Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Immortal Couple

The two people hiding in the attic looked at each other and immediately cheered up. The events of the day have been spread to the Taoist temple, and now, the head of the sect is also very nerve-wracking at this time, after all, Wang Defa disappeared on the way to the Taoist temple.

From the conversation between the two below, it was learned that the matter was not right when the foreman counted the number of people in the morning, and found that Wang Defa did not come, and asked other workers, saying that he had gone home yesterday. The workers all paid for food and lodging in the Taoist temple, but Wang Defa wanted to go back. A few co-workers knew that he had a Qiao Niang outside in addition to Li Lian, and they all laughed at him for not being able to settle his wife and concubine, so he had to work hard to run on both sides.

Before, he used to go back at night and go to work in the morning, but this morning there was no one. At first, everyone didn't think there was anything, compared to the fact that Wang Mouse was notorious, and it was too normal to make a cheating and trick. However, in the afternoon, everyone heard that Wang Mouse's wife had stopped the princess's sedan chair.

At this time, everyone was surprised that Wang Defa was missing.

Originally, Uncle Zhou meant to suppress this matter and declare that he didn't know about it, plus Wang Defa himself was a laipi, so he could directly remove Hongfeng Guan from this matter.

But Lingyue said, I heard that Wang Defa owed a fart - stock debt, the money for repairing the Red Maple Temple was from the princess's mansion, and the salary was high and the board and lodging were included. People expect to use this money to pay off their debts, how can they run?

Now that people outside are staring at the Taoist temple, they have to come up with an explanation.

The head of the house lowered his head and thought for a moment, and sighed, "The poor road has bothered the princess again. ”

He said sincerely, his words were full of respect, and there was a trace of imperceptible worry, Ling Yue said, "Don't worry, the head of the family, things will always pass." Now that there is one less worker, tomorrow I will go outside and summon some more people back. ”

One less one? Xin Zhi pinched the corner of the clothes of the person next to him, Shen Fei turned his head sideways and made a "shhh" gesture, he raised his hand and gently pressed Xin Zhi's head, signaling her not to be discovered.

Seeing that Shen Fei ignored herself, she had to continue to lie on the beam of the room and listen to the conversation between the two, the voice of the head was a little small, and she leaned out to listen more carefully. As soon as he stretched out his head, he was dragged back by Shen Fei and wrapped around his arm with a force on his waist. She pushed the person next to her with some dissatisfaction, but he ignored her, and her hands tightened even harder.

Seeing that Shen Fei really didn't let go of himself, Xin Zhi had no choice but to sit on the spot and let him hold him. She looked at the people below and unconsciously bit her fingers and thought, if she heard it correctly, the head of the family clearly revealed that there were still people missing before Wang Defa!

Who could be that missing person? It seems that we will have to go to the yamen again, and maybe we will be able to find some clues from it.

"His Royal Highness will come to Guannei the day after tomorrow, Lingyue, be sure to take care of everything to welcome the princess."

"Yes. The colt ......" Ling Yue paused, "Is the pony still the same?" ”

"Alas," the head of the house sighed deeply and shook his head, "the princess and the concubine have a deep affection, and I believe that the Supreme will send blessings to bless them both." ”

Lingyue nodded in agreement, "The princess gives tens of thousands of offerings to Guanli every year, and we should pray for her, hoping that the horse will recover her health as soon as possible, and hold hands with Her Royal Highness the princess." He added, "A few days ago, the disciple heard that there is a divine doctor who can cure all kinds of diseases, and he has been traveling abroad all the year round and happened to come to Daqi, why don't we try to invite him, maybe we can help His Highness or two." ”

The head of the house said "um" in agreement, and left the attic without stopping.

"Shen Fei," after seeing the two of them go away, Xin Zhi turned her head sideways and shouted, the snort of the person next to her made her heart beat a little faster, obviously the two of them were so close, but she still felt ashamed, "Go to the Yamen......"

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Fei came down and bit his cheek, his tone was a little unkind, "What are you doing in such a hurry?" He didn't like Xin Zhi to focus too much on anything other than himself, and he was a little unhappy in his heart.

There's no hurry...... Xin Zhi said silently in her heart, she hoped that she could play a role beside Shen Fei, lest he enter the room of an unknown woman again.

"That's it," Shen Fei said, "Since you want to go, let's go back to the yamen again." After saying that, he stood up to himself, threw Xin Zhi aside and left.

Xin Zhi: "??? ”

What's the matter with this man? How to change your face is the same as flipping a book? Also, when did she say that she wanted to go to the yamen, wasn't that to check for clues?

didn't have time to think about it, Xin Zhi also got up and caught up, and the two of them went one after the other, and they didn't speak on the whole road.

The snow outside was still falling, Xin Zhi didn't bring the little fox fur when she went out, the snow fell into the placket and wet the entire collar, she saw Shen Fei on the side and didn't know what to say, so she had to silently twist the wet placket.

With this pull, the entire shoulder is exposed, and the white shoulders are integrated with the heavy snow, which looks quite sultry.

Xin Zhi was still walking slowly with her head down, her clothes wrinkled as soon as she twisted it, and it didn't look very elegant, and suddenly her eyes were dark, and she raised her head to see Shen Fei standing in front of her with a calm face.

His eyes fell on the snow-white skin a little deep, and he stepped forward to pull up the clothes for her, "How do you pull clothes on the street......" His fingers rubbed over the haunting white neck, and it was cold.

"It's not too cold to wear so little?" took off her robe and wrapped her tightly around Xin Zhi, and the snow white was also covered.

Xin Zhi was helpless, and said in her heart that Shen Fei bought it all over her body, and she naturally wore whatever he gave.

I don't know what Shen Fei is angry about, in short, how he wants to follow it himself, she likes to get used to this person.

Not long after, the two returned to the yamen, and after being passed on, they went in to see the magistrate. After Shen Fei made his intentions clear to Qi Bin, the county magistrate led the two to the study and ordered his subordinates to present the case file.

"Look at the two of you, these are the people who have been missing for the past three months." He spread out the case file and pointed, "This is Kong Zhuang, that is, the first person I have received a report of disappearance in the past three months, and this is the second person, named He Xiao, who was reported by a neighbor in the two days after Kong Zhuang's disappearance......

The folded file contains detailed information about the missing people, all men and unemployed ruffians.

"Ahh Xin Zhi beside her suddenly spoke, she picked up the file in her hand and waved it at Shen Fei, "They... Red maple view! ”

Red maple view?

Shen Fei took the file in Xin Zhi's hand and looked at it carefully, the person in her hand was named Li Quan, a seven-foot-tall strong man, he liked to go in and out of the gambling house, and he owed gambling debts like Wang Defa. That is, two months ago, this person also went to the Red Maple Temple to build an attic, and then disappeared.

This Li Quan should be the person who disappeared before Wang Defa in Lingyue's mouth. Is this a coincidence? Or is it a conspiracy?

"Two months ago, the Sanqing Hall of the Red Maple View was flooded because the incense was too strong, and the entire hall was almost burned, because it was the main hall, the head immediately recruited people to repair it." The magistrate thought for a while and said, "I remember that Li Quan seems to have been missing for a long time before coming to report the case, maybe no one thought that such a hooligan would disappear like this...... Hey, it's also a life, it's gone, I'm afraid I've been killed by now. ”

Yes, these people are probably killed as the magistrate said, and the murderer picks this kind of laziness and sees that no one will care about them...... In other words, even if they are discovered, they can be unscrupulous because of their previous chaotic style.

But they are all hooligans and ruffians, not to mention Wang Defa, even if they are Kong Zhuang and Li Quan, they are all tall and strong, and the strength on their bodies is not small, so how did the murderer catch them?

Red Maple View... There may be something wrong with this view of red maple.

As for what...... Shen Fei thought to himself, maybe it was repaired too often?

It is strange that such a large Taoist temple has had accidents one after another.

Shen Fei asked, "I heard that the eldest princess often goes to the Red Maple Temple to worship today, do you know why?" ”

Speaking of Jun and the eldest princess, Zhixian's face really softened a lot, "The eldest princess is a good person, she is both talented and beautiful, and there are people like the concubine who are pampered and should live the life of a fairy couple, but it's a pity that the concubine has been in poor health, and I heard that I almost didn't wake up before...... The princess must have gone to worship so often for the sake of the pony. ”

Jun and the eldest princess treated people peacefully all her life, and had compassion, the emperor of Qi respected her, and the people loved her, and later the eldest princess and Li Fu's second son Li Cheng'an married or His Majesty personally pointed out the marriage.

The three children of the Li family, the eldest sister married the current prime minister, the second Li Chengan married the eldest princess, and the third Li Yuan married the daughter of the Taifu, which can be described as extremely favored for a while. Especially Li Chengan and Princess Junhe, the relationship between the two is harmonious, and they are a couple that everyone envies. Perhaps it was God's innocence that he was jealous of this woman with a good life, and it didn't take long for Li Chengan to fall ill, and this illness was a full five years.

"Tomorrow, the eldest princess will hold a plum banquet specifically for the horses, he stays at home all the year round, and rarely sees the lively scene outside, so the eldest princess is thinking about making the horses happy by enjoying the plum banquet."

When she was in the Red Maple Temple, she heard that the head of the family said that the princess would go to worship the day after tomorrow, Xin Zhi thought that the princess really cared about the horse, but even though she was so noble and powerful, she couldn't control birth, old age, sickness and death.

Not to mention a mortal princess, a powerful ghost king like Snow Valley also failed to resurrect Linglong.

The disappearances of Li Quan and Wang Defa are both related to the Red Maple Temple, but... It's just related, both of them were workers who built the pavilion before their deaths, and they couldn't find any useful information, so the clues were broken.

On the way back, Shen Fei set up a magic shield to block the wind and snow outside, and the inside was warm and comfortable.

"You should wear a cotton jacket and fur in winter, do you want to get sick if you wear such a little clothes?"

Xin Zhi looked at Shen Fei in surprise, his brows furrowed again when he came out of the yamen, and she said slowly, "It's not cold, it's not sick." "Shen Fei is afraid that she is not confused, how can she be afraid of the cold as a demon corpse, and how can she be sick?

Not to mention this little snowflake, even if you put her in the ice river and freeze her for another forty-nine days, it will be no problem.

The person next to him pursed his lips and didn't say anything more, Xin Zhi stepped forward quickly to keep up, but Shen Fei walked faster and faster, making it clear that he didn't want her to follow, so he walked out and turned a corner, and suddenly saw a few big men in the alley surrounding a woman.

"What are you doing! Give it back! The woman shouted, and Xin Zhi stopped to look at the girl in a thick jacket and her hair in a bun. A small handful of broken hair on his white neck looks particularly charming.

This person is Qiao Niang?
