Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Visit to Gem City.
Changkang looked for the direction of the proprietress and chased out the door.
"Stop!"
The three Iron Generals turned around.
Changkang said: "Did you come to this store yesterday? Did a girl say something nasty to you?"
The Iron General held a dagger he had just bought, and the skin of the scabbard was embroidered with a dragon pattern with gold thread, which was lifelike.
He pretended not to understand and said, "Ahhh
"Don't pretend, the proprietress saw it with her own eyes!"
The proprietress leaned her head cautiously against the door frame, and when she saw General Iron staring at her, she was so frightened that she quickly retracted her head.
"You said that prickly woman? Yes, we didn't pay attention to her. β
Changkang thought to himself: General Tie said so, and the proprietress also said that they didn't have a conflict at that time. Jin'er is usually an open-mouthed person, but she doesn't really have malicious intentions. And they are outsiders, and they seem to be good at martial arts, if they hold a grudge, it is not impossible to sneak into the mansion and arrest Jin'er. But what can we do now if there is no evidence?
"What's your name, and why are you coming to Gem City?"
General Tie said impatiently: "What are you doing?
Changkang was speechless, and watched the three of them swagger away.
When they turned into another street, Changkang followed.
They also went to a jade shop, two gem shops, and a weapons shop, and the wolf tooth and eagle feather were holding a full box in their hands, and the relaxed iron general saw that it was getting dark, and finally stopped shopping, and said that he was going back to the inn.
Changkang booked a room at the Jinhua Inn so that he could follow them further.
Chang'an waited until noon the next day, and the door of the three of them's room had not even been opened, so he couldn't hold it back, so he went to ask Xiao Er, who cleaned the room.
"Have the guests in these three rooms checked out?"
Xiao Er thought for a while and said, "You are?"
"I'm their friend, and I made an appointment to go out together today, but they haven't come out yet, and I'm embarrassed to bother, so ......"
"Okay, I'll go down and take a look. β
"Thank you. β
Xiao Er checked the housing record and said to Changkang: "There is no check-out record, and they have paid for ten days, so they won't leave so soon." Why don't I call them for you?"
Changkang refused: "No need, I'll just go by myself." β
"Okay. β
Changkang came to the door of General Tie's room, to make sure that there were no idle people around, he first listened to whether there was any movement inside, and then slowly pushed the door, pushed open a crack, and looked at the table, no one. On the bed, the cups are stacked neatly.
Changkang pushed open the door and walked in, only to find that there was indeed no one inside, and the items were neatly arranged, as if no one had ever lived there.
Changkang went to open the other two doors again, the same, there was no one and no trace of living there, even so many things they bought yesterday were gone, where did they go?
Tianxiao was sitting on the birth tree in the Red Courtyard, thinking about whether to tell Master about this.
The door of the red courtyard was pushed open, and a lost little junior walked in with a bunch of red threads.
He looked up and saw Tianxiao, and shouted a little nervously: "Senior brother, it turns out that you are here, I have been looking for you for a while." β
Tianxiao jumped down from the Shengyuan tree, walked up to him and said with a smile: "What's wrong?"
"Senior brother, I encountered something. It's just that I just wrote my name on the jade plaque, and there is a woman whose name I can't write......"
Tianxiao nodded helplessly: "Here it is again......"
The little junior brother thought that Tianxiao was talking about him, so he quickly lowered his head and admitted his mistake: "Senior brother, I was wrong, it must be something wrong with my previous steps......!"
"I didn't mean you, what's the woman's name?"
"It's called Li Jin'er. β
"What about his destined people?"
"It's called Changkang!"
"Okay, you hang these up first. This matter has nothing to do with you, don't worry. β
The little junior brother finally breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "Okay senior brother." β
Tianxiao stole a jar of wine from Yue Lao and gave it to Lord Shengyun.
Tianxiao frowned and said, "My lord, I think I really have to tell Tianjun about this." β
"Another woman is missing?"
Tianxiao nodded helplessly.
Master Shengyun said seriously: "It's really endless." β
Shengyun helped Tianxiao find out that this Li Jin'er was the eldest lady in the only silk village in the gem city.
"Thank you, Lord Shengyun, no matter what the result is when I come back this time, I will report to the Heavenly Monarch. β
"Okay, stay safe. β
Tianxiao took Fu Jisheng to Gem City.
As soon as I entered the city, I saw a missing person notice posted on the notice board next to the wall, and when I got closer, I was really looking for Li Jin'er.
Fu Jisheng said: "Tianxiao, have you found out?" Every time they take a woman, they have to change places, so as not to attract the attention of the city?"
"Perhaps, but the person they arrested this time is the eldest lady who knows all the Jewel City. Moreover, she is about to marry a person named Changkang. β
"It's really annoying, they've already dismantled three pairs of destined people, this is against you!"
Tianxiao nodded: "Yes." β
Tianxiao and Fu Jisheng came to the Jinhua Inn, and after looking around, there was only one person who looked like a scholar drinking alone on the table in the corner.
Tianxiao and Fu Jisheng found a table and sat down, ordered a few dishes, and more importantly, got some news from Xiao Er's mouth.
"Okay, the dishes for the two of you are ready, please use it slowly. β
Tianxiao stopped him and said, "Little brother, you see that there are not many people in this store, I have some questions to ask you." β
Xiao Er looked around, and he was indeed not busy.
"You said, guest officer. β
"When we entered the city, we saw a missing person notice posted on the notice board, what happened?"
"Ah, that's it. Three days ago, Li Jin'er, the eldest lady of the Li family's silk village in our city, disappeared, and the people of the Li Mansion have been looking for three days, and the whole city is going to be turned over, but they still haven't found it. β
"That's the case, we also heard that this Li Jin'er is going to marry a person named Changkang?"
Xiao Er glanced at the scholar in the corner, approached Tianxiao and whispered: "No, the one who drinks in the corner is Li Jin'er's fiancΓ© Changkang." β
Tianxiao and Fu Jisheng looked over at the same time, and were called back by Xiao Er.
"Don't look at it, I think this eldest son is a little in bad spirits. β
Fu Jisheng said: "What do you say?"
"Since he knew that Li Jin'er was missing, this fiancΓ© was not in a hurry to find someone, but stayed in our shop! β
Tianxiao said: "Okay, thank you little brother." β
"It's okay, it's okay, let's eat quickly, it's going to be cold in a while." β
"Good, good. β
After Xiao Er left, Tianxiao and Fu Jisheng also felt that this Changkang was a little strange, why did he stay in this inn, or was it someone he was waiting for here?
Tianxiao said: "I think there must be a reason for him to stay here, like waiting for someone." β
The chopsticks in Fu Jisheng's hand were not idle, and his mouth was finally empty.
"Wait for someone to come back here?"
"It's not impossible. β
Fu Jisheng put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, got up and said, "Let's go, let's go ask him." β
Tianxiao was a little panicked and said, "Why do you ask?"
"Don't forget, we're a natural match. β
