Chapter 161
The two rested for a while, then packed up their things, carried a large bag, went downstairs, had dinner in the lobby, and then checked out of the inn directly. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
The two had a tacit understanding to carry the salute on their backs, and went around to the back of the inn, and when they came out, both of them had become, empty-handed, and the two walked to the only chariot and horse shop nearby, booked a carriage, and headed for Yizhuang.
It was already dark, and there was only one night watchman left in Yizhuang, a very old man, Yun Man pinched a little drug with his fingers, and when Ah Xiang was talking to the old man, he spilled the drug, and the old man slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep on his stomach.
Yun Man was busy leading, covering his mouth Ah Xiang, to the coffin of Ah Xiang's parents, the two worshipped, and then put the two coffins into the space.
"Let's go!"
The two of them easily left Yizhuang, arrived at the carriage and horse shop, got in the carriage, and headed towards Fengcheng.
As soon as the carriage entered Fengcheng, it immediately came with a lively hustle and bustle.
Fengcheng, known for its wharf and water, is the city with the most abundant water in the north, so it is called the city of abundant water, and the city is full of winding rivers.
Although the river is not wide, it is no problem for small cargo ships to be two side by side, because small boats can enter and exit Fengcheng freely, so many merchants who come and go from the south to the north will build warehouses in Fengcheng, because taking the waterway, transporting goods is the fastest transportation method in this era.
Fengcheng is also because of this waterway, this wharf, since then prosperous, compared to the solemnity of Kyoto, Fengcheng is a vibrant city, night and night lights are bright, people come and go, boats come and go, very lively.
So the carriage didn't go smoothly this way, because there were many people, Yun Man looked at it, and estimated that it was the fastest to take a small boat directly to the dock, so he stopped the carriage and settled the account with the coachman, saying that it was to go shopping.
The coachman is not suspicious, all the people who come to Fengcheng, when they see such a lively night, they can't help but get out of the car and take a stroll, over the years, the coachman has also seen too much.
Ah Xiang has two stars in her eyes at this time, and she wants to go in and see any store.
Yun Man shook his head, always feeling a little uneasy in his heart, so he pulled Ah Xiang, quickly bought some food, went to the ready-to-wear shop, changed his outfits, and the two pretended to be sisters, found a small boat, and went to the dock.
When Yun Man and Ah Xiang just got on the boat, many of the people from the rivers and lakes who had rushed to see the fireworks rushed to Fengcheng to search for someone.
"Sister Yun, are we staying overnight in Fengcheng! It's so beautiful. ”
Ah Xiang's sister Yun made Yun Man think of Qin Duyu all of a sudden, but Yun Man knew that she and he would never go back.
"No, I always feel uneasy, let's leave as soon as possible."
Yun Man sat on the boat, I don't know why, I always felt panicked, as if something bad was about to happen, which made her very uneasy.
Ah Xiang looked at Yun Man's expression, then nodded obediently and stopped talking.
"Maybe I'll come back someday, and I'll stay here for a while!"
"Yes!" Ah Xiang nodded and smiled.
The speed of the boat was very fast, and it quickly rushed out of the small river channel and reached the dock.
Ten hours ago, on the lawn under the mountain
In front of the pile of firewood ashes, a large number of people gathered, as soon as there were many people, this trace was trampled on very messily, and some of the previous traces were difficult to identify, but the traces of the grass being burned by the fireworks were still obvious, a bunch of people in the rivers and lakes, lying on the ground, smelling everywhere, and even holding their hands, pinching up a trace of black gunpowder, and putting it on the tip of their nose to smell.
In the crowd, there were everyone, all of them were of all religions and nine ranks, and even the palace sent guards, but they all changed into civilian clothes, but the temperament of a soldier can still be recognized at a glance in the crowd.
If Yun Man was here, he would find that even Qin Duyu had changed into civilian clothes and quietly mixed in the crowd.
"Hey, this, there are traces here, it looks like there are two board cars parked here!"
A person in the rivers and lakes who was looking for traces in a dark corner suddenly exclaimed, and in an instant, the crowd, hula, gathered in that place.
"Cart?" Brother Gongzi, who was looking for Yun Man to ask for directions before, suddenly flashed in his mind Yun Man's convoy, and it seemed that there were two board cars.
Just based on this alone, he couldn't conclude that Yun Man's convoy was the person he was looking for, so he turned around and asked the people from the rivers and lakes who came with him, asking them if they had seen the convoy pulling the coffin on the way from Fengcheng to Kyoto.
I asked more than a dozen people in a row, and they all replied,
"No, I don't remember!"
"I haven't seen it, could it be that it's not from the direction of Fengcheng?"
"Nope!"
Every time he asked one more person, the boy brother felt a little more sure in his heart, and he was about to turn over and get on the horse and track all the way towards Fengcheng, but he was surrounded by people.
He looked at the black-clothed people in front of him, who had obviously enlisted in the army, so he secretly beat the drum in his heart, stood up straight, made a gesture, and said humbly,
"Big brothers, what are you doing?"
"My master, please talk over there!"
The guard replied coldly, and when the boy brother heard this, he turned his head to look around at the others, and found that the crowd had unconsciously retreated, obviously not wanting to cause trouble, so he could only pretend to be chic and wave his hand,
"Okay, please!"
"This way, please!" The guard led the boy and walked towards the woods.
At this moment, in the woods, Qin Duyu was staring at a bloodstain, and that location was the location where the white wolf was born before.
Because this location is in the woods, it is somewhat hidden, so others didn't notice it, and they didn't see this bloodstain.
"Tell me what you were just asking about and what do you know?"
Qin Duyu didn't look up, and looked around the bloodstains, carefully inspecting them.
"Who are you?"
When the boy who asked for directions saw the clothes on Qin Duyu's body, he knew that the person in front of him was either rich or expensive, but such a commanding speech made him feel a little unhappy in his heart, so he asked more.
"That's not what you should know!"
The guard on the side stepped forward, "swish", pulled out a sword, pointed at the man, the man's face suddenly stiffened, and then tightened the sword in his hand, and then looked at the guards around him, or lowered the sword in his hand.
"After we heard the loud noise, we thought that there was a strange treasure out of the mountain, so we hurried here, and when we were about to arrive here, we met a team of carriages and horses, which were rushing to Kyoto, and there were two carts pulled behind, and there were two coffins on them, and the convoy also invited the people of the dart bureau to escort them, it seemed to be a pair of brothers and sisters, in order to protect the spirit back to Kyoto, so I thought, just now I saw the traces of the carts, will it be left by the team of people, find them, maybe you can know the truth."
"Oh, is there anything else? Have you ever seen that woman? “
Qin Duyu only raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the word brother and sister, and secretly said in his heart, could it be that the sister is Yun Man.
"The girl had been hiding in the car, and had not seen her, but she seemed frightened, and shouted that she wanted to go back to Toyoshiro, but whether she went to Kyoto or Toyoshiro, I can't be sure, oh her brother is a chubby man, with a kind face, and very polite."
As he spoke, the man made a gesture and said bluntly,
"That's all I know, can I go?"
Qin Duyu stood up at this time, looked at the man and said,
"Thank you, you can go."
As he spoke, he turned around and walked forward, the guard immediately stepped forward and untied the rope that tied the horse, Qin Duyu turned over, then rode on the horse, ready to gallop away, suddenly he remembered something, so he took out a portrait of Yun Man from his arms and handed it to the guard.
After a while, all the people in the rivers and lakes galloped away on horseback, some went to Kyoto, some went to Yulong Snow Mountain, and some went to Fengcheng.
And Qin Duyu, beating a horse and standing on the official road, looked at three different roads, pondered for a while, and finally rode his horse to Fengcheng. (To be continued.) )
