Section 10: The Wind of Justice Comes at Your Will(3)
Ling'er was very surprised when she heard that the green ribbon Lan Yue'er was wearing on her hand was used by Qingfeng Xia. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Gongsun Qian looked at Ling'er so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth, so she kindly explained: "I heard that a catcher who was chasing Brother Qingfeng found a piece of cyan cloth and sent it to Jumbo Villa for auction. ”
"Huh?" Ling'er was shocked again.
"As soon as Sister Lan heard the news, she quietly rushed over and bought it back, it was really too much!" Gongsun Qian said.
Ling'er couldn't help but smile when she saw Gongsun Qian's uneven expression.
"Anyway, I'll tell everyone, let everyone compete fairly! When the news reaches us, the daylilies are cold. The more Gongsun Qian spoke, the more angry she became.
Ling'er smiled and said, "Then how do you know that the green ribbon is the green wind man's?"
"Sister, don't you know that cyan clothes can't be bought in the capital?" Gongsun Qian asked without answering.
"That could have been bought somewhere else. Ling'er guessed.
"Under the whole world, it is not the king's land. Sister, don't underestimate the influence of the government. If you want to buy cyan clothing, I'm afraid you have to go south. Gongsun Qian said.
Ling'er remembered the situation in Buzhuang when she went south, and at that time, she only cared about studying the different materials of the cloth, and did not pay attention to the color of the cloth at all.
"What is my sister thinking?" asked Gongsun Qian.
Ling'er came back to her senses and asked again: "Sister Lan is wearing a green ribbon so openly, is there really no problem?"
Gongsun Qian didn't understand what Ling'er meant at first, but it took a long time to comprehend it, and said: "The people don't dare to wear green clothes to go out for fear of suspicion, and this green ribbon came out of Zhenbao Villa, and it has a source, so naturally there is no suspicion." After speaking, she asked Ling'er again: "Do you know Treasure Villa?"
Ling'er shook her head.
Gongsun Qian said: "Treasure Villa collects treasures in the martial arts, and holds a regular auction meeting every month, and there will be any strange things at the conference, as long as you have silver taels, you can have anything you want." The provenance and whereabouts of the items traded through Treasure Hill are clearly documented. ”
"Do you have everything?" Ling'er asked.
"Yes!" said Gongsun Qian.
"What about the more exotic herbs?" Ling'er asked with interest.
"Yes, there are all kinds of miraculous pills. Gongsun Qian looked at Ling'er's novel and excited eyes, and continued, "There are also people in your rivers and lakes who like weapons, martial arts cheats, or something. ”
"There are so many types!" Ling'er exclaimed.
"Last time, I saw someone selling human skin masks!" Gongsun Qian hurriedly told Ling'er what she thought was bizarre.
Sure enough, Ling'er showed great curiosity.
"Does my sister know that kind of human skin mask? As soon as she put it on, she completely changed her appearance. Gongsun Qian said.
"It's a very advanced transfiguration, and it's extremely difficult to create a human skin mask. Ling'er remembered what she had learned from the Yixing Southern Envoy.
"I heard that many killers wear human skin masks to commit crimes, and no one knows his true face at all. There are also killers who do not wear human skin masks, but rather ordinary masks. When they wash their hands, as long as they take off their masks, they can live a normal life. When they send these masks to Treasure Heights, it means that the killer has retired. After that, all grievances and grievances have nothing to do with him, only with the person who bought this mask. And the origin and whereabouts of this mask are all registered by Jumbo Villa. Gongsun Qian said.
Ling'er said: "That is to say, we can go through the previous records, such as what people have traded, who sold it and when, and who bought it when?"
"Of course, you can! As long as you give a commission, you can check whatever you want. Gongsun Qian said.
Ling'er nodded.

On the second watch, the lights were still on in the east room of the Zhenxing Inn, and the sound of conversation was faintly heard.
"Master, you can sleep for a while! The two martial arts guards we invited this time are in the next room, what are you afraid of?" a middle-aged servant persuaded.
"No, I can't. The martial arts of the Qingfeng thief are very strong, and I don't know if those two guardians will work or not, so I must be vigilant. Lao Liu, you also cheer me up. The half-hundred man sat on the edge of the bed with a delicate little wooden box in his arms, and looked around nervously.
"We only brought this box of deed of sale this time, and we secretly entered Beijing with a disguise, and the itinerary was even hidden from the people in the house, and it was impossible for the Qingfeng thieves to know at all. You're scaring yourself. Lao Liu still did not give up persuading.
"You don't understand, that Qingfeng thief has high skills, and when we contacted the owners of those Qinglou in the capital, he might already know. The old man said nervously.
Lao Liu said helplessly: "Master, that Qingfeng thief is not three-headed and six-armed. Last year, we were too flamboyant, and we led a lot of girls into the city with great fanfare......"
"Shut up!" the old man said angrily, "Do you know how much we lost last year?
Lao Liu didn't dare to speak again, so he had to sit in the corner and yawn.
Suddenly, a cold wind blew through the window, making a "squeak" sound.
The old man was like a frightened bird, and he hugged the wooden box tighter in fear.
And Lao Liu on the side also shuddered.
Just then, the door was silently pushed open. A tall masked man in Tsing Yi walked in. Although I couldn't see his expression, I could feel a thick murderous aura between his eyebrows.
"Save ......" As soon as the old man wanted to open his mouth to call for help, he felt a cold cut across his neck, followed by the sound of sharp weapons entering the wall. He was shocked, how could he dare to call for help again? He hurriedly hugged the box and retreated to the corner of the bed, leaning against Lao Liu.
"No need to shout, the two people next door can't hear it for the time being. The man in Tsing Yi said coldly.
"What...... They ......" The old man was so frightened that he cried when he saw the man in Tsing Yi approaching, "You...... You...... You...... Stay back...... Don't come here......"
"Long time no see, Boss Qiu. The man in Tsing Yi greeted the old man coldly.
"Big ...... Swordsman...... Rao ......: "The old man can't cry anymore.
"Are you also afraid of death? Remember what you promised to do last year?" asked the man in Tsing Yi.
"I ...... Later...... Don't dare anymore!" the old man hurriedly assured.
"I've given you a chance. When you sell girls, aren't you really afraid of retribution?" said the man in Tsing Yi and approached step by step.
The old man hurriedly explained: "It's not like this......"
"If there is a ...... next time" The man in Tsing Yi didn't give him a chance to continue, and several cold rays shot out of his hand, and they didn't sink into the old man's many vital points.
The sound of a pig-killing roar streaked across the silent night sky.
Although he didn't take the old man's life, it didn't make the rest of his life better. This is also a kind of retribution.
The man in Tsing Yi sighed, looked at Lao Liu, who was already frightened on the side, stepped forward to take the wooden box, put it into his backpack after a little inspection, and found a large handful of silver tickets on the old man.
At this time, the inn was already in a commotion.
The man in Tsing Yi turned out of the window with the uneasiness of disturbing the traveler's dream, and disappeared into the vast dark night like a gust of wind.
