At noon, almost all of the stalls in this alley brought their own rations, and they didn't plan to go to the nearby restaurant to have a good meal.

At this time, it is also the best time for stall households, although the customers are not endless, but the income of the day depends on the short noon.

Lao Liu, like the rest of the stall households, took out dry food from his pocket and ate it by himself, steamed steamed buns in the morning, and at noon, they tasted just behind, soft and not hot, and in summer, they had to eat more cold.

Cool tofu is actually very delicious, but Lao Liu himself is a tofu seller, so it's not very decent.

There are many people who come to this alley to buy vegetables at noon, some of them are ordinary people living here, and some of them are distant people who come to work abroad.

Even some of the ruffians and hooligans will come to this market to buy vegetables and then go home to cook.

Yuan Lin and Jiang Ling simply changed their appearance and also came to this alley.

If you look too good, there are actually a lot of inconveniences when you go out, and if you just show off your appearance and get a sense of vanity that satisfies you, most of them are young people who don't have serious things.

People like Yuanlin and Jiang Ling appear in the downtown area, which will naturally attract the attention of many people, Yuanlin is an out-and-out beautiful man, Jiang Ling also has the appearance of a captivating city, appearing in the downtown area, if it is not easy to tolerate, it will inevitably cause extraneous branches.

The two came to Lao Liu, who bought tofu.

Lao Liu has an old face, cloudy old eyes, and is hunched over.

Dressed in coarse linen clothes, such an old man came to such a place to sell tofu in order to make a living, which gave people a somewhat sad feeling.

Yuan Lin stepped forward and asked in a steady tone, "How do you sell the old man's tofu?"

Lao Liu raised his head, revealing the standard smiling face of a small merchant and a hawker, and said a little restrainedly: "I'm really sorry son, today's tofu has been booked in advance, and the guests will come to pick it up later, which is really not convenient." ”

Yuan Lin smiled and said: "It's okay, I originally wanted to contribute one or two to the old man's money bag, since that's the case, then I'll go first, so I have to go to another house to have a look." ”

Lao Liu nodded again and again, and said the word embarrassed in a row.

Yuanlin had no choice but to take Jiang Ling and go somewhere else to buy tofu.

At an old woman who was over half a hundred years old, she bought two catties of tofu, and when she went back, she deliberately passed through Lao Liu's place, so that Lao Liu could see that she really came to buy tofu.

Jiang Ling held Yuan Lin's arm, and Yuan Lin was holding tofu in his other hand.

Yuan Lin smiled and said, "I don't know if you are familiar with the dish of mapo tofu?"

Jiang Ling leaned on Yuan Lin's shoulder slightly, and replied softly: "It's okay, tofu is easy to become tofu slag, I don't have a good grasp of the heat of the mapo tofu dish, but I can't eat dead people." ”

Yuan Lin was helpless: "Look at you naughty." ”

Jiang Ling grinned and said: "It seems that we are here in this old man's house, and we have not obtained any useful information, are we a little frustrated, we have been here for a while, and there has been no progress for a long time, will the palace be a little disappointed with the two of us?"

Yuan Lin shook his head and said: "It's not like this, it's normal to be in a hurry to eat hot tofu for such a thing as spying on the enemy." ”

"If we're here for most of the year and there's no progress, it's really a bit of a stretch, but today, it's not like there's no progress. ”

Jiang Ling blinked his beautiful eyes and said, "How do you say this." ”

The two of them unknowingly, bought tofu and returned to the post station, in fact, there are still many dishes in the kitchen, and they don't necessarily have to eat tofu, but Yuanlin wants to eat Jiang Ling's tofu, but this unreasonable request, Yuanlin is embarrassed to say it directly.

Therefore, it is a dilemma.

Yuan Lin said: "That old man, in my opinion, is a scout, a connector, hidden in the vegetable market. ”

"What we asked at first wasn't quite right, there should be a code word, but we don't know what that code word is, and there may be other ingredients in the old man's tofu. ”

Jiang Ling reacted.

"Then what should we do, continue to look for this clue, or let it go for the time being, and see when the old man's tofu will be sold?"

Yuan Lin said: "I'm also a little embarrassed, just if I squat, the scout is generally the least afraid of being squatted by others and waiting for the rabbit, if the old man is directly arrested, if he is tortured, the old man will not explain anything." ”

"Both, that old man, is not necessarily a real old man, and for a person who is proficient in disguise techniques, it is not a strange thing for a thirty-year-old to become an old man in his sixties and seventies. ”

Jiang Ling said: "Then aren't we helpless?"

Yuan Lin said: "Not necessarily, if the road of squatting is not passable, then you have to follow the vine to touch the melon, after the old man sells the tofu, he always has to go home, follow the old man back home, see what the old man's home has, such as secret letter, secret grid, etc., maybe you will know a little more." ”

"If the old man burns all the clues with candles, then we will deliberately leave a letter in the old man's house, and then see what the old man's reaction is. ”

Jiang Ling said gently: "Therefore, it is not necessarily useful for suspicious scouts, their anti-reconnaissance ability is still very strong." ”

Yuan Lin said: "Then it depends on what the situation is tonight." ”

Jiang Ling smiled softly.

I didn't plan to eat mapo tofu, but after I bought it, I put it in the kitchen, and at night, it should be cold tofu.

In the evening, Lao Liu began to close the stall, and his tofu was indeed booked, and today, it was all sold out.

Carrying a flat burden, his steps were steady, and after leaving the alley, he went directly to the east, this town, which was only so big in the past, and the old man sold tofu here, and there must be a place to live near here.

On the roof of a restaurant, Yuan Lin and Jiang Ling appeared together, condescendingly watching the old man's way home at night.

It's heading towards the street to the north.

In the sky, I don't know when a meteor flashed, the old man raised his head, just saw this meteor, and then his steps suddenly accelerated, and then, riding the wind, towards the outskirts of the town.

is still carrying his own flat burden, but judging from the martial arts cultivation, this old man is at least around the elephant realm.

Yuan Lin looked at Jiang Ling's wonderful side face and said with a smile: "Our luck is not bad, just go and see it." ”

Lao Liu's speed of riding the wind is not very fast, but it is very close to the suburbs, and not only half a pillar of incense, but also came to the grove outside the town.

Here, there is a middle-aged man in his forties waiting for Lao Liu.

Middle-aged men don't have brocade clothes and jade belts, just plain clothes with good materials, which fit very well.

looks, like the head of a large family, with a calm bearing and bright eyes.

Lao Liu put down the flat burden in his hand, bowed slightly to the middle-aged man, and said, "The commander called me at night, what are your orders?"

The middle-aged man looked around and didn't find any suspicious people.

He said, "Has the Helian clan now sent troops along the Red River into the territory of Great Wei?"

Lao Liu Ying said: "Anyway, I left Great Xia along the Red River, I don't know where I went, and my subordinate martial arts cultivation is low, so I don't dare to pursue it too much." ”

"In this town, I found a lot of scouts of Great Wei. ”

"They are suspicious, and they are also trying to connect with the leader of the Helian clan, or rather, there are other ideas. ”

The middle-aged man said: "It's okay, it seems that whether Daxia will use troops against my Great Qin or against Great Wei, there is no direction for the time being, and it will only be done after the first battle of Old Xishu." ”

Lao Liu said: "Do your subordinates still want to stay in this town?"

The middle-aged man said, "Could it be that you feel that you have been exposed?"

Lao Liu suddenly remembered the pair of young men and women at noon, and he didn't care about this matter in his heart, but as a scout's instinctive reaction, Lao Liu felt that those two young people should be the same kind of people as himself.

Thinking about it, there is nothing to doubt either.

He replied to the middle-aged man: "Not for the time being, but there are mixed fish and dragons around, and I am afraid that sooner or later it will be exposed." ”

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "On the fifth day of the first month of next month, you can just leave here." ”

Lao Liu bowed slightly, and as soon as he raised his head, the middle-aged man in front of him had disappeared.

Secretly, Yuan Lin and Jiang Ling witnessed all this with their own eyes, they isolated their own breath, and the martial arts cultivation of middle-aged men was about to be around the Dao realm.

And Yuan Lin is in the Yuan Realm, and the Yuan Realm is snooping on the privacy of the Dao Realm, but it is easy to come by.

The two of them didn't plan to show up, and after the old man left here, Yuan Lin and Jiang Ling returned to the post station, mainly to see if there would be any other people coming here after Lao Liu left.

The groves outside the town seem to be places where spies connect, which is very much in line with the impression in the storyteller's mouth.

Jiang Ling said: "We can send a letter to the palace." ”

The Helian clan is the leading military family in Great Xia, and even the Helian clan led the army to set off, taking the waterway and now arriving in the territory of Great Wei, this news, for His Majesty today, it is not clear whether it is good news or not.

However, looking at the face of the Great Qin scout, Yuan Lin felt in his heart that this time, Bao Buqi was the Great Wei Monarch and the Great Xia Monarch, and they had a sneaky conversation.

Yuan Lin said: "Just tell the truth, let's not judge arbitrarily, speculate on the enemy situation, such a troublesome thing, or let Uncle Chen Yu do it." ”

The night is getting darker, and the grove is not a place to stay for long.
