When everyone, including Wen's, scattered in a panic, and when all the candles and lights had gradually faded away with the chaotic voices, the main hall of Huichun Courtyard was once again shrouded in darkness and silence, leaving only a little moonlight reflected next to the door faintly revealing two dim lights.

I don't know how long it took, maybe it didn't take much time, but the sound of "......" sounded in the room, which was particularly obvious in the silent main hall.

Then, the coffin board on the coffin containing Li Mingming's coffin in the main hall ......was slowly pushed open by a small hand, and a small round head poked out.

The little guy saw that the room was pitch black, and it was obvious that everyone had gone, so he didn't rush to climb down, but sighed softly, and then the little adult shook his head and said to himself, "I said, why are you so stupid?"

"Why didn't anyone think I'd lie down with my eldest brother?"

"Didn't I hide from your eldest brother's bed before, didn't you find it for a long time?"

"But it's not your fault...... This should be the little master, I'm too smart, you can't do anything about me...... Hee-hee......"

The little guy shook his little head triumphantly again, secretly rejoicing for a long time.

Just waiting for him to calm down, looking left and right, how do you feel that the room is suddenly a little silent......

Suddenly, he felt a wave of fear welling up in his heart, and he was ready to get up and climb down the coffin and get out of here as soon as possible......

But at this moment, he suddenly felt a cold and piercing arm clamp around his body like steel, and pressed himself into the coffin. Then his eyes, mouth and nose were also pressed by a cold palm full of death at the same time, making it difficult for him to breathe.

If someone looked inside the coffin outside, they could clearly see that the mummy-like dried corpse in the coffin seemed to come to life, and pushed the little boy hard against him.

Although the little boy already knew that something was wrong, he kicked his legs with all his might, trying to pull away the arm that was holding his mouth and nose, trying to escape from this terrible place. But because of the small size and weak strength, it didn't take a while for the two little legs to slowly stop struggling, and the small body slowly became stiff and cold.........

The room was once again plunged into eerie darkness and silence.

And not far from the house, I could vaguely hear someone's anxious question, "How is it, have you found the young master?"

"Report to my wife, I didn't find ...... there"

"Report to Mrs., we have also looked for the other side of the garden, but we have not ......"

"There is no ...... in the little master's room."

"Where will Zhi'er go......?

"Go, keep looking for me until you find it. If you can't find it, don't sleep..."

.........

When the last trace of darkness of the night was dispelled by the light of the morning light, when the Great Elder and other high-ranking members of the Li family were secretly glad that there was no missing person report last night, they saw the head of the family, Li Batian, come over with a gloomy face and say that his youngest son had disappeared since last night......

When a large group of people gathered around the head of the family and the great elder into the Huichun Garden, they saw the pale and haggard Wen sitting in front of the hall with his temples pressed, angry at a group of dejected and listless servants.

"Why can't there be? It's not a cat or a mouse, so how can a person of that size not be able to find it?"

"The guards at the door all said that Zhi'er didn't go out!"

"It must be that you didn't look for it seriously! Zhi'er must be hiding somewhere, you didn't find it......"

"Go, go find me right away!"

"What are you doing with you shit, it's useless!"

"If I can't find you, don't sleep or eat!

"I can't find ...... anymore If I can't find you, don't live!

Wen screamed hysterically, his eyes bloodshot and glared viciously at the gang in front of him. Subconsciously, I felt that it must be these evil slaves and slaves who bully the masters, it must be that they didn't seriously look for Zhi'er, so Zhi'er couldn't find it.

Li Batian walked into the main hall, patted Wen's shoulder comfortingly, and comforted, "Don't be anxious first, madam, let's ask ...... together."

Then Li Batian and the Great Elder separately inquired about the servants who went out to find them. The two pondered for a long time, and when they looked at each other, they heard Li Batian say with a wry smile, "It seems that the problem is not here......"

The servants also relaxed a little, they had been running all night, and they had carefully searched every corner, even the lakeside on the other side of the garden, and indeed they had not found it.

I just heard my wife's frantic speech, and it was false to say that she was not worried. They were also worried that they would bear the unwarranted disaster and be directly killed by their wives on trumped-up charges. But as a servant, you are a dog by the master's side, and even if the master wants you to die immediately, you can only accept your fate......

Li Batian and the Great Elder paced back and forth in the room, frowning and thinking about what the problem was. Wen, on the other hand, looked at them with a gloomy face, and no one in the room spoke, only the sound of two people pacing back and forth.

Suddenly, as if he remembered something, the Great Elder stopped and asked in a deep voice, "Wen, when did you say Zhi'er disappeared?"

"Think about it again and repeat it well!"

Wen Shi didn't speak immediately when he heard this, he walked to the door and waved, "Mama Gu, come in!"

Then a middle-aged woman with a simple bun entered and stood behind Wen, who had re-seated.

Wen glanced sideways at Mama Gu, and then recalled to the Great Elder and her husband, "Last night, I, Zhi'er, and a few of Tian'er's concubines were burning paper for Tian'er here......

Wen's dry voice sounded in the room, Mama Gu stood aside, Wen remembered something unclear or omitted, and she would also help to supplement it. She is the nurse of Wen's two sons, and has always won Wen's trust and reuse.

"Stop ......" The Great Elder heard something and directly stopped Wen's narration.

"You said, it's because you smashed the teapot on the concubine's forehead, and Zhi'er was still in the house at that time?"

Wen's face was confused, and he didn't seem to remember much. Mama Gu on the side replied affirmatively, "Yes, the Great Elder, the slave and maid were next to me at that time, and I saw the little young master spinning around the table......"

The Great Elder, Li Batian, and Wen all looked over to Grandma Gu and saw her calm. So the Great Elder continued to ask thoughtfully, "Then, the teapot fell into the back room of the brazier and went dark for a while.........

He pondered for a long time, as if pondering something.

"After it was dark for a while, did you still see the little master?"

Wen looked at Mama Gu and motioned for her to answer, she had no impression at all.

Mama Gu also seemed to think about it for a while, and shook her head affirmatively, "No, it seems that after that while, the little master hasn't seen it again......"

Hearing this, Li Batian, the Great Elder, and the Wen family seemed to be attracted by this answer, and Li Batian couldn't wait to confirm again, "Is it confirmed that after that moment, Zhi'er will be gone?"

This time, Mama Gu seemed to think for a little longer, and then shook her head resolutely, "Yes, it was for a while, and I haven't seen the little master again!"

Li Batian waved his hand and asked Mama Gu to retreat.

Mama Gu retreated outside the house again, and the group of servants were still waiting outside, and none of them dared to go down to rest without the master's order.
