The paper money smells like pine.
"No, this is not from the South. This is something exclusive to the North. It must have come from the North."
Xu Yunyan didn't pay attention to Yue'er's exaggerated expression and bizarre movements, but instead just said this directly.
Yue'er was very surprised.
"Since you're not from here, but from the north, why don't you... wait, you said you're from the north?"
"Yes, there is a smell of pine on this paper money. You should know that in the south, there is no unique smell of red pine in the north. This comes from the north, and it is quite north.
But why would someone from the north come to us and use such a thing? Could it be that something happened to the relatives and friends we met in the north?
But it’s not right. If something happened to a relative or friend we know, they should be waiting for us at the door, or leave a message directly. How could they leave so casually? It doesn’t make sense, it really doesn’t make sense! "
Xu Yunyan asked and answered questions here, repeatedly raising questions and then overturning them here, leaving Yue'er and Liu Qiang looking at each other.
Xu Yunyan is Xu Yunyan, and his brain is so flexible. Although the two of them were a little unable to react when Xu Yunyan made speculations here, they felt that what Xu Yunyan said was very reasonable, and it was indeed possible. Liu Qiang suddenly said something.
"Why don't I go to the incense shop tomorrow to check and see if there is any paper money like this in the incense shop. If there is really some paper money like this left here, it means it was not sent by someone we know from the north."
When Liu Qiang said this, Xu Yunyan nodded hurriedly, "Yes, Brother Liu is exactly what he said. We still need to find out where this paper money came from first? It's better to deal with it. We can't just think that this is our money in the north." It was brought by relatives and friends. Although we don’t hope that they will be able to get rich and live a happy and healthy life, we can’t hope that they will use this thing to tell us that something happened to them.”
Although what Xu Yunyan said was a bit sorry for his friend, it was the best result now.
However, Yue'er turned her head and looked outside the yard, "Why are you waiting for tomorrow? It's not dark today, why don't you just go out and ask now?"
When this Yue'er said this, Xu Yunyan and Liu Qiang scratched their heads in embarrassment.
"Yeah, you see it's still early outside, why are we worrying about these things here instead of going out to ask?
Why don't we go to the incense shop in the city and ask, maybe we will get some unexpected results? "
After Liu Qiang said this, Xu Yunyan nodded his head.
"Okay, please ask Brother Liu to go out with me. Let the Zhechong soldiers outside the house take care of us in this courtyard. We can't be easily lured away by these evil people. I'm not afraid of other things, I'm just afraid of someone who wants to target me. Wait." After Xu Yunyan said this, he couldn't help but think of the elite Xuanwu Gate defenders he had trained and the intelligence agency he had established under Pei Ji.
"Should I communicate with them and see what they noticed that I didn't pay attention to?"
After having such an idea, Xu Yunyan walked out of General Zhongwu's mansion, waved his hand to stop the many soldiers who wanted to follow him around, looked at Zhang Liang and said.
"Zhang Liang, you should keep an eye on the mansion here. I'm afraid someone will target me."
After he said this, Zhang Liang was shocked: "General, since you know that someone is targeting you, you have to let people follow you. Ding Xiu, Ding Shen, you two follow the general, Ding Yang, hurry up and go to Zhechong Mansion." Send some more people over to protect us."
Following Zhang Liang's arrangement, Ding Xiu and Ding Shen hurriedly clasped their fists in response. Ding Yang also quickly ran towards Zhechong Mansion next to him, while Xu Yunyan waved his hand.
"Come back soon."
When Ding Yang was confused, Xu Yunyan looked at him.
"Ding Yang, don't bluff here, I will send some people secretly.
If you are prepared, their tricks will not be exposed. "
Ding Yang looked at Zhang Liang embarrassedly when he heard this, and Zhang Liang looked at him and nodded.
"Okay, then just listen to the general."

Chapter 546 Clues
After Ding Xiu, Ding Shen, and Ding Yang and Ding Xing followed Zhang Liang to guard the gate of Zhechong Mansion, Xu Yunyan quickly turned around the corner and found a hidden place. Xu Yunyan quickly drew a few symbols on the wall and sighed. Take a breath.
Liu Qiang hurriedly came closer, "General, if you have any questions, just tell us, and we will deal with it together with you. Don't dare to sulk alone here."
Liu Qiang was worried about Xu Yunyan's current appearance, but Xu Yunyan smiled and shook his head.
"Brother Liu, don't worry, how can something happen to me? I was just thinking here whether there are too few people left in the mansion, or else when Brother Liu goes to the next corner, everything will be based on my eyes."
"ah?"
This time, Liu Qiang was confused.
Do you act based on your looks? How do I look at your eyes? How can your eyes tell me how to act?
Seeing that Liu Qiang would definitely be full of questions if he changed his painting style, Xu Yunyan sighed.
Liu Qiang still had too little contact with him, and in many cases things were not as clear as he thought.
Then Xu Yunyan patted him on the shoulder helplessly and whispered in his ear. After walking through a few street corners, there were only three people left in the group of four.
Not long after leaving, Ding Xiu and Ding Shen pointed to an incense shop not far ahead and said to Xu Yunyan.
"Sir, the one in front is the only incense shop in Qiongzhou City. All the household items are purchased from him. How about we go and ask?"
"I definitely have to ask, but I can't ask so openly. We should focus on a strategy."
"Do you need to be strategic when asking a question?"
This makes Ding Xiu and Ding Shen a little confused, but Xu Yunyan will do whatever he arranges. Who makes Xu Yunyan their backbone?
When Ding Xiu and Ding Shen were hiding nearby, waiting for instructions from Xu Yunyan at any time, Xu Yunyan quickly took a step forward, distanced himself from them, and looked around to see that there was no one who could see the glare on his face. After confirming the safety, my people quickly entered the incense shop which was not far away from me.
After coming in again, the sun was probably going down and the light was a little dark. As soon as Xu Yunyan came in, he felt that the incense shop was eerie and eerie, and the strange smell made him feel ashamed.
However, the elites of this later generation were the elites, and they quickly adapted to the light in the incense shop and clearly saw the shape of the incense shop.
Behind an old-fashioned container were shelves. The shelves were full of sacrificial items that showed respect for the deceased. Next to the container was an old man in his sixties. He saw Xu Yunyan coming in and asked immediately.
"What does this guest want to bring? Is it a relative, a good friend, or an elder?"
After he asked this question, Xu Yunyan hurriedly took out a piece of paper money from his arms.
Before Xu Yunyan could say anything, the old man nodded hurriedly.
"I understand, I understand, I wonder how much this young master needs? What festival is it for?"
Xu Yunyan was stuck again. Do I need to distinguish between festivals, time, place, and people to buy this thing?
Just when Xu Yunyan looked at the old man in confusion, the old man smiled.
"It seems that this is the first time that the young master comes to buy this thing."
Immediately, the shop owner came here and explained to Xu Yunyan the precautions for purchasing these items.
Finally, after this guy said something, Xu Yunyan looked at him.
"I hope my father-in-law can give me some. Let me see if it is the same as what I have in my hand."
The owner of the incense shop was quite different: "This is interesting. You come to me with a piece of paper money to buy. Isn't the paper money in my hand smaller than the one in your hand?"
Although he said this, he still gave Xu Yunyan a handful of paper money on the counter, and Xu Yunyan hurriedly took it and looked at it.
The size is the same, but it doesn't have the greasy feeling, and it doesn't have the smell of pine wood.
"Interesting. Could it be that he really came from the north? It's impossible for him to be with me for no reason."
