The young man in the fancy clothes waited for the servants to leave, shook his head and sighed, turned to the young man and said, "Brother Yang, don't come to harm?" Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The girl pursed her mouth, but she did not speak.

These three people are naturally Yang Ling and his party, they are not looking for Fang Xu, the clues are broken, and Wei Zhongxian's Fengyang Conference is too early, so they can't help but return to Dengfeng City to tour around, hoping to make new discoveries.

Yang Ling also smiled and said, "Brother Luo is worried." ”

That son is none other than Luo Cailing's brother, "Little Tuoming Knife" Luo Yangxing. Luo Yangxing and Gu Xun didn't know each other, and Yang Ling didn't mention it after an introduction.

The four of them sat down again and drank tea. Yang Ling asked, "I don't know what kind of business Brother Luo is here?" Luo Yangxing smiled: "Luo is here, there are about three things. The first of them is to find Brother Yang. "Oh?" Yang Ling was stunned: "I want to hear it in detail." ”

Luo Yangxing sipped fragrant tea lightly and sighed: "Luo deeply regrets the matter of Ling Zun. However, revenge must not be rushed. Luo Yangxing was stunned: "This was originally the intention of my father, presumably Cai Ling has already told Brother Yang." Brother Yang is known for his great wisdom, and he is expected to come to the trick, so he will not know it, and Luo does not need to say much. ”

After Luo Yangxing finished speaking, he looked at Luo Cailing again: "As for Cailing, this girl, she eavesdropped on the conversation between her father and me, and knew about the Donglin tragedy, so she was worried about Brother Yang's safety, so she said goodbye without saying goodbye." My father guessed that she must have come south to look for Brother Yang. ”

When Luo Cailing heard this, his mouth pouted, but he didn't speak. Yang Ling felt that his eyes and nose were sour, nodded his head, and said: "What Brother Luo said is very true, please tell Uncle Luo, Yang will be patient and wait for the opportunity." ”

Luo Yangxing bowed slightly, and continued: "As for the second matter, it is a series of cases. Just now, you also heard Dengfeng Arrest talk about this case, thinking that you know a little about it, but you don't know it. ”

Yang Ling hurriedly said: "Exactly, please also ask Brother Luo to tell me." At first, he listened to the head catcher talking, and said that this matter actually wanted to affect Songshan Shaolin, he was originally from Shaolin, and intended to help each other, so he asked.

Luo Yangxing said: "This case started from Hengyang to Wuchang Mansion, along the line of the Yangtze River, to Anqing, Yingtian, Huai'an Prefecture, and now to Dengfeng, in addition to the murder case in Wuchang, all the mansions in Anqing are good family girls were taken captive and lost their innocence. At present, there are more than 20 victims, most of whom are wealthy officials and eunuchs, and there are also several poor households, and all of the victims are beautiful people. The governments tried their best to arrest the culprit, but nothing was found. ”

Yang Ling groaned slightly, and said angrily: "This thief destroys people's innocence, how is it different from murder? It is really hateful! There is not even any news along the way...... Otherwise, Yang will definitely pay attention to capture this thief. "In the Ming Dynasty, ethics were particularly important, and women who lost their virginity were often spurned by their husbands, and if they were virgins, they were worse than dead.

"Hmph, it's not that the government is incompetent, and it is difficult to get the murderer after raising some rice buckets. So the news was blocked, and if it was handed over to a talented person, the case would have been solved long ago. Luo Cailing suddenly interjected.

Luo Yangxing smiled and said: "Although the government is incompetent, if that thief has no outstanding artistic career, he will never dare to commit murder under the feet of Hengshan and even the Shaolin faction." ”

Gu Xun said: "What Luo Shaoxia said is extremely true, Hengyang is the foothold of the Hengshan faction, Dengfeng is the station of the Shaolin faction, and there are many chivalrous sects on this line, this thief has no scruples." ”

"Hmph. Cai Ling knew that she couldn't refute it, so she only pouted. Luo Yangxing continued: "Qiu Ruhai, the head catcher under the jurisdiction of Wuchang Mansion, was in Kyoto on the day of the crime, so Wuchang Mansion sent a document to urgently recruit him back. That Qiu Ruhai used to be a subordinate of his father, and when Luo was about to go south, he went with him. Along the way, he received documents from various provinces and ministries, ordering Qiu Ruhai to track down along the way, and to solve the case as soon as possible. ”

"I don't know if Brother Luo has a way to arrest him?" Yang Ling saw that he looked confident, and he didn't feel like he asked. Luo Yangxing took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Since this thief is lustful, why not catch him as he likes?"

Yang Ling was stunned for a moment, and Luo Yangxing continued: "There is a daughter of a wealthy family in the north of Dengfeng City, known as the first beauty in Dengfeng, and since the thief has committed a crime in Dongcheng, he will definitely not miss this woman." He put down the teacup and muttered, "It's just strange, the thief committed the crime the day before yesterday, but there was no movement yesterday." But it's okay, if the crime had been committed yesterday, and we hadn't arrived yet, I was afraid that we would have fled for him again. ”

Gu Xun nodded: "This plan is very good. Yang Ling was also the head of the chin, but when she saw Luo Cailing grabbing the corner of her clothes by herself, she looked indifferent, which violated her nature, and asked unconsciously: "Cailing, what's wrong with you, are you uncomfortable?"

Luo Cailing pouted and said, "No, I'm fine." ”

"What else can you do, you have been away from home for so long without permission, and you are not afraid that your father and mother will worry?" Luo Yangxing's tone suddenly became stern. "I ...... I ......" Cai Ling seemed to stop talking, biting her lip.

"When I finish this case, you will go back to Beijing with me. "Luo Yangxing is going to come to La Cailing after speaking. Luo Cailing flashed and shouted, "No! I don't want to! I don't want to go back with you!"

Luo Yangxing's expression was cold, and he said: "Which tendon you have made a mistake, you will know that you are in trouble when you come out, and go back with me." ”

"Where am I in trouble again?" Luo Cailing did not follow.

"Isn't it? If it weren't for Senior Gu and Brother Yang by his side, and if I hadn't arrived in time, wouldn't you be going to get into trouble with Dengfeng Mansion? When I inquired about it, it was actually the daughter of the Luo family, and I don't know how much to do with it. Luo Yangxing got up, flicked his sleeves, and looked angry.

"Don't you see those bastards insulting your sister?" Cai Ling said angrily. Luo Yangxing said lightly: "That's also what you asked for." ”

"You, are you still my brother?" Luo Cailing wanted to cry, Yang Ling couldn't bear it when he saw this, and hurriedly said: "Brother Luo, it's no wonder that Cailing is the right talent, those few people who catch fast and bully the old and the weak should also be taught a lesson." ”

"Brother Yang, it's not that you don't know my sister, so you love to make trouble. My brother wishes she would get married as soon as possible, so as to save her worries. ”

"Yes, you don't like me! So you have to marry me off, I don't want to! I don't want to marry that straw bag!" Luo Cailing couldn't hold back anymore, and tears flowed down her eyes.

Yang Ling was stunned, and said in his heart: "Cai Ling actually escaped from marriage?" But he heard Luo Yangxing say: "What is Cui Shangshu's son who is not worthy of you?" Cai Ling cried and said: "I don't like it, I just don't like that straw bag, can't I? I don't want to marry her, I don't want to!"

"Cui Shangshu!?" Yang Ling's heart was even more shocked: "Isn't it Cui Chengxiu, the secretary of the military department who is one of the 'Five Tigers' under Wei Zhongxian? How could it be him? Why did Uncle Luo marry Cai Ling to Cui Chengxiu's son? Could it be ...... Could it be that Uncle Luo wants to maneuver in the imperial court through Cailing's marriage? No, no, Uncle Luo is not this kind of person. But...... Cai Ling ......"

Luo Cailing has been looking for each other for thousands of miles, and he has a true feeling, Yang Ling is in the prime of life, how can he not know? But he is nearly ten years older than Cailing, and he only treats her as a sister, and there is really no love between men and women in his heart. As soon as he thought of this, his mind was confused, and he didn't listen to a word of the conversation between Luo Yangxing and Cai Ling.

Luo Yangxing "hummed" and said: "Daddy has already agreed, I can't help you, you better go back with me obediently." The more Cai Ling cried, the more sad she became: "Why? Why can you chase someone you like, and I want to marry someone I don't like? Since you are here, they must be there!"

Luo Yangxing was quite embarrassed, and reprimanded: "What are you doing with me, don't go crazy here, and don't be afraid of Gu seniors and your big brother Yang laughing!" After speaking, he was going to arrest Luo Cailing.

"I don't want to go back with you!!" Cai Ling turned around and flashed, although her martial arts skills were not as good as her brother's, her light skills were extraordinary. Although Luo Yangxing grabbed this quickly, he only tore off one of her sleeves.

Luo Cailing jumped out of the teahouse and disappeared as soon as he slipped through the smoke.

"This damn girl!" Luo Yangxing threw away the broken sleeve, and was about to chase after him, Yang Ling came back to his senses and hurriedly stopped him: "Brother Luo, don't force Cai Ling first, this will only backfire." ”

Gu Xun also said: "Hey, since ancient times, the life of the parents is true, but such persecution is not a way, you have to persuade each other well." Gu and Yang also knew that this was his Luo family's family matter, so it was inconvenient to say more, so they would stop here.

Luo Yangxing sighed and said, "Cailing, this girl, is willful. Jia Yan also loves and hates her, and the third thing Luo did when he went south this time was to find this girl and take her back. As for whether she wants to marry or not, let's wait for her to go back and make a decision. ”

Yang Ling bowed his head and said, "What Brother Luo said is true. He suddenly thought of something: "Oh no, Cai Ling is walking alone this time, what if he bumps into that flower thief?"

Luo Yangxing said: "Brother Yang and relieved, although my sister is willful and naughty, her behavior is strange, but she is good at light work, even if she meets that thief, she can get away if she can't beat it." He paused, and then said, "The most urgent task now is to catch the flower thieves who have committed crimes everywhere." I wonder if the two of you would like to go to the government together to help Luo capture the thief?"

Gu Xun twisted his beard and said: "There is nothing to do left and right, the old man is willing to help Luo Shaoxia." Yang Ling also said: "You should serve." ”

The three of them paid for the tea and went to the Dengfeng Mansion.

Night. The autumn wind rubs the branches and leaves, and the salsa sounds softly. In the inner courtyard of the wealthy Zhang's family in the north of the city, the family members are patrolling as usual.

"I don't know if the thief will come tonight. One of the housekeepers sighed lowly. The man next to him reprimanded: "Be quiet, we will take care of our own patrols, and leave the rest to the head of the enemy, so why bother asking." He looked around and said, "There's no movement here, let's go to the master's study to have a look." "Anyway, turn to the deviation.

At this moment, a dark shadow avoided the four of them, quickly walked through the inner courtyard, and ran towards Miss Zhang's boudoir.

The black figure was tall, dressed in tight clothes, but not masked, and his arms were extremely thick, and his left arm was wrapped around his shoulder. He turned over the platform and saw three people in the tree in the courtyard, one of whom was waving to him.

"Hate. The three of them jumped down from the tree, but they didn't make any sound, which shows that the light skills are extremely high.

"Master Luo, is that guy coming!?"

It turned out that the black shadow was none other than Wuchang's "Iron Rope God Hunting" Qiu Ruhai, and the three people on the tree were Luo Yangxing and others. They returned to the yamen to discuss the decision, and it was expected that it was too late to wait for the response of Shaolin, so in order to prevent thieves, Qiu Ruhai arranged to catch and explore in various places in the north of the city, while Luo, Yang, and Gu waited for the rabbit in Zhang's house.

"I haven't seen it yet. ”

Qiu was as dark as Haisheng, his face was like iron, but his expression was slightly frightened.

Luo Yangxing's eyes were like torches, and he asked at the moment: "Could it be that Brother Qiu has fought with that person?" Qiu Ruhai shook his head: "It's not that this hasn't, it's just that this thief's martial arts are high...... It's really, it's unbelievable.

"Oh? Luo Yangxing seems to have no faith.

Yang Ling said: "Brother Qiu, take a breath and speak slowly." ”
