Chapter 17: His Name Is Downing!

Tang Ning didn't know what was going on in other places, and the law and order in Yong'an County, which was under his father-in-law's jurisdiction, was not very good.

He had only been here for less than a month, and he had encountered a murder case, and there were many small cases of theft and robbery.

Just now, while they were wandering the streets, this catcher named Peng Chen also subdued a thief who was stealing.

There is one more thing that Tangning has never forgotten.

A month ago, it should have been after the death of the original owner of this body that he had a chance to occupy this body.

This is not a rebirth, but a rebirth in another sense.

Tang Ning also wondered if in another world, this unknown scholar who unfortunately died, maybe like him, lived in a certain place full of doubts and surprises.

Of course, he has nowhere to verify this.

He had asked the beggars that early that morning, several masked men dragged the original owner of the body into the alley and beat him, and that he must have died at that time.

Tang Yaoyao smashed him with a hydrangea wrapped in a stone, smashed out a safe place for him, smashed out a talented wife, and smashed out a county father-in-law, he had to be grateful to Tang Yaoyao.

Thinking about it another way, if it weren't for those people, his soul might not know where to wander, and there would be no Downing now.

He was grateful to Tang Yaoyao, but he was not grateful to those people.

Maybe it's because Tang Yaoyao has longer legs than them, and he likes long legs.

He is not a person who does not repay his kindness, and since he has inherited the kindness of this unknown scholar, he naturally wants to do something for him.

Moreover, he didn't know the identities of those people, nor did he know their purpose, so he had to be careful about his own safety.

Tang Ning hid these thoughts deep in his heart, turned around and asked Peng Chen, "Have you ever practiced martial arts?" ”

When he saw the other party subduing the thief just now, his movements were smooth, simple and simple, and he looked like he had kung fu in his body.

Peng Chen just nodded, cherishing words like gold.

Tang Ning thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "Who is more powerful, you or Tang Yaoyao?" ”

Tang Fairy said that her martial arts are world-famous and dominate the rivers and lakes, Tang Ning naturally didn't believe it, but he was very curious, how high can the martial arts in this world be?

Peng Chen's face was calm and said, "I haven't been beaten." ”

Tang Ning could see from his expression that the Tang Woman, who was famous for her martial arts, must not have been taken seriously by this little catcher.

A little catcher can ignore her, so it can be seen that Tang Yaoyao is just a bit of a three-legged cat......

Before they knew it, the two had walked to the alley where Tang Ning woke up that day.

In the corner, an old beggar leaned against the wall, and several children gathered around him.

The old beggar held a few broken thin books in his hand, shook them in front of the eyes of several children, and said: "I see that you are all unique martial arts wizards, I have a few secret books here, you can get through the second pulse of Ren Du with a little practice, and become a rare peerless master in the world, this kind of good thing, I will sell it to you for ten cents, how about it?" ”

Of course, Tang Ning now knows that this old beggar is an old liar, and he made him embarrassed at Qing'er last time, and even Zhongyi reminded him several times in those days, telling him not to think nonsense, not to always think about what Immortal Mountain......

His gaze swept over the old beggar and he walked into the alley.

When the beggars in the alley saw him come in, they immediately came to their senses.

"Childe, you're here again......"

"Come here, everyone!"

Several beggars got up from the ground and immediately gathered around.

Tang Ning gave them a few steamed buns wrapped in lotus leaves and asked, "How is it, is there any news?" ”

Several beggars took the steamed buns, and one of the leaders smiled and said, "Childe, these days, I have been asking people to inquire, and as soon as there is news about the little beggar, I will notify you immediately!" ”

The little beggar still had no news, Tang Ning was used to it, and he was not in a hurry, and asked again, "What about those people?" ”

The beggar showed a look of embarrassment on his face and said, "Childe, they all had black cloth on their faces that day, and even if they appeared in front of us, we wouldn't recognize them......"

Peng Chen had been standing behind Tang Ning, looking at him who was quite familiar with these beggars, a trace of doubt appeared on his face, and he quickly regained his composure.

Tang Ning sighed lightly as he walked out of the alley.

Although he had asked the catchers in the yamen to pay more attention, these beggars were more familiar with Lingzhou City and could play a greater role, but there was no news these days, and the little beggar must have left Lingzhou City.

He stood at the mouth of the alley, and the sound of angry scolding reached his ears.

"Old thing, you're cheating children out of their money again!"

"Shameless, why didn't God drop a thunderbolt to kill you!"

"Next time you dare to lie to my child, Lao Tzu will break your legs!"

……

After punching and kicking the old beggar in the corner, several men pulled their children and walked away.

The old beggar patted the footprints on his body, picked up the booklets, shook his head and said, "I don't know the goods, I don't know the goods......"

He stood up against the wall and saw a young man standing at the entrance of the alley.

The young man was looking at him.

He thought for a while, took a few steps forward, and said: "Little brother, I see that your bones are amazing, you are a martial arts wizard in the thousands, I have a few martial arts cheats here, and I will sell you one of the ten texts......"

Tang Ning just bought steamed buns and had a piece of broken silver left, threw it to him casually, and said, "Take it and buy something to eat, don't lie to children in the future......"

The old beggar took the broken silver, shook his head and said, "Hey, you are willing to do business, how can it be called cheating......

Tang Ning didn't have time to fight with him here, shook his head, and turned to leave.

"Wait a minute!"

The old beggar stopped him from behind.

Tang Ning turned around, and the old beggar handed over a few thin books in his hand, and said, "I forgot your things, but you spent money to buy them." ”

Unexpectedly, this old beggar still has principles, and unlike ordinary charlatans, Tang Ning took the book casually and said, "Okay." ”

At this time, the old beggar looked at him and said in surprise: "How do I think you are a little familiar......

Tang Ning's heart moved, looked at him and asked, "You know me?" ”

The old beggar thought for a while, and suddenly a trace of surprise appeared on his face, and he said in disbelief: "You, aren't you dead!" ”

Tang Ning's heart jumped suddenly, and he forced himself to calm down: "What did you say?" ”

"It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense......" The old beggar muttered to himself, shaking his head in confusion.

Tang Ning thought for a while, looked at him and said, "Old man, a few days ago, the junior was injured and forgot a lot of things, if you know anything, please tell me......"

The old man was surprised: "Amnesia? ”

Tangning nodded.

The old man asked again, "Do you remember that morning when you were beaten?" ”

Tangning shook his head.

The old man thought for a moment and asked, "Do you remember who you are?" ”

Downing continued to shake his head.

"Then you forgot about the one hundred taels of silver you owe me?"

“……”

The old man thought for a moment, then suddenly grabbed his arm and said, "Have you forgotten, I am your uncle, your parents died when you were a child, and I pulled you to grow up......"

……

Tang Ning was holding a few books in his hand, and when he was eating last night, he found that the table was a little shaky, and these broken books should be just right for the corners of the table.

He didn't get anything useful out of the old beggar's mouth, and the old beggar only happened to see the men leave the alley that morning, so he was shocked at the fact that he had come to life.

He suppressed these thoughts, looked at Peng Chen, and asked, "Yi'an County Ya, do you have anyone you are familiar with?" ”

In Lingzhou City, it is divided into two jurisdictions, Yong'an County Ya and Yi'an County Ya occupy one side each, that is to say, in Lingzhou City, there is half of the place, and his father-in-law's hand cannot reach.

If you can use the power of the two officials, it will be easier to find the little beggar again.

Peng Chen shook his head and said, "Lord Zhong and Yi'an County Ling had grievances in the early years, and there was no contact except for small frictions over the years. ”

Tang Ning dispelled this thought for the time being, sighed, and said, "Let's go back first." ”

Nghe An County Ya.

A servant waved his hand to the woman standing at the door of the yamen, with a hairpin skirt, and said impatiently: "How many times have you said it, if you don't have it, you have to look elsewhere for ......."

The woman was dressed in a cloth skirt with a few patches at the corners of the skirt, and her face was extremely haggard.

She looked at the servant with a slightly pale face, and whispered: "My lord, when is there any news of him, please tell me, I, I will come back tomorrow......"

The official looked at her appearance, and a little unbearable rose in his heart, and said: "Okay, okay, what is his name, you say it again, I will tell you when there is news." ”

"Thank you, my lord, thank you, my lord......" A hint of joy appeared on the woman's face, and she hurriedly said: "His name is Tang Ning, Tang of Tang poetry, and Ning ...... of tranquility."
