Chapter 85

Now that I have seen so many empty houses, I don't mind taking a few more steps to see if the innermost courtyard can be vacated to a new realm.With such an idea of ​​disharmony, Fang Xiao walked to the innermost courtyard.However, when she walked to the door of the Huahuamen leading to the inside, she was blocked, just because the door was actually locked.

This is unscientific. Since it is an empty room, there is no need to lock it so much trouble. Could it be that there are some treasures locked inside.Fang Xiao immediately raised his spirits.Locks, for her, are not difficult things. She can burn a big iron pot to slag, and a lock can be done in minutes.So, Fang Xiao started the work of pinching again.But here comes the problem.Before she draws the fire spirit power, she must first use up the earth spirit power before she can let the fire spirit power come out.Why don't you try the earth stab technique on the earth wall first.After Fang Xiao skillfully cast three earth thorns against the courtyard wall, the fire spirit power strung into the meridians all at once.So, she didn't care about resting, and when she changed hands, she performed a fireball technique. A fireball the size of a fingernail was sent into the keyhole by her, and the lock immediately dripped molten iron from the heart of the lock. Turned into an empty shell, Fang Xiao pulled lightly, and she pulled the lock from the door.Fang Xiao pushed lightly, and the door opened.

Then, she was extremely frightened.I saw that the children in the yard were all staring blankly at the warped courtyard wall, and the culprit of the warped courtyard wall was the three half-toned earth thorns she cast on the wall. .Fang Xiao looked at the faces of those children again, and her complexion was quite ugly.There is no other reason. These children are exactly the group of children she rescued from the wild wolf village. It doesn't mean that they have helped find their parents and relatives. Only a few children have not found relatives and friends, and they are being released in the mayor's house. ?Could it be that the so-called finding a relative means putting it here.

And those children didn't recognize Fang Xiao at all.Because, Fang Xiaoxue is smarter today. She not only changed her body shape, but also blurred her face, so that people who recognize her will know who she is when they see her, and those who don't recognize her will be Will look and forget.Fang Xiao beckoned to the oldest child and asked, "Are you the children who were rescued from the wild wolf village?"

"Yes." The child was honest, but when he heard the word Yelangzhai, he trembled unconsciously.

"Aren't you taken home by your parents and relatives?"

"On the second day after we entered the town, we were arranged to enter this yard. I heard from the person at the gate that the mayor is helping us find our relatives, and when we find them, he will come to pick us up."

"You have been here for more than ten days, have any children been picked up?"

"One person is taken home every three days, and now three people have left."

"Do you know the person who came to take those three children?"

"Yes, she is the mother-in-law who brings us meals every day."

"When will dinner be delivered today?"

"Every day before dark, we can have dinner."

Fang Xiao looked up at the sky, it was still a little early before the sun set.So she asked again: "In addition to delivering meals every day, will the mother-in-law come over?"

"No. On weekdays, we are locked in the yard and we are not allowed to run around."

It was very difficult for Fang Xiao to take away so many children at once, but obviously, there must be something wrong with keeping the children here. If she can find the three children who were taken away, she can be sure that the Wang family's Why do people shut up so many kids here anymore.

Fang Xiao hadn't figured out where to start to find someone to ask about the situation, but suddenly there was a noisy sound outside the yard, and several women were yelling.Fang Xiao walked out of the flower-through door and walked towards the outer courtyard. As she approached, the voice became more and more clear.

"I heard that the old fairy and the little Fengxian disappeared together, and the group of tortoises also disappeared at the same time."

"Why do you think this old fairy got involved with such a person?"

"Don't worry so much, the master told us to deal with those children in the yard first."

"So many children, how do we deal with them?"

"No, the master asked to buy a catty of arsenic, saying that it was in their diet. You guys, hurry up and get it. Remember to make it delicious, so that those little brats won't be able to eat it .”

"Oh, what a crime!"

"Don't talk about that, the master asked me to do it. Even if you commit a crime, it is the master's fault. Bless the gods and Buddhas in the sky, don't blame us if you want to, we are just servants who obey orders."

Listen to the voice, there are four women.The storm in Fang Xiao's eyes was about to solidify.She inquired about Mr. Wang today. He has an only son, who is Master Xu who molested her that day.It's really a nest of snakes and rats.Sure enough, her sleeve was slightly pulled, she turned her head, and saw several older children who followed her out, and put their ears on the wall, listening to the conversation outside.

The one who pulled her sleeve was the child whom she called to question. The child's eyes were full of tears, and he knelt down in front of Fang Xiao with a plop, and said with a trembling voice: "Brother, please help us, we know, brother He is a capable person, please help us, brother."

Seeing him kneeling in front of Fang Xiao, the other children also recovered from their shock and knelt down too.Fang Xiao quickly helped them up and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave you alone. In this way, you go back to the yard first and tell the children inside that after these women bring food in, you don't want to eat it." By the way, find a few boys with stronger strength and hide here secretly. After the women come in, lock the door first, so as not to let these women have a chance to escape. Then tell the children to come in later. Catch the woman who delivered food to the third yard, remember, everyone goes together, don’t be afraid, I will enter the yard second, first catch the lady who didn’t enter the third yard, and then go in to help you."

Those children nodded to each other. Two children found a pile of taller weeds, lay down in the weeds, and hid themselves. Not to mention, if Fang Xiao hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he really wouldn't have been able to find out where he was hiding. two children.The rest of the children hurried into the third yard.

Fang Xiao went to the second yard, turned over and jumped onto the beam to hide.

Half an hour later, I heard the sound of unlocking the courtyard door. After a while, a woman walked in the front with a heavy basket and a bunch of keys in her hand, and entered the courtyard first. go.Two women pushed a small steaming cart inside.A woman followed behind with a large bowl of bowls and chopsticks.

The four of them walked into the second yard. Two children who were hiding in the yard ran out quickly and looked out. Seeing that there was no one following outside, they quickly closed the gate and locked the door with a bolt. It was bolted back, and the lock that was locked outside was locked inside again.Then he followed in quietly, hid behind the pillar, and saw that the women had already reached the Chuanhuamen before entering the courtyard third.

The woman was about to open the door, but found that the lock was empty, and the door opened with a light push.The woman's face suddenly became ugly. She pushed open the courtyard door and was relieved to see a courtyard full of children.But before he breathed a sigh of relief, he felt someone pushing hard behind him.The woman's foot became unsteady, she staggered forward and took a few steps, her foot sprained, her center of gravity was unstable and she sat on the ground.The children in the yard rushed up, and all jumped on the woman sitting on the ground, and the woman was submerged in the pile of children all at once.The other two women who were pushing the carts behind the woman quickly put down the carts and wanted to run in to help, so they put down the carts and stood upright. There was a sharp pain in the back of the neck. Fang Xiao had already jumped off the beam, and with a few knives in his hand, he chopped down the woman who was following her and passed out.

After closing the door, the two older children also ran back to the third courtyard and pulled out the woman who was at the bottom. Angrily, she cursed the three women who followed her as useless, and cursed the group of children who dared to oppress her. She was pulled out and sat on the ground. Brushing away the hair that was in front of her eyes, she said viciously, "Give each of these little bastards a bowl of hot soup, and I want to see how capable they are."

"Okay, come here with a bowl of soup. Mommy is thirsty and wants to drink soup. How can you be so deaf." Fang Xiao stood in front of the mother-in-law, her crisp voice stunned the mother-in-law, She hurriedly brushed aside the hair in front of her eyes, and saw a girl dressed as a boy she didn't know, holding a bowl of soup and handing it to her with a big smile.

Seeing that the steaming bowl of soup was the soup she had just cooked with added ingredients, the mother-in-law turned pale with fright, kicked her legs repeatedly, and shrank back.

"Why, don't you have the courage to drink the soup you chopped? Or, do you think pouring it is more in line with your style?" Although Fang Xiao smiled, the meaning of the words made the mother-in-law start all over again. When her feet were cold, she realized that she threw herself in front of Fang Xiao, hugged Fang Xiao's leg, and began to cry loudly: "It's all a woman, I'm greedy, and I want to take a few meals from the housekeeper, I don’t want to waste money on these children. I have a sick son in my family. He needs this money for medical treatment. So, mother-in-law, I just thought about it, please forgive me this time. , I will never dare again next time.”

Fang Xiao didn't speak, but the older child kicked the woman on the shoulder, kicked the woman to the ground, and said angrily, "If the benefactor hadn't opened the door, we could have heard your conversation , so many of us are about to die in the hands of your greedy mother-in-law, and you still want us to let you go, and you don't think the money in your hands is hot."

This child seems to have been studying for a few days, and he still understands some truths.Fang Xiao pulled the angry child away, fearing that he would kick him out in a fit of anger, where would she go to arrest someone to ask questions.Although it is said that there are three other women, but seeing that the three women are the action group mainly composed of her, the three of them must not know as much as she does, so Fang Xiao pulled away the avatar Angry Birds kids.

"Since your master has raised these children for so long, why did you suddenly ask you to kill them all?" This is what Fang Xiao couldn't figure out the most. Of course, the question should start from here.
