I have a Secret

Wisps of sandalwood fragrance wafted in, rippling in the bed curtain, Huang Dan lay still.

As soon as he woke up, the pain in his left shoulder burrowed into his skull.

Last night, the original owner, Song Wang, invited his classmate Ye Lan to meet at the teahouse on West Street. Just as he walked into the alley not far from the teahouse, an evil wind suddenly blew up.

The original owner fell to the ground and fell into a coma.

Not only that, all the valuables on his body were taken away by the thief, not even a coat was left for him.

Fortunately, the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and this season will not freeze to death.

Huang Dan frowned, the left shoulder of this body was hit by something, not only the flesh, but even the bones were damaged.

He thought, the original owner probably met that monster.

However, the fact that the original owner was not eaten meant that the other party's target was not him, at most they were just passing by, leaving behind a gust of wind.

Huang Dan was thinking about something when he heard an old voice full of surprise, "Ah Wang, you've woken up, you can't scare grandma like this anymore!"

He took a look at the old lady in Chinese clothes, Mrs. Song Ying, the grandmother of the original owner, her hair was almost completely white, deep and shallow wrinkles spread out at the corners of her eyes, but her demeanor was very dignified.

It is something that every lady carries in her bones, she is born with it until she dies.

Song Ying is the eldest daughter of the Ying family. She is from a wealthy family. She is smart and wise.

At that time, the still very young old man Song Yushu Linfeng was the most valued among the direct descendants of the Song family. Father Song directly handed over a tea garden to him to manage.

The first time he saw Song Ying's family, Mr. Song fell in love with him. He spent a lot of effort to catch up with him.

Mr. Song carried eight big sedan chairs, beat gongs and drums all the way along the East Street, and married the Song Yun family in a mighty way.

This man is easy to be insatiable, the flowers at home are blooming brightly, but he wants to touch wild flowers.

The Song family didn't take it seriously, and the Ying family also considered the relationship of interests for the sake of the friendship between the two families, and went to comfort their daughter, saying earnestly that it's normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, don't care how many concubines he has, the position of the big house is yours , Give the Song family one or two more sons, and no one will be able to take away what belongs to you.

Mrs. Song Ying recognized the reality and dug out her emotions from her heart with her own hands. From then on, she was only the eldest daughter-in-law of the Song family. spouse.

Well, there are so many wild flowers outside that the eyes are dazzled. When Mr. Song comes across one, there will be two, three, four.

In a few years, Mr. Song got several younger sisters for the Song Ying family.

The mayor's people are waiting to watch the excitement.

But they never expected that the Song Ying family did not use any means behind the scenes to kill the second, third, and fourth bedrooms, but they got along very well with them as sisters.

This is a big deal.

Song Ying thought clearly in her heart that even if those few were gone, there would be others. Instead of wasting time and doing nothing in vain, she might as well concentrate on raising her children.

However, the Song Ying family did not allow those concubines to be pregnant with the sons of the Song family. She did not want her children to be involved in the family's infighting in the future. Whether it was success or failure, it would not be a good experience.

So Song Ying paved a smooth and lonely road for the child.

A man is so flirtatious, he can't control his lower body, and his own life depends on it.

Mr. Song died on the couch of an oiran in the Land of Fireworks before he was 40 years old. Mrs. Song Ying calmly took his servants to collect his body.

There was an uproar about the incident in the town, and it took a long time for it to subside.

As soon as Mr. Song died, the wives and concubines who still had charm became widows. One year or two years passed, those families had no children and had nothing to do all day long. They couldn't bear the loneliness and proposed to leave one after another. , Song Ying agreed one by one.

She negotiated with the patriarch with an ability that even a man might not be able to do. She dealt with Mr. Song's brothers while educating the children. In the end, she became the head of the Song family and got a chastity archway.

Later, an incident happened, which was the most regrettable and unbearable memory of Song Ying.

The Song family has a great career, and after being suppressed, those side branches even joined forces in private to bring down the Song Ying family.

The original owner's father, the only son of Song Ying's family, believed in the wrong people because of his pure heart, and finally died in family disputes with his wife, both of whom had just turned [-] when they died.

Fortunately, he left incense for the Song family before his death.

Song Ying walked out of the grief of losing his son, avenged his son, raised his grandson with all his heart, pinned all his hopes on him, and waited for him to grow up and take over the property he had guarded all his life.

Now, those concubines have long been ill and died, only Song Ying is still alive, her spirit is very good, she has a high prestige in the town, no matter who she is, she will be respected three points.

Huang Dan's thoughts came back, he glanced at the old lady's feet from the corner of his eye, they were very small, he was surprised, could he walk?

Seeing that her grandson was silent and his eyes were still empty, Song Ying called out, "Ah Wang?"

Huang Dan spoke, his voice was muddy and indistinct, "Grandma, I'm thirsty."

Song Yingshi turned her head, "Juan'er."

The door was pushed open, and a little girl walked in with downcast eyes. She was wearing a gray-blue cloth dress, with a long braid on the back and a row of bangs on the forehead, keeping her eyebrows and eyes tame.

Juan'er is a mute, she can't speak, and bowed in the house to salute.

Song Yingshi said, "Go get a glass of water."

Juaner immediately followed suit.

Huang Dan took a look at the little girl named Juan'er, this is the original owner's personal servant girl, Song Ying's arrangement was for him to make room for him, so that he could learn about the affairs of the room before getting married, so as not to make trouble on the wedding night If there is any joke, if it gets out, it will damage the face of the Song family.

The original owner came back from overseas and drank a lot of foreign ink. He was open-minded and knew a lot. He dismissed some traditional and conservative concepts. He clearly told the old lady that he would be absolutely loyal to the other half and would not be married before marriage. Have sex with other people.

Song Ying had another way of thinking, she couldn't convince her grandson, and his grandson didn't even try to convince her, so she said, let's just stay by my side and serve her.

The original owner disagrees.

Juan'er was kicked out of the house the next day.

The original owner saw Juan'er being bullied by some hooligans on the street, her clothes were torn and her face was bruised, so he asked his servants to stop her, and asked Song Ying when he returned.

Song Ying took a sip of tea and said that there are no idlers in the house, since you don't want Juan'er to serve you, it's useless to keep it.

She also said that Juan'er has no father and no mother, looks like a water spirit, and has no strength to restrain a chicken. Even if she is not sold to a brothel and ruined by local hooligans, her life will not be much better.

The original owner couldn't bear it and kept Juan'er.

It was a test, but the result disappointed and worried Song Ying. Her grandson was just like her son, with a soft heart. How could she rest assured that she would hand over Nuoda's family business to her grandson?

The original owner didn't know the meaning of it. What he admired was the kind of Ye Lan who had the same cultural background as his own, was lively and cheerful, and had something to talk about, instead of just serving tea and water, staying in a big house, the sky was only the size of a yard, I've never seen a little maid with insomnia.

Juan'er stepped forward to offer tea.

Huang Dan said, "I'll do it myself."

Song Ying didn't say anything.

Juan'er's face turned pale, she bit her lower lip, her hand holding the teacup was trembling.

Huang Dan supported the bed with his right hand and sat up, moving that arm, "Grandma, look, I'm really fine."

Song Ying said, "The one on the left should also move a few times for Grandma to see."

Yellow list, "..."

"Don't be brave, the doctor came here and said that your left shoulder was injured, you should pay more attention."

Song Ying sighed, "Ah Wang, you don't know that when you were brought back, you almost scared grandma."

Huang Dan can understand, the old lady has no children, only one grandson, very precious.

Song Ying said, "Ye Lan, the youngest daughter of the Ye family, is good-looking, but she has a lot of tricks and doesn't have any rules for doing things. She is a classmate with you. You two came back together, and you must have had contact. If you really have that If you think about it, grandma will go to Ye's house in person."

Her tone changed, and she became a little harsh, "This world is very chaotic, so don't run out at night, grandma is worried, and it's not good for Ye Lan's reputation."

Huang Dan said, "I am not with her..."

"Okay, let's talk about these things later." Interrupting grandson, Song Ying tucked him in the quilt, "You have a good rest."

"Juan'er, help me back to my room."

Juan'er supported Song Yingshi to go out, and she was extra careful when she stepped over the threshold, for fear that someone would fall, and there would be some good or bad.

Huang Dan lay on the bed for several days, his butt hurt. He was only injured in his shoulder, and his legs were fine, but his body was weak and boring. After walking two steps, his eyes turned black.

After lying down for more than half a month, Huang Dan recovered, feeling that the energy in his body was full. When he walked out of the house, he saw a winding corridor. Looking to the left, he saw a large garden.

There was a wind blowing, with the sound of rushing water.

Huang Dan stretched his waist, he was very handsome against the white suit, "Juan'er, has anything happened in the town during this time?"

Juan'er shook her head.

Huang Dan asked again, "What about the family?"

Juaner still shook her head.

Huang Dan said, "I forgot, you can't speak."

Juan'er wasn't sad at all, probably she had become numb for a long time, got used to it, and accepted her fate.

Huang Dan said, "Forget it, I'm just asking casually."

Juan'er lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes, straightening his suit with her thin white hands, smoothing out the fine wrinkles.

With one hand in his pocket, Huang walked on the promenade, "Don't follow me, I'm going for a walk on the street, I'll be back later."

Juan'er ran up to Huang Dan, opened her mouth a few times, and pointed in a direction with her finger.

Huang Dan glanced at the old lady's residence in that direction, he raised his eyebrows, "You mean, grandma won't let me go out?"

Juan'er nodded, her eyes were round and big, with a little innocence unique to this age, as well as timidity and fear that did not belong to this age.

Huang Dan grabbed her arm and pulled it to the side with little force, "I'll go tell grandma."

Juan'er was stunned, she touched the arm that was touched, a blush appeared on her face, she shook her head vigorously, patted her face to calm herself down, and hurriedly chased after her.

Huang Dan saw the old lady in the front hall, and a fat middle-aged man. He was one of the few squires in the town, and he was Boss Zhang who opened a medicine shop.

The original owner had very little time in the town, and he didn't know much about the squires, so he didn't have much memory to refer to.

As soon as Boss Zhang saw the yellow sheet, he put down the teacup and stood up from the chair, his face was piled up, "Nephew, I just came back from other places two days ago, and there are some medicinal materials in the batch of medicinal materials in my hand. The few medicines are top-grade for nourishing qi and blood, so I just wanted to send them to you to recuperate your body."

Huang Dan said, "You're welcome."

Boss Zhang immediately put on a look of being flattered, "Nephew, what are you talking about? If it weren't for the old lady's help, my medicine shop would have been ruined by now."

Huang Dan, "Oh."

Boss Zhang was full of flattery with the word "oh", he couldn't take it anymore, he couldn't help being a little shocked, he didn't expect that the old woman's grandson was quite scheming, and used this method to embarrass him.

As evidenced by the world, Huang Dan really didn't think so much.

Boss Zhang started another topic, "It's not been peaceful recently. As soon as I came back, I heard that someone disappeared for no reason. There was more than one person who was not alive or dead. Do you think it is strange?"

Huang Dan's eyes flashed, "Really?"

Boss Zhang said, "Yes, the county lord didn't make any movement either. I don't know what that means."

He tutted, "There is one more thing, you guys have heard that the bandit den in Spider Ridge was taken over by someone, and the blood is all over the mountains and plains."

How Huang Dannao nourishes blood spreads all over the mountains and plains, "Boss Zhang has traveled all over the world and knows a lot."

Boss Zhang became complacent, lost his mind, and talked more and more, and the more outrageous he said, most of them were nonsense that only a child would believe, such as ghosts and ghosts.

He said that when he went to the countryside to collect rent in his early years, he encountered a strange thing.

Huang Dan listened eagerly, and suddenly heard the sound of "bang", his thoughts were disrupted, and so was Boss Zhang.

Song Ying put the teacup on the table, obviously looking down.

"My nephew must have something important to do, so I won't bother you."

As soon as the subject changed, Boss Zhang picked up his black top hat, put it on his head in a decent manner, and flicked the non-existent dust on the gray gown, "Old lady, I'll leave the chamber of commerce to you."

The yellow sheet is clear, it turns out that they are asking for something.

He felt a little pity that the story had only heard the beginning.

Song Ying asked, "Ah Wang, what are you doing when you're not lying in the house?"

Huang Dan told the story.

Song Ying stood up holding the crutch next to him, there was no room for negotiation, "No."

Huang Dan imitated the original owner, calling out in a coquettish tone, "Grandma."

Song Ying's attitude was tough, "Go back and stay, we'll talk about it later."

Huang Dan sat down on the chair and blatantly threatened, "Grandma, if you don't let me go out, I won't eat."

Song Ying thumped his crutch hard, "Nonsense!"

Huang Dan rested his chin, and slowly tapped the table with his fingers.

Angered by her grandson, Song Ying left with a cane, rested in bed, and called the housekeeper, "Ah Wang is going to the street, you pick a few servants to follow."

The butler is the oldest in the mansion, his face is full of wrinkles, "Yes, old lady."

The Song Ying family said, "The branch will say, if the young master loses a single strand of hair, the Song family will not keep them."

The housekeeper responded, closed the door and left.

Song Yingshi leaned against the head of the bed, his sharp eyes gradually clouded and covered with a layer of blur.

Her thoughts drifted far away, and she didn't know which year, which day, which place, who were there, what they were doing, and what they were talking about.

Song Ying suddenly came back to her senses, the panic in her eyes had not yet faded, it took her a while to calm down, and she sighed, "I hope it's not..."

At the Dragon Boat Festival, every household in the town puts a small handful of moxa sticks and calamus on the lintel, or hangs them in the hall or on the bedside.

People believed that too.

Huang Dan was followed by a few servants, all of whom were top-notch, all looked alert, an invisible quick kill spread out from among them, pedestrians on the street hurriedly avoided from a long distance, lest they would cause trouble.

There was a steady stream of noise, and Huang Dan walked very slowly, and he chose places that were lively and conspicuous, where the crowds were concentrated.

After all, judging from the task content of that monster, it is a monster who is lonely, empty, and so boring that he wants someone to play with him.

But, no matter what, cannibalism is wrong.

Huang Dan walked and looked around, the town is quite big, East Avenue is the main road, wide and long, with shops on both sides, with everything you need for food and clothing, the scene is very lively, horse-drawn carriages pass by one by one, The sound of hoofbeats disappeared, and then again.

Huang Dan pays attention to his surroundings, the clothes of the passers-by on the street are very different, for the men, some are wearing mandarin jackets, some are long gowns, very few people are wearing suits like his, and the hairstyles of women are enough for him to see, until The ones that are hot, the ones that are hot, the ones that are long, the ones that are short, the ones with or without a bun, each has its own characteristics.

He can see that this is an embarrassing era, hanging on the tail of ancient times, which leads to a point. If you want to observe a person, you can know the background and family background of the other person just by looking at their hairstyle and clothing.

"Mr. System, what are the characteristics of a demon? Is it different from ordinary people in terms of appearance, diet, and living habits?"

System, "I believe that since the demon has become a member of the town, it means that it is the same as ordinary people."

Huang Dan asked, "Then how do I find it?"

He frowned, "Mr. System, needless to say the official answer, I know you can't do anything."

System, "Sorry."

Huang Dan, "It's okay, let me think about it."

He was worried, his eyes were full of people with two legs, walking around there, the demon turned into one of them, he didn't have any special abilities, so he couldn't find it at all.

In the last world, Huang Dan regarded everyone as a murderer, but in this world, he regarded everyone as a demon.

It's better to walk first than to stay where you are.

"Song Wang!"

There was a shout from behind, Huang Dan stopped, turned around and saw the young woman who came over with curly hair, charming and sexy.

She is Ye Lan, the youngest daughter of the Ye family, the apple of her eye.

A servant stopped Ye Lan.

Huang Dan said, "That's my classmate."

The servant said truthfully, "Young master, please tell me, the old lady, we must take good care of you. If you lose a hair, we will be kicked out of the Song family."

Huang Dan lowered his head and found two strands of hair on his suit, "Did you see that? My strands of hair have already fallen out."

The servant, "..."

Huang Dan blew the hair out, "Don't worry, my grandma is not unreasonable."

A few servants said, the old lady is right.

Huang Dan glanced at Ye Lan who kept waving to him, "I want to say a few words to my classmate now, you can follow."

The servants exchanged glances and stepped aside.

There is a long, thin river in the town. It is said that a beggar thought it looked like an earthworm, so he called it the Earthworm River.

Now, the river has become a landscape in Yueshan Town, famous far and wide.

When foreigners come, they will go to the river for a walk.

Huang Dan and Ye Lan stood side by side by the river, gusts of hot wind hit their faces, and they felt a little dizzy.

Speaking of which, Huang Dan is also unlucky. He is afraid of heat, and he doesn't like summer the most. It was summer when he traveled to the first world, but it was still the second world.

What's even more frightening is that although the first world didn't have air conditioners or electric fans, they wore few clothes and could walk barefoot and shirtless, while the second world...

Huang Dan looked at his body, hey.

None of the servants followed closely. They couldn't listen to what the master said. If they heard it, it would be very painful, because the most difficult thing in the world is to keep their mouths shut.

Ye Lan was wearing a light purple embroidered cheongsam with neither high nor low slits. Inside the skirt were two fair and slender legs. She just ran out of a banquet and felt bored, "Song Wang, Do you yearn for love?"

Huang Dan said, "Longing."

Ye Lan was slightly stunned, and she laughed out loud, "I've never seen you so straightforward. I asked you before, what reason are you talking to me, it's better now."

Huang Dan found a fragment about Ye Lan in the original owner's memory.

The original owner was unrequited love, and Ye Lan had someone she liked in her heart. To be precise, she didn't know who it was, it was just a back view, saying that she was playing under the arcade when the building suddenly collapsed, and someone rescued her. I only saw a figure from the back, and the obsession was planted at that time.

Ye Lan has been inquiring about it, and after returning from overseas, she is still looking for it.

"Song Wang, times have changed, and will continue to change, but Yueshan Town is still the same as before, pedantic, ignorant, ignorant, feudal, and stubborn."

A bit of melancholy appeared in Ye Lan's eyes, "The air here is depressing, I really don't want to come back."

Huang Dan was silent.

Ye Lan opened the small bag, took out a dark black cigarette case, and bit a cigarette, "What happened to you that night?"

Huang Dan said, "I don't know."

Ye Lan went to find the lighter, and after the click, her red lips parted slightly, and she exhaled a smoke ring, skillfully said, "I waited in the teahouse for a while, and only then did I know that something happened to you after I heard the report from the servant."

Huang Dan smelled the smoke and remembered a brand called Qixi.

"I went to your house the next day. You were unconscious, and the old lady didn't have the heart to see me." Ye Lan smiled, "It's a good thing you're fine, otherwise I'd feel really bad about it. If I hadn't made an appointment with you, You won't come out either."

Huang Dan said, "I heard it's been a bit chaotic recently."

Ye Lan smoked a cigarette, "Well, my parents specifically told me not to go out alone, Song Wang, have you heard any rumors?"

Huang Dan seemed to mention it casually, "It seems that someone is missing."

Hearing this, Ye Lan tilted her head and said in surprise, "It's true, why didn't you see a single arrester?"

Huang Dan shrugged, "Who knows."

Ye Lan asked, "Do you want one? My new brand."

Huang Dan doesn't smoke or drink, and now he suddenly wanted to try it. He took the cigarette from Ye Lan's hand, took a puff after the tobacco was lit, and frowned in disgust.

Ye Lan shook her head, "Young Master, you are really picky."

Holding the pack of cigarettes, she said, "Just this small pack is worth half a year's income for many people."

Huang Dan cut off the cigarette, much worse than Qixi.

Ye Lan is holding the elbow on the right with her left hand, a cigarette between her slender fingers, her bright red nails are particularly dazzling, "There is a tailor shop on South Street, and the master craftsmen there are good at work, come with me for a walk?"

Huang Dan looked at the servants behind him.

Ye Lan said with a smile, "You get married early and let the old lady have a great-grandson, so she won't stare at you like this."

Huang Dan said, "It's hard to find a good eye."

Ye Lan took a few puffs of cigarettes, then suddenly said, "What about me? What do you think of me?"

Huang Dan looked down.

Ye Lan made an exaggerated expression, "Why, I'm not good enough for you?"

Huang Dan looked away, "Love is about consensuality, you are not interested in me."

"You saw it." Ye Lan said, "I think your family must also arrange a marriage for you. When you have nowhere to go, it's better for us to make do with each other."

She flicked off the cigarette ash, "My sweetheart is not a little boy like you, he is a macho man, taller and stronger than you, and he can hold me up with one hand."

Huang Dan looked at Ye Lan. Although he was thin, his frame was here, so he was half a head shorter than him. When he wore high heels, he was taller than him, and he could hold it up with one hand?

If that person can support Ye Lan, then it is not a problem to support him.

Huang Dan raised his eyelids, only a demon can do it, right? "Ye Lan, how old were you when the accident happened?"

Ye Lan said, "11 years old."

Huang Dan said, "You are 25 now."

Ye Lan corrected, "24, thank you."

Yellow list, "..."

Ye Lan, "Tomorrow is my 25th birthday."

Huang Dan is speechless, is there a difference? "That said, it's been 14 years and the person you're looking for is old."

The smoke between Ye Lan's fingers trembled, her eyes were firm and full of tenderness, "It doesn't matter if you are old or disabled, as long as he is still alive."

Huang Dan couldn't understand, "Even if you stood face to face with him, you wouldn't recognize him."

Ye Lan didn't feel discouraged at all, "I respond telepathically."

Huang Dan twitched his lips, so he believed it for once, maybe he had a connection with that monster.

Ye Lan finished smoking, "Do you want to go to South Street?"

Huang Dan shook his head, "No, I can't go back too late."

Ye Lan buckled the small bag, "Okay, you should go back early, don't wander around in the street, I'll go by myself."

Huang Dan looked at the back of the woman leaving, "It's pretty nice."

"It has charm, doesn't it, Mr. System."

"Yes."

Huang Dan walked along the Earthworm River. According to the normal number of routes, the demon should be around him. Even if he was not there at the beginning, he would come to him later because of certain things and certain people.

who can that be?

There are a lot of servants in the house, accountants, butlers, back kitchens, these all add up, and it takes a lot of work to check.

The first world is eliminated by death, and this method is not possible for the time being.

Huang Dan didn't even have a single object of suspicion.

At night, when the Ye family came to the house, Huang Dan found out that Ye Lan was missing.

Father Ye didn't even take a sip of tea, and when he saw Huang Dan coming out, he hurriedly asked, "Nephew, are you staying with my family Lan Lan this afternoon?"

Huang Dan told the truth.

After hearing this, Father Ye immediately went to the tailor shop on South Street.

Song Ying asked his grandson, "Ah Wang, did Ye Lan tell you anything else?"

Huang Dan said, "No."

An elite light flashed in Song Bin's eyes, "You lied to grandma."

The corner of Huang Dan's mouth twitched, this old lady was not easy to dismiss, "Ye Lan said she didn't want to come back, her family arranged a marriage, she didn't like it."

The sharpness in Song Ying's eyes disappeared, "Life is alive, how can there be so many likes."

Huang Dan doesn't understand, doesn't like it, so how can they live together?Just as he was about to speak, he heard the old lady ask, "Is Ye Lan opposed to that marriage, so he ran away from home?"

"Not quite like it."

Huang Dan said, "Ye Lan is not someone who would run away."

Maybe something went wrong.

At the door of the tailor shop, a servant yelled loudly, "Open the door! Open the door for me!"

An impatient voice came from inside, and the tailor shop owner put on his coat and opened the door latch, "Who is it, it's so late, do you want someone...you...what do you want to do?"

The tailor shop owner was pushed to the ground vigorously. He saw a group of men in gray and screamed in fright.

The servant stepped back and stood beside the carriage respectfully, not at all arrogant just now, "Master."

The curtain of the car was opened, Father Ye stepped on the back of the servant, and looked down at the tailor shop owner condescendingly, "I'm going to ask you something, you answer honestly, if you have something to hide, you don't even think about this shop."

Tailor shop owner Xiao Jipeimi nodded, saying that he must tell the truth.

Father Ye asked if he had seen his daughter during the day.

There was a drop of cold sweat dripping from the forehead of the tailor shop owner, and he could already guess what was going on. It was really unlucky. After finally meeting such a distinguished guest as Miss Ye family, he thought he could make a fortune, and he would not worry about food and clothing for the second half of the year. As a result, the other party didn't buy anything and got him into trouble.

"I have seen."

Father Ye signaled, and the servant stepped forward, grabbed the tailor shop owner by the collar, and lifted him up.

The tailor shop owner tied his tongue, "Ke Ke Ke will leave soon!"

Father Ye asked, "Which direction are you going?"

"No, I don't know."

The owner of the tailor shop shook his head like a rattle and recalled, "There were several people in the shop at that time. I was busy taking care of the business, so I didn't look at it. I just remembered that Miss Ye was in a hurry and ran out in a hurry, as if she was chasing something. Man, he didn't even bring a bag."

Father Ye frowned deeply, "Bao?"

He raised his hand, and the owner of the tailor shop was put down. He scrambled to the counter and took out a small black bag, "That's it."

Father Ye took it from the servants, opened the small bag to look, there were cigarette cases, lighters, and lipstick brought back from abroad, but his expression became more serious.

My daughter has always had a stable temper since she was a child, neither impetuous nor impetuous, what on earth did she see that made her panic so much that she even left her bag behind.

The atmosphere in the Ye family hall was dull.

Father Ye was sitting on top, and below was Second Aunt Bai Ying.

Bai Ying covered her lips with a handkerchief, and said in a soft voice, "Master, if you ask me, Lan Lan is very sensible, she must be delayed by something outside."

Father Ye slapped the table, "What can be the matter, why don't you come back so late?"

Baiying flicked the handkerchief, well, it's better not to say anything.

She didn't support her son or daughter in the early years, but now this son is well-raised, he is only three years old, he is playing around, he doesn't understand anything, and he can't stay, so he clamors for riding a horse.

Normally, Baiying would ask her servants to kneel on the ground for her precious son to ride on. Now that something happened at home, she didn't dare to disturb the master at this time, so she hugged her son on her lap and coaxed her in a low voice.

The child didn't listen, so he howled dryly, without any tears in his eyes, "No, I'm going to ride a horse."

Master Ye threw the teacup out, "Give me peace!"

Baiying was startled.

As soon as the child's face turned pale, he cried out of fright, tears streaming down his face.

Father Ye's eyes widened, and Bai Ying began to sob, "Master, Lan Lan is a descendant of your Ye family, isn't my son? He is still so young, why are you scaring him? If something goes wrong, How am I going to live?"

"Go quickly."

Father Ye waved his hands irritably, and asked the housekeeper to forcibly "please" the mother and son away.

It was late at night, and the servants who went out searched from house to house, and came back in batches, but there was no news. They also wondered, such a big living person, could it be possible to grow wings and fly?

Father Ye sat in the hall and sighed.

The wife was seriously injured when she gave birth to Lanlan, and she left him not long after. He was busy with the family business and had to take care of all aspects. Later, he met a fireworks girl at the wine table and made her pregnant. , I got married.

Lanlan quarreled with him, saying that she should not stay at home and was going abroad, so he had to make arrangements.

Over the years, the relationship between their father and daughter has grown even stronger.

Ye Lan didn't come back all night.

Father Ye took a few bank notes and went to see the county master.

In the morning, the head catcher showed up in the town with a few catchers. They were all dressed in black and held a knife in their hands. When people saw them, they whispered that something big had happened.

Huang Dan was bored eating snacks in the garden, but fortunately, the points bag dropped in his mind from time to time, so he caught three and quickly saved them up.

Ever since he died of pain once, Huang Dan knew that the chrysanthemum spirit was healed, and he needed points to buy that stuff.

Juan'er fanned him from behind.

A plate of snacks on the table was eaten by Huang Dan, leaving a small piece, and there was a faint movement outside the wall, which was the sound of chaotic footsteps.

Huang Dan asked subconsciously, "What's wrong?"

Juan'er shook her head.

Huang Dan wiped his hands with a handkerchief, walked quickly through the corridor and hall, and appeared outside the door.

An uncle ran past him, and he stopped him, "Uncle, is something wrong?"

The uncle panted with his arms crossed, "Yes, something happened."

"It's too scary." He was panicked and trembling when he spoke, "Master Song, I'm really not bragging, it's all gone, the hands and feet are all gone, just, there's only a little left."

Huang Dan, "...so what's the matter?"

The uncle was very ink-stained, and before he could say anything, a passer-by shouted, "He's dead—"

Huang Dan frowned, and followed without saying a word.

It wasn't Ye Lan who died, it was a peddler who disappeared a few days ago. He usually walked around the streets to buy and sell small items, and there was no one at home, so even if he disappeared, it didn't cause much commotion.

It was discovered by a woodcutter, and he often took his big yellow dog with him when he went to the mountains to cut firewood.

Today the big yellow dog was very strange, he kept running to one place, and Chaifu couldn’t even kick him away. He glanced inadvertently and found the wreckage in the grass, tattered clothes, and some unknown meat and bones. , exudes a fishy smell.

The big yellow dog sniffed the meaty bones and gnawed.

Chai Fu screamed in fright, and swung the hatchet several times, so his big yellow dog stopped chewing.

Many people in the town went to see it, and they couldn't bear to vomit after watching it, it was so disgusting.

It was not until several neighbors of the salesman recognized the clothes that he was identified.

Most people are spreading rumors that there are tigers on the mountain, and the salesman ran up the mountain and was accidentally eaten by the tiger, leaving only a few big bones with minced meat.

There are also people who have a different opinion. Why does the salesman go up the mountain? Could it be that he wants to sell the goods to flowers, plants and trees?What's more, there are many farmers near the mountain, and many woodcutters also go there every day, so why haven't I heard of anyone doing anything.

The teahouses on West Street are full of dragons and snakes. If anyone wants to inquire about something and fails to find out there, then it is useless.

Huang Dan sat at a table and asked for a pot of Longjing.

Everyone in the teahouse was talking about the salesman, spitting wildly.

"What kind of tiger, you laughed your teeth out, okay? My father, my grandfather, my grandparents, and my three generations are all firewood. It is no exaggeration to say that I can walk from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain with my eyes closed. come down."

A big man with a dark face said in a rough voice, "Don't say it's me, even my grandfather has never seen a tiger. There are only rabbits, pheasants, and wild boars in the mountains. There are no beasts that eat people."

"I also don't think it's possible." After a scholar said that sentence, his tone dropped a lot, "I heard from my teacher that there are demons in the world, could it be the demons who did it?"

Everyone else who heard it laughed loudly, "Monster? It's not as credible as a tiger!"

The scholar was very serious and didn't mean to be joking, he said nervously, "Shh,
