Chapter 107 Luo Yiyi: It’s so disappointing that there is no candied haws in the place
The next day, the weather was bright and sunny. Wang Wang was ordered to stay at home to look after the house. Luo Yiyi and Qi Gui went to Louguan Town where the Wen family was, under the pretext of gathering intelligence, but in fact they went there to eat, drink and have fun.
Wang Wang was ready to run away, but when he stepped out of the open space where the bamboo house was, a little rabbit jumped from his left side, which scared him. But before he could recover, a vine suddenly came from his right side and slammed him back to the open space.
He lay on his back, feeling the burning pain on his right cheek. A white horse's head appeared above him and blew a breath at him. For some reason he felt as if it was mocking him.
Wang Wang shed manly tears in despair.
Louguan Town, ruled by the Wen family, is as prosperous as Cihuai Town.
But now, what Luo Yiyi saw was a scene of desolation. The doors of the shops on both sides of the street were closed, and there were few people on the road. The occasional person who appeared was running by in a hurry with a tense expression on his face.
Luo Yiyi was surprised: "Gui Gui, there doesn't seem to be any candied haws here."
Qi Gui frowned and looked around with a slight vigilance. Although the windows above the houses on both sides were closed, he could still see pairs of eyes peeking through the gaps in the windows.
Regardless of his expression, his tone was still gentle: "Master, do you want to go to Yongfeng Town? The candied haws stall there should be open soon."
Luo Yiyi shook her head and swore to him, "Gui Gui, we are here to gather intelligence, not to eat, drink and have fun. You have to concentrate!"
Qi Gui resolutely admitted his mistake: "Master, your teaching is correct. I will keep it in mind."
Luo Yiyi nodded with satisfaction, and walked forward with a swagger, followed closely by Qi Gui.
Most of the shops in the town were closed, but some had to open their doors to make a living, although their doors were only half open. Among them was a large three-story inn located in the center of the street.
Luo Yiyi noticed the eye-catching red lantern hanging at the door of the inn from a long distance. After walking in, she heard a series of "puff" sounds. She looked around curiously and soon saw a furtive head behind the half-closed door of the inn.
It looked like he should be the waiter of the inn. At the moment, he was hiding behind the door, only occasionally sticking out half of his head and making almost angry sounds to solicit business from Luo Yiyi and Qi Gui.
Luo Yiyi tilted her head and saw that all other places were closed, so she walked over and stepped into the inn.
The waiter first breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and skillfully led the two, one adult and one child, into the empty shop. They came to a square table, and he took off the rag around his neck and symbolically wiped the table.
He quickly poured two cups of cheap tea and said, "How are you, my two guests? Would you like some food or snacks?"
Luo Yiyi used her hands and feet to climb onto the chair and sat down, staring at the edge of the table in front of her that was as high as her forehead. Her cheeks gradually puffed up, and her little expression clearly revealed a signal of unhappiness.
The waiter noticed it sensitively and was about to say that there were high stools for children in the store, but then he saw Qi Gui conjure up a cushion of suitable thickness out of thin air and placed it on the chair in front of him. He then skillfully carried Luo Yiyi to sit on it, and then sat down on a stool beside him.
The waiter looked at the pair curiously and initially guessed that they were siblings, but when he saw that Qi Gui's attitude was clearly respectful yet uncertain, he began to wonder.
Luo Yiyi clapped her hands on the table: "Waiter, bring up all the delicious food!"
The waiter looked at Qi Gui in surprise, and the other party nodded at him.
"I'll have one of each of the specialties."
The waiter grinned widely, obviously very happy: "Okay! Please wait a moment, I will serve you the food right away."
He bowed and quickly ran to the kitchen, shouted several times, and listed many dishes.
A rough voice came from the kitchen, meaning that some raw materials were gone. The waiter immediately showed a regretful expression, then returned to the two of them and reported all the dishes that could be made.
After he finished speaking, Qi Gui placed a silver ingot on the table. The waiter's eyes widened, confirming that Qi Gui was indeed giving it to him. He cautiously glanced sideways at the shopkeeper who was dozing off behind the counter, then quickly picked up the silver and stuffed it into his inner pocket.
The waiter was very clever: "Sir, if you want to know anything, just ask me. I grew up here, and there is nothing in Louguan Town that I don't know."
Qi Gui immediately asked: "What happened here?"
As if he knew what he was asking, the waiter answered in a low voice.
"Sir, you just arrived today, right? You may not know that Louguan Town has always been managed by the Wen family, but recently, something bad happened to the Wen family and they can't even protect themselves. What's even more strange is that the shops here are more or less related to the Wen family, and strange things have happened frequently recently."
"Oh? What strange things happened?"
"Those who were related to the Wen family, or had close contacts with them, died one by one for no apparent reason."
"Inexplicable? What kind of death is that?"
"There were all kinds of deaths, including sudden illness, drowning, fire, fighting, and even one person choked to death while eating. Because of the different ways of death, no one paid much attention at first, but gradually everyone realized that the dead were more or less related to the Wen family."
"The Wen family will definitely send someone to investigate. Have they found out anything?"
"Hey, the Wen family is in a mess. One person dies every three days, and the cause has not been found yet. How can they have time to care about outsiders?"
"Who are the people who died in the Wen family?"
"There were masters and servants, young and old. Soon the servants fled one after another. Many people from the Wen family's side branches also left Louguan Town. I don't know if they are still safe."
After receiving such strange information, Qi Gui lowered his eyes and thought.
Luo Yiyi shook her little feet and asked the waiter: "How are the surviving people in the Wen family doing now?"
No matter how small, it’s a sponsor, the waiter answered enthusiastically.
"I heard that the old head of the Wen family is seriously ill, and the current head is also suffering from a strange disease. The young master of the Wen family has been sent away, and we don't know where he was sent. We all guessed that he should have gone to Taiyi Sect. After all, everyone knows that Taiyi Sect is the big backer behind the Wen family."
"Then do you know Yu Sheng?"
"Yu Sheng?"
The waiter was stunned, thought about it carefully and shook his head: "I have never heard of such a person."
Luo Yiyi guessed that it was possible that Yu Sheng was sent away together with the young master of the Wen family, and the bandit leaders of Wolong Village and the forces behind them were looking for their whereabouts.
At this time, rough shouts came from the kitchen, and it was obvious that the dishes were out of the pot. The waiter immediately went forward to serve the dishes.
Luo Yiyi ate the delicious dishes with big mouthfuls. It was a pity that she couldn't try all the special dishes.
Qi Gui was patiently helping her pick out fish bones and peel shrimp shells, and only started to finish the remaining food after she finished eating.
Walking out of the inn, Qi Gui waited for Luo Yiyi to make a decision.
As expected, Luo Yiyi did not go in the direction she came from, but went deeper into the cave, at the end of which was the Wen family mansion.
Soon, the two stood in front of the closed door of the Wen family.
Qi Gui went forward and knocked on the door, but there was no response. After waiting for a long time, there was finally a sound from inside the door.
The tightly closed door slowly opened a crack, and an old face appeared in the crack.
"who are you?"
