Chapter 338: Tell Me the Truth
Shadow Seventy made Wei Xiaoge have a series of cranky thoughts, such as how many people and horses there were under the hands of King Qijun, and after a little distraction, she hurriedly discussed with Lu Qiao. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
“...... It takes about three months to go out, and you still need to take care of everything at home. For the time being, don't teach children how to rob or set traps to harm people, just teach them to practice calligraphy. ”
Since hiring a "bodyguard", she has finally realized that there are many things that can be bought with silver, but some things can never be bought.
It seems that I owe 10,000 people another solid massacre.......
"Our mission is to protect you, Miss Wei. Lu Qiaoyuan's face showed embarrassment.
"Protecting the children is protecting me, and if they make any mistakes, I won't survive. Wei Xiaoge said categorically.
This is the truth, the first point of the system's task is to ensure that the long-term wealth and long-term wealth grow up. Changgui ...... In Baoliang Country, it is safer to be with Ling Yunzi than to follow him.
"I'll stay, Xiongba will go out with Miss Wei, he fights better than me. ”
"No, I'm not a cabbage, I won't be pinched to death casually, I can definitely protect myself!" Wei Xiaoge shook his head. If Xiongba follows all the way, what other cases will he investigate? Just his behemoth, if he doesn't shave his eyebrows, he is a gorilla, and if he shaves off, he is a bald gorilla, which is really in the spotlight.
Lu Qiao looked up and down at Wei Xiaoge, who was wearing a green shirt and skirt, looking weak and small, and felt that she was only about the size of one of her own legs, not a cabbage at all, but a freshly sprouted cabbage, which would rot if she pinched it casually.
This is ...... Or report it to the king and let him know.
"Okay, girl, what do you command, how do I!" Lu Qiao smiled.
The farewell ceremony with several children turned into a temper tantrum with Changfu, Dou'er secretly rejoiced, Siya was reluctant, and Chang Zhuang rarely shouted "sister".
Bai Ze, who lived in the capital and couldn't go anywhere, said righteously: "As a mount, I will go on a mission with me this time!"
You said it yourself, don't complain about it then!Wei Xiaoge smiled, "Well, Bai Ze is up to you this time!"
"Don't rely on me too much......" Seeing Wei Xiaoge's smile as if he had bad intentions, Bai Ze was suddenly startled, and hurriedly took two steps back.
With several orbs around his neck, a pillow on his legs, and a dagger in his boots, the heavily armed Wei Xiaoge set off with a black donkey.
Because it is a very urgent case, you can act "cheaply" along the way, and you can change the best horse at the post station along the way.
But the best horses didn't run as fast as Bai Ze.
The first demon collector in history to ride a donkey, all the way, except for Bai Ze and her sleeping for two hours a day, they are basically on the road.
After about ten days of travel, they passed through a post house owned by a government for petty officials to rest. A person and a donkey devoured food in the room, Wei Xiaoge held a big bowl, and the dishes were piled up. Bai Ze is ten sugar pies, served on three large plates.
"I can't run like this anymore, my hooves are worn out!" Bai Ze finally relented after swallowing five cakes, and complained very dissatisfied.
"It's almost there, don't you like to run around, this time it's as you wish!" Wei Xiaoge swallowed a large piece of braised pork and said casually.
"I like to run when I want to, sleep when I want to sleep, and eat when I want to eat. It's not running when you want to sleep, it's running when you want to eat. Like a tongue twister, Bai Ze continued to complain.
"I didn't let you pull the mill when you wanted to sleep, what else do you want? The donkeys in the village eat grass and grind, and you eat fine white noodles, be content! I am worse than you, you can rest when you arrive in Ping'an Prefecture, and I still have to work!"
There is a comparison to distinguish, Bai Ze thought about it and suddenly felt that he seemed to be quite happy, and sighed, "Fortunately, I'm not a human being, nor a donkey!"
Bai Ze has always been very optimistic, and Wei Xiaoge sighed to himself.
She didn't even wash her face when she was full, and she fell asleep on the bed.
Bai Ze lay beside the pedal next to the bed, snoring like thunder.
A gust of wind blew from nowhere, blowing the window-pasted paper, which had a hole in it, even bigger, and slapping against the bed lattice with a slight crackling sound. The sudden change in voice made Wei Xiaoge, who was used to sleeping and very vigilant, wake up suddenly.
She subconsciously grasped the hilt of the knife in her hand, then turned her head away.
But I saw that only the broken window paper was blown by the wind, and the white moonlight penetrated through the window, and the wind of the early autumn night was a little cool, and it was no longer hot and dry under the scorching sun during the day.
Walking to the window, there was nothing unusual outside, Wei Xiaoge yawned and fell on the bed again.
I don't know how long it took, but not far from the window, a thin figure with the light on his back suddenly appeared, like a bamboo plant.
The moonlight sprinkled overhead, but I saw a trace of unspeakable pain and hesitation in the man's eyes.
stared at it for a long time, and finally flew away like a faint breeze.
As if it had never been there.
As if this farewell was a farewell......
About the moment the man left, the almost imperceptible whirlwind moved the window paper again, and the alert Wei Xiaoge opened his eyes, and the room was still as usual. For some reason, she couldn't fall asleep, and sat on the head of the bed for a long time.
An hour later, she patted Bai Ze's head, "Lazy donkey, let's go!"
There is a road map in the case file, although there is no need to ask for directions, Wei Xiaoge is extremely reluctant to take the waterway, so he can only make a slight detour.
Even so, it only took twenty-four days to arrive in Ping'an Prefecture from the capital.
did not go to the yamen immediately, and a person and a donkey found an inn to live in.
After resting for a few hours, Wei Xiaoge went out and walked around a few times in a place with the most dead people in the case file.
Ping'an Prefecture is still 200 miles away from the East China Sea, and the great river that passes through the entire Great Wei Dynasty from the northern Xinjiang passes through this place and does not enter the East China Sea. Despite the ban on the sea, the state capital is very prosperous due to the pleasant climate, but there are not many people walking around the streets in broad daylight because of the unprovoked death of eleven people in this area.
She found a tavern called "Yunlai" and ordered two plates of side dishes and a pot of wine.
I didn't drink much, but most of the time I was drinking tea, and by the way, I listened to the chatter and gossip in the tavern.
The business of the tavern is very bad, and the middle-aged shopkeeper with a goatee is too lazy to dial the abacus, and his expression is aggrieved, and he sits crookedly in a daze. Two runners, one swatting flies, one holding a rag, and one wiping the table with one pair.
This is the case with all the teahouses and taverns in the vicinity, this one is not bad, including Wei Xiaoge, there are four tables.
There was a table with five ruffian-looking figures sitting at a table, and they were drinking a little happily.
Two of them glanced at Wei Xiaoge, and there was a hint of obscenity in their eyes, but they didn't know as if they remembered something, and quickly turned their heads to the side.
Several people approached and muttered a few quietly, extremely softly.
However, he asked Wei Xiaoge to listen to it.
"Little Niangpi looks at the evil sect, do you dare to go out alone, aren't you afraid of being bloodletted?"
"Maybe she's the one who bleeds. A mustachioed ruffian who had glanced at Wei Xiaoge before whispered.
"Let's go!" someone shuddered.
"What are you afraid of, the dead are all lonely people at night, and the blue sky and white evil things dare not go out!" A ruffian who looked like an old man rolled up his sleeves, revealing the tattoos on his arms.
The shopkeeper seemed to know these people, raised his eyelids, and said listlessly: "You better say a few words, another person died the day before yesterday, and he died in broad daylight." ”
"Hey, shopkeeper Li, who did it anyway, or is there a monster?"
Shopkeeper Li let out a long sigh, "Who knows, no matter how dead I am, I don't have to open this tavern, just close the door." For these two months' protection fee, I see that you still directly pull me to sell it, anyway, I can't afford it. ”
"Speaking of which, I just refuse to pay the money, big brother, what should I do?" said a junior brother dissatisfied.
The man who looked like the boss waved his hand and said generously: "Forget it, we'll leave after drinking today, and the protection money will be owed first." ”
Shopkeeper Li lowered his head, as if he had a walnut in his mouth, and muttered a few words vaguely, as if there were three words "kill a thousand knives", but no one could hear whether he was scolding these ruffians who drank overlord wine or scolding murderers.
After sitting for a while, Wei Xiaoge drank all the pots of tea and half a pot of wine, but he ate all the dishes.
The entire tavern was empty, and even the running hall was gone, only Shopkeeper Li looked at her countless times, looking frightened, as if to say: Why don't you leave, what if you die here?
Stretching his waist, Wei Xiaoge slowly stood up, and then walked to the counter in front of him, "Shopkeeper, you're not afraid!"
Shopkeeper Li shuddered, "Girl, please be cautious." ”
Wei Xiaoge glanced at him and said, "I heard that three people walked out of your tavern and were killed not long after, do you think I will go out of this door and run into evil spirits?"
Shopkeeper Li's face suddenly turned pale, "The girl said with a smile." ”
Wei Xiaoge smiled, "I'm not joking, I heard that two of them, Deng Chenglu and Chang Yinniang, are very familiar with the shopkeeper, yes or no?"
Shopkeeper Li blushed, but he didn't dare to speak up, and hurriedly defended: "You are also an official errand? When Deng Chenglu and Chang Yinniang died, someone proved that I was in the tavern, and the people from the yamen had asked me several times. Besides, what can I do to kill them?"
"Tell me the truth!"
After saying this, Wei Xiaoge raised his hand and sprinkled a little medicine powder that was almost invisible, and then gently blew it on the face of Shopkeeper Li, and his eyes became deep and stared at each other, as if there was a deep whirlpool, inhaling the divine soul.
Shopkeeper Li's expression suddenly became in a trance, and after a while, he gritted his teeth and vacated all the things that he had hidden in his heart for unknown years.
It's just that Niu Dao tried her copycat version of the soul pupil technique, Wei Xiaoge didn't expect that Shopkeeper Li would start talking about it from a young age.
That's a lot of information......
Li Houquan, both parents, the third son in the family, has an elder brother and an eldest sister at the top, and a younger sister and younger brother below.
His father has been a layman for many years, and he has not participated in Li Houquan's growth almost the whole time. Mother is a moody woman, and it is never possible to guess whether she intends to scold or praise.
In order to win his mother's favor, Li Houquan did a lot of pleasing things, but the results were always unpredictable.
At the age of thirteen, he began to work as a boy in a restaurant and began to curry favor with the moody shopkeeper.
At the age of nineteen, she married a daughter-in-law, a girl from a tofu shop in the neighborhood. The girl was his own eye, and begged his family to marry her, and the girl's temperament was no less moody.
Buy half a roast duck and go home and hold it to your daughter-in-law, maybe you will be scolded for wasting money, or you may laugh and praise him.
It's like gambling on the big and small, always full of surprise or surprise.
