Chapter 251 We Can’t Eat
After Decheng Zhenren and the other four sat down in the tea shed, Shitou wanted to hide outside, but Shi Xiaoliu held him down and sat down.
"Shitou, let's have breakfast together."
Seeing that Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng did not object to Shi Xiaoliu's actions, Shitou sat down with peace of mind, with his buttocks only touching half of the stool. .
The breakfast in the tea shed still satisfied Decheng Zhenren and his party, and Shitou felt a lot more at ease.
After breakfast, they were about to get up and leave when they saw five or six officials rushing towards the tea shed.
The face of the man in charge of the tea shed immediately changed, and he quickly said: "Master, are we occupying the road again?"
The official officer he brought with him pressed his hand on the handle of the knife, He saw Master Decheng and his party and asked: "When did you arrive at Shishi Inn yesterday?"
"When it was getting dark."
Master Decheng quickly answered the official question When asked, he looked at the official's official look and turned back to the town. This time something big might have happened.
"Did you come out again after entering the inn?"
"No."
"We asked the innkeeper, and he said he didn't provide you with dinner."
>"We brought dry food. We were too tired from the journey and had no intention of eating more."
The leading officer looked at the behavior of the four of them and said, "You didn't leave the inn at night?"
"No."
Master Decheng asked out of curiosity: "Master, what happened?"
"Don't leave and return to town these days."
Master Decheng nodded and said: "We won't leave these days, but we can't stay in Zhuhui Town forever."
The official looked at the expression on his face: "Where are you from? Come?”
After Decheng Zhenren reported the place name, the official frowned and said, "Why did you come to Zhonghui Town?"
"We want to go to Kunlun Mountain. I heard that someone in Zhonghui Town knows the way to Kunlun Mountain. "
"You have been deceived"
Guan Cha said bluntly: "And the two uncles are not young, do you still believe the story of becoming an immortal?"
Master Decheng and Master Shanzheng pretended to be middle-aged this time, and now they seem to be very successful in pretending.
"My lord, there is always a reason for the groundless rumors. Maybe the elders of the previous generations in the town have been to the Kunlun Mountains, but it has been a long time ago and the matter has not been passed down."
"My lord, I heard from my wife. However, hundreds of years ago, some immortals went to Kunlun Mountain and returned to the town. "
"Go and tell anyone who has guests these days."
"Master, what big thing happened."
"Tou Chen, we can't hide this matter for long, so why not let everyone know about it."
Chen Tou glared at the talkative official, and finally said: "Last night, Dongtou Guaizi's family was killed, and the children were not spared."
"Ugh." There were still people dining in the tea shed. , after listening to Chen Tou’s words, he immediately felt uncomfortable.
"Squeak."
The stool Shitou was sitting on made a sound, and Shi Xiaoliu glanced at him: "What are you afraid of?"
Shi Zelan looked at him and shook his head and said: "We don't even know where the east and west ends are."
"That's right."
Shitou sat down again, blushing: "I didn't doubt you."
"If such a big disaster happens, the officials will investigate the case carefully. "
Master Decheng said to Chen Tou: "The sooner you officers solve the case, the sooner we can leave and return to the town. "
The rest of them have no intention of sitting around in the tea shed. Yes, they were actually people from the tea shed, and the look in their eyes made them uncomfortable. On the way back to the inn, the group of them encountered many appraising looks, and also saw passers-by dodge in fear of avoiding them.
When they entered the inn, the host heaved a sigh of relief when he saw them coming in, and then said very embarrassedly: "The official went upstairs to check your room."
Decheng Zhenren The group of people nodded. The bags they carried contained two or three pieces of clothing, as well as two or three bags of food, which were also used to cover people's ears and eyes.
They went upstairs and entered the room, and found that the bundle had been lifted, but it had never been opened.
The host also followed upstairs at this time and stood at the door of the room opened by Master Decheng. He said anxiously: "You are not in the room. The official has not opened your bags. They said they would come back later."
Master Decheng nodded: "We are not leaving the inn.
Can we sit in the hall downstairs for a while?"
The host nodded repeatedly: "I know you didn't have any last night When I went out, I was the first one to open the door of the inn."
Master Decheng looked at him: "Are you officials quick at handling cases?"
The boss shook his head: "Not for so many years. There has been such a tragic case.
I also think it can't be you who did it. You don't know anyone from the kidnapper's family. ”
While they were talking, the officials came to the inn, but Chen Tou was not there this time.
They came up and said they wanted to check the belongings of the four people of Decheng, and Decheng took the initiative to open the bags and give them to them. They checked.
After the official looked through it, he opened the window and looked down, and asked: "If you jump from such a high window, will your legs break?" "
"No.
Those of us who travel would not dare to go so far if we didn’t know a few moves. "
The official looked at Master Decheng carefully, and then left a person standing outside the door. They went to the room next door to Master Shanzheng.
Master Shanzheng was making tea and drinking. The official came in and also opened the bag for the official to see.
The official looked at it and said in surprise: "You have traveled such a long way and you only have this much luggage?" "
"Yes, we are not businessmen, so we don't need to carry too many things on the road. ”
The official opened the window as usual and asked: "If you jump from here, will your legs be broken?"
"Under normal circumstances, this will not happen."
The official took a deep look at Shanzheng Zhenren, then went to Shi Zelan's room, and he asked the same question.
Shi Zelan said to the officer very frankly: "I have never jumped from the window before. Do you want me to try it now?"
The officer only thought that Shi Zelan was reckless. The man immediately said displeased: "I didn't ask you to jump out of the window, and you shouldn't jump out of the window casually in the future."
When he left, he looked at Shi Zelan's feet very carefully, and Shi Zelan followed him and looked at his own feet.
"Master, is there something wrong with my feet?"
"No."
Outside the door, there was an official standing, and next door, the official also asked Shi Xiaoliu also had the same problem of jumping out of the window.
“Jump out of the window. From such a high distance, I probably won’t break my legs.
But I can't guarantee such a thing.
Sometimes, you will choke when drinking water. "
After the officials left, Master Decheng and his party sat directly outside the inn, while the host stayed by their side.
"You won't be leaving for the next two days. "
Shi Zelan glanced at him: "In this situation, do we dare to leave? ”
The owner rubbed his hands vigorously: "It's better not to leave. We have a lot of delicious food here."
"In this situation, we can't eat it."
