When the carriage arrived at a section of road that could no longer move forward, Qin Yuesheng after getting off the carriage deeply felt how strong his physique was now.

A steady stream of vitality gushes out of the body, and there is considerable explosive power between the movements of the hands and feet.

Bang!

As soon as he stepped on the ground, a two-finger-deep footprint suddenly appeared on the dirt road.

"It's done. Qin Yuesheng nodded with satisfaction.

What everyone didn't expect was that all the way to Baihe Village, Qin Yuesheng turned out to be the one who looked the most effortless, and when he arrived at his destination, he didn't even take a breath of air, and there was no sweat on his body.

The whole person's demeanor looks quite calm.

"Is this Baihe Village, the scenery is quite good. Qin Yuesheng looked at Baihe Village not far away and said with the scenery in the distance.

The entrance of Baihe Village is a high slope, standing here you can see the Gusu Fishing Bay near the east of the village, and further away is the green mountains and white clouds.

"In addition to the water lotus child in Baihe Village, mushrooms, yams, okra, fish and shrimp are all more famous specialties here. Hua Shique said.

He had been to Baihe Village many times and knew the situation quite well.

"Well said. Qin Yuesheng walked down the high slope directly and entered Baihe Village with a group of people.

Without wasting time, after Hua Shique entered the village, he found Su Daqiang, a villager who was responsible for supplying water lotus children to the Qin Mansion.

This person is about forty or fifty years old, with a loyal face, and he looks quite honest.

When Qin Yuesheng followed Hua Shique into Su Daqiang's house, the other party was feeding chickens in the courtyard, two women, one old and one young, were sitting in the corner of the courtyard breaking beans, and a child with pigtails was running around in circles in the courtyard with a wooden windmill.

"Su Daqiang. Hua Shique shouted.

The man put down the dustpan and turned around.

"Mr. Hua. Su Daqiang hurriedly greeted him, "I asked a fellow villager who went to Qingyang City to bring you a message, you know?"

"Got it. Hua Shique stroked his beard: "How could there be such a thing in the good Gusu Fishing Bay, this has never happened before, have you reported to the village official?"

"I reported it, but it was useless, now it's a shame to get out of the water, and a few days later, a stump and broken arm appeared on the shore, not to mention going into the water to find the water lotus boy, our village didn't even dare to fish close to the shore. ”

Faced with Su Daqiang's bitterness, Hua Shique asked: "What do you say about those catchers coming over, is there an investigation?" ”

"I can't investigate, they don't know what is the case, we were still rowing a small boat to take them to the water surface of Gusu Fishing Bay to see, and in the end we didn't see anything famous, in short, no one dares to do this business anymore. ”

Gusu Fishing Bay can not be shipped, it is definitely a big loss for the surrounding area, the water lotus child is equivalent to the specialty of Qingyang City, if this business can not be done, the income of the villagers of Baihe Village will definitely be greatly reduced.

And more importantly, the Qin family has a medicinal food restaurant in Qingyang City that specializes in water lotus children as their signature dishes, if Baihe Village does not produce water lotus children, the Qin family will have to go to the farther water lotus children production area to buy goods, which will invisibly increase a lot of expenses, which is very unfavorable.

"Take me to the shore. Qin Yuesheng said.

"Mr. Hua, who is this?" Su Daqiang wondered.

"Young Master of the Qin Mansion. ”

Su Daqiang hurriedly saluted: "Young Master Qin." ”

"Don't be polite, just take me to the river. Qin Yuesheng said.

Since Qin Yuesheng said so, Su Daqiang naturally had nothing to say, so he directly led Qin Yuesheng and a group of people to the side of Gusu Fishing Bay.

The so-called Gusu Fishing Bay refers to a tributary of the Gusu River, and the surface of this river is covered with many lotus leaf-like plants called water umbrellas, and the rhizomes of this aquatic plant can grow up to half a zhang and several feet above the water surface, which is quite obscuring the visibility of the field of vision.

As soon as Qin Yuesheng came to Gusu Fishing Bay, he looked at it for a while, and then asked Cao Zhengchun to go to the village to buy a chicken and throw it into the river.

Under the gaze of everyone, he saw that after the hen fell into the water, she hurriedly fluttered her wings and prepared to swim to the shore, Qin Yuesheng definitely couldn't give it this opportunity, bent down and picked up a few irregular pebbles from the ground and threw them at the moving hen.

Qin Yuesheng has mastered the flying knife technique, and he never deviates from his sect, so he also has a certain skill in throwing small objects.

Although the level of his flying knife technique was only a beginner, and it was definitely unsatisfactory in terms of accuracy, but under Qin Yuesheng's quantity to replenish quality, four stones in a row were missed, and finally when the hen was close to the shore, he hit its body with the fifth stone.

Today's Qin Yuesheng has the power of 2.0, even ordinary people can't withstand his strength, let alone a chicken, and immediately the hen cried and died in place.

The blood spilling from the wound quickly rendered the water, but the more the blood spread, the more light the red color became.

"Has this method been used in your village?" Qin Yuesheng asked Su Daqiang.

"How? Su Daqiang looked confused.

Hua Shique explained: "Use poultry as bait to see if you can attract things that are hiding in Gusu Fishing Bay to harm people." ”

Su Daqiang suddenly realized: "Those officials who came from Qingyang City seem to have done this, but it was useless, and they didn't find anything in the end." ”

"No hurry, we'll wait. Qin Yuesheng looked at the river indifferently, and then took out the bag of medicinal herbs he carried with him and ate it.

Half a column of incense for a while.

The surface of the river is quite calm, except for the ripples caused by the wind, and the circle of water created when the fish rise to the surface to breathe.

The body of the hen had floated into the umbrellas, and only the head of the chicken was still exposed.

The blood that flowed out of the hen's body had already dried up and dissipated into the river.

Qin Yuesheng sat on a stone and held his chin in his hand, and said secretly in his heart: "Is it true that only people are the target of victimization, and poultry can't look down on them?"

Hua Shique asked, "Young Master, do you still have to wait?"

"Forget it, let's go back first, we'll stay in this village tonight, and I'll observe the situation. Qin Yuesheng got up, took one last look at the river, and then returned to the village.

When everyone left, a black shadow suddenly appeared under the surface of the water where the hen's corpse was, and a sudden splash was seen, and in the blink of an eye, the hen's corpse had disappeared in place, and there was no trace.

The incident in Gusu Fishing Bay can be said to have caused trouble in Baihe Village, firstly, because many villagers have died in the village in the past few days, and there are a bunch of orphans and widows, and secondly, the big guys can no longer do the business of picking water lotus children.

Today's Gusu Fishing Bay who goes into the water and who dies, although it is very profitable to sell water lotus children, but no one dares to do it anymore, after all, compared to life, money is nothing.

However, Baihe Village is the only source of water lotus children's medicinal materials for the Qin family, if there is no way to provide water lotus children for the Qin family here, then the Qin family's business will be greatly affected, and finding other places for the origin of water lotus children is bound to be a lot of expenses, not to mention the high transportation costs that need to be borne at that time.

If there is really no way to solve it, the difficulty is beyond his ability, then Qin Yuesheng will naturally choose to go home, he is not the kind of person who obviously can't do it, has little hope, and desperately wants to get things done.

There are still a lot of people in Baihe Village who can stay overnight, and you just need to give more money.

Qin Yuesheng and his entourage stayed at the house of the village chief, who had the largest residence in the village.

Good fellow, this person's courtyard has twenty side rooms, and there is no need to worry about not having a room at all.

Sunset, dusk.

The village head, Gao Peng, started cooking early at home.

Qin Yuesheng and Hua Shique sat in the courtyard and chatted with Gao Peng about Gusu Fishing Bay.

"Qin Gongzi, this happened quite suddenly, those villagers who went into the water to pick water lotus children suddenly disappeared, and not even a single one was found, and many arms appeared on the shore a few days later. ”

Gao Peng sat on a bamboo bench with a backrest, and said inarticulate while breaking peanuts and stuffing them into his mouth.

Qin Yuesheng leaned back in his chair: "Didn't there be any precursor before this happened, did anyone die in or near your village before this? ”

Gao Peng choked up a little: "Recently...... It doesn't seem to be, the old immortals in our village are all alive and well, and none of them have a burp. ”

Qin Yuesheng was about to answer, but Gao Peng suddenly had an idea, slapped his thigh and shouted: "Qin Gongzi said this, I suddenly remembered something. ”

The peanut kernel that had just been peeled in Qin Yuesheng's hand was yelled at by him, and his hands trembled, and both fell to the ground, but they couldn't eat it anymore.

"What are you doing yelling so loudly, there is something to say, our young master is not deaf, he can hear it. Cao Zhengchun saw this scene and immediately scolded him.

Qin Yuesheng waved his hand indifferently: "Let him continue." ”

Gao Peng said: "Just two days before this happened, a small boat that had never been seen before came from the Gusu Fishing Bay, which came from the side of the Gusu River. ”

"What's the point of a small boat, don't you all use fishing boats when fishing in Baihe Village? Hua Shique wondered.

"No, that little boat is different. Gao Peng looked serious: "Where the boat passes, the water will turn black, and the umbrella will wither." ”

"And then. Qin Yuesheng asked.

"No, the ship just passed through Gusu Fishing Bay. ”

Qin Yuesheng looked at the sky and fell into deep thought.

A boat that can turn water black and plants wither.

This is not similar to the faceless coffin bearers mentioned by Du Belen.

I can't guarantee that the situation in Gusu Fishing Bay this time was caused by that boat, just like those few faceless coffin bearers caused crazy people to go to the street to cut people.

"Qingyang City is going to be in chaos, there are so many moths in a row. ”
