This undoubtedly gave Gu Congyuan a rather difficult question for him to answer.

Gu Congyuan took a sip of tea: "Yao'er, your question is unreasonable, you asked Hongluan and Xiangxiang to ask what you think, you directly asked me how this was caused, aren't you kidding?" We're just here, so how do I know so many questions? ”

"Oops," Lu Yao directly hugged Gu Congyuan's arm, "Isn't this different?" Who are you, Lord Cong, a very smart, very smart, super smart person, how can these things be difficult for you? If you can tell us now, analyze and analyze, then we can avoid some detours? ”

Lu Yao's sugar-coated shells are really used repeatedly, but for Lu Yao, this trick is not old or new, as long as it works.

Gu Congyuan sighed: "Even if it's what you say, then you have to wait until you understand it." ”

"But so far I'm thinking the same as you, this must be someone behind the scenes, I don't think it has anything to do with ghosts and gods."

"That's right," Lu Yao was a little dissatisfied, "Actually, I can't understand the current people, this kind of thing has happened, obviously I should have been investigating, and I will always be able to investigate a result, how can I give up after investigating?" How can we know the final answer? It's really too undeserved. ”

"Princess, in fact, you can't say that."

Hongluan couldn't help but speak: "If it was in Kyoto, then there would definitely be a lot of people to investigate this matter, but now we are not in Kyoto, this is just a small place, and even what materials and talented people must be a minority, and they dare to investigate several times is actually very telling." ”

"So now they really have no choice, so they changed to vegetarianism and stopped investigating, and at the same time, the arrival of the prince and the princess is definitely not accidental, isn't this a lucky star sent by God? They must be too late to be happy by the time they came to solve this problem for them. ”

"And the shopkeeper is obviously very supportive of the prince and the princess to investigate this matter, if it is someone else, I am afraid that they will find some excuse and let us leave, after all, now that there are these things, they may also be affected, so the slave thinks that they still want to know the truth behind this matter, and you don't have to think so much."

"Princess, princess, slave maid thinks that the top priority now is to investigate this matter clearly and see what is the reason behind it, as for anything else, don't talk about anything else, after all, in a small place, where can so many good things happen?"

These words are reasonable, and Lu Yao's eyes are different when he looks at Hongluan: "Hongluan, I didn't expect it, you still have your own opinions on these things, it's good, it's good." ”

Of course, Lu Yao was even happier in his heart because he was surprised, because this Hongluan had always been by his side, and he was sure that her influence was crucial to her, and sure enough, it was close to Zhu Zhe Chi, and close to Mo was black, and people close to her now have unique opinions, which is really a good thing.

Of course, another manifestation of this matter is that people are now super able to talk, and Hongluan is blessed with a blessed body.

"The relationship between the slave and the maid and the slave and the maid and the slave and the maid can have today's insights is inseparable, because of your edification, the slave and the maid will have such an opinion, and the slave and the maid should also thank the princess."

The original discussion meeting turned out to be a meeting between the master and the servant, which is really embarrassing.

Just then, the door was slammed, and the guards who had been sent to investigate the information returned.

"How? Did the investigation come out of anything? ”

Lu Yao asked in front of Gu Congyuan first, but Gu Congyuan was not dissatisfied, and looked leisurely.

"Report to the princess, now it has been found out."

Before he finished speaking, he was stopped by Lu Yao: "Have you forgotten all of them one or two?" We are merchants, merchants, just merchants who want to go to the Western Regions, not some prince and princess, why can't you remember one or two? ”

"Do you know how troublesome it will be for us to leak our identities? Do you want to be greeted by a whole bunch of people every time you go to a place, and then you get into trouble? ”

In fact, after announcing their identities, the treatment they received has risen in a straight line, but on this matter, Lu Yao and Gu Congyuan's opinions have reached a consensus, that is, they will not announce their identities, so that they can be more relaxed along the way, and at the same time, they can also see the local customs.

If they had announced their identities at the beginning, I'm afraid they wouldn't have heard what they had just said, this person would have a sense of awe for people with high status, and he was unwilling to say what he really thought, in fact, this is very normal, and basically everyone will have this kind of thought, and it will not change.

"Yes, ma'am."

The guard immediately changed his words: "I went to investigate just now, and a total of eighteen people died, three families, respectively engaged in clothing, restaurants and jewelry stores, after their deaths, there was a lot of turmoil in this town, and now there is no place to sell these things in this town for the time being." ”

Originally, it was a small place, there were not so many people, naturally it was basically one store per person, and others almost would not open these stores, but now these stores are gone, which is undoubtedly affected.

"No," Lu Yao said hurriedly, "Aren't we in a restaurant here?" How can you say that there is no place for sale? ”

"I was wrong just now, this restaurant was opened decades ago, and no one is curious about this matter, and it has always been a regular channel to purchase, so this matter has not affected this restaurant, but other places have been affected."

"That's not right," Lu Yao immediately found a flaw in it, "If the restaurant is because of the supply problem, then what are the jewelry stores and ready-to-wear stores for?" Will they still be quarreled over the meat? Isn't that abnormal? ”

"It is rumored that the owner of the ready-to-wear store and the owner of the jewelry store both know each other, and the two of them made an appointment to go hunting together, so it caused a catastrophe, and now there is no one alive in the two families, and the owner of the restaurant has also passed away, and there is no master, so there is no other store now."

Only then did she nod thoughtfully: "Then it's no wonder that when we came here just now, we didn't see any shops along the way, so did you ask what happened to the wood we saw when we came here just now?"

"Wood?"

Lu Yao was a little curious: "What kind of wood, why don't we know." ”

"Madame and Master are in the carriage, so naturally they don't know," she replied, and then looked at the guard, "What are those timbers for, and which one is going to build a house?" ”

The guard shook his head: "It's not that someone wants to build a house, but someone is renovating and opening a store." ”

"Open a store?"

Gu Congyuan's brows furrowed: "It's all this time, and there are still people who want to open a store?" This is really strange, so have you asked clearly, what kind of store does the other party want to open? ”

"This subordinate doesn't know."

When facing Gu Congyuan, this guard really didn't dare to call himself me, so he had to say that he was a subordinate.

"Okay, you go investigate it now, and when you know the results, you can come and tell us."

"Yes."

After the guards went out, the mystery was getting deeper and deeper, and just now it seemed as if they had already caught something, but now all of them are gone, but a new mystery is ushered in.

"What the hell is going on with all this, how can I not understand it the more I look at it?"

Lu Yao tried his best to use his brain, but he really couldn't think of any ideas: "You see, why is there nothing wrong with this ordinary family, but there are people who open a store who have suffered, and the owner of this store has not suffered." ”

"Was this intentional or coincidental? I really can't find the answer right now, and the guy who is about to open the store, does it really have nothing to do with him? ”

"Don't enable associative thinking yet," Gu Congyuan patted Lu Yao on the shoulder, "We've just come here now, and we don't know anything yet, so how can we judge this final cause and effect?" ”

"What's more, we can't just because it's all the shops that have accidents, and then there is a person who has opened a store, then we can't help but have doubts, this is unfair, and it will also lead us into a misunderstanding, so we can't do this, we have to wait now, and then wait until there is the truth, when we know all this, to talk about these things, it's too early to say anything."

Gu Congyuan's words were recognized by Lu Yao: "I know what you said is right, but I just can't control my emotions, and I don't know what is going on in my mind, I just want to know these things quickly, otherwise I am really about to be depressed to death, aren't you curious?" ”

"Of course I'm curious," Gu Congyuan nodded, "But even if I'm curious now, then I don't have any other way, what we can do now is only wait, wait until this matter gives us an ending, you don't have to worry, there will be no problem, you have to believe it." ”

Lu Yao pouted and nodded: "Okay, okay, then just follow what you said, I'm not in a hurry, you don't have to say anything, let's wait quietly for an answer together." ”

Although he said this, everyone's hearts were still a little heavy, and no matter what, these eighteen lives would not come back.
