The moment he was pushed away, the muscles of the little carpenter's body suddenly tightened, and his eyes were wide open, like a tiger out of the cage, as if he wanted to choose someone to devour.

He is a practitioner, when he was a child, he once followed the Miao family swordsman Xiong Cao in Qianyang to learn the fierce knife technique all the way, not to mention anything else, he is still good at dealing with people like Dayong.

But he didn't make a move after all, but stood still.

Learning knives from the swordsman Xiong Cao, it was his master Zhang Luo, who strengthened his body and was not bullied, but at the same time, his master also set a rule with him, that is, practicing knives and practicing knives, but don't fight with others, he has a short life, if he fights with others, he will have to eat a lawsuit, and even cut off someone's head.

As long as he is in the day, the little carpenter cannot do anything with people.

Otherwise, they will be driven out of the division.

The little carpenter has always kept this in mind, so not only will he not touch anyone, but he has never told anyone about the knife.

He held back, but he couldn't hold back his anger, and said to Na Dayong: "The officials didn't say that my master was a murderer, why do you conclude so much?" ”

Dayong said disdainfully: "I don't quarrel with your child, the master said, if you want to stay here, stay here, but the Liu family doesn't care; If you don't want to stay here, go out, but you can't leave Sandaokan Town, otherwise you will be seen as complicit in the murderer. ”

He led people to snatch the money and walked away, and the little carpenter's fist clenched so loudly that he did not resist after all.

Since he was a child, the master taught him a truth, that is, "a strong dragon does not suppress the head snake", not to mention the duckweed that they eat by hand.

But that money is Master's money.

And the little carpenter couldn't figure it out, they helped the Liu family to settle the matter, and Zhang Luo built a new house, everything was harmonious, and Master Liu was also polite to his master, why did he suddenly change his face?

Could it be that the Liu family really thinks that the two people who died were killed by his master?

He was full of doubts and couldn't figure it out, and at this moment, the door of the shed was pushed open, and several old and weak women and children with filial piety blocked the door, pointing to the little carpenter, and scolded angrily: "A murderer must not die well." ”

"Where is your master? Call him out! ”

"You must know where your master is, tell him to come out to pay for his life!"

……

Those women and children naturally couldn't do anything to the little carpenter with all their strength, but they were crying, scolding, and shrew-like behavior, so that the little carpenter couldn't face it.

He knew that he couldn't stay any longer, so he had to pack up his things and leave, but when he went out with a huge wooden box on his back, the two Liu family members guarding the door outside stopped him, pointed to the wooden box, and didn't let him take it away. ”

The little carpenter was full of grievances, but the scolding of the family members next to him made him unable to stay for a second, so he had to rummage through two pieces of clothing, and then left in disgrace.

Fortunately, his carving knife is close to him, and he finally has a guy to eat.

The little carpenter left the construction site in a gloomy manner, and looked back to find that the villagers who had worked together were pointing at him, some of them full of sympathy, while others showed a sarcastic and gloating smile, which made him sad.

How so?

The things that worked were basically left in the construction site, and the master was nowhere to be found, and the little carpenter had nowhere to go, even if he went out of the construction site, he did not go far, but squatted under the locust tree in the distance.

After being bullied, he was full of dissatisfaction in his heart, and his face was also very ugly, looking at the construction site over there with a gloomy face, thinking about what would happen next.

He felt that he was being kicked out, and many things behind him had to be brave enough to sow discord behind his back.

And the reason why Dayong is like this is because he likes Miss Xiaoya of the Liu family.

But Miss Xiaoya was very interested in him.

It's jealousy.

The little carpenter Gan 13 thought, maybe Master Liu didn't know about this matter, if he knew, would he help to administer justice?

The old man of the Liu family looks so kind, generous, and admires his craftsmanship very much.

But what if you're wrong?

Although he is used to running on the dock all the year round and knows a lot more than his peers, generally speaking, his master is to deal with it, and he doesn't need him to show up, and he doesn't need him to decide things, and now that his master is gone, and he is in trouble again, he is a little at a loss for a while.

He squatted under the locust tree until noon, hungry and thirsty, and at this moment, footsteps came from behind him, and then someone called him: "Little brother Gan, little brother Gan." ”

The little carpenter turned around and saw that the person who came was Wu Banxian, who was a fairy and a smile.

Seeing that he was wearing a long robe and blue shirt, a scarf and a hat, carrying a burden, and carrying a flag on his shoulder, the little carpenter hurriedly got up and saluted, and Wu Banxian supported him, and then asked with concern: "I have been patrolling the countryside in the past few days, and I just came back, and I heard about your master's affairs, and I didn't return home, so I rushed over - by the way, what's wrong with you?" ”

Hearing Wu Banxian's warm words of care, the little carpenter was full of grievances, and he couldn't stop his tears from dripping, and now he also told the cause and effect of the matter, and he was driven out of the Liu family and took the money.

Wu Banxian listened, blew his beard and glared, and scolded bitterly: "What a bunch of fools, my brother Lu is upright, how could he do such a thing?" Someone must have framed you......"

He scolded a few words and said to the little carpenter: "You must be hungry too, go to my place to rest, and I will go to Master Liu to reason with me when I turn back." ”

When the little carpenter heard this, he was grateful and said yes.

The two returned to Wu Banxian's residence, which is in the lower reaches of Zhangmu Creek, a thatched cottage not far from Sandaokan, the yard is very large, different from ordinary people's wooden houses, most of Wu Banxian's houses are made of bamboo, and the little carpenter is an insider in the construction.

There is also a medicine garden in the backyard of this thatched cottage.

There is another person in Wu Banxian's family, who is older than the little carpenter, and he looks stocky, at first the little carpenter thought it was Wu Banxian's apprentice, but after a while, he found out that he was a mute.

Since he is mute, he naturally can't be Wu Banxian's apprentice.

The dumb man was a good at rough work, and in a short time he made a Chinese meal, which was not rich in color, and there was no meat, green vegetables and pickles, and white rice.

The little carpenter was hungry all day, Wu Banxian asked him not to be polite, and he shook off his cheeks to eat, and Wu Banxian was obviously not very hungry, and asked the little carpenter while drinking tea next to him.

The little carpenter replied one by one, and then asked, "Sir, what is the matter with what you said about my master?" ”

Wu Banxian sighed: "Bacheng was retaliated against as you said-this matter is also related to me, if I hadn't invited your master and apprentice over, such a thing wouldn't have happened." Don't worry, I definitely won't care about this matter, after eating, I will go to Liu's house and explain it to Master Liu. “

The little carpenter hurriedly thanked him.

Wu Banxian did what he said, after eating, washed his hands and rinsed his mouth, and set off, the little carpenter wanted to follow, but he didn't allow it, saying that the Liu family should be angry now, and it was not very convenient for him to go over.

The little carpenter stayed at home, and Wu Banxian returned after dark, and he was drunk, drunk, and dumb served him to sleep, even if the little carpenter was full of questions, he had no way to ask, so he had to live in the side room of the thatched cottage.

When he woke up the next day, the little carpenter went out and saw Wu Banxian kneeling on the shrine in the hall with incense, chanting words.

He didn't dare to disturb, he watched quietly, after Wu Banxian was busy, he called him to the front of the room, and said: "Little brother, I went over yesterday and happened to meet Lin Yimin in the county, you should know his reputation, he was a fast catcher in the former Qing Dynasty, and his nickname can be called 'Xiangxi Zhanzhao', and his knowledge is extraordinary." There are many doubts about your master's case, and I will tell you your opinion and what I know, but the problem is that your master has not shown up until now, and no one knows what the situation is. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Banxian asked, "Do you know where your master's hometown is?" ”

The little carpenter said: "My master's hometown is in Heizhugou in Jingnan Road, but there are no people in my hometown. ”

Wu Banxian asked again: "Then do you know that he has other footholds?" ”

The little carpenter shook his head and said no, all these years, we have been going wherever there is a way to live, floating everywhere.

Wu Banxian asked again: "Where did all his girls marry, do you know?" ”

The little carpenter said that the eldest girl married to Ludong, the second girl married to Xichuan, and the third girl married to Guangfu, but he didn't have a good relationship with several girls, and he never contacted them, and I haven't been there.

Wu Banxian asked a few more words, a little worried, and said, "This matter is very troublesome, you have to come out of your master, otherwise it will not be clear." I told Mr. Liu about the money, and he said that the money had been distributed to the family of the deceased, and if the case had nothing to do with your master at that time, he would make it back. In this way, you stay with me these days, and wait for your master to come back......"

He took the little carpenter into custody and told him that he should tell him as soon as he had news of his master.

When Wu Banxian was in the town, he spent most of his time comforting the little carpenter, but after all, he had to eat and live, so he stayed for two days and then went to the stall again, and the little carpenter saw him leave, and after a quarter of an hour, he saw the mute man going to tending to the medicine garden in the backyard, thought about it, and followed.
