Chapter Seventy-Four: Fighting for the Tiger
When Rong Chengjin heard this, he thought for a long time and asked, "If you haven't asked your son's name, where is the fairy town?"
The man said: "The cheap name is not enough to worry about, I am a person from Sichuan and Shu, and I am the third oldest in the family, so I am called the third son of Tang." ”
Rong Chengjin arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Tang Gongzi, disrespectful and disrespectful! Although my father has made a lot of friends, but now he is in trouble, only Ling Zun and his son's family are willing to help each other, Gongzi is noble, filial piety is unforgettable in this life!"
Tang Sangongzi smiled slightly: "With a lot of effort, why worry about it! For today's plan, the only way to get out of the city as soon as possible and help Brother Rong to help Ling Zun enter the earth as soon as possible is the best policy, I don't know what Brother Rong plans to do?"
Tang Sangongzi, one line said, and the other party was worried that the old man kept crying and interfering, and he was very disgusted, so he said: "Old man, don't cry!
He didn't say that it was okay, but as soon as he said it, it touched the old man's sadness, and the old man cried even more sadly when he heard it.
Tang San Gongzi frowned and said, "This old man is crazy, why don't we solve it together and avoid future troubles!"
Rong Chengjin hurriedly said: "Don't do it! I have already caused him to be widowed, how can I harm people's lives for no reason!"
After Rong Chengjin finished speaking, he hurriedly whispered comfortingly: "Uncle, the matter has come to this, please mourn the old festival!"
The old man was afraid of Tang Sangongzi, huddled in the corner, holding the woman's body and sobbing quietly.
Tang Sangongzi looked at the many dung buckets placed in the utility room, although they had been washed and washed, there was still a faint smell coming from them, not only frowned, but looked at the two coffins placed in the northeast corner, and said with a smile: "The old man was prescient and prepared the coffin in advance. Young Master Rong, you quickly put Ling Zun's body in, and I will help you get out of the city after dawn. ”
Rong Chengjin said: "Now that the whole city is heavily guarded, how can I get out?"
Tang Sangongzi's paper fan shook lightly, looking confident, and said: "This son's free plan!"
Rong Chengjin opened the coffin, hugged Rong Zhiwu's body into it, and looked at Rong Zhiwu's gray and dead face, which had long lost his former look, and couldn't help but cry like rain.
Tang Sangongzi said: "Young Master Rong doesn't have to be sad, the top priority is to transport Ling Zun's body out of the city, put it into the ground, find the dragon pattern big jade knife as soon as possible, and avenge Ling Zun!"
Rong Chengjin gritted his teeth and said: "What Tang Gongzi said is that I, Rong Chengjin, will not take revenge and swear not to be a man!"
Hearing this, Tang San Gongzi smiled and nodded, took out a short dart from his sleeve, and walked towards the coffin. Rong Chengjin didn't know what to do, so he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him and asked, "What do you want to do?"
Tang Sangongzi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You're too worried, I'll make a partition." Two corpses in one coffin, and your father's body will be carried out of the city. After Tang Sangongzi finished speaking, he stepped forward and inserted four short darts into the wall panel of the coffin. Then the local materials were used to dismantle the bed board of the old man's house. According to the shape of the coffin, he drew a wooden plank, put it in the coffin, and then pulled a futon and spread it on it, glanced at the old man, and ordered: "Go, bring the body of your old woman and put it on it." ”
The old man glanced at Tang Sangongzi, and stopped talking.
Rong Chengjin stepped forward and bowed to the old man, and persuaded: "Uncle, now that the government has known that we have appeared in your house, my mother-in-law has been affected by me and has suffered misfortune, if you continue to be here, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape King Ning's poisonous hands, so it is better to leave first." I have some silver taels here, how about giving it to you for retirement?" Rong Chengjin said, from his arms, a stack of silver tickets, handed it to the old man, and said: "This is five hundred taels of silver tickets, you can accept them first!"
Tang Sangongzi said with a smile: "Young Master Rong is really generous, these five hundred taels of silver, I am afraid that the old man will not be able to use it up." ”
After the old man had placed the woman in the coffin, the two lifted the lid of the coffin and closed it.
After working for most of the night, it was dawn.
"You have to do enough drama. Tang Sangongzi instructed: "Old man, you go to the street to buy some incense, candles, paper horses, white cloth and white flags, and then ask a group of people." Your wife earned you so much pension money at once, so you have to send her to the end. ”
Rong Chengjin listened to his mean words, and hurriedly persuaded him: "Uncle, you and your mother-in-law have lived together for a lifetime, you should do a good job for her old man's family, don't worry, I will pay this money, count my debt to her." ”
After the old man left, Tang Sangongzi looked at Rong Chengjin's face still covered with a black veil, and said, "Young Master Rong, show your dignity!"
Rong Chengjin heard this, thought for a moment, and reached out to tear off the black cloth, revealing his true face. When Tang San Gongzi saw it, he pouted and said, "It's really handsome, if you look like Pan An, it's just that!"
Rong Chengjin said: "Tang Sangongzi has won the award, and his appearance is just a stinky skin. No matter how beautiful he is, it is not as good as Tang Sangongzi's unique skills and dominate the world!"
"You can talk!" Tang San Gongzi said as he took out a human skin mask from his bosom, took out a small porcelain bottle, poured some transparent liquid into it, and smeared it on the human skin mask, and said: "Your portrait has already been pasted all over Hongdu City, and if you want to get out of the city, you need to change your appearance. It's just that there are some side effects, after a long time, the potion soaks into the skin, and it is easy to disfigure, I don't know if you are willing to do it?"
Rong Chengjin listened, turned his head to look at the coffin beside him, reached out and took the human skin mask in Tang Sangongzi's hand, and held it with both hands to cover his face. When the skin comes into contact with it, you immediately feel a burning pain.
Rong Chengjin couldn't help but "hum" softly, gritting his teeth and stiffening.
Not long after the old man went, he really led a group of people to buy a lot of incense, candles, paper horses, and other sacrificial supplies. At this time, Rong Chengjin had already removed his outfit and changed into a set of ordinary clothes at the old man's house.
When the old man saw Rong Chengjin's appearance, his face was indifferent, not much worse than a dead corpse, and he couldn't help but feel a little afraid in his heart. It's just that the eyes are gentle, and they don't seem to match the face.
Last night, the officers and soldiers searched and arrested from house to house, stirring up chickens and dogs in Hongdu City. The neighbors already vaguely knew that the old man's family had suffered a disaster, and although they sympathized with it, they were afraid of getting into trouble, so they stretched out their heads and looked over here from time to time.
Tang Sangongzi said: "There was a night of trouble last night, the city gate must be heavily guarded this morning, let's make a decision in the afternoon." So when the shadow of the sun gradually reached the southwest, he pulled the car and led everyone and the old man to walk slowly towards the city gate.
From morning to noon, the officers and men guarding the gate inspected thousands of people one by one, and they could not help but be a little tired and relaxed. Rong Chengjin saw many officers and soldiers guarding the city gate, checking the pedestrians and vehicles leaving the city one by one, and the situation was obviously very serious.
Tang Sangongzi walked ahead, turned around, and asked Rong Chengjin, "Young Master Rong, are you afraid?"
Rong Chengjin saw two rows of officers and soldiers standing not far away, and he couldn't turn around and leave if he wanted to regret it, gritted his teeth and said: "The matter has come to this, there is no choice, it's a big deal, let's go!"
At this time, I saw the officers and soldiers who were guarding the door holding a carriage, forcibly stopped, and shouted in their mouths: "Stop, check! Everyone in the carriage is down!" The people who rushed the car jumped down and said with a smile: "Lord, lord! Sitting inside are the old lady and the young lady of my family, because they asked for a sign in the Huiju Temple outside the city a few days ago, and they went to repay their vows today, so I beg you to make it convenient!"
When the officer heard this, he lifted the curtain and saw that there was an old lady and a young girl sitting inside, and he put down the curtain, but said unrelentingly: "What lady, this official looks like you are from the assassins last night, come down, go back to the yamen with Lao Tzu to ask for clarification before leaving! Lao Tzu is on duty here today, and none of you suspects can escape!"
The coachman was startled when he heard this, and hurriedly smiled and said, "Yo! Official, you are really good at laughing, we are all good people who abide by the law and abide by the law, you can make it convenient and raise your noble hand!"
The head of the sect got two taels of silver, so he naturally spoke three points, and said, "Seeing that you are so cowardly, you are certainly not with the thief." That's it, Lao Tzu still has business to do here, you guys go quickly, don't hinder Lao Tzu's office!"
"Yes, yes," the coachman nodded, and hurriedly hopped off the carriage.
"Stand, stop," the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate stopped in front of Tang Sangongzi and asked, "What are you doing?"
Rong Chengjin was very nervous when he saw this, afraid that he would reveal the news, so he lowered his head at the moment, sweat oozed from his palm, and quietly reached into the sleeve of his left hand with his right hand and quietly held the dagger.
Tang Sangongzi said lightly: "The old lady at home is gone, come out of the coffin for funeral!"
When the official heard this, he rolled his eyes at everyone and sneered: "What do I think you have always been assassins who have come to rob corpses, quickly open the coffin and show it to Lao Tzu!"
