Chapter 30: The Bloody Case in the Border County (5)
Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng entered Dongjun, looking at the elegant buildings of the Central Plains of Qin bricks and Han tiles, which made people naturally produce a kind of generosity and tenderness, the sky was high and the clouds were light, the breeze was blowing, the two people sat on the horse and watched while walking, and suddenly saw a convoy in front of them slowly moving forward, Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng immediately rolled the saddle and dismounted, and quietly followed the convoy to check, the convoy stopped at the Dongjun Post House, Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng watched the shop Xiaoer lead the convoy into the backyard, and a familiar woman entered the post house directly, Shi Lao said: " Zhang Tunchang, I finally caught up, and we also stayed here tonight. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Well, be well prepared, don't make any mistakes. β
"Yes, be careful, and find a way to wrap up the room next to the woman. β
Shi Lao pressed the brim of his hat down hard, and walked to the door of the post house, Xiao Er quickly ran out to greet Zhang Yifeng and asked, "Master, how many people do you want, how many rooms do you want?"
"Two. Zhang Yifeng said this, took out some broken silver, handed it to Xiao Er, and said in a low voice: "Arrange a room for the two of us next to the girl who came in just now." β
Xiao Er grinned knowingly and said: "Second master, I guarantee that you will be satisfied, two distinguished guests, one first-class guest room, please upstairs." β
Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng walked upstairs on the creaking wooden stairs under the leadership of Xiao Er, Xiao Er opened a door and made a gesture of please and said, "Second master, please inside." β
Later, Xiao Er also deliberately made a look to the right, and Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng immediately understood that Xiao Er meant that the girl lived in the room next door on the right.
Zhang Yifeng said: "Little Er, quit, you don't have to come up if you don't shout." β
"Okay, master, you can rest, just call the small ones if you have something. Xiao Er said Teng Teng and went downstairs.
The sky gradually darkened, Zhang Yifeng took out the prepared dry food from his pocket, and said softly to Shi Lao: "In case of exposure, let's accommodate these and eat these, what do you think, Shi Lao?"
"That's the best, come, eat first. β
Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng ate with relish, and at this moment they heard the stairs creaking again, and after a while, they heard Xiao Er say: "Hehe, Meng Ye, please here, it is definitely a good room." β
"It's been too quiet in the museum lately, isn't it?" asked a strong baritone.
"Hehe, thanks to Meng Ye's blessing, it is very peaceful, and the merchants who come and go from the south to the north dare not make trouble in our post house, which is not all covered by Meng Ye. Xiao Er replied.
"Hahahaha, this is a bit of a lift-up for me, I'm far away in Luoyang, how can I take care of here. β
"Hehe, Meng Ye, you are polite, all the ten miles and eight towns in this Dongjun area are your students, who can not give Meng Ye some face, our small shop can only be so peaceful by you. β
"You are really good at talking, I understand it, just come to me if you have anything. β
"Master Xie, you are resting inside, and the small one is beckoning the guests below. β
"Let's go down. β
Saying that, Xiao Er Teng went downstairs, and Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng heard the sound of this Meng Ye walking into the guest room on their left.
It wasn't long after the upstairs was quiet, and then I heard footsteps walking at the staircase, Dong Dong Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng heard someone knocking on the door of the girl on the right, and after a while, there was a sound of opening the door, and this person shouted: "Master Weng." β
"Shhhhh Hearing the girl's response, she fell silent.
Shi Lao hurriedly put his ear close to the wall on the right, the wall was very thin, and a slight sound came, only to hear a man's voice say: "Master Weng, the goods are all placed in the backyard according to your orders." β
"Have other people stay on guard all night in case something unexpected happens. β
"Don't worry, Lord Weng, we have come safely so far, and then through Liang State, we will basically arrive in our country. β
"Don't be careless, if there is a mistake, you will not be in danger, so quit. β
"Yes, don't worry, the little one understands. β
After a while, the stairs creaked again, and there was a sound of going downstairs, and the upstairs returned to calm, and Zhang Yifeng said, "Old Shi, how can we find out the details of this woman?"
"Zhang Tunchang, this woman's martial arts are strong, I have seen it with my own eyes, it is difficult to control her with your own strength, I can't help in this regard, now it seems that we should go down to control one of their people, ask this woman for details. β
"Okay, let's do it, and go to the backyard at midnight. β
Time was passing quietly, and the drum of the three watches of 'dong-dongdong' sounded, and Shi Lao said softly: "Zhang Tunchang, let's start acting." β
"Okay, let's go quietly. β
Two people opened the door and walked down the stairs cautiously with their legs and feet, the lobby was empty, and saw that the gate leading to the street had been latched (shuΔn), and there was a small door leading to the backyard behind the lobby, Shi Lao quietly came to the small door and gently pushed it, and found that the door was hidden, and walked through the small door by the candlelight of the lantern under the eaves of the porch, and saw a large courtyard, Shi Lao looked around and saw that there were more than a dozen carriages neatly parked in the northwest corner of the courtyard, Shi Lao made a gesture to Zhang Yifeng, and the two of them surrounded it togetherγ
"Well, bring me another bowl of wine to drink. Hearing the sound of talking, Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng immediately squatted behind a carriage, listened carefully, and then 'hu-hu-hu-' The sound of snoring, it turned out to be a person watching the car next door talking in a dream, and then looking inside, there were more than a dozen people lying on the grass on the ground, snoring like thunder, Shi Lao made a gesture to Zhang Yifeng to get the kid who slept alone next to the car to the lobby, Zhang Yifeng took out a steel knife and stepped forward and pushed the kid, who knew that this kid was motionless like a dead pig, full of wine, Zhang Yifeng simply carried him directly to his shoulder, only to hear him say: "Don't make trouble, brothers continue to drink." Then he picked up Zhang Yifeng's shoulder and continued to sleep, Zhang Yifeng carried the kid back to the lobby, Shi Lao followed closely behind, put it in a private room in the lobby, closed the door, lit the oil lamp, and then Zhang Yifeng pinched the kid hard, only to hear him open his eyes and say, "Brothers, are you drunk?"
"Boy, wake up, it's time to go. Zhang Yifeng said sarcastically.
At this time, the kid realized that he was not next to the car: "Ahhhhh......h
The boy asked in fear, "You... Be... Who, where is this?"
"Don't ask us who we are, or in the inn. Shi Lao replied and then asked, "Who is the master with you, and what is her name?"
"How do you know it's the Lord?" replied the boy, emboldened.
"Stop talking nonsense and quickly answer questions. Zhang Yifeng impatiently lowered the steel knife and threatened.
"Lord Weng is the granddaughter of King Wu, named Liu Xin. β
Shi Lao then asked, "Did you kill the few people who died in Woyang County?"
"It really has nothing to do with us, it's all the work of the Lord, who let those people rob our goods. β
"Is the cargo on the car a steel knife?"
"How do you know?"
"Less nonsense, answer yes or no. β
"It's a steel knife, a treasure knife that we can't make in a few lifetimes. β
"Then why do you continue to kill people at the Taiyuan County Inn?"
"They are officials, who have come to find out our details, and of course they can't leave any alive when they are discovered by the lord of Weng. β
"What are you transporting these steel knives for?"
"Do you still need to ask, transport it back to Wu Guo......"
Before the person finished speaking, he saw that the door of the room was kicked open, and then a black shadow broke into the room lightly, saying that it was too late and that it was fast, a cold and shining sword stabbed Shi Lao, Zhang Yifeng took advantage of the situation to open it with a steel knife, saying that it was too late and that was fast, thanks to Zhang Yifeng, who was born in a practicing family, successfully opened the sword, and the two of them fought in the private room for two rounds, the tables and chairs flew wildly, because the room was too small to be opened, the movements were very slow, Shi Lao fixed his eyes and saw that it was the strange woman who rushed in the ancient tomb.
Shi Lao hurriedly shouted: "Lord Weng, please stop, the old man just wants to ask you how to return to the ancient city." β
The woman didn't stop, and said while fighting: "I advised you not to get involved in the ancient city high school, don't listen to the advice, now coming here is a dead end, want to go back, hehehe, it's impossible, let me end your life, lest more people know my secret." β
"Lord Weng is really unreasonable, I haven't wanted to be an enmity with you from the beginning to the present. β
The woman pointed at Shi Lao and said, "Don't talk nonsense, you know too much, I'll clean you up after I get rid of this person." β
Zhang Yifeng replied: "The girl has a big breath, she wants to end me, hahaha, it's not that easy, let's talk about the three hundred rounds of the battle, try to see who ends whom." β
The battlefield of the two people gradually turned from the private room to the lobby, and the sound of ping-pong woke up Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng, who lived in the room on the left side of the Meng Ye, only to see this person who opened the door and took three steps to float down directly from the upper floor, and when he was about to fall above the heads of Zhang Yifeng and the girl, he directly separated the two with an unsheathed sword, and then he came to a 180-degree somersault and landed firmly between the two, and then shouted: "Stop, who dares to go wild in this post house, I don't want to die." β
The woman glanced at Meng Ye and shouted, "Who are you? Dare to take care of the affairs of the lord of Ben Weng, and don't want to live." β
"Oh, are you the lord, and you want to take care of me when you meet a nosy person like me. β
"Okay, then look at the sword. I saw that this woman could not say that she stabbed Meng Ye with a sword, who knew that this Meng Ye was not in a hurry at all, and when the tip of the sword seemed to be on her body, she suddenly turned around, and Meng Ye's whole body floated behind the woman like a piece of paper, and then floated away after taking something directly from her waist, only to see the woman touch her waist with her hand and shout: "Return my waist card." β
"Wu Weng Lord Liu Xin. I saw this Meng Ye read here, quickly stopped, raised the waist card above his head, bent down and said, "The grass folk drama Meng is offended, please forgive the lord, please Lord Weng a lot, don't fight with the grass people." β
Liu Xin, the owner of the Weng, took a look at the lobby, I don't know when he was surrounded by customers, the shopkeeper and his buddies surrounded a large group of people to watch the excitement, and he couldn't beat Ju Meng, even if he could defeat the opponent, what could he do in front of everyone, he endured his anger and took back the waist card from Ju Meng's hand, put away his sword, snorted, turned around and ran back to the room upstairs.
"Let's disperse, let's rest in the middle of the night, we have to hurry tomorrow." The shopkeeper shouted to disperse the crowd of onlookers.
Looking at the mess in the lobby, Ju Meng took out some silver from his arms and handed it to the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I have covered the loss in the store tonight." β
"Master Meng, you are too polite, I can bear this loss. The shopkeeper also said politely.
"If you want to take it, you will take it. β
Shi Lao and Zhang Yifeng saw that the drama Meng was so chivalrous and soft-hearted, and hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Thank you Meng Ye for breaking the siege, otherwise we will be really fierce and unlucky." β
"You're polite, when you're out and about, everyone will encounter difficulties, I don't know how you two will have a holiday with the lord Weng. β
Shi Lao stepped forward and whispered to the drama Meng: "It is inconvenient for Meng Ye to speak here, please take a step over there to speak." β
At this time, the shopkeeper said: "The third master, come to my room and say, I will guard the door for the third master." β
