The shopkeeper's wife was a thirty-year-old young woman who still had charm, but Lin Mengya could tell at a glance that this person was a big shot in women's clothing.
"Master, who is here?"
"Daughter-in-law, isn't this your maternal cousin?"
The shopkeeper's wife understood immediately and greeted her warmly.
"No, why are you free to come here today? Come in, come in."
"Cousin, my eldest brother and I have brought you something. I haven't seen you for a long time and you are more beautiful than before."
Their voices are not loud, but if the people next door are careful, they can hear them.
Everyone entered the house together, and the little boy was sitting under the eaves grinding medicine quite alertly.
In fact, he didn't let go of the neighbors' movements.
They had already figured out the temperament of the neighbors before they came here. The family on the left particularly likes to listen to others. Although the family on the right seems to be relatively serious, their men leave early every day and come home late every day, and they often take back money.
Lots of good wine and good food.
Once they went to the shopkeeper for a drink, but the shopkeeper came back and said that the man from the shop on the right got him drunk and wanted to trick him.
Fortunately, the shopkeeper was alert and had the hangover medicine distributed by the boss, otherwise he might have fallen into their trap.
From then on, the three of them became more and more careful, not daring to sleep too deeply even at night, for fear of letting others overhear something.
As soon as they entered the room, the shopkeeper and his wife immediately knelt on the ground and paid their respects to Lin Mengya.
"I've met the master of the house."
"Get up quickly. Do you know what happened in this town? Why do we need to verify our identities at all levels when we come in?"
The shopkeeper's name was Qin Zhi, and he immediately replied, "Yesterday I heard that something went wrong in the last match of the Mo family. Many people came to buy medicine in the evening. I inquired about it and said that someone in the ring deliberately hurt someone.
.
Then early this morning, someone broke in and asked me for the list of people who bought medicine last night. I just said that the people who came to buy medicine last night were all strangers, and I didn't know their names, so I was fooled.
Later I heard that they stopped many people who wanted to run at the intersection. Those people may have come to participate in the selection and were injured later.
There was quite a scene this morning, and I don’t know how many people were captured by them in the end.”
Lin Mengya lightly tapped the table, "You've done a good job. No matter what, you should try your best to remove yourself and don't get involved in this matter.
By the way, what did those people who came to buy medicine say?"
Qin Zhi thought for a while and then whispered, "I originally wanted them to send the injured here to at least check the situation. But they said that the injured were emotionally unstable, and some of the injured seemed to be running on the street.
Something doesn’t look normal.”
Although he was given some relevant medical knowledge before pretending to be the pharmacy manager, he was not a professional after all. Doctor, there are some things that he can only see roughly, but not the inside.
"Are you crazy?" Lin Mengya asked with a thought.
Qin Xian thought for a while and shook his head, "It doesn't look like it. They didn't hurt anyone, they just ran around on the street, and they didn't resist much when they were caught by their family members."
Perhaps, this is why the Mo family tried every means to capture these people.
But before she left, she also checked the bodies of Sister Yanyan and Brother-in-law Hua, and there were no problems. It seemed that there must be something fishy in this that she didn't know about.
Qin Xian is a very clever person, and he is the leader among the three.
Lin Mengya told him a few words, and then left with Qinghu.
With this aboveboard status, they don't have to worry about external inspections.
She also told Qin Xian about her agreement with Liu Yanyan's family.
If there is any news, please get it to her as soon as possible.
Qin Xian agreed immediately and then protected the two of them from leaving.
The streets were indeed much deserted than the day they arrived.
Lin Mengya also saw suspected blood stains on the road.
She did not walk over, but chose to walk around like most people, but she still turned on the system to detect it.
"Master, no traces of drugs were found inside."
Xiao Yao quickly gave feedback.
This is strange.
There are no traces of drugs, and you can still run around in the streets after being so seriously injured?
Perhaps, there was something they overlooked yesterday that led to this situation.
The pharmacy is right in the middle of town.
The two inns are on the other side of town.
As they walked over, Lin Mengya happened to see a lot of familiar fabrics placed in the courtyards of the two inns.
"It seems to be our tent."
She pulled Qinghu's rest and whispered.
"Well, that's right."
It was strange. She remembered that she didn't seem to have sold any inn tents. Why did they have so many?
Moreover, what is the purpose of setting up tents at the inn?
Soon, they left the town.
They were also very strict when they came out here. Fortunately, Lin Mengya and Qinghu could withstand the investigation, and with Qin Zhi as a guarantee, they were soon let out.
"Cousin, cousin-in-law, please take care of yourself!"
she maintains
By putting on a stuttering persona, you are actually secretly observing the behavior of those people.
At first, she thought these were sent by the Mo family, but soon she realized something was wrong.
She felt a little awkward between these people, it didn't feel like they had collaborated many times.
It's more like joining forces to supervise and restrict each other.
For example, three people must come together to investigate the same person.
The three people asked almost the same questions, and they had to be answered again and again, which was really not a normal phenomenon.
Qin Xian sent the two of them off and then left.
Lin Mengya and Qinghu also followed this path and walked in the direction of their camp.
Not long after, we met a group of people on the road.
The two quickly hid in the woods, but Lin Mengya saw the man on the horse.
It's Yu Qing.
But she was in a bit of a bad state today.
She seemed to have been wronged in some way, her eyes were red, she must have cried.
Riding on the horse, he was right next to Mr. Sun.
Moreover, her horse's reins were still in Master Sun's hand, and Yu Qing also had a small string of bells on her feet.
Lin Mengya remembered that this girl did not have such jingling decorations before.
Mr. Sun seemed a little embarrassed and sighed, "Okay, A-Qing, it's all my cousin's fault. I shouldn't have taken care of you like this, but it's too chaotic outside. You girl can't just run around.
Be obedient, and when the things here are finished, my cousin will take you home, okay?"
Yu Qing gritted her teeth and stared at her cousin.
"It's obviously you who locked me up and didn't let me go back! I want to go home! I want to go back to the sect! I will never come here again!"
Yu Qing cried softly, looking like a willful young lady.
But Lin Mengya saw the girl's hand, secretly picking up the bell on her ankle.
"You are a big girl, you shouldn't be so willful. Besides, who is my cousin doing this for? Isn't it for you?"
"If you are really good for me, you should let me go. I don't want to bring this useless thing! Cousin, I hurt, I really hurt!"
Yu Qing really cried again.
pain?
Lin Mengya soon noticed that the girl just pulled it out twice, and there were little red blood stains on her ankle shoes.
Could it be that this bell is not worn on the feet, but!
"You're disobedient again, aren't you? My cousin said that when the things here are finished, I will remove this bell for you.
If you want to pull it yourself If you go down, your feet will never be able to walk again."
Mr. Sun's expression was slightly cold and his tone was a little impatient.
Yu Qing bit her lip and did not dare to cry again.
But her back was always straight, like an unyielding little beast.
Seeing her like this, Young Master Sun sighed and said to the woman behind him, "Go and change your senior sister's shoes and socks. A-Qing, I don't want to see you get hurt either. If the trouble continues, there's nothing I can do about it."
Protect you."
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately got off her horse and took out clean shoes and socks from her luggage.
Yu Qing sat on the horse and was forced to take off her shoes and socks.
Only then did Lin Mengya see that the bell that looked like a decoration was actually embedded directly into Yu Qing's ankle bone.
When changing shoes, the protruding part can be unscrewed, and there are specially reserved holes in the shoes and socks.
However, this is undoubtedly a huge torture and humiliation for Yu Qing.
"This is the 'Qiao Nu Bell', haha, I didn't expect to see something like this here."
Beside Lin Mengya, Qinghu said the name of the thing without expression.
She looked at him and silently squeezed his hand.
"This girl is finished. If Qiaonu Bell cannot be taken off as soon as possible, she will be disabled in the future. So this thing is also called 'Palm Pet'.
Ha, disgusting."
The so-called pampering actually means forcibly controlling people's freedom, destroying people's self-esteem, and turning a good person into a slave.
Moreover, the ring of bells will grow and die in the bones, but the bells outside can be replaced.
It just requires the wearer to endure tremendous pain every time.
But once you put it on, whether you are walking around or in bed, the bell will keep vibrating with your ankle.
I don’t know what Young Master Sun thought about using this vicious method of torturing people, but he actually used it on Yu Qing.
Soon, under the crowd's watch, Yu Qing let her snow-white feet stay naked with a bloodless expression, becoming the target of those people's molestation.
She wanted to kill everyone.
But the most damning thing is her cousin!
Sensing Yu Qing's grief and anger but feeling helpless, Mr. Sun was obviously very happy.
He patted Yu Qing's head.
"My cousin loves you the most, so of course he won't harm you. If you behave well from now on, my cousin will definitely not let you suffer."
Yu Qing breathed a sigh of relief and almost fell down on the horse.
But she still tried to sit up straight, even though her face was soaked with sweat.
