Voice of the World [Transmigration Book]

Chapter 58 The Capital Incident 4

Su Zhuo waited for the Han sisters as scheduled at the third watch.

It's still such a malnourished face, sallow and lacking in blood, if Su Zhuo hadn't checked their bodies a long time ago, they would have been deceived. It's no wonder that the two little girls who suddenly appeared in the chamber of commerce have never messed with them for many days. people doubt.At the same time, he couldn't help but sigh that these two people are really the ministers of the Zuojun, and they can achieve such a level of disguise in just over a month of study.

It's just two children... No, in their eyes, perhaps they no longer regard themselves as children.

Han Shixi and Han Lianzhi sneaked into Su Zhuo's room, and were immediately taken aback.Because not only Su Zhuo and Qin Huanyan, but also a third man in the house.He was sleeping on the chair, wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers, his face was flushed and smelled of alcohol, and he laughed strangely from time to time.Looking at the widened eyes of the two sisters, Su Zhuo said with a smile: "Don't worry, it's just a drunkard who was robbed from the road. I learned some interesting things from him."

"The granary is empty, and there are only stones and thatch piled in it." Su Zhuo sat on the other side and pondered: "It seems that the fifth prince has already prepared, so the question is, where is such a large amount of grain and grass hidden? Where is it?"

He looked at the two sisters, Han Shixi shook his head and said: "Although we have stayed here for more than a month, there are not many places we can think of. Yuanxi County is not such a prosperous place. If it is a place that can accommodate a large amount of grain...except for the granary There's only the sheriff's office."

Han Lianzhi turned his head and thought: "Moreover, there must be many people moving large quantities of food and grass. In this way, it seems that only the chamber of commerce and the county guard's office are possible. Well, although labor slave camps and building material warehouses are also possible, they want to accommodate them. With so much food to prevent from being spoiled by pests and rats, and it is rainy in summer and moldy, then there is really only the Sheriff's Mansion."

"Good boy, you are so smart." Su Zhuo called the two sisters to his side, and cut two pieces of string from An Yiyin's hair.The strands of hair were automatically looped around the thread condensed by spiritual power, braiding into a black rope.He tied the rope to the hands of the two sisters and told them not to take it off at any time. He turned to Qin Huanyan and said, "Huanyan, what do you think?"

Qin Huanyan said coldly: "Not at the Sheriff's Mansion, but the Sheriff must know something."

The two sisters looked at each other, Han Shixi was at a loss, but his younger sister Han Lianzhi wanted to react: "Has this young master been to the Sheriff's Mansion?"

Su Zhuo nodded.

Han Shixi wondered: "Then...that will be in..."

Han Lianzhi took her sister's hand and looked at Qin Huanyan, who was reticent, and realized: "Mr. Su, is he going to the sheriff's mansion again? But the sheriff of Yuanxi is notoriously timid, even if you can easily Come and go to the treasury, but..."

Su Zhuo said softly: "My good boy, don't worry, the person next to me is a very powerful person. Please tell me what happened to you recently."

Although the two sisters felt uneasy and feared that the person in front of them would disappear just like the mother-in-law who raised them, they could do nothing, they could only tell Su Zhuo what they discovered as much as possible.After talking for about half an hour, the things since the separation from Su Zhuo have basically been introduced in detail. Su Zhuo also has a certain understanding of the situation in Yuanxi County, which is even more complete than the intelligence of the spies.

He noticed a problem in the words of the two sisters, but it was not the granary.

"Some people say that the national teacher is from Yuanxi County?"

"Well, it's an aunt. Everyone says that she has a bad brain, but I think that aunt, although she speaks incoherently sometimes, tells the story in a clear and coherent way, and it doesn't seem like she just imagined it." Han Lianzhi hesitated. After all, this story is only what she heard, maybe it has been adapted by others, so it doesn't count.Compared with his younger sister's caution, Han Shixi didn't have too many worries, and said directly: "The day the national teacher first came, he put on a lot of ostentation, not to mention people from Yuanxi County, even people from the next county. Everyone came to watch quietly, and we went too."

"The national teacher was sitting on the chariot. At that time, a gust of wind blew up the gauze curtain, and the face of the national teacher was exposed all at once. The fairy style is very beautiful." Han Shixi said: "Then the aunt suddenly went crazy Just like standing up from the ground and rushing towards the chariot, shouting 'Villa Master', 'Villa Master', he was pushed to the ground by many officers and soldiers. But the national teacher's heart was not bad, he glanced at the aunt , so I asked someone to drive her away, and specifically said not to hurt her."

Han Lianzhi added: "Later we heard that after the aunt went back, she went around saying that the national teacher was the owner of the villa she served, a great swordsman, the pride of Yuanxi County, and even many knight-errants often came to the village to pay their respects. he."

Su Zhuo asked: "How old is that aunt?"

The two sisters shook their heads: "...about forty or fifty?"

Su Zhuo looked at Qin Huanyan, who shook her head.He turned around and patted the heads of the two sisters, and said warmly: "Okay, thank you for your hard work, go back to sleep. Maybe when you wake up, your mother-in-law will come back."

The two sisters hesitated for a moment, but left obediently.Su Zhuo threw the officials in the house to the street, and when he came back, he saw Qin Huan's pensive face.

"Assuming that what the woman said is true, then the identity of this national teacher from the cultivation world is worthy of scrutiny."

Qin Huanyan doesn't think so: "Cultivators in the cultivation world were once mortals."

"I once followed Shang Yun to observe this new Yanyun National Master quietly. He will not be more than 40 years old at most. He is about the same age as you, and his cultivation level is not high enough to control the bone age. Moreover, cultivators pay attention to Cutting off the common fate, it is very wrong for him to come to Yuanxi County in this special period." Su Zhuo's mind flashed: "I have a guess, he came here to worship the sky, what is the sacrifice? People or heaven? Earlier, some people said that the sacrifice to heaven was outside the city, but at that time, someone witnessed the national teacher appearing in the city. What was the reason for it? Did he really come here for sacrifice, or did he have other plans? He has been in Dongling Kingdom for several years, why did he come to sacrifice to heaven now?"

Qin Huanyan said lightly: "I have thought about it carefully. Although there are many famous swordsmen in Liuzhou, Yuanxi County has none. And I have never heard of any villas here."

"Is it really just a rumor brought about by that woman's nonsense?" Su Zhuo smiled: "I think it is necessary to check. Since you don't know about Huanyan, then we can go and check what happened 30 years ago. Case."

-

It's already four watch days.

The drunkard was sitting on the tallest apricot tree in the courtyard of Chen Junshou's bedroom. This was the most beloved apricot tree of the sheriff's wife, and under the tree was buried the apricot blossom wine she brewed for her husband.Now this tree has been ruined by a drunkard, and not only is this man sitting on the not-so-thick branches, but there are also four or five jars of good wine.Every movement of the drunkard will make the branches of the apricot tree "creak" sound, and from time to time the drunkard will throw the empty wine jar on the ground, making a loud cracking sound.

The sheriff's wife, who couldn't hear the sound, sat up unbearably and twisted the ear of her husband who was sleeping soundly, and pulled him up from the pillow: "Damn! Wake up! Wake up!"

Chen Junshou was forcibly awakened from the dreamland and was about to lose his temper, but when he opened his eyes, he saw the yaksha-like face in the faint candlelight. He was so frightened that he woke up, and quickly apologized: "Ma'am, I can't sleep again." La!"

The magistrate's wife said disgustedly: "When will that drunkard leave! He sleeps soundly during the day and tortures me like this at night! The apricot tree in the yard has already broken a branch! How much more do you want?"

Chen Junshou showed a hesitant expression: "Ma'am, bear it any longer, until... the one who won the Ninth Five-Year Plan will be relieved!"

Listening to her husband's small, nearly panting voice, if she hadn't had sensitive ears, she wouldn't be able to hear it clearly.The magistrate's wife barely suppressed the anger in her heart and said: "He has done nothing but drink every day since he came. Is this alcoholic really up to something?"

Chen Junshou quickly promised: "If it wasn't for this drunkard to save me, my husband would have died outside the city! Don't always despise him, if he leaves, you will have to sleep and eat every night for your husband!"

"You don't need to say, I treat him very well on the face of it." The magistrate's wife sighed: "When will this day be so bad, if you don't stand in line, you will die, if you stand in line, I'm afraid--"

"Shhhhhhhh!" Chen Junshou broke out in a cold sweat: "You don't want to die!"

The sheriff's wife quickly fell silent.

The husband and wife felt anxious for a while, but facing the current situation, they worried about what the common people don't need to worry about, but they said that Wei Wei was powerless and could do nothing but follow the trend.

Chen Junshou patted his legs and sighed, "Go to sleep, what else can I do but resign myself to fate."

The sheriff's wife no longer disliked the sound of the wine jug cracking outside, and nodded.Just lying down, her sensitive ears moved, and she hesitated: "Damn ghost, did you... hear any sound?"

"what?"

The magistrate's wife hesitated and said: "I seemed to hear someone talking just now, but it disappeared when I heard it again."

Chen Junshou was so frightened that he fell off the bed. He climbed to the window tremblingly, pierced the window paper with his saliva, and looked out cautiously, but only saw the slender and slender back of the drunkard in brocade clothes on the tree.

He breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the bed, and explained to the worried wife of the sheriff: "Probably the drunkard was talking to himself, don't scare yourself, go to sleep."

The sheriff's wife thought for a while: "Why don't we let the police or servants guard the door tomorrow."

Chen Junshou smiled bitterly and said: "I narrowly escaped death that day, and I already understood it. If the drunkard couldn't keep it, no matter how many people came, it would be nothing more than death. Go to sleep! Tomorrow I have to check the situation of the Shanhai Palace. I'm going to be busy."

They didn't know that there was a person standing on the branch of the apricot tree opposite the alcoholic who was their last life-saving talisman outside the door. It was only in the dark night that the apricot tree had lush branches and leaves, and the governor of Chen ignored the man in black.

The drunkard raised his head.

Although the man in black on the opposite side is dressed simply, the cloth he uses is the precious cloud brocade. At first glance, there are no patterns on the clothes, but the most skillful embroiderer has embroidered dark patterns that can only be revealed when the light shines; He is paired with priceless suet white jade, and his hair is fixed with a hairpin made of a century-old mahogany heart; he wears black short boots on his feet. The soles of the boots are extremely soft, light and comfortable, making visitors There was no sound when he jumped on the tree. It is said that there are only five pairs of such a pair of shoes every year, three pairs of which will be paid as tribute to the palace, and only the richest man in the world will dare to buy the remaining two pairs.

With such an attire, the visitor should be the head of a wealthy family, or a relative of the royal family who is very powerful and favored—but it is not.

Who would have thought that a person wearing such an outfit was just a beggar waiting to die on the street 14 years ago?

The drunkard threw the wine jar down the tree, making a loud crash.

He laughed and said: "Although there are rumors that the master of the Pavilion of the Human World is seriously ill, and the Ninth Prince is alone and helpless—but seeing Mr. Su's suit, one knows that the rumors are not credible."

The visitor laughed.

His smile is very faint, almost none; his laughter is very soft, but with a clear alienation.

Su Zhuo said: "Young Master Zhong, I almost don't think I will recognize you after another menstrual period."

The two were silent for a while.

It wasn't until Chen Junshou, who heard the noise in the room, returned to the bed, that the moonlight broke through the clouds and illuminated the two people on the tree.

Different from Su Zhuo's neat and delicate clothes, which even showed the domineering pattern of an eagle flying high due to the refraction of the moonlight, the drunkard sitting on the tree trunk had messy hair, his brocade clothes were half dry, and his body was full of alcohol. Fresh Clothes Angry Horse looks extremely handsome.

It was the young leader of Luoshui Sect, Zhong Jinnian.

——Perhaps more correctly, it is the former Young Master of the Demon Sect.
