After the fairy disappeared

Chapter 187 Sun Hongye

He Lingchuan lifted up his shirt and took a look, and found that the wounds caught by the werewolf last night were indeed healing, and it didn't hurt much, including the wound on the ribs where the bones were almost visible, and a thick layer of scab formed on the surface.

This was too fast, He Lingchuan turned around and grabbed a handful of pear paste candies and gave it: "With Lingguang here, I can save myself a lot of suffering."

Ling Guang originally wanted to say that serious monster apes don't eat candy, but this pear paste candy is too delicious, the paw that was stretched out to reject it changed to push, and silently took it.

He Chunhua entered the palace in the early morning and has not returned yet.

Next, He Lingchuan washed his face and changed his clothes, and randomly filled a dozen big meat buns with two bowls of peanut soup washed down with eggs. It was considered full, and then he went out.

Deputy Liu stood outside the door, changed into a new outfit, but with two big dark circles under his eyes, he obviously stayed up all night.

As soon as he saw He Lingchuan, he bowed to the end, unable to sit up for a long time.

He Lingchuan wondered: "Why are you so polite all of a sudden?"

"Young Master He saved my life last night, I am so grateful!" At the moment of crisis, He Lingchuan gave him the horse first.Liu Bangban lived to be in his late forties, and he has never been treated like this by a nobleman.Even a servant of a powerful family called him a "assistant", but he didn't even bother to hide his disdainful eyes.

"Since it's a cheap life, it's worthless, so thank you for what you say."

"..."

He Lingchuan chuckled: "Okay, don't be pretentious, and work hard for me."

Before yesterday, Deputy Liu's respect for him was still based on money, but after yesterday, it came from the bottom of his heart.He looked left and right to make sure that the medicine ape did not appear, then lowered his voice and said: "Master He, you just hired Ling Guang as alchemist yesterday morning, and you were almost killed last night! Look, is this ape the culprit?"

He Lingchuan was startled.If Deputy Liu didn't mention it, he forgot about it.

"It will take some time to kill the previous masters." Assistant Liu became more and more frightened as he thought about it. After all, he almost became the victim yesterday.

"Okay, don't be suspicious anymore, don't you hear that it's very happy?" He Lingchuan recalled the look Lingguang looked at him last night and this morning, and he was really worried, "It's just a few wounds, but in exchange for a North Star Tundra Partner Giant Wolf, why do I feel that my luck is pretty good?"

He climbed into the carriage, and said to the sad-faced Assistant Liu: "The ones who attacked us last night are now bereaved dogs. They are about to be chased to nowhere. What are you afraid of?"

He knew in his heart that Dong Rui might not be captured so easily, but one of his puppet masters was lost, the other two were injured, and they were searched all over the city.

After going to Xiazhou, the He family will be even less afraid of him on their own territory.

At this moment, there is still a General Nian Zanli Nian in the north, who is waiting to settle the blood feud of killing his son with him.These past events all happened before Yao Yuan came here, and if it is said that he is the evil star, He Lingchuan himself is probably the biggest evil star.

Deputy Liu thinks about it too, and besides, he is a big fart and a small person, who would specifically trouble him?
"Where are you going now?"

"Take me to the Jinghe Hall at the foot of Bijia Mountain." He Lingchuan leaned back on the soft seat and yawned, "I'm going to visit the wounded."

The carriage rolled out, and He Lingchuan opened the curtains, lamenting once again that the prosperity and vitality of Shihuan was far beyond that of Heishui City.The North Road is crowded with people, and the most important business of Shihuan City is at the North Wharf, where goods traveling from south to north must be loaded and unloaded.

Big Yuan pooled the power of the whole country to support the prosperous capital and companion capital.

But He Lingchuan was heading south in the opposite direction. After turning a few turns, the road became narrower and more uneven.In addition to the few people, the buildings don't look so glamorous, and the scale of the layout is much smaller, starting to get closer and closer.

He Lingchuan thought of his hut in Panlong's dream.

It turns out that the bungalows in the world are almost the same.

Soon, the carriage passed by a wine shop, the facade was not bright, and on the shaky signboard were two capitalized and bold ink characters: Xiang rafters.

Mao Tao seems to have said that yesterday he and his brothers from the supporting army had a drink at this Xiangyu restaurant, and the cheap big bowl was not mixed with water.The pig's head meat served with wine is also plucked clean.

After more than a hundred feet, the road ahead was suddenly congested, and the carriage could barely move.

He Lingchuan probed and found that the crowd surrounded a one-story house with three floors inside and outside, and they were all crowded at the door, chattering.

People are being lifted out of the house, covered with a white cloth.

It was two dead men.

The cloth was not covered tightly, and a gust of wind blew up the corners of the cloth, revealing a woman's face.

About 24, neither fat nor ugly, with a deep cut on his neck.

Cutting the throat is fatal, this knife is very neat.He Lingchuan judged that the murder weapon was a short knife or a dagger, so the murderer was probably standing behind her, covering her mouth with one hand and slashing the knife with the other, so as not to attract the attention of the neighbors.

The door was open, and he took a peek inside.Grass grows on the ground, a lot of debris is piled up in the corner of the room, and the square table is still limping, and half a broken book is used as a cushion.

The family was so poor that the dead were carried away, and the living onlookers could only walk in with a few porcelain plates and bowls with missing corners.

He Lingchuan also noticed that some aunts spit quietly at the base of the wall.

Deputy Liu also came over to have a look, and wondered, "Isn't this Yao Erniang's family? There are only two people in this family, and both of them have been carried out." He clicked his tongue, "I heard that the government's family started searching for them early in the morning. Fugitives, many civilians were injured."

He Lingchuan pointed at the crowd: "Why did I hear someone pointing and saying, 'Sure enough, something will happen to these two sooner or later'?"

"That's because of his family's business. Yao Erniang's man went to the front to fight, and when he came back, he broke a hand and his temperament changed. He was neither literate nor able to work hard. After losing all the pension money, he was let The wife is in the skin and meat business, and the place of business is in her own home."

He Lingchuan understood: "So it's a secret business."

"They do this, and they are reluctant to hand over money, which will always offend people. Yao Erniang's husband often argues with customers, and the neighbors have heard it many times."

After hearing this, He Lingchuan didn't say anything, it was none of his business.

It's none of anyone's business.

Two insignificant common people, two low lives comparable to wild dogs, even if they die suddenly and unexpectedly, it will not cause much splash. After seven or eight days, others will forget about it completely.

……

Since the monarch did not come to Luming Garden to hunt, there have been more and more houses and markets at the foot of Bijia Mountain.

When there were too many people, the medical center and pharmacy followed suit.

Jinghetang is a chain medical hall opened by Fu's family. Although the one at the foot of Beacon Hill is a branch, there are famous doctors in the front hall for consultation this month, so there is an endless stream of patients.

The back hall is divided into pharmacy and ward.Severely ill and seriously injured patients can rest here, which is convenient for doctors to treat nearby.

Deputy Liu asked the two people back and forth, and then led He Lingchuan to find the target——

The street boy who was sent here by Ke Jihai's men last night.

This person has woken up, Yintang is no longer dark, his face is even paler, and he looks exhausted.

He was sitting on the bed, wrapped in a quilt, having breakfast.

A can of thin and thin millet porridge, a small plate of pickled melon rinds, and half a pancake.

The pancakes should be very hard, and the boy didn't move after taking two bites.

The ward is very large and there are many patients, but there is only a brazier in the corner, which obviously lacks heat.

He also recognized He Lingchuan, put down the pancakes, and without making any gestures, he just cupped his fists and said, "Young Master He!"

"You just eat. How's your injury?" He Lingchuan thought that this person is also interesting, others respect him as the youngest, only the young man calls him "Master".

The boy picked up the jar, slurped his porridge and said, "The doctor said I couldn't die."

"My mother is grateful for your kindness and asked me to visit." He Lingchuan took out a sandalwood box and opened it in front of him. "A small gift is not a thank you."

In the box were neatly placed two lychee-sized night pearls, which were very round and upright; there were also two high-quality suet white biscuits, which looked like fat meat, white and greasy.

The things Mrs. Ying used to repay her life-saving grace are not so shabby.These four treasures can be sold for at least 200 taels of silver.

Even in Shihuan City, this amount of money is enough for a family of four to live comfortably for several years.

"Sun is ashamed to accept such a small effort." The young man didn't expect the He family's thank you to be so expensive, so he couldn't hide his surprise for a moment, "How is Mrs. Ying?"

"She... was a little frightened and is still recuperating today."

"I don't know how it ended last night?"

The boy was hit by a poisoned arrow last night and passed out early, so he didn't see the end of the play.

At this time, Deputy Liu stepped forward, put the whole basket of fruit on the table, and lifted the lid.Then he left the clinic and went to do other things that He Lingchuan told him.

In the basket are two big packs of strawberries and one pack of red dates.

In the cold winter season, fruit is more expensive than meat.

"Last night, it was a bit complicated." He Lingchuan stroked his chin. "In short, both the werewolf and the ghost ape were subdued, but the ghost ape was later rescued by its owner. We haven't found it yet."

"Are there any casualties?"

"The injuries are all on me and General Ke. There was a coachman who was shot in the left eye and there was no cure when he was sent here. You are luckier than him." He Lingchuan said, "My father has already sent a generous pension to his family. .”

As expected, the young man let out a long sigh.He Lingchuan saw that his expression was somewhat melancholy.

Next, the young man reported his family name as grandson and his name was Hongye. He used to be the companion of the third son of the He family in Fangtai. He left the He family a few months ago and now works as a bookkeeper in a rice shop.

"Fangtai He's family?" Why does it sound familiar?
"It's at the home of He Liwen, the royal censor. You met the second son of the He family yesterday."

"Oh!" He Lingchuan remembered, "He Su?"

Sun Hongye nodded.

"Then why did you go to Luming Garden to find General Ke?"

"I..." The young man pursed his lips into a line, his face was a little embarrassed, he hesitated for a while, "I recommend myself to General Ke."

He Lingchuan became even more curious: "What position are you looking for?"

"Staff, military adviser!" Now that he had said it, Sun Hongye simply let it go, "Rather than waiting to be slaughtered in Shihuan, it is better to build a career with the Lord of Ying!"
