Chapter Ninety-Five: Chatting and Talking Strange Things During the Banquet
Zhang Fei beckoned us to put our things in the house, and we entered through the side door, put the things down in the side room behind us, and then came out and stood behind Zhang Feizao. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Fifth Master said: "Let's just talk, don't pretend to be here." ”
Zhang Fei smiled awkwardly and said, "Then you still let us pretend to be like them since we were children?" The fifth master said: "Pretend? I thought you would learn that first, and slowly integrate into this circle, alas, I didn't expect you little rabbits to be really hard to change. When I saw you chatting and eating with them in the morning, I knew that you couldn't hold it anymore. Will you scatter the flowers when they are gone? "Haha, I didn't expect this old man to know this guy quite well.
Zhang Fei smiled and said, "You still know us." The fifth master said: "Hehe, don't talk about this, by the way, I heard Jin'er say that you went out with that Xuande a while ago?" ”
Zhang Fei didn't hide it, and said: "You also know what kind of character I have, I just want to go out with my eldest brother and second brother to make a name for myself and come back, alas, but don't wait for me, I run into walls everywhere after I go out, plus this chaos is really difficult to move an inch." Originally, there were still thousands of people in his hands, but in the end, because of his shallow experience, all of them were buried. "Listening to Zhang Fei chatting with the fifth master, it's not like Zhang Fei at all, it seems that this grandson understands everything? Are you usually pretending to be stupid for me?
The fifth master nodded and said, "Seeing that you are in vain, but you can summarize your experience on this trip, it is not bad." It's okay, you're still young, and I don't think that Xuande is a person who is subordinate to others, you will definitely be able to break out of your own world. Zhang Fei sounded like a comforter, but I knew that this old man was simply a god's prediction.
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "This is also the reason why I unconditionally believe in the eldest brother and the second brother, I believe that with the eldest brother, they will definitely be able to make a name for themselves in the end." The fifth master nodded and said, "It's good to have this perseverance, by the way, eat at my place at night, and I'll call someone to call your father in a while, I haven't seen him for a long time." ”
Zhang Fei didn't refuse, and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you." The fifth master looked behind Zhang Fei and said, "Look at the three behind you, none of them look like slaves, where did you find this?" I saw the little brother at noon, and in less than two hours, how did you have two more retinues. ”
Zhang Fei said with an embarrassed face: "Hehe, you can see it." The fifth master said: "I have read countless people in my life, and the state of these three is obviously not inferior." Look at the little brother in white, although he is young, but looking at the heroic spirit between his eyebrows, he must have served in the army. "Saying that, I waved to Zilong, and I thought he was complimenting me.
Zilong smiled and said, "I've seen the fifth master." The fifth master nodded and said, "Come, sit down." Don't jump. Then the three of us came around from behind and saluted the fifth master. The fifth master continued: "The girl in the middle is even more extraordinary, although she is not decorated on her body, but with this temperament, she is not an ordinary lady, right?" "I thought to myself, where did you see that? In my opinion, she is like a wild monkey who has just come out of the mountains.
Ji Lingyu was also polite: "The fifth master is too modest, hehe." Then the fifth master looked at me and said, "This is the most like a servant of the three." Ha ha. "As soon as I heard this, I rolled my eyes, big brother, I'm still waiting for you to praise me, uncle.
But the fifth master changed his words and said, "It is also the deepest hidden one." If it weren't for the two of them, I'd be a retinue. But to be able to stand with these two people, I know that you are not extraordinary, am I right? "Uncle, it turns out that the two of them exposed me, it seems that there is really no way to be with these people with poor acting skills.
I bowed to the fifth master and said, "Fifth master, good eyes." The fifth master waved his hand and said, "I didn't guess what you were doing." I pointed at the two of them and said, "There are two of them, and you have won two of them." “
The fifth master laughed and said, "It's really interesting for you to talk in this offspring, Yide, are these three of you all partners you met on the road?" Zhang Fei replied: "Well, yes. "Then he introduced us one by one. The fifth master stroked his beard and said: "So I have been telling Jin'er that if you want to meet someone who is walking with you, then you must walk on the road first, otherwise how can you meet like-minded people, many people think that you can only go on the road after meeting your companions, but I have always said that only after you go out, can you meet your companions, it seems that what I said is not wrong at all." “
I thought about the old man's words, I think it makes sense, I used to be a two-point and one-line person when I went to work, except that the company is home, there is almost no opportunity to contact outsiders, occasionally go out to play, and also with friends who have known for more than ten years. But suddenly there was such an opportunity to come here, and I really met a lot of people along the way, and I learned a lot from them to a greater or lesser extent. It seems that this trip was not in vain.
We all bowed to the fifth master and expressed our admiration. The fifth master said: "I didn't expect you to be the captain Tong in the mouth of the storyteller, disrespectful and disrespectful." When I heard this stubble again, I wiped my sweat and said, "I won't tell you anything, I also heard it on the way here, and I was so embarrassed to hear it, what they said was too exaggerated." “
The fifth master laughed and said: "It's not an exaggeration, people now need to boost people's morale to the kind of heroes in the book, although you think he is talking nonsense, but in my opinion, he has calmed the people's hearts in disguise." Isn't that a good thing. "I didn't expect the old man to think so far-reaching, and I admired the old man's long-term vision.
I said, "Admire it below." The fifth master said: "It's just that I have lived a little longer." You are the mainstay of today. We're old. After speaking, he got up and patted Zhang Fei. Then he went to the door and said, "I will go and rest for a while, and I will send for your father, and you will rest here for a while." I won't be with you. “
After watching the old man walk away, Zhang Fei said: "Don't look at me I'm afraid of him, but I really like to chat with his old man." Zilong also nodded and said, "Well, the old man has a long-term vision and unique thinking, which must be better than those corrupt officials in the court." Ji Lingyu also praised people rarely: "Don't compare those corrupt officials with him, how can they be worthy." “
I said, "Hey, hey, hey, didn't people just praise you two for a few words, why do you two lick like this?" Everyone glared at me, we chatted for more than an hour, Lao Zhang walked in with his hands behind his back, saw that several of us were there, and asked, "Why are you just a few of you?" What about them? “
Only then did we remember that the three people were still hanging outside, and Zhang Fei asked, "Where are you from?" Lao Zhang said, "I came from the store." A young man came to me and said that the fifth child would like to have dinner, so I won't come here. Zhang Fei said, "Then I'll go back and call the three of them." I took him by the hand and said, "Whatever they are, you forgot what those treacherous bastards did to you in the morning." “
Zhang Fei said with a smile: "What you said is reasonable, let them solve it themselves." Zhang Fei and I laughed lewdly. Lao Zhang said: "Look at the obscene appearance of the two of you, who are you going to pit again?" Zhang Fei told his father what happened in the morning. Lao Zhang smiled: "Well, then let them fend for themselves, hahahaha." “
After a while, the fifth master walked in and saw that Lao Zhang was also coming, and said with a smile: "Lao Zhang, you came quite quickly, come, let's move to the living room, the meal is ready." He said and led us to the living room.
When he entered the living room and saw that Xu Jin was already waiting in the side hall, Zhang Fei said, "Is the matter done?" Xu Jin sighed: "Alas, it's all a bit of a, and the trouble is dead." Zhang Fei asked curiously, "What's the matter?" Worried about this? Xu Jin motioned for us all to sit down and said, "Let's talk while eating." Come, Uncle Zhang, sit, everyone, sit. “
After everyone sat down, the fifth master sighed: "I haven't sat with Lao Zhang for a long time, come, let's go first." Lao Zhang looked at the small wine cup and said, "The first day you met me?" The girls are drinking with this thing, so change the bowl for me. ”
The fifth master laughed and said: "You are so old, you still drink so violently, can your body stand it?" Lao Zhang said with a disdainful face: "You ask me how much I drank with them yesterday, and I have a fight?" The crowd shook their heads. The fifth master smiled: "It's better for you to be in good health, come and serve a big bowl to the fourth master." "As soon as I heard it, Zhang Fei's father is the fourth master? Is he the fifth master? Is there a connection?
I asked Zhang Fei in a low voice: "Your father is the fourth master, he is the fifth master, what's the situation?" Zhang Fei said with a smile: "They were also sworn brothers back then, a total of seven people, and now there are only four of them left, one of them never came back after entering Sichuan, and the other is Da Niu and his father, his father went out and didn't come back, or he must have been called." ”
I nodded and said, "So you learned this from your father?" Zhang Fei smiled and didn't speak. After a while, the big bowl came up, and Zhang Siye poured a bowl and said, "Come, fifth, let's go first." He tilted his neck and it. The fifth master smiled helplessly and said, "Come on, do it." ”
After they finished drinking, a few of us got up again and politely toasted and began to move freely. Zhang Fei suddenly thought of the topic just now, took a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth, and asked indistinctly: "By the way, you haven't said anything about it just now, what is going on?" ”
Xu Jin sighed: "Alas, don't mention it, since our county started two months ago, we have lost children inexplicably, and all of them are babies." It's not strange that you say that half of the child is lost, and he plays outside every day, and you say that the baby that is taken care of every day can still be lost? What a hell of a thing. ”
Zhang Fei also said curiously: "Lose the baby? How many have you lost? Xu Jin said: "In two months, I lost five." This baby is not an ordinary person, if you lose five, you will lose five, and you can't tell it, but how old is our county, and we lost five babies in two months, and all of them were just born. ”
I asked, "What's the clue then?" Xu Jin shook his head and said, "What's the clue, since the first person who lost his baby came to Yamen to report the case two months ago, to this afternoon, there are exactly five." What's the idea? And most of them searched for a long time by themselves, and only came to report to the official when they couldn't find it, and when they came to report to the official, the scene had already been destroyed by themselves. There is no clue at all. ”
I frowned and said, "Well, it's going to be difficult. By the way, were they all lost in the night? Xu Jin said: "It's not all, there are all lost day and night, all of them are when the adults go out to work for a while, and they are gone when they come back, and there is one more bizarre, taking the child to bask in the sun in the yard, I am afraid that the child will be thirsty, so I put it on the rocking chair in the yard and go in to get a piece of water, and it will be gone when I come out." ”
Zilong said: "Then this has been staring at this for a long time, and this person must be a person with light feet and quick movements." Don't you have such outstanding people in your county? Xu Jin said: "I have also thought about the one you said, but our county is such a big place, it is not an exaggeration to say that except for the newborn child, there are almost no people I don't know, this is not necessary to look for at all, I know a rough idea." ”
Ji Lingyu asked, "What about outsiders?" Xu Jin pointed at Ji Lingyu and said, "I also thought of this when you said this, we have been watching outsiders now, and almost all the manpower has been sent out to track and investigate." I said, "Have you ever had a similar case before?" ”
Xu Jin shook his head and said: "It's not boasting, this county has always been peaceful, and in the two years I've been in office, the biggest thing is fighting." I really can't cope with it suddenly. At this time, the fifth master said, "Why haven't I heard you mention this to me?" “
Xu Jin said: "Alas, my own business, I want to solve it by my own ability, and I don't want to bother your old man." The fifth master nodded and said, "It's no problem with your ability, but now you have no clue at all, so if you continue like this, there will be more victims." At that time, it is estimated that you will not be able to sit firmly in this county order. “
Xu Jin frowned and said: "It doesn't matter if this county order is done or not, the main thing is to find the missing children." What kind of person who thundered and struck the sky did such a hurtful thing, and was not afraid of retribution? Zhang Siye said: "I often have people in this restaurant, and I will pay attention to you when the time comes." “
Xu Jin hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, Uncle Zhang." Zhang Siye waved his hand and said: "I heard that the youngest son of the old Li family in Xitou was lost, and I didn't think much about it, but I didn't expect it to be so serious now." I said, "First you have to understand what they want these kids to do, and then you can find clues." ”
Xu Jin said helplessly: "Alas, I don't know anything." What can you do with a baby? Selling children doesn't sell such a small one, huh? I asked curiously, "Why don't you sell such a small child?" Xu Jin said: "I also heard my master tell me before, he said that the county order had encountered a child abduction and trafficking before, all of them were looking for some children who could walk a little, and they were not very sensible, because the baby was too young, and I didn't know if the child had any congenital diseases. ”
I sighed and said, "What's this thing for?" Zhang Fei said: "Maybe you meet that kind of hungry person who doesn't choose to eat?" Xu Jin said: "I have also thought about this, in the past two months, I have found someone to interrogate all the annoying prisoners who have been released from prison and are still in this county, but there are no clues, alas, I really don't know what to do now." ”
