Text 146. Strange people and strange peach blossom towns
Li Rou smiled and said to the young woman in yellow: "This house is obviously just a small faΓ§ade from the outside, and there are so few people on the street, how can there be so many people in and out of this house?" The room in the back doesn't fit as many people. Isn't it strange that there are a lot of people coming in and out of this house, and the back room is obviously not large? β
The young woman in yellow suddenly restrained her smile and looked at Li Rou vigilantly: "How do you know that there are a lot of people coming in and out?" How do you see that? β
Li Rou looked at the young woman in yellow casually: "There are green bricks on the ground, and the footprints of people are cleaned, but they are not washed with water, maybe you are afraid that the moisture will seep into the ground, maybe there is not only a ground dragon under this green brick, but there is also a layer below." But you have forgotten that the green bricks can be swept to remove the floating ash, but the shoes of the people who come in outside are covered with snow, and the snow melts and the water will leave a mark on the ground, and this mark can be seen obliquely when the sun shines in. β
The young woman in yellow was stunned for a moment, and also squatted down to take a look, and sure enough, she saw a lot of footprints: "That's right, you observed very carefully." It was my negligence. Girl, you are really smart and clever, boy, it seems that not only you are smart, but the women around you are not stupid. β
Yao Guangqi suddenly admired Li Rou, at this moment he felt that it might not be a bad thing to let Li Rou follow, maybe this smart woman could really help him. "I received a note reminding me that the case was solved and I could receive the bounty." Yao Guangqi said with a smile.
The young woman in yellow stood up: "The note was sent by our people. Now that you remember, I have to remind you that there are two conditions attached to receiving the bounty. β
Yao Guangqi naturally sat in front of the young woman in yellow: "I remember, but I am more concerned about another thing, if I am not mistaken, the 200,000 yuan bounty was offered by two different people, but the two people who issued the bounty are no longer alive, how do you honor your bounty?" Out of your own pocket? β
The young woman in yellow sneered: "How many waves of people sent it, what happened to the person who issued the bounty, we have rules, and we must not leak it, you can guess who is your ability, but I won't say a word." As for where the money you care about comes from, you don't have to worry about it, we just steal and rob, and we will definitely fulfill our original promise. β
Yao Guangqi said: "Okay then, now let's talk about your additional conditions. I remember that you said that you were looking for Zhang Shicheng's son, don't you have any clues now? β
The young woman in yellow smiled and said, "That child was born without hair, but now one thing can be determined, the little prince's biological mother's surname is Yao," Speaking of this, the young woman suddenly asked Yao Guangqi: "By the way, what is your surname?" β
Yao Guangqi was stunned: "My mother's surname is Yao." β
The young woman in yellow couldn't stop laughing: "So you match both clues?" If you really can't find the prince when you turn around, you come back and say that you are, and we will count you as if you have found it, and give you money. β
Yao Guangqi didn't think it was funny, and said coldly: "Bring the letter, that person is not easy to find, I will find a way to send this letter." β
The young woman in yellow smiled meaningfully, took out the letter from her arms and handed it to Yao Guangqi: "Yes, the letter is too easy for you, let King Yan arrange an official at will and send it." β
Yao Guangqi's heart tightened: the other party even knew his relationship with King Yan, and the people in Peach Blossom Town were really capable, so maybe they could help themselves with other things, "I want to inquire about Lei Xianzong, do I have to give money?" β
The young woman in yellow stared at Yao Guangqi's eyes, laughed out loud, then patted Yao Guangqi on the shoulder, and then happily rejected Yao Guangqi: "The rules of Peach Blossom Town are only to help people do things, give bounties and receive commissions, and don't ask people for news." β
Yao Guangqi didn't say anything, but Li Rou suddenly interjected: "I suddenly feel that you are a bit like a person." β
The young woman in yellow turned her head to look at Li Rou: "Who is it like?" β
Li Rou deliberately stretched her voice very long: "An old man, named Jin Ruyi." β
The young woman in yellow was suddenly stunned, and he began to look at Li Rou carefully: "Although I don't know the name of this young lady. But the Jin Ruyi you are talking about has died in Beiping now? Why do you say you look like her? Where is it like? β
Li Rou spoke very softly, a bit like talking to herself: "It's not good to say, it just feels like." β
The young woman in yellow suddenly smiled, but her smile seemed to be a little stiff: "I admire you a little, your eyesight and feeling are really amazing, that's my fellow junior sister." β
Yao Guangqi suddenly realized: "Then you are also the apprentice of the golden boy and jade girl?" β
The young woman in yellow said indifferently: "Don't worry, I won't seek revenge on you, I don't have a deep relationship with my junior sister, and I'm not a person from Lei Xianzong. β
"So you admit that she sent a bounty?" Yao Guangqi said with a smile.
The young woman in yellow knew that she had gone away and stopped talking.
Leaving Peach Blossom Town, Yao Guangqi looked at a lonely horse at the entrance of the town and said, "Our carriage is gone." β
Li Rou looked at Peach Blossom Town: "I sent him away and asked him to go back to talk to Sister Linglong." β
Yao Guangqi sighed and said: "The coachman is gone, what should we do, we only have one horse and can't go fast, we have to quickly find a town to buy a horse." β
"Don't you think it's strange?" Li Rou said suddenly.
"What's strange?" Yao Guangqi asked.
Li Rou squinted her eyes and said, "I forgot about it so quickly, that room, I said it, many people come and go, and there is obviously a big dark room underground, don't you think it's strange?" Moreover, I always felt that the woman was very strange, not only like Jin Ruyi, but also an indescribable feeling. β
Although Yao Guangqi also felt the same way, he still comforted Li Rou and said: "Jianghu people, it's normal to have secrets in what they do, or how to eat this bowl of rice, forget it, let's find a town to buy horses first." β
"What horses to buy?" Li Rou asked with a glare.
Yao Guangqi couldn't cry or laugh: "Two people only have one horse, when will they get to Jiangnan?" Seeing that the Chinese New Year is coming, we can't celebrate the New Year on the road. β
Li Rou blinked: "Why can't two people ride a horse, I'm so thin, you hold me, or I hold you behind you, can't this horse move the two of us?" β
Yao Guangqi's face was a little red: "Forget it, you ride a horse, I'll walk." β
Li Rou smiled proudly: "You can do it casually, just don't be tired, I won't walk anyway." When he came to the horse, he turned to Yao Guangqi and said, "What are you doing stupidly, come here!" β
"What for?" Yao Guangqi was a little overwhelmed.
"Carry me on the horse, I can't get up by myself." Li Rou said softly.
Hangzhou.
The more it is the Spring Festival, the more good men and women will burn incense, and the incense of the Iron Buddha Temple
the more prosperous. This year's wind and rain are smooth, the people's harvest is very good, from time to time there are people from nearby villages to come to the village to burn incense and make vows, to do good, once encountering this situation, the monks of all sizes in the Iron Buddha Temple, will definitely pour out of the temple, chant the scriptures and propagate the Dharma, and entertain the believers with fasting meals.
On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, it happened to be a nearby village under the leadership of the patriarch and the chief to burn incense, and the villagers not only brought a large number of offerings of vows and sacrifices, but also brought 2,000 catties of new rice this year as an offering, and the presiding officer Kongde personally led the monks and monks to chant and pray for the villagers.
Halfway through the recitation, a white fat monk hurriedly ran over in the backyard, lying in the ear of the host Kong De and said a few words, Kong De's face changed, and then returned to calm, seeing that the people inside and outside the hall were bowing their heads and chanting piously, they pointed to the monk on the side with their toes, the monk nodded, and Kong De followed the white fat monk quietly turned the Buddha statue and went out from the back door of the main hall.
"Are you sure?" Kongde asked eagerly when he came out.
The white fat monk nodded, "I have inquired clearly, and I am sure." However, it is not sure whether it was done by Tiancheng Sect or the bad of the world's alliance envoys, and there is no conclusive evidence. β
Kong De frowned: "It seems that they want to come to the real thing, no matter who does it, the purpose is the same, it is nothing more than to drive me away, and it is a good calculation." β
The white fat monk made a gesture with a knife to go down: "Originally, the well water does not interfere with the river water, they will do it first, do you want to teach them a lesson?" β
Kong De shook his head: "We have eaten the most salt in these years, presumably they have already been red-eyed, since they dare to do it to me at this time, they are obviously prepared, there is no need to rush to fight back, tell the brothers below, be smart, steady, take a look first." rashly counterattacked, and Bao Buqi would fall into the trap of others. β
The white fat monk is called the legal name, and the common name is Li Chengliu, who is a close confidant of Zhang Dingbian who is known as the Kongde monk, and is now the helmsman of the Hangzhou branch of Leixianzong.
Li Chengliu changed into the clothes of the people, walked out of the temple through the back door, and went straight to the yamen of Hangzhou Mansion. When he arrived at the Yamen, Li Chengliu also walked through the back door, and the porter at the back door saw Li Chengliu and nodded, Li Chengliu understood and entered the Yamen without a sound.
Hangzhou prefect Ma Defa was in the study, Li Chengliu came to the door of the study, leaned on the window and listened, the woman's moaning came out faintly, Li Chengliu smiled, knocked lightly on the window frame, and stood at the door to wait, after a while, the moaning inside stopped, and after a while, a tall maid hurriedly came out from inside, saw Li Chengliu standing at the door, and ran away like a smoke.
Li Chengliu entered the study with a smile: "Master Ma, you don't pay attention to your body, there are so many maids in the house, can your body stand it?" β
Ma Defa took a sip of tea, and then let out a long sigh of satisfaction: "I have my own maintenance method, don't worry about the helm, is there anything wrong?" β
Li Chengliu immediately lowered his face: "Although you are not directly under me, after all, I am the helmsman, so you sit and talk to me?" β
As soon as Ma Defa heard that the comer was not good, he quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Please sit here, please sit here, don't be surprised, you are a little tired just now, and your tired head is confused." β
Li Chengliu sneered: "You are working your waist, and you are clamped underneath, is your head also clipped?" I'm embarrassed to ask me what's the matter, what's going on with those salt merchants? β
