Chapter Ninety-Three: I Saw It
His grandmother's shock was again, and Liu Yuan had a bad premonition in his heart. No task will be completed at this time, and if the pendant vibrates, then there is only one possibility.
Liu Yuan cried with a sad face, flattened his lower lip, and hammered the ground with his right fist, if it weren't for the darkness at this time, his head was wrapped and he couldn't see his face clearly, and he would find that he was even more sad than Lei Xiaoxiao, the person who lost the goods.
Reaching out and patting Ray on the shoulder for comfort, he whispered in his ear, "Get up." ”
"Whew......" Lei Xiao let out a long breath and slowly stood up from the ground with a torch in his hand.
The worst result is still coming, but after all, it must be faced, Lei Xiaoxiao calmed down and followed a large number of people and horses towards the bottom of the mountain.
After exploring Jiming Mountain, it is time to go back as soon as possible to recover his life, except for some utensils, he has not found much valuable.
What Zheng could see, Dou Qichu of the Yuan Imperial Pavilion naturally noticed that most of these thieves were disciples of the Iron Mountain Gang that was destroyed back then.
There is no need to say these things to the Qingchuan County Ya, and they are free to report to the imperial court. It stands to reason that the trees are falling and scattering, but I didn't expect these people to quietly gather again, and they had to pay attention to it.
Overnight, a carrier pigeon flew out of the vermilion lacquer gate, straight into the air, and headed in the direction of the capital.
Naturally, not everything can use the six-tailed falcon, although this carrier pigeon is much worse than the six tails, but it is not comparable to ordinary carrier pigeons, it is the Yuan Imperial Pavilion carefully bred for many years.
At the same time, most of the guards in the city left the city to go to Jiming Mountain and did not return, and one rode a fast horse away from the city and took the official road to the southwest road where the Li family clan was located.
The letter was written in a unique way, and even if it was lost or robbed in the middle of the way, it would not be incomprehensible in the slightest.
When the county lord led the soldiers and horses into the city, the sky was already completely dark, and the half-arc white moon hung high in the sky, and a little starlight lined the surroundings.
After entering the city, Liu Yuan and Lin Zhutou said goodbye and followed Lei Xiaoxiao to the inn.
Except for the occasional patrol of the street, there are few pedestrians along the way, Liu Yuan asked Lei Xiaoxiao a question before, what to do after finding the goods.
Now that the situation is completely different, Liu Yuan asked again, "What are you going to do next?"
After the previous incident of the thieves, the relationship between the two has become a lot closer, Lei Xiaoxiao looked at the moon above his head, and said slowly: "Chase, chase down the mountain road, I want to see where these thieves transport those things." ”
The goods were not on Jiming Mountain, Liu Yuan was also very curious, he thought that those thieves were just temporarily gathered, but judging from the behavior of the county and the goods transported, there seemed to be people behind them......
How can it be so difficult to open an inn with peace of mind, Liu Yuan also looked up at the moon in the sky, fortunately, after this incident, he was finally able to settle down.
After a while, the two walked to the door of the first inn in the world, the door was hidden, and a trace of orange light came out of the crack in the door, Liu Yuan stepped forward and pushed the door and walked in.
The inn was brightly lit, and Li Lanxin and Zheng Dongxi were both waiting at the table. To Liu Yuan's surprise, Lei Qingfeng was also sitting on the side.
When he saw Lei Xiaoxiao, the latter took the lead in standing up and took two steps forward and said, "Sister, how is it, have we found our goods, Uncle Seventh has woken up." ”
"Nope. Lei Xiaoxiao shook his head, didn't want to say more about this matter, and said, "Let's go, let's go see Uncle Seven." The two of them said and walked to the backyard.
Leaving Liu Yuan behind, he couldn't help shaking his head, this brother was too much worse than his sister.
"Rest early, too. "I'm really tired today, Liu Yuan looked at the two, walked to the counter after speaking, and began to dial the abacus, calculating how much silver it would cost to replace those new tables and chairs.
"Okay, I'll go up and rest with the shopkeeper. Li Lanxin yawned, carefully letting go of the pit on the stairs and going upstairs.
When Li Lanxin left, Zheng Dongxi walked to Liu Yuan with a hesitant and a little embarrassed.
Liu Yuan raised his head, looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked, "What's the matter, do you have anything else?"
"Well, the shopkeeper, aren't you curious about my origin or identity?" Zheng Dongxi said with a deep breath.
Obviously, Zheng Dongxi refers to his previous performance against those thieves.
"Haha, what's there to be curious about, everyone has secrets, I just need to know that you are my buddy. Liu Yuan said indifferently and said, "Hide yourself, don't be discovered by the people who come to investigate later." ”
It's just these two sentences, Zheng Dongxi, who listened to it, was moved, nodded vigorously, and secretly said in his heart At this time, the shopkeeper still cared so much about himself, and there were tears flashing in his eyes.
Blinking, Zheng Dongxi said again: "I'll go to sleep with the shopkeeper." With that, he walked towards the backyard, the shop in the backyard had been cleaned up, and Zheng moved over.
Looking at the back of Zheng Dongxi's walk, Liu Yuan secretly thought funny in his heart, isn't it a disciple of the Divine Thief Sect, I already knew.
The flickering candle flame was blown by the wind, Liu Yuan took out the recipe for the slippery egg tofu that had been hidden on the counter, the night was silent, no one bothered him this time, he read it carefully, and after remembering it all, he burned it as usual.
Closing his eyes and recalling again, Liu Yuan regretted a little in his heart, he shouldn't have priced the boiled fish in seven perfume for only one tael of silver, resulting in the price of this slippery egg tofu can only be lower than one tael now.
Eggs and tofu can't be more expensive than fish, that's right, but Liu Yuan always feels a loss in his heart.
Well, it's just eight pennies. Liu Yuan pinched his fingers and pondered in his heart, if his words were known by those diners outside, what impulsive actions would he make.
Black-hearted merchants, one or two pieces of silver is how many people spend in a month, and it's not enough.
Whew, blew out the candles in the lobby, and Liu Yuan walked upstairs in the dark.
There was nothing to say all night, and in the early morning of the second day, Liu Yuan came downstairs early, beckoning Zheng Dongxi to go out to find a carpenter and look at the tables and chairs.
There was a guest at the door of the inn, who was dressed in silk and satin, wearing a jade wrench on the thumb of his right hand, and looked at Liu Yuan with a smile: "The shopkeeper is good, I haven't seen you for a few days." ”
"Wang Dashan man. Liu Yuan's eyes lit up and he stepped forward.
......
On the Shengtian Road, on the long street of Qingping in the bustling city of Kyoto, three of the six departments are located here, and this hour is the busiest time of the day, and the door of the Ministry of Rites and Rites of the Criminal Department comes and goes.
There is a circle of courtyards with black tiles and white walls that are not very eye-catching, and there are many doors, which looks a little out of place on this bustling Qingping Street, and there is a dozing old man on the stone steps at the door.
Suddenly, the old man stretched out his right hand, and a white dove landed on his wrist, and when he opened his eyes, the old man strode into the house while stretching out his hand to tease the pigeon with great interest.
The old man's back gradually disappeared around the corner, and on the stone steps, there was a black plaque, and the three big characters of the Yuan Imperial Pavilion stood out on it.
