Chapter 2 Human Skin
Jing Liang told himself a family matter.
As a hundred horsemen, you can't start a family. But Jing Liang is now the Shaoqing of the Demon Hunting Division, so naturally there is no need to worry about that.
The other party is a female steward in the case of the Demon Hunting Division, and the two often meet on weekdays, and this back and forth is actually good.
This is an interesting anecdote, since the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty, female officials have entered various yamen, and it is the first time that male officials and female officials have been married.
The two are scheduled to get married in the spring, so everything is still in the process of preparation.
For this reason, Jing Liang deliberately took out his private money and bought a house in Jishanfang, of course, he also borrowed a lot of money from Tang Yun.
Jing Liang is now full of spring breeze, and he smiles when he sees everyone, which is very different from his solemn expression on weekdays.
Now that the weather is getting colder, Jing Liang is ready to prepare a pair of winter clothes for his fiancΓ©e to keep out the cold.
It didn't happen to be Jing Liang's turn today, so he took the silver he had prepared a long time ago and went out to buy clothes.
If you want to buy a good fox fur, going to Nanshi is the best choice. There are a lot of cloth mills there, and there are even more choices.
For a 10,000-year-old straight man of steel, Jing Liang obviously doesn't know how to please girls. But fortunately, the housekeeper is also from a martial arts background, and for them, things like clothes are much more real than some flowers, calligraphy and paintings.
Before he went out, Fang San's voice came from the wall: "Brother Jing, my lord told me, let you not go too far." Wait until the evening to have a job for you to run. β
Fang San, this kid, was squatting by the wall, holding a sugar gourd that he had snatched from nowhere.
Seeing him, Jing Liang was angry for no reason.
At that time, when Jing Liang and the female steward were doing you and me, they happened to be bumped into by this Fang San.
Even the insight of Captain Jing Liangbaiqi didn't notice how he sneaked into his side.
By the time I found out, it was too late.
Once Fang San knew, the entire Demon Hunting Division would know about it the next day. Later, even other acquaintances in the yamen also greeted Jing Liang and congratulated him.
Jing Liang is used to it, so it doesn't matter. But the female steward is different, she is a woman after all, and her skin is relatively thin-skinned, so she has been staying in the case vault and no longer going out.
Jing Liang grabbed Fang San by the collar and pulled him down, and said angrily, "You don't go to training, what are you doing here?" Aren't you afraid that the captain I told you would let you be beaten by the board? β
Fang San pursed his lips and said, "Isn't it just to kill a few dog demons, it's easy." I had already done it, and Fang Wu and Fang Qi still couldn't do it. β
At this moment, Fang Wu and Fang Qi ran over.
Fang Wu pointed at Fang San and shouted, "Fang San, you lie to me again!" deliberately took me away, and then snatched my sugar gourd. β
"Brother Jing, we'll see you later!" Fang San hurriedly broke free of Jing Liang's hand and ran away.
"This kid ......" Jing Liang shook his head helplessly.
Jing Liang went to the place where he bought clothes, and there were many people who came to buy at this time.
He deliberately didn't wear an official uniform, just a brocade robe on his body, but he was already burly, and he wore the originally elegant brocade clothes into the feeling of a bandit.
When he got here, Jing Liang discovered a problem.
He doesn't pick clothes at all.
Jing Liang always wore official uniforms or armor, but men and women bought different clothes. Jing Liang was sure that if he gave the pure black robe in front of him to the housekeeper, it would definitely cause a joke.
Which one should you choose?
Jing Liang fell into deep thought, but soon, the men in the cloth workshop saw Jing Liang's embarrassment.
"This lord is here to choose clothes for his wife, right?" The guy asked with a smile.
Jing Liang coughed: "Yes, do you have any good goods here, take them all out and I'll take a look!" β
The man smiled: "This lord, the clothes of the women here are all sold upstairs. You can follow me upstairs. β
Jing Liang followed the guy up, and sure enough, it was all women's clothes.
In the pre-Qin period, cloth mills generally only sold cloth, not ready-to-wear.
It was only after the establishment of the Great Zhou Dynasty that the traditional tailor shops and cloth villages gradually formed such cloth workshops. Most people still buy cloth and sew it at home, but more people choose to buy ready-to-wear garments.
Most of the clothes here are very gorgeous, and some of the cloth is even embroidered with flowers and butterflies.
The guy smiled and said, "This master, take the liberty of asking, your lady doesn't know if there are sizes that can be compared?" β
Jing Liang thought about it for a moment and shook his head, he really hadn't asked.
The guy said: "It's better to buy a fox fur, now that the weather is getting colder, there is a fox fur to keep warm." If it's a size, you can probably buy a similar one. β
Jing Liang's eyes lit up, and he slapped his face and said, "Yes, that's it!" β
The guy took Jing Liang to the place where the fox fur was sold.
Each fox fur was placed in a conspicuous position, and Jing Liang took a fancy to one of the plain white fox furs at a glance.
"This is good, this is it!" Jing Liang stroked the material and exclaimed.
The guy hurriedly said: "The guest officer has good eyesight, this is made of fine fur." The small ones are folded for you. β
The guy was just talking, and suddenly a scream came from behind the hanger.
The scream was sudden, followed by a rush of footsteps.
Jing Liang was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously stretched his hand back.
The hand stopped halfway, and Jing Liang remembered that he didn't bring a knife today.
What the hell is going on?
Jing Liang walked to the place where the screaming occurred, and just saw a group of women running quickly, and one of them still screamed.
A fox fur fell from the ground, and it looked like it should have been dropped when the woman was looking at it.
Jing Liang picked it up, but as soon as he started it, he felt that something was not quite right.
It's definitely not the soft touch of fox fur.
Jing Liang turned the fox fur over, and he happened to see an extremely terrifying scene.
He saw a face.
The outlines of the eyes, nose, ears, and mouth are clearly visible.
It's a human skin.
The entire inside of the fox fur is all made of human skin!
No wonder the women fled in a panic, it turned out that they saw such a scene.
Jing Liang unfolded all the fox furs nearby, and sure enough, he found that several of them had human skins.
These skins are hidden inside the cloth and are difficult to spot from the outside.
The guy ran over, just in time to see a human skin in a fox fur facing him, and immediately screamed: "Ghost." Then he ran backwards.
Jing Liang grabbed him, took out his waist card from his arms and showed it to the guy.
Jing Liang said in a deep voice; "Call your shopkeeper out!"
The guy hurriedly ran over, but at this moment, suddenly there was another scream.
The guy ran out in a panic, saw Jing Liang, and shouted, "Shopkeeper...... The shopkeeper is dead! β
