Chapter 508: The Road Meets the Black Shop
"I don't know where your guests are coming from and where are you going?" The man brought Ye Feng a bowl of water over, and asked Ye Feng.
"Oh, I'm from the Body Ring Temple, and I have something to do to go to the Tenryu Temple. No, I didn't notice that it was late when I was in a hurry, I thought I was going to sleep in the wilderness, but I didn't expect to find that there was still your house here while walking, so I came over to disturb it, and I hope that the eldest brother will not mind. Ye Feng took out a piece of loose silver from his arms and handed it to the man.
"This is a thought, and I hope that the eldest brother can be tired to help make something to eat. ”
When the man heard Ye Feng's words, he smiled and accepted the silver: "The distinguished guest is really too polite, this farmer's food is not as good as the restaurant in the city." I hope you don't find it unpalatable. ”
As he spoke, the man turned around and went out to prepare for food, and Ye Feng sat there quietly, looking left and right at the scene in the room.
Ye Feng found that in this room, it was relatively simple, except for a bow and a few pots of arrows, plus this spear and a short knife hanging on the wall, there were no other decorations.
There is a simple curtain hanging on the earthen kang, and a straw mat is spread with a pair of bedding, although it is not good, it is also clean and tidy.
Looking left and right, Ye Feng suddenly sighed, and his brows were furrowed.
For in one of the corners of the room, a satin garment caught his eye.
The silk garment in the corner, hidden in the corner, was hidden under a dustpan, but it seemed to have been placed in a hurry, so that a large piece was exposed.
Seeing this piece of clothing made Ye Feng's heart move slightly. Because clothes of this quality are absolutely impossible to have in such a mountain village.
If you look closely at the standard of the clothes, it is not like the common style in the Central Plains, and it seems to be a bit similar to the monk's robe.
With such a texture and this style, Ye Feng quietly picked up the dustpan and looked at it carefully while the middle-aged man was out cooking.
Sure enough, it is a monk's robe, and it is not a monk's robe in the Central Plains, like the clothes of a monk.
This discovery made Ye Feng's heart rise all of a sudden.
This kind of barren mountains and mountains should not be a permanent residence for farmers, and this kind of fabric, this style of clothing, should not be something that farmers have.
"Could it be that this family is actually a black shop? But if it is a black shop, how can it be such an ordinary farmhouse courtyard? And there is no shop in front of the village and no shop in the back, I am afraid that I will not see anyone all year round. But if it weren't for the black shop, where would this ordinary person get the silk monk's robe?"
With all kinds of doubts, Ye Feng couldn't sit still, looking at the oil lamp on the table, thinking about it again and again.
"Your guest has made you wait for a long time, this is just made meat, this barren mountains and mountains, there is nothing else to eat, I don't know if it suits the appetite of your guests, this wine is made by our own family, it is not a good wine, you have the right to quench your thirst." ”
When Ye Feng was thinking about the problem, a person walked in, put two plates and a pot of wine on the table, and said in a low voice.
Ye Feng was stunned when he heard this voice, and immediately looked up, and it was not the man standing in front of him just now, but a peasant woman who was about thirty or forty years old.
"Oh, it's good to be able to make up for your belly, and when you're out and about, you don't pay so much attention to it. This sister-in-law, I don't know that the eldest brother is yours just now?" Ye Feng asked suspiciously.
"Oh, that's my husband, this is the home of the two of us, it is said to be home, in fact, it is only here for a period of time when I go up to the mountains to hunt and pickle meat, if my son comes a few days late, I am afraid that he will have to find a way to cook by himself. The peasant woman smiled.
"I see, I said why the house is so shabby. By the way, sister-in-law, let me ask you, have you seen a monk passing by here recently?" Ye Feng asked tentatively, only to see that the peasant woman's face changed color, and it took a while to return to normal.
"Monk, monk, I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it, what is the son asking for?"
The peasant woman's tone of voice was staccato, and her eyes were evasive, as if she wanted to hide something.
It's just that her acting skills are so bad that she can be seen through at a glance.
However, Ye Feng didn't want to expose her at this time, since he knew it in his heart, Ye Feng decided to wait and see what the hell these two people were doing, if they really lived in the barren mountains and wilderness, then they couldn't talk about it, and they couldn't say anything about it, and they couldn't say that they wanted to do something for the sky.
"It's nothing, Master Xuanbei of Shaolin in the Body Ring Temple was killed a few days ago, and it is understood that the route they took should be this road, so I inquired by the way to see if I could get any clues. Ye Feng said nonsense, but unexpectedly, the peasant woman's face became even more ugly.
"Childe, you, are you from the government, are you here to investigate the case?"
As if he hadn't seen the woman's expression, Ye Feng picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and chewed it in his mouth for a while: "It tastes good, hehe, sister-in-law don't be nervous, I'm not from the yamen, but I have a little friendship with the Dali royal family, and it's just curiosity to ask this question." ”
Ye Feng is really right in what he said, Mu Wanqing and Zhong Lingke are both Duan Zhengchun's own daughters, and now Duan Zhengchun is the king of Dali Zhennan, how can these two daughters be regarded as county lords.
"Oh, oh, I see, you use it slowly, and I'll go to the kitchen to see if the other dishes are ready. When the peasant woman heard the words of the Dali royal family, she almost jumped up, and after recovering for a long time, she beckoned Ye Feng to eat, and turned around and left quickly.
Seeing the woman leaving in a panic, Ye Feng was amused in his heart, he could at least be sure of one thing, judging from the appearance of this woman, these two should not be Jiangyang thieves who made a living from this, so there might be something hidden in it.
After walking out of the house, he looked around and found that the kitchen was still a little far away from this room, and Ye Feng came to the roof of the kitchen by taking advantage of the night, took down a piece of rubble, and looked down to quietly watch the situation in the house.
"Daddy, the boy who came just now, let's forget it. Then the woman hurried into the kitchen and could not help shouting at the man.
"What are you arguing about, that kid probably hasn't drunk yet, in case he hears and runs away, where are we going to find such a fat sheep?" the man waved his hand impatiently at the woman, signaling her not to disturb him.
"His father, we can't move this son, I chatted with him a few words just now, this son seems to have something to do with our Dali royal family, if something really happens in our family, in case the government investigates it, we won't be able to eat and go around." ”
As soon as the woman finished speaking, the man was stunned: "What? Do you know the emperor? My mother, why is our family so unlucky." ”
