Yizhuang is in the south of the city, the tomb is in the north of the city, and it is not in the city of Changyi, there is a considerable distance in between.

Lu Jiu did not rush over immediately, but chose to stay in the city for a while.

There are not many restaurants that remain open on the day of the festival, and they are not suitable for public appearances, so he chose a roadside stall.

"Boss, let's have a fried mein, add two eggs, don't put coriander and shredded carrots. ”

He shouted to the busy boss at the back of the stall, found a position with his back to him, took down the hat, and after receiving a reply, he flipped the bowl on the table upside down, put in a juice ice cube, and waited for it to melt while looking at the rain curtain outside the stall.

It's not that I don't want to go to the grave in the north of the city immediately, but the effect of the anesthetic and ecstasy pollen in the body has not completely dissipated, and the exhaustion caused by the violent state is especially remnant.

The previous ambush in Yizhuang made Lu Jiu realize that his vigilance was still not high enough.

Although this was partly due to coincidence, and the result was good, it did not prevent him from reflecting on his actions.

Xu was too eager to understand the situation of his predecessor, and his observation of the surrounding environment was put in second place, which was the case in Yizhuang before, so Lu Jiu was also trying to use the current situation to adjust his state.

"Guest officer, here comes the fried rice~ Do you want to add some vegetables, I have salted duck eggs and some sour radishes here." ”

"Let's have a salted duck egg. ”

Looking at the steaming bowl of fried rice in front of him, Lu Jiu hung his head to make sure that his face would not be completely seen by the stall owner, but the latter obviously didn't have the heart to observe him as a guest, after all, there were still some diners waiting next to him.

Pry out the yolk of the salted duck egg separately and put it in the fried rice to crush, and put the remaining egg whites aside, Lu Jiu took a sip of chilled juice, and as soon as he scooped up a spoonful of fried rice, his ears keenly caught the sound of hurried footsteps nearby and approached, which was mixed with the sound of collision between utensils.

Are you being targeted again?

From Yizhuang to here, he should have been very careful along the way, stuffing the fried rice into his mouth, Lu Jiu reached for the backpack that was placed aside.

The sack in Yizhuang, Lu Jiu only took coins and put some valuable small items into his backpack, as for those weapons and equipment, they were all thrown in place because they were inconvenient to carry.

Unexpectedly, the window on the second floor of the building in front of him suddenly opened, and then several figures fell one after another, rushing towards the other side of the street, and at the same time, a whole team of heavily armed officials rushed out from the other side of the bamboo shed, dressed in regular clothes, and chased away.

It didn't take long for the two groups of people to gather together and a battle broke out, and Lu Jiu, who realized this, resumed eating, and enjoyed a live broadcast of the "martial arts scene" by the way.

Judging by the clothes and weapons and equipment of those people, they should be the same as the people in Yizhuang before, and since they dare to come to find the heart-ripping ghost, they naturally have something to rely on, Lu Jiu soon found that there should be two demon veins in this team, and their performance after entering the melee battle can be called fierce.

It's a pity that with the other two teams of the Jingye Division breaking into the battlefield, the situation was quickly stabilized, and regardless of the strength of the Jingye Division in Qingding City, Jing Anwei in this Changyi City does have some ability.

Swallowing the last sip of cold juice, Lu Jiu looked at the official errand in front of him who was already cleaning up the mess, and couldn't help but have some thoughts in his heart.

Whether it's the people in Yizhuang, these people are the people you see now.

With so many bandits still gathering in the county seat of Changyi and not retreating, does this mean that the heart-slashing ghost still remains in the city of Changyi or has left some clues?

......

The tomb in the north of Changyi City is located on a deserted hillside, which is also a cemetery of Changyi City to some extent.

With the exception of a small number of people who are eligible to choose a cemetery on their own, most people will be buried here when they die.

Because of this, the Changyi City Government has made many repairs to this place, although it is not a wide road, but at least a staircase is specially paved with stone slabs on one side of the hillside, which also saves Lu Jiu the time to ask about the road.

Walking up the stairs, Lu Jiu's eyes looked at the bungalow on the top of the mountain, which should be where the tomb keeper lived.

In view of the special nature of the profession of grave keeper, it may be difficult to say that it is often held by some lonely old people...... The Zhengyang Festival of family reunion should have little to do with them.

And the fact that he could see the cooking smoke rising from the roof chimney after pulling in also proved that Lu Jiu was right.

Halfway up the mountain, Lu Jiu could already see the large graves and tombstones standing behind the house, because the vegetation on the entire hillside had been cleared, only a part of the sparse shrubs remained, and the first impression of this scene in front of him was desolate and gloomy.

There was a lesson in Yizhuang, this time Lu Jiu did not rush forward to knock on the door again, but stood outside the fence and shouted a few times.

"I'm afraid there is something wrong with this baby's brain...... Hey, are you alright, come to the grave in this weather?"

The old man with the rice bowl in his hand had no intention of going out at all, and stood at the door and responded.

The first half of the sentence was a low muttering heard by Lu Jiu, the meaning was not very friendly, but it was enough to prove that there was nothing wrong with this old man.

"Uncle, I'm a visitor, and I want to consult you about some things, of course, for a fee. ”

From his pocket, he took out the interviewer's documents prepared in advance and a silver dollar, and not surprisingly, Lu Jiu became the old man's guest from a baby who was identified as having a brain problem.

"Would you like a bowl?"

The layout in this bungalow is even more shabby than the two dilapidated houses that Lu Jiu has seen before, but all kinds of things are neatly arranged, the old man handed Lu Jiu a bowl that had just sat down on the side of the charcoal stove where things were cooking.

Lu Jiu was about to refuse, but when he saw the pickled vegetables and vermicelli boiling in the pot, he swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva.

It's one of his favorite vegetarian dishes, and it tastes better than the big fish and meat.

"I'm here to ask if anything strange happened in the cemetery some time ago, especially after the sixteenth. ”

Lu Jiu scooped up a bowl of tofu, paused, and felt that what he seemed to say was a little too subtle, so he spoke again,

"Actually, I'm here for the murder case that happened at No. 18 Qichunfang, there are tomb robbers in those two houses, and I happen to know that they may ......"

"Damn, it's good to die, these guys who dig up graves and dig up corpses deserve to be ruined!"

Before he finished speaking, the old man's temperament was strong, and he slapped the table and said, seeing Lu Jiu's face full of surprise, his expression was stagnant, and he glanced at the silver dollar next to him before he continued,

"There have been a lot of things these days, and you can tell why I hate those bastards, but you have to promise me that you must never tell anyone about them. ”
