Chapter 171: Yuanyang is exhausted
Xu saw his astonishment, and the other party smiled and said, "When you took people down from the cargo ship, I was passing by there. β
"Oh?" Xu Hao was suddenly surprised, and at the same time quite surprised, he never expected that this woman would actually talk to him because of this kind of thing, which was a little abrupt.
"Donor. At this moment, a plain-clothed and thick-eyebrow Taoist priest on the side of the Sanqing statue next to him slowly got up. walked straight to the front and said in a deep voice: "This female benefactor came to ask for a signature, and she made a special calculation, and the signature showed that the first person she met on the river today who got off the boat and was also at the original view was her nobleman. β
Xu Hao looked at the Taoist priest in amazement and then at the girl, the corners of his mouth twitched, he never thought that there would be such a thing, it was obviously a charlatan, this woman was so gullible.
The first time I went out, I just arrived in Sioux City was an eye-opener.
"The little girl's surname is Su Mingyun, she was really abrupt just now, dare to ask Gongzi's surname?" The girl reported her name, and in front of the statue of Sanqing, she looked quite elegant.
"Under Xu Hao. Xu Hao nodded and responded out of polite instinct.
Su Yun's eyes were clear and as pure as amber, and she continued to ask softly: "Just now you came down from the cargo ship of the Luojiang Ship, I think you are the ship's family, young and promising, if it is really my nobleman, it is indeed possible, I don't know where you want to go?"
While speaking, there is endless charm in the beautiful eyes, which is quite moving.
"This ......" Xu Hao hesitated, looked at Su Yun and said: "Life is impermanent, what noble person can say? β
After speaking, he turned straight and walked down the mountain, he was just taking the time to relax, but when he encountered such an inexplicable thing, of course Xu Hao would not talk too much with a strange woman because of an unwarranted fortune telling.
It will not be a sperm worm in the brain, and it will talk nonsense because of the other party's beauty.
Most importantly, he felt a strange aura from this girl named Su Yun. It's very light, but it's very special, I don't know if it's an illusion, it's like burning.
"Alas, childeββ!" Su Yun stretched out his hand, trying to stop it, but it was too late.
Leaving Changchun Temple, Xu Hao returned to Sioux City, the streets were lively, and there were merchants and pawns everywhere.
"Fragrant buns! Hot steamed buns! Ten copper plates in a cage, full of tubes!"
"Come and taste it, the best fresh melons and fruits have just been picked from the ground!"
"Good dry firewood, five copper plates and a load!"
......
In the city market, there are breakfast stalls selling steamed buns, hot soybean milk, and osmanthus cakes, as well as fishermen selling fish, farmers who pick up vegetables and fruits, and woodcutters who sell firewood.
Xu Hao walked around the city, looking around, his face full of curiosity.
However, for some reason, since he had just come down in Changchun, Su Yun's face kept flashing in his mind. That delicate pretty face is always lingering.
"Huh......" Xu Hao gasped lightly, frowning, he had seen countless beauties, he should never be like this. He smiled helplessly, shook his head slightly, and found a restaurant to rest alone.
Playing alone until the evening, Xu Hao walked towards the Wangjiang Restaurant, the environment of this restaurant is quite good, and only the owner, the bow and the warrior can live here in the merchant ship.
The rest of the people live in the fisherman's restaurant near the wharf.
Xu Hao walked into this restaurant, antique and quite elegant, but Ma Xuejiang sat on the table in the store with an ugly face, and sat with martial artists Wu Chen, Song Xueli, Zhang Dongyi, and Kong Shijie.
"I'm back. Xu Hao said loudly, seeing him come back, several people immediately got up and saluted, Ma Xuejiang said with a happy face: "Boss, your room is ready, hurry up and rest." β
"Well, what's wrong?"
Of course Xu Hao is not stupid, he naturally saw the problem, it stands to reason that a few days of travel plus a day of overseer fatigue, a few people should rest early.
At this time, they gathered together, but they didn't know why?
"Hi...... Owner, I didn't want to talk about this, but, but. Ma Xuejiang hesitated slightly, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "In the afternoon, our people had an accident, and there was a ship-accompanying guard named Man Qiang, who left the dock in the afternoon and went out, but was found dead in the flower building." β
"Huh?" Xu Hao frowned, the five big and three thick guards on the ship would go to Hualou, which was nothing new, but death was rare, he kept silent and continued to listen silently.
"Originally, it was nothing to go to Hualou, but it was unusual to die there, the most important thing! It was actually a dead body withered, as if it had been sucked dry, which was extremely weird. β
"What?" Xu Hao was stunned, his whole body withered, as if he had been sucked dry, how could this be?
The first thing on his mind was poisoning, but it shouldn't be very likely. Ordinary guards have no value, who would deliberately poison them in the flower building? And this kind of poison, except for those who know the formula, I am afraid that there are few people.
"What clues are there at present?" Xu Hao thought about it, this thing is really strange, it is extremely terrifying to be able to silently turn a big man into a dry corpse and put it anywhere.
Even the business of the flower building will be greatly affected.
"Nope. Ma Xuejiang shook his head and said sadly: "We have already gone to the city defense army a few times this afternoon, and now the Sui Jiang martial artist is still there to deal with the aftermath." It seems that in the end, it will not be resolved, but this matter is quite troublesome whether it is to explain to the city defense army or to compensate the family. β
"Oh?" Xu Hao's face was solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "In that case, can you take me to see the body of that guard?"
"This ......" Ma Xuejiang hesitated, he knew Xu Hao's identity very well, the owner of Jinyitang, and the divine doctor of Qingxiao Kingdom. If he is willing to go and see it, it may or may not be rewarding.
"Okay!" Thinking of this, Ma Xuejiang immediately nodded in agreement.
The two of them then got up and went straight to the location of the Sioux City Defenses. After reporting their identities, they were immediately allowed to enter, but after seeing the corpse, Xu Hao's face instantly became solemn.
I saw this guard called Man Qiang lying on the wooden plank covered with white cloth, his whole body was dried up and his body had shrunk in a circle? It was like a thousand-year-old corpse, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was wide open, his hands were stretched forward and his five fingers were twisted, and the look of horror appeared on his face.
To death, to freeze his emotions unchanging. This kind of death is really terrifying!
"Hiss......" Xu Hao walked around the corpse, stretched out his hand and touched it, it was as stiff as dead wood, and it was confirmed that it was definitely not poisoned.
"Yuanyang is extremely dry, so there will be this way to die. After a moment, he said, of course, he knew the way of medicine very well. And what can cause this effect is naturally the exhaustion of Yuanyang.
