Chapter 68 Missing

There are too many people involved in the missing case. If we investigate them one by one, it will take a lot of time. So it seems that splitting up the actions may be a good idea.

But Qiu Muli immediately thought of the suicidal behavior reward, in which the simple words "the team members acted separately" had a strong ominous tone.

Qiu Muli immediately stated that they had to stay together all the time.

Li Qingruo: Although I don’t know what A-li is talking about, it must make sense!

Ji Xianyi, who had never suggested to separate the two groups, was calm and composed.

Ji Xianyi accepted the fact that there was one fool and one overly happy person around him. After all, life in the mountains was too boring. Although he could bully his junior brothers and sisters on weekdays, it was still much more interesting to go down the mountain for training. After all, he was not like a certain ice stick named Li, and his swordsmanship could not stand loneliness.

All the junior brothers and sisters who had thick filters for the eldest senior brother sneezed inexplicably: I don’t know if the senior brothers and sisters are safe after going down the mountain, it’s another day of missing them.

Called Popsicle Li Nianran: ...Am I familiar with you guys?

A large number of people come in and out of the county town every day, so it is not uncommon to see strangers in the county town. But if anyone is to blame, it is Ji Xianyi and the other two. Both their appearance and clothing are too eye-catching, which led to many people trying to find out their information openly or secretly after they entered the city.

But no matter what the reason, after they walked out of the Song Mansion, the eyes of the people around them were much more restrained than when they first entered the city.

After leaving the Song Mansion, they walked along the road on the right. Just as Xue'er said, after walking for a while they could see the busy streets in the distance.

Gradually, more and more stalls appeared on both sides of the street, with a wide variety of goods that were overwhelming. Some vendors were even shouting loudly to customers.

At the very edge is a cold tea stall with just the right number of people. The owner is always smiling and sometimes even jokes with passers-by.

"Give me a pot of cold tea!" The man who spoke put the bamboo basket he was carrying on the ground. Red wild fruits could be vaguely seen on the top layer of the bamboo basket.

"The cold tea is here! Brother Xu seems to be a little late today. It looks like he has dug up some good treasures." The stall owner said jokingly while putting the cold tea on the table.

Xu Chang's face darkened when he heard this, and he said angrily, "Don't mention it. I met that lunatic Wei Yu and he made me fall."

On the other side, several people who had just walked here and heard the name Wei Yu stopped in their tracks. Ji Xian's eyes dimmed and he stepped forward to ask, "Excuse me, is the Wei Yu you are talking about the same Wei Yu who has a personal relationship with Hua Niang?"

Xu Chang was already in a bad mood, and became very impatient when he heard someone suddenly interrupt him. Just as he was about to speak, he caught a glimpse of Ji Xianyi's appearance and the sword on his body, and the words were blocked in his mouth. In the end, he just nodded blankly.

Upon hearing this, Ji Xian continued to ask, "I wonder where we can find him. We just happened to be looking for him for something."

When Xu Chang saw the man in front of him dressed in extraordinary clothes, the anger in his heart subsided inexplicably. He was just a little curious about what these people wanted from that crazy Wei.

"There is a ruined temple to the south. Usually, Wei Crazy...ahem...Wei Yu would be there." Although Xu Chang was curious, he did not ask in detail. He just told the other party where Wei Yu would appear.

The stall owner who had been listening to the conversation between the two said, "You guys should be careful if you want to find him. He has become crazy since that incident."

Ji Xian glanced at the stall owner and nodded, "Thank you for letting me know."

Watching the figures of the people leaving, Xu Chang muttered to himself: "This crazy Wei can actually know such people..."

Seeing Xu Chang's expression, the stall owner nearby said with a smile, "Brother Xu went to dig herbs so early in the morning, and you may not know them, but they..."

I was originally still thinking about who would be the breakthrough point, but now it seems that the best candidate has been found.

"Although we cannot determine whether Hua Niang's disappearance is related to this series of missing persons cases, it is the first known missing persons case so far. It seems that we need to look for Wei Yu." Ji Xian said.

Li Qingru nodded in agreement. "But from what they said, Wei Yu seems to be unconscious."

Seeing that Qiu Muli didn't react, Ji Xianyi immediately decided, "Seeing is believing. We need to meet with Wei Yu."

It was not an exaggeration to say that the temple was in ruins. Half of the door panel of the temple was missing. Li Qingruo pushed the door open carefully, fearing that if she pushed too hard, the whole door would fall apart.

As soon as a few people walked in, they were almost covered in their faces by the red cloth hanging randomly.

“Ahem…”

A gust of wind blew, and the dust accumulated over the years began to float in the air. Ji Xianyi immediately covered his mouth and nose. Li Qingruo, who was a step slower, coughed a few times and looked at Qiu Muli with envy while wearing a veil.

After everything in the house returned to normal, the few people were able to see the entire interior of the ruined temple.

"How festive?!" Li Qingruo murmured with some doubt about life as she looked at the various red cloths and worn-out red lanterns in the house.

The whole temple looked shabby, but the interior was so red that it was blindingly beautiful. Ji Xian glanced around and after seeing something, he became unnatural and even his ears seemed to turn a little red.

Li Qingruo seemed to be still in shock from the "decoration" in the temple, and therefore Qiu Muli was the only one who noticed Ji Xianyi's little action. He looked in the direction of the other party's sight, and when he saw the small piece of red clothing that seemed to have a pattern of nightingales embroidered on it, he couldn't help but exclaimed "Wow".

The sound quickly attracted Li Qingruo's attention, but before they could say anything, Ji Xianyi coughed lightly and took a step forward between the two of them, his expression serious and solemn, "It seems that there are indeed people living in the temple."

Qiu Muli chuckled and said, "Yeah~ Even this hobby of collecting things is very strange~."

Li Qingruo had no idea what the two were talking about. She nodded and said, "Judging from the degree of damage to these items, they must have been picked up. The only thing they have in common is their red color."

Before she finished speaking, she suddenly shouted, "Who!"

It seemed that a figure just appeared from the front left, but quickly disappeared under the cover of the red cloth. Li Qingruo unconsciously held the sword in her hand, but she did not expect that someone suddenly rushed towards Qiu Muli from the other side. Fortunately, Ji Xianyi reacted quickly, and used his sword to cross the two of them, and quickly knocked the opponent to the ground.

After being knocked to the ground, the man quickly got up again, shouting something, and then rushed towards Qiu Muli again. Seeing this, Ji Xian had to use the scabbard of his sword to press a certain acupoint on the opponent's legs. He lost strength in his legs and soon fell to the ground.

Even though this man had lost the feeling in his legs, he still crawled towards Qiu Muli without giving up. As he got closer, the others gradually heard the name he was calling.

"Flower lady! Flower lady!"

Ji Xianyi exchanged glances with the others and tried to call out their names, "Wei Yu?"

However, the other party didn't react at all after hearing the latter part. He still looked in Qiu Muli's direction and kept calling Hua Niang.

Looking at the man with disheveled hair crawling towards him, Qiu Muli was silent for a moment and said, "Wei Yu."

I thought the other party would not react, but he suddenly said with a happy face: "Hua Niang! It's me! I'm Wei Lang. After all these years, you finally talk to me. It's all my fault. It's all my fault..."

Wei Yu was very excited after hearing Hua Niang talking to him, but soon his tears started to flow again. His expression of both joy and sadness was really heartbreaking.
