Chapter 15: The Reception Feast
Liuding Street.
Li Yi held on to the hilt of the long knife and stepped on the streets of the past.
On the corner of the street, a familiar figure comes into view.
Li Yi walked a few steps quickly and came to the other party.
"Great, sir..."
The old beggar who was in business was shocked by Li Yi's outfit and trembled with horror.
"Lao Chen, it's me!"
The familiar voice drilled into his cochlea, and Chen Dafu's cloudy eyes widened suddenly.
"Brother Yi?"
Li Yi smiled slightly, stepped forward and squatted on Chen Dafu's side.
The latter hurriedly moved the nest.
Li Yihun didn't care, but just asked him about the current situation.
"This is the bamboo mat you bought?"
Li Yi's gaze fell on the roll of the mat beside Chen Dafu.
Chen Dafu also lost his initial restraint at this time, and said with a smile: "I listened to Brother Yi before, and I bought a bamboo mat." I don't think I can be promoted in the next life and no longer ask for food. β
Li Yi was silent for a moment and said, "Wait until tomorrow when I go to the yamen to ask for you, and see if I can get a road guide." β
Chen Dafu was stunned, but he didn't have much expectation in his heart, more just stunned.
"It's useless for me to be a guide at this age, but it's Zhang Yuan's kid ......"
"Zhang Yuan?" Li Yi's heart moved, "Where is he asking for food now?" β
Chen Dafu was a little worried: "Earlier, I saw him being chased by Lai Er on Beimen Street, and Lai Er was still with three people, and I don't know where to chase the child. β
Li Yi's heart sank, but he thought of the few beggars who had followed Zhang Yuan on Nanmen Street before.
"Old Chen, where do you see them going?"
"I'm going to Ten Mile Lane."
After receiving the reply, Li Yi no longer hesitated, and after stuffing the two buns brought from the yamen to the old beggar, he got up and ran towards Shili Lane!
In place, Chen Dafu held a bun in one hand, and looked at the direction of the young man's departure in a daze.
β¦
Ten Mile Lane.
Li Yi ran all the way to the alley of Beimen Street, but did not find the little beggars Zhang Yuan and Lai Er.
Li Yi didn't stop, those beggars who didn't have any beggings came from Beimen Street, no matter whether Zhang Yuan had an accident or not, the other party would return to his nest.
At this time, at the door of a closed dumpling shop on Beimen Street, several lazy beggars were begging.
The sun sets in the west, and the warm afterglow is like the waves of the ebbing tide, about to return to the depths of the night sea.
On the street, a figure in a black soap suit stepped on the afterglow and walked straight to the dumpling shop on the street.
"Who is Lai Er?"
There was no trace of warmth in the voice, and the beggars gathered in front of the store all looked sideways at Li Yi.
After seeing the clothes and trapping clothes that Li Yi was wearing, several beggars obviously showed a look of fear.
Seeing that no one answered, Li Yi's eyes fell on the beggar closest to him, and he spoke again: "Who is Lai Er!" β
This time, he lifted his left hand, which was holding the knife.
The beggar raised his hand and pointed at a tall and thin beggar in the middle, "HeβHe's Lai Er..."
Li Yi took a step forward, his eyes like a tiger's eyes.
"Lai Er, let me ask you, where is the little beggar you led people to chase before?"
β¦β¦
After a while, Li Yi, who finished asking, breathed a sigh of relief.
After his interrogation, Lai Er and the others did not catch up with Zhang Yuan, and the other party should be hiding now.
Looking at the sky, Li Yi shook his head slightly.
Let's see if we can find it tomorrow.
Looking at the beggars standing in a row obediently again, Li Yi warned: "In the future, you will ask for food on Beimen Street, if you dare to go to other streets, be careful to break your legs!" β
After looking around coldly, Li Yi continued: "Also, if you want food, you can ask for food, if anyone dares to do sneaking and cheating again, I will never spare it!" β
After speaking, Li Yi was about to leave, but suddenly his figure was stunned.
In his mind, a new progress bar has appeared.
[Occupation: Catching Fast]
[Progress: 5/100]
β¦β¦
At the end of the Shen period, Tongyue Restaurant.
The guy Zhao Shi was about to hold the lamp, but he saw a man wearing a fast clothes walk in at the door of the lobby.
At this time, the sky was dark on the street, and Zhao Shi didn't see the specific appearance of the other party clearly, but skillfully stepped forward to greet: "Inside the poor master..."
"Huh? Li Er? β
Zhao Shi's brain was down for a short time, and he didn't come back to his senses until Li Yi responded with a smile.
At this time, Jia Youyou, who heard the movement in the lobby, opened the curtain of the hall and shook his head.
On the wine case, Jia Youyou looked at the clothes on Li Yi's body with mixed feelings.
"What did you do today?"
"Well, fortunately, Lord Yin of the Mansion appreciated it, directly registered and made a register, and issued an official brand."
Jia Youyou sighed faintly: "I have long seen that you are not a person who is willing to be mediocre, and being a buddy here in me has indeed wronged you..."
The more Li Yi listened, the more wrong he became, and he hurriedly said: "Don't misunderstand the shopkeeper, I am a fast catcher during the day, and I also deliver food to the restaurant when I am free at night." β
"Huh?" Jia Youyou was stunned and said, "You still want to deliver food?" β
Li Yi smiled and asked, "Is there a wine menu today?" β
β¦β¦
ζζ.
Li Yi took the equipment of the husband and beat the first drum on time with Sun Cheng, who came to make peace.
After the watch, Li Yi carried the gong and the gong mallet, and rushed to the fireworks alley to make an appointment with Wang Zhutou.
At the door of the restaurant, Sun Cheng was carrying a lantern, Jia was holding his hand, and Zhao Shi was holding a rag, and all three of them looked at Li Yi's back as he left.
Things in the world are really changing rapidly......
β¦
Fireworks Alley and Chunfeng Building, even the immortals are also romantic here.
Wang Jianchun stood side by side on the street with several colleagues and brothers.
Fireworks Lane is different from other places, although the city has been curfew, but the green building, casino, theater garden, Goolan and other places can stay until dawn.
Wang Jianchun glanced at Li Yi, who was looking east and west, and said with a smile: "Xun'an won't be the first time to come, right?" β
On the side, Lupin followed up and quipped: "It's good for the first time, my brother will help you find someone with experience who will hurt you later, and it will never make you feel uncomfortable." β
"......" the corners of Li Yi's mouth twitched.
He just came here to get to know his colleagues and build a good relationship.
As for the tick bar or something, it's just incidental.
"Brothers, which one should we go to first?"
Li Yi's face was slightly red, and he looked excitedly at the flower building on the street not far away.
Although it is only incidental to visit the flower building, but it is still necessary to see the customs here, not to mention anything else!
Wang Jianchun didn't decide directly, but looked at another colleague who was a little older, "Xie Tangshi, how much is the reward I have for Cai Tielong this time?" β
Xie Hui smiled and said, "It depends on which one Wang Zhutou is going to tonight." β
After receiving Xie Hui's reply, Wang Jianchun glanced at the group of four again, and immediately had a plan.
"Go to Chunfeng Tower first, and then go to Tinglan Courtyard, if you are fast enough, go to Juxiang Courtyard again."
Xie Hui's beard trembled when he heard this.
These three places are the famous gold caves in Fireworks Alley, this line brings him a total of five people, if you go to all three places, not to mention whether you can walk around tomorrow, just the silver that needs to be spent......
Even if Wang Jianchun's reward is increased by fifty percent, it is not enough.
Coughing lightly, Xie Hui reminded: "Give me support tonight, whoever comes out first will invite the next guest." β
