Chapter 362: Rescuing Pan Jinlian
"Two days ago, Mrs. Zun and Xiao Yahuan did come, and they also asked Brother Tang Niu to pawn a purple jade hairpin in exchange for 1,300 taels of silver, and Brother Tang Niu gave 200 taels himself..... Oops......"
The young man hurriedly covered his mouth, he had just woken up Wu Song, his eyes were sleepy, and he had forgotten Pan Jinlian's instructions before he remembered it.
Wu Song was disappointed in his heart when he heard this, and he couldn't blame him, he didn't ask if Pan Jinlian had been here today, he said that he had come here two days, and it was not wrong.
"Dutou, don't blame Madame, the purple jade hairpin is estimated to be able to get it back, Brother Tang Niu is the henchman of the owner, but he didn't dare to be good at asserting 1,300 taels of silver, so he took the purple jade hairpin over, I think the owner has always been righteous, and it is no problem. ”
The young man saw that Wu Song came to Pan Jinlian in such a hurry, thinking that he knew that Pan Jinlian had pawned the purple jade hairpin, so that he came to Xingshi in the middle of the night to ask for the guilt, and he wanted to say something good to Pan Jinlian.
Wu Song naturally understood what he meant, but how could he have the heart to explain at this moment, Pan Jinlian did not go back to Happy Forest, nor did he go to Ye's house or come to the pawnshop, thinking of Fang Cai'er's eyes, he shuddered a little.
"Calm down! Wu Song, to save Jin Lian, you must be calm. Wu Song kept reminding himself, and comforted himself: "Skylark and Qing'er both know that I am powerful, and they shouldn't dare to harm Jin Lian, but it's just that Skylark is lustful for a while." ”
Thinking of this, he calmed down a little and asked, "Brother, let me ask you about a place, do you know where the mushroom mountain is?"
"There is no mushroom mountain in Mengzhou Mansion!" the young man affirmed.
"You are from Tianshen Village, how can you be so sure that there is no Mushroom Mountain in Mengzhou Mansion?"
"Dutou, that's the case, the pawnshop's account office is an old gentleman, who has lived in Mengzhou Mansion for fifty or sixty years, and he usually has nothing to do and likes to tell us the story of Mengzhou, so anywhere in Mengzhou, the villain knows. ”
This Wu Song agrees, all the old people, the favorite is to think about the year, and also love to say some things they know with interest, one is to miss the year, the other is to brag in front of the next generation, anyway, no one knows how brave he was back then, no matter how you say it, but these people, when it comes to the previous place names, they will never make a mistake, otherwise the cowhide will be punctured at once.
If it were a weekday, Wu Song asked others questions, and if others said no, he wouldn't ask any more, but tonight was about Pan Jinlian's life and death, so he had to ask patiently, and he explained the path that Qing'er told him in detail.
"Dutou, there is that place, but it's not called Mushroom Mountain, it's called Wild Boar Forest!"
Wu Song was stunned: "Wild Boar Forest! Isn't that the place where the merchant sued Li Kui for blocking the road and robbing him? Li Kui is innocent, there are still thieves there, Qing'er took Jin Lian there, could it be that she wanted Jin Lian's life?"
Wu Song didn't want to guess the pretty little girl ring with such a vicious heart, and continued to ask: "Does the wild boar forest have other names?"
"No, just a name, it was originally the only way for merchants to come and go, and half a month ago, there was a 'black whirlwind' Li Kui who committed a crime, and no one dared to pass it...."
"Li Kui didn't commit a crime!" shouted the old lady behind Wu Song.
When the young man heard Wu Song's name, he was grateful, and immediately rushed out to bow down, but he didn't notice that Wu Song was carrying a blind old woman behind him.
He respected Wu Song very much, which was strange, and he continued to answer Wu Song's question: "At this moment, even if the 'Black Whirlwind' Li Kui is arrested..."
Wu Song felt a tingling pain in his shoulder, it was the old lady's nails that sank into the flesh of his shoulder, he knew that the old lady was protecting Li Kui in his heart, and he didn't think it was angry, but it was a burst of warmth, thinking of his mother before he crossed over, and he didn't know what happened to her at the moment.
"But everyone didn't dare to go to the wild boar forest, because Du Tou said that it was not Li Kui who really committed the crime, everyone respected Du Tou, and they all said that what Du Tou said was credible, and the villain also estimated that the fake Li Kui was still in the wild boar forest, if someone went in, it would be more auspicious .....and less auspicious."
When the old lady heard that he had washed away his son, he was overjoyed, but Wu Song's heart sank: "Skylark and Qing'er are really vicious, and they want to kill Jin Lian!"
"I'm going to save Jin Lian right now, if Jin Lian is the slightest bit damaged, I will definitely kill that ** with my own hands!
Wu Song was anxious and wanted to go to the wild boar forest to look for Pan Jinlian, but there was a blind old lady on his back, so he hurriedly said: "Brother, this is Wu Song's godmother, can you spend the night on the Guibao?"
After he asked, he immediately smiled bitterly, knowing that he had asked a stupid question, and sure enough, the young man apologized: "Dutou, it's not that the villain is ungrateful, this pawnshop is small inside, there is only one room, there were originally three people sleeping, Mr. Bookkeeper, Brother Tang Niu and the villain, there are only two people at the moment, even if the villain sleeps on the street, it is okay to give a place to the old lady, even the bookkeeper is also a sixty or seventy-year-old person....."
"I understand, I'll go find the inn and bother!" Wu Song finished speaking, and immediately turned around and left.
"Don't worry, Dutou, the purple jade hairpin will definitely be returned!" the young man shouted from behind.
Wu Song's heart moved, and he turned around and said, "Brother, what is the name of your owner?"
"The villain's owner is the prison camp Anping Zhai Xiaoguan Camp, called Shi En, a good boxer, nicknamed 'Golden Eye Biao'!"
"It's miserable, it's really him!" Wu Song was stunned in his heart, and hurriedly asked: "He is about six or seven feet, twenty-four or five years old, with a white face, a beard on his lips, and a very handsome look?"
"That's right, that's the small pipe camp!"
"What does he have to do with Happy Forest?"
"The villain is just taking care of the pawnshop, and the owner doesn't know about it, only that he once broke his arm by a happy Lin Yihei man......"
"Wu Song, he is talking about Tie Niu, Tie Niu once said to the old man, he broke the arm of a white-faced man, he didn't expect it to be Xiaoguanying, he will interrogate Xiaoguanying tomorrow, it is really a narrow road, what should I do?"
The old lady hurriedly asked, Wu Song was ten times more anxious than her, he was going to look for Pan Jinlian tonight, who knows when he would find it, he originally wanted to pay the book trust to the young man, send it to Anping Village, the prison camp, to relieve Li Kui's difficulties, and he would go to see him another day, but Li Kui had such a grudge with him, and he had a dispute with him, as the saying goes, the bell needs to be tied to the bell, and he has to go, otherwise it will be difficult to save Li Kui's life with a letter alone.
"Don't worry, old lady, this matter is also tomorrow's matter....." Wu Song didn't dare to continue, if he said that he would go early tomorrow morning, if Pan Jinlian hadn't found it yet, what should he do, he was an honest person, and he couldn't make promises.
"Wu Song, don't wait until dawn, go at the beginning of the day, otherwise the old body will not be at ease....." The old lady said this, and his heart sank: "Oh, Jin Lian hasn't been found yet, Wu Song must be looking for it tonight, she went out with Qing'er, it is also very dangerous, how can I let him ignore Jin Lian's safety, but Tie Niu must die in the face of grace, only Wu Song will go in person....."
Lao Taijun and Wu Song were silent for a while, Wu Song was upset, but his footsteps did not stop, he knew that looking for Pan Jinlian was as fast as possible, he was racing against time.
When he looked up, there was an inn, and he strode in, "Man, this is not a restaurant, there are no leftovers, besides, it's so late, tomorrow you will go to the drunken fairy building in the east of the city, the owner is kind....."
Boom!
"Straight lady thief, is the old man like a beggar!"
Wu Song was upset, besides, he looked mighty, no matter where he went, even if he didn't recognize him, he always had a good face, and today he actually treated people as a beggar, it was the first time, and if he wasn't angry, it was fake, so he kicked the counter over.
The shopkeeper was so frightened that he shouted, "There are beggars beating people!"
The two guys immediately ran out, both holding long sticks in their hands, but seeing Wu Song's tall figure, especially the bulging muscles on his chest and the arms thicker than their thighs, he didn't dare to act indiscriminately, but shouted: "Beggar, you hurry up, Mengzhou Mansion is not a place where you can go wild." ”
Wu Song laughed angrily: "Straight lady thief, open your dog's eyes, where does the master look like a beggar?"
"You don't even have clothes, and you carry a blind beggar woman, why are you not a beggar. ”
"Phew! The master is here to cast the stack!" Wu Song suddenly realized, he had no clothes on him, Li Kui was a person who was poorer than the fifth richer, how could he have the money to buy decent clothes for the old lady, and in the middle of the night, he really looked like a pair of beggar mother and son, he smiled: "Does the master think that the weather is too hot, can't he not wear clothes?"
"Qingming has just passed, the cold has not subsided, are you hot?" The shopkeeper looked at Wu Song very suspiciously: "Man, even if you want to throw in the stack, I want to see where you can hide the silver on your body." ”
His sarcasm made Wu Song calm, his silver was in his clothes, he stripped off his clothes, and he really didn't have any silver, so he had to turn around and say, "Old Taijun, do you have any silver?"
"The old man's silver has been taken to Tie Niu to gamble!"
The old lady was also very helpless, she naturally understood Wu Song's heart, and said in a low voice: "Wu Song, you put the old body on the bluestone slab on the street, sit for a few hours and don't worry, you hurry up and find Jin Lian, find Jin Lian, and go to save Tie Niu, I hope that the emperor has eyes, and both of them can save the day." ”
Wu Song went back to the pawnshop and asked the young man to borrow a few taels of silver. ”
"Wu Song, you don't have to go. The old lady plucked a golden hairpin from his head and said: "This golden hairpin is the fifth day of the first month of the first month three years ago for the iron bull, and he won the silver and gave it to the old body, he said that it is gold, it is gold, the iron bull does not dare to deceive the old body, you take it to the shopkeeper." ”
"Hey, that's really the case, women have private money!" Wu Song smiled in his heart, and then burst into warmth: "By the way, it was a gift from Li Kui to the old lady, he was addicted to gambling, and it is estimated that he would have given a gift to the old lady once in his life, and the old lady would rather spend the night on the street than pawn, but she thought that if I went back and asked the man to borrow silver, it would damage the reputation of the hero, and secondly, it would also delay time, and the old lady was thinking about me!"
Wu Song is not a grinder, he immediately handed the golden hairpin to the shopkeeper, and the shopkeeper saw that although less than one-third was gold, the rest was gold passed off from brass, but it was okay to offset the rent for a few days, he opened the inn to make money, and if he had silver, he didn't care if he was a beggar or a gentleman, so he immediately changed his face and welcomed the old lady in.
Wu Song helped the old lady to sit on the bed and said: "Old lady, if you find the golden lotus, if you haven't found it yet, when the time comes, I will go directly to the prison camp Anping Village to save Brother Li, and then come back to find the golden lotus." ”
"Wu Song ....."
The old lady was so moved that she couldn't speak, she naturally knew that Pan Jinlian's position in Wu Song's heart was much more important than Li Kui's, and he could do this, which showed that he was very righteous to his mother and son.
In fact, Wu Song also has his own helplessness, if Pan Jinlian and Li Kui are in danger at the same time, he can only save one person, naturally to save Pan Jinlian, this is understandable, but the situation at this moment is that Pan Jinlian's whereabouts are unknown, as long as Li Kui arrives at the prison camp Anping Village, he is very sure to save him.
The best result is, of course, that he can find Pan Jinlian and save Li Kui, but how can the world be as good as he wants, he didn't think much about it, took a big stride, and ran towards the wild boar forest like a fly.
After running about three or two miles, he saw a fork in the road, he walked on the avenue according to the direction Qing'er said, and vaguely saw a little light in front of him, and when he got closer, it was a tea house, and an old woman was busy boiling tea in it.
"Old man, borrow the light to ask ....."
"You.... Who are you?"
The old woman looked up and saw a majestic man, his upper body was naked, it was still night at the moment, how could she not be frightened, she held the tongs tightly with both hands, and pointed at Wu Song.
"Don't panic, old man, the villain's wife strayed into the wild boar forest, and the villain was so anxious to find that he had no clothes. ”
The old woman looked at Wu Song carefully, seeing that he was nervous and sweating profusely, and he was indeed anxious to find someone, so she said, "When did your lady arrive in the wild boar forest?"
"This afternoon, between about Mo Shen and Youshi, it is estimated that I was with a little girl. ”
"Is your lady very handsome and elegant, and the little girl is sharp and sharp, and she talks like she is the master?"
"Exactly!" Wu Song was overjoyed, she described Pan Jinlian and Qing'er, Wu Song was running around in Mengzhou Mansion for a night, there was no news of Pan Jinlian, at this moment the old woman in front of her seemed to know the situation, how could she not be happy.
"Ahh
Wu Song was shocked: "Could it be that Jinlian has already had an accident!"
"Old man, please make it clear!" Wu Song bowed and said, looking very respectful and nervous.
"At the end of yesterday, two beautiful women came here, and the old body kindly reminded that there was a wild boar forest in front of them, and there were thieves blocking the road and robbing them. ”
The old man nodded again, fighting the tiger Wu Song said that the official government was not the real murderer, what kind of person Wu Song was, what he said was naturally true, the wild boar forest thieves had not been eliminated, and the girl ring was powerful, and the strategy of retreating was to let the little lady wait here, and she went alone, saying that it was for the sake of the lady's safety. ”
The lady is also good-hearted, so she actually believed it, and went into the wild boar forest with the little girl, and after about an hour, the little girl came out by herself, and she couldn't see the lady, and the old body thought that the lady was more auspicious. ”
"Hey, old man, you see it so clearly, why don't you say it to the villain's lady. Wu Song hurriedly said: "Your little girl is a villain!"
"That little girl ring is so powerful, the old body is also worried that she is in a gang with the thieves in the wild boar forest, how dare she find out ....."
The old woman shook her head and sighed, Wu Song knew that she was also helpless, so she had to say: "Thank you, old man, the villain will go in to find my wife." ”
"Man, the wild boar forest is lush and wooded, it is very difficult to walk, you remember a principle, if you want to pass, go straight to the east, if you want to come back, go west, it will be dawn, you look at the sun!"
Wu Song thanked the old woman and ran towards the wild boar forest, only to see that the wild boar forest was really very lush, and he couldn't help but be stunned: "If there is no one to guide this wild boar forest, even if I enter, it will be difficult to come out, let alone Jin Lian, a weak female stream." ”
Two flowers bloomed, one on each branch, and then Pan Jinlian, who hit the woman with a broom to her ankle at once, fell to the ground, and was covered in mud, but she took care of it a lot, and hurriedly got up.
But in a panic, Fang got up, stepped on his skirt, snapped, and fell to the ground again, his forehead slammed on a small stone, only to feel that his eyes were full of gold stars, and he almost fainted.
"Hahahaha, lady, even if you let you run, you can't run, you still obediently come back with the old lady, the old lady is not greedy, as long as your family comes over with five hundred taels of silver, they will let you go, the old lady saves your life, it's not too much to ask you for five hundred taels of silver, right?"
The woman laughed and thought: "Look at this woman, she looks delicate, and she runs away quickly, if she is not familiar with the mountain road, it will be difficult for the old lady to catch up, well, it is still safe to smash her out with a stone!"
The woman had a bad thought in her heart, and immediately grabbed a stone on the ground and said fiercely: "Lady, you can sleep for a while!"
Pan Jinlian turned around, only to see the woman holding a basin-sized stone in one hand, her face was gloomy, she panicked in her heart, her feet couldn't stop stepping, trying to struggle up, but a burst of dizziness hit her head, and she didn't have much strength.
She didn't want to die, so she grabbed the ground with both hands, and threw them at the woman whether she caught muddy water or leaves, but to no avail.
"Go-go-go-go!"
She suddenly caught a hard, warm thing in her hand, and she would be scared silly if she changed to an ordinary woman, fortunately, Pan Jinlian was born in Yahuan, and she had done all kinds of household work, and when she grabbed it, she knew that she had caught a chicken's leg, and she couldn't care about it, so she grabbed the chicken and threw it at the woman.
The woman screamed, and the old hen fluttered wildly in her face, causing chicken feathers to float all over the sky, and Pan Jinlian's hand tightened, and she grabbed another stone, which was the stone she had just hit.
No matter how kind she was, life and death were at stake at the moment, so she grabbed the stone, used all her strength, jumped up, and threw it at the woman's head.
