To Hold One’s Joy

  Chapter 349 Forgotten

  Yundong hid next to a grocery store some distance from the meat bun stall, and didn't dare to get too close.

  Although he made some cover-ups, just as he was familiar with Pingli, Pingli was also familiar with him.

  When the turmoil came, Yundong immediately chased the person who stalked Pingli with the same goal as the subordinates guarding the tea stall.

  The chaotic crowd hindered the speed slightly.

  Yun Dong pushed the person in front of him aside, and suddenly put a hand on his shoulder.

  He immediately pressed the man's wrist, and the two fought together.

   After seven or eight moves in an instant, Yundong realized that his opponent was superior to him.

   "Jin Linwei handles the case, where are you from?" Yun Dong asked in a low voice.

  The man didn't say a word, and his moves became more and more fierce. It didn't take long to find a flaw and strangled Yundong by the throat.

  Yun Dong remained motionless, his face livid.

  He is not weak in skill, and he can even be said to be one of the best in Jinlinwei. He did not expect to be defeated after dozens of moves.

   Who is the **** who fought against him?

  These thoughts just flashed, and the hand that was holding his vitals was released.

  Yun Dong quickly turned around, and saw that the person's feet quickly disappeared into the sea of ​​people like the wind.

  Yun Dong couldn't help frowning.

  Although the man attacked aggressively, he didn't feel any killing intent.

  In other words, the man didn't want his life in the first place, but—Yun Dong looked in the direction in which the person who assassinated Pingli was retreating.

  The purpose of that person is to prevent him from chasing the person who assassinated Hiruri.

why is that?

  Yundong was thinking about it, and several Jinlin guards brought Pingli over: "Fifth Master, there is poison in the arrow, and Pingli's situation is not good."

  Pingli was supported by two Jinlin guards, his eyes were closed, his face was dark, and his head was drooping weakly.

  The arrow still stuck in his shoulder.

  Since the poison on the arrow is poisonous, it means that the person on that side is determined to save their lives, and nine out of ten it is highly poisonous.

  Yun Dong wrapped his hands in a cloth towel and pulled out the arrow, and a stream of black blood with a stench gushed out immediately.

  He immediately took out a dagger and gouged out the piece of meat from Pingli's shoulder, wrapped it in a cloth strip, and ordered: "Take it back first and then talk about it."

   The moment the flesh and blood were gouged out, he trembled with his eyes closed, and then there was no movement again.

   Hiraguri fell into a long dream.

  In the dream, he went back to his childhood as the eight-year-old beggar.

  He hasn’t eaten enough for a long time, and occasionally kind people pour the leftovers into his broken bowl, and he can even smell the bad smell in summer.

  Even so, he would gobble it up.

  He has seen too many beggars who were begging together yesterday, and turned into cold corpses the next day, dragged away and thrown into mass graves.

   Eat more to survive and grow up. He doesn't want to be thrown into a mass grave and let wild dogs bite his body.

   Until today, there was an extra meat bun in his bowl.

  The fat, fluffy meat buns are still steaming, fresh out of the pan.

   At that moment, he went crazy.

   Whoever snatches his meat buns, he will fight desperately!

   Later, he lived a life of rich clothes and fine food. He thought many times, if his adoptive father did not show up that day, would it be worth it for him to be beaten to death to protect Rou Mantou?

   That answer never changed: Of course it was worth it.

   It was the time when he desperately fought for a meat bun that he realized that there are some things worth risking his life for.

  The neck was strangled, and it became more and more difficult to breathe, but he was still biting the arm of the beggar who snatched his meat buns and would not let go.

  When his eyes were blurred, he saw a pair of feet stop in front of him.

  The beggar who strangled his neck was thrown aside, and the man bent down and handed the meat bun to his eyes.

   Regardless of the burning throat, he desperately stuffed the meat buns into his mouth, and heard the man ask him, "Will you come with me? I will eat meat buns every day from now on."

   With a meat bun stuffed in his mouth, he nodded fiercely.

   In the blurred vision, the man was tall and gentle.

  All the chaos became clear at this moment: He remembered, and he was thinking at that time, how lucky he was to meet a great kind person.

  A tear trickled down from the corner of Pingli's eye.

   It turned out that it was never the meat bun that changed the fate of his beggar, but the adoptive father.

   It's just that he doesn't want to recall the experience of being a beggar, and forgets it.

  …

   "Pingli, Pingli—" Yun Dong shook Pingli's arm.

  Ping Li's head drooped weakly, without any response.

  Yun Dong stretched out his hand to check Tan Pingli's breath, his complexion changed slightly.

   Can't find it!

  The doctor was once again invited to the Jinlinwei Yamen.

  After the examination, the doctor shook his head: "The person is gone."

  Yundong looked at Chief Governor Luo, but Chief Governor Luo did not respond.

  Yundong winked, and a Jinlin guard took the doctor down.

   "Father—"

   "Go out and talk."

  The snow that day still remained on the eaves and under the trees, but most of the scenery showed its original appearance.

  Desolate and desolate, just like every winter in the capital.

   "The person who stopped you and the person who assassinated Pingli are the same group?"

  Yundong was silent for a while and said: "Although there is no evidence, my child thinks otherwise."

  The person who blocked him had already pinched his vitals, and breaking his neck was only an instant thing, and it did not delay that person's escape.

  But the man chose to let him go.

  Luo Dadu rubbed the center of his eyebrows, and said lightly: "You can deal with the matter of Pingli."

"yes."

  Governor Luo looked back at the half-closed door, and strode away.

  Luo Sheng got the news later in the evening.

   "Girl, you can't even imagine how lively the scene is. There are several groups of people staring at Pingli..." Kerr said happily.

  Since extending her eyeliner to the whole city, Kouer seems to have found her life goal all of a sudden, and for a while, she even lost her desire to compete with Hongdou for the number one maid.

  Those beggars surrounding the meat bun stand are from Luo Sheng's side.

   "Did our people follow?" Luo Sheng asked.

   "Don't worry, girl, Dongcheng lacks everything, but there is no shortage of beggars. There are people from us along the way."

  Luo Sheng nodded slightly and said nothing more.

  Use these beggars, don't expect them to stop people, if you can find the lair of the killer organization, it will be a big gain.

  At this time, Shi Yan, who had reported the news to Wei Han, wandered around to see his elder brother Shi Huo.

   "Brother, I heard that the master sent you to clean the Gong bucket, what's going on?"

   Cleaning the Gong barrel used to be his errand, and occasionally the fourth brother shared it. Why is it suddenly the eldest brother's turn?

  Shi Huo asked coldly: "Didn't the third brother stay at Miss Luo's restaurant to help, why did you come back?"

  Shi Yan suppressed his complacency and sighed: "I can't help it. Didn't the eldest brother know that my younger brother pretended to be a fortune-teller? The master specially ordered me to supervise those Jinlin guards, lest they spoil the master's affairs..."

   Like him who can raise geese, pretend to be a fortune teller, and be the personal guard of the waiter in the shop, he is one in a thousand.

   Those who are capable work harder, and there is no way to do it if you are too good.

  Shi Huo pursed his lips: "Come here."

   "What's the matter, brother?"

  Shi Huo kicked over.
