Chapter 189: Fleas and Ghosts on the Drum (4)

Let's say that Shi Xiu cleaned up the shop that day and rested in his own workshop. In the morning, he kept thinking about what the man said and couldn't make up his mind all day long.

It was that night when Yang Xiong was on duty and went out to sleep in the prison. The beautiful woman bribed Ying'er and set up an incense stand outside the backyard door as promised. As expected, the thief Bald came in the middle of the night. , there was only one old man at home, and as soon as it got dark, he went to bed after dinner. The girl Ying'er also knew what was going on, so she rested under the house and also looked out for the couple, as long as she didn't tell Shi Xiu. , everything was perfect. That night, the monk got on the bed, and the two of them had sex. Without much murmuring, they took off their clothes. , and this bald thief tasted the taste of a woman again, and it was as if his soul had been taken away. As the saying goes, he is so bold in sex, and this is the case. Although the dog man and woman in the relationship are wary, they are inevitably fascinated.

The noise could be heard from time to time. Shi Xiu was sleeping in a daze when he suddenly heard a woman's moans. The faint sounds disturbed Shi Xiu's sleepiness. She turned over and her ears were soothed. After unfolding it, he listened more and more carefully, but it seemed that it was not an hallucination. However, when Shi Xiu sat up and listened again, it was gone again. Shi Xiu cursed secretly and lay down again, unknowingly thinking about what he had encountered in the morning. After a while and a half, the man who arrived heard another sound of gunshot. It was faint and distinct, but it was also sudden in the night. However, the sound passed by in a flash, and there was no movement again.

Shi Xiu fell asleep on his side, and thought to himself, this has been going on for almost an hour, how can the elder brother be so kind? Thinking of this, Shi Xiu smiled, but the smile on his face suddenly solidified, No, isn't the eldest brother on duty in the prison? Shi Xiu suddenly opened his eyes and sat up. He thought of the brick he picked up when he came back in the afternoon. There were a man's footprints on it. Could it be this sister-in-law? Not virtuous.

Shi Xiu didn't dare to jump to conclusions, and when she listened attentively again, the sound disappeared again. After waiting for a long time, it didn't come back. Shi Xiu was filled with doubts, so she went back to the bed to sleep. However, that night I never closed my eyes again, and it was half past midnight.

I could only hear the dawn announcement and Toutuo came straight to the alley to knock wooden fish and call Buddha loudly.

Shi Xiu is an obedient person. Recalling what the man said, "Be sure to close the back of the place where the wooden fish sounds." When Shi Xiu thought of this, he understood nine points. He smiled coldly and thought about it: "This alley is an alley." "It's a dead end alley. Why is there such a Tutu? Coming here to knock wooden fish is definitely not a good thing. It's either adultery or robbery."

However, Shi Xiu thought of her sister-in-law's face, a gentle and virtuous appearance, but she could not associate it with that wild and wild woman. Although Shi Xiu seemed to have noticed something in her heart, she did not want to expose this reality. He did not I can believe that my sister-in-law can do such a shameful thing, but I can't sleep anymore. I can only hear the wooden fish knocking louder and louder, and the knocking becomes more urgent, and the tutu knocking comes and goes in the alley. When he got to the back door, he would shout loudly: "Save all sentient beings, save suffering, and save all Buddhas and Bodhisattvas."

Shi Xiu heard the strange cry and couldn't help it. She jumped up and didn't open the door. When she looked out from the crack of her own door, she saw a man wearing a turban in the darkness, emerging from the dark shadow. Shi Xiu came out, unlatched the door and went with Toutuo. Then Ying'er came out and closed the door. Shi Xiu saw it very clearly and couldn't help but take two steps back. She was very shocked. She was still imagining it just now, but she didn't know what was happening now. The execution was all before his eyes, Shi Xiu couldn't help but clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Brother is such a heroic man, and he got this **, but this woman concealed it, and did such a thing, if it weren't for that The younger generation pointed out that I was also trapped in it and didn’t know it. God damn this **.”

Shi Xiu waited until dawn to move the pork out and sell it for the morning market. However, she saw the man from yesterday walking past in the crowd. Shi Xiu rushed out of the shop and stopped Shi Qian in the crowd. Holding his hands, Shi Xiu said: "Brother, please take a step to speak."

When Shi Qian saw it was Shi Xiu, he smiled and said, "Why, you came here today to ask me for the three dollars you owe me on credit?"

"No, no, it's just..." Shi Xiu said this. After all, it was difficult to say anything due to his family's shame, and said: "Thank you for the righteous advice, I don't know the name of the righteous,"

Shi Qian didn't want to reveal his identity, so he said in a low voice: "Don't worry, I'm just a passerby. I won't mention this to others. I just feel sorry for Yang Xiong, the hero, but something like this happened in the backyard." ," At this point, Shi Qian said: "Whether Brother Yang's wisdom can be preserved depends on you." As he said this, Shi Qian took a step closer to Shi Xiu. Shi Xiu looked at it and knew that this man had something important to say. , he immediately bowed his head and came over.

Shi Qian said: "Whenever these guys take advantage of Brother Yang Xiong's night shift, they will mark the incense table in the backyard. Then the thief Bald will come. At the fifth watch, another Tutuo will come and knock the wooden fish to call the Buddha, and call the thief. Go away, thief,”

"This kind of thing," Shi Xiu clenched his fist and said, "You mean you want me to catch the rapist."

Shi Qian shook his head and said: "Brother Yang's matter can't be done by others, otherwise I have already taken action, and he still needs to do it himself. You and him are brothers, so it is most appropriate for you to talk to him, and design this **** were arrested together, and it’s up to Brother Yang Xiong to deal with it,”

Shi Xiu heard what was right and wanted to thank Shi Qian immediately. Shi Qian supported him and walked away with a smile. Before Shi Xiu had time to say goodbye, Shi Qian's figure disappeared into the crowd.

Shi Xiu looked at the people coming and going and thought to himself, this person came and went without a trace. He was very capable at handling things, but he refused to reveal his name. This couldn't help but add another layer of mystery to Shi Qian.

After cleaning up the stall, around noon, Shi Xiu went straight to the Zhou Yamen to look for Yang Xiong. When he was walking to the Zhou Bridge, Shi Xiu happened to meet Yang Xiong.

Yang Xiong looked at it and asked: "Brother, where are you coming from?"

Shi Xiudao: "I went here to ask for some money on credit, and I came to look for my brother on the way."

Yang Xiong said: "I am often busy with official affairs, and I have never had three drinks with my brothers and come here to sit for a while."

Yang Xiong led Shi Xiu to a restaurant under Zhouqiao, and they found a secluded pavilion. The two of them sat down, and asked the bartender to bring a bottle of good wine, and arranged some delicacies. After three drinks, Yang Xiong saw Shi Xiu just lowered her head and thought, as if she was holding something in her heart and couldn't say it out. Yang Xiong was not only sharp-eyed, but also had an impatient personality. He immediately asked bluntly: "Brother, you are a little unhappy. Could it be that some words at home have hurt you?" ,"

Shi Xiudao: "There is nothing in the family that hurts me. I appreciate that my brother treats me as his own flesh and blood, but... I have something to say, do you dare to say it?"

When Yang Xiong saw Shi Xiu's hesitant words, he patted Shi Xiu's shoulder and said, "Brother, why are you seeing someone outside today? If you have any questions, it's okay to say it."

Shi Xiu lowered his eyes, glanced at the wine bowl in front of him, then drank it all in one gulp, and said straightforwardly: "Brother goes out every day, only to socialize with the officials, but doesn't know what's going on behind the scenes. This sister-in-law is not a good person. Brother has noticed that I've looked at it many times, but I didn't dare to say anything. Yesterday I was prompted by someone, and today I looked carefully, and I couldn't help but come to look for my brother... It's no wonder if I say it bluntly,"

After Yang Xiong heard this, the smile on his face suddenly froze, he shook his head and said: "There is such a thing, tell me who it is,"

Shi Xiu said: "That fellow was doing the dojo at home the day before yesterday. I invited the thief Tu Haili to come. My sister-in-law and he were flirting with each other, and both brothers saw it. Didn't we go to the temple to pay the blood basin for repentance before, and both of them brought wine? When I came back, a few days ago, the thief either brought me drinks, or in the afternoon of that day, a tile fell from the window of my brother's house. Did he remember that?"

"The woman said, was it because the civet cats were playing around and tossing it around?" Yang Xiong frowned slightly.

"When I went back that day, the first thing I looked at was the man's footprints on the fallen tiles. I still leave them under the bed. The footprints were stained with sesame oil. Although the marks had dried, facing the light, We can still get a rough idea," Shi Xiu said: "I became suspicious that day. The next day, when I was selling meat, a young man came over and told me that whenever he heard the sound of wooden fish at the fifth watch, he would ask me to Guarding the back door, I heard a tutu come straight to the alley today and knock on wooden fish to call Buddha. The knocking was so weird that when I got up at five o'clock to take a look, I saw that it was indeed a bald man wearing a turban and going out of the house. He looked like this. **, what’s the use of him?”

After hearing this, Yang Xiong couldn't help but said angrily: "I treat her badly, how dare this bitch do this?"

Shi Xiu said: "Brother, please calm down and listen to my brother's plan. I will capture this guy alive with you. When the time comes, whether to kill or cut into pieces, just listen to my brother's instructions."

Yang Xiong panted heavily and drank two bowls of wine. Then he suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Just tell me, I will follow your plan."

Shi Xiu said: "Tonight you and I won't mention this matter when we go back. Just treat it as normal. Tomorrow you just say that the Yamen wants you to change shifts and add another night shift. My brother will rest temporarily in the shop at the entrance of the alley and wait. If you knock on the door again after the third watch, the guy will definitely leave through the back door first. Brother will take it and let him go."

Yang Xiong nodded, clenched his fists, and said, "Brother, if you see it, come here like this."

Shi Xiu added: "Brother, please don't let the news leak out tonight. If that lady notices it, it will be bad. By the way, that lady bribed the maid, so don't let the maid know about it."

Yang Xiong nodded and said: "I will do as you say tomorrow."

The two drank a few more drinks, paid back the money for the drinks, and went downstairs together. When they came out of the wine shop, they were about to go back together, but on the way, they saw four or five Yu Hou coming towards Yang Xiong, and said to Yang Xiong: "That's not Yang Jie." "The county magistrate is sitting in the back garden and has sent us to find the commander to compete with us with guns and clubs."

Yang Xiong had something on his mind and didn't want to go, but he couldn't shirk the order from the county magistrate. He immediately told Shi Xiu: "My lord called me, so I have to answer. Brother, you go home first." Shi Xiu returned immediately. I came home, cleaned up the store, and then went to the workshop to rest.
