Chapter 188: The Fire on Wu Daguiqian Village

Early the next morning, the news that Du Hu Jin had been stabbed to death on the west bank of the Bahe River spread throughout Bahe County; some people clapped their hands in celebration, and some people wept sadly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info In addition, the market is still full of people, and the sun is still rising in the east and setting in the west, as if there is neither any loss nor gain.

However, it was time to contact Liu Qing to assassinate the people who would not change the money, but it was time to fulfill their promise and give people to go to Wu Daguiqian Village in the town to cash in five thousand taels of silver. Today's weather is still gray, still dry and cold, people don't want to go out, but Wu Dagui's money village opened earlier than ever today.

Wu Chong, the shopkeeper, is a wealthy man, and in this town, there are no friends he can't make, and there is no woman he can't get his hands on, so in the minds of ordinary people, this person is a vicious face of a local snake. And in fact, it's true, he is a tyrant in this town, and he can eat both black and white!

At this time, there was nothing going on in the bank, so there was no one in the hall except for a few tables and chairs. At this moment, a person walked in at the door. This man, dressed in a collared mink and cranes, stepped on a pair of short cotton boots made of brown fabric, had a grim expression, a high nose, a wide mouth and thin lips, and carried a long black sheath sword in his hand.

When he saw that there was no one in the bank, he tapped lightly on the open door next to him with the hilt of his sword, "Is there anyone inside?" After two consecutive sounds, the door in the backyard creaked open. I saw a middle-aged man with a small height and two mustaches, walking out with a smile.

The man's sharpened face, slightly upturned lips, and a pair of eyelid eyes slid around, setting off his uncomfortable grinning expression, which made people think that he was cunning and suspicious; he stepped forward and arched his hand towards the visitor with a smile, "Good morning, young man!" He said, "I don't know this young man, come to our money bank this morning, do you want to exchange money, or do you want to redeem tickets?"

The man looked at him, "Boss, is your shopkeeper there?"

"I'm the shopkeeper, Wu Chong! I don't know what the young man is called, and what advice do you have?"

When the young swordsman heard him say this, he looked around the living room, and looking at the expression, he was wary of whether there would be unrelated people present! He saw that there were only two of them inside and out, so he handed the other party a small note in the palm of his hand, "Boss Wu, after reading this, you will understand!" He said.

Wu Chong took the note and looked at it, then smiled, "Oh! He said, "But, so much money, Shaoxia, how can you bring it alone?"

"Don't worry about the shopkeeper Wu!" said the young swordsman, "and I have a carriage parked outside the door. ”

When the other party heard this, he immediately tilted his head, stood on tiptoe, and looked at the situation outside the door through the young swordsman's left shoulder, "Oh! He said, "That's not a problem, it's good to have a carriage, not to mention only five thousand taels, it is estimated that it will not be a problem to carry six or seven thousand." ”

The other party did not answer, but smiled faintly.

"Shaoxia, the young coachman outside the door, but the coachman you Gu is still an ordinary friend, or a good brother who knows the roots?" asked the shopkeeper Wu again.

But the other party was a little impatient, "It's my own business," he said, "Don't worry about the shopkeeper Wu!" He didn't have the slightest smile on his face when he spoke.

When the other party heard this, he smiled awkwardly and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Yes, yes, yes! ”

"Okay, or else!" Shopkeeper Wu suddenly said, "My family's treasury is in the backyard, and it is not impossible to carry these five thousand taels to the carriage in front of the door, but it is a waste of time; if the young man is willing to take a convenient step, please drive the carriage directly into the backyard from the courtyard gate." This not only saves some effort, but also brings convenience to everyone! I don't know ......."

"Yes. Without waiting for the other party to finish speaking, the young swordsman said, "Please also ask Shopkeeper Wu to lead the way!"

So, Wu Chong walked past him, walked straight out of the door, and led the way in front. They bypassed a row of fences at the entrance of the bank, followed a muddy road, followed the solid wood fence of the bank, and drove to the back, and when they came to the back, Wu Chong ran forward first, pushed open the wooden gate of the fence, let the carriage in, and followed a path on the right side with weeds soaked red by wind and frost until they came to the back door of a house.

After the carriage stopped, the young swordsman who was driving jumped down from the driver's seat with a pine pattern ancient sword, and at this time, Wu Chong, the shopkeeper of the bank, turned around and was about to knock on the back door of the house. Suddenly, when he saw the young swordsman jump, he jumped to the ground and stood in front of him. With a slightly frightened look, he smiled and said, "This little brother is so handsome, he must be good!"

"Don't dare to be. The young swordsman said casually, not caring about the other party's feelings.

After that, Wu Chong, the shopkeeper of the bank, laughed hehehe, "Wait a minute, you two!" he said, "I'll go now, and open the door in front." ”

The young swordsman nodded, but did not speak. At this time, he and the young swordsman who accompanied him both held the long sword in their arms. For a cold wind blew from the row of green bamboos on the side, and even their horses could not help shivering, so that they would feel much warmer when they held their swords in their arms and arched their shoulders.

Just then, the back door of the house heard the sound of a latch clicking, and then the door creaked open. I saw that Wu Chong, the shopkeeper of the money village, beckoned to the two, "Come, come, come, two young heroes come in!" he said, "You come in and count." ”

When the young swordsman heard this, he was stunned for a moment, because, in his impression, every time he withdrew cash, no matter how much it was, no matter where it was, there was no boss of the money bank who said that he wanted him to count the purpose himself, and he had never lost a penny.

But now, he suddenly felt that this shopkeeper Wu was not very happy to do things, and he was rambling one after another! Finally, he nodded, but said to the young swordsman who was traveling with him: "Brother, I'll go in, you wait outside!" The young swordsman immediately nodded, so the young swordsman stepped on the stone steps behind him with his sword.

"Why don't you let that little brother come in with you!" Immediately, Shopkeeper Wu stood in the door and said to the young swordsman who was coming up from the stone steps, "You two will order together, won't it be faster." ”

"No need," said the young swordsman coldly as he climbed the stone steps and looked at the other party, "I can do this little thing alone." ”

"Oh!" the other party snorted and said, "That's okay, that's okay!"

When the young swordsman stepped into the back door, the shopkeeper Wu immediately closed the back door with a bang, and even the young swordsman standing next to the carriage below was startled when he heard it. For a long time, the back door never opened, and no movement was heard inside, so the young swordsman felt a little uneasy.

In the end, he decided to knock on the door and see what was going on inside. However, he ran up and knocked on the door a dozen times, but to no avail, and the door never opened, so the boy was deeply disturbed, and he immediately drew his sword in his hand, and kicked the back door open. Suddenly, the scene in front of him surprised him! )
