Meng Ming had already arrived in Sizhou by boat, and it was already dusk at this time, so he decided to get off the boat in Sizhou and go into the city to rest, so they parked the boat on the canal wharf, leaving ten people behind.

Meng Ming and Zhang Miaoniang went to Sizhou City, and then found an inn to live in, which is also a restaurant, and the two of them asked for a first-class room.

The two settled down and went downstairs to have dinner together, Meng Ming didn't book a single room, he felt that it was quite boring for two people to eat in a single room, and it was quite wasteful.

So the two of them found a window seat in the hall and sat down, at this time the outside of the restaurant was at the beginning of the lights and the lights were dim, and the street was still full of pedestrians, a hustle and bustle, so lively.

Then the two ordered a sumptuous meal, because Zhang Miaoniang practiced martial arts, the amount of food is also large, and she also likes meat, so this table is dominated by meat dishes, such as sauced beef, roast suckling pig, salt-baked chicken and other dishes; In addition, Zhang Miaoniang asked for a drink, saying that she wanted to drink with Meng Ming.

The dishes were served very quickly, and the two of them moved their index fingers, and they immediately ate and drunk, and they drank while eating, Zhang Miaoniang actually "made a wine order".

She shouted, "Meng Lang, shall we guess the boxing?" ”

Meng Ming also knew some skills in guessing boxing, and seeing her full of interest, it was not easy to sweep her interest, so he agreed.

Let's talk about guessing boxing first, in fact, it is a boxing, boxing is generally a game for two people, at the same time stretching out a finger to indicate a number at the same time to say a number, who said the number and the number of the two people stretched out to add up to the same number, then who wins, the loser needs to drink.

The most classic of the boxing formulas is the two brothers, specifically: a little, the brothers are good, three-star photo, four happy wealth, five kui heads, six six shun, seven qiao, eight horses, drink quickly, for ingots, in order to be more catchy, the drinker adds an "ah" after each sentence.

Generally, the numbers represented are as follows: zero for fists, one for thumbs, two for eight, three for OK, four for four, and five for five.

The two began to draw fists, Zhang Miaoniang and Meng Ming both held each other's hands first, and then opened them together, and at the same time shouted "shot".

To explain: the first punch must be: If you are facing an elder, the Venerable One must say, "Respect you with all your heart" and at the same time extend your thumb to respect the opponent.

If you say "brothers are good" in the face of peers or juniors, you should also extend your thumbs up and praise each other. The first punch doesn't count, it's just a courtesy, and it goes into actual combat from the second punch.

Who knows that Zhang Miaoniang is a real master of boxing, only to see quick thinking, skillful movements, and can observe carefully, and remember clever calculations.

The two took turns to draw down, and she controlled Meng Ming's punching routine, as soon as Meng Ming's punch was stretched out, she knew that he would stretch out a few fingers in the next punch and catch Meng Ming's punch alive.

Ten numbers, ten numbers when shouting and shouting, five fingers, and five fingers when stretched around, but Zhang Miaoniang's genius lies in observing Meng Ming's path and changing her own path, she guessed you, but you can't guess her.

Meng Ming was defeated immediately, and Zhang Miaoniang's proficient and exquisite boxing skills also attracted many onlookers from drinkers.

Some drinkers saw that Meng Ming's side was too weak, and a few people on the side couldn't see it, so these people took action to "block" Meng Ming, drank the wine he lost, and then punched Zhang Miaoniang.

She was dressed as a man at this time, and she didn't care about touching and touching the palms of these people.

There is also a "pick", that is, two people challenge each other and face each other, and everyone makes a referee; Finally, the host will stop and continue to clear the customs.

These people were also defeated one after another, and finally they all went away.

At this time, in a private room of the restaurant, there were four people drinking, among which the main seat was a young man in a gorgeous costume, this person was handsome, the heavenly court was towering, the earth pavilion was round, that is, the forehead was full, the chin was round, but a pair of peach blossom eyes ruined this good face.

I saw that he was mentally exhausted, his dark circles were particularly obvious, his face was pale, his mouth was also pale, and the whole person felt like he was overindulged.

I only heard him ask a middle-aged man with an obscene face: "Jia Shihu, how is Deng Changhao's affairs going?" Can the government convict him of a capital crime? ”

That Jia Shihu replied repeatedly: "Young Master Fang, please rest assured, the evidence at the scene of the murder case in Nijiazhuang all pointed to Deng Changhao, and the human and physical evidence were there, so he was not allowed to quibble." ”

The young man surnamed Fang said impatiently: "What I want is that Deng Changhao will be convicted of death within two or three days, haven't you already found someone to report him as the leader of the bandits?" At the same time, it is good that the Deng family will be punished by Zhulian, so that my plan can be better implemented. ”

He then said to a young man with a rough face: "Lord You Zhai, please send the brothers in the village to the government to surrender, confess to the government several unsolved cases of the government, and let him identify the mastermind as Deng Changhao." ”

The owner of the You village is named You Erxi, the owner of the gangster "Canglang Village" on the water surface of Sizhou, entrenched on an island in the middle of Gaoyou Lake, with more than 100 people under his hands.

He said: "Young Master Fang, you have lost a brother in vain by doing this, which can affect my prestige in the village, so how can I serve the public in the future?" ”

The young man surnamed Fang is called Fang Liuyi, the eldest son of the Fang family of the Sizhou family, and a famous prodigal son in Sizhou City, and he is also quite treacherous and lustful, and often does the evil act of robbing and insulting people's daughters, especially the habit of robbing wives.

He said, "Lord Youzhai, I will give you two thousand yuan for the benefit, and I will also guarantee that your brother can go back with all his beards, how about it?" ”

When I saw that the owner of You Zhai heard this, he was overjoyed and hurriedly agreed.

At this time, he secretly said to himself: "This Fang Gongzi, in order to get that mother-in-law surnamed Cheng, he really spent a lot of money, but he was ruined by the willows, and he was not a yellow flower girl, and I don't know what this Fang Gongzi thought, it was a bit perverted, but I like it, otherwise where can I kill a big man." ”

Most of them were getting a little drunk as they were discussing some pickled and dirty things in the private room.

The people in the room suddenly heard the sound of fists and cheers coming from downstairs, and Fang Liuyi pushed open the window and looked down.

I saw an unusually handsome young man and people playing boxing, and I saw that his boxing skills were exquisite, and there were already six or seven people who went to challenge, but none of them were his opponents.

He looked at the young man's delicate skin, red lips and white teeth, clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, but his steps were light, his body was graceful, his body was fragrant, and his breath was like an orchid. Even women are ashamed of themselves.

He looked at him carefully, and saw that he had no Adam's apple, it turned out to be a Xibei goods, and it turned out to be a stunning woman in men's clothes.

He looked at Zhang Miaoniang's face and saw that her eyebrows were scattered, her neck was thickened, and her crotch was loose.

He also saw that Zhang Miaoniang had a different style from other young women, giving people a heroic feeling, at first glance, he was a person who practiced martial arts, and he must be a little female wild horse who was not easy to get along with, so he had the idea of hunting Yan in his heart, and he just wanted to tame her.

Fang Liuyi was a little impatient, but there was still a sense of reason, he now knew that there were more important matters to arrange, so he was not in a hurry, but he had already sent someone to keep an eye on him.

He returned to his seat and said, "Hurry up and do what I have commanded, so that I can quickly hug the beauty, and I will be rewarded after the deed." ”

At this moment, Zhang Miaoniang was also interested, and began to eat, and the onlookers also returned to their seats.

In Meng Ming's next seat, two drinkers were talking about a recent homicide.

One of the tall and thin drinkers said, "Li Ding, have you heard of the recent Ni family murder case!" ”

Another fat drinker replied: "Zhao Xiaoyi, I have heard about this for a long time, I heard that Ni Xiucai's family of six was killed, and even the six-month-old baby was not spared, it is really a sin, it is simply miserable; This murderer has also lost his conscience and has no humanity! If such murderers are caught, they will have to be executed and their bodies will be broken into thousands of pieces. ”

When I saw that Li Ding, he whispered: "I have a wife and nephew who is on an errand in the yamen of the state capital, and I heard that now the governor of Sizhou has gone to work, and the new governor has not yet arrived, and now Jia Zhenyi is sentenced to take charge of this case; I heard that the murderer has been arrested by the yamen of the state capital, and he is now on death row, and he will be beheaded in a few days. ”

In the end, Li Ding also said in a low voice mysteriously: "Brother Xiaoyi, do you know who the murderer is?" ”

Zhao Xiaoyi asked curiously: "Brother, don't hang people's appetites, tell me who it is?!" ”

Li Ding lowered his body and whispered: "I heard that it was his classmate and friend Deng Changhao, and the result of the interrogation of the state government was that Deng Changhao wanted to make money and killed him; And there's an explosive inside story. ”

He didn't say anything after he finished speaking, and then he ate food and drank wine, seemingly wanting to tease Zhao Xiaoyi.

At this time, Zhao Xiaoyi is like a bookkeeper, as if he was told that after hearing the storyteller talk about the highlights, he was told "If you want to know the future, you will explain it in detail next time." "It's like an itch in my heart.

At this time, he was so anxious that he scratched his ears and fidgeted, so he hurriedly asked Li Ding: "Brother, why are you so unhappy, you still say something halfway, which makes people annoyed, you can say it quickly." ”

Li Ding looked around, and then pretended to whisper mysteriously: "Then Deng Changhao is suspected to be a bandit leader, and all the assets of his family have been secretly plundered, and now the government is raiding his home." ”

Zhao Xiaoyi said in surprise at this time: "I have seen Deng Changhao, he is a weak scholar, and he is kind and charitable, and he is very virtuous; Is it that the government made a mistake, or deliberately framed it, and it was tortured into a trick. ”

Li Ding was shocked when he heard this, he suddenly got up and sealed Zhao Xiaoyi's mouth with his hand, and then stared at him angrily, as if he was going to eat him.

He reprimanded in a low voice: "Brother Xiaoyi, you can't talk nonsense, you dare to question the government, be careful" Trouble enters from the mouth and ignites the fire. "Don't bother me."

Zhao Xiaoyi had an epiphany at this time, he apologized to Li Ding repeatedly, and then felt a little afraid, and then looked around with palpitations, and saw that there was no abnormality, so he put his mind at ease.

But the content of their conversation was listened to word by word by Zhang Miaoniang, and she had an inexplicable intuition in her heart, as if there was a voice telling her that there was another hidden story in this case, that Deng Changhaoke

To be able is to be wronged.

She was born in the rivers and lakes, and often put the phrase "when the road is uneven, draw a sword to help", and use it as a motto for chivalry.
