senses.

It was his first sleep since he had traveled to this new world, and it didn't seem to have been a long sleep, at least not the slightest hint of dawn outside.

But at this moment, he was really completely sober.

The stomach is full, and there is still some fishy smell in the mouth, which is faintly smelly.

In the days of the Zhou family, of course, I can't afford to buy green salt to rinse my mouth and wipe my teeth.

Zhou Ang sighed slowly, and when his eyes were basically adjusted to the darkness in the room, he carefully and cautiously scanned the room again, confirming that there was indeed no one except himself, and then he breathed a sigh of relief, and his body gradually relaxed.

At this time, he gradually understood: he should have been woken up by subconscious worry!

He was really afraid that the fox demon would suddenly kill him!

Because there is almost no resistance.

He closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, then suddenly opened them - there was still no one in the room.

His body finally really relaxed, and gradually collapsed, staring wide-eyed at the darkness that was completely invisible on the roof, and somehow remembered things in his heart:

It's already summer, and you have to find a way to put the roof on the side of the mud in a few days, otherwise a rainstorm will fall, and the house will leak so much that it can't be lived.

The weather is starting to get hot, sometimes cloudy and sometimes rainy, these days you have to remind your mother to prepare more firewood, and the sun will be pulled out and spread out to dry, so as not to rain for a few days in a row, and the house can't even boil the pot water.

By the way, there's still a bottom left in the tank, so let's go pick up water tomorrow.

Maybe it's already today.

I don't know if the eldest brother can ask for any good work.

But...... None of that matters!

The important thing is where to find that middle-aged man, he is completely at a loss and has no clue!

He suddenly lifted the quilt and sat up, feeling a little inexplicably irritable in his heart, so he turned over, groped, pulled on his shoes, walked a few steps in the room, simply opened the door carefully, opened the door of the hall again, and walked into the courtyard - he has been taught by his parents since he was a child to take things into account and not to be in a hurry again, so for so many years, he is used to taking precautions to deal with everything.

But this incident alone made him a little panicked for the first time.

There is a feeling that there is nowhere to exert power.

But that person must be found! or he may really die!

He tugged on his shoes, walked back and forth in the yard a few times, went into the kitchen, found the scoop, came out and lifted the cylinder head, scooped half a scoop of water, and rinsed his mouth regardless of whether it was hot or cold.

As he rinsed his mouth, feeling the cold water running between his tongue, he carefully reflected on what he had done in the past day—especially the process of finding people in Sogo and Koshou.

The idea is definitely right, and the process is meticulous, but people just haven't found it.

What to do?

He suppressed his voice, squirted mouthwash out of his mouth, and sighed.

Go again tomorrow!

Or Sogo and Koshou!

Because these two places have the most foot traffic. The former is aimed at locals, while the latter is mainly a migrant population.

If you still can't find it tomorrow...... Then look again!

Three days, yes, at least three days, just keep an eye on these two squares!

But if you can't find it for three days, and there is not the slightest possible clue, then you can't go dark on this road, and the next goal is to put it in the Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in the city.

Nowadays, temples and Taoist temples also receive guests to stay, as long as you give enough money, you are also a pilgrim if you don't burn incense. It is even said that there are hundreds of guest houses in Baoguo Temple, and the room fee is not cheap, but it is often difficult to find a room. In fact, Baoguo Temple has done more business, and it is not only the inn.

Therefore, there is often a lot of traffic there, and you have to go to find someone.

And...... What you have to think about is, what if you end up searching everywhere and still can't find the person you're looking for?

Again, Buddhist temples and Taoist temples are often better at dealing with some strange and chaotic things!

Just while looking for someone, I inquired, there will always be a way!

After thinking about it, another mouthful of water squirted out, and feeling that the smell in his mouth was gone, he got up and put the scoop back in the kitchen, and went back to the bedroom to lie down lightly, forcing himself to close his eyes.

Sleep, must sleep!

There's nothing terrible about dying in the hands of the fox demon, it's a shame to be scared to death by her!

............

As soon as it was dawn, Zhou Ang got up.

After washing, he started boxing very seriously in the yard, and it was not until he played Tai Chi a few times that his mother and sister got up, and they were a little surprised to see him get up so early.

Zhou Ang looked light and light, and said with a smile: "I don't know if it's because I'm sick and refreshed, I felt a lot less sick yesterday, so I feel that I am very energetic, and today I am even more energetic." ”

So his mother and sister laughed at his plausible nonsense.

After the family had breakfast, and his mother and sister went out to wash their clothes as usual, Zhou Ang went out again, ready to pick up the places he had found yesterday one by one and finely.

On this day, however, he went out from the beginning of the sun, and did not return home until about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, when he expected that his mother and sister were also returning, but he found nothing.

Sogo Fang searched again, asked everywhere, Guangshoufang's inns, restaurants, and tea shops asked one by one, he even asked about the major stores, but no one had seen the person he described.

I subconsciously thought about whether to post a missing person notice or something, and even thought about the beginning of the manuscript, but then I was rejected by the memory in my mind - in the Tang Kingdom, no one dared to post a notice that had been printed without the approval of the yamen, as long as it was caught, it was a felony in the flail!

When he returned home and waited for dinner, he still had to find a way to explain to his mother that he hadn't studied at home for the past two days, and why he was going out - fortunately, he had always been honest and never told nonsense, and his mother Zhou Cai would not suspect it.

After the family had "lunch", his mother and sister were busy again, and Zhou Ang ran back to his house and began to practice calligraphy.

In the evening, his uncle Zhou Ye came as promised.
