Aunt Xu's eyes widened in surprise, "What? Is this cake really poisonous?"
Oh my God, who could have imagined this!
She looked at Liu Shengsheng with bright eyes, "I can't tell if it tastes weird or not. My family is not rich, and I haven't eaten any good pastries since I was a child. I feel that all the pastries taste the same. Okay. You can eat the bad ones as long as they are okay to eat.”
"This is not freshly made. The texture of freshly made food is different from this one. This one lasts for two months instead of three months. Even if it is not poisonous, you will get diarrhea if you eat too much."
Liu Shengsheng said, and put the pastry in his hand back into the box. He really didn't expect that this world also has technology and hard work. Perhaps it is because of the cold weather in winter that this thing can last for several months.
In the past, the pastries in Cangwangfu were all freshly made, and the taste was not the slightest bit different from this one.
Thinking about it, she asked again: "Do you still remember where you bought it?"
"Remember, I will take you there now."
Aunt Xu was in high spirits, as if she had done something important. She clapped her hands and led them out.
But when they came to the street, Aunt Xu couldn't find the previous stall. She scratched her head and said, "I remember it was here before. It's strange."
"Think again, are you sure this is the location?"
Yizhou couldn't help but ask.
Aunt Xu nodded, "That's it. I remember it clearly. I'm rarely greedy on weekdays. I saw it was selling cheaply, so I bought a box. At that time, many people bought it with me, including those patients before. , they all ate it, I remember it clearly!"
As she was talking, she seemed to see someone familiar, and she stepped forward and grabbed a passing lady, "Aunt Liu, didn't you buy the pastries from this place before? Do you know where they are now?"
Aunt Liu, Liu Shengsheng, had met her before, and she was one of them in the backyard before.
She looked around and said, "Isn't this stall set up everywhere? Yesterday, it was set up at the end of the street. Wasn't it at the south gate not long ago? You can go to more places and have a look."
"Hey, that old man is so old, why is he still messing around? He is always hurting people."
Aunt Xu complained.
Aunt Liu smiled and said, "What's going on? You're recovering from your illness, but you're hungry again?"
"Why are you so greedy? That bad old man who killed a thousand swords, his pastries are poisonous. Those who were infected with the plague before were poisoned after eating his food. Think about it carefully, did you also eat that? It didn’t take long for Pastry to get sick?”
Hearing Aunt Xu's words, Aunt Liu's face darkened, "Is there still such a thing? Oh, the man who killed a thousand swordsmen, let's go, let's find a few more people to catch him. If we catch him, we will make him pay!"
"It doesn't matter if it's money or not, the main thing is that we can't let him harm anyone anymore!"
As they spoke, the two of them had already gone in the other direction.
Liu Shengsheng and Yizhou followed the two of them. Yizhou couldn't help but said: "Girl, are you sure that pastry is poisonous? If the plague in our city is due to the poison of that pastry, what about other cities? It's impossible to have a little pastry. , it poisoned tens of thousands of people, right? Unless the poison in our city is not the same kind of plague that is prevalent outside, then that would make sense."
"Your guess is not unreasonable. It does not make sense that people in so many cities have been poisoned by cakes alone. So we need to check carefully and find the person selling the cakes first."
Yizhou nodded.
After that, they followed Aunt Xu to many places, but they never saw the person setting up the stall. Until the evening, when they were all out of breath from exhaustion, they never saw the stall.
Aunt Xu was very tired, "It seems that the old man is resting today. When we get back, let's find more people. Even if we can't find his stall, we have to find his home!"
"When I get back, I have to tell everyone carefully that I can't buy pastries casually anymore to prevent more people from being deceived!" Aunt Liu agreed.
It was almost dark, and Liu Shengsheng did not embarrass them, but just went home alone.
The people along the way were all talking about what happened at the gate of the city, and how brave and fearless Nan Muze was, but he withstood Yundu's attack in just half a day and repelled Yundu again.
Even Yizhou said: "If they weren't afraid that there was really a plague outside, with King Cang's ability, he could easily fight them back to Yundu by opening the city gate."
"Why do you trust him so much?" Liu Shengsheng asked.
Yizhou said: "It's not trust, it's facts. Haven't you heard about his heroic deeds in the past?"
Liu Shengsheng said as she walked: "I didn't pay much attention to his past."
Yizhou was surprised. Legend has it that Liu Shengsheng liked Nan Muze so much, so how could she not pay attention to his past?
He smiled and said: "The legendary God of War on the battlefield, who has never been defeated, how could he lose to Yundu? Girl, are you really not interested in him?"
"forget."
While speaking, Liu Shengsheng had already returned to the courtyard, "But looking at the current situation, the war should be over, and Jiangcheng will not be in danger."
"At least that's the case today."
"Then you go say hello to the Young City Master and ask them to send more people to find the person who sells that pastry."
Yizhou nodded, "Okay, I'll go now."
"..."
On the other side, the city lord's mansion.
Today's battle, although not very tragic, still left many people tired. However, in the evening, many soldiers returned to their houses to sleep.
Nan Muze was upset. He stood on the roof and looked at the street not far away, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xiao Jiang also jumped to the roof, "Master, it's cold up here, why don't you go back inside and rest?"
"The cool breeze is good."
Only by blowing the wind can people wake up.
He was afraid that he wouldn't be able to control himself and rushed over, and he was even more afraid that after being disturbed by him, she would leave him again...
Xiao Jiang clapped his hands, and soon two servants carried a guqin to the middle of the yard, "Sir, you like to listen to the guqin the most, why don't you find some luther players..."
"Need not."
Nan Muze jumped back into the yard with a light skill and landed next to the guqin. He reached out and brushed the strings, and a beautiful sound came from the piano.
Only then did Xiao Jiang return to his side. Seeing him sitting down to play the piano, Xiao Jiang breathed a sigh of relief.
At least there's not that much wind in the yard...
The beautiful sound of the piano soon spread throughout the yard, and the melodious sound even reached outside the yard.
It was a piece of music that no one had ever heard before. Xiao Jiang was fascinated by it and couldn't help but think of his childhood.
This song is really nostalgic.
Just when everyone was obsessed with the sound of the piano, a guard suddenly appeared outside the door.
Xiao Jiang glared at him, as if blaming him for disturbing him.
He didn't dare to make a sound, and waited until he finished playing a piece of music before kneeling on the ground and saying, "Your Highness, Prince Cang, there is a girl coming outside, saying she is your fellow countryman, and saying that you must know her, and insist on breaking in." Come to meet you..."
"Fellow?"
Xiao Jiang sneered, "Coming from the capital? As a relative of the emperor, as for a person appearing outside the city lord's palace? No one knows him yet?"
The guard said: "I don't believe it, but she said that she was from the same hometown as the piano player. She also said that she was very familiar with the song just now, and that the song came from her hometown. She said that as long as the piano player saw her, she would I understand everything..."
