Chapter 922: Qianqian is the most well-behaved
Sure enough, the shopkeeper smiled and asked, "Two guests, where do you stay in the hotel?"
This sentence is exactly the same as the shopkeeper Wang Mingzhi pretended to be.
Bai Ling began to have a headache, and Yan Saburo replied with a blank look: "Find someone." ”
But he walked upstairs and downstairs, and Tu Xing'er was not here.
Yan Saburo asked the shopkeeper in the air. The latter was very impressed by the beautiful girl: "Ah, she went out early in the morning. ”
"Where?"
"How can I know?" said the shopkeeper with a smile, "and we don't care about the whereabouts of the guests. ”
For this result, Yan Saburo was not surprised.
As he deduced, Tu Xing'er was important to Wang Mingzhi. The latter knew that Yan Saburo was suspicious of Tu Xing'er, so how could he leave her at the Tongyue Inn?
Tu Xing'er must have been taken away from afar, so as not to fall into Yan Saburo's hands and become a handle.
Chitose was slightly angry: "This person wants to cooperate, but he has no sincerity!"
Yan Saburo thought clearly: "No matter how sincere he is, he will not hand over Tu Xing'er to us." ”
But in the end, he got out of the room where Tu Xing'er was staying, jumped out of the window alone and went in to take a look, everything inside was neatly arranged, and even the bedding was folded well.
He originally planned to look for some clues here, but it seems that Wang Mingzhi also thought of this.
Fighting with a master illusionist, he hasn't gained the upper hand yet.
The red smoke drifted around the room, and Chitose's voice sounded a little breathless: "No! I didn't even leave a single hair!" Wang Mingzhi also cleaned it too cleanly, where did this guy hide Tu Xing'er?
At this time, the white cat came out of the bookcase and meowed twice. Yan Saburo turned around, just in time to see it stretch out its paws and pull something out of the bookcase, and then look back at him with round eyes.
It was a small jade gourd waist pendant, only the thickness of the belly of the little finger, tied with a red rope.
Yan Saburo's heart moved, and he took a closer look: "What is this?" Qianqian is very human and understands what they are doing.
The white cat meowed twice, as if to tell.
Chitose immediately translated: "Last night, Bai Ling carried Tu Xing'er into the inn, and this jade pendant fell from Tu Xing'er's body and was picked up by Qianqian to play." "The white cat had been in the inn all night, and she hadn't looked through the cat's memories of the past few hours.
Yan Saburo was overjoyed, picked up the cat and kissed it on the forehead several times: "Qianqian is the most well-behaved and has the best luck!"
The white cat lowered her head shyly and arched into his arms.
"Hey!" Chitose was dissatisfied, "I know, you're relying on my luck right now!"
Yan Saburo's face was straightened: "With the jade pendant, can you track her whereabouts?"
"You can try. Chitose didn't have a good air, "However, we'd better figure out first, what is the origin of Wang Ming until the end!"
Only by figuring out the origin of this person can we know how to deal with him. Yan Saburo thought for a while: "Speaking of the people behind the scenes, he only used the word 'I', 'my duty', 'I will take action', 'I need someone to go in and clean up the hungry ghosts regularly'." ”
Chitose also noticed: "Maybe there is only one Guardian, and he has no companions. ”
As he spoke, a series of footsteps sounded in the hall of the inn, and he was in a hurry.
The shopkeeper had time to ask: "Bad master, what happened?" and a voice couldn't wait to interrupt him: "The official family is on an errand, everyone comes out!"
The sound was particularly loud, echoing at the top of the staircase.
With a few squeaks, the guests upstairs poked their heads out and looked down.
"Come out, go to the north of the city to protect the temple, there will be monsters attacking the city in a while!" the official's voice was full of impatience, "Don't blame us for not notifying you if you're dead." ”
The shopkeeper was shocked: "Poor master, what you said is true?"
"Isn't it steamed or boiled?" the official glanced at him, turned around and went to inform the next household. The order from above is almost forcing the dead, and within an hour, the living in the entire area must be notified to evacuate and make room for the dead ghosts!
As soon as he walked with his front feet, Yan Saburo heard the sound of shuddering and tidying up from the guest rooms on the second floor. Ordinary people don't go against the government. What's more, everyone has long noticed the vision of the western sky, which is a great omen!
If the city lord insists on saying that there is nothing wrong, it is a lie!
Yan Saburo went downstairs and met Bai Ling.
When the two walked out of the inn, there were more pedestrians on the street, carrying the old and the young, carrying the shoulders and carrying the covers, all rolled up and went east.
There was a look of worry on everyone's faces, and it was obvious that the words "monsters attacking the city" were still appalling.
However, the two turned a corner and passed by an alley, at the mouth of which a couple was persuading the old mother to evacuate, and the husband even wanted to take the thin and small mother away. The old woman's hair was only gray, but she grabbed the door frame and shouted: "I won't leave, the official will deceive people, I won't leave!"
The husband and wife were in a hurry: "Mother, what if there is really a monster attacking the city!"
"Let it come!" the old woman snorted, "I will never leave the old mansion!"
"That, that?" the husband was helpless, and the old woman added, "The official family loves to make a fuss." I've lived in Pantugou for decades, and there are wars and plagues here, and there have never been any monsters!"
That's right. The husband hesitated: "That's it, we'll stay with you." ”
The wife immediately became anxious and pulled her husband's sleeve: "What's the mess, there will be no one here in a while." Are you going to stay and die?"
The old woman pointed at her nose and scolded: "As long as you have foresight, as long as you are sensible, ah?
She was full of energy, and the whole alley could be heard. Bai Ling glanced at it several times when she heard the sound, but Yan Saburo didn't look back and walked forward.
"Bet no?" Chitose said with a grin, "Ten taels of gold, I bet that this couple will not be able to reach the North City Temple." ”
It's getting more and more generous, and she never bet more than ten taels of silver with him in the past. Yan Saburo didn't think twice: "Okay." ”
He and Bai Ling walked to the City Lord's Mansion, and they saw retrograde people along the way. Most of those who dared to go west at this time were the township soldiers of Pantugou. The city lord of Wu issued a death order, and he wanted to rush to the west city wall to strengthen and increase his troops when the hungry ghosts arrived.
The incident was in a hurry, and many soldiers were still confused. Yan Saburo heard the soldiers passing by talking all the way, and he didn't know what was going on and what the so-called "monster" looked like.
Of course, the city lord of Wu will not delegate all the information, if he lets these villagers know the true face of the "monster", I am afraid that he will become a deserter with weak legs. Pan Tugou has often won battles in recent years, and the officers and soldiers have shown confidence, and he is an elite that is rare in the entire Taoyuan Realm.
The chief officer walked on the sidelines, and did not drink orders to stop it, and even spoke and discussed.
When Yan Saburo saw this, he knew that the discipline of the township soldiers in Taoyuan was much worse than that of the outside world, and the Wei Army and the Liang Army had strict orders that the army "must not be arbitrarily discussed", otherwise the chief officer would be held responsible.
