Chapter 196: Missing
"Young Master, it's here, Hongfu Inn."
Abao pointed to an inn in front and said.
Chen Tang nodded: "You go and do some things first."
"Okay."
Abao has been familiar with these things, and he jogged all the way to the inn first.
Alai was responsible for resettling the carriage and moving the luggage.
Chen Tang took office and became an official in Ningzhou. According to the rules, he could stay in the inn. However, the conditions there were very poor, and when it was crowded, there might not be any place to settle down. Chen Tang thought, so he simply went to the inn to stay in without saving any money.
He had a room in his own room, Su Ling and Ahua, and two followers were responsible for guarding the horses. They lived directly in the carriage, which was quite comfortable.
Along the way, the Rouge Horse's injuries recovered well. Chen Tang secretly kept a secret and observed it carefully. He found that the horse was acting no differently. He seemed to have to accept the owner Chen Tang. When he whipped it, he became more and more enjoyable, and he seemed like he was addicted.
This, as Chen Tang expected, the characteristics of the aura of heaven are by no means a joke, and they have great attraction and benefits to evil spirits and demons. I thought that when I was raising monsters in the capital, I kept the insects obediently.
It is also because of this that Chen Tang is usually very concerned about the confidentiality of breath and is unwilling to show off. Otherwise, it will attract a large wave of evil demons and will be unbearable. The other party regards him as Tang Monk's flesh, which is not a good thing.
The Rouge Horse can return to her heart, which is the best thing. Besides, if Hu Buxi uses the means, he can't get rid of it.
"Young master, the room has been ordered; there are also food, and I'm just asking the kitchen to make it."
Abao came to report.
He was very satisfied with following the young master and eating and drinking all the way. As a servant, it was a blessing to meet a boss like Chen Tang who was not arrogant and not mean. So no matter what he did, he worked very hard and wanted to show off.
The luggage was also moved into the room, but Chen Tang habitually kept it by his side. The sword box and other items were kept inside.
There were two tables for dinner, one table for Chen Tang and Su Ling, and one table for followers.
This is a basic rule, but Chen Tang ordered that most of the food was the same and treated without any difference.
This is quite rare.
There is no good food in the county town. Today I have good luck, with some cured meat, and can see oily fishy food. In addition, dried tofu, vegetables, etc., which are noisy enough to cook and have enough rice.
When leaving Chenjia Village, the car was loaded with a lot of dried meat, dried food and other foods, but it was already eaten. Therefore, every time I arrived at a place, I had to replenish food and water, mainly to prepare for food on the road. After all, the journey was long, and there were always times when I was not in front of the village and the store behind me. At that time, if I didn’t prepare, I would go hungry.
Don’t think that you can hunt casually in the wilderness. Even if you have martial arts, it will often be difficult to use.
If you have martial arts, you also need tools and experience. Otherwise, if the mountains are high and the forests are dense, where do you go to catch animals to eat? I really think that chickens and ducks are walking all over the ground, grabbing one by one?
The inn was a little deserted today, and there were no customers. The shopkeeper was very idle. He sat there, took out a plan, and was thinking about it.
After dinner, Chen Tangchao gave a wink. Abao understood it, so he called the waiter in the hotel and started chatting casually.
The two followers brought this time, Alai is honest and dull, suitable for doing tiring work; while Abao is much smarter, and he is responsible for asking for directions and inquiries.
Chen Tang took Su Ling and settled in the room first.
In the inn and the rooms inside are divided into three levels: upper, middle and lower. Different sizes, different furniture placed, and different hygiene conditions. Anyway, in a word, prices and services are linked to them, and are common in ancient and modern times.
However, the Hongfu Inn is not very good at getting a room, so I just can sleep.
After waiting for a while, Abao came up and began to report the situation: "Young Master, I have asked carefully. Yishan County has really not been peaceful recently. Several scholars have disappeared, so there are rumors of haunted."
Chen Tang raised his eyebrows: The scholar disappeared? This is very consistent with the characteristics of evil spirits. He asked: "Is there a specific process of the incident?"
Abao shook his head: "In many cases, the waiter didn't know much about it, and he was not a witness."
Chen Tang asked again: "A scholar disappeared, the yamen must have been alarmed."
"No? Someone had already reported the case, so the county master sent his constables and yamen runners to patrol and handle the case. However, what was unexpected was that one constable and two yamen runners were missing one after another..."
When Chen Tang heard this, his heart moved: It seems that this evil spirit is at least at the level of a murderous soul, which is the level of the sedan girl who was looking for revenge for Yan Zhihai.
The journey south was full of dust, but they were all quite peaceful and quiet, without wind or waves. After leaving Panzhou, they entered the Jiangnan area. Sure enough, they were prosperous and lively, singing and dancing to peace, as if they were prosperous.
This scene is very different from what I saw and heard in Panzhou and the capital. It was like two worlds. When did Chen Tang think of this, he could not help but think of the famous ancient poem "When will the singing and dancing in the West Lake be done outside the mountain?"
Before the Chinese New Year, the north suffered a snow disaster, and floods in the south also caused disasters, but they only occurred in Yunzhou, Jiangzhou and Ningzhou. They were not affected and affected, and they were still full of flowers.
I just don’t know when the battle between the temples in the capital will sweep into Jiangnan.
When holding a banquet in Panzhou, Chen Tang heard some rumors: Although the new king had already ascended the throne and had a general amnesty for the whole world, his position was not stable. On the contrary, the introduction of some new policies has stimulated many contradictions, which has caused party struggles and undercurrents, and there are signs of intensification.
Chen Tang didn't know what was going on, and he didn't want to go to that muddy water. To be honest, with his current qualifications, he was not qualified to participate. He arranged to be an official in Ningzhou, just like the most.
But Chen Tang was unwilling to live a life of escaping the world, so he had to do something to improve his strength. To be honest, since he rescued Yan Huandan, his life situation has basically remained calm. His identity has become rich, his daily life and food are comfortable, and he is served every day. As long as he is willing, he can be more enjoyable and corrupted...
In the long run, it will really be able to suck the fighting spirit.
The land of gentleness is a hero's tomb, and there is no mistake in saying it.
Therefore, when he moved into Yishan County today and heard about the haunted thing, Chen Tang suddenly became interested. Others were afraid of ghosts, but he was not afraid of them, and he could even say he was willing to accept it.
After reporting the news, Abao went down to arrange and brought hot water to Chen Tang and Su Ling for bathing.
After dealing with many trivial matters, it was already night and it was completely dark outside.
Chen Tang's room was filled with lights, and Su Ling came over as usual to help grind the ink.
This girl is now well-equipped.
Reading in the middle of the night, adding fragrance to the red sleeves, this is still possible.
