The town was not big, but it was particularly lively because of the winter sacrifice.
Perhaps it was because the place was remote, but the few of them who were outsiders seemed to be out of place on the streets.
Qinghu had already found an inn to stay in, so they did not stay there for long. Soon, they found the inn they had booked.
Lin Mengya got out of the carriage and looked around.
No matter how she looked at it, this town was an ordinary place.
Nothing unusual could be seen from the outside.
Fortunately, she was not an impatient person. Before tonight, the person who had been hiding behind Madam Huang and urging her to do such an evil thing would come to the surface.
"Lass, it's just as you expected. That Madam Huang didn't even return home after leaving our place. Instead, she went to a family in town to make a fuss. That person's surname was Wang, and she was a famous witch here. Madam Huang was also tough. She made a mess in Witch Wang's family. "
Witch Wang? Lin Mengya raised her eyebrows slightly.
But it was not unreasonable. This kind of thing was indeed the most suitable for a witch to do.
She wanted to meet this Witch Wang and see what she was capable of!
"Let's go to Witch Wang's house tonight. Since she could do such a thing, she must not be a good person."
Lin Mengya would go in person, which meant that she would definitely get to the bottom of this matter.
As night fell, Lin Mengya and Qinghu walked to Witch Wang's house with some gifts that were not expensive.
According to the people who came back, Witch Wang was also a powerful person.
Although Madam Huang had made a big fuss, she said something to Madam Huang at the last moment, which made Madam Huang walk out of Witch Wang's house with a pale face.
Moreover, Witch Wang was quite miraculous.
She was especially famous for praying for children and getting married.
To put it bluntly, she was a Mongolian doctor and a good matchmaker.
But in the eyes of the locals, she was a great and capable person.
Whenever there was something big or small in their family, they liked to go to Witch Wang's house and ask her to make a decision.
Divine Granny Wang was also the most well-informed person in this town. Because of this, many of the things that Witch Wang said sounded more believable.
It was just that this guy was obsessed with money and had no professional ethics at all.
If some dissolute young master took a fancy to some family's young lady or daughter-in-law, Witch Wang would also engage in some seductive business from time to time.
Therefore, in the town, all the decent people kept a respectful distance from this great immortal.
On the other hand, those people who had nothing to do and acted like chickens and dogs were close to her.
When she learned that the expert behind the Huang Clan was this Divine Witch Wang, she was not surprised at all.
"Her house is just around the corner. Our men are already hidden in the dark."
Qinghu said in a low voice. In his opinion, he would be the one to settle these trivial matters.
He didn't know what kind of nerve this lass had triggered that she had to do it herself.
He could only shake his head and let the maidservant handle it.
The two of them arrived at Witch Wang's house. Before Qinghu could knock on the door, they saw the door of Witch Wang's house suddenly crack open from inside.
At this time, it was dusk.
The door that he had opened was quiet inside, not even the slightest sound could be heard.
The two of them felt strange. Qinghu narrowed his eyes and felt that something was wrong.
"Let me go and have a look."
After whispering to Lin Mengya, he slipped out of the door like a nimble fox.
After a while, he came back like a ghost with a serious look on his face.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Mengya knew that something must have happened inside, otherwise Qinghu wouldn't look so pale.
However, when he was about to say something, he heard something.
With a wave of his hand, he carried Lin Mengya and flew over the eaves and walls, disappearing at the door of Witch Wang's house as soon as possible.
The men who had been following them also had a tacit understanding to hide Lin Mengya's wheelchair and remove all traces of them.
In this way, even if someone arrived, they wouldn't know that they had been here just now.
"What's wrong? Look at how flustered you are. What happened? "
Qinghu ran all the way with Lin Mengya in his arms and didn't put her down until they returned to the room in the inn.
"The people inside are all dead. Even the people I arranged to keep watch over there are nowhere to be found. And just now, I seemed to hear a lot of footsteps going in the direction of Witch Wang's house. The footsteps were steady and powerful. I think they must not be ordinary people. "
Hearing Qinghu's words, Lin Mengya felt a little serious.
Speaking of which, just before they set off, the men who were keeping watch outside Witch Wang's house had come to report to them.
Why did they disappear in such a short time?
Although she didn't see Witch Wang's family, she thought that since Qinghu said they were all dead, there must be no survivors in the Wang family.
"They are all dead? Is Witch Wang among them? What's the cause of death? Did our men also meet with an accident? "
This series of questions put Qinghu in a difficult position.
In fact, he only saw a few people lying in disorder in the courtyard of the Wang family's house.
Moreover, they only had a big hole in their chests. They were already dead.
As for what caused it and whether Witch Wang was among them, Qinghu didn't have time to see clearly.
"The two of them are old people. Even if something happened, they would leave us a secret signal. Maybe they saw the appearance of the murderer, so they went to track him. But to be able to kill under their noses, I'm afraid the murderer who killed Priestess Wang's family is also a ruthless character. "
Qinghu knew his men very well. As spies, their martial arts skills were not high. But they were good at hiding and hiding.
As long as they didn't take the initiative to jump out, there were not many people in this world who could see through their disguise.
Lin Mengya nodded. She didn't expect that the clue she had just found would be broken.
Why did this matter become confusing again?
She had a light night's sleep. The next day, Lin Mengya had thought that the massacre of the Wang family would definitely cause a great disturbance in this small town.
However, when they were eating on the first floor of the inn, they didn't hear any discussion.
Could it be that the government blocked the news?
Just when Lin Mengya was thinking about this, an old man, who looked to be in his sixties or seventies, sat at a square table not far away. He was talking to his deskmate in a low voice.
"Sigh, do you know that Witch Wang's family died last night?"
The listener was also a local, so he naturally knew about this news.
But the listener was not in a good mood. He wanted to change the topic as soon as the old man started talking.
But the old man was very stubborn. He sighed and then said, "I don't know what justice has been violated.
"I don't know what kind of justice it is, but last night, Master Huang's concubine suddenly fell ill and died. I'm afraid our town will never have a peaceful day. "
Master Huang's concubine? Lin Mengya immediately thought of Miss Huang, who made a scene in Witch Wang's family.
She inadvertently looked at the old man, who happened to be her deskmate. Maybe he felt that this matter was unlucky.
After saying goodbye, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Lin Mengya immediately exchanged a look with Qinghu. Qinghu nodded and brought a plate of untouched meat with soy sauce to the old man's table.
"Uncle, may I know who the concubine of Master Huang that you mentioned just now is?"
The old man raised his head because of the unfamiliar words.
However, when he saw that the other party was a handsome man and the plate of fresh meat with soy sauce in his hands, he automatically regarded him as a busybody who liked to gossip.
Seeing that the old man didn't blame him for eavesdropping, Qinghu naturally understood that he had something to say.
At that moment, Qinghu didn't regard himself as an outsider and sat down. He even called the waiter to add a few more dishes and meat buns.
"Sigh, I'm old and talkative. It's rare for you to do me the honor of talking to an old man like me. Speaking of which, the concubine of Master Huang's family was brought into the family by Master Huang three years ago. It was said that she was a womanizer. Although she was beautiful, she wasn't very honest. It was said that their eldest grandmother had once aborted the concubine's baby in a fit of anger. Now she died of an emergency. I don't know what evil spirit she had committed. "
Hearing the old man's words, Qinghu understood that this woman was probably Granny Tian's daughter, Miss Huang.
However, he could tell that the old man seemed to be implying something.
He couldn't help but put on a curious look and asked politely.
"Evil spirit? It's normal for her to die of an emergency. Could it be that you know something else? "
Their voices were very low. If Lin Mengya hadn't been the closest to them, she might not have heard them at all.
The old man didn't say it directly. Instead, he looked around and said.
