Chapter 322: A Man with Strange Deeds
This day is the day when the people of Minzhen go to Liangzhou City to catch the market, although the current Liangzhou City is not as prosperous as more than a year ago, but compared with the scale of Minzhen Town, it is still more desirable, so the people of Minzhen are looking forward to the day of the market.
As soon as the morning fell, the sky spit out the white of the fish's belly, and July was already standing at the door.
The owner of the tea stall also came, and saw July staring at the back of the pedestrians in the distance, thinking that she was curious about the scenery of Liangzhou City, thinking that young people would always be a little more curious than the elderly, and July should obviously be a playful age, so he hesitated to give July a day off: "July, if you want to follow them to the market, then you can go, there are no guests at the tea stalls now, I can cope with it myself." ”
July's eyes lit up.
She was reluctant to stay at the tea stall not because she didn't want to serve customers, but because she might not get useful information if she stayed at the tea stall.
The people in this town obviously have a special relationship with those mountain bandits, and July is afraid that his identity will be revealed, so he has not dared to make a move, and even when he was investigating, he changed his hand in the middle of the night......
Now, if you can go out for a walk with the excuse of looking around, maybe it won't arouse the suspicion of others!
July's mind moved slightly, and he hesitated and asked the boss: "Then I will take a day off today." ”
The boss smiled and waved his hand: "Go, go, go." ”
It is said that the owner of the courtyard went to the capital a few years ago, and has not yet returned, and before leaving, he sold the house to the owner of the tea stall, and the owner saw that July was pitiful, so he let her live here.
Although the house has been uninhabited for many years, the house is not covered with any dust because the proprietress is more diligent.
July walked back to the courtyard to get the dagger he used for self-defense, and then left the town.
A mountain road not far from the town was discovered during an expedition one day in July.
The mountain road is very inconspicuous, it is hidden among the dense vegetation, unless someone leads the way, or someone has a sharp eye, no one will find its existence at all, and it is an accident that it can be seen in July.
July brushed aside the messy Cao Cao and swept his eyes over the mountain road.
Although this mountain road is not conspicuous, it looks like people often walk around, and there are many rut marks on the road, which is clearly someone who has done something with this mountain road.
Thinking of the words that the guests said when they dumped the boat and poured water in the teahouse some time ago, July suddenly thought of it.
Could this trail have something to do with the special soil they talk about?
It was uncertain where the mountain road would lead, and no one could be sure if the mountain road was completely safe, so July was a little hesitant, after all, the injuries on her body had not fully healed......
Just as July hesitated, a voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Why are your feet so slow, didn't you tell you a long time ago that things are important and you must move fast?" The extremely sharp voice said, "If you delay like this, you will miss the big thing of the adults, if something really goes wrong, don't blame me for blaming you for blaming the blame!" Don't hurry up yet! ”
Along with the sound of whips and the sound of wheels running over the road, it was clear that it was a team.
July hurriedly hid in the grass beside her, and then the lush grass and trees hid her figure, and at the same time, she also used her own eyes to observe the procession passing through the mountain road and passing the grass where she was hiding, only to see those people dressed in coarse linen clothes, dressed as ordinary people, their number was full of dozens, many of them were pulling a carriage, as if they were merchants, ready to transport things somewhere.
July kept an eye on it and secretly looked at the appearance of the gambling house.
These merchants are all strange-looking and tall, and they know at a glance that they are not from their country, and I am afraid that these people have something to do with the peace of the country, and even with the army that deliberately disguises itself as a bandit and wants to cause chaos in their country!
July squinted, wanting to wait for the other party to leave and quietly follow.
But he didn't want the other party to go halfway down the road, and suddenly turned back as if he suddenly remembered something.
"What's wrong?" The man dressed as a small guy patted the man who had stopped on the shoulder.
"I always felt like somebody was behind us."
The other person didn't care at all, only thought that his companion was joking: "When has this been, and you still want to tease me, there is no way that anyone is in this kind of forest, it must be that you have been too tired to rush recently, so you are hallucinating!" ”
"I really feel it!"
"Like this kind of deep mountains and old forests, who can be willing to follow us, you can't be talking about mountain ghosts, I have indeed heard of the legend that mountain ghosts like to follow behind pedestrians and quietly take their lives, but I haven't seen it, presumably those are just legends! Hey, don't think any further, instead of wondering if there is anyone behind you, think about where we're going and where we can go along this road. ”
"You'll know when you get there! Don't ask again! ”
Watching the team drift away, July slowly stood up, his brown eyes full of confusion, where are these people going?
July decisively decided to follow, because of the large number of opponents, the speed of action was not very fast, so July quickly followed them, and quietly followed behind the other party and listened to their conversations.
After walking like this for a while, the team's destination was finally reached.
July quietly touched a nearby tree and took advantage of the opportunity to observe the movement not far away.
As far as the eye could see, where the procession had stopped, there was a huge pothole, and beside the pit were many tents, and people dressed in coarse linen walked among them, pushing black things with carts from time to time.
The things were piled up like hills, and from time to time people took them into the tents, and it was not known what they were doing with the black and gray objects.
July wants to investigate, but there are too many people, and if she rushes over, I'm afraid it will arouse the other party's alarm.
After weighing the pros and cons, she decided to get out of here first.
It just so happened that I was going to Liangzhou City to meet Wan Bingyu today, so I simply reported this matter to her.
July thought as he quietly retreated.
When she returned to Minzhen, there happened to be a carriage ready to go to Liangzhou City, and July made some silver to get the coachman to agree to take her for a ride, and the group hurried to Liangzhou City, and as soon as July arrived at the place, they walked in the direction of Yamen.
"May I ask Brother Guancha, is Lord Heng Xin Yuanheng in the house?"
The official was stunned: "No, Lord Heng has not been to the yamen today, if you want to see him, go directly to his house to find someone." ”
