Yin Xuesong glanced at Xiao Lie on the side, and Xiao Lie willingly said their method on behalf of Yin Xuesong.

Not long after Xing Hao and Zuo Tianming left, Peng Sanding, the owner of the Peng Family Martial Arts Hall, hurriedly found Xiao Lie, and said cautiously after seeing Xiao Lie: "The person you are looking for in the case you are working on now, I estimate that there is a person who can help you, and it is very likely that this person can tell you who the disguiser is or where he is hiding now." ”

Xiao Lie felt that this matter could be big or small, so big that if the news was spread, the disguised person would flee in a panic, and so small that the news would be of no use to them at all, even if he could tell where this person was hiding now, it didn't mean that he would still settle there now. The most dangerous place is the safest place to fool people, and if you always nest in one place, it is equivalent to sending people to death. Xiao Lie thought about it again and again, looked at the people in the courtyard, and when he saw that no one was paying attention to him, he closed the door. said to Peng Sanding: "Pavilion Master Peng, the weight of this matter can be big or small, you can think about it." ”

Peng Sanding said firmly: "Don't worry, I can take one hundred and twenty percent of the responsibility for what I have to say." Xiang Xiao Lie leaned forward and continued: "I have an old acquaintance named Qian Jin, who is seventy or eighty years old this year, and I have not been embarrassed to ask about the specific age. When he came to Hecheng a few years ago, we lived in a neighborhood, but later he felt that our street was noisy and affected his rest, so he moved to a courtyard in the east of the city. This old gentleman looks inconspicuous, but he has a lot of family property, and he can buy a yard casually, which shows that the family is rich, which is not something you and I can imagine. ”

Xiao Lie added a cup of tea to Peng Sanding and asked, "Does this person have anything to do with this matter?" Judging from these contents, he is just an old man from a well-to-do family, does he have any secrets?"

Peng Sanding continued: "I don't know what secrets there are, but once, he invited me to his house for a drink. The two of us were also more happy, and he told me about one of his skills. This skill is disguise, and he showed me it that night, and the object of disguise is me. That craftsmanship is simply amazing, whether it is from the appearance, or from the behavior, talking and voice, it is the same as me, the similarity is so high, I definitely can't even recognize my own mother. ”

"Do you suspect that he is the murderer of Senior Brother Calculation Yin?" Xiao Lie asked.

"I don't doubt him, but I think that if I ask him about this matter, I can make a breakthrough. As long as we can find a point that can be broken through, we won't be so blind and delayed. Peng Sanding tentatively looked at the direction of the door, listened carefully, and continued when he confirmed that there was no one outside the door: "This disguise technique itself is a rare stunt in the world, and now that such a thing has happened, I think it is necessary to disturb this old man and see if he can know some news that is beneficial to us." Don't look at this old man's age, but he knows no less things than the heroic writers who wander all over the world. I didn't expect that my horizons were only broadened, and there must be some story in this old man that I didn't want to mention. And the murderer can never be him, you think, how did Miss Fang die, as soon as you think about it, you know that it can't be done by him. You should think about when to meet him. ”

"I don't think about it. Xiao Lie immediately said: "I'll go to Yin Xuesong, and the two of us will go to him now." If there is hope, we must keep going for hope. ”

Peng Sanding hurriedly stopped Xiao Lie and said to him, "If you two go like this, I'm afraid you won't get anything from him." ”

"What then? Does he have any favorite object or something? No matter how hard it takes, I'll give it to him." Xiao Lie asked.

"He's a guy who likes to eat, especially noodles. I know, you have a Hai Ye named Zhao Haiquan here, and he is a good banquet. If you take him to this old-timer, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Tell you a way to get his attention quickly, you go at noon, the old-timers usually don't go to restaurants and restaurants to eat, he does it himself. When you go, let Hai Ye say that what he makes smells bad or something, and he will definitely come out to refute it immediately, and maybe let Hai Ye compete with him. As long as we win him and let him convince him to admit defeat, our goal will be achieved. ”

After keeping these things in mind, Xiao Lie found Zhao Haiquan and Yin Xuesong, and told the two of them what Peng Sanding had told him. Zhao Haiquan's first reaction was: "This person's temper is so weird, what I'm afraid of is that after we win, he still doesn't say it, what can we do? Or simply don't know what to do, aren't we just busy in vain." ”

"If he refuses to tell us, there is nothing he can do, he can only think of other things. After all, we are here to beg him, not to interrogate him. Yin Xuesong instructed Xiao Lie and Zhao Haiquan: "When the time comes, take away the tempers of the two of you, the old man is already weird and abnormal, if you make him unhappy, I'm afraid we won't even have a chance to find a way." ”

After making preparations, the three of them found Qian Jin's residence according to the address Peng Sanding said. Yin Xuesong knocked on the door three times politely and said inside: "Is Mr. Qian at home?" After a while, there was a sound of procrastinating footsteps in the door, and a slightly old voice said: "Who is this, how can you come to the door at lunch time, this is very impolite, don't you understand this reason?" The courtyard door was slowly opened a small crack.

The three of them immediately clasped their fists and bowed deeply, and Yin Xuesong, who was standing at the front, replied: "You are Mr. Qian Jinqian, we are friends of the owner of Peng Sanding Peng, the reason why we are abrupt and disturbing, there is really a big matter I want to ask you for help." For the ignorance and ignorance of our younger generations, please bear with me. ”

"I can't wait, I'm already ready for lunch, you can come back in the afternoon. As soon as Mr. Qian was about to close the door, he immediately added: "I have a good habit of taking a nap after lunch, so come back in two hours." At that time, if I am at home, I will invite you to come in and sit down, if I am not at home, then there is no choice but to come back tomorrow. Time is still that time, not more than a moment, not a moment less. With that, he closed the door.

The old man's personality completely let the three of them know what it means that the stones in the thatched hut are smelly and hard. At the moment when Senior Qian closed the courtyard door, Zhao Haiquan said to Xiao Lie and Yin Xuesong: "This chicken stewed mushroom is not authentic, and the time and heat are not in place. He took a few breaths with his nose vigorously: "The chicken is a Luhua chicken, and the mushroom is the yellow mushroom on the mountain. ”

When Zhao Haiquan said this, Qian Jin hadn't gone far, and when he heard Zhao Haiquan say that the things he made were not delicious, he pulled the courtyard door open, and said angrily to the three people outside: "Which person is ashamed to say that the things I make are not delicious?"

Zhao Haiquan saw that this old man had been tricked, and with excitement, he pretended to be calm and said, "Mr. Qian, the person who spoke just now is below." It was the smell of the vegetables in your house wafting out, and I happened to smell it, so I thought that the cook in your house must have made this dish for you indiscriminately, and I also felt that his way of doing it was like destroying the heavens. So I couldn't help but babble a few words, and asked the old gentleman to calm his anger. ”

"I don't have a cook in my house, and I cook my own food every day. You don't have to be modest, you can tell what kind of chicken and mushroom I use just by smell, it seems that you are also a person who has studied food. However, I regret what you said. You don't have a grasp of the essence of food, and it's no wonder that these two extremely delicious things are not delicious when put together. Qian Jin said unceremoniously.

"I'm sorry, blame me for being rude, old gentleman all thought I was a crazy demon lockheart, just talk nonsense here. You enjoy it slowly, and I'll retire first. Without waiting for the old man Qian to close the door, Zhao Haiquan led Xiao Lie and Yin Xuesong to turn around and leave.

Just when they didn't go far, Mr. Qian shouted: "Stop, I don't believe it today, this Luhua chicken stewed with yellow mushrooms is not delicious." Don't go, come in with me, I want you to know that my craft, old lady, is a martial artist. How could such a reputation be ruined in your mouths in vain? He glanced at the three people standing at the door in a daze and said, "What's the matter, is my old man's speech so weightless? Are you going to let me use eight sedan chairs to carry you in one by one?"

The three of them reacted immediately and walked in with Mr. Qian. Let these three people have lunch with him, saying that they want to educate them well.

After settling these three people, he went to the kitchen to bring up the chicken stew and mushrooms that had just come out of the pot, sat down by Zhao Haiquan, picked up a piece of chicken and put it on Zhao Haiquan's plate and said: "Didn't you say that what I made is not delicious, come, taste it, you can also tell me carefully, why is this dish I made not delicious." ”

Zhao Haiquan unceremoniously put the chicken into his mouth, and after the chicken was in his stomach, Zhao Haiquan smiled at Qian Jin and said: "This Luhua chicken ranks first in the poultry industry with its own deliciousness, and this yellow mushroom is incomparable to many mountain mushrooms." But putting the two of them together, it's almost meaningless. The meat of this Luhua chicken is soft and tender, and it is easy to absorb the flavor of the ingredients themselves, so this chicken tastes faintly earthy, and the reason is that he absorbs the taste of yellow mushrooms. And this yellow mushroom is only suitable for stir-frying, not for stewing. This yellow mushroom has an earthy fragrance that is as refreshing as spring air. This fragrance should never be simmered in boiling water, if you stew it like you are now, the taste will be ruined, and the texture will be very hard. ”

"What you kid said is true, or else, you go and make me something you think is delicious with these two ingredients. If it's done well, it's fine, if it's not delicious, hum... You will never step out of my courtyard today. ”
