Sword Moon Lyrics

Shi Feng shook his head, "Uncle Master, the appearance can be changed, and the clothes are even simpler. Just kill the real Lao Hu and wear the dead man's clothes.

As for speaking the local dialect and cooking noodles, it is not difficult to do. Boiling noodles is just boiling water, not preparing delicacies from the mountains and the sea or preparing a palace banquet.

However, in a hurry, this person can learn so vividly, which shows that he is a master of disguise, tracking, and assassination!"

"Xiao Feng, are you so sure that the old shopkeeper must be disguised by someone else?"

"Well! I guess this killer should have arrived at Jianmen Pass yesterday. He may have stopped at the teahouse and ordered a bowl of noodles. While eating, he observed Lao Hu.

The old shopkeeper is alone, and it is the least likely to be discovered if he disguises himself as him. And Jianmen Pass is the only way to enter Shu. After thinking about it, then Everyone thought this was a great place to start.

So, after closing the stall at night, this person quietly followed behind, killed Lao Hu, changed into his clothes, and waited for the prey to take the bait.

And when this person ate noodles during the day, he had already learned Lao Hu's tone of voice and his movements vividly. As for cooking noodles and burning some kaishan, it was naturally a piece of cake. "

Daoist Ganchu laughed, "Xiaofeng, you speak as if you saw it with your own eyes, so what flaw did he reveal that made you discover it? How come I, Miss Ning San, and Mr. Su didn't notice it at all?"

Shi Feng said, "Uncle, you three didn't notice it because you are from a family of cultivators, unlike me, a disciple, who comes from the mortal world. You may not understand some worldly affairs. The flaw of the fake Lao Hu was his quarrel with the soldier. "

Daoist Ganchu recalled "Fighting, what's the flaw? I didn't find it."

"Of course there is!" Shi Feng said, "The tables and benches, iron pots and chopping boards in the teahouse are all very old, and the soldier seems to be very familiar with Lao Hu, which means that Lao Hu's teahouse has been here for some years."

Daoist Ganchu nodded, "Yes."

"Although the bird path of Jianmen Pass is rugged and it is very difficult to carry things up and down, Lao Hu can do it here for many years, which means it is still profitable. If it loses money every day, who would suffer this pain.

I calculated that there are five soldiers in Jianmen Pass, and their three meals a day are provided to Lao Hu, which is a business of fifteen copper coins. In addition, Jianmen Pass is the only resting place at the pass within a radius of ten miles. When pedestrians come here, they will inevitably drink tea and eat a bowl of noodles, so the business is still good.

And can you set up a stall in front of the city gate? When it comes to business, the military officer at the checkpoint has the final say. Lao Hu has been doing business here for so many years, so he must have a close relationship with the officers at the checkpoint. How could he quarrel with them! ”

Daoist Ganchu pondered for a moment, “Lao Hu didn’t quarrel with them, he just kept accepting it, it was Master Su who quarreled with him.”

Shi Feng shook his head, “Master Su thought that the officers were oppressing the good people, so he stood up and scolded them, and stood up for justice, he didn’t do anything wrong.”

“But Lao Hu didn’t do anything wrong either. The soldier used the money for vegetarian noodles to buy meat noodles, and Lao Hu didn’t say a word, obviously he was used to it. The other party asked for a bribe, and he gave it obediently.”

Shi Feng said, “This is Lao Hu’s flaw!”

“What?”

Shi Feng said lightly, “The soldier didn’t ask for a bribe at all, and the killer who pretended to be Lao Hu would also misunderstand this!”

“Not asking for money?”

“Of course not! The army at Chengmenguan allowed Lao Hu to open a tea stall here, so they must have agreed on how much tribute money to give each month. How could they ask Lao Hu for money in front of outsiders? "

"But I remember that it was the soldier who started to make things difficult for him?"

"Yes! But Uncle Master, think back, what did the soldier say, 'Lao Hu, you are becoming more and more ignorant? ', what rules did he break?

What rules were they? When the killer came to observe yesterday, he didn't see any soldiers coming to buy noodles, so he didn't know what the rules were.

He could only guess blindly. He first thought that the other party wanted to serve noodles himself, so he hurried to serve the wooden plate, but the soldier stopped him and said that was not the case.

The killer was a little panicked, and thought that the other party might be asking for a bribe, so he took a few copper coins and handed them over, but was stopped by the other party again.

In fact, the killer was about to reveal his true colors.

But at this time, Master Su couldn't stand it, so he jumped up to defend the injustice and ruined the whole thing. "

Daoist Ganchu was very curious, "Xiaofeng, you described it so vividly, do you know what the soldier wanted?"

"I didn't guess it at first, but I followed the fat soldier's gaze and found that he was looking at the five bowls of noodles."

"Is there anything wrong with the five bowls of noodles?" Daoist Ganchu thought for a while.

"It's because there's nothing wrong, so it's wrong."

In the black tortoise bones, the horned demon dragon said, "Listen, are you talking human language?"

Shi Feng continued, "Uncle, you were afraid that the disciple would not be full, so you ordered mutton noodles for me. I counted and there were four slices of mutton in total. I think when the killer came to eat yesterday, he had already discovered that Lao Hu gave four slices of mutton for each bowl of noodles, so he gave me and those soldiers four slices of mutton.

However, the military master of Jianmen Pass is Lao Hu's backer, and usually he must have two more slices of meat for each bowl of noodles. Lao Hu didn't know, and the fat soldier must be angry and scolded him for not knowing the rules. "

Daoist Ganchu couldn't help laughing, "So there are two pieces of meat missing, Xiaofeng, you are really smart, you can even see the flaw."

Shi Feng said, "That's because you, Master, have never been in the mortal world. Mortals are busy just for three meals a day, so they are naturally calculative. These soldiers have meager salaries, so they must be greedy for small gains. In fact, the killer has more than one flaw."

"Is there anything else?"

"Of course! The fat soldier was angered by Master Su and left. Old Hu kept thanking Master Su, which is not right.

Master Su is just a guest, and the military master is Old Hu's ancestor. He doesn't flatter the military master, but instead flatters Master Su. Isn't he worried that the officers at Jianmen Pass will drive him away the next day?"

Daoist Ganchu nodded, "Now that you put it that way , I also think there is a problem. Could this person be invited by the Shangguan family to deal with the old Taoist? But the noodles and tea seem to be fine. "

"Yes. The noodles and tea are not poisoned. Until now, the disciple has not figured out what the other party's means are! In addition, the person this person wants to deal with may not be us. "

"If it's not me, the old Taoist, then it can only be Miss Ning San or Mr. Su. "

The Horned Demon Dragon curled his lips, "Why can't it be Xiao Shitou? He went to Qingdi Valley and offended people from here to Shigu Mountain. "

When the two were talking, there was a dingling sound behind them, and Miss Ning San rode up on a donkey.

Daoist Ganchu and Shi Feng still stepped aside to let Miss Ning San pass first.

When the sun went down and the sky was full of stars, the two still didn't walk out of the mountain road. Thinking that the thieves would ambush in the dark, the two did not continue to rush on the road and found a valley to rest.

Qingshui and the others had a lot of fasting pills. That night, the two took turns to keep watch until dawn, and nothing unusual happened.

The next day, the two continued their journey. At noon, they arrived in Zitong. Shi Feng bought two good horses, and the master and apprentice rode their horses at full speed.

They passed Mianyang and Luojiang all the way, and arrived in Deyang when the red sun set the next day.

Taoist Ganchu saw that his mount was sweating all over, so he pulled the reins, "Xiao Feng, there are still 160 to 170 miles to Chengdu Prefecture. We will definitely not be able to make it today. Let's rest for a night and go again tomorrow."

"Okay, uncle."

The two rode slowly and entered Deyang Prefecture. The lights were just on, and there were still many pedestrians on the street. The wine shop was doing the best business. It was full of people, and they played finger-guessing and toasting.

After walking through a street and turning a corner, they saw a cloth banner with "Lao Shi Inn" written on it. Taoist Ganchu smiled and said, "Xiao Feng, we are at your family's home. Why don't you stay here for a night? I just don't know if this old Shi is really honest! Haha."

The two got off the horse, held the reins, and walked in.

A waiter had come to greet them, "Master, are you two guests going to stay in the hotel?"

"Yes, are there any clean rooms?"

"Yes, yes."

"One room is needed. By the way, you need to feed my two horses with good fodder, as we have to travel tomorrow."

The waiter quickly agreed, "Please rest assured, there is a stable in the backyard of our inn, and there are people to take care of it. I will take you there now."

He walked and said, "Master, we also divide the horses into three grades: top, middle and bottom. The top grade costs ten copper coins, which is fine fodder. We also wash the horses to relieve their fatigue, and burn incense at night..."

Taoist Ganchu couldn't help laughing, "Burning incense, these horses are just animals. , can you smell the difference between good and bad?"

"Master Dao, you don't know this. There are two benefits of burning incense. One is to drive away mosquitoes. In this hot day, there are many mosquitoes at night. If the horse is bitten all night, how can it sleep well? The second is that burning incense can calm the mind, so that the horse can sleep better and be more energetic the next day. "

"That makes sense. Since these two horses are destined to be with me, I naturally can't bear to treat them badly. Then choose the best one to take care of. Xiaoer, you will count it in the room fee."

"Yes, yes, guest, then please go this way."

So, the waiter led the two to the east stable. Sure enough, this stable was much cleaner than the west one.

Shi Feng came over and saw at a glance that there was a donkey with gray hair and white lips lying in the stable. A guy next to him was washing the donkey with a bucket and a brush.

Shi Feng transmitted his voice, "Master, what a coincidence that I met Miss Ning San again. It seems that she is as kind-hearted as you are. She couldn't bear to mistreat the mount, so she chose the best care for the donkey."
