Chapter 104 Hong Ze meets

"Old man, hurry to Hongze Lake!"

As soon as he said that, Chu Xunyu regretted it. Isn’t this nonsense? He is an ordinary man, and he is fast, where can he go? He quickly changed his words and said, “Old man, we are near to the dock, we are going to get off the boat.”

"Ah? Guest, you're so anxious?" The old boatman looked puzzled.

"Yes, there is something urgent, go to the dock!"

The old boatman had no choice but to row towards the shore. At this time, Mu Yuan pushed out of the water and returned to the boat with all the water splashes. He took off his naked body, and he was so "white strips in the waves". Mu Yuan wiped his body dry, put on his clothes, took out the jade pendant he had just appeared, looked at it for a long time, and couldn't help but spit a splash of water splashes and complained: "Hu Xiaolin is really vulgar, it's simply vulgar!"

"Ah? How do you say this?" Chu Xunyu looked at him in surprise.

"Look carefully." Mu Yuan handed over the jade pendant in his hand. "There were so many ornaments hanging on his body, and the sound of jinglings was like a tyrant, and he didn't feel tired. Now I'm looking carefully. It turned out to be a fake, fake, and a real vulgar person."

After listening to it, Chu Xunyu couldn't help but glance at him, but what he said was right. This thing was indeed a fake. Hu Xiaolin still had so many hangs around his waist, which was really a vulgar person.

As he was speaking, the boat had already reached the shore, the three of them jumped off the bow of the boat, threw a ingot of silver for the old man, and settled the boat account, and immediately went ashore to find the farmer. There were many farmer houses on the shore, and there was a pastoral scenery, so there was definitely a must-have for horses. After all, Wangchen had just recovered from a serious illness, and he could block the air if he was not angry. Sure enough, under a house eaves, it was easy to find a horse. The three of them ran over immediately, knocked on the door and shouted: "Open the door, open the door."

A middle-aged man walked out of the house with his wife. When he saw three people, he felt that Qi Yu was not unfair and did not dare to neglect. He hurriedly asked, "Three guys, what's wrong?"

"I want to buy your horse, three."

"This..." the man looked hesitant, as if he was a little reluctant.

Chu Xunyu raised his hand impatiently, took out a big ingot and shook it, and asked directly: "Can you sell it?"

"Sell, sell." When the man saw that the person who came was so generous, it seemed as expected. He must be the child of a wealthy family, so excited that he even stuttered when he spoke.

"Okay, take a saddle and prepare a horse!" Taking advantage of the opportunity of the farmer going out to trap the horse, Chu Xunyu took out a green pill, which was fragrant. He used two fingers to crush the pills and distributed them to Mu Yuan and Wangchen, only the size of sesame seeds. This is not Chu Xunyu's stingy. This drug is too effective. If he is given to the horse, he will probably die of exhaustion on the spot.

The saddle was set up, and the three of them came to the horse's mouth and rubbed the medicine into the horse's mouth with their fingers. Suddenly, the three mortal horses were like divine power from heaven, panting heavily and vaguely broke out. Everyone immediately turned over the horse, grabbed the horse's belly, rode the horse's whip, and galloped out, leaving only the stunned peasant couple who were watching in place.

"Hey, hey, the boss, you suffer a loss, you suffer a big loss, this horse is selling cheap!" said the peasant woman with a look of reluctance.

"Yes, yes, but when did our horses become like this?" The man looked surprised and watched the backs of the three people in the distance slowly disappear...

"I said, why are you so generous in your actions now?" Mu Yuan's face was full of puzzled expressions, because seeing Chu Xunyu's actions these few times were very generous.

"Nothing." Chu Xunyu didn't care at all, and explained while speeding, "This time I went home, I added a large amount of mortal property, gold, silver and fines, and packed up a large bag."

"Hehe, OK, OK." When Mu Yuan heard this, he was overjoyed. It seemed that the food on the way was settled.

"If you don't take your flowers, you can find a way." Chu Xunyu didn't even look at him, and knew what the kid was thinking, and immediately poured a basin of cold water.

The three of them were like arrows full of strings, galloping all the way on the country road, leaving behind a long string of dust. The pedestrians passing by were surprised, and only felt three figures flashing by, and they couldn't help but sigh at what a noble horse this was, and they were so extraordinary.

In just over an hour, the three of them arrived at Hongze Lake and saw the lake water from afar. They all suppressed their horses. But what was surprised was that there was a busy scene here, and there seemed to be no abnormal movement. There were ducks playing in the water on the lake surface, farmers were catching boats and fishing, and pedestrians passed by, bartering from things, without any abnormal movement at all. This was really strange.

It was a foolish way to find out the problem, and the three of them all turned over and got off the horse, led the horse, and walked slowly. Before they knew it, they walked to a farm tea shop. They said it was a tea shop, which was to set up a few tables and a curtain, and called the tea shop. As soon as the three of them walked over, the boss immediately came over and asked, "Call, are you going to have a cup of tea?"

"Nonsense, come on, why don't you drink tea?" Chu Xunyu didn't care about Hu Xiaolin's affairs, so he answered casually with a weird language.

However, this question and answer were so strange that Wangchen. Wangchen grabbed Mu Yuan and asked in a low voice: "What language do these two people speak? It's so weird."

"Oh, this is Huaiyang dialect from Jiangnan. It has not yet left the Huaiyang territory." Mu Yuan replied with a smile.

Wang Chen shook his head helplessly and asked aloud to the boss: "Boss, can you speak official language? Official language?"

"Of course I will say it, please give me the order!" The boss smiled and quickly waved his hand to wipe the table.

"Oh, it's good to speak official language, and we can speak too." Wangchen nodded and took the lead in sitting down.

Soon, the boss brought three tea bowls, came close to him, placed them on the table, and said with a smile: "Take them three, it's fragrant and elegant."

Since ancient times, the best place to inquire about things is the brothel Chu Pavilion and the teahouse and the restaurant. Why? Because there is a large flow of people here, Mu Yuan picked up the tea bowl, tasted it slightly, and immediately waved his hand and threw it over some copper plates, shouting: "Not bad, I'm rewarded." Not to mention, although Mu Yuan is a Buddhist practitioner, for some reason, Master Huitan never asked him to take the precepts, nor did he wear monk robes. One end was a half short, and a long robe, which was born with a good face.

The boss was happy to give a smile, thinking that these people must be from King Jinling, and he was so generous. But when Chu Xunyu saw it, he frowned and said intently that he accidentally picked up a bargain for Mu Yuan. Why? Because this kid was always very stingy and bought snacks to save some money. This reward would inevitably lead to crying and asking for money from himself. This is called one-point pay, two-point pay.

Looking at Mu Yuan's successful smile, Chu Xunyu asked helplessly: "Boss, let me ask you, have there been any abnormal movements by the Hongze Lake these days?"

"Abnormal movement?" The boss was a little surprised, "What the guest official said about is..."

"Anything is fine, the Zhang family, the Li family's fault, any stolen things from the family, or somewhere that they died, or somewhere that shines inspiration."

"This..." the boss hesitated for a while, and then asked carefully, "It probably wasn't, but I heard that the wife of Lao Li and his family went to another place to visit the ancestral grave, but she was stained with yin energy. She immediately asked the Taoist priest to exorcise ghosts. Is this count?"

"Yeah? Jump the great god?" Chu Xunyu said strangely: "It's interesting to do something to exorcise ghosts."

"Haha, please wait and see, I'll go back and do it first."

"Go, go."

After leaving, Chu Xunyu lowered his head and said, "It's interesting. This family needs to be done. It seems we're going to have a look."

"I can't help but!" Mu Yuan sighed, "Isn't it?" There was a quiet look here, without any movement. The only strange thing was that this ritual would not be able to go and see it."

After a while, the cup of tea was no longer smelly, so he put down the tea bowl in his hand and asked the place where Old Li's house was. He walked out of the teahouse, led three horses again, and walked slowly by the lake, looking at the scenery of the lake while thinking about things.

As he was walking, Chu Xunyu remembered and asked, "Muyuan, did you go back and ask Master Huitan if he did? Why did he send you out?"

"This..." Mu Yuan hesitated for a while, "I can't say this, I went to ask, but the master pushed him and made many excuses. But I heard one thing, he seemed to have received some news. He knew that I was in Jiangnan and was very likely to be in danger, so he sent me out to work quietly and stay away from Jiangnan."

These words were natural, explaining the story of why Master Huitan appeared in the kitchen next door so magically. Wang Chen said again: "Also, the woman in black turned into my appearance and sneaked into the wedding banquet of the Yaowang Mansion. What would she do? If our previous guess is correct, it was targeting you eight people, then, Gongsun Yan and Mu Yuan were both present that day, which one would she kill?"

"This..." Chu Xunyu and Mu Yuan hesitated, and no one could say it well.

Wang Chen suddenly exclaimed: "Could this woman want to kill two birds with one stone and assassinate you two at the same time?"

"What?" Chu Xunyu was shocked, "It's very likely, but how could she be so arrogant and kill these two people in full view of everyone?"

"This is not simple." Mu Yuan pulled a willow branch that was gradually withering. "Didn't you mention that the woman had a 'Autumn Cicada', and she mingled in and went silently into the wine, and we were done."

"This is even more impossible." Chu Xunyu of course denied, "You think this roaming autumn cicada is the candied haws on the street. You have to eat it at any time. As far as I know, it is extremely complicated, and the materials required are extremely luxurious. In such a short time, she cannot match it well. More importantly, if she really poisons, the whole house will have already lie down, and you will not live until now."

"Then what is she going to do?" Mu Yuan sighed, unable to think of it.

As the three of them were talking, they had already walked to the yard of Old Li. A group of people could be seen from afar, crowded at the gate to watch the fun. Chu Xunyu and others tied the horses and squeezed in. They finally pulled open the crowd and squeezed into the front row. When they saw him, Chu Xunyu was so surprised that he almost bit his tongue. Why? Because the ritual in the yard was not someone else jumping up and down, but Hu Xiaolin...
