"You mean, someone ......" I was halfway through my words, hesitated again, and presented the black handkerchief in my hand: "Oh, thank you lady's handkerchief, can I take it home and wash it before returning it to you?" ”

"You don't have to pay it back, maybe you'll be able to use it tomorrow. This bag is mint leaf foam, wash the handkerchief and then decorate it into the mezzanine, and the autopsy tomorrow morning will not be too smelly. Mu Niangzi said, stuffed a brocade bag into my hand, smiled faintly, turned around and walked up the stairs.

My heart trembled, what did she mean? Post-mortem tomorrow morning? Could it be that someone will die? How did she know about it? Or is she already planning who to die?

"Jianghu, do you want me to free up this burden for you?" Ah Wu asked when he saw me come out.

I came back to my senses, "Oh, no hurry, I'll go out on the street first and see if there's anything else to do." ”

"Then you're busy." Ah Wu nodded and walked away.

I went out of the inn, and when I looked up, the sun was also gloomy, and I thought it was clouded by the light, just as I was feeling at the moment.

"Jianghu brothers." Song Erlang's voice was full of excitement and stopped beside me.

"What are you?" I looked at the cart in front of him, and there were a lot of jars and jars on it.

Song Erlang pointed diagonally opposite: "The job I just found, send wine to the Yuelai Restaurant opposite." It's all good wine dragged from a thousand cups of non-drunk shops. Free today? I'll treat you to dinner. ”

I glanced at his wet suit against his neck and waved my hand embarrassedly: "No, it's not easy for you to make money." ”

"It's okay, just find a small shop and have two drinks. Hehe, you wait for me for a while, and I'll be fine right away. ”

"Then I'll help you."

As I spoke, I helped him push the cart and soon arrived in the backyard of Yuelai Restaurant.

"Move to this house and put it away, be careful." The shopkeeper is a little chubby, with a mustache, and is commanding on the side.

Song Erlang and I had one jar per person, and it didn't take long to unload the wine on the cart.

"Hehe, shopkeeper Liu, it's all moved." Song Erlang smiled and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

"Oh, good." Shopkeeper Liu nodded, turned around and left.

"Hey, shopkeeper Liu, hehe, this salary ...... Hehe. Song Erlang asked with two steps.

Shopkeeper Liu's face was full of disdain: "How many copper plates are these?" I can still rely on your money, can I? ”

"I ......" Song Erlang was a little anxious: "But didn't we say that the salary would be settled at that time?" Otherwise, you should be like the Jianghu Inn, and let the guys in the wine shop send it to you. ”

"Aye, do you want to rely on other people's wages again?" A twelve or thirteen-year-old boy ran out and yelled at Shopkeeper Liu: "You are not afraid that Qin Cha will know about beating you!" ”

"Alright, you're everywhere! Who's going to pay for it? Shopkeeper Liu frowned at the young man, and waved his hand at Song Erlang: "Isn't it just fifty copper plates, come and get the money." I'm not as stingy as you are. ”

After Song Erlang received his salary, we found a small shop in the middle of nowhere and sat down, and the store served us a pot of wine and two appetizers, one meat and one vegetarian, and then went to the backyard to get busy, and the whole house was just the two of us, just like in our own home. After two glasses of wine, the relationship is also a lot closer, and each of them has talked about their recent situation, and they are really connected to the same fate.

"Hey, brother in the rivers and lakes, you said that we are not lazy people, but we don't have a good life, we get up early every day and are greedy for darkness, so we can only mix food and clothing, hey, it's all tears when you talk too much. Come on, do it! Song Erlang complained, attributing everything to fate, and sighed helplessly.

I drank all the wine from my glass. Destiny? Hehe, everyone can't decide their own birth, but how to go in the future, it's not completely impossible to change, maybe you can fight hard, while you're still young, maybe one day, the dream will really come true?

"There is wine and meat, and you complain that your fate is not good, compared to those soldiers on the battlefield, and those people who fled, you are already living a fairy-like life." One said from behind him.

"Xiao Mu!" Song Erlang slapped the table and said happily: "Are you a dog?" The nose is so smart. We are in such a hidden place, you can find it? ”

I also hurriedly got up: "Brother Mu, come, sit." ”

Xiao Mu smiled, sat down opposite me, glanced at a few side dishes, and didn't seem to be very interested: "You guys eat, don't worry about me." I'll take a look at how the work I've told you is doing. ”

Song Erlang glanced at me: "Xiao Mu, he ...... Wouldn't the Jianghu brothers also be the secret agents you want to recruit? ”

I was also surprised: "Second Brother Song is also a secret agent?" ”

"I ...... Hehe, it's still being assessed. Song Erlang straightened up, his face full of pride.

Xiao Mu shook his fan, his eyes were deep, he didn't know what he was thinking, and after we made a joke, he said slowly: "It has been a while since Zhujiang was exposed, and the news should have reached Tubo." Qin Cha means that they will never give up, and it is estimated that the next wave of fine work will be sent soon, so we must not take it lightly, it is best to pull them out as soon as they step into Xiangzhou City, and then lead them by the nose. ”

"Hehe, you can rest assured, I don't dare to say anything else, if you want to know people, I Song Lao Er will never be ambiguous, as long as there is a fine work in front of me, I will immediately arrest him and hand him over to you. Hehe, will I be able to meet Chin Cha then? Song Erlang took another sip of wine, and became excited for a while, as if he had seen Qincha and was reused.

Xiao Mu sneered: "If you don't brag, will you die?" Don't you just run around the city all day long and get to know a lot of people? If he really came to work carefully, how could he have inquired about the affairs of the government in the first place, most likely as a merchant or a refugee to settle down in the city first, and then knock on the side to find out information. But with so many people coming and going every day, can you tell the difference? ”

"Uh...... This...... I can take his time to paraphrase his words. ”

"Nope." Xiao Mu said: "Even if you find a suspicious person, you must remember that you must not startle the snake." The Chin Cha is also counting on using them to help deliver the news. ”

"Well, that's, that's." Song Erlang nodded again and again.

"I asked you to spy on Mu Niangzi, what's wrong? Did you find anything? Xiao Mu asked suddenly.

"Oh......"

"I didn't find anything, I think Mu Niangzi should be fine, but she is really shrewd and very good at business." Song Erlang replied quickly.

"You...... Second Brother Song is also spying on Mu Niangzi? I looked at Xiao Mu in surprise.

"Otherwise, if it's not to spy on her, why do I go to eat noodles every day?" Song Erlang smiled: "However, she is different from ordinary traders, although she runs such a big inn, she is not completely to make money, but is doing good in disguise." To be honest, she's quite admirable based on that alone. Hehe, the point is that it's pretty good. ”

Xiao Mu looked at him with disdain: "So, you were fascinated by beauty and forgot the task I assigned?" ”

Song Erlang waved his hand again and again: "I haven't forgotten it, but I really haven't found anything." Hey, I said, do you have any preconceptions about her? A widow, helpless, is pitiful enough, and you still stare at her as a bad person. ”

"I have always been very accurate in seeing people, there is definitely something wrong with that Mu Niangzi, the more I don't find it, the more it means that she will cover it up." Xiao Mu said firmly, and continued to look at me: "Li Jianghu, what about you?" You have been giving her tofu every day for the past few days, and you have been in contact with her, but what have you found? ”

"I didn't ...... No. "I was a little nervous for a moment, thinking about the two accidents that had happened in quick succession, and lowered my head in a panic.

"Li Jianghu, then you still continue to stare at Mu Niangzi. Song Erlang, from today onwards, go and keep an eye on Yuelai Restaurant, not only the shopkeeper Liu, but even the guests who ate had said anything unusual, I have to remember clearly. Xiao Mu commanded.

"Don't worry, we haven't known each other for a day or two, the news you want to inquire about, when did I disappoint you." Song Erlang picked up the wine jug: "Really don't want a glass?" ”

"I still have something to do, you think they're all as free as you are?" Xiao Mu said, shaking the fan, and walked out of the shop.

I breathed a sigh of relief, I did hide something about Mu Niangzi giving me a handkerchief and mint leaves, but if I said it, would Xiao Mu be even more suspicious of Mu Niangzi?

Song Erlang is right, she has been doing good, such a kind woman, how can she be meticulous?

"Brother Jianghu, what do you want?" Song Erlang poked my elbow and asked.

"Oh, nothing, I really didn't expect you to be in Chamu Lady before. Hey, I really don't understand, why does Xiao Mu think there's something wrong with her? ”

Song Erlang smiled evilly: "I guess, that little Mu is afraid that she is interesting to that Mu lady, I want to borrow our hands to find out her details, and then ...... Huh, understood? ”

I shook my head: "I don't understand. ”

Song Erlang looked at me with disgust: "Only by knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent can one win a hundred battles." Mu Niangzi's temperament exuded all over her body, and her means of dealing with the world, at first glance, are from a rich and noble family. That Xiao Mu, a poor scholar, named Sun Shan, divination and fortune-telling for others every day to make a living, although he looks like a talent, but in addition, he has no long things, how can he get into the eyes of Mu Niangzi? Only if we help him understand all the circumstances of Mu Niangzi can we have a target. Don't forget, Mu Niangzi is the sister of Mu County Lieutenant, if you marry her, I don't know how many years of struggle you will have to lose. ”

"Huh? Do you think Xiao Mu asked us to check Mu Niangzi because of this? ”

"Or else? I'll tell you, my eyes never miss a person. Brother Jianghu, you are an honest man, and you actually listened to Xiao Mu's fools. Xiao Mu, this guy is not a fuel-efficient lamp, hmph, fake public and private, if I really want to be a secret agent, I will work hard for him? You wait and see, when he finds out the details of Mu Niangzi, he guarantees that there will be nothing wrong with you. ”

I was anxious: "What about the secret agent?" ”

"Don't worry, since it is the task given to him by the Qin Mission, Xiao Mu will definitely still select some people. I mean, when he and Mu Niangzi get along, you won't have to waste time on Mu Niangzi anymore. ”

I was silent with my wine. Waste of time? No, how could it be? I'm very happy to be able to talk to Mrs. Mu. It's just that I didn't expect Xiao Mu to like her too? Wait, how did I come up with this "also" word? Except for Xiao Mu who likes Mu Niangzi, who else?
