Chapter 121
"Why hasn't your sister come back yet?"

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, but Tang Gumeng was still not seen, Fang Qiuhua, who had just returned from the field, frowned and said.

Tang Gulin helped light the fire, and replied: "My sister will not come back tonight."

When Fang Qiuhua went out in the morning, Tang Gumeng was still at home, and when he came back at noon, he didn't see anyone, and Xi Rong was not there, Fang Qiuhua thought she was going to see Xi Rong off, so he didn't take it to heart.

Tang Gulin's words made Fang Qiuhua think a little bit wrongly, and asked Tang Gulin sharply: "Did your sister tell you?"

Tang Gulin covered his mouth.

Fang Qiuhua immediately asked, "How did Sister Ni tell you?"

"No", Tang Gulin immediately replied.

Fang Qiuhua did not believe his words: "Didn't say it? How do you know your sister is not coming back?"

Tang Gulin threw down the firewood, ran back to the room, took out a note, and handed it to Fang Qiuhua: "My sister didn't say anything, but just wanted me to give you this tomorrow morning. I was a little curious, so I opened it in advance and read it." .”

After opening it, Fang Qiuhua's face immediately changed: "You two stay at home, don't go out, I'll call your aunt to take care of you."

Tang Jiagen was on middle shift today, and he was still working in the mine at the moment, so Fang Qiuhua ran directly to Tang Jiashu's house.

The door of Tangjiashu's house was already locked, Fang Qiuhua knocked on the door vigorously and shouted: "Brother, sister-in-law, I am Qiuhua, I have something to ask you."

Tang Jiagen's family was also eating. They were stunned for a moment when they heard the sound, put down their bowls and chopsticks, and went out of the yard to open the door.

"What's the matter? In such a hurry?"

Fang Qiuhua said with tears in his voice: "Gu Meng went to the mountain, but he hasn't come back yet, and Jiagen is not at home. I really don't know what to do."

Tang Jiashu frowned: "She went in alone?"

"I don't know, she left a note, and I just saw it tonight," Fang Qiuhua said incoherently.

Tang Jiashu also couldn't care less about eating: "I need to find the patriarch for this matter, and I have to impress the whole village into the mountain. Caiqin, ask a few boys to pack up, bring your stuff, and prepare to go into the mountain. I'll go with Qiuhua now Patriarch's house."

There were no street lights in the village, and under the moonlight, the two of them walked for a quarter of an hour, one foot deep and one foot shallow, before arriving at the patriarch's house.

The patriarch's house is the oldest house in the village. There is no wall outside, only a fence surrounded by sparse wooden boards.

The old man was getting old, and he had already fallen asleep at this time, Tang Jiashu shouted loudly outside the door: "Is the patriarch at home? I am Tang Jiashu, I have something to do with you."

After a while, the door was opened, and the old man stood in a coat and asked, "What's the matter?"

"My niece and daughter have entered the mountains and want to go to the mountains to find someone, and I have to ask the old patriarch for approval," Tang Jiashu said sincerely.

The old man asked sharply: "A girl, what are you doing in the mountains?"

Tang Jiashu didn't know why, so he moved the corners of his mouth, but didn't speak.

"During the village meeting, I said that no one is allowed to enter the mountain. Since she is disobedient, why do you still ask me for it? Let her fend for herself."

After speaking, we will close the door and go back to the house.

Fang Qiuhua knelt down directly: "Old patriarch, I belong to Tang Jiagen's family, I beg you, let someone go to the mountains to look for it, after all, it is a person, it just disappeared, how can we live!"

The old patriarch shouted: "There are tigers and wolves in the mountains. If you feel sorry for your daughter, don't let her enter the mountain. Now it's late at night, wouldn't it hurt others to let others in? Who do you think is appropriate?"

Tang Jiashu gritted his back molars and said, "Patriarch, we don't need anyone to go into the mountain to help us find someone. Our family has enough men. You just need to approve us to go into the mountain."

The old patriarch saw that what they said was certain, and knew that he could not dissuade him, and that the girl was also a child in the village, so it was inappropriate not to save her, so he waved his hand: "It's up to you, but if something happens in the mountains, don't come Find me."

"Thank you, old patriarch."

The door of the courtyard closed, and Fang Qiuhua left with Tang Jiashu.

When they got home, the Tang family's third house and six men were already in the yard.

Regarding the matter of finding someone, no one raised any objections, Tang Jiashu waved his hand: "Let's go."

"The mountain is dark, and there are wolves, bring a few more torches into the mountain."

There was a lot of commotion in the Tang family. Several good neighbors also sent men out, and finally a search and rescue team of more than a dozen people entered the mountain mightily.

There is more than one way up the mountain, and the light at night is weak, and there is no way to find the traces of Tang Gumeng's walking, so they can only act separately.

After counting the number of people, Tang Jiashu said: "Right now we have eighteen people, let's divide them into three groups, and leave two people waiting in place to be in charge of jointing, and go along these three roads. I have a bit of cloth here, and everyone will take it along the road. Make a mark."

"It is estimated that after walking three miles, you have to send someone back to report the news. You must not walk around with your head covered."

"When the beasts came out at night, they all carried snacks. When they found something was wrong, they hurried back."

"Okay!"

After the voice fell, a group of people dispersed.

Night is the time for wolves to come and go. The sound of wolves howling in the mountains and forests is constant, and the people who searched the mountains walked tremblingly.

……

Tang Gumeng, who was far away in the mountains, had no idea that Tang Gulin had taken out the letter he left home in advance, which disturbed the villagers.

At this moment, the two of them were staying in the underground cave. Because of the day's walking, both of them were tired, so they used their clothes as a pad and fell asleep.

After a night of no dreams, when they opened their eyes again, the entrance of the cave was already illuminated by light, and the two got up tacitly.

"Let's go back today first." Over the course of the night, Tang Gumeng's ankle became more swollen, and now he couldn't touch the ground.

"Okay, will you delay here?" Xi Rong went up the mountain this time to check this ancient tomb, and Tang Gumeng felt a little sorry because he went back early.

Xi Rong smiled indifferently: "The wisdom of the ancients is beyond our imagination, especially in funerals. Because of taboos, they put more thought into it. For your own safety, you can't just wander around."

"It's definitely not a coincidence that the ancestral hall in your village was built next to this ancient tomb, so the best way is to ask your patriarch to clarify the situation. Even if you didn't get injured, I still have to go down the mountain today."

"Besides, if you suddenly leave for one night, your family members should also be worried. Going back is the best choice."

Tang Gumeng nodded: "Okay, then I will have to work hard for you today."

When they came, Xi Rong made signs along the road, and it was relatively smooth to go back. The two of them chatted and walked to the periphery without knowing it.

"Big brother?"

Tang Gumeng was a little surprised when he saw the person in front of him.
