Under the moonlight, Chen Tang walked on the snow, walking faster and faster.
Even though the wind is biting, I don't feel cold at all.
Tiger milk and wild ginseng and monkey wine have made a huge difference to his physique!
Originally, he was a young man with ordinary qualifications and ordinary bones.
After more than two months of practice, it can be said that I have completely transformed!
Chen Tang didn't think much about the top-quality ginseng he sent out, mainly because there were many of them on the snow-capped mountains. He had Tianshen Monkey Wine and didn't like it anymore.
Furthermore, on the way down the mountain, although he was passive, he still took advantage of other girls.
Not long after, Chen Tang returned to Changze County.
It was the middle of the night and there were no pedestrians on the street. Occasionally, one or two white servants could be seen patrolling the night.
Chen Tang deliberately avoided these white servants to avoid being questioned, which would only cause more trouble.
Along the way, I saw no notice of pursuit.
The long night a month ago seemed to have passed without causing much trouble in Changze County.
After a while, Chen Tang returned to his home.
However, he did not go in rashly, but lingered nearby and looked around.
No abnormalities were found.
In the coldest month of winter, there was no smoke from the chimney at home.
It means no one is home.
It seems that the master and apprentice pair have left.
This was already expected by Chen Tang.
He stayed in the snow-capped mountains for a full month, who could spend more time than him?
Going down the mountain this time was a mistake.
He sent Li Junqing to the foot of the mountain, only a few miles away from home, and planned to come back and stay overnight.
Going to the Meihua Martial Arts School tomorrow to pay back Mei Yingxue's thirty taels of silver is a piece of cake.
Stop by the market to buy some salt and the like, and then go back to the snow mountain.
Chen Tang pushed open the door and entered the courtyard. He walked quietly to the house. He did not go in directly, but stayed at the door and listened carefully.
There really wasn't much movement inside.
At this point, Chen Tang felt relieved and pushed the door open.
When he opened the door, he saw the master and apprentice sitting at the table facing the door.
The fat old man looked at the door with a smile.
Qingmu held her chin in her palm, looking sleepy and blinking her sleepy eyes, like a little daughter-in-law waiting at home for her husband to return.
Chen Tang was dumbfounded.
what's the situation?
What do you mean?
Chen Tang held it in for a long time, pointed to the stove next to him, and said, "You, don't you feel cold if you stay in the house without lighting the stove?"
"so far so good."
The fat old man still smiled and looked very talkative.
"Brother, you have been hunting for so long. My sister is almost worried to death."
Qingmu said he was worried, but there was a bit of pride on his face that he had finally waited for you.
Chen Tang sneered in his heart.
It would be weird to believe you.
etc!
Chen Tang frowned and asked, "Who is the younger brother, and whose sister are you?"
"My name is Chen Qingmu, and I am your cousin."
Qingmu pointed at the fat old man and said, "Master, his name is Chen Shang, and he is your uncle."
Then Qingmu waved and said with a smile: "Come and see my cousin and pay my respects to your uncle."
real or fake?
Chen Tang was a little unsure due to the woman's confident tone.
After all, he had traveled through time, and his memories of his previous life were not complete.
Moreover, if it is really a relative from out of town, it is normal that he has never met his predecessor. I am afraid only Chen Daan knows about it.
The mountain guest once said, this fat old man will not harm me, is it because he is my uncle?
Chen Tang caught a glimpse of the cunning flash in Qing Mu's eyes and couldn't help but feel suspicious.
wrong.
There is no such coincidence in the world.
After killing someone that day, he bumped into two people and took him home. A month later, they became his uncle and cousin?
"Stop it."
Chen Tang entered the room and closed the door, ignoring the two of them. He went over to put some firewood in the stove and lit a fire.
Qingmu smiled and said: "If you don't believe me, you can go out and ask tomorrow, find the head catcher in Changze County, or go to the Miss Mei family."
Chen Tang became more and more disbelieving, but knew that there must be something fishy about this matter.
"What's going on? Tell me."
Chen Tang came to the table and sat down.
The fat old man said: "A few days after you left, a police officer from the county came to your door."
"Which police officer is here to investigate the case that night?"
Chen Tang asked with a frown.
He did a fairly clean job that day, but he didn't expect that a police officer from Changze County would come to his door so soon.
Logically speaking, suspicion should not be cast on him.
"The surname is Meng."
Qing Mu said: "Don't worry, no one will doubt you. The case that night has long been settled."
"He just came to comfort the people in the county. When he came here, Master was worried about causing trouble, so I made up an identity and said that we were your relatives out of town. We had just entered the city not long ago."
Chen Tang curled his lips and said, "Did Mr. Meng believe it so easily?"
In the Qian Kingdom, civilians must follow the roads to guide them when traveling. Anyone who violates this rule will be arrested and punished according to the law.
It's like the fat old man's master and his apprentice came from out of town. It's okay if no one checks them. If they are found, it will cause a lot of trouble.
Qingmu smiled and said: "Master is a veteran of the world. It's not easy to be a false guide."
"and after?"
Chen Tang asked: "Didn't Mr. Meng ask about the case that night?"
"No."
Qing Mu said: "Send him away in a few words."
The fat old man suddenly said: "Captain Meng is not a simple man. Although he didn't mention a word about the case, his visit was indeed meant to test him."
Chen Tang pondered for a moment, then looked at Qingmu and asked, "Why did you mention Miss Mei just now?"
Logically speaking, they should have nothing to do with Mei Yingxue.
Qingmu smiled slightly and said: "This month you were away, Miss Mei came here several times to inquire about your news."
"oh?"
Chen Tang was slightly surprised.
Then he changed his mind and realized that he owed someone thirty taels of silver, and then disappeared.
Anyone else would have to worry about him running away in debt.
"What is your relationship with this young lady from the Mei family?"
Qingmu's eyes were burning with the soul of gossip, and he asked curiously: "You have known each other for a long time, and you love each other? Is it just because of the gap in family background that you can't be together?"
This is such a ridiculous joke.
Chen Tang smiled helplessly and said, "Because I owe people money, she is afraid that I will run away!"
"wrong."
Qingmu shook his head and said: "If you want a debt, just send a domestic servant to the door. Why come in person every time?"
"Moreover, when she asked about you, she was obviously more worried about your safety. She also asked us which mountain you went to hunt."
Chen Tang said: "This is natural. If I die, my thirty taels of silver will not come back."
"certainly not."
Qingmu said: "That young lady from the Mei family never mentioned repaying the money when she came here. If you don't believe me, ask Master."
The fat old man nodded.
Qingmu said: "Brother, you must not let down such a good girl."
Where is this?
Chen Tang knew Qingmu was making fun of him, so he didn't answer.
I happen to be going to the Meihua Martial Arts School tomorrow to pay back the thirty taels of silver. If I see Mei Yingxue, I'll tell you as soon as I ask.
"What's the matter, how long do you two plan to stay here?"
Chen Tang looked at the fat old man and Qing Mu and asked straight to the point.
"Oh, I can't bear to accept old age. I'm too old to stay up late."
The fat old man sighed, pretended not to hear, turned around and entered the back room.
Qingmu blinked and said: "Brother, have a good night, sister, go to bed first."
After saying that, he turned around and entered the house, leaving him with a graceful figure from behind.
Chen Tang didn't care.
Just stay here for one night, pay the money tomorrow, and go to the snow mountain.
