Chapter 147: The arsonist is caught all over the city
"Huh?" Fang Zheng was shocked when he heard this, turned his head and looked at the burning house in the distance, with mixed feelings in his heart: "It turns out that it is my house......"
Xiao Huaiyuan's expression seemed to be quite uncomfortable,—— at least on the surface.
He patted Fang Zheng's shoulder with a sad face, and said in a deep voice: "Brother Fang is really a righteous person, sticking a knife in his friend's ribs and going to the soup to fight the fire...... Well, it's wrong, it's to go to the soup to light the fire, Xiao is really admired......"
Fang Zheng couldn't say how he felt at this time, he thought that he had done a very stupid thing, as for how stupid this thing was...... Ahem, Young Master Fang didn't want to think about it anymore.
What worries Fang Zheng even more is that this time he has lost a lot of money, I don't know how much is left after the house was burned down, Wen Sen and his thirty brothers are probably fighting on the front line of firefighting now? Killing them would not have guessed that the fire was set by their beloved new boss himself......
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng was in a rather weird mood, a little like crying, and a little like laughing......
After being stunned for a long time, Fang Zheng suddenly remembered that the culprit was beside him, and rubbed his face vigorously, Fang Zheng said angrily: "Lose money!" ”
Xiao Huaiyuan was stunned and said, "What kind of money?" ”
Fang Zheng gritted his teeth and said, "You burned my house!" - If you didn't burn it, at least you instigated it! ”
Xiao Huaiyuan shouted that he was wronged: "Brother Fang, don't talk nonsense, laxatives in the water tank, peeing in the well, and lighting a fire outside the kitchen, these are not what I asked you to do, I have been stopping you, have you forgotten?" ”
Fang Zheng was stunned when he heard this, Xiao Huaiyuan seemed to be right, he was just trying to make it bad at that time, and he didn't listen to his persuasion at all, if he had known that the house was his own, he wouldn't have done it if he was killed......
Fang Zheng said stupidly: "...... Then why didn't you stop me? ”
Xiao Huaiyuan was even more wronged when he heard it: "I can't stop it, look at the posture of you lighting the fire, whoever stops you is in a hurry, I didn't have time to hold you, the fire was ignited by you." - Hey, Brother Fang, your arson action is quite neat, did you often do this before? ”
Fang Zheng's face darkened even more when he heard this, this kid's mouth was hurtful.
“…… I forgot to ask you, why did you run to the back door of my subordinate's new house to pick the lock? Did my subordinates provoke you? Fang Zheng felt that Xiao Huaiyuan was a strange person.
Xiao Huaiyuan shrugged innocently: "Brother Fang's housewarming, Xiao came to celebrate, and planned to enter through the back door to surprise you......"
Fang Zheng looked at him suspiciously: "This house was bought by my subordinates yesterday, and it is extremely secret, Brother Xiao got the news today, it's really not simple, hehe......"
Xiao Huaiyuan smiled modestly: "...... In fact, Xiao took the wrong path, and he ran into it blindly, it's nothing, hehe......"
This kid runs the train with his mouth full, and he doesn't tell the truth! Fang Zheng hatefully raised a middle finger in his heart.
"Brother Xiao's luck is really good, you will be bumpered with blindly, you have to go to the street for a walk, maybe you can pick up a gold ingot if you are not careful, haha......" Fang Zheng smirked.
Xiao Huaiyuan smiled more fakely than Fang Zheng: "That's that, Xiao's luck has always been good, haha......"
Fang Zheng said with a smile: "The ancients said: 'Good luck only lives in the virtuous', if Brother Xiao lies with him, I'm afraid that the good luck is coming to an end, haha......"
Xiao Huaiyuan avoided talking about it: "The ancients still said this? Wrong? Brother Fang wants to read more......"
Fang Zheng's face smiled a little stiffly: "Brother Xiao, if you don't tell me what your intention is to come to my new house, I'm afraid that the charge of arson will have to be planted on you, and then you can go and have a good chat with Lord Yin Chen......
Xiao Huaiyuan's face changed, and he forced a smile: "Brother Fang is really good at laughing, it's obvious that you set the fire......"
Fang Zheng smiled like a scoundrel: "I put it in, but if I tell Lord Chen that you put it, who do you think he will believe?" ”
As he spoke, he bared his teeth at Xiao Huaiyuan and said, "...... I bought this house with money, how can there be a reason in the world for the owner to burn his own house? It must be someone with bad intentions who suffered a little loss by eating white food in the month of invitation, so he vented his anger for personal gain, brought his own laxatives, hot urine, fire folds and other things, secretly picked the lock on the back door of my house, and then ...... Hey, all in all, it was an organized, premeditated, purposeful act of revenge. Moreover, the arsonist was very disadvantageous, and when he committed the crime, I was actually seen by the owner, so I chased the culprit all the way here......"
Fang Zheng paused, glanced at Xiao Huaiyuan, and said with a smile: "...... I wonder how credible I am when I say this to Lord Chen? Will Master Chen rip off your pants and spank you on the spot? Brother Xiao, you can guess. Hehe......"
Xiao Huaiyuan was stunned by Fang Zheng's words, and he couldn't speak for a long time. After a long time, Fang Cai arched his hand and said with a wry smile: "Brother Fang is really talented...... Xiao is really convinced, he planted the sham so thoroughly, Brother Fang is worthy of being the shadow leader appointed by the emperor, it is really too despicable......"
Look, what did Young Master Ben say, and sure enough, he was called, "Shadow Head", tsk......
Fang Zheng wrinkled his face as if he had swallowed a fly, coughed dryly, and said tentatively, "Brother Xiao was sent by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" ”
Xiao Huaiyuan shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Brother Fang, I can't say, Xiao can tell you that I am friends with you, not enemies, and I hope that Brother Fang will not be embarrassed." ”
"If you don't say it, aren't you afraid that I will really rely on you for this?"
Xiao Huaiyuan smiled meaningfully: "I believe you won't, the reason is very simple, Brother Fang can understand it if you think about it." ”
Fang Zheng was about to say something more, when he suddenly heard more than a dozen people behind him, holding sticks and latches, running towards them with a fierce momentum, and a man led by him pointed at Fang Zheng and the two of them while running and shouted: "Catch them, I saw with my own eyes, after the fire, they ran out of the burning house in a panic, that's right!" ”
Then the crowd of people was furious, and they all raised their clubs and latches, and angrily slaughtered them.
Fang Zheng and Xiao Huaiyuan changed color together, the eyes of the masses were bright, this is really reasonable, they have run so far, and there are still people catching up, it seems that being an enemy of the people is indeed self-defeating.
At this time, it was too late to delve into Xiao Huaiyuan's purpose of exploring the shadow of the new house, Fang Zheng hurriedly hugged his fist at Xiao Huaiyuan and said: "Brother Xiao, I don't know what year I will ...... today."
"Oops! What kind of text are you dragging! Hurry up and run for your life, you go east and I will go west......" Xiao Huaiyuan was so frightened that cold sweat broke out.
"Okay, take care!"
"So are you."
After the two affectionately cherished each other, they fled separately.
said it heroically, but in fact, the two were chased and killed by the indignant people very embarrassed, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "holding their heads and running away".
Fang Zheng didn't think about the consequences at all when he set the fire, he thought that even if he burned down all the kitchens, it would be like that, but he didn't expect that the ancient houses were all gathered together, and a fire could easily affect the pond fish, and it would affect a wide area, so the people living together were very united, and once the fire broke out, they would work together to extinguish it. - Of course, they hated the arsonists even more, so they pursued them more enthusiastically and actively than they fought fires.
Fang Zheng was chased like a rat crossing the street, scurrying in the streets and alleys, even he didn't know where he had run, and he could only hear the shouts of the people everywhere in his ears.
"Everyone is looking separately, we must find those two bastards who killed a thousand knives!"
"He must be hiding in these alleys, let's go around from both ends......"
"There's a river jumper!"
"Let's jump too! And one more for sure around here......"
“…………”
Fang Zheng hid in the shadows and gasped, poking his head out from time to time to observe the situation. In his heart, he admired Xiao Huaiyuan, this kid was really kind, he was chased and killed and jumped into the river, I don't know how far he was forced to jump into the river. But this kid must be finished, many of the people in the capital grew up by the Qinhuai River, relying on water to draft, the water is very exquisite, if Xiao Huaiyuan jumps into the river, the home field can become the away game, and eighty percent will be caught by the people who are proficient in water like catching the king.
This young master won't be so stupid, the streets and alleys are the best battlefields, and you may be able to get out soon.
So after a comrade-in-arms surnamed Xiao jumped into the river without hesitation, Young Master Fang still bravely and tenaciously launched a wonderful street battle with the people in the alleys and alleys of the capital.
As more and more people joined the round-up, the movement of the entire capital became more and more intense, as lively as a festival. Thousands of people gathered around happily, searching the streets and alleys, and Young Master Fang's escape from arrest became more and more difficult.
Fang Zheng's shoes ran off, his hair was scattered and half-draped, his clothes were already dirty, as if he had rolled countless times in the garbage heap, and the whole person looked no better than the squatting flower child on the street.
He wiped his tears while running, and the grievances in his heart were indescribable, who did I recruit to provoke whom? Didn't you just light a small fire out of the position of helping your friends? As for launching a city-wide manhunt for me? Why don't you arrest Xiao Huaiyuan? That kid is the mastermind, besides, what does it matter to you that Young Master Ben burned his own house......
Thinking that he was a dignified court official, the earl of Qinfeng, or the only son of the richest man in the Chinese Dynasty, but now he was chased like a lost dog, Fang Zheng couldn't help but feel sad, full of emotion, and secretly made a grand oath to the gods and Buddhas: never play with fire again in the future!
Not to mention, the oath may really work, Fang Zheng immediately found in the winding alleyway, after the front went around, it was actually Huashi Street, Fang Zheng even saw the black-bottomed signboard of the familiar silk shop on Huashi Street, as if he was constantly waving to him.
Fang Zheng was ecstatic while running, hope, dawn, as long as I rushed out of this alley and got to the street, I could successfully escape from the pursuit, sneak home, and then close the door and sleep hard, treat everything that happened today as a nightmare, forget everything after waking up, and still live my own little life every day as if I had nothing to do......
Young Master Fang's idea was good, but after all, it was just an idea......
Just as he was about to rush out of the alley, only one step away from victory, disaster struck from the sky.
Before he could show a triumphant smile, he felt that his eyes were dark, and a sack fell from the top of his head, impartially on his head, Fang Zheng let out an "oops", failed to retract, and fell to the ground. Then a rope tied him strongly, and by this time, the arsonist Young Master Fang had finally fallen into the legal net.
I felt a big foot kick my ass a few times, and I vaguely heard Vinson's angry voice: "Damn, dare to burn our shadow house, it's boring!" Let's go, bring this kid into the mansion, and ask Lord Chen to decide! ”
Fang Zheng's head was put in a sack, his heart was very anxious, and he shouted: "...... Depend on! Let go, let go! It's me! Your boss......"
Helplessly, his head was covered, and the voice that shouted out was vague, and the shadow subordinates didn't hear it clearly at all, so they lifted him up and walked to the mansion, so the young master Fang was like a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered, and was carried through the bustling flower market street, all the way to the Jinling mansion.
Fang Zheng was ashamed and indignant in his heart, this time it was a big shame, the court officials were tied up by a group of spies, where will I put my face when I get to the public court later? He set fire to his subordinates' houses, and then his subordinates captured themselves alive, and there is a day of retribution in the dark......
When they arrived at the public hall, everyone put Fang Zheng down on the ground, only to hear a startled slap in the hall, and Yin Chen Jiulin of Jinling Mansion said majestically: "Who is the person under the hall?" ”
"Your Excellency, this person is one of the suspects who set fire to Xicheng just now, and he was taken down by the grass people and others, and he was escorted over to ask your lord to decide." Vinson's voice was tepid. The Shadows are a secret organization, and their members appear as ordinary people, so Vinson calls himself the Grass People.
"What a guts! To dare to openly set fires is simply lawless! - Untie the sack from his head first! ”
Fang Zheng sighed silently, okay, the time for embarrassment has come, I knew that I had jumped into the river with Xiao Huaiyuan just now......
The sack was untied, and as expected, everyone was surprised: "Why are you?" ”
Chen Jiulin stared stupidly, sitting in the hall as if he had been pointed, and did not say a word for a long time.
The expressions of Vincent and the shadows were even richer, as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight, and they were all silent.
Fang Zheng rubbed his face, scolded a few words in his heart, and then greeted everyone with a smile: "Hey, hello everyone, have you eaten?" ”
Chen Jiulin was dumbfounded for a long time, and suddenly remembered that this was a public court, and his official authority had to be maintained, so he had to cough dryly, and said in a deep voice: "Eh...... Lord Fang, they ...... What are you...... Ahem, I heard them say that you set the fire, is it true? ”
Fang Zheng's face was extremely embarrassed at this time, and he laughed twice when he heard the words, and he wanted to throw this black cauldron on Xiao Huaiyuan's head, but after thinking about it, no, Xiao Huaiyuan is a person from the prince's mansion, if this matter is planted to him, it will be tantamount to directly offending the prince. Fang Zheng didn't want to turn his face with the prince for a house. - No wonder Xiao Huaiyuan's bastard is so sure that he doesn't dare to rely on him......
Looks like I'll have to carry this myself.
Fang Zheng sighed heavily, glanced at his shadow subordinates who showed grievances and sadness, swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and said softly: "Uh...... This, cough, I don't know if there is a provision in the law of the Chinese Dynasty that burning the house you bought is considered a crime? ”
-------- the following number of words does not count as money---------
Xiao Huaiyuan's identity is very strange, guess what he does?
Another: Ask for a ticket, you want any ticket.
