013: Rainy night

It was raining heavily outside, and the sky and the earth were almost connected in a line, with lightning and thunder accompaniment from time to time.

Qi Shan was awakened by the noise knocking on the door after a while. He opened his eyes and got up, tidied up his clothes, and was about to put on his clogs and go to open the door, Chen Tang opened the door first.

The visitor was wearing a straw hat and a raincoat, looking anxious—

It is the village official of Qianjia Village.

Chen Tang turned sideways and invited someone into the house.

"It's raining outside the house, so my father-in-law comes in and talks first."

Murama waved his hand and declined: "No, no."

Qi Shan stepped forward: "Watch the father-in-law looks anxious, but something happened?"

"Did you see A Yan?" The house was stormy and rainy outside. Muramasa's face was wet with rain and was ticking down. He didn't bother to wipe it with his hands, and his voice was trembling a little, "That child... just didn't watch it, and he disappeared!"

Chen Tang said in confusion: "Who is Ayan?"

"It's the child who had sex with Xiao Langjun before."

As soon as he said this, Chen Tang knew who it was.

It turned out to be the child who looked dumb and stupid.

His name is "Ayan".

Chen Tang looked at the situation outside the house and shook his head: "We have been in the house and haven't seen him. When did he disappear?"

Muramasa: "Just just now, at most a quarter of an hour."

When Chen Tang heard this, his expression was so sank that his naked eyes were visible.

A quarter of an hour is fifteen minutes.

The rain outside the house is so raincoats and hats that cannot be stopped. The wind is howling and the heavy rain pours in. You can vaguely hear the howling of wild beasts from the mountains, which is so cunning. A child is missing in this kind of weather. I am afraid that it is not taken away by the jackals, tigers and leopards touched into the village?

This is what Muramasa is most worried about.

He said, "It would be fine if he ran out to play, but he was afraid that he would be taken away by the big insects who went down the mountain..."

In recent years, the drought has been small, the tax revenue has been heavy, and the villagers have not lived well, and the wild animals in the mountains have not lived well, and they often go down the mountain to find food. It is okay to just take away the livestock raised by the villagers, because they are afraid that they will take away the children.

Similar tragedies have occurred three times in the past two years.

Qi Shan took down the hat hanging on the wall and put it on his head, tied the rope, and said, "Don't worry, my father-in-law, I will help you find it, you will always find the child. If you think about it, maybe the child was taken back by the servants of the Zhuangzi..."

Murama sighed.

He also hoped that everything would be just a false alarm, as Qi Shan said, the child was not missing or taken away by a big insect, but was taken back, but he knew that the possibility was slim. Ayan was not valued, and her quality of life in Zhuangzi was only starved to death.

Half a month ago, I stayed in the village for four or five days before I was taken back - this was the result of a deliberately reminder from the villagers of Qianjia Village who met one of the old wives. The weather was so bad tonight, so don’t expect them to pick them up in the rain.

Chen Tang said: "I'll help find it too."

Qi Shan glanced at him and said, "Even if you don't want to see what weather is outside? Otherwise, you will lose you if you don't find it."

Murata was grateful to Qishan for helping, and did not agree with Chen Tang going out. This young man was still childish and was still thin at the age of eleven or two. He looked only five or six years older than Ayan.

"These worries are unnecessary, how could I lose them? No matter how bad it is, it is better than letting the villagers go to find someone in the dark." Chen Tang and Cun Zheng borrowed a straw raincoat and hat. Cun Zheng was worried and handed her a hatchet to chop wood. If he was unlucky, he could hold on.

"A Yan!"

The heavy rain made the land muddy.

Although Chen Tang had good eyesight, he would step on puddles from time to time. When he walked, the mud and water splashed, making the hem of her clothes dirty. In a quarter of an hour, she searched the fields near Qianjia Village but couldn't find A Yan's shadow. The other villagers also had no gains.

The longer the time, the less confident everyone is.

Qishan asked where the village was, and he planned to go to the village to ask. Although it is unlikely that it will be picked up, what if?

Chen Tang volunteered: "I'll go too."

Muramasa sighed, "Then I'll ask you two to go there."

The villagers of Qianjia Village searched near the deep mountains, and the same was true for the children who were taken away by the big insects. After searching for a night, they couldn't find the intestines, meat and bones that were dragged outside in the grass.

"Yan Ling is so magical, why doesn't it have the function of sheltering from the rain?"

Although she was wearing a straw raincoat, Chen Tang was still soaked with a chicken. The feeling of the cold clothes sticking to her skin made her extremely uncomfortable. If the night wind blows into the gap in the straw raincoat, it will also cause goose bumps.

Pray to the good: "Maybe there is."

Who made Yan Ling so much?

Let's talk about it-

"Even if there is, no word spirit can be learned. It would be better to wear more rain gear to expect such a word spirit in the world."

Chen Tang trotted and followed his footsteps, regardless of the heavy pace, sewage would splash. Anyway, it was already dirty, so no matter how much he paid attention to it, it would be the same: "Are there any lighting objects that are not wet by rain? It is convenient to march on heavy rain and walk at night..."

Pray for goodness: "…"

Zhuangzi is not very far from Qianjia Village.

The two of them walked along the muddy path, one foot deep and the other shallow, and walked for two quarters of an hour before they found it. It was a courtyard surrounded by low walls, and the black tiles could be vaguely seen. The courtyard was pitch black and there was no light. From a distance, it looked like a curled-up black shadow of a wild beast.

Chen Tang stepped forward and raised his hand to knock on the door.

Dongdongdongdongdong-

At this time, a lightning leaped in the clouds, illuminating half of the sky, and the deafening thunder followed.

She was worried that she wouldn't hear it inside, so she changed from knocking on the door with her fingers to knocking on the door with a fist, and gradually increased her strength - Bangbangbang!

Just when she thought there was no one in the house, she vaguely heard a man answering impatiently: "Who are you knocking on the door?"

After a while, the door opened.

The middle-aged man who opened the door was wearing a short brown robe and a scarf on his head. He seemed very dissatisfied with the fact that someone disturbed the dream in the middle of the night. He swept over Chen Tang and Qi Shan with an unkind look. Seeing that the two were tall and short, they were not old, and they looked slightly relaxed, and they were a little kinder.

"What are the two?"

Chen Tang replied: "We are travelers staying in Qianjia Village. I heard that the child named Ayan was from your village. He played in the village during the day and disappeared not long ago. The village was worried that it was taken away by a big insect and was searching everywhere."

After hearing Chen Tang's words, the middle-aged man looked much more relaxed: "Oh, A Yan has been taken back, please both of you worry."

Retrieve it???

Chen Tang frowned slightly.

With the hat, the normal color is restored.

At this time, Qi Shan crossed his hands and bowed to the man, and said with a gentle expression: "The little man in the mansion is fine, so I feel relieved. But it's dark now, the road is narrow and the wind and rain are heavy. Can you borrow your mansion for a while and allow my brothers to take shelter from the rain here?"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he hesitated for a moment.

But he turned his head and let Chen Tang and the others come in, saying, "You two are also rushing in the rain for the child to escape from the rain, so you can of course. But it's too late now, and everyone in the house has already fallen asleep and cannot entertain you. I hope you can forgive me."

Qi Shan: "This is nature, you can just take shelter from the rain with one roof."

The two followed the middle-aged man into the yard.

There were several trees planted in the yard, and there were hemp ropes tied between the trunks for clothes. There were clothes hanging on them - there were seven or eight adults, and there was also a piece of shampooed and patched children's clothes.

Chen Tang glanced at him and withdrew his gaze without a trace.
