A knife in love

Chapter 1201

Qin Laowu had a dispute with Wei Erbao on the boat, although he had the upper hand and beat Wei Erbao until his eyes were black.However, Xiao Dong took it all in, claiming that the 30 taels of silver deposit that Qin Laowu handed over to Wei Erbao last night would be counted as the cost of his treatment.After Qin Laowu paid the deposit, he originally planned to go back to the ship and ask for the 30 taels of silver he paid from Shopkeeper Hu and others, but looking at Xiao Dong's appearance, there was no way he could ask for the 30 taels of silver back.Qin Laowu thought to himself, the bastard surnamed Wei got 30 taels of silver from him, Xiao Dong asked shopkeeper Hu and others to pool up 200 taels of silver for him, and he gave him a door bag of five taels of silver, He also promised to give him 300 taels after the work was completed.In this way, he lost 30 taels of silver, while Wei Erbao made a net profit of 530 taels of silver.As soon as Qin Laowu thought of this, his heart was so angry that he was so angry that he raised eyebrows at Wei Erbao all the way.At this moment, he finally seized the opportunity, and immediately taunted him.

It's just that Zhang Shi opened his mouth to speak for Wei Erbao, but Qin Laowu couldn't refute Zhang Shi's face, so he had to suppress his anger, hummed, and stopped talking.Zhang Shi turned his head and said to Wei Erbao: "Shopkeeper Wei, my friend likes to joke, don't take it to heart."

Wei Erbao chuckled, and said, "It's okay if you don't get in the way. This brother is outspoken, I really admire it."

The two talked a few more words, and they reached a crossroads.Wei Erbao pointed to a house on the north side of the intersection and said, "That's Wang Yuanwai's mansion, let's go visit it right away. But Wang Yuanwai's family has a great business, and even the concierge in the mansion has a bit of prestige. The three gentlemen Don't talk, let me discuss with the porter."

Zhang Shi and the others had no objection, and the four of them walked across the intersection and arrived in front of the house.I saw that this house is completely different from other houses in the village.Outside the house is a white wall as high as a person, and the top of the wall is covered with black tiles.Black and white are distinct, and it looks quite neat and clean.The door is not too big, about ten feet wide, and the door panel and porch roof are painted black, which looks a bit grim and serious.The black roofs can be faintly seen through the wall, but these houses are not high, so it is not clear what they look like.

Wei Erbao stepped forward and walked straight to the gate.Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and Qin Laowu followed closely behind him.It's just that Qin Laowu looked around while walking, and said to Zhang Shi in a low voice: "It's so fucking strange! Why do I always feel that there are many people around us watching us?"

As soon as he finished speaking, shopkeeper Hu shook his body, glanced at Qin Laowu, and said in a trembling voice: "Old Qin, I also feel as if someone is watching us..."

Zhang Shi didn't speak, but glanced around from the corner of his eye.In fact, after he entered the village, he had a strange feeling, as if someone was following him.But he pretended to be nonchalant several times and turned his head to look behind him, but he didn't see anyone at all.Although there were houses on both sides of the road, it was quiet and no one appeared.When approaching the intersection, Zhang Shi felt that there seemed to be countless pairs of eyes staring at him, Qin Laowu, shopkeeper Hu and others all around him, but he glanced around from the corner of his eyes, but he couldn't see a single figure at all. .The more he walked, the more apprehensive he became. At the end, he felt a chill rushing up from his feet, his legs felt a little weak when he walked, and he just wanted to turn around and escape from the village.He tried his best to suppress the fear in his heart, and then followed Wei Erbao to Wang Yuanwai's house.

It's just that at this time, listening to Qin Laowu talking to Shopkeeper Hu, Zhang Shi's heart shuddered, and he thought to himself, how could there be such a coincidence in the world, how could the three of them feel that someone was staring at them?Thinking of this, he secretly regretted it.If I had known that Wangjiazhuang was so weird, I should have let Zhu Wuji come with me.This person is highly skilled in martial arts, with him by his side, even if there are any weird things in this village, there is no need to worry.

The more Zhang Shi thought about it, the more he regretted it, and he didn't want to talk to Qin Laowu and Hu shopkeeper.Seeing the three of them followed Wei Erbao to the stone steps in front of the gate, Wei Erbao suddenly stopped, turned around, and said in a trembling voice: "It's so fucking strange! Why do I always feel that there are many people around me?" Look at us?!"

As soon as Wei Erbao said this, Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and Qin Laowu were all stunned.Wei Erbao's words were exactly the same as what Qin Laowu said just now, and it was unexpected that two deadly enemies would say the same sentence.Zhang Shi and shopkeeper Hu looked at each other, with terrified expressions on their faces.

Wei Erbao was walking in the front just now, and he didn't hear Zhang Shi and others whispering behind him.At this time, seeing the astonishment on the faces of the three of them, they became more and more flustered.It's just that he was about to speak, but shopkeeper Hu said, "Treasurer Wei, have you ever been here?"

Wei Erbao was stunned for a moment, and then said: "What does Master Hu mean by this? If I have never been here, how would I know Wang Yuanwai?"

Shopkeeper Hu sneered, and said, "But no matter how I look at it, you seem to have never been here before!"

Wei Erbao looked a little embarrassed, scratched his head, and said: "Master Hu was joking, no matter how brave I am, I dare not deceive you..."

Before he could finish his sentence, Zhang Shi suddenly said: "Treasurer Wei, we are like grasshoppers tied to a rope. We will prosper and lose together. If the three of us can't escape, shopkeeper Wei can't escape you either. Yin Zi You can make money at any time, but if you lose your head, everything you have is gone.”

When Zhang Shi said this, he sneered, and then said: "Treasurer Wei, you are a very shrewd person. If you know Wang Yuanwai, why don't you even know his name? And after we entered this village, you all the way Walking around and looking around, showing a surprised expression from time to time, how can this look like someone who has been to Wangjiazhuang? Shopkeeper Wei, you'd better tell the truth."

Wei Erbao's face turned blue and red, and after a while, he coughed twice, smiled awkwardly, and said, "I'll tell you the truth, I have never been in Wang Yuanwai's mansion..."

Before he finished speaking, shopkeeper Hu and Qin Laowu showed angry faces, but Zhang Shi had an expression of "as expected".Qin Laowu said angrily: "Damn it! I said you just want to cheat our money. You don't know the surname Wang, and you're talking nonsense. It doesn't count if you cheated the money, and you tricked the three of us into Here. I will beat you to death!"

After Qin Laowu finished speaking, he immediately rolled up his sleeves and pushed towards Wei Erbao.The redness and swelling on Wei Erbao's face hadn't subsided yet. Seeing Qin Laowu's thick arms and begging bowl-sized fists, he involuntarily took two steps back, and said in a trembling voice, "You, what do you want to do?"

Zhang Shisheng was afraid that the two would have a conflict again, so he hurried forward, stopped between them, and said to Qin Laowu, "Old Qin, don't be angry, talk to shopkeeper Wei properly."

Seeing Zhang Shi coming forward to stop him, Qin Lao Wu had to stop.But he was panting heavily, staring at Wei Erbao viciously.

Zhang Shi turned around and said to Wei Erbao: "Treasurer Wei, as long as you tell the truth, we will never make things difficult for you. If you still hide, some things are beyond my control. Shopkeeper Wei should think twice."

Wei Erbao saw Zhang Shi and Qin Laowu sang together, he knew that if he was still stubborn, he was afraid that Qin Laowu, a barbarian, would become ruthless, and he would be full of old punches in the street, and he would inevitably have old wounds not healed, and new wounds would come again.So he pondered for a while, and then said: "Everyone, I didn't intend to deceive. Wang Yuanwai is a big shot in our Dongliao County, and he refuses to see guests easily. I heard that even the magistrate of the county wants to see him. Easy things..."

Zhang Shi, shopkeeper Hu and Qin Laowu all scolded Wei Erbao's eight generations of ancestors.Seeing the gloomy faces of the three of them, Wei Erbao felt uneasy, so he couldn't help but took two steps back, and then said, "However, a servant from Wang Yuanwai's mansion once came to my shop to order a cabinet, which can be regarded as a kind of friendship. The three of you can rest assured. , as long as I say to look for that servant, the concierge of the palace will never stop us. I can ask that servant to deliver a message to the king, and he will definitely agree to see us..."

Shopkeeper Hu and Qin Laowu were furious and stared at Wei Erbao viciously.Although Zhang Shi was angry in his heart, he finally suppressed the anger in his chest and said with a calm face, "Shopkeeper Wei, we'll leave it up to you. If this matter can't be done, that old man surnamed Xiao will not let you go." .”

Seeing that Zhang Shi didn't make things difficult for him, Wei Erbao finally breathed a sigh of relief.He said repeatedly: "Don't worry! As long as I find that servant, this matter will be counted as eight points. Put your hearts back into your stomachs, and leave the rest to me."
