Chapter 108: Missing

Xiao Yun faced a series of inquiries, and a painful expression appeared on her face, as if recalling these things was a painful torture for her.

After a long time, she said quietly: "Except for the fact that I met a few descendants who came to Fenglian Village to ask for rent reduction and exemption that day, and went to Fenglian Village once, I have been staying at home for the past few days and have not gone anywhere. ”

"How long have the people of Fenglian Village been in the mansion, and what did they say to the outsiders?"

Xiao Yun sat there in a daze, like a sculpture: "The housekeeper knows this matter best, but they seem to have only said a few words, put down a little mountain goods and left, and they didn't even enter the house, and the total from entering the door to going out did not exceed the tea time." ”

Call......

Judge Gu let out a long breath of turbidity, and his mood suddenly began to deteriorate.

Things are getting a little troublesome.

Hu Yuanwai's troubles had ended with his own death, and now, this trouble may have been led to him.

He had to immediately verify something to determine whether his speculation was true or not.

If it's true, then even if he leaves now, he may not be able to get rid of the trouble that has already been put on his body.

Gu Ju's mood was a little irritable, he thought it was not a strange incident, even if it was, it was the kind of small problem that could be solved by picking up an axe and cutting melons and vegetables......

As a result, as soon as he stepped on it, he really stepped on it.

So, is it his special constitution that has the potential to attract these things, or is it true that these things are accelerating and becoming more numerous over time?

What if he didn't care about it and left the town now?

It's just that if it's really a strange incident right now, can he get out easily?

Gu Juan pondered for a moment, and patiently comforted Xiao Yun a little, asking her not to tell others the details of the nightmare of the fourth watch, so he hurriedly came out, grabbed a passing subordinate and asked, "Is Zheng Huyuan in the mansion now?"

The subordinate was stunned for a moment, and met those cold eyes, and involuntarily stammered, "Zheng Nursing Hospital, Zheng Nursing Hospital, he seems to be sick, and he hasn't shown up in the house for the past two days, it should be, he should have been hiding in his own house to recuperate." ”

"Take me to him now. ”

Gu Ju's tone was unquestionable, and he soon came to the front of the small courtyard at the edge of the Hu Mansion under the leadership of his subordinates.

He waved his subordinates away, took a deep breath, and pushed open the hidden courtyard door.

Swish!

Without warning, a cold light came under the hood.

Gu Juan didn't even look at it, raised his hand with a palm, knocked the steel knife that was cut straight down, and then took a step forward, and before the person on the other side reacted, he grabbed his neck.

"You're Zheng Huyuan?"

"It's me, who are you!?" The man who had just been put back on the ground gasped, his expression hideous and irritable, and his clenched hands were still trembling slightly.

"You don't care who I am, but now I'm better than you, so ......"

Gu Juan narrowed his eyes and said in a cold tone, "So you only need to answer my question, otherwise, you won't have to worry about being tormented by that nightmare in the future." ”

"That kind of fear that can't be avoided, you also know about the nightmare of the fourth watch!?"

Zheng Huyuan's breathing suddenly stopped, he figured out the threat implied in Gu Ju's words, the expression on his face changed several times, and finally he sighed dejectedly, "What do you want to ask?"

Seeing Zheng Huyuan's reaction, Gu Juan's heart suddenly sank again, "I don't need to ask anything else, I already know everything...... What I really want to know is, besides you, who else did Hu Yuan talk about this, and who did you talk about it to?"

Zheng Huyuan thought about it and said slowly, "Mrs. Yun should know, and Daochang Li of Zhenxi Taoist Temple also knows, and I don't know about the others, but I have never mentioned it to anyone." ”

"Don't spread this matter to the outside world, otherwise the consequences will definitely be as tragic as Hu Yuanwai's. Gu Juan nodded, reached out and patted the shoulder of the depressed Zheng Huyuan, and left the courtyard without looking back.

In addition to Xiao Yun, Zheng Huyuan and Li Daochang, who have been confirmed, there is also the little guy he hired, and he can be regarded as hearing the word dream interpretation he said, so is the little guy also pulled in?

He first found the housekeeper of the Hu Mansion, pulled him aside very forcefully and asked a few questions, then went all the way out of the backyard of the Hu Mansion, went straight to the only inn in the town, woke up the sleeping little guy directly, and asked him from the side if he had heard anything strange and how he slept at night.

The confused little guy only replied that he didn't hear anything strange, and slept soundly at night, so he was even more inexplicable to see Mr. Gu turn around and leave without saying a word, and actually pushed the door directly.

The little guy sat on the bed in a daze, looking at the few silver ingots scattered on the ground in a daze, with a blank expression on his face.

The silver ingot was given to him for the final salary, and it was for him to pack up his things and get out of here now, and leave the town and go back to Fenglian Village.

He also had to inform Feng Cunzheng after he went back that he would not send anyone to Youxie Town again in the near future.

He thought about it around the quilt, but he still habitually obeyed Mr. Gu's instructions, got up and put away the silver ingots, and really packed up his things and turned around and left.

Next, Gu Juan walked along the path towards the west of the town without stopping.

From the housekeeper of Hu Mansion, he basically knew what several descendants of Feng Lian Village had said to Hu Yuanwai, and he also saw what the bag of specialties was.

A few people spoke no more than ten words inside the Hu Mansion Gate, and the contents of the package were nothing more than some bacon and fur, even if they were chopped to pieces by him with an axe, there was no reaction.

Therefore, Feng Liancun has been temporarily excluded from the strange news by him.

In the Hu Mansion, he has not obtained enough information at present, so he must find another party to learn as much as possible from the other party's point of view.

Three miles west of the town, Gu Juan stopped in front of the door of a small Taoist temple.

Except for the small main hall, there are only three houses and a vegetable field left in the Taoist temple, and no other buildings exist.

In the darkness of the night, all the doors were open, empty and unlit, except for a few plates of spoiled dishes on the table in one of the rooms.

Daochang Li, is he dead, or has he run away?

Or is he actually the source of all the strange news!?

Gu Juan sat in the dark room, was silent for a long time, and then got up to leave.

Instead of going back the way he came, he found the distant footprints left on the snow, and then followed the mark until he walked westward, farther and farther away from the town of Youxie, until he could no longer see the crowded and scattered buildings behind him.

After thinking about it, he felt that the biggest possibility of Daochang Li was that he had run away.

This person was more deeply implicated than him in this matter, so it was no surprise that like everyone else, he fell into the strange circle of the nightmare of the fourth watch, and immediately gave up the Taoist temple and fled away in panic.

And now he has made the same choice as Daochang Li, first stay away from this increasingly strange place, see if he can get rid of this inexplicable nightmare, and then make the next judgment and choice according to the actual situation.
