Tianwai Feixian

Chapter 120
Qian Nanyi just listened to one sentence and understood that this matter might really have something to do with Zhong Xiaoren.
Mr. Zhong is not an idiot, he knows that there must be something tricky about this matter, but there is no evidence now.

Of course, people cannot be punished casually.

Qian Nanyi sighed when he heard what Master Zhong said.

Xu wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and continued: "Master, what should you do with this matter?"

Master Zhong frowned and thought for a while: "Xiao Wu's body was not salvaged from the lake, which means Xiao Wu has nothing to do, and the reason why he didn't come out I think Xiao Wu is for us to find out who killed him. "

Zhong Xiaowu played this game with Master Zhong before.

Zhong Xiaowu was framed by Zhong Xiaoren and beat his younger brother. Master Zhong punished Zhong Xiaowu after he found out. Zhong Xiaowu left a note that night and disappeared immediately.

Later, Mr. Zhong searched many places but failed to find Zhong Xiaowu, but after he found out the truth of the matter, Zhong Xiaowu came back by himself.

Master Zhong was worried that this would still be the case this time.

Mrs. Xu sighed: "That child Xiao Wu is actually very sensitive. You must investigate this matter clearly, sir. If someone really deliberately did this matter, it would be too scary. This is not like before, little one." Small fights between children, this time it killed people."

Qian Nanyi heard what was meant to be expressed in the words.

Master Zhong looked at Qian Nanyi at this time, and said with some concern: "Nanyi, you don't have to worry too much, the lake is stagnant water, there is no other way out of the water, and it is the best thing if Xiao Wu's body is not found, so You don't have to worry too much, I will find Xiaowu as soon as possible."

Master Zhong and Mrs. Xu both knew that Zhong Xiaowu was not dead.

Qian Nanyi nodded, expressing that he was relieved.

When Master Zhong left, Qian Nanyi looked at Xu Shi worriedly and comforted him: "Don't worry too much, godmother, brother will be fine, Zhong Xiaoren did this, right?"

Mrs. Xu nodded without concealing it, touched Qian Nanyi's head, and praised: "You have a good head, I can see the meaning of the letter in detail, you really can see it, just now you cried to Aunt Liu Look, well done, I just don't have evidence, Xiaowu doesn't know where he went now, although it's a good thing that he didn't find the body, but I'm always a little uneasy."

Xu naturally didn't believe that something happened to her son, so she would rather numb herself.

Qian Nanyi hurriedly spoke words of comfort.

"Girl, you don't have to worry too much. Brother will be fine. He learned how to swim when he was with us, and nothing happened when he swam back and forth in the big river, let alone in this lake."

Mrs. Xu didn't know about Zhong Xiaowu's ability to swim, but when she heard Qian Nanyi say this, she was immediately surprised: "You said Xiaowu knew how to swim? Why didn't that child tell me before?"

Qian Nanyi smiled and explained: "It's not that he's worried about you. When he was learning, there were several children standing by to protect him. But he's smart, and he learned it very quickly. As long as his brother is fine, it's fine. I saw Aunt Liu's expression just now, Aunt Liu didn't seem worried, she was gloating."

Xu sighed and said: "Before you came back, Zhong Xiaoren had been interrogated once, but Zhong Xiaoren gritted his teeth and said that he saw Zhong Xiaowu fall into the water on the way back, and the other children in the mansion also said that Zhong Xiaoren and them Together, they didn't see Zhong Xiaowu, and they also said that they went back when Zhong Xiaowu fell into the water, but they didn't see the truth, because Zhong Xiaoren's yard is not very far from Xiaowu's, and the direction is still the same, which can also explain Zhong Xiaoren's if."

This is no evidence.

It's right to think about it. There is no evidence at all. It is true that subjective judgment alone cannot convict a person.

Qian Nanyi thought about it with some distress: "Did Brother Ganniang really not leave the house? And you really don't know where he went?"

Xu shook her head: "If only I knew, I just want to see Xiao Wu soon."

Qian Nanyi thought about it, and wanted to look around by himself.

"Godmother, let's go for a walk by the lake."

Went out of the yard with Mrs. Xu and walked towards the lake.

The water in the lake has been fully churned in the past two days, with the silt at the bottom of the lake, a fishy smell always lingers in the air for a long time.

"The smell in the air is really bad. Your brother fell into the water on the rockery. It is obvious that your brother fell with his back facing the water, because we found a reverse footprint over there."

Xu took Qian Nanyi to the place where Zhong Xiaowu fell into the water, and pointed to Qian Nanyi.

It was getting late at this time.

Qian Nanyi and Xu shi went around, but there was no result.

There are still young men fishing in the lake.

Back at Xiaoyuan, Qian Nanyi felt very distressed.

Zhong Xiaowu was not in this courtyard, obviously this courtyard has lost its popularity.

Qian Nanyi was very tired, especially his lower body, which was in excruciating pain.

Although I have learned to ride a horse, riding a horse is also a physical effort.

In addition, she was very young, so she felt even more exhausted.

The little maid fetched water, and Qian Nanyi sneaked out of the courtyard, closed the door of the Xiaoyuan, and Qian Nanyi was the only one left in the courtyard.

After tidying up, Qian Nanyi lay on the bed, no matter what, getting a good rest is the most important thing, nothing else is important now.

In a daze, Qian Nanyi heard a strange noise coming from outside.

Qian Nanyi watched vigilantly and sat up.

Then lie on the window and look out through the gap.

In the small courtyard, a sneaky person was walking back and forth in the middle of the courtyard.

Qian Nanyi took a look at this person's attire, as well as his height and walking posture.

Although I didn't see the face clearly.

But he also remembered who the person in front of him was.

It was Zhong Xiaowu.

Qian Nanyi hurriedly opened the door.

When Zhong Xiaowu heard Qian Nanyi open the door, he stepped forward excitedly.

"I knew someone was coming in this yard, it must be you." Zhong Xiaowu didn't change much from usual, the only thing that was a little different was that Zhong Xiaowu's clothes were dirty.

Qian Nanyi was also very excited when he saw Zhong Xiaowu, and asked, "Where have you been these two days? The godmother is very worried about you, and why did you fall into the water?"

Qian Nanyi immediately asked all the questions he wanted to ask.

Zhong Xiaowu looked outside the courtyard vigilantly, and then said: "We go into the house to talk, but it's inconvenient to talk outside."

Into the house, did not light a candle.

Through the faint moonlight outside, it's not like you can't see your fingers inside the house.

Qian Nanyi said anxiously: "Will you tell me where you have been hiding for the past two days?"

Zhong Xiaowu chuckled, and said with a smile: "Don't you know how to guess?"

Qian Nanyi suddenly realized and patted his head.

How could she forget that she closed the courtyard door when she was sleeping.

In other words, Zhong Xiaowu is in this courtyard.

"You are hiding in this yard, but this yard is so big, where are you hiding?" Qian Nanyi was puzzled.

Zhong Xiaowu stood up at this moment: "You will know when you follow me."

Qian Nanyi followed Zhong Xiaowu and walked towards Zhong Xiaowu's room.

There is nothing special in Zhong Xiaowu's house.

But Zhong Xiaowu directly took Qian Nanyi and stopped in front of the large wardrobe carved in nanmu wood in the room.

"Nan Yi, is there anything special about looking at the closet?" Zhong Xiaowu asked.

Qian Nanyi came into Zhong Xiaowu's room several times, but he didn't find anything unusual about the cabinet. He shook his head and Qian Nanyi said, "I don't think there's anything unusual there. Don't play tricks here, and tell me what's going on." .”

Qian Nanyi is very impatient.

Zhong Xiaowu smiled slightly, and then opened the door of the nanmu wardrobe.

There are a lot of clothes in the nanmu wardrobe, but most of them are placed on the compartments.

On the contrary, there are very few clothes in the middle of the largest space.

Zhong Xiaowu lit the candle on the side, and asked Qian Nanyi to hold it carefully.

I saw Zhong Xiaowu remove the quilt placed on the largest space, and then uncover the board under the wardrobe.

A dark passage appeared in front of Qian Nanyi's eyes.

"Is there a tunnel here?" Qian Nanyi said in surprise.

Zhong Xiaowu said with a smile: "You didn't think of it, but I dug this tunnel myself."

Master Zhong and Xu's naturally did not allow Zhong Xiaowu to do such a thing, but who is Zhong Xiaowu?

People who dare to run away from home at a young age still dare to do this.

Qian Nanyi no longer knew how to describe his current mood.

"You have nothing to dig some kind of tunnel." Qian Nanyi said in surprise.

Zhong Xiaowu chuckled, and left without explaining to Qian Nanyi.

The tunnels were not well dug.

There are not many steps, and it takes only a few steps to go down to the secret room.

This secret room was dug by Zhong Xiaowu himself, so there was no decoration inside. The earthen walls and land, Zhong Xiaowu lit the candles inside, and then said: "I will come out during the day when there is no one in the yard, and if there are people, I will hide here temporarily. Come out to bed too."

Qian Nanyi also saw that the secret room was not very big, and the space for activities was limited, so Zhong Xiaowu spread a quilt on the floor.

"Then what do you do when you eat?" Qian Nanyi was a little puzzled.

Zhong Xiaowu said with a smile: "At this time, I can go to the kitchen to get food. I have the key to the kitchen door. I can go in and eat before I come out. There are no servants patrolling the inner courtyard. Naturally, I don't have to worry about being discovered. Those maids are better than each other. Sleep to death, where you can find me."

Zhong Xiaowu knew everything in this courtyard very well, so he hid here for so long with confidence.

Qian Nanyi sighed, really didn't know what to say about Zhong Xiaowu.

"Let's go, let's go out." Qian Nanyi felt that it was a bit suffocating.

Zhong Xiaowu actually didn't want to stay here, if it wasn't for what he was going to do next, he wouldn't be willing to kill him either.

Qian Nanyi and Zhong Xiaowu walked out.

Zhong Xiaowu did not close the wardrobe door, but left it open.
