Nongmen Shenjue

Because Mu Qingyan's complexion was not good and he was tired, Wen Jixue didn't say anything.

Wen Jixue didn't ask him until the two sat in the carriage waiting at the entrance of the village, "Where are we going next?"

"Let's go back to the ferry first, let's talk about it after lunch." The sun has risen now, and running around under the sun is hard to tell if this body will suffer from heat stroke.

Wen Jixue had no objection.

Mu Qingyan leaned against the wall of the car to rest, and it took him a long time to feel relief in his slightly swollen temples.

In his previous life, he was very accurate in cases within three years, and it was no problem to use his powers for seven or eight hours a day, and he had to rest for only one or two hours.But it doesn't work now, after all, it's a new body, the longer it takes to get used to it, the faster the ability can return to the level of the previous life.

Because of this, he proposed to go back to the ferry first, mainly for rest.

He saw before and after the disappearance of Yu Tiezhu's child, and also saw the general direction of the little beggar's departure, but he couldn't support his mental strength if he wanted to search all the way like he traced the Li Liangji case.Li Liangji's case didn't even take half a month until the investigation, but this one took two years.

Lunch is eaten at the inn.

Wen Jixue ordered the kitchen to prepare some light dishes.

After dinner, Wen Jixue made him a cup of Pu'er, and only then did he talk about the morning trip.

"How are you going to check this afternoon?"

Mu Qingyan said bluntly: "Although we only inquired about one family, according to Yingzi, those beggars would go there whenever there was someone serving drinks. I think this is a very suspicious direction. I plan to go to the city to find beggars. Those people should also be allocated, right?"

Wen Jixue nodded: "Of course, don't look at them as just beggars, but they have a strong sense of territory. There are also two types of beggars, one is gangsters, the other is scattered, and there are also local and foreign. They mix in the bottom like this , looking at people, begging everywhere, and well-informed."

"Liushu Village is not far away, and there is also Qingshan Village. Anyway, we will go there along the way, and then enter the city." Mu Qingyan made a plan, which is also to make extra preparations.

It happened two years ago, who knows whether those beggars are entrenched in the city, or settled in a deserted temple in a village outside the city.He accepted Wen Jixue's commission to solve the mystery, to unravel the truth of the ghost mother stealing the child, that is, to unravel why the beggar woman was obsessed with stealing the child, and why she was never discovered.

As for how the beggar woman knew martial arts and what her origins were, he didn't intend to explore.

It's been two years, maybe the mother and daughter have left Fenglin County long ago.

What's the use of staying here even after exploring the inside story?I also know that there must be a sad story. After hearing it, it is just a sigh and a sigh, which is useless.

After eating and drinking enough, Mu Qingyan felt a little drowsy after drinking another cup of good Pu'er black tea.

Wen Jixue wanted to keep him, but thought that his house was next door, so he had no choice but to send him out.

After taking a nap for half an hour, Mu Qingyan recovered enough energy.

This time I didn't rent a carriage. Wen Jixue had a carriage and a coachman. He was a big man with beards. When he saw Mu Qingyan, he just smiled foolishly. He drove the carriage quickly and steadily.

Mu Qingyan swept across the big man without a trace, his steps were steady, but the landing was not heavy, his body seemed clumsy, but his reaction was very sensitive.He is also someone who knows kung fu, and his internal skills are not shallow.

According to the principle of going along the way, they went to Liushu Village first.

Willow Village is very close to the ferry, and most of the small traders at the ferry are villagers from Willow Village.Liushu Village was originally a small village. Since the rise of water transportation, the population has gradually increased, and gradually formed two villages, Daliushu and Xiaoliushu, but it is still only one village in the official registration.

Two years ago, Big Willow lost two children, and Little Willow lost one.

With the experience of Dayu Village, they didn't deliberately have to find the children's family members, neighbors, and acquaintances. Whenever they met, they would inquire. The focus was on verifying those beggars.Sure enough, the villagers saw beggars every time in Full Moon Wine, and they had quite an impression of the mother and daughter. A skinny little beggar could easily arouse people's sympathy and pity. Perhaps someone had given them food, so they were naturally more impressed.

Qingshan Village also lost one, and it was an acquaintance, the daughter of the second child of the Niu family.

Mu Qingyan didn't go to Niu's house, but went home to ask Mu Wan.

"You asked about that matter. I only heard about it later. Aunt Zhao knows more. I'll take you to ask." Mu Wan knows that he often helps people investigate cases now. This freedom also makes a lot of money. She also heard that the storyteller in the teahouse praised him by storytellers, and every time someone mentioned it, she would be honored.

only……

When Mu Wan saw the man in red who came back with him, she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

It's not shyness, it's just that the other party sees the bright moon in the sky, standing in his own room, afraid that the dust will stain the other party's shoes.What's more, this man has a lot of aura, not the aura he puts on, but the aura exuded invisible. Even if the other party speaks kindly to her, she is still very reserved and uncomfortable.

Wen Jixue has long been accustomed to this, even if Chen Shiliu sees him, he will restrain himself unconsciously.

Mu Qingyan was a surprise.

Mu Qingyan is not the Mu family, the entire Mu family has also "fleeed" for 12 years, where did the Mu family come from?Where did Mu Qingyan come from?There is such a family hidden in such a small village.

"I'll wait for you in the car." Wen Jixue didn't follow.

"I'll be back soon." Mu Qingyan nodded, Wen Jixue didn't follow, it really saved a lot of trouble, and Aunt Zhao and the others wouldn't be too nervous when they spoke.

There is also a vegetable garden behind Aunt Zhao's house, and the old couple can't finish eating, so they send some to Zhao Shan's house in the city every few days.The edge of the vegetable garden is surrounded by thorns. In addition to blocking poultry, it is also a good vegetable shelf.Aunt Zhao planted a circle of bitter melon seedlings along the edge of the vegetable garden, and now there are a few small yellow flowers, and there are many fruits.

Zhao Shan's family didn't like to eat this, but Zhao Shu and Aunt Zhao liked it. They thought bitter melon was a good thing for clearing fire.

Taking advantage of lunch, Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao picked a basket of bitter gourds.

There are so many planted every year, and there is more than enough to eat. Aunt Zhao will pick them off and process them briefly, cut them into long strips, dry them and store them as winter vegetables.The vegetables in the vegetable garden can always be received in late autumn, and there are a lot of dried vegetables of all kinds, so there is no shortage of vegetables to eat in winter.

"Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao, you have dried so many bitter gourds." Mu Wan greeted.

"Xiaowan, Qingyan is back, come in and sit down." Aunt Zhao was more enthusiastic than ever.

Aunt Zhao has long been interested in Mu Wan as her daughter-in-law. A few days ago, she asked someone to write a letter, urging Zhao He to go home, and even said harsh words.

Mu Wan was afraid that Mu Qingyan would be in a hurry, so she quickly spoke up.

Only then did Aunt Zhao understand: "I'm asking about that matter." Shaking her head, she said in a low voice, "What kind of ghost mother, why do you bless the children? I think this is weird. Fortunately, the children were sent back safely. What if it wasn't sent back? The two daughters-in-law of the Niu family have never been on good terms. When the accident happened, the eldest daughter-in-law even made sarcastic remarks, and the second daughter-in-law almost didn't fight with her."

"Did Aunt Zhao go to help on the day when the Niu family held the full moon wine?" Now Mu Qingyan's main energy is on the day of the wine.

"Go." Aunt Zhao nodded.

What Aunt Zhao said was similar to what she had inquired about in Xiaoliushu Village before.

Mu Qingyan asked again: "Did Aunt Zhao see these beggars again?"

"I seem to have seen it. It was in the spring of last year. Your Uncle Zhao discussed with me to catch a piglet. There was a sow in Shangshui Village who had just given birth to a litter. Let's go and have a look. Passing by the Temple of Earth at Sanchakou, there is A group of beggars huddled inside, and I just took a look, and there was a person who looked like the beggar woman."

"Is it still the group of beggars?" He asked again.

"Probably not, the number of people is different, and I didn't see that little beggar." Aunt Zhao recalled it, although it was vague, she felt that her memory was correct.

Mu Qingyan simulated a map in his mind, marked the location of each village, added Shangshui Village and Didi Temple, and roughly delineated the scope of activities of the beggar women.

The little beggar is gone, so the beggar woman did not steal the child again, could it have something to do with the little beggar?

The beggar woman is obviously insane, can she really beg for food in peace and contentment?

Coming out of Qingshan Village, Mu Qingyan shared the news with Wen Jixue, and the two decided to go to the Earth Temple first.

It's a pity that there are no people in the earth temple. I asked the nearby villagers that there were indeed beggars entrenched in the past, but they disappeared after the beginning of spring.Every winter, when the weather is cold, the beggars will find a place to live and keep warm, and survive the end of the year with meager food.But winter is very hard, or there is no food, or you are frozen to death, not all can leave in spring.

After entering the city, Mu Qingyan went to the yamen first.

Mullin wasn't there, but the other detectives looked familiar, and he offered them money for their help.These police officers patrol the streets all day long, and they know where there are beggars. Mu Qingyan described in detail the information about the beggars' mother-in-law and daughter, and asked them to inquire. He and Wen Jixue went to the teahouse to wait for the news.

Driven by profit, the news came back within half an hour.

In February, the beggar woman came to the city, and an old woman tried to take advantage of her. The beggar woman went crazy and broke the human leg, and no one saw her again.And what is certain is that there are no little beggars around the beggar woman, she is alone, and everyone else calls her a crazy woman.

Here, the thread is broken.

If you want to find out where the beggar woman has gone, you can only use supernatural powers.

The problem is, there is Wen Jixue next to her, and she could use the pretext of investigation to prevaricate before, so is it possible that she doesn't even need to cover up now?Mu Qingyan has no intention of exposing his abilities, so he must not go to the gate of the city to trace the whereabouts of the beggar woman inexplicably.

He thought of the earth temple he had checked before, and said, "There is no such thing in the city. She must be in a nearby village or town. Maybe she just changed to another earth temple, or lived in a dilapidated house in some village."

Wen Jixue asked: "How do you plan to find it?"

"Let's investigate. It just so happens that Chen Shiliu is also investigating. Send him a message and ask him to help us investigate." They all went to various villages. Chen Shiliu checked the source of the baby, and he checked the beggar woman. On the way.

The beggar woman wants to eat and drink, but she will not deliberately hide her tracks, and there will always be villagers who will see her.
