Bai Xiaoshu and Jasmine walked into the grocery store, and a pungent smell of herbs rushed to his nose, he frowned, and then saw a young man in tattered clothes lying on the counter. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Bai Xiaoshu walked quickly in front of the young man, and the young man's eyes lit up when he saw Bai Xiaoshu, "What do you want to buy, don't look at the small shop in tatters, but we have a complete range of products and a fair price." ”
Bai Xiaoshu smiled mysteriously, "I buy Qingling Grass." ”
When the young man heard the name "Qingling Grass", his face suddenly changed, "Our store has 10 years, 20 years, and 100 years, and the guest officer wants that?"
Bai Xiaoshu is very calm: "10 years." ”
The young man continued, "The 10-year ones are divided into red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple, may I ask the guest officer for that color?"
Bai Xiaoshu pursed his lips and complained in his heart, "The secret code of the academy is really troublesome, why don't you use the river demon in Pagoda Town or something." Then he replied, "Yellow is the root, green is the leaf, and purple is the flower." ”
The young man lowered his head and made a gesture of invitation, "Guest officer, please." ”
Immediately, Bai Xiaoshu and Jasmine followed the young man to a grocery cabinet, and the young man cautiously looked around, saw that there was no one, and then turned a purple clay pot on the grocery cabinet.
Only a gurgling sound was heard, and a large hole appeared in the ground that could accommodate two people to go down.
At this time, a gust of cold wind blew out of the big cave, which was eerie and terrifying.
A glimmer of fire suddenly appeared in the young man's hand, and he walked straight down, and a voice came from afar, "Follow me." ”
Bai Xiaoshu Jasmine glanced at each other, hurriedly followed the footsteps of the young man, and walked down the steps for two steps, when he heard another gurgling sound behind him, and the entire steps instantly darkened, leaving only the fire in the hands of the young man in the distance.
The crystals of the Thousand Cherry Blossom Falling Technique appeared in Bai Xiaoshu's hand, and with something to illuminate, he and Jasmine soon caught up with the young man.
After a while, they came to a huge hall full of paper materials and filled with all the cabinets.
Bai Xiaoshu curiously picked up a book and flipped through it, it turned out to be some chronological notes, such as what appeared in such and such a year, and what happened in such and such a year.
The young man's voice came, "My name is Hengfeng, and I am the contact person here. I advise you to put down those antiques, they can't withstand the destruction, and I haven't dared to touch them here. ”
Bai Xiaoshu asked curiously, "If you haven't moved, how can you be so clean." ”
Hengfeng shrugged, "There is dust magic on the shelves, and I usually use magic to clean it up myself. Now tell me what you're doing here. ”
Bai Xiaoshu patted Jasmine's hand, "Wait for me here, I'll come when I go." Then he walked in front of Hengfeng alone.
Kaikou said, "I'm here to investigate something. ”
Heng Feng showed an expression that was really like this: "It's the case of the branch of the eldest grandson's family." ”
Bai Xiaoshu was surprised that Hengfeng actually knew about this, "How do you know?"
Hengfeng pointed to the clean round table next to him, "You're not the first. ”
Bai Xiaoshu was not pretentious, and sat directly on the chair next to the round table, "Oh? ”
Heng Feng recalled, "There have been several waves of people from the academy before, all of them are investigating this matter, and you know, if there are more people investigating, I will also learn something." ”
Bai Xiaoshu asked curiously, "What is the result?"
Hengfeng spread his palms, "If there is a result, you will not come." ”
Bai Xiaoshu chuckled and said, "Hehe...... And so it was. ”
Hengfeng Nunu mouthed: "How are you?"
Bai Xiaoshu thought for a long time, "It should be okay." ”
Heng Feng stood up, took out a thick book of materials on the bookshelf next to him, and handed it to Bai Xiaoshu, "This is the information you want, remember to return it to me when you run out." ”
Bai Xiaoshu took it easily, opened it and glanced at it, and then put it in the space ring, "Thank you." ”
Hengfeng leaned back in his chair, "I hope you can investigate something, after all, my term of office is coming to an end, and I also hope for a perfect ending." ”
Bai Xiaoshu took out a pot of white wine, "Do you want to drink two glasses?"
Hengfeng chuckled: "Those who do our business don't drink." ”
Bai Xiaoshu was a little speechless: "That's not life, it's a lot less fun." ”
Hengfeng raised his head, picked up the wine jug, looked at it carefully, and then opened the wine jug and took a sip hard, "It's so fragrant, although I don't drink, it's not bad to keep a souvenir." ”
Bai Xiaoshu raised his eyebrows: "Your hobby is not good. ”
Hengfeng sighed, "Hey, remember to return it to me after reading the information." ”
Bai Xiaoshu frowned, "Why do you keep emphasizing this sentence." ”
Heng Feng was silent when he heard Bai Xiaoshu's words, and after a long time, he wanted to speak again and again, and finally gritted his teeth and said, "There were 7 waves of people before. ”
Bai Xiaoshu immediately pricked up his ears, "What about the result?"
Heng Feng seemed to remember something terrifying, "Three disappeared when they walked out of my shop, and one found a corpse that had been bitten by a wild beast. ”
Bai Xiaoshu didn't seem to care, "Aren't there three more?"
Hengfeng looked at Bai Xiaoshu, "Those three fools didn't find out anything, so they walked away." ”
Bai Xiaoshu was stunned: "You want me to be the same as those three fools?"
Hengfeng lowered his head, as if he was struggling a little, "You are a good person, I don't want you to die." ”
Bai Xiaoshu looked at Hengfeng, "Thank you, maybe I'm different from them?"
Heng Feng leaned back in his chair and looked at the ceiling, "Among them, there is a master of the 9th floor of the C rank, that is, he died the worst, and his body was fed to wild dogs." ”
When Bai Xiaoshu heard this, his eyes became very firm, "That's why we have to find out the murderer, otherwise more people will die." ”
Heng Feng turned his head and didn't dare to look at Bai Xiaoshu, "I also know, but this time the matter is different from the others, I feel that there is a big organization operating behind it." ”
Bai Xiaoshu's eyes were sharp, "No matter how deep they are, I will pull them out." ”
Hengfeng opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, Bai Xiaoshu also got up when he saw something, walked out, and heard a voice from afar, "I'm leaving, you take care." ”
Hengfeng looked at Bai Xiaoshu, who was gradually moving away, and stood up, "Remember, return the information to me." ”
Bai Xiaoshu paused at his feet, and a trace of emotion welled up in his heart, "Don't worry, I will return it to you with both hands." Then he didn't stop, and as soon as he pulled Jasmine, he walked out.
Bai Xiaoshu had been walking for a long time, and Heng Feng leaned back in his chair again, staring blankly at the ceiling, "I hope things can be completed, and when I have money, I should go home and marry a daughter-in-law and live an ordinary life." Then he closed his eyes, as if immersed in his own fantasies.
Bai Xiaoshu and Jasmine walked out of the grocery store, and Jasmine asked curiously, "Master, what did you say just now?"
Bai Xiaoshu glanced at Jasmine, "Men's topic." ”
Jasmine's face turned red and pinched Bai Xiaoshu fiercely, "Men are all the same." ”
Bai Xiaoshu laughed and Jasmine gradually disappeared at the end of the street.
