Chapter 85: Friends come from far away

Views:

When Zhan Ning'er and An Nantian were arguing, there were three people standing at the window downstairs of them.

The man in the middle is a tall and thin man, wearing a green robe like a piece of clothing on a green bamboo pole. The man standing on the left of him is a short and fat man with a burden on his shoulder and a stick in his hand. The whistle stick, the person on the right is much more normal than the two of them, with a whistle stick in his arms, a waist knife pinned to his waist, and a few buns in his hand, eating big mouthfuls.

The thin bamboo pole in the middle put his hands on his slender waist that could be folded by the wind, and said annoyedly: "Madam move your mouth, let's run and break our legs. It's been so long since we have been chasing all the way to Hu County. , I don’t know where he went again, where can I find him in the vast crowd.”

The man who was eating the steamed stuffed bun said vaguely: "Third steward, you are too honest. Let's deal with it casually, and just say that if we don't find it, we should do it. Why are you so stubborn? It stands to reason that he should go back to the capital now , he came to the southwest to avoid us, why not leave after so long?"

Qingzhu Ganer slapped him on the head resentfully, and emphasized: "My name is Yang Sanshou, and there is a three in my name, but I am the chief steward, not the third steward. I have told you many times, but I just can't remember." , are you short-sighted?"

The man who ate the steamed stuffed bun quickly admitted his mistake: "Yes! Butler Sanshou!"

Yang Sanshou gave him a disgusted look, and complained, "If your mother wasn't my distant cousin, I wouldn't have called you to the Yang family to work. You're so stupid and you can eat, how can you be a servant?"

The short fat man on the other side said: "Boss, we don't know the place where we live here. How can we find him? Do we have to ask every family? This place is not like a small village like a mountain village. Everyone in the village knows what's going on here. If you want to inquire, you may not be able to inquire about it."

Yang Sanshou thought for a while, and said: "That's right! There is Qi Mu here, who has some business dealings with our Yang family. I met him once, let's ask him for help."

Humpty Dumpty said: "Boss, she may be able to talk to our wife, but with us..."

Yang Sanshou said: "If you don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, it's such a small matter to look for people, wouldn't he refuse to agree?"

As Yang Sanshou spoke, he stopped a passerby and asked about the residence of Qi Mu's family, a local tycoon.

Yang Sanshou didn't know why Madam wanted to put Xue Shuiwu and Yang Leyao to death. If the orphan and widow escaped, he would run away, but if he didn't understand, he would execute it. He is Madam's loyal dog.

These days, he searched and inquired everywhere, but he really suffered a lot. Fortunately, there are not many outsiders passing by in many mountain villages and towns, and there are even fewer people like Ye Xiaotian who walk alone in a family of three. I had an impression, so I found Hu County all the way.

The two people traveling with him were Yue Ming, the short fat man, and Xing Erzhu, the bun eater, who were his two confidantes. Although it is said that he is doing things for his wife, but this time it is a murderous business, and he dare not use someone who is not too reliable.

In the hall of the Qi Mansion, Qi Mu was furious at Luo Xiaoye: "Nephew, you have hundreds of soldiers in your hands anyway, and they can't be put on display? Huh? You can't even do such a small thing if you are asked to do it. Until now There is still no trace of Hua Yunfei's whereabouts!

In fact, I didn't count on you in the first place. You are far worse than your father. If your official position is not hereditary, you will not be able to get the position of inspection department with your head bent. But now that something happened to Meng Qingwei, I have to save this person. I really don't have the skills to do it all. To find out the whereabouts of Hua Yunfei, you must go all out! "

Luo Xunjian was blushed by Qi Mu's training.

Qi Mu's father died to save Luo Xiaoye's grandfather during a mountain riot, and since then the Luo family has regarded the Qi family as their savior. Qi Mu's father was just an ordinary inspection officer at the time, so he was promoted to the leader by Luo Xiaoye's grandfather. After his death, his eldest son inherited the military position, and the relationship between the Qi family and the Luo family became closer.

However, time has changed, decades have passed, Luo Xiaoye's grandfather has passed away, Luo Xiaoye's father also died young, and Luo Xiaoye inherited the position of inspector when he was fifteen years old. Luo Xiaoye is not much older, but Qi Mu, who should be called uncle in terms of seniority, has also made his debut.

Relying on the convenience of his brother in the inspection department and the Qi family being the great benefactor of the Luo family, Qi Mu made a living by himself, gathered a group of porters, and with the support of the inspection department, started the post road transportation business. In order to monopolize the post road passing through Huxian County, he tried his best to annex or squeeze other merchants operating post road transportation, or simply "beheaded".

With his hands full of blood, Qi Mu finally monopolized this golden business route, which also established his supreme position in Hu County. The Luo family was originally the boss of the Qi family, but later became family friends, and now Qi Mu is coming from behind and completely suppressing the Luo family.

Qi Mu has always regarded himself as the benefactor of the Luo family. Luo Xiaoye was only sixteen years old when he was an inspector, and Qi Mu made friends with many heroes from three mountains and five mountains when he was fighting for the Golden Post Road. Luo Xiaoye was overwhelmed, and he was bossing Luo Xiaoye all the time, as if he was directing one of his subordinates. This is also the reason why Aunt Ye called her son implicitly that day. Aunt Ye is not ignorant of her son's situation.

Luo Xiaoye's face turned red and white after being reprimanded by Qi Mu, and explained embarrassingly: "It is the responsibility of the inspection department to arrest the robbers, but Hua Yunfei may have fled away immediately if he succeeded in one blow." , my nephew is really..."

Qi Mu interrupted him impatiently: "Okay, okay, you don't need to say any more, in short, you must go all out, no matter what, you must find out his whereabouts for me. You go, I still have something to do To deal with!"

Luo Xiaoye swallowed her saliva, forcibly swallowed the feeling of shame, and said in a low voice: "Yes! Then... Uncle Shi, my nephew will leave now."

Qi Mu didn't see him off, but just waved his hands like chasing flies. He was used to treating Luo Xiaoye with this attitude. After Luo Xiaoye left, Qi Mu let out a long breath, patted his forehead and thought for a moment, Instructed the housekeeper, "Prepare a generous gift, I'm going to see Master Wang."

The housekeeper was a confidant who followed Qi Mu to fight and kill, and crawled out of a small postman with bloody footprints step by step. Hearing this made him feel very uncomfortable, and couldn't help but said: "Master, our Qi family still needs to go to the gourd. A gift from the county government? They..."

Qi Mu said gloomyly: "This time, that time! That damned crazy Dianshi, I want to kill him like crushing an ant, but I can't really kill him after all, unless I want to rebel. This This guy is a member of the officialdom, and he does not have any rules for the officialdom, which makes me a little at a loss. Hehe, beat the old master to death with random punches...

Bear with me for a while, we still need someone official, Meng Qingwei can't be lost, Hua Qingfeng has made it clear now that he wants to stay out of the matter, just relying on Qi's pressure on him, I'm afraid he won't be able to force him to release Meng Qing. Qing Wei. Besides, I doubt that even if he is willing to let go, that lunatic Dianshi will agree.

Right now, we can only force Crazy Ai to release him if we join hands with Master Wang to put pressure on him. As long as Meng Qingwei is released, then I will try my best to help Meng Qingwei and put Ai Dianshi to death! Officials fight against officials, we are the safest. Now I need to endure, so I will endure. Didn't we become the winners on this road because we were able to endure? One Hundred Bears Becomes a Buddha! "

Hearing what he said, the butler had no choice but to nod his head and said, "Okay! Then I'll prepare now."

Just as the butler walked out of the hall, a servant ran in, panting and said: "Master, the big thing is not good, the arrests quickly arrested our brothers, saying that they colluded with Xu Lin and others, is it true?" They beat the county magistrate's sap."

When Qi Mu heard it, he couldn't bear it anymore, and said furiously: "That lunatic is so aggressive! Is it tolerable or unbearable? Call people, I will go to the county government to ask for someone!"

The butler ran back after hearing the news, persuading him, "Master, you just said that you have to be patient, you have to be patient, and you will become a Buddha if you bear it all!"

Qi Mu said furiously: "Buddhas can't allow people to ride on their heads and shit and pee. If I can bear this tone any longer, I won't have to hang out in Hu County anymore. Call me manpower!" Backed away in a panic.

Outside the gate of the Qi mansion, Yang Sanshou looked up at the Qi mansion, and said to Xing Erzhu: "Looking at it, it looks quite impressive, it seems that Qi Mu is indeed a person here. But, it is worse than our mansion Some, less flavor."

Xing Erzhu swallowed the last mouthful of buns, and said vaguely: "That is, our family is an official family, and the master is a high-ranking official in Beijing. How can this surname compare?"

There has been a lot of trouble recently, and the guards in front of the Qi Mansion are heavily guarded. The three of them stood there commenting, and immediately attracted the attention of the guards in front of the door. Immediately, four warriors approached with swords, and asked vigilantly, "What are you doing?"

Yang Sanshou hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "Ah! Please tell the strong man, just say the Yang family in Jingzhou..."

As soon as he said this, a large group of bodyguards came out of the door aggressively, surrounded by Qi Mu, and the warriors guarding the gate all bowed their hands and saluted: "Master!"

Hua Yunfei, who had waited patiently for seven or eight hours in the pile of firewood on the gable wall of a house diagonally across the road, immediately took off his hunting bow, nocked the arrow and fired steadily. Steadily aimed at Saiki's throat.

Hearing the sound, Yang Sanshou raised his head and looked up, vaguely remembering the appearance of that person, he was undoubtedly Qi Mu, he couldn't help being overjoyed, he hurried forward two steps, saluted with a long bow, and said loudly: "Yang Sanshou, the steward of the Yang family in Jingzhou, see Uncle Qi!"

"Um?"

When Qi Mu heard the sound and turned his head to look at Yang Sanshou, a sharp arrow shot out from the pile of firewood...
