Chapter Eighty-Three: The Big Case

(The recommendation list is too low, please recommend it!) )

In the evening, the old messenger entered the alley with a burden, and when he saw that the courtyard door was still locked, he felt the key and opened the door.

When I went in, I saw that in the group of four, the monk was meditating cross-legged; The big black man, holding the grinding disc in the courtyard to exercise his arms, was looking at him fiercely at the moment.

"What about the other two?" Before the old messenger could speak, he heard the door behind him, turned his head and saw a third person, Chen Ke. Chen Ke was a whole head taller than him, and he was very oppressive.

"There's also a brother who is a monkey and can't stay at home." Chen Ke said: "The old man doesn't ignore him. ”

"It's really careful." The old messenger muttered with a thick Hunan accent and entered the house. He has lived a long time, how can he not see that Chen Ke is guarding against being betrayed by himself?

"Old man forgive us, we don't mean anything else, it's just a frightened bird." Chen Ke hugged his fists to apologize: "I was happy to visit relatives, but who knew that such a change would happen." ”

"Alas, it's no wonder that whoever suffers this kind of disaster has to be shocked." The old man was fifty miles away, and his face was yellow and thin. He took off the hat on his head, put his burden on the table, and picked up the teapot to pour a belly of herbal tea.

After he finished drinking the water, Chen Ke asked, "I haven't asked the old man for his surname." ”

"The little old man's name is Wang Jingui, but unfortunately it is not expensive at all." The old messenger grinned and said, "The little brother is the San Lang of Chen Daling's family?" ”

"How did my husband know?"

"Haha, Da Ling has been talking about the four of you brothers all day long," Wang Jingui stroked all his beards and said with a smile: "Although I haven't seen it, your appearance is vivid in the eyes of the old man." The big black guy outside must be Gorou. ”

"Not bad...... Chen Ke said with a gloomy face: "Uncle, what did my father do?" ”

"Alas, it's a big deal to lose your head," Wang Jingui also said gloomily: "Ten days ago, a trip to Shaoguan was robbed by thieves. None of the civil officials who escorted the transport, except for Chen Daling, the chief official, came back. After a pause, he said: "It turned out that not long after departure, Chen Daling was hit by miasma, and everyone was afraid that he would be in danger of entering the mountain, so they left him in the post station to recuperate. As a result, Da Ling escaped with his life, and was carried back to Hengyang by the people and officers and soldiers who fled back. ”

"As soon as he arrived in Hengyang, Da Ling was imprisoned by the people of the Law Division, saying that he was suspected of colluding with bandits and reported to those bandits." Wang Jingui sighed and said: "It is said that the Criminal Division has already prepared the death penalty, and it will be submitted to the capital for execution." ”

"......" Chen Ke didn't say anything for a long time, but he didn't expect Chen Xiliang to get into such a big trouble. After a long time, he raised his head and said word by word: "My father will never do such a thing!" ”

"Of course the old man believes it, otherwise he wouldn't let you come to my house." Wang Jingui sighed and said: "Not only I don't believe it, but in our county government, everyone who understands the Great Order knows that this is nonsense. It's a pity that we're a fart, and the people in the Criminal Division don't pay attention to it at all. Said with some shame: "I also said, I also said that whoever intercedes with him is a ...... of the same party."

"Ridiculous!" Chen Ke slapped the already shaky table and directly smashed it apart: "I'll go to the government tomorrow to ask, what evidence do they have to convict my father!" ”

"Hey, master, you're still really a violent temper," Wang Jingui looked at the old man, his movements were not slow at all, and before the table collapsed, he actually caught the teapot with one hand and carried the burden with the other and said: "In this chaotic situation, who will tell you the evidence." Putting the object in his hand on the empty chair, he continued to persuade: "Although our Great Song Dynasty is not prosperous, the government will take you for interrogation for a few days, and ensure that you are not a human being, a ghost or a ghost." ”

"You're right, I'm so confused and hit the door, it's useless, but I'll be completely passive." Chen Ke frowned and paced around the room: "I have to understand the ins and outs first." ”

He paced the circle while pondering, and when Wang Jingui was almost stunned, he stood still and asked, "How many people are in that baggage team?" ”

"More than 700 people, more than 400 officers and soldiers." Wang Jingui said.

"So many people can still be robbed?" Chen Ke frowned and said, "Are your bandits here very arrogant?" ”

"No, from Hengyang to Chenzhou and then to Shaoguan, it is the official road to Guangnan East Road. Although there are many mountain roads, over the years, I have only heard of a traveling person who has been robbed, but no one dares to rob the government. Wang Jingui shook his head and said: "But at that time, at this time, now the army is in chaos, and there will be robbers who take advantage of the fire to rob if they can't keep it." ”

"Were there any famous bandits before?" Chen Ke asked again.

"No, I haven't heard of it." Wang Jingui shook his head and said, "Why did San Lang ask this? ”

"This deal is not something that a small group of bandits can do." Chen Ke said in a deep voice: "At least a gang of more than 1,000 people dares to do this job." ”

"Hmm." Wang Jingui nodded and said: "I heard from the people who came back that there were bandits all over the mountains, so they were scared to drop their baggage and run away. ”

"From the fall of Yongzhou to now, it has only been two months. Even if there are new gangsters coming out in the past two months, they don't have this strength. ”

"There's some truth to what you're saying." Wang Jingui pinched his beard and said, "This powerful gang seems to have appeared out of thin air. ”

"There is another question," Chen Ke said again, "what about the losses of the people and the officers and soldiers?" ”

"I was shot a few at the beginning, and most of them ran back with all their beards and tails." Wang Jingui sighed and said: "If you look at the wind, you will flee, and Liangguang will be lost like this." ”

"How many civil escorts are there?" Chen Ke asked.

"Not counting the big order, there are still five, and they haven't come back." Wang Jingui sighed and said, "But this is normal, the officials are all in the car." As soon as the robbers put the rolling stones down, the car was blocked on the mountain road; As soon as the arrows were fired, the people and the officials and soldiers scattered in a hurry, didn't they leave the officials behind? ”

"Then it shouldn't be that no one will come back." Chen Ke shook his head and said, "It's really unreasonable. ”

"And what do you say is going on?" Wang Jingui scratched his head.

"I don't know......" Chen Ke shook his head.

"Feelings have been in vain for half a day of spitting." Wang Jingui suddenly deflated and said: "Don't talk about it, eat and eat, the rice I bought should be cold." As he spoke, he spread out the burden, revealing six lotus leaf bags and said: "In this situation, I can't entertain you with big fish and meat, so let's make do with my stomach." ”

"Thank you, sir." Chen Ke took out a dime of silver from his sleeve and said, "I can't let you break the bank." ”

Although the prices in the city are expensive, a dime of silver can still buy dozens of such purse rice, Wang Jingui hurriedly shook his head and said: "The son of the Daling family is here, and the old man should entertain him." ”

"I took out the money and never confiscated it back to the habit." Chen Ke shook his head and said, "Take it." ”

"Hey." Wang Jingui put it away happily and grinned: "Da Ling is really right, San Lang is generous." ”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Wang Laohan left a poached rice, and the rest were carried to the courtyard by Chen Ke. It was already dark outside at this time, and Chen Ke shook towards the Xuanyu monk and said, "Don't eat for lunch?" "From yesterday noon to now, the little monk hasn't eaten a bite.

Although he was dizzy from hunger, Xuanyu still shook his head very firmly and said, "Amitabha, brother, I don't eat." ”

Chen Ke still threw him a purse rice and said, "Take it and eat it tomorrow morning." He gave Gorou another and said, "Go and send it to your monkey brother." ”

Gorou nodded, got up and walked out of the courtyard.

Chen Ke squatted on the stone bench in the courtyard, unfolded a lotus leaf, and pinched the rice with his hand and sent it to his mouth, while falling into hard thought.

The current situation is really difficult. With a few young people who have no power, no power, no support and no support, how to save their father Chen Xiliang? How to prove his innocence, how to convince those grown-ups...... It's like a tiger eating the sky, and it has no clue at all.

"Annoying......" Chen Ke threw the half-eaten poached rice out of the distance, holding his head in distress and said: "Who can I find a way!" ”

After a while, I heard a voice say: "Amitabha, the bell must be tied to the bell......

Chen Ke raised his head in surprise, looked at the little monk Xuanyu and said, "What did you say?" ”

"Brother, I said that the bell must be tied to the bell." Xuanyu repeated, afraid that he wouldn't understand, and explained: "One day, the Dharma Eye Zen Master asked the public: 'Who can solve the golden bell under the tiger?' 'There is no way to do it. Master Taiqin was suitable, and the Dharma Eye raised the words before asking, and Taiqin said: "The one who is connected can understand it." ’”

"Oh, oh my mother, little monk!" Chen Ke understood at once, and he couldn't wait to kiss him twice on his bald head, and praised wildly: "You are a real person who doesn't show your face!" ”

"Brother is a fan of the authorities." Xuanyu said modestly: "The little monk is a bystander. ”

"It's too modest......" Chen Ke said and suddenly said in a daze: "No, I didn't say anything, how do you know everything?" ”

"The little monk has been cultivating since childhood," Xuanyu said honestly, "and his ears are sharper than ordinary people." ”

"So what we said in the house." Chen Ke opened his mouth wide and said, "Did you hear everything?" ”

"Ten of the ** ......" Xuanyu said.

"Awesome!" The voice of him and Wang Jingui talking was already very small, and the little monk could still listen to it, Chen Ke was amazed, and couldn't help but wonder: "So, what I said with your brother monkey on the boat, did you hear it?" "It's those kidnapped little monks who are 'vulgar'.

"Amitabha," Xuanyu said with his hands folded, "Those who should have listened listened, and those who shouldn't have listened didn't." ”

"Hey......" Chen Ke couldn't help laughing and scolded: "You monk, it turns out that you also seem to be loyal!" ”

"I learned it all from my brother." Xuanyu squinted and smiled, and put the hat on her head.
