12. Rouge flavor
Maybe I can stay in this town for a while.
After making up his mind, You'an walked towards the center of the town.
He is ready to accept the mayor's recruitment.
Although he has money now, he doesn't have much room to spend money.
But there is no reason to not want to have income.
Besides, the mayor is indeed rewarding a lot.
When passing by the largest winery in the town, You'an subconsciously took a look.
The door is closed and business is closed.
There is a notice posted on it that the owner of the winery has to go back to his hometown to deal with it, and the business will be closed for a long time.
As we walked along the way, the same was true for other stores.
There are only not many shops with doors open, and few customers come to the door.
"It seems that many people in the town are no longer in the town. It is impossible for a thief to have such a big impact just by committing an offensive."
You An was more convinced of his original idea.
The reason for the accident in the town is either a ghost or a half demon in Su Ningxue's mouth.
At this moment, You An met a family of four, leading a carriage with luggage towards him.
I think I'm going to leave the town.
I didn't expect that there was someone You An knew among the four of the family.
It was the old man who had advised him not to have a conflict with Heihezhuang before.
The other three are middle-aged men, a woman, and a young girl.
It should be the old man's family.
After approaching, You An greeted the old man: "Old man, where are you going?"
Seeing You An and listening to his words, the old man smiled a little, but the sadness on his face still couldn't survive.
"Youngsheng, I haven't seen you for a while. Recently, the town is uneasy and is preparing to follow Xiaorou and her parents to live in the next town for a while.
You are here to buy daily necessities. Recently, many shops have closed their doors. You can see a few more stores along this road.
After buying it, go back quickly.”
You An’s deeds had already spread in the town.
After all, the town is not big, so neighbors and leaders will talk about each other for a few words.
Based on what the old man said to him, the middle-aged man also guessed You An's identity, tied the rope that was pulling the carriage and horses, and stopped there.
Feeling the kindness of the person in front of him, You An also said with a smile: "Where is the mayor's residence? Is it also walking along this road in the center of the town?"
"This..." Hearing You An's words, the old man hesitated for a moment, "Young Master, the mayor's hiring remuneration is not so easy to get. There was a family in the town before, and the family of seven disappeared overnight, and they could not see anyone but die or see the corpse.
Later, the mayor went to the county to invite a group of warriors. When the warriors who were invited arrived, they patrolled the guards every day with a fierce momentum.
Unexpectedly, there were fewer and fewer warriors patrolling the guards half a month later, and the mayor did not explain, but just hired the warriors for one plus one plus another.
Some residents in the town also saw when some warriors left, but more of them were inexplicably lost.
Those who have a way out of the town have moved out of the town.
Alas, what a good town, how come it is like this?"
When the old man sighed, the girl who had been standing behind him spoke: "The mayor's house is not in the center of the town, but on the west side of the town."
You An glanced at her and thought it was the old man's granddaughter.
"That's the case, thank you girl."
Then, You An said goodbye to the family and walked to the west side of the town.
Seeing You An go further and further away, the old man sighed again, shook his head and followed his family to continue walking outside the town.
The girl who was following her looked impatient: "Grandpa, don't sigh, I can see that the boy doesn't listen to others' words and doesn't recognize people's kindness."
The middle-aged man who was pulling a cart in front listened to his daughter's words and smiled and turned around: "Xiao Rou, don't speak so harshly. Be careful that if you can't get married in the future, your father will be overwhelmed."
"Hmph, if you can't get married, don't get married!" The girl who was replaced by Xiaorou raised her mouth and said stubbornly.
After saying that, his expression became lonely, and he turned around and looked back.
Seeing the empty street behind me and no one was seen, my expression became even more lonely.
The mother beside her saw her daughter's movements, and said nothing, and reached out to touch her head.
"well--"
The old man bowed his waist sighed heavily again.
......
On the other side, after You An asked about the road again, he finally found the residence of the mayor of Qinglin Town.
The door is open.
Behind the door frame was a man, a tall middle-aged man with a smile on his face.
He wore a black hat on his head.
It was clear that it was sunny during the day, but it was carrying a huge black umbrella with tarpaulin.
"A young warrior is here to accept the recruitment? I am the mayor of Qinglin Town, Wu Fulin."
When You An approached, the middle-aged man spoke first.
"Yes, my name is You'an."
You An looked at the umbrella held by the middle-aged man, stunned for a moment, and then responded.
"Please come in."
While speaking, Wu Fulin reached out to ask for it.
Then he turned around and walked into the yard behind the door.
You An was not afraid, and raised his heels.
"I wonder how much do you know about my situation in Qinglin Town?"
Wu Fulin asked while walking.
"I just learned something on the road." You An answered staring at Wu Fulin's back.
"Oh, a thief killed the residents of my town. After so long, he still couldn't find out. I am so heartbroken that I am the mayor."
"Master, it is said that a month has passed since the murder. Will the thief continue to stay in this town?" You An asked coldly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a breeze suddenly blew towards him.
Wu Fulin was walking in front of You An, and the wind brought the smell of the former to the tip of You An's nose.
A strong and unusual smell of rouge.
Unexpectedly, the mayor of Qinglin Town lived a very delicate life. He not only could wear parasols, but also used women's rouge.
After hearing You An's words, Wu Fulin paused for a moment, and then slowly said: "To be honest, that thief is not a simple murderer."
You An smiled at the corner of his mouth: "He is not a human?"
"My friend is really good at laughing. It's not human beings, but some ghosts and gods are not there." Wu Fulin said dryly, "It's just that person, I suspect it was the enemy I provoked in my early years.
This time, he attacked the people in my town to embarrass me.
But I can't tell people about this kind of thing to the town, otherwise I, the mayor, would not be able to do it anymore.
I can only ask the warriors outside the town to solve the problem.
However, my enemy is not only very good at martial arts, but also very good at hiding.
It’s very difficult to deal with him. If you don’t have the courage, it’s better to leave early.”
