"Who are you? Why do you want to arrest me? It's so unreasonable for you to kidnap people! Do you still have the law in your eyes~?"
As soon as Li Junxian and others approached the woodshed, they heard the roaring and roaring voice of a powerful man inside. They only heard the man continue: "Don't you just want money? Let me go, and I will take you there." Take the money! Let me tell you, there are some people in this world that you cannot afford to offend. If our second master knows that I have been kidnapped by you, all of you here will die! And the death will be ugly. It will be too late to regret it by then. Already…”
"Oh~? I heard that someone wanted to make Ben's death look ugly?"
At this moment, Li Junxian pushed the door directly in, interrupted the man's shouting, and said.
In the woodshed, a middle-aged man with his hands and feet tied was sitting on the ground. This man was very handsome, with wrinkles all over his face. His eyes were very small, with typical squinty eyes. From a distance, , just like a Maitreya Buddha.
In front of this middle-aged man, there were two well-dressed men standing with their backs to him. What was funny was that even though this guy had been shouting before, the two well-dressed men ignored him at all!
I don't know if this woodshed has not been taken care of for a long time or for some other reason. Li Junxian always felt that there was a strange smell in this house, but at the moment it was more important to interrogate Sun Dafu, so he didn't care about it.
Seeing Li Junxian come in, the two of them were about to step forward and salute, but the middle-aged man's mouth was faster than their movements: "Bah~! What kind of gangsters are they who rely on kidnapping and extortion?" General~?”
I came to Taiyuan for this trip. Li Junxian and the hundred cavalry he brought were mainly to protect Li Tai secretly, so they usually wore ordinary clothes and did not wear armor. Therefore, when the middle-aged man heard Li Junxian calling himself Only when I was a general would I say something sarcastic.
"Presumptuous! If you blind your dog eyes, the person standing in front of you is..."
Seeing the middle-aged man speaking rudely to Li Junxian, one of the well-dressed men in the room glared at him angrily, and then started to take action.
However, Li Junxian held him back, "Lin Jiang, stop!"
Li Junxian waved his hand and said: "Ignorance is not guilty. This person is Sun Dafu, the shopkeeper of Tongfu Inn, right~?"
Lin Jiang cupped his fists and said, "Yes, General!"
Li Junxian nodded, and then asked curiously: "How did you kidnap him? Why would he think that we are gangsters who kidnap people for blackmail?"
Lin Jiang pursed his lips and replied seriously: "Back to the general, I sneaked into the inn when it was dark. I happened to meet this guy going to the latrine. His subordinates followed him and knocked him unconscious when he was not prepared. Just stuff it into a sack and carry it back!"
Li Junxian was speechless, thinking that no wonder Sun Dafu regarded you as a gangster who kidnapped and extorted money. Your methods are exactly the same as those of a gangster!
"You... do you have the nerve to say that? I always pay attention to being friendly and making money. I have never sinned against you. You, a young man, carried out sneak attacks from behind, and you also sneaked up on me, an old man who doesn't know martial arts. You... you don't have martial ethics!"
Lin Jiang's serious explanation made Sun Dafu completely angry. However, his words made people feel a little unconfident, and as he spoke, Sun Dafu clamped his legs and moved his body as far as possible. The opposite side of where Li Junxian was standing was tilted, as if there was something he didn't want Li Junxian to see.
Li Junxian naturally noticed these little actions of Sun Dafu. He looked a little curious and turned to look at Lin Jiang. Lin Jiang said innocently:
"General, he hadn't finished peeing before his subordinates knocked him out, so after he was knocked unconscious, he peed his pants directly... "
Li Junxian's mouth twitched and he was speechless.
Although, it is true that he ordered Lin Jiang to kidnap Sun Dafu, but Lin Jiang's method is really... a bit ungrateful. You say you can sneak attack from behind, but at least you have to wait for him to finish urinating. Knock him out again!
Sun Dafu's face turned red and he wanted to find a crack in the ground and crawl directly into it. Of course, before digging into the crack in the ground, he had to pull down Lin Jiang, a guy who didn't have martial ethics!
"Okay! My subordinates are just following orders. Shopkeeper Sun, don't get angry with him. Besides, who hasn't peed their pants in this life? No one will laugh at you~! "
Li Junxian saw Sun Dafu's embarrassed look and quickly said "come to the rescue".
Lin Jiang and another sergeant almost laughed out loud when they heard this, but when they saw that Li Junxian did not laugh, they had to suppress their laughter. Sun Dafu looked at Li Junxian with resentment. If looks could kill, Li Junxian would have died so many times now!
However, through previous observations, he found that Li Junxian and the other two people in the room did indeed behave like soldiers, so even though he was angry at the moment, Sun Dafu still maintained a certain degree of restraint.
"Shopkeeper Sun, I invited you here today not because I want your money, but because I want to ask you something~!"
After some joking, Li Junxian straightened his expression and said to Sun Dafu.
"Please? Is this how you invite people?"
Sun Dafu glanced at the ropes tied to his body and sneered: "Also, I have not committed any crime, nor have I violated any law or discipline. You claim to be a member of the military, how can you use this method to know and break the law?" Planting dirty tricks to imprison me~? Do you still have national laws in your eyes~?"
When you can't beat the opponent with your fists, you have to reason with him. Sun Dafu still understands this very well, and now he has to reason with Li Junxian.
But Li Junxian didn't really want to reason with Sun Dafu, because he had big fists, and more importantly, he did violate the law in this matter, and he was in the wrong!
"Shopkeeper Sun, stop talking about these useless things. If you really commit adultery and violate discipline, the person who arrests you will not be the general, but the government servants! Since the general has asked someone to tie you up, Here, if you can’t answer my questions truthfully, I can’t guarantee that you can get out of here alive!”
When Sun Dafu heard this, his face suddenly turned pale. He didn't expect Li Junxian to speak so directly and so harshly. He didn't know if Li Junxian really dared to kill him, but he didn't dare to gamble. After all, everyone He only has one life, and he cherishes it!
"I'm just an innkeeper, what can I know? If you want to ask, just ask!"
Sun Dafu was silent for a moment and then spoke.
At this time, Lin Jiang moved a bench, and Li Junxian sat down in front of Sun Dafu. He put his arms on his knees, leaned over and asked, "The second master you mentioned earlier should be Tongfu." Gao Yong, the owner behind the inn, right? Gao Yong ranks second in the Gao family. He has an older brother named Gao Xu and a younger sister named Gao Ping, who is now the concubine of Wang Hong, the second wife of the Wang family! After joining the high branch of the Wang family, Gao Yong has been able to prosper in Taiyuan City in these years!"
Sun Dafu's pupils shrank and his eyes were horrified. He looked at Li Junxian intently and asked word for word: "Are you investigating the second master? Who are you? Who are you?"
Li Junxian said dissatisfied: "My time is limited, you'd better not waste your time. You can answer whatever I ask, otherwise..."
Speaking of this, Li Junxian looked at Lin Jiang. The latter understood, took out the sword from his waist, put it directly on Sun Dafu's neck, smiled evilly, and said: "Hey! Shopkeeper Sun, I have recently practiced a sword technique. , you can pick out the bones of a person's limbs without letting the person die, do you want to try it?"
How could Sun Dafu, who was usually so pampered and well-off, endure such a fright? He shook his head quickly and said: "I said! I said! Take the knife away!"
"Hmph! You know what's going on!"
Lin Jiang snorted coldly, and then drew the knife back.
Sun Dafu nodded to Li Junxian and said, "What you just said is right. The second master is indeed the owner of Tongfu Inn. In recent years, relying on his relationship with the Wang family, the second master's business has been getting better and better, and the shop has also improved. Open more and more!”
Li Junxian nodded with satisfaction and asked: "Very good! I will ask you again, did Wang Renyi, now Wang Xinyuan, go to your inn this morning?"
Sun Dafu was stunned when he heard this, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. After he came to his senses, he quickly shook his head and said: "Wang Xinyuan? I have never seen him before!"
Li Junxian sat up straight and looked at Sun Dafu with a smile and meaning. Sun Dafu was a little numb at the sight, and when he turned around, he saw Lin Jiang looking at him with a sinister smile on his face. He was so frightened that he quickly changed his words:
"Yes, Prince Wang did come to the inn this morning!"
Li Junxian leaned down and continued to ask: "Who did he meet at the inn?"
Sun Dafu shook his head without thinking about it and said, "I don't know this!"
Afraid that Li Junxian and Lin Jiang wouldn't believe it, he hurriedly explained: "I really don't know the identity of that person. I only heard that he is a good friend of the prince. He just stayed at the inn yesterday, and the second master once confessed that that person She is his distinguished guest with a distinguished status. She is just staying in the inn for two days and asks me to take care of her carefully.
The distinguished guest rarely goes out and almost always stays in the room. When he checked in, he specifically asked not to let outsiders disturb him, so I still don’t know what to call him! "
Li Junxian's eyes flashed, he pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Is that person still living in the inn?"
Sun Dafu nodded and said: "Here! Still there! That distinguished guest lives in the Tianzihao guest room!"
Li Junxian felt a little calmer, he stood up and said to Sun Dafu: "Shopkeeper Sun Dafu will have to stay here all night tonight. When the general's affairs are finished tomorrow, I will let you go back. Don't think about escaping." , here, you can’t run away even if you have wings, and once you are caught, I can’t guarantee what the brothers in the yard will do to you!”
Hearing this, Sun Dafu's old face suddenly turned into a wilted bitter gourd, but the situation was stronger than others, what else could he do if he didn't bow his head
Leaving the woodshed and coming to the courtyard, Li Junxian whispered to himself: "Sure enough, the most dangerous place is the safest place. As soon as Zhu Xiesheng, who lived in the Tianzihao guest room, was caught, someone moved in. , the other party is really a very talented person and very bold!"
"Zhao Kang~!"
After finishing his emotion, Li Junxian shouted into the courtyard. Soon, a sergeant ran towards this side, "The general is here!"
"Go to the Governor's Mansion immediately and ask Governor Wang to lead his troops to Tongfu Inn!"
Li Junxian ordered.
"yes!"
Zhao Kang clasped his fists and accepted the order and left.
Li Junxian said again: "Lin Jiang!"
Lin Jiang, standing next to Li Junxian, cupped his fists and said, "The general is here!"
Li Junxian said: "Leave two people to guard Sun Dafu, and the rest will immediately go with me to Tongfu Inn to get him!"
"Yes~!"
Lin Jiang clasped his fists to accept the order, and then went down to deliver the order.
Li Junxian whispered thoughtfully: "It's finally time to close the net. I hope it's a big fish and not a small fry..."
