After hearing this, Ye Han and the two stopped asking any more questions, but they also guessed something in their hearts. Something important must have happened in the small village where they were before, and this matter was obviously so important that it made people scared.
The point!
Obviously, this matter cannot be as simple as an ordinary massacre of a village. The various things involved may be a major conspiracy.
After this incident, half of the enthusiasm of the previous woman had disappeared. Ye Han and the two knew that she did not want to get into trouble. The orphan had such a change, so they had no choice but to find another place to rest.
After traveling a long way, the two finally came to another home that seemed easier to find, so they decided to stay here for the night, but they were rejected by the other party!
In desperation, Ye Han had no choice but to take Yan Xin and continue walking towards another house not far away. However, before he had time to inquire about where to stay, the other party took the initiative to close the originally open courtyard door. In desperation,
Afterwards, Ye Han had no choice but to give up the idea of choosing this place to stay.
Continuing to move forward, we met several families who were basically in the same situation. Before I could ask questions, the other party closed the door and did not dare to come out for a long time. There were even some houses that were directly visible from not far away.
Ye Han and his two figures were already panicking and fled into the room, not daring to come out.
In this regard, Ye Han could only express his endless helplessness, and at the same time he felt a sense of emotion. He knew that he and he could not find a place to stay today, so they gave up and continued to look for someone else.
Arriving at the river bank not far away, Ye Han was still sitting on the river bank as before, his eyes wandering on the river. He didn't take it back for a long time, but he was thinking in his heart, what kind of serious thing could cause the entire village to
Everyone is afraid of it and keeps away from it?
Yan Xin was thinking about the same problem, but she didn't ask Ye Han in detail, because she saw a look of confusion on Ye Han's face, and she obviously didn't understand it at all.
After sitting for a long time, the sky had turned dark. Stars appeared on the river at the right time. A bright moon also appeared on the river soon, forcing Ye Han to retract his gaze and look up at the sky.
The scene in the sky is obviously the same as that on the river. Around a bright moon, there are countless stars hanging, forming a scene of stars overlapping the moon.
After being immersed in it for a long time, Yan Xin finally couldn't help but smile sweetly and said: "Haha, Brother Han, actually we don't need to be too anxious. Now I think we should not stay here longer, so as not to delay your business!
"
Hearing this, Ye Han remembered that the purpose of his trip was not to investigate the affairs of any village, but to rush to find Ye Rou as soon as possible. As for the problems in the village he was facing now, they were only temporary.
If the matter in this village affects the search for Ye Rou, then he will definitely not do this, but the current situation is not the case. Not only does he know where Ye Rou is, but it is not very far away.
, he will not let things in the village affect his search for Ye Rou at all.
Of course, this is only with the help of insiders. Like now, he is a little entangled and doesn't know what to do. If no insiders reveal any information, then he doesn't know when he will find out.
A result comes.
For this reason, Ye Han fell into silence again. Yan Xin saw it and said nothing. Following Ye Han's gaze, she also began to be attracted by the starry sky. She couldn't help it for a long time.
self.
After a long time, Ye Han finally withdrew his gaze, but Yan Xin didn't take it seriously. He was still looking at the sky blankly, as if thinking about something. Ye Han didn't bother him when he saw it.
When he got close to the lake, Ye Han squatted down and used the clear water from the river to water his face before returning to Yan Xin's side.
At this moment, Yan Xin had already come to her senses. When she saw Ye Han coming back, she stood up from the grass, then came to the river, squatted down slowly, and then washed her face with water.
Seeing Yan Xin pouring water to wash her face on the river bank, Ye Han couldn't help but recall a scene he would never forget in his mind. That was the scene when Ye Rou poured water to wash her face in front of him.
Under the starry sky, Ye Han stood on a stone wall, quietly looking at a silhouette not far away. That silhouette was obviously Ye Rou. At this moment, Ye Rou just reached out and stretched out her hand to touch the stream in front of her.
He picked up the water and poured it on his face.
When Ye Han saw this scene, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart. It looked like a scene of a beautiful lady playing in the water. He looked at it with a bit of obsession in his eyes. It wasn't until Ye Rou turned around and glared at him that he had to
Look back.
However, this was not the most memorable thing for him. The first thing he remembered was the promise made by Ye Rou once.
"Sister Rou, tell me, how wonderful it would be if we could always be by Master's side!"
Seeing Ye Rou's shy and angry gaze directed at him, Ye Han felt ashamed in his heart. He didn't look good in any way, but he kept staring at Sister Rou's face. Wasn't this deliberately looking for embarrassment?
After blaming himself for a while, Ye Han calmed down and let go of everything he had thought about before. Then he looked at the sky and murmured to Ye Rou as if asking.
Ye Rou's face suddenly changed when she heard this. She stared at Ye Han blankly for a long time, then she smiled and said, "I thought you wanted to say something, but it turns out this is what happened? This is easy to handle!"
Regarding Ye Rou's words, Ye Han was filled with pride and asked eagerly: "Is what you said true? Can we really be by Master's side forever?"
As soon as Ye Han finished speaking, Ye Rou nodded seriously, then smiled and said: "Of course, when has my sister ever lied to you? As long as we want to, we can do it!"
After hearing Ye Rou's words, Ye Han felt even more happy. Just when he was about to say something, he heard the voice of his master not far behind him, so he swallowed back everything he wanted to say.
To this day, he will never have time to say this sentence, which has become the biggest regret in Ye Han's heart. For this reason, he must find Ye Rou. No matter what, he must tell Ye Rou what he has been silent in his heart for a long time.
soft.
However, at this moment, he clearly knew how ridiculous his original idea was. Not only was he unable to accompany his master properly, but Ye Rou, who had made a promise, had already broken her promise.
"Sister Rou, I wonder how you are doing now?"
As he thought about it, Ye Han's belief in finding Ye Rou suddenly became more profound. Unable to help himself, Ye Han kept mumbling to himself.
Seeing this, Yan Xin didn't know how to comfort him for a moment, so he had to raise his head again and look at the sky quietly, his eyes full of confusion, and his heart was also very confused.
A long time passed, and Ye Han's desire to pursue the mystery of the small village became less and less intense, while his desire to find Ye Rou became more intense.
After much hesitation, Ye Han chose to find out what happened in the small village first. Even if it couldn't be solved temporarily, he could leave it to be investigated later. At least, this could be regarded as an explanation for his desire to eliminate violence and bring peace of mind.
After spending a night on the riverside, the next day Ye Han and Yan Xin walked towards the wooden house at the end of the village, and soon arrived at the gathering place of the wooden houses.
In Ye Han's mind, since he couldn't get any answers from the residents of these huts, he must be able to get some answers from the mouths of these relatively wealthy people.
After all, poor people do not dare to cause trouble, but in the hearts of some rich people, this is not the case. Some rich people even look forward to getting into trouble every day so that they can spend some money to help themselves.
Eliminate disasters and avoid hunger, money and nowhere to spend.
Of course, these are only a small part, and may be difficult to find in this world, but wealthy people, and even powerful people, generally speaking, are not too afraid of things, otherwise they would not be able to do it.
To the point of making a fortune.
For this reason, the two came outside a wooden house and prepared to find someone to tell them about the situation. However, before they could say anything, there was a middle-aged man who was not very old, but about forty or fifty years old.
Come on, head out of the wooden house.
"You two must have come from the villages upstream, right? Our master has invited you!"
Ye Han just wanted to ask this middle-aged man something, but saw the middle-aged man look at him and the others and asked first.
The two of them were very puzzled by this. They clearly didn't say anything. Why did the other party suddenly ask this question? He obviously knew the whereabouts of the two of them very well, but what on earth was going on?
Thinking of this question, Ye Han had no choice but to express non-commitment to the middle-aged man's words, nodded and said: "Yes, we just arrived here from the village upstream yesterday. I wonder how your master knew about it?"
The middle-aged man smiled and did not answer Ye Han's words, but kept his gaze on Yan Xin. He nodded with a smile and said, "That's right. Previously, a young man said that he was Lie Yuan.
As for who he is from the city, he didn't say who he is, but from what he said, it seems that he is looking for a girl of thirteen or fourteen years old."
As he spoke, the middle-aged man's eyes fell on Yan Xin again, and then he said again: "If I guess correctly, you must be the girl he is looking for, right?"
Yan Xin was stunned when he heard this, and then a look of joy flashed on his face. He nodded quickly and said, "Yes, that must be my eldest brother. I wonder if uncle knows where my brother is now?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said nothing. Yan Xin was a little surprised when he saw this. Just when he was about to ask again, he heard a chuckle coming from the wooden house, and soon a white-haired old man walked out of the wooden house.
out.
