Being fooled by fierce beasts to travel through the beginning is fleeing famine

There were only five tables in this tea stall, and they occupied three tables together with the servants. Together with the prison general's wife and her maid and groom, they were all occupied at once.

The stall was set up by a family, the old couple brought four young couples, the old couple lit the fire one by one, and the young couple greeted the guests to clean up, which was more than enough to get busy.

This stall not only has tea, but also sells biscuits and mutton soup. The mutton soup smells very good. Everyone didn’t eat much at noon, so they ordered a bowl of soup and a biscuit, but the biscuit was not freshly baked, and the taste was almost the same. Son.

The wife of the prison general's family was originally drinking tea to rest, seeing that the group of them had eaten it, she couldn't help asking for a portion.

Qingyan has been paying attention to her with her spiritual sense, and even checked her carriage. There is no problem found in the carriage, and there is no hidden compartment or the like.

While waiting for the woman to eat, Qingyan discovered something wrong. This woman was left-handed.

I hold sesame seed cakes with my right hand, spoon and chopsticks with my left hand, and there is a layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth in my left hand. Although it is not thick, it is not very normal.

If there are cocoons on the tiger's mouth, they are either ground with weapons or done with farm work.

I would like to come to a wife from the prison general's family, with thin skin and tender flesh on her face, and her other hand is also clean. It is impossible to only have calluses on her left hand. It is very likely that she has kung fu and often holds weapons in her hand. practise.

If this is the case, isn't her husband's family suspicious?My wife practiced martial arts every day, so it's impossible for the other party not to know, but she just didn't know if she was an accomplice.

Of course, it is also possible that this woman was from a family of military generals before, which is hard to say, after all, it is not surprising that some women here know martial arts.

Vice-General Wang should be able to investigate this aspect, so she doesn't have to worry about it.

Xue Huan'er was sitting just facing that side, and would look over from time to time, and was also secretly observing.

After all, she is not as conscious as Qingyan, so she can't check carefully, so she didn't find these problems, she was just looking to see if this person was waiting for someone while staying here.

Of course, her eyes were rather obscure, and she tried to be as natural as possible. After all, it was normal to look directly over there.

Just like that person would look at this side from time to time, and when he met Xue Huan'er's eyes, he would nod and smile at her.

Qingyan, who had been watching them all the time, was a little speechless. If they were not two women, but a man and a woman, she would have thought that they were flirting with each other interestingly.

Qingyan felt a little funny for her thoughts, she quickly lowered her head and used mutton soup to cover up the corners of her mouth.

She heard the coachman whispering about the fire on the mountain, but she didn't stop it. There are too many people who know this, and the thick smoke on the top of the mountain can be seen here, so there is no need to stop it.

And she also wanted to see the woman's reaction, whether she had any doubts about the sudden fire.

No one on their side talked, mainly because their upbringing and table manners did not allow them to chat while eating.

It should be the first time for Wang Qingyue and her daughter to eat this kind of roadside stall. They are a little cautious, and they hardly make a sound when they eat with their heads down.

Qingyan looked at the woman's expression and stiffened for a moment after hearing those words. She probably still had some doubts.

She also turned her head to look at Qingyuan Mountain, then lowered her eyelids and drank the mutton soup seriously.

When Qingyan withdrew her consciousness, she saw Li Hanyun's thoughtful face, and she didn't know what he was thinking.

What is he thinking?Li Hanyun was also wondering if Nahuo had anything to do with Vice General Wang and the others.

After all, he had just told the other party about the situation at the abbot's side, and there was a fire in the backyard, so it was hard for him not to think about it.

He also got the information from Qingyan before the replay, and wanted to see if he could find any other clues, and go back and tell his grandfather, maybe he could get his grandfather's praise.

You must know that his grandfather was a very serious person, and usually reprimanded and taught the juniors below, and rarely praised him.

But the more this happened, the more they, the juniors, wanted to be praised by him, and they were proud of being praised by their grandfather.

Therefore, most of the time, the Li family boys try their best to express themselves well, and there are really no playboys, even if they are not outstanding, they are the kind of down-to-earth and willing to do it.

Because there were so many people here, the meal took a longer time. The prison general's wife left a little ahead of them, but the interval was not too long. When they started on the road again, the person was not far away from them. Still within her consciousness.

If the current carriage is not in a hurry to drive fast, the speed is really not much faster than the ox cart, and even some servants can keep up with the carriage.

Before they got into the car, Xue Huan'er told Li Hanyun that the lady was the one who connected with the two fake monks.

Li Hanyun was surprised, and said with some complaints: "Sister-in-law, why didn't you say it earlier, and I followed, and now everyone has run away..."

Xue Huan'er quickly interrupted him, "stop, stop, the monk can't run away from the temple if he can run, we know her details, where she can go, and besides, seeing her like that just now, I didn't realize that I was exposed at all, so I must go home It’s gone, it’s impossible to run away.”

After hearing this, Li Hanyun felt relieved a little, seeing that Wang Qingyue's mother and son and Qingyan Muxue had already boarded the carriages, so he quickly got into the carriages and walked forward.

It still took more than half an hour to get back to the city. When they arrived at the city gate, many people gathered there to talk about the fire on the top of Qingyuan Mountain.

There is thick smoke billowing over there, and you can see it from a long distance away. There were few people who came back from the temple fair before, but there was no fire at that time, so they didn't know it at all, so many people gathered here at the gate of Dongcheng, wanting to Get first-hand information.

It was obvious that their group came from there, but the exquisite style of their carriage showed that it was not ordinary people, and no one dared to step forward.

If it was something more ordinary or someone who was coming back on foot, they would definitely stop him and inquire about it.

In their eyes, this kind of carved wooden carriage is the carriage of dignitaries, and they dare not step forward to intercept it easily.

But they didn't dare to ask. If anyone dared, the soldier guarding the gate just asked in passing during the inspection.

There was no need for Xue Huan'er and others to come forward, the coachman answered directly, "The backyard of Qingyuan Temple was flooded. We just saw the fire when we left, and we didn't dare to stay for fear of mountain fire, so we came back directly.

However, the fire did not get bigger along the way. It must have been extinguished, otherwise there would not be such a big smoke. "

After checking and paying the fee, they were released. When they arrived at the intersection, they said goodbye to the mother and daughter of the Wang family, and then went west and north one by one.

Li Hanyun separated from them at the gate of the garrison mansion, and they still had to go forward, turning from the alley on the right side of the garrison mansion to the back, which was their small courtyard.

Because Li Hanyun didn't have a family, he is now living in the garrison mansion, and he is doing his filial piety for his father in front of the old man. When he gets married, he will move out and start his own.

Qingyan's consciousness followed the wife of the prison general back to her home, and her home also lived on the west side of the city, near the outer city.

According to Xue Huan'er, the prison gate general is in charge of the four city gates. His official position is not big, but it is quite crucial, so the courtyard where their family lives is not too small, it is a three-entry courtyard.It looks like a big family living together.

There was an old couple living in the backyard, they should be the parents of the prison general, and the lady went directly to the backyard when she came back, probably to say hello to the two old people and say that she was back.

The middle courtyard should be the residence of the couple, and there are several small courtyards, all of which are occupied by women. They should be concubines' rooms because they don't want to be married because of their clothes.

The front yard should be lived by the sons of the prison generals. Two of them are at home, and they are competing in the yard at this time. They look about the same age as Li Hanyun, about twelve or thirteen years old.

Qingyan suddenly discovered that in this city of Qinzhou, martial arts are more popular, and there are not many scholars, it is true that there are very few. It is said that those civil servants who are prefects, judges, and officials are not pure literati, but have some martial arts skills.

This may have something to do with the proximity to the border here.After all, if the physical fitness is not good enough, I can't survive here.

Not only is the wind and sand here strong, but the folk customs are also very sturdy.

After they got home, Xue Huan'er sent her daughter to rest, and then started muttering to Qingyan. They didn't dare to say these things because they had their daughter in the car before. Not good.

You can never be too careful when it comes to children.

After sending her away at this time, the two of them started talking.

Xue Huan'er asked curiously: "Do you think the abbot of Qingyuan Temple set the fire? It should be that Deputy General Wang went to arrest them. Seeing that he was exposed, he set fire to warn others and let them escape quickly..."

Qingyan said in her heart that if Chou Chou hadn't seen it, she would have thought it was the other party who set the fire. After all, Vice General Wang didn't seem to want someone who could do such a thing. It's not like he can do it.

But the fire was really set by his nephew. Of course, Wang Kaiyuan may have made his own decision, but Vice General Wang waited for the result calmly in the yard, and he didn't panic when he saw the fire. This is very explainable. .

It's just that I can't tell Xue Huan'er about these things. They obviously left together, but it's a bit unreasonable for her to know the follow-up.

The two discussed for a while, but they didn't say anything in the end. Anyway, they had already said the matter, and now they can only wait for the result.

While talking to Xue Huan'er, Qingyan didn't let her mind idle, she kept looking at the prison gate general's house, and she found that she had already cultivated the ability to do two things at once.

Previously, one had to be single-minded to use one's consciousness, and the whole person would appear in a state of daze.

It doesn't seem to be necessary now. Even if you are chatting with someone here, you can still use your spiritual sense to check over there. Of course, it is only under surveillance.

If there are any conversations or subtle movements over there, you still have to concentrate so that you can hear and see them, otherwise you will be disturbed by the conversations here.

Xue Huaner and Qingyan yawned at the same time, they looked at each other and smiled together.

Because I didn't rest at noon, and drove for more than two hours in a carriage, I was actually a little tired.

Xue Huan'er said: "Let's go back and have a rest first. If you have anything to say, we can wait until dinner in the evening."

Qingyan nodded, got up and went back to her small yard.

After a brief wash, he lay on the bed and began to ask Chou Chou, "What's the situation at Qingyuan Temple now?"

Chou Chou: "It's okay, the fire has been completely extinguished, and Vice General Wang led people away secretly through the back door."

Qingyan had seen the back door before, it was locked, and she didn't know how the other party opened the lock. Thinking about how the abbot was arrested by them, it should be very easy to open the back door.

Then he asked: "The other few are okay, but the abbot suddenly disappeared. Didn't the monks who put out the fire find it?"

Chou Chou ran out of the space and lay down next to Qingyan and said: "When they went to catch Zhi He and Scarface, the two guards of Scarface resisted desperately and wanted their master to escape, and then they were killed by Wang. The lieutenant's men killed him.

When the abbot's wing was on fire, their bodies were inside. Wang Kaiyuan and the others deliberately obstructed the monks when they put out the fire, and only let them put out the fire when the fire was almost over.

Those monks thought that the abbot was burned to death, and they were mourning around there. "

Qingyan said in her heart that she thought that there would be no casualties in time when it caught fire and was discovered, but she didn't expect this to happen.

Of course, these two people were not considered dead in the fire. Now they were used to kill Tao. It seems that this was the purpose of setting the fire.

It is estimated that this method has been figured out since knowing that the abbot is also involved, otherwise it would be difficult to take people away without making a fuss.

Also, the two guards probably didn't know much, and they resisted desperately, so now they can be used for other purposes.

Chou Chou continued: "Deputy General Wang probably wanted to see if the two fake monks, the abbot and the Scarface were in the same group, tied them up and put them in a carriage, and let them watch .

But unfortunately, these two groups of people should not be together. I have been staring at them with my spiritual sense. After the two people woke up, they found that they were in the carriage. They were puzzled and then frightened. There was no other emotion, and the two sides did not make eye contact. They should not know each other at all.

Of course, it is also possible that the status of these two fake monks is too low to know the high-status core personnel at all, just like the staff below have no contact with the upper-level, so they may not necessarily know each other even if they are in a group. "

Qingyan had some disagreement, "That's not necessarily true, it's possible that they are two groups, and those two people spoke Tibetan dialect before, so they should be spies placed here by Tubo.

Didn't you say that Scarface might be the Xixia royal family? Although Xixia and Tubo are now in a cooperative relationship, the spies or spies of the two countries will not cooperate. It is possible that they were completing their respective tasks and happened to bump into each other. Just together. "
