Chapter 921 speculation
Being tossed about by Xiaohuan, the four of them felt awkward sitting together.Seeing this, Situ Wen immediately pulled Xiaohuan back into the room in order to ease the situation.
Only Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo were left in the room, but it became even more embarrassing.
After a long, long silence, Bai Zhuo looked at Song Wuya several times, hesitant to speak, which made Song Wuya anxious.
"Brother Bai, if you have something to say, just say it, why are you so coy? Look at Xiaohuan, if you want to say something, then say it."
"Brother Wu Ya, I'm just too embarrassed to speak. After all, we were just called fools by Xiao Huan. I'm worried that you will get angry when I say this."
Bai Zhuo looked distressed, he really had something to say to Song Wuya, and he didn't know what he wanted to say, so he looked so embarrassed.
"Brother Bai, just say something, are you still afraid that I will turn against you?" Song Wuya said angrily.
This Bai Zhuo was so interesting that he was worried that Song Wuya would be angry if he said this.
Seeing what Song Wuya said, Bai Zhuo dispelled his worries.
"Then I'll just say it." As he spoke, Bai Zhuo looked at Song Wuya's face, and after seeing nothing unusual, he continued, "Do you think that Niu Banxian really lied to us? After all, he said This Liu Wensheng is well-known, but few people have seen him. Thinking about it now, there is really something wrong with this statement."
"Oh? Brother Bai, what do you think is wrong with these words?" Song Wuya was extremely helpless when he heard that Bai Zhuo was talking about this problem. He thought that Bai Zhuo was going to say something serious.
Since Bai Zhuo said that, he must have his own considerations in his heart.
"Who is this Liu Wensheng, we don't know. But the Niu Banxian said that Liu Wensheng is famous outside, so we can ask us to inquire. But if we really inquire, who should we ask? Ordinary people will naturally If we don't know this person, isn't the person we can find is someone from the Chu family? But if we go directly to the Chu family to inquire, if we are put together by the Niu Banxian, we may get into trouble. Thinking about it now, even though Niu Banxian said that Liu Wensheng is famous, we have absolutely no way to inquire about it!"
After Bai Zhuo expressed his thoughts, Song Wuya also thought about it.
"Brother Bai, what you said is not unreasonable. It seems that we have to keep an eye on this Niu Banxian first. If he really lied to us, we can tell by his performance." Song Wuya nodded and said.
After saying this, Song Wuya immediately called the guards and assigned them tasks.
After the imperial guard left with what Song Wuya had explained, Bai Zhuo immediately followed up on what Song Wuya had just said, and said something.
"Then what can Niu Banxian do? He doesn't know our identities, he just treats us as stunned young people. He really lied to us about this matter, I'm afraid he won't be afraid of us when the time comes. After all, the two of us are from other places, so there is nothing for him to worry about as a local. At most, he is avoiding the limelight, and after a while, he will definitely feel at ease again."
I don't know if it was influenced by Xiaohuan's words, Bai Zhuo, who originally thought there was nothing wrong with this matter, became uneasy at this time, and always felt that this Niu Banxian had lied to them.
But thinking about it the other way around is also true, after all, what Niu Banxian said is completely groundless.
Song Wuya didn't rush to say anything, but began to ponder seriously.
Now, it is only two days before the birthday of the old lady of the Chu family. After tonight, counting tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, there is no time at all.
Whether what Niu Banxian said is true or not is very important.If true, that's their chance.But if it is false, then they will rush to Chu's house, I am afraid that they will send themselves to a dead end.
"Brother Bai, I think we should speculate on the purpose of this Niu Banxian." After thinking for a long time, Song Wuya proposed to Bai Zhuo. "The purpose of this Niu Banxian is money, and he naturally doesn't want to cause trouble. Although we are from other places, he doesn't want us to cause trouble for him."
"Brother Wu Ya, if this Niu Banxian points us to a dead end, then he doesn't have to worry about us finding trouble with him!" Bai Zhuo said immediately after hearing Song Wuya's words.
Hearing Bai Zhuo's words, Song Wuya immediately didn't know what to say.
It has to be said that this situation is still possible.After all, as the saying goes, knowing people and faces but not heart, who knows what this Niu Banxian is thinking in his heart.
For a while, the conversation between the two fell into a predicament, and neither of them could continue talking.
Just when the two of them didn't know what to say, there was a knock on the door suddenly.
Boom boom boom!
There was a knock on the door, and the two who were thinking about something were startled by the sudden knock on the door.
"Who?"
"It's me! Young Master Song."
As soon as the person outside the door answered, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo recognized that this person's voice was very familiar, and it was the leader of the guards who followed them.
"come in."
The door was pushed open, and the chief guard entered the room.
"Any news?"
Song Wuya didn't even need to think about the sudden arrival of the leader of the imperial guards, it naturally brought them news.
"Yes, my lord." Sure enough, as Song Wuya expected, the leader of the imperial guards nodded and said, "We have sneaked out of the city secretly and obtained clues from the victims. They are sure that the plague has happened, but it is not us. Not only that, but the plague has spread very seriously, the price of local medicines has skyrocketed, and there are many people in the town who cannot see a doctor because they cannot buy expensive herbal medicines."
Sure enough, Song Wuya guessed what the head of the imperial guards was going to say, which is really bad news.
"In this way, the matter of the plague is confirmed?" Song Wuya frowned and confirmed.
The head of the imperial guard nodded heavily: "It should be true, the last general has sent people to the east and south, and there must be news soon."
"Brother Wuya, it looks like this is a conspiracy!" Bai Zhuo turned pale with shock. The plague is not like other natural disasters. Once it spreads, if there is no effective treatment, there will be countless deaths and injuries!
Although this news has not been [-]% confirmed, according to various signs, its authenticity has been confirmed.The spread of the plague affected tens of thousands of people, and among these people, if they went bankrupt and couldn't come up with the money to save people, then they would only die.
It's no wonder that so many people gathered outside the city of Huai'an Mansion.
"In the past few days, are there signs of an increase in the number of disaster victims outside the city?" Although Song Wuya felt extremely heavy after hearing the news, he still needed to rationally understand more valuable clues at this time.
The leader of the guards nodded: "It's more than twice as much as the day we came."
Since such a disaster has occurred, there must be a large number of victims.The victims had no way out, so they naturally went to Huai'an, the largest city nearby.After all, they still thought in their hearts that as long as the imperial court knew about this matter, they would definitely allocate funds for disaster relief, and the one who could get this benefit at the first time would naturally be Huai'an City, the provincial capital.
"Brother Wu Ya, since so many victims have gathered, why don't you see that the prefect of Huai'an has done something? Could it be that he doesn't know what's going on outside the city, or is completely blind, so he just pretends he didn't see it?" Bai Zhuo said angrily.
What he can't see the most is that the people are suffering from disasters, but the government doesn't act.
Song Wuya didn't know how to answer this question, so he frowned and said, "Brother Bai, since this is the site of Guanshan Restaurant, and this plague may be directly related to Guanshan Restaurant, then do you think the magistrate What else can I do? Naturally, I just watch quietly, waiting for things to continue to expand."
"Damn it!" Bai Zhuo slammed his fist on the table angrily.
The leader of the imperial guard looked at the two of them, and slowly backed away: "My lords, the last general will step back."
The leader of the imperial guards left the room and closed the door. Bai Zhuo, who was full of anger, immediately asked Song Wuya impatiently: "Brother Wuya, what do you think we should do now? Do you want to reveal your identity and send us to Song Wuya directly?" This magistrate won, and then ask clearly?"
Bai Zhuo is too easy to be affected by such things. Song Wuya has said it once before, but now he still can't help the anger in his heart.
"Brother Bai, the time is not yet ripe. Even if we take down the prefect, it will be useless. After all, we don't have the slightest evidence in our hands. At that time, the prefect can completely shirk and push all these responsibilities away." Clean. Right now we don’t have much ability to rescue these people, so we can only wait and see what happens.”
It has to be said that regarding this matter, Song Wuya is only helpless, he has no way to solve this matter, and rescue those affected people from the sea of suffering.
"It's so exasperating!" Bai Zhuo still couldn't release the anger in his heart, and slammed the table fiercely: "Brother Wu Ya, do you think they are still human? For their own benefit, they don't treat other people as human at all. Many innocent people have been ruined by their hands, and they have become lonely ghosts. Their deaths are too unjust, and these should not be the disasters they have to bear. But they cannot be avoided. Do you think they are Humans are still beasts!"
Knowing that there was nothing he could do at the moment, Bai Zhuo could only use these words to vent his anger.
