Chapter Fifty-Seven: Ignoring Ertan
The officers and soldiers surrounded the entire courtyard, blocking passers-by from approaching, the courtyard door was wide open, Chu Wuji was about to go up to take a look, but suddenly saw that the door of the house next door was knocked open, and several sergeants walked out with a gloomy face, and cursed loudly: "His grandmother's, this is really killing a pig and stabbing his ass, and he made a mistake!
When these people left the courtyard gate, they went straight to the family where the accident occurred, and the sergeant who stopped at the door laughed, and it was obvious that they were together.
After a short time, several officers and soldiers came out carrying several corpses.
Chu Wuji paid attention to these officers and soldiers, judging from the official uniforms, they were all from Jingzhao Mansion, and he couldn't tell if there were any people from the few aspects analyzed that day.
Chu Wuji frowned slightly, released his spiritual sense slightly, looked around, and soon found several monks in the crowd, a total of three people, these three people just watched coldly as the official army carried out the corpse, but there was no movement, and after a while, the three of them quietly made a gesture and left one after another.
Glancing around, he cautiously followed, but Chu Wuji had doubts in his heart: "I don't know what kind of people these people were last night, the strange thing is that it stands to reason that the person who escaped last night will definitely tell Shangfeng and transport the body away overnight, but why wait for the people from Jingzhao Mansion to deal with it?"
The three men went their separate ways at first, but after a short while, at a fork in the road, the three of them came together again, whispered something, and then left in three directions.
"These three people, it is very likely that they are in the same gang as the people I killed last night, to follow or not to follow?" Chu Wuji frowned, following these people, he might be able to find out where they would return in the end, but looking at the cautious appearance of these three people, I am afraid that there will be many detours.
"Do you want to wait at the gate of the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion to see who goes to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion? Last night, I deliberately blamed the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion, and the person who escaped will definitely return to the upper peak, and the other party may go to the Zuo Prime Minister's Mansion to ask for an explanation, but the possibility is very small...... Follow!"
With his mind set up, Chu Wuji gave up two of them and secretly followed the other.
This person seemed extremely cautious, going around all the way, advancing and retreating, almost all over the West City, Chu Wuji almost lost it several times, and was almost noticed by the other party, but fortunately, he had a thousand faces, and he changed his appearance several times in a row, and then he followed.
Finally, the man stopped going around in circles, looked around, and walked briskly to the northeast.
Chu Wuji's heart was relieved, and he hung far away until the man entered a compound.
He mingled with the pedestrians, walked over nonchalantly, and glanced at it: Koufu.
"Zhongshu Province Zhongshu Ling Kou Mingxiang, it seems that those people last night were the people from this side of Zhongshu Province!"
Chu Wuji was determined in his heart, in case the person deliberately guided, he also deliberately waited outside for a long time, and in the afternoon, seeing that the other two people who left also returned to the Kou Mansion, Chu Wuji finally confirmed.
"Kou Mingxiang and Zuo Xiang Zhao Zhizhi are both the same raccoon dogs, this is even better!
Chu Wuji sneered and walked towards the inn satisfied.
Crossing the street, I wanted to bypass a small road and take a shortcut to the past, but suddenly heard the shouting in front of me, Chu Wuji was curious, and leaned over to take a look, it turned out that this is on the edge of the Broken Snow River, and it is also one of the most noisy, dirty, and chaotic places in the entire capital, called Wuli Er Beach, which means that it is here, it is not reasonable at all.
There are a variety of industries here, including juggling, storytelling, singing, grocery stalls, stalls for fortune telling, cricket and bird racing...... All kinds of livelihoods, only you can't think of it, and you can't see it.
Chu Wuji looked at it, and in his memory, this was a place where his predecessor often came to play, and he made bold moves, causing most of the people here to regard his predecessor as the God of Wealth.
It's a pity that this is not the same as before, the same skin, different souls...... Well, the face is different at the moment.
"Come on, come on, take a look, the strong pill that the monk personally refined, you see, eat my strong pill, and break the big stone in your chest......"
The shouts came and went, Chu Wuji used to visit the antique market in his previous life, although it was lively, but it was not as lively as here, and he suddenly felt interesting, and couldn't help but go in.
After chasing the man for a long time, Chu Wuji walked around for a while, and felt a little hungry, and there happened to be a stall selling wontons next to him, Chu Wuji sat down on a stool on one side, waiting for the wontons, and watched the stall owner next to him introduce his things.
"You can see, my elixir, but it is all refined by the monks themselves, compared to the strong pill of the one on the other end, this is a lot higher, I can't hide it, the lord said, this elixir, for their monks, it has little effect, but for us ordinary people, it is a peerless elixir that prolongs life and relieves youth!"
The stall owner was full of small porcelain vases in front of him, and he was holding a bottle at the moment, and his saliva was fluttering.
Chu Wuji frowned and sat to the side.
"This gentleman, you elixir... Is it really a monk's powerful refining?"
At this moment, a voice full of surprise, but a little apprehensive and timid, sounded.
Chu Wuji turned his head to look and saw a thin and ragged young man looking at the porcelain vase in the stall owner's hand with an expectant expression, and his hands tightly clutched a small package on his shoulder.
"Hey, this little brother, your brother, I'll put this here, I'm a real monk's powerful elixir!"
The young man was surprised in his eyes and asked urgently, "That... Can this elixir cure the disease?"
"Nonsense, of course you can! The elixir refined by the monk, even if it is the most rubbish elixir for the monk, it is also a panacea for us ordinary people, what kind of incurable diseases, aren't they all hand-to-hand? Little brother, how many do you want?"
"I... How can I ask for a few, then tell me how much you have first?" the young man shrank and asked in a low voice.
The stall owner stretched out his hands and put his index fingers together.
"Ten coins?"
The stall owner's face sank: "What are you talking about? I said little brother, you treat my pill as a pea? This is a pill that a monk can refine, do you know what the pill is?" It's not a pill!"
"Then how much do you say!?" the young man blushed, "Ten cents?"
The stall owner was angry: "Ten taels of silver!"
The young man's face changed, and Ai Ai said, "Ten... Ten taels?"
The onlookers shook their heads and turned around one by one to leave.
The stall owner was anxious and shouted: "Ten taels is not expensive, this is already the price of jumping, this is an elixir, it can cure all diseases!"
The young man hesitated for a while, shook his head and said, "Forget it, you're too expensive, I can't afford it!"
Saying that he was about to leave, at this moment, a thin man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks in the crowd squeezed over, and when he passed by the young man, he reached out and touched the young man's package, and his eyes were suddenly happy, and he laughed: "Boss, how many do you have, I want it!"
"Ouch, you're here with a lot of eyesight! This boss, you're ...... All of them?" said the stall owner smiled.
"But it's not, boss, you don't know me so soon, I bought you a pill yesterday, and gave it to my daughter-in-law when I go back, guess what? Her illness will be cured immediately! You are a life-saving pill, ahh
The thin monkey looked anxious, for fear that the boss would sell this elixir to others.
As soon as he heard this, the young man's eyes suddenly lit up, and he was about to step forward, turning the spoon upside down for the vendor who was cooking wontons on Chu Wuji's side, and gently tapped the young man's waist.
The young man's heart was all on the elixir, and he didn't notice it at all.
The wonton stall owner shook his head, handed the boiled wonton to Chu Wuji, shook his head and sighed, "This little baby is going to be deceived." ”
Chu Wuji smiled: "How do you know?"
The stall owner grabbed his apron and wiped his hands, and said in a low voice: "What kind of elixir, it's a gnocchi mixed with astragalus foam, deceiving!"
Chu Wuji was surprised: "Then why don't you debunk it!"
The stall owner looked at Chu Wuji in amazement: "Debunked, don't say that this place is called Ignorant Beach, just this person, there is someone behind the people!"
"Anyone?"
"That's right, this person, many people know him on the beach, he has a younger brother, who works in the Zuo Xiangfu, he is a disciple, behind the family, but through the Zuo Xiangfu!"
"The ...... of the Left Prime Minister's Mansion Menzi?" Chu Wuji couldn't help laughing.
