The heroine is a sleeping beauty

Chapter 829 Demon Sect Demon Girl (42)

The two set off again, and found the home of the Xue family's former servant within a few days.

Xue Ci explained for Tang Shi while knocking on the door, "That day was the day when Xiao Zhong went home to visit his relatives, so he escaped a catastrophe."

Some time ago he found some clues, and it took him some time to get his address.

He figured the man should know something.

But he knocked on the door for a long time, but still no one opened the door, Tang Shi said suspiciously.

"Maybe something happened when I went out."

"Then we'll come back later."

Xue Ci was a little disappointed, but at this time a small head poked out from the next door, it was a young boy.

The boy's tone was immature, "Are you looking for Uncle Zhong?" His voice didn't stop.

"A few days ago we heard the sound of someone fighting next door, and we never saw Uncle Zhong again."

He wanted to say something more, but the child's mother dragged him back.

"You child, what are you talking about, go back and study your homework."

"Mom, I'm not wrong."

The voice of the child's retort became farther and farther away, and Xue Ci's face became more gloomy.

"It looks like someone is following him."

"Go in and have a look."

Tang Shi scolded people in his heart, but his face was calm, the two of them climbed over the wall and entered without disturbing others.

It's a pity that the room is empty, there is no one, and even the things inside are messy, and it seems that there has been a fight.

Xue Ci's face was dark, and he gritted his teeth, "Perhaps those people have already discovered that I was looking into what happened back then."

"To tell you the truth, Hong Wuji has been looking for me everywhere recently."

Tang Shi reminded her, meaning that the Devil's Cult didn't have the time to do this. In fact, she was a little worried that Xue Ci had gone in the wrong direction, so as not to be tricked by the Ling family.

Thinking of this, she felt a little annoyed. She knew the truth but couldn't tell him.

If she said that it was the Ling family and there was no evidence, it would be impossible to explain how she knew these things.

So I can only remind him little by little.

"Well, it looks like someone else."

Xue Ci was very angry, but he had no choice but to take Tang Shi to a nearby inn.

This time Xue Ci finally didn't have to ask Xiao Er to put the room next to her, but opened a room directly.

Because Tang Shi already knew Xue Ci's identity, he no longer wore a mask.

However, considering that Hong Wuji is still looking for him, Tang Shi continues to wear the curtain.

It's just that neither of them expected that the person Xue Ci was looking for came to the door.

At that time, Tang Shi and Xue Ci were just about to leave the inn to inquire about the news, when a beggar rushed up.

"Master, I am Xiao Zhong."

He was dressed in tatters, his face was dark, and he looked very embarrassed.

Xue Ci was very happy, but unfortunately the waiter at the inn refused to let him in because of his miserable appearance.

Xue Ci and Tang Shi could only take him quietly into their room through the window.

"How did you become like this?"

Xue Ci frowned slightly, although Xiao Zhong's family is not rich, but it is not enough to be a beggar.

Xue Zhong wiped away his tears, "I don't want to, but someone is chasing and killing me, and they can't find me unless it's like this."

He felt sad when he said it, although he was not a housekeeper in the Xue family back then, he was the housekeeper's apprentice.

He lived a pretty good life, but he didn't expect to become a beggar now.

"them?"

Xue Ci grasped the point of the words, "Are those the ones who killed my parents?"

His last sentence was very cold, as if there was ice in his mouth, Xue Zhong originally wanted to answer.

When I saw the Tang poetry next to me, I was a little hesitant, because I have been avoiding it all these years.

Xue Ci waved his hand indifferently, "She is my wife, you don't have to avoid her."
