"Trash, it's all trash, it's been three days, and I haven't even found a single person, what use does this king want you for!"
In the Palace of the King of Shu, the angry His Royal Highness the King of Shu turned the table again. At the first place, all the local officials in the Shu Prefecture lowered their heads and remained silent.
In the counties of Shuzhou, the fast-tracking yamen servants in the yamen, including Min Zhuang, and even the county lieutenant personally led people to patrol, but not to mention the Taoist nun and the county uncle of Chang'an, they didn't even see the shadow of those blue-clothed men and yellow-clothed men.
Finding two people in such a big place in Shuzhou is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is already the second day when the order is issued, maybe they have already escaped from Shuzhou by now, where to find someone!
"Continue to look for this king. If you want to see people, if you want to see people, if you want to see corpses!" King Shu gritted his teeth and said every word.
"Your officer obeys..."
A group of officials responded one after another, and walked out dejectedly.
Of course you have to look for it, even if you are pretending to look for it, otherwise the King of Shu will not be able to explain it here. After all, the officials of Shuzhou will still rely on him in the future...
In three days, the atmosphere in the counties of Shuzhou suddenly became tense.
Patrolling soldiers can be seen everywhere on the streets, and even in remote deserted villages, there are people who are constantly searching, especially for those strangers, the patrolling is extremely strict.
In Yongzhou City, a long-abandoned courtyard.
On the edge of the dry well in the courtyard, a hand suddenly stretched out.
The young man surnamed Fang crawled out of the dry well with difficulty, and lay down on the ground powerlessly.
Three days, three full days, not to mention eating, not even drinking saliva, even if the sealed acupoints have been untied by themselves, it is difficult to raise much strength at this moment.
"Wait, I'll go find the rope!" He said while lying on the mouth of the well, then turned around slowly, pushed open the courtyard door, and staggered to the outside.
Not long after, a young man in ragged clothes and dusty face stood in a daze on the street, looking at a noodle stall by the street, his throat couldn't help but move.
"well… "
The noodle stall owner sat on the steps, boredly looking at the crowd on the street, then at the empty noodle stall, and sighed leisurely.
"Snapped!"
The next moment, all his eyes were attracted by the ingot of silver on the table.
"Ten bowls of noodles!"
Seeing the young man on the opposite side staring at him firmly, the owner of the noodle stall couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Ten bowls?" He asked with some uncertainty.
"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up!"
Stared at by the young man with green eyes, the owner of the noodle stall shuddered, and immediately said: "Okay, okay, wait a moment, sir, the noodle will come right away."
"Guest officer, here we come!"
Soon, the stall owner brought up a bowl of noodles. Seeing that it was only a few breaths, the bowl was already empty, and his eyes widened involuntarily.
The young man surnamed Fang looked up, and said angrily: "What are you still doing in a daze! Have another bowl!"
"Hey, right now, right now!"
The owner of the noodle stall hurriedly moved his hands again, cast a glance at the young man, and cursed in his heart, "The noodles that just came out of the pot were eaten in one go, you were reincarnated from starvation in your previous life, why didn't you scald you to death..."
It wasn't until the young man had eaten five bowls that the boss had time to stop and wipe the sweat off his forehead. At this time, there were already many people around the noodle stall.
"Is it really so delicious?"
One person said something suspicious, sat down beside him, and said, "Give me a bowl too."
"Bah!" After a while, he took a sip, then spit it out, glanced at the young man, and cursed: "I can eat such unpalatable noodles. I thought it was delicious. I starved to death in my previous life." you!"
Throwing down two copper coins and turning around to leave, a voice came from behind.
"Hey, you haven't finished your noodles yet."
The man turned his head, looked at the young man, and said with a sneer, "I don't want to eat, can you control me!"
The young man glanced at him and stood up from his seat.
…
…
"Eat, I'll eat right away!"
The man with a bruised nose and a swollen face sat on the seat honestly, and ate up the bowl of noodles just now, leaving no mouthful of soup left. Under the persecution of the young man's eyes, he even refilled the bowl, and then asked in a trembling voice: " So, is this okay?"
"get out!"
The young man waved his hands impatiently, looked at the boss, and said, "Keep going!"
Half an hour later, the boss looked at the pile of bowls next to him in astonishment, worried that the speed could not keep up, and he added more weight to each bowl in the end. The young man ate ten bowls like this, and finally he was still standing next to him. The bun shop bought dozens of buns, and then left...
This kind of appetite, where is it human, this is simply a monster!
…
…
It is an undoubted fact that Qi State is the most powerful country on this land.
Even though they lost to Jing Guo in an important battle, and even two cities were taken away, the envoys of Qi State did not get any advantage in the competition with Jing Guo, but whether it is population or economy, or It is the military, and the strength of Qi State is much greater than that of other countries.
Fengzhou is not close to the capital of Qi State, and it can even be said to be remote. It is a three-day drive to the south, which is the boundary of Jing State.
However, although Fengzhou is remote, it is not poor. Even in the entire Qi State, it can be regarded as one of the richest state capitals.
At this moment, at the gate of Fengzhou City, two carriages drove in slowly.
The man was riding on the horse, looked back, and said, "Brother Li, we are just ahead."
"When you get home, I will arrange for you to stay in the guest room first, and after a few days, I will find a place for you to settle down." The big man said with a smile: "You are a scholar, if you don't mind, you can be an accountant for the family or something Yes, although the salary is not much, it is enough for the two of you to live in the future."
Li Yi arched his hands and said, "Thank you, Brother Lin."
The big man waved his hand and said, "Hey, you're welcome!"
Li Yi smiled slightly at him. This big man who had only known him for four days was very warm-hearted. Perhaps there was also a reason for "sharing hardships and difficulties", and he took good care of them along the way.
Including the man in front of him, and in the eyes of everyone accompanying him, he and Miss Liu Er are probably a pair of young men and women who eloped.
Li Yi didn't explain their cognition, so it saved a lot of trouble.
Second Miss Liu's injury will not heal in a short period of time, she needs to rest and rest, and it is not suitable to run around. Settling here temporarily is also a decision he made after weighing.
Although he didn't want to come to Qi State, he had no other choice in the situation a few days ago. Fortunately, here is not far from Shuzhou, and taking a carriage is only a three-day schedule. What he has to do now is to send a letter back to Yong County, the news from Goulan must be on the way now, and when it gets back to Kyoto, Ruyi and the others will make arrangements, and it will take at least two or three months to go back and forth.
During this period of time, it is also a good choice to stay in such a place that neither the King of Shu nor the Taoist nun can imagine to recuperate.
In the past few days, from the mouth of this big man, Li Yi also roughly understood what the situation of the "Lin family" he was talking about was.
The Lin family can only be regarded as a small business in this city, running a few jewelry stores, and occasionally doing some international business, and the girl named Lin Wanru seems to be the person in charge of the family business at present.
The Lin family's ability to hand over all the family business to such a young woman shows that her abilities should be extraordinary.
It's just unexpected that the woman looks weak and weak, she really doesn't look like someone with any means.
When the carriage reached a certain place, the big man pointed his finger and said, "The front is the shop at home. There is a small yard next to the shop. Sometimes when the shop is busy, the lady will live there. The lady just said, In the past two days, let someone tidy up that place, you stay here temporarily, and wait until you have other arrangements in the future."
After entering Fengzhou City, within a quarter of an hour, the Lin family arrived.
The carriage drove in through a side door, Li Yi supported Miss Liu Er, the big man led them to a wing room, and said: "You will live here for the next two days, do you need to say hello, wait until the yard is tidied up in two days Yes, move over there."
Li Yi walked into the room, looked around, turned around, and asked in astonishment, "Just this one?"
"Is there any problem?" The big man nodded and asked suspiciously.
Li Yi was startled, shook his head, and said, "No."
"What's the matter, remember to call me..." When the big man walked to the door, he turned around and said again.
After his figure disappeared, Li Yi helped Second Miss Liu to sit down by the bed, and said, "It's a matter of urgency, let's make do with it for two days..."
