Chapter 12: The Man in the Dream

(Ask for collection and recommendation)

Some things are not something that can be borne by a sentence of "I am responsible", the popularity of the third Hu Guijing is not good, the relationship with his brothers is average, and he has never made deep friends, but after all, his surname is Hu, and there is a Gui character in the middle, and he is one of the forty names.

Zhao Ying brought them back to Beijing from the remote Guangxi Broken Tengxia Gorge, and raised them hard, for more than ten years, no one had an accident, which was a big miracle, but as a result, he had just died, and a son was killed.

When his father-in-law died, Hu Guiyang was sad but didn't want to show it, because he felt that it was meaningless, and whether his father-in-law died or he killed him, it had nothing to do with him, and he didn't need to be held responsible.

Xiaorou was killed, Hu Guiyang was deeply sorry, but he was not sad, although he always talked about this beautiful girl, in fact, the two were not familiar at all, if anyone should be responsible for her death, he was also the eldest brother and fifth brother who were presiding over family affairs, and still had nothing to do with him Hu Guiyang.

Hu Guijing is completely different.

If he hadn't wronged the third brother, if he had an extra heart eye and sent someone to guard the room, if he hadn't slept at such a critical time, but had patrolled around......

There are countless "ifs" in Hu Guiyang's heart, each of which seems to be able to avoid the death of the third brother Hu Guijing.

The old five Hu Gui, who was standing next to the corpse, turned his head and said, "The third and sixth brothers are right, there are really people who want to recreate the soup of their descendants." ”

The knife that Hu Guijing stepped under is a very clear evidence.

Hu Guiyang's face was expressionless, still staring at the bloody corpse, his heart was in chaos, and he was still popping up "ifs".

"Third and sixth brother, you go to rest first, it's not your business alone, my eldest brother and I will make a detailed plan, no matter who the murderer and the main messenger behind the scenes are, if you think that our brothers will be tied up, it is a big mistake."

Hu Guiyang nodded, stepped aside, and stood behind the other brothers as usual.

The boss Hu Guishen did not squeak, and at a critical moment, he would rather give up his power and status.

In this way, the dominant power was transferred to Hu Guimeng's hands, and no one raised any objections.

Hu Guimeng didn't discuss it with his eldest brother, at most he glanced at it, it was regarded as asking for advice, and then directly gave an order.

Zhao's house was closely protected, and the entire Guanyin Temple Hutong was under multiple surveillance, and more than a dozen righteous sons went out in batches to mobilize manpower, and at the same time released the wind to find the whereabouts of Xiao Peony and the man with two knives.

"In the past, there were no clues, but now I know who to find, everything is easy, no matter whether the demon fox is true or not, since the war has been declared on the Zhao family, the children of the Zhao family will never admit defeat, dig three feet into the ground, and find out the enemy and avenge the third brother!"

Although the righteous sons are all surnamed Hu, they regard themselves as the "Zhao family", Hu Guimeng's words won a cheer, and the righteous sons retreated one after another, each going to do something, and one brother was killed, which made them fight high.

There were only a few people left in the house, and Hu Guimeng was still unsatisfied, and said to the eldest brother Hu Guishen: "There is Brother Lao sitting at home, I will go out of the city to meet the sixteenth brother and them, and I will return to the city tomorrow." ”

"Brother Sixteen is back?" Hu Guishen showed a look of joy.

"I was on the road for a long time, and I heard that my father-in-law had passed away, so I rushed back non-stop, so I went to pick it up to avoid accidents."

"The sixteenth brother is extraordinary...... Yes, we should greet it, after all, the enemy is in the dark, and we are in the light. I'll stay, you go, go early and come back early, be careful. Hu Guishen said a few words.

"What about me? What to do? Hu Guiyang on the side finally spoke.

Hu Gui glanced at him fiercely, "Have a good rest for a day, and then look for the body of your stepfather." With that, he left with the last two brothers.

Hu Guishen took two steps back, away from the corpse, it would take a while for someone to clean up the house, he didn't want to leave now, but he didn't want to stay, "That...... Brother 36, look at it for a while, I'll ...... Arrange something. ”

Hu Guiyang didn't squeak, and Hu Guishen hurriedly walked out of the room when he agreed.

Hu Guiyang slowly walked up to the corpse and carefully observed.

I don't know how long it has been, a few people came in from outside, and the third and ninth brother Hu Guida took the lead, "Third and sixth brother, the coffin is here, we ......"

Hu Guiyang snorted, turned around and walked out.

The courtyard seemed empty again, and Hu Guiyang walked to the front yard, stood in place for a while, and walked towards the gate.

Hu Guida caught up from behind, "Brother Sanliu, where are you going?" ”

"Back to my own home."

"Fifth brother doesn't let everyone go out casually."

"I'll pick up a few clothes and I'll be back soon."

"That'...... I'll go with you. ”

"It's daytime, are you still afraid that I will be killed by the demon fox? Busy with you, leave me alone. ”

"Okay. Third and sixth brother, don't be too sad, the third brother really doesn't blame you for this. ”

Hu Guiyang smiled reluctantly.

The alley of Guanyin Temple has also become deserted, the family is closed, there are no guests in the teahouse at the mouth of the alley, only two nominees sit at the door to monitor the outside, and when they saw Hu Guiyang passing by, the two nodded slightly.

Chongwenmenli Street is still as bustling and lively as usual, and there is no knowledge of the tragedy that happened in the alley.

Approaching home, Hu Guiyang was in a slightly calmer mood, and when he arrived at the mouth of the alley, he glanced at the door of the house and felt a little hungry, so he simply went to the small noodle restaurant he often went to, asking for a bowl of noodles and a pot of hot wine, and he ate and drank at the same time.

Two more guests came to the noodle restaurant, looked at the door a few times, saw Hu Guiyang, and at the same time showed a smile, greeted them together, hugged their fists and arched their hands, one was called "Brother Guiyang", the other was called "my brother", so enthusiastic that they seemed to see their long-lost relatives.

"You two." Hu Guiyang glanced at it and continued to eat.

The age of the two looks two or three years older than Hu Guiyang, one is thin and tall, the other is thin and short, they are scoundrels nearby, the tall one is called Jiang Erpi, and the short one is called Zheng Sanhun.

"Long time no see."

"No, I want to kill our brothers."

"I heard that you fought with the demon fox for 300 rounds last night, and the demon fox was scared and ran wildly."

"I heard that my brother has been promoted."

"Don't forget to bring up the old ones."

The two flattered with a smile and sat on Hu Guiyang's left and right.

Hu Guiyang ignored them, ate and drank by himself, and saw that the two of them swallowed saliva, and couldn't help it, so he slapped the table and called noodles, "Big bowl, add more shame." ”

The shopkeeper nodded in agreement, but his eyes looked at Hu Guiyang, he knew who should pay for this meal.

Hu Guiyang nodded, and the shopkeeper ordered noodles to be made in the back kitchen.

Jiang Erpi chirped, "Brother Gui Yang, have you drunk the wine?" Do you want to come again? Our brothers will accompany you to get drunk and rest, which can be regarded as congratulating you on your promotion. ”

Zheng San couldn't help nodding, but Hu Guiyang shook his head, "Don't talk nonsense, do you have something to do with me?" ”

Jiang Erpi said with a smile: "We have all heard that Brother Gui Yang has become a hundred households, and he will be Hu Baihu and Master Hu in the future." Those brothers of yours are spreading rumors everywhere looking for clues about the demon fox, and I'm still wondering, why did you forget about the two of us? Come out and look for you, I'll see you here. ”

"Do you have a clue?"

"Not yet, but sooner or later. Isn't it a man you're looking for? He was tall, armed with two knives, and wore a fur robe. Since he is a man, he will have fun, who is more familiar with these spring courtyard alleys of the Jiaofang Division than us? As soon as he appears, we know immediately. ”

"Okay, let me know when you know, I'm in the Zhao family in the alley of Guanyin Temple these days." Hu Guiyang knew the skills of these two people too well, so he didn't take it seriously and was casually perfunctory.

Two bowls of noodles came up, the two of them devoured each other, and they didn't have time to speak, Hu Guiyang watched them eat, "It turns out that it is so difficult to be the master of the house, and it is very easy to see the father-in-law, but it is really my turn, only to find that this is not the case." ”

"Do you care about the 'Captain of the Absolute Son'?" Zheng Sanhun chewed noodles in his mouth, and asked without raising his head, Captain Juezi is the name of the Zhao family's righteous son on the rivers and lakes, and only the most familiar and hated people will call it that.

"The Zhao family is just a hundred households like you, of course, Brother Gui Yang is in charge, unless you ......" Jiang Erpi didn't swallow his mouth, unable to speak.

Hu Guiyang didn't speak to them at all, stood up, and said to the shopkeeper, "A knot at the end of the month." ”

He is a frequent customer here, he can keep accounts, and the shopkeeper personally delivers it to the door, Jiang and Zheng want to eat noodles, and they want to hold Hu Guiyang to speak, so they finally choose to eat noodles.

The family has not changed, Hu Guiyang found a few changes of clothes, put on a burden, and suddenly didn't want to leave, but felt that everything at home was better than Zhao's house.

He lay on the bed, intending to rest for a while, and fell asleep unconsciously.

When he woke up, it was already afternoon, Hu Guiyang hurriedly got up, picked up his baggage and went out, for the Zhao family, this is an extraordinary time, and he doesn't want to cause trouble to his brothers.

As soon as the door was locked, a sharp voice sounded from behind: "Yo, isn't this Hu Daguan?" It's really better to meet by chance, looking for you several times, and I finally met today. ”

The first time he was called a "big official", Hu Guiyang was very uncomfortable, turned around and looked, it turned out to be a famous matchmaker Zhang in Dongcheng, forty or fifty years old, sharp-tongued, the champion of matchmakers, always carrying a small basket in her elbow, covered with flower cloth, like a cornucopia inside, she may take out any strange things.

This time, Mrs. Zhang took out a big and red apple, "Look, there is such a good fruit at this season." ”

"I don't buy it." Hu Guiyang often joked with Zhang Matchmaker's sister-in-law, but when they really met, they had to be sent away as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, don't go to the Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, I have something to do with you today."

"Me?" Hu Guiyang laughed, "You're mistaken, I didn't invite you." ”

Mrs. Zhang smiled like a flower, "Rare things, rare things, it's not a man who came to me to protect the media this time." Hu Daguan, there is a girl who has taken a fancy to you, and it is a good girl who is hard to find in the capital, on appearance, one in a million, on family background, an alley is all people's, on character ......"

"Stop." Hu Guiyang was even more confused, "I am Hu Guiyang, the godson of Zhao Ying in the Hutong of Guanyin Temple, not the 'Hu Daguan' you are looking for." ”

"Oh, I still don't know you?" Mrs. Zhang's smile became brighter and brighter, "If you don't live for a long time, any strange thing can happen." First of all, the girl had a few dreams one after another, dreaming that the fairy pointed out, saying that she was destined to marry 'fox and ghost raising thirty-six lang', and then, the wall of the house appeared for no reason, and it was also ......"

Hu Guiyang's heart froze, and his face changed, "Someone dreamed of me?" ”

"That's right, isn't that you?"

"Who's the girl?"

"Outside the city, Baoqing Hutong He million ......"

Hu Guiyang ran away, the more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

Mrs. Zhang stood in place, and only came back to her senses after a while, "As for it, don't you want it to be cheap to send to the door?" What a ......."
