Hearing that Lu Bu was leaving the capital again, Diao Chan's heart was quite reluctant.

Cao Jiangxian shouted that he wanted to go with Lu Bu, but in the end, he was rejected by Lu Bu.

Soon after dawn, Lu Bu set off with Xu Ba and Xue Meng.

"Hou Ji was transferred to the commander of the forbidden army, I don't know who took over his position as the superintendent?" Xu Ba asked.

Lu Bu did not answer.

What he was thinking now was that this marquis must have offended many people after being in the small city for a long time, and perhaps, the person who killed him was not from Huang Shen's remnants.

Soon after entering the town, the three of them appeared at the small tavern where they had first arrived.

The liquor store has not changed, and even the little guy inside is still the same as it was at the beginning.

"Why didn't Tang Zhuangshi come in?" Xue Meng stood at the door, and saw Lu Bu looking up at the signboard of the shop, looking thoughtful, puzzled.

"The shopkeeper of this shop is surnamed Du, and when the villain was there, he once saw this person's whole family being copied, and all the family property was confiscated by Hou." Lu Bu said, "Now that this store is in good condition, it seems to be more prosperous than before, somehow, so I thought." ”

"I guess the owner has changed." Xue Meng said, "Tang Zhuangshi doesn't have to be suspicious, he will eat wine first and then make theories." ”

Three people enter the liquor store.

The back door of the restaurant leads directly to the inn in the back, and from time to time, guests come out of the back and enter the restaurant directly.

The guy in the store vaguely remembered Lu Bu and the others, and without waiting to speak, he had already brought the three of them to the private room where they had eaten for the first time.

"The three guest masters must have finished their work last time, and now they are coming back?" The guy diligently poured tea for the three of them, and asked.

"Man, little brother, good eyesight." Xu Ba said.

"The three guests are different, and at first glance, they know that they are from the capital. This place is remote, and there are very few elegant guests like the three guests, so I still remember it. The guy said.

"Is your shopkeeper okay?" Lu Bu suddenly asked.

The guy was stunned.

"Do the three guests recognize my shopkeeper?"

"I've just heard people mention it." Lu Bu said, "The day before yesterday, I heard that the shopkeeper Du family was in trouble, but I don't know if it's true or not. ”

The guy probably thought that they were outsiders, not to mention that the matter had passed, and there was no need to hide it, so he smiled and said, "The guest master doesn't know, my shopkeeper was indeed framed by someone some time ago, and was arrested by the superintendent, and even the villain was also affected." It was only later that the superintendent was transferred, and General Feng Bo, who replaced him, was an old friend of my family, so he was acquitted. ”

"General Feng Bo is a close confidant of the Governor Lord?" Xue Meng asked.

"This villain doesn't know." The man shook his head, "However, since the Inspector left, it is true that General Feng Bo is in charge of everything here." ”

As he was talking, there were guests outside, and the guy was busy greeting him, so he left the private room.

"Tang Zhuangshi knows this General Feng Bo?" Xu Ba asked.

Lu Bu nodded.

"This person had previously worked with the villain to serve as a guard for the Chinese army by the side of the Inspector, and he was deeply trusted by the Hou. Presumably, before Hou Ji left, he temporarily handed over the military power to him. Lu Bu said.

"Since it is a Chinese army guard, it must be also skilled. However, as soon as Hou Ji left, he released all the shopkeepers of Du's family, and this change was fast enough. Xue Meng said.

It didn't take long for the guy to bring the food and drinks.

At this time, a person appeared at the gate.

His appearance immediately attracted Lu Bu's attention.

Dressed in shabby clothes, with dark skin on his open chest, and a pair of eyes full of, Lu Bu immediately recognized that this person was the tomb robber named Chai Qing who was caught by himself.

Last time, if it weren't for himself and Cao Jiangxian fighting to help each other, this guy would have been pushed into the ancient tomb alive by Du's shopkeeper along with another person.

Don't this guy know yet?

He also knew Feng Bo, or was he released together with the help of the relationship between the shopkeeper Du?

"Master Chai, the villain knows that you will come today, and he has already ordered you to prepare all the wine and food later, or is it the old rule?" The guy greeted him and said flatteringly.

"Lao Tzu is not dead, and he is blessed to think about it." Chai Qing deliberately shook off the dust on his body and said, "Just bring your family's high-quality wine and food, after the uncle uses it, you still need your shopkeeper to come and discuss some things in person." ”

"Okay, Chai Ye don't sit down, the villain will go and inform my shopkeeper." The guy said, and let Chai Qing into the private room next to Lu Bu and the others.

Lu Bu got up and looked next door through the gap in the plank.

Seeing that Chai Qing was already sitting at the table, he was taking off the dirty clothes on his body, and put them on the corner of the table casually, but he took out a black cloth bag from his pocket and put it on the table.

When it opened, it was a black copper decanter.

The reason why Lü Bu can recognize this object at a glance is because the wine bottle was a common drinking tool in the Later Han Dynasty.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, the utensils used by people have been simplified, much smaller and more delicate than the original wine bottles, and the materials are no longer as simple as copper and iron.

For Lu Bu, there is nothing more ordinary than this thing, but for the people of the Northern Song Dynasty, this is undoubtedly an out-and-out treasure.

Lu Bu could almost conclude that this patina-covered object must have come from a Han Dynasty tomb.

Chai Qing fiddled with the wine bottle with his hand, and from time to time he came to his eyes to take a closer look, and then, with a nervous expression, he glanced outside, quickly put it away, and put it in his pocket.

Lu Bu sat back in his seat.

He didn't come here to arrest these tomb robbers, otherwise Lu Bu really wanted to rush over and throw Chai Qing to death.

I don't know which of my contemporaries is unlucky, and after death, I will have to dig up the grave of these pickled villains.

"Tonight, I can rest in the back room, and tomorrow morning, Tang Zhuangshi can go back to the barracks and use the excuse to visit his old friends and learn some information." Xu Ba proposed.

"My lord speculates that this murderer is acquainted with Na Hou, if it weren't for Na Na Huang Gentry's gang, it is very likely that he came from the military camp." Xue Meng also said.

Lu Bu nodded.

After eating, the three of them, led by their fellows, went to the back and set up their respective rooms.

By this time, it was already dark.

There weren't many customers in the inn.

In the courtyard, a blood-red lantern hung high on a wooden stake in the middle, painting the entire courtyard with a heavy layer of blood.

The sound of footsteps caught Lu Bu's attention, and he got up from the bed and stood in front of the window, where he could see several open rooms opposite, one of which was occupied by Chai Qing.

Lu Bu saw the fat shopkeeper Du walking towards Chai Qing's room under the leadership of his buddy.

Lu Bu remembered this person.

When he was imprisoned by Hou Ji, this person once visited Chai Qing and another tomb robber in prison.

Seeing him in such a hurry, Lu Bu guessed that it must be for the wine bottle full of patina.

It is ironic enough to think that this ordinary object, which was once ubiquitous everywhere, has now become the object of great sought-after by people, and even requires many people to obtain it at the cost of their lives.

Lu Bu didn't want to pay any more attention.

However, what happened next surprised him.
