The girl standing in front of Xie Zhenliang looked to be in her early twenties, with bright eyes and bright teeth, beautiful and dignified, especially between Gu Pan, there was a sense of pity.

She was still holding the injured little white dog in her arms, and her whole body was full of love, and the whole picture looked like a fairy in the sky.

Xie Zhenliang looked at this beautiful woman, and was stunned, and his chest thumped violently, which may be an amazing feeling.

The woman looked at Xie Zhenliang, who was staring at her in a daze, and while stroking the little white dog's little head in her arms, she asked curiously, "Who are you?"

Xie Zhenliang woke up like a dream at this time, came back to his senses, and couldn't help but feel ashamed of his gaffe just now, and hurriedly saluted the woman deeply: "The person in the lower capital, surnamed Jie, first arrived in Xi'an, lost the road for a while, and disturbed the girl, don't blame." ”

The woman seemed to feel very interesting about his politeness, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Gongzi Xie, I see that Gongzi also seems to want to help Xiaobai just now, and he must also be a good person with love." ”

She approached Xie Zhenliang with the little white dog in her arms and asked, "Do you want to touch it?"

Xie Zhenliang looked at the docile little white dog in the woman's arms, waiting for a pair of flickering round glasses to look at him curiously, remembering the scene when it roared at his teeth just now, he was obviously wary of himself, hesitated in his heart, and asked, "I, is it okay?"

The woman said, "It's okay, I'm here." ”

Xie Zhenliang hesitated, but still stretched out his hand.

The little white dog really no longer resisted, but meekly let Xie Zhenliang caress its little head, and let out a coquettish whine in his mouth.

It could be so magical, Xie Zhenliang couldn't help laughing.

The woman also seemed to be very happy, and said softly: "Actually, Xiaobai is very well-behaved and obedient, but he has been wandering outside for a long time and has no one to take care of him, so he is often bullied by some bad people and other dogs, so he will be wary of strangers." ”

Xie Zhenliang continued to pet the little white dog and asked, "I think this little guy is very affectionate to the girl, and he must be very familiar with it." ”

The woman said, "Actually, I have only been here for a month or two, because I see that it is pitiful, and often comes to the door to beg for food, so I often feed it something to eat, and after coming and going, I become acquainted." ”

She sighed and said, "Now that it is injured, I am afraid that I will have to take it in for a few days, and then I will take care of it after the injury is healed." ”

Xie Zhenliang looked at her face, only to feel that there was a loving brilliance on it, and it looked more and more beautiful.

The woman raised her head to look at Xie Zhenliang, blinked a few times, and asked, "Now that the plague is rampant in this city, and every household is closed, how could Gongzi Xie lose his way and come here?"

Xie Zhenliang smiled a little embarrassedly and said, "I, I'm just bored and panicked, I came out and walked casually to breathe, but I didn't want to come here unintentionally." ”

He didn't tell the truth.

But what could he say?

Do you want him to tell the truth to the girl he met for the first time, and tell her that I was actually following the headcatcher in your city, and I got lost and came here?

Fortunately, this girl didn't care too much, she smiled and stopped asking, but said with concern: "Now that the epidemic is rampant in the city, Gongzi Xie should be careful, pay attention to his body, and don't dare to walk around like this again." ”

"Hello!" Xie Zhen agreed loudly.

I don't know why, this girl told him so much, and there was a trace of joy in his heart inexplicably, a sweet feeling.

This has never happened before.

The girl looked at him again, lowered her head, and whispered, "I should go back, or they should be in a hurry." ”

"Yes, yes, go back early. Xie Zhenliang replied casually, in fact, he hoped that this girl could stay a little longer and go back later.

It didn't occur to him at all to ask, who were the "they", was it her family?

He just reflexively dodged away and got out of the way, but there was a hundred reluctances hidden in his heart.

The woman was holding the little white dog in her arms, and slowly moved in front of him, a fragrant wind wafted by, and Xie Zhenliang heard her say in a voice that was almost indistinguishable: "If you feel it again."

If you're bored, you can come here to find me, come and see Xiaobai, and look at me. ”

Xie Zhenliang's chest began to thump again, come and see her?

Listening to the meaning of this, it is clear that this girl also wants to see herself again?

His heart was ecstatic, and he suddenly remembered, raised his head and asked loudly, "I forgot to ask the girl's name, how should I call it?"

The girl's figure had disappeared into the door at this time, and the two cold doors were closed again, and only her faint voice came: "You call me Xiaofeng!"

Xiaofeng?

That's a nice name.

Looking at the closed door, Xie Zhenliang stood stupidly in place and thought stupidly.

He raised his head and looked at the vermilion lantern raised in the wind outside the shop, and the three big characters on it, "Red Sleeve Move", actually looked so good.

He stood here in a daze, completely unaware that on the other side of the street, Ye Feng and his party were walking into an inn.

This inn is very magnificently decorated, at a glance you know that it is one of the best inns in Xi'an City, you can imagine how crowded it is usually, and the lively scene of guests like clouds.

However, in this extraordinary period, the store is deserted, and there is not even a single customer, only one person from the shopkeeper stands respectfully by the door, waiting for the arrival of Ye Feng and his party.

Walking in the front was Ji Wushuang, and the shopkeeper bowed down and greeted: "Hello son!"

Since this place was originally the property of the Providence Building, Ji Wushuang was naturally the real boss here, and this shopkeeper was also his subordinate.

Ji Wushuang waved his hand, signaling that he didn't have to be polite, and asked directly to the point: "How many people from the old Sun family in Guanzhong are staying in your store?"

The shopkeeper replied respectfully, "It should be true." About ten days ago, there were five people surnamed Sun, an old man with four offspring, dressed very plainly, not like doing business or visiting relatives and friends, since the inhabited in, in addition to eating every day, almost without leaving the house, as if waiting for someone, the subordinates are estimated to be the people of the old Sun family in Guanzhong who the son is looking for. ”

Ye Feng and Tang Da couldn't help but glance at each other when they heard this, it seemed that the person they were waiting for was themselves.

Ji Wushuang nodded, agreeing with his judgment, and then asked, "Are these five people still in the store now?"

The shopkeeper shook his head and sighed, "They're no longer there." ”

Ye Feng couldn't help but ask, "Where did they go, when did they leave?"

The shopkeeper raised his eyes and looked at Ye Feng, and replied, "A few days after they moved in, there was an outbreak of epidemic in the city, and these five people somehow also contracted the plague, and they all died in the room the next day. ”

"What, dead?" everyone was taken aback.

The shopkeeper nodded and said, "That's right, the next morning after they fell ill, they found all dead in their beds, and even their bodies were hardened. It was the villain who went to inform the government to collect the corpses, and the verification was correct, and they all died of anger. ”

This sudden news made Ye Feng feel a little stunned, he hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Where are their bodies now?"

The shopkeeper said: "These five people have no relatives and no reason, no one came to claim the corpses, and their corpses were naturally stored in the Yizhuang in the mass grave on the outskirts of the city, waiting for relatives to come to find people, so as to claim the corpses." ”

Outside the city?

Ye Feng suddenly felt a little sad in his heart, in this pass, the old Sun family rescued himself and Tang Da who were buried alive from the secret cave in Huashan, and they were their benefactors, but now because they were waiting for themselves here, they were infected with the plague and died, and they were really ashamed of the people of the old Sun family.

In any case, you should also go and see the corpses of these five people, burn a stick of incense, burn some paper money, and show your heart a little.

The shopkeeper knew that Ye Feng and the others were going to go to Yizhuang to have a look, so he said: "The old Li Tou who guards Yizhuang is a lonely old man who has no relatives and no reason, and the government looks at him pitifully and gives him such an errand to barely survive." He's a good talker, just go and he'll lead you to the corpse. ”

"But......" The shopkeeper suddenly hesitated, and then stopped.

Ye Feng asked, "But what?"

The shopkeeper replied, "That old Li Tou has no hobbies, just a good drink, and often runs into the city to drink." Before the government closed the city, the villain also met him to enter

Chenglai, chatting at the time, he inadvertently mentioned that after the corpses of the five people surnamed Sun were sent to Yizhuang, the next day there was suddenly one missing inexplicably, which made him easy to find for a while. ”

Ye Feng felt a little strange: "Did you find it?"

The shopkeeper said: "Naturally, no, but he was already drunk when the villain met Lao Li Tou, and I don't know if what he said is true, or just his drunk nonsense." ”

"And," the shopkeeper sighed, "after the government closed the city, I never saw him again, and the corpses of all the strangers who died of the plague were sent to Yizhuang, and I don't know if Lao Li Tou can survive, will he also be infected with the epidemic and lose his life?"

The fact that one of the five corpses was suddenly lost sounded strange.

Ye Feng and Tang Da couldn't help but glance at each other again, it seemed that this trip to Yizhuang was a must-go.

After listening to the shopkeeper's words, everyone felt the same feeling in their hearts, feeling that this matter was strange, and they all fell into deep thought for a while, and no one spoke.

The shopkeeper saw that they didn't speak, and bowed to Ji Wushuang and asked, "Excuse me, Childe, do you need to prepare a guest room for you?"

Ji Wushuang frowned and asked, "There are people infected with the plague who died in the shop, is it still safe here?"

The shopkeeper immediately swore an oath: "Since the death of those five people surnamed Sun, the government has driven out the other guests and sealed all the rooms in the south building where they lived. ”

"Now the remaining guest rooms in the North Building, all the subordinates have been carefully cleaned and disinfected with lime water to ensure that there are no problems. What's more, in the city of Xi'an, is there any inn inn that has not killed people infected with the plague?"

Ji Wushuang thought for a while and asked, "How are these corpses that die of illness and death every day disposed of now?"

The shopkeeper replied: "Since the lockdown of the city, all the corpses that have died of illness will be burned every day by Fan Jin, the head catcher, and those catchers, for fear of further infection of the epidemic. ”

Ye Feng and the others remembered the previous one who suddenly fell ill and fell to the ground, unconscious, and it seemed that this method did not seem to have much effect.

Ji Wushuang nodded helplessly, and said to the shopkeeper: "Then you can go and arrange a room for everyone, and you must pay attention to health and safety." ”

The treasurer took the command.

Ye Feng turned around at this time and began to assign tasks.

He first said to Helian Tie, a who had been following him and was silent: "You go to the door of the house where the patient was admitted just now and stand guard, if there is any news from Miss Cheng, you will immediately come and report it." ”

The didn't say much, nodded and turned around and went immediately.

Ye Feng turned his head to Chang Wuyi, the head catcher of the Criminal Department, and said: "Please ask Lord Chang to negotiate with the prefect outside the city gate, if you want to find the murderer who cast the Gu poison, there are too few clues, at present, these manpower alone is not enough, try to ask the prefect to send some sergeants into the city to assist us?"

Chang Wuyi nodded coldly and said, "Don't worry, he has to agree reluctantly." ”

Ye Feng turned to face Ji Wushuang again.

Ji Wushuang smiled and said, "What do you want Ye Gongzi to do?"

Ye Feng smiled awkwardly and said: "I don't dare, I just ask Ji Gongzi to mobilize all the forces of the Heavenly Providence Tower in Xi'an City to investigate all the information of all the outsiders who have been in and out of Xi'an City in the past month, especially all the outsiders who are still stranded in the city now." ”

After he finished speaking, he seemed to realize that the difficulty of this matter was really too great, and asked with some hesitation: "Can this be done?"

Ji Wushuang put away the smile on his face, and said with a straight face: "I will definitely do my best!"

Ye Feng nodded, turned to look at Tang Da and said, "Mr. Tang, please come with me, let's go to the mysterious Yizhuang to have a look, and see what the disappeared corpse is all about?"

Tang Da nodded resolutely.

Zhang Fatzi, who had been waiting on the side, couldn't hold back at this time, and couldn't help asking, "What about me? What am I going to do?"

Ye Feng smiled slightly and said, "Here is the best for your light skills, and you are responsible for going to the city to find someone for me." ”

Zhang Fatzi was stunned: "Who are you looking for?"

Ye Feng sighed: "Of course it's our second brother who suddenly disappeared, Xie Zhenliang!"
