"Old Liu, this is the little master who came to investigate the disappearance case from Xihe County, look at ......" The shopkeeper introduced Lu Le to the old man Liu who was working hard to write a book. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Old man Liu stopped his pen, raised his head and looked at Lu Le with a smile: "Is there no one in Xihe County, why is there a little monk here?" ”

"The little monk has shallow experience, but since he is here, he has to do his best. The seniors have extraordinary insight and are admirable, I don't know what advice I have for this case? Lu Le knew that his current seventeen or eighteen-year-old appearance was really not convincing, and he was not angry, so he simply and neatly asked this old man Liu with extraordinary eyesight for his opinion on this case.

"I can't talk about advice, but it's better for the little monk to be careful."

Lu Le was stunned, he didn't expect this old man Liu to say this, it seemed that the case was really deep, and he hurriedly asked: "Could it be that the seniors also suspect that Emei did it?" ”

"Emei?" Old man Liu shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Although the Emei disciple is arrogant, he will not dare to violate the covenant of Wu Fan. ”

"What does the senior mean......" Lu Le asked suspiciously

"Don't say it, don't say it, the little monk will go by himself." The old man shook his head again and again, and continued to write his article, the pen walked the dragon and snake, the dragon flew and the phoenix danced, Lu Le couldn't see what he was writing, and saw that the old man no longer paid attention to himself, so he had to retire.

"Please also ask the shopkeeper to take me to meet others." Old man Liu should have some clues to dig up, Lu Le secretly remembered, and he was not in a hurry, so he only asked the shopkeeper to take him to ask others.

"Of course, little master, please go this way."

……

"I guess it's the hand in room No. 2." In the No. 1 room of Xuanzi, there was a middle-aged man with a roe head and a mouse-eyed face standing in front of Lu Le, and after Lu Le explained his intentions, he swore with a mouthful of yellow teeth.

"Oh? The little monk took the liberty to ask for advice, but what evidence did the money donor have? Lu Le was unmoved and continued to ask.

"What kind of evidence do you want, that zombie face is not a good thing at first glance. Closed during the day, he shows his face at dinner, sneaky, if possible, it must be him. Big yellow teeth closed one by one, and said some clues he observed, although Lu Le was not an expert, he also felt far-fetched, and he couldn't say that such an otaku performance was a murderer.

"And yes." Seeing Lu Le's disapproving look, the man surnamed Qian revealed a little more, "I heard that this guy is from Xiangxi, Xiangxi, and you also know that the evil sect is very evil." ”

"Ugh!" Lu Le didn't react much, but the innkeeper was startled, and there were words in his mouth: "Bodhisattva bless, Bodhisattva bless......"

It seems that this sentence from Xiangxi has a strong deterrent effect, and even the well-informed shopkeeper is so frightened that he asks God to worship Buddha.

"Hehe, so, little master, I think you'd better check the bottom of this guy first, if you want me to see, these three guys have already been refined into zombies by that guy!" The man surnamed Qian grinned at his big yellow teeth and said gloatingly.

"This is natural, thank you for the donor's advice, and the little monk will leave." After saying that, Lu Le said goodbye to the man surnamed Qian, and dragged the frightened shopkeeper out of the Xuanzi No. 1 room.

"Little Master, I never expected it, the little old man has attracted a bad star, you have to help me." The old shopkeeper was so frightened at this time that he couldn't possess his body, and grabbing Lu Le's monk's robe was like a life-saving straw, and he didn't dare to let go.

"The shopkeeper's rest assured, this is just the words of the money donor, the old man should think about it, did the guest of the second room of the son of heaven have had a conflict with the money donor, otherwise why is he so enthusiastic?" Lu Le felt that this middle-aged man surnamed Qian was quite suspicious, and even a well-informed old man like Old Man Liu didn't want to get involved, why was his attitude so enthusiastic? As long as anyone with a discerning eye knows that this disappearance case is very deep: the Xihe County Ya is unwilling to send people, and the head catcher said to Lu Le that it is not good to send people enough, and Lu Le now seems to not believe half a word, it is clearly a prevarication, and sending himself to this stunned young man is an attitude in the eyes of people with a heart.

Whether it is the second brother of the Qiao family or the old man Liu, regardless of whether their inference is wrong or not, there is one thing that must not be wrong, that is, their attitude - the water is too deep in this, don't mix it. Lu Le sighed, if he wasn't in a hurry to earn a piece of money and leave Shudi, he would definitely not take on this task in such a hurry, now that he is in the middle of the world, it is not easy to get out, he can only hold on until three days later, otherwise he will regret it temporarily, I am afraid that I don't want to deal with the government in Xihe, those wanted tasks with rich rewards cannot be accepted, and if I want to leave Shudi, it will be far away.

"Conflict?" The old shopkeeper was reminded by Lu Le, and suddenly realized, "This guest officer had a conflict with the guests of Tianzi Room No. 2 a few days ago, and it seems that he has suffered a loss." This is also the reason why Xiao Lao'er arranged for his guys to be on duty at night, for fear that there would be no one to guard at night, so he fought in Xiao Lao'er's Inn. ”

So that's the case, Lu Le nodded, and secretly thought in his heart that this man surnamed Qian was also suspicious, and it was this person who started the second shopkeeper to keep vigil at night.

"Please also ask the shopkeeper to lead the little monk to the second room of Tianzi."

"This ......" The old shopkeeper looked embarrassed, although he was reminded by Lu Le, he also thought that the man surnamed Qian was spreading rumors just now, but there was still a pimple in his heart, for fear that the guests in the second room of Tianzi were really from Xiangxi.

"The shopkeeper doesn't have to worry too much, I have my own rules in the rivers and lakes, and I will never embarrass you." Lu Le was relieved, in fact, as a modern person, he witnessed various treaties being signed in person, and when he turned around, he was torn up, and his confidence in the three covenants of martial arts was not so sufficient.

Maybe it was because the shopkeeper had seen a lot of martial arts people in the past, and he still believed in the three covenants of martial arts, thought about it, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, please also ask the little master to come with me." ”

The Tianzi guest room is at the back of the inn, Lu Le followed the shopkeeper through the big courtyard at the back of the inn, entered an arch, inside is a quiet garden, there is a room on each side of the east and west, the shopkeeper took Lu Le to the west building, and said while walking: "Yan Keguan was a month ago night, when the shop was about to close, he moved in, he said that he was quiet, and he didn't want anyone to disturb him, so Xiao Lao'er arranged for him to see the Tianzi guest room that had always been unmanned, and the guest surnamed Yan was also a bold person, and he looked at the environment here. I paid for the room for three months in one go. ”

After staying in, this guest officer really did what he said, he was a quiet personality, and he let the guys into the house for breakfast and lunch, and only showed up at night. Xiao Lao'er is also very curious about why the guest surnamed Yan does not go out of the door, and he stays for three months, but the inn has the rules of the inn, and Xiao Lao'er is reluctant to ask more. I didn't expect that there was still something particular about this, if it was really as Qian Keguan said, I hope that the little master will rescue one or two. ”

"This is natural, please call the shopkeeper to the door." While speaking, the two of them had already come to the west door, Lu Le said.

"Talker, talker, speaker." The shopkeeper knocked on the door for a long time, but no one responded.

The two looked at each other, and Lu Le motioned to the shopkeeper to be calm and not to be impatient, poured his mouth with internal force, and recited a Buddha name lightly: "Amitabha, please also ask the donor inside to come out and talk about it." ”

The sound was stirred up by the internal force and came into the guest room, which seemed to be light and heavy, and it reverberated throughout the room.

Still no response. Lu Le tried to push the door down, but it didn't move, and the inside was latched and locked.

Just when the two looked at each other, suddenly there was a loud bang, and the door opened faintly.

Lu Le raised his eyes and was startled, a young man with a pale face stood at the door, looking at the two of them with unkind eyes, obviously disturbed and unhappy.

"Shopkeeper, what's going on? I said that no outsiders would disturb me. The young man surnamed Yan had a weak voice, and his words were very weak.

"Guest officer, this is the little master who came to investigate the case from Xihe County, and asked the guest officer about the situation in the past few days."

"I don't know!" The young man surnamed Yan was very simple, and he was about to close the door to thank customers.

Lu Le hurriedly pressed the door and asked, "Brother Yan is from Xiangxi?" ”

The young man was stunned for a moment, looked at Lu Le and replied angrily: "The rumors surnamed Qian, no!" With that, he closed the door and ignored the two of them.

"Brother Yan! Brother Yan! Lu Le patted the door, and the young man surnamed Yan inside no longer paid attention to it, so he had no choice but to return with the shopkeeper.

"It's good if it's not, it's good if it's not." The shopkeeper was very happy at this time, and patted his chest repeatedly.

"Shopkeeper, just now I saw that you didn't panic much about the Emei disciples, how could you scare you like this when you heard a guest from Xiangxi?" Lu Le touched his nose, the door here, he was a newcomer, so he naturally didn't understand.

"Alas, the little master doesn't know, if the word Xiangxi is put outside the West River, it can scare a bunch of people."

"Oh? Shopkeeper, what do you say here? ”

"Little Master, don't look at our town so dilapidated now, in the past, my Donghe was also a first-class prosperous place in Shudi." The old shopkeeper recalled that year, his eyes were hazy, as if he was thinking about the flowers of the year.

"Huh? Why are you here now? Lu Le was shocked.

"It's not like a big event happened more than 20 years ago." The old shopkeeper sighed, as if he was reminiscing about the past.

Twenty years ago? Lu Le secretly thought, isn't it related to the Garan Temple?

"Back then, there was a holy place of Wuzong on this side of my West River, called Jialan Temple, which was bigger than the current Emei. At that time, I entertained people from the rivers and lakes who came and went, and it was a big city in Xishu, and the prosperity was not much better than that of CD Mansion. ”

It shouldn't be, Lu Le said secretly. If Donghe is really as prosperous as the shopkeeper said, even if Jialan Temple is closed and gradually declining in 20 years, it should not be what it is now.

So Lu Le asked: "The shopkeeper, humanity is a thin camel is bigger than a horse, if it is really as you said, why is Donghe like this now?" ”

"It's not because there was a catastrophe back then, hundreds of ghosts walked at night, and the corpses of the living changed. After this chaos, the entire Donghe Castle was razed. The shopkeeper said with fear on his face at this time.
