Chapter 83: Tracking
Shen Xingnan followed him not far behind the beggar, and after hearing what his wife said, he also felt that this beggar was very wrong. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
This person is looking so far and left now, he didn't think about asking for food at all, Shen Xingnan followed him all the way through the alley, and then came to the back door of a courtyard.
The beggar knocked on the door rhythmically, and after a while, the same person who had come to open the door two times before, opened the door, and when he opened it, he first poked his head out and looked left and right.
Shen Xingnan alertly aimed at the next door to the courtyard where the person was, and there happened to be a thatched roof next to the wall, so he immediately flew on the roof and lay down, just avoiding the sight of the person who opened the door.
The man who opened the door saw that there was no one in the alley at either end, and only then did he turn sideways and let the beggar in.
Shen Xingnan was lying on this roof, and it happened that he could clearly hear the conversation between the two in the courtyard next door, and when he raised his head slightly, he could see the movement in the courtyard next door.
After the man who opened the door led the beggar into the door, he began to lecture the beggar with some irritation.
"Didn't I tell you not to come if you didn't have anything to do!"
The beggar looked at the man who opened the door for him, and he dared to teach himself such a lesson, and he replied unceremoniously when he mentioned it in one breath.
"I can't come or not, it's your turn to teach me, and I don't see who I am! Why, do you think you are higher than me? Without grandpa, you wouldn't even be a fart!"
The man who opened the door was obviously annoyed by the beggar's tone and attitude, and he scolded angrily at the moment.
"You don't know what to do, can you live comfortably without us? What the hell ......?"
The beggar was not verbose, raised his right hand, cocked his tail finger and plucked it out of his right ear, with a dead face, how do you take me, and after plucking out the ear, he also blew the tail finger of his right hand with his mouth.
"It's not grandpa, I look down on you, grandpa I don't talk to little Luoluo, hurry up and lead me to see your manager, don't talk nonsense."
"You ......"
The man who opened the door obviously had nothing to do with this scoundrel, and you couldn't say anything for a long time, so you had to open your mouth in the end.
"You wait for me, I'll go and tell you, don't run around, and, don't look at what you shouldn't see, don't ask what you shouldn't ask!" When the man was about to enter the house, he turned around and warned the beggar.
"Phew, whatever!" When he saw the man enter the house, the beggar angrily spat at the door that the man had just closed.
After a while the man opened the door again, and said disdainfully to the beggar, "Come in, our master wants to see you."
Then the beggar followed the man into the house.
Shen Xingnan saw this and pondered in his heart, it seems that this beggar is really a problem with this courtyard, he glanced around the courtyard, it is obvious that there is almost no cover around this courtyard, it is very difficult to get close to investigate, it seems that the owner of this courtyard is also a smart person.
But how could this stump him Shen Xingnan? Shen Xingnan's figure flashed, first flew to the roof of the main house in the courtyard where he was, and then quickly flashed to the roof of the room where the beggar had just entered, and he quietly lay down and began to check the surrounding environment.
Obviously, this is a three-entry courtyard, and he is in the last of the courtyard, and there is a room in the middle, and the front row of rooms is estimated to be a row of storefronts according to Shen Xingnan's judgment, because there is a faint sound of buyers and sellers shouting Chen Ji hemp candy.
In broad daylight, the courtyard between the second and third entrances is also unobstructed, but the people next door only have one entry into the house, only side by side with the third entrance in this courtyard, so now Shen Xingnan has no way to get close to the middle one to enter the house.
But the most annoying thing was that the man who opened the door led the beggar to the middle one into the house.
Shen Xingnan scolded secretly, damn it, for the sake of today, he can only take a look at whether there is something strange in the house he is in.
He first looked up at the position of the sun, then moved downward, and carefully uncovered a tile, which was fine, no sunlight penetrated through the gap. Through the gaps in the tiles, Shen Xingnan began to observe the movement in the room.
There were two large kangs connected to each other in this room, and two sturdy men slept on them, and both of them had weapons around them in the room, both of which were long knives.
But he couldn't judge anything based on these alone, after Shen Xingnan carefully covered the tiles back, he still raised his eyes and looked at the one in the middle of the room, he thought that he still had to find a chance to explore there, maybe there would be a harvest there.
In order not to startle the snake, Shen Xingnan flew away decisively, he did not leave immediately to meet his wife and children, but went around the alley, and according to the result of his judgment just now, he came to the street where the first entrance of the courtyard was located.
Shen Xingnan straightened the clothes on his body, and after seeing that there was nothing wrong, he calmly came to the street and found the shouting 'hemp candy, Chen Ji hemp candy' that he heard on the roof just now.
Shen Xingnan paced to the small stall selling hemp candy, pretending to buy something and asking the price, and looked up at the opposite side, Shen Xingnan saw three Pei Ji Mountain goods stores with the same door, according to the direction, this Pei Ji happened to be the first entry in the courtyard he was looking for.
There were a lot of people coming in and out of the shop, and there were a few guys in it who were greeting customers, but they didn't see the shopkeeper there.
Shen Xingnan secretly watched and waited, he bought some hemp candy first and quickly returned to the alley in Pei Ji's backyard, preparing to squat at the previous beggar there, before returning to the alley to hide his figure, and the beggar came out of the back door.
Shen Xingnan didn't say a word and raised his feet to follow behind the beggar, at this time he was thinking while following, it seems that he has to report to Jiang Qianhu, and then find a reliable person to come to Pei Ji to investigate.
followed the beggar to a dilapidated house in the westernmost part of the town, and saw the beggar enter the house as naturally as if he was going home, and waited for a while and no one came out, and then Shen Xingnan left.
The most important thing for now is to go and meet up with his wife and children, otherwise they will really have to wait.
By the time Shen Xingnan returned to the wonton stall, an hour had passed, and Brother An had been impatient for a long time.
After seeing his father finally come back to find him and his mother, his little ass couldn't sit still anymore, and he slid off the bench and ran towards Shen Xingnan.
Shen Xingnan stepped forward a few steps forward and picked up his son who was running towards him, and took the hemp candy in his hand to Brother An, Li Yunbao still saw from a distance that Brother An, who had a small face, finally had a smile.
The little guy is becoming more and more afraid of himself and Shen Xingnan, this kid is too shrewd, he knows who really likes him, who is good to him, and who is bad to him, and he has a clear heart.
Li Yunbao first gave the two bowls of wonton money to the boss, and then carried a small basket on his back, and walked in the direction of his husband and son with a large basket in his hand.
"Why did you go for so long?"
Shen Xingnan knew that he was at a loss, touched his nose and said, "Wait a minute, I apologize to you!" Hey, the hemp candy I bought for you and your son. ”
"It's okay, it's just that Brother An'er is a little anxious, and now it's okay, right? Can we go shopping?"
"Well, give me the back basket, An'er sits in the back basket, is it okay for Daddy to carry you?"
As he spoke, he passed the big basket that Li Yunbao handed him, and then put Brother An, who was pointing straight at his little head, into the big basket, and after he carried his son, he also motioned for Li Yunbao to follow him.
"Let's go, go shopping!"
A family of three spent a lot of copper plates, bought fish, meat, eggs, lard oil, wicks, and lamp oil at the request of Li Yunbao.
When I arrived, I went to the grain store and bought 100 catties of white flour, 100 catties of cornmeal, and 100 catties of sweet potato flour, which are used to make dry noodles and sweet potato vermicelli.
