Chapter 53: Nothing to do with Yecheng Wine Shop
This guess is actually reasonable, after all, similar things have happened countless times in the county.
Either the wife or the husband, or even the grandfather of the child secretly took the child to a wine shop in Yecheng just for the sake of unlimited alcohol supply for half a year.
At first, I thought it was crazy and inhumane, but now that we have seen this kind of thing more often, the people in Liangzhou County have become dull and numb. They began to think that losing children is nothing more than this and they are used to it.
However, the husband of this family strongly refuted, and his reasoning was well-founded.
First of all, he almost never drinks. Secondly, he is a heavy sleeper, and he sleeps on the side of the bed. If he gets out of bed in the middle of the night, he will most likely disturb his wife. Furthermore, the child Gou Sheng is the only child in their family, and he is also his wife.
The family's bloodline is the only one.
Assuming that he wanted to drink again, he would never trade his son for wine. If he really dared to do this, the ghosts of his ancestors for eighteen generations would come to condemn him and take him away.
So the people who were eating melon nodded again, thinking that what the husband said made sense. After asking the woman, they also confirmed that what the husband said was true.
Who stole that child?
Do thieves now steal children in exchange for alcohol?
Someone suggested: "How about reporting it to the government?"
Someone immediately denied it: "The government is not paying attention to the business now, and it is useless to report it. By the time the government sends people to look for it, the child will not be found."
When she heard that the child could not be found, the woman cried even more sadly. The sadness drained away every trace of strength in her body and turned it into a line of ink in this tragic world.
Soon, the woman lay on the ground crying and passed out. She only had a son, and she still hoped to succeed in the future and be admitted as a scholar.
Someone who knows the family's situation said: "The couple of the Su family usually cut down on clothing and diet. Now that there is a shortage of food and the price of food has risen, they eat even less. They have to squeeze out a portion for their children. I'm afraid that the Su family's daughter-in-law
It's because he ate too little and when he got excited, he fainted. Alas, it's pitiful."
However, some people couldn't understand the atmosphere and said, "Who's not pitiful?"
Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu were about to step forward to check, when suddenly, a voice came from the street behind:
"You damn thief! He actually stole my daughter away. She is only seven years old..."
Then, as if a series of formations were triggered, people kept crying in grief, asking whether they had lost their children.
In several nearby blocks, nearly 20 families lost their children.
Pei Mengqing immediately realized that something was wrong. The missing family could still be regarded as an unsolved mystery and needed to be investigated based on clues.
But with so many families losing their children, we have to analyze who would steal the children from the "motivation" point of view.
At this time, Juju also walked out of the family's bedroom and sent a message to Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu, asking them to go back to the courtyard to talk.
Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu looked at each other and chose to return silently to the yard where they and others were hiding.
"What's going on? Is it because I'm guarding my house and stealing, or is it because the Yecheng wine shop is doing this as a trick?" Pei Mengqing asked.
"It smells evil, so it's neither." Ju Ju said.
"Why can wine shops in Yecheng be excluded if they smell evil?"
No matter how you think about it, a wine shop that trades wine for people's children cannot be serious. Pei Mengqing can't understand that the wine shop has nothing to do with evil spirits.
He recalled that he asked the cultivation system at that time, and the system also answered him that "Yecheng wine shop is not completely evil" and suggested that he wait until he reaches the Shenxuan realm and go to Luoyang to find the truth.
Maybe Orange Bureau can solve its own problem?
The result still disappointed him.
"I don't know either, but the elders of the clan once said that if something happened in Yecheng's wine shop, don't get involved, and it has nothing to do with evil spirits. They also said that we will only be qualified to know when we reach the destiny level."
Before Ju Ju left the tribe to start his own business, he heard the elders of the tribe repeatedly emphasize that before his strength reaches the destiny level, he must not interfere with the affairs of the wine shop in Yecheng. The human states and counties will not care about it. They will know the truth after the destiny level.
Will understand.
The things the elders repeatedly emphasized were similar to warnings, never do it. Many kittens died without their bodies intact because they didn't listen to the elders' advice.
Juju is a very reasonable kitten. I believe that no matter how unreasonable it is, since the elders have emphasized it, there must be a deep hidden reason.
Curiosity killed the cat, this is a saying that all cats have been hearing since they were born.
"Could it be that people from Yecheng liquor stores 'acquire' children, train them, and use them to fight against evil organizations?"
Pei Mengqing thought that in many novels and stories, there would be special organizations or departments to train children from an early age.
Children are just blank sheets of paper, and it is easy to fix the rules of "loyalty" and "commands and prohibitions" on them.
It is far better than recruiting a bunch of idle people in society, each with their own selfish desires.
"Well, maybe, but the immediate matter is still more important. So many parents have lost their children. It would be a pity if the people from Tianmeng Pavilion and the Dark Night Chaos give up their lives before they take action." Juju said.
Here, seeing Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu looking at it, they discovered the ambiguity in their words and quickly said, "It's not that it would be a pity to die in the hands of those two evil organizations, but it would be a pity to waste your life and not cherish yourself.
.”
"Then can you follow the smell and find where the children are?"
Cats have a very sensitive sense of smell, which is more than 100,000 times that of humans. Not to mention that Juju is a mysterious cat, so his sense of smell is naturally even more sensitive.
"No problem, come with me." Ju Ju raised his head confidently, indicating that it was a trivial matter.
"Wait a minute, let me tell my father and the others so that they won't worry when they find out that we have disappeared."
Dongfang Xiaoyu rushed to the door of her parents' room and told her father the cause and effect of the incident. As a result, in addition to her mother's reminder to "be careful with everything", her father also complained about herself, saying that as a parent official, she couldn't even help the people who lost their children.
The common people didn't even bother to report it to the officials. He was very sad that he had lost trust in the officials.
She twitched the corner of her mouth, ignored her father's self-condemnation, and quickly followed Pei Mengqing and Ju Ju, following the evil smell and closing the courtyard door.
After leaving the courtyard gate and going around the alley, Ju Ju lowered his head and kept sniffing, gradually walking further and further away.
Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu followed behind it, wearing headscarves and lowering their heads to hide their faces and figures, trying to avoid the eyes of others.
Soon, they arrived at a small alley six blocks away from the courtyard where they were hiding.
There is a small courtyard in the alley, and there is a large courtyard with a deep house not far away.
Ju Ju suddenly trembled and shouted in a low voice:
"Hide your aura! Hide under the wall!"
Pei Mengqing and Dongfang Xiaoyu didn't understand what was happening, but out of trust in Ju Ju, they immediately concealed their presence and hid under the wall.
It can be seen that a figure with an aura like an abyss and an ocean flies out from the deep house compound, followed by three auras whose strength is no less than that of Juju!
Chapter completed!
