Chapter 369 The Martial Spirit Branch Here Will Eat People!
After a day of traveling.
The two finally arrived at a town at sunset.
"Wulin Town?"
Xin Ya raised her eyes, tilted her head and looked at the plaque above the town entrance and asked: "Brother Ling, does this name mean that it is adjacent to Wuhun City?"
Guang Ling drove the horse into the town and nodded: "Yes, this town is under the jurisdiction of our Wuhun City."
"Are there any cities under the jurisdiction of your Wuhun City?" Xin Ya asked.
"Yes."
Guang Ling explained: "There are three cities, but they are all in the southwest and southeast of the other side. There is only this town in the north."
"My elder brother told me to check the situation of the Wuhun Branch Hall here when I arrived in Wulin Town, because I found that there was a problem with the taxes they paid recently, so I went to check it out."
"You have to check the taxes!"
Xin Ya thought for a while and said: "Then is there anyone trustworthy in the Wuhun Branch Hall of Wulin Town? If not, it will be difficult to check."
Guang Ling smiled and stretched out his hand to dote on her little face: "Smart! Of course there is. Do you remember Bober who guards the horse farm in the military camp?"
Xin Ya nodded.
Guang Ling continued, "Bo Bo's son, Bo Gao, is currently one of the deacons of the Wuling Town Wuhun Branch Hall."
Xin Ya understood, "When I went to the horse farm to see Ada and Mengmeng, I often heard Uncle Fu mention his son. Every time he mentioned him, his face was filled with smiles."
"At that time, he said that his son was far away from him and it was difficult to see him, but now it seems that he is not far away!"
Guang Ling said, "It was indeed far away."
"Bo Gao's talent is not good, but he is hardworking and diligent. It happened that the Wuhun Branch Hall here was short of a deacon at that time, so I used my connections to transfer him over. ”
The little girl raised her eyebrows and said, "Master Fifth Lord, you are giving it to me privately!"
The man hugged her tightly, bit her little face, and said with a smile, "Yes, I am giving it to you privately."
"If the wife of the Fifth Lord knows, will you write a letter back to the Great Lord and report your fiancé?"
Xin Ya smiled and dodged his bite and said, "Since he is my fiancé, I will follow his example and give it to you privately."
"You little thing, you said I am a dog!"
Guang Ling tickled her and hugged her and kissed her. The two of them rode A Da to the center of the town.
The town is not big. If outsiders come, everyone can see it at a glance, so everyone around them looked at them sideways.
However, Wulin Town is close to Wuhun City, and some soul masters often pass through the town, so the people are not surprised!
It's just that Xin Ya and Guang Ling have extraordinary temperaments, especially Guang Ling is different from the soul masters who usually pass by, so they will attract the attention of the people in the town!
Xin Ya held his hand and said, "Brother Ling, I'm hungry."
Guang Ling said lovingly, "Then let's go eat first, and ask where the Wuhun branch hall is."
Xin Ya nodded.
Soon, the two found a relatively large and well-decorated restaurant. Although this is a town, it is quite prosperous because it is close to Wuhun City.
And because most of the people passing by are wealthy soul masters, the restaurants here are no worse than those in the city.
Walk into the restaurant.
The boss who was counting money at the front desk saw that Xin Ya and Guang Ling had extraordinary temperaments, and knew that they must be rich people, so he immediately greeted them with a smile.
Guang Ling said, "Private room."
"Okay."
The boss turned around and led the way flatteringly: "Two distinguished guests, please follow me."
Inside the private room.
After Xin Ya ordered the dishes, she asked, "Boss, where is the Wuhun branch in your town?"
"It's a magnificent building in the northernmost part of the town."
After that, the boss asked carefully, "I know you two are soul masters, but because you are soul masters, I advise you not to go to that Wuhun branch!"
Xin Ya asked curiously, "Why not go? Boss, do you know something? Can you tell me?"
The boss hesitated for a moment, then turned around and closed the door of the box, walked back to Xin Ya and said, "There is a problem with the Wuhun branch in our town."
Xin Ya said, and continued to ask with interest, "What's the problem?!"
The boss said a little scared, "The Wuhun branch in our town will... eat people!!!"
Xin Ya frowned and said, "Tell me more specifically."
Guang Ling narrowed his ice-blue eyes slightly and looked at the boss.
But at this time, the boss didn't dare to say anything. He hesitated and obviously wanted to leave.
Xin Ya immediately took out a small bag of gold soul coins from the system space and put it on the dining table.
She pushed the bag of gold soul coins in front of the boss: "Boss, there are fifty gold soul coins in this small bag. Tell me everything you know!"
Fifty gold soul coins!!!
This is the living expenses of an ordinary family of three for a year!
The boss looked at the bag of gold soul coins, swallowed his saliva, and after some hesitation, he risked it for money!
He took the bag of gold soul coins and began to say: "Because our town is close to Wuhun City, there are often many soul masters passing by."
"And the Wuhun Branch Hall here posted a notice saying that all soul masters passing through our town can stay in the Wuhun Branch Hall without charging any money, just to provide convenience for soul masters!"
"Originally, this was a good thing, and it also attracted many soul masters passing through the town to visit the Wuhun Branch Hall, but since five years ago, all soul masters who entered the Wuhun Branch Hall have disappeared inexplicably!"
"Missing?!"
Xin Ya said, "Could it be that the soul masters left on their own the next morning, and you just didn't see them."
The boss said, "We thought so at first, but one time a few brave children saw a soul master coming to town again, and out of curiosity they secretly followed the soul master to the outside of the Wuhun Branch Hall."
"The children hid in the bushes far outside the hall gate. Because the children were small, the guards at the door did not find them, and the children had been staring at the soul master since he entered the Wuhun Branch Hall."
"They were alone One person took a break and took turns watching. The soul master was not seen until the next day. Later, one of the children could not stay and went home, but the child went to play somewhere else and forgot about the other children. "
"As a result, one day later, it was reported that the children were also missing. The parents of the missing children reported the case. The mayor and several guards investigated but did not find any clues. "
"The missing children were not found, and no one knew whether they were dead or alive. Later, the case had to be left unresolved!"
Xin Ya and Guang Ling frowned after hearing this.
The little girl looked at the boss and asked, "How do you know these things? And you know them in such detail!"
"I..."
The boss suddenly became nervous and held the small bag of gold soul coins tightly with both hands.
Xin Ya curled her lips and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the child who ran away halfway is your son!"
"Later, other children disappeared, and you guessed that it might be done by the people in the Wuhun Branch Hall. You were afraid that your son would also get into trouble, so you kept your mouth shut and dared not tell anyone what your son knew, right?"
The boss knelt down with a plop and begged, "Miss, I beg you, don't tell anyone about this, otherwise my son's life will be gone!"
Xin Ya said lightly, "Okay, we promise not to tell anyone, let's serve the dishes quickly!"
"Thank you."
The boss immediately stood up and turned to leave the box.
Xin Ya touched her chin, "It seems that there is a big problem with the Wuhun Branch Hall here!"
Guang Ling said, "I originally wanted to go to the Wuhun Branch Hall after dinner, and stay there tonight to check the account book."
"Now that this has happened, it's not easy to stay there. Let's stay in a hotel and go and see the situation tomorrow."
Xin Ya nodded.
