Chapter 158 is still before the crisis

Chengxing saw that the aunt seemed to have something unspeakable, but when he thought of the other party's performance just now, although he was a little angry in his heart, this aunt was at least sympathetic and did not make a move against a beggar. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

He was going to ask the reason from the aunt, but unfortunately the aunt just shook her head and sighed, and didn't intend to tell him the reason, so she had no choice but to ask: "I want to ask, who can come to this town and be fine?"

The aunt was also a little impatient this time, and said: "Let's tell you directly, we are not welcome to anyone, you should leave quickly, I will only say it once, listen to you or not, don't disturb me to sell vegetables." ”

After changing back into his original clothes, Chengxing appeared on the edge of the woods outside the town, and when he returned from pretending to be a beggar, he got some useful information, but it still didn't help the whole thing.

What is it that makes this town so unwelcoming to outsiders? Is it because of hatred? Or is it because it thinks it is high? I can't think of the answer, and I will only know the answer if I find out for myself.

However, one of the problems at hand is that the town itself rejects outsiders, how to go in to find the answer, if you only ask someone to ask, it will cause unnecessary suspicion, and then it will attract unnecessary trouble, and it will outweigh the loss.

If you wait for the people in the town to come out, and then look for an opportunity to ask, how about it? But soon, Chengxing dispelled this idea, because he found that the people in this town basically lived a life of isolation, and neither welcomed people nor took the initiative to go out and walk around.

This is the biggest obstacle in front of us, and one of the situations that a person who uses his brain is most afraid of is the lack of information and intelligence.

Information, intelligence can be seen as the ears and eyes of those who use their brains, and if you can't get any useful intelligence and information at this time, it's like being blind.

How do you find out?

Chengxing thought about it again, at this time he couldn't help but be a little lucky, fortunately there was no time limit, but he wouldn't be too happy, because he was still in the Tower of Trials, and if it was too long, it would also affect the next layer.

But how to solve the problem in front of him? Chengxing couldn't help but feel a little headache, and soon he stopped thinking, because he knew that he would never find the answer just by thinking like this.

Next, he came to the edge of the town by the stars, hiding as much as possible in a place where he could observe people, the lack of information and intelligence made it impossible for him to take the first step, he decided to observe and observe first, maybe he could find some opportunities.

After observing for a morning, Chengxing shook his head helplessly, the life of the people in the town is very regular, and when everyone is face to face with everyone, there is no look in the eyes that they looked at at them at the beginning, and it can be seen that the relationship between them is indeed very good.

But this is not a reason to exclude outsiders, and there must be some hidden suspicion in it.

Chengxing didn't intend to give up, and observed for nearly two hours, and the time had come to the afternoon, and at this time, he finally made him wait for a glimmer of light.

From his point of view, he could see the scene of half the street, and there happened to be a restaurant on this street, when a carriage suddenly appeared in front of the restaurant, and the decoration of the carriage was very gorgeous, and it seemed that the owner of the carriage was either rich or noble.

Soon, a thin man lay on the side of the carriage, and then a short fat man lifted the curtain, stepped on the back of the man, and came down easily and effortlessly.

Humpty Dumpty took out a piece of silver from his bosom and threw it to the coachman, and was surrounded by three or five people into the restaurant. The coachman happily gritted his teeth and bit the silver in his hand, and then came to the tea stall outside the restaurant to drink tea with a happy face.

An hour later, the fat man seemed to have had enough to eat, and again stepped on the back of his servant and got into the carriage, and soon the coachman drove the carriage, but the direction of the carriage was along the street outward.

Chengxing was sure that this was an opportunity, and the carriage quickly passed by him, and when he saw the opportunity, he grabbed the tail of the carriage, although it was a little difficult to grasp it, and he almost fell off halfway, but this time it was indeed a great opportunity.

The carriage seemed to be on its way to a neighboring town, and rested for an hour on the edge of a wood, and while one of the men was on his way to the chase, Chengxing crept up behind the man, knocked him unconscious with a stone, and quickly stripped off the other's clothes and put them on himself, according to his plan, the carriage should be back soon.

There are two reasons, first of all, Chengxing noticed that when Humpty Dumpty walked out of the restaurant, there was an extra brocade box in his hand, and it was expected that it should be valuables, Humpty Dumpty should have gone to the restaurant to see someone, and this brocade box was taken from that person's hand.

Secondly, the reason why it is judged that the carriage will come back soon is because Chengxing knows, not to mention that outsiders are not welcome in this town, this Humpty Dumpty must be from the town, and he is surprisingly going out of the town, there must be some reason why he has to go out, or to meet someone, of course, these are only superficial analysis, the most direct reason is that Chengxing noticed that Humpty Dumpty's expression was very anxious, and when he came out, he noticed Humpty Dumpty's mouth shape, and seemed to say a word to come back before dark.

It was with this detail that Chengxing decided to take advantage of this opportunity, and it turned out that he was right, and soon, Humpty Dumpty did go to the neighboring town, and he did go to see a person, but it was a catcher, and that catcher should be famous far and wide, and it took a certain price to ask him to make a move, and in the brocade box was a white jade Guanyin.

Before dark, Chengxing played the role of Humpty Dumpty's subordinate, and really returned to the town, and the catcher also followed him all the way, although I don't know what they talked about, but what needs to be caught quickly? Chengxing had a bad premonition in his heart.

Ma Fu seems to be the richest man and rich man in the town, and the short and fat man is the second son of Ma Fu, who has his own father and a big brother. The reason why Humpty Dumpty went to find this Xu Zhukuai this time was because there was a murder in the house.

It happened three days ago, a little girl in Mafu was found dead in the pond, with traces of being strangled on her neck.

And the reason why this incident makes Humpty Dumpty care so much is because there is another hidden reason in it.

These are all heard by Chengxing pretending to be a subordinate, but as for Humpty Dumpty's search for a quick catch, the reason has not yet been clarified.

But it wasn't like he didn't receive the goods, at least he finally figured out why the town was so repulsive to outsiders.

The reason is also inseparable from Mafu, it is said that the master of Mafu, that is, Humpty Dumpty's father, had a concubine a year ago, and she gave birth to a flower like jade, which was favored by the master.

But half a year ago, a painter came from other places, not only was he tall and thin, with red lips and white teeth, but he was also able to chant good poetry, and soon that person won the heart of the concubine.

Soon after, the two devised a scene in which the concubine pretended to go out to worship the gods, but in fact eloped with the painter.

After learning the news, the master of Ma Fu was furious, and invested a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to find the traces of the two, but it was a pity that there was a vast sea of people, and the two may have long been incognito.

For this reason, the lord of Mafu was deeply affected, and he got a serious illness, and after the initial recovery of the serious illness, he forbade any outsiders to come to the town, and also forbade anyone to go out of the town.

Chengxing was also very helpless when he learned about this reason, he originally thought it would be the reason, but he didn't expect it to be because of a woman.

From anyone's point of view, Master Mafu's approach in this matter is biased, and he can't let others suffer because of his personal preferences.

Immediately thought that only by asking Master Ma Fu to change this idea could he really solve this puzzle and complete this task.

But how can we make Master Ma Fu change his mind?

Chengxing thought about it, and finally decided to start with the murder that happened in Mafu, after all, his current identity is a subordinate of Mafu, and he still has the qualifications to operate in Mafu, and he must find enough information as soon as possible to use this identity.

Taking advantage of the identity of the subordinate, and the identity of Humpty Dumpty's right-hand man, Chengxing soon found out some more useful information.

However, he was not afraid that Humpty Dumpty and other subordinates would suspect his identity, because he lied that he had measles, so he put on a scarf to cover his face, and at the same time lied that he had a cold, and his voice was a little hoarse.

After a detailed hall, Chengxing learned that this maid was originally Humpty Dumpty's side, and later Humpty Dumpty gave her to his sister-in-law.

It is rumored in the house that this girl has an inexplicable relationship with Humpty Dumpty's eldest brother, and for this reason, Humpty Dumpty's eldest brother has a lot of faces.

In addition, the maid's body had already been cremated and buried, and it was impossible for Chengxing to find some clues through the corpse, but if he guessed correctly, the murderer was one of these people in the house.

In the past two days, that Xu Zhukuai has been secretly looking for something, Chengxing has quietly followed this person, but unfortunately he didn't find out what the other party was checking, the other party seemed to be just a guest of the Ma Mansion, just walking around.

Chengxing will not hear the conversation between Humpty Dumpty and Xu Zhukuai, but because of the death, there are more and more rumors about Humpty Dumpty's eldest brother among the people in the house.

That night, Chengxing walked around the Mafu alone, seemingly wandering, but in fact he wanted to get close to the inner house of the Mafu, the Mafu is divided into the inner house and the outer house, the outer house is generally lived by the people, and the family of the Mafu lives in the inner house, including the female dependents.

Because he felt that it was necessary to check Humpty Dumpty's eldest brother, or someone else. If this matter is resolved, maybe it will make Master Ma change his attention, but it may not be necessary.

Of course, the biggest reason is that this murder is very challenging.
