Chapter 13: The Death of Li Yong
The night is like a veil that covers the earth. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoAs the vendors closed their stalls and went home, Chen Liucheng, who had been noisy for a day, gradually became quiet.
At this moment, in a luxuriously decorated mansion in the south of the city, the roar of Li Yong, the head of the Li family, was deafening, and several of the doormen he sent out in the morning had not returned. If it weren't for the torn clothes on their bodies, I'm afraid even Li Yong wouldn't have been able to recognize who these corpses were.
"Can anyone tell me why Hou Da and they have become like this? Who dares to move my Li Yong in Chen Liucheng? Well? ”
Several leaders of the doormen looked at each other, and finally one of them stepped forward to reply: "The head of the family, the villain found the place where these people were killed in an alley in the east of the city, and that place is the place where the head of the family asked Hou Da and them to arrest people in the morning. ”
"Could it be that Hou Dadao was killed by that ugly ghost? No, Hou Da, they have been staring at it for a few days, and it was they who saw with their own eyes that the ugly ghost this morning was pushing a cart with a package on his back as if he was going to go far away, so he moved after sending someone to inform me. Li Yong seemed to have a faint pain in the dark green on his cheek when he spoke, and he couldn't help but gently rub it with his hand.
Through the villain's interrogation of several families living in the alley, it was learned that Hou Da and the others were killed by a young general's family after they had already found the father and daughter. It is said that the young man's family used a long sword, and Hou Da and the others were cut down in just a few moments. ”
The doorman wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, he was supposed to lead Hou Da and his party today, but because he had a bad stomach yesterday and didn't slow down all night, Hou Da took people to arrest people alone. Now that I think about it, I'm really afraid, I can stand out among many customers because of this hard work, as for the ability in my hands, I am not as big as Na Hou. If I had gone with me this morning, there would have been an extra corpse on the ground right now.
Li Yong's inverted triangular eyes flashed with a fierce light: "Just one family general killed Hou Da's group?" Is there such a person in this Chen Liucheng? Don't you boast that Chen Liucheng has gone up to the officials of the family to the pawns and husbands, and no trace of wind and grass can escape your surveillance? Now can you tell me, where did the boy dare to send his men to kill my disciples? ”
The head of the family was angry, and the villain learned through the grapevine that the eldest son of the patriarch of the Chen Liuwu clan had recently returned from a study tour outside, and the Chen Liuwu clan was rumored to have a relationship with the general of the dynasty, and there were many soldiers in the army to protect him. Speaking of which, it may be that the eldest son of the patriarch of the Wu clan met Hou Da and them, or he disagreed with each other or valued the little beauty as much as the head of the family, and sent guards to kill Hou Da and kill them and throw them into a mass grave. A doorman in charge of collecting intelligence hurriedly stepped forward, Li Yongfei is not a good person, even if he is a doorman himself, if he does not do well, he will not forgive.
Li Yong listened to the speculation of his subordinates, but his face became even more gloomy. If it is an ordinary small family, he Li Yong has raised so many customers, and he may not be able to go to ask for a bargain. But if it is this Chen Liuwu clan, let's not talk about whether they really have a relationship with the general, let's just say that the group of imposing guards in their mansion is definitely not something that these doormen who are good at stealing chickens and dogs and bullying the old and weak can deal with.
But he claims to be Chen Liuyi, and he has never been the only one who sent a guest to bully others, how could he ever be killed by someone else's family like this today? If it was really the rabbit cub of Chen Liuwu's family, if he just pinched his nose and confessed it, how could he Li Yong still raise his head in Chen Liucheng?
"What the hell is going on, I need to go to the Wu Mansion in person, hurry up and prepare some gifts, and tomorrow I will ask Wu Ke that guy face to face. If it was really his Wu Ke's son, I would have to ask him for an explanation. Li Yongchang breathed a sigh of relief and suppressed the anger in his heart. At this moment, the power in his hands can't help Chen Liuwu, but if Wu Ke doesn't give himself an explanation, even if he wants to use some unsavory means, he will make them pay the price!
………
The next morning, small traders from all over the world poured into Chen Liucheng, bringing their goods and starting to sell them along the streets, looking for a suitable place to spread their stalls. These hard-working guys made Chen Liucheng, who had been dormant all night, lively again.
One of the vendors, carrying a hat, pushed a small cart full of dates slowly. Seeming to be a little tired, when he walked to the shade of a tree dozens of paces away from Li's Mansion, the vendor leaned against the trunk of the tree, grabbed a handful of jujubes from the car and slowly nibbled on them.
The dozen or so doormen standing in front of the Li Mansion had already noticed the vendor, and one of them wanted to go over and drive the vendor away, but he remembered that he would have to accompany the head of the family to Chenliu Wu Mansion later, and out of the idea that more things were better than less, he didn't bother to care about the vendor's affairs.
"Zhang Kai, you take someone to the quasi-carriage, Wang Qi, you take the treasury to get some door-to-door gifts, and Li Si, you go to the back street to greet dozens of doormen. Later, I will go to Wu Mansion, and you will accompany me on a trip. Li Yong tidied up the clothes on his body and walked out of the door to command the dozen or so guests standing outside the door. His mansion is luxuriously decorated, but the living area is not wide, unlike the old families such as the Wu family and the Wei family, who have also built several prosperous plots of land into their own private land in this Chen Liucheng, where every inch of land is valuable. Most of Li Yong's doormen lived in the dilapidated street behind the mansion, and they were only summoned when they were needed.
Seeing Li Yong arrogantly assigning tasks there, the jujube seller not far away sneered and threw away the jujube in his hand, and slowly walked towards Li Yong with a small cart.
"Yo, what a big date. The seller of dates, I want all your dates, so let's pay a price. Li Yong, who didn't sleep well all night yesterday, was suffering from a bitter mouth at this time. Seeing that the dates after the autumn were big and red, he couldn't help but salivate, and pretended to be bold and asked the jujube seller to pay a price, but in his heart, he thought that no matter what price the jujube seller offered, he would reward him with a few old punches when his group of customers came back, and directly put the car of jujubes into the house.
"My dates were all planted by Uncle Liu, and you thief still want to eat the dates he planted after sending someone to kill him? Pay with your life! ”
The jujube seller's cold words made Li Yongru fall into the ice cave, and just as he wanted to turn around and flee to the house, he was choked by the back of his neck with a big hand of a pu fan. Then Li Yong felt a chill in his heart, and when he looked down, he found that the blade of a pig-killing knife had pierced his chest from behind, and the fishy sweet blood slid down the corners of his mouth, and he only had time to let out a muffled scream, like a puddle of rotten meat falling into the arms of the jujube seller.
