Chapter 317

"You are..." Two villagers looked at Si Ziyi and Lou Han for a moment and asked. At first glance, he is a stranger, not only a stranger but also a stranger. Where does anyone wear such rich clothes in Zhoucheng? Although the style is single, it looks very ordinary, but the discerning people feel unusual when they look at the cloth. The two villagers look at each other and look at Lou Han and Si Ziyi separately.

Si Ziyi looked at them and said nothing. Lou Han said with a smile, "are you villagers living in Jixiang village?" Lou Han bent his eyebrows, trying to show his most gentle and approachable side, so as not to scare away the two villagers.

The two villagers looked at each other and nodded: "yes, what's the matter? What can I do for you

Lou Han looked at Yan Si Ziyi and said, "we were sent by the emperor to supervise. Before we went to the government of the state, we heard that 20 people suddenly disappeared in Jixiang village at the foot of the mountain temple. So we came here in advance to have a look at the situation." Lou Han looked at the two villagers seriously and put them "I believe we must be right" signal, the two villagers were stunned, looked at each other, at first was a little suspicious, but saw the accessories of Si Ziyi's waist, and suddenly stood behind the two tall men in black, then vaguely some believe, wilt son voice wilt son gas nodded, seems not to know the emperor's officials should have what kind of attitude "If you want to know something, you can follow us to the village head." The man who is holding his head beckons, indicating that Lou Han and Si Ziyi follow them.

Lou Han nodded and followed them with Si Ziyi's hand. He didn't see many villagers along the way, but the houses were close to each other. Lou Han was curious for a moment and asked, "what about the others in your village?" Should not 20 people disappeared after they left two people, Lou Han helplessly shook his head.

Another man looked at Lou Han behind him with a smile: "little brother, it's from other places."

Lou Han is stunned. How can you tell that you are from other places by asking this? Is it difficult for you to find out if there are any outsiders here who often come to your village to ask you two Or do you local people already know that there are 12 people in jiuer village, and there are only two left after 20? Lou Han smoked the corner of his mouth and said with a faint smile: "ah, yes We are from the imperial city Lou Han repeated what he had just said.

The man scratched his head and said with a shy smile: "Oh, I forgot for a while. There are many people in our village, but because the city master is sick all the year round, we often go up to the mountain to collect medicine for him. After finishing the farm work, we go to the mountain in the morning, and the city master will reward us! It's much better than farming. " The man was very happy, as if he got a lot of money from the city master.

Lou Han raises eyebrows. Even if the city leader has been ill for several years I'm afraid he can't finish the medicine in the mountain for a while. All the herbs in the mountain have been given to the city Lord and his family? That's bullshit Besides, the city leaders have been ill for five years. They have taken the medicine they collected for five years. The effect has not changed at all. Is it that they are too sick to get out of bed? Lou Han smashed it, smashed it: "how do you calculate this medicine?"

"According to Jin, all herbs are weighed according to Jin. There are many more and few." The man had a good laugh.

Lou Han picks eyebrows. The medicinal materials can be divided into high and low. What's the difference It seems that it's not proper to weigh things by Jin. What if a villager picks up some precious things again and sells them by Jin? Some herbs are priceless. Lou Han looks at Si Ziyi, who has no expression on his face. But he nods to understand what Lou Han wants to say at this moment. Lou Han can't help but hold his husband's hand. He really understands himself. Well, he has a tacit understanding!

Soon, the two men took Lou Han and Si Ziyi to their village head's house. Like other villagers' houses, the village head's house was made of mud and straw. Lou Han thought that there would be a capitalist living here. Unexpectedly, it was also a poor jingling place.

The man with the hoe knocked on the door of the village head's house and called out: "Lao Zhu! Lao Zhu! Old Zhu Shouting and knocking at the door. Lou Han and Si Ziyi look at each other and see that this door, which is already broken, is even more broken than other doors in the village. Lou Han can't help laughing.

There was a slow sound of footsteps inside, and the door was suddenly opened. As soon as an old man with messy hair opened the door, he began to scold: "silly turtle, what are you knocking there? You've been knocking all the time! My old man is not dead, knock inside! Knock you again, believe it or not, I'll give you the skin! You knock

Lou Han is stunned by the old man's momentum. He forgets to blink when he looks at the old man. Si Ziyi looks at the old man without expression. He is really frightened by his sudden shout. On the other hand, the man with a hoe said with a smile: "ah, Lao Zhu, the people in the Imperial City have come to ask you something!"

The old man blew his white and black beard and glared at the man: "I'm kidding. I'm an old man. What can people in the Imperial City ask me! Don't talk nonsense there The old man turns around and is about to enter the room. He doesn't see Lou Han and Si Ziyi standing by. Lou Han helplessly supports his forehead. Maybe the old man's eyes are not rightThe man with a hoe quickly stopped the old man who was about to close the door: "people are standing at the door, you old blind man!" Although he said so, he didn't have much confidence in his tone. At first sight, he was often attacked by the old man's words. He was afraid of Lao Tzu and couldn't get angry.

The old man stopped his action, turned his head, and his temper came up again: "which imperial city is coming, it doesn't make a sound. My eyes are not good, old man, I make a sound when I come!" After that, he opened the door and walked into the room with his walking stick. Lou Han saw that his eyes were all slightly white, and the black pupils were also white. He looked very ugly It's a little scary, but I understand when I know he's blind.

Si Ziyi takes Lou Han by the hand and enters the room. The room is not as small as it looks outside. It's quite spacious. Maybe it's because there's nothing in the room. The room suddenly becomes much bigger. Lou Han and Si Ziyi took two small wooden benches and sat on the ground. Beside them, there was a low wooden table with a leg missing. They supported it with bricks and didn't let it shake. The old village head took out his pipe from the bedside. The man on one side put down his hoe to light his pipe. Another man left.

The old village head smokes a cigarette, vomits a comfortable eye circle, and leans on the Kang with his legs crossed. He takes a deep breath: "where are you from? What do you want to ask me The old village head looked at the opposite wall, his eyes dim.

Si Ziyi opened his lips lightly: "it's about 20 people who suddenly disappeared in the village." When Si Ziyi finished speaking, the old village head's face changed a little, and his hands shaking with his pipe.

Si Ziyi looked up at the old village head and said, "how did 20 people in your village find out that they were missing?"
