Chapter 765: Something Bad Happens

There is only one lantern hanging next to the stables in the backyard, so the light is very dim. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

After Lan Changyi entered the backyard, he looked around vigilantly, and saw that there was no movement around, so he went straight to the firewood room.

Wu Zhiyuan hid in the corner of the side door, and saw the blue robe's movements clearly, and only after the blue robe opened the door of the firewood room and entered the firewood room, Wu Zhiyuan dodged into the backyard.

The firewood room is not big, with a door and a window, because the firewood room is just a place to stack firewood and grass after all, so the windows are a little shabby, just enough to shelter from the wind and rain.

Wu Zhiyuan crept to the window, wanting to look inside through the crack in the window lattice to see what the blue robe had in order to enter the firewood room. He walked to the window and had just leaned his eyes against the lattice when someone behind him tapped him on the shoulder.

Wu Zhiyuan was startled, and turned his head suddenly, it turned out to be an innkeeper.

The innkeeper carried a bucket in one hand and a bundle of hay in the other, and at first glance he knew that he had come to the stables to feed the horses.

"Uncle, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Wu Zhiyuan's panicked expression, the inn guy asked.

"Oh, that...... I went to the thatched house to ......" In a panic, Wu Zhiyuan found an excuse, but because it was too sudden, and he was afraid of being heard by the blue shirt in the firewood room, his words were still a little fragmented.

The innkeeper didn't know the hidden meaning of this, and pointed out with a smile: "Uncle, then you are in the wrong place, the thatched house is on the west side of the guest room corridor, and there are only horse sheds and firewood houses in the backyard." ”

Wu Zhiyuan heard the "oh" sound, smiled, and hurriedly left quickly, at this moment, the door of the firewood room was pushed open, and the blue robe walked out of it, just in time to meet Wu Zhiyuan.

The two glanced at each other, and the time of staring at each other was extremely short, but Wu Zhiyuan saw that this person had a white face and a delicate face, but there was a fierceness between his eyebrows, which was not the same as the ruthlessness of Nantianying, it was something that had been precipitated by countless experiences.

The innkeeper didn't expect a blue robe to suddenly come out of the firewood room, and asked in amazement, "Uncle, why did you come out of the firewood room?" Are you also looking for a thatched house? ”

Lan Changyi whispered "um", taking advantage of this time, Wu Zhiyuan walked quickly to the side door, turned into the corridor, and returned to his room.

After returning to the room, Wu Zhiyuan sat down at the table, and the scene of looking at Lan Changyi appeared in his mind again, and his intuition told him that the blue shirt might not recognize him, but the brief conversation he had with the inn guy outside the firewood room may have been heard by Lan Changsan who was in the firewood room. But the black light is blinding, what is the blue shirt doing in the firewood room?

Wu Zhiyuan originally planned to go out again to find Li San's room, but thinking of the situation where Fang had just looked at the blue robe in front of the firewood room, he dispelled the idea of going out. If he encounters Lan Changsan again, his identity will definitely be suspected, and it will be difficult to follow him in the future.

After thinking for a while, Wu Zhiyuan fell into a deep sleep on the bed, and slept until the next morning, when he was awakened by a knock on the door outside.

Wu Zhiyuan got up suddenly, listened carefully, it turned out to be a knock on the door from next door, he walked to the door, and heard the door next door "squeak" was opened, and a person's voice asked: "Shopkeeper, is there something wrong?" ”

Wu Zhiyuan was overjoyed in his heart, listening to this voice, it was Li San who opened the door!

Unexpectedly, Li San lived next door to him, Wu Zhiyuan never expected it to be such a coincidence.

I only heard the shopkeeper's voice and asked, "You are Li Sanye?" ”

"I just, what's the matter?" Li San's voice said.

"Li Sanye, someone came outside this morning and left this letter, saying that it must be delivered to you, I was afraid that the matter was urgent, so I sent it to you immediately." The shopkeeper said.

Li San's voice said: "I know, thank you shopkeeper." ”

"You're welcome." When the shopkeeper's words were finished, the footsteps faded away, and the door next door was closed.

Wu Zhiyuan secretly thought in his heart: "It's the shopkeeper's letter again." Li San said that the person who contacted him never appeared, and it was often either a beggar, or a letter from the innkeeper or the shopkeeper, could it be that this letter indicated the location of the buyer? ”

Thinking of this, Wu Zhiyuan quietly went out, walked to the next door, and knocked lightly on the door.

"Who is it?" Sure enough, Li San's voice came from inside.

"Big brother." Wu Zhiyuan responded softly.

The door was quickly opened, and Li San poked his head out to look left and right in the corridor, and pulled Li San into the room.

"We're going to fall through the cracks." Li San said in a low voice.

"Have our plans been discovered?" Wu Zhiyuan asked in astonishment, and the first thing that came to mind was the blue robe he met outside the door of the firewood room last night.

"Probably not." Li San speculated, said, and handed a piece of paper in his hand to Wu Zhiyuan, "Look at this letter." ”

Wu Zhiyuan took a look, only to see a few numbers written on it with a brush: "The goods are left in the inn, you lead everyone back to Qingdao, and there are other tasks to arrange." ”

"What about the three wooden boxes?" Wu Zhiyuan casually put the letter on the table and asked suspiciously.

Li San thought for a while and said, "Since the person who wrote the letter asked me to leave the goods at the inn, it means that someone will naturally come to pick it up." The person who comes to pick up the goods must be the next family. ”

"In this case, wouldn't we just not be able to know the identity of the next family? Is there no way to dig out the chain of this dirty deal? Wu Zhiyuan suddenly realized.

"That's right." Li San nodded thoughtfully.

"It's cunning." Wu Zhiyuan muttered resentfully.

Li San didn't answer, and was silent for a long time before he said puzzledly: "I'm wondering, why no matter where I go, this person who writes the letter seems to know everything well, and every one of his instructions is very timely, even in line with my actions, and will not let me take a detour." Could it be that this writer ......"

Before Li San's words were finished, Wu Zhiyuan suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly walked to the table and picked up the letter again, he wiped the ink on it with his fingers, although it was dry, but the edge of the handwriting was still slightly wet at the junction with the letter, obviously the letter had just been written.

"The ink hasn't dried yet, and this letter should have been written half an hour ago." Wu Zhiyuan concluded.

"It seems that my inference is correct." Li San looked at the ink on it and continued, "It is very likely that the person who wrote the letter has been secretly tracking our delivery team just like you. ”

As soon as Li San's voice fell, Wu Zhiyuan's back was faintly cool, so that he could follow Li San's transport team, and he might have been discovered by the person who wrote the letter.

It's really a praying mantis catching cicadas and yellow finches behind!

"What do we do now?" Wu Zhiyuan asked in a low voice.

Li San seemed to see the worry in Wu Zhiyuan's heart, and comforted: "There are people coming and going along the way, and you are following behind our team, and you may not have been noticed by the person who wrote the letter. Since I have been followed by the person who wrote the letter, I have to follow the instructions on the letter, and I will take you back to Qingdao today. ”

Wu Zhiyuan thought about it, felt that this idea was good, and hurriedly said: "Okay, you lead everyone back, I will stay in the inn, wait for the rabbit, and see where the three wooden boxes are sacred!" ”

"Okay, that's it." Li San said in a firm tone.

Wu Zhiyuan knew that it was not appropriate to stay in Li San's room for too long, so as not to be discovered by the blue robe, so he briefly discussed the plan, and left and returned to his room. He waited in the room for a while, and after a while he heard the sound of the door next door opening, and then heard Li San shouting at everyone to leave.

Li San is not a loud person, and the reason why he shouted loudly was to give Wu Zhiyuan a code.

But in a quarter of an hour, the footsteps of Li San and the others gradually faded away, and it was estimated that they had already left the inn, Wu Zhiyuan went out of the room, he had to find the location of the three wooden boxes first, and only in this way could he wait for the person who came to pick up the goods.

It just so happened that the innkeeper walked over from the east end of the corridor with a kettle, and because he had seen Wu Zhiyuan before, he hurriedly bent down to say hello.

Wu Zhiyuan saw that there was no one left and right, so he asked, "Little Second Brother, are the group of people who came last night driving a carriage?" ”

"yes." The innkeeper hurriedly replied.

"Do you know where the three wooden boxes on that carriage are now?" Wu Zhiyuan asked in a low voice, and at the same time leaned towards the inn guy, took out a few copper coins from his coat pocket, and stuffed them into the inn guy's hand.

The innkeeper hurriedly put the copper coins in his pocket and replied, "The three wooden boxes you mentioned are in the firewood room in the backyard." ”

Wu Zhiyuan sighed in his heart, and hurriedly asked, "When did you put it in?" Was it in the firewood room last night? ”

The innkeeper didn't understand Wu Zhiyuan's purpose in asking like this, and replied: "It's been in the firewood room, when those uncles came to stay last night, they put the three boxes in the firewood room, and we didn't dare to move the guests' things, so we have been in the firewood room." ”

Hearing this, Wu Zhiyuan secretly screamed in his heart that something was wrong!
