Liaozhai: I just want salted fish with invincible magical powers

Chapter 141 Twin Induction

Hu Qian nodded.

Women in ancient times had no status, and unmarried women had even lower status.

Parents can be transported back to their ancestral home after death, but the daughter can only be cremated on the spot without even a whole body.

However, luckily it wasn't in Lanruo Temple.

But with the skill of the dryad's grandmother, moving Xiaoqian's ashes there is a trivial matter.

Hu Qian asked again: "Which direction is the Sili Bridge?"

"West of the city."

Hu Qian vaguely remembered that Lanruo Temple was three and a half miles east of the city. Thinking about it this way, Xiaoqian should not have been controlled by the tree demon yet.

"Where is Lanruo Temple?"

Old Yandai was startled, "My lord asked Lanruo Temple why?"

"just asking."

Old Yandai said in a low voice: "My lord, please don't go to Lanruo Temple. I heard that there are ghosts there."

Hu Qian asked a few more words, and went to the backyard to continue to help pack things.

In the evening, the county magistrate Qin Jia, chief secretary He Zhengqing, Dian Shi Zhang Quanmu, inspector Xia Houjin, and deputy inspector Liu Erqi gathered in the guest building.

Seeing Hu Qian's arrival, everyone immediately got up to salute.

The two sides exchanged greetings for a while, and then entered the table.

Qin Jia can be regarded as an official, and he always speaks good and official words.

He Zhengqing doesn't talk much, he is an honest middle-aged scholar.

Hu Qian was very interested in the two people from the inspection department.

This inspection department is the exclusive robbery officer of the prefecture and county. He usually has nothing else to do and moves freely.

After the death of Yi Tiebian, a large number of bandits under him wandered in various states and counties in Jinling, and sometimes they would commit crimes in broad daylight.

In the remote area of ​​Guobei County, the law and order is even worse. Judging from the case files that Hu Qian had read before, theft accounted for [-]% of the total cases, and almost none of them could be closed.

There have been several layers of portraits of Jiangyang robbers posted outside the county government office, but none of them can be caught.

Those powerful people gathered together to make a living by catching Jiangyang thieves in exchange for rewards.

In fact, how can they catch them, they just grab the portraits randomly, and often arrest people indiscriminately and send them to the yamen.

In order to deal with the inspection of Dali Temple, Fan Wenguang turned a blind eye.

So unjust deaths of the people happen from time to time.

Xiahou Jinsheng of the inspection department was tall and powerful, with a long sword hanging on his waist, many and thick calluses on his hands, a stern face, and not many smiles.

Qin Jia introduced: "Master Xiahou is a master of swordsmanship, and the bandits nearby are all afraid when they hear his name. It can be said that he is the number one expert in the inspection department."

Before he finished speaking, Xia Houjin said coldly: "Your Majesty Qin is too polite, he is really the number one expert, how could he be relegated to this little Guobei County."

Qin Jia quickly smoothed things over and said, "Oh, Mr. Xiahou, you don't have to be overly humble. This matter of catching the robbers still depends on your efforts."

Xia Houjin said: "I heard that Mr. Hu hung his sword in the air last night, scaring the people so much that they all turned pale. But there is such a thing."

Hu Qian said: "That's right, I also know a little bit about swordsmanship."

Xia Houjin immediately came to the spirit and said: "Oh, although the official is not the number one, he pursues the number one in the world. Since the adult is good at swordsmanship, he will have to learn later."

Qin Jia said: "Master Xiahou, Mr. Hu has just arrived here, it's better not to compare, lest the sword will be blind and hurt the peace."

Hu Qian said: "That's right, I'm exhausted, the competition can wait until later."

Xia Houjin snorted and stopped talking.

After the show ended, Hu Qian immediately returned to Houya.

Rong Ning'er and Yingcai had prepared hot water long ago, and asked Hu Jiu to buy charcoal on the street to keep the room warm.

When Hu Qian came back, the two immediately washed and wiped Hu Qian's body.

While enjoying it, Hu Qian sighed and said, "Although there are many thieves in Guobei County, they are not as harmful as the drought. If we don't find a solution as soon as possible, the people will be displaced, and their lives will be ruined."

Rong Ning'er said: "Does it really have to be a drought?"

Hu Qian said: "Although this matter is said to be non-existent, it may be possible to try it, but no one knows where the Hanba is."

Thinking of this, he immediately thought about the tree demon.

Could this drought have anything to do with it?

After washing up, Rong Ning'er immediately served Hu Qian to go to bed to rest, and Yingcai packed up the tub and other things before going outside.

The two were lying on the bed, Rong Ning'er rested her head on Hu Qian's chest, and said softly: "I thought being an official was a good thing, but I didn't expect that there would be so many troubles. It would be better to be free at home before."

Hu Qian caressed her smooth and tender jade arms, "This is the way things are in the world, you can only gain if you give up."

"The concubine doesn't care about these things, as long as the husband is happy, the concubine will be happy." As he spoke, he suddenly got up and kissed Hu Qian's chest.

Hu Qian was distracted, and immediately pinched her chin, "You are playing with fire."

Then he held her small face and kissed her, until her whole body was limp as if she had no bones, and then he pressed down on her.

At the same time, inside the Tibetan Spring Tower.

Ma Ling'er was sitting on the inside of the bead curtain and playing the piano. A foot away from the bead curtain, the two Pianpian young masters were drinking and looking behind the bead curtain from time to time.

The bead curtain is shaking, although it is not real, but it adds three points of mystery, making people feel that the beauty is rare.

One of them said: "Such a beauty, if I can kiss Fangze, I will die without regret."

Another person said: "Yes, I asked Mama Pang earlier, as long as 3000 taels, you can win the first place."

"Why did the price increase again? Wasn't it 2000 taels earlier?"

"Pang's mother said that Ma Ling'er is a very yin girl, a rare beauty in the world, and has the effect of eliminating disasters and difficulties, so it is more expensive."

"This old ram! You really know how to make these gimmicks!"

"Although several members of the public have this idea, 3000 taels is really too much.

If you can buy it back, it's almost the same, it's just the top spot, it's not worth it. "

"If you think it's not worth it, if someone thinks it's worth it, someone will definitely take advantage of it."

"Hmph! The false county magistrate said that he would send Ma Ling'er to be burned with the Hanba, but he might have some nasty idea behind him!"

"Who doesn't know..."

Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a proud hum.

The two looked up suspiciously, only to see Ma Ling'er's complexion was very strange, and the piano in his hands was also out of order.

The two looked at each other, and when they were about to ask questions, Ma Ling'er suddenly said softly: "I'm not feeling well, please forgive me, my lord."

After speaking, he got up and gave a blessing, and walked away quickly.

When she got to the bedroom, she put the latch on the door first, and then directly poured tea and took a few sips.

However, her body was still a little strange, so she hurried to bed and rested.

From this, it was confirmed that the person I saw yesterday was indeed Hu Qian.

Thinking about it this way, my sister must have followed.

And she knew exactly what they were doing just now.

The distance is so close, the induction between the twins is very strong.

Her breath was uneven, she looked out of the window with some sadness, and said in a daze: "...how will the days ahead be good..."
