Chapter 244 There is a big case in the city

This layup Wangxin couldn't hide it anymore. He jumped down and asked: "How do you know?"

Shui Ling pointed at the tree and then at his clothes, "Do you think I can't see such a grown-up person growing on the tree?"

Really, if you want to go out at night and wear such fancy clothes, you are courting death.

Lan Wangxin frowned, "Then you shouldn't be able to detect my aura."

Shui Ling chuckled, "Are you still an animal master? Don't you know how to sense animals? If you disturb the mice, the birds on the trees, and the leaves will also make sounds."

Seeing that he still looked confused, Shui Ling continued to explain, "A person is used to it in the mountains and fields. He can hear every leaf talking. It is blown by the wind, bumped by people, and disturbed by birds. The sounds are all...

It’s different.”

Lan Wangxin's eyes widened, he didn't know this knowledge at all.

Shui Ling walked back, "It's good to read more if you have nothing to do."

Lan Wangxin feels very sad now that she was actually ridiculed by a little girl.

No wonder my grandfather said that when he chose me to be the national teacher, he said that he was still too young and needed to learn a lot. At that time, he was not convinced, but now... he has to accept it.

He chuckled, went back to sleep, and then dove into the study and read the books in it from cover to cover.

Shui Ling had never seen someone study so crazily, but he didn't bother him. Food and water were prepared, and he felt like he wouldn't even take him out of the house if he didn't need to solve his physical problems.

When Lan Wangxin was about to leave, Shuiling made some dried meat, biscuits and the like for them to take with them.

Wu Meiran, who has been Shui Ling's little tail these days, reluctantly handed a purse to Shui Ling, "Sister Ling, I don't know when I will see you again. If you go to the capital, you must find me."

Shui Ling took the purse and knew that she secretly embroidered it at night, so she praised it without hesitation, "It's so beautiful. Thank you. I'll give you a set of clothes." Then she handed the package over.

In fact, whether you have a purse or not, these clothes will be given away.

Wu Meiran's happy face turned red, tears appeared in her eyes, "Did sister make it by herself?"

"Well... there is a bag inside with ten wax-shell pills. If you have difficulty breathing and the doctor can't find anything, just take one." Hand-selected materials, hand-selected patterns... count.

Make it with your own hands.

"Thank you, sister. I promise you, I will study hard when I get back and become a meaningful little fairy." Wu Meiran said very seriously with firm eyes.

"Okay, I hope the little fairy can call me sister when she grows up." Shui Ling was just joking.

Wu Meiran kept it in her heart, and she swore that no matter who she married in the future or how high her status was, Shuiling would always be her sister.

Shuiling saw the two off, and she curiously opened her purse and took out a silver note worth one hundred thousand taels!

"I won't even mention this kid anymore."

But the leopard was still in the warehouse. After all, he had to take care of the little girl's mood and didn't eat it in front of her.

She walked back happily and saw Lan Mocheng who was full of regret, so she asked: "Where is your food expenses?"

"Ah... yes." Lan Mocheng took out a banknote.

Shui Ling took it and saw that it was another one hundred thousand taels. She said sadly, "What's the use of a banknote? I want money."

These days, bank notes can turn into waste paper if they are said to be waste paper, but silver is still easy to use.

Lan Mocheng knew what she was worried about and immediately said: "Don't worry, this is the banknote of our Lan Family Bank. It will never become waste paper."

"Where's this?" Shui Ling handed it over to Wu Meiran.

Lan Mocheng took one look and said: "This is also a big bank, but it's better to exchange it for silver."

After everyone said this, Shui Ling went to Shui Zheran and handed over the banknote, "Exchange it for silver. It won't be a loss if you exchange 100,000 for 90,000."

"Yeah." Shui Zheran took one look at it and put it in his arms casually.

Lan Mocheng couldn't understand. It was said that country people rarely even had ten taels of silver. Why didn't their family take one hundred thousand taels seriously?

Shui Ling wanted to take care of the leopard, but she saw Wei Chenglin galloping towards him on horseback. Before anyone arrived, his voice came first: "Third brother... eldest niece... help!"

Shui Ling raised his eyebrows, someone was injured?

Wei Chenglin rode his horse up close. He bent down and lifted Shui Ling onto the horse's back, turned around and left.

Shui Zheran got angry, "Please tell me clearly, or I will destroy you."

"Ahem... There's a big case in Fucheng, and we need help from my eldest niece's beast."

Shui Ling jumped down quickly, joking that if he rode from here to Fucheng, his stomach would be upset.

"You go back first. When I find Jinzi, I will ride on Jinzi and take a shortcut to Fucheng. It is faster than a horse."

Wei Chenglin was startled, then raised his hand and slapped his forehead hard, "Then I'll wait for you at the Yamen."

Shui Ling is depressed. Should he train some birds to send messages?

She glanced at the birds on the roof that were stubborn and refused to leave. It's just you.

But you have to do this slowly and don't rush.

She said to Shui Zheran: "Dad, I'll go take a look, you guys are busy with your work."

"Well, be careful." Shui Zheran was not worried that she was in danger, after all, there was space.

Shuiling waited deliberately for a while, figuring that Wei Chenglin was about to arrive in Fucheng, so he used teleportation to go to his home in Fucheng. The remaining cotton in the winter was made into cotton cloth and cotton yarn and stored in the warehouse here, waiting for dye to be dyed here.

She went directly to the Yamen and met Wei Chenglin at the door. He was a little confused. Why did the eldest niece come so fast?

The two entered the back house of the Yamen and saw that Hu Tu's hat was crooked and his eyes were red. How long had it been since he had slept?

When he saw Shui Ling, he pointed at Wei Chenglin with wide eyes, "Why did you bring your eldest niece here? Don't you know that gangster specializes in catching good-looking girls?"

Shui Ling was startled. It was not Hu Tu who came to her, but Wei Chenglin's idea. Hu Tu protected himself and the Shui family better than Wei Chenglin.

Wei Chenglin felt uncomfortable with Shui Ling's eyes and said: "The eldest niece is protected by wild beasts and knows kung fu. Only she can solve the case."

It's not that he doesn't protect Shui Ling, but he is extremely confident in Shui Ling and feels that there is no case that cannot be solved as long as she takes action.

Shui Ling sighed, "What exactly happened to you? Tell me quickly."

Hu Tu sat on the stool dejectedly, "The city is big or small, and several counties around here have lost their children. They are all girls around ten years old."

"Some people were afraid that their children would be lost, so they put the children in the house and asked a group of servants to surround the house. Two people squatted on the roof, but the children still disappeared. Now they all say that ghosts are arresting them. This is the same as what happened more than fifty years ago.

That case is the same."

Shui Ling asked again: "More than fifty years ago? Have those girls been found?"

Hu Tu nodded and said with a sad face: "We found them, but the girls were all drained of blood and hung in a forest. There are 108 children in total!

He stood up and said, "I'm going to get you the file. The case was too big at the time, so every yamen made a copy."

Wei Chenglin, who was standing by the side, was very quick. He swiped to the bookshelf to get a box, and then swooped to Shui Ling's side.
Chapter completed!
