Moreover, Li Meng is now looking around curiously. In line with his image, it is a standard countryman entering the city. Anyone who passes by Li Meng will frown and avoid it. If it weren't for his tall figure, someone would have shouted and driven away.

Li Meng spent a few cents to buy a few steamed cakes at the steaming food shop, but no matter how you look at it, this thing is similar to steamed buns. What makes people quite happy is that the steamed cake was steamed with white flour, and it looks much whiter than the pasta cakes yesterday, which really increased appetite.

It was as expected by Li Meng. Jiaozhou City was not too big, and it was probably about 2,000 households. If it were left to this day, it was not as big as a town in a developed area. Li Meng even doubted whether the statement that Jiaozhou was a big city mentioned by those companions of the Xue Family was exaggerated. But Li Meng also smiled bitterly and found that he also felt that the city was indeed not small. Perhaps it was because he was getting used to this era and gradually integrating.

The center of Jiaozhou is the prefectural yamen, which looks very grand. However, because of the tradition of officials who have not repaired the yamen in the past dynasties, it looks extremely dilapidated. Relatively speaking, the surrounding houses and courtyards seem much more grand, with blue bricks and black tiles, and many people have rare decorations on the walls and doors. This should be the wealthy area of ​​Jiaozhou City.

Two streets away from the magistrate's yamen, there is a fruit shop that sells pastries and dried fruits. It is the business of these wealthy families in the city. The doors and the counters are relatively dressed in a relatively particular way.

While the guy at the door was looking around, he saw a tall man in ragged clothes and bearded walking towards the door. He quickly shouted:

"Where you go, our store is not something that you are a poor man..."

Before he finished speaking, he swallowed it. The poor man walked over with big strides. His tall figure had a very oppressive aura. When he was nervous, the poor man smiled and asked:

"This guy, I have a relative who works at inspector Mou's house. Let me ask you where the inspector Mou's house is."

The guy at the Fruit Shop said the address with an impatient look and quickly sent the poor man away, otherwise standing at the door of the store would really affect the business.

After it got dark, Jiaozhou City was just a noisy hour more than the Xue family. It soon fell into darkness and silence. In the city, it was just a few barking sounds of dogs, except for the night patrol and night patrol.

After Li Meng wandered around Jiaozhou City, he arrived in front of inspector Mou's house after dark. The salt inspection was indeed fat and oily. The rich mansion around the magistrate's yamen was the most grand. Although the servant at the Fruit Shop said it was unclear, it was really easy to find.

There is a path between inspector Mou and his neighbor's house, which is very narrow and dead end. Neither the night patrol or anyone else will come here.

Li Meng was curled up in the darkness of the path, and even if someone passed by, he could not find it. The noise in the house where inspector Mou was shouting, obviously he was having a banquet and having fun.

The aroma of wine and meat drifted into the alley. Li Meng swallowed, but what he thought of was the day when he was walking on the road and was fighting to the death. After returning to the Xue Family Qianhu House, the scene was full of wretchedness, and the elderly were crying there. The wine and meat were actually the flesh and blood of the poor people!

As the night gradually deepened, the entire Jiaozhou City fell into silence. The sea breeze was blown by the night. Li Meng, wearing a single shirt, felt a little cold, but he was still there motionless.

Around the third day of the morning, the night patrolman walked past the alley while knocking on the clapper. He also walked quickly, not turning his head to see what was going on in the dead end.

Listening to the sound of the bangzi gradually faded away, Li Meng straightened up, moved his hands and feet, reached out to take out the things stuffed between his back and waist, removed the cloth wrapped outside, revealing a broken knife about one foot. It was the waist knife he had packed after fighting with the salt diners. It turned out to be about three feet. In order to facilitate portability, Li Meng broke the waist knife, leaving only about one foot of blade.

Bite the knife in his mouth, Li Meng climbed up the walls on both sides. Fortunately, there were no glass fragments on the walls of this era, so Li Meng easily climbed over the wall and landed in the yard.

After landing, he rolled around and some noise came out. Li Meng hurriedly hid aside, but he didn't disturb him. To put it bluntly, this is just a patrol mansion. Although the inspection of the Salt Administration is a fat mansion, his official position is only a ninth rank, and he is a small official who will enter the market.

His house is large and there is no stern warning. Li Meng thought too much, but after entering the yard, Li Meng felt a little wrong, because he didn't know where the inspector lived, and how many places the house could enter and exit, and who knew where the king of Yan lived.

No matter in past and present life, Li Meng didn’t know what the layout of this ancient house was. He had no contact with him in modern times, and had never seen the country people on this market in the Ming Dynasty.

The place he jumped down should be the location of the woodshed. After walking a few steps inside, he found that the dark ones really couldn't find the place. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious. He thought that he wouldn't be able to find it. If he walked around, he would be shocked by others, and he would be alone. If he went out and came back the next day, there would be a lot of dreams and he would be afraid of something else.

At this moment, the door of the room opened, and a man walked out yawning. When he arrived at the wall, he seemed to be about to be relieved. When the man was yawning for the second time, he suddenly felt a little cold on the side of his neck. He was shocked and suddenly woke up. There was a blade on his neck. His mouth was firmly held by the person behind him and could not make a sound. Li Meng whispered in his ear:

"Don't shout, be careful of the knife."

A smell of smell came, and the man was untied in his pants. At this time, who could care about this? He just nodded carefully and signaled to know. Li Meng said again:

"Take me to inspector Mou's bedroom."

It turns out that it is so easy. Speaking of which, what other strict guards can a prefecture and county inspector? After all, he is just a ninth-rank local king. The man put his hands behind his back, tied up by Li Meng with a cloth strip, stuffed a cloth ball in his mouth, and was pressed against his neck by Li Meng's knife, and walked forward carefully.

The people are afraid of officials as if they are afraid of tigers. Inspection inspector Mou may not have thought that someone would enter the city and enter his own house to be unfavorable to him, and there was no precaution at all.

When you arrive at the door of a room, you can see a faint candlelight flashing in the window.
