Chapter 12: The Death of a Flower (5)

Chen Xingwu nodded: "Hmm." ”

Chen Xingwen: "Didn't the second brother say, try to go out as little as possible, so as not to get into trouble." Not only are people looking for us, but people from the government are also looking for us. This is Zhu Wen's territory, and he, like Li Keyong, will attack us. ”

Chen Xingwu said: "That's what I said, but I eat and live with others here, in the eyes of others, I am like a moth, and my heart is not a taste." I'm different from you, this is your home, you can be at ease, but I can't. ”

Chen Xingwen understood his situation, and when he saw that his brother could think like this, he was relieved: after a period of hardship, his temperament had changed. "Wait patiently for a few more days, after the second brother finishes taking care of the business here, we will go to Shuzhong. At that time, we will find something to do according to our ability. ”

Chen Xingwu's face was difficult: "You are married, and your heart is steady." I also want to have a home of my own. But I have nothing, and it's not good for me to propose to my second brother about marrying Xiaoqing. If you can make a few more guns for my second brother, I will propose my idea to him, and I will speak. The Chen family didn't eat his Tang family's food. ”

Chen Xingwen was in a dilemma by what he said, how could he not have such thoughts? Although his wife Tang Susu would not think so, what about his brother? What about the rest of the Tang family? How do you think and think? He can't even hold the face of his brother, who has always been idle, can he not move? He seems to regret a little and promised Tang Wuwei to come to Chang'an and go to Shuzhong.

Chen Xingwu said again: "When I called for dinner yesterday, Xiaoqing gave me a face, saying that I had to be called by others to eat, I was a waste person who came to stretch out his hand to eat and open his mouth, and said that he was not rich but pretended to be a son." ”

Chen Xingwen was angry: "Did she really say that?"

Chen Xingwu: "She doesn't dare in front of you, but in front of me, there are still a lot of ugly words." You know I'm lazy, but I can't stand it right now. ”

Chen Xingwen thought for a while: "I'll discuss with Su Su in the evening, or let's go to Shuzhong first, and don't wait for the second brother." ”

Chen Xingwu sighed: "What I eat in Shuzhong is not the same as the Tang family's food? You and I have nothing at the moment, and we have to use other people's money to buy a hoe and open up the wasteland." ”

Chen Xingwen's tone was affirmative: "Second brother is definitely not that kind of person! Besides, I will pay him back tenfold and hundredfold in the future." ”

Chen Xingwu pouted: "It's easy for you to say, except for the gun, what do you take to return, and he is not uncommon for anything else." ”

Chen Xingwen: "I have a utensil, which can help him a lot, and he must be happy." ”

Chen Xingwu came to his senses at this time: "Oh, you have other treasures, what are they?"

Chen Xingwen: "Reeds, reeds with good elasticity. With this kind of reed, the power of the Tangmen secret weapon can be increased several times. ”

Chen Xingwu seemed to be deflated, and glanced at his younger brother. "It's not as good as a gun, is it better than a gun? With a gun, other hidden weapons are like dung, who cares what kind of spring you have?"

Chen Xingwen was helpless: "Then I really have no choice but to leave the Tang family." ”

Chen Xingwu became angry: "You won't listen to what you say! You leave the Tang family, what should Su Su do? Su Su is so good to you, do you bear to leave her and run away alone, or take her out to suffer and be frightened with you?"

Chen Xingwen was asked and didn't know how to answer. "I ...... Alas!"

Steward Jin firmly believes that Yang Xihua did not die of a violent illness, but must have been manipulated. It happened that Zhou Xingyun, who was bloodless in the sword, arrived in Chang'an, so he went to the mass grave with him to check Yang Xihua's body.

The body was not buried, not for a long time, and remained intact. The two of them examined it carefully, but they didn't find any fatal injuries, and they couldn't even find the traces of being hit by a small hidden weapon. Both fingers are broken, but they were apparently bitten by a rat after death.

Butler Kim: "It does look like he died of a violent illness." But it's such a coincidence, what does Brother Zhou think?"

Jian Wuxue shook his head: "The corpse of the poisoned corpse is black and has a special smell. His complexion didn't change that way, and he couldn't smell anything, so it was unreasonable to say that he was poisoned. ”

Butler Kim: "Is there any poison we haven't seen before?"

The sword is bloodless: "Tang Men is a master of using poison." But as far as I know, their deadly poison can be reflected in the corpses, and I have never seen any poison they use. As he spoke, he looked at the corpse again. "Oh, by the way, his mutilated fingers look like they've been bitten by rats since then. If he dies of poisoning, maybe the rat that gnawed his finger will also die of poisoning. ”

Steward Jin: "Brother Zhou." ”

After speaking, the two looked around and searched carefully.

After a while, Jian Wuxue really found a dead mouse. "Found it, it looks like it's just dead, and it's unscathed. ”

Butler Kim: "I found one too." ”

Jian Wuxue's face was solemn: "In this way, the little flower hand was undoubtedly poisoned, and this poison was so clever: he suddenly fell to the ground without symptoms." Who is more clever than Tang Sect in poisoning? This is a formidable opponent!"

Steward Jin pondered for a moment. "Could it be that woman? No, a young woman in the dust, where did she come from such a method?"

Jian Wuxue: "Did you say the maid in the tea house?"

Steward Jin nodded: "Yang Xihua has many enemies, she is cautious, she will not eat other people's things, only that woman has a chance to start." Yes, it had to be her. It's good that I'm gone, otherwise I'd be lying here now. ”

Sword Bloodless: "That's because she doesn't want to harm you, if you do, how can you escape?"

Steward Jin's eyes slipped a few times: "So, Yang Xihua's death has nothing to do with me, and I haven't exposed the relationship between the three watchmen." The poisoner is only the enemy of the trick. ”

Jian Wuxue stood up: "It's useless to think too much, wouldn't it be clear if you find that woman?"

Steward Jin: "Well, Brother Zhou is acting briskly, go find her." ”

Soon the two came to Xinglong Tea House and looked for the shopkeeper first. The shopkeeper recalled for a while, and brought the waitress who had been waiting in the box yesterday.

Steward Jin denied: "It's not her!"

The shopkeeper affirmed: "She was the one who waited in the wing room yesterday. ”

Jian Wuxue's face sank, and he said sharply to the maid: "What's the matter, you say!"

The waitress trembled with fear. "During this time, a woman offered to replace me. She said that she came from Piaoxiang Pavilion and was an acquaintance of the two masters, and the shopkeeper specially invited her to serve the two masters. She gave me a piece of silver, and I gave her the work I had. ”

Shopkeeper: "I have not seen the woman, she must be the one who is plotting." ”

Steward Jin and Jian Wuxue couldn't ask anything when they saw it, so they had to give up.

Chen Xingwen sat alone in the garden pavilion, looking at the fish in the pond. He had been locked up in Tang's house for a while, and he began to feel bored. He's an idle guy, he likes to do things and do what he wants. In this idle period, he pondered how to reduce the sound of the gun so that it could be fired silently, and become a real hidden weapon. But he couldn't do the experiment. The idea was not verified, and he was a little restless.

Brother Chen Xingwu's words made him more or less feel melancholy under the fence, it is not a way to go on like this for a long time, and the debts owed to others must be repaid after all. What will you pay back?
