Plane Mall: I became a group favorite by hoarding goods

Chapter 80 80. The Current Situation of the City
Zhuangzi originally had many servants of the Zhou family living there.

It's just that when the two of them arrived, they only met a few skinny servants with fierce eyes, and they were not kind people at first glance.

Now he has been knocked unconscious to the ground.

Cheng Xi said that he played without any psychological burden.

"Where does this secret passage lead to?"

After all, it won't be the prefect's mansion.

Shen Xingluo's next words confirmed her guess, "Zhou Lesong lives in a house on the East Street, where he kept an outhouse."

Ah, this week's family is more or less hereditary.

"Zhuang Kun confessed again?"

"."

Shen Xingluo responded with silence.

Cheng Xi took it as a default, and took an oil lamp from the side and walked into the secret passage first.

It is quite a distance from Zhuangzi to Fucheng, and the secret road is narrow and dark, even if there are lighting equipment, it is a bit stumbling.

I really miss the flashlight in the space~
The two walked for about half an hour, and found that the secret passage was getting wider and wider, from the original only allowing one person to pass through to two people.

"It's almost there, watch the road carefully."

Shen Xingluo passed her sideways and walked to the front, "Give me the oil lamp."

Cheng Xi was startled, and passed the thing in his hand.

This time it only took a few minutes, and the originally flat road in front turned into three-meter-high stone steps.

The two knew they had reached the exit.

"Did Zhuang Kun say where the exit of the secret passage is located?"

"The bedroom in the outer room."

"?"

Inexplicably, Cheng Xi thought of the bedroom of the wife of the third head of Qingshan Village, and always felt that there was a slight similarity between the two.

Is there something wrong with you ancients?
Shouldn't the secret room passages be set up in one's own bedroom or study room, and only one person knows?

This is how much you trust the person next to your pillow to share your secrets!
outrageous.

Shen Xingluo listened quietly for a moment, making sure that there was no sound coming from outside, and slowly pushed open the wooden door, a faint light came in from outside.

He blew out the oil lamp and went out, Cheng Xi followed one step behind.

What catches the eye is a screen embroidered with pictures of flowers and birds. The person on the bed behind the screen cannot be seen clearly through the light gauze.

The owner of the room was already asleep, and there was a night watch girl beside the bed who was sleeping in a mess.

The light comes from lanterns hanging outside the room.

The two restored the entrance of the secret passage without disturbing them, and planned to turn out through the window.

But Cheng Xi froze when he caught a glimpse of the sleeping person on the bed, with a look of shock on his face.

This woman looks too much like the beautiful woman who handed over the wooden box automatically!
Shen Xingluo just glanced at her and knew what she was thinking when he saw her shocked.

"This woman and Zhuang Kun's wife are biological sisters. They used to be the top names in Cuihonglou in Lin'an Prefecture. One is good at piano and the other is good at dancing."

Cheng Xi: "."

Good guy.

It turns out they are still brothers-in-law!

Zhou Lesong's method of collecting people's hearts is not a simple answer, he is giving money and women, who would not follow him wholeheartedly?
It's just that cleverness is mistaken by cleverness.

Walking out of the small courtyard, Cheng Xi soon felt a sense of familiarity—this place is only one intersection away from his previous residence.

She has walked this road many times, and she can go back with her eyes closed.

"Go back and have a look."

The two headed straight to Shen's house with a clear goal, but it was very difficult to walk at a short intersection.

Without him, the alleys now are very different from those three months ago.

Cheng Xi almost thought he had entered a refugee slum.

This was originally the area with the strongest life atmosphere in Lin'an Fucheng. Although the yards of each household are not big, the density of residents is ridiculously high. On average, there are at least seven or eight people in each yard.

The noise of children in the streets and alleys and the barking of cats and dogs came one after another.

Now not only have they all disappeared, but even the house has been smashed into a mess, and even the doors of several households were left open along the way.

"It seems that Fucheng has not been peaceful recently."

Presumably these families have already encountered accidents.

The two quickened their pace and soon arrived at the Shen family's house. It was a mess as expected, bedding, cotton clothes and other things used to keep warm were gone, not even the wooden tables and chairs were left behind.

Cheng Xi looked in the direction of the study, "Your book"

Shen Xingluo shook his head, his expression was not overly depressed, "Things outside the body should have been taken to keep warm."

When the two stepped into the study, it was really empty, not to mention the books, even the wooden bookshelves where the books were stored were removed.

It's a bit miserable.

"The rest of Lin'an Prefecture is probably not much better."

Seeing the big from the small, the busiest residential areas are now like this, and the people's lives can be guessed by thinking about it.

With heavy hearts, the two walked out of the house silently.

It is quite a distance from the residential area on the east side to the magistrate's yamen, half of the city of Lin'an Prefecture is separated. This road gave the two of them a deep understanding of the situation in the city.

Miserable, really miserable.

Worse than Shen's house.

Cheng Xi avoided the blood-stained snow on the ground, and heard bursts of suppressed cries coming from the alley.

Hearing too many similar voices along the way, both of them became numb.

The doors of some people's houses were closed tightly, and there was no light in the house, but with Cheng Xi and Shen Xingluo's current skills, they knew that there were still people working hard inside.

Cheng Xi felt worried.

"us."

"Go to Sun's house first, and then go to Hongwei Escort."

The two spoke at the same time, and Youzhi reached a consensus together.

So the original route turned a corner and went directly to the residential area closest to the station.

Standing in front of a small courtyard door, Cheng Xi stretched out his hand to knock, and the wooden door made regular knocking sounds.

Soon after, very faint footsteps sounded in the yard.

"Who?!"

"It's me, Cheng Xi."

The wooden door was quickly opened, revealing Sun Xiaorong's long and thin face, full of shock.

"Xiaoxi, why are you here?!"

The city gate is not open!
He works in the Yamen, of course he knows this.

It was because he clearly knew that the city gate was not open that he was so shocked now!

Cheng Xi said casually, "The one who climbed over the wall, where is Aunt Sun?"

"My mother is fine, but the weather is too cold, her body is not good, so she has been lying in bed."

Sun Xiaorong hurriedly greeted the two of them to enter the door, and observed the surroundings extremely carefully when closing the door.

A ray of light was quickly lit in a living room in the small courtyard, illuminating the faces of the three people, and the old man coughed faintly from the next door.

Sun Xiaorong breathed a sigh of relief after watching the two of them for a long time, "It's great to see that you are all well, knowing that you have moved to Shenjia Village, my mother has been thinking about you all day long without food."

Now it seems that this young couple that people miss day and night eats better than anyone else.

Look, not only did not lose weight, but also grew a lot taller.

In comparison, he is more like a disaster victim who has not eaten for a long time.

Cheng Xi also felt that he came here in a hurry today, and he would have brought some food over if he knew the situation in the city.
