After the group entered the courtyard, they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, but at the same time, Li Wenyuan's heart became anxious and unbearable. At this time, the evil fire came from nowhere, and for a while, it made Li Wenyuan feel a little anxious and thirsty. Li Wenyuan swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then prepared to step forward and enter the main hall of the night owl headquarters, which was definitely the place where the night owl commander worked on weekdays.

But just when Li Wenyuan took the first step forward, he didn't know who hit him on the shoulder, and at the same time, a note was stuffed into his hand by that person in an extremely secret way. Li Wenyuan noticed that there was something wrong in his hand, so he used his middle finger and thumb to distinguish it slightly, and after finding that it was a note, he also quietly hid the note in his sleeve robe, and then covered his stomach with his hand, and asked the night owl commander next to him:

"Oops, it's been a bumpy ride, and my stomach is a little uncomfortable. Do you have a thatched house here? Let me go and put a little grass back, and then we can continue to talk. ”

It may be that Li Wenyuan's unexpected words on this day are really too many unexpected words, so for Li Wenyuan in the night owl headquarters just took a few steps, that is, directly asked himself the location of the thatched house, the night owl commander was not stunned as before, but directly raised his hand, pointed to a direction, and said to Li Wenyuan:

"You go all the way from here, turn right, and you can see the hut. There's everything you need in there, just go for it. When you come back, we'll meet in this hall, and we'll be waiting for you here, what do you think? ”

Li Wenyuan covered his stomach with his hands, the sweat like soybeans on his face was dripping downward, and after only saying a good word to the night owl commander, he rushed out in the direction pointed by the night owl commander without looking back, not caring about his own etiquette and majesty at all, after all, people have three urgency.

After watching Li Wenyuan leave, the Night Stalker Commander looked at the rest of the people around him and said to them, "Come on, my lords, let's not run here and stand stupidly." It's a hot day, so let's go into the house, and I'll order some good herbal tea for you. In addition, there is an ice box made of Kitayama ice that was specially collected last winter, and the temperature is much cooler than this outside. ”

Li Wenyuan flew all the way to the place pointed to him by the night owl commander, and when he came here, he saw that there was indeed a place where the decoration style was no different from the public toilets of later generations. I saw a wooden sign hanging next to this room, which said that it was a latrine. Li Wenyuan knew that there was nothing wrong here, so after distinguishing between men and women, he pushed the door and entered the latrine.

The inside of the thatched toilet is also like the public toilet in later generations, after entering it is a small single room separated by wooden boards, and there is a door outside, and there is a lock inside to lock it from the inside, so as to avoid being suddenly opened when the thatch is halfway through and making both sides embarrassed.

After Li Wenyuan entered, he took the door lock with his backhand and looked at the stack of yellow paper on his left. It is said to be yellow paper, but it is actually some very poor quality paper. The paper used for writing is not qualified at all, so it is simply used as toilet paper here.

After Li Wenyuan closed the door, he listened carefully to the outside, after confirming that no one was following him. Only then did we return our attention to the small partition of the private room. Li Wenyuan looked down, it turned out that this was not the traditional kind of dry toilet, but a wooden toilet that looked no different from the sitting toilet of later generations.

Li Wenyuan even lifted his robe and sat on the toilet, thinking that he was here anyway, so he couldn't just leave without doing anything, it wasn't a rice ball, it was not a rice ball, the whole white pill was a little too much of a loss.

So Li Wenyuan lifted the lid and sat on the toilet, as if he heard the sound of running water coming from under the toilet. Only then did I know that although this thatched house is public, but there is no specific reason for the pungent smell, it turns out that there is continuous flowing water below, and all the filth that falls from above will flow into the drainage system of Zhangye County along the flowing water.

Li Wenyuan sat on the toilet and carefully took out the note that the previous person had stuffed into him and took it out of the sleeve of his robe. With the help of the flame of the candle next to it, I looked carefully at the words written on it, and saw that the person who wrote it seemed to be in a hurry, and wrote a few lines of simplified Chinese characters crookedly:

"Qiu Niang is safe and in prison. I don't see the day, I don't hear people's words. ”

Seeing these words, Li Wenyuan's heart felt a little relieved. However, who stuffed this note to himself, Li Wenyuan really did not find out. In fact, he was hit on the shoulder at that time, and when he realized that there was something in his hand, he immediately looked in the direction of the hit, but he didn't see anyone who might collide with him. The rest of the group, including the Night Stalker Leader, had been drawn away from other places at the time, so they didn't see this person.

Although I don't know who passed it on, Li Wenyuan still has some trust in what is written on this note. After all, if you are in a hurry to go to the doctor, some clues are always more efficient than looking around without a leader.

After Li Wenyuan read these notes, he also tore them to shreds. Threw it down the toilet into the drainage pipe below, and then walked out of the latrine, washed his hands in the running water next to him, and dried his hands with the cloth next to him.

When he came to the door of the main hall, there were his own subordinates waiting for Li Wenyuan here. After seeing Li Wenyuan coming, he stepped forward and led Li Wenyuan all the way into the main hall and into the main seat. The night owl next to him told Li Wenyuan that there was winter ice collected from Beishan in this house, placed it in the ice box, and arranged more than a dozen places in the house, so the temperature in this house was much cooler than outside.

Subsequently, the night owl commander poured a bowl of herbal tea for Li Wenyuan. After Li Wenyuan took it, he tried it with the silver needle hidden in the silver ring in his hand, but it was not poisonous. In fact, Li Wenyuan knows a little about the poison test of silver needles, and he knows that except for a few poisons, for example, a large amount of sulfur impurities contained in arsenic, which is still relatively low in refining concentration at this time, will react with silver, making silver needles become black needles.
