I slay demons and cook in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 201 Inquiry
After hearing Shen Qinglan's idea, the four of them waited for the diners at that table to leave, and then walked over immediately.

Zhou Huai shouted, "Auntie, here are four bowls of wontons."

The aunt who set up the stall immediately responded with a smile, "Okay!"

"Cousin, let's go back. They say that there are flower pickers in this city recently."

Shen Qinglan stood by the table and tugged at Nan Qing's sleeve, refusing to sit down.

It was the first time Nan Qing saw Shen Qinglan speak in such a coquettish tone, and tried not to laugh out loud.

Liu Yuqi didn't speak much at first, she didn't even have lines, she just had to keep her head down and hold back her laughter.

Nan Qing controlled her facial expressions, and followed the script she had spoken in advance, "I'm here now. I heard that the wontons here are the best. We'll go back after we finish eating. There are no flower picking thieves here. Don't listen to the nonsense of the driver. He just wants us to pay the car fare earlier and go back to the inn, and after paying the car fare for the whole day, he just wants to do half a day's work, don't even think about it!"

She noticed the look in the eyes of the aunt selling wontons, and immediately added, "It's hard to come out once, and we have to go to Qingshui River to release river lanterns at night."

These lines were made up by Shen Qinglan in advance. Qingshui River is a small river in Tongcheng. Shen Qinglan remembered that A Niang said that girls in the city like to go to the riverside to set off river lanterns and wish to marry a good husband or something.

The reason why she remembered it so clearly was also because she sneered at this kind of wishing at the time.

There are many people here, and there are many older aunts. Most of these people are very enthusiastic. If the city is not safe, someone will definitely come out to stop them.

Sure enough, the aunt who sold wontons over there brought a bowl of cooked wontons, "Are you guys from somewhere else?"

Shen Qinglan nodded, "Well, I came from Yongcheng to offer incense."

Not far from Tongcheng, there is a temple, the incense is still strong, and people from other places often come to offer incense.

The aunt sighed, "No wonder, you guys should not go out at night, the city is not very safe recently."

Shen Qinglan said excitedly, "I'll just say it!"

Nan Qing asked the aunt, "Auntie, is there really a flower picker in the city?"

The aunt glanced at Zhou Huai with a strange expression on her face.

"Auntie?"

The aunt selling wontons had no choice but to say, "This flower picker is a bit hard to say. Apart from the beautiful girls, there are also some handsome and strong young people who have disappeared."

Everyone looked at Zhou Huai...

Zhou Huai felt embarrassed to be molested face to face.

Shen Qinglan couldn't hold back her laughter, "My elder brother is indeed handsome and strong."

Obviously long is very ordinary!

Nan Qing glared at her, what are you laughing at, the elder brother is already handsome.

It was Zhou Huai who quickly returned to normal. He took out a small piece of silver from his pocket, "Auntie, we are all from other places, please tell us carefully."

When he took out the silver, the diners around who were eating wontons also saw it.

Two middle-aged women came up and said, "Oh, brother, let me tell you, all the boys and girls from the house to the east of my house have been kidnapped."

One of them reached out to grab the money, but the aunt who sold the wontons was quicker and held the money in her hands, "What do you want to know, I know these things most clearly."

She pointed to the middle-aged woman she just mentioned, "The family to the east of Hong's family, yo, the son and the girl are so handsome. It's a pity that the two children died together on the same night last month, and the government is a little bit There were no clues to be found."

Shen Qinglan asked her, "How old is the child? How often will it appear?"

"The boy is eighteen, I heard that he is about to get married, and the girl in his family seems to be sixteen."

The aunt selling wontons was a little unsure, and asked the woman next to her, "Mr. Hong, is his girl sixteen?"

The middle-aged woman said angrily, "It's sixteen."

Aunt Wonton laughed, "That's sixteen, the same age. How often does it appear, about once or twice a month, I hear that someone who is good is kidnapped again."

"Only young men and women?"

"That's right, those in their teens and twenties, not only the girls, but even the pretty little women were taken away."

Aunt Wonton sighed again, "It's a crime. If good people enter those places, there is no way out."

Shen Qinglan was puzzled, "What is the place that Auntie mentioned?"

"Hey, isn't it just a brothel or something like that? I heard that those elders also like handsome boys."

As she spoke, she glanced at Zhou Huai again, making Zhou Huai want to blow his hair.

"Old woman, what are you doing there, hurry up and greet the guests!"

The other stall owner was an uncle. Looking at the tray in his hand, he should have just delivered food.

As soon as I came back, I heard my mother-in-law say something about brothels to the guests, and she couldn't help yelling loudly.

Aunt Wonton just laughed when she was yelled at, "You guys, don't go anywhere, let alone go to Qingshui River to send out lanterns at night. Go back to Yongcheng early after you burn the incense."

Shen Qinglan nodded and agreed, "Thank you, auntie."

Only then did Auntie Wonton walk away satisfied, and she didn't forget to turn around and tell her, "Don't run around."

"Okay, I know."

Shen Qinglan sat down and picked up the spoon, "Could it be that you are really a flower picker?"

When a wonton entered her mouth, she couldn't help frowning. She was used to eating food with aura, so the taste was worse than she thought.

Zhou Huai frowned, "What kind of flower picker can take away a Qi refining monk?"

Liu Yuqi hesitated for a moment and said, "Then it might be a cultivator who practiced sorcery? I heard that some cultivators increase their cultivation base by absorbing the essence of men."

Nan Qing shook her head, "Then I want to kidnap a male cultivator with spiritual roots."

This is not bad. There are indeed monks who cultivate through the method of harvesting tonics. Both male and female nuns may be the targets of these people, but ordinary people are not very useful.

Zhou Huai stood up, "Let's look at the government again."

After the four of them got up and left, the aunt came over to collect the bowl, "Hey, everyone said to eat my wontons, why did the girl who said she wouldn't eat one ate one, and the others didn't even move?"

Shen Qinglan took a bite out of the four bowls of wontons, and the others didn't even touch their spoons.
-
Several people did not find any useful news from the government.

They entered the official mansion incognito, and took an official to a dark place. The official was almost frightened to death by the sudden appearance of four people.

He said whatever people asked him, and there was no false word.

It's a pity that the government has not found any news in the past two years.

They all felt that the flower picker's martial arts were so strong that he didn't leave a trace.

By the time they got back to join the city, Jiang Yizhi had already thought of an idea.

Lin Shan said that he checked with his friends, and the person basically appeared once every 20 days.

Most of the targets were in the west of the city, where his friend suddenly disappeared that day.

It has been more than ten days since someone disappeared last time. If there is no accident, that person should appear again within the next ten days.

So Jiang Yizhi decided to divide the seven of them into three teams, and wait for that person to show up on his own initiative!
