The shopkeeper said, "The man is wearing a black cloak with a brim that covers his face, and I really can't see it." As for men and women...... The man's voice was hoarse, as if his voice had broken out, and he couldn't hear men and women. ”

After hearing this, Li Wenyuan took out ten taels of silver from his arms and handed it to the bookstore shopkeeper, and said to him: "I didn't bring change when I went out, these are all for you, so you don't need to look for them." ”

After finishing speaking, Li Wenyuan took the book and left the bookstore with Qiu Niang. Ignoring the shopkeeper who shouted and shouted in the back to find him five taels of silver.

Qiu Niang and Li Wenyuan didn't go anywhere else after they came out of the bookstore, and hurried all the way back to the inn where they stayed last night. Now they don't have too many clues in their hands, and in this Zhangye County, Qiu Niang and Li Wenyuan are not familiar with each other, and when they find out the results, they are afraid that Han Gudu will become a white bone. Their trip was a private visit to Weifu, and they didn't even notify the night owls in Zhangye County, and they had no plans to launch the night owls to find clues together for the time being. So instead of wasting time on running around investigating, it is better to analyze the clue you just got first, and it is best to know a general direction.

On the way back, Li Wenyuan and Qiu Niang both felt that someone was staring at them behind them more than once, but whenever the two turned their heads to check the situation behind them, they didn't find anything unusual. Li Wenyuan and Qiu Niang glanced at each other, and they both saw the surprise in each other's eyes. Because Li Wenyuan and Qiu Niang both know that the feeling of being watched by a person can be understood as an illusion, but if both people have feelings, then they must be being targeted. In order to ensure their own safety, after confirming each other's thoughts, the two of them accelerated their pace again, regardless of whether anyone was following them behind them, and went straight to the inn where they stayed last night.

At this time, in the inn, the atmosphere in the room was a little weird. Li Zhi sat quietly on the chair with his hands on his chest and closed his eyes to recuperate, while Han Yingxue opposite him was a little restless. After all, it is still not acceptable for a lonely man and a widow to live in the same room in this era, so in the past few years, Han Yingxue has never been alone with a foreign man for so long. Just as the air in the room was almost stagnant, a rush of footsteps came from outside the door, and then the door was pushed open and someone broke in. Li Zhi subconsciously stood up, pulled out the saber on his waist and blocked it in front of Han Yingxue.

After seeing the person clearly, Li Zhi withdrew his knife and knelt on the ground: "See His Royal Highness King Tang." See Princess. ”

Li Wenyuan waved his hand to signal Li Zhi to get up, and pulled Qiu Niang to sit on the stool next to the table. Picked up the kettle on the table and poured two bowls of water, picked up the bowl of water in front of him and drank it all, and then let out a long breath, without any manners at all.

Li Zhi and Han Yingxue couldn't help but feel a little strange when they saw the two of them hurriedly pushing the door in, and quickly closed the door behind them tightly. One of these two people is His Royal Highness the King of Tang, and the other is the Princess of Tang. On weekdays, it can be described as a dragon and phoenix, and every move reveals a mature and stable atmosphere. Especially Qiu Niang, she is the agent leader of Li Wenyuan's largest spy network, she has never seen any strong winds and waves, and there are not many things that can make her so embarrassed. At this time, the two of them looked unkind, and it seemed that they had encountered something extremely difficult.

Li Wenyuan and Qiu Niang sat on chairs, the door behind them was closed, and the window in the room was not opened, which made the two of them feel that those eyes on their backs had disappeared. Li Wenyuan calmed down his breath, which was slightly gasping because of the rapid travel all the way, and said to the two people in front of him: "There must be something strange in this Zhangye County City." On the way back with Qiu Niang just now, I noticed more than once that someone was following and watching the two of us behind me. I could feel that this person was very close to us, which was the most terrifying thing, because the two of us turned back and found no trace of the person who was watching us. The situation we face next is very serious, and it is important to keep a low profile in order to ensure safety. ”

Speaking of this, Li Wenyuan looked at Han Yingxue: "Especially Han Yingxue, don't go outside unless you have to." I'll be sorry for you to stay in this room for a few days, at least until we figure out who our enemies really are. ”

Seeing that the two nodded yes, Li Wenyuan was a little relieved: "That's right." Has anyone ever been here during the time I was out with Qiu Niang? Or is there something out of the ordinary? ”

Han Yingxue just wanted to get up and reply, but was stopped by Li Wenyuan waving her hand, so she sat on the chair and thought for a while, and replied, "There is nothing unusual." Only the second child in this shop came up and knocked on the door a few times, asking if he needed something to eat. They said that in this season, there is no shortage of melons, fruits, pears and peaches in Zhangye County, and many of them are the characteristics of Zhangye County, which are worth tasting, but they were all rejected by Brother Li Zhi, and only ordered Xiao Er to serve a pot of water,"

As she spoke, Han Yingxue pointed to the kettle on the table and continued: "After this pot of water came up, Brother Li Zhi used the secret medicine to confirm that there was no poison or sweat medicine in it, so he was willing to let me drink it." ”

After listening to Han Yingxue's words, Li Wenyuan nodded with satisfaction. It was inconvenient for him to bring too many people with him on this trip, so he only brought Li Zhi with him. Walking the rivers and lakes alone, Li Wenyuan does not need a strong martial arts guard, nor does he need an intelligence spy with outstanding skills, what he needs most is an encyclopedia that knows a little about everything. Li Zhi is such a person, his biggest advantage is that he is well-informed, and he will not panic when he encounters things, it can be said that he is well-informed, and taking Li Zhi with him has saved Li Wenyuan a lot of trouble.

Li Wenyuan nodded to Li Zhi and said that he was very satisfied with his work. Then he sent the two away, and took out the mysterious note that the bookstore owner had given him.

Li Wenyuan carefully unfolded the note, only to see that the handwriting on it was very sloppy: To strangers. I don't know what to call you, so I'll take the liberty of calling you a gim. Now that you can see the note, then explain it. You are a man of good character in the extremely critical eyes of the shopkeeper. I'm writing this note because I may be dying soon, but my mission hasn't been accomplished. I beg your pardon for revealing my identity and name, and if you see this note, I would like to ask you to do something for me. After the deed is completed, someone will naturally give you enough remuneration, which will definitely make you worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life. I beg you to take this note to Dunhuang County and hand it over to Li Wenyuan, the king of Tang. You don't have to worry about King Tang not wanting to pay you, as long as you give him this note, he will definitely meet you personally. The night owl is rotten.
