At the middle of the night, Zhenqi woke up Zhai Yun, and together they sneaked out of the city lord's mansion with the sword. They walked on the street for an hour and found nothing unusual.

"Second senior brother, it seems that there is nothing to gain tonight."

"Well, let's go back first."

Just when the two were about to go back to the house, they saw a figure flashing in front of them, and they chased after them with their swords, but when they turned the corner of the street, there was no figure, only a strand of clothes left on a branch not far away,

Zhai Yun took it down and said, "It must have been the man who kept him. Judging by his figure and the color of his clothes, he should be a man. Second senior brother, do you think this man is related to the disappearance case?"

Zhenqi took the corner of the clothes in Zhai Yun's hand and said, "I don't know, but we'll keep this for later use."Then the two secretly returned to the City Lord's Mansion, and went back to their rooms to rest.

After breakfast the next day, Zhenqi went to the old castellan and said, "Chancellor, my junior brother and I want to visit Niu Dalang's house."

"Well, I'll let Axie take you there"

"Okay, thank you City Lord"

After bidding farewell to the city lord, the three went straight to Lao Niu's house. It turned out that Niu Dalang was the first missing person. Niu Dalang was the only son in the family. He was twenty years old and just married. .

When I arrived at Lao Niu's house, I saw Niu Dalang's wife washing clothes by the well. Axie walked in and said, "Sister-in-law, Father Niu's illness is getting better."

The lady touched tears and said: "My father-in-law's illness is getting more and more serious, I wonder when Dalang will come back?"

"Sister-in-law, don't worry about it. You see, this is a young man invited by the city lord from Bei Haozong to investigate the disappearance of people. They want to ask you something. Maybe they can find Dalang?"

After hearing this, the woman hurried forward and saluted, "Please two immortals, you must find my Dalang!"

Seeing this, the two helped the woman up, and Zhai Yun said: "Madam, don't perform such a big gift, we will definitely do our best, first tell me what happened the day Da Lang disappeared."

The woman thought for a moment and said: "That was a month ago, the Young City Master asked Da Lang to see a doctor, and Da Lang didn't come back after that." After speaking, she started crying again, Zhen Qi and Zhai Yun really didn't know how to comfort the woman He could only bid farewell hastily, leaving Axie to comfort the woman;

Later, the two inquired about the missing persons in the market, but all the missing persons did have nothing in common as the old city lord said.

It wasn't until noon that the two had dinner in the teahouse. Zhai Yun bit the bun and said, "Brother, these things don't seem to be related at all. How can we investigate?"

Zhenqi put down his chopsticks and said, "Do you still remember that Niu Dalang's wife said that Niu Dalang met the Young City Lord before he disappeared?"

"remember"

"Well, it seems that we are going to meet this young city lord."

"Okay, let's go after dinner, brother, don't you want to eat?"

"I won't eat, Fangsi, I can't eat or sleep, and you forgot again"

"No, no, hey, I won't talk anymore, I'll eat now"

After the meal, the two rushed back to the city lord's mansion. When the old city lord told the young city lord to find out about Niu Dalang's disappearance, the old city lord was stunned and said, "Are you two suspicious?"

Zhenqi explained: "The city lord is too worried, we just want to know more details."

The old city lord thought for a moment and said: "Please wait in the inner hall, I will call the dog over."

After a while, the old city lord and the young city lord arrived, and Lin Wenyuan, the young city lord, still had an impatient expression and said, "What's the matter, you two?"

Zhai Yun couldn't get angry when he saw him like that, and when he was about to have a seizure, Zhenqi held his hand down, so he could only snort, and looked out the window,

Zhenqi said: "On the day Niu Dalang disappeared, the Young City Lord invited him to see a doctor?"

"So what?"

"I don't know who is treating the doctor?"

"Of course it was me, I was unwell that day"

"Then after seeing the doctor, I don't know what happened?"

"Of course Niu Dalang has gone home, or do you still want me to treat him to dinner? Alright, you guys have finished asking, and I will leave after asking."

Before Zhenqi could speak, Lin Wenyuan left, and the old city lord had to apologize for his son. After the old lord also left, the two returned to Zhenqi's room, and Zhai Yun said, "Second senior brother, I How do you look at it, why do you think there is something wrong with this young city lord, do you think he looks like the person we met that night?"

Zhenqi shook his head and smiled: "I think you don't like him, it's so dark that night, you can still see the whole figure clearly?"

"Hmph, I think there's something wrong with that young city lord."

"It's still too early to make a conclusion. Regardless of whether the missing person is dead or alive, there must be a place to hide. Although the City Lord's Mansion is large, I have inspected it in the past few days and found nothing unusual. Fangsi, if it was you, would you How to hide it?"

"Well, if it were me, if I wanted to hide the whereabouts of so many people, I would definitely find a place where there are few people."

"Well, I think so too. The mountains near Yuewang City are good places to hide our whereabouts, so let's go up to the mountains tomorrow to have a look."

"it is good".
