Chapter Seventy-Five: Count on Your Heart
Xie Youlong said: "Little goldfish, after changing the money, we will leave." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
Du Shenfei sat on the chair, lowered his head, and didn't speak, and after a long time, he said, "Sir, ashamed!"
Xie Youlong asked in surprise, "Little goldfish, what are you ashamed of?"
Du Shenfei said: "I was deceived again yesterday. ”
Xie Youlong was surprised: "What do you say?"
Du Shenfei said: "Sir, last night, the silver we brought back was all fake and was dropped. As soon as he finished speaking, he poured all the bags of silver on the ground, and split them one by one to see that they were all fake silver.
Xie Youlong was dumbfounded, and said, "Could it be that the person from the Futai Yamen is also a liar?"
Du Shenfei said: "These people must be a gang of liars, just pretending to be people from the government, so that we can be more at ease, and pretend to be very righteous to teach that person." ”
Xie Youlong sighed and said: "Hey, am I destined to be like this in this life, poor and destitute, not to be an official." It's really difficult. ”
Du Shenfei listened, and hurriedly comforted: "Sir, don't be discouraged, people have good fortune and misfortune, the moon is cloudy and sunny, and you have to go to Lin'an Spring Test." ”
Xie Youlong said: "There is no travel money again, so what should I do now? ”
Du Shenfei thought for a while and said, "Sir, there is nowhere to borrow, I still have to go to that gang of liars, and I have to return our silver." ”
Xie Youlong said: "I know your methods, but time is pressing, I'm afraid I can't wait." ”
Du Shenfei thought for a while and said, "The three of us, how many taels of silver do we each have?"
Xie Youlong said: "I still have five taels to break silver." The calf said, "I have two dollars." ”
Du Shenfei said: "I also have about three taels of broken silver." We will give all the money to the gentleman, and the calf will protect the gentleman and leave from this day. I keep money to spend here. Indeed, I will find our silver taels, and I will come after you both. ”
Xie Youlong pondered for a while and said, "Little goldfish, since this is the case, let the calf and you be here." I took the five taels of silver with me and set out on my way first. Leave the calves here, multiple helpers, and deal with those robbers, I can rest assured. ”
Du Shenfei said: "Mr. alone, okay?"
Xie Youlong said: "Don't worry, I don't have any money now, and no stupid thief will target me." ”
Du Shenfei said: "Okay, that gentleman will take the land route from here, only choose the main road, stay at night and go early, don't be greedy, in order to be safe." ”
Xie Youlong said: "I know, then you guys go quickly!"
At that time, Xie Youlong put his luggage on the horse, but because the newly bought horse forgot to ask the thief yesterday, he originally planned to buy another one. Now that he has no money, he has to give the calf to Xie Youlong to ride, Du Shenfei rode his own horse, the calf walked first, and then came to the house again.
The house is still the same house, and the garden is still the same garden. There are a few towering ancient trees in the garden, and a few poles of bamboo are planted next to the hedge, which is elegant and quiet.
When Du Shenfei saw it, a nameless wildfire rolled into his head, pulled out his knife, held it in his hand, and strode into the garden. But I saw a white-haired old woman, with her head down, picking up the sundries in the round rice in a bamboo basket.
The calf, no matter who it was, ran over and split the table into seven or eight pieces with an axe, so frightened that the old woman also scattered her slings on the ground, and sat on the ground with her buttocks, not wanting to get up.
Du Shenfei pulled the calf and said, "Calf, this is an old man in his seventies and eighties, don't scare her." ”
Then he picked up the woman and said, "Old man, let me ask you, whose house is this?"
The old woman settled down and said, "This house was built by my son, just because he went far away, leaving an old woman at home to watch the house." ”
Du Shenfei said: "Who are the two people who lived here yesterday?"
The old woman trembled and said, "I don't know them either, they said to rent my house for two days for a tael of silver." When I saw so much money, I rented it to them. ”
Du Shenfei said: "Where are their people now?"
The old woman said, "I have moved away last night, what are you looking for them?"
When Du Shenfei heard this, his hands were cold, and he said, "It's okay, you are busy! Your table and stalks, I will accompany you for 200 yuan, which must be enough." ”
Du Shen had nothing to do, he led the calf to walk back to the place where he got off the boat at Wuzikou, and sat on the stone where Xie Youlong and the calf sat first yesterday, he wanted to wait until the thief appeared again.
He suddenly remembered that now he and Niu Lixian felt exactly the same as when they used to sit together at the door of Zeng Yiduo's house, and it was even more uncomfortable.
Because these three hundred taels of silver are related to the fate and future of a well-educated talent.
But until the evening, the hateful thief was not seen, and not even the load of turnips was gone.
Du Shenfei had deeply remembered the faces of those two people, and he felt that if he could still see those two people, he would definitely cut these two people into two like peeling turnips.
The two had to go back to the "Juyousha", stay for one night, and then find a way to make money. Du Shenfei thought that if he went to find these two thieves like this, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, and he might have gone crazy, and he couldn't find these two thieves. It's not easy to ask people about such a shadowless thing, and you can't always ask anyone if you can see someone if you've ever seen a person with two eyebrows and a pair of eyes who is still a little fat?
Thinking of this, Du Shenfei suddenly had an idea, he asked the calf to pick up a blackened charcoal from the kitchen of the inn first, and scraped some pot ash at the bottom of the pot, concentrated, tried to recall, and lay on the table to draw the two thieves on the paper, which was really vivid. He took the two portraits and asked the shopkeeper of the "Juyoushe": "Shopkeeper, may I ask you, do you know these two people?"
When the shopkeeper saw this, he was taken aback and said, "How is this the same as a real person?"
Du Shenfei asked, saw some signs, and said, "You must know them?"
The shopkeeper said: "Guest officer, these two people are the famous leaders here, and they have gathered fifty or sixty people under their command to run amok in this area. ”
Du Shenfei said, "May I ask what are their names?"
The shopkeeper said: "The fat one is called Yucao Xian, and the thin one is called Wu Zile." But don't say that I told you, otherwise the shop will be unlucky. It's just that I've suffered a lot from these two people, and it's a good thing if someone can get rid of these evils. ”
Du Shenfei said: "I know, I will never mention you." Now just tell me where they live?"
The shopkeeper said, "I don't know about this." ”
Du Shenfei said: "Is there no way to find them?"
The shopkeeper said: "Guest officer, it's not difficult to find them, just go to the river again." The people who do such bad things here are all their gangs. As the saying goes, the thief wants the thief to take it, and the gambling money needs to be taken by the gambler. The guest officer only needs to catch one, and just ask him about the whereabouts of these two people. ”
Du Shenfei was overjoyed and said: "Thank you for telling the shopkeeper." The old saying is true, the bandits attack the bandits, and the water robbers capture the water bandits. The same is true of the so-called "attacking barbarians with barbarians", and there is a proverb that says "thieves take thieves, needles pick and prick", which also means this. Tomorrow will be caught, and I will slash these people one by one, and remove this evil for your land. ”
