Red Dust Inn Sixty-first Message
It's not difficult to find out the news, just walk around and ask more. Zhao Zheng went to three taverns and teahouses in a row, made some copper plates, and got a lot of news from the mouths of several shopkeepers.
Qibao County is a small place, there are not many people coming and going, and no martial arts master will stay here for too long, at present, there are only five known masters in Qibao County.
One is Miao Li, the county commander of Qibao County, who has reached the realm of the four heavens, and his shot is like lightning, and he is extremely fierce; The second place is Yan Ping'an, the chief dart head of the Ping'an Dart Bureau, "Zhangzhen Night Road", who is also in the realm of the Four Heavens, and he practices the "Splitting the Earth Palm" kung fu in his hands, and has the power to open the monument with a single palm; The third is Wang Da Mao, a disciple of the three bags of beggars, whose strength is lower than the previous two, only in the realm of the triple heavens, and he is good at using a strange martial art "Rolling Earth Boxing Method"; The fourth place is Zhang Yuanwai's nursing home "one leg to the sky" Wei Buxiao, he is only in the realm of three heavens, the kung fu on the legs is extremely powerful, the practice is "whip legs" kung fu, it is rumored that one leg once kicked off a thigh-thick willow tree; The fifth is the friend "Brother Zhou Xian" outside the staff, this person's real name is Zhou Chen, he also has the strength of the Three Heavens, he is good at playing money darts, and he always carries no more than nine gold coins with blades on his body.
These are the first-line masters in Qibao County, and under them, there are many martial artists who are wandering in the realm of the Second Heaven, and those people are not worth mentioning.
In addition, in addition to these more famous masters, there are also a few masters in Qibao County who don't like to show their heads, ordinary people don't know that these people are also martial arts, even the well-informed shopkeepers don't know, but Zhao Zheng has a slight impression of these people because he has read the game information.
In addition to these five masters, Miao Li's younger brother Miao Shaofei is also a master of the Four Heavens, but because he is responsible for protecting the people's fat and ointment that Miao Li has looted over the years, he never shows his face and stays at Miao Li's house for many years; There is also an ascetic monk in Qibao County, Xuan Xuan, who is also a master of the Four Heavens, but he is a monk who is kind to people and never hurts people, so no one knows that he can do martial arts; In addition, the "lonely blacksmith" Mu Yihe outside the city has also reached the realm of the triple heavens, because he has been making weapons for a living all year round, and his hand strength is extremely strong, and in terms of strength, he has been able to compete with the masters of the four heavens.
In fact, as long as it is a martial artist in the realm of Qibao County, whether it is a master on the surface or a master in the secret, Zhao Zheng has a vague impression, and the reason why he asked the shopkeepers about these people is just for the sake of safety.
In this world, there are some events that develop according to the content of the game, but there are many events that are not available in the game. Li Zhenzhen is a good example, in the game, she only appears as an adult, but in this world, she began to explore the world when she was a girl.
Zhao Zheng was afraid that some martial artists would appear in Qibao County that he didn't know, so he inquired in advance, just in case. If Zhang Yuanwai and others can invite a master, then his blackmail plan will have to be postponed, because in front of a real master, all small tricks are useless.
Judging from the results of the investigation, there are no uncertain characters that are enough to disrupt Zhao Zheng's plan, among those masters, the county commander Miao Li has a lot of money, and he will not be moved by money, let alone deign to sell his life for a few employees. As for Miao Li's younger brother Miao Shaofei, it is even more impossible to make a move, this person is a shadow of Miao Li, living in the dark forever.
Yan Ping'an, the head of the "night road in the town", is a very low-key person, never asks about superfluous things, and focuses on the bodyguard business at home, and will not deign to give his life to a few employees.
Although Wang Dama's strength has just reached the realm of the Three Heavens, he is a member of the beggar gang, representing the power of the beggar gang, and he can't meddle in his affairs, not to mention that this is not a glorious thing, and if he does, it will only discredit the beggar gang, and he definitely can't afford it.
As for the other hidden masters, they didn't ask about the affairs of the rivers and lakes before, and they won't ask about it in the future.
Among the masters of Qibao County, only Wei Buxiao, the "one-legged climber" of Zhang Yuanwai's nursing home, and Zhou Chen, who is good at playing money darts, will interfere in this matter, because the matter of finding the flower path is closely related to the two of them, and they have to take care of it. Both of these people have the strength of the Triple Heaven, which is quite difficult to deal with, and they must not fight them head-on, they can only outwit them.
Now that I think about it, the "Brother Zhou Xian" that Zhang Yuanwai met in the flower search path at that time should be this Zhou Chen. In the process of tracking, Zhao Zheng felt that the person surnamed Zhou seemed to have a bit of kung fu, and now when he inquired, this was further confirmed.
There are three people outside the game who are in charge of finding the flower path, and now Zhao Zheng already knows two of them, and only one person is left who doesn't know the details. For this task, he only remembered Zhang Yuanwai, who was the most impressive, and he had long forgotten the identities of the other two members, and he couldn't remember it just by thinking about it.
Fortunately, this is not a difficult matter, just slowly screen from the circle of friends between Zhang Yuanwai and Zhou Yuanwai, presumably Li Zhenzhen can find out.
By the afternoon, Zhao Zheng had already found out everything he wanted to know, and got up and returned to his temporary residence. As soon as he entered the main room, he saw Li Zhenzhen sitting in the front hall in a daze, and it turned out that Li Zhenzhen came back one step earlier than him. The two met, because Li Zhenzhen was anxious, so Zhao Zheng first told the news he had found.
Subsequently, Li Zhenzhen also talked about what she inquired about and asked: "I have inquired about everything you asked me to inquire about, I don't know which aspect you want to hear first?" ”
"Is Zhang Yuanwai's wife fierce?" The first question that came to Zhao Zheng's mind turned out to be this, this was really gossip psychology.
"Fierce, very fierce. Zhang Yuanwai joined the Zhang family in his early years, changed his surname, and his status in the family was very low. His family property is all from the family of the main wife, and he is naturally three points shorter in front of the lady, plus his wife is average-looking, a yellow-faced woman, and there are often conflicts between husband and wife, and chickens and dogs jump all day long. ”
"Alas, it's not good for women to be too fierce." Zhao Zheng sighed, if that lady wasn't so fierce, maybe Zhang Yuanwai wouldn't have messed with flowers and grass outside, and if Zhang Yuanwai hadn't messed with flowers and grass, he wouldn't have killed so many people.
"Women are all murderous because of men," Li Zhenzhen said to the female compatriot she didn't know, "If the person surnamed Zhang is kind to his wife, can his wife be murderous with him?" ”
"You don't understand men." Zhao Zheng shook his head.
"You don't understand women." Li Zhenzhen shot back.
Zhao Zheng glanced at Li Zhenzhen's cute appearance and smiled. He didn't want to argue with Li Zhenzhen on this issue, so he said, "Forget it, let's talk about business." What kind of business do Zhang Yuanwai and Zhou Yuanwai do, and how much money do they have at home? ”
Li Zhenzhen no longer argued, and replied honestly: "Zhang Yuanwai's family has a lot of business, among which the timber business is the mainstay, and the family property is about 30,000 taels of silver. The family surnamed Zhou is a silk village, and the family property is unknown, but it will not be less than 30,000 taels. ”
"What friends do both of them have? Who do you think is the third person involved? ”
"The two of them have a wide range of friends and many friends, and there are five of them who are relatively rich." Li Zhenzhen went through the situation of these five people one by one, and then said, "I feel that the most suspicious person is a member of the family surnamed Luo, and he also has a powerful lady at home, and he is very good, and he often visits the Qinglou, which is very similar to the situation of Zhang Yuanwai." ”
"Well, he's the most suspicious." Zhao Zheng nodded, then raised his eyebrows and said, "Does he know martial arts?" Do you have any relatives or nursing homes in your family who are skilled in martial arts? ”
"He can't do it himself, there are two martial arts guards at home, but their strength is not strong, they are similar to you, just a martial artist in the Double Heaven Realm, so there is nothing to fear." Li Zhenzhen said lightly, and inadvertently belittled Zhao Zheng.
Zhao Zheng smiled bitterly, in terms of strength, he really couldn't argue.
"Now that the situation of Miss 'Chūn Xue' alone has not been clarified, why don't we go to the Hundred Flowers Pavilion to inquire about this matter now." Li Zhenzhen suggested.
"It's still early, Qinglou won't open for business so early, let's go later." Zhao Zheng waved his hand, his eyes deepened, "After we find out the situation of the 'Chūn Xue' girl, we can start to study how to blackmail those three members." ”
"Well, you must knock them hard!" Li Zhenzhen's eyes lit up.
……
Time passed quickly, and dusk arrived as promised.
Zhao Zheng and Li Zhenzhen were ready, and stepped on the twilight sè and went out early. Zhao Zheng changed into a set of graceful white sè deep clothes, and Li Zhenzhen also changed into men's clothes, and the two walked together, like a pair of brothers carved from jade, which was very eye-catching.
At this time, Baihua Pavilion had just opened, and there were not many people in the store, so the two of them rushed early.
Zhao Zheng greeted the old bustard he had met once, and then searched for many wooden signs for a while, but no matter how he searched, he couldn't find the name chūn xue.
Chūn Xue is a stage name when she hears it, and eighty percent of it is the Liuying of this Hundred Flowers Pavilion, but why is her name not on the wooden sign here? Could it be that she was picking up a customer and someone picked up the wooden sign?
Zhao Zheng didn't rush to inquire with the bustard, suppressed his curiosity, and asked the bustard to call the begonia girl to accompany the guest, planning to find a more reliable begonia to inquire about these things.
Begonia happened to have no guests now, and soon Shi Shiran came to Zhao Zheng and greeted Zhao Zheng. Since both parties knew each other, the process of playing tea was exempted, and I went upstairs and found a private room.
Zhao Zheng didn't rush to ask questions, first asked Begonia to play a few songs with Xìng, and after five songs, he invited Begonia to stop and drink and chat with him, and Begonia lightly agreed. After Haitang sat down, he first found some irrelevant topics to talk about for a while, and then pretended to ask casually: "By the way, I overheard a guest at the inn talk about a girl named Chūn Xue, it is said that this girl is very beautiful, can my sister know this person?" ”
"She's the girl from this Hundred Flowers Pavilion, of course I know." Haitang only asked when Zhao Zheng was temporarily rising, and he didn't suspect it.
Zhao Zheng's heart jumped, since Begonia is the girl here, there is no doubt that the Qinglou leading to the flower-seeking path should be here. He didn't show anything out of the ordinary, and continued to pretend to be casual and asked, "Then why isn't her name in the wooden sign in the front hall?" ”
"Because she's special."
"What's so special?"
"She's special. Although she is a rogue warbler in the store, she usually does not pick up customers casually, and only receives a few regular customers, and only those few people can touch her body. ”
"I see, she's been taken over."
"It can be understood that way." Haitang nodded, and then looked embarrassed, "About her, it has always been the secret of Baihua Pavilion, and I can't tell outsiders more, I can only tell you here, if I continue to talk about it, it will break the rules of the store." ”
"Why did you make her secretive?"
"She herself is mysterious, and the guests she receives are also mysterious, so you can't talk nonsense about it."
Zhao Zheng knew in his heart that the place where the flower path led was likely to be Chūn Xue's room, and Chūn Xue was responsible for receiving those three members, so it would be mysterious, and it was estimated that in addition to Chūn Xue, there were several other girls in this Qinglou who were also in this situation. He didn't want to embarrass Begonia, let alone show his feet, so he snorted and said: "I won't embarrass my sister, since her matter is the secret of your store, then I won't ask more." ”
"Thank you, Childe." Haitang Shi Shiran stood up, "It's still early, let me play a few more songs for the public to help the wine." With that, he walked towards his own Aegean.
Zhao Zheng looked at the back of the begonia twisting around, and praised it in his heart, this begonia's ass is really quite straight, the arc is round and attractive, even if it is through a layer of dress. Although he is an honest man, no matter how honest a man is, his eyes cannot be honest.
Li Zhenzhen noticed Zhao Zheng's sèsè gaze on the side, and was a little dissatisfied in her heart for no reason, glanced at Zhao Zheng, and turned her head angrily.
Begonia played continuously for a long time, which made Zhao Zheng feast his ears.
Zhao Zheng's goal had been achieved, and it was already very late, so he said goodbye to Haitang and left Baihua Pavilion with Li Zhenzhen.
On the way back, Zhao Zheng found that Li Zhenzhen seemed to be a little wrong, and he ignored him, which was really inexplicable. He didn't know what Li Zhenzhen was messing with, and Suo Xìng ignored Li Zhenzhen, and the two of them were just like that.
After arriving home, Zhao Zheng casually asked if he needed to help Li Zhenzhen guard the door anymore, Li Zhenzhen immediately refused and went back to the house alone. Zhao Zhengke didn't have the habit of sitting and sleeping, but he was also happy and relaxed, and also went back to his room. After entering the house, he sat cross-legged on the bed, sank into the endless sand dungeon, and practiced light skills as usual.
