Chapter 18: The Growth of the Second Son

The elixir heard a commotion outside and hurriedly asked Xiang Wenchang, "What's going on?" ”

"I don't know, let's go check it out. Wenchang was also curious, jumped down the steps, and followed the crowd.

When you come to the street, you can see that it is already a 'sea of people' at this time. The alley that is not wide is tightly blocked, and the water does not leak.

In a clearing, two corpses lay impressively, covered in white cloths, soaking wet, water stains and filth seeping out of the white cloths, and bursts of stench spread to the crowd with the breeze by the river. But this did not seem to affect the viewing of the surrounding 'gossip' crowd, everyone was strong enough to cover their mouths and noses with handkerchiefs, grapefruits, and even hats, although their brows were furrowed, but they were still full of interest......

"Where did this corpse come from? ”

"I heard that Zhang San's father and son caught the net when they were fishing in the morning......"

"This ...... To say that this father and son are really unlucky......"

"Who's to say it's not...... It's a fucking bad morning!"

"You guess it's a man or a woman?"

"You're a pig! Look at this height posture, you look like a big man!"

"Don't talk nonsense, don't you see the boots on the corpse's feet?

"Yes, I'll go! It's the government that died!......? Who is so bold......"

......

The two corpses were lying quietly on the lawn, two white cloths covering their faces and bodies respectively, and a pair of official boots were particularly eye-catching. Let the surrounding crowd be suspicious and discuss.

The people spontaneously formed a circle around the two corpses, not taking one more step forward or taking one more step back. It's just blocked at the corner of the street. The three people standing next to the corpses, one was the guard of Mu Wangfu, and after he recognized that the official boots were Mu Wangfu, he hurriedly detained the two corpses. And the other two are what people call unlucky eggs - Zhang San and his son.

After a while, there was a commotion outside the crowd, "Get out of the way!" People were also surprised, who didn't know the name of Mu Wangfu. turned around and hurriedly made way for the masters of King Mu's mansion.

I saw that the people of Mu Wangfu led by Mu Yuxi had blue faces and walked towards the corpse without saying a word. The onlookers did not dare to come out and avoided it. The gossip person also kept his mouth shut.

Wang Lao leaned down and lifted the white cloth, and after seeing the face of the corpse, his expression became more and more solemn. "That's right, it's our escort on this trip. He sighed, looked up at the guards who had been there, "When did you find out?"

"Return, my lord, an hour ago. ”

"These two are ......" Looking at the two fishermen beside him, Wang Lao continued to ask.

These two were the first eyewitnesses. The guard replied hurriedly.

"Oh, these two bodies were found by the two of you?" asked Wang Lao with an expressionless face.

The two fishermen knew that it must be a big man in front of them, and replied tremblingly, "My lord, we, father and son, went out to fish early in the morning, and just cast the first net, and the first net did not catch anything...... On the contrary, it is ......"

The two of them were already chilling when they said this, for fear of getting into trouble and implicating themselves. You must know that the people in the government, the corpses were caught by themselves, and if they fall to blame, the father and son will not be able to escape their involvement.

Besides, they are all mountain village husbands, where have they seen this kind of battle, and they were so frightened early in the morning, they are already at the end of the crossbow, and they can stand there It is already a very good psychological quality.

But after seeing that the adult listened to his description, a trace of coldness flashed inexplicably in his eyes, and the two immediately urinated.

Both of them fell to their knees, kowtowing like chickens running through broken rice, as if they didn't want money, crying and shouting, "Lord! You want to know it! Really don't care about our business! We are just unlucky......

"We shouldn't have ...... online"

"Huh?"

"No, no, no, we didn't mean that, we should have found out earlier......" For a while, the two didn't know what they wanted to justify, but they became darker and darker......

Wang Lao also knew that these two people were innocent, and he was helpless when he saw this scene, "Okay, okay, I know, I won't blame your father and son, you are not guilty of this matter, but you have merit." As he spoke, he waved his hand and instructed the guard, "Take the two of them down to receive the reward, and arrange a meal to suppress the shock." ”

As soon as the two of them heard that the old man in front of them was going to reward themselves, they immediately turned from rain to sunny, and the face that was crying like a cucumber immediately smiled, and wiped their snot and tears indiscriminately, and laughed. A thousand thanks.

After sending the two of them away, Wang Lao turned around and asked Mu Yuxi for instructions, "Young Master, do you see this matter......

Without waiting for Elder Wang to finish speaking, Mu Yuxi shook his head and said, "Uncle Wang, both of you are loyal people of my Mu Palace, you know better than me, and this matter will be handled by you with full authority." No matter what the outcome is, I owe them both. As he spoke, he bowed to Elder Wang, "Even if it is the end of the earth! No matter what excuse! The person who took the life of my brother in Mu Wangfu also asked Elder Wang to arrest him, and I Mu Yuxi will personally avenge my brothers!"

Wang Lao was stunned when he heard what he said. Looking at Mu Yuxi, who turned to leave, Wang Laoxin had mixed feelings in his heart. How did this second son grow so much all at once. From yesterday...... To this day......

"Young master, don't worry, my Wang Lao will give up this old life to save the face of my Mu Wangfu!" Facing his back, Wang Lao secretly made up his mind.

Mu Yuxi didn't say a word of superfluity from the appearance to the exit, there was no trace of arrogance, there was no point of deception and domination, but a few words invisibly showed the 'style of the king'.

After sending Mu Yuxi away, Wang Lao hurriedly ordered his subordinates, "Go, call the people of the Wen family." ”

"Yes!" the guard answered and was about to leave, but Wang Lao seemed to suddenly think of something, and hurriedly stopped him.

"Your Excellency. ”

"Be sure that Wenxuan comes to the scene. ”

"Yes!"

As soon as the guard left, Wang Lao looked at the calm river with his hands behind his back, and muttered, "Those who dare to challenge Mu Wangfu are not small. Wen family, this ceremony, I'm afraid it won't be so peaceful. ”

The deceased, two of the ten guards accompanying Mu Wangfu on this trip, died overnight, they are all masters above the three gates, and they can kill people who can kill without leaving any traces overnight, this strength is ......

"That's it, don't say it's a warrior from my Mu Palace, even if it's a subordinate of my Mu Palace, it's not something that anyone can easily bully......" Looking at the river, Wang Lao's eyes became sharper and sharper......
