Chapter Twenty-Six: The Mysterious Old Man

"Do you want to go now?" Li Lei was already hungry and tired after playing all morning, and now seeing that Song Anping had arranged another task for him, he said with some dissatisfaction: "I just finished participating in the competition, and I haven't eaten yet?" ”

"Brother Li, let's listen to Brother Song's arrangement," Ke Rong comforted Li Lei and assured Song Anping: "Brother Song, don't worry!" We'll find him. ”

After Ke Rong finished speaking, he pulled Li Lei, who was reluctant, and walked away.

"Hey, you wait," Li Lei was pulled by Ke Rong and asked a little impatiently, "Do you know how to find him?" ”

"I don't know."

"And what else did you promise?"

"Although I'm not familiar with Jiankang Mansion, and I haven't thought of any good way, but as long as we really want to find it, we will definitely be able to find it," Ke Rong said with a firm expression: "What's more, Brother Li, you have been in Jiankang for many years, you must be very familiar with this place, right?" ”

"Do you need to talk about that? Haha," as soon as Li Lei heard the praise of others, he began to become proud, "I'll take you to see and see my brother's prestige in Jiankang Mansion." ”

"Brother Li Lei, Brother Ke Rong, go find someone, we have to go back first, drink wine and eat meat!" Haha," Qin Jinpeng shouted and laughed proudly from behind Ke Rong and Li Lei, which made Li Lei depressed in his heart.

"Hua Yi and Qin Jinpeng, two brothers," After Li Lei and Ke Rong left, Song Anping instructed Hua Yi and Qin Jinpeng: "You go to follow Lu Yun, and be sure to find out who he is before dark." ”

Hearing Song Anping's order, Qin Jinpeng's smug face sank instantly, and at this time, he seemed to hear Li Lei's voice cracking his big mouth and sarcastically mocking himself, "How is it?" Aren't you going to drink wine and eat meat, big man? ”

"Brother Song rest assured," Hua Yi played with the arrow in his hand and said excitedly: "I finally found a prey that is a little challenging!" ”

After Hua Yi finished speaking, he took Qin Jinpeng, who was reluctant, and disappeared on the other side of the alley.

After Song Anping finished arranging these things, he breathed a sigh of relief and walked home alone.

When Song Anping just turned a corner, Wang Qi suddenly came out of the side of the road and ran to Song Anping, which really startled the absent-minded Song Anping.

"Brother Song, how is today's game?" Wang Qi ran over with great interest and asked Song Anping with great interest, "Is there anything interesting?" Tell me about it. ”

There are a lot of interesting things, come to my house and tell you slowly," Song Anping looked at Wang Qi's innocent bright smile, and his mood suddenly brightened a lot.

Because of the martial arts competition, there are a lot of people coming and going on the street. The vendors on the street are also shouting their own products, and the whole street is very noisy.

Song Anping and Wang Qi walked on the street, crowded in the crowd on the street, at this time, the crowd in front of them was in chaos, and then an old man with gray hair, shabby clothes, and extremely embarrassed was holding something in his arms, squeezing through the crowd, stumbling forward, the old man was panicked, and he happened to collide with Wang Qi.

Wang Qi instinctively grabbed the old man's collar, and was about to have a seizure, but when he saw the old man frightened, he pointed in the direction he ran over.

Wang Qi followed the old man's finger and looked over, only to see four big men, holding sharp blades, running over violently, surrounding Song Anping, Wang Qi and the old man in the middle.

"Are you alright?" After Song Anping asked Wang Qi with concern, he blocked Wang Qi and the old man behind his back, and shouted to those big men: "Who are you?" Dare to make trouble in the capital. ”

"It doesn't matter who we are, as long as you hand over the old man to us, everything will be fine, otherwise" A fierce-looking, tall man on the opposite side stretched his tone on the last word and shook the big knife in his hand meaningfully.

"They're going to kill me," the old man shouted nervously hysterically.

"Don't worry, I won't let them hurt you in the slightest," Song Anping turned his face, and after saying these comforting words to the old man, he shouted to the big man opposite: "I am Song Anping, the Taifu of the imperial court, who dares to make a mistake." ”

When he heard that Song Anping was an official of the imperial court, the old man was a little relieved, and looked at Song Anping again, and sure enough, he was wearing an official uniform.

"Kill them," the four men rushed forward with the big man's big swords. Obviously, they were not interested in the name of the imperial court officials and Song Anping.

Song Anping dealt with the attacks of the four people on the one hand, but in his heart he was very different from the boldness of these people.

Dare to fight against the imperial court officials in broad daylight, it can be described as very bold! Song Anping thought like this, and was even more curious about the embarrassed old man in front of him, there must be something hidden in it to be able to make these people work so hard.

Although Song Anping was alone facing four big men with big knives, but with his means, it seemed very easy, he kicked away one of them, and snatched the big knife from his hand, easily dealing with the remaining three people.

The three people also seemed to understand that the person in front of him was not so easy to deal with, they exchanged glances with each other, two big men entangled Song Anping, and the other ran to snatch the old man.

Song Anping secretly screamed that it was not good, and he was going to support, but at this time, with a sound of "bang," the big man who went to grab the old man fell heavily to the ground, and he fainted after struggling a few times.

"Who wants my kick," Wang Qi put his hands on his waist, slowly retracted, and just kicked the big man's right foot.

The two big men who entangled Song Anping saw that the situation was wrong, so they picked up the two people who fell to the ground and fled in a panic.

Song Anping didn't pursue them either, he turned his face to the old man and said kindly: "Old man, why are they chasing and killing you?" ”

"Are you really an official of the imperial court?" The old man looked at Song Anping's attire again, and asked again very cautiously.

Song Anping nodded silently.

"This lord," the old man whispered in Song Anping's ear after confirming Song Anping's identity: "I have urgent matters to tell the emperor, how about you please meet me for me?" ”

Hearing this, Song Anping's face suddenly became solemn, he stared at the old man in front of him in disbelief, looking at the old man's serious appearance, Song Anping also understood the urgency of the matter, but Song Anping was still a little disagreeable.

"Old man," Song Anping looked at the old man's outfit and said, "With your current appearance, it is not suitable to meet the emperor, so let's go to the lower mansion first, wash up first, and discuss in detail." ”

The old man hugged the things in his arms tightly, and after looking at his clothes, he smiled a little bitterly in embarrassment, and then nodded helplessly in agreement.

Song Anping and Wang Qi protected the old man and rushed to the Song Mansion, and they didn't notice that one of the four big men who had fought with them just now, quietly followed them to the gate of the Song Mansion, and watched Song Anping and the three of them enter the Song Mansion before leaving in a hurry.
