Into the Rivers and Lakes Chapter 65: A Trip to the Night Market
Although the night market in the north of the city is called the "night market", there are only more than 20 stalls in total, after all, the city itself is not big, it is just a small city composed of some fleeing exiles.
The stalls in the night market are basically folk snacks, the wine is the strongest and cheapest soju, and the dishes are the small dishes of the stall owners' own homes.
Without saying anything all the way, the young Ye Feng came out of the small fence yard and took the ingots straight to the night market in the north of the city.
At this time, the sky has not completely darkened, and there are only a few stalls scattered in the open space of the night market.
Casually picked a small noodle stall and sat down, Ye Feng ordered a clear water noodle, planning to wait for Lu Yi and Su Qinghua to come and then start an investigation.
After all, Lu Yi is the Ten Realms of the Little Perfection, and Su Qinghua is also the Eight Realms of Foundation Building, if Ye Feng joins forces with them, he can save a lot of trouble.
"Your face, young man!"
The female stall owner wearing a linen apron came to Ye Feng with small steps, her face was kind.
Ye Feng took the noodles, thanked them politely, and put the noodles on the table.
Ye Feng took out chopsticks from the bamboo tube on the side, and was just about to start eating, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the female stall owner standing by the cauldron and looking at him motionlessly, with a very strange smile, he couldn't help but be embarrassed and said: "Auntie, can you not look at me like this, you are like this... I'm embarrassed to eat it. ”
The stall owner was stunned, hurriedly apologized to Ye Feng, turned around and continued to roll out the noodles.
Seeing that the woman was no longer looking at him, Ye Feng ignored the toad ingots on his shoulders that were bulging because he had no meat to eat, and took a big bite of the noodles by himself.
The small stall owner not far away secretly looked at Ye Feng from the corner of his eye while rolling noodles, and muttered in a low voice: "Looking at a very good child, why do you go out with a toad?
By the time Ye Feng finished eating the noodles, the night had completely fallen, and the open space of the night market was unconsciously full of stalls, and the young man got up and looked around, but still didn't see Lu Yi and Su Qinghua.
So the boy planned to go around the night market first to see if he could find some clues, and as soon as he turned around, he heard a familiar voice calling his name behind him.
Following the prestige, it is Lu Yi.
On Lu Yi's side, there was Su Qinghua, who was able to get into people's bones, but today she was not wearing last night's tulle skirt, but changed into a light cyan silk skirt.
A white hosta coils a green silk hair behind her head, and the girl's temperament is less charming and enchanting, adding a bit of everyone's beautiful taste.
However, at this time, Su Qinghua's face was covered with a layer of frost for some reason, her hands were clasped to her chest, her mouth was pinned, and she didn't look at Ye Feng. Clear-eyed people knew at a glance that she was angry with Ye Feng.
It's a pity that the young Ye Feng didn't notice the emotional changes of the girl in Tsing Yi, he walked quickly to the two of them with Xuan Jiao, and lifted the two of them to an alley with a few simple greetings.
The three of them stopped, Lu Yi curiously looked at the toad ingots on Ye Feng's shoulders, the man raised his hand and gently poked the snow-white belly of the ingots, and teased Ye Feng: "Boy, which one are you singing?
Ye Feng laughed, only said that Yuan Bao was a pet he raised, and after a few perfunctory words, he began to discuss the epidemic with Lu Yi.
It turned out that after Su Qinghua went back last night to inform Lu Yi and the others about the situation of the pharmacy, Lu Yi changed his plan to take Lin Qiuyue to the pharmacy to see a doctor the next day, and said that Lin Qiuyue's illness had been delayed for so long, and it didn't matter if he waited for two more days, it was better to solve the sudden outbreak of the epidemic in the city first.
At dawn the next day, Lu Yi went out to find a few friends who were messing around, and went to the pharmacy to help maintain order.
Then he happened to meet the Shen family's father and daughter who were worried because there were too many patients and the herbs could not be welcomed, so Lu Yi asked the tiger mother to stay in the gambling house to take care of Lin Qiuyue, and he immediately took Su Qinghua and Mei Lan Zhuju out of the city.
A few people turned around the wild mountains outside the city, and finally got together some herbs that Shen Ting needed to solve the urgent need, and after that, Lu Yi asked Meilan Zhuju to stay in the pharmacy to help out, and he and Su Qinghua came to the night market to make an appointment with Ye Feng.
After listening to Lu Yi's narration, Ye Feng couldn't help but feel a little guilty and self-blame in his heart.
Everyone was busy about the epidemic, but he chatted with the toad ingots in the Shen family hut for an afternoon, and ate a bowl of noodles at the night market unhurriedly... This is really undeserved!
The emotions on Ye Feng's face naturally couldn't escape the eyes of the old fritter Lu Yi, and the man was afraid that Ye Feng would drill the tip of the horns, so he hurriedly patted Ye Feng's shoulder, and said with a haha:
"Oh, boy, don't think about useless things, I ask you, do you know that there is a person who hasn't seen you for a day and thinks you're going crazy?"
As soon as the words fell, Lu Yi felt a heart-piercing pain coming from his lower back. Su Qinghua, who had been holding her mouth and kept silent, reached out and pinched the man's back waist.
In front of Ye Feng, Lu Yi couldn't make any moves, so he could only endure the pain and grin non-stop.
"Someone misses me?"
Ye Feng was stunned, rolled his eyes and thought for a long time, and asked Lu Yi, "Is it Ma Lao, is Ma Lao worried about me?"
As soon as the young man said this, not only Lu Yi, but even the toad ingots couldn't listen to it, and the toad secretly said Ye Feng usually looked at a very witty and sharp person, why was his EQ so low?
In fact, after Ye Feng and Yuan Bao finished talking about last night's incident, Yuan Bao had already guessed that the woman named Su Qinghua in Ye Feng's mouth must have taken a fancy to Ye Feng, otherwise he would not have chased the young man all the way in the middle of the night in order to understand the location of the pharmacy.
It is precisely because of Su Qinghua that Yuan Bao will beg Ye Feng to come along, and he has to come along, this toad mainly wants to see who has the same vision as himself, and can see Ye Feng's potential stock!
Su Qinghua looked at Ye Feng, who was at a loss, and suddenly felt angry, and secretly cursed, "It's really a wooden head", snorted lightly, and forked:
"Hmph, when is it? You two are still in the mood to chat here? It's really relieved, and you don't have to worry about anything! Forget it! You can talk! I'll find clues myself!"
The girl in Tsing Yi ignored Ye Feng and Lu Yi anymore, and walked towards the crowd of the night market alone.
Ye Feng looked at Su Qinghua's back even more dazed, turned his head and complained to Lu Yi with an innocent face: "Brother Lu Yi, her temper is inevitably too weird, right?"
Lu Yi couldn't open his mouth when he heard it, so he could only smile awkwardly and nod yes, seeing that Su Qinghua was getting farther and farther, he hurriedly pulled Ye Feng to catch up.
The three of them walked around in the night market for nearly an hour, but they didn't gain anything.
Looking at the bustling crowd in the surrounding stalls, Su Qinghua couldn't hold her breath at first.
She stopped, stamped her feet at the two of them and complained, "Really, I don't know what to look up when I'm walking around... Why don't you ask the vendors if they have poisoned their food?"
Lu Yi slapped his chin when he heard this, his mouth grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, and nodded again and again, "Good idea!
As he spoke, the man took Su Qinghua's arm and walked towards the nearest stall.
Seeing this, Ye Feng hurriedly grabbed the two reckless guys, and was just about to speak, when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a scholar-like man in the stall not far from the opposite side who was secretly taking out a bag of things from his arms and handing it to the stall owner.
And that stall is the one where Ye Feng ate noodles before.
Su Qinghua and Lu Yi were dragged by Ye Feng, and turned their heads at the same time, wanting to speak, but saw Ye Feng twisting his eyebrows and looking in the direction behind the two of them, following the young man's gaze, the two of them saw the sneaky scene of the scholar and the stall owner at the same time.
"Don't turn your head!"
Ye Feng was afraid that the two of them would startle the snake, so he hurriedly reminded in a whisper.
Su Qinghua and Lu Yi reacted immediately, turned their heads back, and pretended to get together to chat and catch up.
After the scholar handed the things to the stall owner, he whispered a few words in the ear of the woman stall owner, then took out two silver ingots from his sleeve and handed them to the stall owner, and finally looked around, and saw that no one noticed him, so he straightened his clothes and walked briskly towards the outside of the night market.
Ye Feng watched the scholar's back disappear at the intersection, and hurriedly glanced at Su Qinghua and the others, and the three of them chased after them together.
After following the scholar around the city for a long time, the scholar who walked in front still had no intention of stopping, which made Ye Feng even more sure that he must have some ulterior secret!
Because Ye Feng had already used his name to investigate the scholar and knew that he was just an ordinary person with no cultivation at all, it was impossible for him to detect the tracking of Ye Feng and the others.
Then he went around for only one purpose, that is, he did something shady and habitually went around in circles here to prevent someone from following him!
After continuing to walk for nearly half a pillar of incense, the scholar in front of him stopped suddenly, swept around on guard again, and saw that there was no one around, so he quickly walked into the alley on the side.
Ye Feng and the three of them glanced at each other, and together they held their breath and walked slowly towards the alley.
When they walked less than ten steps away from the alley, the three of them stopped together, and at the same time heard a whispered conversation between the two people faintly coming from the alley:
"Don't worry, waiting, butler! I've done everything, and I've told you about the night market!"
"Okay, it's really hard for you to do things for the young master these days!"
"Hey~ What is hard work, it is my blessing to be able to do things for Young Master Qingping!"
"Hehe, hehe. ”
Hearing this, Ye Feng naturally heard that the behind-the-scenes manipulator of this epidemic should be the young master Qingping in the two mouths of the people in the alley.
It's just that Ye Feng's time is mostly spent practicing or studying medicine, and he doesn't know much about these things in Thousand Caves City, so he doesn't think there is anything special about this Qingping Young Master.
After hearing this, Su Qinghua and Lu Yi turned their heads to look at each other at the same time, and their eyes were mixed with anger and surprise.
