Xu Shi.
This is equivalent to seven to nine o'clock in the evening.
Hearing movement outside the door, he stomped, footsteps sounded from the courtyard, and he trotted all the way to the door.
Squeak——
The courtyard door opens.
"Master, why are you back so early today?"
The old concierge, holding a dim candlelight lantern in his hand, respectfully stepped aside and allowed the people outside the door to come in.
"Well, I was a little tired tonight, so Capt. Zhao came back first after changing defense."
The person who came in was a big man.
But there is a very strong smell of feminine rouge and fragrant powder on her body.
When the big man entered the door, the old concierge behind him began to close the courtyard door.
I don't know if it was because his vision was dim at night, but the big man didn't notice that the old concierge's expression was abnormal. The old concierge had been sweating on his forehead.
Even the clothes on the back were soaked with sweat.
This place is Zheng Yuanhu’s home.
The big man who just walked in was naturally Zheng Yuanhu, one of the three top arresters in Chang County.
The old concierge who had always closed the door neatly in the past, but today he took his time to close the door slowly and for a long time. His hands were always shaking with fear and nervousness.
The old concierge was so frightened that he couldn't close the door for a long time, but Zheng Yuanhu walked through the yard and reached the lobby first.
Before Zheng Yuanhu reached the lobby, he saw someone sitting in the lobby from a distance.
"Lao Cheng, are there any visitors at home tonight?"
But the old concierge behind him was so nervous that he opened his mouth several times and was still unable to say a word.
After Zheng Yuanhu came closer, he saw clearly who the visitor was tonight. Zheng Yuanhu clasped his fists and said, "It turns out that Feng Captou is here."
Feng Captou sat still and said, "Zheng Captou's face looks a little bad since we last said goodbye. Could it be that he has been focusing on the defense of the temple fair recently, so he hasn't been able to sleep well or eat well?"
Zheng Yuanhu didn't seem to hear the meaning of Feng Baotou's words. He smiled with a smile. Under the illumination of several lanterns in the main hall, this was a rough face with a thick layer of rouge, and the collar The martial arts practitioner's arm guards covered the only exposed skin on his neck and hands.
The face covered by rouge and white powder was nine points less masculine and nine points more feminine.
It seemed that even the temperature in the main hall began to drop.
The lantern swayed, as if it would fall and go out at any moment, the candle flickered and flickered, and the atmosphere became strange.
Under the illumination of the flickering lantern, Zheng Captou smiled softly, like rouge on his face, and fine white powder fell from his face.
But Capt. Feng's face looked normal, as if he didn't see this: "Capt. Zheng, this is not right."
"Captain Zheng is one of the three major arresters in our Chang County. If he suffers from physical problems due to poor rest, it will be our biggest loss in Chang County."
"And the Qingming Temple Fair is coming soon. The defense work will be heavy in the future, and Zheng Captou's help is indispensable."
"I just happened to be bored with waiting, so I asked your concierge to buy me some food and drinks, as well as a bottle of Fenjiu, the fine wine from Xianliu Tower. Come on, Captain Zheng will sit down and have a drink with Feng."
Feng Captou said to Zheng Captou with a worried look on his face, as if he was really worried about his colleague, with a candid look.
There was nothing strange about the expression on Feng Captou's face.
She smelled strongly of rouge and fragrant powder, and was as charming as a woman named Zheng Yuanhu. He stared at Feng Captou for a while, and then sat down in front of the table.
"Captain Feng came to visit at night. I don't know why?"
At this time, Feng Captou smiled and did not answer. Instead, he raised the flask and poured a cup of Fenjiu with turbid yellow liquid for Zheng Yuanhu.
Zheng Yuanhu lowered his head and glanced at the turbid yellow wine in the glass, and suddenly smiled on his rouge and feminine face.
It's a smile that's superficial but not real.
"Feng Baotou, isn't this Fen Bar?"
"Why does it look like Sanyang wine to me?"
Feng Baotou seemed to be completely unaware and said in surprise: "That shouldn't be the case. Mr. Feng is a regular customer of Xianliu Tower. This Xianliu Tower is really disgusting. He actually killed a regular customer. It's so outrageous. I'll take someone there tomorrow." Close his restaurant."
"However, Sanyang wine is also wine. I'll drink it first as a token of respect. I'll give Zheng a first glass of wine."
After Feng Captou finished speaking, he drank the wine in the glass first. After putting down the glass, he saw that Zheng Yuanhu had not touched the drink in front of him, so he asked Zheng Captou why he didn't drink this wine?
Zheng Yuanhu, who has a feminine temperament, did not touch the Sanyang wine in front of him.
"Feng Captou hasn't answered my previous question. Feng Captou came to visit at night. I don't know why?"
"Is Feng Captou the only one coming to visit tonight?"
…
boom!
Under the night, there was an explosion suddenly.
"Dead man! Dead man!"
"Dead man!"
Then, cries and screams started to sound. It was the old man who was the concierge who was so frightened that he stumbled and fled out of Zheng Yuanhu's house in a panic. He screamed and ran away as if he was scared out of his wits.
The scream of the old concierge immediately broke the peaceful night. He fled in panic along the road, and the lights of thousands of houses along the road lit up one after another.
If there is a man at home, the man puts on his clothes and goes out to check what is going on.
There were no men at home and only women were at home. They were so frightened that they locked the doors and windows and dared not sleep all night.
As more and more people were awakened, in the dark and silent night, dogs barked and chickens flew in every house. The people of Chang County had trouble sleeping all night.
The movement here also alerted the Xiangyong who were patrolling the surrounding area, and soon a large number of Xiangyong holding torches gathered around them.
When they arrived at the explosion site and saw the home of one of the three major arrests in Chang County, Chief Zheng, the villagers were shocked.
However!
The one who arrived earlier than them was the Yamen servant.
Those government officials seemed to have known in advance that there would be an explosion at Zheng's house, so they arrived one step ahead.
These government officials blocked Xiang Yong from the door.
These local heroes are not allowed to enter Zheng Yuanhu's house.
At this time, in Zheng Yuanhu's house, Feng Baotou's chest was dripping with blood. He had been stabbed and his blood dripped all over the floor. In the house where Zheng Yuanhu and Feng Baotou were originally alone, the old Taoist priest appeared from nowhere. At this time, he was stopping Feng Baotou's bleeding and bandaging the stab wound on his chest.
"Don't worry, Capt. Feng. This hemostatic medicine is an exclusive secret recipe of me who has traveled all over the country. It is very effective in stopping bleeding. Although Capt. Feng, you were injured by Capt. Zheng, and you look like you are dripping with blood. In fact, you only broke a few ribs. The internal organs were not injured."
"I made a mistake this time, the old Taoist. I should have thought of it a long time ago. Zheng Baotou has been dead for so long, and his body should have rotted long ago. If he wants to keep his body from rotting, he must absorb the yang energy of living people, and He has been lurking in Chang County for so long, but there has been no news of any dead people anywhere! I didn't expect that Mr. Zheng was so cunning and buried so many dead people in his yard. The explosion just now knocked the old man and the little brother to pieces. I was caught off guard and let this evil thing escape!"
Feng Baotou endured the severe pain in his chest, and then he realized that only the old Taoist priest was in the house, and Jin An was not there.
"Daozhang Chen, why is Mr. Jin'an not with you?"
The old Taoist priest said: "Zheng Captou was thrown a pot of Sanyang wine by Feng Captou. He is probably discouraged now and can't run far. My little brother caught up first by himself."
