    Zhuo Bufan didn't react, and asked strangely: "Missed? Wasn't there a flower following him? Did he go somewhere to play?"

    Li Qiu Shui has never shown such an anxious look before. Little Ling Dang is a treasure in the eyes of the female relatives of Shenlong Mountain. She has a cheerful and lively personality, without many scruples and taboos of Dahua women, and is very popular with everyone.  At the same time, everyone knows the identity of her extraordinary wife, but she who has lost her memory does not know it, which is even more pitiful.  []

    Li Qiushui stamped her feet and raised her voice and said, "It's really missing. Just a flower, a flower, come in!"

    When a frightened Yi Zhihua appeared in front of Zhuo Bufan, Zhuo Bufan's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and his whole heart felt as if someone had grabbed it, which was particularly uncomfortable.  Yi Zhi Hua has never been so uneasy and fearful. The look she looked at Zhuo Bu Fan contained guilt and anxiety. Suddenly, Yi Zhi Hua took a step forward and knelt down in front of Zhuo Bu Fan. This kneeling made Zhuo Bu Fan's heart feel like it was falling into an ice cave.  .

    Yi Zhihua was originally of a high seniority. Strictly speaking, he was of the same generation as Zhuo Yin. They were both Li Zhi's apprentices. After entering Shenlong Mountain, he never regarded himself as an elder. At the same time, he always had some illusions about Zhuo Bufan, and even more so.  It was because he was unwilling to raise his own status and cause trouble to himself. Over time, he gradually integrated into the Shenlongshan family, and his feelings for Zhuo Bufan became increasingly stronger.  Even so, this kneeling was still very surprising, and it also made Zhuo Bufan understand the seriousness of the matter.

    "I, I." Yi Zhihua stammered: "I was playing with Xiao Lingdang in the back mountain in the morning. She suddenly said that she would come to you by herself and wouldn't let me follow. It happened that Lian Yunzhai came to do something.  , I haven¡¯t seen my old friend for a long time, and I thought that since she came to see you, there would be no problem, so I didn¡¯t follow her. Who knew, who knew"

    Zhuo Bufan almost screamed and asked Yi Zhihua to speak quickly, but he bit his lip and suppressed the anxiety in his heart. Instead, he stepped forward to help Yi Zhihua. He did not speak, but just looked at Yi Zhihua. The anxiety in his eyes showed that  everything.  Seeing this scene, Li Zhi, who was also nervous at the side, nodded secretly. This young man who was once just a young man has grown up.

    Seeing Zhuo Bufan's eyes, Yi Zhihua bit her lip and said, "Who would have thought that I came to look for Xiao Lingdang two hours ago, but I learned that she had never been here at all. I have searched all over the front and back mountains, but I couldn't find it.  No one has seen her."

    Hearing this, Zhuo Bufan said with hope, "Maybe she is acting like a child again and is hiding somewhere on purpose."

    Yi Zhi Hua shook her head, her eyes already showing moisture, lowered her head and said: "If she hides, I will definitely find her. An hour ago, I went to find Sister Xue'er, and the Shenyin Camp has also been searching for an hour, but there is also no one."  Found. And, and, and found strange things."

    Zhuo Bufan's heart skipped a beat again, and he had a very bad premonition, because he knew that what Yi Zhihua said was true. If she wanted to find someone, I'm afraid no one could escape him.  And Xiao Lingdang doesn't know martial arts. How far can he run in half a day at most?  If you are riding a horse, the movement will be even greater and no one will see it.  Then, there must be some other situation that makes sense.

    Yi Zhihua continued: "Sister Xue'er has already investigated. Today there are only a few relatives who went out to the mountain. They were all on foot and could not bring little bells with them. Apart from that, there was only one carriage from Shenyin Camp going out for business.  The destination was Chao County. However, during the investigation, sister Xueer discovered that the two people who came out of the mountain had not returned the two Shenlong muskets that were supposed to be handed over to the treasury, and neither the ammunition nor the Thunder God. It was very strange. Continuing to investigate, they found that the Ministry of Science and Technology had two  People were killed and a large amount of technical information was stolen.¡±

    Zhuo Bufan had a stern look on his face, slowly sat back on his seat, and asked: "People from Shenyin Camp? Who are they? What's their background."

    "They are people who followed Tong Lao all the way to Shenlong Mountain from Tianshan Mountain. A man and a woman are husband and wife. The man's name is Yan Shiba and the woman's name is Mu Liangzi. They are both about forty years old. I don't know the details.  ." Yi Zhihua also knew that the situation was not good at this time. It seemed that these two people were not in a good way, killing people and stealing things, and the little bell disappeared at the same time, which made people think of the two things together.  These two people are both martial arts masters. If the little bell really falls into their hands, life or death is unknown.  Thinking of this, the tears that Yi Zhihua had been holding back finally fell silently. At this time, Yi Zhihua did not look like a top expert, but more like a little girl who had done something wrong.

    Zhuo Bufan felt a sudden anxiety in his heart. He almost jumped up and rushed out to find Xiao Lingdang. Don't take any chances. Xiao Lingdang's disappearance must be related to these two people. Stealing weapons and technical information is like what spies do.  And I am afraid that I captured Xiao Lingdang just in case to facilitate my escape. As a person from the Shenyin Camp, I naturally know the details of Xiao Lingdang and her importance on the Shenlong.  If this is the case, the little bell should not be life-threatening in a short period of time.  Thinking of this, Zhuo Bufan felt a little more at ease.Li Zhi, who had been thinking beside him, suddenly said: "Little Lingdang should not be in danger for the time being. Has the Shenyin Camp been tracking her? Can you please invite Child Elder to come? She should know these two people.", to understand the other party's situation.  Only by knowing the origin can we make the next step.

    Before she finished speaking, Child Elder's voice came: "I'm already here, I know these two people."

    Immediately, Child Elder walked through the door and said directly without any nonsense: "These two people are from Japan."

    The words shocked everyone, and Zhuo Bufan was even more shocked. Aren¡¯t the Japanese people just like little Japan?  Uh, little Japanese spy?  No.

    Child Elder, with Zhuo Yin's humility, sat down aside and continued: "Xue'er has led people to chase after her, and there will be news soon. These two people came to my Tianchi more than ten years ago. At that time, their  The Chinese language was still very stiff, and although I was wearing Hanfu, my weapons were two Japanese swords, one long and one short. At that time, the harm caused by the Japanese pirates in the East China Sea was still fresh in the memory of the world, and few Japanese dared to go deep into Dahua, so I remember it relatively clearly.  The man's name is Shanshi Shiba, and the woman's name is Hemu Liangzi. Although their sword skills are fierce, and their use and retraction are very distinctive, their strength is average. I remember that according to what they said at the time, they were traveling to China to seek the essence of martial arts.  They were defeated at the hands of the Taoist priests and stayed in Tianchi as promised. More than ten years later, they became like the Chinese, their names were changed to Chinese names, and they acted very safely. Humph, I didn't expect that they would tolerate it.  It¡¯s been so long, but I¡¯ve lost my sight.¡±

    Although Child Elder's face was still expressionless, Zhuo Bufan knew that Child Elder, who could not express his emotions or anger, was already angry in his heart.

    Child Elder said nothing and stopped talking. Although these masters are now incorporated into Shenyin Camp, they always brought them here by themselves. Thousands of brothers in the Shenlong Army have not made any mistakes for so long, but Shenyin Camp has now made such a mistake.  How can I not be angry in my heart? You know, the Wang Luo matter has not yet come to an end.  Moreover, these two scum not only killed people and stole the secrets of Shenlong Mountain, but also tied up Zhuo Bufan's wife, Xiao Lingdang, who had lost her memory.  Child Elder also liked Little Lingdang very much, and she had already made up her mind that she would not spare these two spies no matter what.

    The little bug in front of the rooster appeared in Zhuo Bufan's mind, and at the same time he recalled the relevant history. At this time, Japan seemed to be in the shogunate period. The last time he heard that there were Japanese pirate activities along the coast, he looked through the information.  During this period, Japan was probably also suffering from famine, had economic problems, and entered a period of semi-lockdown.  Combined with this first discovery of Japan's activities in Dahua, it proves that Japan's attention to Dahua is continuous and in-depth. I am afraid it is a planned strategic behavior of the shogunate.  More than ten years ago, or even further back, it is unknown how many spies Japan sent to Dahua with the help of Japanese pirate activities and the trade between the two countries. And the recent Japanese pirate activities along the coast may have something to do with this kind of strategic spying.

    It seems that we need to pay more attention to this island country in the future. We must know that this humble island country in our own time once brought huge disasters to China.

    These things can be considered in the future. Now, this kind of activity in Japan has directly offended Shenlong Mountain and threatened the safety of his relatives. If something happens to Xiao Lingdang, hum.

    Not long after, there was a noise outside the door. Xueer's voice touched Zhuo Bufan's nerves. Zhuo Bufan quickly stood up and walked directly out the door.

    Xueer and several of his men hurried over, Zhuo Bufan's heart sank, the little bell did not appear as he expected.

    "Feifan, I'm sorry, we didn't find them." Xue'er said hesitantly: "We chased the carriage twenty miles southeast and found nothing on it. There were river forks everywhere, and the brothers had dispersed to search, but  ", the implication is that it may be difficult to find traces again.

    Zhuo Bufan was stunned for a while, then looked up to the southeastern horizon. It was getting late and the sky was a little gloomy.  From here you can reach the seaside from east to south, with rivers extending in all directions. Finding people is like finding a needle in a haystack, which is not easy.

    He silently returned to the house and sat on the chair in a daze.  Xue'er and others also entered. At this time, Fu Wancheng heard the news and hurried back. Everyone gathered in the study, which was very crowded.

    Seeing Zhuo Bufan's expression, Child Elder sighed: "Bufan, don't worry, I will definitely help you find the little bell. Shenyin Camp can transfer most of its troops back, plus the various units of the Shenlong Army and General Liu's people  We are also in contact with many government offices in the south of the Yangtze River. If they want to return to Japan, they will definitely go to the coast. We will intercept them in a roundabout way, and at the same time strictly inspect the sea passage, we will definitely find clues."

    Li Zhi next to him suddenly hesitated to speak, and finally did not say anything. At this time, how could Zhuo Bufan care about matters outside the customs.

    At this time, Zhuo Bufan felt like a knife was cutting through his heart. What Child Elder said was true. According to his past temper, he should have already ridden out of the mountain and led the Shenlong Army to search and rescue Xiao Lingdang.  However, what happened to the Chinese army outside the Pass?Done.  Losing the important land outside the customs will cost tens of thousands of lives in the future.

    There is no one else but himself who might be able to convince Hong Chengchou, the most critical candidate for this plan. Moreover, time is already pressing and there is no room for any delay.

    With his right fist clenched tightly and his nails digging into his flesh, Zhuo Bufan used this pain to suppress the anxiety in his heart. The pain of growing up was so unbearable.
