Chapter Twenty-Three: The Search

Wen Linfeng seemed to be ten years old all of a sudden, turned his head to look at Xu Miao, who was leaning on Duo'er, and said to Wen Cheng, "Miao'er is still alive, she is your fiancΓ©e after all, you take care of her more." Go back and find a good doctor to show her, if it can be cured, it will be lucky, if it can't be cured, alas, ......"

Seeing Xu Miao become like this, Wen Cheng had a fierce anger in his heart, but unfortunately now he couldn't even find the murderer, so he had nowhere to vent his fierce anger. Now I can only settle Xu Miao first, and then talk about anything else.

"Don't worry, Dad, I'll take care of her, I'll take her back to settle down now. ”

Wen Linfeng didn't speak, just nodded silently, and under the distraction of his mind, he felt tired even to speak.

Wencheng took Xu Miao from Duo'er and helped her into the carriage.

"Second Prince Wen, please stay. ”

Wencheng was about to get into the carriage and leave, when a catcher stopped him. Wen Cheng remembered that the head catcher was surnamed Lin, and Mu was a good friend with him before his death.

"Lin Zhutou, what's the matter?"

Lin Zhutou is in his forties, and his height is shorter than Wencheng, perhaps because of his martial arts training, and his figure is very strong.

"Childe, can you take a step to speak?"

Wen Cheng nodded and followed Lin Zhutou to a sheltered corner.

"Childe, I think what happened to the city lord's family is too strange. ”

"What did Lin Zhutou find, please tell me directly?"

Wen Cheng naturally knew that what happened to the city lord's family was strange, but this was not something that an ordinary head catcher could know, so Wen Cheng wanted to hear what Lin Zhutou said, and maybe he could get some information from him.

"Last time in Songjiazhuang, I led the team to the yamen. At that time, the death of those villagers was exactly the same as that of the current place, Childe, do you say that these two things were committed by the same murderer?"

How could Wencheng forget about Songjiazhuang, he wanted to listen to the situation at that time, but unfortunately the yamen blocked the news tightly, and he didn't find any useful news. Later, Xu Miao mentioned a few words to him a few days ago, but Xu Miao was also unclear about the specific situation, and his words were intermittent and unknown. Unexpectedly, Lin Zhutou was a person who had personally experienced the Songjiazhuang incident, and Wencheng suddenly became interested in wanting to know.

"Can Lin Zhutou tell me about the situation in Songjiazhuang at that time?"

"This ......"

Lin Zhutou was a little hesitant, but he thought about it, it had been so long, and there was nothing to tell Wencheng, so he told Wencheng what he had done in Songjiazhuang.

According to Lin Zhutou, when they arrived in Songjiazhuang, there was not a single living person in the whole village, and many of them died in a similar manner to the people in the current city lord's mansion, all of whom were drowned in the water. This is also the reason why Lin Zhutou feels a little scared, he is afraid that it is the thing in Songjiazhuang that will take revenge.

"At that time, we were checking on the dead people at the edge of Songjiazhuang, and it turned out that a monster with a whole body green ran out, and it was a burst of indiscriminate killing that killed three people. Fortunately, the city lord's Daoist friend reacted in time to stop the monster, and was finally blown up into a puddle of dark green mud by the Daoist with a yellow thing, which stinked incomparably. ”

Wen Cheng listened carefully to Lin Zhutou's narration, this Taoist should be the one Xu Miao talked about. He remembered that Xu Miao had talked about this long road, and it seemed that after Songjiazhuang, he did not return to Tieshan City, but left directly. He asked suspiciously, "Since the monsters were all killed, why did that Dao Master leave?"

"I don't know, I was standing behind the Taoist chief at that time, and I only heard him say Guanglin or something, so I left without looking back. He didn't even respond when we called him. ”

According to the information provided by Lin Zhutou, since this Songjiazhuang is a real monster, then this city lord's mansion is probably also a monster, and it has nothing to do with Songjiazhuang.

Wencheng wants to take revenge, and Songjiazhuang should be able to find some clues, but he doesn't know if these monsters are still there.

"Thank you, Lin Zhutou. ”

Wencheng took Xu Miao back to the house, and asked Duo'er to arrange for someone to clean her and give her a clean set of clothes.

Three days later.

Wencheng sat with the six doctors in the living room.

In three days, Wencheng invited a famous doctor in the city to see Xu Miao. If one can't do it, please two, if two can't ask three, until now, Wencheng has invited all the six most famous doctors to his home to see Xu Miao.

The six doctors discussed for a long time, but they did not come up with a single result.

"Second son, it's not that we don't do our best. It's really Miss Xu's illness, and we really can't do anything about it. City Lord Xu is also a good official, but as long as we have the slightest way, we will go all out to save Miss Xu, but ...... Alas!"

Wen Cheng knew exactly how difficult the mental illness was, in fact, he knew that this would be the result when the first doctor had no choice. It's just that he always has a trace of luck and hope in his heart, but unfortunately now the six doctors have directly dashed his hope.

"Is there nothing there can do?"

"We can only prescribe a calming way, let Miss Xu eat and try it first, and wait for a miracle to appear......"

"Thank you very much for the past few days, please go to the account office to get the medical fee. ”

"Second son Xie. ”

As soon as the six doctors bowed their hands to Wencheng, they left here one after another.

Wen Cheng returned to his room, where Duo'er was staying with Xu Miao and playing a child's game of stretching silk threads.

Since Xu Miao was brought back by Wencheng, Xu Miao would only be quiet when Duo'er stayed by her side. Whether Duo'er leaves her, or other people, including Wencheng, approach her, they will stimulate her to yell. For this reason, Wencheng simply asked Duo'er to accompany Xu Miao all day long.

Quietly exiting from the room, Wencheng went to find his father.

"Dad, Uncle is also here. ”

Wen Cheng was in Wen Linfeng's study and met his uncle. Wen Lynch was not wearing armor today, but in civilian clothes. When Wen Cheng came in, he was sitting next to Wen Linfeng, and the two didn't know what they were talking about.

"Cheng'er, is there anything wrong with you?"

"Dad, I want to ask, do you have any clues about the murderer who killed the entire family of the city lord of Xu?"

"Alas," Wen Linfeng sighed, stood up and paced, "I was still discussing with your uncle what to do next, I searched for three days and turned the entire Iron Mountain City upside down, but there was no clue at all." ”

"Dad, uncle. I think it's weird, it's not like it's a human hand. ”

"Why do you have a clue?" Wen Linfeng hurriedly asked.

"There are no exact clues, but ......" Wen Cheng said the information Xu Miao had told him, as well as the information he had obtained from Lin Zhutou, "I always feel that this Iron Mountain City is becoming more and more wrong, as if some great disaster is about to happen." ”

After listening to Wen Cheng's words, Wen Linfeng fell into deep thought and did not speak.

Wen Lynch put down the teacup in his hand and took out a booklet from his clothes.

"Cheng'er, look at this. ”

The cover of the booklet was pitch black, and there was not even a single handwriting on it.

"What is this?"

Wen Cheng picked up the booklet and asked suspiciously.

"This is the patrol news of the Sentinels. ”

The local garrison is also a military force, and it will also regularly organize sentinel patrols around the garrison. Of course, the sentinels of this kind of local garrison are much worse than the real army, but they are enough to patrol the place.

Wencheng opened the booklet.

...... "On July 14, someone in Songjiazhuang disappeared, and there was no trace, and the search was fruitless. ”

Wencheng didn't look at the previous information, and jumped directly to start from Songjiazhuang.

......On the seventh day of the eighth month, it was rumored that there was a night cry in Baishu Village, and 12 villagers disappeared that night. ”

...... "On the twenty-fifth of August, it was rumored that a carriage was seen in the wilderness, and all four of them were mad. ”

...... "On the tenth day of the ninth month, it is rumored that someone in Baishi Village heard a knock on the door at night, and the whole family died tragically at home that night, shattered, as if attacked by wild beasts. ”

......

Wen Cheng looked at the record in the booklet, and his face became darker and darker the more he looked at it. The time recorded in the booklet has continued to the present, there are a total of more than a dozen similar strange information, the location of the accident is in the southeast, northwest and northwest of Tieshan City, the total number of missing and dead people is more than a hundred, plus the people in Songjiazhuang and the City Lord's Mansion, the number of dead and missing people directly exceeds two hundred.

I don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it. Wen Cheng thought that the strange thing was just the time when Song Jiazhuang and him had encountered, but he didn't expect it to become so frequent around Iron Mountain City. Closing the booklet in his hand and returning it to the uncle, Wen Cheng said with a solemn expression: "Dad, I'm afraid that Tieshan City is no longer safe, we have to make plans early." ”

"I see, you go down first. ”

Wen Cheng saw that his father wanted to discuss things with his uncle, and he couldn't continue to stay there, so he had to temporarily give up his plan to persuade his father.

However, although Wencheng gave up persuading his father, there were some things he still had to do, such as finding out the monster that killed Xu Miao's family and killing him to take revenge.

Of course, just in case, he had to find someone.

Wen Cheng stood in the alley where Shangguan Yan lived, standing in the place where Shangguan Yan took him back in a carriage last time, and found that there was no trace of the mansion where Shangguan Yan lived. He remembered very well that it was here that he got off the carriage, but now it was two strange houses next to each other, and the original house had disappeared without a trace.

Wencheng came unrelentingly, in the flower building where he traded internal strength cheats last time.

"Second son, the girl you are looking for is not from our Hualou, she has already left. The last time you left on the front foot, the girl on the back foot left, and I made a few of my high rollers lose their souls for days, I remember it very well. ”

Wencheng spent a lot of silver and got the news of Shangguan Yan from the old bustard. Sure enough, this Shangguan Yan is a bad taste, she deliberately asked him to come to Hualou to trade last time, but she didn't live in Hualou for a day at all.

Wencheng didn't know if Shangguan Yan really left, or if he hid and deliberately didn't see him. Whatever the case, it meant that his plan to use the silver to ask Shangguan Yan to help him avenge him had failed.

Sure enough, is it relying on everyone to go?

It seems that the only thing you can rely on is modifiers and skill points, and beyond that, no one can rely on you.

didn't find Shangguan Yan, Wencheng was also determined to break into Songjiazhuang by himself. A friend invited by Xu Miao's father was able to get out of Songjiazhuang, and he didn't think he couldn't do it. After all, if Xu Cheng was really able to invite some great masters, his whole family would not suffer such a catastrophe. Most of this Dao chief is just a good hand at cultivating internal qi, even if his cultivation is higher than his own, he can't be much higher.

His fiancΓ©e was frightened crazy, and if he didn't take revenge, he was depressed and difficult to get through.

Wencheng returned home, told Hao Duo'er to take good care of Xu Miao, and told the family that he was going out for a walk. So he put on a fur coat alone, rode a horse and rushed towards Songjiazhuang, although Tieshan City was closed, but he would definitely not be allowed to leave the city. The young general guarding the city gate confirmed Wencheng's identity and opened the city gate to let him out.
