Chapter 337: Stealing the Lamp
"You didn't say you'd let him go!" Lin Xuan's voice almost roared out of his throat: "Why do you want to kill him!" ”
"The man has been let go, but I didn't say I wouldn't kill him." Meng Zhuzhou pointed with his eyes to Wen Chenzi, who stepped out of the long pavilion with half a foot.
The reputation of the son of Zhuzhou in the rivers and lakes has always been a promise, and now Meng Zhuzhou feels strange to Lin Cheng.
"It's horrible... You're terrible. Lin Cheng took two steps back, suddenly picked up the saber at his waist, and his eyes were red.
"Ask Chenzi is my friend, in order to help you, he did something against his will, and so did the things in the palace, didn't he say that there would be no problems!"
Meng Zhuzhou tilted his head slightly, his hair was fragile from his shoulders, his expression was indifferent and compassionate, and the whole person revealed a cold meaning: "The Dan he refined is poisonous, and sooner or later he will be caught, Zizhuxuan has always been careful in doing things, you know what I mean." ”
Of course he knew that Zizhuxuan was a killer organization and not a good hall, and all those who were useless to them would be killed, why did he still have unrealistic illusions about Meng Zhuzhou, why would he believe in Meng Zhuzhou like a ghost?
"Besides, is the poison pill forcing him to refine?" Meng Zhuzhou's words pierced his heart and lungs: "Everything is voluntary, otherwise who can force a master of poison to harm people?" ”
"Not to mention that a monk is proficient in medical skills, and he is especially good at Bang Yangwen and is familiar with Beizhen Fusi, do you think such a person will be a simple monk?" He laughed cruelly: "It's sad that you should be, as a friend, you don't know his past at all, but it doesn't hurt to know now." ”
Lin Cheng slowly looked up at Meng Zhuzhou, confused.
"Wen Chenzi used to work in Honglu Temple, he is terrible, in the past, most of the trade of the city was promoted by him, but it's a pity-" Meng Zhuzhou smiled sarcastically: "He worshipped the wrong teacher, caused the disaster of killing, ruined his family, and fled overseas." ”
The 'Pang Zhong case' punished ten clans, parents, brothers, grandfathers, in-laws, friends, protégés, protégés... No one was spared, and the number of people involved was as high as 10,000 people.
"The poison pill was refined by himself, and the palace was also entered by himself, and he didn't force anyone under him, it was all voluntary." Meng Zhuzhou wrapped his cloak tightly: "You love my willing transaction, isn't the revenge also avenged in the end?" ”
Lin Xuan was stunned in place, he was like knowing Meng Zhuzhou for the first time, and the unscrupulous nature of this person made him shudder.
The cold wind of the wilderness blows through people's hearts, and the barren and filthy land is hidden under the snow.
Meng Zhuzhou chuckled twice, he came back, and all of them, who were burdened with hatred, came back.

At the beginning of the lights, there was intermittent scolding outside the courtyard where Cao Bo temporarily stayed.
"The things raised by the son of a bitch, I don't look at whose house this is! Dare to come here and steal lanterns! Jiao Da thrust his waist and pinched his throat and shouted and scolded.
There are many ways to scold people in the palace, and you can hear what kind of 'after-break words', and in the end, the people who lie on the walls of each house are people.
"Why don't you go in?" Jiang Banxia came out of it.
"Senior brother, you can call the shots for us." Jiao Da pursed his lips, revealing a deputy grievance.
"dog thing, it's just a matter of stealing one, and the black-hearted one actually finished all the lanterns at the door! Don't be afraid of cutting off your children and grandchildren if you steal our lamp! ”
Jiang Banxia looked up, the door of the house was bare, not to mention that the lantern was gone, and even the couplets and door gods posted on the door had been removed.
She has never encountered this situation, and it is definitely impossible to catch people, and it is not worth it to catch a few lamp thieves in the huge Kyoto.
Jiang Banxia pondered for a moment, attracting Jiao Da to whisper.
"Don't curse the street in the street for a while, and call a few more brothers from the palace to come to the house to drink, so that the people on this street will know where this family is from."
"Do you really want the lantern back?" Jiao Da was skeptical.
"You can give it a try, the people are superstitious, and they always like to believe in some things that they don't have." Jiang Banxia instructed: "It's best to let them understand that this is not a place where they can go wild. ”
Jiao Dalian nodded repeatedly: "Understood, understood." ”
The person who stole the lantern must have seen that the lantern at the door of this house was well-made, and the appearance was different from the white lantern on the market, and it was the Yuan Festival, so he naturally stole it, but if they knew that this household was a eunuch, they would not steal it if they were killed.
Not stealing a castration's lamp is not because of fear, but out of bad luck.
It took half a city to walk from Cao Bo's house to her rented place, Jiang Banxia did not ride a horse or sit in a sedan chair, she wandered aimlessly along the street alone.
Kyoto on the day of the Shangyuan Festival is lit up all night, according to the rules of the national funeral, it should be forbidden to play, but the people don't care about such a thing, they still have to be happy, and those who can't be happy have to be secretly happy.
"Come to a bowl of Lantern Festival and put more roses." She stopped at a stall and tossed the copper coin into the stall owner's bamboo basket.
"Okay!" The stall owner neatly took the empty bowl from the table and wiped it clean.
Jiang Banxia sat down, she looked at the brightly lit streets around her, full of people in white shirts, people gathered together in twos and threes, holding lanterns and flocking to the river or beyond.
"It's just out of the pot, it's a little hot, you eat it slowly!"
A bowl of steaming rice balls was served, she stirred the upper layer of the poured marinade and took a bite, the Lantern Festival is not as soft and glutinous as the rice balls, but it is very chewy, when the bite opens, the fragrance of sesame seeds bursts on the tip of the tongue, so sweet that it is so sweet that she drinks a small sip of soup on the side of the bowl, and the taste in her mouth becomes dull again.
She had no appetite for a spoon.
"Yo, what kind of wind blew you out of the palace?" A tall young man walked in front of him, and the young man was dressed in a turquoise round-necked robe, with the corners of his clothes tied up high to reveal black leather boots, capable and graceful.
"General Winter." Jiang Banxia got up and arched his hand, and a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Don't laugh, are you tired all day long?" Winter Mash took out the gold-sprinkled folding fan from his waist and began to fan the wind indiscriminately, fanned it twice and threw it to Jiang Banxia in disgust.
"Oh, the rules in Kyoto are different, you have to wear a folding fan when you go out in winter, in my opinion, it's pure boredom, this fan is a good thing, give it to you, Brother Jiang."
What I got in hand was a gold-sprinkled folding fan with Xiangfei bamboo as a fan bone, smooth and delicate to start, the price was definitely not cheap, Jiang Banxia was a little surprised, this Xiaodong general wanted to give her?
"If you give it to you, you will take it, what is hypocrisy, what is our hypocrisy fan." Winter Mash stalked his head and forcibly changed the subject: "By the way, do you know whose garrison is on the outskirts of the city?" ”
