31. Nightclub distress

As night fell, a village and town appeared in front of them. At night, in the middle of this compact village, an oil lamp covered with a high silk cloth shimmers, which is particularly eye-catching. Seeing Lian Sheng riding into the village and town, Ah Xiang summoned Sister-in-law Jiang and dismounted outside the town.

"Sister-in-law Jiang, you rode a horse, pulled my horse, went around to the east of the village and town, and crouched in the dark to see if Lian Sheng continued to hurry. I went in on foot to scout. If he stays overnight, we stay here and watch him. ”

Sister-in-law Jiang got the order to ride a horse and lead the horse along the path to detour.

Ah Xiang quickly entered the village and town. The street was quiet, and many oil lights flashed out of the houses, making the street slightly bright. Lian Sheng seemed to be extremely tired, slowed down the speed of the horse, and the man fell on the horse's back. Coming to the middle of the village and town, where the wind lantern is hung high, it turned out to be an inn, named "Fuyue Inn", and a slightly smaller oil lamp with a silk cloth cover was also hung in front of the door. Lian gave birth to a horse and led the horse in.

Ah Xiang observed in the dark for a while, and when he saw that he did not come out, he hurried eastward. Standing at the east entrance of the village and town, it was dark outside. She whistled, and Sister-in-law Jiang came over with two horses.

"Let's stay in the hotel too!" Ah Xiang said.

Sister-in-law Jiang was extremely tired at this time, led two horses, dragged her feet, and followed Ah Xiang to the vicinity of the "Fuyue Inn". There was a restaurant that was still open, so the two of them entered the restaurant and sat down by the window. Ah Xiang pushed the window open, leaving a gap, and observed while eating, for fear that Lian Sheng would take the opportunity to escape.

Ah Xiang asked for two roast chickens, two plates of stir-fried vegetables, and two bowls of rice, and began to eat. Sister-in-law Jiang found that Ah Xiang especially likes to eat roast chicken, and her mouth is full of oil. Although Sister-in-law Jiang doesn't like greasy, she is also hungry, and she is not willing to lag behind, so she tears off a roast chicken leg and eats it. When the meal was almost finished, two men entered the store, with crooked noses and squinted eyes, scolding, and swearing. They sat down on the other side, asked for some meat and wine, and drank it.

Listening to them, the accent is local, and they are all talking about gambling and the like, obviously two gamblers.

As he sipped his wine, a man squinted his eyes in this direction, and his eyes suddenly froze. "Uh, huh? That's not right! He turned to the other gambler, "Brother, do you see, the one on the table, the man looks like a dog, wears a man's skin, but in fact is a woman, without a handle." ”

"Without a handle?" The other gambler was surprised and looked this way. After watching it for a long time, he seemed to see the clues, got up, slowly staggered over, sat at the table, looked at it carefully, laughed strangely, and spewed out the smell of wine: "I said brother, your eyes are really blistering!" My brother saw that it was two girls, the ones who were pinch and make soup. Feed! Niu'er, how about drinking two cups with my uncle? ”

Sister-in-law Jiang was so frightened that her face changed. She is not afraid of the provocation of the two men, and she is afraid that Ah Xiang will cause trouble.

"Let's ignore him!" Sister-in-law Jiang grabbed Ah Xiang's hand.

Ah Xiang shook off Sister-in-law Jiang's hand, looked at the gambler, and sneered slightly: "Do you really want me to drink with you?" ”

"Seriously! You, Uncle Lin, and I, as well as Second Master Lin over there, when did you speak as a fart? We all smash a pit and smash the water when we talk. ”

"Can you afford to pay for the drink?"

The gambler took out a piece of silver from his bosom: "Do you see enough?" If that's not enough," he said, he turned his head, "brother, shine a light on the girls." ”

"Great!" The gambler over there took out his money bag, and it contained a lot of silver.

Sister-in-law Jiang said solemnly: "We don't want your silver, put it away!" ”

Ah Xiang shouted: "Why do you let him put it away." Shop, cashier! ”

The shopkeeper was a man in his forties, and he didn't want to cause trouble, so he hesitated and didn't move. Ah Xiang waved his hand and swept the silver, which smashed directly towards the store's door. The shopkeeper screamed in fright, flashed back, and fell. It slammed into the opposite wall and fell to the ground.

The two gamblers were shocked: "Huh! What a handsome skill. The two of them jumped together, shoulder to shoulder, pulling up the frame, as if they were going to duel.

At this moment, the utensils flew in from the window, brushing a total of two, and swooped down on the two gamblers. Both gamblers screamed, their expressions changed from panic to froze, and slowly fell to the ground. Sister-in-law Jiang ran over to take a look, both of them were bleeding from the corners of their mouths, and they were having difficulty breathing, obviously dying of exhaustion, and each of them had a flying knife stuck in their backs.

"Ah Xiang, it's a poisonous knife!" Sister-in-law Jiang shouted.

Ah Xiang hurried out of the house. At night, the wind lights of "Fuyue Inn" are shining, the streets are clean, and there is no shadow of people everywhere. Ah Xiang walked into the house quickly and saw that the two gamblers were silent and had died. Ah Xiang said to the shopkeeper who had just stood up: "The silver is our food money." You remember, the person who threw the knife outside is not our person, this is someone deliberately framed. Here we go! ”

The shopkeeper said: "This matter really has nothing to do with the two of you, I have to report the case." However, the two of them are even more unclear. ”

"You don't have to worry about this matter!"

Ah Xiang and Sister-in-law Jiang hurriedly went out and got on their horses. Sister-in-law Jiang thought that she would go east, but Ah Xiang went west. Sister-in-law Jiang was accustomed to obeying orders, so she drove her horse to the west. But out of the village and town, Ah Xiang reined in the horse and ordered Sister-in-law Jiang: "You lead the way in front, follow the path you originally went east to the east of the village and town." ”

Sister-in-law Jiang immediately understood that this was Ah Xiang's plan to attack the west, so she took the lead in finding a path and heading east.

The two came to the east end of the village, dismounted in a wood, and fell to the ground to look into the bright village.

"Ah Xiang," Sister-in-law Jiang said in a low voice, "You just said that this is a ghost made by Lian Sheng?" ”

"Yes. This Lian Sheng is actually very cunning, and he has long found out that we are following. Perhaps, the 'Fuyue Inn' is his black liaison station. While we were eating, he had already sneaked out of the inn and was secretly observing. Seeing that we were in conflict with two hooligans, he took action to kill us and cut us off. ”

Sister-in-law Jiang blurted out: "It's really vicious!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a low sound from above, like the sound of branches scraping and soft objects falling. Ah Xiang screamed: "Not good! "As soon as I pulled Sister-in-law Jiang, I had to jump up. But it was too late, and the two of them put a big net on their heads. The two were caught in the net, strained, and it was difficult to break free.

On the ground, several torches lit up at the same time, and there were about a dozen people standing around, all soldiers, and Changge was shining. A young officer at the head stepped forward and took a closer look.

"It's amazing! Two women indeed. The young officer exclaimed, "Hey! What are your two women, what is your name, where is your home, and why are you trying to murder people? ”

"We didn't kill anyone, we were framed, someone framed us!" Ah Xiang shouted.

Sister-in-law Jiang didn't shout, she just felt very strange. The two people in the hotel had just died, and they had just fled here, when did these soldiers lay in ambush here? Besides, when they came, it was quiet outside, and they didn't find an ambush? What the hell is going on?

But the soldiers could not say anything, escorted them, interrogated them, and went to the villages and towns. Ah Xiang screamed that she was wronged, and many people came out of each family and stopped to watch. Under the pressure, sister-in-law Jiang had to say that her name was Yuxin, and Ah Xiang's name was Qi Xiang, who was from Yingcheng and was going to Pengcheng to find relatives. The soldiers did not believe her, saying that they were disguised as men and had murder weapons hidden in their arms, and that they were clearly robbers of homes and houses.

When I came to the vicinity of the "Fuyue Inn", I saw that the torches were lit in front of the hotel, and two corpses were placed in front of the hotel. The officer asked him to recognize, and he said again and again: "It's them, it's them." However, the official is not the person they killed directly. ”

"They colluded with their accomplices and killed people over disputes, right?"

"The villain doesn't know, the villain doesn't know!" The store was almost stunned.

Sister-in-law Jiang suddenly discovered Lian Sheng. He walked leisurely from the "Fuyue Inn", looking at Ah Xiang and Sister-in-law Jiang, with a gloating look on his face. Sister-in-law Jiang understood that Ah Xiang was right, he had indeed discovered their identities a long time ago, and this case was planned by him. Perhaps, the so-called Uncle Lin and Second Master Lin were hired by him to provoke, but unexpectedly became substitutes for the dead.

Sister-in-law Jiang heard Ah Xiang gritting her teeth and whispering: "Lian Sheng, you thief, I can't spare you!" ”

The young officer announced in front of the public: "The thieves Qi Xiang and Yuxin are from the camp city, they do not abide by women's morals, and they carry murder weapons," he showed the short knife he had collected to the public, "and he wandered around, and even killed two people in a row, and offended my Tianwei." At noon tomorrow, the world will be announced, and the head will be killed in the woods in the eastern suburbs. Imprisoned immediately! ”

Several soldiers stepped forward, no matter how Ah Xiang and Sister-in-law Jiang shouted, and dragged them into a private house and tied them to the pillars. A rag was stuffed into everyone's mouth to prevent shouting.

The soldiers went out of the hall and heard the sound of the gate locking, the whispered voice of the two soldiers standing guard. Except for it, it's quiet. Sister-in-law Jiang trembled at first, but then she thought that she was actually a damned person. Obsessed with someone you shouldn't be in love with, damn it. Delusional to compete with the beautiful Ami who is as beautiful as a flower and has a good piano and dance is even more damned. betrayed the master and almost killed the second egg, this is the third damned. So many damn it, are they still alive?

Therefore, although she brushed away her tears, she did not make a sound. After being sad for a long time, I looked at Ah Xiang and found that she was unusually calm, with her eyes closed, as if she was thinking deeply.

Ah Xiang suddenly turned her face, opened her eyes, and was full of smiles, and winked at Sister-in-law Jiang mischievously, and then shook her head outward, the meaning was obvious: We are ready to escape.

Can you escape?

Sister-in-law Jiang immediately calmed down. This scheming Ah Xiang must have a way! Besides, what about the masked man in black? Doesn't he always show up in critical moments?

Sister-in-law Jiang suddenly felt that the world was rich and colorful. I was confined to my home before, and I thought that Lu Li, who was actually in love with another woman, how narrow-minded it was! I should really learn like Ah Xiang, bravely break into the world, and face everything bravely.

Sister-in-law Jiang didn't know what to say, at this moment, on the psychological level, she had been reborn and become a newcomer.
