Chapter 373 The Missing Hou Er

"Leave? What happened? Are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Lin Yuhuai looked at Ye Qing, puzzled.

"Well, something happened." Ye Qing said: "After I entered the inner collection, I encountered some troubles. I offended... uh... offended a big shot. I'm afraid they will come looking for me soon, so I have to leave here first.

." Ye Qing said slowly.

Regarding the ghost building, he really couldn't go into details, so he could only make a specious statement.

"Big shot? How big is it?" Chu Nianjiu said.

"A man is too big to fit in one pot." Ye Qing said smoothly, can I tell you that I not only offended the big shots in Fengdu, but also offended the big shots in the world?

"Wu Huan, you really get into trouble wherever you go!" Chu Nianjiu teased.

"I didn't want to, either." Ye Qing touched his nose. This time he simply fell into the hands of a woman. As expected, the more beautiful the woman, the less trustworthy she is.

"In this case, it's not too late. Let's leave here first." Lin Yuhuai thought for a moment and said.

"No, what I mean is that I will leave alone and you don't have to." Ye Qing smiled.

"What do you mean you're alone?" Chu Nianjiu asked.

Ye Qing smiled and said: "If we are all here, what will happen to Peng Hu? If the person who performed the Five Punishment Sacrifice appears, Peng Hu and the others will be in danger. So, you have to stay here to help Peng Hu."

As for whether the people in Guilou would be unfavorable to Chu Nianjiu, Lin Yuhuai, and the little Taoist priest, he wasn't very worried.

People who come to the ghost house may not know that Chu Nianjiu and others are related to him, and it will embarrass them.

Secondly, this is the earthly world, and people who come to the ghost house don't dare to act recklessly in the earthly world.

"Then what should you do?" Lin Yuhuai frowned.

"It's okay, it's safer for me to be alone!" Ye Qing said honestly: "I'm already in the middle stage of God-cleansing."

Chu Nianjiu: "..."

Chu Nianjiu: "..."

I was looked down upon and felt offended.

However, they have to admit that they did not leave without Ye Qing, so when they encounter trouble, not only will they not be able to help, they will probably hold Ye Qing back.

"Okay!" Lin Yuhuai and Chu Nianjiu thought about it for a while, and finally agreed to Ye Qing's suggestion.

"Okay, I'll leave now. Brother Peng hasn't come back yet. You can let Brother Peng know when the time comes." Ye Qing smiled.

"By the way, where is Xuanyun?" Ye Qing asked suddenly. He had not seen the little Taoist priest since he returned to Fengxiangji.

"He went to Hou Er's house!" Chu Nianjiu said.

"What's wrong?" Ye Qing asked curiously.

Lin Yuhuai said: "As soon as we came back, Hou Er's sister-in-law came to see us and said that Hou Er was missing. The little Taoist went over to take a look first. We were about to go there too."

"I'm just passing by, let's go and have a look together. I'll also say goodbye to Xuanyun." Ye Qing said.

"What happened? Why did Hou Er disappear?" Ye Qing asked on the way.

Lin Yuhuai said: "We don't know very well. From what Mrs. Hou meant, when she delivered food to Hou Er this morning, she called for a long time but no one opened the door. She was confused, so she pushed the door open and walked in.

But I searched all the houses and couldn't find Hou Er."

"Isn't this strange? Isn't it normal for people like Hou Er to leave early and come home late or stay up all night?" Ye Qing shrugged.

"That's what we said too, but Sister-in-law Hou insisted that it wasn't the case. However, she was stumbling over her words at the time and couldn't speak clearly, so Xuan Yun went over to take a look."

While the three of them were talking, they had already arrived at Hou Er's house.

After entering the door, I saw the crying Mrs. Hou and the little Taoist priest.

"Xuan Yun, how's it going?"

Ye Qing asked casually. As soon as he entered the door, he used his magic thoughts to sense it. He found nothing except some faint yin energy. These yin energy should be left by the fusion of the yin and yang realms last night. As long as

It will dissipate as soon as the sun shines and will not affect people.

"Brother Ye, you are here!" The little Taoist saw Ye Qing and the others and said hello, then said with a serious face: "Sister-in-law Hou is right, Hou Er is indeed missing."

"Huh? Didn't you come back, or did you go out early?" Chu Nianjiu said in astonishment.

"No, Hou Er was indeed at home last night and didn't go out in the morning." The little Taoist pointed at Hou Er's bed and said firmly: "Look..."

"Hou Er's bed and bedding are messy, clothes are thrown randomly on the bed, and there are shoes on the floor. Sister Hou said that Hou Er was wearing these clothes when he came home last night. Apparently Hou Er came back last night."

"Then it's also possible that after Hou Er returned home, he changed his clothes and left again." Lin Yuhuai said.

"Impossible." The little Taoist priest said firmly: "Hou Er is a bachelor, and his clothes were bought by Aunt Hou. Aunt Hou just checked, and there is no missing piece of Hou Er's clothes."

"Nothing is missing, Sister-in-law Hou, are you sure?" Ye Qing also realized something was wrong.

"Well, I'm sure." Sister-in-law Hou cried.

"Hou Er's clothes and shoes are all here, how can anyone go out without clothes? Isn't it strange?" The little Taoist priest said solemnly: "Also, I checked the doors and windows. They are all locked from the inside of the house.

There is no secret passage, so I am very sure that Hou Er has never left since he returned home."

"So, he disappeared out of thin air from this room."

"I checked carefully and everything is exactly as Xuan Yun said."

Lin Yuhuai also came back at this time and said.

"But I don't feel any weird aura here, how could Hou Er disappear? It's strange?!" Chu Nian took a sip of wine and said.

"You guys will search carefully to see if there are any clues. I'll go to Mrs. Hou to ask something?" Ye Qing thought for a moment and said.

"Okay." Lin Yuhuai and the others responded and started searching inside and outside the house. Ye Qing came to Mrs. Hou.

"Sir, have you found my Hou Er?" Sister-in-law Hou asked hurriedly when she saw Ye Qing.

"We haven't found it yet." Ye Qing shook his head and said, "Sister-in-law Hou, I have a few questions to ask you now. You must answer them truthfully. Is this related to Hou Er's life or death?"

"Yes...yes..." Sister-in-law Hou suppressed the anxiety and worry in her heart and replied: "Excuse me, sir?"

Ye Qing asked: "That's right, why were you so sure that Hou Er disappeared instead of going out on his own?"

The little Taoist priests are warriors with amazing observation skills. It is not surprising that they can find these details. But Sister Hou is just an ordinary person, so it is a bit strange that she was so sure in advance.

Sister-in-law Hou said: "Yes...it's like this. Hou Er was a little strange all day yesterday. He was in a daze. When he came back last night, he drank some wine and was drunk. He even shouted about ghosts and ghosts.

I couldn't sleep well, that's why I thought something happened to Hou Er...he."

"That's right!" Ye Qing nodded to express understanding: "When we saw Hou Er yesterday, something was indeed wrong with him. He said he didn't sleep well."

"I just didn't sleep well." Sister-in-law Hou said, "After Hou Er finished helping some young men yesterday, he asked me to cook him a bowl of soothing soup, and then he went home to sleep."

"I was at Hou Er's house, helping him wash clothes. Hou Er had a very uneasy sleep. He often woke up when he fell asleep. I only stayed outside for a while, and he woke up several times. Every time

He was sweating profusely and his face was pale."

"That's right!" Ye Qing frowned.

"Young master, you must save Hou Er. I... The man in my family died early. The whole family depends on Hou Er. If something happens to Hou Er, I... what will our family do?" Hou

The sister-in-law wiped away her tears and begged: "I beg you, I will kneel down for you..."

"No, Sister-in-law Hou, you don't have to be like this." Ye Qing supported Sister-in-law Hou and comforted her: "Don't worry, Sister-in-law Hou, we will definitely do our best."

"Okay, thank you very much, sir, thank you very much, sir." Sister-in-law Hou thanked her.

"You're welcome." Ye Qing nodded. At this time, Lin Yuhuai, Chu Nianjiu and the little Taoist priest had already completed the search. When they saw Ye Qing, they all shook their heads, saying that they had not found any clues.

"There was no strange aura, and there was no sign of struggle. It was as if Hou Er was lying on the bed and suddenly disappeared." Lin Yuhuai looked at Ye Qing and said.

"Could it be that Hou Er offended someone and was taken away?" said the little Taoist priest.

"Probably not. Didn't you just say that Hou Er's doors and windows are intact? If someone really catches Hou Er, there will be no trace left." Chu Nianjiu said.

"Then all that's left is... weirdness?!" the little Taoist whispered.

"It's possible." Ye Qing touched his nose and told the three of them the doubtful points that Sister Hou mentioned just now.

"Young masters, how are you doing with Hou Er?" Seeing that the four of them fell silent, Mrs. Hou asked hurriedly.

"We haven't found him yet, but don't worry, Sister-in-law Hou, we will definitely find Hou Er." Ye Qing comforted him: "Sister-in-law Hou, you go ahead and do your work first. We will leave Hou Er's affairs to us."

"Okay, okay, thank you very much, sir, thank you very much, sir, then I will go and get started." Sister-in-law Hou thanked her twice, turned and left.

"well……"

After the sister-in-law left, the four of them looked at each other and sighed.

They said they would try their best to find Hou Er, which was just a word of comfort. If it was really a weird thing, Hou Er would probably be dead by now.

Therefore, all they can do is to find that weirdo as much as possible, avenge Hou Er, and prevent more people from being in danger.

"Wu Huan, please go first, we will leave the matters here to us." Lin Yuhuai patted Ye Qing's shoulder and said.

"Let's go? Brother Ye, where are you going? Are you leaving Fengxiangji?" the little Taoist priest asked strangely.

"Well, I have something to do and I have to leave first." Ye Qing smiled and said, "I came here specifically to say goodbye to you, Xuan Yun."

"Ah... aren't you going to Tianyong with us?" the little Taoist priest said.

"I have important things to do, so I have to leave first, so I won't go to Tianyong with you." Ye Qing patted the little Taoist priest on the shoulder and said:

"We will meet in heaven."

"What's the matter? Do you want my help?" the little Taoist asked.

"No need, I can handle it on my own." Ye Qing smiled and said, "Okay, I'll leave first."

"Brother Ye, you have to be careful!" the little Taoist priest said with concern.

"Don't worry, I will be careful." Ye Qing said: "You must also pay attention to safety. Fengxiangji is a place of right and wrong. It is not advisable to stay for a long time. You must leave as soon as possible."

The four of them were chatting and walking outside. When they left the room, the painting hanging in the center of the room suddenly shook twice.

In the painting, the two people with their backs to the outside slowly turned around and looked at Ye Qing and others leaving, with a strange smile on their faces.
