Volume 1 Lonely Clouds Chapter 46 The Old Moon
The hunchbacked man stared at the rising fire in front of him, with no expression on his face, and asked casually, "Do you have a grudge against that family?"
Li Yunfeng originally wanted to deal with a few words, and pretended to let the man relax his vigilance, so that he could find out some useful information from his mouth. Although he has not met yet, judging from the figure on his back alone, that person should be the hunchbacked man that Chen Wen told him in prison before.
As for why there is such a speculation, firstly, Chen Wen said that the little maid Cuiyu had been secretly followed by a hunchbacked man on the way to and from the palace alone, and secondly, it was also in the prison last night, the man actually took out the notepaper hidden in the handkerchief he handed to the little maid, such a secret matter even the two officials who were eavesdropping on the corner of the wall in the same deep prison at that time did not know, why was the notepaper in his hand?
If this man did not know the master and servant, but only accidentally picked up the notepaper, it would never have been possible to guess that the notepaper had anything to do with him based on a notice in the city alone.
Then there are only two results, either this person in front of him is the internal response of the yamen, and the reason why he has done so much trouble is that the little maid has been intercepted by the yamen after she got out of prison last night, and she obtained the note paper under secret interrogation.
This time, he was just throwing stones to ask for directions, deliberately using paper to coax himself out of prison, and look at his attitude.
It seems that in the government office before, after asking in front of the county lord, he still failed to eliminate his suspicion. Now it seems that even what Chen Wen said last night was designed in advance, deliberately confusing the public, and the hunchbacked man in front of him and the group of guys in the yamen are simply the same dog.
If that's the case, it would be terrible, maybe at this moment, there will be a group of officials staring at him in the dark.
As for the second outcome, it's much simpler.
The hunchbacked man in front of him knows the pair of masters and servants, and they are entrusted with loyalty!
But if that's the case, why do you want to make yourself weak?
When Li Yunfeng was laughing and talking to that person, his mind was already spinning rapidly, looking at the twists and turns of a big push, but in fact, it was just a moment.
Still hesitating, the two speculations wavered, so they had to see the trick and guess the move.
This is the sentence that Li Yunfeng seemed to grin at before, "The seniors are like watching the fire, as if they have performed a fixing technique on the juniors." ”
On the surface, it seems to be a horse's kung fu, but secretly he is asking why the man restrained himself, so as to make a final decision on the question in his heart.
It's a pity that the old guy was not fooled, and gave an answer that was not the answer, "I restrained you, what can you do with me?"
People are under the eaves and have to bow their heads.
Let's see.
As soon as Li Yunfeng's words fell, he heard the man's words, "Do you have a grudge against that family?"
You don't have to guess to know that the family must be talking about a family of three in Tonghe Dyeing Workshop in the west of the city.
This is a bit of a self-confessing taste, but the little girl Cuiyu knows the inside story, and it seems that the matter is already obvious.
Li Yunfeng pretended not to know, and said suspiciously: "What family?"
The man said, "Are you still going to play tricks with me? Notices of your murder have been posted all over the city, and everyone knows about it." ”
Li Yunfeng sneered in his heart, didn't answer, and asked, "Is the senior here to avenge them?"
The man said, "Why do you ask?"
Li Yunfeng replied: "The seniors worked tirelessly to rescue me from prison in the middle of the night, they can't be admiring my demeanor, right?
"Xingshi asks for guilt?" the man smiled lightly, his dry and hoarse voice full of disdain, "If that's the case, I'm afraid you're not sitting there now, but already lying there." ”
Li Yunfeng listened to the disdain in his tone, and with the extremely hoarse dry voice, his back was slightly cold. He smiled, and he actually felt a little like the rest of his life.
Without waiting for Li Yunfeng to speak in embarrassment, the man said again: "Don't you know each other? Although you and I have never met, if someone knows you, I can be regarded as knowing you." ”
Li Yunfeng's eyelids jumped, and he said cautiously: "Don't joke with me, seniors, I'm new here, and I don't know many people here, if you accidentally offend someone, please ask your seniors to tell me, and the next time you see you, you will definitely pay for it." ”
The man said, "Is there another time? You are not afraid that once you leave the temple gate, you will be arrested again, you must know that murder is a capital crime." ”
Li Yunfeng looked at the front door of the outhouse, a broken door was hidden, and the light through the crack in the door could be seen from a distance.
He was overjoyed.
"Senior, so we're still in the city?"
"Did I say that?"
Li Yunfeng was a little confused, and for a while, he was surrounded by seven meat and eight vegetables.
However, judging from the bleak state of the inner chamber, it should be a ruined temple, and if it is in the city, it seems that it should not be like this.
As soon as he thought of this, Li Yunfeng was a little discouraged, it seemed that those guys had really worked hard to expose themselves.
"What's the matter? Stop talking, are you scared?"
Li Yunfeng was irritable for no reason, a little annoyed, he could be said to have "thrown himself into the net" for the first time, why should he have a "frank and lenient" treatment, right?
But these guys are pretending to promise themselves, pretending to cooperate with their own plans, and deliberately letting that little girl appear in front of them.
Li Yunfeng only felt a resentment in his heart rushing to the top of his head, and there was some unpleasant taste, but his face was not good at how to attack, so he had to hold his breath and said coldly: "I want to say that the matter of the destruction of the family of three has nothing to do with me, I am innocent, do you believe it?"
The man didn't even think about it, and replied leisurely without thinking: "Believe, of course believe." ”
cough.cough.cough.cough..
Li Yunfeng's eyes widened, his face was stunned, he choked uncomfortably, and after coughing a few times in succession, he said with some puzzlement: "Isn't the senior being teasing me?"
The man's voice came from afar, "How can I have the kung fu to tease you, and I ask you, what will you do if someone occupies your ancestral house and speaks ill of you?"
Li Yunfeng's heart moved slightly, as if he remembered something, but he was not sure, he thought about it for a while, and replied: "This kind of thing is naturally handed over to the government to deal with, since it is the ancestral house, it must be set on the side of the government, otherwise there is a land deed, which outsider can live in." ”
As if Li Yunfeng's answer had finally been determined, the man sighed slightly, and muttered to himself with some interest, "Will it be handed over to the government?" and then stopped talking.
Li Yunfeng was a little at a loss, and he didn't know what he said wrong.
The two were silent for a long time, and in this way about half a cup of tea passed.
Just as Li Yunfeng looked at the bonfire and looked dazed, the man snorted coldly and said, "You say that you are innocent, but is this scene the reason why you handed yourself over to the government?"
Li Yunfeng asked rhetorically: "If it weren't for the intervention of the seniors, how would you know that now the world is not clear, and it will fall in broad daylight?"
"Oh, but I listened to your tone before, and it was clear that there was a grudge against the so-called yamen in your mouth, why does it seem to be fighting now?" The man said with a smile and some mockery: "In broad daylight, the notice of the murderer's arrest is already well known, do you still hope that those officials and old men will slap you in the face and help you draw up another notice of exoneration?"
Li Yunfeng was speechless, a little angry for a while, and some insiders were not good to say to a person who was still unknown.
But after chewing carefully, what the man said in the second half of the sentence is not unreasonable, judging from the current scene, it is really hard to say, a headache!
Li Yunfeng looked at the man's back and said with some annoyance: "You heard it wrong, it's just a matter of facts!"
And the man said, "Yes? Maybe I misheard, but what about this?"
As he spoke, the man raised one hand above his head, and staggered, holding a bright red handkerchief between his fingers.
Li Yunfeng's heart tightened, and he said sharply: "Who is the senior, and what did you do to her?"
The man listened to his stern tone, but instead of being angry, he was a little surprised and happy. He put the handkerchief aside casually, and said with an unprecedented smile: "How about I take a girl's house, she's fine." ”
The laughter is still hoarse, a little crazy, if you listen carefully, the feelings are sincere and unpredictable.
Li Yunfeng was a little anxious, and reached out to touch it in his arms, but in a hurry, he forgot that he was full of strength at this moment, where could he lift his hand.
Under the strength of luck, his body moved, and he almost fell sideways.
Li Yunfeng took a few breaths, his chest and abdomen moved, and he could slightly feel that there seemed to be a sharp object through his clothes, still lying there quietly.
Fortunately, the thing is still there.
Li Yunfeng calmed down and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
The man didn't turn his head, but he could guess the movement here, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, kid, time is pressing, I'm just taking advantage of her falling asleep and changing things through the window." ”
Li Yunfeng frowned slightly, a little puzzled, "One thing for another?"
The man sighed with emotion: "Yes, one thing for another, didn't you just say that I heard it wrong? Do you want to listen to it now? I promise that I will not be wrong about what is written on that piece of paper." ”
Li Yunfeng's heart was cold, and sure enough, he took the opportunity to take the paper back.
He wondered a little, since the things he had already obtained had already been used to test himself, and the purpose had been achieved, why did he take it back?
The man seemed to see through his thoughts, and said jokingly to himself: "Don't you really want to listen, I remember the few words written on that piece of paper very clearly, the words are sincere and touching, if I am a daughter's family, I am afraid I will not be able to stand it." ”
Li Yunfeng was ashamed and angry, "Why did my predecessor bring me here?"
The man stretched out a hand, touched it in his arms, took out something and put it on his cheek, and said with a smile: "Of course it's waiting for someone."
Li Yunfeng asked, "Who are the seniors waiting for?"
The man said, "It's not me, it's you, it's you." ”
Li Yunfeng had an angry face, he was really annoyed by his divine tone, and scolded angrily: "Who are you?"
The man turned sideways and said with a smile: "I'm the old man." ”
