When the carriage was stable, Jin Lingluo patted her hand and motioned for her to wait in the carriage, while he jumped out of the carriage to check the situation.

Blue Baby nodded, his gaze slowly moving towards the man lying on the ground.

Looking at the amount of blood on his clothes, it seems that he is not light, and he doesn't know whether he is dead or alive?

Jin Lingluo stood beside the man and observed for a moment, and after making sure that he really couldn't move, he squatted down to check.

"It's him!" A moment later, Jin Lingluo let out a slightly startled voice.

"Who is it?" Blue Baby hurriedly asked.

Jin Lingluo turned back to her and said, "Old friend." ”

Friends?!

This title immediately reminded Lan Baobao of what he had said to Feng Wei, could it be that Zheng Zhutou in Zhangcheng again?

Didn't he go out with his uncle to talk about business, how did he become like this?

Blue Baby couldn't believe it.

Jin Lingluo observed the people on the ground for a while, and found that there were multiple wounds on his body, no fatal injuries, it should be fainting caused by excessive blood loss.

After thinking about it for a moment, he stretched out his hand to help the person into the carriage, and when the blue baby took a closer look, it turned out to be Zheng Zhutou.

To paraphrase Feng Wei's words: We have a lot of fate with this Zheng Zhutou!

After entering the city, he first took people to the infirmary for treatment, and then settled down in an ordinary inn.

Zheng Huaiqi was not in a coma for too long, and not long after lying down in the inn, he woke up leisurely.

Seeing the unfamiliar bedtop, a trace of vigilance and suspicion flashed on his face, but he had no strength to struggle due to excessive blood loss, so he could only look to the side with fierce eyes.

"Zheng Zhutou, you're awake!" The blue baby stayed in the house, and when he noticed movement here, he quickly ran over.

At this time, she changed into women's clothes again, Zheng Huaiqi didn't expect to meet an acquaintance, so she was stunned immediately, and it took a long time before she made a voice: "Madam! ”

Hearing this title, Lan Baobao couldn't help twitching the corners of her mouth twice, everyone mistook her for Ling Wang's wife, and everyone called her not her husband's surname, but her wife.

？ Sounds like there's a big lady up there!

"How are you feeling right now?" Blue Baby collected his emotions and asked.

Zheng Huaiqi really twisted his body twice, and when he tore the wound on his body, he only frowned twice.

Lan Baobao thought that he must not want to be seen by outsiders in his embarrassed appearance, so he no longer continued to ask, but advised: "You lie down first, I'll go to Jiang... Come here. ”

Zheng Huaiqi nodded gratefully.

But after a while, the blue baby came back with Jin Lingluo.

Zheng Huaiqi struggled to get out of bed to salute, but was stopped by Jin Lingluo, "Brother Zheng is injured, just lie down." ”

"Zheng thanked the two of you for saving your life, I really didn't expect that we would meet again so soon after saying goodbye in Quzhou City last time." At this point, Zheng Huaiqi showed a bitter smile, "I'm really ashamed, and let the two of you see Zheng's down-and-out appearance, hey!" ”

Jin Lingluo arched his hand and asked, "Brother Zheng has met an enemy?" ”

Zheng Huaiqi waved his hand, his eyes flashed with worry and resentment, and he said: "I went out with my uncle to talk about business, and I originally planned to settle down in Wulu City first, see the situation here, and then go to Guangling City." Who would have thought that they would encounter a gang of bandits who robbed us of our carriage and silver? ”

At that time, they fought hard and unintentionally removed one of the disguises, so they became murderous. These bandits were all vicious and killed the three guards who were with them in a matter of moments. In the next two fists, it was difficult to defeat four hands, so he could only cover his uncle's escape first. Later, he became like this, and I don't know where my uncle is now, whether he can be safe. ”

Jin Lingluo also knew about the rumors of bandits rampant in the area of Luowu, but the imperial court had sent troops to suppress the liquidation many times, and the Jiedu envoy on the side of Luowu had also reported to the imperial court, and the chaos had been cleared.

"Are there bandits here often?" Jin Lingluo asked.

Zheng Huaiqi thought about it for a while, and replied uncertainly: "I have been in Zhangcheng before, and I rarely come to Luowu, and I don't know much about the situation in the cluster. When you found me, did you encounter those bandits? ”

Jin Lingluo shook his head, "I saw you alone, I thought I saw you running onto the official road, and I didn't dare to be too presumptuous." ”

"It should be so." Zheng Huaiqi nodded, looking preoccupied, and then struggled to get out of bed.

Lan Baobao glanced at King Ling, and then he persuaded him: "Zheng Zhutou, you are too seriously injured, and you still need to cultivate well." ”

Zheng Huaiqi is a martial arts practitioner in the end, even though it is a little difficult, he still forces himself to get out of bed.

Holding the curtain with one hand, and covering the deepest wound on his chest with the other, he replied: "I have to go back to my uncle, in case he encounters those bandits again, I am afraid that he will ......."

He couldn't bear to finish the rest of the story, but everyone understood his concern.

"Don't be in a hurry, you sit down first." Jin Lingluo pressed his hand on him, then looked at the blue baby and asked, "Do you have charcoal on you?" ”

When he asked suddenly, Lan Baobao immediately remembered that when she was in Quzhou City, His Royal Highness had brought her a piece of fine charcoal, which moved her badly.

"Yingying" She was suddenly a little embarrassed, and hurriedly took out the homemade charcoal from the cloth bag she carried.

Zheng Huaiqi asked inexplicably, "Is this wanting?" ”

"People are lost in the Wulu territory, and the government should always take care of it." Jin Lingluo replied.

Zheng Huaiqi and Lan Baobao both understood what he meant.

Half an hour later, through Zheng Huaichi's description, Lan Baobao finally completed the portrait of Sheng Yuwen.

A middle-aged man in his fifties, but still in good spirits.

The next day, Jin Lingluo went out with the portrait.

Blue Baby stayed in the inn to take care of Zheng Huaichi, and Zheng Huaiqi was obviously more anxious than yesterday, thinking that he was too worried about the safety of his uncle.

Jin Lingluo went out for a long time, and when he came back, he told Zheng Huaiqi that the government had sent someone to find someone and asked him to wait patiently.

Who knew that less than two hours after he finished speaking, someone from the government suddenly came to inform them that the person had been found, but unfortunately the person was dead.

Zheng Huaiqi listened to the whole person and lost his mind, and sat on the bed with a smile, without a trace of movement for a long time.

"You go to the yamen to claim the body first, we suspect that he killed him, and we have already started to investigate." The official who came to report the news added.

Zheng Huaiqi finally reacted, and asked excitedly: "He killed?" How did Uncle he die? Where were the bodies found? ”

The official was a little impatient, but he was afraid of Jin Lingluo's aura, and replied dissatisfiedly: "At the foot of Qishan Mountain, twenty miles outside the city, when he was found, he was hanging upside down from a tree, and his blood had dried up. ”

After listening to his description, the other three were shocked.

At the same time, they thought of what was happening in Zhangcheng, and it was actually such a way to die.

But Zhangcheng and Wulu City are thousands of miles apart, how can there be the same murder method?

"Before that, the same way of dying happened in Wuhu City?" Jin Lingluo looked at the official and asked.

The official suddenly felt a chill in his back, and he didn't dare to look directly, so he lowered his head and replied: "No, we were also taken aback when we went to look for someone today. ”

This is the first time this has happened, and what does it mean?

The blue baby pursed his lips, will it be like Zhangcheng, where he will also be "condemned by the mountain god"?

Zheng Huaiqi was physically handicap, but he still insisted on going to the yamen to claim the body.

However, because of Sheng Qiwen's strange death, the body still needs to be left in the yamen to wait for an autopsy.

There is a jewelry store of the Sheng family in Wuhua City, and this time Zheng Huaiqi followed his uncle out, in addition to discussing business, he also checked the accounts of shops in various places.

Now that his uncle died tragically, Zheng Huaiqi blamed himself and hurriedly wrote a letter to inform the people of the Sheng family.

And he himself didn't want to disturb Jin Lingluo and Lan Baobao anymore, so he proposed to go to the Sheng family's - Sappo Pavilion.

He has the token of the Sheng family on him, and the shopkeeper of the Sheng Treasure Pavilion naturally does not dare to slack off.

As soon as Zheng Huaiqi left, Lan Baobao thought of their way again, and couldn't help asking: "Your Highness, are we staying here waiting for the news of Big Brother Feng?" Or go to Guangling City first? ”

Or do you want to stay here and find out what's going on in the city?

She didn't ask the last one, because she felt that it was similar to the first one, and in the end it was all about to stay.

"Wait and see." Jin Lingluo replied.

Baby Blue understood that this meant to stay, and then she asked a stupid question: "Did that person change back into men's clothes?" Or do you want to continue like this? ”

Jin Lingluo turned his head to look at her a few times, seemed to be satisfied, and said, "Go on." ”

Blue Baby pursed her lips in resignation, her mode of being a man and a woman at this time is not easy to switch. Just because of the different mannerisms and demeanors between men and women, it is difficult for her to switch freely.

King Ling watched the changes, he really watched the changes, this time he no longer took the initiative to investigate the cause of Sheng Qiwen's death, nor did he go to Zheng Huaiqi to inquire about the situation, nor did he go to the government again. I stayed in the inn all day, and during lunch, I went downstairs to the lobby to eat and listen to the diners around me discuss things in the city.

Among them, the most discussed is Sheng Qiwen's case, but these people only know one or the other, and a lot of the news is also hearsay, not serious, only for after-dinner conversation.

The blue baby listened to the two, and the rumors always revolved around Sheng Qiwen's death, without any useful new clues.

It wasn't until the third time that there was finally a different topic.

"I heard that the government has arrested the three masters of Liesun Castle."

"Not only is the Scorching Sun Fort, there are several bandit dens outside the city that are attached to the Scorching Sun Fort, all of which have been investigated by the government."

"The government even dares to arrest the three masters of the Burning Sun Castle, I don't hear that this is a master to be messed with, there must be a hundred and ten lives under his hands, but the government just can't do anything about him. Over the years, the Scorching Sun Fort has burned, killed and looted outside the city, and killed many innocent people, but isn't it still rampant in the world every day. ”

"I heard that there is a big official from the capital, can our lackluster Zhou Thorn Shi not be in a hurry? This time, the three masters of the Scorching Sun Fort were arrested, maybe they were caught for others to see. ”

"How did I hear that the outsider who died two days ago seems to have something to do with Burning Sun Castle. Such a cruel way of killing, only the people of Burning Sun Castle dare to do this. ”

"Hey, I'm with you, that kind of death...... Not artificial. I have a relative who used to be from Zhangcheng, and a few years ago they died dozens of people there one after another, and guess what? When they found them, they were all hung upside down from a tree and bled to death. Later, it was rumored that it was the mountain god who condemned the crime to suck more than 100 Rong essence. ”

"The mountain god has sinned? It's nonsense, how come I haven't heard of this kind of thing. ”

"Don't you know Zhangcheng? Two years ago, the people there had emptied half of the city, and my relatives had come to my house, and I listened to them. They also said that this kind of thing was too evil for people who came out of Zhangcheng to dare to publicize it. ”

"Then why did he tell you?"
