Different from Chen Shusheng’s Sleepwalking in One Hundred Cities.

The next day.

Detective Wang rode his horse nearly a thousand miles before arriving at Sun County outside Pingcheng in the morning.

This county is only thirty miles away from Lingcheng.

Originally, Detective Wang was planning to rush over in one go.

But when there were twenty miles left, he slowly dismounted and wanted to switch to walking.

I have been riding for many days, and I feel uncomfortable everywhere.

After all, his farthest riding route was from Zhou County to Liangcheng, a total of more than 100 miles.

You can also take a rest on the way, and you can take a rest at any place, there is no time limit.

But this time he traveled thousands of miles. Although he might not be busy when he arrived, there was a prescribed time before arriving. As a result, when he passed the official posthouse on the way, he had to change horses more and rest less.

He couldn't help but get off his horse. After walking a few steps, he sat down on the grass outside the official road.

Let’s rest comfortably for a while before talking.

Anyway, it is finalized that it will arrive at night tonight.

There are still six hours before nightfall.

As Captain Wang thought about it, he felt that it was better to lie down than to sit, and to sleep instead of lying down.

So he got up and walked to the edge of the forest not far away, tied up the horse, took off a small thin mat, chose a flat and dry place under the tree to spread it, and then lay down comfortably.

Maybe I haven’t had a good rest these past few days.

Just basking in the sun and smelling the fragrance of flowers, Agent Wang quickly fell asleep without even realizing it.

Also when Detective Wang quickly fell into sleep.

Half an hour passed.

In a forest five miles away.

There was a well-dressed old man riding a horse with a five or six-year-old child.

And this old man is from Xuncheng, known as Xiang Daxia in the world, and he is an extremely accomplished master.

His strong internal strength is enough to rank among the top twenty in the Wu Dynasty.

But he retired five years ago because he had a grandson.

But this child has grown up hearing about the Jianghu story and yearns for the Jianghu very much.

When he heard that a hero had emerged from Pingcheng, he pestered his grandfather to come to Pingcheng.

Xiang Daxia couldn't resist his grandson's teasing, so he loved his grandson and brought him to see him personally.

By the way, he also wanted to see if Nanguan was as skilled in swordsmanship as rumored.

With this idea in mind, Xiang Daxia arrived near Pingcheng today after walking for more than a month.

But now, while walking on the road.

Xiang Daxia saw six masters riding horses in front of him.

Everyone is filled with anger and energy, jolting along with the horse, but their bodies remain motionless.

One of them, a gray old man, I knew Xiang Daxia.

Because before retiring, the old man challenged him to compete with him many times, and after losing in a row, he developed some moderate resentment.

Seeing this, Xiang Daxia asked his grandson to dismount and run to the distant forest to hide.

In order to avoid a conflict of words later, the old man would ignore his retirement and take action against him, thereby hurting his grandson.

Also waiting for my grandson to run into the forest.

He rode fearlessly to greet the hero.

When the old man saw the little baby running away, he snorted coldly and led five disciples to meet the approaching hero.

But it was also when Xiang Daxia and the old man seemed to be reminiscing about the past, but in fact their words were wrong, so they had to take action and compete again.

While the child was waiting boredly in the forest, he saw a floating butterfly flying by and reached out to catch it.

I didn't catch it this time. The butterfly seemed to be frightened and flew away again.

When the child saw it, he was curious and dissatisfied. He also chased into the distance, forgetting what his grandfather asked him to wait for.

Because in his memory.

Every time he gets lost in Xuncheng, as long as he meets someone and tells his grandfather's name, they will take him back home.

This gave him the illusion that everyone knew his grandfather.

Even if he goes far away, he will definitely be able to find him.

Although his grandfather also warned him not to run around this time, after all, it is more than two thousand miles away from Xuncheng.

One is in the southwest and the other is in the southeast.

But he is too young and has no concept of distance.

Just like that, he chased him far away and ran into the mountain forest.

Gradually, several wild wolves followed closely behind the child.

Their follow-up also disrupted the footprints in the thick leaves on the ground.

Followed by another dull tiger roar, the wild wolves fled in all directions, making it impossible to follow the footprints on the ground.

The tiger continues to follow the child chasing the butterfly.

But suddenly a cyan figure appeared in front of it.

The figure is the mountain god here and also the priest of the human race.

After he appeared, he waved his hand towards the tiger, but did not kill it, but gently drove it aside.

Because this tiger is not spiritually enlightened, it is just instinctive and has no malicious intent.

After the mountain god finished all this, he looked at the people who were about to fight outside the forest, and then looked at the baby in the distance, shook his head, and attracted a stream of floral fragrance to attract the butterfly, causing the butterfly to fly towards the other side of the forest.

After doing this, the mountain god escaped into the ground and disappeared without a trace.

And as time goes by.

Agent Wang, who was sleeping, suddenly heard faint footsteps approaching.

He was confused for a while and then woke up.

At this glance, not far away, there was a little kid touching his nose with tears on his face. Looking at him, he was dressed in common clothes, and he looked like a child from a nearby village or county.

Detective Wang looked at him quickly, then subconsciously covered his eyes with his hands and looked at the sky. The sun was tilted to the west and it was already afternoon.

I slept for three hours.

But I am also full of energy, and most of my discomfort has gone away.

But thanks to the little kid waking me up, otherwise I might have slept until dark after such a comfortable sleep.

"Where are your adults?" Detective Wang quickly sat up and looked at the little kid walking in the distance.

The child shook his head, his words choked with sobs, and his eyes were filled with the fear of not being able to find his family, "I... can't find my grandpa... ugh..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..." When Detective Wang saw that the baby was about to cry again, he stood up in a hurry to comfort him.

Wait until the child feels calmer.

Agent Wang quickly asked patiently: "What is your grandfather's name? Where is your home?"

The child sniffed, "I...my grandfather's name is Xiang Ling, and I am in Xuncheng...I remember that I am not far from my grandfather...but I can't find him..."

"Xuncheng?" Detective Wang looked to the southeast in surprise. This place is more than two thousand miles away from Xuncheng. How come it's not far away?

There are only two possibilities.

Either this kid is lying.

Either this kid's grandfather lost it on the road when he brought him to Pingcheng.

And after searching, his grandfather may have been looking in the wrong direction.

Detective Wang thought to himself, and first looked around.

After seeing no one there, I didn’t plan to look for him because it was easy to run in the wrong direction and make the distance farther and farther.

So, he thought about it and decided to give the doll to the Pingcheng government office first and let the government office post a notice.

If the old man is found, everyone will be happy.

If you can't find it, just see which kind-hearted family will adopt it.

With this in mind, Detective Wang quickly picked up the baby, mounted his horse, and continued towards Pingcheng.

And it’s also in the forest twelve miles away.
To be continued...
