Chapter Seventy-Eight: Vortex (1)
The two-storey Xuezhai inn made of red pillar lacquered tile wood is the best inn in Zhenxiwei, in addition to the merchants, only the distinguished guests come to visit, they will stay, it is not cheap here, but the shopkeeper has not seen the smile these days, and a big merchant who has made a generous move, has wrapped the second floor, and now he is just waiting.

Sun Chuanting pushed open the window and sat in front of the window to look, below was the main street of Zhenxiwei, where pedestrians were in a hurry, and the hawking was continuous......
"My lord, there is nothing strange here, there is no news yet, and there is Guo Quan, the county magistrate here, his housekeeper said that he is in poor health and can't see guests, this is the second time, I think it's better to show his identity directly......" Jia Ding said impatiently, the little sesame official, even dared to put on a shelf.
Sun Chuanting raised his hand to stop him, his eyes were not far from the official list, but he was also a practical person, and he was in poor health?
"It's not appropriate to startle the snake in this matter, this town Xiwei is also weird, but you haven't found it yet, continue to check."
Sun Chuanting also pondered, he felt the difference, but he was negligent, and when he looked back, he couldn't remember anything, he didn't have much harvest in a few days, could it be that he was not in the city?
In the side room of the county government, Wu Yi was also listening to Wu Long's report, "Sect leader, this caravan is really strange, after they came to live in the city, they were not in a hurry to explore business opportunities, on the contrary, they were inquiring about other things, should we ask?" Wu Longgang was reused, so he said very eagerly.
Wu Yi shook his head, this caravan was targeted when it came, Wu Yi had already arranged to keep an eye on passers-by, especially those related to Ningwu Mansion, their merchants were holding the official seal of Ningwu Mansion, so they were naturally targeted by everyone, and their actions were suspicious, they must be coming at him, but he couldn't be in a hurry, and he had to see who it was.
The eunuch Xia Daxuan was also suspicious, Wu Yi didn't want to attract his attention, and now he should not come forward, many things are left to others.
Li Erdou hurriedly came to report, he was staring at the county order and the residence of the chief secretary today, and he must have found a suspicious person.
Although Li Erdou is stout, but his mind is very delicate, a team of people stayed to train the guards, Wu Hu and they were sent back to Jiuniukou, there are not only the passes, but also the cattle and horses brought back, and they can't leave people, Wang Tiejun must monitor the movements of Ningwu Mansion during this time, and Wu Yi has no one in his hands, so he uses the two of them.
"Report, sect leader, the gang of merchants went to the county mansion again, but they were pushed again, and besides, someone entered the courtyard gate of the main book just now, and it is not clear what the specific identity is, do you need to be arrested?"
Contact the master bookkeeper? Sun Qicai is the head snake here, and he is also the representative of the local big households, after he issued the order of mercy to the peasants, it will definitely cause the disgust of the big households, Wu Yi also knew in his heart, and ordered Li Erdou to quietly bring people back, and he also wanted to know, how many people opposed him.
There's no way, it's all good-looking, he can't rest assured that the two of them are even grasshoppers on a rope, this Guo Quan is quite honest, and he closes his doors all day long, but this master book is still a little uneasy and lonely.
"Yo! Zhao Dongjia, why don't you say hello when you enter the city......" Li Erdou shouted with a big grin, and then the other party was also afraid, and just struggled to run, he was arrested.
The people around looked at it in surprise, they were now wearing the uniforms of the guards, which was convenient for doing things, and everyone avoided them.
But Li Erdou really didn't expect that he had caught a hard bone, and he was stunned that he didn't take a word out of his mouth, and his heart was even more annoyed.
Wu Yi didn't say anything, just watched in the dark of the prison, and couldn't help but be curious, because the traces of training on his body were too heavy, and he would even self-hypnotize to resist torture, if he didn't know a little lip language, maybe he would have to shake hands and call friends.
The other party's mouth shape is not very easy to recognize, but he determined after a few times that the name "Childless Mother", he also suddenly thought of the White Lotus Sect, so he asked Li Erdou to stop, good guy, he originally thought that the White Lotus Sect was just a civil organization, but he didn't expect that there were such means to train dead soldiers.
Wu Yi looked at this man carefully, he was very ordinary, if there was no blood on his face, he was afraid that no one would notice it if he was thrown on the street, and he didn't continue to ask at this moment, and said directly to Li Erdou: "He has a hard mouth, it's hard to pry it open, go and invite the master bookkeeper to me!" ā
The hanging person also raised his head and stared at Wu Yi, Wu Yi smiled, there is still a shadow of the White Lotus Sect in this matter, then you have to have a good time, I didn't expect it to be more and more lively here, there are secret agents, and the White Lotus Sect, who else will there be?
Sun Qi came to the prison with weak feet, and as soon as he saw this person, he immediately said, "Da Lang, this ...... Alas...... Don't hide it from Da Lang, this person is from Xinzhuang, they came for Da Lang's mercy order, and wanted to inquire about the news from me, but I also refused. ā
Wu Yi smiled but said nothing, and Li Erdou continued: "This person has been in the door since noon, and he came out for about an hour. ā
Sun Qicai was also sweating, it turned out that they had been staring at it for a long time, and hurriedly said it all.
It turns out that these rich and big households have been alarmed by the order of mercy to farmers, after all, the taxes are required to be paid by those poor ghosts, and now that they have been reduced so much, what will they do if they can't make up the amount?
Whoever has more food will of course have to trouble someone, so they also found Sun Qi to ventilate, hoping to discuss this matter with the county commander.
Sun Qicai said very vaguely, Wu Yi believed that they were definitely not so easy to speak, but I was afraid that there were still means.
Sun Qicai was also completely soft at the moment, he originally supported this matter, after all, he didn't want to be held by Wu Dalang, so he wanted to get rid of Wu Dalang, but now that the matter is exposed, he just wants to take himself out.
"Xinzhuang?"
"Yes, Li You from Xinzhuang is a big local household." Sun Qi had no choice but to hide it, and told everything he knew.
Wu Yi also tried many times, and found that this Sun Qi only knew one of them, and I was afraid that he didn't know their true identity, so he also asked tentatively, "Brother Sun, do you know about the White Lotus Sect?" ā
"Da Lang refers to the Smelling Fragrance Sect more than ten years ago?" Sun Qi didn't know much.
"It's okay, just ask casually, Brother Sun is frightened, you and I are in the same boat, I believe Brother Sun will not do anything wrong, please go back." Wu Yi didn't deal with him, he just didn't want to alarm those people outside.
Sun Qi wiped the sweat from his head, as if it was not a prison and a palace of the king of Hades, and hurried home and closed the door.
"It seems that we can't take it lightly. Li Erdou went to inform Wu Hu to bring the people of the third team over, and in the future, it should be loose on the outside and tight on the inside, go. "Wu Yi is not in a bad mood, because whether it is the smell of the fragrance or the white lotus that jumps out now, it may also be an opportunity.
Subsequently, the garrison's camp was also placed under martial law, and no one was allowed to approach it.
Their every move was known to Sun Chuanting, and Sun Chuanting was also strange, why did the other party suddenly show their feet when they got nothing?
The east and west gates have relaxed their vigilance, the north and the south have been strengthened, and the special military camps are even more heavily guarded, and no one is allowed to approach, that is, to tell others that there is an ulterior secret here, and the other party will not be so stupid at all, this is not a conspiracy, it is a conspiracy.
Wu Yi also walked on the street in his usual clothes, now the water surface is calm, but there are mixed fish and dragons below, and he also wants to see if there are any big fish in the town's Xiwei.
There was no one else around him, he just came out by himself, confident that the short gun and dagger were enough for self-defense, so he swaggered down the street, looking east and west, just like an idle boy, he sat down to drink tea when he was tired.
Suddenly, there was chaos in the market, and a cow was shocked, and Wuyi stood up quietly, it seemed that someone couldn't wait.
The ox cart was heavy, and it was covered with wood, and it went on a rampage and injured a few people all the way before it was finally subdued, and the shopkeeper was being grabbed by the collar to ask for compensation.
There were two obvious fractures, and they were not light, Wu Yi found that it should be an accident, and he followed curiously.
The shopkeeper did not repay the debt, gave the compensation money, and then arranged for his family to go to treatment.
"Hurry up and send it to Chunhetang, the doctor there is the best."
"It's better to send it to Wang Zhuang, please senior brother, Chunhetang is expensive to die, not to mention, it doesn't work."
"Yes, Senior Brother is stronger."
ā¦ā¦
Because of this, many people quarreled, Wu Yi wrote down his name, and followed the family to Chunhetang.
This is a small private clinic that combines a clinic and a pharmacy, but there is a different world in the backyard, there are many girls of all colors wearing tulle, and one of them is a beautiful girl in white who is being treated, first by bone.
"Why are you still watching? Don't come and hold it yet! The other party anxiously reprimanded Wu Yi and regarded him as the patient's family, but now the patient is struggling in pain and can't hold it down.
"Oh? Oh! Wu Yi was stunned for a moment, accepted it happily, and held down the man on the couch and couldn't move.
The action just now made this woman's forehead sweat, the tulle was also looming, her red lips and nose, and her appearance was very beautiful.
"Hee hee ......" The girl assisting on the side suddenly laughed, interrupting Wu Yi's gaze, Wu Yi also retracted his eyes in embarrassment, the girl with white characters was not affected, and the wooden frame was fixed with clever means, and a layer of black ointment was touched on the wound.
Traditional Chinese medicine, Wuyi once again shines in the eye.
"Okay, don't get wet, don't struggle, don't touch the injury, go to the front and grab the medicine, and it will heal in two months." The woman in white said softly, a little cold, but not a thousand miles away.
Wu Yi nodded, but he didn't pay, because he was well-dressed, so he was treated as the master.
"Senior sister, this disciple stared at you just now, and he was about to drool." The little girl on the side didn't make a sound, but Wuyi could still hear it, which embarrassed Wuyi.
"Ahem...... I'm not curious, so don't leave it at that. Wu Yi saw that the woman in white had a bad face, so he hurriedly left.
Big harvest, this woman has superb medical skills, he lacks such manpower the most, there is no military doctor in the army, how can the soldiers rest assured.
