Chapter 160: There is a turning point
Updated: 2013-08-31
Wan Qiliang returned to the inn, a man who eats human flesh, a cook who is a human flesh, Wan Qiliang feels that the people in the city lord's mansion are like crazy, if such a strange environment can come out of normal people, she will feel abnormal.
Wei didn't expect Wan Qiliang to come back so soon, but it didn't seem that he had gained anything, so he couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Pavilion Master, have you found anything wrong?" ”
"The situation I found was not what I wanted, someone in the City Lord's Mansion was eating human flesh, this is the first time I've seen such a situation."
After listening to what Wan Qiliang said, he was also shocked in his heart, but he had heard that someone had such a hobby before, but he didn't expect that everyone in the City Lord's Mansion would have this hobby.
"That'...... Got a piano master? "Shadow Night and Shadow Ripple have also been investigating, but there is no excuse, and both of them have pinned their hopes on the Pavilion Master.
"I didn't find him, and I didn't get any clues about him." Although Wan Qiliang didn't want to admit it, but this was the case, she didn't even see the shadow of Qin Jiatian when she sneaked in this time, how could she find him?
"So what should we do now?" There was no result in the pursuit of the spirit, and everyone's state was in a slump, maybe they were in the wrong direction from the beginning, but what kind of direction should be suitable for them?
"Continue to investigate, by the way, there is a man in the City Lord's Mansion who has lost half of his face, you go and inquire who that person is." Wan Qiliang really can't forget the existence of such a person, he impressed her too deeply, if she knew his identity, maybe things would break through.
A man without half a face? Wei shuddered when he thought about it, fortunately it was just his face, if he didn't have half a head, would this person still be alive? Presumably, such a person should be easy to find, but Wei has asked almost every household in the city, and he has never heard of it, or he has never remembered that such a person has appeared, can it be said that he has never come out of the city lord's mansion?
Wei told Wan Qiliang the results of the investigation, and he felt that it should be inseparable from his incompetence, but Wan Qiliang didn't say anything to him, as if he had expected it a long time ago, and he didn't have a surprised expression.
"Send someone to the City Lord's Mansion to keep an eye on it, and if there is any suspicious person who comes out, follow it, but don't be discovered." Wan Qiliang did this just in case, presumably that person really wouldn't go out of the City Lord's Mansion, like him, it can definitely make people unforgettable, and even frighten children.
"Yes, my subordinates understand." Such orders have been similar for a long time, maybe the goal is different, but they have completely become people who spy on others, especially the City Lord's Mansion who feels completely unpopular, and it seems that the Pavilion Lord must have really found something terrible there.
There are strange things every year, there are a lot of them this year, and the unlucky ones have been met by Wan Qiliang, she recalled that she entered the City Lord's Mansion so easily yesterday, and saw something that shouldn't be seen, will the man who sang find out that she is there, so he gave her a look, maybe it's a warning? But even if there was no such process, Wan Qiliang would not have visited the City Lord's Mansion again in the past few days, and the place she was going to now was much more dangerous than there - the mountain behind the City Lord's Mansion, the place full of curses.
This time Wan Qiliang didn't choose the night again, although there were few people at night, and it was relatively hidden to do something, but at the same time, the fear brought by the darkness slowly began to be more and more thorough, no matter how she said that she was a woman, and the things she saw in the City Lord's Mansion still have lingering palpitations, she didn't want to experience the same terrifying thing repeatedly, so this time she acted extremely openly.
There were several families living at the foot of the mountain, and when Wan Qiliang went to inquire about the things on the mountain, they all hid and hid without talking about it, and those who were kind told her not to go up the mountain, even if she really wanted to go up the mountain, she must not cross the halfway up the mountain, otherwise she would collide with the soul on the mountain, and she would not die.
Wan Qiliang had heard this say before he came, and the supernatural story of the back mountain was publicized too much by some people, and it was true that someone died, but not everyone on the mountain would die, after all, there were still a lot of rare medicinal materials on this mountain, and if someone wanted to make a fortune, they naturally didn't want anyone else to come to get a piece of the pie, so most of those gods and things were made up by people, and the three of them became tigers, and gradually people really believed it.
Wan Qiliang could feel that when she came to the bottom of the mountain, someone was quietly following her, presumably those unscrupulous elements, she insisted on going up the mountain, this group of people didn't know her purpose, just in case, naturally they had to keep an eye on her all the time, so as not to cause any chaos.
As a result, what they didn't worry about was that even the tea he drank was drugged, and the amount was not much, but if she was really a defenseless weak woman, I am afraid that she would be in a wolf's den now, Wan Qiliang was too lazy to pretend to be delicate this time, and after drinking a few sips of tea, she didn't pretend to have any adverse reactions, and went up the mountain directly, and someone looked at her back thoughtfully.
The road on the mountain is not difficult to walk, and it is not difficult to see that there are always people who go up the mountain along this road, otherwise they will not have no grass, they are all trampled by the people who go up the mountain, they don't necessarily want to do anything when they come here, but for sure, they all go up the mountain.
Wan Qiliang has been walking up the mountain road, a woman, a woman who looks very weak, took the risk to walk on this mountain full of curses, in the eyes of those who care, this is not only an opportunity, but also an affair, how can a reckless man who is usually five big and three rough have seen such a beautiful woman with a beautiful woman? When I have a little spare money in my hand, I have contributed it to the Qinglou and the brothel, but the women there are all a little lip taste, and this little lady looks much cleaner.
"Does the little lady want to go up the mountain? It's so dangerous here, it's better to go home with Uncle Ben and be happy. "A few big men jumped out of the grass, usually they are ambushed here to rob money, but I didn't expect to rob a robbery today, their brothers are really a blessing.
Wan Qiliang stood there, coldly looking at the three bandits in front of her, she had already noticed that they were nearby, and such a thick& turbid aura probably emanated from them, could it be that there was no water on this mountain, so she didn't bathe people?
The three of them saw that Wan Qiliang didn't move, thinking that she was scared silly, and approached her while smiling evilly, one hand was about to reach Wan Qiliang's face, but they still didn't see Wan Qiliang's movements, and the person with bad intentions had already fallen to the ground screaming, and the other two people didn't know what was going on at all, and stood in place in a daze.
"It's a little thing to be stupid? You're probably too useless. Wan Qiliang smiled disdainfully, the sword in his hand was already close to the neck of another person, and the rest was put down by Wan Qiliang with drugs in an instant.
"Do you still want me to be happy with you?" The man was already so frightened that he knelt on the ground, and out of the instinct of survival, as soon as Wan Qiliang spoke, he began to kowtow and beg for mercy.
"The woman spares her life, the woman spares her life." The shrunken body is accompanied by the constant begging for mercy, Wan Qiliang hates such a spineless man the most, but saying that a person is in the face of death, backbone is actually nothing, if you can keep your own life, stay in the green mountains, and are not afraid of no firewood, aren't there many people who have such a mentality that it doesn't matter as long as they live?
"As long as you answer my questions obediently, I won't do anything to you." The title of heroine is really inappropriate for her, and she doesn't like it.
"Woman, please ask, the little one will definitely tell the woman if he knows something." As soon as he hears that there is a glimmer of life, of course men must seize the opportunity, otherwise it will be too miserable to be like their companions.
"Has anyone been to Houshan lately?" Wan Qiliang asked lightly, but the man didn't know what she wanted to know, so he could only answer truthfully.
"There are people who go up the mountain every day, I don't know what kind of person the woman is looking for?" The man is right, they wait here every day for the people who go up the mountain, and when they meet someone who looks rich, they rob people together, sometimes accidentally killed, and there is also the curse of the back mountain, anyway, they have not walked halfway up the mountain, and the curse cannot fall on their heads.
"It doesn't look like a local, a man dressed in fancy clothes, maybe there are other people with him." Wan Qi paused for a moment, she didn't know how to describe Youqin Jiatian, maybe she should have made a portrait in between.
Saying this, the man really didn't have any impression for a while, and he was afraid that his hesitation would annoy the woman in front of him, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "Woman, there are also high-ranking officials and nobles who go up the mountain, I don't know what kind of woman is looking for?" ”
"Tell me if anything strange happened in the mountains in the past two days?"
Strange things? The man forced himself to think about it quickly, but it turned out that there was a flash of inspiration, there was really something quite strange, that day they were ambushed here as usual, and saw a carriage driving up from the bottom of the mountain, like this weird place, how could someone drive the carriage up so blatantly, maybe it was a rich man from other places who didn't know anything, they might be able to take the opportunity to make a lot of money, but what they didn't expect was that they stopped the carriage, but the carriage was empty, not even a groom, so how did the carriage come up? The more they thought about it, the more frightened they became, and they ran away without a trace, and never saw the carriage again.
"Are you really sure there's no one in the carriage?" After listening to what the man said, Wan Qiliang was not sure if the cat in it was related to Qin Jiatian, but she would rather believe it than believe it, and now as long as there is a little clue, she is very content.
"Xiao is sure, these two people were also present at the time, if the woman doesn't believe it, you can ask them." The man nodded vigorously, for fear that Wan Qiliang would not believe that he would solve him directly by mistake, then he would die unjustly, but fortunately, Wan Qiliang did not do that, but with a knife in his hand, the man fell asleep.
Wan Qiliang looked at the top of the mountain, this trip could not be avoided......
