Chapter 203 Strange Pattern
s
West of the city.
In a very ordinary courtyard, Wu Yongen and the woman stood at the door and greeted the neighbors.
"Miss Su, your official is too considerate. I'm afraid that you can't find a second one in Tongcheng."
This Miss Su is the woman with Wu Yongen.
She flushed on her face as she listened to the praises of her neighbors, and looked like a happy little woman.
Shen Qinglan was inexplicably amazing.
Could it be this woman who made Wu Yongen dare not speak out?
After a few polite words at the door, the two entered the room.
From her location, you can see the scene in the courtyard, which is very ordinary.
But the two of them took the basket directly into the main hall and never came out again.
It was a bit weird if I bought the vegetables and didn’t bring them back to the kitchen in the yard, but I took them into the main house.
Before the others came, Shen Qinglan dared not act rashly, and Liu Yuqi was in another location near the courtyard.
"Yuqi, look at me, I'll come when I go."
"OK."
After the two of them sent a secret message, Shen Qinglan left.
When Shen Qinglan appeared again, she had already changed into another mask and turned into an ordinary-looking man.
She carried the burden of a peddler on the street and was hawking slowly.
A noodle seller quickly attracted the attention of the nearby aunts and came to see what the sell was.
The merchant soldier looked stupid and asked the aunt who was picking up the goods, "Aunt, there is a owner named Su nearby. Do you know which one it is?"
"Submitted to Su?"
The aunts said whisperingly, saying where there is someone with the surname Su.
Some people also pointed to the yard where Wu Yongen entered, "Isn't the Su family's wife the surname Su?"
Someone laughed, "But that family is not surnamed Su."
After saying this person, the others laughed.
Shen Qinglan pretended to be curious and asked, but none of the few people planned to say it.
She had no choice but to take out the bag of malt sugar from the carton and open it, "Aunts, please tell me, my aunt has been away from home for three years, and my family is really anxious."
One of them grabbed a handful of malt sugar and said, "Oh, it's not that I won't tell you, but Miss Su is young, how could it be your aunt? And the man she had been surnamed Cheng and had been dead for more than three years."
Another aunt who caught the candy also said, "Miss Su has moved to us for four or five years, right?"
"No, the man in front of her died the second year he moved in."
"Oh, what's her surname now?"
"I don't know, I'm always a soft-hearted person."
"Hahahaha, oh, it's true."
"A big man has been here for a year. He either goes out to buy vegetables with his wife, or stays at home and doesn't work. He doesn't look like a reader or a businessman."
Others laughed.
From the conversation between these people, Shen Qinglan can tell that Miss Su moved to Tongcheng for five years, and her ex-husband died four years ago. Wu Yongen came only in the past year. Everyone thought that Ms. Su’s son-in-law was Miss Su’s son-in-law.
Someone began to disappear a year ago, and the time he had matched Wu Yongen's, but Miss Su couldn't match it.
"Junior sister, come quickly."
When Shen Qinglan heard the voice transmission, she immediately stuffed the remaining malt candy to the aunts and left in a hurry.
Soon, she turned into a corner, raised her hand and waved her hand, and a coma appeared in the corner where she was originally empty. His outfit looked a bit similar to the peddler's appearance.
Shen Qinglan put the cargo load at the man's hand, stuffed a piece of silver into the man's hand, then took a few steps, and then used a spell to wake the man up, and then he really left.
The peddler woke up and looked confused. When he saw the money in his hand, he was shocked again.
Finally, he hurriedly packed up his burden and left without looking back.
Such a large ingot of silver, I am afraid I will meet the God of Wealth today!
Shen Qinglan returned to Wu Yongen's courtyard, and Zhou Huai and others arrived.
As soon as Nan Qing saw her, she asked, "Who did you see? Yuqi said you met an acquaintance."
"Wu Yongen."
Nan Qing:...
Zhou Huai:...
Shen Qinglan said Wu Yongen's situation in a few words, "He should have seen me first. When I found him, he shook his head at me again, and I didn't say anything.
I didn't know the woman, so I didn't test her background, and I didn't know the level of cultivation."
"Junior Sister Chen means that Wu Yongen has been held hostage?" Jiang Yizhi frowned.
Shen Qinglan nodded and said, "It should be, maybe..."
"Maybe something?"
"Maybe Wu Yongen has a problem. He came too coincidental, almost at the same time as the missing incident."
Shen Qinglan didn't want to use malicious speculation, but the situation is not clear now, so it's best to pass all the possibilities before taking action.
Jiang Yizhi suddenly said, "There is no one in the yard."
"What?"
"Fellow Daoist Liu, have you been staring at this yard?"
Liu Yuqi nodded, "I'm sure I've been staring at me unless they're invisible."
Jiang Yizhi thought for a moment and said, "I'll go and have a look first."
Wu Yongchun reminded, “Senior brother, be careful.”
"kindness."
Soon, everyone received a message from Jiang Yizhi, "They are gone."
Several people immediately went over to meet Jiang Yizhi.
Zhou Huai frowned, "Can it be Wu Yongen? After seeing you, he was worried that he could not escape, so he asked you for help and divert his sight."
Shen Qinglan was also a little uncertain, "Is it really him?"
If this is the case, then Wu Yongen must have run away.
But it really doesn't look like it. Shen Qinglan instinctively felt that Wu Yongen was really asking her for help.
She really saw the despair and hope in the other person's eyes. If it was fake, the ups and downs of this person would be really a bit terrible.
Liu Yuqi shouted in the inner room, "Come and come and see."
When everyone arrived, Liu Yuqi pointed to the set of tables and chairs in the inner room and said, "You see this."
"What's wrong with this table?"
The patterns on the table are quite ordinary and there is nothing special.
Liu Yuqi walked a few steps towards the door, "You will find from here that this room is centered on this round table, and counting all the decorations in the house will form a pattern."
"pattern?"
Everyone stood at Liu Yuqi's position and followed the direction of her finger to observe.
Nan Qing said first, "I didn't see it."
Shen Qinglan also said, "I didn't see it either."
The others didn't say anything, but they didn't seem to see it. Only Lin Shan shouted, "This pattern!"
Jiang Yizhi turned around and asked him, "Do you know me?"
Lin Shan was a little uncertain. He found a broken book from the storage bag and turned to a certain page, "Senior, read it."
Jiang Yizhi took it, took two steps back, took the book and compared the furnishings in the house, and walked back and forth several times before he said, "It's indeed the same pattern."
He turned the broken book a few more pages before he was surprised, "Is this a teleportation formation?"
