For the next thing, my plan is like this.

The first step is to find the rich girl who is destined to be entangled by the vixen; the second step is to confess her fears like a fool-the peasant she met when she was stealing leftover porridge a few years ago.

Thinking of the fox spirit's description of the peasants in the chapter "The Peasant", I feel that this fox spirit is not only full of brains, but also really ignorant.Still holding a neck-bending weapon?The farmer just took a hoe.

The quick travel reminder I got ended when the rich girl told the fox spirit's words to my father.I guess, the future direction of the story should be that the rich girl's father finds the peasants and drives away/kills the fox spirit.Since the messenger of justice in "The Peasant" has been subdued by our side, the development of the plot in reality should be that Brother Tang pretended to drive me away from the rich girl.

As the saying goes, “Take one step and see ten steps. I, as a strategist, figured out everything ten steps away. The only thing I didn’t figure out was the number one female in this article, the rich girl. She disappeared.

...the plot can't go away.

When I first arrived in Shannan, I thought it would be hard to find a rich girl who didn't even have a name in the original text, but I didn't expect to find out where the rich girl was when I asked casually.

There are several rich and noble families in Shannan, but the only ones with beautiful girls are the royal family.Now that the location has been found out, the next thing to do is naturally to go to Wang Yuanwai's house first.Relying on being able to switch between humans and foxes at will, I slipped into Wang's house without much effort.In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, I purposely slipped into the Wang's house at an ugly time, but at such a time when night owls should wash up and go to sleep, the Wang's house is brightly lit.

The lights in all the courtyards were still on, and the maids and servants holding on to the lanterns were all in a hurry, but they were extremely careful not to make any noise as they walked.Occasionally, when there was a conversation, the two of them gathered together and whispered in their ears, so that I, a fox who was waiting to listen to the wall, couldn't catch a word.However, what is certain is that something serious must have happened to the Wang family.

All voices were quiet, and the only main courtyard that heard intermittent crying sounds seemed to be eye-catching.I hesitated for a moment between listening to the gossip and looking for the target person, and decided to find out about the enemy first.

The crying one was a woman in her 20s.The woman's lower abdomen protruded slightly, she was obviously pregnant, she was supported by the maid and stood by the door, she did not enter the house, just stood there overlooking the courtyard door, apparently waiting for someone.

An older man persuaded the woman to go back to the house to rest first.Although the woman answered, she didn't even move her feet.Seeing this, the man didn't try to persuade him any more, he just sighed, and ordered someone to bring a chair for the woman to sit down for the time being.

Looking at the clothes and posture of these two people, there is no doubt that these two people are Wang Yuanwai and Yuanwai's wife Zhao.In the middle of the night, what could disturb the two of them like this?

Not long after Mrs. Zhao sat down, two maids were dragged in.When Mrs. Zhao saw the two servant girls, she immediately stood up from the chair that was still warm.

The age of the two maids is not too old, they look like fifteen or sixteen years old.These two maids should be little girls who love to dance and laugh on weekdays, but... I looked at the blood stains on the dresses of the two maids, and I felt that these two maids might not be able to dance in the future.

The two servant girls were almost beaten to their deaths. When they saw Wang Yuanwai and Zhao Shi, they all held on to their last energy to beg for mercy.It's just that after being beaten like this, the sound they can make is not much higher than the sound of mosquitoes.

Mrs. Zhao heard a few words begging for mercy from the two maids, her knees softened, and she sat back in her chair and wept.With a sullen face, Wang Yuanwai waved his hands to ask the women to drag the two maids out.I looked at the blood stained on the ground, and suddenly felt Zhao's pear-blossoming face became difficult to see.

A maid brought out a bowl of anti-fetal medicine from the small kitchen in the courtyard. Wang Yuanwai comforted her for a long time before persuading Mrs. Zhao to take a few sips from the medicine bowl.

I listened to the corner of the wall at this moment, and I could hear something about it. Someone seemed to be lost in the Wang family.

After waiting for a cup of tea, someone entered the main courtyard again.This time, a few servants came in.The servant at the head had a bitter face, and although he didn't say a word, he had clearly expressed everything he wanted to say.Mrs. Zhao stared at the servant for a moment, the flesh on her chin trembled a few times, and she couldn't hold back the wailing she had endured for a long time.

Wang Yuanwai walked up to Mrs. Zhao, put his arms around Mrs. Zhao who was out of breath from crying, and waved his hand to signal the servants to search again.

Zhao's crying words sounded from Wang Yuanwai's arms, and Zhao's voice was interrupted by crying from time to time. After Zhao finished speaking in a complete manner, I spliced ​​the whole story together.

——It was Wang Xueqing who got lost in the Wang family.The reason why the Zhao family was so worried was because during the period after Wang Xueqing disappeared, the Wang family had not received any news from anyone suspected of being a kidnapper.

It is impossible for Wang Xueqing to disappear for no reason. Her disappearance must be caused by others.And the person who kidnapped Wang Xueqing didn't seek money or a job, so Wang Xueqing, who was useless to him, was in danger.

It is not accurate to say that she was lost, but according to what I heard from the corners of the wall, Wang Xueqing's situation can be regarded as a disappearance in a secret room.

The two maids who were bloody and bloody from the beating were the two maids who took care of Wang Xueqing on a daily basis, and they were the first to discover that Wang Xueqing was missing.Wang Xueqing is the only daughter of Wang Yuanwai and the Zhao family. She has been pampered since she was a child, and she has to be taken care of by others when she dresses and washes.In order to serve Wang Xueqing to wash and rest early, the two maids made the bed and fetched water. Wang Xueqing, who should be taken care of most, lost care.

According to common sense, even if Wang Xueqing was left unattended, she shouldn't disappear out of thin air.After all, Wang Xueqing's small two-storey building was built with great care. In the small building, a low door was specially built at the stairs leading to the first floor.

The low gate was built to restrain the ladies in the boudoir, so that the ladies would be locked in the second floor after nightfall and not allowed to wander around.But for Wang Xueqing, who just turned ten years old, this low door is a safe child lock.

The maid who went downstairs to fetch water was very sure, and she locked the low door when she went downstairs.The maid who made the bed also said that when she made the bed with her back turned to Wang Xueqing, she heard Wang Xueqing's footsteps, but under such circumstances, Wang Xueqing suddenly disappeared.

When the two servant girls first found out that the young lady was missing, they thought that Wang Xueqing was playing with them for fun. It wasn't until they searched the second floor that Wang Xueqing was not playing hide-and-seek with them, but Really missing.

The two maids who panicked immediately reported the matter to Mrs. Zhao, and afterward, Mrs. Zhao ordered someone to torture the two maids.

The last people who had contact with Wang Xueqing were those two servant girls, and the most suspected people were also those two servant girls.After all, although the words of those two maids made sense everywhere, they were also full of strange things.

"How could such a great living person just disappear like this?"

Hearing what Zhao asked hysterically, I felt really uncertain.In the grotesque world of "Strange Tales from a Liaozhai Studio", if things go wrong, there can really be dramas that change people's lives.It's just... I don't know if there will be such a hidden plot in the "Farmer".If not, Wang Xueqing's life would be really worrying.

Once the characters in the fast-travel reminder die, brother Tang, I'm afraid they will die soon.

Brother Tang heard me finish such a long paragraph in one breath, and said, "So, we need to find Wang Xueqing first?"

Congratulations, you got it.

It is too difficult to find a person who does not know his appearance but only his name.My idea is to grab a portrait of Wang Xueqing from the servants sent by the Wang family first, and then find someone based on the portrait.

It's a good idea, but it's just an idea.

I mentioned my thoughts to Brother Tang, and Brother Tang immediately said: "There will definitely not be a portrait of Wang Xueqing on the servants. Moreover, there should be many servants sent by the Wang family, and they don't know what Wang Xueqing looks like."

Listening to Brother Tang's words, I felt a little magical.

If someone is lost, what should I do if I don't bring the portrait of the missing person to the streets to ask people to find someone?With just one mouth?

I don't know if the servants searched for people with their mouths alone. What I know is that Brother Tang successfully blocked my mouth.

"Qingyu." If news of Wang Xueqing's disappearance spread, she would lose her reputation.

But... a little girl who just turned ten years old still pays attention to her reputation?

I didn't believe in evil, so I just found a gap and knocked out a soft-footed servant to search for him, but the portrait of Wang Xueqing that I thought everyone should have in my mind actually didn't exist on this man.

If you can't find the portrait, you can only follow the servants sent by the Wang family in order to find some clues.After tracking a few servants who looked anxious and looking around blindly, brother Tang and I finally set our tracking target on the leader of the servants I met that night.

Like the other servants, the head servant kept looking around anxiously, and he didn't say a word about finding someone.Occasionally, I met acquaintances on the street and saw that the head of the servant came forward to ask anxiously, and what the head servant answered had nothing to do with looking for someone.

... If this method of tracing can really bring Wang Xueqing back, it would be a stroke of luck.

The head servant searched the streets for two days, but he didn't get lucky, but bumped into an acquaintance.When the servant leader saw an acquaintance, he put aside the search for the person for the time being, and only forced the acquaintance to talk about the past.

At first, the thick body of the servant leader completely blocked the man.I only heard the person but couldn't see the shape. I heard the voice of the person blocked by the head of the servants, and I felt a little familiar.Until the head servant finally turned his body to one side, exposing the half of the person blocked by him, I looked at the familiar short flat eyebrows, and I also met an acquaintance.

Hey, Pu Songling.
