Rebirth of Fengmou

Chapter 156.Suspicious
Wei Jiarui couldn't figure out what Du Lanyan was thinking, but he believed what she said. Otherwise, in the middle of the night, in the deep mountains and old forests, how could a weak woman have the courage to leave the temple that could give her safety?
"Fool, don't do this next time." The inexplicable Wei Jiarui actually said such a sentence, and there was a hint of affection in his tone.

Du Lanyan frowned, feeling a chill, she looked up at Wei Jiarui in confusion, but Wei Jiarui didn't look at her, he lowered his head and seriously blew the porridge in the bowl, Du Lanyan shivered slightly, feeling goosebumps Pimples fell all over the floor.

"I went to the lake the day before yesterday and was kidnapped. I was in the temple when I woke up. Someone brought some food yesterday morning, but at night, I found no one. I broke the tie on the edge of the table leg. Holding the rope with both hands, I didn’t dare to go out when it was dark outside, so I wanted to wait for the dawn before finding my way back, but suddenly a man jumped out from behind the stone statue, he held me hostage, and threatened you.”

Du Lanyan was chilled by Wei Jiarui's "fool" and temporarily lost her appetite, so she took this opportunity to explain why she was there.

At the end, he asked Wei Jiarui why he was there.

Recently, a group of human traffickers appeared in Taiping City. They only picked young boys and girls to kill them. They committed countless crimes. They all used the funeral team to cover up the kidnapped people.

Surrounded by mountains and leaning on the Wanrong River, there were several villages a long time ago. Later, a plague killed all the people here, and gradually no one lived here. The leader of the trafficker accidentally discovered that there were several villages here. The ruined temples are connected to each other, so they chose this place as a stronghold to carry out the business of human trafficking.

Wei Jiarui tracked down and investigated for several days, and finally managed to rescue the victims. Most of the traffickers were captured, except for the leader who escaped from the secret road. He chased all the way, and just ran to the ruined temple, where he met Du Lanyan.

After hearing his explanation, Du Lanyan realized after careful reflection that the reason why Wei Jiali wanted to arrest her in that way was to clear the relationship so that no one would suspect him, and she was sure that before that, Well, Wei Jiali must have found out the stronghold of the group of traffickers first, but he didn't lead people to capture them himself, but revealed the news to Wei Jiarui, and asked Wei Jiarui to arrest them, thus arranging his own rescue.

From this point of view, the scene of kidnapping himself was something he had planned a long time ago. Regardless of whether she agreed that day or not, she would be kidnapped in the end, and it didn't matter whether Feng Yichen came or not. Wei Jiarui.

Thinking of this, Du Lanyan couldn't help but sneer in her eyes. This Wei Jiali was really thoughtful, and everything was arranged so reasonably that no one would be suspicious. At the beginning, she thought that she was being held hostage. The person is Wei Jiali's person.

"By the way, where is this place? I remember that I rolled down the hillside last night." Du Lanyan didn't want to get entangled in the topic of meeting with Wei Jiarui. She always felt that the more she talked, the more she would reveal herself, so she simply changed the subject.

"When I found you, you were in a coma. I found this place in the forest and carried you here. There is only one old woman living here alone." Wei Jiarui said, turning his head to signal to the door, Du Lanyan looked along , I saw an old woman standing next to a wooden frame in the yard, on which herbs were drying, and she was rummaging through them.

Du Lanyan narrowed her eyes and looked carefully.

The old woman was wearing a navy blue dress, with a cloth belt of the same color half a finger wide tied on her forehead, a simple bun on her head, and a green hairpin inserted in her head. A few years old, but the body is very tough.

Probably because she noticed Du Lanyan's scrutinizing gaze, she suddenly raised her head to look at Du Lanyan, then smiled and said, "Are you awake?"

Her voice was a little loud, with a little hoarse at the end, and her smile was also a little weird. Although she tried her best to look kind, Du Lanyan felt that his smile was a little fake.

She was arranging herbs outside, but when she saw Du Lanyan woke up, she walked in. She walked a little slowly, but Du Lanyan always felt that her walking posture was a bit unnatural.

"You don't have to worry too much. Although your hand is seriously injured, I have studied medicine and I will definitely make you heal." When he came in and saw Du Lanyan looking at her in confusion, he expressed his comfort.

"It was my mother-in-law who saved me, thank you mother-in-law." Du Lanyan immediately recovered and smiled.

"Oh, you two are so funny. One calls me aunt and the other calls me mother-in-law. I don't know if I should agree." The old woman joked with a smile, looked at Du Lanyan and Wei Jiarui before speaking Said: "Why did you two come to this mountain? This place is remote. I have lived here for decades, and this is the first time I saw someone come in."

"Do you live here alone?" Du Lanyan asked innocently.

"No, I live here with my wife. He died a few years ago, so I'm the only one left." The old woman spoke slightly sadly, but Du Lanyan found that her sadness didn't reach her eyes.

"I'm sorry, mother-in-law." Seeing her being sad, Du Lanyan said apologetically. Although she knew that the old woman was lying, she felt that she was not malicious, so she didn't expose her.

She said that no one had come in in recent decades, but Du Lanyan clearly found that the hairpin she was wearing on her head was the most popular style on the street vendors in recent years. Because of the low quality, only ordinary people liked to wear it, and she was still the princess When I was wearing it, I accidentally saw a servant wearing it, and it looked good, so I asked a few words.

"It's not in the way." The old woman smiled, obviously not wanting to talk about this topic, so she went on to say: "You are too weak, you should lie down and rest for a while, I caught a hare in the trap a few days ago, I will go Stew it to make up for you."

As the old woman spoke, she got up and went out. Du Lanyan quickly thanked her, while the defender Jia Rui helped her to lie down.

"I'll go and see if there's anything I need help with." Helping Du Lanyan to lie down, Wei Jiarui was about to go out, but Du Lanyan held him back.

He turned around and looked at her, she opened her mouth, wanting to say something, finally she smiled at him, said "thank you", and then closed her eyes.

Wei Jiarui frowned slightly, stared at Du Lanyan's face for a few seconds, then went out.

Du Lanyan originally wanted to remind him to beware of that old woman, but after thinking about it, she felt that the old woman was not malicious, so she gave up.

She moved her body slightly and lay down, but something hurt her shoulder. She reached out to touch it, and what touched her shoulder was a pink petal-shaped earring, the petals were crystal clear, and the style belonged to young women. How could the old man have such earrings?
