My whole family has crossed with Goldfinger

Chapter 282 Chapter 280 Second: Still Not Found

Recently, Fucheng has not been peaceful. First, more than a dozen young girls were lost in one night during the Ghost Festival. Later, a skinned female body was found in the Guanxi River. It was confirmed that it was the girl who had disappeared before.

All the people in the city, those who have daughters at home, can't wait to stay by their side day and night, so that no one can take a step out of sight.

In the streets and alleys, among the passers-by, there are no young girls to be seen.

Zhang Xiulan was also terribly worried, and told Xu Yinyin not to go out, not only did she not go out, but the asarum and Linglong at home didn't go out, so the housekeeper took them to buy anything.

The last time her daughter was captured, she was almost skinned and made into a lantern. Zhang Xiulan still has lingering fears thinking about it now.

I have been busy in the shop all morning, and I don't even have time to take care of the sun, and I have to come back specifically to see if my daughter is staying at home honestly.

Xu Yinyin was also afraid that she would be tired, so she quickly raised her hand to promise, "Mother, don't worry, I won't go out until Hu Xuan is arrested. Yesterday I had something to do with the government office, and I promise not to go out in the future. Don't run back and forth several times a day, it's noon, the sun is shining again, be careful of heatstroke."

"I don't feel worried if I don't see it with my own eyes. Don't go out. It's fine. I won't come back to watch it later." Zhang Xiulan was also afraid, and she got her daughter's guarantee. She knew that her daughter was not a messy person. This made me feel more at ease.

"Then I'll go back to the shop first, and I'll bring you chicken feet at night."

Xu Yinyin sent Zhang Xiulan out with a smile, turned around and went back to the house, ready to take a nap.

If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, she has been captured once, how could she be so careless?
It was an accident yesterday, but she also brought Xiao Hei with her.

In short, if Hu Xuan is not caught this time, she will definitely not go out for a stroll.

She can also stay at home. On such a hot day, just stay indoors, read a book, eat snacks, and eat watermelon. It's also delicious, okay?

I don't know how long it will take to get good news after the city gate has been arranged.

That's right, Governor Ye implemented Xu Yinyin's suggestion and made a move to play hard to get.

The gate of the city is under martial law, Hu Xuan is not a fool, and he would definitely not choose to take so many girls out of the city.

And to prevent those girls from being skinned and made into lanterns, Hu Xuan had to take them out of the city.

According to the previous confession of the Red Lotus cultist, Hu Xuan would send the young girl back to the high priest if he captured the young girl. Making human skin lanterns is probably his other hobby.

As long as there is a chance, this person will still be taken back if he wants to come, otherwise, why did the teacher spend so much time saving you Hu Xuan?Isn't that why you were asked to do this errand?
Therefore, the prefect of Ye has already withdrawn the manpower at the city gate, but it cannot make Hu Xuan suspicious, so he deployed all the manpower in the city, including Jiangyang County, and searched inch by inch from morning to night every day.

This forced Hu Xuan to choose to leave the city as soon as possible.

As long as he is out of the city, he is sure to catch him!
The streets were searched by officers and soldiers. At other times, it is estimated that the people would be dissatisfied behind the scenes, but they would be dissatisfied behind the scenes. After all, it is such a nuisance to the people, over and over again, that no one can stand it.

But right now, the common people are wishing that there would be more noise, so that they can catch everyone in that cult as soon as possible, so that they won't be worried about something happening to the girl at home.

Under the scorching sun, the old trees at the entrance of the alley were all wilted by the sun, and the peddler selling herbal tea under the tree held a cattail leaf fan, looking at the empty business, he was also drowsy.

At this point, there are not many people walking on the street.

This area was searched by waves of officers and soldiers in the morning, but it is very quiet at the moment.

The peddler yawned heavily and was about to take a nap, but there were no customers anyway.

As soon as he lowered his eyelids, he heard footsteps.

Opening his eyes, sure enough, he quickly smiled and got up to say hello, "Guest officer, sit down quickly! Would you like a bowl of herbal tea?"

"Have a bowl! Oh my god, it's too hot!" The man sat down and said.

The peddler served someone a bowl of herbal tea in a hurry, "Yeah, it's been too hot these days! I don't know when it will rain, and the vegetables in the vegetable garden are going to wilt."

The man took a big sip of herbal tea and said, "That's right, it's unbearably hot. I haven't done much work yet, and my whole body is sweating!"

The peddler is also a chatterbox, dozing off, wishing that someone would hang out with him.

"Brother, where are you going? At this point, there's nothing to do, and you won't go out."

The man put down the bowl, and answered the words naturally: "I'm looking for someone!"

As he said that, he couldn't help looking at the peddler, and said, "I think my brother also often does business here, right? Let me ask you about someone, Xu Zhenguo, do you know my brother?"

"Xu Zhenguo?" The peddler shook his head, "I don't know him, I've never heard of it. The name is strange."

"Brother, why are you so young, your relative? Do you still owe you money?"

Seeing that he didn't know him, the man shook his head and smiled, and took a few words away.

After finishing a bowl of herbal tea, he touched the coin to pay the bill, then got up and left.

Picking a shady path to go forward, passing through a street, I met an old man pulling slops.

He approached him again, and said, "Hey uncle! I'm asking you for someone, Xu Zhenguo, do you know him?"

The old man shook his head, "I don't know, I haven't heard of it!"

The man thanked him, and continued to walk forward, so he walked for a while and asked for a while.

He also picks people, he doesn't just ask people when he sees them.

Those who are selected are the kind of people who seem to be walking around in that area often, such people are familiar with that area, and they almost know that area.

Until dusk and dusk, this day was another day of no harvest.

That person carefully avoided the crowds of people who were busy going home after work in the evening. He was an inconspicuous person at first, but within a few strokes, he entered an alley and disappeared.

A remote house in Jiangyang County, because of a big fire that burned a dozen members of the family to death, and such and such things happened all the time, it was called a ghost house, and gradually it was abandoned.

The person who had disappeared earlier came in through the back door, and wandered into a certain room in the house.

"Sect Master, I still haven't heard anything about Xu Zhenguo today."

Sitting on the wide chair, Hu Xuan's face darkened. It was really strange. He sent several people to the four cities in the southeast and northwest including Jiangyang County. After searching for several days, they couldn't find this person.

There are still too few people sent out to inquire.

But now that the wind is tight, there is no way.

He rubbed the center of his brows, and said, "Are you sure the city gate is really relaxed, so you don't need to check in and out?"

The other person who came back earlier replied: "The subordinates of several city gates have looked at it carefully, and it is true. I heard that Master Xuezheng will come to Yiyang Mansion in the past few days, so the martial law at the city gate was lifted, and the city gate will be closed. Everyone went all out to search the city."

The registration announcement for the college examination in August has been posted, and the college exam will be coming soon, and the academic and political masters will usually come in advance to inspect the academic style of the prefecture and so on.

This is not surprising.

Hu Xuan tapped on the table, thought for a long time, and then said: "Get ready, wait for my order, we will leave the city at any time!"

After finishing speaking, he ordered the person behind him to say: "I'll give you another day, and tomorrow I'll go and inquire about it for another day. If I can find Xu Zhenguo, this suzerain will give you a credit and mention you as the incense master!"

The man shook his head and clapped his hands in response, "This subordinate will definitely go all out!"
