After the Fairy Disappeared Chapter 56

  Chapter 56 Where does Zhong Shengguang live?

   Damn, what is he thinking? He Lingchuan rubbed his face.

   Perhaps drawn by fear, a flash of inspiration suddenly appeared in his mind.

  Perhaps, we have to go back to the question that Nian and Sun struggled with at the beginning: Where is Zhong Zhai?

  Why is this period of history the hallucination where the Dafang pot is hidden? Panlong City obviously has countless glorious fragments.

  The only clue they can follow up, or the only clue that the Baling Expedition Team can follow up, is Zhong Shengguang.

  The bones of the Baling people were abandoned in the cellar of the Chenzhai, indicating that the original intention of the expedition team was the same as our own, and they also wanted to find clues in Zhongzhai.

   But nothing there...really?

   That is to say, as long as Zhong Zhai is found, the remaining members of the Baling expedition team can be found.

  He Lingchuan tried hard to recall every legend, storytelling, and allusion of Panlong City, Dafeng Army, and Zhong's that he had heard.

  Almost every piece of history is related to Zhong Shengguang. What clues will be hidden here?

  In Panlong City, that beautiful gray brick mansion still belongs to Chen Zhai, not Zhong Shengguang. Assuming that Zhong Shengguang bought the mansion from the Chen family later, where would he live during this period of time?

   At this time, he was still the deputy commander, and he came to Panlong City from the middle of Xiluo Kingdom to take up his post at the king's order.

  As a foreign visitor, he has no place to live in Panlong City, so he has to find a place to live.

   Will you be at the station?

  He Lingchuan shook his head, denying himself.

  Only bachelors live in posthouses. He had read in several playbooks that Deputy Commander Zhong was newlywed Yan Er, who took office the next month.

  The surname Zhong spent the rest of his life here, and later had sons and daughters, and he alone could not give birth.

  So, he came with his family, and it is impossible for him to live in the inn.

  The place was dirty, noisy and smelly, and the wallboards were as thin as paper. The couple clapped casually at night, and the guests next door could hear them clearly.

  Where will Zhong Shengguang arrange his family?

  He Lingchuan jumped off the roof: "Master, did we go through the government office just now?"

   "Yes, what's the matter?" Sun Fuping said, "I checked the government offices before you entered the city." But there were no useful clues there.

   "Chen's house, I mean the later Zhong's house, is some distance away from the government office. But at that time, Zhong Shengguang had to go in and out of the government office every day, and he might settle nearby. He has a family."

  Sun Fuping is also a shrewd person, and he said it right: "You are right! I only searched the government office, but didn't look closely at the surrounding area!"

  Then the two of them turned their directions and ran back and forth.

   Regardless of the city's official offices, they will firmly occupy the geomantic treasures, and Panlong City is no exception.

   Not long after, the two saw a gray and unsophisticated building by the river. In terms of style and appearance, it was far inferior to the restaurant thirty feet away.

"right here."

  Officials don't repair the yamen, only to find someone to repair it when it is broken. Therefore, the official offices are generally not resplendent and resplendent, but neat and solemn at best.

   But its location is really nice.

  He Lingchuan climbed up to the tallest restaurant nearby and looked around.

  Sun Fuping heard him shouting from above: "The north is a wetland, which cannot be lived in."

   "There are shops in the market on the west side." The shops are usually in the backyard of the front shop, with people doing business in the front and living in the back. Small businessmen are not very particular, "I don't think Zhong Shengguang lives there either."

  The environment in West Market is not good. After all, Zhong Shengguang is newly married, and he is an official, so he will probably find a better place for his wife.

  He looked further south and found that there were several rows of houses across the water from the government office. Each set was of the same size, and most of them were small courtyards with one or two entrances. They should have been built uniformly. Although it is not a wealthy family, but living by the water, it should be quiet and comfortable.

   "South!" He pointed to the south, "That's the official building!"

  Official houses are the residences of officials, which are usually connected with the government offices and form a harmonious whole. When He Lingchuan first saw the official building in Heishui City, he knew it. Isn't this the government compound or collective dormitory?

  But the location of Panlong City is special, the front and back of the official office are surrounded by water, the place is too small, so the official building is built on the opposite bank.

  If you are an official in a different place, you will need accommodation. Relevant regulations vary from country to country.

  Like the Great Yuan Kingdom, officials in other places must live in the official residence, and they are not allowed to buy houses without permission. However, Qiansong County is really remote, and at this time, Yuan Kingdom is in internal and external troubles, so there is no time to follow the laws and regulations. There are actually countless officials like He Chunhua who have purchased beautiful houses in fertile fields.

   As for Zhong Shengguang, let alone. After Panlong Wasteland became an enclave, he was the highest authority here. Xiluo Kingdom didn't even know that the Panlong Wasteland was still its own land, and no one dared to ask what Zhong Shengguang did here.

   But during the peaceful and peaceful days in the Panlong Wasteland, he is not yet a high-ranking commander, he should live in the official house!

  Sun Fuping also figured this out, his eyes lit up: "Let's go!"

  There are more than 40 sets of official buildings, but the two have targeted, and it is not troublesome to find them.

   Soon, Sun Fuping released a command arrow in the second-to-last row of the official building, calling others to come quickly!

   After everyone arrived, they found that Sun Fuping and He Lingchuan were standing in the small courtyard of an official residence.

   There is also a tomb in the courtyard, and a wooden board is erected on the top of the tomb as a monument.

   Even Nian Songyu couldn't understand the above text.

  Sun Fuping read to everyone: "The tomb of the loyal friend Yu Qingyuan, this is the Baling script."

  Mao Tao was overjoyed: "We found it, we found it! Uh, we found it...another Baling man?"

   "But it wasn't the Baling man who died last, otherwise, who would bury him?" He Lingchuan picked up the soil, "What's so special about this person that he deserves to be buried in peace?"

   This expedition team was so cruel that they even ate their own people. The other members who were eaten were just dumped in the cellar. Why did this deceased deserve to be buried?

   You must know that this is an illusion, and everything is not real. So is the courtyard, so is the soil.

  The Baling Expedition Team had to eat people to survive in the end, and they must have exhausted their energy. Why would they spend their energy digging earth and building graves to do something so vain?

  Nian Songyu was observing the tombstone, even wiped it with his hand, and took it under his nose to sniff it.

   "This ink is mixed with blood, and they have no water." Without water, the ink cannot be melted, and only blood can be used.

   "Dig it out!" Must find out.

  When Sun Fuping moved his mouth, He Lingchuan and Mao Tao had to dig graves. Fortunately, there were some farm tools in the yard, and I don't know if they were used by the Baling team.

  The two of them were working hard here, Nian Songyu supervised the work, but Sun Fuping looked up at the sky, in a daze for some reason.

   Soon, the owner of the tomb will be seen again.

   Mao Tao wiped off the mud spots on his face: "I dug it up, huh, it's still bones."

   "It's been buried for decades, it's strange if it doesn't turn into bones." He Lingchuan dug up the soil with a shovel, revealing most of the bones.
