Chapter 48 Investigation of Whereabouts
Luo Yang entered the only teahouse in the village, and Xiao Er waited diligently.
He was a little embarrassed and said that he was just looking for someone, and Xiao Er was not surprised.
There really doesn't need a reason for the teahouse to find someone.
He told Luo Yang that Hu Er hadn't come for two days, Luo Yang took out a silver coin and handed it to Xiao Er to ask him about Hu Er's appearance.
The county seat is not far from the village, at most more than ten miles. Luo Yang inquired about the location and hurried to go.
Originally, Luo Yang didn't hope to meet Hu Er, but he didn't expect Hu Er to be very face-saving.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Hu Erzheng looking intently at the dice on the treasure case. This guy is very recognizable, after all, there are indeed few people with pockmarked faces.
Luo Yang was not in a hurry, and when he opened the dice cup, he found that this girl had already lost all of it, and he didn't bet at all.
After seeing enough, Luo Yang walked out of the treasure game with Hu Er, and Hu Er struggled a few times, and found that it was useless and honest.
When he came to the corner, Hu Erdui smiled and said: "This uncle, the little one really doesn't have a lot of money recently, which money bank are you, please be accommodating for two days, and the little one must make up for the money." ”
I never thought that he regarded himself as a debt collector, Luo Yangxin said that the world of this NPC is too real, isn't it possible that the system simulates everyone according to the logic of reality? How ruthless is the engine of this game!
Thinking of the last Liu Zhutou incident, Luo Yang felt that it was really possible.
Luo Yang stared at Hu Er, thinking that it would be better to calculate: "The matter of money can be discussed, I have more important things to ask you now." The big yellow dog of the widow's house of the king of your village, when did you kill it, and when did you bury it in the dense forest? Recruit from the truth! ”
It didn't matter if he asked what he said, Hu Er, who had just returned the dog's leg, heard this, shook his head and said quickly: "You are not a debt collector!" I don't know about this, don't ask me, I didn't do it! I advise you to be nosy! ”
Luo Yang was very surprised by Hu Er's performance, but after listening to what he said, Luo Yang knew that this product must know something, so he said: "You don't care who I am, you just tell me what you know, and I can let you go." ”
"That's not going to work, if those people know about me, I'll die." Hu Er was unmoved.
"If you don't say you're going to die now!"
Hu Er was even more surprised than he was just now: "You, you, it's bright in broad daylight, do you want to kill people on the street?" ”
Looking at his eyes, it was clear that he was not afraid, but that he felt that there was something wrong with the person in front of him.
Luo Yang was really stopped by him, he was not frightened by Hu Er, after all, it was just a game, so what if he killed it.
What he was afraid of was that the clue would be cut off.
After thinking about it for a while, Luo Yang took out a few silver coins and repeated the trick.
Hu Er squinted his eyes and peeked at it, and then said with an embarrassed face: "Uncle, it's not that I don't say it, it's that I don't dare!" Those people are extremely vicious, and the small ones really can't be provoked. You mean well, and you mean to return it to Xiao, but what is the use of me taking this money and dying of life. Master, don't embarrass me, let me go as a fart. ”
Hey, just at this kid's knife edge, he dared to bargain Luo Yang decided that his kid was a character!
Luo Yang gritted his teeth, and smashed it harder, but he was dizzy and completely forgot to be afraid. He pulled out a gold coin.
Sure enough, Hu Er was no longer reserved when he saw the gold coin, and after snatching it away, he said with a smile on his face: "Hey, hey, I understand." Uncle, you must be a chivalrous hero, just for your pride, Hu Er, I also let go, don't worry, I must know everything, I'll tell you now, that's the case......"
The power of the gold coin made Hu Er rack his brain to recall all the details of last night.
It turned out that Hu Er did go to take revenge on the widow's house that night, and he first prepared medicine in advance and smeared it on the raw meat, intending to kill rhubarb.
Because he didn't dare to blatantly draw out the rhubarb, Hu Er had to ambush the rhubarb in the woods often. In the evening, rhubarb went to the woods.
But before he could lure Rhubarb over, suddenly a group of men in black passed by the woods, and as a result, Rhubarb was alarmed and bit it.
The men in black killed Rhubarb in fear of making a noise, and then dragged him into the woods and buried him.
Hu Er was in ambush in the woods at the time, and later listened to their conversation and learned that this was a group of tomb robbers, because he was afraid of bumping into them and chose to take the path, Hu Er knew that the gang was fierce, and they escaped by hiding to death.
At this time, Luo Yang finally understood the ultimate goal of this mission, to find the tomb robbers!
The mission has almost slipped by now, but Luo Yang, who has already paid a gold coin, is obviously impossible to give up.
After interrogating Hu Er a few more words, he really didn't have any clues before letting him go. At this point, the system's quest prompt has changed to finding out the whereabouts of the tomb robbers.
Luo Yang thought about it, tomb robbers must be picking rich tombs to steal, and this kind of thing must not be hidden for a long time, the most direct way is two ways.
The first is to see what major cases the yamen has had recently, and the second is to listen to gossip in the teahouse restaurant.
Luo Yang also thought about the route selection, and there was a fork in the road that would pass through the woods, Gaoyang County on the left and Minyang County on the right.
The economy of the two counties seems to be about the same, and Luo Yang can only try his luck to go to Gaoyang County first.
I hired a carriage and spent a gold coin on Luoyang, and the distance was not too far, and I arrived in Gaoyang County in half an hour.
On the way, Luo Yang came up with a great idea.
Since these people are tomb robbers, they naturally have to have the skills and guys of tomb robbing. He recalled that he had been exposed to this knowledge and smiled again.
This is the era of the Great Wilderness, and it is impossible to rob an antique tomb. After all, there was no concept of antiques at this time.
It is nothing more than stealing the funeral goods of some rich families.
He only had to explore the cemeteries of these large families to find out if any grave robbers had visited them.
He first went to visit the county seat and found that the shops here sell fewer things than those in the big city, but there are also some things that the big city does not have, for example, the map of Gaoyang County was found by Luo Yang in the bookstore.
After purchasing, the system prompted whether to use it, and Luo Yang found that the map system had added the map of Gaoyang County after using it.
With the map, Luo Yang saved too much lip service.
He first went to the largest teahouse in the city to consume, and then found a more lively place to sit down. Finally, an old man who seemed to be inquiring was determined.
He didn't rush to talk, but first listened to their small talk, and when he found out that they didn't talk about tomb robbing, Luo Yang couldn't sit still.
He took the initiative to ask the other party, and the result was the same, the city had not heard of any family's ancestral graves being stolen.
Luo Yang realized that he might have chosen the wrong path.
He didn't delay any longer, and hurriedly went to several ancestral tombs that were said to be relatively wealthy according to the map. There is nothing unusual about it.
Just when Luo Yang was about to give up, he suddenly found that there was indeed a family whose ancestral grave was a little different.
The grave was unusual, but a few meters away from the grave was an inconspicuous location, about a foot square, and the color of the land was different from the rest of the place.
It is dark brown in color and looks like it has been excavated recently.
Luo Yang touched the soil, dug twice, and found that the inside was the same color, and he was almost certain that it was the tomb robber's hole.
Luo Yang looked at the location and smiled unkindly.
No wonder he didn't find out in the first place, because he never imagined that someone would break ground on Tai Sui's head.
The owner of this tomb is none other than the ancestral tomb of the county lord's family!
