I have a seal of two worlds

Chapter 142 A Child Is Lost

The sky is dark, rows of lanterns are hung up, and sparks are lit, making Tonglin County and the night sky stand out against each other. However, Tonglin County is full of tourists, but it is more noisy and popular than the sky.

"It's so lively!" Liu Qingyan exclaimed.

"It's so beautiful!" Liu Qingquan pointed to a big lantern hanging in the center of the city, "Is that Sister Shen?"

Lu Zheng and Liu Qingyan looked along Liu Qingquan's fingers, and saw a human-shaped lantern that was three people tall floating in the center of the county town.

The lantern is a female image, the clothes on her body are exactly the same as the statue of the Peach Blossom Fairy in the Peach Blossom Temple, and the craftsmanship of the ancients is indeed not covered, the head and face of the lantern is not a plane, but a three-dimensional image woven out of bamboo strips, It has the graceful and peaceful attitude of the Peach Blossom Fairy in the Peach Blossom Temple.

……

There is nothing to say about the daytime market. It is probably an enhanced version of the Qiqiao Festival. Lu Zheng accompanied the Liu family sisters to the market, watched juggling, bought some things, and then participated in and watched the worship ceremony of the Town God's Temple. Because there were so many people, they didn't join in the fun and go in to burn incense and worship.

In the evening, they went home for dinner, and then they were pulled out again by the excited Liu Qingquan.

……

Tonglin County, which is full of lanterns, has a different flavor compared to the daytime. Although it is only a county system, ordinary people will take advantage of the few festivals of the year to let themselves have a rest. The doorways of various shops are hung with special features. Lanterns, many stores have also launched small activities to win lanterns and rewards.

Lu Zheng looked around. Although there were lantern riddles guessing activities here, it was not considered a traditional program, but juxtaposed with activities such as throwing pots, hoops, walking on stilts, and tug-of-war.

In addition, Lu Zheng is still looking for opportunities to see if he can sing out the big killer he prepared. However, although some shops have launched activities to give rewards for writing poems, those rewards do not attract the Liu family sisters. I haven't been there.

They are interested in...

"Brother Lu is so amazing!" Lu Zheng helped Liu Qingquan get a sugar figurine for nothing by throwing the pot.

"Thank you Lu Lang!" Lu Zheng helped Liu Qingyan win a novel by guessing the riddle.

Lu Zheng blinked and pointed to a painting and calligraphy shop in the distance, "Do you want a painting to be hung in Renxin Hall?"

Liu Qingyan glanced at it and shook her head, "It's not as good as Lu Lang's handwriting. Why don't you buy an empty scroll and let Lu Lang write a handwriting."

Lu Zheng rubbed his chin. It seemed that the only character he could reveal was the inscription "Taoyao" on the Peach Blossom Temple in running script?
"Okay!" Lu Zheng made a palm with his left hand and a fist with his right hand, and smashed up and down, "Then buy an empty scroll, I want to burn incense and take a bath, to cultivate my energy, and write a piece of amazing calligraphy!"

Liu Qingyan smiled, gently pulled Liu Qingquan, and then walked away with Lu Zheng.

……

But before he got to the calligraphy and painting shop, he saw Liu Butou and two policemen walking through the crowd, looking around.

When he saw Lu Zheng, Catcher Liu's eyes lit up, and immediately pushed aside a few people who were blocking the way, and came to Lu Zheng in a few steps.

"Master Lu!"

"Captain Liu." Lu Zheng cupped his hands and saluted, "Is there something wrong?"

Liu Butou nodded again and again, "The common people reported to the government, and a child was missing. We thought it was just the child playing and hadn't come home yet, but there were three families reporting to the government in a row, so I didn't feel right, so I took people to the streets to look for it."

"Then you find me..." Lu Zheng had a vague guess.

Liu Catcher shyly smiled, and cupped his hands again and again, "Old Liu, I didn't intend to trouble you, but now that I ran into him, hehe, Baiyun Temple's "Five Talismans" is famous, I beg you to show kindness and help."

Lu Zheng frowned, "How many?"

Liu Butou immediately said, "Four families!"

At this moment, a policeman hurriedly ran from a distance, "My lord! My lord! Another two families have reported to the police!"

Liu Butou turned his head, "Six families!"

This speed...

If it wasn't for the child who ran away by himself, then the one who made the move was either a well-organized gang or a stranger with knowledge.

Moreover, child abduction...

Lu Zheng took a deep breath, his eyes fixed, and then he looked at Liu Qingyan embarrassedly, Liu Qingyan immediately nodded seriously, "It's important, Qingquan and I will go home first."

Lu Zheng nodded and said to Liu Butou, "It's too crowded, send two people to escort them back, take me to the nearest home of the lost children."

"Okay, okay!" Catcher Liu turned his head and said, "Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, send the two girls from the Liu family home! Be sure to send them home safely!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Lu Zheng, who had just made up his mind, almost choked himself to death with a sip of saliva. He took a closer look at the two police officers. They were indeed mediocre, and they were both in their thirties. They didn't look like martial arts masters. I was relieved.

So the sisters of the Liu family left under the escort of Zhang Long and Zhao Hu, and Liu Butou immediately led Lu Zheng into the side alley, turned around a few times, and arrived outside a courtyard house.

Outside the courtyard, only a few elderly people were anxiously looking around.

"The child's parents have already gone out to look around." Liu Catcher mentioned something to Lu Zheng, and then immediately waved his hands to tell his subordinates to come forward, "Look for the child's clothes or toys."

So the two stepped forward and brought the old people back to the yard. After a while, they walked out quickly with a rattle.

Lu Zheng took the rattle, and then took out a Qi-seeking Talisman from his bosom, with the true energy in his body drawn, the seal in his hand pinched.

"Taishang's edict, look for Qi, get sick!"

A breath was collected from the rattle by the Qi-seeking Talisman, and then attached to the Qi-seeking Talisman.

But... did not find the source?
Lu Zheng's eyes flickered, it really was the method of a cultivator!

In fact, he had guessed it just when he learned that six families had lost their children in one night, but now he just confirmed it again.

Kidnapping and selling children, whether it is reselling for profit, or offering sacrifices in evil ways, those who can do this are crooked ways, and it is a shame for practitioners. Since Lu Zheng has encountered it, he must take care of it and purify the air in the practice world. Earn some luck.

However, the Qi-seeking talisman was useless, but it made Lu Zheng alert.

The other party still has some tricks, does it have a unique secret method, or is it a profound way?

Lu Zheng's eyes flickered, he put away the Qi-seeking talisman, and then changed the seal formula again in his hand.

"The Supreme Commander, look at the breath to find the breath, sick!"

Exercising the Qi Contemplating Technique, Lu Zheng finally faintly felt the same aura as the rattle drum from the west of the city.

Seeing Lu Zheng cast a spell, Liu Tuntou was shocked, and he glanced at Lu Zheng in disbelief, and his posture became more respectful.

After sensing for a moment, Lu Zheng said, "We found the place, but the other party is a foreigner, and his cultivation should not be weak. I'll go back and get some things first, and then we'll go."

"Okay, okay, I listen to you!"

……

Hurrying back home, without disturbing the sisters of the Liu family who were already home, Lu Zheng hung up two embroidered spring knives, brought enough Ninghan Talismans, and set off again, holding a rattle, all the way along the alley, to the west of the city .

A moment later, in the west of the city, Tonglai Inn.

The lights are bright, and people come and go.

Lu Zheng stood far away across the street from the entrance of the inn, and Liu Butou stood beside him, followed by a few policemen.

"This, in the inn?" Liu Butou blinked, with a confused look on his face.

"No way, we've looked here, haven't we seen those children?"

"And those children are so conspicuous, if they are in the inn, it is impossible not to be discovered?"

"The inn is full of people?"

Several police officers looked at each other, only Catcher Liu seemed to have thought of something, he was startled, and looked at Lu Zheng with happiness in his eyes.

Lu Zheng frowned. Is it inconvenient to go to war in the inn?
His eyes flickered, Lu Zheng turned his head and said, "Liu Butou, don't startle the snake, you and I go around first, don't let the air get the attention of that person."

Liu Butou nodded immediately, "From!"

So Lu Zheng untied the two embroidered spring knives and handed them to the policeman behind him, and then crossed the street first, Liu Butou stepped forward to follow.

However, when he entered the door, Lu Zheng slowed down a little, but he was one step slower than Liu Tuntou.

Liu Butou glanced out of the corner of his eye and understood, so he was not humble, took the lead, and walked into the gate of the inn.

In the inn, it was bustling and bustling. Most of the people sitting were businessmen from foreign countries. It was not easy for people who were still running business outside during the Lantern Festival. During the festival, ordering a few small dishes and a pot of good wine was regarded as a reward for yourself.

Seeing Liu Butou enter the door, all the people looked over curiously, some timid people couldn't help but their hearts skipped a beat, wondering if something happened in the inn?

The inn, which was bustling just now, became quiet in an instant.

The shopkeeper Lu of the inn saw Liu Tutou entering the door, hurried out of the counter, and ran over with small steps.

Before the person arrived, he laughed before saying anything, "Hi Catcher Liu! It's a big holiday, what wind brought you here, and nothing happened to the shop?"

Catcher Liu nodded majestically, and said, "It's nothing serious, it's just a holiday today, I asked everyone to patrol around to check, and I also went around, and happened to be transferred to your inn, so I came in to have a look."

"call--"

The lobby of the inn came alive in an instant.

Shopkeeper Lu smiled when he heard the words, "You have worked really hard, and you have to patrol the streets during the big festivals to protect us little people."

As he said that, he led Liu Tutou and Lu Zheng, who looked like Liu Tutou's junior, into the seat, "You sit down first, and I'll give you two side dishes and a pot of wine. You can eat something before you get busy."

Lu Zheng looked at Liu Butou, who was a little shy, but still pretended to sit down.

Lu Zheng glanced around at the people in the inn lobby, then turned his gaze to the backyard, and softly asked Shopkeeper Lu, "Shopkeeper, do you dare to ask if there is a place to go to the toilet in the backyard?"

Shopkeeper Lu nodded, "Yes! Yes! There is a stable and hut in the backyard, which is a place to store sundries. The guests' goods are piled up in the backyard."

Lu Zheng nodded, and then said to Liu Butou, "Sit down for a while, I'll go back."

Seeing Liu Butou sitting down at ease, Lu Zheng turned around and passed through the lobby, and walked calmly to the door leading to the backyard.

Open the half-hanging door curtain, turn around a double-fold corridor, push open the wooden door, and the cold wind of early spring blows in.

Then, the sound of the wind, the sound of donkeys and horses, and the crowing of chickens and ducks came to the ears.

Looking left and right, there are several carriages crowded in the center of the yard, and some bamboo baskets, poles, wheelbarrows and so on are placed against the wall on the side.

There are also some wooden cages, one for chickens and ducks, one for cats and dogs.

Lu Zheng blinked, and found the hut behind the yard.

"Fuck!"

As soon as he entered the door, Lu Zheng's face was distorted, he felt his nose was forced ten thousand times, then he held his breath, frowned, turned and left.

　Thank you fellow Taoist Feiying Jingguan, fellow evil trash, fellow Taoist 08a, and fellow Taoist Taishang, for your rewards
