Chapter 498: Finding out the news
Shen Kang hesitated and entered the door, Wang Lucao raised his eyes and asked him, "What do you think?" ”
Shen Kang shook his head and said, "Brother Zeng, are there bandits in the Tushan area?" ”
Wei Wuyi nodded and said: "I have indeed heard that there is a group of thieves who occupy the mountain as the king and live by robbing the road, and this group of people lives in the mountains, and they are haunted, and the government has not succeeded in encircling and suppressing them several times." ”
Shen Kang asked, "Are they robbing the road, have they disturbed the nearby villages?" ”
Wei Wuyi shook his head hesitantly: "I haven't heard of this. ”
Shen Kang turned his head to look at Wang Lucao and said, "Brother Wang, this matter is confusing. ”
There was a thick fog blocking Shen Kang's eyes, and Shen Kang was dragging a thread in his hand, but he couldn't find the direction, which made him doubt everything around him.
A hundred-year-old nunnery, a group of mysterious bandits, they have been safe and sound, but yesterday, more than a dozen nuns died. He turned his eyes to the thick wooden carved bed, where the person was breathing steadily, and it was dimly impossible to see who it was.
"Shen San, this thing is weird, I vaguely feel that it seems to have something to do with us."
Shen Kang pursed his lips and said, "The top priority is to find Master Jingyue and wait for the movement of the government." ”
Wang Lucao nodded: "Yes." ”
Wei Wuru walked out of the Fuhua Building and went straight to the Fengyang Mansion.
It is a complex of buildings that occupies an entire block of buildings, and in a square enclosed circle, a network of checkered streets crisscrossed by neat street markets due south and north. Such a solemn environment makes people unconsciously lower their heads and bend down.
Wei Wuyi used to follow Zhang Ge, and he was also a person who went in and out of the public gate all day long, and he couldn't understand the twists and turns in the yamen the most.
If you want to inquire about the news, if you go to ask someone, they will naturally not tell you, and maybe they will be suspicious of him, and if you can't find out, you will be interrogated.
He walked straight to the door of the government office, but he didn't pause, just looked at the official at the door, and walked straight over.
At this time, it is the time of the year, that is, it is almost the time for the officials to change shifts and fight the tooth sacrifice. Although the average person has two meals a day, people who are able to do heavy physical labor will also cushion their stomachs at noon.
The shift change time of the officials is short, usually one shift per hour, one hour, which is enough for him to inquire about the news.
He turned the corner and came to the small stall around the corner, which sold Vortex dry noodles.
The old man who sold noodles shouted while stretching the noodles: "In Wuyang County, Lao Tzu's hometown, there is a snack that is not ordinary,
The noodles are boiled in a large iron pot, and the bean sprouts are not fresh. Serve yourself a pot of hot soup, plus two egg buns; Grab the dog meat by hand, and the noodle soup is not enough to add casually. Gobble, don't be afraid of the heat! Born sweaty, your heart is comfortable. Gobble, don't be afraid of the heat! Born sweaty, your heart is comfortable. Walking through the masters, persuade you to come to the bowl of dry noodles, the delicacies of the mountains and seas are incomparable, and I feel that I have passed the living immortals. A bowl when you are drunk, a bowl when you are thirsty; If you are hungry and tired, you will have a bowl, and if you are annoyed, you will have a bowl; A bowl of buckle noodles and a body of gall, a body is easy to keep safe! ”
The local dialect of Fengyang Mansion was still difficult for Wei Wuyi to understand, he just looked at the many tables and chairs in this stall, and smelled the fragrance wafting from this stall in the air, so he knew that this small stall must have a lot of customers.
"Yo, guest officer, come to a bowl of noodles?" The old man smiled and stood behind the big iron pot and asked with a smile.
Wei Wuyi replied with a smile: "I can smell the fragrance from my father-in-law's stall from afar, come and come to the bowl of noodles!" ”
"Haha!" The old man smiled proudly, and while agreeing, he put a lump of noodles into the pot, and then said: "As soon as the guest officer heard the accent, he knew that it was brought by the Runing Mansion, so it is right for you to come to me to eat noodles!" When I came to Fengyang Mansion and didn't eat my bowl of noodles, there was no difference between not being here and not being here. ”
Wei Wuyi smiled and asked: "My husband really likes to joke, listen to what you mean, your stall is going to sell a lot of noodles a day, right?" ”
While talking, the noodles in the cauldron have been cooked, a large bowl is filled with a small half bowl of bean sprouts, the noodles are fished out of such a cover, and then some leeks are added, and the thick and spicy seeds fried with nutmeg, garlic, ginger, and peppercorns are splashed.
"It smells so good!" Wei Wuyi couldn't help but hurriedly wiped his chopsticks with his sleeve and stirred up the noodles.
There are few people in this kung fu stall, Wei Wusu is a foreigner, for the old man, it is a very fresh existence, and this old man originally likes to chat with people, in the words of the locals, it is called "quack".
He stood aside and picked up two cloves of garlic, handed them to Wei Wuyi, and said with a smile: "Eat two bites of garlic." ”
"Thank you, sir."
The old man smiled and asked, "What did the guest officer do when he came to Fengyang Mansion?" It doesn't look like a relative. ”
Wei Wuyi smiled and said, "I came with the master's house." ”
The old man nodded clearly: "Aha, you must have come to see our Flower Drum Lantern Festival, right?" ”
Wei Wuyi smiled, didn't answer, pulled two mouthfuls of noodles, nibbled on a head of garlic, and said with a smile: "It's really fragrant, it's strong enough." ”
The old man said triumphantly: "That's natural, it's not the old man who blows, the official in the gate of the Fengyang Mansion, if he doesn't come here to eat a bowl of noodles one day, he will be uncomfortable." ”
When Wei Wushu heard this, he was in the middle of it, and said with a smile: "My husband has the ability, let's have another bowl of noodles." ”
"I'll do it." The old man was shocked for a moment and said, "The guest officer has such a big appetite!" The words are over, the words are over. ”
It means "Oh my god you have such a big appetite, amazing, amazing." ”
Wei Wuyi couldn't understand the local dialect, but he could understand his tone, guessing the general meaning, smiled, and didn't answer.
The old man turned his head to go below, and a few soap officials came faintly from the corner of the street in front of him.
"Old bastard! Let's have five bowls of noodles! The soapman came over and sat down at the table beside him.
The old man smiled and said, "Wait a minute, this is coming!" ”
The soap officials smiled and turned their heads to look at Wei Wuxuan.
In fact, it is no wonder that they will go to see Wei Wuyi, this Wei Wuyi is taller than ordinary people, strong and strong, at a glance, he is a practicing family, and he eats alone, which naturally attracts people's attention.
Wei Wuyi met their gaze, arched his hand, stood up, and said with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen. ”
What is a soap officer, a servant, a servant. In the Ming Dynasty at that time, the descendants of these people were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, which shows that the status of these people was actually very low.
But human nature is like this, the more lowly people are, the more they like to be praised. What these people like to hear the most is the word "master".
A soap officer smiled, wanting to show some authority, and deliberately frowned and asked, "Where are you from?" ”
Wei Wuyi replied respectfully: "People in the Lower Runing Mansion, when you first arrive in Guibao Land, please also ask the officials for advice." ”
"Advice?" The soapman smiled and said, "You're welcome." ”
