In the early morning of the next day, on a street in the city of Hangzhou not far from the palace of the prince of Nanwang.

Without a cliff, Shi Zhixuan and Richard sat on the second floor of a restaurant called Chunfeng Building, their eyes looking at the street below. Xiao Er, who walked by, looked at the three of them from time to time, his eyes were extremely puzzled.

As soon as the restaurant opened, the three of them came, ordered a few dishes and a pot of wine, and sat until now, but the dishes on the table did not move a single chopstick, and they didn't know why they came here.

More than an hour later, I saw that in the alley opposite Chunfeng Tower, a middle-aged man holding a stick of sugar gourd turned out of the alley, glanced left and right, walked to the diagonal opposite side of Chunfeng Tower, leaned against the wall and began to shout.

"Sugar gourd ~ delicious sugar gourd!"

"That's him!"

Richard's eyes froze, and he was about to get up and walk towards the stairs. Wu Yazi stretched out his hand and pressed him, turned his head and said in a loud voice: "Those who sell sugar gourds, please come up, we want to buy sugar gourds." ”

The middle-aged man looked up at the second floor and said with a smile: "Guy officer!" I'm coming! ”

As he spoke, he walked towards Chunfeng Tower with a sugar gourd. went up to the second floor and came to the table of the three Richards, and he said with a smile: "Three masters, do you want hawthorn or pear?" These days are windy, many people have coughs, and pears can just stop coughing. ”

Wu Yazi took out a silver ingot and put it on the table, and whispered to the middle-aged man, "You sit down, I have a few questions for you." When you have finished answering, I will say that you have bought all the sugar gourds, and the money is yours. ”

The middle-aged man's eyes straightened when he saw the silver, and this ingot of silver could be worth his monthly income to say the least! He swallowed his saliva, hurriedly sat down and said with a smile: "Master, what do you want to ask, just ask, what I know and don't know, what I can say and what I can't say, I will tell you everything!" ”

Wu Yazi glanced at Richard. Richard coughed lightly and said, "From May 16 to the first day of June last month, a customer came every day and bought all your sugar gourds, do you remember?" ”

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately said, "Remember, why don't you remember?" That little lady is the most generous guest I have seen selling sugar gourds for more than ten years, and every day as soon as I come out, she is waiting at the door of this Chunfeng Building, and she buys all my sugar gourds without asking the price. If there were a few more of these guests, my life would be better. ”

As he spoke, he suddenly showed a look of vigilance and said, "Aren't the three of you the adults in the little lady's family?" The third master clearly saw that although she never asked the price, I definitely didn't deliberately sell her more expensive and charge her more money. ”

Richard said softly, "You don't have to worry, we're not here for this. Then why didn't she come to you to buy sugar gourds later? ”

A trace of anger immediately appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and he was a little dissatisfied: "It's not that there is an unruly one on the second day of the sixth month!" ”

Hearing this, Richard's hearts moved at the same time, "Don't follow the rules? ”

The middle-aged man said indignantly: "Yes, I remember that on the day of the second or third day of junior high school, there was suddenly a sugar gourd seller next to Chunfeng Tower." The tone of shouting was not small, saying that his sugar gourd was the most delicious sugar gourd in Hangzhou, and the little lady was attracted to him and bought his sugar gourd. But who in Hangzhou City doesn't know that the sugar gourd of my sugar string poplar is the best! ”

Wu Yazi immediately asked, "What does that person look like?" ”

"I remember that the man was very strong, with a beard around his mouth, a face full of flesh, dressed in black, bald head, and a scar on his face, and from this point to this, it was very scary."

As he spoke, Sugar String Yang stretched out his hand and scratched a line on his face, saying, "This person is not a good person at first glance, maybe he was just released from prison." ”

The three of Richard were silent, and after a long while, Wuyazi waved his hand and said, "This silver is yours, leave the sugar gourd and you can go." ”

Sugar String Yang happily responded, leaving Sugar Gourd to take the silver and turn away. When he climbed down the stairs, Wu Yazi rubbed his eyebrows, and said in a somewhat helpless tone: "Senior sister, she looks like she has been trapped." ”

As he spoke, Wu Yazi stretched out his hand on the table and quickly began to draw, his fingers were like the sharpest carving knife, and he quickly drew a face on the table. I saw that this face was full of flesh, beard, and a scar on the face, just as Tang String Yang described.

Richard took out his pen and ink, stretched the face, and said; "I'll go to the Blue Dragon Club and ask them to investigate this person's identity."

Wu Yazi nodded and sighed lightly: "Brother Shi and I will go back to the Nanwang Shizi's Mansion and ask the Shizi to post a notice outside the city. Now we can only find a needle in a haystack. ”

A few days later, in the palace of the prince of the south.

The steward hurriedly ran into Richard's room and said respectfully: "Ximen Shaoxia, there is a girl named Hua Yudie outside the mansion who said she wants to see you." ”

Richard was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately stood up and Ling Bo involuntarily carried it up, like a ghost rushing out of the room, and one jumped over the wall and rushed towards the gate of the Southern Prince's Mansion.

When she came to the gate of the Nanwang Shizi's Mansion, she saw Hua Yudie outside the door, and when she saw Richard, she immediately stepped forward with a happy look and hugged Richard's arm, like a little girl who saw her sweetheart.

While holding Richard's arm, she whispered in Richard's ear: "Childe, the identity of that person is already known." It is Li Dayuan, the head of the Li family of the 36 caves and 72 islands under the Vulture Palace. ”

"Thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands under the Vulture Palace?"

With a buzz in Richard's mind, he suddenly thought of a possibility, broke free from Hua Yudie's embrace and walked quickly into the mansion of the prince of Nanwang, and walked towards the room without cliffs.

Seeing this, Hua Yudie pursed her lips and turned to leave. The steward standing in front of the Nanwang Shizi's Mansion looked at this scene and muttered in a low voice: "I didn't expect that Ximen Shaoxia would not be able to coax the girl......

When he came to Wu Yazi's room, the anxious Richard pushed the door and entered, and said loudly to Wu Yazi who was sitting on the bed: "Master, the identity of that person is known." ”

Wu Yazi stood up all of a sudden, and said urgently, "Who is it?" ”

"Li Dayuan, the head of the Li family on the Thirty-six Caves and Seventy-two Islands under the Vulture Palace, the Coconut Flower Island. Master, did the master give them the latest life and death talisman antidote? ”

Wu Yazi hesitated: "This... I've never asked about your uncle, and I don't know much about it. Guagua, what do you mean? ”

Richard smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle Shi is not now a weak period of self-esteem. Apart from this possibility, I can't think of anything else that might make this rabble of dogs jump over the wall and be so desperate to find Uncle Shi and capture her. “
