Chapter 1640

The news can be big or small for Qiao Yuling. People in Nanshan like to use swords. People in Heyi island like to use poison. Batu country likes to use knives. So Batu country, Baiqi country and Heyi island should be allied.

However, this is also expected. The people of batuguo should have done those things.

"I know, sister-in-law, you can keep it. Don't worry about things outside. Don't go out if you have nothing to do."

"Well, I know. You can do it quickly."

After Qiao Yuling returned to Prince Chen's house, she set out to investigate the situation in the villages near the capital. There are still many missing people. She suspects that she has something to do with the Xiao family.

Nangong Chenwei didn't enter the palace today, but also went out with Qiao Yuling. The group went directly to the village with the largest number of people disappearing. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, the people in the village came out with their farm tools and looked at them with an alert look.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" The leading youth roars to Qiao Yuling and Nangong Chenwei.

Nangong Chenwei gives Yingfeng a look. Yingfeng takes out his money card and gives them a look. Then he says in a deep voice, "we are here to investigate the missing people. I want to come to you to understand the situation."

On hearing this, people in the village didn't put down their guard. Instead, they resented, "what are you doing here? At the beginning, several people in our village disappeared one after another, so they went to the government to report a case, but if you are not an official, I'll come to investigate at this time. Who knows what your heart is."

Qiao Yuling took a few steps forward, and the man immediately yelled: "don't come here, come here again, I'm not polite."

Nangong Chenwei's whole body pressure immediately low, he is about to come forward, Qiao Yuling looked back at him, give him a look, this just looked back at the man in front of him, "don't worry, we really just want to know about the situation, we also want to help you find someone to go home as soon as possible."

The young man who took the lead was still hesitating whether to believe Qiao Yuling. A woman in her fifties rushed in directly from the crowd, wailing and crying. She knelt down in front of Qiao Yuling and kept crying, "please help my daughter, help my daughter."

"Auntie Xiu, get up first. Who knows who they are? It's not reliable." The youth who took the lead came forward to pull up the woman on the ground. The woman couldn't sit up on the ground and cried more loudly, "no, I won't get up. It's not easy to see hope. I will ask them to save my daughter."

Young still want to persuade, Qiao Yuling came forward to take up the woman's other arm, quietly advised: "aunt, you get up first, what words we have to say."

When the woman saw Qiao Yuling talking, she began to twitch. Then she looked at Qiao Yuling wiping her tears, and her voice choked. "My daughter is very clever. She usually doesn't go anywhere. Sometimes she just goes to the mountains to find some herbs. I have leg pain. My family is poor and we can't get medicine. So my daughter goes to the mountains to find herbs and smashes them for me, It's been years and nothing, but this time she went out and never came back

Qiao Yuling frowned and asked, "after your daughter disappeared, did you not go to the place where she used to collect herbs?"

"I did. How could I not find it? That night, my daughter didn't come back, so I went to the villagers and asked them to help me find it. We went to the mountain together, but there was no one there all day and night." The woman began to cry again.

Qiao Yuling looked up and saw that there was a mountain behind the village, but there were several villages around the mountain. It didn't look like there were wild animals in the mountain.

"Do you know how the rest of the village disappeared?" She asked.

The woman cried and looked back at the crowd. She called the roll directly, "Er Niu, Osmanthus fragrans, Li Laosi, some of your families have been lost. I still don't want to talk about it. Now you don't want to let your family come back?"

Listening to the woman's words, several people who were named all stood up. Some of them were old, some didn't look big, but the youngest were all in their thirties.

When they came out, they all said how their family had disappeared. There were other families in the village. When they saw that they had all said it, they also came out one after another and told them how their family had disappeared.

There are about three hundred households in this village. Eight of them are missing, five women and three men.

"When was the last missing person in your village?" Qiao Yuling asked.

"Four days ago, we all know that young people can't come back when they go out, so young people are not allowed to go out. Now what the village needs are all old people. Let's go out together and buy things at one time. Usually we don't go out, so no one is missing these days, otherwise... One by one is missing a few days ago." The first woman to kneel down to Qiao Yuling said clearly.

Understanding the situation, Qiao Yuling glanced at the villagers, then took Nangong Chenwei and Xiaoying with them and went up the mountain to the place where the first daughter went to collect herbs.

As they walked, they saw if there was anything suspicious, but after two hours, they found nothing. At lunch time, Yingfeng went to play game, so they found a place in the mountain to roast. After dinner, they cleaned up the mess and left. Then they heard something.

All of them held their breath for the first time. Qiao Yuling listened carefully to the direction of the movement and crept over. Nangong Chenwei hurriedly followed, and whispered in her ear, "be careful." Qiao Yuling nodded gently, and they came forward together. The movement was getting closer and closer, as if something was approaching them. Everyone's hearts were raised. Nangong Chenwei makes a gesture behind him. The people who follow him immediately look for the tree and jump up the tree to observe the situation below. Nangong Chenwei to take Qiao Yuling up, Qiao Yuling gently shook his head, "you go, I'll stay below."“ That one. " Nangong Chenwei doesn't want to be separated from Qiao Yuling for fear of danger. Qiao Yuling shook his head again, "no, you go up. I'll go to the tree to hide. I can see it inside. You go in with me. You can't see the situation outside." She said space, Nangong Chenwei understood. Nangong Chenwei also wanted to talk, Qiao Yuling directly pushed him away, "go." Be despised so by oneself woman, the heart of South Temple Chen Wei is painful, but have no way, can only exhort her, "that you are careful." Then I went to a tree and waited on it.
