"Miss...you...how did you know it's human..." Yuanyuan asked curiously.

"Have you seen ghosts?"

The maids shook their heads in horror, "No!"

"Then have you ever seen a ghost who can eat?"

The maids looked at each other for a moment and shook their heads again.

"That's right. Those who know how to eat must be a living creature. There is another footprint here. What can it be if you are not a human?"

Yuzhu finally believed that there were no ghosts and covered her chest and whispered, "What the lady said is that the offerings to pay tribute to ancestors during festivals are not moving, but it is obvious that ghosts really don't eat!"

"Sacrifice?" Xu Shu seemed to suddenly remember something and quickly ordered, "Wangfeng, take two people to Fuliu's cemetery quickly. If you meet someone, bring them here directly!"

Wanfeng quickly agreed, and Yuzhu said in confusion, "Miss, you are..."

"Is there anything else to throw away?" Xu Shu asked.

Yuzhu shook her head quickly, "No more! I first put out lotus crisps, but later I found that there were fewer ones, so I didn't dare to put them out, and they were still in the food box!"

Xu Shu knocked on the table and said slowly, "How can you eat a lotus crispy lotus? This farm has not been living for a long time, and there is no food. It is difficult for you to start here, so you naturally have to go to other places to find food! I guess this person has been hiding in the dark and knowing that we are here to pay tribute to the willows, so we will definitely have the idea of ​​offering sacrifices!"

Yuzhu couldn't stop being scared when she thought about what she was busy in the room just now, but someone was secretly staring at her every move, saying and doing, and fortunately the man just wanted to eat and had no other plans, otherwise she would have been...

"Don't be afraid!" Xu Shu comforted, "Look for a few strong servants to follow you and search the village to see if you can find any other clues! The village is empty and uninhabited. Since he can come here to steal things, it means that his place of residence is not far away, and he might have been hiding somewhere in the village!"

Yuzhu nodded and ordered a few servants to search the village. Yuanyuan wiped a chair and helped Xu Shu sit down. Then she opened the tight food box that Yuzhu had just protected, put out the snacks, and set up the dishes and chopsticks, "Miss, have something to eat!"

Xu Shu waved her hand, "I'm not hungry, if you are hungry, just eat by yourself!"

Yuanyuan smiled shyly, "I am not hungry!"

Xu Shu smiled and said, "Your stomach is screaming, don't be stubborn, eat quickly, we can't go back in a while!"

Yuanyuan then took a small plate and took a few snacks to eat. As she was eating, she suddenly heard a noise outside the door. She hurried to the window and looked out. She saw two servants coming over with a dirty half-baby. The boy was tied with his hands and lowered his head. Although he couldn't see clearly, he only looked at his expression but felt that he was very honest!

Wanfeng pressed the boy outside the door and knelt in before entering and responding, "Miss is really aware of things. On the way I passed by, I happened to meet Yue Man Yueying and the others back. I quietly folded it from behind. Sure enough, I saw this boy put the sacrifice in his arms, and all the good things were ruined!"

Those things were carefully prepared for Fuliu by Taxue. Wanfeng could not bear it when he saw this. He rushed up and pushed the boy down. When the villain pushed him down, he still held the sacrifice in his arms tightly and refused to let go. When Wanfeng snatched the things from him, he had already ruined it. Wanfeng was so angry that he asked someone to tie the boy up on the spot.

But the boy yelled in a low voice, "It was obviously you who ruined it!"

Wan Feng didn't hear it, but Xu Shu heard it. He heard it. He was about a boy in his early teens, and his tone was full of regret. It seemed like a pity that the wasted offerings were asked, "Are you a child from a nearby villager?"

When the boy saw someone asking, his voice was still very gentle, he immediately replied, "Yes, my family lives nearby. I was greedy for a while and caused a disaster. I knew I was wrong. I asked my wife to spare me this time!"

Through the curtain, I couldn't see Xu Shu's appearance clearly. I thought that it was the master of this village and which wife should be. This kid called Xu Shu that way.

Xu Shu laughed secretly when she heard this. This kid was very clever and took less things from someone to watch. Could it be that he still wanted to be a long-term investment? He was arrested and admitted his mistake decisively without any quibbling. Generally speaking, if he encounters such a honest child, he will most likely not pursue his mistake.

It’s a pity that Xu Shu set a trap for him as soon as she spoke, and the kid jumped in without thinking. At this moment, he was afraid that he was still in his heart that he had deceived Xu Shu!

"You really live nearby?" Wan Feng looked at the boy outside the gauze curtain strangely.

"Really!" the boy nodded sincerely.

Wan Fengge suddenly said coldly, "There is no more people in this area a few miles away. Tell me where you live? Could it be that you live under the ground?"

The boy was stunned, as if he couldn't believe that the gentle lady was lying to him, and anger gradually emerged in his eyes.

Xu Shu said again, "You steal first and lie behind, which shows that you have no regrets at all. If you don't tell the truth, I will send you to the official!"

"I didn't steal!" the boy muttered.

"If you don't ask, you're stealing!"

"I didn't steal!" The boy's voice became louder, "I...I'll give you money!"

Wan Feng ridicule, "Give money? Do you have money?"

"I..." The boy was poor, "I don't have money, can I use things to pay off debts?"

"What can you have?" Wan Feng looked up and down the boy. It was not too much to see it. He could tell at first glance that he was dirty all over, but after a closer look, he found that his clothes were made of Hujin. There were traces of needle holes on his bare belt, which should have been decorated with gems on his head.

Wan Feng was shocked by his discovery. If this is the case, the boy in front of him would be of some background, but why did he refuse to reveal his identity? Should he tell the lady?

Wanfeng was hesitating, and the boy said to the servant who was guarding him, "Please take out the jade ring in my arms!"

Yiyan took out a two-color jade ring from his arms, which was as big as a child's fist, and the jade was gentle and tender. It looked like it was not an ordinary person. The servant did not dare to neglect it and immediately presented it.

Wan Feng handed the jade ring to Xu Shu and whispered to Xu Shu with what she had just discovered, "I look at him wearing Hujin, not like an ordinary child!"
