Chapter 220: Thinking
Back at the scene, Xu Feilong searched the neighborhood again, still disappointed. www.biquge.info It was too dark to find traces on the ground, and of course there were no traces of the fight, so Xu Feilong ran to Fucheng, hoping to find some suspicious clues.
When I arrived at the dock, it was already the second half of the night, but some people could still be seen on the pier, moving like ghosts, Xu Feilong flashed to a broken ship resting on the shore for overhaul, and found a middle-aged drunkard who was about to get drunk.
The drunkard half lay down under the timber stacked next to the boat, holding the wine gourd in one hand, looking for peanuts in his coat pocket with the other hand to drink, throwing an entrance, chewing and singing vaguely: "In February, the dragon raises its head, and the pretty girl dresses up and goes to the flower building......"
Xu Feilong sat down beside the drunkard, put down the heavy package, and unceremoniously snatched the drunkard's wine gourd and said, "The seeer has a share, it's not interesting to drink too much alone?" Not! The wine seems to be good......"
"Oops! How did you mess around? The drunkard screamed, stretched out his hand and twisted to grab the wine gourd, and the peanuts in his pocket spilled all over the ground.
"Slow down, slow down."
Xu Feilong pushed the drunkard's hand away and raised the wine gourd high: "Don't be so stingy. There is wine and meat, and everyone is a friend......"
"The ghost and you are friends." The drunkard stood up and grabbed the gourd: "Bring it, or I'll beat you to death." ”
Xu Feilong raised the wine gourd aside, supported the drunkard's waist and abdomen with one hand and pushed it outward, and the drunkard couldn't even get closer.
"You want to take it back? No way. Xu Feilong said with a smile: "In this way, tell me some news, and I will send you ten taels of silver to buy wine to drink." Dude, ten taels of silver can make you drink for ten days and a half months. ”
"What? Ten taels of silver? The drunkard's wine was halfway awake and no longer struggling: "Are you serious?" ”
Xu Feilong withdrew his hand, took out a silver ingot, held it up to the tip of the drunkard's nose and said, "Lick it with your tongue, the silver is guaranteed to be fake." ”
The drunkard replied with action, reached out and grabbed it, grabbed Xu Feilong's big fist that held the solid silver, and desperately grabbed it with all his strength.
"Tell me something, and the money will be yours soon." Xu Feilong said unhurriedly: "If you want to grab it, you can't do it." ”
"What news do you want?" The drunkard asked.
"I'm looking for the most well-informed person on the docks."
"Hell! I'm a bag on the dock to inquire. The drunkard patted his chest and said, "You can go and ask which corner of the mouse doesn't know that I'm a drunken fairy?" Which gang of thieves can hide from me? ”
"I don't ask about stealing chickens and dogs. I want news of the dragon. ”
"News of the dragon? No kidding. ”
"Am I joking? The silver will be given to you first, and ten taels of silver is not a joke. Do you think it's a joke? Xu Feilong stuffed the silver into the hands of the wine fairy.
The wine fairy really put the silver in his mouth and bit and licked it, and said, "Ha! It's real silver, where did you get it? ”
"You're going to rob it and show me? Dude, you have the silver, where's the news? ”
"You mean ......"
"Don't say you don't know about the Mixed River Dragon, right?"
With a pop, the drunkard was startled, and the silver fell into the dust, and the wine woke up more than half. As soon as you fight a cold war, you will turn around and run.
Xu Feilong stretched out his legs, the drunkard lay down, was dragged back by Xu Feilong, held his mouth and said in a deep voice: "Get money from people and eliminate disasters with people, do you want to play tricks?" Well, I'm going to pull out your lazy tendons, lest you be a bragging and bluffing money. ”
The drunkard was grabbed by the neck. The mouth is propped up. After struggling for a long time, he couldn't stand up, and whispered in horror: "No...... Don't push it, I'm ...... I ......"
"Wine fairy. Remember what happened to the mixed river dragon, right? Xu Feilong asked.
"I ...... I don't know, I ...... Didn't take your money......"
"You took it, do you think it's useful to play tricks in this situation?" Xu Feilong grabbed the knot of the drunkard's hair: "If you don't know, I will leave you to go down the river to feed Wang Ba, believe it or not." ”
"You...... You ......"
"Is the mixed river dragon gone? When did you get on board? ”
"You're better than me, I can't help you, kill me if you want to. I won't say. The words of the wine fairy were not drunk at all: "If I tell you, I will die, anyway, I will die, I would rather die cleanly." ”
"Then you're going to die." Xu Feilong worked his hands.
The wine fairy gave up the struggle in Xu Feilong's hands, and simply accepted his fate! This kind of person is afraid of dirty hands when he kills it, Xu Feilong simply let it go, and said with a wry smile: "You guy is very good at mixing in the rivers and lakes, and he should live a long life." Do you know how to spend the ten taels of silver? ”
"Yes, yes." The wine fairy lay on the ground and rubbed his neck and head, grinning: "I'm very careful. Hide it for a month and a half first, wait for the mixed river dragon to leave, and then secretly change it to broken silver to buy wine and drink it sporadically, no one can find out the source, thank you! Hey! What about people? ”
Xu Feilong has already left, Xu Feilong has already obtained the information he wants to know, and the wine fairy has actually inadvertently revealed that the mixed river dragon has not yet left, that is to say, he is likely to hide the four people in the surrounding place and did not take them away. As for why they didn't evacuate and stay away from here, there may be another reason.
People and land are unfamiliar, and at night, looking for clues is like looking for a needle in a haystack, Xu Feilong returned to Wuli Pavilion, got into it and prepared to sleep first before speaking, at dawn, Xu Feilong began to search the scene carefully, hoping to find some clues.
There have been travelers on the official road, coming and going from the south to the north in a hurry.
Xu Feilong lives in an era of information explosion, and he has a special skill in finding clues. Just approaching the woods where the ghost had been healed by a few people. First of all, he noticed the strange appearance of the thatch lying down in the grass, and after a careful examination for a moment, he said to himself: "The footprints are approaching from the northwest corner, and there are two people here. He did not lie on his stomach for long, and he was by no means a person who had been sent here in advance. Well! ”
Xu Feilong looked east and found traces of people lurking in the past. The wind was blowing from the east, and judging from the two traces, and the direction of the head when lying down, the center point might be the prey that these men were looking for. Xu Feilong followed the trail and explored, and soon saw a crumpled white handkerchief under a large tree.
It was a silk scarf half a foot wide and two feet long, exuding a faint fragrance.
"Oops! This seems to be Miss Yu's handkerchief, I seem to have smelled this fragrance, and they really fell into the hands of Chaojianglong. Xu Feilong held his handkerchief and thought secretly. A strange feeling came over me.
Checking the nearby traces again, he found the fragments of the elixir wax coat left in the short grass. But there are no traces left by the fight.
"What's going on? Could it be that they were taken away by surprise while they were healing? Or did they leave with someone on their own? Xu Feilong asked himself in confusion, puzzled.
