Chapter 378: Strange Town

Wang Dezhen's yamen is actually not far in front of this road, after arriving at the location, Lin Nan saw that there were two officers and soldiers guarding the gate at the door, and the copper-red gate was also tightly closed, at this time Lin Nan ordered the two walking corpses to follow to the Chen Mansion, and then strode forward with the other two walking corpses.

One of the two officers and soldiers saw Lin Nan leading the two of them to meet him violently, and hurriedly walked down and shouted to Lin Nan: "Who are you looking for?" Lin Nanke has lived in the palace for twelve years, and he knows everything about this kind of officialdom, these little soldiers usually have low salaries, so Lin Nan satisfied him, took out some broken silver from his arms, and pinched the money into his hand with a handshake, smiled and whispered: " This official brother, how many people heard that your mansion is trying a murder case of the Chen Mansion recruiting relatives, and a few people want to go in and join in the fun, I hope the official will be accommodating?"

This trick was really tried, the official held the weight of the silver in his hand, and the Ling Ren's expression just now softened, revealing a smiling expression, and he also replied in a calm tone: "This son, you are late, the case has been tried, because of the seriousness of the matter, the prisoner has also been escorted away." ”

"What, where were the prisoners sent?" Lin Nan couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but ask.

"Well, it's the county seat ten miles ahead. As soon as the official heard Lin Nan ask, he thought about it and said, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt that he had received Lin Nan's silver, and it was really harmful to the morality of the rivers and lakes to say only these two words, so he added: "I heard that the prisoner is a person from the Lingjian Villa of the Jianghu Great Sect, but murder is a serious crime, and several people Qingtian Lord hijacked him on the road because of the people of their sect, so this matter was handed over to the Wuwei Dart Bureau to be responsible for transporting the prisoner." "Because Xiao Baiyan committed the crime of murder, which was considered a big crime in the Great Shang Dynasty, it was normal to be sent to a higher place for trial, but when Lin Nan heard him say this, he knew that there were no martial arts masters in this mansion, so he would send the task to the people of the dart bureau to do, so Lin Nan was even more worried.

Now it seems that the purple-clothed man hasn't done it yet, if Lin Nan guessed correctly, what he thinks is to hijack the little white face on the road, and then blame the people of Lingjian Villa, so that the people of the rivers and lakes will spit on this sect of the current leader of the martial arts alliance, and then Lingjian Villa is likely to be discredited because of this, this trick is really vicious, it seems that the secret battle between this purple-clothed man's sect and Lingjian Villa has begun.

When Lin Nan heard this, he asked for the direction of going to the county seat, so he found a horse shop and rented three fast horses, and went straight to the direction of the county seat.

In fact, Lin Nan can use internal qi to increase his speed and fly away with light power, but that Miss Chen and the person in purple are not ordinary things, Lin Nan thinks that Miss Chen will definitely send someone to follow Lin Nan, anyway, this matter should be more low-key, so he took the lead and drove away, Lin Nan did not use any internal force, so as not to be detected that Lin Nan is a master of martial arts.

Of course, Lin Nan has another term for doing this, that is, the legendary pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

The full name of the county seat where the little white face was transported is actually called "Ghost Town", Lin Nan doesn't know why it is called this name, anyway, the officers and soldiers who told Lin Nan to disappear are reluctant to mention this town, especially the name of the town, although so, but listening to his tone, the town is indeed much bigger than Wang Dezhen, and the official quality of the local county official is higher than that of Wang Dezhen, the officers and soldiers are full of praise when they talk about the county official, it seems that the town is indeed strange, he means that the county official has the courage to dare to be a county official in the ghost town.

After an hour or so, Lin Nan arrived at the ghost town, and there was only one road from Wang Dezhen to the ghost town, so Lin Nan did not encounter the car escorting the little white face all the way, and it seemed that they had reached their destination.

Thinking of this, without further ado, Lin Nan didn't stay long and rode his horse and two walking corpse men directly into the smoky "ghost town".

Lin Nan felt that the reason why this town was called a ghost town might be because he couldn't see the direction clearly and the fog was big, anyway, Lin Nan didn't use internal force, and he couldn't see clearly two meters away, but the strange thing was that the climate of this town was very warm, and the fog was so big, which was really incredible.

After a few people entered the town, they walked for a few minutes, and something even stranger happened, Lin Nan found that there was not even a person here, it was really strange to get home, and now it was broad daylight, and several people passed by a lot of dwelling-like houses, and there was no half of them, which really made Lin Nan strange.

There are not even half passers-by and pedestrians, it's really a hell of a life, no wonder it's called a ghost town, this embarrassing thing can stump Lin Nan, since there are no pedestrians, then the location of the local government can't be found by himself, which makes Lin Nan very depressed.

After a few steps forward, Lin Nan jumped off the horse, because there is a crossroads here, and now Lin Nan is dizzy, which one should he go, even if Lin Nan asks the two walking corpses to take one road to check, it won't work, because three people can only walk three roads, and there is one road that can't go, Lin Nan thought of this, and suddenly his mind turned, Lin Nan was really dizzy, although there were four roads at the intersection, but the one where several people came was also considered a road, so now there are just three roads, and three people just one person walks one.

Lin Nan was speechless, it seems that after entering this ghost town, Lin Nan's mind began to be a little unconscious, maybe this town is really weird, and it is also a soul-stirring magic, which makes Lin Nan inevitably have a little curiosity about this ghost town.

Since entering the town, Lin Nan has always been very curious, the surrounding houses are lit up, but no half of them come out, and the climate in the air is very warm, there is no severe cold in winter, but why don't these people go out? Even if this town is really a ghost town as its name suggests, and there are unclean things, then these residents are afraid that they will have already moved, and they will not live in this town, so it is extremely unreasonable to extrapolate in this way.

"What is it that makes these people reluctant to go out? ”

On this point, Lin Nan pondered hard and couldn't find the answer, now in the whole ghost town, Lin Nan estimated that Lin Nan and the two walking corpses were on the street, with a puzzled mood, Lin Nan and the two walking corpses drove a few steps, at this time, several people did not walk in three ways, but walked directly on the upward road, so the three of them were together, at this time a few people walked a few steps, Lin Nan suddenly found that there was a big house in front of him with lights on, and there was a commotion in it, Lin Nan fixed his eyes on the house, and it was written, such as the inn。

Seeing this, Lin Nan had an idea in his heart, so he ordered the two walking corpses to be behind Lin Nan with his heart, and Lin Nan went straight to the inn, since there were people inside, Lin Nan asked where the local county government was, and by the way, he asked what was going on in this town, to be honest, everything in this ghost town made Lin Nan very curious now, and he wanted to find the answer to relieve his itch.

Thinking of this, Lin Nan pushed open the heavy wooden door of the inn with excitement, and with a squeak, everything inside came into Lin Nan's eyes.

The space inside is very large, divided into one, two floors, and what surprised Lin Nan inside was not this, but the people in it were boiling guests, the guests inside filled all the seats in the entire inn, and this inn actually has a table, this table is similar to Lin Nan's modern bar, there are many stools in front of the long bar, and some guests are sitting on the bar and drinking, there are also a lot of wine bowls on the table, and there is a person behind the stage who is like Lin Nan's modern bartender, but there are many types of wine behind him, although there is no foreign wine, all kinds of cocktails, but there are also many types of alcohol。

In short, this is completely the difference between heaven and earth compared to the outside, it is much more lively, those guests are talking and laughing, they seem very happy, of course, no one noticed Lin Nan when he entered the inn, a few guests near the door just turned to look at Lin Nan, and then turned back, not surprised at all, it is no wonder, this is originally an inn, and it is normal for new guests to come in.

But at this moment, Lin Nan found that everyone's eyes were focused on the middle of the place, and there was a table, sitting an old man, it seemed that this old man was quite a bit fairy, the surrounding guests were all sitting around him with him as the center, the old man was drinking alone at the moment, he squinted his eyes, the two ruddy cheeks moved, sighed, it seems that he has drunk good wine, at this time, he raised a folding fan with his right hand, touched his white beard with his left hand, and began to shake his head like a little drunk.

Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged fat man who was very close to him laughed and said: "I drank the wine and ate the meat, so you can go on, what happened to that incident just now?" The middle-aged fat man mentioned this, Lin Nan found that the guests around him all pricked up their ears, and seemed to be interested in what the old man was going to say, Lin Nan couldn't help but smile when he saw this, Lin Nan thought that the old man was coming from, it turned out to be a storyteller, storytellers are very common in this face, unlike modern times that can only be seen in old teahouses. Lin Nan saw that so many people were interested, and Lin Nan also mentioned a little curiosity, smiled and stood in an inconspicuous position, and also looked at the old man, wanting to hear what he was going to say.

However, now Lin Nan has one more thing, a little curious.

It stands to reason that in such a big town, it is impossible for all the people to come to listen to this old man's lectures, Lin Nan probably looked at the guests present, and there were only dozens of people, Lin Nan on the second floor did not go up now, it is not clear, but I probably guessed that the whole inn was only about a hundred people.

Lin Nan saw hundreds of people at the scene of the competition in Wangde Town, and this ghost town has much more population than there, and there must be more than a hundred people here, so Lin Nan is a little curious about this. Another point is that it is daytime, and there is no one on the street, even if these people are all here to listen to the old man's story, it is impossible that there is not even a stall outside, Lin Nan observed when he traveled all the way, there are many shops outside, but they are all closed, since it is a business, it is impossible to open the door to sell things without making money, which really makes Lin Nan curious.

"If this town really only has about a hundred people...... Lin Nan suddenly thought of this, and couldn't help but feel inexplicably nervous, if the population of this ghost town, which is a few points more than Wang De Town, is really only a hundred people, then this town is really a bit weird.

"Could it be that there are really ghosts? So the other residents have moved away?" or ......" Lin Nan read this, and his heart was cold, or these 100 people were not people at all, they were ghosts...... Lin Nan didn't know why he thought of this, but after thinking about it, it was not right, it was daylight now, and the store was well lit, and the ghosts in the legend could not haunt during the day, and they all had shadows, and their faces were normal, they should be people.

"Then why is this town like this?" Lin Nan thought to himself as he walked in the direction of the chairs at the bar.

Lin Nan sat down on the chair, but there was a strange thing, Lin Nan had not come to greet Lin Nan from the time he entered the door until now, and Lin Nan was sitting at this bar, and the bartender inside did not look at Lin Nan, as if Lin Nan was not a guest at all.

However, Lin Nan immediately found the answer, because he found that all the people in the store were looking in the direction of the old man in the middle, and it seemed that the focus was on him.

"What kind of story is he telling?" Lin Nan is very curious, thinking like this, Lin Nan couldn't help but casually ask the bartender for a bottle of wine, and then looked at the old man intently.

But Lin Nan said that after all, but the bartender didn't move, Lin Nan really convinced him, is this still called business, Lin Nan didn't respond when he asked for wine, Lin Nan saw him staring at the old man's appearance, and couldn't help sighing, it seems that the story that the old man is about to tell is much more important than selling wine.

Since this is the case, Lin Nan can only stop drinking for the time being, and looks straight at the old man again, the old man is obviously hanging everyone's appetite, and he actually drank the wine for several minutes before he finished drinking, and when everyone began to be a little impatient, the old man finally put down the wine bowl, wiped the corner of his mouth with the palm of his hand, and then said with a fluttering eyebrow: "I said about Taoyuan Palace just now, right?" As soon as he said this, Lin Nan immediately came to the spirit, not first he was talking about Taoyuan Palace, speaking of this name Lin Nan has not heard for a long time, originally Lin Nan sent the third lady and Xiaohuan to help Lin Nan check this sect, but before Lin Nan left the palace, they came back and said that there was nothing to show, originally a little disappointed, but at that time, Lin Nan did not be too persistent when he thought that he was about to leave the palace, because Lin Nan wanted to check it himself after leaving the palace, because this sect is too mysterious, and even Lin Nan so many elite subordinates can't find out a bit, it seems that this mysterious gang is indeed very set。

However, when Lin Nanzheng was listening happily, someone from the audience came out of nowhere and said: "Wang Daochang, are you drunk and pretending to be confused, you were obviously talking about the Ling Bo Twelve Pictures just now, why did you get involved with that bullshit Taoyuan Palace?"

"Ling Bo Twelve Diagrams?" Lin Nan suddenly tensed up when he heard this name, if the three words of Taoyuan Palace could make Lin Nan's heart shake, then this Ling Bo Twelve Diagram could make Lin Nan's whole body tremble with excitement. (To be continued.) )
