Chapter 60 Finding clues

The woman took the basket and left, apparently planning to go home to get something.

The woman walked two streets, and then entered a courtyard. The courtyard was not big, and there were various things in it. The woman entered the house, opened the cabinet, took out the clothes, and there was a wooden board behind the cabinet.

Tap it regularly a few times.

"What's wrong?" The wooden board behind the cabinet was opened.

"The evil Taoist took off his Taoist robe, went out, and headed towards the west gate." The woman said.

"Okay!" The cabinet door was closed, leaving a word "good" on the other side.

In the yard next door, a carriage then went out and headed straight for the west gate.

When he was about to arrive at the west gate, the driver saw a man waving on the side of the road. He immediately turned in the direction of the waving man and walked straight away.

The carriage left the north gate. Outside the north gate, a mule and horse merchant immediately approached: "Sir, do you want to buy a donkey?"

The mule and horse merchant whispered: "Shengping."

The coachman turned around and whispered: "Miss, we are at Shengping Inn."

"Inn? Uncle Wu, there must be something going on. Send a signal to mobilize manpower and see what this demon is going to do." The woman in the carriage said.

"Yes." The coachman nodded.

"We want thirty donkeys," the coachman said to the mule and horse merchant.

"Then we have to wait." The mule and horse merchant said as he waved to a boy, who rode away.

"Master Liu, you..." The shopkeeper of Shengping Inn was puzzled when he saw Liu An.

"It's okay, you are busy with your business." Liu An was also depressed. He knew people wherever he went. Liu An went directly into the kitchen. When he came out, his skin was dark~black and his clothes were changed into barbarian ones.

As for the costume, there is a hat on top of the head to cover the head.

The shopkeeper was puzzled when he saw Liu An's attire. Liu An said, "On the second floor, I want a plate of beef. I want it with five flavors."

"Okay." The shopkeeper immediately prepared.

Liu An was at the corner of the second floor, looking at the market opposite.

There was a market at the gate of the city, just big and small. Liu An looked into the distance and found that the two people were actually purchasing supplies.

"Salt, grain, and copper..." Liu An knew what they were selling just by looking at the appearance of the shops in the market.

"Master, your things are here." The waiter looked at Liu An and recognized him. Liu An was wandering around in the kitchen just now.

"Go to Sunji Grain Store and ask. Two middle-aged people just bought grain. Where did it go? Don't ask me." Liu An took out a broken piece of silver and said.

"Sir, I know." The waiter touched the silver and said.

Those who can work as waiters are relatively smart. The waiter came back soon. The waiter said: "Sir, I asked the waiter directly. He is from my hometown and sent to Dongjiagou."

"Yeah, don't make any noise." Liu An nodded.

"Okay." The waiter nodded. If the money is not enough, the person in front of him must not be offended.

Liu An pointed at the five-spice meat, and Duoduo immediately started working on it, three times, five times, two times, and then he finished eating.

"It seems that this sect also needs supplies. Let's go to Dongjiagou first." Liu An thought in his mind. In fact, Liu An had already guessed that the aristocratic family and the sect were always inseparable from the secular world because of supplies. Do these monks farm and hunt by themselves?

, and open mines yourself?

You are so beautiful!

Liu An asked the shopkeeper to get some dry food, and also led a donkey to the shopkeeper, and went to Dongjiagou first.

"Miss, Miss, the evil spirit changed his clothes and went northwest. If the evil spirit's shoes hadn't been exposed, I really wouldn't have noticed and walked through the back door." It was on the second floor of an inn diagonally opposite Shengping Inn.

Upstairs, a clerk from the mule and horse market hurried up and whispered.

"Bastard... let's go, I must kill that guy this time." The young lady cursed in a low voice.

Soon, a small caravan set off. This small caravan seemed to be a caravan of more than a dozen traveling merchants, and it also headed northwest.

Dongjiagou is not very far from Qinzhou Prefecture. Dongjiagou is the name of a village. There is a ravine near the village. Most of the people living here are named Dong.

Dongjiagou is only more than fifty miles away from Qinzhou Prefecture. In fact, the nearest market to Dongjiagou is only a few miles away.

Huangji is the name of this market.

"Waiter, are there any herb collectors over here in Dongjiagou?" Liu An asked as he entered a tavern and ordered two kilograms of mutton.

"There doesn't seem to be one in Dongjiagou, but there are hunters over there." The waiter said.

"Orion, is this place still far away from the mountains?" Liu An asked in confusion.

"It is said that their ancestors were hunters. A dozen or twenty of these people went out hunting together and only came back once every three to five months, but each time they harvested a lot. Dongjiagou is very wealthy here, and we recruit hunters over there.

Most of the people are young people. They bring them into the mountains, but people die every year. After the death, the people in Dongjiagou take care of the dead person's parents." The waiter said.

The tavern was fine, there was a meeting once every half month, so it was very busy, so the waiter just sat aside.

"Oh, is there anyone else going?" Liu An asked, with some guesses in his mind.

"Go, why don't you go? People will die in the war as a soldier. On average, less than one person dies a year in Dongjiagou, and even if you die, your family will still have someone to take care of you. Being a soldier is not so good," the waiter said.

"Definitely not everyone can go." Liu An said.

"Of course, they say you need to be talented and smart, but I went and said I couldn't do it," the waiter said angrily.

Liu An nodded, and then saw a small caravan on the street.

"Strange, what are these guys doing here today? The market is still about ten days away?" The waiter muttered and went to greet people, but these people went to another tavern.

The waiter's face didn't look good.

"What did you say just now?" Liu An asked.

"These caravans usually come here for the market. If they don't go to the market, there are no people there. It's even more uneconomical to go to the countryside. Could it be that they are going the wrong way." The waiter said.

When Liu An heard this, he became more discerning and looked at the other party carefully.

There is a problem!

Liu An took a closer look and found something wrong. When these merchants went in to eat, they did not put down the goods on the animals. Most people, even those on horseback, would put down the goods to let the animals rest. Moreover, these merchants were too unlikeable.

It seems that there are scattered traveling merchants, but the standard equipment of traveling merchants is a donkey. The donkey carries the goods and then walks. There are people who ride mules and bring the mules to carry the goods.

Mules and horses are more expensive to feed than donkeys, and traveling merchants will not ignore this.

Moreover, individual businessmen are really stingy, but these people gather together in small groups, as if they are here to drink and eat meat.
