Chapter 4: The Legend of Cats and Ghosts (64) - Missing Children

ā˜†ā˜†ā˜†

Bai Tang had already hugged his fists here, and he was very affectionate to Hong Qili, and said: "I have long admired the name of the beggar gang leader Hong! Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info beggars help disciples all over the world, and now with the help of the Hong gang master, it will be twice the result with half the effort. ā€

Hong Qili hurriedly bowed and replied: "I am entrusted by Mr. An Le, and I have been personally recommended by the prince, so I should do my best to assist God to catch the lord! I hope to capture the gangsters as soon as possible and rescue those missing children!"

Hong Qili often visited Mr. Shao Yong in Luoyang to ask for advice on gossip. Now Shao Yong's friend Zhou Dunyi's young son has lost to Beijing, and recently there have been rumors in Beijing, all of which are rumors that cats and ghosts have mutilated young children. Shao Yong asked the beggar gang leader to think of a way to save the child as soon as possible.

Shen Yu remembered that Fang Cai Baitang mentioned that there were also some people from the rivers and lakes who disappeared, and now that the prince had brought him here, did he have this consideration?

Hong Qili really brought the exact news. And this news was obtained from Ning Yifei and the young man named Yin Chen in the Underworld Palace.

It turned out that Ning Yifei and Yin Chen hid the tracking of Li Xiucai and the amazing events that happened next. This was mainly Yin Chen's idea, he dissuaded Ning Yifei and asked him not to tell Li Xiucai's wife the truth. Because this thing is so appalling that I am afraid that no one will believe it at all.

Ning Yifei was already flustered and had no idea. He felt that what Yin Chen said made some sense, but he felt that if he didn't tell Mrs. Li, he would be very upset. He originally followed there to dissuade Li Xiucai, but the result was that he was in a different place. Yin Chen told him that even if they didn't follow, Li Xiucai would inevitably die.

There is one person in the desert, and there is no need to worry about not being able to dispose of the corpse. Yin Chen quickly dragged the bodies of the big man and Li Xiucai into the thatched house, and then burned the grass house with the two corpses and burned it clean. is really worthy of being a person from the Killer Alliance, and destroying the corpse is really a gesture.

That day, the two of them returned home at almost dawn, so they naturally missed the birthday banquet that Yue Yu'er carefully prepared for Ning Yifei. The next day, Ning Yifei was scolded by Yue Yu'er, and Ning Yifei almost blurted out. Fortunately, Yin Chen's brain turned quickly, made up some good reasons, and coaxed Yue'er for a long time before he was confused.

Yin Chen was afraid that Ning Yifei couldn't help it, and he was entrusted by Ouyang Feng to secretly protect Yue Yu'er, so he stayed at Xiaofei's house. After Li Xiucai disappeared, Li Niangzi quickly reported to the official, and in those days, there were people from Kaifeng Mansion who went to Li Niangzi next door to question, and as a result, Ning Yifei was disturbed and frightened, as if he had done something wrong.

Soon, the news that Lu Gongzi was sucked by the cat ghost spread all over the streets and alleys of the capital. When Yin Chen and Ning Yifei heard the news, the two of them couldn't help but be shocked. They looked at each other and asked each other a question: "In the dark, the woman seems to be ...... Sucked Li Xiucai's blood, right?"

At that time, Yin Chen was just thinking about disposing of the two corpses quickly, where would he think of checking whether Li Xiucai's neck had "cat ghost bite marks". So, of course, the answer to this question is: neither for sure nor for deny!

Ning Yifei often remembered the strange posture of the woman when she left, only to feel that her scalp was numb, and she was soaked with cold.

Later, an astonishing news spread - Pei Yuniang of the embroidery building was the cat ghost who specialized in sucking men's blood!

When Li Niangzi heard those rumors about Pei Yuniang, she immediately ran to Kaifeng Mansion to report to the official. Ning Yifei couldn't sleep, tossed and turned for half the night, and finally made up his mind that if the arresters came to investigate the case this time, he must tell them everything he knew. You can't let the youkai harm more people!

It was also during this period that a series of missing children broke out, and rumors spread everywhere in the capital, and people were panicked. Immediately after the disappearance of the little son of the Zhou family, the catchers of Kaifeng Mansion were already very busy, where could they take care of asking Mrs. Li about it. Ning Yifei waited for a few days, but none of them came to Mrs. Li's house for questioning.

On this day, Yue Yu'er ran back and told Ning Yifei that the Hong gang leader had been entrusted by others to rush to the capital from Luoyang in order to investigate the disappearance of Zhou Xiaogongzi.

Hearing this news, Ning Yifei suddenly opened his mind and scolded himself for being stupid, why didn't he think of the master earlier? Without saying a word, he turned around and ran out, hurriing to the beggars. Yue Yu'er was puzzled by Ning Yifei's strange behavior, and turned her head to ask Yin Chen, "Brother Xiaofei, what's wrong with this recently?" Yin Chen shrugged his shoulders and replied.

In fact, the rumors of the cat ghost made Yue Yu'er very curious, she wanted to go to the grass house in the eastern suburbs first, and ask the well-informed "Ten Grandfathers" to see if he knew about the "cat ghost". Yin Chen wanted to protect her, so he pushed the boat down the river and said that he was also interested in listening to it.

Yue Yu'er looked at them and laughed, what's going on lately? Brother Xiaofei hides himself every day, and Yin Chen sticks to himself every day?

If she couldn't figure it out, she wouldn't think about it. So, the two went to the eastern suburbs.

In the hall of the beggar gang in Kaifeng City, Ning Yifei faced Hong Qili and told what happened that day.

Hong Qili was really taken aback, but he quickly calmed down, asked Ning Yifei some questions, and asked the woman's appearance carefully. He believed that Ning Yifei would never be a child who would lie to him, let alone exaggerate and be alarmist. Nine times out of ten, that woman is the cat ghost that is now spreading in Kaifeng City! She must have used some kind of evil magic to turn Li Xiucai and the farmer into like the living dead. Could it be that he was using poison to inflict Gu Hong Qi locked his eyebrows tightly and was silent in thought. Ning Yifei saw him looking down and thinking about things, but he didn't dare to disturb, just sat quietly on the side.

After thinking for a while, Hong Qi stood up and paced in the room, faintly feeling that this matter was not so simple. He stopped in front of the window and looked out at the courtyard outside, dazed. Mr. An Le entrusted himself to find Zhou Xiaogongzi, regardless of whether this matter is related to the cat ghost or not, but it is a matter of two lives, I am afraid that the Kaifeng Mansion will not be able to get around. When he was in Luoyang, Mr. An Le once said that Lord Zhou had asked Zhao Hao, the king of Chang, to come forward to help. It seems that he must first go to meet the king of Chang, and then through him, he will have a relationship with Kaifeng Mansion.

He asked Ning Yi to fly back and told him that he should never talk about this matter to anyone again. Then he took the worship post and immediately went to the Changwang Mansion to meet Zhao Hao. After seeing Zhao Hao, he told Zhao Hao in detail what Ning Yifei said, but he didn't say the names of Ning Yifei and Yin Chen, but only deduced that it was two little beggars who inadvertently bumped into it in the wild, and later because he was afraid, he burned the corpse and the grass house. Zhao Hao listened, didn't say a word, and immediately rushed to Kaifeng Mansion with Hong Qili.

Hong Qili faced Shen Yu and Bai Tang at this time, and told the story he had told Zhao Hao as it was, only to hear that Shen Yu and Bai Tang were dumbfounded, and it was hard to believe that there was such a strange thing in the world.

"That woman on the outskirts of the city," Hong Qili looked at Bai Tang and said cautiously, "In my opinion, nine times out of ten, it is the woman that Lord Shenzhu met in Lu Mansion!"

Bai Tang said in a deep voice: "That Li Xiucai's wife came to report the case a few days ago, saying that Li Xiucai must have been sucked by Pei Yuniang of the embroidered building. And Lu Fuzhong has seen Xiaomei of the cat ghost with his own eyes, and also said that Lu Gongzi is infatuated with Pei Yuniang, and the cat ghost must be Pei Yuniang's ......" With Zhao Hao here, Baitang did not hide anything from Hong Qili, and told the transcripts of Li Niangzi and Xiaomei in detail.

Pei Yuniang?!

"Since all the clues point to this Pei Yuniang, maybe there is something wrong with her. Zhao Hao used his slender fingers to play with the jade waist hanging, and said with a slight smile, "Anyway, it doesn't hurt to check it." Gang Master Hong, you can assist Lord Shen and Bai Tang in investigating this matter. ā€

"Yes. Hong Qili bowed down and accepted the order.

"Bai Tang ......" Zhao Hao stood up from the chair, without a trace of a smile on his face, and continued, "I don't care about the sword shop, but you must put Zhou Xiaogongzi's affairs first, and you must not slack off! Lord Zhou is highly respected and admired by the world, if something happens to his children, he will lose his trust in the world, can you write it down?"

Zhao Hao's voice was not high, but it was extremely solemn, and his tone was much more severe. Bai Tang didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly replied: "Lord Wang, please rest assured, your subordinates will definitely fulfill their duties, make every effort to track down, and find Zhou Xiaogongzi as soon as possible!"

Looking at King Chang's calm face, Shen Yu felt that the prince was more mature than the current emperor, and he was never in a hurry and methodical when encountering problems. Although most of the time he shows indifference, in fact, he is always clear in his heart, and he does not rub sand in his eyes. Since the emperor has issued an order on this matter, of course, it is not trivial. Now that the two gods have caught the horse, coupled with the eyeliner of the beggars all over the world, it depends on my Kaifeng Mansion's ability!

King Chang did not linger, and left with his guards, leaving everyone to discuss their own countermeasures. Zhao Hao is such a person, he has never doubted the use of subordinates, said what should be said, did what should be done, and never pointed fingers.

ā˜†ā˜†ā˜†

"Daddy, when will my master come back?" asked Chris in a long voice with his hands on his chin and staring at the old man with big eyes.

The old man sat at the octagonal table, flipping through a picture scroll in his hand, and replied casually: "What kind of place are you in Wenzhou?

"What?" Chris lamented, the inconvenience of transportation in ancient times was really annoying, she pouted, "Can't he perform light skills, day and night, and come back quickly?"

The old man glanced at her, smiled and quipped: "Haha, you are in a hurry this time, why didn't you see anyone a while ago? When he left, you didn't come to send it off." Alas, what's the use of asking you to be a stupid apprentice......"

"Aren't I busy putting out fires......" Chris muttered, pouting.

When the old man went to the city to drink, he naturally heard a lot of legendary deeds about Lord Xiaolan and Wuban, and he was really happy for her. At this time, seeing her boring appearance, I wanted to praise her and make her happy. The old man laughed and praised: "Speaking of this firefighting, you really did a good thing for the people of Kaifeng!"

As soon as he said two words of praise, he suddenly remembered something, so he said half-jokingly: "I think that my father never hid his liking for men back then, and even Grandmaster Ren knew it." Haha, your kid is better than the blue, and the whole city knows it! If you are really a man, you really have the demeanor of a father!"

Chris could tell that her father-in-law was making fun of "the little thing about Lord Xiaolan and the Divine Sword Hunter", she rolled her eyes, smiled evilly, and replied, "Hehe, I'm not as good as Daddy." I heard that when you were still an official in the court, you stayed at a duck shop one night, but you ran into an immortal jump. The owner of the duck shop knows that you are an official of the imperial court, so he wants to blackmail you for money. But you didn't admit it or didn't admit it, and refused to give more money, so the shopkeeper was angry, so he really called the official. Who knows that after the official came, he persuaded you to pay, saying that the provincial trouble was ugly. You told him, 'Come on, come on, punish him quickly, and the official is still in a hurry to go to the court!' As a result, you were punished with a cane on the street as usual, and after being beaten up, you went straight to the court!

When everyone talked about General Di before, Chris didn't know anything about it, so he felt that he needed to make up for some more lessons. So she recently turned out the Tiange brochure from earlier, especially the "Brief Chronicle of Beijing Affairs", and read it very carefully, because she came into contact with more and more people in the court, and the relationship between them became more and more complicated, and the slightest attention would arouse suspicion. She tried her best to keep in mind all the big and small things that happened in the capital, although it was impossible to cover everything, but as long as she was cautious in her words and deeds, she believed that there would be no big mistakes.

Regarding Shi Yannian's prostitution back then, when she read it in the booklet, she thought it was very funny, so she was very impressed, and she just said it at this time to make fun of it.

"It seems that there is such a thing!" the old man stroked his beard, as if to reminisce, and then laughed, "I knew that they were used to doing that fairy jump, but there was a little boy in that brothel who was born very well, how could my father bear it?" But the money, I wasn't ready to pay in the first place! As for what is embarrassing, I don't think it's unafraid! Haha...... Besides, I think my father's kung fu, those dozens of sticks hit on the body, it's not like tickling?"

"......" Chris was speechless for the moment, thinking about his rumors, and argued: "That gossip, Daddy also believes it......?"

She told the funny story that happened during the firefighting, and the old man laughed when he heard it.

The two were chatting happily when they heard a delicate voice: "Brother Feng!"

When she entered the house, Yueyuer saw the person she was thinking about.

Yue Yu'er has never seen her "Brother Feng" since Dengzhou, and even the purpose of coming here has been thrown out of the clouds.
