Volume 1 Chapter 240 The Outsider
Not to mention that Liu Suiyun and Gu Shanhe had ugly faces, they were all at the table of Linggu Supervisor, and they all looked at each other.
Earlier, Liu Suiyun angrily asked where it was most convenient, and let Geng Yangze specify the specific range, Geng Yangze pointed to a seven-return town, Liu Suiyun also generously said that he would go again tomorrow, leaving a whole day, and the result was good, and the granary of the Taoist soldiers in Qihui Town was burned clean with a fire here.
Geng Yangze's face was even more gloomy, the Dao Bing Grain Depot in the Seven Returns Town was personally designated by him to Liu Suiyun, but before he finished speaking, the granary had already passed the fire, which was not only a matter of slapping his face in the face, but he didn't take the pilgrimage envoy in his eyes at all.
Everyone focused their eyes on him, thinking that he had set this fire, but he had no problem with this matter, so he could only ask the monk who came to report the news: "Zhang Laosan, what's the matter? How much spiritual food was burned?"
Zhang Laosan saw that there were guests present, and immediately bent down: "Old Gu Supervisor, seniors, there are a total of seventeen stone Dao soldiers who have passed the fire, and the loss is not small!"
Liu Suiyun couldn't help but snort coldly, this third man really thought that he was so foolish, and the spiritual food of Dao soldiers was not a rare thing, the fact was that the worldly top food harvested in the spiritual field, the seventeen stone Dao soldiers' spiritual food, he could suppress it in the seventh town, why bother to come to Geng Yangze in a hurry.
Geng Yangze also heard Liu Suiyun's cold snort, he knew that Liu Suiyun must have been dissatisfied with such a thing, and he immediately tried to redeem it: "Zhang Laosan, this is Liu Suiyun's Liu Touring Envoy, our Celestial Envoy sent by Shenxiao Mountain, just tell the truth!"
Zhang Laosan breathed a sigh of relief, and said before he had time to wipe his sweat: "There are a total of eight thousand seven hundred stone spiritual food......
Before he finished speaking, Geng Yangze had already slapped the table and shouted: "Zhang Laosan, I told you to tell the truth! ”
If the number in front is too small, then the number behind it is inevitably too big, 8,700 stone Dao soldier spirit food, and the entire Qihui Town Grain Storage is only 10,000 stones, and it is stored in several locations, how can it be burned all in one go.
Zhang Laosan said embarrassedly: "There are a total of more than 600 stone Dao soldiers who have passed the fire, the reason why I say this is because Deacon Sun usually has some unclear accounts, and he wants to use this fire to smooth out the accounts, and ask me to report a few more pilgrimages when I report losses, so that the adults will have a lot of money, and don't worry about the villains." ”
Liu Suiyun didn't have the will to deal with Zhang Laosan, he just looked at Geng Yangze with some suspicion, according to Zhang Laosan's words, could this fire really come from Geng Yangze's instructions?
Geng Yangze also knew that Liu Suiyun must have muttered a little in his heart, he had to bow his hand to a table of people, and then said: "Pilgrimage envoy, Senior Brother Gu, this fire has nothing to do with me Geng Yangze, Lao Geng is here to vouch for the two of them with his personality, and it is pure coincidence to invite the two of them to go back to the town for the seventh time......"
He had to be glad that this fire came earlier, if Liu Suiyun and Gu Shanhe made a special trip to Qihui Town, there was only a blackened granary in front of him, and he couldn't tell if he had a thousand mouths
Then, his eyes became fierce, and he asked the four powerful people of the Spirit Valley Supervisor present: "The Lord of the Pilgrimage is his own person, there is nothing that cannot be said, let me ask you, you give me an honest explanation, does this fire have anything to do with you!"
Out of Geng Yangze's surprise, the four colleagues who were very well-mannered said with surprise on their faces and in unison: "It has nothing to do with it!"
Is this purely a coincidence? It should also be that there are people inside the Linggu Prison who want to make themselves look good, and the front foot of the patrol salute has just arrived at the broken back mountain, and the back foot is on fire, and what is even more coincidental is that he thinks that the problem of Qihui Town is not big, so he specially recommended Liu Suiyun and Gu Shanhe to go to Qihui Town for a trip, but as soon as he finished speaking, Qihui Town was already on fire, which was simply a slap in the face.
Liu Suiyun stood up, he said: "I believe that this matter has nothing to do with you, if Geng Gu Jian had the heart to set this fire, how could he recommend me to go to Qihui Town, but I, as a pilgrimage envoy, had to go to Qihui Town!"
More than 600 Shidao soldiers' spiritual food is not a large amount, with the relationship between Geng Yangze and Qianyan Zhenren, a trip to Shenxiao Peak can smooth out the accounts, but since there is such an incident on the way to the pilgrimage, he is not allowed to go back to the town seven times, at least to find out a responsibility problem, and he can't sit idly by.
Geng Yangze smiled bitterly, a quarter of an hour ago, he thought that this tour could be easily dealt with, but this fire made him not know how much effort he had to take, at least he had to prepare a few more fifteen or sixteen-year-old baby cabbage for the young pilgrimage, and a few Kansai big men singing the great river to the east for Gu Shanhe.
Standing in the scorched black Spirit Valley, Gu Shanhe took the accounts, bent down to investigate, and even copied a handful of Spirit Valley from time to time: "Six hundred and fifty-four stones, the number should be about ......."
The matter of checking the accounts is naturally impossible to hand over to Liu Suiyun, the envoy of the pilgrimage, to experience it personally, and Gu Shanhe really deserves to be a secret spy, and it didn't take much effort to figure out the details: "The loss is really not a big difference, but how did this fire start?"
How did the fire start? If Geng Yangze usually shirked his responsibility as soon as possible, this time he had to remove the suspicion of arson from the ground first: "Deacon Sun, what's going on? How did the fire start?"
Deacon Sun has been burned by this fire, trembling, knowing that Lu Dao can't escape this difficulty, it took a while to react: "It was Xiong Feihong who set the fire, this guy was extremely vicious last night with a fire sickle, torches, and fire oil and lit three fire heads, and burned three spirit barns, but fortunately it was found in time, and it was not all overfired, only more than 600 stones were burned." ”
This is not an accidental story, but someone deliberately set the fire, Liu Suiyun asked for the first time: "Why did you report it now?" Qihui Peak is not far from Duanyue Mountain, who is this Xiong Feihong?"
Geng Yangze asked sternly beside him, "Deacon Sun, who is Xiong Feihong? How did he sneak into the Spirit Granary? What happened last night, why did he report it now?"
Although it is said that this Dao soldier grain depot only stores some low-quality Dao soldier spiritual food, but there are also monks in the late stage of Qi refining, fifty or sixty heavily armed warriors patrol day and night, bows, crossbows, armor, and hard shields are very complete, as long as there is preparation, it is a quasi-foundation building period of monks to attack, and it can resist for half a day, how did this Xiong Feihong run in?
Deacon Sun immediately replied: "This Xiong Feihong is the Kuding of the library, he has been in the library for 12 years, he has always been in peace, honest, who expected that he would go crazy last night, and secretly brought in the oil, torches, and fire sickles......
As for the reason why it was reported now, Deacon Sun couldn't help but cry: "At that time, I was in a hurry to extinguish the fire, and I didn't send someone to rush to Broken Yue Mountain to inform me, but I didn't expect that after the most counting, there were 650 stones of good spiritual food that had passed the fire, and it was impossible to eat at all!"
Although the value of the Dao Soldier Spiritual Food is not high, but six hundred and fifty stones is nearly eighty thousand, even if it is the most inferior Dao Soldier Spiritual Food, it will cost nearly a thousand spirit stones, not to mention that Deacon Sun also specially said that "the best spiritual food" This loss is probably thousands of spirit stones, Deacon Sun is afraid that he has the heart to cover the lid, but how can he cover such a big leak in the late stage of Qi refining.
For Geng Yangze, six hundred and fifty stone spiritual food is not a small amount, although as long as he prepares a heavy gift, makes a special trip to Shenxiao Mountain, and sees the Venerable Master Qiande say a few words and then approve a note, most of them can smooth out this loss, but the problem is that he still wants to take out the responsibility for his instructions to set fires, so he asked unceremoniously: "Where is Xiong Feihong now?"
"At that time, Xiong Feihong was found on the spot by the night patrol samurai, openly resisted arrest, and even had a mad attack, wounded two people with a knife, and had to kill them on the spot, and now the body is still parked in the east of the barn, the villain has sent someone to guard the corpse, and has brought the family of the dog thief!"
"Hmm!" Liu Suiyun immediately said: "Go to the threshing field! Where is this person from? How many people are there in the family?"
"This person came to our seven towns from other places to join relatives, because he couldn't find relatives to vote, he settled in our seven back towns, and then came to us to work for 12 years, usually always very well disguised, an honest appearance, only one mother-in-law at home, a pair of children. ”
"Outlander?"
Liu Suiyun only felt that the possibility of intentional homicide by Geng Yangze, Deacon Sun and other related people suddenly increased greatly, a helpless outsider, a mysterious fire just appeared before the pilgrimage envoy came to inspect, this is too deliberate, right?
"It's a foreigner, but I've been living in our town for 20 years, and the yellow book and the road are all complete, and there are merchants in the town when I enter the warehouse. Deacon Sun was sweating, he didn't expect Liu Suiyun to ask him the most frightening question: "And he has already been a son-in-law in the town, has given birth to children, and has a shop guarantee, and the little talent is ......."
"How can outsiders be used in a place like the Daobing Grain Depot!" Geng Yangze glared at Deacon Sun: "Deacon Sun, you are really obsessed!"
Deacon Sun knelt down directly for Geng Yangze, but Liu Suiyun said: "After inspecting the corpse, let's talk about ......."
Xiong Feihong's body was lying there in the barn field, a wolf, covered in blood, Gu Shanhe put on deerskin gloves and checked it: "That's right, it was a knife wound and a spear wound, and after being stabbed seven times in a row, he was stabbed two times and the gun was fatal, do you want me to practice blistering and solving cattle?"
"It shouldn't be a big deal. Liu Suiyun asked, "Where is he from?" When will he come to Qihui Town to join his relatives?"
Geng Yangze had already taken Xiong Feihong's resume and yellow book in his hand, and he immediately said: "I was originally from Chengou Town, Quhe County, Tianji County, and Hongchang has returned to the town seven times in the past seven years, that is, he has lived in Qihui Town for exactly 20 years, and Hongchang ......has lived for nine years."
Gu Shanhe just felt that Xiong Feihong's resume was a little familiar, but he had already said: "This Xiong Feihong's resume is very interesting......"
Gu Shanhe immediately asked, "Senior brother, what is an interesting method?"
Liu Suiyun smiled: "Big brother, have you forgotten that Xing Ruyu is also from Chengou Town, Quhe County, Tianji County." ”
