Wanghai County, Changping Village.

There was no need for Hongxiu to remind Yang Ruoqing that she had actually noticed what was on the other side of the road when she was on the wall.

The main road was built by Yang Ruoqing a few years ago after Yang Yongxian had half repaired it. He spent a lot of money to build a nearly five-meter-wide stone road leading to Qingshui Town.

From Changping Village to Qingshui Town, it is a little over ten miles one way. Yang Ruoqing built this road for ten miles. Basically, he built a special route from Changping Village to Qingshui Town. Along this road, one line

All the villages on the left and right have benefited.

At this moment, at the end of the road, as far as the two of them could see, there were four or five black figures heading this way quickly.

"Sister, those people are so strange. They came here in a carriage, but they just wanted to park the carriage on the same spot and walk over by themselves. What does this mean?" Hongxiu asked again in a low voice.

Yang Ruoqing also couldn't understand this situation.

You said that if you are coming from a town or from another village, since there are carriages and the road is not meters wide and is made of bluestone, even if it rains, there will be no mud that will trap the wheels.

Besides, it hasn't rained yet and the ground is very dry. Why do you have to park the carriage there and walk the remaining mile or so by yourself?

Aren't you tired from walking? Then why do you need a carriage?

Also, it was almost early in the morning, and these people entered the village without lighting torches or lanterns. They walked quietly in the dark, with the moonlight above their heads being their only source of light.

"Their walking posture is so light and tiptoeing, as if they are afraid of disturbing others, and they are sneaky." Yang Ruoqing also analyzed the other party's walking posture.

"Sister, are you here to steal something?" Hong Xiu asked.

Because there had been a similar theft incident in Changping Village before, and it was also disguised as a ghost, which made people panic.

"Stealing something? Probably not." Yang Ruoqing squinted her eyes and observed the figures approaching here.

"Could it be that bandits or robbers came to raid the place?" Hong Xiu came up with a new guess.

Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but want to laugh, "Your awareness of safety hazards is really quite good, but it shouldn't be that bad."

"Sister, who do you think they are? It is impossible for a normal person to enter the village so quietly at night!" Hongxiu tightened her cloak and asked again.

It was so cold that the dripping water turned into ice at night. She risked her life to accompany Junzi on some errands, but what was the reason for those people? Hongxiu couldn't figure it out!

"It's such a cold night, wouldn't it be good to hide in a warm bed and sleep?" She couldn't help but murmured in a low voice.

Because these people sneaked into the village, she and Sister Qing'er's plan had to be temporarily shelved, and they could only hide in the corner and spy.

"Sleeping under the covers?" Yang Ruoqing caught Hongxiu's words, took a deep breath, and raised her eyebrows slightly, as if she thought of something.

Hong Xiu did not disturb her thoughts, because Hong Xiu's eyes were firmly fixed on the moving black figures in front of her eyes.

Those people had arrived near the Luo family's yard. Their pace seemed eager, but at the same time they were cautious.

At this time, Yang Ruoqing also spoke out again: "Get rid of the one guarding the carriage over there. What I saw when entering the village were three women and two men."

Hong Xiu nodded, "That's what I saw. One of the women looks a bit old. She must be almost fifty, right?"

Yang Ruoqing said: "That woman looks familiar to me. I seem to have seen her somewhere."

The other party was definitely not from Changping Village, but where had he met him? Yang Ruoqing couldn't remember it at the moment.

Seeing that the five people over there had come over, Yang Ruoqing and Hongxiu paused their conversation. They ducked down and successfully avoided the probing eyes of those people. After a while, they raised their heads again and found that the five people were heading towards them.

Walking in the direction of the village, we are almost past Tangba.

Yang Ruoqing's eyes were blazing, and there was no trace of sleepiness at all: "Let's go, let's follow and take a look."

Hongxiu nodded.

The two followed the few people through the pond, and when they arrived under the old maple tree, the five people in front stopped. They bumped their heads together, as if they were discussing something in a low voice.

Yang Ruoqing and Hongxiu were both practicing practitioners, and their ears were unusually strong. They both listened with their ears bent.

But I heard one of the middle-aged men ask the eldest woman: "Sister, are you sure my brother-in-law is really hiding in Changping Village?"

The older woman gritted her teeth and said, "Yes, that old guy is not serious at his age and has a house full of children and grandchildren. I beat him several times and he still argued with me!"

"We're going to catch him today and see how he can still quibble!"

"Sister, where should we go next? This village is too big and we have never been there before?" the middle-aged man asked again.

The older woman looked around, as if looking for something on the ground, and then she pointed in one direction: "He went over there, let's go!"

Several people turned around and headed somewhere south of the village.

Behind them, Yang Ruoqing and Hongxiu also leaned out, looking suspiciously at the direction they were walking away.

"That direction is also the direction we want to investigate. Is it a coincidence?" Yang Ruoqing said to herself.

Hong Xiu said: "Ignore those things for now, let's quickly follow him and have a look."

Yang Ruoqing nodded, and the two hit it off and followed each other tacitly.

The few people talked in low voices as they walked, and stopped from time to time outside the small yards of the houses on the roadside as if to identify something.

He shook his head and nodded for a while, and finally walked all the way to the south of the village and arrived outside the courtyard of Heifeng's house.

The woman who was hesitant before pointed to the courtyard of Heifeng's house and told the two men and two women behind her with great certainty: "This is it, I'm sure!"

One of the middle-aged men had already begun to roll up his sleeves and cursed through gritted teeth: "Damn it, my slap is already itching!"

Another younger man said to the middle-aged man with a sad face: "Uncle, that is my father after all, please don't be so harsh!"

The middle-aged man stared at the young man, "Your father did something wrong to your mother, and you still plead for him? Do you have a conscience? Can you treat your mother?"

The young man looked at the older woman with guilt on his face.

The remaining two middle-aged women whispered to the side: "Let's not talk about that for now. Let's go in quickly and catch them. Don't let them escape!"

Everyone else nodded in unison, and then the young man climbed over the wall of Heifeng's house, went in, opened the wooden bolt on the back of the courtyard door for them, and let them into the courtyard.

Not far away, Hongxiu looked at the courtyard wall of Heifeng's house, expressing confusion.

"Sister Qing'er, look, other people's courtyard walls have tried their best to heighten and strengthen them, just to prevent anyone from climbing in. Why is the Heifeng family's courtyard wall built the other way around? It's too easy to climb.
