Next to me, after Lili Taozi and the others walked away, Han Xue breathed a sigh of relief to me and landed on the ground again: "Hey, Chen Yang, that Aunt Qing looks so elegant and well-dressed, but she's wearing clean clothes.

You really don’t pay much attention to your personal hygiene.”

"Well?" I retracted my eyes and looked back at Han Xue: "Why do you say that?"

"Didn't you see it just now? I squatted next to her and I could see clearly that there was dust between the fingernails." He sighed before continuing: "It looks like her hands have been doing too much farm work, which really doesn't match her temperament.

"

He frowned and looked in the direction where the three of them could no longer be seen, and said to Han Xue worriedly: "Should... there be no problem, right?"

"Huh?" Han Xue raised her head and looked at me: "What's the problem again? Are you talking about Aunt Qing?"

"Well...I always feel a little worried."

Han Xue waved her hand: "What are you worried about? Chen Yang, when did you start to have this problem of being a soldier? What can happen if the two of you send an old lady home? If you have this time, why don't you think about why this stinky Xiaoshu doesn't do it?

return?"

"It's far away. Even if she runs back and forth, it will take more than ten or twenty minutes. How long will it take to get there? Please be patient and wait."

As a result, as soon as we turned around and said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. From far away, Zhou Wen and Xu Shu held an umbrella and ran towards us with two more in their arms.

When they walked in, Han Xue stood up from the ground, patted her clothes and asked, "Zhou Wen, why are you here too?"

Zhou Wen glanced at the pavilion where we were alone, then looked back around and asked, "Where is the peach man?"

Xu Shu was also surprised: "Weren't you still there just now? Where did Kung Fu and Lili go at this moment?"

Xu Shu also brought a coat for me and Han Xue. After wrapping it up, she responded: "Aunt Qing insists on going back, and her legs and feet are not strong, so they will send Aunt Qing home first."

Zhou Wen frowned: "Aunt Qing? Who is Aunt Qing?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Shu hurriedly explained: "Didn't I just tell you that we met an old lady here and chatted for a while. Let's call her Aunt Qing."

"Well..." Zhou Wen nodded and looked around: "How long will it take to come back?"

It seemed that he was a little worried. This man was very vigilant. As long as he was at home, Taozi would have to be by her side unless she went out with a group of us.

After thinking for a while, Han Xue responded: "It won't be a big meeting, and we will be back in a few minutes. Is it possible that knowing that we are waiting here, you go into someone's house and have a cup of hot tea before leaving?"

...

Ten minutes passed. Xu Shu looked back at Han Xue: "Do you think...did you really go into someone else's house and drink hot tea?"

"This..." Han Xue felt a little embarrassed and waved her hand: "We live far away, and Aunt Qing can't walk quickly because her legs and feet are not good. She might have been delayed on the way. Let's wait a little longer."

...

Another ten minutes passed, and the rain outside became heavier again. The crackling force was no less fierce than before. Zhou Wen's brows were already knitted together. After spinning around twice, he held up an umbrella and turned around to ask.

He said: "Where does that person live? I'll go look for him."

Time indeed passed for a long time. Seeing Zhou Wen holding an umbrella, I got under Xu Shu's umbrella and Han Xue opened one by herself: "Let's go look for it together, so as not to have to come back to meet again, we can go back in a while

Already."

Zhou Wen didn't say anything, and rushed directly into the rain. Han Xue followed closely. It was not convenient for Xu Shu and I to hold an umbrella and walk on the path on the pond. They both passed by for a while before we finally got serious.

Step on the ground.

Han Xue remembered the location mentioned by Aunt Qing just now, and was pulled by Zhou Wen to show the way. Looking at the two people walking far ahead, Xu Shu and I quickly picked up the pace and caught up.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and our pants and shoes were already soaked through before we walked far. Xu Shu asked me if I was cold. After shaking her head, she tried to speed up her pace to keep up with her.

I didn't pay attention to the location that Aunt Qing just said, and Xu Shu didn't care either. Only Han Xue knew about it, so when she brought us to a dark villa, all three of us, including Zhou Wen, had our faces

It instantly became dark.

The distance to the front, back, left, and right of this house was pitch black, and it was obvious that no one had ever lived here before.

This large area should be empty, as was the case with Ma Wenwen's house. Except for their house, which was the first to move in at the corner, the first few rows at the back were all empty, with no one living there at all.

Han Xue was also very strange after seeing it, and repeatedly assured us that she was definitely not leading the wrong way. Aunt Qing was talking about this place.

A chill instantly filled his body, and he shivered uncontrollably.

I turned around and looked at the dark houses around me. They were like giant monsters sitting on the ground in the darkness, ready to swallow us all at any time.

There was silence for two minutes, and there was only the sound of raindrops hitting the ground. After a while, Zhou Wen turned back to look at us, his brows already knitted together: "That woman... have you seen her before?"

The three of us were stunned for a moment, then shook our heads: "No... I haven't seen it before."

Han Xue pouted and replied in a low voice: "There are people coming and going in this villa area. Today this family will move in, and that family will move out tomorrow. Who knows who lives in which family? Have you seen them all everywhere?"

"..." After listening to Han Xue's words, Zhou Wen couldn't say anything else. He just frowned and tightened: "I always feel that there is an ominous premonition."

Clearing her throat, Xu Shu responded: "Otherwise, we should go back to the pavilion where we were just now and take a look. Maybe we are looking in the wrong place. They are already waiting for us there."

Zhou Wen didn't say anything. He looked around again, turned around and walked back the way he came. Han Xue followed behind us, mumbling: "I remember correctly, it's right here. Good intentions.

There will be no good reward. If I had known it, I would not have led the way."

Just like that, none of us turned around and left without noticing that somewhere in the darkness, a pair of gloomy eyes were watching us quietly through the cover of the night.

On the way back, the rain subsided a little. We walked faster and walked back to the small park where we were. It was still empty and there was no sign of a ghost.

Now we all knew that something was wrong. At least forty minutes had passed, but there was still no trace of the two of them. Even we walked so far in and then turned back. Logically speaking, they should have been there long ago.

It's time to come back.

When Zhou Wen saw the empty park, he didn't stop and accelerated his pace and continued walking forward.

Xu Shu whispered to me: "Let's follow Zhou Wen home and have a look. Maybe they have gone back."

"Well..." I nodded, turned and looked at Han Xue under the umbrella beside me, whose face was obviously pale. She must have noticed something was wrong, and she was a little scared.

With the last glimmer of hope, we quickly returned home. Uncle Gazi and others stood at the door and stretched their necks to wait for us to come back. When they saw us from a distance, they started to wave.

Zhou Wen ran over and asked aloud before he had time to close his umbrella: "Are Taozi and Lili back?"

Uncle Gazi was stunned, took the umbrella from Zhou Wen's hand and put it in the corner of the room in front of the door. He asked, "I haven't seen you. Aren't you two just going to deliver umbrellas? Aren't you supposed to come back together?"

The three of us also entered the room. Shen Feng and Yangyang brought us cups of hot water. After taking a few sips, we felt that our bodies were much warmer, and they wiped the water off our bodies with towels.

Uncle Gazi, who was on the sidelines, probably knew what happened when a few of us looked strange, so he asked worriedly: "What's wrong? Why didn't those two children come back?"

Han Xue and Xu Shu didn't say anything. Zhou Wen stood at the door and looked outside, his face full of thought.

I sighed and replied: "...They are both gone."

"What?" Uncle Gazi's voice suddenly rose: "What do you mean missing? How did you disappear? Did you two quarrel again? Did you make them unhappy and lose your temper and didn't want to come back?"

I waved my hands hurriedly: "No, we didn't quarrel. The two of them sent an old lady home. It's been an hour. We also looked around and found no one."

Shen Fengyang, Yangyang Jundi also frowned and stood over: "Did you happen to miss the way? Where are they waiting for you?"

"Probably not. When we turned back, we looked again at the small park where we were separated. There was no one there at all."

After hearing this, Uncle Gazi's face changed, he patted his thigh and said: "It's broken, it's broken, something must have happened... Something must have happened!" After he finished speaking, he looked at us a few times, hating the iron. Bu Chenggang said: "You think you don't know how to make dim sum?"

Han Xue curled her lips and said: "We didn't expect that an old lady could be dangerous. If there is anything, Taozi and Lili can't deal with an old lady?"

Uncle Gazi sighed: "People in this world are very frightened. How many weird people with evil thoughts have we met along the way? What kind of people are there? I'm afraid that the old lady is not really a person with evil thoughts. There are two more. As for helpers, how can Taozi and Lili with their thin arms and legs resist?"

As soon as Uncle Gazi finished speaking, the familiar sound of a car engine came from in front of the door. It must have been turned off in front of the house. He unconsciously relaxed in his heart. Great, Suotian is back.

Suo Tian walked in from the outside not long after, and saw Zhou Wen standing in front of the door. After entering, he saw Han Xue and Xu Shu who were all wet, and asked: "What happened?"

I think Suotian should be used to it, and he comes home to clean up our mess.

Uncle Gazi looked back at Suotian, sighed and said, "Taozi and Miss Li's children are gone."
