Chapter 70 The suitor back then (23)
What was supposed to come eventually came.
However, Chen An didn't expect to come so early.
It has only been two days since the death of Deacon Tang, and the Law Enforcement Hall of the Bamboo Leaf Gang has come to investigate, which can be said to be very fast.
"Huh~"
Chen An took a deep breath, stood up and came out of the alchemy room.
At this time, the wives and concubines were already waiting in the hall.
All of them had worries on their faces.
After all, Deacon Tang died at the hands of their husbands, and his body is still buried in the backyard.
Now when I see people from the Zhuye Gang Law Enforcement Hall coming to investigate, I'm lying if I say I'm not worried.
The wives and concubines were worried, and Chen An was even more worried.
But as the head of the family, he couldn't show it at this time.
He just gave his wife and concubines a few words and took them out to the alley outside the house.
At this moment, residents from every household in the alley came out.
But what was different from the past was that the people who came out did not stand on both sides of the alley.
This is because many male cultivators in the alley were forced to become mercenaries. Many of them died in battle, but few came back alive.
It only decreases but does not increase. Over time, there will be fewer residents in the alley.
You know, in the past, the ratio of men to women in the entire Green Willow Alley was almost the same.
But now at a glance, there are nearly twice as many women as there are men.
In many families, there is only one man in the whole family, and the rest are all wives and concubines.
Among these wives and concubines, few had original wives, and many were widows taken in from the homes of dead neighbors. They all looked good-looking.
Those with poor looks and good looks were forced to go to the battlefield, while those with low cultivation were assigned to work day and night in the logistics department.
"Stand still, don't wander around!"
A fierce-looking monk from the Law Enforcement Hall shouted loudly.
The Bamboo Leaf Gang's law enforcement hall has an elder, a hall master, and three deacons.
And he is the hall master.
After seeing that the residents had settled down, the hall master surnamed Huang said respectfully to Elder Zhao beside him: "Elder Zhao, all the residents have come out, what are your plans next?"
Elder Zhao said calmly: "Group two people into ten groups, go from house to house, search the house, search for Deacon Tang's belongings, ask the owner of the house if he knows anything, and see if you can find any clues.
.”
Upon hearing this, Hall Master Huang immediately arranged for his men to be divided into two groups and search from house to house.
As for himself, he stayed put and waited for Elder Zhao to give the next instructions.
After hearing what Elder Zhao said, Chen An couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
He also thought that Elder Zhao, who was a powerful foundation builder, would have some means to search for souls and interrogate them, and he was worried that he would be exposed.
As a result, Elder Zhao's method seems to be no different from the visit and investigation in his previous life.
At most, the attitude will be tougher.
However, this method of investigation could not find out that Deacon Tang had ever appeared in Chen An's house.
Because when Chen An disposed of the body afterwards, he used special elixir fire to burn the body and the body's belongings to eliminate the aura above.
Let alone humans, even if a spirit dog came, they would never find anything.
Chen An thought so, with a calm look on his face.
However, this calmness disappeared in the next second.
Because the elder Zhao of the Law Enforcement Hall was walking towards him with the Huang Hall Master at the moment.
"Husband..."
Song Huaying was very worried when she saw this. She couldn't help but reach out and grab the hem of Chen An's clothes. She was so nervous that her palms were slightly sweaty.
She is a mortal, and she will instinctively feel nervous when facing strange monks.
Chen An was afraid that her secret would be exposed, so he gave her a sleep aid.
Song Huaying fell asleep instantly and was supported by Gu Xinyue beside her.
Chen Yuejian, who was originally in her arms, was now hugged by Wen Zhiyun.
"Elder Zhao."
"Master Huang."
Seeing that Elder Zhao and Hall Master Huang had already walked up to him, Chen An said respectfully.
Hall Master Huang said "Yeah" indifferently.
Elder Zhao did not respond, his eyes fell on Wen Zhiyun's belly, and his brows wrinkled slightly.
He is a foundation-building monk with strong spiritual consciousness. Even if Wen Zhiyun's fetus has not moved yet, he can still sense the life in Wen Zhiyun's belly.
"Young Daoist Wen, are you pregnant?"
"Um."
Wen Zhiyun said in a cold voice.
When Elder Zhao heard this, he suddenly felt angry in his heart.
In the past, he pursued Wen Zhiyun as a foundation-building expert, but Wen Zhiyun ignored him and said that he should abstain from sexual intercourse and concentrate on cultivation, and should not have any feelings between men and women.
As a result, Wen Zhiyun is now married to Chen An, a low-level alchemist, and is pregnant with Chen An's child.
This made him feel particularly annoyed.
Oh, you also talked about abstinence and practice, but now it seems that she is nothing more than a slut who cares about her appearance.
As soon as he saw a handsome male cultivator, he immediately fell in love with him and married him. Within a year, he was outcast.
Damn it!
The more Elder Zhao thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't help but say to Hall Master Huang with a cold face: "I suspect that Deacon Tang's disappearance is related to this family. Come with me to search!"
I said it was a search, but actually I just wanted to go in and see what kind of husband Wen Zhiyun married into.
What he wants to see is where he lost!
Is it really just a matter of appearance?
Accompanied by Chen An's family, Elder Zhao and Hall Master Huang entered the house.
Hall Master Huang is really searching.
Elder Zhao, who proposed to come in for a search, immediately went straight to Wen Zhiyun's room with his sensitivity to different people's scents.
In the name of searching, he greedily looked at his goddess's boudoir like a dog, sucking in the smell inside and feeling extremely satisfied inside.
However, when he smelled the fragrance of a large amount of heather in the air, he was so angry that the veins on his forehead popped out. He was so angry that he clenched his fists on his clothes and wanted to smash Chen An, who was holding Wen Zhiyun's hand beside him.
He could imagine how many brutal fights had taken place in this small boudoir, and how many billions of lives had been wiped out. The more he thought about it, the more he felt like he was having a cerebral hemorrhage.
He couldn't stay in this place that was full of shame for him.
He waved his sleeves suddenly, turned around and walked out of the room, his voice full of violence and said: "Palace Master Huang, let's go!"
Hall Master Huang responded and left quickly.
"Husband, I feel that Elder Zhao looked at you just now, as if he was full of murderous intent..."
Gu Xinyue said with some worry.
Chen An also felt it and knew the reason.
Because he had heard from Wen Zhiyun that Elder Zhao was Wen Zhiyun's suitor before.
Moreover, he can still be called a fanatical pursuer of dog licking.
"You don't have to worry about this. If you don't have anything to do, just leave it alone and do whatever you need to do."
Chen An said to the wives and concubines beside him.
The wives and concubines were very obedient. Gu Xinyue sent Song Huaying, who was asleep, back to her room, and Wen Zhiyun also sent Chen Yuejian in her arms.
Watching their departing figures, Chen An sat down in Wen Zhiyun's room and began to think about the possibility of defeating Elder Zhao.
poison?
