Chapter 120: Cold Bones

After Xiaodao, he fell asleep again, and in the next two days, he first recovered in Yaju, and then because Yanmingzhuang suffered this catastrophe, it was difficult for the lucky surviving family to continue to maintain the operation of the village, because after everyone's discussion, the owner of Bai Zhuang and Chai Daguan and Xiaodao and others decided to go to Yunyang Town to live temporarily. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The identities of Xiaodao and Tang Tian were also exposed because of the encounter and conversation between Zheng Zhutou and Chai Daguanren, but fortunately, everyone thanked Xiaodao for his thorough protection all the way, and there were no other complaints.

The owner of Bai Zhuang has another courtyard in this Yunyang Town, and he will come here to live for a few days during the Mid-Autumn Festival and Lantern Festival every year, and he will gain popularity. The rest of the time, you have to live in Yanming Village, or it is inconvenient to travel around, or go back to the old house in Luoyang to visit your brother.

Xiaodao, Tang Tian, Dao Wantong and Chai Daguan were about to leave in a hurry, and they wanted to find an inn to rest conveniently, but they still couldn't resist the warm invitation of the owner of Bai Zhuang, so they had to agree to go to another courtyard to live temporarily.

Xiao Dao had been recuperating in the house for the past two days, and seeing that his injuries had improved, he took Tang Tian out of the courtyard and went around the town.

Although this Yunyang town is called a small town, it is also quite lively with people coming and going, and hawkers can be seen everywhere on the road, and the sound of children playing is heard from time to time.

Xiaodao and Tang Tian walked all the way along the street, and unconsciously came to the end, there was a big mansion in front of them, the door was wide and the wall was high, and at first glance it was the place where the richest people in Yunyang Town lived, but there was a white cloth hanging outside the gate, and white paper was all over the ground. Xiaodao and Tang Tian took a few steps closer, and the sound of mourning and music inside became clearer.

"Oh, this family is dead, and it's a funeral, so let's not go. Tang Tian grabbed the knife and said.

"You know this family. Knife said as he walked.

"I know? Could it be that this is the He family?" Tang Tian came to the door with the knife, looked at the plaque above the gate, and sure enough, the word "He Mansion" was written on the dragon flying and phoenix dance, and then looked at the knife, and said, "You didn't come here on purpose today, right?" ”

When the knife came to the door, a man dressed in sackcloth came up and asked, "Who are you?"

"We are friends of the He brothers before their deaths, and we know that they have met with misfortune, so we have come to offer our condolences. Knife said.

"Oh oh, inside please. As he spoke, the man led the knife and Tang Tian into the door.

The knife walked into the courtyard, looked around, it was already full of white cloth, white lanterns, and the hall in front of it was the mourning hall, where three coffins were parked, and more than a dozen monks sat in it and kept chanting. Next to the coffin, a beautiful ** man in his twenties was dressed in white, constantly wiping the corners of his eyes with a white silk in his hand, but the person standing next to the woman was Zheng Zhutou.

Zheng Zhutou saw someone coming to the mourning hall out of the corner of his eye, looked up, and found that it was Xiaodao and Tang Tian, he was slightly stunned in his heart, and then slowly stepped forward and said, "It turned out to be the Lord of You Hall and the Lord of Tang Xiang, I didn't expect the two of you to come." ”

"Are the He brothers buried today?" asked Xiaodao.

"Not bad, not bad. The female relatives of the family still hope to settle down as soon as possible, and I also think of brotherhood, so I try my best to help. Zheng Zhutou said.

"Then it's just that you don't inform us and the Chai officials, why don't you even inform the owner of the Bai Zhuang? The brothers of the He family are not only your brothers, but also the friends of the owner of the Bai Zhuang. Knife asked sharply.

"Oops, there have been a lot of things in the past two days, negligence, negligence. Steward Li didn't dare to inform the owner of Bai Zhuang yet. Zheng Zhutou shouted at Steward Li on the side.

"Are the two friends of the husband?" the beautiful ** man saw Zheng Zhutou talking to the knife, so he came over and asked.

"Who is this?" asked Knife.

"Oh, this is the wife of the He family's distant mountains, He Yuanxi and He Yuanzhi have never married, and their parents died early, and now the affairs of this family fall on Mrs. He alone, which is very hard. Zheng Zhutou said.

"Who said she was the only one, and me?" said another child walking by, and the knife saw that he was no more than ten years old.

"In Xia He Yuanning, is it the fourth elder of the He family, are the two friends of my elder brothers?" He Yuanning's voice was immature, but he was not unfamiliar with people and was very decent.

The knife also arched his hand and said, "Treasured." ”

After Xiaodao and Tang Tian took the incense handed over by the servant from the side, they took a few steps forward, walked to the spiritual seat, bowed three times in a row, and left after the incense.

Outside the door, the knife did not stop, and went straight back along the road, Tang Tian felt strange, and asked on the side: "What's the matter?

"We don't actually have a deep friendship with him, since we met by chance, just do your best, what else do you want?" said Xiao Dao expressionlessly.

"Oh, it's not like you, but that's what you say. Tang Tian shrugged his shoulders and didn't ask any more.

After returning to the courtyard, the knife went into the room alone, and did not come out to eat until dinner, and returned to the room after dinner.

At the beginning of the shift, a black shadow flashed out of the small knife room, trotted along the courtyard in two steps, and suddenly jumped up to the roof, and after a few steps, the black shadow had disappeared into the night.

On one of the rooftops of the courtyard, another person straightened up, and the faint light reflected Tang Tian's face, and Tang Tian muttered, "Look what tricks you play." So Tang Tian also performed light skills, took a few steps, and followed closely behind the black shadow.

It didn't take long for Tang Tian to understand where the black shadow was going, and he thought to himself: "Little knife, little knife, I know that you can't let go in your heart, but what are you going to do when you go late at night?"

The two of them jumped into the He Mansion one after the other. The knife stopped near the mourning hall, and Tang Tian also leaned down to look inside. More than a dozen monks were still chanting, and He Yuanning, the youngest of the He family, was kneeling in front of the mourning hall, and Mrs. He beside him stood up at this time, said a few words to him, and walked out of the mourning hall towards the backyard.

Tang Tian read in his heart: "This fourth elder of the He family and his brothers have a deep brotherly relationship, but this Mrs. He is a little weird. ”

At this moment, the knife also moved again, and followed Mrs. Naga slowly to the backyard on the roof.

Soon after Mrs. Naga entered the room, the maids who followed her also walked out of the room, and in a short time, the lights in the room were extinguished. But at this moment, the door opened again, and Mrs. Naga looked left and right, and then tiptoed out of the room, and walked towards another hut in the northwest corner, and the knife set off again to follow.

Seeing this, Tang Tian already understood in his heart, and flicked the peanut rice in his hand towards the knife in the distance. The knife felt an object behind him approaching quickly, and when he took it back, he took it with two fingers, and it turned out to be a peanut. When he looked up again, he saw Tang Tian waving his hand towards him.

Tang Tian walked up to meet Xiaodao at this moment, and said, "It turns out that you are so strange during the day, and you are actually for this. ”

Xiaodao said: "You already knew?"

Tang Tiandao: "Yes, I saw that you were going to, so I came to send you paper." Our brothers for so many years, can't I still see your thoughts? What do you want to do? Kill them?" Tang Tian saw that Mrs. Nahe knocked on the door of the hut a few times, and it was Zheng Zhutou who walked out of the door.

"This Zheng Zhutou seduced other people's wives and harmed people's lives, and then I am afraid that he will take away the He family's property, shouldn't he die?" said Xiao Dao sharply.

"I thought you didn't see that the He family brother did die unjustly. Now that you have decided, I am with you. Tang Tian said.

The knife looked at Tang Tian gratefully, patted Tang Tian on the shoulder with his hand, and nodded vigorously.

The two were about to make a move, when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps under the house, and the two of them looked over and saw that the person who came was He Yuanning.

He Yuanning walked step by step to the hut, stood at the door, listened to the bursts of cheers inside, raised his hand and wanted to knock on the door, but stopped halfway and put his hand down.

At this moment, the sound in the house stopped, the door of the house suddenly opened, and Zheng Zhutou stood face to face with He Yuanning naked. Knife looked nervously at the place and exclaimed, "Not good." ”

"Fourth son, it's so late, why are you here?" said Zheng Zhutou.

"Zheng Zhutou, it's so late, why are you still in my He family?" He Yuanning said without showing weakness.

"Your He family has suffered such an accident, how can I not take care of it, what about staying here for one night?" Zheng Zhutou sneered.

"Including taking care of his wife for my deceased brother?" He Yuanning asked coldly.

Zheng Zhu laughed wildly a few times, and suddenly grabbed He Yuanning's shirt, lifted it in the air with a forceful lift, and said sharply: "Little rabbit cub, if you are interested, go back to sleep honestly, so that you can live for a few more years, otherwise." ”

"Otherwise, will it be the same as my brothers?" He Yuanning said through gritted teeth.

Xiaodao didn't expect that although He Yuanning was young, he was so tough, but that Zheng Zhutou was a very vicious character, so he was afraid that it would be difficult to save his life, so he motioned to Tang Tian to do it immediately.

Tang Tian understood, his face sank, and three willow leaf darts instantly appeared in the palm of his hand, one hit the eaves of the door, in order to alarm Zheng Zhutou, one hit two steps to the side, sealing the way for him to retreat, and another hit the door to prevent him from escaping into the room. The three hidden weapons were staggered, and the timing of each strike perfectly matched the position of the knife.

When a willow leaf dart hit the eaves of the door and alarmed Zheng Zhu's head, he saw him raise his head suddenly, explore the changes around him, and saw that the knife was coming from top to bottom. Zheng Zhutou was shocked, hurriedly blocked He Yuanning in front of him, and took two steps back to his side, but as soon as he took a step, he noticed a hidden weapon hitting him. Zheng Zhutou hurriedly changed direction and hid in the house, but suddenly realized that a hidden weapon seemed to be waiting there early, and he was stunned for a while, and when he didn't know what to do, the knife had already caught up with him, grabbed He Yuanning, and hit Zheng Zhutou's throat.

"Hall Master You, I didn't expect us to meet twice in one day, why did you come late at night?" asked Zheng Zhutou without changing his face.

Xiaodao sneered and said, "Ming people don't say dark words, you and I know this matter well." With another force of the knife, Zheng Zhutou's neck had been cut with a bloody wound.

"Don't mess around, I'm the chief arrester of Yunyang Town, if I die, you don't want to get out alive, as long as I give an order... Before Zheng Zhutou finished speaking, Tang Tian had already flown down from the house, interrupted him and said, "An order?" Tang Tian took out the fan in his arms, swiped down along Zheng Zhutou's smooth chest, and said, "I see what you want to use to give an order now." ”

I saw Tang Tian grasp the handle of the fan hard, and a sharp blade ejected from the fan and plunged straight into Zheng Zhu's chest.

"Ahh You... Zheng Zhutou shouted loudly, his eyes widened, and he fell to the ground.

"Ah, here, dead. Mrs. He in the room saw that Zheng Zhutou had not returned for a long time, walked to the door to take a look, and when she saw the scene just now, she screamed in panic.

It was so quiet in the middle of the night, and when I shouted like this, I was immediately startled by the lights of the houses and courtyards up and down the He Mansion.

"What should I do?" Tang Tian didn't know what to do for a while, they were originally here to avenge this He family, but this He Yuanning really saw it in front of him, in case he told the identities of the two of them, it would be very troublesome in the future, so he looked at the knife and asked.

"Don't worry, since the two of you are here to avenge my He family, Yuanning will not reveal their identities. It's just that this woman colluded with outsiders and harmed my brother, and the two of them understood it together. He Yuanning suddenly said at this moment.

"This... The knife was originally intended to be solved with Mrs. Nahe, but when these words came out of this He Yuanning's mouth, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart.

Tang Tian saw the stunned expression on Xiao Dao's face, and naturally understood what he was, and immediately said, "This is simple. Tang Tian waved his right hand, and two hidden weapons flew out and hit Mrs. He's forehead.

Seeing the sound of footsteps approaching around him, Tang Tian grabbed the knife and shouted, "Farewell." With a jump, he jumped onto the roof with a knife.

At this moment, a group of family members also arrived with sticks and swords, and saw that Zheng Zhutou fell to the ground naked, and Mrs. He in the house had no breath, so Steward Li asked, "Little young master, what's going on?"

"Tonight, there are thieves who take advantage of the funeral of my He family to enter the house to steal, fortunately, even if Zheng Zhutou finds out, but the thief's martial arts are extraordinary, although Zheng Zhutou repels it, but he also dies of exhaustion, and his sister-in-law was unfortunately injured by the thief when fighting. He Yuanning said calmly.

That housekeeper Li has taken care of the He Mansion for many years, how can he not understand the situation in front of him, but the little young master who listened to it can come up with such a statement, and sighed with relief in his heart, the revival of the He family is hopeful. So he said loudly: "Did you understand what the little master said?"

"Yes. The family members also looked at each other and responded in unison.
