Chapter 57: Murder with a knife
In the evening, when Chen Xiaoting had fallen asleep, he was awakened by a knock on the door outside.
It was Chen Xiaolin who got up and opened the door, because the room he was in was closest to the courtyard door, so Chen Xiaoting could still lie comfortably on the bed.
But before he fell asleep, he heard Chen Xiaolin knock on his door and said, "Big brother, I'm looking for you!" ”
Chen Xiaoting was suspicious in his heart and asked, "Who is looking for me?" ”
Chen Xiaolin replied: "I don't know, but he said that he has something important to look for you, and he seems to be in a hurry!" ”
In desperation, Chen Xiaoting had to get up, but he couldn't think of anyone else coming to him at this time.
After lighting the lamp and getting dressed, Chen Xiaoting took the lamp out of the room, and saw Chen Xiaolin standing in the courtyard with the lamp, and a cowering figure standing next to him.
Before Chen Xiaoting could see who this person was, he saw him step forward and said, "Captain Chen, it's me...... Highly useful! ”
"Gao Yong......" Chen Xiaoting read it again, and after seeing the other party's face clearly, he remembered who Gao Yong was.
Chen Xiaoting said: "It's so late, what are you looking for me?" ”
Gao Yong was very excited at this time, so he said: "My lord, something big is going to happen......"
Subsequently, Gao Yong told him what happened tonight, and Chen Xiaoting's absence also changed from Shu to Shu.
"Zhang Wu said that he would do it later?" Chen Xiaoting asked.
Gao Yong nodded, and then said: "I listened to him with my own ears, and the day of flying yellow and prosperous tomorrow night will come!" ”
Chen Xiaoting was really shocked, it turned out that rabbits would really bite when they were in a hurry, Xie Ping and they actually dared to do black things to themselves, and the Nine Clans couldn't scare them.
But Chen Xiaoting thought about it, as long as Xie Ping and others operated properly, they would gain a lot after killing people seamlessly.
Seeing that Chen Xiaoting didn't react, Gao Yong hurriedly said: "My lord, the people of the White Lotus Sect are in the Fang City warehouse, you can take someone to arrest them now!" ”
Gao Yong's suggestion is indeed feasible, but Chen Xiaoting is not ready to deal with it so briefly, he wants to calculate it.
So he took out five taels of silver from his bosom, and said, "This is your reward, what should you do when you go back, forget what happened tonight!" ”
As soon as he saw five taels of silver, Gao Yong immediately smiled, and secretly said that Chen Xiaoting was really wealthy, much more generous than Zhang Wu's.
"Yes, yes, the villain will go back, don't disturb you!" After Gao Yong saluted repeatedly, he left in a hurry.
After he walked away, Chen Xiaolin, who was standing on the side, said, "Big brother, do you want me to call someone to help you catch the rebel thief of the White Lotus Sect?" ”
Chen Xiaoting stretched his waist, and then said, "You don't have to worry about this, just rest...... I've got my own way to clean them up! ”
Seeing that his eldest brother was not in a hurry, Chen Xiaolin didn't say much, and went back to the room to rest after closing the courtyard door.
"Five taels of silver bought this news, it's really a good deal!" Chen Xiaoting laughed.
Five taels of silver is enough for a family of five for half a year, which is a hundred times the reward given by Zhang Wu, no wonder Gao Yong is so happy.
…………
On July 26, the weather was still as hot as usual.
As the sun set, the temperature in the city dropped a little after a day of heatwaves.
At this time, the business of the restaurant is better, and the men who have been busy all day have only a little fun here.
Invite three or five friends to sit in the restaurant, order three or five side dishes, and chat with a pot of wine.
Therefore, no matter in that world, catering is one of the most prosperous industries, which is Chen Xiaoting's emotion at this time.
He is now in a restaurant box on White Water Street, drinking alone, and waiting for someone at the same time.
and those who come to kill him, and those who are slain for him.
Opposite the restaurant is a tea house, which is relatively quiet and quiet, and it is a good place to talk about business.
The tea house has fewer customers, and it is more suitable for killers to kill, which is the murder scene selected by Chen Xiaoting.
After Gao used to tell the whistle last night, he brought even more exciting news the next morning.
In order to get himself out, Zhang Wu asked Gao Yong and the two to be responsible for delivering the news, which was simply to serve as a guide for the killers of the White Lotus Sect.
Originally, Chen Xiaoting still wanted to set up an ambush and capture the killers of the White Lotus Sect alive, and then sit down to collude with the White Lotus Sect's crimes.
But with such a situation, Chen Xiaoting changed his mind.
The people of Sancai want to borrow a knife to kill people, and after having these two internal responses, Chen Xiaoting also wants to borrow this knife to kill people.
So things were simple, Chen Xiaoting instructed Gao Yong to contact the killer of the White Lotus Sect and ask him to take people to the opposite tea house.
And the most critical operation is that Chen Xiaoting asked Wang Sanxiang to go to Wang Youtian and invite him to drink tea and talk about things in the name of Xie Ping.
Hearing this, everyone understood that Chen Xiaoting was going to kill Wang Youtian with a knife.
At this moment, a voice came from the door of a box: "Boy, it's all this time, do you still have the time to invite me to drink?"
This voice Chen Xiaoting was very familiar, and he got up to greet him: "Lord Zongqi, no matter how difficult life is, you can't delay the matter of drinking!"
While watching the play in the restaurant, Chen Xiaoting also invited Zhang Zhenshan over, in order to testify to himself that Wang Youtian's death had nothing to do with him.
So, while getting up to greet him, Chen Xiaoting also said sorry to Zhang Zhenshan in his heart.
On weekdays, Zhang Zhenshan doesn't have much to do, and his subordinates do everything, so he has a lot of free time, and Chen Xiaoting invited him to come.
But this is also because Chen Xiaoting's face is big enough, and other captains don't have this ability, and they can invite the chief flag officer to drink at any time.
After the two sat down, they chatted a few words and drank, but what puzzled Chen Xiaoting was that Zhang Zhenshan didn't ask about him and Sancai.
So Chen Xiaoting took the initiative to ask: "My lord, I made such a big disturbance in Xicheng, why can't there be an explanation in the yamen!" ”
Zhang Zhenshan ate the dishes and said casually: "Who knows, I don't know!" ”
This obviously didn't want to answer this question, and Chen Xiaoting didn't force him to ask, as long as no one interfered with him.
"My lord, when you left Luyang City, Lord Qianhu didn't say anything to you?" Chen Xiaoting asked again.
Zhang Zhenshan glanced at him and said, "Don't you want Lord Qianhu to bring you a message?" ”
He just said it casually, but who knew that Chen Xiaoting really thought so.
"Boy, I don't care how you make a fuss, but you have to think about how to end up in the future, once you lose, you'll be finished!" Zhang Zhenshan said solemnly.
He was very optimistic about Chen Xiaoting and didn't want him to die early, but Zhou Wenzhu didn't let him meddle in this matter, and Zhang Zhenshan could only warn him verbally.
Chen Xiaoting nodded, and then said, "My lord, my subordinates know it!" ”
Zhang Zhenshan said: "That's good, don't let us down......"
Before Chen Xiaoting could figure out who else was in the "we" in Zhang Zhenshan's pass, he heard the noise from the tea house opposite, accompanied by the screams of someone.
The two of them put down their glasses at the same time, and then looked through the window across the street from me, and fled in panic when someone in the tea house fled.
These people were full of panic and shouted as they ran: "Kill, kill......"
Killed...... Hearing these three words, Zhang Zhenshan Huo Ran got up, and then said to Chen Xiaoting: "Let's go, go and see!" ”
At the moment, both of them are wearing civilian clothes, so they can be ignored completely, but Zhang Zhenshan still chose to go to the scene to have a look.
Anyway, Chen Xiaoting still admired this person's professionalism, and then he also followed Zhang Zhenshan downstairs.
But unlike Zhang Zhenshan, Chen Xiaoting went to see if it was Wang Youtian and confirmed whether Wang Youtian was dead!
