Chapter 13 Where

Chapter 13 Where

The woman looked at Ji Xuan for a while and then said: "Well, I'm going to move here nearby. In the past few days, I just came and went from Xihe Village. I have never sold anything, and there is no one."

Ask me to cut a portrait for someone else."

The woman's words still sounded a bit cold, different from the tenderness at the beginning, and there was also a bit of alienation in them.

A pair of eyes looked at Ji Xuan from top to bottom, but in the end he didn't say anything other than a question.

"Then who else can Madam know who can cut paper?" Ji Xuan seemed not to notice the difference and still asked.

"I don't know." The woman said calmly.

"What's your surname, Madam? Did Madam live in Xihe Village before? How old is this child?"

"What are you doing asking questions here and there? Are you polite?" The woman lost her patience when asked, picked up the child, stuffed the window grilles into her sleeves and strode away.

The movement was so fast that Ji Xuan was speechless. By the time Ji Xuan reacted, no one could be seen.

Ji Xuan looked at it and picked up the only window grille scattered on the ground.

The window grilles are lifelike, adding a touch of color to the cold post.

Even if I look carefully, I can't tell whether the window grilles and the portrait of the big man were made by the same person.

He put away the window grilles, looked around, walked around in circles, and followed the rows of sunflowers deeper for a while.

Ji Xuan lowered his head and walked forward quickly. He exerted all his strength and slowly walked through the rows of sunflowers, stopping at a gray flower field with nothing planted.

I just realized something was wrong before.

He squatted down lazily and pushed away the ash that was no longer visible from the bottom of the garden, then raised his head and said suddenly: "Whose house is this? They even use tungsten carbide to make fires in the weather in April.

"

Tungsten steel carbon, although tungsten steel can also be used to make medicinal powder to make people more excited.

But most of them are mixed with other things and fired into very fine charcoal fires, which are generally invisible in places like Xuefu County. Ji Xuan only saw them in the fireworks building when she was working with her father on a case.

The girls there are very delicate and don't want to have a strange smell on their bodies, so they only use tungsten steel carbon. Although it is expensive, it has no smell.

Ji Xuan threw away some charcoal ash and prepared to use it for medicinal purposes, then stood up and continued walking.

But before leaving the alley, he turned back and went out along the watchtower.

But after I went out, I saw rows of suns in the bottomless watchtower, and for a while I felt like my feet couldn't bear the weight.

Ji Xuan thought hard and plunged into the path she walked in.

After walking out of the rows of sunflowers, I saw a row of daffodils. The narcissus bloomed so brightly that it made people subconsciously want to break off one. Ji Xuan shrank her hands and let out a sigh of relief.

He remembered that when he followed the children in, he followed a row of daffodils.

He paused and then followed the daffodils into the watchtower. It took a full quarter of an hour before he saw a few soldiers in armor.

He quickly walked a few steps outside and stood under the corner of the city wall before he realized where this place was.

Although Ji Xuan didn't know how he got to this place, he also knew that he had walked out. He rounded the corner and turned into the corridor, saw the city gate full of time, and entered step by step.

He crossed the city gate and headed towards the Yamen. Following the Shiyan City outside was the Eight-character Hutong, which he naturally recognized.

"Master Ji, what are you doing here again? Are you out of the city? Didn't I tell you to give me a shout? If you listen to me, you will lose some meat."

As Ji Xuan was walking, she was pulled by Zhang Xuan and pushed up two steps before she could stand still.

"What are you doing?" After standing firm, Ji Xuan took out her arm and looked up at Zhang Xuandao.

"Can you please take a look at what time this is? Should I mark you as derelict in your duty?"

"The weather is hot and it's cool under the corner. I just took a nap. Why are you in front of the tooth shop?" Ji Xuan said casually.

Fang Wu subconsciously looked at the sky. Although the starry sky had just been smudged with purple, it wouldn't make people feel stuffy in the dusk in April, right?

Zhang Xuan half-opened his mouth and mechanically smashed the teeth in his mouth several times, as if he wanted to eat Ji Xuan alive. After a while, he said again: "The guy inside said that An Qing bought the house above Baihebi Gang, and the account is

The name is the same as that of a person named Wang Juan. But his drug store is not listed for sale, so where do they get the money?"

"Wang Juan? Who? What does she look like?" Ji Xuan asked.

"Just one woman," Zhang Xuandao said.

Ji Xuan looked at Zhang Xuan and said nothing. This was obviously nonsense.

"What are you going to do next?" After a while, Ji Xuan saw the two of them still blocking the door of the agency.

"Go up the mountain. Didn't the master say yesterday that we should go to the mountain and have a look?"

"Then let's go." Ji Xuan gritted her teeth. Although she was about to leave, her whole body was still slumped on the door frame.

"Wait a minute." Zhang Xuan kicked the door frame, but Ji Xuan remained motionless.

Fang Wu stood in front of the door frame on the other side, looking at the two people. She felt that it was not the uniform of the Yamen that she was wearing, but these two people had to be beaten by people from the Yamen.

If someone's door messes with them, or if they mess with it, they will be kicked if they can't rely on it.

Zhang Xuan kicked the door with one foot and his other leg was still shaking, like a street bully who came to ask for protection money.

"Zhang Qizhi." The old man ran over and suddenly stopped, handed Wang Juan's household registration book to Zhang Xuan, and was about to leave.

"Stop. The young men have gone up the mountain. You can scold the person who told you. Ask him for the money for processing." Zhang Xuan grabbed the man and threw Ji Xuan into Lao Zhangtou's arms.

Ji Xuan pushed back a few steps and bumped into Fang Wu. Fang Wu stepped back reluctantly and heard a crackling sound.

"Are you from the yamen, or are you the ones who demolished the door?" At this time, the proprietress of the Yamen shop came out with a broom in her hand and said aggressively.

Ji Xuan finally raised her hand to support Fang Wu. When she turned around, she saw that Zhang Xuan had apologized to the landlady very skillfully, and even more skillfully, he shook out some coins from his sleeve and handed them to Lao Zhangtou.

"What's this?"

Not only did a few coins fall out of Ji Xuan's sleeves, but also a window grille fell out.

Fang Wu picked up the window grille and pulled Ji Xuan to follow Zhang Xuan step by step towards Xihe Village. They were going to go up the mountain from Xihe Village.

They wanted to try and see if they could go up the mountain from there, and whether the big man would still go to Xihe Village on weekdays.

"Where is that area?" Ji Xuan didn't say anything. She caught up with Zhang Xuan and grabbed him, pointing to the area on the other side of the city gate.

Looking from this direction, only layers of peach blossoms can be seen.
