Chapter 593 Women's Intuition
The next morning.
When it was almost dawn, three carriages had already stopped at the door of the inn.
The six lanterns at the gate were still emitting a faint red light, but the woman and all the "workers" in the store had already passed away, and their bodies were casually dumped in the backyard.
Wei Changtian and others were too lazy to even dig a hole to bury them.
The same thing happened to the other bandits who died last night. More than a thousand bodies were left unattended.
Fortunately, it is winter now, otherwise the whole Zhongling City would probably be able to smell the smell of blood and corpses.
"Tell the Tanzhou government office about what happened last night."
Coming out of the inn, Wei Changtian said to Zhang San who was waiting by the carriage, "Tell them to send someone to clean it up."
"Yes, sir."
Zhang San responded and stretched out his hand to open the curtain: "I will send a message to Master Chu later. He should be able to contact the governor of Tanzhou."
"Um."
Nodding, Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi bent down and got into the carriage.
"Let's go, leave the city from the south gate."
“.”
“Gurgle gurgle.”
The sound of the wheels rolling over the uneven road was particularly clear.
It is now the end of the Mao hour. If it were Shuzhou City, it should have been bustling a long time ago.
But the streets of Zhongling City were still deserted and extremely quiet.
Even if there were individual pedestrians, they all lowered their heads and walked hurriedly, and their eyes were filled with surprise and fear when they looked at the three carriages.
It seems that the news that the bandits are dead has not spread yet, and most people don’t know what happened last night.
Of course, if this kind of thing really spreads, it will spread very quickly. I estimate that everyone should know about it by tonight at the latest.
I don’t know what the people of Zhongling felt after hearing the news. Will they erect a stone sculpture or a monument for Wei Changtian?
To them, the mysterious swordsman who "sees injustice and draws his sword to eliminate evil" is Zhongling's great benefactor and the great hero who rescued them from dire straits.
But for Wei Changtian, this was just a trivial matter.
If he had not been to Zhongling before and had met the thin county magistrate once, he might not have cared about this matter now.
After all, compared with future wars, a few bandits are really not worth mentioning.
Just like Wei Xianzhi and Qin Caizhen.
Apart from asking a few casual questions during breakfast, they didn't show any further concern for the matter.
There are also poems about willows.
She didn't care much about the bandits or the common people, but was quite interested in the girl.
"Sir, you clearly promised that girl that you would go through the East Gate, but you really had the heart to lie to her."
Sitting in the carriage, although Yang Liushi said this, there was a smile on her face, and it was obvious that she was joking.
"The girl must be waiting for you at the East Gate right now. She will be so sad if she can't see you."
"It can be seen from this that men's words cannot be trusted."
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what you said is not right."
Wei Changtian lazily leaned against the car window and said with a smile: "It's not just men, women's words are the same, they can't be trusted."
"Who said that?"
Yang Liushi raised her head and protested: "I swear to God, I have never lied to you, sir."
"But you have deceived others."
Wei Changtian smiled and said, "That's not wrong."
"That's right."
Yang Liushi paused, and suddenly asked, "Sir, have you ever lied to me?"
"Well, let me think about it."
Touching his nose, Wei Changtian pretended to be thinking seriously, which made Yang Liushi laugh again.
"Hehe, don't think about it, sir."
"Even if it's a lie, I can only accept my fate as miserable. I can't change another man."
"You're still suffering?"
Wei Changtian curled his lips and said, "You can grow up like this, your life is much better than most women in the world."
"Sir, that's right."
"Luckily, I was a fox before. If I were a monkey or something like that, I would have a miserable life."
Yang Liushi has never been modest about her appearance, especially in front of Wei Changtian.
The two chatted and joked for a while, and the topic returned to the girl from last night.
"Sir, do you think that girl really made the right bet?"
"What do you think?"
"I can't guess."
"It's not hard to guess."
Wei Changtian turned his head and glanced outside the car: "She is probably waiting at the East Gate now."
"Well, I originally thought so, but..."
Yang Liushi covered her mouth and smiled: "But I always feel that she will be right."
"Why?"
"intuition."
"Women's intuition?"
"Yes, I am not a man, so it is natural for me to have a woman's intuition."
It was obvious that Yang Liushi didn't understand Wei Changtian's joke about the previous life, but she didn't take it to heart. She soon smiled and sat closer.
"Sir, why don't we make a bet?"
"Bet on whether she is at the South Gate?"
"OK."
"What's the bet?"
"this."
Yang Liushi pondered for a moment, and then a rare blush appeared on her face.
"Sir, if I lose, then..."
She whispered a few words into Wei Changtian's ear, which immediately aroused the latter's interest.
"OK!"
Wei Changtian slapped his thigh fiercely: "It's settled!"
"Goose, goose, goose, if you lose, you have to complete a poem for me."
"Complete?"
"Yes, there are two lines in the poem: May we live long and share the beauty of the moon, even though we are thousands of miles apart."
"Hmm? Where did you hear this poem?"
"The young master recited it himself."
"I recited it?"
"Yes, when the young master first went to Shuzhou, he got drunk once and recited it at that time."
“Is that so.”
Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment, and after careful recollection he realized that it seemed to be true.
That day was his birthday in his previous life, and he felt sad so he drank a little more.
I didn’t expect that I could even recite “Song of Water Melody” by accident. “Okay, if I really lose, I will complete this poem.”
A quarter of an hour later.
The red sun in the east has completely jumped out of the horizon, thin clouds are floating in the sky, and the earth is golden.
Three carriages slowly stopped inside the city gate, but no soldiers guarding the city came to question them.
Because they have become corpses lying on the ground.
"Whoa!"
After reining in the horses, Zhang San and two other servants jumped off the carriage and walked to the city gate to move the barricades blocking the road.
Wei Changtian and Yang Liushi got off the carriage and looked around.
It was quiet all around. Not only were there no girls, but even ordinary people were nowhere to be seen.
"Hahaha, I won!"
Wei Changtian crossed his arms and said proudly, "It seems that you won't be able to hear that poem for a while."
"The young master won"
Yang Liushi nodded with some regret, not knowing whether he was regretting the fate of the girl or regretting not being able to hear "Song of Water Melody".
"Okay, let's go."
After taking a look at Zhang San who had moved the barricades away and was walking back, Wei Changtian turned around and got on the car.
Yang Liushi looked around a few more times and indeed did not see anyone, so she returned to the car.
A few horses neighed loudly, and the wheels soon started rolling again.
However, just as the carriage passed through the city gate, Yang Liushi, who had been looking out, suddenly exclaimed.
"Zhang San!"
"Stop the car now!"
