Chapter 65: The Old Army's Inn (I)
Generally speaking, the night fastfew begins at 9 p.m.
However, due to the extraordinary period, only half of the time has passed, and the night ban in Changping City has already begun to be enforced.
If you convert it to the time of the afterlife, it is only about eight o'clock at this moment.
But when Yang Shouwen and Yang Rui walked out of the Fanrenli Fang Gate, the street was deserted, and there was not a single pedestrian in sight.
"Are Da Lang and Ji Lang going out?"
The door of Fanrenli Fang was closed, and when Yang Shouwen and the two were about to go out, they were stopped by Wuhou.
"Now that the night curfew has begun, if you don't have a pass waist card, it's better for you two not to go out. It's not a big deal to walk around the house, and my brothers can ignore it. But if you go out of the fangmen, it will be very troublesome to be met by the patrol soldiers. ”
That Wuhou is also well-intentioned, and Yang Shouwen naturally will not treat him coldly.
took out the waist card that the Song family gave him and handed it to Wu Hou's hand, "We have a pass waist card, and we are going to go out to help my father do something." ”
"Oh, it turned out to be the county lieutenant's order."
Wu Hou checked the waist card, and after confirming that it was correct, he opened the door.
"The two Langjun should be careful when they go out, it's not been quiet outside recently. If you are in trouble, just greet the people. ”
In any case, Wuhou can also be regarded as Yang Chenglie's subordinate.
Here we need to explain the nature of Wuhou, similar to the film police in later generations. In general, Wuhou belongs to Minzhuang and is mainly responsible for guarding and patrolling. In each market, there is a Wuhou shop, and several Wuhou are arranged to be on duty.
Yang Shouwen smiled and thanked those people, and then walked out of the workshop with Yang Rui.
"Big brother, where are we going to find out the news?"
As soon as he arrived on the street, Yang Rui became excited, looking at Yang Shouwen with a look of eagerness.
Yang Shouwen said: "Let's go to the Old Army Inn." ”
"The Old Army Inn?"
When Yang Rui heard this, he seemed to have blown up his hair, and immediately jumped up, "Big brother, you are crazy!" Go to the Old Army Inn at this time? ”
"Can't you go?"
"You forget, my dad copied the old army inn before, and almost killed the old army and his family.
Let's go to the old army inn now, won't we fall into the net? Don't be unheard of by then, and end up in a commotion. ”
"Are you scared?"
"I'm afraid?" Yang Rui stiffened his neck, "I'll be scared?" Hahaha, no kidding, I'll be afraid of Gai Laojun? ”
Yang Shouwen smiled and said nothing, only looking at Yang Rui quietly.
After Yang Rui screamed twice, he slowly lowered his head like a defeated rooster.
He said softly: "Big brother, I can't hide it, I'm really a little scared...... In the old army inn, there are many outlaws, and it is also the most chaotic area in Changping County. Don't say it's me, even if it's someone in the yamen, most of them don't want to go there if they don't have anything special...... Python Mountain Fang, a death case may occur at any time. ”
Python Mountain Fang, named after the Python Mountain outside Changping City.
Looking at Yang Rui's somewhat pale face, Yang Shouwen said softly: "If you are afraid, it is too late to go back now." ”
"How can that be!"
Yang Rui raised his head, tried to puff up his chest and said, "A-Niang asked me to accompany you, if you see me go back, you will definitely scold me to death." ”
Yang Shouwen laughed and said softly: "Let's go, it'll be fine." ”
"But ......"
"Although Python Mountain Fang is a little chaotic, it is indeed the most well-informed place.
The old army inn may be an outlaw, but Gai Lao Jun is a smart person, and he will never dare to make any extraneous branches at this time. ”
After speaking, Yang Shouwen strode away.
Yang Rui muttered twice, although he was a little reluctant, but in the end he followed behind Yang Shouwen.
The two walked all the way, and on the way they also met a team of patrol soldiers.
This time, Yang Shouwen had a pass waist card, so he didn't jump into the ditch to hide like last time. After checking his waist card, Min Zhuang told them to be careful on the road, and then let the two brothers leave.
"Big brother, you said that Murong Xuanwei is a good military envoy, why do you want to surrender and sob?"
"Big brother? Big brother? ”
Yang Rui shouted twice before Yang Shouwen came back to his senses.
It's just that there was a hint of understanding in his eyes, and he asked in a deep voice: "Erlang, do you remember that map?" ”
"What map?"
"Is that the Flying Fox map?"
Yang Rui thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Did the eldest brother say the map found from Jasmine's pair of laundry mallets?" ”
"Exactly!"
"Of course I do."
"And you remember, the numbers on it?"
Yang Rui scratched his head, revealing a look of distress.
He thought for a moment and said softly, "I remember a few...... 810/826/828…… There are a lot of numbers on it, I really can't remember them completely, I only remember these few numbers. Big brother, what did you find? Why don't you talk about it? ”
Yang Shouwen shook his head and said in a deep voice: "I'm not sure yet, when I go back, I have to discuss with Daddy." ”
"Can I participate?"
Yang Rui's eyes showed a hint of expectation.
Yang Shouwen smiled and rubbed his head gently, "Nonsense, of course you want to participate, you are the key person." ”
"Really?"
"Of course!"
In fact, since the incident with Gai Jiayun, Yang Rui's state has not been very good. Yang Shouwen could feel that when he encountered something, he would seem to be unconfident and even want to retreat.
It's no wonder that Yang Rui, after all, is only thirteen years old.
When encountering this kind of thing, no matter how smart he is, he will be affected.
Yang Shouwen knew that in this case, he had to try to increase Yang Rui's confidence and let him slowly regain his self-confidence.
Seeing that Yang Rui's spirit had improved a lot, Yang Shouwen was also very happy.
Anyway, he and Yang Rui are now brothers. Fathers and sons go into battle, fight tigers and brothers. If you want to gain a firm foothold in this era in the future, it is impossible to succeed by relying on him alone, and you must have someone who can be trusted by your side.
And Yang Rui is undoubtedly an excellent choice.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Python Mountain Fang is located in the northeast corner of Changping County, with a large area.
This is also a slum area in Changping, and the law and order is very chaotic. Most of the ruffians in Changping County came from Python Mountain Fang. And the most deterrent regiment leaders in Changping also lived in Python Mountain Fang and obeyed the dispatch of the old army.
The walls of the Python Mountain Workshop are very low, made of rammed earth, and they are not even more than one person high.
On the walls, there are messy weeds and branches, and there is a hint of decay in the night.
Yang Shouwen knocked on the door, took out the pass waist card, and handed it to the Wuhou on duty. Wuhou didn't check it carefully, and just glanced at it and put Yang Shouwen and Yang Rui in.
"If Da Lang and Erlang have nothing to do, they should leave quickly."
"Oh?"
Wu Hou said softly: "Recently, there has been some chaos here, and several regiment leaders seem to want to find trouble with the old army, and there are often fights. If it's okay, don't hang around here. If you want to have fun, don't come lately. ”
Wu Hou had already made it very clear, and Yang Shouwen nodded and thanked him.
Before leaving, he stuffed a string of Kaiyuan Tongbao in Wuhou's hand, and he was also happy that the two Wuhou smiled.
This is Python Mountain Fang, which is chaotic and poor.
Rich people, Wuhou dare not provoke; If you don't have money, Wuhou can't squeeze out oil and water.
If you get a bunch all of a sudden, if you divide it equally, the two Wuhou can each have forty or fifty yuan, but it is a lot of income.
"Da Lang, don't you have any weapons for self-defense?"
"Oh...... When I came out, I was worried that I would be interrogated by the patrol soldiers, so I didn't carry it. ”
The Wuhou glanced at each other, and one of them turned around and entered the Wuhou shop, and after a while, he came out again, holding two Tang knives in his hands.
"Walking over here, if you don't have a weapon to defend yourself, you don't know what will happen."
As the other Wuhou spoke, he also took out a whistle from his body and handed it to Yang Shouwen, "If you encounter that trouble, the two Lang Jun can blow the whistle, and the two of us will come as soon as possible." Although the two of us are nothing, in Python Mountain Fang, everyone has to give some face. Again, get done and get out of here as soon as possible. ”
Yang Shouwen nodded, thanked the two again, and walked away with his knife.
But in this way, Yang Rui was even more nervous.
He carried a knife and followed closely by Yang Shouwen's side, saying as he walked: "Big brother, if there is no big event, let's come back tomorrow." ”
"What are you afraid of, just follow me."
Yang Shouwen glared at Yang Rui and walked in front with his head held high.
