There's something weird about the interior. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The sound of prying bricks was fine, and Su San and Luo Yin sat at the table, looking at Bai San.
Bai San took a big sip of water, sighed and said, "My sister's name is Bai Ru, and our family is on the grain mountain. It's a grain mountain person. ”
Luo Yin was stunned: "Are you from Liangshan?" ”
"Yes. Hehe, in fact, not all of our people are so bad, they have to go around catching babies, and there are also honest people who do business. ”
Su San looked at Bai San, thinking that he wanted to listen to Wangdui and Luo Yin say that the people in Liangshan were all black and thin, with tall noses and easy to identify, and it turned out that there were fat people with collapsed noses like Bai San.
"Are you sure that person is your sister?" Luo Yin's gaze swept towards the fire kang.
Bai San kept avoiding looking at the female corpse, lowered his eyes and said, "Sure, the face hasn't changed, it's just that the color has changed." My sister is ten years younger than me, and I have watched her grow up since she was a child, how can I admit my mistake, but I really can't figure it out, how could she be here? I always stop in this shop, my sister has been missing for more than half a year, I found out that she was in an accident on the road near here, I passed by these three times in the past six months, observed for a long time, and felt that this boss lady could not see anything abnormal except for the coquettish point, and that guy, oh, called Erbao, looking at the timid and afraid coward, I knew that there was something strange in this neighborhood, but I really didn't expect that it would be the people of this hotel who killed my sister. ”
"How did your sister go missing?"
Su San asked.
"Well, that's a ...... She fell in love with a baby, clamoring to marry that baby, it is impossible for a family like ours to marry a slave baby, our whole family will be disgraced, and it is likely that we will be driven out of the grain mountain, our ancestors have lived there for generations, and there is really no place to survive if we were driven out. Later, she eloped with the baby. Bai San sighed.
"Why are there still slaves in this era? You're about the same as Xikang there? ”
Su San frowned slightly.
Wangdui, who was concentrating on prying bricks, turned around and said: "What's more, they are much more backward than our Xikangke, poor and barbaric, we Xikang people never interact with their grain mountain people, and they still go to our place to steal cattle and sheep." ”
Bai San smiled bitterly: "You are really a Xikang person, and you lied to the woman that you are from Lijiang." “
Just as Wangdui was about to reply, a brick had been removed, and he exclaimed, "This is a man!" ”
The three of them immediately surrounded him, Bai San glanced at it, sighed and said: "It's Quba, it's the baby who eloped with my sister, I always thought that my sister was killed by him, I didn't think of it...... Unexpectedly... It turned out that the two of them ...... Alas...... I ......"
The rude Bai San choked up and couldn't go on.
Okay, now that there are two corpses, you can have a showdown with the innkeeper.
Wangdui jumped off the kang and washed it in a large copper basin. When he turned around and saw that the three of them were not moving, he asked, "Let's go, go to the boss lady, and report to the official." ”
Bai San looked at them and whispered: "Actually, I also have an official position in Liangshan, and there are six customers in this shop, two of whom are my entourage. ”
Su San didn't believe it and looked him up and down.
It's also strange to say, yesterday this Bai San was still smiling and obscene, and he was also a very scoundrel when he quarreled with Wangdui in the morning, which made him straighten his waist, his face was serious, and his whole temperament changed all of a sudden, and he really had a bit of the majesty of being an official.
Luo Yin knew that these areas were all managed by the Tusi nobles, and since this person claimed that his family had lived here for generations, and there were slave babies, it might be local nobles, tribunes, etc., so he nodded and said, "Let's go, Mr. Bai, now is the time to find the boss lady and his buddies and uncover the truth about your sister's murder." ”
Everyone walked out of the house and saw the proprietress drying clothes in the yard at the stairs.
Seeing a few of them coming down together, he was slightly stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Yo, where did the sun come from, it was like two cockfights in the morning, it would be fine." ”
Su San glanced at Wangdui, Wangdui smiled, and pointed at Bai San: "We almost fought in the morning." ”
"Brother, I did it on purpose in the morning, you went out once last night, and I have been secretly observing and always feeling that you seem to have found something, and I want to deliberately provoke you in the morning." Bai San clenched his fists again.
As they walked down, two guests also walked out of the room, one in front of the other and one behind the other at the door, obviously Bai San's people.
"Boss, please follow me upstairs to have a look."
Luo Yin pointed to the second floor.
The proprietress was stunned: "What's the matter?" I've never seen anything as troublesome as yours. In the middle of the night, people can't sleep, and in the morning they fight with other guests. Having said that, she snorted and twisted her waist to go upstairs.
Entering the house, Luo Yin pointed to the fire kang and asked, "What is there?" ”
The proprietress looked at it, and with a bang, she turned around and didn't let go no matter who hugged her.
Wangdui was hugged tightly by her neck, she couldn't breathe at all, a strong aroma drilled into his nose, Wangdui couldn't bear it, sneezed, sneezed hard, the proprietress let go of her hand again, and wiped the foaming star on her face with her sleeve.
"Boss, what's the matter with this corpse?"
Su San asked.
"yes, how can there be a corpse here?" The proprietress swept her gaze over their faces, and suddenly slapped her thigh and exclaimed, "How do you know there are corpses here?" Is it your ......?"
"We found out last night that there was something wrong with this kang kang, and there was no way to check it too late, so let's say, why did you kill people? How many corpses are still in the kang of this hotel. ”
Luo Yin asked.
As soon as the proprietress heard this, she began to cry, and said while crying, "How do I know, how can this be, this person...... Who is this dead man? ”
"It's my sister, Bai Ru, we are the Bai family of Liangshan, you are brave enough to even our Bai family."
Bai Sanqi's eyes cracked.
"Wait." The proprietress stopped crying, pointed to the corpse and asked, "Fatty, you said that is a grain mountain person?" Is it a girl? But eighteen or nineteen years old, with a slightly dark complexion and big eyes, she was with a young descendant, but that descendant didn't look like a person from Liangshan. ”
"Yes, Quba is not a grain mountain person, he is a baby who was arrested."
"What? Didn't you say that your family didn't catch a baby? Su San asked.
"Listen to him deceive, Miss Su, the people of Liangshan are bad." Wangdui said on the side.
"Yes, my family and I have not caught the baby, but our Bai family is a big family, we have not been caught in this house, and other rooms have been caught, we don't treat the baby as a person at all, and send it here and there, this Quba was given to my family by a relative, who would have thought that he would abduct my sister."
"As soon as you say the eldest lady on the grain mountain, I remember, a few months ago, I thought, oh, in July, there was an eldest lady and a descendant who lived with us for a few days. The eldest lady was dressed quite well, and when she heard the tone of her voice, she was the noble lady of Liangshan, and the offspring looked like a Han person, so I took a few more looks. The proprietress is really very good at observing words and feelings, seeing that Su San was a little suspicious, she hurriedly explained, "This young lady doesn't know, this noble lady of Liangshan will not marry the Han people, I saw that the two of them were sleeping in the same room, so I muttered in my heart, and secretly said to Erbao." ”
"Yes, Erbao, where are the two shopkeepers?" The proprietress reminded Su San of her words.
