Chapter 31: The Two Who Left the City Overnight
Where is the head catcher Xiao Hei in Yongjia County?
It's not in Yongjia County anymore.
Taking the long box from Feng Rui, he tried the length of the sword in his hand, so it didn't matter if it was a sword box or not, he quickly rode out of the city and went straight to the Taizhou Mansion of Yongjia County.
Hurry up and rush to Taizhou Mansion just after three o'clock, and the city gate has not yet opened.
The little black catcher flashed a waist card, and the defenders of the city quickly opened the door and released it.
After entering the city, it was also a gallop, and it did not stop until a remote courtyard in the western district of Taizhou Prefecture.
Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, the dark courtyard was immediately lit up.
A man dressed in a black plain suit and wearing a long knife at his waist welcomed Xiao Hei into the inner room.
There were already four people waiting in the inner room.
"Meet the Chief Catcher, meet Lord Qinglong!" Xiao Hei didn't talk much, so he hurriedly handed over the long box.
"Is this really the Heavenly Sword Box?" Lei Zhen took the long wooden box handed by Xiao Hei, rubbed it a few times in his hand, and handed it to the green dragon next to him.
"I haven't seen it either, but it is recorded in the secret record that the previous Qinglong fought with the Mobei Sword Saint, and the Mobei Sword Saint used to hold the Heavenly Sword is indeed a sword box of this size." Qinglong took it carefully and sniffed his nose gently, "Why does it smell fishy?" ”
Xiao Hei replied, "The villain doesn't know, but now that the descendants of the Feng family have opened a tavern, maybe they have been contaminated with some fishy smell during the period, right?" ”
Lei Zhen frowned, "How did you get it?" ”
The villain Yu Fengrui slowly approached, so familiar with the gangster. Last night, the villain brought a long sword with the size described by the adult, and under the pretext that it was very inconvenient to carry, he asked Feng Rui to find a box, and Feng Rui gave this to the villain. The villain saw that it looked very similar, and hurried over, whether it was something that the adults were looking for, and the villain did not dare to guarantee... The little black catcher replied.
Jinyi Weibei Town Fu Xuanwu said: "Why don't you arrest Fengrui directly?" It's a shame to interrogate! ”
Lei Zhen glanced at Xuanwu.
Qinglong shook his head and replied, "The Tongtian Sword Shrine is not only what the saints want, but also the righteous and evil sects in the rivers and lakes are looking for, and the Tongtian Sword Shrine in Mobei also wants to get it." ”
Lei Zhen frowned again and looked at the sword box carefully, and said as if he didn't have anything, "Little Yongjia County is a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, whoever dares to act recklessly against Fengrui, I'm afraid he won't survive the next day... ”
Jinyi Wei Nanzhen stroked Suzaku and nodded, "It is said that next to the brothers and sisters of the Feng family, there was an old beggar three years ago, is it a member of the beggar gang?" ”
"The old beggar of the beggar gang? Could it be the beggar gang Ke Zhenlong? Xuanwu asked.
Qinglong shook his head, "If it's just Ke Zhenlong, it can't protect the two brothers and sisters of the Feng family." And the back was full of worship: "The old beggar who followed the Feng family brothers and sisters is the beggar gang leader who participated in the first battle of Mobei back then, the eight remnant god beggars!" ”
Xuanwu was shocked, "Eight remnant beggars? It's been a good time since the first battle in Mobei, and at that time, the eight remnant gods were said to be already famous in the rivers and lakes, so wouldn't he... ”
Lei Zhen carefully looked at the sword box and replied casually, "Wudang Patriarch Zhang Zhenren lived to be two hundred and twelve years old. Nowadays, there are many famous places hidden in the rivers and lakes, and there are several people who are more than two years old, such as the Yin Lantern Master of Shaolin Temple... ”
Xuanwu's eyes looked at the Tongtian Sword Box in Lei Zhen's hand enthusiastically, "More than two hundred years old, I'm afraid it's not a land immortal." No wonder the saint wants to find this thing, but is there really a secret to immortal immortality on this thing? ”
Suzaku patted open Xuanwu's gaze, "Don't ask about things that shouldn't be asked!" ”
Lei Zhen opened the sword box in his hand, sniffed it carefully, and then shook his head, "I don't think this should be the sword box of Tongtian!" Not to mention anything else, if this is really the Tongtian Sword Box, why didn't the Eight Remnant God Beggars take it, but instead asked Feng Rui to give it away easily? The Eight Remnant God Beggars have experienced the Battle of Mobei, and they must know the Tongtian Sword Box, and they are sure that this is not the real Tongtian Sword Box! ”
Qinglong nodded: "Your analysis may be correct!" Then the tone of the conversation changed, and he continued, "But the Tongtian Sword and the Tongtian Sword Box are said to be very mysterious, and they must be obtained by people who are destined, maybe this is the chance of the saint?" ”
Lei Zhen shook his head, returned the long box to Qinglong, and looked at the little black catcher.
Xiao Hei was also unsure of the head, and when he saw Feng Rui take out the long box, his brain was hot, where did he think a lot.
At that time, there was a fever in the brain, and at this time, the little black catcher regained consciousness.
The little black catcher explained, "When the villain was holding the sword box, the sloppy old man in the courtyard really wanted to chase it out, but was stopped by Fengrui's sister Fengqi, and then the villain didn't dare to stop all the way... ”
"Could it be that the Eight Remnant God Beggars didn't find it? But you can't do it, can you? Suzaku glanced at the little black catcher.
Don't be in a hurry to ask for credit, just take something to fool them.
Qinglong said, "That's it! Leave the things first, and you go back and ask the little black catcher. ”
Lei Zhen nodded approvingly, and then instructed, "Remember, don't startle the snake, but be careful, I received news a few days ago that the head of Wudang, the Iron Crown Dazhen, and the Shaolin Yin Lantern Mage have left the mountain gate, and the sect leader of the Evil Sect of Ten Thousand Poisons, Yin Ji, the leader of the Blood Palm Gang, Li Cangtian and others seem to have also come to Yongjia County... ”
And then there's another guy who left the city overnight.
Zhang Defa climbed ashore from the icy water.
Since the things are in hand, the city naturally can't stay.
The so-called snake has a snake road, and rats have a mouse road, although the curfew is closed, it is difficult for people like Zhang Defa to be can't help it.
Zhang Defa touched the courtyard near the city wall, knocked on the door three times, slapped it once, and knocked it twice.
The courtyard door opened from the inside, and a person with triangular eyes and big buckteeth like a mouse looked at it and let Zhang Defa in.
"I said Zhang Defa, why did you come to me here when you were drenched?" The man who looked like a mouse did not light the lamp, and directly took Zhang Defa to a firewood room.
"Humph! Gopher, you said that you could do anything else, so naturally you went out of the city overnight. Zhang Defa took out the money in his arms, and wanted to take out some silver and throw it to the gopher, but when he touched it, it was empty, and then he remembered that the money had been lost.
"Out of town overnight? Did you do something again? The gopher moved a pile of hay out of the way, then pulled a plank open to reveal a black hole.
The entrance to the cave leads to the outside of the city.
"Hey, hey! Lao Tzu has done a big job, and he will soon get rich. Although Zhang Defa didn't take out the silver coin, he touched the jar of spices and recipes, which were no worse than silver tickets.
"A big vote? Did you rob Master Jia of Dongshi? ”
There are not many rich people in Yongjia City, and Master Jia of Dongshi is also the richest in the world.
The gopher stretched out his hand, his tunnel was not free.
"Master Jia's family has a lot of nursing homes, and I can't do it alone."
Zhang Defa shook his head, but he was secretly happy in his heart, although the things he robbed this time were not as good as robbing Master Jia, but they were a lot for him and the others.
"My brother didn't bring any money today, and you will definitely make up for it one day."
With that, he pushed away the gopher and burrowed into the ground.
The sky was bright.
At the west end of Zhenwucun Village, twelve miles west of Yongjia County, the knocker of a family was slammed.
"Why do you come early in the morning to disturb my dreams? If you don't have a good reason, don't blame your brother for being unkind to you! A person who was a little fatter than Zhang Defa said angrily.
It seems very unpleasant to be woken up.
This person is Zhang Defa's sworn brother, whose real name is Pang Gang, and he is nicknamed the fierce butcher.
Pang Gang's three generations are all butchers, and he kills pigs and dogs every day, so he is naturally fierce.
It is said that there will be good luck in this killing, but things in the world are so strange.
Pang Gang won more than he gambled, and even asked him to win a book of martial arts secrets in the hands of a Mobei swordsman when he was young.
The martial arts cheats are called killing qi tips, although they are low-level cheats, they can really cultivate the internal power of true qi.
Once a person who practices martial arts can cultivate the internal power of true qi, he can be regarded as a master of the rivers and lakes.
So Pang Gang, who became a master of the rivers and lakes, co-opted some hooligans and established a gang himself.
As for why it's called the Axe Gang?
Because swords are too expensive, the gangsters can only be equipped with axes to chop wood and kill pigs!
Zhang Defa trembled and said, "Big... Big brother, I... I am.. It is from you ... You have made a fortune ... ”
"Rich? Hum! How can you make a fortune? Pang Gang glanced at the sworn brother.
Back then, I drank too much wine for a while, so I bowed to him.
After waking up, Pang Gang regretted it, but the people of the rivers and lakes were righteous, so he could only admit it.
"Hey... Hey! Can... But it's called. Tell my little brother to touch... Ran into it. Pang Gang looked at the stammering Zhang Defa with great difficulty, so he poured him a cup of hot tea.
After a cup of hot tea, Zhang Defa is better.
"Big brother, please look!" Zhang Defa usually took out a porcelain jar and a booklet from his bosom.
Pang Gang took it very puzzled.
A porcelain jar and a booklet are worth a few dollars, so what kind of fortune can you make like this?
"Big brother doesn't know, but now something is rare in Yongjia County, a fool opened a tavern...
Zhang Defa added oil and vinegar to tell the matter of Fengrui.
"In this porcelain jar is the spice of the five-spice smoked chicken, and the booklet is the ancestral recipe of the Feng family. With these two things, the money will roll in in the future, that is, this ancestral recipe is sold in the windward building casually, hehe, at least worth a thousand taels! ”
"One thousand taels! Is it really worth that much? Pang Gang's eyes were bigger than a cow, and he couldn't believe it.
"The eldest brother is also a frequent visitor to the Windward Building, and how much money does a roast chicken for one or two pieces of silver make for the Windward Building, this is still too little." Zhang Defa carefully placed the porcelain jar and ancestral recipe on the table.
Why doesn't Zhang Defa enjoy these things for himself?
First, he Zhang Defa is also righteous, and secondly, he is afraid that he will not be able to control such a big fortune.
"Brother, this is extremely true!"
Pang Gang thought that the flowing water in the Windward Building was not less than a thousand taels a day, if Zhang Defa was telling the truth, then this spice and ancestral recipe were really priceless.
Zhang Defa is illiterate, but Pang Gang is, which is also one of the reasons why Zhang Defa came to find Pang Gang.
It's just that Pang Gang picked up the booklet and looked at it a few times, and his face immediately turned cold.
"Brother, are you taking me for a fool? It's just a broken book! Pang Gang angrily threw the pamphlet at Zhang Defa.
Zhang Defa hurriedly picked it up and looked at it, but he only knew the word roast chicken, and this 'ancestral recipe' only had the word roast chicken.
"Ahh That Feng fool dared to lie to Lao Tzu, and Lao Tzu went to kill him! Zhang De was angry and wanted to return to Yongjia County.
Pang Gang next to him picked up the porcelain jar and sniffed it, but stopped Zhang Defa.
