As soon as they went up to the second floor, Song Wuya and the others immediately heard a burst of chaotic sounds.
"Second brother, what's going on?" Song Wuya frowned and asked immediately.
Obviously this is what the waiter in the shop just said, and the shopkeeper was very helpless about it, but he didn't expect it to be here.
When the waiter in the shop heard Song Wuya's question, his expression turned ugly.
Seeing that he didn't speak, Bai Zhuo immediately said: "Little brother, how can this be done? It's so noisy, how can we rest?"
It seems that the waiter in the shop is most afraid of being asked about this matter, and he opened his mouth to say something, but hesitated and hawed not knowing what to say.At this moment, Bai Zhuo looked at him, and his face didn't look good.
"Brother Wu Ya, look at the situation, let's change to another inn! Such noise will definitely affect our rest." Bai Zhuo frowned tightly, showing a completely unnegotiable look.
The waiter in the shop was flustered at this moment, and immediately explained: "Young master, don't want it! Recently, the business of our inn has not been very good, and it is hard for you to come here. If we leave again, what will happen to us this month? life!"
Seeing his distressed appearance, Bai Zhuo's face showed an expression of intolerance again.
"Then what do you think? We can't spend money to suffer, right?" Bai Zhuo's tone softened.
The shop clerk looked bitter, and explained to the people: "Young masters, don't worry, he won't be so noisy tonight, and he has to sleep. This is also a poor man, and we really don't have the heart to drive him out. , who knew it would affect our voice, you said we... hey!"
The waiter sighed unceasingly, obviously this matter made him very embarrassed and confused.
"What's going on? Could it be that this person is also a business traveler from outside?" Song Wuya felt that something was a little strange and asked immediately.
Not long after entering the city, he encountered such two strange things one after another, which really made him suspicious.
"Yes! Who said it wasn't? It was fine when he came here, and he was accompanied by his companions, but in a blink of an eye, he was left alone the next day." When the waiter talked about this matter, it seemed that he had a moment It's day. "I think this person's companion must be strangers to him, otherwise why didn't he leave him even a penny before leaving?"
"It looks like he was motivated by money, but this man has a conscience. He threw this crazy guy in the inn, not in the wilderness." Song Wuya said with a wry smile, helplessly.
In a room inside, a crazy foreign business traveler is being locked up. This person has lost his mind and may go crazy at any time, which is why there is such a movement.
Hearing this movement, Song Wuya continued to ask: "Then did he wake up?"
"When you're awake? I don't think so." The waiter pondered for a while, but he still said no.However, suddenly he changed the subject: "But when he was not making a fuss, he kept chanting words like monsters and devils in his mouth, as if he saw that monster that hurt people."
When the shop waiter said this, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo became energetic at the same time.They came here because of this monster, and now there is a person in this inn who has encountered that monster, so maybe they can get something from this crazy person.
"Well, based on your kindness, we will stay here. Take us to the room." Song Wuya decided to live here after hearing what the waiter said.
When the waiter heard Song Wuya said that he wanted to live here, the smile on his face bloomed like a flower, which showed how happy he was.
The shop waiter greeted a few people to a place far away from that person's room, which could be considered to be able to avoid some messy voices.
Fortunately, after they entered the room, the man didn't move, it seemed that he had stopped.
Staying in the room, Bai Zhuo immediately called the waiter to bring some things, and told him to light the stove.
After the food was delivered, the room became much warmer. The four of them sat together and chatted about monsters while eating.
"Brother Wu Ya, this monster looks quite powerful, we need to find out more about it." Bai Zhuo obviously had his own ideas, otherwise he wouldn't have talked to Song Wuya like this. "Do you think it's better for us to inquire first? Or should we go to see the Zhizhou master first?"
For this, it is indeed something to consider.However, after much deliberation, Song Wuya still felt that there was no need to be devious. After all, the Zhizhou had the most information about this case, and he could get more information from him.
"I think it's better to go to see the magistrate directly, so as not to delay solving the case." Song Wuya thought about it and still felt that it should not be a waste of time.
But after he said this, Situ Wen immediately stopped her chopsticks and said: "Wu Ya, the purpose of this trip is not just to solve the case. Maybe we should not expose it for the time being, and investigate secretly."
"Huh? Is that so? Do you think it's necessary?" Song Wuya didn't know why Situ Wen suddenly mentioned this matter, as if he had other intentions.
"You didn't think about it, the identities of the two of you have been exposed. Then Qin Ke already knew your identities, but he didn't call the name. He happened to know the case of the monster and sent you away from him. At first, it can be regarded as reassuring for him. But he is still worried, so he recommended you to this prefect. The purpose is probably to control our whereabouts and avoid troubles." Situ Wen said From her own considerations, it turned out that she suspected that Qin Ke already knew the identities of Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo, and the purpose was to keep Bai Zhuo and Song Wuya in the open.
Song Wuya also doubted this point, but he didn't feel that Qin Ke really knew their whereabouts, otherwise Qin Ke might not have invited them to dinner in such a grand place in the end.
"Miss Situ, what you said is too exaggerated, isn't it? If Qin Ke knew our identities, why did he invite us to eat at such a place before he left? Just a table of dishes would require almost A place with hundreds of shadows?" Bai Zhuo also felt that Qin Ke would not be able to grasp their identities so easily, but he still agreed with Situ Wen's words. "However, it's right to investigate secretly. We can't just focus on solving the case and ignore other things."
"Do you still remember the letter that Qin Ke handed to you before leaving?" Situ Wen nodded and said: "It was sealed with lacquer!"
Speaking of the lacquer seal, it reminded Song Wuya that the letter was indeed sealed with lacquer. From this point of view, it seemed that Song Wuya and the others were afraid of peeking at the contents.
Even so, Qin Ke couldn't guarantee that Song Wuya and the others would not be able to see the contents of the letter. As for the contents of the letter, there might really be some secrets.
Of course, Song Wuya would never open other people's letters casually to peek, even if he knew that there would be other secrets in the letter.
"Wen'er is right. If he really knows our identities, it is not impossible for him to send another letter to Han Zhizhou after us." Song Wuya finally did not continue to insist on his own The initial point of view, "Then let's not look for this Hanjin Zhizhou for the time being, let's investigate secretly first and then talk about it."
"That's right! This Qin Ke doesn't seem to be suspected of corruption, but there is no guarantee that this Han Jin is not a person with dirty hands and feet." Bai Zhuo also said something.
After confirming the next plan, several people were able to eat their meals in peace.After obtaining this official position, their main purpose is to investigate and deal with the corrupt officials in the world on behalf of the emperor, so Song Wuya cannot leave this point behind.
Chapter 422 Little Village Law
? Chapter 422
The next morning, the four of them got up early.Song Wuya really wanted to see where the group of people went yesterday. Since the things they used to worship the mountain god had been overturned, he didn't know what to do next.
"Brother Wu Ya, you said this village is at the foot of the mountain where the monsters haunt?"
After breakfast, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo headed out of the city, while Situ Wen and Xiaohuan were in charge of inquiring about the monster inside the city.
Song Wuya nodded. He shouldn't have guessed wrong on this point. If it had nothing to do with that monster, why did these people go to such lengths to pay homage to the mountain god?After all, the things pulled by the bullock cart yesterday were very valuable, including the cow, I am afraid that the years of hard work of several families will not be exchanged for it.
"That's for sure. If the incident didn't happen near their village, why would they fear the mountain god so much? I really want to see what these Taoist priests want to do and what the food is used for." Song Wuya There was a little expectation on the calm face.
After leaving the city gate smoothly, the two went straight to the west of the city.
Immediately after leaving the city gate, you can see a big mountain in the distance.Qin Ke once told them that Liangjiang County is where the two rivers converge and where the three mountains watch over.The big mountain in front of him was exactly one of the big mountains that Liangjiang County could see.The place where the accident happened was the land road from Liangjiang County to Nankai City, so it must be this mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, there was smoke from the kitchen, which showed that the farmers were busy with breakfast, and after breakfast they were going to work in the field again.
In less than half an hour, the two of them stepped on the muddy road and came to the village.
"Brother Wu Ya, what kind of sound do you hear?" Bai Zhuo's ears were really good. He had just entered the village, and when he pricked up his ears, he heard a strange sound.
Being reminded by him, Song Wuya also heard it.The voice was incomprehensible, as if someone was chanting scriptures.
"Come on, let's go and have a look." The voice reminded Song Wuya of those Taoist priests.
Following the sound, as expected, they were in the middle of the village. The two saw a crowd gathering, and a few Taoist priests in the middle were tossing around.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Song Wuya casually patted a man in front of him and asked him.
Although it is said that it is knowingly asking, it is still necessary to open the topic with this.
The man looked back at Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo, and immediately frowned.
"Outlanders! Who let you in!"
