The Beacon of Kyushu

Chapter 46

A few days later, in the morning, Qingping County.

Murong Yunyao grabbed Duan Siming's collar with one hand, and walked quickly towards Jiang Shan's house, "Duan, don't say that this girl didn't remind you, you will confront Uncle Jiang later, if he decides that you killed Old Man Liu's family , don’t blame this girl for being rude to you!”

Duan Siming pointed to her hand holding his collar, and said: "Little lady, since we met, you have been rude to me! You have been pulling on my collar all the way, making me want to suffocate, You’ve already been very rude to me, okay? What else do you want? I advise you to let go quickly, or I’m afraid you won’t be able to think of a way to be more rude to me!”

Murong Yunyao smiled slightly, and squinted at Duan Siming, "Duan, you don't need to worry about this matter, this girl still has a hundred ways, do you want to try it now?"

"Don't!" Duan Siming hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Smelly girl, if you dare to force me to death, the officials will not let you go!"

Murong Yunyao nodded slightly, and said in a bit of embarrassment: "Yeah, in case you can't think about committing suicide for a while, I really have to think of a good way to destroy the corpse. You said I chopped you up and fed it to the dogs." Is it better to sink your corpse into the sea? Or this girl sells you to a black shop and makes human meat steamed buns, you must be delicious with such thin skin and tender meat!"

"Help!" Duan Siming yelled, broke free from Murong Yunyao's control, and plunged into Jiang Shan's home.Murong Yunyao was startled for a moment, and then burst out laughing, "Hey, Duan, I didn't realize that you know your way better than this girl, let's see how you explain it now!"

As Murong Yunyao spoke, she walked into Jiang Shan's dilapidated small courtyard, using sign language in a blunt manner, but she didn't notice the old and poor Jiang Shan.She checked the main room again, and found no trace of Jiang Shan still living here.

She wondered in her heart, "Could it be that the Chaos Cult took him away? Or did his son go home and take him to the Chaos Cult?" While thinking wildly, she subconsciously walked into a small warehouse.

She vaguely heard a small sound coming from inside, the sound seemed to come from the dilapidated wooden cabinet in the corner.She instinctively pulled out the sword behind her back, approached the wooden cabinet step by step, and then stabbed straight in with the sound of the sword piercing through the air.

"Killed!" There was a mournful wail from the wooden cabinet, and Duan Siming escaped in an instant, pointing at Murong Yunyao and saying, "You little witch! Tigress! Who will marry you in the future? It's a bad luck for eight lifetimes!"

Murong Yunyao spread her hands and said, "Who told you to hide here, blame me?"

Duan Siming looked around, and became inexplicably serious and said: "Just now, the king briefly looked at these huts, but he didn't find any traces of people living in them recently. I can assure you that these rooms are at least It hasn't been lived in for three or four months."

Murong Yunyao nodded, "Three or four months? In other words, no one has lived here since this girl left here until today? Then where do you think Old Man Jiang will go these days?"

Duan Siming caressed his jaw and said: "You are asking the right person! This king is the little detective of Dali, known as the second Xiao Yan. Let me reason according to the thinking of the detective Xiao Yan in the Five Dynasties period..."

Murong Yunyao looked at Duan Siming seriously, waiting for the result of his reasoning.But after half a day, Duan Siming still didn't speak, she said anxiously: "You still dare to be called a detective, the pig's head is faster than you think! It's been so long, and it hasn't been released yet?"

"The case is too complicated, don't be impatient if you are safe, don't be impatient when you are safe." He said pretending to think for a long time before saying: "We should separately ask in the village, what if he sneaks away to relatives!"

"Damn!" Murong Yunyao said dissatisfied: "Duan, this is the result of your reasoning? You are playing with me!" She raised her palm high and shouted: "Look at my Ling Jueshen palm!"

Duan Siming hurriedly covered his face, and said tremblingly: "You don't slap people in the face! This king was born so handsome, and before he has married a hundred princesses, nothing can disfigure him!"

"One hundred?" Murong Yunyao bared a smile, but slowly lowered her hand.Seeing her put down her hand, Duan Siming hurriedly asked, "You... what tricks do you want to play?"

Murong Yunyao shook her head and said with a smile: "My lady thought about it carefully. Instead of killing you with a single blow, it would be much more interesting to see how you will be exhausted to death by your hundred concubines in the future! However, I What I am most interested in now is which unsightly girl you will marry first!"

Duan Siming pointed at Murong Yunyao, and said angrily: "The first girl I want to marry is you! I want to see who will be the first to ask for mercy!" He turned around and walked out. This dilapidated and messy warehouse.

Murong Yunyao looked at his retreating back, and sighed, "Oh, it's so depressing, even the prince can make such a joke!" After she finished speaking, she seemed to have a sudden reaction, and ran after him. Go out and shout: "Hey, you are worthy of marrying this girl just because you are a beast! If you dare to think wrongly about this girl, I will definitely turn your bridal chamber into a hall of mourning, and we will have weddings and funerals together!"

Duan Siming didn't seem to have heard Murong Yunyao's words. At this moment, he was standing outside the gate, watching the pedestrians passing by on the street with blank expressions. Turning around and looking, the evil wind behind him was not a hidden weapon, but a person.But in his eyes, this person is much more terrifying than any hidden weapon in the world, there is no doubt that this person is Murong Yunyao.

Murong Yunyao looked at Duan Siming, and asked persistently: "Hey, who is the first concubine you want to marry?"

Duan Siming sighed for a long time, "You're not finished, is this king not married? After a few years, this king will go to Chongsheng Temple to become a monk. Anyway, people in the royal family will become monks sooner or later, sooner or later It doesn't make much difference!"

"Oh... it's good to be a monk, it's good to be a monk..." Murong Yunyao suddenly became a little unbearable when she saw this, she hurriedly changed the subject, pointed to the east and said, "my girl, go there, you go to the west, we will ask you from house to house , I don't believe that I can't find out the whereabouts of Uncle Jiang."

Duan Siming shook his head helplessly, and then asked: "What is the relationship between this old man Jiang and you? Seeing that you are so anxious, is he your long-lost uncle?"

Murong Yunyao snorted coldly, and said unhappily: "This matter is a long story, in short, in short, it is related to the life and death of a person of high status."

"Really?" Duan Siming couldn't believe it, "Who is this person? Tell me quickly, I love helping others the most!"

Murong Yunyao nodded seriously, pointed at Duan Siming and said, "This person is you! If you can't prove your innocence, then I have no choice but to kill you for the sake of the people! Who told you to kill Old Man Liu's family?" , and raped Uncle Jiang’s daughter?”

"You! I..." Duan Siming was so angry that she could not speak coherently. He gave her a hard look, and then quickly ran to the west.Seeing this, Murong Yunyao smiled and said: "Hey, don't run away in a hurry! Don't you wonder why this girl asked you to go to the west?"

"Why?" Duan Siming hurriedly stopped, thinking: "Could it be that there are beauties in the west? You keep asking who is the first concubine this king will marry, are you implying this matter? It seems that this king has wronged you! "

Murong Yunyao put one hand on her hip, pointed at Duan Siming with the other, and said, "Don't dream of your spring and autumn yellow beams! This girl thinks that the west is closer to the west sky. If you can't find Mr. Jiang, you can save some money in a while." The strength went straight up, isn't this girl very understanding?"

"Goodbye!" Duan Siming snorted coldly, then turned around and ran towards the east.Murong Yunyao smiled and said: "Who is this! It's the first time this girl is so kind, and he doesn't appreciate it, it's really unreasonable!"

Seeing that Duan Siming had left, Murong Yunyao walked in the opposite direction.She walked towards a farmhouse diagonally opposite, knocked lightly on the door, and not long after, an old man came out of the yard.Seeing that Murong Yunyao was very unfamiliar, he asked with some vigilance: "Whose girl are you from? Do you have anything to do with me?"

"Old man, I really want to ask you something, is it convenient for you?" Murong Yunyao stepped into the gate without any explanation, the old man saw this and said: "Okay, girl, please come in, as long as the old man knows, I will tell you .”

Murong Yunyao smiled and said: "Thank you, old man!" She followed the old man into the main room, quickly scanned the surroundings, but did not see the statue of Chaos, just a very ordinary, but simple and comfortable farmhouse, Only then did I breathe a sigh of relief.

The two sat down in the hall, and the old man said: "I have lived in Qingping County for almost 60 years, how come I have never seen you, the girl must be a foreigner?"

Murong Yunyao rolled her eyes, and said sadly: "Old man, my parents passed away a few days ago, and before they died, they told me to come to Qingping County to join my uncle, so I had to come here from Bianliang to join relatives, naturally you have never seen me .But I worked so hard to find this place, but I couldn't find my uncle's house. I wonder if you know my uncle?"

The old man hurriedly asked: "Little lady, don't worry, what is your uncle's name? As long as he lives in our Qingping County, this old man will definitely know him!"

Murong Yunyao said: "His name is Jiang Shan, I don't know you..."

The old man didn't wait for Murong Yunyao to finish speaking, and said beforehand: "Little lady, are you sure your uncle's name is Jiang Shan? There are Zhang Shan, Wang Shan, Li Shan, and Liu Shan in Qingping County, but there is no one named Jiang Shan. To be exact, there isn’t even a single family named Jiang.”

Murong Yunyao was slightly startled, pointed to the opposite side, and asked: "What's the name of the owner of that family? I see that his house is dirty and dilapidated. It seems that no one has lived in it for a long time?"

The old man nodded, "Yes, that yard has been unoccupied for almost ten years. The former owner of that family was...what was his name..." He thought for a while, and finally shook his head and said, "Oh, People lose their memory when they get old, and I used to be good friends with the owner of the house, but I forgot his name after not seeing him for ten years."

Murong Yunyao pointed in the direction of old man Liu's house, "Old man, do you know the name of the family next to it? I think this family is the most wealthy family in Qingping County, but there is a small garden in front of the courtyard. Since the neighbor has moved away, why not merge that house and expand it into a garden of our own?"

The old man smiled and said: "Little lady, you don't know when you are new here. The family moved north ten years ago. I heard that the whole family lives in Luoyang now. They don't live here. Why do you spend this money?" Wasting money?"

Murong Yunyao was completely stunned when she heard the words, and said to herself, "This is really a hell! If what the old man in front of me said is true, who are those people who died three months ago? Jiang who treated me to dinner and let me stay overnight Who is the old man? Is it because I have hallucinations that these people do not exist at all, or is there some conspiracy in it?"

Seeing her stupefied, the old man said enthusiastically: "Girl, the population of our Qingping County has only been able to move in and out these years, and no outsiders have moved in for many years. Now that these two families have moved out, they will not move in again." I'm back. If the girl is willing to live here, there is no need to spend money to buy a deed, just move here."

Murong Yunyao shook her head blankly, then stood up and said, "Thank you, old man, no need! You say that there are relatives and relatives, but no relatives and friends. Since my uncle doesn't live here, I will return to Bianliang tomorrow." She He said and walked straight to the door.
