Chapter 28 Collect minced meat from house to house

The two followed behind Zhao Wu and soon came to the back hall. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Zhao Wu walked straight to the county master's bedroom, and was so frightened that Li Mo hurriedly pulled him, "Didn't you say that you would find a good job?" Where are you going? ”

Zhao Wu glanced at Li Mo sympathetically, "Look at you stupid, I guess you even forgot about the county magistrate concurrently serving as a servant!" ”

Li Mo was absolutely down, sure enough, the forest was big and there were all kinds of birds, and he had never heard of the county master working part-time!

"Wu'er, I really forgot. So what, our lord is doing this because of interest, right? ”

Zhao Wu waved his hand, "Where!" Our county master said that this is called a capable person who works hard. Although there are not many monthly salaries, it is enough for our seventh aunt to buy flowers to wear. ”

Li Mo simply admired the five-body throw, looking at the gentleman's dignified appearance of the county master, he didn't dare to associate him with the word "squandering".

Zhao Wu knocked on the door, and after a long time, a lazy response came from the house, "What's the matter?" ”

"Lord Qiyu, some people found a finger bone suspected to be a human hand in the minced meat they bought." Zhao Wulang reported.

"Huh?" There was a faint inquiry from inside the house, "Have you brought the minced meat?" ”

"My lord, my subordinates have brought the people to the backyard and are waiting outside the door at the moment."

After Zhao Wu's words were finished, the sound of Suo Suo getting dressed sounded in the room. After a while, the carved wooden door was pushed open, and the county magistrate walked out with a somewhat pale face, "I wanted to take a nap." What about things? ”

Zhao Wu pointed to the small wooden basket that Feng Sanniang was carrying in his hand, "My lord, it's in that basket." ”

The county magistrate glanced casually, turned around and walked towards the side courtyard on the right, "Come with me." ”

Along the way, Feng Sanniang's mouth was not idle, and she emphatically told how she was misled by the neighbors, and then followed the trend to buy this piece of minced meat mixed with finger bones.

Several people followed the county magistrate to the side courtyard and walked into a hall in the middle.

There were a few dilapidated tables and chairs in the room, and on the tables were miscellaneous scissors, needles and threads.

Feng Sanniang followed the instructions of the county magistrate, put the minced meat in the basket on the table, and the rest of her mind was all about staring at the county magistrate's handsome face.

Li Mo also stared at the county master a little nervously, and he could immediately see how the ancient works were identified.

Although the one in front of him is a temporary cameo by the county magistrate. But without two brushes, no one would dare to do the work blindly!

The county magistrate took a rough look at the minced meat piled on the lotus leaves, took out a wooden tweezer, picked out the bone that seemed to be a finger, and put it in the semi-shallow disk on the side.

Then he picked up a blue porcelain vase, poured some unknown liquid into the disk containing the bone, and washed the bone unhurriedly.

"My lord," Li Mo couldn't help but point to the pile of minced meat and asked, "Are these human flesh or pork?" ”

The county magistrate stopped washing and looked up at Li Mo, "I don't know." ”

Well, Li Mo shrugged his shoulders mockingly.

It seems that his previous speculation was wrong, and the county magistrate obviously took up the job just for fun.

His small movements were all seen by the county magistrate, and the county magistrate added slowly, "There is no difference between minced pork and human meat, you can only try it unless you try it yourself." ”

Li Mo sweated, sure enough, those who can be servants are not ordinary people, this taste is not ordinary!

The bone had been washed clean in the disk, and there was no blood at all, and it looked more like a human phalange.

Even the ring on the phalanges is very clearly washed, it is a red gold chrysanthemum ring, which should be worth a lot of money.

The county magistrate picked up the phalanx with tweezers and looked at it for a while, "This phalanx has no nails, it should be the middle or the last one, so it didn't accidentally fall into these minced meats." ”

As he spoke, he turned and commanded, "You two quickly take this woman to the houses of the people who bought minced meat, and say that someone has reported that the meat is poisonous, and that all the meat must be confiscated without any leakage." ”

"Yes, sir!" Zhao Wu and Li Mo said in unison.

"Also," the county magistrate looked at Feng Sanniang on the side and said, "Before the matter is decided, I hope you don't make a noise, so as not to startle the snake." ”

Feng Sanniang hurriedly nodded, "County master, don't worry!" I, Feng Sanniang, have never been a person who likes to play with right and wrong, and I promise not to show half a sentence! ”

"Yes, that's very good. Go down, all of you. Ben has to study these things again. ”

The county magistrate issued an eviction order, and Li Mo and Zhao Wu retreated clearly.

Stepping out of the slightly sour and astringent house, Li Mo took a deep breath of the fresh air outside, and half-jokingly teased, "Fortunately, we left, if it's late, I'm afraid I'm going to suffocate inside." There is a sour and astringent smell in the room, why is this smell? ”

Zhao Wu also sighed with a long sigh of relief, "Who said it wasn't, the last thing I wanted to come to was here." Those sour and astringent tastes, I heard that they were made by the old man fumigating white bones. The old man always likes to carry people behind his back, for fear that others will steal from him. Let's get down to business. ”

Li Mo shuddered, and couldn't help but pop up in his mind the picture of the county lord carrying people behind his back and devouring those minced meats.

Two handfuls of sour water ran in his stomach and he barely pressed it down. Quickly changed the topic, and said to Feng Sanniang beside him, "Sanniang, please lead us to find those neighbors who sell meat with you, I hope they haven't had time to eat yet." ”

"Yes, yes, hurry, if you really eat it, you will be guilty. I've heard that if you eat human flesh, your eyes turn red. Then, they will desperately want to eat human flesh for the second or third time, which is terrible! Feng Sanniang quickened her pace as she spoke, "The two messengers will come with me, and the women will lead you to collect the minced meat." ”

"Well, you must remember the master's instructions, and don't startle the snake." Zhao Wusheng was afraid that Feng Sanniang would publicize it.

"Don't worry, the women will never leak half a word!"

Li Mo and Zhao Wu followed Feng Sanniang for an afternoon, and finally collected all the minced meat that had been sold.

Hearing that the meat they bought was poisonous, the people scolded the black-hearted vendors, saying that they would only go to time-honored stores to buy things in the future, and they would no longer be greedy for cheap and suffer big losses.

With a lot of effort, Li Mo and Zhao Wu finally carried all the minced meat back to the yamen.

In the backyard, the county magistrate leaned idly on the reclining chair, didn't even look at the confiscated minced meat, and lost his words lightly, "Throw it into the lotus pond." ”

Li Mo didn't expect the county master to be so sloppy, but he and Zhao Wu had worked hard to collect it, how could they say that they would throw it away! What if there is evidence in it?
