Destiny Koi, I'm cheating after rebirth

Chapter 177 The Evil Spirit Arrives

"These people are all following Du San."

After hearing this, the little beggars nodded, indicating that they knew where those people were.

Gu Yan promised: "If you can take me to find them, I will buy each of you a big meat bun later."

The oldest beggar among them asked doubtfully, "Will they really give us big meat buns?"

Gu Yan nodded gently, "I will definitely do what I say!"

The little beggars looked at each other, exchanged glances, and said in unison: "Big brother, we are willing to take you there!"

The little beggars discussed it and decided to take Gu Yan to find the people drawn on the paper in order.

The person closest to here was the one who was beaten the worst, named Zhang Wu.

Gu Yan asked the little beggars to wait outside and walked into the house alone.

Zhang Wu lay alone on the bed in the room, daring not to move because every movement would bring excruciating pain.

It was better yesterday, but today he even had difficulty getting up.

The strange thing is that there were no obvious scars on his body, which was really unbelievable.

Just then, he saw Gu Yan walking in alone, and couldn't help but curse in a low voice: "Damn it! It's really a ghost, I actually saw this evil star here!"

Gu Yan looked at Zhang Wu leisurely, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

Zhang Wu stuttered, "You...you...are you a human or a ghost?"

Gu Yan replied calmly: "What do you think?"

As he spoke, he clearly saw Zhang Wu's pupils shrink suddenly and his body involuntarily leaned inward, obviously very scared.

Although he didn't understand where the other party's fear came from, Gu Yan was best at "hitting the snake while it's still under attack". How could he not make good use of such a good advantage?

"Yesterday you..."

But as soon as he opened his mouth to ask, Zhang Wu shouted in fear: "What happened yesterday has nothing to do with us! It was our third brother who ordered us to do it!"

"Oh? Why should I let you go?" Gu Yan spoke slowly, his elegant voice carrying a hint of persuasion.

At this moment, Zhang Wu was already frightened out of his wits, fearing that the evil spirit would rush up again and beat him up without any care. By then, he was afraid that he would lose his life.

Naturally, he answered whatever Gu Yan asked. Even after Gu Yan asked a question, he spilled everything he knew like pouring beans.

As for why the third brother sent them there, Zhang Wu said he didn't know. The third brother just told them to take people to beat up two people and didn't say much.

For Zhang Wu and others, such things as beating and intimidation are commonplace.

I originally thought that this time I was just dealing with two half-grown kids, who were easy to bully, but I never expected that I would hit a wall yesterday.

The seemingly frail young man in front of him was beaten so hard by just a few punches that his whole body was in pain and he couldn't even get out of bed today.

It’s true that people can’t be judged by their appearance!

Gu Yan questioned him carefully a few more times, but the other party just kept repeating the same few sentences over and over again and was unable to provide any more useful information.

Although he still had some doubts in his heart, Gu Yan chose to put the matter aside for the time being. After leaving Zhang Wu's house, he let the little beggars lead him to the next house.

Zhang Wu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Gu Yan finally leave, but who would have thought that just this sigh of relief would make him feel pain all over his body.

His forehead was covered with sweat, and he thought that if he met this evil spirit again, he would probably have to take a detour.

In less than an hour, Gu Yan had met and questioned all the people who had blocked his way yesterday, and the statements he got were basically the same.

Only one person mentioned that Du San seemed to have met someone before taking them to rob people.

Afterwards, they were temporarily called to guard the grove outside the city.

The target was two half-grown children, a boy and a girl.

The information was so specific that it seemed the information had been thoroughly investigated.

Obviously, this was directed at them.

Gu Yan already had an idea in mind.

It’s a pity, somewhat regrettable, that the only person who knew the inside story has already run away.

Gu Yan has always been a man of his words.

As agreed, he brought a few little beggars to the century-old bun shop.

He bought a big meat bun and a steamed bun for each little beggar to thank them for leading the way.

In addition, he gave some copper coins to a few little beggars and asked them to pay attention to the news of Du San.

In a few days, he will come to them again to inquire about the situation.

Although the matter has not yet reached a final conclusion and the mastermind behind the scenes has not been found, Gu Yan has already roughly guessed the reason.

It is probably because their business of selling mountain products was leaked out, which aroused the covetousness of certain people, so they were threatened like this.

As for Du San, he must have been scared after being beaten by him yesterday, so he chose to go out and hide.

However, Gu Yan was not worried. As the saying goes, "The monk can run away, but the temple cannot."

Since the other party intends to target them, there will always be clues left.

As long as we investigate patiently, I believe the truth will soon come to light.

Moreover, he didn't believe that Du San would never come back!

The little beggars not only received the reward promised by Gu Yan, but also unexpectedly got a steamed bun. They were so happy that they were going crazy. They promised one after another, "Don't worry, big brother! We will definitely keep a close eye on them!" Gu Yan curled his lips and said, "Well, you can go back and pay attention to your own safety."

The little beggars went away cheering.

Gu Yan bought some big meat buns that Gu Qingzhi liked at the bun shop, and then rode his donkey to the blacksmith shop.

The set of medicine pounding tools that Qingqing customized should be almost finished. I'll stop by and ask how it's going.

Ever since Zhang Chang sent someone to find Du San, he has been feeling uneasy.

All he found out from Ma Gui that day was that the deliverymen were two half-grown children, a boy and a girl.

Suddenly, I had evil thoughts and thought of finding someone to beat them up. I'm sure the adults in their families would not dare to take on this delivery business anymore.

After asking around, his eyes fell on the street urchin Du San.

This man was very arrogant because he had relatives in the government. He often collected protection fees and molested decent women in the market.

Through the help of someone, he found Du San and asked him to do the job. He gave the other party 500 coins and promised to give him another string of silver as a reward after the task was completed.

How could Du San not do such a good thing? And it was just beating up two kids, which was nothing to him...
