146. Strange People and Strange Peach Blossom Town

Li Rou smiled and said to the young woman in yellow: "From the outside, this room is obviously just a small storefront, and there are so few people on the street, so how could there be so many people in and out of this room? The room behind it doesn't seem to be able to accommodate so many people. Since there are many people in and out of this room, and the inner room is obviously not big, isn't it strange?"

The young woman in yellow immediately restrained her smile and looked at Li Rou vigilantly: "How do you know that there are many people coming in and out? How did you see that?"

Li Rou looked at the young woman in yellow as if nothing had happened: "The ground is blue bricks, and people's footprints are cleaned, but they are not washed with water. Maybe you are afraid that the moisture will seep into the ground. Maybe there is not only a ground dragon under the blue brick, but also a layer below it. But you forgot that after the blue bricks are swept, you can remove the floating ash, but the people coming in outside have snow on their shoes. When the snow melts the water, it will leave a mark on the ground. This mark can be seen obliquely when the sun shines in."

The young woman in yellow was stunned and squatted down to take a look. Sure enough, she saw many footprints: "Yes, you observed it very carefully. I was negligent. Girl, it turns out that you are smart, kid, it seems that not only you are smart, but the women around you are not stupid either."

Yao Guangqi suddenly admired Li Rou. At this moment, he felt that it might not be a bad thing to let Li Rou follow him, and maybe this smart woman could really help him. "I received a note, reminding me that the case is solved and I can receive a bounty." Yao Guangqi said with a smile.

The young woman in yellow stood up and said, "The note was sent by our people. Since you remembered it, I have to remind you that there are two additional conditions for receiving a bounty."

Yao Guangqi naturally sat in front of the young woman in yellow: "I remember, but I am more concerned about another thing. If I said correctly, the 200,000 yuan bounty was offered by two groups of different people, but the two people who gave the bounty were no longer alive. How do you fulfill your bounty? Do you pay for it yourself?"

The young woman in yellow sneered: "There are a few waves of people who gave the bounty? We have rules and we must not disclose it. You guess who is your ability, but I will not say a word. As for where the money you care about comes from, you don't have to worry about it. Even if we go steal and rob, we will definitely fulfill our promise."

Yao Guangqi said: "Okay, let's talk about your additional conditions now. I remember what you were talking about is the son of Zhang Shicheng. Do you have any clues yet?"

The young woman in yellow smiled and said, "The child was born without hair, but now there is something to be sure. The little prince's biological mother's surname is Yao." At this point, the young woman suddenly asked Yao Guangqi: "By the way, Lord Lingtang's noble surname?"

Yao Guangqi was stunned: "My mother's surname is Yao."

The young woman in yellow smiled and kept laughing: "So, do you meet both clues? If you really can't find the prince, just come back and say you are. We have found it and you will also give you money."

Yao Guangqi didn't find it funny and said coldly: "Take the letter, it's not easy for that person to find. I'll find a way to send this letter."

The young woman in yellow smiled meaningfully, took out a letter from her arms and handed it to Yao Guangqi: "Yes, the letter is too easy for you. Let the King of Yan arrange any official and send it to him."

Yao Guangqi felt nervous: the other party actually knew his relationship with King Yan. The people in Taohua Town are indeed very capable, so it is possible that other things can be helped by him. "I want to ask about Lei Xianzong, do you have to pay for it?"

The young woman in yellow stared at Yao Guangqi's eyes and laughed out loud, then patted Yao Guangqi on the shoulder, and then readily rejected Yao Guangqi: "The rules of Taohua Town only help people with their affairs, pay bounties and receive commissions, and do not ask for information."

Yao Guangqi didn't say anything, Li Rou suddenly interrupted: "I suddenly feel that you are a bit like a person."

The young woman in yellow turned to look at Li Rou: "Who do you look like?"

Li Rou deliberately made her voice very long: "An old friend named Jin Ruyi."

The young woman in yellow suddenly froze, and he began to look at Li Rou carefully: "Although I don't know the lady's name, Gao's name, but Jin Ruyi you mentioned, is now dead in Peking? Why do you say that I look like her? Where do you look like her?"

Li Rou spoke very lightly, a bit like talking to herself: "If you can't say it well, it just feels like it."

The young woman in yellow suddenly smiled, but her smile seemed a little stiff: "I admire you a little. Your eyesight and feeling are so great. That's my junior sister."

Yao Guangqi suddenly realized: "Then are you also the apprentice of the Golden Boy and Jade Girl?"

The young woman in yellow said indifferently: "Don't worry, I won't seek revenge on you. My junior sister and I don't have a deep relationship. I am not from Lei Xianzong. I don't want to work together. The reward I issued before was just a normal business."

"So you admit that there was a reward she gave?" Yao Guangqi said with a smile.

The young woman in yellow knew that she had left her mouth and stopped talking.

After leaving Taohua Town, Yao Guangqi looked at a lonely horse at the entrance of the town and said, "Our carriage is gone."

Li Rou looked at Taohua Town: "I sent him away and asked him to go back and get in touch with Sister Linglong."

Yao Guangqi sighed and said, "The coachman is gone, what should we do? We only have one horse that can't walk fast, so we have to find a town to buy a horse."

"Don't you find it strange?" Li Rou said suddenly.

"What's strange?" Yao Guangqi asked.

Li Rou narrowed her eyes and said, "I forgot so quickly. That room, I said, there are many people coming and going, and there is obviously a large dark room underground. Don't you find it strange? Moreover, I always think that woman is very strange, not only like Jin Ruyi, but also feels indescribable."

Although Yao Guangqi also felt the same way, he comforted Li Ju and said: "It is normal for people in the Jianghu to have secrets in their business. Otherwise, how can I eat this bowl of rice? Forget it, I'd better find a town to buy horses first."

"What horse to buy?" Li Rou asked with her eyes wide open.

Yao Guangqi was amused and laughed: "There are only one horses for two people. When will we arrive in Jiangnan? It's going to be the New Year, so we can't celebrate the New Year on the road."

Li Rou blinked: "Why can't two people ride a horse? I'm so thin. You hold me, or I hold you behind you. Will this horse not move us?"

Yao Guangqi's face turned red: "Forget it, you can ride a horse, I'll walk."

Li Rou smiled proudly: "You are casual, just don't bother you. I can't walk anyway." When I came to the horse, I turned around and said to Yao Guangqi, "Why are you still standing stupid? Come here!"

"What are you doing?" Yao Guangqi was a little at a loss.

"Hold me on the horse, I can't get on myself." Li Rou said gently.

Hangzhou.

The more the Spring Festival comes, the more good men and women will burn incense, and the incense of Iron Buddha Temple will be

The more prosperous it will be. This year, the weather is good, and the people's harvest is very good. From time to time, people from nearby villages come to burn incense and fulfill their vows and do good deeds. When encountering this situation, monks from all over the Tiefo Temple will definitely come out to the temple, recite scriptures and spread the Dharma, and treat believers with vegetarian food.

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, it happened that a nearby village was in the clan leader. The village head led the village to burn incense. The villagers not only brought a large number of fruits for offering sacrifices to the vows, but also brought 2,000 kilograms of new rice this year as offerings. Master Kongde personally led monks of all sizes to recite scriptures and pray for the villagers.

Halfway through the chanting of the scriptures, a fat monk hurried over to the backyard, lay down in the ear of the presidency Kongde and said a few words. Kongde's face changed and he immediately calmed down. Seeing that the people inside and outside the hall were bowing their heads and reciting scriptures devoutly, he pointed at the monk on the side with his toes. The monk nodded, and Kongde followed the fat monk quietly to turn the Buddha statue and went out from the back door of the hall.

"Can you confirm?" Kong De asked anxiously when he came out.

The fat monk nodded, "I have already found out clearly, and I am sure. But now I am not sure whether it was done by Tiancheng Sect or the detriment of the Tianxia Alliance envoy. There is no conclusive evidence."

Kong De frowned: "It seems that they want to be real. No matter which side does it, the purpose is the same. It's just to drive me away and make a good plan."

The fat monk made a gesture of slashing his hands: "Originally, the water of the well did not violate the river. They should do it first. Should they teach them a lesson?"

Kong De shook his head: "We have eaten the most salt benefits in recent years. I believe they have been jealous of them. Since they dare to attack me at this time, they are obviously prepared for it. There is no need to rush to fight back. Tell the brothers below to be smart, keep it steady, and then take a look. If you attack rashly, you may fall into the trap."

The Bai Pang Monk's Dharma name is the legal name, and the layman's name is Li Chengliu. He is the confidant of Zhang Dingbian, who is a pseudonym of Monk Kongde. Now he is the leader of the Hangzhou branch of the Leixianzong. In recent years, Zhang Dingbian has become older and more and more relied on this person, and he seems to be in a stance to compete with the deputy sect leader.

Li Chengliu changed into people's clothes, left the temple through the back door, and headed straight to the Hangzhou government office. When he arrived at the yamen, Li Chengliu also walked through the back door. When the gatekeeper at the back door saw Li Chengliu, he nodded. Li Chengliu understood and entered the yamen without a word.

Hangzhou magistrate Ma Defa was in the study room. Li Chengliu came to the door of the study room and lay on the window to listen. A woman's moan was faintly heard from inside. Li Chengliu smiled and gently knocked on the window frame, then stood at the door waiting. After a while, the moan inside stopped. After a while, a tall maid hurried out from inside. Seeing Li Chengliu standing at the door, she ran away like a flash.

Li Chengliu entered the study with a smile: "Master Ma, you don't pay attention to your health. Can you bear it if there are so many maids in the mansion?"

Ma Defa picked up the tea and took a sip, then breathed a long sigh of satisfaction: "I have my own way of maintenance. I don't have to worry about it. Is there anything wrong?"

Li Chengliu immediately pulled down his face: "Although you are not directly affiliated with me, I am the helm leader after all, so just sit and talk to me?"

When Ma Defa heard that the visitor was not good, he quickly stood up and said with a smile: "Master, please sit here. Don't be surprised. I was a little tired just now, and my head was confused."

Li Chengliu sneered: "You are trying hard to get your waist and you are being pinched down. Are you also clamped your head? You are so embarrassed to ask me what's wrong with those salt merchants?"
