Chapter 202: The Vanity of Purpose (7)
Hearing this, Su Luo's footsteps paused.
He was stepping on the stone steps below, next to a waterfall within reach, and the cave above him was just over a foot away. His eyes swept around, and he said slowly:
"If the leaf hook grass blows from the outside and falls here to take root and sprout, this is not very likely. The cave is too small, and there is a waterfall, so it is easy to sink to the bottom as soon as you enter. The environment here is even more unsuitable for the leaves and grasses, and the things that do not grow all over the mountains must have high requirements for the environment. ”
Sang Ling looked at the place where the leaves and grass grew, obviously growing at the water's edge, but the grass roots grew on the dry soil, and she had a little guess:
It means that this thing is not blowing in from outside, but the seed is already here. At the same time, it is also necessary to ensure that it has not been cleaned up by the demon clan after it grows. ”
At the same time, she thought of the symptoms of Su Luo's poisoning, and the doctor said that some demon clans had also been poisoned, which all showed one thing.
"Either it was brought in by accident after the demon clan disappeared. Or, it's just that this grass is related to the disappearance of the demon clan. ”
Su Luo couldn't believe this almost whimsical conjecture:
"If the grass is deliberately planted here, don't say if the demon clan will find out. In the end, even if the demon clan died of poisoning from this grass, there would be traces of their bones and blood. But it's clean here, there's nothing. ”
"Then there are two possibilities, one is that after the demon clan disappeared, it was brought by chance. One is that the demon clan did not die because of the poisoning of Ye Gou grass, but was taken out of the cliff cave. Sang Ling turned around and looked at the houses in the cliff cave with closed doors and windows, as well as the clothes that were not dried but were put in, and spit out word by word:
"They may have been coaxed out of the cave, and they were acquaintances."
Su Luo was stunned, a little incredulous at this conjecture.
"Acquaintances? There are the most mortals in Pot City, the demon clan gathers in the cliff cave, and the mortals are afraid of driving away the demon clan, how can they become friends and acquaintances? It is very likely that he was directly threatened by some powerful monk and brought the demon clan out of the cliff cave. ”
Sang Ling frowned, and the clue came to a dead end again. She suddenly felt her hairline recede faintly, and quickly stopped the burning of the CPU, and said casually:
"Let's give you detoxification first, and then we will stay in Pot City for a few more days. Check things out first, and then accompany you to watch the sunset in Pots City. ”
As he spoke, he stepped up the stone steps in a few steps, and left the cave with a short body.
Su Luo, who was pulled behind him again, suddenly opened his eyebrows at this time, and the corners of his mouth were so upturned that he couldn't suppress them:
"Stupid hamster, even if you have a conscience, you always remember this."
As he spoke, someone who was once again hairy flicked his tail and hurried to follow, and even his back was full of joy.
Soon, after the two of them went down the mountain, they went directly into the city, and arrived at the gate of the medicine hall when the food in the city was the strongest.
The medicine hall was still the same as before, but the old doctor was entertaining the patients. When he was busy sending the patient away, he had time to come over and greet him:
"This is the last application, but it is applied externally. So this time it's slower than last time, about an hour. Do you want to come back after lunch? ”
Su Luo shook his head:
"I'm not too hungry, just take the medicine."
He was a little anxious about the detoxification.
Sang Ling: "Then I'll go buy some food, you go to the medicine hall first." ”
"Go ahead."
Su Luo, who had already been coaxed, said casually, and followed the doctor to the backyard.
Sang Ling asked the medicine hall guys, and then raised her feet and went to the largest restaurant in Potcan City, Paradigm Restaurant, which was also the Fan family who had also been stolen before.
The area of the pot city is not large, and the location is remote, but there are many wealthy families in the city. When it came to the meal, the restaurant was lively, and the people who came and went were mortals in rich clothes.
Sang Ling followed the flow of people and went up to the second floor. Xiao Er's movements are quick, and soon there are a lot of local specialties, which are full of color, flavor, and taste, and it makes people appetizing when they look at it.
After she picked out some packs first, she picked up the chopsticks to eat, but the chopsticks in her hand were stretched faster and faster.
After a few days of traveling, there are barbecue patties all the way, and the conditions are slightly good to cook bowls of noodles, which can be described as an extensive diet. Now that she finally had a chance to have a good meal, she was almost buried in her meal, not noticing her surroundings for a while.
Halfway through the meal, someone around suddenly exclaimed, it was a "bang", and the table was slapped up.
"I don't believe you have the pots and jars of thin porcelain from three years ago!"
Three years ago?
Pots and jars, thin porcelain!
Sang Ling's eyes lit up suddenly, and she immediately put down her chopsticks and looked over.
At this time, at a table of eight immortals not far away, there was a fat man standing with a big belly and a short body like a winter melon, but he was wearing gold and silver silk and satin, and he was a rich winter melon.
His face was full of excitement, his eyes almost red, and he stared at the man opposite.
It was also a middle-aged man who was not badly dressed, but his appearance was more ordinary, with calluses on his hands, wearing long boots, and he looked like a person who walked a lot, and his family background was not as good as that of rich winter melons.
However, he looked calm, stared at everyone, looked at them openly or secretly, nodded and said:
"I came out of the first kiln of the pot workshop, and the value is not as expensive as the later ones, but it is the same process. If you want to buy it, I'll show it to you, and I'll discern it. No, I'll go. ”
The rich winter melon's eyes moved, and he glanced at the wooden box next to the man's bench, and hesitated.
The surrounding diners couldn't sit still, so they hurriedly said:
"Boss Fan, you're still about to do it. This Wang Dart Master did have a good relationship with Zhang Guiqing, who made clay pots, three years ago, and it is very possible to say that this is a clay pot. ”
"Yes, yes, who doesn't know now that high-grade thin porcelain worth a thousand gold, Lao Zhang can't make it anymore, this thing is definitely one less than one."
"If you don't want it, sell it to me. Who doesn't know that after your family uses the mountain god to save the child, it will not be as good as before, and this money must be difficult. ”
As he spoke, someone stepped forward a few steps, stood in front of Wang Dartshi, and said sincerely:
"Master Wang, if Boss Fan doesn't want it, sell it to me."
Wang Dart Master glanced at Boss Fan with some embarrassment, he didn't want the other party to really have no meaning, he looked at each other, quickly got out of the way, and said loudly:
"Everyone knows that my family lost a child a few years ago, and it was the old lady's sweetheart, and she was so anxious that she almost went. I could only go to most of the family to ask the mountain god for help and exchange it for my family treasure. Since then, the bottom of the family has not been as good as before. ”
Wang Dart Shi frowned, indeed, he has been away from Pot City for a few years, and he really doesn't know these things.
The man hurriedly said:
"Since Boss Fan doesn't want it, then give it to me. But I have to look at things before I can give money. ”
Changed the seller, Wang Dart Master was not ambiguous, directly put the wooden box on the table, "clicked" to pull the lock, pinched the Pisces copper buckle with both hands and opened it, and saw a touch of almost azure clouds appear in front of him, and the brush lit up.
Everyone exclaimed in amazement, but they didn't want to suddenly come over and touch the bottle with one hand, and then sighed lightly.
Wang Dart Master was furious, and he was about to get angry when he raised his eyebrows, but he didn't want to face an extremely delicate and good-looking face.
The other party smiled at him, took his hand back, and said curiously:
"Who gave this thing to you?"
Wang Dart Master subconsciously didn't want to say, he didn't want to spit out the answer in those eyes that were as cold as frost and snow.
"It was given to me by Zhang Guiqing himself, and he said that this thing is a treasure. He almost lost his life, and it took one in a kiln to make this one. ”
Sang Ling glanced at the bottle that was almost jade, and the frost and snow in her eyes were heavier.
"Why did he give it to you?"
"In order to pay off his debts, he likes to gamble, and his family owes a lot of debts, so he can only exchange this for money."
Sang Ling clenched her fists and asked again:
"Where is he now?"
Wang Dart Shi frowned, and there was no answer.
Boss Fan next to him had already wiped his sweat and carefully replenished it.
Since he made that windfall three years ago, he was even more drunk and dreamed of death, and soon the family property was squandered by him. Later, his wife and children all ran away, and he was the only one left. No one knows where he went, and someone once saw him in the mountains, so he must have done something Orion. ”
Sang Ling sneered, half disbelieving:
"A gambler, will you want to work more and get more? No, he will never change. He won and didn't want to go. I don't want to go even more if I lose, and I always feel that the next hand can turn the tables. Even if it's a mess of his own life, it's such a nature. ”
Boss Fan looked puzzled, but he was still cautious on his face, and bowed down and responded:
"The fairy has a point."
Everyone was shocked, Sang Ling also looked over, and Boss Fan hurriedly explained:
"The people of Gejia Village said that Xianjun and Xianzi came over last night to help chase the children. The little one once invited an immortal, so he could naturally know one or two. ”
The crowd was even more amazed.
Sang Ling nodded, admitted, then looked at the bottle in front of him, and said lightly:
"We have found out the cause and effect of this matter last night, and I believe that we will soon be able to catch the person behind the ghost, giving everyone peace of mind."
"People? It was done by people! ”
Boss Fan was so surprised that the handkerchief in his hand fell off.
Sang Ling looked at him, then smiled and nodded, a mild and only cold chill.
"It's a human, not a demon clan, not a ghost, I believe it will soon be daylight."
This sentence was like an earth-shattering shock, and it quickly exploded in the pot city. For a while, everyone was discussing who played everyone between applause. At the same time, everyone is looking forward to the fact that the murderer behind him is about to be caught by the fairy, and he will definitely throw stones and rotten eggs at that time.
At this time, Sang Ling, who had been busy for a while, walked out of the restaurant with Boss Fan in her hand and insisted on taking the food for free.
The wooden box lay quietly in the storage bag, and Snake Bead looked at the bottle in the box and turned to another place in a huff.
It couldn't figure out that this nun would buy this ugly bottle today without hesitating to empty half a box of gold and silver. Although the money had already gone into the nun's pocket, why did it hurt so much when it was spent?
"The Yangtze River is passing away, and all the money spent is my money......"
