Chapter 58 Shameless villain

The sky is like washing jade, and it is as clean as water.

In the north of Qiongzhou City is a large area of ​​low-rise residential buildings. Hundreds of households present a grayish-yellow hue. Even when spring comes, there is no change in color.

On the edge of the entire residential area, a very simple house stands quietly, with a pair of couplets pasted on the door, which reads: "The wealth comes with the spring, and the joy comes with the blessings." The quality of the couplets is not very good. After a few rains It's starting to turn a light orange.

At this time, the sound of children running and laughing, as well as the woman's yelling and cursing came from inside the door.

"Ning Zhiyuan, have you finished your homework?!"

The child was very naughty, maybe he played tricks on the mother a little, and then there was another sound of running, accompanied by the child's screaming, and when it stopped, the woman could be heard chattering.

"If you don't study hard every day, what will you do when you grow up!"

"I want to be a general like my second uncle!...Oh! Don't pull my ears, mother, it hurts!"

The child's voice gradually faded away, and the commotion in the house gradually subsided.

The person leaning against the courtyard wall moved.After thinking for a long time, he sneaked furtively along the base of the wall to the gate, looked around and knocked on the door without a trace.

"Who is it?" The woman answered the door, and the sound of footsteps approached.

The person standing at the door looked back nervously.

With a sound of "squeak", the door was opened, and the person who came was a woman in her twenties, with a kind appearance and blunt face, but the corners of her eyes were slightly sharp, which made her look a little shrewd.

"Uncle?" Seeing the person coming, Kong Yan was stunned.

The visitor was about to walk into the house without saying a word, Kong Yan reacted, she was startled, she quickly poked her head out to look around, then closed the door and locked it.

After completing this series of actions, he quickly walked up to the visitor, stopped him from the door, and asked anxiously.

"Uncle, it's really you! What have you done these days? Do you know that the government is looking for you!"

Only then did the person take off the clothes on his head, revealing a handsome face, it was Ning Zai.

Ning Zai pursed his lips, looking like he didn't know what to say.

Hearing the commotion outside, the child sneaked out to check, just in time to see his longing uncle watching at the door, so he ran over quickly and hugged Ning Zai.

"Second Uncle, I miss you so much!"

Ning Zhiyuan hugged Ning Zai's leg and acted like a baby, no matter what his mother said, he refused to let go.Kong Yan looked at Ning Zai helplessly, and Ning Zai hugged Ning Zhiyuan in embarrassment.

"Second Uncle will play with you later, can you do your homework first?"

"No!" Ning Zhiyuan shook his head, "I finished my homework and you disappeared again!"

"I promise it won't happen this time, do you believe in the second uncle?"

Ning Zhiyuan puffed his chin: "I don't believe it."

"Oh? If you don't believe me, then I won't play with you."

"No!" Ning Zhiyuan immediately regretted, "I believe you, Second Uncle, I believe you!"

Ning Zai smiled, put him down and patted his head, "Then do your homework first.",

Ning Zhiyuan turned his head three times a step, and left reluctantly.

Seeing Ning Zhiyuan leaving, Kong Yan breathed a sigh of relief, then saw Ning Zai in ragged attire, and unconsciously raised her forehead.

The little trouble is gone, and there is another big trouble here.

Fortunately, Big Trouble himself, that is, Ning Zai, is very self-aware and took the initiative to say.

"Sister-in-law, talk here."

The two went to the living room and sat down at a dining table.

"Sister-in-law, what happened in the city during my absence? Why did I come back..."

"I just found out that the government is looking for you, right?"

Ning Zai shuddered, frowned, and nodded solemnly.

"That day when you went to Baibei Mountain to drive out bandits, why did thousands of people lose?"

Ning Zai took a deep breath, not knowing how to answer, but fortunately, Kong Yan didn't insist on asking an answer, and continued.

"After they withdrew, they all went to the county government to ask for an explanation. It turned out that Mr. Xue's information was false, so everyone let it go. But..."

"They found out you didn't come back."

"Your subordinates said that when the battle between the two sides was fierce, you rushed out alone... We all thought you were dead. Master Xue was very sad and planned to give you a proper funeral."

"Who knows that someone came out to expose that you were not dead at the time, and even during the battle, you avoided the battle and took your subordinates to watch from the sidelines. So Mr. Xue interrogated your subordinates and learned that you really refused to help other officers and soldiers , I have identified you as a traitor."

"If it is dead, then it is dead; if it is still alive, it will be executed if caught."

Ning Zai's forehead was bulging with veins. He had known from Gao Qiaokou that Xue Jing was a villain, but he never thought that he would be so shameless.It is clear that he made himself not participate in the battle between the two sides, he only needs to lead the elite to rescue his son!
Ning Zai slammed the table heavily, and said angrily, "Shameless villain!"

Kong Yan looked at him worriedly, and said with concern: "Your elder brother also refused to believe it. He questioned those people face to face, but now he is pushed out by others and sent to Kuding Lane as an errand."

"You're back now, what are you going to do?"

How to do?
Ning Zai thought about it.If he didn't know that the bandit village was going to attack the county, it would be fine, and he would go straight to the dog official and dismantle him face to face, regardless of whether he admits it or not, at worst, he would be killed.But now that he knows Luojiangzhai's plan, how could he follow Gao Qiao's wish to kill Xue Jing and let the city fall.

Ning Zai felt that things were difficult and scratched his head.

Seeing that his face was livid, Kong Yan was obviously very angry, and for a while regretted why she said these things when Ning Zai just came back.

"Forget it, don't think about it, the big deal is to stay at home, brother and sister-in-law will support you forever! You must be having a bad time outside these days, right? Have you eaten, I'll get you some."

Kong Yan said, and went to the kitchen to prepare meals.

Ning Zai was immersed in his own thoughts, and suddenly thought of something.

Ming Rong, Meng Heyin.

Since the two of them also knew about Luojiangzhai's plan, they still wanted to come out at such a time and tell themselves such important news without any scruples.

It can be seen that even if they are not friends, they must not be enemies.What's more, the purpose of their coming to Qiongzhou may also be to stop Luojiangzhai's plan.

In this way, I can find them to cooperate!

Where will they be at this time?Ning Zai began to think about what he had heard on the road.

Ming Rong once said that the place they were going to was...a teahouse.There are so many teahouses in the city, how does he know which one it is.

Ning Zai began to carefully recall the route they passed.

If you want to go through this alley, there are only two directions you can go, and there must be a teahouse in it that must not be too remote...

Suzaku Street!
After Ning Zai figured it out, he set off immediately.

When Kong Yan came back with the hot food, Ning Zai was nowhere to be seen.
