Chapter 366: Young Master He and the Shark Tail (5)
There are many people surnamed He in Huaxi Town, and Bai Li and they are not sure whether the He family they mentioned in the mouth of the old Wu shopkeeper is the He Jiabao they mentioned before.
As for the merman, compared to the monster who had just fought against Bai Ze, he had fish scales on his face, probably a fish monster like a merman.
Bai Li found two sets of clothes from the shop, handed the men's clothes to Bai Ze, and went to tidy up the old woman Wu with the women's clothes.
Although Gao Zhan hadn't done this, he still put down the saber in his hand, squatted on the ground, and helped Bai Ze dress the old Wu shopkeeper together.
"Mr. Bai, do you say that the He family in the mouth of the shopkeeper of Lao Wu refers to the He shopkeeper's family? When we were in He's house, what else did you find? ”
"Everything is normal in the He family, and there is no trace of the merman's stay." Bai Ze said softly while putting on clothes for the old Wu shopkeeper: "That merman should have only arrived in Huaxi Town in the past few days, and before today, he deliberately hid the merman's aura on his body. ”
"Then why didn't he hide it today?" Gao Zhan asked, stopping what he was doing.
"Stupid, because he can't hide it." Bai Li's hands are fast, and he has already helped the old woman Wu to put it on. "What kind of person is my husband, in front of him, no demons and monsters can be hidden."
"That's right, Mr. Bai is indeed different from mortals like us." Gao Zhan nodded: "Take this Wu shark as an example, I really didn't see any difference between him and me." ”
"The smell is different." Bai Li interjected.
"The smell is different, what smell?" Gao Zhan hurriedly sniffed his own sleeve, but almost vomited for him. Maybe it's because he's been in this shop for a long time, and he has a heavy smell of pickled pepper and phoenix feet.
If there was only this smell, he didn't think there was anything, but with this smell, it was the appearance of the old Wu shopkeeper just now. He frowned and quickly withdrew from the shop.
"Li'er, why don't you open which pot to mention. Let me tell you, I didn't like this pickled pepper phoenix claw or something, and I'm afraid I won't even want to see it in the future. ”
"What's the matter with this pickled pepper phoenix claw?" Although Bai Li said this, what came to his mind was also the appearance of the old Wu shopkeeper before he died.
A sour taste came straight from her stomach, and she was so frightened that she quickly stroked it down with her hand, so she couldn't bear it and didn't vomit.
"The pickled pepper is innocent, and the phoenix claw is even more innocent, and if you want to blame it, you have to blame the shark man. He didn't do anything good, but he wanted to make this pickled pepper phoenix claw. It's too lacking in morality, and from now on, I'm afraid I won't be blessed to taste this delicacy again. ”
"Don't talk about it, let's think about how to settle the old Wu shopkeeper and his wife first. You can't just let them lie here! ”
"Of course not, everyone is dead, so we have to go to the ground to be safe. In this way, with our family's carriage, you go to the county government to find a few little brothers, let them do a favor, and let's go to find a place outside the city to bury them." ”
"What does Mr. Bai mean?" Gao Zhan looked at Bai Ze.
"Whatever Madame says, she is." Bai Ze nodded: "I still have some silver here, so let's go to the coffin shop and buy them two better coffins." It is not easy for people to live a lifetime, and they can't enjoy happiness when they are alive, so let them go as decently as possible when they leave. ”
"You don't need two coffins, one is enough." Bai Li stretched out a finger: "Hey, don't look at me with that kind of look, I'm really not stingy." In our hometown, the two of them are going to be in the coffin when they die, which is called life and death. The two of them are husband and wife, how can you bear to separate them? ”
"And that said?" Gao Zhan looked at Bai Ze.
Bai Ze shook his head lightly: "This, I don't know, but since Madam said so, then it's better to buy just a coffin." ”
"Be bigger, more spacious. Look at the place where they lived, how cramped and crowded it was. ”
"Then buy the best one in the coffin shop, and this matter will be on me." Gao Zhan took the silver from Bai Ze's hand: "Are you waiting for me here, or do you go home and change your clothes first?" I don't care about Mr. Bai, but Li'er, you're a girl, and it's not good to have these bad smells on your body. ”
"I'll go back to the house to take a shower and change clothes first, and by the way, I'll see if Huan'er is okay. The affairs in this shop will be handed over to my husband, and you will be responsible for the purchase of the coffin. By the way, I almost forgot what I was trying to say. The taste I just said is not the taste of pickled pepper and phoenix feet on your body, the taste of the merman. To be precise, it's not the smell of sharks, it's the smell of the sea that can only be smelled by the sea. Because when Wu Shark came out, he was holding the small jar in his hand, and I don't know if there was anything like pickled salted fish in his shop, so I didn't think much about it. We've checked the whole shop just now, and there is no salted fish, which means that the smell of the sea is his own, or it may be the smell of the mermaid on his body. ”
"The taste of the merman!" Gao Zhan pondered: "The merman should be something in the sea, although there is a river in Huaxi Town, it is far away from the sea, how did the monsters in this sea come to Huaxi Town." Could it be that it is for that family? ”
"No matter what the merman came to Huaxi Town for, he must have a purpose, and he is a monster who regards human life as a mustard, as long as he is not caught for a day, he will be dangerous to the entire Huaxi Town. Aren't you going back to the government later, tell Lord Xin about the mermaids, it's best to put out a town-wide notice, so that everyone can beware of people with the smell of the sea. ”
"You can't make a notice, but once you make a notice, Wu Shark will definitely be able to see it. He's a merman, a monster who is good at changing, and he definitely has a way to hide the smell of himself. When the time comes, it will be even more detrimental to us to catch him. In this way, I will only tell Master Xin and people I trust, and say that there are bandits in Huaxi Town, so that everyone can pay attention to unfamiliar faces, find suspicious people, and report to the yamen in time. ”
"It's okay to save Wu Shark from being caught, but it makes the whole Huaxi Town panic." Bai Li nodded: "Wu Shark has seen you, you have to be careful in the future." If you find Wu Shark, don't have a hard time with him, you come to the Bai family to find my husband. If my husband is not there, you can go to this place to find the shopkeeper, and if you are lucky, you can meet my master and the old fox. ”
Gao Zhan took the address written by Bai Li and asked casually: "Is your master not in Baifu?" ”
"It's not been here this time!" Without raising his head, Bai Li replied, "He's been very busy lately, staying with that old fox all day, and he doesn't know what he's doing sneakily." ”
"Sneaky? There are apprentices who describe their master like this. ”
"What's the difference between being sneaky and being mysterious, besides, what you do to hide from your apprentice is not sneaky. In short, you're going to be in trouble, don't force it. I'm not underestimating you, but I just think that the one who can fight with my husband must not be an ordinary monster. ”
Mountains and seas are eaten by monsters
