"Chang Gong?" Mrs. Dong smiled awkwardly, "Why are you here?"
"Tell me, who did you hear these words from?" Jiang Changgong tried his best not to be fierce, but his eyes could not help but become fierce.
Mrs. Dong's face suddenly wrinkled into a chrysanthemum, "Don't be mean to me. I didn't say this. I just said it once, and you happened to hear it. No one else knew what I said."
How many times!"
"Who did you listen to? If you don't tell me, don't blame me for being rude!" Jiang Changgong said angrily.
Old Mrs. Dong immediately covered her heart, "Oh, my heart hurts! Don't scare me, you'll scare my old lady to death!"
Jiang Changgong suppressed his anger and looked at her, "If you say it, I won't pursue it. If you don't say it, I will blame it all on you! You talk nonsense everywhere, don't think I dare not take action against you!"
Speaking of which, it is better to say it than not to say it. Old Mrs. Dong rolled her eyes and calculated the account clearly, "I told you, you really don't blame me?"
"Seriously!" Jiang Changgong vowed.
"Nacheng, let me tell you, I heard it from Dong Gou Gou in the north of the village!"
Jiang Changgong frowned and looked at her, and she became anxious and said quickly: "It's really true! Last night, he slept with Xiu Niang, and he said what he said. He also said what Xiu Niang said to him personally, and also said
, Xiu Niang said, you have to marry her no matter what, she already has..."
Jiang Changgong couldn't listen anymore and shouted: "Stop talking! If you let me know you say a word again, I will be rude to you!"
Old Mrs. Dong quickly tightened her lips, shook her head desperately, and said through her teeth: "If you don't say it, I won't say it, I will never say it!"
After Jiang Changgong heard this, he turned around and headed towards the north of the village.
Arriving at Dong Gou Gou's house in the north of the village, Jiang Changgong pushed the door open and entered directly without knocking.
This house is really a mess. Not only is it a mess, there is nothing of value.
There was no one in the house. Jiang Changgong suspected that Dong Gouou was lying in the woodshed after drinking too much, so he went to the woodshed to look around again.
Unexpectedly, he even dug through the firewood pile, but Dong Gou Gou was still nowhere to be seen.
Where did this person go?
Jiang Changgong searched around the village but couldn't find it.
Probably because he knew that he was causing trouble for Mrs. Dong, he didn't hear anyone gossiping about it.
But he still had to find the culprit.
Fortunately, he heard a news that hunters came into the mountains today and sent back news that they had hunted some wild boars.
Jiang Changgong's mind suddenly changed and he thought that the wine jars in Dong Gou Gou's house seemed to be empty.
This guy usually doesn't work much. Once he runs out of money, he has to kill his animals and sell them.
Come to think of it, he should be making money for drinking again.
Seeing that it was almost dark, Jiang Changgong had to walk into the mountains.
Could it be that Xiu Niang suddenly ran away because she was bullied by Dong Gou Gou? Or did she hear these rumors first and couldn't bear it?
Thinking of this, Jiang Changgong quickened his pace.
It was dark and the road was difficult to walk. With only a torch, Jiang Changgong had a very difficult time walking, but fortunately he soon met the group of hunters.
They built a fire and were resting around it, drinking water and eating the dry food they had brought.
Jiang Changgong hurried forward, looked around, and said, "Can you see Dong Gou Gou?"
"No, it's a good thing we saw him, otherwise where would this good luck come from today!" The hunter turned around with a smile and saw several prey piled over there.
Jiang Changgong didn't take it seriously at first. After confirming that Dong Gou Gou hadn't come, he thought about whether to look for it again or simply go back first.
Just as I was thinking about it, I heard the hunter suddenly say: "Look, what is hanging on the antlers of this deer?"
The deer had sharp horns, and there were some rags hanging from the horns. The hunter reached out to take them off, frowning and looking at them for a long time, "There seems to be blood on it. It looks like it may have hurt someone."
Jiang Changgong frowned and stepped forward: "Can you show me this piece of cloth?"
"Here, take it!" Orion handed it to him generously.
In the light of the fire, Jiang Changgong looked at the piece of cloth carefully and had a direction in his mind.
There was indeed blood stains on this piece of cloth, but looking at the cloth, he thought of Dong Gougou.
He has been wearing such rags all year round. Not only is the color invisible, but it has also become pickled.
Jiang Changgong smelled it and immediately discovered that the material was indeed Dong Gou Gou's.
This means that he did enter the mountain.
Jiang Changgong's desire to find the culprit became even more intense.
"Everyone, I have something else to do, let's go first!"
After Jiang Changgong finished speaking, the hunter persuaded him: "It's getting late, and there might be wild beasts in the woods. You'd better wait until dawn before leaving!"
"No, it's okay, I won't go deep into the forest." After Jiang Changgong finished speaking, he turned around and left resolutely.
He had to find the culprit sooner, otherwise the rumors would stop.
Thinking of this, Jiang Changgong held up the torch and continued moving forward.
After leaving the hunters, the forest became dark, and the sound of roaring beasts seemed to be faintly heard.
Jiang Changgong couldn't help but tighten the hatchet at his waist.
In the distance, beasts roared faintly, and strange roars came from the woods ahead.
It seemed like someone was roaring, and it seemed like some kind of beast.
Jiang Changgong quickly stopped and listened.
It seemed that it was indeed a roar, but it also seemed to be faintly mixed with laughter. It was really a strange beast.
Jiang Changgong was about to retreat when he suddenly heard a shout from the other side: "Grab...the eggs..."
As soon as he heard the sound, he immediately became anxious and hurried towards the place where the sound was.
This voice sounds like Zhenniang!
Jiang Changgong approached with a torch and saw two black figures over there. They didn't look like wild beasts, but more like a man bullying a woman.
This time, he was no longer afraid and shouted quickly: "Who?!"
The sound stopped for a moment, and then a clear voice came out: "Grab the eggs! Grab the eggs!"
Then there was the rustling sound of running away.
Jiang Changgong held up a torch and chased after him.
He kicked the man over and heard a wailing cry, and Jiang Changgong breathed a sigh of relief.
"Oh my mother!" This voice turned out to be Dong Gou Gou.
It was really hard for him to find it, and finally the hard work paid off.
Jiang Changgong grabbed Dong Gou Gou's collar and shouted loudly: "What are you doing?!"
Dong Gouou wailed: "I didn't do anything! You tell me, you have to take care of Xiu Niang's affairs, and you have to take care of this fool. You are really a monk training a Taoist priest, and you have to be lenient!"
Jiang Changgong kicked him again and said angrily: "Tell me, what good things have you done?!"
Dong Gou Gou was obviously kicked, but he covered his head and wailed: "What good things can I do? No, no, no, what bad things can I do? I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes, and I almost didn't let the deer chase me to death.
That's good, you came over and kicked me again!"
Jiang Changgong turned around and saw Zhenniang hugging her clothes tightly and kept muttering: "Grab the eggs, snatch the eggs."
Suddenly a light flashed through his mind, and he realized that he didn't seem to have asked nothing.
