Chapter 427: Lost

Chu Xintian hadn't seen the world before, but now looking at the Jinbao in front of her, she couldn't help but exclaim.

"Five thousand taels of silver, Xia Yuan's life, who is he who is worth so much money?"

Chu Xintian is not an unassertive person in daily life, but now, with so much money in front of her, she is really at a loss.

With so much gold, to be honest, she has nowhere to spend it now.

She had a thousand hundred taels of silver in her hand. After the last treatment for Mrs. Lu, the old lady also gave her a lot of gold. Chu Xintian didn't touch those things

The gold, whether building a house or renovating a land, cannot be used for any business.

Chu Xintian is not a miser, but she doesn't want to use the money.

One is that there is nowhere to spend.

In addition, Chu Xintian did not find out Xia Yuan's identity. When Xia Yuan gave her gold, she always felt a little hot.

So Chu Xintian didn't think much about it. She put all the gold in the box and put it together with the gold in the kang cave.

In the West House, Ah Lu helped Zhao Wu to sit on the kang and saw that his eyebrows were tightly closed.

Ah Lu has been following Zhao Wu for a while. He could roughly guess the young marshal's thoughts.

"Young marshal, don't you let Chu Yuan inquire about his sister's situation. Ask what the name of that person was just now, and what does Sister Chu Yuan have to do with them."

Zhao Wu listened to Ah Lu's words, but frowned and did not respond immediately.

At this time, Zhao Wu was thinking about the conversation with Chu Xintian in the courtyard just now.

Chu Xintian told him that this was the first time she had seen the suspicious man who had just come to give Chu Xintian a gift, because Chu Xintian had already cured his master's illness.

At that time, Zhao Wu carefully observed Chu Xintian's expression when he spoke. He could see that the woman wasn't lying. What she said should be the truth.

Thinking of this, Zhao Wu sank his eyes: "Don't ask, wait for Ah Fu and them to come back first."

Zhao Wu didn't want to suspect Chu Xintian, if he sent someone to ask, it would make Chu Xintian feel bad.

"Young marshal, when I helped Sister Chu Yuan move the box, it weighed at least fifty or sixty pounds, so the small box was very heavy. I'm afraid there's gold in it. If it is fifty or sixty catties, it is five or six hundred taels Who is such a poor scholar who came to give people so much gold at once, if it really has anything to do with the robbers of Qinglong Mountain, what we met this time is not an ordinary robber. Maybe that's a good start."

"I know."

Ah Lu said a lot of words, and Zhao Wu only answered him with three words.

Seeing that Zhao Wu no longer spoke, but closed his eyes to recuperate, Ah Lu didn't dare to speak more.

He could only hope that they would soon come back and bring back some useful information.

Ah Lu was really anxious for a long time. In the evening, Addo and Hammer returned.

"Young marshal, my subordinates should die, I lost that person" As soon as Ah Fu entered the West House, he knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty.

It turned out that Ah Fu and Hammer, along with two other soldiers, had been following the carriage to the county seat, and the carriage had stopped in front of a restaurant.

Ah Fu saw the man in the robe, got out of the carriage, and walked into the tavern. He and the hammer followed the man in the robes.

The man turned and entered a private room, where Ah Fu and Hammer stood in the doorway, listening to what was happening inside.

But after listening for a while, it was silent.

They knocked on the door and saw the open window.

It was clear that the man had jumped out of the window.

Outside the window is the liveliest market in the county.

Ah Fu shouted in his heart, but he still followed the hammer for a long time.

Of course, there was no trace of that person either.

This made Ah Fu very angry, but there was no way.

They can only go back to the door of the restaurant.

The carriage in which the man was riding was stopped by two of Ah Fu's soldiers. The coachman was interrogated for a long time. In the end, they determined that the carriage could only be rented at will by people on the street. The coachman did not know who the man was or where his family lived.

This is enough to show that he is not a reckless person and that he is well prepared.

Ah Fu knew that he was wasting time in the county and that it was useless, so he took people back to Shuangxi Village.
