Chen Tongsheng and Song Chuanbai looked at each other.

This is a bit outrageous.

If Fan Rui could still take care of the horses better than himself because he saw through the red dust because of the death of his master, and he was obsessed with raising horses, it would barely make sense.

Can you let the horses live in a good house, and live in such a windy and rainy house, maybe there will be a leak?

Chen Tongsheng thought about what Song Chuanbai said about him using his accumulated savings to become an adult, and he couldn't help but be a little shaken in his heart.

To say that he can't do it...... Not necessarily.

When Chen Tongsheng climbed over the fence of the yard lightly, the people inside did not react, but the horses in the left wing noticed something, and snorted, Chen Tongsheng turned his head, and saw a horse's eyes looking at her through the gap in the door.

The gap is quite large, and the horse's eyes are also quite large, Chen Tongsheng glanced at it indifferently, and continued to sneak towards the main room, the horse snorted several times anxiously, and then began to hit the door panel with his chest, and tried to raise his front hooves to knock on the door panel, making a great noise.

There was silence in the main wing room for a while, and it was not until the horse had already raised his front hooves and stepped heavily on the ground, making all kinds of malicious warning actions to Chen Tongsheng, that the door of the main wing room opened in hindsight. Chen Tongsheng rushed to the roof the room at the moment of the door knocking, and Fan Rui staggered out in anger, holding a long knife in his hand.

He looked around and saw that there was no one in the courtyard, so he vigilantly opened the door of the stable, let the horse out, and looked inside himself before he was relieved.

Who is Fan Rui wary of?

His movements, as well as the long knife in his hand, showed that it was not the first time he had encountered a horse warning, and in the wooden house, Fan Rui quickly realized that someone had come, and even tried to find out what the intruder might have left behind.

Chen Tongsheng looked down, and the moment she saw the horse, she was stunned for a moment, and then immediately guessed the reason why Fan Rui stayed here and took good care of the horse.

It took a lot of effort for Fan Rui to comfort the horses, and then he went into the house again.

Chen Tongsheng rolled down the roof, came to Song Chuanbai in a few steps, and opened his mouth to say, "I guess why Fan Rui is like this." ”

"Master Hou still remembers the horse I rode into the wasteland and is now tied to the outside of the mountains and forests."

Song Chuanbai nodded, and then saw Chen Tongsheng and said: "It turned out to be a good horse I bought myself, with extremely strong feet and good at running, and later sent it to the county government managed by Fang Liangzhe for safekeeping." When I went to the wasteland, Fang Liangzhe also arranged this horse for me, and the most obvious place of this chestnut horse is that there are red and white patterns on the buttocks, which spread until the horse's legs gradually dissipate, which is very recognizable. And just now I saw the buttocks of the chestnut horse led by Fan Rui, and it was exactly the same pattern. ”

Song Chuanbai asked, "Are you sure?" ”

"I'm sure, the pattern is absolutely the same, I can't recognize the horse, if it's mixed with other people's horses, it's all used this method to identify, it's very familiar."

"That is to say," Song Chuanbai said, "Because Fang Liangzhe was not transferred here, your horses could not be deposited with the county government, so they were entrusted to Fan Rui instead." ”

"That's how it should be. So he was taking care of the horses for others, not obsessed with raising them himself. ”

Chen Tongsheng said, suddenly hairy, and his heart was cold and realized another problem.

She may not be in this world anymore.

From Fan Rui's bow to the hut, to his attitude towards the horse left by Chen Tongsheng, there is a strong sense that the Si people have gone.

Song Chuanbai obviously thought of this, Chen Tongsheng was very annoyed and said, "Why don't we go to see him directly." ”

Song Chuanbai hesitated, Chen Tongsheng: "What's wrong?" ”

He shook his head and said, "Yes." ”

Chen Tongsheng was about to enter the courtyard again and knock directly on Fan Rui's door, but when he pulled his feet, he heard a commotion.

A group of villagers crowded and followed, and the leading few proudly kicked the small fence and smashed Fan Rui's door first.

Fan Rui listened to such a big movement outside this time, but he didn't come out with a knife, opened the door empty-handed, expressionless, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Song Chuanbai reminded in Chen Tongsheng's ear in a low voice: "It's not the same batch. ”

Chen Tongsheng nodded, Fan Rui's reaction to the two movements was different, and the latter time was even more powerful, but he didn't take a knife, which showed that in his heart, the lack of movement that would cause the horse's warning was dangerous, and the one who came to slam the door with great fanfare did not need to worry.

"I said three taels last time, No," said the man who wore a bald hat on his head, and raised his hand to reveal something in his palm: "Our host is considerate, and said to make up for you one or two, a total of four taels, take it." ”

After that, he didn't care whether Fan Rui took it or not, and turned around and shouted: "Lead the horse!" ”

The rest of the villagers followed to see the excitement, only the three leaders came to do errands, and the other two went to lead the horses, Fan Rui stepped out and stopped in front of them, saying, "What are you doing!" ”

"Buy a horse, old deaf!" The bald hat urged: "What are you still standing for, go and lead!" ”

Fan Rui's legs and feet are inconvenient, but he still has some kung fu on his body, and stopping in front of those two people makes them unable to move forward, blocking the gap and yelling at the bald hat: "I confiscate your money!" Take! I don't sell horses! ”

Fan Rui shouted very loudly, and Chen Tongsheng heard it from afar.

The bald hat seems to be specially here to grab horses, and it has probably been discussed before, and the other party has decided the price of three taels without authorization.

Chen Tongsheng sneered in his heart, she spent eleven taels on this horse when she bought it, which can be described as a huge expense, and the ordinary people who generally rely on the fields to eat at home, the annual cost is only twenty taels, so that she has steamed buns with cold water every day during that time, and she can't afford to eat meat.

In the eyes of the villagers, four taels is not a small amount of money, if you change your own horse and donkey, you must have changed it happily, and you are envious and curious, and you come to the door to see the excitement.

Fan Rui was tripped and fell to the ground all of a sudden, and the onlookers outside let out an oop exclamation, Chen Tongsheng saw that they deliberately stepped on his broken leg when they crossed Fan Rui, this was bearable, she just didn't look at Song Chuanbai's reaction, and knew that he must be very angry at this time.

Fan Rui was also annoyed, hugged the person next to him and threw him to the ground, rode up and held it down and greeted with his fist, beating the person to scream again and again.

During the scuffle, Fan Rui was torn away, and the bald hat scolded and commanded the other two to besiege Fan Rui, Chen Tongsheng has also seen such a routine, all of which deliberately provoked the seller, beat the person, and then took the things and left, not only to return to the owner, but also to swallow the money to buy things.

Originally, the so-called owner made up for it, and it may be far more than one or two.

Chen Tongsheng suddenly rushed out from her hiding place, just when she was about to grab the bald hat first, Chen Tongsheng suddenly caught a glimpse of the cold light, and at the moment when Fan Rui got up, the person next to him suddenly pulled out a firewood knife from the pyre at his feet, and stabbed Fan Rui in the back of the heart without hesitation when Chen Tongsheng didn't have time to adjust his movements at all.

Fan Rui's eyes protruded, staring at her without blinking, as if Chen Tongsheng appeared in front of him, more shocking to him than he had been stabbed.

He opened his mouth, Chen Tongsheng could barely make out that it was calling his name, and then he asked something again, but he couldn't say anything, Fan Rui spat out a mouthful of blood, convulsed and fell to the ground.

It's hopeless.

Chen Tongsheng has been experiencing this kind of thing for a long time, and he can judge at a glance that there is no help.

Her heart was furious, and she caught up with the panicked murderer, snatched the firewood knife with her backhand, and changed the position of her hand the moment she got the knife, holding the blade with her hand, and striking it heavily on the back of the murderer.

Originally, she aimed at the back of her head, but in a fit of rage, she was able to knock someone to death, so she changed her path again and landed on the back of the killer's neck a little lower. Even so, the killer involuntarily flew forward under the heavy blow, and then fell to the ground hard, and there was no sound directly.

Chen Tongsheng pinched a few people more easily than pinched ants, and they all fell down in the blink of an eye, but he didn't want the crowd to disperse the moment he raised his head.

She hoped that these villagers would gather here, as close as possible, to block the pool of blood and the sight of outsiders.

However, the villagers who watched the excitement saw that there was a death and coaxed back, and Chen Tongsheng and the fallen person were completely exposed in an instant.

Chen Tongsheng didn't even dare to look in Song Chuanbai's direction, and he didn't dare to meet his gaze.

That's how Fan Rui died.

Death was inexplicable, meaningless, and without warning. Died at the hands of an unknown minion, and even had nothing to do with Yang and Hou, and had nothing to do with the years in Kyoto.

Is it because her sudden appearance startled the minions?

However, the position of the firewood knife was so hidden that Chen Tongsheng did not even notice its existence at first, but was pulled out without hesitation by a person who came here to make trouble, as if the knife was deliberately placed there.

And before, even Fan Rui came out of the house with a long knife, not to get a firewood knife.

Song Chuanbai pushed aside the crowd, or the crowd automatically avoided him, anyone who saw his face would be shocked, Song Chuanbai's face was as white as paper, it was a stagnant white, revealing the gloomy mood inside.

He walked up to Fan Rui with such an extremely ugly face, and squatted down to inspect Fan Rui's body.

Chen Tongsheng saw that his fingers were trembling, and even the action of touching the wound was violently trembling, and he pressed the empty place several times, as if the whole hand suddenly lost control.

How well he knows Fan Rui, and how much Fan Rui trusts and is honest with him, Fan Rui completely regards the Hou Mansion as his home, and follows Song Chuanbai wholeheartedly, never thinking of going outside to buy a house and build a family. It is impossible for these Song Chuanbai not to perceive.

"Look at what!" Chen Tongsheng didn't dare to face Song Chuanbai, and yelled angrily at the villagers: "It's not going to disperse!" Get out! ”

The villagers scattered in a hurry.

A cold hand held Chen Tongsheng's hand, Chen Tongsheng looked down in shock, but saw Song Chuanbai slowly raising his head and looking at him, the light of the two rounds of immersion in the river and moon in his eyes was cold, and there was an indescribable, intense sadness.

"Don't worry," he said, repeating in a soft voice, "don't worry. ”

His gaze moved downward, falling on Chen Tongsheng's palm that he was holding, just now she pinched the blade in her hand in order to prevent her from missing and killing people, and directly opened a long opening, and the injury was not lighter than those who provoked trouble.

At this time, the wound was pouring blood out, and it was already dripping a big puddle at her feet, and Chen Tongsheng didn't even notice it at all, and she only felt the pain at this time.
