After recording the video, Han Yu took away the new mobile phone, walked out of the room, and went to communicate with Wang Xiaoyu.
Han Xiaosheng had no choice but to sit cross-legged and meditate and continue to practice the Black Water Technique. He did not go to bed until 10 o'clock in the evening.
At midnight, all the lights in Longmen Town were extinguished. Except for the lanterns hung in front of the large buildings, the rest of the town was plunged into darkness.
The street was silent except for the wind blowing through the street, picking up some dust and fallen leaves.
In the yard that was burned to a white ground during the day, a gust of wind blew, and the sky was filled with burned ashes, with a little warmth and a kind of deathly silence.
Suddenly, the big tree outside the wall shook, and a black shadow flashed across the wall, heading towards the ruins.
When he arrived in front of him, the black figure stopped. It was a tall man in black, wrapped in black cloth, with only a pair of eyes exposed.
The man in black circled around the ruins and found that the ruins had cooled down, so he began to rummage through the ruins.
After searching for a long time and finding nothing, the man in black cursed, left the ruins, climbed up the wall, and disappeared among the branches and leaves of the big tree.
The yard was silent, except for the chirping of crickets and frogs from time to time, and all living creatures seemed to have fallen asleep.
Ten minutes later, a bush in the yard shook slightly, then began to rise, moving little by little toward the ruins.
The faint moonlight began to shine through the clouds into the courtyard, revealing a man covered in weeds, another man in black.
The slender man in black rummaged around the ruins for a long time, muttered for a while, returned to the corner, and soon disappeared into the grass.
In the yard, the chirping of frogs and crickets became lively again.
An hour passed, the darkness began to fade little by little, and another person climbed over the wall.
This man was dressed in white and stood out in the dark. He had a folding fan in his right hand and moved quickly.
The figure of the man in white soon appeared on the ruins. The man in white was very patient and searched for half an hour. Seeing that it was almost dawn, the man in white cursed and quickly crossed the wall and disappeared into the night.
The eastern sky gradually became brighter, and a rooster from somewhere began to crow, causing a series of roosters to crow.
When Han Xiaosheng got up, it was almost nine o'clock. If Han Yu hadn't knocked on the door, he would still be sleeping.
It was his first time to kill someone yesterday. His mind and body were too stimulated and consumed. Even though he went to bed very early at night, he still couldn't get any rest and was still a little tired in the morning.
When he opened the door, he saw Han Yu standing outside the door.
Han Xiaosheng looked at Han Yu and found that she was different from last night, but he couldn't see any difference.
After thinking about what happened last night, his eyes lit up:
"Have you recovered?"
Han Yu smiled like a hundred flowers in bloom.
"I have recovered three successes, but it is enough to protect myself in Longmen Town."
Han Xiaosheng was overjoyed and couldn't help but congratulate him repeatedly.
Han Yu turned around and left, calling him to eat.
When they arrived at the main room, they saw that he and Han Yu were alone. There were two bowls of white porridge and two steamed buns on the table.
Seeing his doubts, Han Yu explained:
"They've finished eating and left us breakfast."
The two chatted while eating. After eating, they tidied up and prepared to go out.
In the yard, the two met Wang Xiaoyu and two children who were returning. When they saw them going out, they quickly stopped them.
After letting the two children play in the yard, Wang Xiaoyu took them into Han Xiaosheng's house and said somewhat seriously:
"Something happened last night!"
Seeing that the two of them were listening attentively, she continued:
"Last night, something happened to two families. They both lived on the street and were doing business. They got up early. As a result, the whole family died. A watchman discovered it."
Han Xiaosheng thought of the third leader of the thieves yesterday and asked:
"I wonder if there is anything unusual in the yard where the fire took place?"
"I heard from my man that the yard was messed up last night. It seemed like someone was looking for something."
Han Xiaosheng and Han Yu looked at each other and thought of the supplies they found yesterday.
If you are looking for supplies, only those supplies can be used, but after a fire, there should be nothing left behind.
So, what are those people looking for?
Seeing that both of them were deep in thought, Wang Xiaoyu warned:
"I suggest that you don't go out today. The atmosphere in the town is not right recently. I heard from the powerful that there are several groups of people coming to the town, not just horse thieves and Mr. Shi, but also other forces."
Han Xiaosheng said a little puzzled:
"According to common sense, Longmen Town is just a small place and is not worthy of the efforts of these forces. The horse thieves can be interpreted as seeking money, killing people or taking revenge. If other forces are here, they must have some agenda."
Having said this, he glanced at Han Yu and Wang Xiaoyu, saw them nodding, and continued his analysis:
"I think there are several possibilities for Longmen Town to be remembered. The first is that it itself is an important location or node, such as a battleground for military strategists, or the junction of two groups of forces.
The second possibility is that there are treasures or relics to be discovered here.
The third possibility is that important mineral deposits or natural treasures have been discovered nearby, and this can be used as a foothold.
The fourth possibility is that there is something like a treasure map here, and someone wants to fight for it.
Of course, there is another possibility. The successor of a certain big force has appeared here. They have just discovered that of course they want to take him back. As for the hostile forces, of course they want to strangle them here. "
Seeing the two people's stunned looks, Han Xiaosheng felt a little proud.
"How about it? My analytical skills are pretty good, I think. I can be a qualified military advisor."
Han Yu and Wang Xiaoyu both turned and left, leaving him confused.
After thinking about it for a while, I remembered that I had to go to Baibao Pavilion to do something yesterday. Because Master Shi couldn't do anything there, I put on my hiking bag and went out.
Han Yu caught up from behind, walked side by side with him, and said:
"Although I have recovered some of my skills, I am still a little worried and want to go to that yard to have a look."
Han Xiaosheng thought about it and felt that the people last night were a bit strange. He wanted to know what they were looking for, so he agreed to go to the scene together.
The two of them had something on their minds, so they walked faster and were soon on the street.
The street was livelier and more popular than yesterday. I guess it was the beating of the thin bamboo pole yesterday that turned the cowardice of the townspeople into a broken pot and inspired the courage in their chests.
The two of them walked along the long street and saw many acquaintances from yesterday. Han Xiaosheng nodded or greeted them all.
When they arrived at the alley, Han Xiaosheng and the two found two people standing on both sides of the alley, as if they were standing guard.
Seeing them wanting to turn into the alley, the two people stretched out their hands to stop them:
"Our boss is inside, so it's not convenient. You can go in later."
