When the little beggars heard this, they all bowed their heads. A child looked at Sweet Potato with covetous eyes, but was stared at by the oldest beggar and was so scared that he quickly stepped back.

Wang Qilin said: "Do you have a secret?"

Xu buried the sweet potato in the bonfire and roasted it. He took out half of the roast chicken rack and roasted it on the flame. Soon the chicken oil came out, and the brown-red roasted chicken skin was shiny and the fragrance kept drilling into people's nose.

Wang Qilin asked again: "Some people say that this temple is haunted at night, what's going on? Are you ghosts?"

The boy subconsciously said, "Of course we are not ghosts, we are living people!"

Wang Qilin said: "Are you pretending to be a ghost?"

The boy lowered his head silently again.

In the end, a child couldn't help it and said, "Brother, please give us a stutter. I said everything, we pretended to be ghosts. We took torches and circled around the ruined temple to pretend to be ghost fires."

Wang Qilin nodded.

Xu Da tear off the chicken and gave it to the little beggar. The seven little beggars couldn't wait to stuff the chicken into their mouths and swallow it, shouting: "It's so delicious!"

"Why do you pretend to be scary? And why don't you go to the city to beg for food when you're so hungry?"

As the conversation started, the teenagers started talking:

"We pretend to be ghosts, but we are the gods who are hiking in the ground to teach us. He said that when we pretend to be ghosts, there will be an official to save us. You are the official to be the ones who are here to be gods, right?"

"You can't go to the city. Someone arrested us. We were rescued by the gods who drilled into the ground!"

"Yes, we were caught by people, and they caught children and kidnapped them. I saw local children when I was in the dungeon..."

"We still have to wait for the official master here. The immortal crawling the ground said that the official master would come to see us. Are you official master?"

"No, I'm not waiting for Master Guan to find us, but I'm waiting for Master Guan to come and rescue the god of earth!"

Listening to the children's talkative words, Wang Qilin's heart rose.

A god drilled into the ground?

Being caught, kids are also abducted, dungeon?

Waiting for the official to come and find him?

There are obviously many secrets in the children that he needs to dig carefully.

But you have to slowly try it out, so you can't be impatient.

Xu Da took out the noodles and baked them to the children to gain favor, and then asked the oldest boy, "What's your name?"

The boy said, "My name is Dog Baozi."

Wang Qilin asked, "Is this the nickname given to you by others? Why is it called Dog Baozi?"

The boy shook his head and said, "My mother originally called me Baozi, but later my mother disappeared, so my father called me Gouzi, but there was already a guy named Gouzi in the village, so everyone in the village called me Gouzi."

"What village? Where is your hometown?"

"My family is in the Hunter Village, in a mountain, but a few days ago, heavy snow closed the mountain. The wild beasts in the mountain went deeper. Some people in the mountain chased them, but they didn't come back. Some had to leave the mountain, but they didn't come back."

Wang Qilin asked, "Do you know where your village is in?"

The boy said, "I don't know. I came out with my second aunt. Second aunt asked me to follow Uncle Dahao again. Uncle Dahao led me far away, and I was arrested in the end."

Xu Da looked at Wang Qilin and said, "Serial kidnapping, he was abducted and sold several times."

Wang Qilin nodded and asked Dog Baozi, "Good boy, don't be afraid. We are not bad people, so you tell me about your departure from the village. Oh, by the way, you said you just now that you can't eat cats, why?"

The dog Baozi said seriously: "Brother, you can't eat cats. If you have a virtuous cat, the bobcat will eat it!"

The children became energetic after eating the hot and fragrant scones, so a child laughed and said, "It's scary to make up stories."

The dog Baozi shouted: "What I said is true! I have seen it with my own eyes. If you don't believe me, please listen to me!"

He thought for a while and said, "Some days ago, it started to snow in the mountains. It was very snowing. Our village was sealed, and then everyone had no food."

"I just said that some people went deep into the mountains and didn't come back, and some people left the village. But the village always said that they were all dead. There were mountain spirits in the mountains and sucking people. It was difficult to walk outside the village, otherwise they would be frozen to death or they would be thrown to death."

"But there is nothing to eat in the village, and then one day, a little cat entered the village."

"Then I was caught by the fattest and most powerful Gua Ge in the village. Gua Ge was very happy and went back to kill the kitten. He pulled out the hair, beat the cat skin to freeze, steamed the cat meat, stewed the cat bones, and ate it himself."

Hearing this, Ba Meow hissed and gasped, widened her eyes, and suspected that the cat was born.

The dog Baozi also began to suck in the air, and he became frightened: "There was a strong wind that night, and then our village heard the lynx meows!"

"Many bobcats appeared. They entered the village and shouted. The village elder brought people out to drive the bobcat away, but the snow was very strong, so the village elder had to go back. He said that this was the bobcat who came to take revenge, and it was the bobcat who used evil magic to drive Master Tian to snow and blow strong winds."

"After dawn the next day, the villagers saw that the snow in front of Gua Ge's house was red. Do you know what this is?"

"It's all blood!"

"Then the village elder brought people into the house and saw that Gua Ge was dead! His head was still intact, but his body, arms, and legs were gone, only bones and internal organs were left. The internal organs were placed on the ground, and the room was full of cat blood claws and the mixed hair of the bobbin—"

"He was eaten by the bobcat!"

The children were timid and heard this and quickly gathered together to look at Ba Meow in horror.

Eight Meows are unhappy, what are your eyes? Meows are so dignified, can you eat people even if you don’t eat pigs?

But it immediately reacted: These naughty kids are afraid of themselves, isn’t this a good thing?

So it stood up and stared at the naughty children with a gloomy face, and told them with murderous eyes: Do you know the fate of eating cats?

Wang Qilin asked the dog Baozi, "Have you ever had a leopard in the mountains before that, in your mountains, there was a case of leopards eating people?"

The dog baby shook his head.

Wang Qilin asked again: "How long did you leave the village after this incident?"

The dog baby scratched his head hard, fleas, dandruff, and weed leaves flew together.

"I can't remember. Later, I was so hungry that I survived by eating roasted wood. Then my second aunt took me away."

Xu Da asked, "Eat roasted wood? How do you eat this?"

Gou Baozi said: "It is to roast soft wood over fire, or boil it in hot water. Anyway, let it heat up and eat it. I don't like boiled wood, it has no smell. I like roasted wood, which smells very similar to roasted steamed buns."

"What does it taste?" asked the youngest child curiously.

The dog Baozi frowned and squeezed his eyes hard, his face full of unwillingness to reminisce.

Wang Qilin asked, "You are so drowsy when you eat roasted wood, what about your village elders?"

Gou Baozi said: "The village elder is fine. He stayed in the village later, saying that he was blessed by his ancestors here, and they would survive these days when the snow was blocked from the mountains."

Wang Qilin nodded slowly and said, "Have you ever thought? The Gua Ge in your village was not killed by a bobcat, he was killed and his flesh was removed by someone."

Xu Da subconsciously shouted: "He was killed by the village elder? The meat was also removed by the village elder? The village elder had no food, and the village elder could still maintain normality by eating human flesh?"

Wang Qilin said: "It's not just him, this Gua Ge is the tallest and fattest. The old man in the village is afraid that he can't control him. Dog Baozi, it's not just the old man in your village who can still live normally, right?"

Gou Baozi is already very sensible. He understood what happened in the village as he listened to the conversation between the two, but he couldn't believe it and said, "It's impossible, we all heard the bobbin's scream!"

"In the strong wind, it's not normal for people to imitate wild cats and meow a few times?" Wang Qilin shook his head.

"There are also the blood claws of the leopards in Gua Ge's family, and the mixed hairs of the leopards..."

"The blood claw prints can be forged, and the miscellaneous hairs are easier to deal with. How many pieces of lynx skins can you hunters in the mountains? Just take the hair and sprinkle it into Gua Ge's house!"

Wang Qilin answered fluently, and Dog Baozi's defense line was quickly destroyed. He recalled what happened in the village in a daze, and squatted on the ground and opened his mouth to vomit!

But he was very sensible and knew how difficult it was to get food now.

So despite his nausea, he still suppressed his urge to vomit and suppressed the urge.

Wang Qilin looked at the other children and asked, "How did you become beggars?"

The children have a variety of answers:

"When my parents are gone, won't they become beggars?"

"I've gone down and can't find my parents."

"Brother, I'm a kidnapped. A peddler teased me with a gadget, and then suddenly stuffed me into his big bamboo basket and grabbed me."

Wang Qilin asked, "Then do you still remember the place where you were detained?"

The children shook their heads together.

The dog Baozi, who recovered, said, "We don't know that it was the gods who burrowed us and he would burrowed us. He was a god. The gods who came to save us and even gave us food."

Wang Qilin looked at Xie Hama, and Xie Hama nodded and said, "The Five Elements Escape Technique, he drilled into the ground and was earth escape. Didn't the handlebars say that someone had seen a figure drilling out from the tree at the entrance of the temple? It was wood escape."

"Can it be Huang Junzi?"

Xie Hata said: "This is possible."

Wang Qilin pondered and said, "I once told Huang Junzi that I was investigating the case of Xing Tianji. They had dealt with the Xiajiu Gate related to Xing Tianji. Then it is very likely that these children were locked up by Xiajiu Gate and rescued him."

Xu Da said: "What's the point of guessing Qi Ye? Just ask these children directly? Hello, children, is that god of earth a young man?"

Some of the children nodded and some shook their heads.

Xu Da frowned and said, "What does it mean?"

Dog Baozi said, "The god who crawled his face covers, and we can't see him."
