Chapter 54 The Missing Person
"I forgot when I was shopping just now. There are too many things to buy. If I come earlier, maybe I can finish them today." Tan Wenning sighed and said softly to Han Yunqi.

"It's okay, I just take it back tomorrow and fix the tombstone together." Han Yunqi said softly.

"Is there anything else I want to buy?" Han Yunqi looked at Tan Wenning and asked.

"By the way, there is still a pot!" Tan Wenning suddenly remembered that she had said before that she wanted to buy a pot, and almost forgot again.

"Let's go, it's getting late, go back early so they don't worry." Han Yunqi said softly, looking at the sky.

"Yeah." The two of them went to the blacksmith shop to buy a cauldron, and Tan Wenning still put it in the space. After all, she couldn't carry a cauldron around.

After the two of them finished shopping, after thinking about it again, they decided that there was nothing more to buy, so they planned to go to Wang Dachui and take his ox cart back.

When Tan Wenning passed by "Ten Miles of Fragrance", she took a look inside, and there was a crowd of people inside, it was hardly the same as the one she saw last time.

"What's the matter, do you want to go in and have a look?" Han Yunqi saw Tan Wenning glanced at the restaurant, thinking that she was hungry, after all, she hadn't eaten in the restaurant in this small town, so it was normal to be curious.

"No, I just took a look. The last time I passed by this store, their business was not so good." Tan Wenning smiled and left quickly.

Seeing this, Han Yunqi hurriedly followed. When the two reached the gate of the city, there were already many people on Wang Dahammer's ox cart.

"Ning girl, come quickly, I'll wait for you two." Wang Dahammer greeted Tan Wenning immediately after seeing Tan Wenning with sharp eyes.

At this time, Qian Yanyan could not be seen in the carriage, and Tan Wenning guessed that Qian Yanyan might have gone back by herself. After all, other than them, the people who went back at this point were those who came to work in the town.

"Really, women just mess around. If we hadn't waited for them, we would have left long ago." Wu Minghan said with a sullen expression on his face.

Tan Wenning glanced at him lightly, but ignored him. There were already a lot of people in the car. Looking at the crowded ox cart, Tan Wenning frowned slightly. It was inevitable that her body would touch her body.

While she was meditating, Han Yunqi walked over, he squeezed inside, and a large space was vacated, he stretched out his hand and pulled Tan Wenning to the empty seat and said softly, "You sit here."

Tan Wenning sat on it, because Han Yunqi isolated the crowd for her, so she didn't meet anyone except Han Yunqi.

When the others saw this, although they were a little dissatisfied, they didn't speak. After all, Han Yunqi was a scholar, and they were still afraid.

Tan Wenning frowned. On the bullock cart was the scent of ink from Han Yunqi's body, as well as the smell of sweat from other people. Tan Wenning moved closer to Han Yunqi, because she smelled the most It was the scent of ink on Han Yunqi's body.

Along the way, other people were talking about what kind of customers they met today, or how many rewards they got.

Suddenly there was a topic, and Tan Wenning listened to it:
"I heard that this area is not peaceful recently." Liu Ershen said in a mysterious voice.

"What's the matter, tell me quickly, everyone wants to hear it!" Ji Ping lightly patted Liu Er next to him.

"I heard that there are many missing people in this area recently, and most of them are children." After Liu Er finished speaking, the bullock cart suddenly fell silent.

"Really? Then I have to go back and give my family a good advice. Watch the child more recently and don't let him run around." Liu Daquan said quickly. There are five children in his family, four daughters and one son. Two of the older daughters are married, and now there are two daughters and a younger son in the family.

His son is his lifeblood, so nothing will happen to him.

"Me too, I have to go back and talk to my family."

For a moment, some people in the carriage panicked. After all, the village lacked everything, except children. Basically, every household had children who were underage.

Tan Wenning also began to worry about her younger brothers and sisters. If she had known earlier, she would not have allowed Han Yunqi to come with her. These things must have been done by human traffickers. It is true that public security was not good in ancient times. Tan Wenning did not expect One day I would actually come into such close contact.

At this moment, Tan Wenning felt that the speed of the ox cart was too slow, and she wanted to run off of the ox cart by herself.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen." When Tan Wenning was restless, she heard Han Yunqi's cold voice. In an instant, her heart felt as if a gust of wind had blown her, and her restlessness disappeared with it. , her mood gradually settled down.

After about a quarter of an hour, the ox cart successfully arrived at the gate of the village, and everyone went home one after another without saying a word. Fortunately, the money for the cart was already paid before getting on the cart.

Tan Wenning also hurried home, and Han Yunqi followed closely behind her.

Tan Wenning walked to the door, and when she saw that the door was still tightly closed, she breathed a sigh of relief, only then did she realize that she had already left a little out of breath.

She knocked lightly on the door and said softly: "Yue'er, open the door, sister is back!"

Han Yunqi had also reached the door at this time, and soon there was a sound from inside the door, and the door opened from the inside after a while.

"Sister, you are back, why have you been away for so long?" Tan Wenyue was obviously relieved when she saw Tan Wenning outside the door.

"I bought a lot of things, so I delayed for a while, Yue'er, have you had lunch?" Tan Wenning looked at Tan Wenyue and patted her head and asked.

"I've already eaten, sister, come in quickly." Tan Wenyue stepped aside and waited for Tan Wenning and the others to come in before she closed the door.

"Sister, someone knocked on the door at noon today. I didn't speak, nor opened the door, and the people outside the door didn't speak either. The people outside the door lingered for a while before leaving." Tan Wenyue recalled what happened at noon, and now And a little scared.

"It's right not to open the door. If you are from the village, you will definitely be able to talk. Besides, you have no relatives, and I don't have any relatives who will come to the door. Yue'er, you are right to do so." Han Yunqi looked at it admiringly Look at Tan Wenyue.

"Well, well done. Today I heard people say that there may be traffickers in this area, so it's better to be careful. Brother Yunqi and I usually try to stay alone at home. If we are not here, you Don't open the door to strangers, you know?" Tan Wenning told Tan Wenyue seriously.

"Hmm." Tan Wenyue nodded several times. She was very glad that she didn't open the door. Now that she thought about it, she felt that the situation was very wrong. She heard a few people whispering behind the door. look in.
