28. Ugly people make a lot of mistakes
Mid-Levels House.
"That's ridiculous. Zhuge Xiaoshan couldn't help but say, "If what is said on the wanted notice is true, no matter how blind the county lord is, he will not take a fancy to such an obscene thief......"
Speaking of this, he smiled embarrassedly at Yan Chaoyang, "Senior brother, I mean if." ”
Yan Chaoyang said: "Go on." ”
Zhuge Xiaoshan then continued: "Now that the Dragon Emperor's Mansion has posted notices, with the authority of the government, the uninformed people have lost their ability to discern, it is impossible to think that Yan Li is an adulterous thief on the one hand, and on the other hand send out ambiguous rumors with the county lord, this is not logical, and it is very suspicious, as if someone deliberately spread it." ”
Speaking of this, he turned to Shopkeeper Wen and said, "Where did you get this news from?"
Shopkeeper Wen said: "I don't know the little one, I heard from the people gathered outside the Dragon Emperor's Mansion, and they are all discussing this matter." ”
Zhuge Xiaoshan said: "Okay, shopkeeper, you continue to inquire about the ins and outs of this matter, and inquire again, where did this rumor come from, I have you to lose." ”
Shopkeeper Wen smiled: "Hey, what trouble is it to talk to the little one, I just remember a person, he is very well-informed, and he knows something, maybe he can't say anything, I will go and ask him for advice." ”
Let's go.
Zhuge Xiaoshan walked over and closed the door, and said, "Senior brother, is there anything else we can do?"
Yan Chaoyang said: "Wait and see." ”
......
But he said that the person who the shopkeeper remembered was none other than Haiyuan's father.
He picked up a jar of high-quality flower carvings from his wine cellar, bought a roast chicken slice, and walked to Haiyuan's father's shop with it.
When I came to Haiyuan's father's shop, I heard Haiyuan's father talking: "Just continue, don't stop, don't stop, pay is not a problem......"
There was a person standing opposite him, who looked like a street ruffian, and said in a hurry: "This time the fee has been settled first, you can rest assured that we will do things." ”
Father Haiyuan suddenly noticed the shopkeeper Wen at the door of the store, and hurriedly glanced at the ruffian: "I'll go to you later, you go first." ”
The ruffian also saw Shopkeeper Wen and left without saying a word.
Haiyuan's father walked out of the counter at this time, greeted the shopkeeper Wen, and laughed: "I smell the aroma of wine in the middle of the mountain from afar, Lao Wen, Lao Wen, it's rare for you to take wine to honor me, so I'm welcome." As he spoke, he went to get the wine.
"Don't worry. The shopkeeper dodged away, and the person had already entered the store, found a chair and sat down, "Tell me first, what's going on with that person?"
"What kind of person?" Haiyuan's father was stunned.
Shopkeeper Wen sneered and said, "Don't think I don't know, the tattoo on that person's arm is clearly from the Longhe Gang." This Longhe gang has done a lot of abduction, when did you hook up with them?"
Haiyuan's father snorted and said, "What's wrong with Shopkeeper Wen today, has he become a moral saint?"
Shopkeeper Wen said: "I just think you are suspicious!"
"Oh?" Haiyuan's father pulled a chair and sat down, "What is suspicious, I didn't steal or rob, and I did business in a proper manner." Besides, can you control me? Tell me, what the hell are you doing today?"
Shopkeeper Wen put the wine and roast chicken on the table and said, "I'll inquire about a piece of news." ”
"What's the news?" said Haiyuan's father.
"I want to know, where did this lewd thief Yan Li come from, and how did he offend the county lord and get wanted. Shopkeeper Wen said.
Haiyuan's father said: "You should ask the county lord, my old man has no relatives and no reason, and there is not even a guy in the store, where can I find out the news." ”
Shopkeeper Wen smiled and said, "You have a weak heart." ”
"Joke!" Daddy Haiyuan glared at him, "You're not here to find fault, are you?"
Shopkeeper Wen said: "You must know something, hurry up and tell me who this Yan Li is." ”
"I said I don't know!" Haiyuan's father said impatiently, "What do you want to inquire, go to the headhunters, I'm just a fireworks seller, I can't help you!"
Shopkeeper Wen sneered: "You are not just a seller of fireworks, you are still the remnant of the Tiangong Furnace, if I poke out the news, you know the consequences very well." ”
Haiyuan's father's face changed greatly: "The surname is Wen, there is no one like you, what do you want to do in the middle of the mountain?"
"Tell me, who Yan Li is. The shopkeeper repeated.
Father Haiyuan glared at him angrily, and after a while, he was finally defeated, and said dejectedly: "I'll tell you what I know, but you have to promise me that you will never mention those three words again in the future!"
"Let's see if your answer satisfies me. Shopkeeper Wen said.
Haiyuan's father said indignantly: "You guy, what do you care about a wanted criminal for no reason, is he your long-lost son or son-in-law!"
"Ahh
Haiyuan's father had no choice but to say: "I first knew this person, it was from a headhunter, I entrusted them with a task, and I met that person in the process, seeing that he looked good, someone in the hunting group proposed to recommend him to the county lord as a staff member, but that person refused on the spot, and he was insulting and embarrassed them." ”
Shopkeeper Wen said: "How did his disrespect for the county lord get to the county lord?"
Father Haiyuan shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's nothing more than those few who hold a grudge and run to tell the truth." That's all I know, don't ask me, I don't know anything. ”
"Okay, okay!" Shopkeeper Wen got important information, so he got up and was about to rush back to report, when he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, do you know what that rumor is going on?"
Haiyuan's father's eyelids jumped: "What rumors?"
"What do you say, that lewd thief is the county lord. Shopkeeper Wen said.
Haiyuan's father said quietly: "How would I know, it's useless for you to ask me." ”
"Well, I'm leaving, but I have to tell you, don't hang out with the Dragonriver Gang, and be careful that they swallow up all the bones. Shopkeeper Wen waved his hand.
"Wait!" Daddy Haiyuan suddenly called out to Shopkeeper Wen again.
Shopkeeper Wen turned around suspiciously: "What?"
Father Haiyuan smiled and said, "I got a piece of news, it is said that the county lord sent Juying Mansion to join forces with the Eagle Pavilion to prepare to join forces to deal with that lewd thief. ”
After speaking, carefully observe the reaction of the shopkeeper Wen.
Shopkeeper Wen's face changed slightly: "I know, farewell!"
......
Temple.
Behind the golden statue of the great lord of the city god, hidden behind the big yellow banner, Yan Li was slowly retracting, and the movement around him gradually became weak, so that there was none. He opened his eyes and let out a soft breath of turbidity.
In this world, the current stage of cultivation is simply a kind of enjoyment, and the feeling of feeling that cultivation is getting higher and higher is really indescribably wonderful.
According to the current progress, in three more days, the seventh Yuan Force Tide can be completed, the eighth can be completed in ten days, and the ninth in twenty days, that is to say, as long as it takes another month of effort, you can break through the first rank of martial arts, and then there will be a qualitative leap in strength, and the curse can also be alleviated.
Yan Li was in a good mood, suddenly felt a little hungry, and was about to find something to eat, when there was a sound of footsteps outside. Gently opened the banner and took a look, only to see a woman in her twenties carrying a basket to the incense table, took out a melon and fruit incense candle and put it up, among which there was a roast chicken, roasted to the outside is charred and tender inside, and the meat is fragrant.
He drooled and was about to think of a way to steal it and eat it, when he heard the woman say:
"Lord Chenghuang, the little girl is still the eldest daughter of the yellow flower, you must bless me, don't let that lewd thief Yan Li see me, otherwise...... Boom ......"
Yan Li almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.
But seeing this woman, her skin was dark and dark, her hair was as thick as a steel needle, and her taste in dressing was terrible, she still had to make a gesture that was suitable for smiling.
"Besides, please give me a wishful husband, people are really ...... ......"Shy and shy."
Yan Li almost vomited, his eyes rolled, he thought about it, and sneered: It's really ugly!
Then he shouted deeply: "Ah, who is the monster, dare to break into the mansion of this god, and look at the sword of this god!"
Pulled out of the cliff silently and slashed gently.
A sword qi shot out, and with a "bang", the incense candle placed by the woman was blown to pieces.
The woman was so frightened that her face turned pale, and she retreated again and again: "I, I, I'm not a monster......"
"Phew, where are the monsters escaping!"
"Ahh
Yan Li saw that there was no one left and right, so he came out from behind the altar, put on his hat and robe, grabbed the roast chicken and stuffed it into his mouth, grabbed a pear casually, and then Shi Shiran walked out of the City God Temple.
Looking at the sun, it was about the end of the day, and he was thinking about his next move as he walked.
The Eagle Pavilion must be removed, and the province will get in the way.
But it's still early, it's not a good time to kill, so let's take a stroll around this Huajiang City first and see if there's anything new.
Just as he was thinking, a beggar with a cloak came over.
The beggar's clothes were so dirty that they could no longer be seen in their original form, and they were in tatters. The bare feet can be seen to be well maintained, and if they are cleaned, they will also be a pair of three-inch golden lotus, but they are already dirty at the moment.
It can be seen that this is a female beggar.
Most of her face was obscured by dirty hair, and the only eyes that showed were not shining, like a walking corpse.
She walked upside down, staggering, as if muttering: Cui'er, Cui'er...... Why did my sister lose you again, where are you?Cui'er, come out quickly...... Don't play hide and seek with your sister, okay......
Yan was shocked and couldn't help but stop.
When the female beggar saw the roast chicken in Yan Li's hand, her eyes shone faintly, and she rushed up in three steps and two steps, snatched the roast chicken and fled.
Yan Li couldn't help but shout, "Wait!"
How could the female beggar stop, running and gobbling up the roast chicken.
"It's me!" Yan took two quick steps, rushed up and pressed her shoulder, and lifted the hat.
The female beggar saw his face, her hand shook, and the roast chicken fell to the ground, she trembled and raised her hand, tried to cover her face, and spat out a wail from the depths of her throat: "Don't ...... Don't look at me...... Don't ......"
She violently broke free from Yan Li, covered her face and fled.
Yan Li looked at her back in a daze, speechless for a long time.
