Chapter 482: Wait for him to come back and give him the silver
Go ahead!
It's better to die!
Zhang Xiaoyan gloated in her heart, but seeing that Ma Rui was a greedy person who was afraid of death, I was afraid that there were not many dramas to watch.
Let's go see Old Man Wu first, maybe I can get some news from him.
Of course, I couldn't go to see the master empty-handed, so I went to the city to buy good wine and food in a restaurant, and bought some pastries, and took these to the black market.
Hey!
Today is a closed day, the surroundings are quiet, the stalls are empty, and the shops are not open. She followed the familiar road to the alley, and when she came to the door of Old Man Wu's house, she looked around for a while, and then raised her hand and knocked on the gate of the courtyard.
Knock knock! Knock knock!
The rhythm of knocking on the door was explained by Old Man Wu before, as long as there were people inside, the door would definitely be opened.
At this time, Old Man Wu had just fallen asleep. A few days ago, he received a big order, and he had been staying up all night until dawn for the past few days, when he suddenly heard a familiar knock on the door, and he sat up suddenly.
Big hairy head!
With the name in mind, he rolled over and got out of bed and quickly opened the door.
Seeing the person standing at the door, he was stunned for a while, and when he reacted, he dragged the person into the courtyard. I looked around again, but I didn't notice anyone following, so I was a little relieved.
Entering the courtyard, Old Man Wu looked at Zhang Xiaoyan seriously, and when he saw her standing in front of him alive, he suddenly laughed: "Okay! All right! A ragged colt may make a good horse! The afterlife is terrifying! ”
"Master!" Zhang Xiaoyan still shouted respectfully, and then knelt down and kowtowed to him three times.
Old man Wu has always been reluctant to admit that he accepted this apprentice, but seeing Zhang Xiaoyan standing in front of him after his death, the excitement has already outweighed the stubbornness.
Wiping her tears, she hurriedly helped the person up: "Stinky girl, it's good to be alive, it's good to be alive!" ”
"Master, I brought you a lot of delicious food, come, master, let's have two drinks." Zhang Xiaoyan got up and pulled Old Man Wu to sit on a chair in the courtyard.
Old man Wu kept staring at Zhang Xiaoyan, even if there was a slight change in his face, his eyes were still dark and bright.
"Come, drink!" Zhang Xiaoyan went to the kitchen to bring a wine glass, poured a glass slowly, and then handed it to Old Man Wu with both hands.
Old man Wu's hands trembled, and after raising his head and drinking the wine, he suddenly thought of something, and slowly put down the cup in his hand with a frown: "Girl, you are not only here to see me, a bad old man, do you want to go to Old Liu Tou's trip?" ”
Sure enough, he couldn't hide anything from Old Man Wu's eyes, Zhang Xiaoyan lowered her head weakly: "I wanted to come to see you, but when I came, I heard that Ma Rui said that it seemed that the old poison had been turned over, so I planned to go over and take a look later." ”
Ay......
Old man Wu sighed and looked at Zhang Xiaoyan with locked eyes.
He knew that this girl was not destined to be a thing in the pool, so it was not surprising that there were a few more masters. Moreover, Lao Liutou's ability is not small, and it is also a good thing that the girl can learn from this person.
Zhang Xiaoyan saw that Old Man Wu's face was not quite right, and asked with some worry, "Master, are you unhappy?" ”
"Hahaha! Is the old man such a narrow-minded man? However, Lao Liu Tou has indeed been turned over by someone, and the old man doesn't know who it is. When I went, the house was in shambles, and I couldn't see anything useful. ”
"That'...... Old poison him! Zhang Xiaoyan looked worried.
Old man Wu shook his head, and stood up with an idea: "Let's go, I'll take you to have a look, maybe you can see something?" ”
"Good!" Zhang Xiaoyan also wanted to go to see the scene, as long as something happened, it would definitely leave traces.
On the way, Old Man Wu told Zhang Xiaoyan to make everyone think that they were just going to buy medicine, so as not to arouse unnecessary suspicion when they got it.
When he came to the door of Lao Liutou's house, Old Man Wu deliberately shouted at the gate: "Lao Liutou, Lao Liutou has bought medicine, Lao Liutou." ”
I'm afraid this voice can be heard all over the street, and a gate not far away from the house opened, and when I saw that it was Old Man Wu, the man stuck out his head and said, "Old Man Wu, Old Man Liu hasn't been at home for many days, I'm afraid you will have to run in vain." ”
"Thank you, Brother Zhou, I'll go in and wait and see!" Old man Wu replied to his old friend, and took Zhang Xiaoyan to push the door into the courtyard.
Sure enough, just as Old Man Wu said, the courtyard was in a mess, and it was obviously turned over.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaoyan only felt her heart tighten, and her fists were tightened.
Old man Wu gave her a look, and deliberately said loudly: "Go to the pharmacy to see, take it back if you need it, and then give the silver when you come back." ”
"Thank you!" Zhang Xiaoyan replied loudly and clearly.
I quickly entered the pharmacy, and after checking in the pharmacy, I didn't find anything special, and I went to the place where the medicine was boiled to investigate, but I didn't find anything important.
Wrong!
The old poison is so shrewd, if something happens, it will definitely leave some clues.
Kitchen!
Yes, that old foodie will definitely go to the kitchen.
Thinking about it, she turned around and went to the kitchen, rummaging through the kitchen, still finding nothing.
No! There will definitely be something left, there will definitely be something left.
She stood in the middle of the kitchen, her eyes like a sharp sword, and swept around earnestly, until she landed on a dirty, broken bowl on the floor.
Unable to miss any clues, she walked over and squatted down to take the broken bowl into her arms, and after that, she looked at it carefully, and found nothing unusual, so she took some herbs from the pharmacy and went to the courtyard.
"Old Wu, that's enough." She said it deliberately.
"Then let's go, and I'll give him the money when he returns." After Old Man Wu finished speaking, he led people out of the courtyard and pulled the courtyard door over casually.
Not far away, a head emerged from the shadows, and when he saw the old man and the young man coming out with some herbs, he deliberately followed him for a while.
The two of them were not stupid, they had already felt that someone was following, so they deliberately went to a few more stores to buy some medicinal materials, and pretended to send Zhang Xiaoyan away after buying them.
The spy didn't have much suspicion when he saw that he was just buying medicine, after all, there were many people who went to buy medicine from Lao Liutou. There are also many people who want to ask Lao Liu Tou to detoxify, like Old Man Wu lives nearby, and it is normal to take people to buy medicine, not to mention that there are not only two of them who go in to buy medicine these days.
In this way, the spies returned to the back of the street and continued to monitor the neighborhood.
After Zhang Xiaoyan left the black market, she walked around the neighborhood to make sure that no one followed her and went to buy a set of clothes to change into, and secretly returned to the black market again, and came to the door of Old Man Wu's house along the familiar road.
After Old Man Wu came back, he continued to eat and drink, wondering who Old Liu Tou had provoked, so he would suddenly disappear.
