Rebellious Contract Beast
Chapter 392 Missing Case in Shangtang Town
Nothing happened after that. It was just that Tsurumi Chuyun and Zhu Hong went to the warehouse and took out old dusty door bolts and hung them on the door. After that, they acted as if nothing happened. It was the same, and I went to have dinner happily.
During this process, Hejian Chuyun asked Zhuhong: "Zhuhong, who is that Zuo Po?"
"Grandma Zuo, she is..." As a maid who grew up in the Zhu Mansion, Zhuhong knew a lot about Grandma Zuo. She did not hide anything and quickly told what she knew about Grandma Zuo. .
The head of the Zhu family, Zhu Jianqing,’s biological mother died young. Zhu Jianqing was adopted by Grandma Zuo when he was young and was raised by her. Unlike other talented legitimate sons of the Zhu family, Zhu Jianqing has never entered the sect. Zuo Po taught her that she was both a teacher and a mother. In the end, Zhu Jianqing sat in the position of the head of the Zhu family and was very respectful to Zuo Po.
Of course, it is not possible to say that Zhu Jianqing is a person who knows how to repay kindness, because for him, in addition to being a teacher and mother, Zuo Po is also a spiritual-level Shen Wen Duan cultivator. As a strong man, he is equivalent to the Three Dukes of Tsurumi Mansion, and is one of the top combat powers in Zhu Mansion.
But it's just a possibility.
Zuo Po's identity is mysterious. Except for her surname Zuo, few people know the rest of the information. There are rumors that Zuo Po is nearly three hundred years old. She is a walking antique of the Zhu family and has been helping the head of the Zhu family.
"In other words, the attitude of this grandma Zuo represents the attitude of wishing the family well?"
"Miss, I don't know anything about the master."
"Okay." He Jian Chuyun nodded, put down his chopsticks, and looked at Shen Yi, but the other party just glanced at her face, and then walked out of the door leisurely on all fours.
She recalled the way Grandma Zuo looked at her just now. How should I put it, it was hard to describe what it was like. It was very strange and made her very uncomfortable.
In short, she subjectively believed that it was definitely not a good look.
"Miss, have you eaten?"
"Well, I'm full already."
"But there are still so many dishes..." Zhu Hong hesitated as she looked at the dishes on the table. She cooked five dishes in total, two of which were meat dishes that Shen Yi had already eaten, and the remaining three vegetarian dishes Tsurumi Chuyun only ate a little bit. She was listening to Zhuhong's speech the whole time, and occasionally put some vegetables in her mouth.
"Eat slowly. If you can't finish it, just store it for later."
"Okay, miss, you go to bed early."
"Well, I'm going back to my room now."
After getting up and walking out, He Jian Chuyun returned to his bedroom. When he opened the door, he saw Shen Yi lying on the blanket playing with gold bars.
Shaking her head, as usual, after washing herself carefully, she leaned against the bed and picked up a book. However, she didn't look at it for too long after turning the pages. She closed it suddenly and looked at Shen Yi, shouting: " Xuanli, Xuanli!”
"What's wrong?"
"Did you see the way that grandma looked at me?"
"I saw it, what's wrong?"
"What do you mean by her?"
"What's the point? Isn't it still the same? I'm not saying, just relax your mind and don't care what she means. In the end, it won't be a big deal to you. Again, I won't leave you here, I will There is a place for me to stay, come on, let’s stop talking about it.”
"Oh." Tsurumi Chuyun responded emotionlessly. She just wanted to discuss this issue with Shen Yi in detail, but now the other party seemed to have no intention, so she was too lazy to say anything.
Turning the book in her hand, the atmosphere in the room became quiet for about three or four minutes. She put the book aside and said, "It's getting late, should I turn out the lights?"
"Turn it off, I'm going to sleep."
"Uh-huh."
Nodding, Tsurumi Chuyun put away the Zhaoye Pearl next to her. The room was suddenly shrouded in darkness. She slowly closed her eyes, without any distracting thoughts, and prepared to fall asleep.
On the side, Shen Yi, who was lying on the blanket, closed her eyes for only a minute, then stood up restlessly, walked to the bed, raised his paws, put his paws on her shoulders and shook her.
"doing what?"
"Uh...well, old witch, I want to see your twin tails, hehe~"
"you……"
……
In the early morning, the girl opened the door and stretched herself in the sunlight that was obscured by clouds.
It seemed to have rained last night, and the air was very fresh, with a moist smell of earth.
"Miss, you're awake! Do you want to have breakfast?"
Zhu Hong's voice came from far away. He Jian Chuyun shook his head and replied: "No need."
With Jingjie's cultivation level, she has already been able to live without food for a long time. She will not feel hungry even if she does not eat for a long time. However, living with food is one aspect, while her cultivation level is another aspect. To her, her current level of cultivation seems to be like It's simply not enough.
Yesterday, she was tortured by her contracted beast, and she only felt a sore back.
Only at this time will the poor girl complain about why she contracted such a life god.
What kind of contracted beast is this? It is clearly the nemesis sent by God to torture her!
At this time, there was movement from behind. She turned around and saw that Shen Yi had also woken up. He put his paws in front of him and stretched hard. He muttered, "I slept so soundly last night."
After muttering, he immediately reacted, raised his head to meet her gaze, and said, "Oh, you just woke up, you were so easy to bully yesterday."
Seeing that Chuyun didn't speak, He frowned lightly, and finally snorted and walked forward. At the same time, he shouted to Zhuhong: "Zhuhong, where did you put the peach blossom stuffed yesterday?"
"Over there, on the bamboo shelf against the wall of the west wing!" Zhuhong replied loudly, and pointed to a place. After hearing this, He immediately walked in that direction when he saw Chuyun, while she herself collected the dead leaves on the ground and packed them. After putting it into the cloth bag, I carried it to the front yard.
Arriving in front of the bamboo shelf Zhuhong mentioned, Tsurumi Chuyun quickly saw a wine jar placed on it.
Call ~
Exhaling a breath of turbid air, she couldn't wait to open the wine jar, raised her hand to fan the air from the jar towards herself, and immediately smelled a soft and pleasant fragrance. This was the fragrance of peach blossoms, which made her feel A rush of comfort and pleasure.
Although the peach blossoms in the front yard bloom in a season that is very unsuitable for them, with the power of Peiyuan Dan, the quality of these peach blossoms that bloom in late autumn is still of the highest quality.
He took out the wine bucket from the storage space, reached into the wine jar and scooped up some wine. The wine was a light pink color. In terms of appearance alone, this peach blossom wine seemed to have passed the test.
After taking a bite, I didn't know how it tasted. Anyway, Tsurumi Chuyun had a look of contemplation on his face.
Shen Yi also followed. Seeing that Zhu Hong was not there, he said openly, "What does it taste like? Let me have a taste."
Glancing at him, Tsurumi Chuyun scooped up some more to signal him to open his mouth, and then poured the peach blossom stuffing into his mouth.
Shen Yiba chirped twice, then looked at her with strange eyes: "Are you sure what you are brewing is wine?"
As soon as the peach blossom wine is taken into the mouth, the rich aroma of peach blossom fills the mouth. There is a wine taste, but very little, and it is more like a drink. Compared with the peach blossom wine that the old witch bought at the outdoor restaurant in Renxi Town, it has obvious shortcomings. Hearing this, He saw Chu Yun pouting, and was about to reply that he would just improve slowly, but Zhu Hong's voice came from the direction of the front courtyard hall again.
"Miss! Miss! Miss!"
"what happened?"
"Miss, someone is looking for you at the door! It seems like something is urgent!"
"Who?"
"It's someone from the winery!"
"Winery..." Hejian Chuyun looked at Shen Yi. Although she didn't know what happened, the winery was her own property. She didn't hesitate at all and quickly closed the lid of the wine jar and put it back in place. After that, he took Shen Yi and trotted towards the front yard.
"coming!"
Arriving at the front yard, Zhuhong had already opened the small door next to it, and there was a person standing outside the door. But to Tsurumi Chuyun's surprise, the person who came was not Yang Bayuan, the steward of the winery, but Master Qian.
I saw him placing his hands in front of his abdomen, his left hand uneasily grasping his right arm, the expression on his face was reserved and haggard, and he was carefully looking at the environment in Mingyan Courtyard. When he saw Tsurumi Chuyun, he hurriedly waved. Attract the other party's attention and shout loudly: "Miss Chuyun! Miss Chuyun! I'm here."
Hejian Chuyun frowned and walked over and asked, "What happened?"
"No, nothing happened...it's Juan'er, something happened to Juan'er..."
"Qian Caijuan?"
"Yes! That's her!"
"What happened to her?"
"Juan'er...is missing." Perhaps because he was too worried about his daughter's safety, Master Qian, a seven-foot-tall man, started crying in front of Tsurumi Chuyun, and then without giving anyone time to react, he puffed again and again. Kneeling on the ground, he begged: "Miss Chuyun, I beg you to help me. I only have a daughter, Juan'er. If she is gone, how will I survive!"
When He saw Chuyun's frown deepening, he released his spiritual power to lift Master Qian up from the ground.
"Don't worry, get up quickly, I will help you with your daughter's affairs."
"Thank you, thank you so much, miss! As long as you help me find my daughter, I, old Qian, will work for you for the rest of my life!" Master Qian clasped his hands together and begged while crying.
And Tsurumi Chuyun pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you here alone? Where are the others? Didn't they come with you?"
"Yes, I am the only one, Miss Chuyun. I came here on my own. I really have no other choice. Miss Chuyun, you must help me. Please..."
"Okay, I said I would help, don't panic." Tsurumi Chuyun said patiently, and then looked at Zhuhong: "Zhuhong, go find Futian and ask him to drive over. I have to go to the winery. ”
"Okay, miss." Zhu Hong didn't say anything, and hurried out of the yard, running toward the north exit of Zhu Mansion.
Master Qian lowered his head, clasped his hands nervously, and occasionally looked at Tsurumi Chuyun.
What he said was true. Qian Caijuan's disappearance made him forget about food and drink. He couldn't sleep a wink all night. Although the workers in the winery were helping him, he was afraid. Qian Caijuan was his most important person. Important relatives, he didn't know what the outcome would be, but no matter what, there was only one outcome he could accept, and that was to find Qian Caijuan, and she was still alive.
Apart from this, he didn't even dare to think about any other results.
He was so scared that he took the risk to find Tsurumi Hatsuun alone. Although he didn't know her current situation, for him, a commoner with a flat head, he subconsciously felt that Tsurumi Hatsuun had the connections and energy. It is far beyond my imagination. With her help, the possibility of finding Qian Caijuan should be greatly improved.
After a while, Futian, led by Zhu Hong, drove a carriage to the gate of the courtyard. Seeing that Chu Yun didn't talk nonsense and only let Zhu Hong stay here, Tsurui got into the carriage with Shen Yi and took Master Qian with him. Rush to the winery.
On the way, she asked Master Qian: "When did Caijuan disappear?"
"Just yesterday, when I was about to return home, I realized that my Juan'er was no longer here."
"Where is Yang Bayuan? He didn't bring anyone to find him?"
"When I found out that my daughter was missing, the manager sent someone out to look for her as soon as possible, but after searching for almost a whole night, she still couldn't find her." Master Qian wiped his tears again as he spoke, his eyes getting redder.
Only then did Tsurumi Chuyun realize that the circles under his eyes were black and the whites of his eyes were bloodshot.
"Yes, I understand." Nodding, Tsurumi Chuyun then fell silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
There were relatively few people on the street today. It didn’t take too long for the carriage to arrive at Luoxiang Liquor Factory. After getting off the carriage, Tsurumi Chuyun found that most of the people in the winery were missing. Yang Bayuan was pacing back and forth anxiously in the middle field. , seeing Hejian Chuyun coming in, he hurriedly greeted him.
"Miss, why are you here?" he asked. Before the other party could say anything, he saw Master Qian following her and couldn't help but said angrily: "Old Qian! Where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time!"
Master Qian was startled for a moment and looked at his face full of apology.
"I'm sorry, boss, I made my own decision..."
"I'll settle the score with you later!" Without giving Master Qian a good look, Yang Bayuan then looked at Tsurumi Chuyun and said guiltily: "I'm sorry, miss, it was me who failed to discipline them and made you worry."
"It's okay." She waved her hand and said, "Where are the others?"
"Oh, I sent out all the people early in the morning and have been looking for the child."
"Is there any result?"
"No..." Yang Bayuan shook his head, with a somewhat sad look on his face.
"Tell me the situation carefully."
"Well, it's like this..."
Yang Bayuan briefly told the story. As the end of the year approaches, the big families in the city have begun to prepare for the New Year. Master Qian’s neighbor’s family has also been invited by their boss and may not come back for half a month. , in order to take care of Qian Caijuan, she will stay at the winery during this time.
This is not a rare thing. Before anything happened to the winery half a year ago, Master Qian often brought Qian Caijuan here and looked after her while working. Everyone was used to it and didn’t think it was anything. Anyway, Qian Caijuan Nothing would happen to the child Caijuan in the winery, so she didn't take a closer look.
But just yesterday, Qian Caijuan didn't know where she went, and she never showed up, and the workers didn't pay much attention to it. It wasn't until the end of the day when Master Qian was about to go home that Master Qian yelled for a long time but didn't notice Qian Caijuan's appearance. Something happened to the child.
At that time, Yang Bayuan was not careless and immediately summoned workers to look for him. However, there was no one on the street at night. He searched the streets and alleys and found a person. In the middle of the night, Yang Bayuan asked the workers to go back first and continue the search in the morning. Qian Caijuan, I would like to ask if anyone has seen her.
"Miss, I think this is a bit... As you know, people often disappear in our area for no apparent reason. No one who disappears can be found."
