Chapter 3 Speculation

In the past, when it was time to pay the salary, everyone was very excited. Naturally, there was no need to mention the gold and silver I gave, and it must be kept for daily use.

But the spirit stones they emit are their most precious things. Spirit stones can not only be used for practice, but also for gold and silver.

But how precious is the spirit stone?

It is easy to exchange spirit stones for gold and silver, but when you want to exchange them for them, it is not that easy.

These ninth-grade immortal officials have only one spirit stone in total in a month. They are not enough to practice themselves, so they are absolutely reluctant to exchange it for gold and silver.

Even the immortal officials who are like Zhao Cheng who are already old and are almost impossible to break through in this life will no longer waste spirit stones to practice, they will carefully save the spirit stones.

In the past, when it was time to receive a salary, everyone was thinking about it, and they just wanted to get the spirit stones back and hide them or practice quickly.

But today, if it weren't for the full reminder, even Zhao Chengdu forgot that today was the day to receive his salary.

"This may be the last time we receive our salary."

Zhao Cheng looked at the spirit stone in his hand, and was not as happy as he used to get the spirit stone, and his face was still depressed.

"Don't worry, the case will definitely be solved."

Although Su An was curious about the spirit stone, he could not show it too clearly at this time. Instead, he put his backhand into his sleeve and patted Zhao Cheng's shoulder to comfort him.

After receiving the salary, he stayed in the yamen for a while. When it was time to release the yamen, Su An and other immortal officials who had not arranged to be on duty tonight left the yamen.

It was already evening, and the scorching sun set westward, and there were a few more breezes in Gui'an County, blowing away the heat during the day.

There were obviously more pedestrians on the street than during the day, and there were constant shouts, and even some fortune tellers set up stalls and fortune tellers. At this time, a broken table was set up in the corner of the street, and a cloth banner that could do everything in the world was supported behind.

"Brother Su is back from the yamen."

"Brother Su looks good."

As Su An stepped into the south of the city, not far from his residence, many neighbors greeted Su An.

Although Su An was an immortal official, his predecessor never took airs and his relationship with these neighbors was still very harmonious.

"Brother Su, is there any evidence in the case?"

Even a brave old man pulled Su An to inquire about the case of the baby's loss.

"It's soon, it's soon."

Su An squeezed a smile from the corner of his mouth, and apart from that, he didn't know how to answer.

"It's good if it's soon, it's good if it's soon."

When the old man heard this, his wrinkled face was full of smiles and walked tremblingly under a big tree not far away.

"The case of the baby being stolen is almost solved."

The old man was very proud to speak to the old guys under the big tree: "This is what Brother Gangsu said."

"Brother Su is me..."

It happened to be in front of the house. Su An, who was about to enter the door, smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly, not knowing what to say.

When he opened the copper lock on the courtyard door and raised his legs to enter, Su An looked at the right position again. That position was the abandoned house they were searching for today, only two families were separated from his house.

Su An's residence is a small courtyard, but there is also a kitchen and thatched cottage including a side room. Although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs.

Even in the windows of the side room, there is a big willow tree of unknown years, with willow branches hanging down, even in this unbearable weather, it can give you a little more shade.

Under the willow tree is a stone table with three stone piers next to it. If you sit on this stone piers and drink a few sips of wine in your spare time, it will be very pleasant.

However, Su An didn't have the intention now. He was so hungry that he was screaming. It was the main thing to make some food to worship the Five Insect Temples.

In the kitchen, there are all kinds of pots, pans and pans, and there is even a large wooden bucket. The half bucket of water inside was still shot out by Su An from the well outside before leaving this morning.

He took some dry firewood and put it in the stove. Then, Su An set up only half of the fire stick left and removed the buckle on the top of the fire stick.

"call."

Su An blew a light breath at the fire pie with a little nervousness, and a faint flame ignited in the wind.

Seeing the fire lights coming out of the fire note, Su An felt relieved.

A few days ago, when his soul came through, this small fire note made him embarrassed for a long time.

The wind blowing was too small, and the fire broker would not burn. The wind was too strong, and it would be extinguished without waiting for the fire to ignite. This fire broker alone had tormented him for a long time.

After lit the dry firewood with a fire broker, Su An quickly placed the pot on the stove, and hurriedly scooped a scoop of water from the bucket and poured it into the pot.

Then I washed rice and added firewood. After a long time of struggle, I could smell the fragrant smell.

As for the side dishes for the evening, Su An directly cut a piece of meat from an unknown animal hanging in the kitchen.

Unfortunately, there are not many kinds of seasonings in the kitchen, and even Su An can't tell what these seasonings are until today.

But he also tasted it one by one, some of which were salty, some of which were spicy, and even some of which were bitter.

In addition to the bitter seasoning, Su An poured some other seasonings into the pot, then put more dry firewood, and then kept turning over dishes with a wooden board.

As the smell of batter rose, Su An, who was covered with ashes of firewood everywhere, finally prepared the meal tonight.

After serving the porridge overnight and pulling the vegetables on the plate, Su An simply sat next to the stone table in the yard, eating the fragrant meat, drinking the porridge, and enjoying the moonlight.

"This meat is so fragrant, so let it be eaten after it gets hot tomorrow."

After ate two more bites of meat, Su An smacked his tongue and couldn't bear to put the chopsticks anymore. He simply drank the porridge in the bowl, washed the dishes and went back to sleep.

As soon as he was lying on the bed, the ancient book that appeared in Su An's mind during the day appeared again, and the handwriting on it was still extremely clear.

Su An took this opportunity to carefully study the mysterious ancient books in his mind.

In his opinion, this ancient book may have a great relationship with his ability to travel through time.

Unfortunately, no matter how he studied it, he read all kinds of words in his mind, but there was no reaction to the ancient book.

"Is it possible that this ancient book can only help investigate the case and provide clues?"

Su An had some speculation in his mind, but he didn't dare to be too sure. After all, when he was about to come out of the abandoned house today, the ancient book in his mind was only displayed in handwriting.

"If this ancient book reminder is really a clue to the case."

Su An tossed and turned in the bed, feeling upset and couldn't sleep at all.
