Chapter 64 Survival is not survival

Then Zheng Sheng thought again, what is the purpose of their drunken incense house? Want to get revenge on him? Or is there a reason he doesn't know?

Although it was nearly midnight, Zheng Sheng was not sleepy, but he didn't have to get involved in the search. Fang Qi rushed to the west of the city with the county soldiers.

Zheng Sheng was wondering where he would settle down tonight. Drunken Xiangju is gone, so you can't go to his house, right?

Zheng Sheng turned his head and asked Ren Ju: "Where did Wang Xiang go?" He suddenly remembered that Wang Xiang did not appear in Zuixiangju, and his cousin seemed to have disappeared again!

"At the end of the day, Wang Xiang went out to the young master. It was said that Shiliang Gongzi planned to leave Shunyang early tomorrow morning, and he set up a farewell banquet in Qingmeiju, and Wang Xiang received an invitation to the young master to go to the banquet! ”

Only then did Zheng Sheng know that Shi Liang had invited Wang Xiang again, but he had not invited him. So he asked the affirmation, "Have you been invited?" ”

Shen Ming nodded, "At that time, I was in the drunken fragrance house, and the invitation was received by my family, but I missed the time. So I didn't go. ”

"The banquet is still in Qing Meiju, right?" Zheng Sheng thought for a while, "Wang Xiang went to the banquet before the time, and he hasn't come back yet?" They're probably talking again. Shi Liang will definitely invite Liu Yang as well. At that time, the Liu family shouldn't have thought about running yet, right? Liu Yang attended the banquet, and it was impossible for Liu Yu not to bring his son if he wanted to run in the evening. Therefore, Liu Yang will probably leave in the middle of the banquet. ”

"Master Guo, I'll go to Qingmeiju to have a look." Zheng Sheng said to Guo Yi, and he was also worried that the Liu family would be unfavorable to Wang Xiang.

Guo Yi nodded, "It's okay, but Qingmeiju is the Liu family's industry, and Zheng Shizi has to be very careful in the past!" ”

"Qing Meiju belongs to the Liu family? Isn't the owner of Qing Meiju called Tian Sa? Zheng Sheng was stunned.

"Tian Sa is Liu Yu's person."

Zheng Sheng nodded, it turned out to be like this, no wonder Liu Yang was able to charter Qing Meiju, and said that those dishes were made by his own chef - Zheng Sheng thought that Song Yiji had taught the Liu family chef his recipe. Now it seems that those dishes are made by him at all.

The Liu family and Qing Meiju were not far apart, and Zheng Sheng soon arrived at Qing Meiju, and he found that Qing Meiju had closed.

However, it was already midnight, and it was normal for the restaurant to close, but Ren Zhi and Shen Ming still ordered everyone to surround him and protect him.

Ren went up and knocked on the door.

"Who? It's so late, it's closed. Come back tomorrow! Someone inside the door said.

"I am from the Danyin Marquis Mansion, and the king of my family, the young master of the cousin, came to Qingmeiju for a banquet and has not returned. So, let me ask about the situation. Ren explained through the door.

"Young Master Wang? Oh, it's someone from the Marquis of Danyin's Mansion. While opening the door, the doorman spoke with half-open and confused eyes: "Shiliang Gongzi is very happy when they talk about Hai. Young Master Wang Xiang and the other guests rested in the ...... Qing Mercure. You guys, why are there so many of you! ”

The guy was taken aback, he subconsciously retracted, and let the family next to him grab him.

"Help! Woe to you! He began to shout. The family took the opportunity to give him a look.

The guy suddenly became honest, he saw Zheng Sheng coming over through the faint light of the torch, and felt that the world was different, "Zheng Xiaoshizi, you?" "You're a thief too?

"You Qingmeiju people really have big hearts." Zheng Sheng looked at him, "Shunyang City is so lively tonight that it is almost overturned, you can still sleep peacefully." ”

He didn't understand what Zheng Sheng meant by what he said.

"Take me to see Shiliang Gongzi."

"Shiliang Gongzi has already slept." He whispered.

"Is your young master here?"

"Not there."

"When did he leave?"

The man stopped talking.

"I don't have any grudges with your young master, is his whereabouts a secret?" Zheng Sheng asked.

He seemed to remember something, but he still said: "Although I am only a doorman, I will not say anything about the affairs of the main family. ”

Zheng Sheng nodded, looking at this man with short limbs and probably no more than twenty years old, "What's your name?" ”

"My name is Gu Ming."

Zheng Sheng nodded and walked into Qing Meiju. Qing Meiju has not returned to its usual appearance, Shiliang has a banquet tonight, and it is impossible for the restaurant to open normally. These guys have probably been busy taking care of Shi Liang and them, so they don't know what's going on outside.

"Then you can tell me where my cousin is, right?"

Gu Ming said in a low voice, "Please come with me." ”

Zheng Sheng, escorted by everyone, went upstairs and arrived at the guest room of Qing Meiju. Gu Ming said: "This is here, Young Master Wang Xiang has already slept. ”

Zheng Sheng listened to the snoring sound coming from the room, and he still pushed the door and walked in!

Then, he quickly retreated and walked downstairs in embarrassment.

Mother, what did he see! Two big men sleep in the same bed!

Do you have a base? Zheng Sheng's heart was in a mess, and when he thought of Wang Xiangtian calling him affectionately "Little Brother Sheng, Little Brother Sheng" every day, goosebumps suddenly appeared all over his body!

Be sure to stay away from this guy in the future!

Although, at this time, the friendship between men is very pure, and it is normal to fall asleep when it is deep enough to reach a certain level. Liu Guanzhang fell asleep, and Liu Bei also slept with Zhuge Liang. Zhou Yu and Lu Su and others have also had this kind of experience.

But Zheng Sheng, who is one of the five good young people in the 21st century, resolutely resists this trend!

Zheng Sheng went downstairs, although he saw an extremely disgusting scene, but after making sure that Wang Xiang was fine, he didn't have to worry about not being able to explain to Mrs. Wang.

Seeing the family staring at the Qingmeiju guys squatting in the corner, they were probably caught out of the bed by the family members.

Zheng Sheng continued to ask Gu Ming, "Is Tian Sa here?" ”

Gu Ming shook his head, "Master Tian is not here. ”

"Walked with Liu Yang?"

"Yes." Gu Ming said in a low voice.

"And who of you can take care of things now?"

Gu Ming thought for a while, "Master Tian took Tian Xiantian and the fifth feather away. The one who can still take care of things is Song Yuding, right? ”

"It's all gone." Zheng Sheng sighed that Liu Yu and Li Cheng's actions were really fast and meticulous, as if they had been rehearsed in advance. This is not like a hasty evacuation after the flaw was discovered, but rather a premeditated action.

Maybe Liu Yu really planned to go. Just because of this accident, the plan was brought forward? Zheng Sheng thought of a possibility.

Zheng Sheng glanced at Song Yiji, who had been keeping his head down, and breathed a sigh of relief, "You still have a place to live here, right?" Arrange it for me! ”

He turned to Ren and said, "Are they still drunk now?" Let them come here and rest too. ”

Ren nodded and ordered the two family members to go.

"Let's go down and rest too, it's too late." Zheng Sheng finally commanded.

Gu Ming took Zheng Sheng upstairs again and arrived at a clean guest room.

Gu Ming opened his mouth, but walked out in silence. Zheng Sheng was so tired that he didn't notice his abnormality and buried his head in sleep.

When Zheng Sheng woke up, he felt extremely uncomfortable in his throat. The person outside the door seemed to have been waiting for a long time, and when he heard the movement, he pushed the door and came in, "Shizi, you are awake." ”

"Nothing happened out there, did it?" Zheng Sheng asked while washing his face.

"Last night, after we left, there were archers who attacked Zuixiangju. Sniff was hit by an arrow. ”

Zheng Sheng felt that this group of people was dizzy, burning his house, hurting his people, he provoked them? They're playing with fire!

Zheng Sheng was full of anger, he took a deep breath, "How is she?" ”

"The arrow is poisonous, it is the poison of aconitum sinensis. I have seen a doctor, but fortunately, the toxicity is not strong and there is no major problem. ”

"What about the thieves who sneaked up?"

"Ran away." Ren Ji looked ashamed.

Zheng Sheng sat down again, "What about Master Guo, is there any news?" ”

"This morning, Guo Zhubo sent someone to find Shizi, saying that he had found a dark room and a secret passage in the hidden corner of the burning house in the west of the city. Someone has been sent down to find out that the secret passage leads to a mountain road outside the city, and there are a large number of new car traces on the mountain road. Fang Du had already led people to chase after him. ”

"Anything else?"

Ren Zhi's voice lowered a little lower, "Master Guo asked me to tell you that there is a big problem in Shunyang County. ”

"What? Didn't the thieves set fire to the grain yesterday? "Zheng Sheng is very strange, this is not a big problem?

"The granary is strictly fire-resistant, and Geng Zhongchun, the follower who patrolled the night last night, arrived in time, and the granary fire did not burn much grain." Ren Ju showed a strange look on his face, "The person who came said that after Geng Zhongchun put out the fire, when he inspected the granary, he found that most of the granary was empty. ”

"Shunyang County stores the county's emergency grain of ten thousand stones, but now most of the grain in the county warehouse is gone."

"It should be Liu Yu who stole the grain from the warehouse. Gao Chen, the warehouse official who was responsible for taking care of the county warehouse on weekdays, was also nowhere to be seen. should also be Liu Yu's comrade. ”

Zheng Sheng somewhat understood why Liu Yu burned the granary. He stole 10,000 stone of grain stored in the county warehouse.

Tens of thousands of stones, that is hundreds of thousands of catties of grain, worth millions of dollars! Zheng Sheng thought to himself that the king of Shunyang was coming soon, and his family's grain had been stolen completely, so could he spare these officials in Shunyang?

Perhaps, catching Liu Yu and recovering the money and food can alleviate the guilt?

There was nothing he could do now, and Zheng Sheng could only wait for the results of Fang Qi's pursuit.

Zheng Sheng went to visit Liu Wei'er.

The little girl's face turned pale, staring at the top of the bed in a daze. Hearing the movement, she turned her head to look at it and did not speak.

"Are you alright?" Zheng Sheng asked. He knew that this kind of aconitum poison was a very powerful poison, and Guan Erye scraped his bones to heal his injuries because he was poisoned by aconitum poison. This is what soldiers in the army smear on their weapons.

Fortunately, it was winter, Liu Wei'er was wearing thick clothes, and she didn't hurt her bones, and the bow and arrow only grazed her arm, making a bloody mark.

But just like that, she also bled a lot, and her injured arm was jet black at first. The doctor prescribed external medicine to bandage her, and then prescribed a lot of internal medicine to nourish blood and qi.

Liu Yan'er's tone was lost: "Shizi, the way of survival is no longer the original way of survival. ”

Zheng Sheng could understand her feelings. Yesterday, she slipped away to the west of the city, saw that the people who sought to survive had a stable life, and came back to Zheng Sheng and said that Shunyang would not harm people anymore.

But in just half a day, reality shattered her illusions. The people in the road of survival turned Shunyang City upside down. Set fires everywhere, and burn the grain in the county warehouse!

She didn't know the deeper inside story, otherwise she would have been even more sad. Zheng Sheng didn't know how to comfort her, so he told her to rest in the room.

"Shizi, you have to be careful." Liu Wen'er said in a low voice, "Last night, the target of those people was actually you, not me. ”
