Chapter 127: Assisting in the Arrest of the Murderer
Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong listened to the sad past of the old man and sighed.
"Could it be that Hua Dan who sings opera is the daughter of Lu Hua and the old man Qu? If so, then it's miserable! She killed her half-brother with her own hands!" Gu Xiaodong couldn't hide his words in his heart.
Old Man Qu was already sad and couldn't help himself. This is the last thing he wants to see.
"Oh my God! I owe a debt, why should I let my son pay it back! ”
"Please mourn!" Luo Feng sighed and left Old Man Qu's study with Gu Xiaodong.
"Let's go! We can't help with that! Gu Xiaodong didn't want to care anymore, so he had the intention of leaving.
"No! Kill to pay for your life, pay off your debts! No matter what the reason for the murderer, he cannot go unpunished! Luo Feng looked at the pond in the courtyard of the Qu family with burning eyes.
The lotus flowers in the pond have already bloomed, the green stems standing straight, and the green lotus leaves fluttering gently in the breeze.
"Isn't there an official government?" Gu Xiaodong pouted. He knew that Luo Feng's strength was coming up again.
"Let's go for a walk in the streets!" Luo Feng said and walked out of the gate of Qu's house with Gu Xiaodong.
Notices for the arrest of the murderers have been issued and posted on the walls of the streets. Gu Xiaodong looked at the portrait and said with a pout, "It's not like it!" ”
"It doesn't matter if it's like it or not! There are so many people watching the play in the audience, and her face has been engraved in everyone's minds. Luo Feng said lightly.
"The costume on stage is painted, do you know what the makeup looks like?" Gu Xiaodong shook his head and did not agree with Luo Feng's statement.
"Costumes? That's right! There are so many people and props in that troupe, it's not easy to hide! Let's go after them! Luo Feng's eyes shone brightly.
Luo Feng asked the shop on the side, are there beggars around here? The shopkeeper told him at the second intersection that there were several gathered next to the Hakka taverns.
Luo Feng thanked the shopkeeper, and then he and Gu Xiaodong went to the Hakka tavern. Sure enough, they saw two beggars sitting in front of the door. The beggar was in rags, and there was a broken bowl in front of him.
"You help me find the wanted Hua Dan's troupe. This is the money, and I will give you half of it first, and the other half will be yours after the deed is done! Luo Feng squatted down and said to the two beggars.
"Okay!" An older beggar took the coin in Luo Feng's hand and ran away with the little beggar beside him.
"Aren't you afraid that they will never come back? Give them so much money? Gu Xiaodong crossed his arms and looked at Luo Feng, who was slowly standing up.
"No, it won't! Let's go inside and wait! After Luo Feng finished speaking, he walked into the Hakka tavern. Gu Xiaodong followed in, and his wine worm had already come out.
Luo Feng had something on his mind, so he didn't drink much. Gu Xiaodong didn't care, he drank two whole jars.
"If you are drunk! When the news comes, I can't care about you. Luo Feng glanced at Gu Xiaodong, who was already drunk.
"Good! Don't drink anymore! I'll sleep for a while, and don't forget to wake me up later! Gu Xiaodong lay on the wine table.
Luo Feng sat for a day. He saw that it was getting late, so he patted Gu Xiaodong on the shoulder and said, "Let's go!" ”
"Got news?" Gu Xiaodong raised his head and shook it, then looked at Luo Feng with drunken eyes.
"Huh! Do you still remember? Luo Feng stood up with a smile.
"Don't laugh at me!" Gu Xiaodong got up, grabbed Luo Feng's arm, and said with a red face.
Luo Feng dragged Gu Xiaodong out of the door of the tavern. The beggar by the door has already returned. Luo Feng saw that it was the older one.
"Tube Lane, No. 2 East Street has a hanging voice! But I don't know if it's the troupe you're looking for. The beggar sat there and said lazily.
"Why don't you go in?" Luo Feng frowned.
"Master can't get in!" The beggar didn't even lift his eyelids.
"Take us around!" Luo Feng looked at the beggar and said.
The beggar got up lazily and said, "Am I still hungry?" ”
Luo Feng walked into the tavern and asked for two cakes and gave them to the beggar. The beggar didn't eat it, but put it in his arms, and then he took Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong to Guanzi Lane.
If this hadn't been brought by the beggar, Luo Feng and the others would probably not have been able to find this place.
"Brother! They're all resting! The little beggar who had been there climbed down from a tree.
"Give! Eat the cake! The old beggar took out the bread from his bosom and ate it with his brother.
"You go back and wait! Let's see if they come looking for you again! Luo Feng said and flew into the wall with Gu Xiaodong.
The two little beggars stopped chewing, their eyes widened in disbelief.
Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong entered a room, where costumes and props were indeed piled up.
Luo Feng whispered to Gu Xiaodong for a moment, and then they came out of the room and into the courtyard. Gu Xiaodong held a costume in his hand.
Luo Feng jumped onto the lush tree outside the courtyard. Gu Xiaodong deliberately made a sound.
The door of a room opened, and two people came out. They saw Gu Xiaodong walking out with a costume, so they chased after him.
Gu Xiaodong threw the costume in his hand at the two people, and he saw clearly by the moonlight that one of the people chasing him was the martial artist who performed on stage that day.
Gu Xiaodong flew up the wall and returned to the door of the Hakka tavern with Luo Feng. He gave them the other half of the money he had promised to the little beggar. But the little beggar knelt on the ground and begged them to take him in.
Luo Feng said that they still had important matters to talk about when they came back. He asked the two beggars to go to the yamen to report the case.
Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong came to the Qu family compound, and then went into the house to rest.
In the early morning, the servants of the Qu family were all talking about the arrest of the culprit.
The old man of the Qu family fell ill. Luo Feng knew that his heart was sick, so he could only say sorry in his heart.
Luo Feng and Gu Xiaodong bid farewell to Mrs. Qu. Mrs. Qu gave the two some silver coins. Luo Feng said that it was useless and refused to accept it.
They walked out of the courtyard, and Gu Xiaodong said, "That's what we deserve, why don't you?" ”
"Restless!" After Luo Feng finished speaking, he walked towards the city gate. Gu Xiaodong stopped squeaking after thinking about it, and followed Luo Feng's footsteps.
The two of them walked for two days and came to Langzhou.
Gu Xiaodong thought that the weather was hot, so he bought an oil umbrella and played it. Luo Feng also laughed at him for not being exposed to the sun. They hadn't gone for a while, and it was sunny and rainy.
Gu Xiaodong said beautifully: "I am prescient!" ”
Luo Feng didn't refute him this time, took the umbrella in his hand, and the two of them crowded together.
Gu Xiaodong hugged Luo Feng's waist, and Luo Feng didn't care. And so they both entered the city.
The people in the city looked at them, put down their work, and whispered.
"Hey! You're immoral! A purple-clothed young man stood in front of them with a keel umbrella in his hand.
"We're good brothers, what's in your way?" Gu Xiaodong walked over and pushed the young man.
The young man hurriedly grabbed Gu Xiaodong's arm with his backhand. Gu Xiaodong withdrew his arm and locked the young man's throat with his left hand. The young man's body leaned back, and his right leg kicked towards Gu Xiaodong.
Gu Xiaodong jumped back and slapped the young man's instep with his left palm. Luo Feng grabbed Gu Xiaodong's hand and shook his head.
"He's the one who meddles first!" Gu Xiaodong shook off Luo Feng's hand and shouted unconvinced.
