Zhao Jiangxi still held the hand of the small bolt with one hand, drew a big circle with the other hand and said: "Such a big bed, can't you sleep the two of us?" ”

The little bolt nodded and said, "It's okay, it's okay." Go home, go home. ”

The four of them were walking on the street, and when they were about to reach the west end of the village, a young woman carrying firewood came to them, but when they saw this woman hunched over, carrying a large bundle of firewood, her slender body seemed to be overwhelmed, and her delicate cheeks oozed beads of sweat, and she was panting and walked past the four people step by step.

This young woman was Ye Tong, who had just returned from chopping firewood from the mountains, and she didn't want to meet Zhao Jiangxi and the four of them.

Several people glanced at Ye Tong and continued to walk forward.

Zhang Jin took a few steps forward, but stopped, turned around and caught up with Ye Tong in a few big strides and said, "Madam, give me firewood, let me come." ”

Ye Tong stopped, looked up at Zhang Jin, but he didn't know him, he was stunned for a moment, and said, "Thank you, official, don't bother you, this is home." ”

"No hassle." Zhang Jin couldn't help but say, so he took a large bundle of firewood on Ye Tong's back, held it in one hand, and said, "Madam, you and I lead the way." ”

The woman thanked her and walked in front, followed by Zhang Jin with great strides.

Li Qian shook his head when he saw it, and secretly laughed in his heart.

Seeing this, Zhao Jiangxi laughed out loud and said, "This old Zhang, don't look at the rough appearance, your heart is very soft." Ha ha! After laughing, he asked the little bolt again, "Who is this woman?" ”

"Oh, it's a long story, but her husband is a bandit...... " replied the little bolt.

Before he finished speaking, Li Qian on the side was overwhelmed by alcohol, and he leaned on a big locust tree on the side of the street and vomited.

Zhao Jiangxi covered his mouth and nose with one hand, and the hand that was still holding the small bolt with one hand sped up and walked towards the old house.

The two of them entered the house and went straight to the west room, and they both felt very sleepy from the wine, so they both lay on the bed kang with their clothes.

As soon as Zhao Jiangxi was next to the pillow, he remembered something, looked at the roof and said, "Bolt, what's the matter with the woman in the bandit leader?" ”

Xiao Bolt only felt sore all over his body at this time, and his eyelids were also very heavy, and after listening to Zhao Jiangxi's question, he replied without a word: "The woman's name is Ye Tong, and his man's name is Mu Xiaofei, who is already dead, and he is buried near the rocky gangzi in Xishan, and he is the leader of the gang of robbers who killed my father and mother in our village last time." Later, Mu Xiaofei escaped from the village, thinking that Ye Tong was dead, and he didn't want Ye Tong to be rescued by Brother Wen, so he stayed in the village. Later, Mu Xiaofei went to assassinate Ruofeng ...... for Ye Tong"

The little bolt's words were intermittent, and his voice became smaller and smaller, as if he was very sleepy, and there was no sound when he said this.

Zhao Jiangxi heard Mu Xiaofei's words of assassinating Ruofeng, although the voice of the little bolt was very weak, but he still heard it really, Zhao Jiangxi was excited, and most of the wine woke up.

At this time, I suddenly heard the sound of the courtyard door closing, as if it was the sound of the courtyard door closing, and then there was the sound of footsteps entering the outer room, and then the sound of gently closing the outer room door.

Zhao Jiangxi then remembered that he forgot to close the door when he and Xiao Zhuzi entered the house, and then listened carefully to the footsteps and gently came to the door of the west room, stopped for a moment, and then gently closed the half-hidden door of the house, and went to the east room.

"Probably Li Qian is back." Zhao Jiangxi thought again.

After a while, I heard a sound again, and I heard that the courtyard door was wide open, and then the door of the outer room was opened with a "bang", and a voice said in a rough voice: "Holy Lord, I'm back!" "It turned out to be Zhang Jin.

This shout made Zhao Jiangxi wake up most of the time, and when he was frightened, there was no sound in the outer room for a while, probably because Zhang Jin suddenly realized that he was reckless after drinking, or maybe Li Qian came out in time to stop him.

Zhao Jiangxi was in a cold sweat, looked back at the small bolt, but saw that he seemed to have fallen asleep, and after a while, he heard a "squeak" and the sound of the door of the outer room closing gently, and someone went to the east room.

Zhao Jiangxi tiptoed out of the West House, and sure enough, when he saw that the door of the outer room was closed, he entered the East Room headwide, but saw Li Qian lying on the bed kang.

Li Qian saw that it was Zhao Jiangxi coming in, so he panicked and turned over from the bed kang.

"Where's Zhang Jin?" Zhao Jiangxi asked in a low voice.

"I just went back to my room." Li Qiandao.

Zhao Jiangxi whispered the words of the little bolt just now to Li Qian.

"In this way, could it be that Mu Xiaofei killed the protector of the country? Even if it's not, I'm afraid it can't be out of it. Li Qian speculated.

"However, that Mu Xiaofei is already dead, and the grave is near the mass grave in Xishan." Zhao Jiangxi Road.

"Why would an assassin who assassinated the prince of the dynasty be buried here? I'm afraid that there is a problem with this small stone village! Li Qian frowned.

"Let's go to Xishan as soon as possible, maybe we will ......," Li Qian continued.

As soon as he said this, he seemed to feel some noise outside the door, so he hurriedly said: "Let's rest quickly, and we will talk about other things later." ”

Zhao Jiangxi nodded, then quickly retreated, walked to the West House, and bumped into the little bolt coming out, and asked Zhao Jiangxi drunkenly: "Brother is not resting in the house, what are you doing when you come out?" ”

Zhao Jiangxi said: "It's in a hurry, it's convenient, I'm afraid I have eaten too much wine." ”

The little bolt replied, "Me too." He shook himself out of the outer door and walked to the latrine in the northwest corner of the courtyard.

It was a rainy afternoon, Zhao Jiangxi, Li Qian and Zhang Jin found Mu Xiaofei's grave in a mountain forest at the foot of the west mountain in the west of the village.

In front of Mu Xiaofei's grave, there is a simple stone tablet, engraved with such a line of words: "The tomb of the deceased husband Mu Xiaofei, his wife Ye Tong weeps, August 18 of the first year of Qinghe." Obviously, this confirms Xiao Zizi's words, the woman named Ye Tong is indeed the wife of Mu Xiaofei, the owner of this tomb.

And the date engraved on the tombstone also made Li Qian gasp, because the date was clearly the year of the new dynasty, not the year of the imperial dynasty.

You must know that Fengyuan County and its surrounding areas, including Xiaoshi Village, were not captured by the rebels, which means that these areas were still under the rule of the former imperial dynasty.

But why does this tombstone use the date of the new dynasty?

Obviously, even if the person who buried Mu Xiaofei was not an accomplice in the assassination of the Protector of the Kingdom, he was also a person on the same road as Fang Shuyun.

So who will these people be? How many secrets are still hidden in this small stone village?

The eyes of the three people turned to another place at the same time, a small temple, not far from the north, with red walls and yellow tiles, surrounded by beautiful bamboos, which seemed particularly quiet.

Li Qian said, "Let's go there and have a look." ”

Zhao Jiangxi nodded, feeling very strange in his heart: "That day, I walked around the village and outside the village of Xiaoshuzi Village, why didn't I see this temple?" Was it inadvertently omitted? But how could a huge temple be missed? Today I'm going to see what that is. ”
