Chapter 152 Maybe the surviving woman

"I heard that Du Fu, a great poet in the Tang Dynasty, once had a poem: 'The sound of the drums and horns of the Fifth Update are tragic, and the stars and rivers of the Three Gorges are shaken.' Since the great poets say so, it is certain that there is a vision on this day, and there must be some instructions." Ximenqing has read some books when he was a child, but not many of them. He only remembers Du Fu's poem, but he also knows that there are few cultural people here. People who are educated and do not come to Xijiang Tea House to drink tea. However, Ximen Qing is still afraid of showing timidity. He quoted the poem just to show that he has Culture, as for what this poem means, he doesn't want to talk more about it.

"What the hell is this? I think it's useless to guess. We have to think about what happened around us recently. Combining these things together should be a little different. Ladies and gentlemen, is that right?" Ximen Qing learned from the woman and swept the audience with his eyes. He tried his best to let everyone see his own eyes, so that everyone present would feel that they were communicating with them.

The people present did not say anything, but still looked at Ximen Qing. Ximen Qing knew that there was a door when he saw this. Now these people have begun to think according to their own ideas. Since you have accepted my ideas, it's easy to do.

Ximenqing took a deep breath secretly: "Of course, our Song Dynasty is vast, and I don't know what happened in other places. I only know what happened in our county. Since this star appeared in the early morning of the 15th, we can also think that it was the night of the 14th. What happened in our county on the night of the 14th? You don't know, do you?

As soon as Ximenqing said this, the discussion sounded like mosquitoes sounded below. Ximenqing laughed secretly. Wu Song's battle against the living corpse had long been passed down by those bodyguard masters. Presumably everyone here knew it.

"Everyone must know, but they don't dare to talk about it, because it involves our Yanggu authorities. But it doesn't matter. You dare not say it. I, Ximen Qing, dare to say it. Brother Li. Ximenqing punched Li Dare: "I'm afraid we will share this bold name in the future, hahaha." Ximen Qing smiled quite boldly. After this smile, he also felt that there was nothing in the world that could not be solved. No matter whether Wu Song had three heads or six arms, I wanted to fight with you. What's more, you are likely to be in deep trouble now, the so-called "take your life while you are sick".

"In fact, you should have heard about it, but I am the one who experienced the events on the evening of the 14th. On the evening of the 14th, a strange thing happened in the house of Wu Song's house in Dutou County. There used to be an official named Qi Si in the county's government, but he died in the summer. Unexpectedly, on the evening of the 14th, he came back to life and appeared in Wu Song's house and led a large number of living bodies like him. Of course, Wudu's god Wu is unrivaled. The reason why he took this position was that he killed the big worm on Jingyanggang with his bare hands. In the face of these living corpses, he rose up his power and killed Qi Si's body. At the same time, he used the secret method to let the other corpses retreat by themselves. In the process of narration, Ximen Qing bit the word "secret method" very heavily.

Ximenqing has heard other rumors, which often vividly describe Wu Song's move of the war with living corpses, but they are selectively blind to Wu Song's method of dealing with other living corpses, because in this paragraph, Wu Song did not use any force, even if It can't add points to its heroic image, so everyone won't talk about it. But Ximenqing wants to talk about it, and we should focus on it. The appearance of this red comet itself is a mysterious thing. Wu Song, as a living person, was able to order the dead body to act according to his own will. This is also a mysterious event.

As the saying goes, "the person who doesn't want to listen is intentional". What's more, now the person who speaks deliberately focuses on the narrative. If many listeners have not responded, it will be too abnormal.

After Ximenqing finished these words, the people who were whispering calmed down, and the effect that Ximenqing wanted was achieved.

"If you calculate the time in detail, it was soon after that that the red star rose. To tell you the truth, I should be the early group of people who saw this star in Yanggu, because when I returned to my home from the Wu family that night, it was already in the middle of the night, and the road I took was straight east and west, so it looked clear. Wudu's rise to be powerful and the red star appears in the world, and the time is very short, so I think it's necessary to say that there is some connection. Ximenqing said this and licked his lips. He knew that he had said enough about Wu Song. So far, everything has been repeated as it is, and there is no element of adding vinegar. The most important thing is that he has not made any conclusion. Everything he said is Wu Song's heroic deeds, even now If you are caught by Wu Song on your neck, the situation will not be too passive.

"Of course, on the fourteenth night, something else happened within the jurisdiction of our Yanggu. Presumably, everyone has heard that there has been a lot of damage from officials in the county government office recently, so they are now intending to recruit new people. I also believe that many of you here also want to send their sons to the government to eat imperial food. After all, eating imperial grain is indeed much better than those of us who do business. Although you are an official and don't have much money to take every month, in trust, if someone in official clothes goes to the store, do you dare to be unfilial? After all, it's useless to make as much money as we earn, because we can't keep any of them. When Ximenqing spoke, he deliberately changed the topic. He knew that if he wanted the audience to recognize him, the most important thing was to give them a sense of identity. Every parent will worry about the future of children. Although Ximenqing has not even got married, he also understands this set of human feelings. It is also because of this that he sometimes feels that he is also a little afraid of marriage. Suddenly, there are some people who are particularly concerned about in life. In this dangerous world, there is nothing less tossing and turning. Smart and calm.

The expression on the face of the tea guests in Xijiang Tea House has changed from shock to expectation. Ximen Qing understands that compared with the red stars in the sky, this topic is obviously more attractive to everyone's attention.

"I'm sorry, it's a little far away. What I want to talk about is about these damaged officials. On the afternoon of the 14th, these officials, led by Wu Song, the head of Du, went out of the city to hold a yin marriage for the late Qi Si. The team out of the city can also be said to be vast. I thought so much that everyone here must have seen it. However, except for Wu Dutou who appeared in his home that night and then fought with the living corpse, the rest of them died. Some officials came back from highly poison and struggled for a few hours, and all of them died. When Ximenqing said this, he looked very sad, as if there were his own nephew among the dead officials.

"Yes, that's right. On the afternoon of the 14th, I saw a large group of officers leaving the city. At that time, I was wondering what I was doing out and carrying two big coffins." A person Ximen Qing didn't know said.

"It's indeed a poisoned thing." A fat middle-aged man put down the teacup he had just finished drinking: "The county government also asked me to treat the poisoned officials, but I saw that those officials had penetrated into the bone marrow. If you want to save them, it is really bound to ascend to the sky. I'm not afraid of jokes. If this is a matter of ordinary people, even if I fight for this life, I will try to see if I can save people's lives, but I really don't dare to take this official matter. In case it can't be cured, I can't bear this responsibility, so I left at that time. Now think about it, it's really a sin to hurt so many lives. The man shook his head and listened to him. Ximen Qing barely recognized him. He was indeed a doctor in the county, but he couldn't even remember his last name.

Very good, everyone has participated in the action of supplementing their own remarks. Wu Song has never avoided people when doing these things. Yanggu has so many eyes, stitched up different parts, and added reasonable imagination. Wu Song, do you know that there are many things that are actually not in the light. These things are not just the men and women in the quilt.

Of course, this is all right. Ximen Qing understands that even if these people here support their remarks in the Xijiang Tea House, he must be cautious. Wu Song is the actual ruler of Yanggu and can't give Wu Song any opportunity. Otherwise, he will be doomed. However, these are enough. Ximen Qing thought in his heart that all the people died and only Wu Song came back alive. Isn't that enough? This kind of thing will give ordinary flat-headed people endless fun and reverie space.

"This is the night of November 14, but folks, Yanggu has indeed been in peace recently. On the night of November 15, a big event has also happened in Yanggu, which must be known to everyone, but this lady has just arrived here and must not know that since the younger brother has stood up, it is all Let me tell you something about it. Ximenqing looked at the woman with a smile and nodded.

The woman was slightly blessed: "Thank you, uncle."

"In the 14th night, a fire broke out in Rouge Lane, where the fireworks in the county gathered. The burning brothel was called Mochou Hall, and it was said that all of them were burned down. I'm ashamed to say that I don't hide it from this lady. My younger brother was originally No. 1 in the wind and moon field in Yanggu. The Mochou Hall, which caught fire, was also a place that my younger brother often cared before. It's just that there have been more things in the past six months. Over time, it has become a little indifferent to men and women, so I can't remember it. Unexpectedly, this Mochou Hall is on fire, alas. Ximen Qing looked sad, and at the same time, he was nervous as if he looked around. He wanted to see everyone's eyes.

Because until now, Ximen Qing told the first lie of his speech today. This lie is that in fact, he had been to the Mochou Hall on the afternoon of the 15th. Of course, he left soon. When I left, there was still a long time before the fire started, so this lie was harmless. Therefore, Ximenqing regards this lie as a temptation. If Wu Song intends to investigate himself now, he must have known that he sent Wu University to the Mochou Hall in the afternoon and visit nearby will also be based on this.

If this is the case, there are some people here who have heard about what they do in Yanggu County, that is, they almost know that they arrived at the Mochou Hall on the afternoon of November 15.

This is a kind of temptation. If no one raises any objection, it means that Wu Song has not yet started the investigation at this time. Although he can't claim that he has successfully hidden it, at least there is still a distance away from himself. More importantly, no one knows about Mochou Hall that day, so they have more room to play.

Ximenqing observed for a moment with sadness. Good, as I thought, no one objected. However, it is impossible for them not to participate in the discussion, because in fact, Ximen Qing only knows so much about the fire. Unlike the living corpse incident, he is not an experienced person in the fire incident.

"However, I really only know so much about Rouge Lane, and I have heard about it. I wonder if anyone here knows more about this matter? After all, when several people here are asking me which girl in Rouge Lane is good, I recommend Mochou Hall. When Ximen Qing said this, he felt particularly relieved. As he said, he usually used his eyes to search for the faces of hypocrites, and their faces turned white at this moment. Anyway, Ximenqing doesn't plan to stay in Yanggu for a long time. Now he doesn't have to think too much about the consequences. Besides, what kind of consequences can these people cause?

"I know a little about this." A man staggered and stood up. Ximen Qing looked at this man and felt familiar. He should have seen him once or twice at the Chamber of Commerce, but others did not know. Let me introduce, my surname is Xu, and the business I have done is not as glamorous as you. I run a longevity material business in this county.

The person below said "oh" at the same time. The so-called longevity material is also a coffin. Although everyone has to use this thing in the end, it is still a little embarrassing to mention it on this occasion.

The shopkeeper Xu continued: "Actually, I guess that everyone here doesn't know much about this matter, because on the 15th night, it was basically empty. Everyone went out to see the stars. Few people are engaged in other activities. After all, this brothel can be visited every day, but new things are not every day. All. On the 16th day, the government came to the small shop to buy the coffins of the victims in Rouge Lane. The officials who came to buy them were very familiar with me, so I asked about the situation by the way. A total of 13 bodies, nine women and four men, were cleaned out in the ruins of Rouge Lane.

Ximenqing's heart suddenly tightened. Will there be Wu Da among the four dead men? If so, bad luck will haunt him like a shadow. Wu Song will definitely die!

"However, these four men were not found with the female corpse, and the degree of burning was also worse. It can be judged that they were the maids of the brothel. He must be a regular customer in the brothel. He went to see the stars that day, which is also because of this. However, there are indeed some abnormal places in this fire. The shopkeeper Xu squefied his teeth: "Six female corpses were found in the same room. According to judgment, this room is a guest room. Six women are all in the same room, and the most important thing is that there are no men, which is already very strange, but what is more strange is the action of these six women when they die. Their movements are definitely not the way they died without being trapped in the sea of fire and finally dying, but more like being killed before the fire. Even individual bodies are incomplete. On this point, the official's description was vague. He just told me that one of the women's arms were torn off, and the remains of her arms were also found in the room. Manager Xu stopped talking about this and seemed to fall into thought.

"And then?" Looking at the sound, this was said by Li Darren. Obviously, everyone is very interested in the narrative of Mr. Xu.

Six female corpses! Six! Ximenqing trembled when he heard this number. He carefully recalled that at that time, there should be six women beside Wu Da who entered the room. Besides, except for the person who ate that **, who would order six girls at once? Six women died in the same room. It is likely that the room is Wuda. The prostitutes are all dead, what about Wu Da? Shopkeeper Xu said that no other male corpses were found. Did Wu Song press down this matter and not mourn Wu Da's secret? He only said that six female corpses were found in that room? No, this is not reasonable. There is no reason for Wu Song to do so. He should not hide anything from his subordinates. In this way, it will only create endless trouble for his investigation.

"Oh, yes, I remember." Manager Xu suddenly opened his mouth, and everyone was also interested. Because the official who came to buy the coffin has also been to the Mochou Hall and knows it well, he also told me that among the six female corpses, there is an old lady Qiuyan who is identified as Mochou Hall.

One is Qiu Yan! That is to say, there are only five prostitutes, five, and six from Wu University, that is to say, this has nothing to do with Wuhan University. Ximenqing was delighted, as if he had been pardoned. If there were not so many people around, he would have wanted to jump up and cheer.

No, five does not mean that it is not Wuda. During this period, it is completely normal for Wuda to be dissatisfied with any prostitute and withdraw her. After all, he has not always been there. If you order five women, ordinary guests will not do that. If there are more than two girls playing at the same time, they will be boring. Except for the fool of Wu Da, no one will be simply satisfied with the quantitative pleasure, that is to say, it is likely to be his room.

However... If Wu Da retreated one, where is the repulscated prostitute? Is she dead? What does she know? If Wu Da really didn't die in the fire, and the women in his room died, did the fire have something to do with him?

Anyway, this woman who may survive is crucial.
