Chapter Ninety-Seven
The sun is setting in the west, and there is no one in the vast wilderness. Only an uponted carriage on the pipeline was galloping.
Huang Zhutou looked at Wen Ziqi who was sitting with his eyes closed worriedly, and almost opened his mouth to ask, but he was frightened of his good dreams. He opened the side curtain and looked out of the car.
There is a way of mood that is the artistic conception, if he doesn't have so many troubles at this time, I'm afraid that the scenery in front of him can also be called beautiful. But now he was distraught, and looked at the desolate wilderness, only to let out a long sigh.
"Huang Zhutou's long sigh seems to have a thousand sorrows."
"Brother Wen, it turns out that you are not asleep." When Huang Zhutou heard this, he hurriedly put down the curtain in his hand, turned his head to look at Wen Ziqi, and said, "It's really a bit troublesome Brother Wen these days, so I saw that your eyes were slightly closed, thinking that you were resting." ”
"Where is this," Wen Ziqi said with a faint smile: "Being able to be appreciated by Huang Zhutou and doing a little bit of effort is also my creation." ”
"Ah, hahaha, Brother Wen, you are so polite," Huang Zhutou was stunned when he heard this, and hurriedly snorted and said: "With your relationship with Lord Qin, I Huang can't even climb high, how dare I say it's appreciation." ”
Wen Ziqi smiled lightly, shook his head slightly, and said: "I heard Huang Zhutou's long sigh just now, there must be something boring, you might as well say it and see if I can help you solve your problems." ”
"Regarding the doubts in the case, Huang should ask for advice one by one," Huang Zhutou laughed helplessly and said: "If Huang is a certain person's daily trivial matter and then uses it to trouble Brother Wen, wouldn't it be too much trouble for you." ”
Wen Ziqi looked at him softly and said: "Look at what you said, the road is far away and the road is dull, you feel much more comfortable in your heart when you say it, and you can investigate the case without distraction when you arrive in Yizhuang." This is a good thing for both public and private purposes. ”
"That's right," Huang Zhutou nodded slightly, and said with a long breath: "Since Brother Wen doesn't think the old brother is broken, then you might as well listen to my bitter stomach?" ”
Wen Ziqi's eyebrows were like a spring breeze, and he said with a smile: "There is a way that bitterness comes when all the bitterness comes and all the bitter water is poured out, so that there is a place for joy, isn't it?" ”
Huang Zhutou heard this, and stretched out his thumb to praise: "I didn't see that Brother Wen has such insight at such a young age!"
"Where, Huang Zhutou is holding me again," Wen Ziqi hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "I don't know why Huang Zhutou is so upset?" ”
I saw Huang Zhutou's eyes wrinkled, with a resolute expression, and said: "That's it, I don't treat Brother Wen as an outsider, here's the thing, I am a native of the local, my family is not rich, but I am not hungry." I had a cousin when I was young, and the relationship between the two was very good, isn't there a sentence to describe our relationship, I forgot to call Lang or something at this time. ”
Seeing that he was speechless, Wen Ziqi reminded with a smile: "Huang Zhutou wants to say that Lang came on a bamboo horse and went around the bed to make green plums?" ”
"Yes, yes, yes," Huang Zhutou smiled, and then said: "That's it, the parents of both sides originally agreed that when they became adults, they would let the two of them worship heaven and earth together and spend their lives together, but ....." At this time, I saw him shake his head slightly and sigh silently.
"But creation makes people?" Wen Ziqi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said lightly: "Separated the two of you, failed to tie the knot." ”
Huang Zhutou smiled miserably and said: "Tying the knot is simply wishful thinking." As he spoke, his face changed suddenly, and he said coldly: "When I was a teenager, I also had a heroic dream of doing chivalry and righteousness, and I won the name of a chivalrous person. So I said goodbye to my parents and went to visit the famous teacher, but the heavens did not fulfill my wish. ”
"Is it so easy to find a famous teacher, is it not a disappointment again?" Wen Ziqi sighed and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth.
"It's not just a disappointment," Huang Zhutou leaned back against the carport, a slight smile on his face, and said: "When I return home after a few years, I have long been different. In the past, she had no guesses, and she had put on a wedding dress and became someone else's bride, and even the high hall in her family has become ancient. Am I calling this nothing? I saw that his eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at Wen Ziqi with a sad face.
"The world is impermanent, and some things are always unexpected," Wen Zi closed his eyes and muttered as if he felt something: "One thought of heaven, one thought of hell, and many things in the world are like this." ”
Huang Zhutou was stunned when he heard this, looked at Wen Ziqi with a puzzled expression and said: "Brother Wen is young, and it is really a bit unbelievable for me to say such a verse. ”
"Huang Zhutou, you're making fun of me again," Wen Ziqi said with his eyes slightly closed and looked lazy and tired.
Seeing that he was silent, Huang Zhutou stopped talking to disturb him, and sat quietly alongside, as if he was also thinking about something. The carriage swayed slowly, and the shoulders of the two men touched each other slightly.
After a long time, Wen Ziqi saw that he was no longer talking, so he opened his eyes, looked at Huang Zhutou with a puzzled expression, and said, "Huang Zhutou, you didn't understand what I meant. ”
"Of course I understand," Huang Zhutou said with an interesting glint in his eyes, "Do you want to say that since you can't be together, you can only silently bless and protect." I'll tell you the truth, that's what I did. As in the moment, I didn't tell her. ”
Wen Ziqi was stunned when he heard this, his eyes were dark, and he asked suspiciously, "What is the matter now?" What do you mean? ”
"The case of the corpse of Yuelai Restaurant," Huang Zhutou said expressionlessly, "The deceased is her husband." ”
"What do you mean?" Wen Ziqi was stunned when he heard this, looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Do you know this deceased?" ”
"Don't you know," Huang Zhutou smiled coldly, and his words were like poisonous knives, "How many times have I wanted to kill him with my own hands, even in my sleep." But when I found out that it was him, I didn't have a trace of joy, but a real sadness. ”
Wen Ziqi silently looked at Huang Zhutou with a sad face, and after a long time, he spoke: "Is it because of your cousin?" ”
With the bump of the carriage, the tears hidden in Huang Zhutou's eyes burst out of his eyes, and when he saw him raise his hand to wipe away the tears, he said with a smile: "At our age, I am afraid that the pursuit of happiness is no longer suitable." So when I think about the rest of her life, I feel a little... Brother Wen smiled. ”
Wen Ziqi shook his head and said, "Although many years have passed, you are still concerned about her safety. This kind of affectionate and sexual feelings, Wen can't admire it, how can he make fun of it. ”
Huang Zhutou took a long breath, calmed down a little, and then said, "So I didn't tell her the truth. ”
"She's already looking for you?" Wen Ziqi looked up and asked.
"Well, she asked me to meet at noon yesterday," Huang Zhutou thought for a while and said, "But I didn't come mainly for this matter, but I just asked casually." ”
"You didn't tell her!" Wen Ziqi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked like he had already expected it.
"Yes, I pretended not to know, and found an excuse to cover up the past." Huang Zhutou nodded, hesitated for a moment and said, "However, according to my cousin, the deceased once said that he would go to the prefect's house for a banquet before his death, and he has not been heard from again. ”
Wen Ziqi thought for a while, and Zhengse said: "There was no news after going to the banquet, or no news after going out, I think you had better ask about this." ”
Huang Zhutou nodded and said, "Today I have sent someone to inquire along the way, and there should be an answer as soon as tomorrow." ”
Wen Ziqi thought for a while and asked, "What day is the prefect's birthday banquet?" ”
"Geng Wuri, I remember it very clearly." Huang Zhutou didn't think about it and said.
Wen Ziqi frowned, crossed his fingers and said: "The body was found in Xinweiri, although it was boiled and soaked, and the specific time cannot be determined, but it is certain that on Geng Wuday, the deceased told your cousin at home that he was going to attend the prefect's birthday banquet." On the day of Xinwei, Yuelai Restaurant found the stump of the deceased. Yesterday, on Renshen Day, your cousin came to you to report the case, saying that there was no one for two or three days, is the timeline right? ”
Huang Zhutou thought for a while, then nodded and said, "That's true, what does Brother Wen mean?" ”
Wen Ziqi nodded and said, "I think we should find out where he went and met someone after he went out." Did you go to the banquet, if you went to the banquet with whom, did you have any quarrels? In the end, when did they leave the birthday banquet? ”
"Brother Wen is really in one sentence, straight to the key, admire and admire." Huang Zhutou hurriedly apologized and said with a solemn expression.
Wen Ziqi hurriedly waved his hand and said disapprovingly: "The details of this, if Huang Zhutou calms down and thinks about it, there is no difficulty, but you are concerned about it now, and you are panicked." ”
Huang Zhutou snorted a haha, and he didn't deny it, just nodded his head. Seeing that the case became clear, his mood naturally improved, and he smiled slightly: "Red face and trouble, it's really not wrong at all, when I think of things about women in my mind, my brain is no longer called brain, but paste." ”
Wen Ziqi was stunned when he heard this, a meaningful smile appeared on his lips, and he said softly: "Although we have only been together for a few days, I found that Huang Zhutou has a very interesting place. ”
Huang Zhutou's eyes flashed with interest, and he said with a smile: "What is it? ”
Wen Ziqi thought for a moment and asked with a smile, "When we came out of the Water Pavilion just now, did you notice that Lord Qin was a little displeased?" ”
Huang Zhutou didn't think about it and said, "How could you not find out." ”
"Do you know what the yellow catcher is for?" Wen Ziqi asked mysteriously.
Huang Zhutou said disapprerovingly: "What's so hard to guess about this, isn't it just that I was quick to talk and expose his identity!" ”
Wen Ziqi shook his head and looked at him with a smile.
"What? Isn't it? Huang Zhutou stared at Wen Ziqi with a pair of eyes and looked at Wen Ziqi in confusion.
"Of course not," Wen Ziqi shook his head helplessly, and said lightly: "She's angry because you think you're smart!" ”
