After sending Liao Tixue away, Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer looked at each other and both understood that Liao Tixue's words just now were not only a reminder to them that the Marquis of Dongchuan was very powerful and powerful, and they should not act rashly without evidence, but also Insinuating that they 'call the parents'.
Qin Qiaoer did not hesitate and whispered immediately: "I will write a letter right away and inform Master of the clues and guesses we have so far, and ask him to come over."
Qin Shaoyou reminded: "The Marquis of Dongchuan sent people to monitor us secretly, be careful not to be discovered."
Qin Qiaoer is confident about this: "Don't worry, I have the means and I will definitely not be discovered."
"That's good."
Qin Shaoyou still trusts his sixth sister's abilities. She carries no fewer supernatural items than he does.
After some consideration, Qin Shaoyou also planned to sway him.
"Sixth sister, after collecting the scene, you can take people back to the inn first. When I come back, we can go visit Prince Dongchuan together."
"Where are you going?" Qin Qiaoer asked.
"Go to the City God's Temple and the Confucian Temple to burn incense." Qin Shaoyou said, "I'm afraid Commander Qi has left Yizhou. Even if he receives the letter and rushes here non-stop, it will take some time. During this time, I have to find a few helpers. Come to help and nip the trouble before it happens. By the way, I will buy a pot of chrysanthemums for Prince Dongchuan and visit the patients. How can I not bring some gifts?"
Qin Qiaoer thought about it and felt that Qin Shaoyou's prepared arrangements were indeed necessary, so she nodded in agreement and warned, "Okay, be careful."
After saying goodbye to Sixth Sister, Qin Shaoyou went straight out of the prison.
At this time, the prisoners and guards in the prison were either being interrogated by the red-clad messengers, or were in a state of panic. No one noticed Qin Shaoyou leaving, and no one came to stop him.
However, after Qin Shaoyou got out of the prison, he immediately found someone following him secretly, and there was more than one.
It was not difficult for Qin Shaoyou to get rid of these people, but he did not do that. Instead, he pretended not to know that there were people following him, and went all the way to the City God's Temple in the north of the city.
Along the way, Qin Shaoyou was interrogated by several groups of soldiers.
It seems that Marquis Dongchuan responded very quickly, and the sergeants in the city were not slow in executing the orders.
Although these soldiers did not make things difficult for Qin Shaoyou, they turned over the token of his red-clad messenger and asked him where he was going before letting him go.
The Chenghuang Temple in Qingtangwei is larger than that in Mianyuan County, and it is also very popular.
After all, the war is now renewed, and those who remain in the city want to worship gods in many ways for peace.
And with the war, countless people died, and the number of innocent ghosts naturally increased.
In this case, it is even more important to pay homage to the City God. If you are really hit by an evil spirit, you can also ask the City God for help.
It's a pity that although this City God's Temple is large in scale, it only has one clay statue and no real god.
Fortunately, what Qin Shaoyou is looking for is not the City God here.
He walked straight into the temple, came to the main hall, lit three incense sticks, and bowed to the City God.
Unlike the people around him who were praying to God and chanting "City God bless you," he said in a very small voice: "Lao Cai, come and help."
When leaving Mianyuan County, Cai Guizhong once told Qin Shaoyou that if he needed help, he only needed to go to the nearby Chenghuang Temple, light three incense sticks and say hello.
Qin Shaoyou now wants to summon Cai Guizhong and the evil spirits under him.
In terms of investigating intelligence, ghosts and ghosts are still very useful. Not to mention, Qin Shaoyou still suspected that the 'see you tomorrow' monk wanted to use the souls of the dead here to cause trouble. Cai Guizhong and the others came over, and they happened to be professional counterparts, so they could check the situation easily.
After greeting him, Qin Shaoyou inserted three sticks of incense into the incense burner, turned around and left the City God's Temple, walking towards the Confucian Temple without stopping for a moment.
As soon as he left, Ye Busuo, who was being followed, entered the City God's Temple.
I didn't collect them this night. I first checked the three incense sticks and made sure there were no problems. Then I checked the people who had just burned incense in the hall. Finally, I hid in the dark to see if anyone would come over to join me.
He stayed away for the other few nights and continued to follow Qin Shaoyou to the Confucian Temple.
The incense here in the Confucian Temple is not as good as that in the Chenghuang Temple.
After all, most of the scholars in the city, except for those brought by Liao Tixue to assist in the war, almost ran away when the war first started. There were only a few left who were either too anxious to read or were following Liao Tixue and others to help the border troops fight against the Qingtang barbarians. They had neither the mood nor the time to come to pay homage to Confucius.
Qin Shaoyou entered the Confucian Temple and first put a stick of incense on the statue of the Holy Master, and then worshiped the statues of the Ten Philosophers on the left and right sides, but did not leave any written letters.
If Liao Tixue helped him, he would ask him to leave a message in the Confucian Temple. But when Qin Shaoyou arrived at the Confucian Temple, he found that there was no one here at all, so this message must have been left for these statues of sages.
I just don’t know which one of them is Xue Xiaobao’s senior brother?
After leaving the Confucian Temple, Qin Shaoyou returned to the inn with a group of confused tails and found He Crab in the house.
This guy put himself in a large basin, entered hibernation in advance, shrank his eyes, and blew a big bubble out of his mouth.
Qin Shaoyou popped its bubbles and kicked it awake.
"Don't sleep. Go back and send a message to your Uncle Shui, asking him to come over quickly. There are opportunities to make meritorious deeds here. If you do it well, maybe he will be able to control a few more rivers, and his authority will also increase accordingly. "
When the river crab heard this, he immediately struggled to climb out of the basin.
As a result, it was easy to get into the basin but difficult to climb out. It was stuck in it, just like a hermit crab.
However, the hermit crab was carrying its own house on its back, while the river crab was stuck in the basin. Finally, it used pliers to crush the wooden plate, and then it crawled out, quickly ran out of the house, jumped into the well and disappeared. not see.
Fortunately, the well in this courtyard has a relatively wide mouth, otherwise it would have to be stuck. Even if the well mouth could be widened, it would definitely arouse the suspicion of Dongchuan Hou's people.
After doing this, Qin Shaoyou and Qin Qiaoer went to the Hou Mansion.
Cui Youyou, Su Tingyu and others, together with a group of red-clad envoys, although they did not follow them openly, they all changed their appearance and clothes, and after leaving some human skin puppets to fool Ye Bushou, who was watching, they sneaked out quietly. The inns are scattered around the Hou Mansion, so that if something happens, they can respond in time.
Those human-skin puppets can become indistinguishable from real people after being inflated. The disadvantage is that they cannot move.
However, this shortcoming no longer exists after adding Qiu Shi's Gu insects.
Qiu Shi's Gu insects can hide on human skin puppets and control them to perform some simple actions. Combined with several magic circles set up in the yard early, it couldn't be easier to deceive Ye Bushou who is watching.
Just when Qin Shaoyou and the others went to the Hou Mansion, Dongchuan Hou was training his son in the manor.
"You're still a scholar, don't you know that a gentleman doesn't stand behind a dangerous wall? When you see Zhang Hu, Zhao Long and Wang Han transforming into corpses, you should be on guard. Even if you want to examine the three corpses, you have to be careful. It's time to let others go and stay away. It's better for you to kick the corpse's head. Is it really the old man who took arsenic and thought he would live longer?"
Dongchuan Hou Shizi was lying on the bed, his consciousness had returned to normal, but he looked very weak. And the leg he was bitten on was completely disabled.
