another dog

This Zhang Benwu was actually wearing makeup.

His face was both powdered and red.

It's just that the technique is ingenious, and the makeup is very natural, so it is difficult to be found. Most people see him and will not think that he has makeup, just as normal skin color.

That is to say, Qin Shaoyou has the talent of [improving eyesight], and can find clues from the subtle points, only then can he see that Zhang Benwu has makeup on his face.

No, not just the face.

Qin Shaoyou looked down and landed on Zhang Benwu's hand.

His hands were also painted red.

Although some romantic people like to put on powder and grease, and even like to wear women's clothes, and boast that they are elegant.

But this Zhang Benwu is only six or seven years old, so it's not time to show off this kind of loveliness and elegance, right?

And these light makeup he put on is more like covering up something.

Although Qin Shaoyou made a discovery, he did not rush to point it out.

He didn't want to startle the snake, after all, there was no conclusive evidence.

However, this discovery also made Qin Shaoyou conclude that Zhang Benwu was weird.

I just don't know if this weirdness has something to do with Zhang Benwu's disappearance overnight...

Qin Shaoyou remained calm and continued to look at Zhang Benwu secretly, wanting to see if he could find more, and said with a smile: "Little Young Master, we are from Luocheng to catch the fast, and I have a few questions to ask you."

"Please sir."

Zhang Benwu's voice was indeed hoarse.

The hoarseness is so crisp and sharp that there is no child.

It's a pity that the talent of [Bright Eyes] can't judge the voice, Qin Shaoyou can't tell whether Zhang Benwu is really hoarse, or he pretends to be hoarse.

Zhu Xiucai's eyes moved slightly, wondering if he had discovered anything.

Qin Shaoyou continued to laugh like a weirdo: "We are just a group of fast hunters, and we can't be called gentlemen. Young master, how did you get kidnapped last night? Can you tell us the details."

Zhang Benwu was very cooperative, and explained the process of being abducted and fleeing back. The content was similar to what the concierge said before, but it was more specific.

Qin Shaoyou and Zhu Xiucai asked repeatedly on several key points, and Zhang Benwu also answered no questions.

Seeing that the question is almost the same, and the people are watching the same, Qin Shaoyou did not continue, and said goodbye: "We have finished asking, thank you young master and Master Zhang for your cooperation, I am sorry to disturb you for a long time."

Zhang Shilang hummed and called a servant to see off the guest, while he picked up his good grandson and asked about his recovery.

When Qin Shaoyou walked out of the hall, he looked back at Zhang Shilang.

I don't know if it was a mistake or what was going on, but he felt that Zhang Shilang's spirit and energy had attenuated a lot at this moment.

It's like being 'eaten' a big bite...

After he turned his head again, Zhang Shilang also glanced at his back.

After leaving the hall, Zhu Xiucai came to Qin Shaoyou's side, did not speak, and gave a look.

Qin Shaoyou understood and knew that Zhu Xiucai should also have made some discoveries.

He nodded slightly, without asking any questions, and planned to wait for Zhang's residence before communicating with Zhu Xiucai.

After walking for a while, Qin Shaoyou began to get close to the servant who led the way.

After a few words, he pretended to inadvertently asked: "Master Zhang's health has always been good?"

"It's good. My master cultivates Confucian classics and maintains a righteous spirit. Although he doesn't have a childlike appearance, he is also a treasured sword."

The servant first flattered a few words, and then said, "It's just that I have an exogenous cold today, and I have a cough due to qi deficiency."

"Then you have to find Lang Zhong to take a look, you can't take it lightly."

"I've already found it, and gave me medicine."

"That's fine, that's fine."

Qin Shaoyou nodded again and again, seemingly worried about Zhang Shilang's condition, but actually pondered in his heart:

Zhang Shilang's qi deficiency cough may not be caused by exogenous cold, right?

Zhang Benwu came back today, and Zhang Shilang was also dejected today. Isn't it a bit too coincidental?

He thought of the scene when Zhang Shilang was 'eaten' just now, and couldn't help guessing, could it be Zhang Benwu's 'eat'?

Turning to a courtyard, Qin Shaoyou saw two servants from Zhang's house walking towards him with a dog.

Because of the strange wild dogs in Mianyuan County, Qin Shaoyou is now very sensitive to dogs.

When passing by, he took a closer look and found that the dog's eyes were filled with hope and excitement, but also despair and fear.

So more curious.

He stopped the two servants of Zhang's house and asked, "Why did you hug a dog? Where did this dog come from?"

Although the servants of Zhang Mansion didn't know him, but when he walked out of the mansion, someone led the way, guessing that he should be the master's guest.

The two did not dare to neglect, and saluted and replied:

"We bought this dog outside the door. Before, Lang Zhong came to see the little master and said that he was too frightened and needed to use the dog's heart as medicine to calm the nerves.

We grabbed the medicine in his pharmacy, and on the way back, we happened to meet a butcher who brought a few dogs to sell, so we bought one from him..."

Qin Shaoyou asked, "Do you know the man and the butcher?"

The servants of Zhang's residence replied, "We know Langzhong, Xu Langzhong from Bao'an Tang. The butcher doesn't know him. He seems to have met him before, but he's not familiar with him. I don't know his name."

"Where did the butcher meet him? I think this dog is quite fat, and I plan to buy some from him."

"On the way out and turn left, it's not far away. If you go now, you should be able to catch up with him."

"Okay." Qin Shaoyou nodded and glanced at Zhu Xiucai beside him.

Zhu Xiucai understood what he meant in a second, and immediately ordered a few fighters, gave a few words in a low voice, and asked them to divide into two teams, one team went to the security hall to investigate Xu Langzhong, and the other team went after the butcher who sold the dogs.

Qin Shaoyou hugged the dog from the hands of the servants of Zhang's house, pretended to weigh the weight, and checked the fat and thinness.

Zhu Xiucai said in cooperation, "We have already sent the Heavenly King Tonic Pill to the young master of your house, which is the elixir refined by the great monk of Luohan Temple, and it is the top grade for calming the nerves and calming the fright.

Don't give the little boy something to eat.

Dog meat is dry, and dog heart is more dry.

After all, the young master was young and frightened. It was when his body was weak and qi was weak, how could he use something that is dry and hot as medicine?

Not afraid of eating problems? In this Xu Lang, medical skills seem to be limited. "

Qin Shaoyou sang with him: "yes, don't feed the dog's heart to the young master, otherwise it will worsen the condition, and you can't get rid of it. This dog looks quite fat, so let us give it to us, let's have dinner tonight. Eat well."

"This..."

The servants of Zhang's house hesitated, not knowing whether they should listen to Qin Shaoyou's words.

Seeing this, Qin Shaoyou took out a piece of silver from his pocket and threw it to the two servants of Zhang's house.

"If the dog doesn't take your money for nothing, if you take the money, you should buy your dog."

The two Zhang Family servants took the silver pieces, weighed them, and immediately smiled.

This is more than double the money they spent on buying a dog, and it's worth going back and being scolded.

Besides, if the dog is gone, you can buy it again, or find a way to catch it.

Anyway, there are not too many wild dogs in and out of the city recently.

But if the money is missed, it cannot be earned again.

The two thanked them immediately and walked away happily with the broken silver.

The servant who led the way didn't ask any more questions, just envied the two companions who made a small profit as soon as they lost their hands.

As soon as he walked out of the gate of Zhang Mansion with the dog in his arms, Qin Shaoyou saw that one of the wrestlers who had been sent to the Desolate Temple in Chengdong to inquire about the situation turned back.

"Is there a result at the Desolate Temple in the east of the city?"

After saying goodbye to Zhang's servants, Qin Shaoyou went up to ask.

"Yes."

The warrior nodded and replied, "The arresters and night watchmen from Mianyuan County have already captured the Desolate Temple in the east of the city, not only catching the thief, but also finding the picture scroll mentioned by Zhang Shilang's grandson.

At this moment, they are in the deserted temple in the east of the city, raiding the interrogation of the thieves, and wanting to know how to release the children in the painting.

When the people in and outside the city heard about this, they rushed over and surrounded the deserted temple in the east of the city. "

"Have you really caught the thief and found the picture scroll?"

This result was somewhat beyond Qin Shaoyou's expectations.

He thought for a while and said, "Let's lead the way, let's also go to the Desolate Temple in the east of the city."

On the way, Qin Shaoyou asked Zhu Xiucai, "Did you find something just now?"

Zhu Xiucai nodded and said in a low voice, "Young Master Zhang's hoarse voice is fake."

Really pretend?

Qin Shaoyou was a little curious: "how did you hear it?"

"It's all practice." Zhu Xiucai raised his chest and said proudly, "Don't say that she is hoarse with her throat, even if Sister Yao is screaming, I can tell whether she is really comfortable or pretending."

However, Monk Ma revealed his bottom line: "He used to work on unlocking the house all the time. If he didn't practice his ears, he would have been caught and broken his legs long ago."

"That's all in the past." Zhu Xiucai sneered twice, and then asked, "Sir, have you found anything?"

Qin Shaoyou nodded and shared his findings.

"Make up again, and pretend to be dumb..."

Zhu Xiucai touched the stubble on his chin and made a bold guess.

"Could this Ben Wu be fake?"

Qin Shaoyou said: "I am so suspicious too, but there is no conclusive evidence, so it is not easy to arrest people."

Zhu Xiucai thought for a while and suggested, "How about I go into Zhang's mansion at night and stare at him to see if he will reveal new things?"

Qin Shaoyou thought about it and thought he could try it.

Soon they arrived near the Desolate Temple in the east of the city.

Before I saw the barren temple, the first thing that caught my eye was the scene of a sea of ​​people.

Not only were the inner three floors and the outer three floors surrounded by people, but even the surrounding roofs and treetops also climbed up a lot of people.

Although there are parents and relatives of missing children, there are more people who come to watch the fun.

Qin Shaoyou and the others, relying on their strength, cut through the crowd all the way and came to the gate of the barren temple, leaving a swearing sound behind them.

In the desolate temple, the arresters and night watchmen from Mianyuan County were torturing several thieves who had been tied up by Wuhua.

At the same time, a huge picture scroll was unfolded and stood in the courtyard of the barren temple.

On the picture scroll, people are densely packed.

All children.

Children with different looks and looks.

It's lifelike and creepy!

Different from others, Qin Shaoyou, who has the talent of [Bright Eyes], also saw some other scary and tingling things on this picture scroll.
