Chapter 33: Hongfu Inn (I)

That night, Yang Shouwen did not return to the village.

However, out of protection for the Yang family and the young lady, he asked Yang Rui to take Yang Jasmine out of the county and go to the village at the foot of Hugu Mountain.

"Where's your home?"

At dinner, Qingnu was a little weird, but Yang Shouwen didn't take it to heart.

In his mind, the home at the foot of Tiger Valley Mountain is his real home! As for the Yang Mansion in the county seat, which is much larger than the home in Hugu Mountain, it actually doesn't have very deep feelings. Of course, the reason why he dared to let Yang Jasmine leave, Yang Shouwen also had confidence in his heart. It is now heavily guarded, and it is said that the county commander Wang He even mobilized the people to patrol the city. As long as you are a little sensible, you will not run out to cause trouble at this time.

"Qingnu, shut up."

Song was dissatisfied and scolded, Yang Qingnu rolled his eyes, and did not continue to be sarcastic.

Yang Shouwen stood up, "A-Niang, I'm full." ”

"Full?" Song was a little worried: "But it's not appetizing? Your father said, "Son, you eat a lot." ”

"Hehe, Auntie doesn't have to worry too much, the food is delicious, but I still have something to discuss with Daddy."

Song glared at Yang Qingnu fiercely, and persuaded him two more words, seeing that Yang Shouwen really didn't eat it, he stopped persuading.

"By the way, A-Niang took the young slave to rest in Daddy's room tonight, which is also convenient to take care of."

"What about you?"

Yang Shouwen smiled and did not answer.

Although Song has never read a book, he is not a lady, and he knows that it is not good to ask again.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Nightfall.

Changping County has returned to calm, but the tense atmosphere that permeates the sky over Changping County has not weakened in the slightest.

Almost every half hour, there will be a marquis patrolling the streets.

Outside the market, every other hour, there are people patrolling. All the houses were closed and locked early. The incident that happened in the county government in the early hours of this morning has spread, and the people of Changping have felt an inexplicable fear.

Even the county government dared to attack, and those people were no longer considered assassins, but thugs.

This kind of person is by no means something that those small people dare to provoke. Even the ruffians in the joints received a message from the group leaders, telling them to be honest. At such times, if anyone dares to come out and cause trouble, they will inevitably be severely punished.

From the city gate, the sound of street drums was heard.

Yang Shouwen opened his eyes suddenly, turned over from the couch and got off the ground, and reached out to pick up the Broken Dragon Treasure Knife placed next to the pillow.

This knife has always been in the hands of Yang Chenglie before. Today, Yang Shouwen came without a weapon, and Yang Chenglie was injured again, so the Broken Dragon Treasure Knife returned to Yang Shouwen's hands. He slung the knife on his back and listened, only to hear the sound of snoring from next door. It's already time to pass, and presumably Yang Chenglie's family has rested.

He walked to the window, pushed it open, and jumped out.

The entire Yang Mansion was shrouded in a pitch-black night. There was a faint mist in the courtyard, which made Yang Shouwen feel happy.

The moon is dark and kills the savages, and the wind is high and the sky is set on fire.

This weather is just right for action, and God help me!

Gai Jiayun sent a message to Yang Rui, and he found a group of strangers in the city, with strange whereabouts and haunting.

This group of people lives in the Hongfu Inn in Heping Fang. According to Gai Jiayun, those people arrived in Changping about seven days ago. They made a generous move, chartered an independent courtyard, and usually let the people of the inn send them to the people for dinner.

Yang Shouwen didn't know if these people were the people he was looking for.

However, according to Gai Jiayun, they are indeed very suspicious. The most important thing is that the time when this group appeared was precisely around the time of the first murder. The timing is very coincidental, and people will inevitably have doubts in their hearts.

However, Yang Shouwen didn't plan to take Yang Rui on an adventure.

Although Yang Rui has learned a few tricks from his father and scares ordinary people, if he really wants to meet a master, he will definitely be in danger.

If the people from the Hongfu Inn are the ones who attacked the county government, taking Yang Rui is a burden.

It is precisely for this reason that Yang Shouwen asked Yang Rui to accompany Yang Jasmine to Hugu Mountain.

Yang Shouwen walked out of the room, looked left and right, and after making sure that there was no one, the cat's waist trotted all the way to the backyard wall. He ran two steps, stepped up, hit the wall with both hands, and his body flew up suddenly, and after crossing the wall, he fell lightly to the ground. The courtyard wall of the backyard of Yang's Mansion is connected with Fang City. Yang Shouwen climbed over the wall and was already on the street outside the market. On the street, there was no sign of people, only the sound of weapons colliding with each other when the people patrolled faintly from a distance, and there should be some distance.

Calculating the time, Yang Shouwen immediately stuck to the wall of Fang City, and the cat's waist ran.

During the day, he had already asked Yang Rui to take him to Heping Fang, and he had also figured out the location of the Hongfu Inn.

At this moment, he was familiar with the road, and under the cover of night and fog, he evaded two groups of people, and arrived outside the Peace Square.

This peace square is located in the south of Changping.

It is named after the Peace Temple in Fang City, and it is also one of the most prosperous areas in Changping.

Seeing that there was no one left and right, Yang Shouwen hit the wall and jumped up suddenly. The area of Heping Square is twice that of Fanrenli. There are houses connected here, streets and many dark alleys. This is the business district of Changping, and it is also the most chaotic place in Changping. When the whole Changping is silent, the inside of the Peace Square is brightly lit, and the streets are more people coming and going, as if forming two worlds with the outside of the square, which feels very weird.

This was also a very common phenomenon in the Tang Dynasty.

In the city, martial law is imposed outside the city, and business is open in the city, and they do not interfere with each other.

As long as you don't go out of the square and wander around the street outside, there will be no problems in the square, especially in the business district.

Of course, if you get caught on the street outside the square...... Hehe, I'm so sorry, I can only wronged you first.

Yang Shouwen jumped down from the wall, straightened his clothes, and walked into the street.

There are many shops on both sides, and the flags of the liquor shops are shaking.

The sound of loud laughter came from the restaurant, accompanied by the sound of silk and bamboo, as if entering a city that never sleeps.

"Guests, if you want to come and sit down, we have the best wine in Changping here."

“……”

Yang Shouwen dodged the enthusiastic orchid and walked forward.

At the end of this street, there is a three-storey restaurant. In front of the door of the restaurant, there is a vermilion plaque hanging on it, which reads 'Hongfu Inn'.

Yang Shouwen stopped and stood at the entrance of the alley across the street.

He watched silently for a while, then suddenly plunged into an alley across from him. Walking down the alley, I saw a small door. During the day, he and Yang Rui came to investigate, and this small door was the side door of Hongfu Inn.

Seeing that there was no one left and right, Yang Shouwen walked to the door, flipped his wrist, and slipped a dagger from his sleeve.

Through the crack in the door, he picked the latch, reached out and pushed the door open a crack, and then dodged behind the door.

Hongfu Inn is a very famous inn in Changping. From the outside, it seems to be quite ordinary. But after entering, you will see the pavilions and pavilions inside, and there are all kinds of rockery ponds. The whole yard is roughly divided into three parts. The restaurant in front is for people to eat and drink, and a pavilion in the middle is for people to enjoy and play. And in the back, there are the superior rooms, similar to the villa area of later generations. Each villa has a separate yard and is very quiet.

"Jiasan!"

Yang Shouwen memorized the house number provided by Gai Jiayun, and walked along the wet path, stopping to check the sect from time to time.

No. 3, at the very back of the Hongfu Inn.

It is a small independent courtyard with more than a dozen rooms for people to live in.

At the entrance of the small courtyard, there is a big tree. However, after autumn, the leaves have begun to wither and no longer be gloomy.

Yang Shouwen looked at his surroundings again, and suddenly rushed out of the shadows, like a civet cat, and climbed onto the tree. He hid behind the thick trunk of a tree and peered into the courtyard, but he couldn't help but be stunned by what he saw.

Court A 3 is 30 meters long and about 40 meters wide, and contains three rows of houses.

In the central courtyard, more than a dozen people in black were gathered.

They sat on the porch, surrounded by orchids. There was an arrow target in the courtyard, and a man in black stood up, walked to the edge of the porch with a bow and arrow in hand, bent his bow and arrow, and shot an arrow right on the target. The people around suddenly cheered, and on the porch facing the big tree outside the courtyard gate, a middle-aged man with a white face and black beard sat upright.
