Piao Tian Literature Chapter 425 Are you the rescuer invited by the monkey?
Well……
Duan Peng, who had a kind smile on his face, immediately stiffened. He looked blankly at the little guy in front of him, who was no longer than his waist. His eyes were pure and innocent.
Me? The reinforcements invited by the monkey?
"Brother, you are talking nonsense!" When she heard her brother talking nonsense again, the little girl's face suddenly turned red with embarrassment, and she quickly stepped forward and pulled her brother behind her.
The little boy mumbled, lowered his head and looked at his toes, mumbling, not knowing what he was talking about.
The little girl pouted angrily and glared at her brother. Then she turned around, raised her head, and looked at the huge creature in front of her. The sound was as crisp as a silver bell, which was refreshing.
"Are you Duan Peng?" the little girl asked with a sweet smile.
Duan Peng nodded blankly.
Hearing that this person was Duan Peng, the little girl immediately cheered. She clapped her little hands and quickly took out the jade pendant from her arms. She stuffed it into An Peng's hand and said happily: "Hehe, uncle who can make snowmen."
Let me give it to you!"
There was something cold in his hand. Duan Peng looked down and his eyes widened immediately.
It seemed to be the military counselor's personal badge. I quickly got closer and looked through it. Yes, it was indeed it.
Could it be that the young master is in danger?
Thinking of this, Duan Peng suddenly felt a chill all over. After looking away from the jade pendant, he quickly squatted down and asked the little girl eagerly: "Well, little baby, where is the uncle who gave you this thing?"
The little girl didn't understand why her uncle was so anxious. Her big, watery eyes blinked: "He is drinking at the Xinghua Village Tavern in the city!"
Xinghua Village?
Isn’t Xinghua Village from Shanxi?
Duan Peng heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly thought of something, and his eyes suddenly lit up. Shengtang.com
He stood up with a swish, turned around, and yelled at the top of his voice to the back hall: "Ma San, don't fucking sleep. Wake up the brothers quickly, something's wrong!"
"Come on, come on!" The door panel of the back hall was knocked open with a crash, and a bear-like man with a waist circumference of eight feet and a height of eight feet rushed in with a cold blow of snow.
"Hurry up and take someone with me, it's urgent!" Duan Peng turned around and walked to the counter, grabbed the dog-skin hat from the counter, covered his head, and said eagerly.
"Okay!" Ma San nodded quickly, turned around, ran to the door, and shouted into the snowy courtyard: "Be quick, hurry up!"
Not long after, a dozen men wearing sheepskin jackets and carrying steel knives at their waists rushed from the backyard into the pharmacy. These men were burly, with electric eyes and stern expressions, and they looked like a group of heroes.
"Okay, come with me!" Duan Peng took the short knife handed over by Ma San and stuck it inside his sheepskin coat. After patting it hard, he pressed his hat down, opened the door and faced the wind.
It's snowing outside.
Behind him, a dozen tough men filed out, silent as ice water.
After Duan Peng took two steps, he suddenly realized something. He turned around and looked at the two frightened children standing at the door, and suddenly realized something.
He reached out and patted his forehead, shook his head with a wry smile. He walked over again, glanced at the little girl with a smile, and then said to Ma San: "Go, get a hundred taels of silver from the counter, and give these two little guys military pay!
Then, send another brother to send these two little soldiers home!"
"yes!"
Ma San nodded quickly, and with great dexterity, his huge body turned back to the pharmacy. He opened the drawer, grabbed two fifty-tael silver ingots, then rushed out and gave the two large ingots to the little girl.
"No, no, I, I can't have it!" The little girl came from a poor family. When she saw the hundred taels of silver, she was so frightened that she stepped back quickly, waving her hands and refusing.
"Little guy, you must obey orders as a soldier!" Ma San said with a straight face and a fierce expression.
"I..." The little girl looked at the silver ingot in the big bear's hand and bit her lip. After thinking of her mother who was ill in bed at home, she finally nodded and agreed.
Ma San laughed when he saw the little girl accept it. After getting up, he pointed at a soldier and said, "Send these two children back!"
"Yes!" The soldier took a step forward and said in a deep voice.
Seeing the soldier taking two children, walking far away on the windy and snowy road. Duan Peng smiled, turned around and said, "Let's go!"
The group of people had just started. They saw the brother who had been following the little girl go and come back.
The little guy was panting and spraying white mist. He looked at the bear-like Ma San curiously. After looking up and down, he asked crisply: "Are you the black bear spirit? Are you the rescuer invited by the monkey?"
"
Ma San: "..."
Hahaha……
Behind him, Duan Peng and more than a dozen people could not help but burst into laughter when they saw Ma San's dull eyes, gaping mouth, and drool.
The sound was vibrating and full of energy. It echoed in the streets with the sound of rustling falling snow. The falling goose feathers seemed to be shaken away.
…
The heavy snow falls to the ground one after another, like catkins flying in March. Occasionally, the wind blows, and the falling snow becomes slightly messy.
The cold wind carried snowflakes and blew into the tavern. They were quickly melted by the heat in the tavern. At the door of the tavern, the melted snowflakes soaked the floor.
In order to prevent customers from slipping, the attentive store owner also spread a piece of gray linen at the door. This made it much easier for customers to come in and out.
Maybe it’s because most pubs in the city are closed, but the Xinghua Village pub here is doing very well.
There are five or six tables in the small tavern, and except for the table closest to the counter, the rest are full of people. On the wine table, there are people drinking and drinking, people coming and going, and it is very lively.
After entering the tavern, Lu Heng and the other three found a corner to sit down.
After a while, a waiter came over with a discount on towels and asked enthusiastically: "Three guests, what would you like to eat?"
Wen Zhang hesitated for a moment, turned around, looked at Lu Heng, and asked what he meant.
"You can make the decision, sir!" Lu Heng handed over his hands with a very respectful expression and said to Wen Zhang. Looking at Wen Zhang's stunned expression, Lu Heng smiled and winked at him secretly.
Wen Wen was naturally a person with a clear mind. After getting Lu Heng's signal, he stopped acting. He knocked his fingers on the table, shook his head and said: "Since I have entered your tavern, I naturally want to drink Fenjiu. Let's take a pound first.
Bamboo leaves, a pound of beef with soy sauce, and a plate of beans to go with the wine! That’s it!”
Wen Wen generously threw a piece of silver to the waiter, waved his hand and let him go.
"Master Wen often comes here to eat?" Lu Heng asked with a smile after taking a sip of tea.
Wen Zhang shook his head and said: "No, although the drinks here are good, they are still a bit expensive and I can't afford them!"
Ah……
Hearing this, Lu Heng was stunned for a moment, but then he thought about how throughout the article, he always had some candies in his pockets and would share some with the children when he saw them, and he naturally understood.
"Master Wen, do you like children very much?" Lu Heng picked up the teacup, blew on it, and took a sip. He asked with a smile.
Wen Zhang's expression froze, but then he nodded with a smile: "Well, seeing them is like seeing my children!"
The look of pain on Wen Wen's face happened to be caught by Lu Heng's eyes.
Seeing him lowering his head and speaking calmly, his words could not hide the e-commerce in his heart. Lu Heng was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that his family members were not seen in the dilapidated government office.
At this time, seeing Wen Wen's expression of pain, Lu Heng hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why don't you see Mr. Wen's family members?"
Ordinarily, Wen Zhang is already a high-ranking official in the border area and has enough power. Moreover, after staying in Baoding Mansion for such a long time, his family members should accompany him. However, the government office is deserted and unpopular. Thinking about it now, it is even more...
curious.
At this time, the waiter had already walked over with drinks.
"One pound of green bamboo leaves, one pound of beef, Xiaodie cold vegetables. What else would you like to order, sir?" The waiter put the food on the table and asked the article with a smile.
"You go down first!" Wen Zhang waved his hand and said calmly.
After the waiter left, Wen Zhang looked at the blue and white porcelain wine pot on the table with some pain. After taking a deep breath, he took a sip of the tea in the bowl and said with a long breath: "They are all dead!"
Then, he picked up the flask and started pouring wine into the bowl. Wen Zhang's face twitched, and he tried his best to endure the pain in his heart and said: "When we were crossing the Yellow River, the boat capsized. They all drowned, my wife, my son,
There is also a daughter whose whereabouts are unknown! Oh, she must be dead too!"
"Who did it?" Lu Heng looked solemn when he heard this. He raised his head, looked at the article with burning eyes, stretched out his hand to hold down his wine bowl, and asked in a deep voice.
The reason why Lu Heng asked this question was because Zhou officials, especially high-ranking officials like Xiang Wenwen, were escorted by soldiers when they went to their posts. It was basically impossible for any danger to occur. Moreover, according to Lu Heng,
The season when the article took office was at the turn of spring and summer. At that time, the water level of the Yellow River was slow, and it was even less likely to capsize. In addition, the escort ships were government-made and their quality was absolutely reliable. In this season, such a thing happened on the Yellow River. If we say
Without **, it would be simply impossible.
When Wen Zhang heard Lu Heng directly ask who did it, the wine bowl in his hand suddenly froze. His expression was extremely painful as he struggled.
"Tell me, who is it?" Lu Heng asked again, his voice much colder.
Wen Zhang lowered his head, and the muscles on his face twitched for a while. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "An Peng!"
Looking up, Wen Zhang's eyes were bloodshot, and he tried his best to hold back his anger and said: "Xiaguan has been conducting overt and covert investigations for many years, and I can be sure that it was An Peng who did it!"
After saying that, Wen Zhang smiled ferociously for a moment, then pushed Lu Heng's hand away, picked up the wine bowl and drank it all in one gulp.
At this moment, Agui, who had never said a word, suddenly made a move like lightning and snatched the wine bowl from Wen Zhang's hand.
After Agui put down the wine bowl, he looked at the puzzled and angry eyes of Lu Heng and Wen Zhang. He lowered his head, dipped his finger in tea, and wrote a word on the table.
