[Comprehensive] There are rabbits in the snow mountain

As soon as he mentioned the mountain rabbit, he became interested, "Oh? How did you know?"

The old beggar sighed, "Because I am from Yinan, after the natural disaster six years ago, I fled north and finally came to Yaocheng."

Shantu looked him up and down, and said suspiciously: "Ximen said that you have sword intent, so you should be quite powerful, no matter what, you won't turn into a beggar, right?"

The old beggar smiled wryly, "It's really difficult." He sat down on the ground, picked up the cold barbecue, took a bite and said, "I can't find any confidential information among the beggars, can you two share with me?" Let me tell you what do you know?"

Shantu raised his head and looked at Ximen Chuuxue: Can this person be trusted?

The old beggar was not angry when he saw their expressions, he smiled kindly and said, "Forget it, let me say it first, the character of Master Ximen is trustworthy."

Shantu nodded proudly, and added at the end: "In fact, my character is also very good."

The old beggar laughed, "Then I can feel more at ease." He thought for a while, "Let's start from the very beginning!"

"It was six years ago when Yinan was hit by a famine. At first everyone was able to cope with it, but gradually the grass roots and bark were eaten up, starvation was everywhere, and people in the city began to starve to death. Everyone took their families with them. Fleeing. Slowly, there are fewer and fewer people, and the whole Yinan seems to have become an empty city."

"At that time, I still had some surplus food at home, and the tomb of my deceased wife was on the back mountain. I didn't want to be too far away from her, so I insisted on not leaving. Later, I found some strange people appeared in the city. They House-to-house searches were carried out every night.”

"When those people searched my house, it happened that I was going up the mountain to worship my dead wife. After returning home, I found that they only took away gold, silver and jewelry, and the food I hid was untouched. I guessed that they were specially for disasters. Rich."

"Later, Yinan was emptied by them..." The old beggar wiped his face with his hand, tremblingly said: "They paid attention to the funeral objects. First, there were big and respectable families in Yinan, and then some ordinary people... "

"When they dug to the back mountain, I raised my knife and tried to fight them, but I was knocked off the cliff with a palm. They probably thought I was dead, and they didn't chase me anymore. I pretended to be a beggar and fled to Yaocheng Come."

After hearing what he said, Shantu thought for a while and asked, "Are there any marks on those people?"

"Yes." The old beggar affirmed: "Those people all have the word 'leaf' embroidered on their bodies. I have been inquiring about this organization over the years, but so far, I have only found out one name."

"Name? What is it?"

"Leafflies. Some people call them leafflies. They crawl around like flies in corners and do some annoying things."

"Leaffly..." Shantu thought for a while and asked, "Then who are you?"

"I'm just a blacksmith, not worth mentioning."

Ximen Chuuxue suddenly said, "Are you Luo Fu?"

The old beggar nodded.

The mountain rabbit asked, "What do you do?"

"It's a knife maker."

Shantu nodded. Although she had never heard of this name, she knew that the swordsmith who could let Ximen Chuuxue know about it must not be an ordinary swordsmith.

The little rabbit greeted warmly: "We are going to Gyeongju, do you drop in? Let's go together?"

"Qingzhou? Why are you going there?" Luo Fu was a little at a loss. He always thought that these two people were going to Yinan, and wanted to go back with him to have a look.

Shantu told him the news he got before, "Do you know the relationship between Gyeongju and them?"

"I've never heard of it." Luo Fu shook his head, "It seems that Qingzhou hasn't had any natural or man-made disasters for decades, right?"

Shantu nodded and asked Ximen Chuuxue, "Ximen, don't those people always pay attention to where natural disasters happen? Are there too many of them?"

Ximen Fuxue shook his head, "The news of the disaster will be passed along with the victims, and they don't need to pay special attention."

The little rabbit thought for a while, "Why don't you check the places that have suffered from natural disasters in recent years, I always feel that there must be more than these two places."

Ximen Chuuxue nodded, and the three of them rested for a while before setting off to Qingzhou.Shantu and Ximen Chuuxue were naturally riding horses, while Luo Fu directly used lightness kung fu, which turned out to be pretty good.

Compared with Yaocheng, Gyeongju can be regarded as a big town, and Wanmei Villa naturally has a business here.Ximen Chuuxue took the two of them to find a shop in Hefangzhai to stay.

The shopkeeper of this shop is surnamed Xu, and he probably recognized Ximen Chuuxue at a glance when he and He Chuan went back to Wanmei Villa before.After the mountain rabbit settled down, he wanted to come out to serve a plate of snacks, but as soon as he went out, he saw shopkeeper Xu sitting in the garden and sighing.

"Hey? What's wrong with you?"

Seeing her, shopkeeper Xu hurriedly saluted, while Shantu waved his hands, and sat down beside him very familiarly, "Why are you so worried? Tell me and I'll help you think about it!" She patted her chest and said, "I can't figure it out. And Simon, don't be afraid!"

Shopkeeper Xu was teased by her, and felt a lot more relaxed, so he said, "Actually, it's not a big deal." He pushed forward a plate of lotus paste cake on the stone table, "Girl, please try it."

Shantu picked up a piece and put it in his mouth, his big eyes narrowed immediately, and he nodded, "Mmm! It's delicious!"

Shopkeeper Xu smiled, and pushed forward a plate of jujube cake cut into small pieces beside him, "Try this again."

The mountain rabbit was so excited that he also picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. As soon as the clinker was in his mouth, he frowned. "Shopkeeper Xu, it's better not to sell this dim sum."

Shopkeeper Xu was taken aback, "Uh...is this snack poisonous?"

Shantu nodded, "Well, there is an addictive poison in this snack, the more you eat it, the more you want to eat it."

Shopkeeper Xu frowned, "No wonder... I said..."

Seeing this, Shantu knocked on the table, "You are not allowed to sell this dim sum, please take it off the shelves quickly, or I will sue Ximen."

Not only was shopkeeper Xu not angry, but he smiled, and he cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your reminder... This dessert is actually not from Hefangzhai, but from Guofuxiangji."

He told the mountain rabbit what had happened recently.Speaking of which, this Fuxiangji is considered Hefangzhai's old opponent in Gyeongju, but he has been suppressed and beaten by Hefangzhai before.

I don’t know what’s going on recently, but the new jujube cake made by Fook Cheung Kee is very popular. Many former employers of Hefangzhai went to buy the jujube cake.

Shopkeeper Xu has been so worried that he couldn't sleep at night these days, so he ordered someone to buy it to see what kind of tricks there is in this jujube cake, but he didn't expect the root cause to be here.

After hearing what he said, Shantu slapped the table with righteous indignation: "It's really shameless! Most of the people who eat dim sum are old people and children, and this can kill people!" She turned to the shopkeeper Xu, "What should I do? ? Do you want to tell everyone that their snacks are poisonous?"

"Hey - no, it's too direct!" Shopkeeper Xu shook his head. He was probably used to welcoming and sending off, with a smile on his face all the time, but now there was a glint of light on his face, "No one will believe you if you tell others directly." Yes, what's more, we are still enemies!"

"so what should I do now?"

Shopkeeper Xu stroked his beard and smiled, "Just wait a few days and see."

The mountain rabbit went back suspiciously.After telling Ximen Chuuxue about the matter, the Sword God said, "Then just wait for a few days."

"Do you know what he will do?"

Ximen Chuuxue shook his head.Seeing that Shantu was still curious, he said, "He Chuan must have some ability to use him as the shopkeeper."

Little Rabbit nodded, which could be regarded as a kind of trustworthiness in employing people.

Shantu didn't expect the result to come so quickly.

About three or four days later, when she and Ximen Chuuxue were walking on the street, they heard that someone in the city had been poisoned by eating Fuxiangji's jujube cake and went mad, and almost killed the whole family with a knife.Everyone went to the doctor to test it, and they found that it was poisonous.

Nowadays, people who have eaten jujube cakes gather around the door of Fuxiangji to ask for an explanation, and even the yamen is surrounded by people.The magistrate was so annoyed that he had people arrest all the people in Fuxiangji, and they are currently investigating.

After listening to Shantu, he said thoughtfully: "Tell them directly that they won't believe it... Only by presenting the results will be convincing, right?"

Ximen Chuuxue nodded slightly.

The mountain rabbit sighed, "Human beings are really scary."

People's hearts, calculating people's hearts, anti-calculating people's hearts...there is no end to it.

Everyone in Gyeongju knew about the Fuxiangji incident. The old customers of Hefangzhai came back again, and shopkeeper Xu was very happy all day long.The case that Shantu and the others wanted to investigate hadn't made any progress. After Luo Fu came back with them, he had food and clothing, but he still pretended to be a beggar every day and went out to inquire about news.

On the contrary, the matter of the craftsmen in Qiongzhou and Yinan that Yin Hui had investigated before Feige passed on the letter had a follow-up.Yin Hui made it very clear in the letter that before Qiongzhou, a large number of craftsmen went north with their families to flee famine, but now they can detect none of the ten, and all of them are of low-level skills.

And they also found out about the famine that happened in Yinan six years ago. Since then, the top craftsmen in Yinan have disappeared.The current craftsmen are very young, and many of them are apprentices of those people.

In short, it seems to be a fact that the organization called Leaffly robbed the artisans.However, Yin Hui also said a piece of news: So far, no large amount of top-notch jewelry has been found, except for the original cave.

Shantu touched his chin after hearing Ximen Chuuxue finish reading, "So these man-made things are for collection?"

Ximen Chuuxue put away the letter paper, shook his head to express that he didn't know.

At this time, a little maid came in with a bowl of steaming soup.

The mountain rabbit stared, turned around and was about to run.However, it was still not as good as Ximen Chuuxue, who had been prepared for a long time, and was grabbed by the back collar.

The little rabbit kicked his legs in vain, "I won't drink it, I won't drink it, I won't drink it!!! The ginger soup is too bad!!!"

Ximen Chuuxue mercilessly took her back and pressed her into his arms, locking her arms tightly.

The little maid put the ginger soup on the table, covered her mouth and ran out, probably looking for a place to laugh.

Some time ago, it was probably too much tossing. The mountain rabbit woke up in the morning with a stuffy nose and a little itchy throat. It happened to the level that if you don’t take medicine, you will definitely get sick, and if you take medicine, you will make a fuss.Therefore, Ximen Chuuxue adopted the shopkeeper Xu's suggestion: Feed the little rabbit a bowl of ginger soup every day.

It was only then that Shantu realized that the most hated thing in the world turned out to be ginger.

The little rabbit stared at the bowl of ginger soup, almost at a loss, "I don't want to drink it! I want to run away from home! If you dare to give me a drink, I will die for you!!!"

Well, it can be said that he would rather die than surrender.
