Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 349 Touched the tail

The little boy that Yang Qian found by chance had a surname of Wang and a single character in his given name, Tie.

Wang Tie. The family probably gave this name because they hoped that the child would be strong and easy to raise.

This child fits Yang Qian's impression of children from ordinary families in this world.

The poorer the family, the more independent and sensible the children are, and they understand what they should do and how to do it.

For example, after receiving six taels of silver, Wang Tie immediately called a doctor to see his mother.

In fact, it is just a simple cold and gastrointestinal discomfort. But if it is delayed for a long time, it can still be fatal.

The doctor did not fool Wang Tie and his medical skills were quite good. After three doses of medicine, Wang Tie's mother was able to get out of bed. The bruises on her face also mostly disappeared. Although she was still weak and had a low fever from time to time, she was no longer in danger.

Seeing that his mother's illness had recovered, Wang Tie was ecstatic and also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If his mother died, Wang Tie, who would become an orphan, would be sent away to an unknown city in Shuangqing Prefecture. It was said that evil spirits were rampant in other cities, and he would be eaten by them sooner or later. This was what the young Wang Tie feared the most.

Now that his mother’s health has improved, Wang Tie will not be sent away.

But Wang Tie, who was tired of being poor, didn't have time to be happy for two more days. After buying some brown rice, he left the money at home and started to work in Dajing Lane.

"Iron Skewer, why are you asking this? It happened more than two months ago, how can I remember it?

"Hey! Are you annoying, little boy? If you don't leave, you'll get beaten!"

"I don't know! I don't know! Wang Tie, if you dare to bother me again, I will spank you!"

The adults in Dajing Lane were all very busy. Even if Wang Tie was smart, the questions he asked were so mysterious and it had been so long, who would remember them? Asking too many times would naturally make people annoyed.

But Wang Tie was still thinking about the money, and he was unwilling to give up. He was not stupid. Just by watching Yang Qian perform the lighting technique, he knew that he had met an immortal cultivator, who was the most generous person. As long as he could find information that satisfied the other party, he would definitely get a big reward!
Just as Wang Tie was squatting in the alley trying to think of a solution unwillingly, a few kids who were a few years older than him came over.

"Iron Skewer, I heard that you were almost beaten by Uncle Zhang and Aunt Liu?"

Wang Tie didn't want to bother with these familiar playmates. He didn't have time to play with them right now and he had to find a way to do his work.

But Wang Tie suddenly had an idea and waved to the kids. After they came closer out of curiosity, he said, "Do you know where the rotten house is?"

"I know, what's wrong?"

"Do you remember if there was anyone, a stranger, who went there two months ago? If you know, I'll treat you to pancakes!"

pancake?

Although Linshui City produces grain, most of it needs to be transported away, and not much remains in the city. Especially for the city residents who do not farm, grain is not cheap. In addition, there is nothing else to do, so the half-grown children are often idle and can eat, so they rarely have a full stomach. When they heard about the pancakes, their eyes naturally lit up.

"You're not lying, are you?"

Wang Tie said affirmatively: "If I lie to you, I am a bastard! But you can't lie to me either. Anyone who lies is a son of a bitch!"

These words were quite poisonous. For a moment, everyone was curious about why Wang Tie was so generous. At the same time, they began to rack their brains to recall what happened two months ago.

But this is obviously not an easy task.

This went on for a few days. On the fourth day, the two little kids quietly found Wang Tie.

"Wang Tie, does what you said about the pancake still count?"

"Of course it counts!" "We remembered it, but you have to take out the cake first, then we'll tell you."

Wang Tie did not hesitate, he asked his mother for some copper coins and went outside to buy two cakes. He held them in his hand but did not give them out, he raised his chin, indicating that the two boys should speak first, and he would give the cakes after they finished speaking.

"Mao'er and I remember that two months ago, we were catching gophers in the rotten house, and we saw three people in black robes wandering around in the rotten house from a distance. They wandered around for a long time, and only after we caught three gophers did they come out and walk away."

"Appearance? Where are you going? You want to exchange these two sentences for a piece of cake? What are you thinking?" Wang Tie was not vague. He took the cake and put it in his arms, not wanting to pay any attention to the two kids at all.

"Ah, ah, ah, Wang Tie, why are you in such a hurry? These two pieces of cake are not enough for you."

"Why?"

"We know what those three people look like and where they are. What do you think? It's not too much to ask you to give each of us two pieces of cake for this information, right?"

"really?"

"Of course it's true! If you lied to me, both the cat and I are sons of bitches!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Tie suppressed his excitement, turned around and bought two more pancakes, then gave one to each of them, and kept the two pancakes in his arms to give to the people he met later.

"Let's go! I'll take you there!" The two kids each took a big bite, then reluctantly put it back into their arms.

The next morning, Wang Tie woke up from his sleep, washed up, and heated up some food for his mother who had recovered. Then he went out, and saw Yang Qian rushing over at the door.

Yang Qian never left Linshui City. He kept searching for clues inside and outside the city. Unexpectedly, when he hadn't found anything yet, he received the message from Wang Tie's talisman.

"Master Yang, are you here?"

"Let's go find a place to eat something and talk while we eat."

After leaving Dajing Lane, Yang Qian found a small noodle shop and treated Wang Tie to a bowl of臊子面. The kid even licked the bowl clean.

"Master Yang, Mao'er and Niu Ben found the people. There were three of them in total, all hiding in the rice pounding workshop."

"How did you find it?"

"Mao'er's father was the bag carrier at the rice pounding mill. They watched the three men from afar in the rotten hall, and later Mao'er saw them coming in and out of the rice pounding mill. When I found them, they had almost forgotten about them, and it took them a lot of effort to remember them."

"Come on, take me to that rice pounding shop."

So the two of them went to the rice pounding mill on the west side of the city, a large workshop built on the bank of Sancha River, which used a water hammer to pound rice.

Yang Qian waited outside for a while and saw three men in coarse cloth shorts coming out of the workshop.

"Master Yang, these are the three people! They have to go out of the city every morning."

Two of the three people had no magical fluctuations and were not cultivators. The leader had a faint camouflaged aura that was covered with a Qi-suppressing talisman.

Yang Qian nodded, took out a handful of silver coins, estimated that there were 20 taels, and two gold pieces, and stuffed them into Wang Tie's hand.

"You have done a good job. These are your rewards. If you are interested, you can let your mother open a small shop in the city with a good location. Linshui City will become better and better in the future." Yang Qian patted Wang Tie's shoulder, then his figure flashed and disappeared.

Wang Tie was left alone looking at the silver coins and gold pieces in his hand, stunned for a moment.
