Chapter 30 Angang Courtyard

"Brother Lin, what's wrong with you?" Ah Lang saw that Lin Jing's face was pale, and he didn't know what was going on, so he said with concern.

"Brother Lang, it's not ...... It's nothing. Lin Jing tried to calm down, lowered his head, and bit his lip.

"This Qian Ah Si has long attracted the attention of Ping An Tang, they have spent a lot of money to find people from the rivers and lakes to deal with Qian Ah Si, as long as they catch him, whether they live or die, they will get a heavy reward!" Ah Lang continued.

"Brother Lang, could it be that this Qian Ah Si is the one who dropped my gold?" Lin Jing is very smart, Qian Ah Si's portrait is somewhat similar to the beard that knocked him down before, but he can't immediately connect the two together, at this time, Ah Lang told a little, he boldly guessed.

"That's right, it's him!" Ah Lang said with a smile: "Brother Lin, do you already know what I do now?"

Lin Jing pursed his lips, pondered for a moment, and said, "Brother Lang, I guess you are the person invited by Ping'an Hall to deal with Qian Ah Si. ”

"Half of the answer is right!" Ah Lang said: "First, I am not from the rivers and lakes, and second, I am not invited by the Peace Hall. To put it bluntly, I'm just a wanderer, occasionally living on bounties. ”

When Lin Jing heard this, he nodded as if he didn't understand, and suddenly something came to mind in his head, and said loudly: "Brother Lang, why didn't Qian Ah Si kill me?"

Thinking of this, Lin Jing's heart swelled with a chill.

"Haha, although this Qian Ah Si is bad, he is not stupid. Brother Lin, think about it, since he has already obtained your gold, you have no meaning to him. In that case, if he attacks you again, won't it be a surprise to tell everyone that he is in Wutong Town?" Ah Lang explained.

"Oh, I see!" Lin Jing continued: "Brother Lang, your martial arts are better than Qian Asi, which one is better? It must be you, right?"

Ah Lang helped Lin Jing in the Hongyun Inn, so that the latter not only established unconditional blind trust in him, but also had a sense of personality cult. In Lin Jing's heart, Ah Lang at this time was almost omnipotent.

But Ah Lang shook his head slowly, the smile on his face slowly retracted, and said: "This Qian Ah Si was originally born as a swordsman in Taihang Mountain, and his deeds are no different from horse bandits, although his martial arts are not high, but he is ruthless, and he pays attention to the deadly fighting style, just me, but not his opponent." ”

"Then what's good?" After Lin Jing heard this, he was a little nervous, for fear that Ah Lang would not be able to deal with Qian Ah Si and would be in danger, so he hurriedly said: "Brother Lang, otherwise, we don't want the gold." As for Qian Ah Si, let those people with strong martial arts deal with him. ”

"Not really. Ah Lang smiled lightly, patted Lin Jing's shoulder gently, and said, "Although I can't deal with Qian Ah Si alone, I'm not alone!"

"Brother Lang, you still have a companion! Where is he!" Lin Jing heard that Ah Lang had a helper, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he looked at him expectantly.

"That's you!"

"Me?"

Lin Jing was almost stunned and said, "Lang...... Brother Lang, you're not kidding, are you? How can I deal with Qian Ah Si...... I'm only ...... this year He's only six years old!"

Although Lin Jing benefited from his father Lin Kun's tall stature, he was far taller than his peers at the age of six, but his immature face was enough to make people see that he was just a child.

"You heard it right, Brother Lin!" Ah Lang said solemnly, "I'm not joking. I've been tracking Qian Ah Sizu for half a year, and I've touched his way. This person is lustful and gambling, and once the gambling addiction and lust addiction occur, the eight horses can't pull it back. So although he robbed a lot of big families and wealthy businessmen, Qian Ah Si often didn't have any money in hand, otherwise he wouldn't care about a few ingots of gold on your little kid. ”

"So, in a few days, Qian Ah Si will spend all the gold, and then go to rob big families and rich businessmen?" Lin Jing said.

"Huh?" Ah Lang looked at Lin Jing in surprise and said, "Brother Lin, I didn't expect you to know so much at such a young age!"

Lin Jing's face turned red, pursed his lips and was silent, only to hear Ah Lang continue: "That's right, Qian Ah Si has money in his hand, he must go to gamble and visit the kiln, and it's tonight! So, Brother Lin, if you want to deal with Qian Ah Si, we have to start preparing now." ”

"How to prepare, what to prepare?" Lin Jing asked curiously.

Ah Lang smiled slightly and said, "You just need to do what I say." ”

Qixia Town, not far from Wutong Town, but it is the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, the two places have frequent trade, very lively, and it is a famous town in the southwest border.

And if you mention Qixia Town, you have to mention Angang Courtyard.

At first glance, this "Angang Courtyard" has the meaning of a unique inn, but in fact it is the most prestigious gentle township in Qixia Town. Under the rule of the Qing Dynasty, Qixia Town not only did not prohibit Qinglou, on the contrary, it was quite respected, whether it was a merry talent, a chic elegant guest, a reckless rough man or a down-and-out scholar, they could find a safe harbor here and seek a moment of solace for the soul. It is also based on this that Angang Courtyard took such a name.

The bustling crowd fills the streets of the whole Qixia Town, the hawkers who sell grain, melons and fruits, vegetables shout vigorously, and walk around from time to time two officials holding Pu knives, there is a small river in the center of the town, because the river water is clear, the water flow is gentle, so it is named "Qingxi", which adds a bit of tranquility and peace to the lively Qixia Town.

The Angang Courtyard is located on the side of the clear stream, a wooden three-story building, backed by the lively street, opposite the solemn Yamen Mansion across the river.

In the afternoon of this day, with the dull sound of "babbling" and "babbling", the sandalwood gate of the Angang courtyard slowly opened, and seven or eight shirtless men walked out of the courtyard, each of whom held two large pots of seasonal daffodils in small wings, lined up on both sides of the gate, and the verdant green and flawless whiteness added a bit of freshness and vitality to the antique Angang courtyard.

"Oh, you, you, move lightly, this pot of daffodils was brought from the prefect by the old lady who wasted her boss's effort, and it was damaged, can you afford it?"

Somehow, the last shirtless man stumbled under his feet and almost fell, and a sharp scolding sound immediately came from behind him.

Behind the big man, there stood a woman with a fan painted with a delicate peony, she pinched her waist, stared angrily, and her two eyes almost burst into flames. Look at her face, the palm-sized melon seed face is full of fat powder, the eyes are not big or small, the wrinkles that were originally covered are shown because of anger, although the appearance is not ugly, when she was young, she was a beauty, but at this moment she is no longer looking, and you can see at a glance that she is old.

"Is this the Angang Courtyard?"

The middle-aged woman was about to reprimand the big man who made a mistake again, but when she heard a question in her ear, she subconsciously looked up and saw two men in gorgeous clothes standing in front of her.

The two of them are tall and short, the tall one seems to be dressed plainly, but if you look closely, the materials are all fine satin, although they are young and handsome, but there are traces of vicissitudes between the eyebrows. The short one wore a small hat with pearls on it, a jade tie around his waist, and his cheeks were fair, and although his face was immature, it was very different from ordinary children, and he was a little more indifferent after experiencing the world.

"Well, this is the son of a big family. The middle-aged woman muttered to herself in her heart, but her face changed, her mouth grinned, her smile bloomed, she twisted her waist to meet it, and said with a smile: "Two sons, you came early in the morning! If we don't have an Angang courtyard here, where else is the Angang courtyard within a radius of a hundred miles!"

"Early in the morning, this mother, you really know how to laugh, it's almost time!" said the tall man with a smile.

It turned out that this middle-aged woman was the old bustard in the Angang Courtyard.

"Ouch, this son, you are from other provinces, right? Our Angang courtyard is open at this time every day, and the guests usually come after the time of application, you have an early meeting, isn't this early in the morning!" the old bustard smiled and kept looking at the short man.

"Your eyes are really accurate, we are from Dali Mansion, our son-in-law is bored in Dali, thinking about coming out and going around. I heard that this Qixia Town Shang'angang Courtyard is famous in Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, no, we wanted to come and have a look. The tall man said as he winked at the bustard, his right hand holding the ingot of gold.

"Understood, understood!" The old bustard looked at the gold, her smiling eyes narrowed into a line, she twisted to the short man's side, fanned him, and said with a coquettish smile: "Childe, please inside, it's good to have a morning set!"
