Chapter 130: Encounter with Zhao Lao
On this day, Cang Mang and Xiao Huang were sitting on the side of the street, tasting the most popular Li Ji buns in Fuyu City.
A luxurious carriage passed by, and the pedestrians around hurriedly avoided it, as if they were afraid of colliding with the people on it. Hearing someone talking that this was the carriage of the City Lord's Mansion, Cang Yu looked over curiously.
This look happened to meet the eyes of the people in the car.
"Isn't this Zhao Lao? It seems that their life in Fuyu City is not bad, even the people who drive the carriage for him are city guards, and there is a city lord's son-in-law, which is really a thing to be proud of. ”
Although Cang Mang glanced at Zhao Lao, he didn't plan to greet Zhao Lao, and still drove by the carriage not far away.
He had been wearing a mask before, but he didn't want to be recognized, so why bother?
Touched his stomach: "Boss, let's have another basket of steamed buns." ”
"Okay, guest officer, wait a minute. ”
He and Xiao Huang have very good appetites, and the taste of this steamed bun stall is also very good, and every table is almost full.
Cang Mang was eating buns with his head down, but Xiao Huang yelled at Cang Mang.
When I looked up, it turned out to be Old Man Zhao who also came here to eat steamed buns.
Zhao Lao looked around, as if he was looking for a seat, and by coincidence, he sat opposite the vast expanse.
"Bring me a basket of steamed buns. ”
"Guest, come right away. ”
Cang Mang lowered his head and pretended not to know, and continued to eat his buns, but he heard Zhao Lao whisper: "Peerless senior." ”
The movement in Cangman's hand paused, and then he continued to eat steamed buns: "Senior, the old man has something to ask for." ”
Cang Mang raised his head again, but found that Zhao Lao's eyes were looking around, but he still whispered in his mouth: "Senior, please pretend that you don't know me." ”
Seeing Zhao Lao's appearance, Cang Da wanted to laugh, but he also learned from Zhao Lao's appearance and pretended to continue to eat steamed buns: "How did you recognize me?"
"Senior, is it really you? I really didn't expect my predecessor to be so young. I recognized you through the dog of my seniors. ”
smacked his lips, and sure enough, it was easy to expose his identity with Xiao Huang all day long.
"Guest, your buns. Cang Mang and Zhao Lao's buns were brought over by Xiao Er at the same time.
After Xiao Er left, Cang Mang asked, "What's the matter with such a mysterious looking for me?"
"I have something that I hope my senior can keep for me for a few days. ”
Cang Mang hesitated for a moment: "It's okay to keep it for you, but I'm going to leave Fuyu City in two days, when will you come to get your things back?"
"Seniors do their own thing, if seniors leave Fuyu City, I can also go back to Green Water City to find you, I don't know if you will be in that house. ”
"Yes. ”
Just then, he felt something fall from under the table on his lap.
Cang stretched out his hand and touched it, it should be a soft cloth bag, and he quickly put the thing away without a trace.
He asked, "Is there any trouble you have?"
"It's just a bit of speculation, and I can't say the specifics. ”
Cang Mang hesitated slightly: "The people who attacked you on the road also came to Fuyu City, and the address is ......."
There is not much time left to rush back to Green Water City, so I want to use the power of the City Lord's Mansion to investigate that courtyard.
"Senior, I remember, I'll find a chance to check, senior, the old man left first. ”
I saw the old man Zhao shouting at Xiao Er: "Xiao Er checks out, and then two more baskets of steamed buns are packed." Then he got up and walked out.
Cang Mang did not look back at Zhao Lao, but continued to eat steamed buns, while Xiao Huang looked around until Zhao Lao got into the carriage and drove away.
There was still no progress in the surveillance of Cang and Xiao Huang, and after dark, there were fewer people on the street, so for the sake of stability, Cang Mang went to this Xiao Huang and returned to the inn.
It wasn't until now that he had time to take out the soft bag that Zhao Lao handed over to him.
Cang Mang had some guesses about the thing in his hand, but after hesitating for a moment, he decided not to open it to see it.
Although I have curiosity, I always feel that if I open it and look at it, it is a very immoral behavior, and I simply put things into the black card cave, and I can't see it.
Sit down cross-legged and start practicing.
In the middle of the night, there was a sudden noise in the street, as if someone was being shouted to catch the assassin.
Cang Mo stopped his cultivation and came to the window, but he saw rows of torches lit on the street, and neatly dressed soldiers shuttling through the streets, shouting that they were indeed catching assassins.
Cang raised his eyebrows, what kind of assassin? There are really people who dare to commit murder in Fuyu City, this is provoking the city guards?
"The city lord's mansion was attacked by assassins, and the whole city was under martial law, and the murderer was arrested. ”
Hearing that it was the City Lord's Mansion, his brows couldn't help frowning.
I secretly thought to myself, could it be that the poisonous bees and their group of guys attacked the City Lord's Mansion? Are they really so crazy? Are they so powerful, or are they looking for death?
He only told Zhao Lao about the hiding place of the poisonous bees and the gang during the day, and the City Lord's Mansion was attacked at night.
Could it be that Zhao Lao and the others took some action that caused the two sides to get angry?
Thoughts flashed, but always speculation.
"Xiao Huang, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion to have a look. ”
On the streets, there were not a few people who had the same purpose as them, and many people dared to go to the City Lord's Mansion to see the excitement.
Along the way, I heard people talking.
"Did you hear that? It seems that the father-in-law of the castle lord was assassinated. ”
"Who did you listen to?"
"I have a relative in my family who is the city guard, and he came to report the letter to me just now, so I came out to take a look. ”
"How's the man? dead?"
"It's dead, and I heard that not only the city lord's father-in-law, but even the city lord's brother-in-law and several others have died, and the child hasn't let go. ”
"Who is so daring? This is going to stab the tiger's ass!"
"Who's to say it isn't?"
Hearing this, the corners of the vast eyes jumped, isn't the city lord's father-in-law the old man Zhao?
This kind of gossip was not quite believable, so he quickened his pace a little and soon came to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion.
At this time, the city lord's mansion was already surrounded by a lot of people, and several people were covered with white cloths, stacked in a row, and placed at the gate of the city lord's mansion.
Xiao Huang raised his head and shouted at Cangman.
Cang Mang chuckled in his heart: "Old Man Zhao's family is really dead?"
After counting, there are not only four corpses in front of me, is it really as passers-by say, including children?
The scene in front of him reminded Cang Mang of what happened in Mujiazhuang, and Cang Mang secretly clenched his fists.
Several carriages brought in a few good coffins, and some of the city guards had to carry the bodies into the coffins.
At this moment, a woman rushed out of the City Lord's Mansion, ignoring everyone's obstruction, and threw herself directly on several coffins in front of her. "Dad, mother...... Yes...... Yes...... Yes...... Who did it?" read the latest chapter of the "Peerless Soul Seal Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
