As soon as the sky got dark, fog started to appear in Tangkou Town. There were not many people on the street now. The thin layer of fog seemed like a dream on the pillow of this town.
Two red lanterns were hung at the entrance of the county government office. From a distance, they looked like a pair of monster's moves.
Qin Feng and Lian Goupi rode on their horses, walking leisurely through the humid night in Tangkou Town, their thoughts soaked heavily.
Cheng Xiancheng's post would naturally not be given to an orphan and mute, so Wei Xi was given the task of investigating.
The three of them discussed it, entered the county government office, and went to the banquet. Qin Feng used the excuse of being drunk to meet up with Wei Xi, just in case Wei Xi encountered something and couldn't protect himself.
He said he was going to a banquet, but his mood was no different from attending a funeral.
If Cheng County Cheng was laid to rest, they might even be happier.
The two people arrived at the county government office in silence all the way. The two red lights became more and more eye-catching, shining on the two nurses who came to hold the reins as if they had wiped their faces with red paper.
The steward came over and clasped his hands, "The two immortal masters are finally here. The county magistrate has been waiting for you! Come with me quickly!"
To be honest, it was quite new. It was the first time I entered the county government office through the main entrance.
Wei Xi couldn't enjoy this freshness. She didn't dare to turn over from behind this time, after all, there was a scene in the afternoon. Fortunately, Wei Xi was a monk, and Qin Feng's horse was taught the tracking technique by her. When the location tracked by the magic weapon seemed to be unchanged, Wei Xi counted a hundred times in his mind, threw his flying claw and started to climb over the wall again.
There was no one in the stable, and the guards probably went to patrol elsewhere. Wei Xi put away his flying claws and started to feel inside.
In order to facilitate the transfer of officials in the State of Ju, when the county and government offices were built, the government offices and residences were built in one place, and some small courtyards were built around the county offices for the supporting officials to live. Therefore, the stables in the county government office are in the front yard, separated from the backyard where officials and their families live.
There were no strange white cloths in the front yard. Wei Xi breathed a sigh of relief and went as quickly as possible to find the group of barbarians hiding in the county government office.
In Wei Xi's arms, Ling Yin revealed the top of her furry head, and her claws were only grasping the hem of Wei Xi's clothes.
Probably because of its high functionality, there were no trees or flowers in the front yard to hide his whereabouts. Wei Xi could only be cautious and walked along the wall, for fear of being surrounded by guards and soldiers.
There were not many candles lit in the county government office, which was convenient for Wei Xi. The banquet hall was brightly lit, but Wei Xi did not dare to approach easily.
At the critical moment, Wei Xi used her little brain. Qin Feng once said that she saw barbarians in the nursing home, so she could keep an eye on the nursing home and the patrolling soldiers.
But not only is this risky, it will only work if you meet the right person.
Wei Xi marched decisively towards the latrine. There were three urgent situations, and no one could escape. Whether it was the nursing staff on duty or the barbarians hiding in the county government office, there was a possibility of running into them in the latrine.
To be honest, it's easy to find. There are only a few places that are definitely lit by candles, but the smell is far inferior to the kitchen.
On the way to the hut, Wei Xi avoided a team of patrolling guards. However, this team of guards was careless in their work. Wei Xi just stood motionless in the dark corner, and they did not come to check.
Wei Xi found the latrine without any danger. The county government is very particular about it. There are five or six latrines in a row and they have built sheds to separate them. Unfortunately, it's summer now, so the smell is a bit strong. It's also because there are many flowers with strong smells planted nearby. I want to cover up the smell, but when several smells are mixed together, Wei Xi feels that his Tianling Cap has been washed away. .
Wei Xi, who was dizzy, quickly entered a cubicle and waited, hoping to get out of this hellish place quickly.
Damn it, Wei Xi raised the triangle scarf under his eyes and thought, next time he will never do such a tiring and painful job again, even hooks and hooks are good, this kind of job is just right for him!
Wei Xi's eyes hurt from being smoked. Just as she was thinking about whether to give up this method, she heard several people shouting, and she hurried to listen.
"It's time to do it! It's time to do it! Grandma, I've been holding this pee for a long time!"
Wei Xi heard several people approaching, accompanied by the sound of swords clashing, and felt the compartment next to him being opened. Along with the sound of water flowing, someone said, "We are busy offering sacrifices to the river, why are we inviting people to dinner again?"
"It's said to be two immortal cultivators. They're not like those people who used knives to threaten and then left. It's really not possible to cut their necks and throw them in..."
Wei Xi felt relieved when he heard this. The sharp decline in the population of Tangkou Town mentioned by Sun Ji had something to do with Cheng County Cheng.
Before the man finished speaking, another one said in a more mature voice: "Young Master Hu Qin is drunk! It's not our turn to say anything to anyone the county magistrate invites to dinner!"
After saying this, the man fell silent. The first person to speak smoothed things over and said, "The captain is right. We just listen to the county magistrate. We will have our share of the gold every year!"
Wei Xi was quite sorry. These three people seemed to know more than the two people he had deceived. It was a pity that they all shut up now.
"Huh? Why don't you see the people from the caravan?"
"That man is also a sneaky man. Halfway through the patrol, he said he had a stomachache. He must have gone somewhere to hide."
Wei Xi's heart tightened, and the next second she heard the man laughing, "I saw him! He's squatting next to me!"
Wei Xi looked at his feet in horror, holding his breath and his mind racing, trying to think of a way to escape.
Fortunately, the man was really drunk and didn't notice that the ankles of an eleven-year-old girl in Weixi were different from those of those hill-like barbarians. The man knocked on the wall twice and said jokingly: "Brother, no When I saw you eating wine, I got into the pit and refused to come out!"
Wei Xi didn't dare to reply. She really didn't want to be caught in the latrine, but the man didn't want Wei Xi to answer. He fastened his belt and said, "Let's go first. Let's go back to the room." Wine, when you come out, go to our place, have a few bowls, and have a good chat!"
Hearing those people leave, Wei Xi breathed a sigh of relief. This time it was really sparse. There was no escape route hiding in a place like this, but it also gave her an opportunity to follow these people. If It would be best if the Hu people were together with them. If not, then it would be up to Qin Feng and the others.
Wei Xi hurriedly came out of the compartment, preparing to chase those people. The place was lush with plants, and if it was later, there would be no trace of those people.
At this time, the fog was getting heavier again. As soon as he left the toilet area, he could smell the unpleasant smell in the fog again. Wei Xi didn't want to think about what the smell was. After all, it was Cheng County Cheng's fault again.
Following those people, Wei Xi came to a courtyard, which was sandwiched between the front yard and the backyard. With its short courtyard walls, it looked like it should be for the county government's guards and soldiers.
Wei Xi didn't dare to go in arrogantly. Just when he was thinking of a way, he was hit on the shoulder and neck and fainted.
Yes, she is so unlucky.
