Chapter 113 The Strange Event in the Village
After this incident, the girls in the nearby villages were afraid to go out.Even the girls in the city didn't dare to go out when they heard about it.

Now the entire Qingyuan Mansion is in panic, fearing that they or their daughter will become the next missing person.

After hearing this, Chu Yan felt strange: Recently, such missing persons have suddenly increased.

This kind of thing has happened before. At that time, the number of missing people was only two or three in one prefecture.Why are there so many all of a sudden this time?
When things go wrong, there must be a demon, and there must be some ulterior secret in it.

Chu Yan suddenly thought of a good way to get rid of Lin Hanshen, the prefect of Qingyuan. Maybe these missing girls can be used as a breakthrough.

Thinking of this, Chu Yan asked someone to call Jing Dai, and whispered something in her ear.Then, Jing Dai went down the mountain.

After Jing Dai left, Jiang Wan called Jing Qing again.

Ask him to follow behind Jing Dai, so that it is convenient to meet her, so that Jing Dai will not be able to get away when she encounters danger.

After Jing Qing left, Chu Yan wrote a letter to Yinhuan and the two.Let them stay by Jiang Wan's side and take good care of Jiang Wan, and write to report immediately if there is any problem.

After finishing writing, call Jing Xuan and ask him to deliver the letter.

Jing Xuan took the letter and retreated, tied the letter to the pigeon's leg and let it go.

****
Jiang Wan came down from the mountain road on the other side, because no one had passed by here.It is full of trees and grass, which is very difficult to walk.

If Jiang Wan didn't have light work, I'm afraid she didn't come down, but just rolled down.

After finally getting down the mountain, before Jiang Wan could see the surrounding situation clearly, she met a man in black running from a distance carrying a girl on his back.

The girl lay motionless on his shoulder, and she was stunned at first glance.

Jiang Wan hurriedly hid behind a tree, holding her breath.Jiang Wan didn't come out from behind the tree until the other party walked over.

Jiang Wan saw the figure of the man going away, thought for a while and decided to follow.In order not to startle the snake, Jiang Wan just followed from a distance.

After following for about a stick of incense, Jiang Wan found a carriage parked in the woods on the other side of the mountain.

And the driver of the carriage was also dressed like him.They were all dressed in black with their faces covered except for their eyes.

The man in black put the girl into the carriage, and drove away with another man in black.

Looking at the carriage going away, Jiang Wan fell into deep thought: Who are these two people?Why did you want to catch that girl?Is it revenge or kidnapping?

Jiang Wan couldn't figure it out, and then she simply didn't think about it.

Whether she seeks revenge or kidnaps, it has nothing to do with me.It's better to meddle in your own business, so as not to be thankless.

So Jiang Wan turned around and went back.

Only then did Jiang Wan realize that she had gone the wrong way.This is not the foot of the mountain behind my home at all, but another village in the southwest of their village.

Looking at the low thatched cottage in the distance, Jiang Wan shook her head in her heart.

The people here are so poor that there is not even a brick on the house.All are earth embryo houses made of loess and straw, not even a stone house.

Jiang Wan has never been to this village, but she knows how to walk back.

Jiang Wan bypassed the village and walked out of the village from the side dirt road.

This road leads to the town, and Jiang Wan walked for more than an hour before reaching the town.A horse was called back from the town, but she couldn't walk anymore.

Originally, there were horses in Jiang Wan's space, so she could go back on horseback.

But because there were many people coming and going on the road, it was not convenient to move the horse out.She could only walk all the way to town, which exhausted her.

Sitting in the carriage, Jiang Wan finally felt that her legs had returned.

When I got home, my mother Liang was not at home.After Jiang Wan asked, she realized that her mother had gone to visit.

Now, most of the men in the village are homeless.There are some old and weak women and Confucians left, and most of them will send fragrant leaves to Jiang's family.

Therefore, I had more contact with Liang's.

When there is nothing to do, he will come to talk to Mrs. Liang with the other daughters-in-law of the Jiang family.Talk about new things in the village or town.

Jiang Wan didn't say anything after hearing this, and went back to her room to rest.

She fell from the top of the mountain before, and her body still hurts to this day!Especially the left hand, don't use too much force right now.

During dinner at night, Mrs. Liang heard that her daughter had returned.

Hastily asked someone to ask Jiang Wan to come over for dinner. She wanted to tell Jiang Wan about the strange things that happened in the village recently.

Tell her to pay attention and stop running around.

After Mrs. Liang said it, Jiang Wan knew that something happened in the village.

Many women in the village have disappeared, and they all disappeared while they were out.No one knows where they went, only what they were holding was found.

And the missing women are unmarried women between the ages of twelve and seventeen.

Hearing this, Jiang Wan suddenly remembered what she saw when she came back.

At that time, the man in black was carrying a ten-year-old girl.Unexpectedly, they were not kidnapped for revenge.

But to catch a lot of women back.

This made Jiang Wan think of the evil kung fu mentioned on TV. I heard that many people would be arrested if they practiced this evil kung fu.

Some are young girls, some are boys and girls.In short, these people will not end well if they are arrested.

So, Jiang Wan asked: "Mother, didn't these families who lost their daughters report to the officials?"

"Who said no, so many people have been lost in the village. They must be reported to the officials, but the county magistrate said: they will send people to investigate, and when there is news, the yamen servants will notify them.

The villagers had no choice but to come back first.Then, mobilize the people around you to find it together.

By the way, Min'er from your patriarch's grandfather's house is also missing.

The whole family was in such a hurry, her mother cried and called Min'er every day at home.Eyes almost crying blind. "Liang said with a sigh.

"What? Sister Min'er is gone too." Jiang Wan said in surprise.

"That's right! Min'er just got engaged, and this happened. I don't know if her fiancé's family will dislike her because of this."

Speaking of this, Liang's heart became even more sad.

Her Wan'er was divorced, and she knew that once her daughter's family had such a reputation, they would not be able to be called a good husband's family in the future.

Before, the village chief's wife came to the matchmaker's house.

She also asked Housekeeper Lu in Fucheng to inquire about it, only then did she know that the family did not fall in love with Wan'er.They just fell in love with the Jiang family's wealth and wanted the Jiang family to provide him with scientific research.

Thinking of this, Liang's mood is not good.

She didn't have the heart to talk to Jiang Wan anymore, she had to find a way to tell her daughter a good family.People like those who only value her family's wealth must not want it.

Liang shi filtered the candidates in his mind, but after much deliberation, he couldn't think of the right one.

In the end, I can only give up temporarily.I plan to ask my relatives to help me find out if there are any good young people who are suitable for my age.

With this thought, Liang was fascinated and forgot about Jiang Wan.

Fortunately, Jiang Wan was also thinking about her own thoughts, and Min'er from the patriarch's grandfather's house was missing.As the cousin of the family, Jiang Wan felt it was her responsibility to rescue her.

After all, during the drought that year.The patriarch's grandfather once saved the life of his predecessor, which means he saved her life.
