"What on earth do you want to say? You stopped talking in the middle of the sentence. What do you mean?" After listening to half of the words, the impatient man urged me.
"Tsk, tsk!" The sinister-looking man smashed the wine in his glass with an expression of enjoyment on his face.
Delicious, really delicious.
Obviously there wasn't much wine in a small cup, but this man couldn't finish it even after drinking for a long time. He sipped it in small sips, or even licked it, which made the people around him anxious.
"Okay, you kid, stop beating around the bush. If you have something to say, just say it directly. Don't let us press you here again." The person at the table who was attracted by his words urged, and at the same time told the waiter: "Go and serve another pot."
Wine, here are two side dishes to go with the wine."
The man with the sly eyebrows suddenly smiled brightly, with a happy look on his face. He gave the speaker a loyal look, drank all the wine in the glass in one gulp, and slowly spoke.
It turns out that there is a village three miles east of the city called Lizhuang. Most of the people in Lizhuang are people with the surname Li. The people of the tribe have lived there for generations, hence the name of the village.
Lizhuang Village received news that this strange thing happened in Lizhuang Village just after the stream passed through it.
Recently, several women in Lizhuang Village have disappeared one after another. The families who lost their daughters immediately reported it to the officials. The officials checked the place repeatedly but could not find the missing persons.
It is strange to say that each of those missing women was in their prime, and they were about to get married. After so many years of hard work in raising them, the girls finally grew up, and they were about to get married, but they lost their lives.
There are no traces, how can the family not be anxious?
"That's right!" He snorted unhappily. This girl is missing. It's a matter of officials in the Yamen. Just look for her carefully. There's nothing wrong in this world, so there's nothing to say.
The stern-looking man became anxious. He looked at the speaker and said, "Don't be impatient. The most important thing will be discussed soon."
"After the people in Lizhuang Village reported the case, the government officials conducted a long investigation, but still could not find the missing woman. Just when the officials were at a loss what to do, cries always came from the creek behind Lizhuang Village in the middle of the night. Early the next day
The villagers screamed loudly, startling countless sleeping people and dogs."
The missing woman was finally found. She was wearing snow-white clothes and had no breath. She was lying on the ground beside the stream.
The woman's clothes had been changed, and the clothes she was wearing were made of expensive materials. People in Lizhuang Village did not recognize her, and even the adults in the government did not recognize her.
"The missing woman was murdered and appeared strangely next to the creek. The government officials inspected the body and found that there were no traces of any injuries on it. It was as if she had walked in on her own initiative. The clothes of unknown origin on her body also angered everyone.
Surprised.”
"Then what?" the impatient man urged, asking him to speak quickly.
The man in the know enjoyed the gazes of the crowd, looked at their curious eyes, and smacked his mouth.
"Waiter, please bring me another pot of good wine." He shouted quickly and loudly so that everyone in the restaurant could hear him.
Next to the window, a woman looked over curiously.
"See, it's just like that girl. She's so beautiful. It's a pity that all the pretty ones are dead."
This man with a sly eyebrow has a good talent for telling stories. The story he told was full of twists and turns, which was so bizarre that everyone who listened was startled and their expressions changed.
"Then what? What happened in the end?" Seeing that the person in the know remained silent, others immediately spoke to urge him.
The stern eyebrow said: "No, the government people have been investigating for a long time, but in the end they did not find the person who committed the crime. There were no injuries on the girls, and the clothes they were wearing could not explain their origins. Everyone said that it was the lonely water god in the river.
, took them down to serve them."
"Nonsense."
After clearing his throat, his face returned to seriousness, and everyone sat apart.
The son is silent and his strange power confuses the gods.
"Bah!" He grasped the two bottles of wine in front of him with a stern look. He drank most of one of them, drank the rest in a few gulps, and walked out with the other bottle.
Lou Yunzhou glanced at Yue Wei.
Yue Wei left silently and followed.
The two of them sat there and slowly finished the meal. Jiang Ningxuan was not very hungry at first, but when Lou Yunzhou asked him to eat together, he simply scooped up a bowl of soup, held it in his hands and drank it slowly.
Lou Yunzhou put down his chopsticks, and Jiang Ningxuan also put down the soup bowl. He just drank a bowl of soup, and his whole body felt warm.
"Let's go." Lou Yunzhou said.
Jiang Ningxuan nodded, stood up and walked beside him.
Not far from the restaurant is an inn.
The Moon Guard heard the commotion and opened the door and welcomed the master in. The remaining few people stood outside to guard him.
"Woo!" Heibu had his eyes covered and couldn't see clearly what was in front of him. Fear made him scream in fear, but his mouth was blocked and he couldn't scream even if he wanted to.
The footsteps left and the sound of the door being opened was heard. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the footsteps sounded again. Someone was walking towards him. There were more people walking towards him than the people who had just left.
"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooootww........." I struggled and yelled, my mouth was loosened, and the stuff that was blocking my mouth was taken off, "Sir, please spare your life!"
"My master wants to ask you a few questions. Please answer them honestly."
"Young man, you must tell the truth and never dare to lie."
His eyes were covered with black cloth and he couldn't see what was in front of him. He was already a timid person, but now he didn't even use threats. When he asked, he told everything he knew.
Jiang Ningxuan and Lou Yunzhou looked at each other.
Do you care about this matter?
Of course you have to take care of it!
Lizhuang Village is at the foot of Mount Tai, and the stream that flows behind Lizhuang Village passes through Mount Tai.
"My lord, I have told you everything I know. I beg you, please spare me."
"Noble sir, the villain really didn't harm anyone. People in the yamen have told you about those things. It's a ghost!"
"My lord, I was wrong, don't kill me!"
I shouted a lot, but the people in front of me didn't say anything. I became more and more frightened in my heart. My body felt hot, then cold, and an unpleasant smell spread in the room.
The door of the house was closed, and there was no one there for a long time.
When the guest left, he specifically told him not to go up and disturb him if nothing happened. The innkeeper looked at the substantial amount of money in his hand and naturally he would not go up without interest.
The distinguished guest never came down, and some people came in a hurry from outside.
"A few of the government servants, the shop is doing its business and is not breaking the law." The shopkeeper's face changed as he faced the government servants who had arrived in a hurry, and he immediately came forward to greet them.
After a while, the officers who went upstairs came down again, and there was another arrested person beside them. One of the officers also held a thick stack of white paper in his hand, with the prisoner's crime written on it. This chapter has been completed!
