Chapter 323: The Man Who Reached Xiaoqiao died early

Shen Linfeng thought about it, and finally only came to one conclusion. The Ulan Demon Sect stepped into the Central Plains, just for the Seven Star Map. And not long ago, they just got a clue to the Seven Star Chart. Therefore, Shen Linfeng believed that everything the Demon Sect was doing now must be related to the Seven Star Chart.

In other words, they kidnapped Ling'er in order to go to Dongling Mountain. Then, the next treasure of the Seven Star Map may be hidden in this Dongling Mountain.

"Could it be...... Is it related to Ling'er's grandfather?" Shen Linfeng glanced at Gan Ling'er, who was sleeping.

"It's just a Langzhong, what treasure can he have?"

The next day, the sun shone through the slightly open window and poured over Shen Linfeng's body. The birds in the courtyard chirped in unison, as if urging the two people in the house to get up quickly.

"Ling'er, Ling'er!"

"Huh?"

"Hurry up, it's time to hit the road!"

"Hmm...... What time is it?"

"It's already hour!"

"Oh!" Gan Ling'er quickly got up and hurriedly packed up.

Shen Linfeng originally planned to set off at the end of the day, but it may have been too tired last night, so neither of them woke up early.

Fortunately, Xiaoqiao Town is not far from the bamboo forest, only more than ten miles away, with the foot strength of the red flame, it is estimated that it will only take a stick of incense to arrive.

After hastily cleaning up, Gan Linger looked at the closed courtyard door and was reluctant to leave for a long time.

"Let's go!"

"Say, do I have a chance to come back?"

"Yes, you will go back to this familiar place with your father and your mother!"

Gan Ling'er smiled lightly, and she tightened the burden behind her.

"Let's go!"

"Drive!" the red flame hissed into the sky, and then disappeared.

In the town of Xiaoqiao, there are about four or five hundred households. Although the streets are broken, there are all kinds of shops. The rivers in the town are intricate, and there are no less than forty or fifty stone bridges of various kinds.

Shen Linfeng led the horse slowly, and Gan Ling'er was like a hare that had sprinkled joy, and she had already run away.

There is an endless stream of pedestrians in the town, and it is estimated that many people from nearby villages come here to buy. Shen Linfeng only inquired about the shopkeeper of a noodle restaurant, and then he knew where Uncle Zhao lived.

The town's rivers are intricate, with many wooden boats paddling slowly under the bridge. Shen Linfeng and Gan Ling'er had just crossed a stone bridge, and they were blocked by several officers and soldiers.

"Hey, what are you two doing?"

"This official, my brother and sister are looking for an old friend in front!"

"Old friend?" the soldier gripped the hilt of his knife and circled around Shen Linfeng twice.

"Wait here, there has been a murder in front of you, and you can't go over for the time being!" After saying that, the soldier turned to guard the bridge.

Shen Linfeng and Gan Ling'er glanced at each other, he didn't want to cause more trouble, so he could only rush to the bridge and wait for the release.

"Ouch, you didn't see it, it's so fucking miserable!"

"Yes, yes, I heard that my hands and feet were cut off, and even my head was cut off. ”

"Hey, it's really strange to say, that old Zhao is usually very honest, how could he suddenly be killed?"

More than a dozen townspeople gathered at the bridge, and they kept talking.

The speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. When Shen Linfeng heard the word "Lao Zhao", he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

"This old man, may I ask who was killed in front of you?"

The old man was neatly dressed, had a decent face, and was quite polite in his gestures.

"The man who was killed was surnamed Zhao, and he was a helper at the town's pharmacy. ”

Shen Linfeng's heart was cold, but he still didn't give up and asked, "Old man, is there still an old man surnamed Zhao in this town?"

The old man stroked his white beard and thought about it seriously.

"Our town is dominated by the surname Zhu, and the surname is Zhao...... He should be the only one. ”

"Thank you, old man!" Shen Linfeng saluted, but his heart was cold.

The surname is Zhao, and he is also a helper in the pharmacy. These two points alone are so similar to the person Shen Linfeng and they are looking for.

"Is it Uncle Zhao we are looking for?" Gan Ling'er was obviously worried about the same thing as Shen Linfeng.

"Hey, get out of the way!" the soldiers pushed away from the crowd. On the stretcher behind him lay a corpse quietly, blood stained red with white cloth, looking very terrifying.

After the soldiers left, the roads naturally became clear. Shen Linfeng and Gan Ling'er walked forward with the crowd.

"Yo, look, look, look at the bloodstains on the wall......!" the townspeople pointed to a wooden door, which was stained with blood, and two official seals were firmly attached to the door.

"What are we going to do?" asked Gan Ling'er.

"Don't worry, you and I will find a place to stay first, and I'll go in and check it out myself in the evening." ”

The two left one after the other.

There is only one inn in the town, and it should be some years old looking at its architectural appearance. Shen Linfeng and Gan Ling'er walked in, the tables and chairs inside were old, and the light was dim. However, there are quite a few people who eat and drink here.

When such a serious murder occurs in a peaceful town, it is inevitable that people will be panicked. The people who ate in the inn talked about this matter even more.

"To say that this old Zhao is usually very kind, and I haven't heard of offending anyone?"

"That's it, that's it! A good person was killed, and he died so miserably. ”

"Oops!" a man pressed his body very low, and his voice was much quieter.

"Some people are rumored to say that it was the gang of people in Yongyuan Town who killed Lao Zhao!"

"Yongyuan Town? is that Yongyuan Town that was almost slaughtered by the whole town?"

"Yes!

"Don't you dare to talk nonsense without evidence! Beware...... Beware of getting angry!"

A few people looked left and right, and then continued to bury their heads in eating, and no one spoke again. Shen Linfeng seemed to be unintentional, but in fact, he listened to what these people said.

In particular, they mentioned the town of Jonwon......

You must know that the massacre in Yongyuan Town was done by the Demon Sect. If it is really as these people said, then why did the people of the Demon Sect kill this Uncle Zhao?

"Ling'er!"

"Huh?" Gan Linger looked up.

"What?"

"This Uncle Zhao, have you seen it before?"

"No! but...... I've mentioned it to my mother. ”

"Oh, what does he do?"

Gan Linger put down the bamboo chopsticks in her hand, and she wiped her mouth indiscriminately.

"This Uncle Zhao seems to have been his grandfather's helper, and then left Dongling Mountain for some reason. ”

Shen Linfeng was shocked, could it be related to Ling'er's grandfather? The people of the Demon Sect first wanted to kidnap Ling'er, but now they killed Ling'er's grandfather's previous helper.

What exactly are they trying to do?

"Ling'er, if there is no Uncle Zhao, can you and I find your grandfather when we go to Dongling Mountain?"

Gan Linger shook her head.

"I only know that my grandfather lives in Dongling Mountain, but I don't know the exact location. What's the matter, Master, is coming with me?"
