Chapter 42: Murder of the Adulterer (I)

Back at the Wen Mansion, he hurriedly asked to see the clerk.

"Outside, I found a very suspicious outsider in the town today. ”

The clerk said strangely: "Wu Daxia has only been in Shuangping Town for a few days, how did he identify outsiders?"

"That man went to the inn when he got to town, I guess he can't be a local, right?"

The clerk's face sank slightly, "Where did Wu Daxia find this person?"

Xiao Ziyang saw the clerk's dissatisfaction with him, and said with a smile: "As soon as this person arrived in the town, he walked around the Wenfu, seemingly asking about the price of goods, but in fact, a pair of eyes kept observing the Wenfu, and his behavior was very suspicious. ”

The clerk's face improved slightly after hearing this, "What does this person look like and where does he stay?"

"This person is dressed as a businessman, white and fat, and he invested in Shuangpinglou this morning. ”

The clerk glared at Xiao Ziyang angrily, "Most of the grain shops in Shuangping Town are located near Wenfu, and the businessman who came to our Shuangping Town is naturally doing grain business, he doesn't walk around Wenfu, where to go; ”

Xiao Ziyang said helplessly: "It's always good to be careful, or ask Master Wen to send some secret whistles around the young lady's yard." ”

The clerk thought for a while, "It's better to be careful, I don't know what Wu Daxia plans to do next." ”

"I'll go to the garden tonight too. ”

The clerk gave Xiao Ziyang a look that you should have done a long time ago and said, "Then it's hard Wu Daxia, you will stay outside the courtyard of the young lady with Wudutou tonight." ”

"Outside, I don't plan to be with Wudutou, I plan to hide in the forest between the courtyard of the young lady and the wall of the outer courtyard, I am quite good at hidden weapons, if the thief comes tonight, eighty percent will pass by there, I am in the dark, use the hidden weapon to surprise him. ”

The clerk thought about it for a while, and seemed to be a little worried that no one would follow and Xiao Ziyang would be lazy, but he still agreed to Xiao Ziyang's request: "It's okay, you can arrange it yourself." ”

As night gradually fell, Xiao Ziyang wrapped himself in a cloak with green veins on a black background and shrunk on a large tree branch seven or eight feet away from the wall.

This branch is the densest place in the canopy, and it is extremely difficult to see the inside hidden by the dense foliage from the outside, but when you look from the inside out, you can see the open space from the wall to the canopy under the light of the stars.

Xiao Ziyang squatted all night, but he didn't even see a ghost.

This did not come as a surprise to him. The reason why he stayed there last night was because of the care of Clerk An on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was also just in case.

Early the next morning, Xiao Ziyang returned to the guest room and called the reluctant Wen Jin and asked him to inquire if there was an unusual person who did not return all night last night.

After a while, Wen Jin came back and told Xiao Ziyang that sure enough, there was a subordinate who was in charge of purchasing, and he never came back after going out yesterday afternoon. He asked nervously, "Wu Daxia, is it that the red silk guest came and took him away." ”

Xiao Ziyang comforted him and said: "Don't worry, it doesn't have to be taken away, that person has an urgent matter at home, so he may not be able to go home." ”

"That person is also the son of the Wen family, and he should go back to Wenfu when he goes home, don't worry, how can I not worry, my sister is Miss's personal maid, Miss takes care of our sisters and brothers like her own brothers and sisters, she must not have an accident. No, I'm going to report to the master. With that, he rushed out of the room.

Xiao Ziyang shook his head, and did not stop him, although the Wen Mansion may startle the snake if the action of the Wen Mansion is too big, but Xiao Ziyang is not an official errand, and he does not owe the Wen family any favors, the reason why he is here is just to avoid the condemnation of his conscience; if it comes to fruition, it is the fortune of his Wen family, if it doesn't work, he Xiao Ziyang does not need to continue to consume here.

It didn't take long for Wen Jin to rush in from outside the door, panting and shouting, "Master, please." ”

Xiao Ziyang glanced at him lightly, "Wen Jin, you'd better pretend to be the same as usual, if everyone knows about the matter and is seen by the red silk customers, my recent hard work will be in vain." ”

Wen Jin was taken aback, and hurriedly replied, "I know the way." ”

"You stay in the house and don't go out. With that, he turned and walked out of the room.

Xiao Ziyang came to the main hall, and the clerk was walking around like ants on a hot pot. Seeing Xiao Ziyang coming in, he jumped up and grabbed his hand, "Is it really a red silk guest?" ”

Xiao Ziyang withdrew his hand and said, "Eighty percent is him, have you told others about this?"

"Not yet, by the way, hurry up and call Wudu Tou and ask him to take people to be on guard. ”

"Wait, clerk, if the news spreads in the attached middle school, it will inevitably be panicked, and it will definitely be noticed by the red silk guest, then he will definitely disappear again, and then wait for the opportunity to move, and he will definitely be more secretive when he comes again, and I will not be able to help you at that time." ”

The clerk grabbed Xiao Ziyang's hand again, like grasping a life-saving straw: "That's good, by the way! Haven't you already found his traces? You should take someone to arrest him now, and it's better if you can't catch him and drive him away!"

"Yes, I know where that person is staying now, but Master Wen also thinks too highly of me, the red silk guest has been ravaging Xiliang for nearly ten years, how many people want his life, but he is still at large, is this just luck? It's not that I raise the morale of others, if it is head-on, it is good that I can save this little life, let alone arrest him. Besides, with the prudence of the Red Silk Guest, once I point it out, he will not fight with me, and he will probably turn and flee, and I estimate that the Red Silk Guest is very good at disguise, and he will surely make a comeback after the transformation, and then I will not be so lucky to find his trace again. ”

"Then what do you say? The clerk's hand trembled slightly.

"You ask the young lady to secretly change his residence, and then find someone to pretend to be the young lady, and I will still ambush and attack him on the road where the red silk guest is most likely to go. By the way, the person pretending to be a young lady had better find a good fighter with empty hands, and when he thought he was about to succeed, he suddenly burst into a rage, and maybe he could kill him. This man is a madman, and he will not give up until he has his eye on the woman, and I have heard that he once kept an eye on this family for three whole years, and when the family thought it was safe and let down his guard, he suddenly attacked!"

The clerk's hands trembled even more fiercely: "Then what if you can't kill him this time, this person can be chased and killed by so many people unscathed;

"All I can say is do your best. I suggest that you send someone to the Damen Sect to hire a real master to sit in your house now, in case we fail this time, we can also keep you safe for a while, and then find a way to secretly send your daughter to another place to hide. ”

"Okay, I'll do as you say, I'll increase your reward to three hundred and two months, you can stay in the future, I will keep my daughter even if I go bankrupt." ”
