Chapter 199: Another Brainstorm

Solving the Mystery …. Find out?

The people present all showed ecstatic colors, but also felt incredulous, how to do ah, obviously not a clue.

Such a headless case, he easily solved the mystery, obviously everyone involved in the case, all had a discussion. The same information, the same clues, everyone was confused, why did he solve it?

Is the Xu Ning Banquet really as horrible as it is.

In the “Wen girl get married” crossword puzzle Zhang governor, a shock, broke the seal, ecstatic tugging Xu Qi’an’s arm, at this moment, the old Zhang lost the governor’s posture, one after another to ask questions:

“You solved the mystery? Really, really?”

At this point I’m going to say: lie to you da…I guess I’ll be beaten to death …. Xu Qi’an got up and headed out, “At least there’s a major breakthrough.”

As the eyes of the crowd watched, he went to the yard of the stagecoach, drew the map of the kamikaze from the hanging bag of his horse, and returning to the lobby, spread it out on the table.

“The mystery of the word puzzle lies in the map of the geomancy.” Xu Qi’an pressed his hands against the map, looked up and around the crowd, and explained:

“Merely relying on a jade pendant alone would not convey the message, Zhou Min would find a way for Mrs. Ying Ying to bring more information, but in order to keep it a secret, he adopted the charades method. He concealed it from everyone, including Mrs. Ying Ying.

“But with Ziyangjuushi’s wisdom, all he needs to do is ask carefully, and he will surely be able to break through the secret of the anagram.”

“Then why is the secret of the crossword puzzle in the kanji map?” Zhu Guangxiao asked with a frown.

“Because the map of geomancy is the easiest thing to obtain, and something that Ziyang Jushi, who is coming to Yunzhou for the first time, is bound to get his hands on.” Xu Qi’an replied.

Yes, the map of geomancy is available in the stage, the first time to come to the country, get a map of geomancy is the first choice …. The crowd suddenly realized.

“Whether my reasoning is right or wrong, let’s all come together to verify.” Xu Qi’an looked down at the map, “The five fonts provided by the crossword puzzle are: Si, Bo, Sue, Huang, and Ming.”

The crowd clattered to the table and joined him in looking at the map.

This map of geomancy unfolded and covered almost the entire desktop, encompassing the entire White Emperor City. A street, a building, lakes, bridges, government offices, and so on, were all marked on it.

The crowd searched for the appropriate name while silently chanting those five words.

Song Tingfeng suddenly pointed somewhere, “Siming Bridge!”

People’s eyes then fell on the spot where his finger was pointing, where the outline of an arched bridge was outlined, and the small letters of the fly signified: the Siming Bridge.

The other gong whirled around and pointed to another spot, “There’s a Wong Pak Street here.”

The words “sue” and “emperor” have no corresponding locations, especially the word “emperor”, which is so taboo that it is not found on the entire map.

“The clue is most likely in one of these two locations.” Xu Qi’an analyzed.

“The two remaining words didn’t work?” Someone asked.

“The other words could be a cover-up, watered down and mixed in. Don’t worry about it for now, wait until we search these two places and see if there are any gains.” Xu Qi’an said.

Inspector Zhang selected six night watchmen and changed into civilian clothes to go to Huang Bo Street to investigate the situation, while Xu Qi’an brought along Zhu Guangxiao and Song Tingfeng, his two best friends, to go to Siming Bridge to explore the situation.

Huang Bo Street is not far from the post, more than ten miles away. Simingqiao, on the other hand, was fully twenty miles away.

The three of them galloped their horses furiously through the wide streets, and along the way, the attics and mansions had obvious southern characteristics, with white walls and tiles, and the yards liked to plant loquat trees.

Loquat is one of the specialties of Yunzhou.

In addition, the style of dress of the people is also extremely different from that of the capital, where it is much more free and there are little yellow people everywhere.

And while in the capital, bright yellow fabric was reserved for royalty, in Yunzhou Xu Qi’an saw several passersby wearing bright yellow robes.

“Although the ethos is different from place to place, isn’t the imperial court’s control over Yunzhou too weak?” Xu Qiyin was worried.

“The climate over here in Yunzhou can be unbearable, it’s damp and cold.” Song Tingfeng frowned.

“It’s better in the capital, it’s a bit colder, but it’s not as creepy. When I sent the traveling merchants back today, I saw passersby shivering while walking.” Zhu Guangxiao spoke.

“The two of you are like wolves from the north that came to the south and froze into Erha.” Xu Qi’an laughed out loud. Of course, Qi Practicing Realm martial artists were already impervious to cold and heat, and he was purely flirting.

…. The two looked at him blankly, what was Erha?

In fact, in this day and age, the winter in the south was much better than in the north, and poor families, who gathered up straw in the winter and had a shelter from the wind and rain, were able to survive the winter.

The North is different, many poor people in the North who cannot afford charcoal die silently in the winter.

After all, there’s no heat in the north of Daebong.

One more thing, when you ride a horse in the south in the winter, you ride and the snotty water comes out of your nose. When you ride a horse in the north in the winter, you ride and your nose is useless.

Half an hour later, they arrived at their destination.

Collapsing over a small river, Siming Bridge is an arch bridge with two large and two small holes, carved out of alabaster and covered with moss.

The three of them scrutinized the bridge for a long time, and finally, Xu Qi’an’s gaze locked onto the outside of the bridge, a protruding stone brick.

Two fingers pinched the stone brick and slowly tugged it outward, little by little, pulling out the slate-sized stone brick.

He reached into the brick hole for a moment and fumbled with a pouch.

Sure enough, it was the broach that prevented the stone tiles from fitting tightly.

“There really is something!” Song Tingfeng was overjoyed and leaned in close, urging, “Open it and see what it is.”

Xu Qi’an opened the brocade bag, inside was a note, unfolding the note, it read:

One hundred and one hundred and twenty-two

Three hundred and forty-seven thousand one hundred and twenty-two.

Mer, 162. 347, 4, 1, 2 …. What do these two sets of numbers mean …. Crap, Zhou Min is really fucking talented…too fancy …. It’s a pity that the person is already dead…Xu Qi’an stared at the note and fell into silence.

Song Tingfeng and Zhu Guangxiao glanced at each other, and the former said blankly, “What does it mean oh?”

“How do I know!” Xu Qi’an replied without a good mood, “Same as a night watchman, why is the difference so big? Look at someone else, a darkie, much better than you two, no comparison, no comparison…”

“The Dark Sons themselves are the best, each with their own specialties, otherwise how would they do the infiltration mission.” Song Tingfeng Dao defiantly defended:

“We, the magistrate’s watchmen, are only responsible for force.”

Darkie belongs to the talents with special skills, or is thoughtful or smart, while the night watchman in the government office is only responsible for violent output, the two are different.

At this point, it was nearing dusk.

Xu Qi’an collected the note and helplessly said, “Go back first.”

What awaited them…no, what awaited him, would be another brainstorm.

…..

Stagecoach.

Because Wong Pak Street was closer to the stagecoach station, the night watchman who had gone to this street to find out what was going on had returned with disheartening news.

“No discovery? Did you guys probe properly?” Inspector Zhang questioned.

“There aren’t many people on that street in the daytime, and when I asked the residents on the next street, I realized it was a dog market. The market is only open at night, and there is no one at all at this time.”

Cauldron, who had gone to scout, replied glumly.

A street is not too big, not too small, so what can be gained by going in like a fly without a head? I asked everyone if they knew Zhou Min Zhou from the Commanding General’s Office.

“Hey!” The crowd of watchmen burst into a fit of discouragement, shaking their heads.

Governor Zhang drank a mouthful of tea, sat for a few moments, could not sit, pacing back and forth in the lobby.

Huang Bo Street has no clues, so now we can only wait for news from Xu Ningyan’s side. If they don’t find out either, then the case goes back to square one.

They’re still standing still.

“There must be a harvest, otherwise it will really become a headless case…” muttered Inspector Zhang.

His mutterings entered the ears of several silver gongs and Jiang Ruizhong word for word.

“They’re back.” The gong in the doorway position voiced out in surprise.

The group of people moved in a neat and synchronized manner as they turned their heads and looked towards the doorway, watching Xu Qi’an return with two of his fellow officers.

“Well?” Jiang Lizhong asked in a hurry.

Inspector Zhang’s hand under his sleeve robe was clenched into a fist, staring at them expectantly and nervously.

Xu Qi’an took out the note and placed it on the table, and in a flash, a dozen hands reached out together.

Snap!

Jiang Ruizhong slapped away all the claws and snatched it up with a rush, unfolding the creed to take a look and frowning again:

“What does it say?”

Well, it s not the code word for the night watchman s yamen …. Xu Qi An made a judgment.

“Let me see!” Inspector Zhang darted over and snatched the note with a split hand, the paper was written with two sets of numbers:

One hundred and one hundred and twenty-two

Three hundred and forty-seven thousand one hundred and twenty-two.

Inspector Zhang fell into a prolonged state of prohibition, his mind flashing through a book of sages he had read, before ruling out the option of echoing the book’s allusions.

This is the same as the “Wen girl married”, are bullying title …. As Zhang was agonizing over the situation, he saw Xu Qi’an going upstairs in silence.

“Ning Banquet, what are you going to do?”

Xu Qi’an turned back on the stairs, listless, “Go back to your room and observe, or else I feel like I’ll die suddenly at any moment. Well, I haven’t slept in twelve days.”

“!!!” Jiang Lunzhong’s eyebrows jumped hard.

He already knew that Xu Qi’an was impacting the God Refining Realm, and back then on the canal Xu Qi’an had asked a similar question: how to impact the God Refining Realm.

In the past few days, looking at his dark circles under his eyes deepening, Jiang Lizhong guessed that this kid may be impacting the God Refining Realm, just don’t know how many days he liver.

Twelve days ah, twelve days and still haven’t broken the limit, there was a fight in the middle …..

This meant that Xu Qi’an’s Yuan Shen had great, very great potential, and that his Yuan Shen would receive a qualitative change if he stepped into the God Refining Realm.

Jiang Lizhong himself when he first promoted to the God Refining Realm, he stayed up for sixteen days, and the other golden gongs were not very different.

“Looking at this kid, twelve days is obviously not the limit, I wonder how long he can last in one breath.” Thinking of this, Jiang Ruizhong said in a deep voice, “Remember not to fall asleep.”

Returning to his room, Xu Qi’an took off his shoes and sat down on the bed, exhaling and practicing qi while visualizing the Giant Diagram and occasionally converting the Golden Lion Roaring Diagram.

In the midst of getting into the swing of things, I suddenly heard a knock on the door.

“What is it.” He opened his eyes.

“Ning Banquet, in better shape?” Inspector Zhang’s voice came from the doorway, and after receiving Xu Qi’an’s affirmative reply, he whirled around:

“Come with me to the dinner party and meet the Yunzhou officialdom for a while.”
