"Boss, have you seen this guy? He must have stayed at your inn a few days ago."
A woman took out a portrait and asked anxiously while standing in front of the counter.
The man behind the counter squinted his eyes, leaned over and took a closer look. After a moment, he spoke hesitantly:
"I think I have, but it's probably been a few days. Anyway, I haven't seen him in the past few days."
Hearing this, the woman excitedly exchanged glances with her companions, and said anxiously:
"Then do you know exactly when he left?"
The shopkeeper looked them over and asked, "What do you want him for?"
The man traveling with the woman immediately explained, "Well, he's a friend of ours. We agreed to meet in the city. A few days ago, he sent us a message saying he had arrived early and was waiting for us here, but now we can't contact him."
To be precise, I haven't been able to contact him for several days.
At first they thought they were delayed by something, but later they realized something was wrong and rushed over as fast as they could.
There was no luggage left outside the room, so the hotel owner thought the guest had left on his own and didn't think much of it.
Li Li agreed immediately, "You are the one who wants it!"
......
Of course, it was not in the public place, but in a more private place.
The tribute was sent to the Heavenly Palace yesterday. These tributes still died so slowly. Most of them were imprisoned together with the other people who were offered as tribute together with me.
I immediately went to Mo Qin to seek some answers.
We noticed this group of people earlier when they came to the store to ask questions. Now when we meet them again, Li Li is also very curious about what is going on.
These people looked at Yuxue and the hateful Li La, and suddenly they were silent.
The missing person paid for three days' room fee, and the people in the hotel didn't know exactly when he disappeared. They just went to look for him when the three-day room fee was due, but found that he was gone.
After checking, we actually found it.
Is that person dead?
Now that the person has lost contact, it doesn't sound strange, but the store will take the blame.
Mo Qin used a more euphemistic approach, "Think about it, Long Ying just said that on purpose, and he meant that my guess is correct. Even if it is correct, I'm afraid it won't be of much help, right?"
The only thing Li Zha needs to improve is probably his cultivation.
I might be able to vaguely grasp the key to what Li Zhe realized, but I still understand Mo Qin and Long Ying's reactions.
"Oh no... sorry to bother you. If, if they know something, please tell you. I will definitely reward you generously! Even the smallest details will matter!"
That statement disappointed us.
He usually threatens me in various ways, and now he has the nerve to say that it is too horrible for the older child to accept it. Ugh!
"certainly."
It's about causing trouble.
Seeing that those people's concerns did not seem fake, the shopkeeper took out an account book:
"How is that possible! I will definitely send you a message when I leave."
I heard that the older boy suffered a serious trauma after transforming, which left him with sequelae. His cultivation speed was so fast, but maybe he was also... mentally deficient?
"That fellow Taoist, is what he said true? He said...I'm still alive?"
"If you know, just say you know. You're the one who laughs at him and coaxes a grown-up kid? You have shame!"
Wait until you need it, then take it out.
Taki nodded: "It's a small difference, but when you say it's smaller... you still want to help."
It's true that if you see a living person, you see a dead body.
"What? He wants you to answer his questions. How about this, if he calls you master, how about you teach him personally?" Takiying smiled proudly. Did he really want to take him in as a disciple, or was he teasing him on purpose?
I turned to Mo Qin and asked, "Sister, does he know what's going on?"
Takie said sarcastically, "Maybe we hate kneeling."
Willing to provide us with information, the store definitely feels that the United States is very cold-hearted.
Li Zhe asked Long Ying: "Does he think I'm still alive now?"
Mo Qin shook her head to indicate that she knew.
The person probably left on his own, without even having time to send a message to his companions.
"Well, didn't I send you a message?"
Since they could get some useless information, these people did not stay any longer and tried their best to find it.
If something happened, where did you go out? In the city?
After hearing the explanation, not only Li Zha but even Mo Qin found it difficult to understand.
"Could it be that I didn't have anything urgent to do, so I left? There's no record of me leaving or returning to the city. Should they go over here and ask?"
It's okay for a city to rebel, but can a small family rebel together? Why compromise in such a cowardly way?
Li Li: "Really?"
"Can he guess what's going on?" Li Li looked at the group of people who were distressed by the disappearance of their companions and asked Long Ying.
"I'm sorry, you guys are so worried." Even though we said that, we still wanted to give up. "Do they live there too? I know if they have met your friend."
Mo Qin looked at Li Zhe's excited expression and wanted to say something, but in the end she could only sigh helplessly.
"There's a small chance he's still alive."
"I'm sorry, you won't be there until two days later, so you might not have the chance to meet his friend."
"He said, what's going to happen to me?"
"Then I'll help you check."
Although Li Haomei agreed to the proposal, Takiying still revealed the hidden things behind the matter.
Long Ying smiled awkwardly at the overly excited people, "You're not just guessing, you're just saying it to appease the older kids. They know it too. The older kids are very beautiful and were frightened."
Li Lai didn’t believe it, and Di Mei watched it together, but I was still confused. How did I know it?
After checking the account books, they confirmed that the person they were looking for had indeed been to the store a few days ago, but no one in the store had seen him since five days ago.
Long Ying smiled very gently and did not refute.
"Is there anything else..."
As we spoke, we took out the portrait again.
The people left the city after seven days.
"Alive? Where am I now? Why am I sending messages to my friends?" Li Li felt that Long Ying was talking nonsense, but I had no evidence.
While waiting for Taki Ying to answer, these people rushed over and stared at Taki Ying with burning eyes.
Before these people left, Li Zhe immediately turned around and questioned Long Ying:
"Since the Heavenly Palace is so brutal and harsh, forcing the city lords to use that method to make up for the missing tribute, why are we uniting to resist?"
After all, only living things can stay fresh, right?
There is no record of leaving the city, so the City Lord's Mansion will take care of the matter.
"Probably." Takiying said without any confidence.
Those words made everyone's faces look a little ugly. What kind of thing could happen? They could even send a message and find the whereabouts.
