However, he said that the old cripple was entrusted by Bai Gong that day, and returned to the apartment in the afternoon to figure out what to do. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info store to report: "There is a messenger in the county Xu Liang who asks to see." The old cripple said, "Call him in." Xu Liang came in, called a thousand children, and stepped forward and replied: "Please show the master: Xu Liang is still here to serve the master's payment, or send Xu Liang there first?" A thousand pieces of silver have been allocated from the county, and I have to ask for instructions: should I send it to this place, or will it be stored in the village for use? The old man said: "The silver is not needed yet, it is stored in the village." But this case is really difficult to handle: taking poison must be good, but it is not an ordinary poison; The joints are not hard and the color remains the same, and these two joints are the most important. I'm afraid it's some kind of Western medicine, I'm afraid it's 'Indian grass' and other things. I'll go to the provincial capital tomorrow, there is a big Chinese and Western pharmacy, I'll investigate once. But you went to Qidong Village first, and secretly checked, and there were no people who had dealings with foreigners. It would be interesting to find out the origin of this poison. But where shall I go with you? Xu Liang said: "The little one has a brother named Xu Ming, and now bring it, and ask him to serve the master." If there is something, the head of the other person is also very familiar, and if he pays for it, it will be easy to do. The old cripple nodded and said, "Very good." ”

Xu Liang beckoned out, walked in a man in his thirties, and hit a thousand children in front of him. Xu Liang said: "This is the little brother Xu Ming. He said to Xu Ming: "You don't have to go, just serve Lord Tie here." Xu Liang said again: "I want to see my aunt." The old remnant opened the curtain and saw that Huancui was sitting against the window, that is, the two of them met, and each of them asked for a peace, and Huancui replied twice. Xu Liang took Xu Ming with him and went home to carry his luggage.

When it was time to turn on the lights, Renrui also came back and said, "I was going to leave two days ago, but because I was not at ease with this case, I was detained by Zi Jin. Today's big case is over, and I will go to the provincial sales business tomorrow morning. The old man said: "I also want to go into the province." one is to go to Chinese and Western pharmacies and other places to investigate poisons; The second is to put this tired pendant in a place, so that I can get rid of my body and do things. Ren Rui said: "The house in my mansion is very large, you might as well live with me for the time being." If it's not good, how about slowly looking for a house? The old man said: "That's very good." The old mother who served Huancui refused to follow up with the province, Xu Ming said: "The little woman can send her aunt and wife into the province and come back when she hires the old mother." "Arrange them one by one. Huancui had no choice but to call his brother and paid a few taels of silver, and the sister cried. Cars and other categories have their own Xu Ming to take care of.

Early the next morning, everyone set off together. Walking to the edge of the Yellow River, the old disabled Tongren Rui did not dare to take the car, so he got out of the car and prepared to cross the river on foot. There was a car waiting by the Nazhi River, and when she saw them coming, a woman jumped out of the car, grabbed Huancui, and cried loudly.

Who are you? It turned out that Ren Rui got up early today, so he didn't call Cuihua, and all the expenses were sent by Huang Sheng. Cuihua was afraid that there would be an official in the inn to see him off, and he did not dare to come at night, so he didn't sleep all night, and he hired a trailer to wait by the Yellow River at dawn, which was also the meaning of farewell in the ten-mile long pavilion. After crying for a while, the old disabled fellow Ruijun comforted him a few words, and crossed the river on the ice.

After crossing the river to the province, it was only forty miles, and after a clock, he had arrived in front of the mansion of the Yellow Man Ruidong Arrow Road, and got off the car and entered. Huang Renrui has to fulfill the obligations of his master's family, so there is no need to repeat it.

After dinner, the old man sent Xu Ming to buy luggage for him, but on the other hand, he went to the Chinese and Western pharmacies, found a shopkeeper, and carefully compared them. It turned out that the pharmacy was only cooked medicine in various bottles sold in Shanghai, but there was no raw medicine. When I asked him about chemistry, he didn't even understand it, and he knew that he didn't go here.

I wondered in my heart, and went to see Yao Yunsong on the way. It happened that Yao Gong was at home and stayed for dinner.

Yao Gong said: "The matter of Qihe County, Bai Zishou arrived last night, and he saw the palace guard, explained the above situation, and said that he asked you to do it, the palace guard liked it very much, but he didn't know that you came to the province." Will you see the palace guard tomorrow? The old man said: "I won't see it, I still have something." So he asked Cao Zhou's letter: "What did you say to Gong Bao?" Yao Gong said: "I presented the original letter to the palace guard." The palace guard saw it, felt uncomfortable for several days, and said that from now on, he would not know how to protect him. The old man said: "Why don't you withdraw him and return to the province?" Yun Song smiled: "You are an outsider." Is there a reason to withdraw from the province if it is only clear that it is protected? Who does not protect the shortness of the world! This kung bao is already rare. The old cripple nodded. After talking for a long time, the old man began to return.

The next day, he went to the Catholic Church again to visit the priest named Krus. It turned out that this priest was familiar with both Western medicine and chemistry. The old cripple was so proud that he told him about the case and asked him what medicine he was taking. After thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't come up with it, and after checking the book for a while, he still didn't get in touch with the situation, and said, "I'll visit someone else for you." That's all I learned. ”

When the old cripple heard this, he was disappointed again. There is nothing to do in the province, that is, pack up, take Xu Ming, and go to Qihe County. Because I thought about how to visit Qidong Village? In a hurry, I still made a string of bells, bought an old medicine box, and prepared a lot of medicinal materials. But he told Xu Ming not to go together, and they all met in the village, as if they didn't know. Xu Ming went. But he hired a small car in Qihe County, and explained that he paid a monthly fee of three dollars a day; I was afraid that the coachman would leak the mechanism, so he even hid the coachman, so he said: "I want to practice medicine, there is no business in this county, are there any big villages and towns nearby?" The coachman said: "There is a big village and town in the northeast forty-five miles, called Qidong Village, which is lively, and there are three or eight big gatherings every month, and people from dozens of miles go to the market." You should go there and find some business. The old cripple said, "Very good." The next day, I put my luggage in the car, half walked and half sat by myself, and arrived at Qidong Village early. It turns out that there is an east-west street in this village, which is very lively; To the south and north, there are small streets.

The old cripple walked back and forth, and saw that there were inns at both ends of the street; There is a shop in the east, called Sanhexing, and it looks like it is still clean, so I went to rent a west wing room to live. Inside the room was a big kang, and the coachman was asked to sleep on one end and he himself on the other. The next day, I slept until the beginning of the day, I got up, had breakfast, and went to the street with a string of bells. Before that, I walked to a small street on the north side of the street, and there was a big gatehouse, and I thought to myself, "It's always everyone." And he stood on his feet, and shook the bell with all his might. I saw a black-bearded old man come out of it and asked, "Do you know how to treat injuries?" The old cripple said, "I know the idea." Then the old man went in, and came out, and said, "Please sit inside." "When you enter the gate, you will find the second gate, and then you will enter the hall. When he went to the ear room, he saw an old man sitting on the edge of the kang, and when he saw the old man, he stood up and said, "Sir, please take a seat." ”

The old cripple recognized it as Wei Qian, but deliberately asked, "Your old surname?" Wei Qian said: "The surname is Wei." What is your last name, sir? The old remnant said: "The surname is Jin." Wei Qian said: "I have a little girl who has pain in the joints of her limbs, what medicine can cure it?" The old cripple said: "If you don't see the symptoms, how can you get medicine?" Wei Qian said: "That's right." So he called for someone to come to the back and inform him.

After a short pause, it said, "Please." Wei Qian went to the east wing behind the hall with the old man. This wing room is three, two bright and one dark. Walking to the inside, I saw a woman in her thirties, described as haggard, leaning on a kang, sitting cross-legged on the kang, trying to barely get off the kang, and she looked like she couldn't support it. The old cripple shouted: "Don't move, take the pulse." Wei Lao'er let the old man sit on the head, but he sat on the stool to accompany him.

The old man checked the pulse of both hands and said, "Grandma's illness is that the blood stasis has stopped. Please look at both hands. Wei Shi stretched out his hand on the kang table, and when the old man saw it, he couldn't help but sigh in his stomach and said, "Old man, the student has a presumptuous thing to say. Wei Lao said: "But it's okay to say." The old man said: "Don't talk about it." This is like a disease that has been punished by officials, and if it is not cured early, it will become a cripple. Wei Lao sighed and said, "Not really." Please treat the gentleman according to the symptoms, and if he is better, he should thank himself. The old man prescribed a prescription and said, "If it works, I live in the Sanhexing store, and you can come and call me." ”

Since then, he has been coming and going every day, and after three or four days, the people are also familiar, and Wei Lao stays in the front hall to eat and drink. The old man asked: "How can such a big family in the house be punished by officials?" Wei Lao said: "Mr. Lord, you outsiders, don't know. My daughter is married to the eldest son of the Jia family, but my son-in-law died last year. He has a sister-in-law, Jia Danizi, who has eyebrows with Wu Er's prodigal son in the West Village, and he has long had an meaning. When I said that I was married, it was my ignorant daughter who broke it, who knew that Jia Danizi hated my daughter for her bone marrow. In the spring of this year, Jia Danizi hooked up with Wu Er's prodigal son at his aunt's house, and he didn't know what medicine he used, and he killed the whole Jia family, but he went to the county to sue my daughter for murder. I met a person surnamed Gang with a thousand knives and ten thousand knives, and I was determined, saying that there was arsenic in the moon cakes sent by my family, and I don't know how many times my daughter has died. I heard that Ling Chi's case has been decided, and the good god has eyes, Futai sent a relative to pay a private visit, and he lived in Nanguandian, visited my family and reported to Futai. Futai immediately issued an official document asking the court to loosen the torture instruments of our father and daughter. In less than ten days, Futai sent another Bai adult. It's really a blue sky-sama! In one hour, all the wrongs of my family were washed away! I heard that someone was sent here to investigate this case. Wu Er's prodigal son, that Wang Balamb, when we were in prison, he and Jia Danizi were together every day. When he heard that the case was overturned, he fled. ”

The old man said: "You have suffered such a great grievance, why don't you sue him?" Wei Lao'er said: "Is the lawsuit easy to fight?" I sued him, and he asked what about the credentials? If you can't hold the double, you will bite back, and you will not be able to bear it. God has eyes, and one day he will be retribution! ”

The old man asked, "What is this poison?" Have you heard people say it all the time? Wei Lao said: "Who knows! Because we have an old mother in our family, his man's name is Wang Er, and he is a water porter. That day, the day when the Jia family died, Wang Er was fetching water at Jia's house, and saw Wu Er's prodigal son going to his house to gossip, Jia's family was cooking noodles to eat, Wang Er saw Wu Er's prodigal son using a small bottle to pour into the noodle pot and ran away. Wang Er was a little puzzled in his heart, and later asked him to eat noodles in the kitchen of the Jia family, but he didn't dare to eat them. In less than two hours, there was a lot of noise. Wang Er didn't dare to tell anyone, only his wife knew and told my daughter. When I called the second king, he was convinced, and said, 'I don't know.' When he asked his wife again, he didn't dare to say anything. I heard that my wife went back and was beaten up by Wang Erjie. Do you always think, do you dare to sue the official about this? The old cripple sighed. At that time, he went out of the Wei family, found Xu Liang, told the Wei family what he had heard, and asked him to call Wang Er first.

The next day, Xu Liang and Wang Er came. The old man gave him twenty taels of silver to settle in, and told him to follow and testify: "We will provide all the food and expenses, and we will give you a hundred pieces of silver when the work is over." Wang Erchu still tried his best to deny it, and when he saw twenty taels of silver on the table, he believed that it was true, so he said: "When the matter is over, if you don't give me a hundred silver, what dare I do?" The old cripple said, "Okay." I will give you a hundred pieces of silver, store it in a proper pawnshop, write a note to me, and say, 'Wu poured the potion with my own eyes, and I am willing to make a testimony.' After the deed, a certain brand will deposit one hundred taels of silver, which will be used by me. There is no falsehood between the two parties. 'Okay?' ”

Wang Ershang was a little hesitant. Xu Liang took out a hundred pieces of silver and handed it to him, saying, "I'm not afraid that you will run away, you take it first, what's the matter?" If you don't want to, you can tear it down. Wang Er pondered for a while, and he was reluctant to give up the silver, so he agreed. The old cripple took the pen and wrote it as it was, and ordered Wang Er to take the silver first, and then read the pen to him, and asked him to draw a cross and make a hand model. Do you think, when did you see two big ingots when you were carrying water in the countryside, you naturally happily made your handprints.

Xu Liang told the old remnant again: "Listen to the truth, Wu Er's prodigal son is now in the provincial capital." The old cripple said, "Then let's go into the province." You first find an eyeliner so that you can look for him. Xu Liang promised "yes" and said, "Master, we'll see you in the province." ”

The next day, the old disabled person went to Qihe County first, informed Zijin of the general situation, and then entered the province. He rewarded the coachman with a few taels of silver and sent him back. That night, Yao Yunweng was informed, asking him to transfer to the palace protection, and asked Licheng County to send two people to prepare for Xu Liang.

The next evening, Xu Liang came: "It has been investigated." Wu Er's prodigal son is now the same as the Zhang family prostitute in the South Hutong of Chasi Street, and Xiao Yinzi is hot. During the day, the same people gambled for money, and at night they lived in Xiaoyinzi's house. The old cripple asked, "Is this little silver family still one person, or how many people?" How many houses are there? Did you find out? Xu Liang replied: "This family has two sisters and lives in three houses. The two rooms in the west chamber are where his parents live. There are two rooms in the east wing: one is the kitchen, and the other is the door. When the old man heard this, he nodded, and said, "This person must not make a move." The case was too big for him to admit easily. Only Wang Er has one evidence, and he can't be suppressed. So he whispered to Xu Liang a detailed method, which was nothing more than this, so, and so.

After Xu Liang went, Yao Yunsong sent a letter: "Gong Baoku would like to see him, please come to the copywriting at noon tomorrow." The old remnant wrote a reply, and the next day he went to the courtyard and went to the copywriter Yao Gong's study first; Yao Gong's family informed the palace guard's family, and after a while, please meet in the visa room. Zhuang Gongbao has been greeted to the door, and in the welcoming room, the old man sat down.

The old cripple said: "I had a negative intention to protect the palace last time, but I had to go because of some personal matters." I think Gong Bao will be able to forgive. Gong Bao said: "The day before yesterday, I read the Dazai, but I didn't expect Yushou to be cruel like this, it is really a brother's sin, and I should always try to do it in the future." But at the moment, he doesn't dare to go back on his word, which doesn't seem to be the way of the monarch's father. The old cripple said: "Saving the people is to repay the king, it seems that it doesn't matter." Kung Pao was silent. After talking for half an hour, he took tea and left.

But he said that Xu Liang gave the old man's painting, so he went to this local prostitute's house, met Xiao Jinzi, and gambled with prostitutes. After a few days of work, he and Wu Er got along. At the beginning, Xu Liang lost four or five hundred silver to Wu Er's prodigal son, all of which were cash silver. Wu Er's prodigal son took Xu Liang as an old-fashioned man, but he gradually got it back, and won Wu Er's prodigal son seven or eight hundred silver, paid one or two hundred taels of silver, and the rest was all in arrears.

One day, Wu Er's prodigal son pushed pai gow, lost more than 300 silver to others, and lost more than 200 taels to Xu Liang, and the money he brought had already been exhausted, and he asked for money on the spot. Wu Er's prodigal son said, "One more gamble, settle the accounts." Everyone didn't agree, saying, "You can't get what you lose in front of you, and if you lose again, you can't get it." Wu Er's prodigal son said anxiously: "What I have in my family is money, and I have never relied on anyone's account." The money is gone, and I will send someone home to fetch it!" The crowd just shook their heads.

Xu Liang came out and said, "Second Brother Wu, I want to do this: when can you pay it back?" I'll lend it to you. But my money will be of great use in three days, so don't mistake me. Wu Er's prodigal son was anxious to gamble, and hurriedly said: "You can't be wrong!" Xu Liang gave him 500 taels of votes, deducting more than 200 taels of his winnings, and more than 200 taels remaining.

Wu Er saw that it was still not enough to repay the debt, so he told Xu Liang: "Big brother, big brother! You lend me another five hundred, and I will pay you back at once. Xu Liang asked: "What if you can't turn it over?" Wu Er said, "I will pay you back tomorrow." Xu Liang said: "There is no basis for your words, unless you set up a promissory note for tomorrow." Wu Er said: "Okay, okay, okay!" At that time, I found a pen, wrote a note, and handed it to Xu Liang. He also ordered five hundred taels of silver, paid off more than three hundred of the previous account, and left more than four hundred pieces of silver. "I won two in a row when we met, and I was very proud. Knowing that the limelight is good, everyone has shrunk their attention; Hate in my heart, the card fell unlucky, the more you push, the more you lose, the more you lose, the more angry you are, not half a head, more than 400 silver and lose all the money.

There is a man surnamed Tao in the seat, and everyone calls him Tao San Fat. Tao San said: "I'll go up and push a village." At this time, Wu Er had no capital, so he watched others fight. Tao San went up, took a little bit from the first one, and lost a Tongzhuang; The second one took eight points, Tianmen is the eighth of the earth, and the upper and lower villages are nine points, and they lost another Tongzhuang. Look at the Zhuang who is even more unlucky than Wu Er. Wu Er was so anxious that he jumped up, and told Xu Liang again: "Good brother! Good dear brother! Good dear! Lend me another two hundred pieces of silver." Xu Liang lent him another two hundred pieces of silver.

Wu Er struck the heavenly corner of one hundred silver, and the pass of one hundred silver. Xu Liang said: "Brother, let's fight less." Wu Er said, "It doesn't matter! "Turning over the cards, the dealer is a dead ten. Wu Er got two hundred silver, and he was very happy, and he didn't move. Fourth, the dealer lost Tianmen, Xia Zhuang, ate Shangzhuang, Wu Er's two hundred silver did not lose or win, for the second party, the first one, the dealer took a heavenly bar, eat all, Wu Er still has one hundred silver.

That knew that since then, not only Wu Er had already lost everything, but even Xu Liang had lost it all. Xu Liang was furious, took out Wu Er's pen note and put it on the table, and said, "Tianmen is lonely!" Do you dare to push? Tao San said: "Push down and dare to push, just don't want this kind of waste paper that can't get money." Xu Liang said: "Could it be that Second Master Wu lied to you, and my Uncle Xu would also lie to you?" "The two of them almost used force. Everyone persuaded: "Third Master Tao, you have won a lot, can you ignore this?" We all vouch: if you win; If he doesn't pay it back, we all pay it back! Tao San still refused, saying: "Unless Xu capitalizes on Baozhong." Xu Liang was extremely angry, and he wrote a guarantee with a pen, and noted that it was actually borrowed with affection, not an idle account. Tao Sanfang was willing to push one out and said: "Xu Da, listen to you pick a pair, I always win you!" Xu Liang said: "Don't blow it!" Roll your unlucky dice! "One throw is a seven-out. Xu Liang unveiled the cards to be the ninth of the sky, put the cards on the table, and said, "Tao San boy!" Look at your father's cards! Tao San looked at it, and didn't make a sound, took two cards and looked at one, but the other one was slowly drawn, and shouted in his mouth: "Ground!" Earth! Earth! As soon as he pulled it out, he looked at the table and said, "The grandson of the Xu family!" Look at your grandpa's cards! "It turned out to be a suitable ground bar for the sub-person. grabbed the note, and said in his mouth: "Xu Da! You don't have any money tomorrow, we'll see you in the yamen of Licheng County! "At that time, everyone ran out of money, and there was a little more than one hour in the day, so they had to disperse.

Xu and Wu returned to Xiaoyinzi's house and knocked on the door and said, "Hurry up and get the food to eat!" Hungry! "When there was a guest sitting in the little gold room, he went to the little silver room and sat down. Xiao Jinzi put his hand on Xu Liang's face and said, "Uncle, how much money did you win today, give me a few taels of flowers." Xu Liang said: "I lost more than a thousand!" Xiao Yinzi said: "Did the second master win?" Wu Er said, "Not to mention!" As he spoke, he brought the rice, a bowl of fish, a bowl of mutton, two bowls of vegetarian dishes, four plates, a hot pot, and two pots of wine. Xu Liang said: "Why is it so cold today? Xiao Jinzi said, "Today the northwest wind blew for a day, and the sky was overcast, and I am afraid it will snow." The two of them drank for a glass, and they were a little drunk unconsciously. I only heard someone call the door at the door, and I heard Xiao Jinzi's mother go out and open the door, and then came in and said, "Third master, I'm sorry, there is no room, please come tomorrow." Then I heard the man shout, "Fuck you!" The third master doesn't care if you have a house or not! What is the guest of the king? If you have the guts, come and touch the third master, and if you don't have the guts, you will look out for my four paws together! "It sounds like Tao San's fat man's voice. As soon as Xu Liang heard this, his anger came out from above, and he was about to jump out, here the little gold and little silver sisters hugged desperately, I don't know what will happen next, and listen to the next decomposition?
