Chapter 55: I Can't Bear It
"Good!"
A group of diners threw money at the storyteller, and the old man smiled and put away the copper coin, bowed his hand slightly to the crowd, and turned around and walked out.
"Let's go up and see who gave him the manuscript."
The two of them left the restaurant, followed the old man through a few streets, and walked into a remote alley.
Seeing the old man enter the house, Dao Jianxiao glanced around, pulled Ling'er and flew down in the old man's yard.
As soon as the storyteller was about to close the door, there were two more people in front of the meeting, and he was startled: "Who are you?" ”
Ling'er's face sank: "Tell me, who asked you to talk about the book?" ”
The old man hurriedly took out the manuscript: "This, this is what a young master of the Sun family asked me to say." ”
"Which young master of the Sun family?!"
"It's called Sun Le, I heard that it is a relative of Sun's mansion, some time ago, our storytellers received his manuscript, and each of them gave ten taels of silver, let us finish this manuscript."
"Sun Le?!"
Ling'er gritted her teeth: "Where is this person now?" ”
The storyteller only promised: "This girl, we don't know, we only know how to make money by telling stories, and we don't know anything else." ”
Ling'er snorted and directly tore up the manuscript in her hand: "If you let me hear you say this nonsense again, be careful that I smash your stall!" ”
After coming out of the storyteller's house, Ling'er's face was gloomy with anger: "I'm going to kill this guy!" ”
Dao Jian shook his head with a smile: "Unless Sun Le leaves the house, it will be difficult." ”
Ling'er glared at Dao Jian and smiled: "What are you kidding, you are a five-grade martial artist, a killer, can't you enter the Sun family and kill someone?" ”
Dao Jian shook his head with a smile: "No, this is Yunze County, not Qiantang County, not to mention that I have one with me." ”
Ling'er turned around angrily and left.
Jian Xiao followed behind him: "Although we can't kill people, we can find out the situation of the Sun family and hand it over to Lu Shen, isn't this guy going to deal with the Sun family?" ”
"It's time to avenge you."
Ling'er hesitated for a moment and nodded: "Is there anyone in the Sword Alliance here?" ”
Dao Jian shook his head with a smile: "I don't know." ”
Ling'er lowered her head and pondered for a moment: "Let's go to Huajie, our people are here, this time I want to find out all the news of the Sun family." ”
"This damn Sun Le, I'm going to make him pay a heavy price."
.......
On Qiantang West Street, Lu Shen was lying on a rocking chair and closed his eyes to recuperate, and a small guy walked over: "Chief, the county lieutenant has arrived." ”
Lu Shen opened his eyes, and a black and fat smiling face was facing him.
Lu Shen smiled: "My brother, this will scare people to death." ”
Yun Conglong laughed: "I see that you sleep very sweetly." ”
"The main thing is that there is nothing to do lately, so I can only stay on this West Street."
"Nothing?" Yun Conglong sat opposite: "You have nothing to do, I'm very busy, and Lord Huang is so busy that I can't find anyone every day." ”
"Lord Huang is a county guard now, so he naturally has to be busy."
Yun Conglong sighed: "The knife warrior hasn't been found yet, the adults in Jiangnan Province haven't done anything, staring at Qiantang County all day long, Lord Huang and I can only take troops out to patrol every day, what kind of killer do you say this knife warrior is, why doesn't he come out at all?" ”
"Maybe you've already left Qiantang."
Lu Shen frowned: "My lord, you think, if the knife warrior is still here, he will definitely make a move, after all, the assassination of our Dafeng officials in the Northern Wei Dynasty is still continuing." ”
"The top and second leaders of the surrounding counties have been slaughtered, you see that our counties, except for Liu Chen, are all peaceful."
Yun Conglong nodded: "What you said is true, but what if that kid is still waiting in Qiantang for an opportunity to assassinate?" ”
Lu Shen sighed: "Just drink boldly and eat meat boldly with confidence, that knife warrior is definitely not in Qiantang County." ”
"Are you so sure?"
Lu Shen pointed around: "I'm also a Qiantang County Governor now, but there is not a single guard by my side, and I am sleeping in a dignified manner by this lake, if that guy really wants to assassinate, I won't stop eating long ago?" ”
Yun Conglong looked at the lively crowd around him, and then looked at the lake behind Lu Shen, and couldn't help nodding: "That's right, what you said makes sense." ”
"So, brother, that guy must not be in our Qiantang County, you and Lord Huang can sit back and relax."
Yun Conglong was still a little worried: "But what if the top tracks it down?" ”
Lu Shen said with a smile: "My lord, you go back tonight and lead the troops to chase along the direction leading to Yunze County." ”
Yun Conglong was stunned: "What does this mean?" ”
Lu Shen said with a smile: "Qiantang County found the traces of the knife knight, chased and killed dozens of miles along the way, the county lieutenant went into battle shirtless, and killed the enemy bravely, but the realm of the bandit Wupin Wufu was too strong, and the county lieutenant was kicked off the horse by the thief and fled wildly!" ”
Yun Conglong was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing: "Wonderful, wonderful!" ”
Lu Shen smiled: "Brother, can you think clearly, you must have been kicked off the horse by that thief." ”
Yun Conglong patted Lu Shen's shoulder gratefully: "Brother, listening to your words is more useful than reading a large carload of books, no wonder you are writing novels, your thinking is really strange." ”
Lu Shen rolled his eyes: "Brother, you don't scold people with dirty words." ”
Yun Conglong smiled and took out a book from his arms: "Before coming, our daughter has a word first, and she must have your autograph." ”
After sending Yun Conglong away, Lu Shen had just sat down, and He Wu walked over: "My lord, there is news from Dao Jianxiao." ”
He Wu took out a letter: "This is all the news they heard about the Sun family. ”
Lu Shen looked at it, his eyes playful: "I really didn't expect it, this Sun family's energy is very deep in Yunze County." ”
Lu Shen returned to Cui's house, and as soon as he walked into his courtyard, he saw Cui Yingluo coming over with a worried face.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Cui Yingluo cried sadly: "Lu Shen, I just received the news that the second master was killed on the way to the store. ”
"What?"
Lu Shen was stunned: "Where did the second master go to patrol the store?" How could it be killed? ”
"Three days ago, the second master and his party planned to go to the capital to inspect the Cui family's shop, and they stayed in an inn on the side of the road at night and were killed."
"How could such a thing happen, head of the house?"
"My father is now discussing with the third master and the fourth master"
Lu Shen pondered: "Go, take me over." ”
followed Cui Yingluo to the family conference hall, and as soon as the two arrived at the door, they heard a noise inside, Cui Yingluo's expression changed slightly, and she pulled Lu Shen and broke in directly.
Cui Million sat there with a solemn face, the third master Cui Hao, and the fourth master Cui Lin sat there even more angrily.
Lu Shen said: "Grandpa, what's wrong?" ”
Cui Hao said: "Lu Shen, you came just in time, you should listen to this matter." ”
Cui Hao told the matter again, and Lu Shen pondered for a moment: "Did the second master encounter a robbery or was he deliberately hurt?" ”
"I don't know."
Cui Lin frowned: "Second brother's body can't be found." The little innkeeper went to the empty building, and there was no clue at all. ”
"Can you report to the official?"
"I reported to the official, and the people from the government walked around and left directly, but I couldn't find any clues at all."
Cui Lin said, "I mean to send someone over, but the meaning of a million is not to be allowed to go, what to do if you are not allowed to go?" Could it be that the corpse of the second brother is just like that? ”
Cui Wanwan said: "This is obviously someone else targeting our Cui family, if we send someone at this time, will the same thing happen again." ”
"Besides, it's all empty, what can we find?"
Cui Lin glared at Cui Million: "Then this matter is settled?" People can't die in the ground, which makes others think of our Cui family! ”
Cui Hao said: "Okay, the fifth child has already brought someone over to the scene to check it out yesterday, and I will talk about it when the fifth child comes back." ”
Lu Shen's heart moved: "The fifth grandfather also went?" ”
Cui Hao nodded: "As soon as I receive the news, I will let your fifth master bring someone over." ”
Lu Shen frowned: "Where was the second master killed?" ”
"Fifty miles away in Qingyun Town."
Lu Shen stood up: "I'll go over and take a look now." ”
Looking at Lu Shen's anxious expression, Cui Yingluo was stunned: "Lu Shen, what are you?" ”
Lu Shen let out a long breath: "I don't know, I always feel unsteady in my heart, I hope I think too much." ”
Cui Million panicked: "I'll let people go with you now." ”
Lu Shen shook his head: "I'll go alone, don't leave the Cui Mansion during this time, I will let He Wu stay in the Mansion to protect you." ”
Cui Yingluo was stunned: "Lu Shen, what do you mean?" ”
Lu Shen's face was solemn: "I suspect that someone is deliberately targeting the Cui family, and the fifth master is probably already more auspicious." ”
