Chapter 961 Pollution is coming!(2/3)
The maid occasionally called someone.
No one responded, but the door opened with a rusty creak on the door shaft.
Directly opposite is a screen wall.
On the screen wall is a Chinese painting, including common people, government officials, police officers, and rogues...
They are actually moving, as if the "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" came to life on this screen wall.
The maid accidentally raised her foot and stepped across the threshold. Then the moment her right foot landed, her whole body turned into a line of blue smoke and disappeared.
"ah?"
Hua Yueyu was startled.
"Are we still going in?"
Jin Yingzhen turned back and glanced at the corridor.
"Of course!"
Xia Hongyao rolled up her sleeves: "I go first!"
Raising his high ponytail, Lin Baici grabbed him.
"Why are you so anxious?"
Lin Baici looked at the screen wall: "Take a look at this thing first. Maybe the key to purifying this rule pollution lies on it!"
What appears on the screen wall is the daily life of those ancient people.
Lin Bai said to the others, it was like watching a costume movie, a silent movie without sound.
Suddenly, the crowd on the street became panicked. A group of policemen in soap clothes rushed across the street and posted some papers on the wall.
After the arrests dispersed, people gathered around him.
"What's written on it?"
Hua Yueyu rubbed his eyes.
"Can't see clearly!"
Xia Hongyao's eyes widened.
[It’s time to go in, if you don’t go in, a new case will appear!]
The god spoke.
When Lin Baici heard this, he stopped looking at the screen wall: "Xiaoyu, Yingzhen, grab my clothes!"
"Let's go!"
Lin Baici waited for the two girls to grab his sleeves, then raised his feet to cross the threshold, and then his whole body turned into a line of blue smoke.
Jin Yingzhen and Hua Yueyu let go.
"noob!"
Hua Yueyu was nervous.
"Hurry up and follow!"
Xia Hongyao urged, pushing the two of them into the door.
…
Lin Baici's eyes suddenly went dark. When his vision returned, he saw himself appearing on a long street.
The ground is made of compacted earth and is very dirty. There is excrement from mules and horses, and the smell is carried by the breeze. There are some low houses on both sides of the street.
Pedestrians on the street are all wearing shabby clothes, and the whole world is gray.
"Where did this come from?"
Lin Baici knew that this was a small city in ancient times, but he couldn't tell which dynasty it belonged to: Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming!
"Red medicine! Little fish!"
Lin Baici knew that it was dangerous to shout like this, but he wanted to find them as soon as possible.
No one responded.
Lin Baici frowned.
Most of the pedestrians on the street were walking in a hurry, but there were also a few who were staring at Lin Baici.
Lin Baici looked around and immediately ran towards an alley.
When you come to a strange place, the first thing you should do is try your best to blend in and avoid being treated as an alien, so after Lin Baici entered the alley, he jumped on a wall.
He lowered his body and after observing carefully for a few minutes, he identified an unoccupied house and jumped in.
When Lin Baici came out again, he had already changed into civilian clothes.
But Lin Baici was too tall and his clothes didn't fit, and he was too fair and healthy. There was nothing he could do, so Lin Baici found a bamboo hat from a farmyard and covered his head.
Lin Baici came to the street again and listened to the natives talking.
Fortunately, although I don’t know where the local accent is, I can still hear a few things.
Lin Baici walked a little further and saw a group of people surrounding a high wall, talking among themselves.
He immediately stepped forward.
There are some papers taped to the wall, but they are not about arresting gangsters, but are notices issued by Lord Fu Yin.
The Lantern Festival is coming, and the emperor wants to have fun with the people, so he wants to offer beautiful women from all over the country.
Lord Fu Yin had just collected a group of beauties and prepared to send them to the capital, but the mansion where the beauties lived suddenly caught fire.
The next day, after the fire was put out, Master Fuyin did not see the bodies, so he thought that either the show girls ran away or were kidnapped.
No matter what the possibility is, these women must be captured, hence this reward notice.
If you catch a woman, you will be rewarded with a thousand taels of silver!
This is definitely a huge sum of money, which shows how anxious the governor is.
Too!
He lost the woman who was dedicated to the emperor. If someone complained about this, I am afraid that it would be a minor matter for the governor to lose his official position and dismissal. In the worst case, he would be punished for deceiving the emperor.
"This pollution is not about finding beautiful women for the emperor, right?"
Lin Baici murmured and looked at the row of notices below.
There are twelve pictures in total, and they all have a portrait of a person drawn on them.
Not surprisingly, they are the missing show girls, but the problem is...
Is this painting too abstract?
If anyone can find a person based on these portraits, it will definitely not be a person, but a fortune teller, because they are all calculated.
etc……
Lin Baici was originally complaining, but when he thought of this, he suddenly had an idea,
Could it be that the painter is one of the suspects?
Did he paint it like this on purpose because he didn't want people to find those showgirls?
Lin Baici looked around and deliberately laughed loudly: "This is also called a beauty? All the green flowers of Lao Wang's family in my village are prettier than them!"
"Young man, from out of town, right?"
An uncle spoke.
I can't stand these foreigners looking down on me.
"The one on the far left is the young lady from Shen Caishen's family, who is known as the most beautiful woman in our Shuntian Mansion!"
The uncle ridiculed: "This portrait is a bit ugly. If you see the real person, you will definitely lose your soul!"
"What about the second one?"
Lin Baici took advantage of the situation and asked.
"This second person is a popular waiter from Xiaoxiang Tower. His flute skills are unparalleled in the world, and he can express all emotions in the world!"
The uncle shook his head, looking drunk.
"Have you heard of it?"
Lin Baici said to himself, this governor is so courageous that he even dares to offer prostitutes from a brothel to the emperor?
What does this girl look like?
"No!"
The uncle sighed: "Drinking a sip of tea and listening to a flute requires one hundred and twenty taels of silver. This old man is really short of money..."
"I invite you!"
