Chapter 163: Stone Breaks Shocking Heaven (1)
"Sir, the salt merchants will resume new salt supply today!" Huo Cheng reported word by word. "The price is normal, the maximum is not more than fifteen cents."
"Where is the bad guy who collected new salt for one hundred citations?" Liu Mo asked.
"It has not appeared again." Huo Cheng replied, "Sir, they should have received the news and hid for the time being."
Of course I know this, Liu Mo thought.
At the same time, it is also certain that Zhou Zhushan is definitely not the mastermind.
I was also locked up for three days. It is said that this guy was no longer in the mood to eat. He cried all day long and could only sleep on his stomach. Going to the cottage became an extremely painful thing.
When Liu Mo heard these news, he grinned and lost his anger.
You don’t have to be angry with such a fool. If he provokes me once, I will do it once. The power is in my hands and you can kill you at any time. Old Mrs. Zhou will be your death in a hundred years!
"Is there anything else? If you don't have my official position, go back first." Liu Mo got up, and he was already sitting with a sore waist and back pain all over.
"Sir, it's gone for the time being!" Huo Chengdao, "Great Sir!"
When I walked out of the gate of the Salt Transportation Bureau, it was already dark.
After working all night, his stomach was roaring. For this reason, Liu Mo took Zhao Da to the night market and found a noodle restaurant to sit down.
Without saying a word, the noodle restaurant owner brought two bowls of fried noodles, which were the midnight snacks they often ate recently. Lin Shiqi would arrange for her servants to deliver the dinner, but Liu Mo didn't have much time to eat.
"Zhao Da, have you done everything you asked?" Liu Mo asked while eating noodles.
"Don't worry, my son-in-law, I've chosen all the good guys myself, so smart!"
"That's good! I'll be relieved if you do things!"
Zhao Da smiled, "Son-in-law, there is a saying that you can't speak up." He asked in confusion, "Why do you even doubt her?"
"Don't ask too much about this matter, just do the job you have given you!"
"Okay!" Zhao Da frowned.
Soon, a tall, thin, and quick-moving middle-aged man came to Liu Mo and the others.
"I have met Lord Zhao and Lord Liu."
"No gift. Tell me, where did she go today?" Liu Mo asked.
"Stay at home all the time." The visitor replied.
Liu Mo's face darkened, "Has anyone ever seen her?"
"Yes!" The man stood up, leaned into Liu Mo's ear, and whispered his name.
When Liu Mo heard the name, his expression became very ugly. "I know, keep staring at me!"
After saying that, he put down a few copper plates and immediately stood up and took Zhao Da away.
When she got home, Liu Mo went straight into Gong Xiaorou's room, and it was her turn tonight.
I was fooled last time when I was playing, so I was in a state of discomfort. Naturally, the three-day appointment was not fulfilled.
Today, most of the time, I don’t have such an interest and have too many worries.
"Honey, is you back?" Gong Xiaorou didn't sleep and was waiting for him. "Why are you still depressed?"
"Yes." Liu Mo sighed, "I didn't catch anyone last time, and I was humiliated by the guy Zhou Zhushan."
"Hasn't he been messed up by you, your husband?" Gong Xiaorou smiled, "I heard that he was taken home today."
Liu Mo snorted coldly, "If everything goes well in the future, you can immediately fulfill your promise for your husband!" He said, and picked up Gong Xiaorou in the waist, "Let you enjoy the feeling of not getting out of bed once!"
"Ah? Don't!" Gong Xiaorou's face turned red, "Honey, have you received a clue again?"
"Well, this time, you're sure to win!" Liu Mo replied.
"I hope so, don't look at your bitter face all day long, I can't be happy either!"
Liu Mo smiled and the answer was revealed tomorrow night.
~~~
Liu Mo bent down, maintained balance, listened to his heartbeat, took deep breaths and breathed slowly. As quiet as a shadow, he told himself, as light as a feather.
Not far away, a young woman with a veil turned around with great alertness. She felt something seemed to be behind her, and her eyes were full of alertness.
It turns out that it is so difficult to follow a weak girl. Many times, if Zhao Da hadn't pulled him back to the corner in time, she would have been discovered by her.
In order to find out where the woman was going, Liu Mo took Zhao Da and seven or eight good men to follow him for two hours.
The woman was very alert. She first walked around the market, then walked along the river bank for an incense stick, then went to Blacksmith Street, and finally left the city.
After confirming that there was no one behind her, she walked forward again, walked into an abandoned house, passed through a hidden courtyard, walked around the corner, climbed over the wall, squeezed into a low and narrow window, and came to a dark cellar where she could not see her fingers.
"Zhao Da, wait a moment!" Liu Mo lowered his voice and grabbed Zhao Da who was about to catch up with him, "Be careful that she will find out!"
Liu Mo's guess was verified. After about half a stick of incense, she poked her head out of the cellar, looked around alertly, and finally got in again.
“Come on!”
So everyone hugged their bodies again and followed the woman into the cellar.
"Stir! So smelly!" This is Liu Mo's first impression of the cellar.
Everyone was enduring this weird stench, but no one spoke for it because they were afraid of exposing their whereabouts.
Walking along the way, in the darkness, Liu Mo could clearly hear his heartbeat and the sound of dripping water in the distance.
It was as quiet as a shadow, Zhao Da once told him.
Soon after, my eyes became accustomed to the darkness, and the room seemed to gradually light up, and things around me slowly appeared.
After about a stick of incense left, they caught up with the woman.
Not far away, the woman held the torch in her left hand and the door knocker on the wooden door with her right hand. She pulled it hard. The door resisted for a while before slowly opening inward, making a creaking sound.
She opened the gap that just happened to allow herself to get into, and then got into...
"Sir, what should I do?" Zhao Da asked softly.
Liu Mo fell into deep thought. The door had been closed. If he wanted to continue tracking, the sound of opening the door would definitely be discovered.
What's behind the door? A simple room, or...
"Go up and take a look!"
The order was issued, and everyone came to the wooden door. Through the crack of the door, they could see the flames inside.
She didn't continue to walk!!!
Liu Mo closed his eyes, calmed his breathing, and took a breath quietly.
"You guys are guarding the door, I'll go in alone!"
"What?" Zhao Da said in shock, "Son-in-law, you must not. I know if there are other people in the room!"
"I have decided, no need to say much," Liu Mo announced.
Zhao Da had no choice but to instruct his men to leave the gate and lie around.
Taking a deep breath, Liu Mo reached out and knocked on the door knocker...
Behind the wooden door, the woman was shocked when she heard the knock on the door.
Then there was deathly silence.
"Dongdongdongdongdong." Liu Mo knocked on the door knocker again.
"Who?" the woman asked in panic.
Liu Mo did not make a sound, but knocked on the door knocker. "Dongdongdongdongdongdong!"
The woman seemed to have thought of something and did not continue to ask.
A creaking sound came, and the wooden door slowly opened.
When the two sides looked at each other, "Husband...husband...husband!" the woman said tremblingly.
Chapter completed!
