Chapter 17: The Bounty
Everyone imagined that picture for a moment, and it felt a little nondescript.
Li Mengbai said with a smile: "The small pavilion is generally a handsome young man, and the fat is often like that, I'm afraid that people don't accept it." ”
Yuejian sandwiched a pair of chopsticks and looked at him with a smile: "I know a lot, have you been there?" ”
"Ahem......" Li Mengbai's mouth of flower roll choked.
Shen Changfeng asked Tang Tang: "Where did you see it from?"
Tang Tang pointed to Los Angeles and them: "I heard it the last time Luo Cheng talked to Kagura. ”
Everyone turned their gaze to Los Angeles and Kagura with the expression of a bad child.
Luo Cheng twitched the corners of his mouth, forgot to nibble on the steamed buns, and said in his heart: Just like Tang Tang, you still need to be taught!
During the play, he poked Luo Cheng: "Agua, it turns out that you and Kagura like men?" ”
Kagura immediately clarified: "What Los Angeles said has nothing to do with me. ”
"No, I only found out ......when I was gossiping about a few aunts next door," Luo Cheng explained.
You don't have to explain the faces of the others, I see, we all know the expressions.
Luocheng was sweating all over his face, and he couldn't wash it off when he jumped into the Yellow River.
Luo Guangling propped his head and asked Liangyue: "It's usually like this?" "Are these people so unserious?
"This one...... "Liang Yue's serious face: "Occasionally." ”
After the meal, Luo Guangling and Luo Cheng went to prepare the supplies needed on the subsequent road, Feng Zheng took Li Mengbai out for a walk, he saw that Tang Tang and Yue saw that the clothes of the Lisu girl were strange and beautiful, and he thought about getting a set for Li Hongying.
Li Mengbai has no opinion, but is it a bit unreliable for two big men to choose clothes?
happened to be on the side, and said very righteously that he would go with him and give Feng Zheng a reference, and it happened that she and Li Hongying were about the same height.
The rest of the people sat in the courtyard drinking tea, each doing their own thing-
Ye Qingzhi was still reading the geographical chronicles, and occasionally asked Zhao Qi to harass her; Tang Tang fiddled with the two jars, and Shen Changfeng sat next to him and watched a few insects of different colors crawling around on the side; And Shen Lingjun was knocking on a plate of pumpkin seeds, which the kitchen lady pulled out of the pumpkin and dried it and fried it, and the taste was quite fragrant; Su Musha lowered his head and thought about his master, and always felt that this thing that the Sword Master came here to find must be very important......
The post house guard came to report, and someone reported to Lord Shen of Dali Temple, saying that he had come to provide clues to the flower thief.
Shen Lingjun was quite puzzled, let's not say that he was going to the county government to report the case, why did he still specify to find her?
Waiting for the guards to bring people over, Shen Lingjun couldn't help but twitch his eyelids when he saw it clearly.
The person who came was dressed in a light gray brocade robe, holding a folding fan in his hand, and he was also a handsome and handsome man with a fluttering robe, with a warm smile on his face, and before he could get closer, he smiled warmly: "Now I need someone to pass on you when I see you." ”
Shen Lingjun pressed his eyelids that couldn't stop, and pretended to be surprised: "Why are you in Lushui Mansion?" ”
Zhao Qi and Ye Qingzhi exchanged a look: The aura of these two people is very wrong.
Su Musha glanced at it and continued to bow his head to drink tea.
Tang Tang's chin hung on Shen Lingjun's shoulder, and he asked with a smile, "Who is this handsome guy?" ”
Shen Changfeng took a step out from behind and said, "Brother Kong, you have also come to Lushui Mansion." ”
This person is Kong Jing, he looked around secretly, and the afterglow fell on Su Mushao without a trace, and quickly retracted it, and said with a smile: "Changfeng, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”
Guishan is not far from Lushui Mansion, but they haven't seen each other for many years, and the three of them didn't expect to meet again here.
Shen Lingjun introduced Zhao Qi to Kong Jing, and Kong Jing said with admiration in surprise: "It turned out to be General Zhao, and I have admired him for a long time." ”
Zhao Qi nodded at him and continued to read the same book as Ye Qingzhi.
Kong Jing felt that he was really a general, and this style could not be compared with ordinary people.
In fact, Zhao Qi is not playing music, but for people who are not familiar with him, he is too lazy to speak, so he looks more majestic.
Shen Lingjun introduced the others again, Kong Jing had seen them one by one, and when he arrived at Su Musha, Kong Jing took the first step and said: "This is the only apprentice of the Sword Saint, the first swordsman Su Sanshao, right?" Then he smiled slightly: "I met once when I was a child." ”
Shen Lingjun almost forgot that it was to heal Kong Jing's injuries that the Sword Saint and Su Musha would come to the mountain and stay for two or three days.
Su Musha glanced up at him, and then looked away.
Kong Jing didn't care about other people, raised his right hand, his index finger was wrapped around a red rope, and there was a piece of jade pendant on the red rope, it was the one that Shen Lingjun had seen yesterday, the jade pendant dangled in front of Shen Lingjun, and said with a warm smile: "Ling'er, you should always know this jade pendant, right?" ”
Shen Lingjun touched his nose and pinched his chin again: "What a jade pendant, I can't recognize it." ”
Does Shen Lingjun know it, when he knows, he recognizes it at a glance. Why? Because Kong Jing took this jade pendant several times and said that it was his family heirloom and wanted to give it to Shen Lingjun, she refused.
Kong Jing gently knocked the folding fan in his hand on the top of Shen Lingjun's hair: "You won't lie since you were a child." ”
Zhao Qi and they looked at it, so intimate?
At the same time, he looked at Su Musha, but saw that his expression was as usual. However, it's strange that he has an ice cube face, so he has a different expression.
With so many people here, Shen Lingjun felt quite embarrassed, cleared his throat, and said, "That, what is the matter with you coming over today." ”
"The flower thief you caught was impersonated." After Kong Jing sat down, he first said something that shocked everyone.
Shen Lingjun said: "It has already been tried, and he did those few cases." ”
Kong Jing smiled, took out a piece of paper and handed it over: "You take a look." ”
Shen Lingjun looked at it suspiciously, the pink paper was glowing with a faint fragrance, and a peach blossom on the paper was scorching and blooming: "Peach blossom note? ”
Ye Qingzhi put down the scroll and looked over: "Hey, it's different." ”
Su Musha sat beside Shen Lingjun, also saw it, and nodded: "It's really different." ”
Tang Tang caught a blue-red insect and fed it on the trunk of the tree, and looked at it condescendingly: "It looks almost." ”
Kong Jing shook the folding fan and shook it: "This peach blossom is half-open and half-closed, like a shy and timid girl, which is the most wonderful scene." ”
Ye Qingzhi said: "Yes, the peach blossoms painted on the peach blossom paper are all in full bloom, the paper is not as exquisite as this one, if I see it correctly, this paper is the pine paper produced by the Xie family in Xuanzhou, which only produces five feet per year, and the price is expensive, comparable to Shu brocade." ”
Kong Jing looked at Ye Qingzhi with a little surprise: "The girl is very knowledgeable. ”
Shen Lingjun knocked on the table: "You mean, the peach blossom note is different, so the murderer is someone else?" ”
"No, the murderer you caught is indeed the one who committed the crime in Lushui Mansion." Hole Mirror Road.
Su Musha said: "Imitating others to commit crimes." ”
Kong Jing's eyes swept over, his eyes were a little subtle, and he nodded: "That's right, the person who issued this peach blossom note is the real flower thief." ”
Shen Lingjun put the paper on the table: "Whether it's true or not, the murderer has been caught anyway." "It means, if you really didn't commit a crime here, it has nothing to do with her, whoever likes to catch will be arrested.
At this time, Kong Jing took out another thing and put it in front of everyone.
A few people saw clearly that it was a copper coin, an ordinary and serious copper coin.
Kong Jing looked at everyone: "Do you know what this is?" ”
Shen Lingjun twitched the corners of his mouth, disdainful of answering such a simple question.
Tang Tang lay on the trunk of the tree and poked it with the trunk folded in his hand: "Copper coins." ”
Who knows, Kong Jing shook his head: "No, it's a bounty." ”
Then, Kong Jing sighed again and said, "Ling'er, I came to you today for this matter. ”
Zhao Qiting doesn't like this person, he speaks awkwardly, he can't explain it in one breath, and he has to let people guess.
Shen Lingjun was embarrassed left and right, afraid that Kong Jing would say something shocking again, and he wished that he would speak quickly and leave.
Only Shen Changfeng asked seriously: "Could it be related to the matter of this flower thief." ”
Kong Jing closed the folding fan, gently tapped the palm of his hand, and said slowly: "A few days ago, I passed by Baoshan Mansion and met a little girl......"
At that time, Kong Jing Baoshan Mansion was talking to people about a business, and after coming out of the teahouse, a dirty little girl rushed over and hit him. After he straightened the little girl, the little girl suddenly broke free and ran away. Kong Jing touched the money bag, and sure enough, it was gone.
So, Kong Jing easily followed the little girl with light work, and planned to teach the little girl that stealing was not right.
But what he didn't expect was that the little girl happily handed the money bag back to him, and said, "You are so good at kung fu, I want to entrust you to kill someone." ”
The little girl, who was only seven or eight years old, had such tenacious and deep eyes, and casually said murderous words, Kong Jing was quite surprised at that time.
Kong Jing found a place to sit down and chat with the little girl, only to learn about the little girl's life experience.
The little girl's name is Lingfan, and her family is also a famous local family, because she has been active since she was a child, her father invited a gentleman who teaches kung fu, so she has some skills, and Kong Jing will let her steal the silver bag.
A few months ago, Lingfan's family suffered a tragic accident, and all 34 members of a family were slaughtered.
Lingfan witnessed the whole process, but the murderer left a peach blossom note and said to her with a smile: "If you want revenge, come to me yourself." ”
After saying this, the murderer took Ling Fan outside the door and set fire to the entire mansion.
Lingfan is looking for targets to steal on the street, one is to survive, and the other is to find someone with advanced kung fu to avenge himself.
Kong Jing asked her at the time, why don't you choose to learn kung fu yourself to take revenge?
The young Lingfan's eyes were full of hatred, and she said, "Ten or twenty years is too long, I can't afford to wait." ”
However, Lingfan didn't have anything of value in her body, and she took out the only copper coin on her body: "I only have this one copper plate, can I entrust you to kill that person for me?" ”
Kong Jing's first reaction was to refuse, he was not a killer, except for his father's identity, he was an ordinary businessman. But the girl's stubborn eyes fell into his heart for some reason, and he really couldn't refuse.
After finishing speaking, Kong Jing sighed and said, "Later, I checked the origin of the peach blossom note, and I immediately regretted agreeing to her." ”
Shen Lingjun took the peach blossom note and flipped it over to see: "What happened to the origin of this peach blossom note?" ”
