Wang Ran returned to the ruined temple and lay down in his nest by the threshold. I thought that this Li Shun was really heroic, and he was polite to himself like a beggar, seeing that he was quite a person and fair, he must have been very well-informed, and after two days, he would pick some wild tea in the mountains and sell it to him, and by the way, he would find a way to inquire with him about the news of Hengqu Town.

Just thinking about it, Song Datou suddenly walked in, kicked him, and said, "Come out and speak." ”

Wang Ran felt a sigh in his heart, and sure enough, he saw it, his face was silent, he smirked a few times, stood up and pretended to be itchy, quietly hid the dagger in his hand, and then followed Song Datou out.

Song Datou took Wang Ran to the forest behind the broken temple, Wang Ran followed behind him and quietly looked around, it seemed that Song Datou looked at him stupidly and wanted to swallow it alone, so he didn't join the others.

Song Datou turned around, stared at Wang Ran coldly and said, "Hand it over." ”

"Hehe, I only have a stone on me that I picked up in the river today, boss?" Wang Ran scratched his head with one hand and said with a smile.

Song Datou grabbed Wang Ran's neck and said sharply: "Whoever wants your broken stone, what the master wants is the money that Li Daguan will reward you today, and hand it over to the master quickly, otherwise you will be asked to go to see the king of Yama today." ”

Song Datou was about to knock down Wang Ran, first give him some color to see, and suddenly felt that his abdomen was cold, as if he was being held by some sharp weapon, and then saw Wang Ran staring at him with clear eyes, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, not at all like the silly dementia of the past.

"Keep an eye on the road and don't stumble." Wang Ran said coldly.

Song Datou was shocked in his heart, and only dared to nod.

"Don't talk nonsense when you go back, or you'll ...... Hey,. ”

Song Datou knew that this time it was not a joke, but a threat that could kill people, so he hurriedly let go of Wang Ran, turned around and ran away. When he returned to the temple, he saw that all the beggars were there, Song Datou felt a little relieved, and turned his head to see Wang Ran staggering into the temple, his face was a little bruised and swollen, and his body was covered with mud, as if he had been beaten. All the beggars looked at Song Datou with fear on their faces, but Song Datou's whole body trembled unconsciously. Even though it has entered Futian, the evening breeze in the mountains is quite cool.

…

...

On this day, Wang Ran walked on the way back to the temple, thinking in his heart. When I was just delivering tea, I listened to Li Shun say that there has been no major movement in Hengqu Town recently, and I haven't heard of any murderers being arrested. I heard that Xu Yongyan, the third master of the Xu Mansion in the town, and his four servants disappeared for more than a month, and Dai Qing, the head of the prison, said that Xu Yongyan led people to rob the prison, kidnapped Zhang Xiaoliu, and then escaped together. If you have epilepsy, it won't stop there. But I haven't seen the figure of the third master of Xu Mansion for a long time, and Zhang Xiaoliu has no trace, and in recent days, rumors have begun to spread in the town that it is indeed Xu Yongyan who robbed the prison and saved Zhang Xiaoliu, because Xu Yongyan has a habit of dragon yang, and Zhang Xiaoliu is his most beloved pet.

Wang Ran was puzzled, his servants were all present when he killed Xu Yongyan that day, and he just knocked them unconscious, even if two of them may have died of serious injuries, but there are still two people who are quite lightly injured, and at most they are inconvenient to walk. And Xu Yongyan's body has not been buried himself, why is it only rumored that he is missing, and no one asserts that he is no longer alive?

returned to the temple and lay down in the broken nest, and looked up to see Song Datou, who had just been basking in the sun outside, also walked in. Song Datou glanced at Wang Ran in fear, thought for a moment, and walked in and muttered a few words to Li Er. Li Er scratched his head, came over and said to Wang Ran: "Boss Song said that there is someone with you." ”

Wang Ran sat up suddenly, paused, and smirked: "Hehe." I caught a glimpse of Song Datou with his head bent and silent.

Wang Ran walked out of the temple, walked quickly towards the way back, and saw a person walking slowly in the distance, it was Li Shun, could it be that he was exposed? Did the news Li Shun say just now deliberately confuse me? Wang Ran was terrified in his heart, quietly followed, walked to the inaccessible place, took out a short dagger and pasted it against Li Shun's waist, Li Shun turned around and raised his elbow with his left hand to gently separate Wang Ran, grabbed the short dagger with his right hand, and lightly wrapped his wrist around a knife flower. Wang Ran was shocked that he was still a practitioner.

Li Shun smiled and said, "Brother Ren is really not a stupid person, don't be surprised, I have no bad intentions." ”

Seeing that Wang Ran was full of vigilance, Li Shun continued: "I have been in contact with you recently, and I feel that although you are stupid on your face, you are actually thoughtful in your thoughts and actions. I like to make friends on weekdays, and when I see my brother's good face, I have a heart to make friends, but I see that you are quite wary, and I am afraid that my brother is something unspeakable, I am curious, so I want to explore quietly, if necessary, I can also help a little. I don't think that Brother Ren is not only thoughtful, but also very decisive. ”

Wang Ran saw that Li Shun didn't look like a lie, and thought about how he went to the snow tea shop to deliver tea in recent days, and saw that Li Shun's family was quite wealthy, and he didn't care much about the source of the tea, not like a person who was greedy for small profits, so he relaxed a little. But Ren Ran was worried in his heart, and he was still not stable enough to act, so he showed his feet here in Li Shun.

"I've been through the process, so I'm a little cautious and don't dare to give it away. Please also ask Brother Li to be alone. Wang Ran no longer pretended to be that foolish image, and said like Li Shun with a salute.

"It's the foolish brother who is abrupt, let's go, please eat and drink, take this opportunity, just talk to you about wine, and talk to your heart." Li Shun returned the salute and handed the dagger back to Wang Ran.

Wang Ran originally admired Li Shun, so he hid the dagger and went into the city with Li Shun to eat and drink.

In a private room in Qibao Building, Wang Ran and Li Shun pushed the cup and exchanged the lamp to talk. It turned out that this Li Shun's family has been selling tea for generations, and his family has a solid background, he likes to be brave since he was a child, and his family sent him to the Qingcheng faction to learn kung fu from other families, so he has cultivated a good martial arts. After the crown, he returned home and ran a tea farm with his brother-in-law. His brother-in-law's name is Wang Xiaobo, who is shrewd and capable, upright, and Li Shun is good at making friends, so the business is getting bigger and bigger, not only in Qingcheng County, but also in the entire Yongkang Army and even in Chengdu Mansion. Wang Ran reported his real name, only saying that his parents died early, and he lived with his master and sister since he was a child, but he was suddenly robbed this year, and his master and sister also went, leaving him alone and lonely. Li Shun was pitiful, so he said that it was better for Wang Ran to go to his tea house to do things, so that he could have a care and not have to suffer from hunger and cold.

Wang Ran thought that his revenge had not yet been avenged, and it was better not to implicate others easily, so he politely refused, Li Shun was quite regretful, but it was not easy to force it.

…

...

On this day, Wang Ran thought that since he was not arrested, he could continue to sneak back to Hengqu Town to wait for an opportunity to take revenge.

After picking the tea, he went to the snow tea shop, but the hired worker in the store said that the two owners went to the county Yazhi County Master to be a guest, and the hired man showed a sad face, Wang Ran was suspicious, but it was inconvenient to ask more, so he politely refused the seat prepared for him by the hired man, and squatted on the ground next to the mouth of Yingming Lane opposite the tea shop and waited for Li Shun to come back.

After waiting for a long time, I saw Li Shun and a man returning depressed, and when he got closer, he saw that the man had a long body and a good demeanor, which must have been Wang Xiaobo, the big proprietor of the Snow Tea Shop, who made Li Shun also respect very much. Li Shun saw Wang Ran squatting on the side of the street as if waiting for him, a smile bloomed on his sad face, and said, "Brother Ren, come in and talk." ”

Wang Ran followed into the store, and Li Shun introduced him, and the man was really his brother-in-law Wang Xiaobo. The three of them sat down to eat tea and chat, Wang Ran took out the burden and handed it to Li Shun, Li Shun opened it and saw that it was a ball of fresh tea leaves, Li Shun smiled and said, "I will let the guy weigh this tea later, and I will pay you according to the price of the past." ”

Wang Ran hurriedly said: "No need, the tea tree has been picked by me, and I want to give these to Brother Li." Thanks to Brother Li's protection these days, I will leave soon, and I don't know when I will be able to meet you again. ”

Li Shun regretted it, but it was inconvenient to say more, so he had to give a few instructions, so that if Wang Ran needed help, he could just speak.
