Chapter 59

She looked down at the ground again, and saw two wet barefoot marks under the corridor, and the footprints came in and out. Looking out in the direction of the footprints, there was a courtyard soaked in heavy rain. In the rain in the courtyard, you could vaguely see several footprints extending and expanding everywhere on the ground, but the end of the footprints was the gate of the courtyard.

Huang E's heartbeat and immediately concealed: "Oh, brother, the rain is still falling, and the petals collected yesterday are probably rotten... No, we have to set off and go home quickly."

Shi Chuan was happily rinsing her barefoot with a scoop and was still whistling happily. He replied indifferently: "It's okay, I looked at it in the middle of the night, and I even took the basket into the woodshed and covered it with a tarp."

Huang E shook her head: "No, the flowers picked after the rain are already very damp. They cover them with tarpaulins and smell bad all day long. There is no fragrance."

Shi Chuan stared at Huang E, but didn't explain anymore, and just gave a stern reminder: "Don't touch those baskets!"

Huang E smiled, her big eyes staring at Shi Tong without blinking, and she felt very at ease.

Shi Chuan just said that he got up in the middle of the night and moved the flower basket from the carriage into the woodshed, but his footprints clearly came in from outside the yard, and the carriage was still in the yard, so there was no need to run outside the door - Shi Chuan clearly ran out in the middle of the night to do something... But as long as he came back, Huang E only asked him to return to his side.

"It's getting late, so let's call everyone up and let's go." Huang E said quickly.

No matter what I did when I went out in the middle of the night, I couldn’t stay in the place of right and wrong for a long time. Well, as long as I went out, everyone stepped on a circle of footprints in the yard, then there was no trace.

Later, Huang E led the girls out of the small mountain village uneasy. On the way, she frequently looked back and looked around, but nothing happened. The girls rarely came out. They were about to return to their warm nest at this moment, and no one cared about Huang E's panic. Everyone chattered and talked about the women's clothing seen during the spring outing. Women were always sensitive to these.

But Huang E's frequent actions of looking back and looking around could not be hidden from Tofu Xishi. Tofu Xishi also heard the dog barking at night, but she raised a dog herself and could tell the sound of the dog barking. She was as lazy as the villagers. She was too lazy to get up after this incident. After that, when she saw Huang E looking back, she asked with concern: "E-niang, have you forgotten something?"

Huang E shook her head silently: This is a secret, the secret between me and my brother. The girl felt that she would be closer when she had a secret relationship.

When the group entered Haizhou City, the drizzle stopped. Fortunately, the drizzle in the Qingming Festival was drizzling in the air, but without having to hold an umbrella, it was just a layer of coat wet. The girls were slamming the water vapor on each other in the city gate. The girl Suxin is old and has a lot of thoughts. After tidying up her clothes, she thought about going over to check the flower basket. Huang E hurriedly stopped her: "Sister Suxin, don't worry about the basket. It's just a matter of playing and doing it. Now you and I are soaked all over, so hurry up and go home to change clothes. Since these petals are not caring about, they all think they are going out to have fun."

Su Xin was inconvenient to refute the words of the future magistrate's daughter. She gave Huang E a little blessing, turned around and retreated to the back. Shi Chuan quickly stepped forward and grabbed the mule, preparing to go home quickly. At this moment, Meng Dutou held the knife with one hand and held the official hat with the other hand, and rushed towards the city gate hole in the mud and water: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, I will handle the case quickly."

Huang E stood nervously beside Shi Chuan, staring at the yamen runners who were charging towards the city gate in the distance. Shi Chuan took Huang E's hand, shook her head gently, and signaled Huang E not to be nervous. Later, Meng Dutou rushed into the city gate in panting, followed by several yamen runners holding sticks and knives, and another yamen runner was carrying an umbrella in the back, shouting, "County lieutenant, County lieutenant, don't worry, for this moment, wait, wait until I open the umbrella."

Mengdu rushed into the city gate, then opened his eyes and realized that it was Shi Chuan who was rushing to him. He shivered and shook the rain all over his body: "Dalang, why is it you again? Why don't you stop for a moment?"

Shituan stared at him and asked roughly: "Who are you talking about?"

Meng Dutou hurriedly defended: "I didn't say you didn't say you... Dalang, do you still remember the Peach Blossom View? Something happened to that Peach Blossom View again. Look at this heavy rainy day, it's really not calm... Oh, Dalang went out on a heavy rainy day, it's not bad or calm."

Hearing the three words "Peach Blossom View", all the girls couldn't help but tremble. Shi Chuan stomped his feet, with regret and regret on his face: "It's really a disaster to cut off the grass and not eradicate the roots. I said that at the beginning: The owner of the Peach Blossom View is not authentic... This time, who did they kidnap again?"

"I didn't kidnap anyone," Mengdu replied tightly. At this time, the yamen runners arrived panting, and the yamen runner also opened his umbrella and stood above Mengdu. Mengdu glared at him: "Where there is no rain in the city gate, what umbrella is there?"

Shichi continued to keep his smile, but Meng Dutou felt that the smile was a bit malicious. Shichi asked, "This time they didn't kidnap people, did they kill people?"

"Well, dare-" Meng Dutou replied casually, and immediately felt that his answer was not majestic enough, so he rushed to add: "Do they dare?"

At this moment, Shizun lowered his head and found that Mengdu Tou had changed into a new official uniform. He smiled and joked, "Oh, I haven't seen you for a month, you are no longer Mengdu Tou."

"That's right, under the rule of this county magistrate, the robbers and dogs are robbers...ah, there is no extinction. I just came to report the case in Peach Blossom Temple and said that they had lost a lot of money and even two gold-plated sandalwood statues. Are you wondering? The Tao Blossom Temple offers statues of the Three Pure Land Dao Ancestors. The three statues all have the same material. It's strange. I lost two of them alone. Could it be that the two gods have opinions about Peach Blossom Temple... It's really strange.

Also, sandalwood is dead and sank, one person's tall sandalwood statue, and a thick gold foil is pasted. Who can carry it? If it is a person who steals it, he will probably have to catch a carriage and get nine cows and two tigers to pull the two statues away. But in the temple that night, even the awakened people who slept the most did not hear any sound. When they opened their eyes in broad daylight, there were only one of the three statues left. You said, this is not a blame from the gods. Who can move the statue silently? It's a ghost!"

Shi Chuan smiled sneakily, and replied leisurely: "This case is very rich and greasy - County Magistrate Meng, just be so suspicious. When the people in Taohua Temple hear your suspicion, how dare they admit that they lost something?

That’s right, Taohua Temple, which had just had a major abduction and trafficking case, suddenly disappeared. Even the people in the temple couldn’t explain how to lose it. Maybe it was because the gods were dissatisfied and ran away by themselves. What does this mean? Even the gods participated in the abduction and trafficking incident with Taohua Temple, and were safe afterwards, and they didn’t even provide food to the abducted persons. The gods couldn’t see it..."

"Mom" Meng Du said to her head: "This matter is a big deal, are there any pilgrims coming to her house?"

Huang E felt a sense of anger in her heart, and she happily added: "Maybe, the audience has figured out this truth now. She regrets reporting the case while watching."

Shi Chuan replied with a smile: "That's not necessarily the case. Monks often shout to 'quit greed' - why do they shout like this? Whatever they lack!"
