Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Green Snake Sheds by the Qingxi Bridge
"Master, don't you want to take a closer look?" Li Mo asked unwillingly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The county magistrate raised his eyes and glanced at Li Mo, and said slowly, "These meats have already been cut into minced meat, and I can't see anything." I've already smelled it, sir, except for the bag I brought in the morning, which did have amputated finger bones, these are all pork, pour it out! ”
Can you smell all this meat by smell alone? Whether others believe it or not, Li Mo doesn't believe it anyway.
But who made the family a county master, right, even if he was unhappy in his heart, Li Mo had to obediently throw all the confiscated minced meat into the lotus pond.
After throwing more than half a basket of minced meat, the lotus pond splashed for a while, causing layers of ripples.
Without waiting for Li Mo and Zhao Wu to take a breath, they ran into the front yard and said breathlessly, "Master, I found out that the ring was indeed made by Tian Ji Gold Shop." Their shopkeeper said that this chrysanthemum ring was deliberately customized by the customer, so he only made this one. ”
"Well," the county magistrate nodded, "who ordered it?" ”
The shopkeeper of Tian Ji said that this ring was specially ordered by the rice merchant next door to him, and said that it was to be given to Liu Xia, the top brand of Nuanxiang Pavilion. And this rice merchant has not appeared for two days. ”
The county magistrate got up from the recliner, paced back and forth with his hands behind his back for a few steps, and suddenly turned around and smiled, "Little ones, how about I give you a chance to eat flower wine, sir?" ”
In Li Mo's eyes, the county magistrate is very good-looking. But his smile at this time was like a cunning fox.
But if you can eat free flower wine openly, I'm afraid that a fool won't go.
Immediately, Li Mo, Zhao Wu and the official who had just come back looked at each other ambiguously and smiled.
But everyone was embarrassed to respond to this, and they were all waiting for the county magistrate to name him.
According to the old rules, the county magistrate casually pointed his finger, "Since it is this clue you found, then you should go." ”
The great benefit fell on his head, and the yacha who tracked down the golden ring was so happy that his eyebrows were raised, and he arched his hand, "Yes, sir!" ”
Li Mo and Zhao Wu hated it so much, such a good opportunity, it was really a bit of a shame to let others take the lead!
Yacha, who had just received the benefit, turned around happily to leave, but was stopped by the county master again, "Wait! Let's talk about it first, Master Ben will only reimburse one penny, which is enough for you to drink two pots of tea in the Nuan Xiang Pavilion. Don't forget what you're doing! ”
The two raised eyebrows of the Yacha who said this instantly drooped, and he said weakly, "Yes, master." ”
Li Mo and Zhao Wu hurriedly lowered their heads and held back their laughter, just said, how can there be such a cheap thing! If it's just for a cup of tea, what kind of warm fragrance pavilion do you go to, just enter the restaurant, and the tea of twenty or thirty Wen is absolutely full!
As soon as they laughed at others in their hearts, the county magistrate followed suit, "You two are idle, so go to the street to visit and see if you can find this meat seller." After all, there are so many people on the street, what if you know. ”
Gotcha, laugh at others! Li Mo and Zhao Wu hurriedly answered and walked out of the yamen side by side.
It was in the evening, and Qinglong Street was still full of people, and the people buying food and drinking were not lively.
Seeing Li Mo and Zhao Wu coming from a distance, the vendors selling things and the customers who bought things temporarily put down their work and asked one after another.
"Uncle, I heard that those pork were poisoned?"
"No, I've heard that there was a murder case. By the way, poor master, does the murderer have eyebrows? ”
"Go ahead, I've heard that the murderer chopped people up and mixed them into pork to sell!"
"Oh my God! I think my family still doesn't want to buy pork recently, in case I buy something mixed with human flesh, what a mess! ”
"Bang!" Zhao Wu cleared his throat and said loudly, "Neighbors, don't listen to rumors. ”
After speaking, Zhao Wu carried Li Mo on his shoulder, and asked him to hurry up and say a few words, so as not to make the matter even more outrageous.
Li Mo understood, "That's right! Neighbors, we must believe in the yamen, believe in the county lord, and insist on not spreading rumors or believing rumors! Do not promote the spread and spread of rumors, be the maintainer of the healthy environment of Zhenjiang City, and actively report false rumors when they are discovered. Anyone who spreads rumors can get a free seven-day tour package of the cell, including food and lodging! ”
Although everyone didn't understand what Li Mo said, for the sake of what he said for such a long time, and the seven-day tour of the cell with board and lodging in the back sentence was too generous, and no one on the list wanted to go.
Therefore, everyone reluctantly slapped their hands against their will, and praised Li Mo for what he said was very profound and connotative.
However, no matter where you go, there will always be people who don't know how to look at people's faces.
No, as soon as those disobedient slaps fell, a black, rough and silly man opened his mouth angrily, "Poor master, this life case is a life case!" Why do you want to cover and hide, so that we will talk and suspect in private. It's better to let us all participate, in case we find any useful clues. ”
What this benevolent brother said was reasonable, so that Li Mo almost wanted to raise his hands in agreement.
Therefore, it can be seen that he is not as experienced as Zhao Wu in dealing with these things.
No, Zhao Wu immediately blocked back, "The yamen hasn't announced what is going on, so you know that there is a murder case?" Say, is it a party or a conspiracy?! ”
These words were extremely sharp, so bluffing that the black and stupid man immediately stopped talking, patted his chest and promised, "Poor master, my ancestors are honest people for eight generations, and they have absolutely nothing to do with this matter." What I said is absolutely true and credible, yesterday I was fishing on the edge of the clear stream, and I saw a big cyan python swimming in the water! The serpent was three times as thick as my waist! I was so scared that I didn't even want the hook, and I crawled home with a rolling belt. ”
This man gestured while talking, and his mouth was splashing with foam, painting and coloring.
As soon as he finished speaking, someone booed him, "Bragging doesn't make drafts!" Just the narrow canal in Qingxi, can you hide such a thick green snake? Don't be dreaming! ”
"That's it, the python that is still blue, it's the same as the real thing. I've even had a drink with the basilis, haha! ”
The man didn't believe everyone, and he was so anxious that he stomped his feet, "Really! I really saw it with my own eyes! It's right next to the Qingxi Bridge, where there is also the snake shed by the green snake! I don't believe I'll lead you to see it! ”
"Hearing you say this, hey, I suddenly remembered that the guy who sold meat this morning seems to mean that his family lives in Yujiaqiao, not far from Qingxi Bridge!" Someone in the crowd said so.
"Let's go, let's take a look!" Li Mo and Zhao Wu instantly decided to take a look, and there were many idlers behind them, all of whom were not too big to see the excitement.
