What the female disciple said about finding out was actually referring to the matter of the Xianhun Sect.
Ever since Lin Tongxi gave her the tip, she had people closely monitor Zhao Erfu's whereabouts.
Today, Chengtian Academy's tracking finally paid off. Zhao Erfu, who has always been low-key, unexpectedly came to Wucaotang, a medicine shop in this town, for the first time.
"How many times has he been to Wucaotang before?" Ding Hanling asked, wondering if Wucaotang was the Xianhun Sect's contact point in the town.
According to the female disciple, Zhao Erfu has been going in and out of Baicaotang frequently in the past few days, but strangely, he does not look sick.
"Okay, then we will also make Baicaotang a key focus next time!" Ding Hanling gave the order immediately.
After reporting the situation, Ding Hanling walked out and found that the brilliant light in the direction of Qingshi Village had disappeared.
"Zhao Erfu is from Qingshi Village... and this light seems to be coming from the direction of Qingshi Village... Lin Tongxi has requested that the villagers of Qingshi Village be transferred to Huxiao Village... Qingshi Village has appeared so many times. Could it be that this village has some secret?"
Ding Hanling pondered for a moment and decided to send someone to investigate after the influx of refugees ended.
On the other side, Zhao Erfu quickly packed up his things and prepared to disguise himself as refugees with the owner of Wucaotang and others to sneak out of the city.
Just now, Du Wuchen, the owner of Wucaotang, asked him to rush to the store overnight.
When asked what happened, Du Wuchen refused to say anything. He only said that something big had happened and the entire structure of the Xianhun Sect might be changed.
"Could it be Zongzi..." Zhao Erfu, who had experienced the Yuwan Rebellion, then remembered that Zongzi was also in Yuwan City.
Du Wuchen smiled and said nothing more, simply saying: "Are you thirsty? Have some tea."
Zhao Erfu didn't think much about it and drank the liquid in front of him. He felt extremely refreshed and all his troubles were eliminated in an instant, like a panacea.
"Brother Du, where does this tea come from?" Zhao Erfu couldn't help but ask. This was the first time he had tasted such delicious tea.
"Western Regions." Du Wuchen said the two words lightly.
After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Zhao Erfu took the medicine and left Wucaotang.
After sending Zhao Erfu away, Du Wuchen sneered, "Idiot... You didn't even realize you were being followed."
"Well, we've gathered enough intelligence here, it's time to evacuate."
…………
Late at night, in Ruihe Town, residents living near Wucaotang smelled a burning smell.
"Fire!"
People nearby rushed to put out the fire, but the fire was too big and no matter how hard they tried, it was a drop in the bucket.
By the time Ding Hanling and his men arrived, there wasn't much left in Wucaotang. The owner's body had been burned beyond recognition, and the other items had been reduced to ashes.
"Senior Sister, Zhao Erfu is dead!" the female disciple whispered into Ding Hanling's ear.
Without thinking too much, she immediately took her people to the inn.
Li Chen Erfu's death was very strange. He actually died by scratching his throat!
Everything seems so weird...
On the other side, the wife of the owner of Wucaotang also came to report the case, saying that her house had been robbed and her silver was missing.
And the amount she reported matched the silver in Zhao Erfu's package...
Ding Hanling found this matter very strange, but the government did not have the energy to investigate it, so they hurriedly closed the case and determined that the two had killed each other.
Zhao Erfu and Du Wuchen are old acquaintances. The latter was threatened by the former, and Du Wuchen could not bear it and finally beat him up.
After knocking Shopkeeper Du unconscious and getting the silver, Zhao Erfu became furious and threw a fire into Wucaotang.
But who knew that Manager Du secretly poisoned Zhao Erfu, causing him to suffer an epileptic seizure and eventually scratch his throat.
“…” Ding Hanling looked at the files again and again, trying to find clues.
Just then, Gan Xingfan came and asked Ding Hanling to take people to inspect Qingshi Village.
Before leaving, Lin Tongxi talked to Gan Xingfan about the signal gun.
Seeing a signal means that support from government troops is needed.
Seeing two signals means that the refugees are causing chaos but have been successfully suppressed, and people need to be sent to maintain order.
Obviously, Qingshi Village is the latter.
Ding Hanling nodded, put down the case file and left the chair.
This case was too confusing, so she decided to go out and relax.
On the other side, in Qingshi Village, Chen Yunxuan was directing everyone to clean up the mess and restore order.
When new refugees arrived, Ben asked the villagers for help to feed them some food, but he saw the villagers moving corpses, which scared a lot of them away.
"..." Chen Yunxuan glanced at Lin Tongxi and found that he was chewing gum as if nothing had happened.
He's simply a gum-chewing maniac!
"Brother Tongxi, should we tell them the truth?" Chen Yunxuan said.
Lin Tongxi didn't care and objected: "Forget it, it's just right that they are not coming. We can also save some food."
"Taking the initiative to explain makes you look guilty."
"Why don't we clean up the bodies on the ground quickly and make the environment better? We can't keep seeing corpses on the road."
After listening to Lin Tongxi's words, Chen Yunxuan also felt that it made sense, so he concentrated on cleaning up the battlefield.
Not long after the cleaning was completed, Zhou Tiezhu came over with a thin young man.
His eyes were dull and his body was thin, like a bag of bones.
"Brothers, this young man is called Zhisheng. I just found him in the old lady's house." Zhou Tiezhu explained, and then asked Zhisheng to talk about the actions of the mob this morning.
"Brothers! I really didn't think of joining them! But if I don't join them, I will die!" Zhisheng begged for mercy while crying bitterly.
"Why are you crying, man? Come on and get to the point!" Zhou Tiezhu said impatiently.
