Drunken and faintly dreaming
Chapter 15: The Cold and Silent Street Fighter
In any case, as the only "harvest" of the night, the unrecognizable floating corpse was transported back to the town's guardhouse by the government officials. After a while, the once noisy Evil Fish Pond became silent again.
Come down.
A burly middle-aged man, after seeing that all the officials had left, walked out of his hiding place and stood alone by the pool, staring at the water in trance.
Suddenly, gusts of spooky cold wind blew across the water surface of the evil fish pond one after another, and incredible wisps of black smoke were raised. This situation made the man standing by the pond couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
——Goosebumps appeared all over my body...
"Perhaps this is God's will?" The middle-aged man muttered to himself, looking up to the sky.
…
Early the next morning, when it was still dark, an old man stumbled out of the gate of the guardhouse. As he walked, he cried out inconsolably: "My husband...my husband!" The two soldiers guarding the gate stopped him with their spears held horizontally.
He looked at him, but heard a majestic voice behind him scolding: "Don't be rude, let him come in quickly!"
It turned out that the official Song who had just gotten up was standing on the steps of the gate wearing a cloak. When the old man who came in a hurry saw Song Che, he quickly knelt down and kowtowed, saying: "Master Song, I beg you.
Please redress your grievances to my husband!"
Song Che hurriedly walked down the steps, raised the old man up with both hands, and said: "Old hospital master, please get up quickly. If you have something to say, go in and say it slowly." He also recognized the old man who had rushed here early.
, that loyal old servant of Zhongji’s family.
Song Che held the hand of an old servant of the Zhong family, walked into the guardhouse, and asked softly: "May I ask, old man, what is your surname?"
"Sir, you can kill this old slave. I don't dare to bother you. My surname is Pu and my first name is Pu Gen. On weekdays, everyone calls me Lao Pu Tou."
"Oh, it turns out to be Uncle Gen."
When the old servant heard this, he was so panicked that he almost knelt down again... He trembled and said: "How can an adult treat a child so highly? I really can't bear it! You should still call me Lao Pu - Lao Pu
Head."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, it's just a title. If you're talking about your age, I should call you Uncle Laoyi - that's right, right?" As they spoke, they had already arrived at the room where the corpse was parked.
Opening up the white cloth on the floating corpse, Lao Putou couldn't help but burst into tears again and was heartbroken! Seeing this scene, Song Che, who accompanied him in, also frowned.
After Lao Putou repeatedly and carefully identified it, he finally determined that this floating corpse should be Zhongji himself! However, the details of the case related to Zhongji are still unknown for the time being...
In order to further dig into the various secrets hidden behind the collection, Song Che rewarded Lao Putou generously and asked him to rush to Mrs. Zhong's natal home immediately and invite Mrs. Zhong to assist in the investigation. The loyal Lao Putou wanted to clean up his master as soon as possible.
He was naturally very willing to work for grievances and revenge - so as soon as he received the order, he set off immediately.
…
Outside the south gate of Jiaxing City, under a simple roadside tea shed, there are several country people wearing bamboo hats sitting around a table drinking tea.
While they were talking in low voices, they glanced at the pedestrians on the road intentionally or unintentionally - they seemed to be waiting for someone.
The owner of the tea shed, Weber, who had met many people, intuitively sensed the "goodness" of these tea guests, so he looked at them carefully from time to time.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tea shed. Then, a huge man appeared in front of Weber. Weber looked up and saw that it was an old acquaintance - the big man Liu (
Liu Xingchui) is here!
At this time, Weber, who usually loves to gossip, became very interested. He quietly said to Liu Xingchui in a very low voice: "Big Liu, do you know who those people are?"
"What is it?" Liu Xingchui was accustomed to speaking loudly and loudly. He just shouted and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands.
This was the so-called "snatching the enemy", and the hat-wearing guests immediately noticed the anomaly and cast vicious glances at them.
Liu Xingchui secretly regretted that he went out in a hurry today and forgot to bring the one-legged bronze man - otherwise, he really didn't pay attention to those people. But this big Liu is not just a reckless person.
Mr. Lu, his eyes quickly turned, and he suddenly got into trouble...
Da Liu threw two copper coins to Weber and winked. At the same time, he took long steps and hurried towards the suburbs.
Those hat-wearers felt that the big man's behavior was a bit weird, and they wanted to follow him - they were worried that they would miss their "business"; but they didn't want to chase him - they felt weird and itchy!
At this time, Weber, the tea seller, began to "act" with all his might: "Oh my God, please get rid of Liu, the one who killed you! Are you still keeping him and continuing to cause harm to the people?"
While the old man was crying and fussing, he kept moving his body, getting closer and closer to the hat-wearing guests...
Seeing a bad old man crying with runny nose and tears, as if he was begging the four of them for help, the haters were a little confused for a while. And at that moment they were slightly distracted.
Suddenly, a lean figure flashed past in a flash, and in the blink of an eye, he had slipped into the doorway of the South City Gate without anyone noticing...
The play sung by Old Man Wei not only used his body to help block the sight of the hat-wearing guests, but also took the opportunity to get close to those people, intentionally or unintentionally touching some hidden things in them! The old man himself knew it well.
After that, he gradually stopped crying and returned to the tea stove cursing.
…
When night was about to fall, Weber, who was closing the stall, suddenly heard a few calls of cuckoos! He immediately looked up and found Liu Xingchui squatting in the grass opposite - looking straight at him.
Weber squinted and saw that those people were not looking this way, so he immediately made a particularly exaggerated grimace at Liu Xingchui. Liu Xingchui understood immediately, and with the information he got, he quickly disappeared into the darkness in the distance in the blink of an eye...
Seeing that there were very few people passing by, the guests in bamboo hats paid for their tea and got up to leave. They rushed to the south gate at a rapid pace and entered the city just as the gate was about to close.
At this time, the deserted streets in the city began to light up with dots of lights - night had quietly fallen. As they walked, the guests in bamboo hats asked passers-by: How to get out of the Ni family, which was recently wiped out?
Several passers-by who were questioned in a row had the same reaction: first panic, and then seeming surprised. There was a middle-aged woman with a rough appearance who stared at them with disdain and vomited at the same time.
A word of "psycho!"
The cloaked guests in front were only asking for directions, but they didn't notice that there was always a person following them several feet away behind them. The person was wearing a large black cloak.
, if someone sees her at this moment, almost all that will be left is a pair of bright eyes as bright as stars!
At this moment, the night on the streets in the south of Jiaxing City is indeed a bit lonely...
