What can a super master do?
Meng Qi visited all the nearby villages and towns for thirty miles overnight.
What secret rooms, cellars, can’t hide the gerbil’s intuition.
Of course, Dr. Mo helped a lot-it would be better if there was no horse that was an eye-catcher. They had been busy all night, but the horse slept peacefully all night, and when he woke up, he would feed the ink carp. Bean cakes to eat.
There is grass everywhere, so you can’t eat grass?
Puma is so demanding! The good forage mixed with beans is not cheap. You can buy several sugar cakes in one pile.
Meng Qi maintained an inscrutable expression, coldly staring at the horse with his tail fluttering in his hand, but Meng Guoshi’s frightening gaze is no longer good for the horse.
——Get used to being scared.
If Meng Qi continues to watch, the horse will kick its hooves and seek protection from the ink carp.
“Do you think this looks like a horse?” Meng Qi asked with a sullen face.
Moli finds it interesting, because Meng Qi’s expression at this moment seems to throw this horse over the mountain and over the river.
“It’s smart enough. We were not there last night, and it didn’t run around.” Moli patted the horse’s head, then left to buy some water at the tea stall on the roadside.
Meng Qi thought about this horse running around after eating and drinking enough?
Is there a moisturizing day when I ran elsewhere? Run when you are silly!
Hey, this horse is really not stupid!
Meng Qi tangledly acknowledged the horse’s spirituality.
The caravan they met on the road before stumbled away most of the night and arrived in this small town.
It hadn’t been long since dawn, and the chimneys of the early risers in the town had smoked from the chimneys. Everyone was thirsty and tired, so they decided to rest here.
Meng Qi didn’t inquire about this matter. As soon as he and the doctor entered the town, they saw a few people greet the guys at the inn. The inn didn’t have that much food, so the guys had to find cooks and steamed buns, and ordered Someone sent a batch of fresh vegetables over. They chatted enthusiastically and inadvertently sold the caravan’s news cleanly.
“Yeah, it’s not a coincidence for the two of you. The shop is full.” The guy saw Meng and Qi looking towards this side, and ran to the inn in two steps, and explained with a smile.
“There is only one inn in the town?” Moli also put on the hat.
Last night, he and Meng Qi sneaked into the city for a while. It is estimated that the nearby county town is not peaceful today.
“No, our place is small and can’t accommodate too many people, but…” The man’s voice involuntarily became smaller. From Moli’s behavior, he felt that this person might have a background, so he couldn’t say anything later. Up.
“But what?”
“…Uh, it’s a foot shop.”
Meng Qi saw the man, blurted out, and shivered immediately afterwards.
He is very regretful. The coachman and coolie live in the foot shop. They sleep in the Chase shop, and a room can accommodate more than 20 people.
This kind of place stays wherever you go. It’s all dressed up and sleeps. Snoring and grinding teeth are trivial. There is also an unpleasant smell. Some people wear their shoes and shop all over the room. Everyone in the room probably has to wake up.
“Why don’t you go to the teahouse in town for a break? There is also a place to live nearby.” The guy quickly added in order to make up for the mistake.
Mo Lei is noncommittal, leading the horse into it.
He didn’t understand what the guy meant when he got to the teahouse.
——Next to the teahouse is a two-story building with red lights, and the name Leaning Red Building is hung.
There are often merchants in this town, and the brothel and Chu Pavilion are naturally available.
It is morning, and the door to the red building is half open, and there is only a turtle in a green robe sweeping the shells of melon seeds.
“He was right, it is indeed possible to live here.” Meng Qi teased.
Mo Li gave him a helpless look, and led the horse to the side of the road. Instead of entering the tea house, he chose another road to go to the carts and horses in the town.
Naturally, Meng Qi didn’t think that Moli was going to sell the horse. He slowly followed behind, watching the Moli looking for carts and horses to buy grass fodder, and then went to the roadside tea stall to buy water.
As for the special treatment for the person he loves, what Meng Qi enjoys is: more bitter medicine.
Others drink tea, he drinks medicine.
Sneaking into the city last night, Meng Qi took out the gold and silver that the local county magistrate had hidden in the study cubicle, and placed it neatly on the footrest in front of the bed and the low table in the bedroom, and went to the storeroom for a few more laps. , And also arrested two congregants who were suspected of being a holy lotus altar.
As a result, I turned around and found that the ink carp was passing by the well to get water, passing by the medicine shop, leaving money, and taking some herbs.
Meng Qi: “…”
Where is the promised person going into the city to find the holy lotus altar with unpredictable intentions?
He suspects that Moli already has a prescription in his heart, and he came to the city to grab medicine and boil it.
***
Chen County, fifty miles away from the town.
All the money saved with painstaking efforts was taken out and put in the bedroom with a lot of money. Although there were no scary blood and ink books on the walls of the room, the county was helped by the concubine and the maid. Ling still looked pale with horror, touching his neck and slumped on the armchair.
Being able to touch the secret room where the money is hidden without knowing it means that he can also take his head easily. The county magistrate was terrified and ordered a thorough investigation. He was also preparing to dispatch more than 30 government officials to follow the guards in shifts.
Bad news came from the county office warehouse before the people were all called. The people in charge of the warehouse were locked in the warehouse somehow. They wailed for help. Everyone opened the warehouse and saw no one. .
A second time to search, it turns out that the person is locked in a cage.
To be precise, it’s in a box.
There was a hole in the side of the large box that originally contained cloth money and food, exposing the human head. The box is very large, and it is more than enough for a person to hold his hands and feet and curl up and shrink in. There is still room for movement.
It’s just that the box is locked, so he can only roll on the ground with the box in vain.
Rolling a few laps will stop you from rolling, leaving just howling energy.
Everyone found the key and opened the box with hands and feet. After saving people, they found something wrong. What about the original belongings in the box? The man in charge of the storeroom said he didn’t know, and after a while he said with certainty that it was a robber who took the property and locked him inside.
This person is in charge of the treasury, but he is not worth the night. He is a small official in the office. He has relatives with the county magistrate. He is usually domineering.
Xian Cheng felt that something was wrong, and immediately ordered all the boxes to be opened and inspected, and found that there were some rags and broken copper plates inside. He was furious, regardless of the county magistrate’s face, and directly took the little official and threw it into prison.
Don’t care if the stuff inside was sold secretly, or someone made false accounts a long time ago. Now that there’s such a disturbance, people can’t help but talk, and the county prime minister must make an attitude, and everyone is not a fool, is it a robber? The cloth carrying a warehouse ran all night?
Is the cloth easy to carry, or is it easy to hide the gold and silver in the county magistrate’s study? Any fool can make a choice!
Not only the county government had an accident, but several gentry and old homes in the city also made a lot of noise. Outsiders asked about thieves, but they didn’t report to the officials.
The common people only saw the government officials running back and forth. The atmosphere in the city was tense, and the city gates were under martial law.
The land ruffian was arrested and questioned for a while, reminding them whether they had seen a suspicious outsider.
Every day there are foreign merchants coming and going in the city. Since I asked, I felt that everyone was suspicious, so I searched my stomach and talked a lot. The government officials and soldiers also ran for a whole day, but they didn’t find anything.
In the evening, the catcher finally felt other strange things in the city.
“What? You said Master Yin of Xicheng Mongolian Academy is missing?”
This master has a reputation as a talent. At the age of 40, he was originally from Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River. After the fall of the Chu Dynasty, he did not return to his hometown and settled down here in Chen County. Because of his fame, he often associates with the squire, but his family is not considered wealthy and he did not marry.
The news of his disappearance was reported by people from the academy.
The arrest quickly led a group of people in the brook, and ran aggressively.
When I went to the ground, things were indeed unusual. The courtyard where Master Yin lived was empty. Not only the master, but the other old servant was also missing, and the door was open.
When I walked to the main house, I was surprised to find that there was a crack beside the bed in the bedroom, the size of which could accommodate one person in and out.
It turned out that a cellar was dug below, the area is not small, and there are food and weapons.
——This is no small matter! Someone wants to rebel!
The magistrate of Chenxian almost fainted after hearing this.
“…There is a divine case under the cellar, and the memorial tablet is written with the honorable name of the purple star monarch.” Shao Kua wiped a sweat, and said cautiously, “I heard that there are some believers nearby who claim to be the Holy Lotus Altar. Believe in Mr. Ziweixing.”
“Damn it!”
The county magistrate panted, his expression changing under the candlelight.
He gritted his teeth and ordered to continue his search for Master Yin and the possible remaining party in the city, and then he turned to discuss with his staff.
“Tongweng, it may be the conflicts in the party. Master Yin is 80% dead.” The aides rolled his eyes shrewdly and said, “He can kill people, and he can silently roll up the property in the county office. Kong, why don’t you take the penny and just take people away? The old man sees that there must be a big conspiracy in this, Dong Weng must not act rashly.”
The magistrate nodded immediately and said: “Yes, this is by no means a simple case. This official will call all the people back.”
The conspiracy is too great, and he has to find a way to get rid of his crime of oversight.
The county magistrate wandered around the room with his hands behind his back, desperately thinking of a way.
If it can be proved that this incident did not happen under the control of the self, or that the major incident was turned into a trivial matter, only to say that it was a robber, but Master Yin’s house is actually a den of thieves, this case can be settled. As for the chaos in the Holy Lotus Altar, you have to watch it carefully and look for opportunities to report your merits, provided that you pass the current hurdle.
The county magistrate made up his mind and gave orders to his staff.
He didn’t notice a figure flashing by the window.
***
The small town.
The people in the carts and horses praised the horse’s gods in awe, saying that it was five to five points, in fact, they wanted the ink carp to buy a good cowhide saddle.
“It’s too shameful to use it to drive a car. There are as many horses as you need to drive a car, but this kind of horse is rare. Do you want to sell the car or buy another horse to drive you? You are riding this horse. , With a good saddle, don’t mention the air.”
Mo Li has never seen such a stalker and seller.
The small town has a small traffic and few guests. It’s rare to meet one, how can you let it go?
The people in the carts and horses have not been fooled by Moli Meng Qi’s ordinary clothes. They can raise the horses so well. If you feed this fodder, who would believe it if you have no money? Not only rich, but also a bully who doesn’t understand horses!
Mo Li was helpless after trying to understand this.
Meng Qi wanted to smile in his heart, but he didn’t show up on his face.
——The troubled horse, this time the doctor is going to be angry.
“Otherwise, you have to change the car too? Our carriage can hold a lot of goods! We will never pick up a lot of goods halfway. As the saying goes, the old one will not go to the new one, and it is a good sign to change a good car!”
The chariots looked at the deeper rut marks, and suggested eagerly.
From beginning to end, the curtains were not lifted. The dude also took a few peeks, not sure what was in it.
Moli could only pretend not to hear, bought enough fodder to put a rack on the roof of the car, and hurriedly left.
“Doctor, what else do you want to buy? We have to leave as soon as possible.” Meng Qi said to the Moli who got in the car.
“Here you are?”
Mo Lei asked in surprise, the movement of the holy lotus altar is so fast?
Last night they met a lot of people of the Holy Lotus Altar. Except for ordinary people, those with weapons or dubious identities in their homes, they took out a total of four people.
Except for Master Yin, who looks like the boss, everyone else abolished martial arts and left them out of the city.
It is expected that the people of the Holy Lotus Altar will react.
This is called drawing the snake out of the hole.
“It seems that Master Yin has a good status in teaching.” Meng Qi glanced at the carriage and thought disgustingly. Later, he will wash the car again. This is the carriage for him and the doctor.
