Hunting for the Southern Song Dynasty

Xia Da and I rode back to the village, we saw a lot of people around the gate of the village from a distance, could it be water pirates coming to make trouble again?

"Xada, why don't you hide first?"

"What are you hiding? I'm not afraid of anything with you here?"

I approached and looked, and it turned out to be Meng Xingjiao, the third young master of the Tang family, and a dozen other men.

Meng Xingjiao rushed towards me with a shovel without any explanation, "I'll kill you!"

I greeted him with a gun, "My dear brother, you have something to say!"

"What are you talking about, where did you hide Jiao'er?"

"Which girl?"

"Don't play tricks on me!"

At this time, the gate of the village was wide open, and I retreated into the village while facing Meng Xingjiao. The third young master of the Tang family stopped and persuaded Meng Xingjiao to stop.

Tang Yan was crying in the village, I supported Tang Yan and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Young Master Tang said: "Niu Xian, some thieves broke into Meng's house last night and took away not only a lot of property, but also the little demon. They said they would let her go to Funiu Mountain to be the wife of the village."

Gong Suran said: "I told you a long time ago, this is killing someone with a borrowed knife!"

I said: "How can I do this? Even if you don't recognize my sworn brother, but Tang Jiao is Tang Yan's younger sister, I won't do it. Maybe the water thief is behind it? "

Meng Xingjiao said: "As long as I get involved with you, it will be bad luck! How can I believe what you say?"

I said: "If you don't believe me, you can search, as long as there is something in your family in Funiu Mountain, then Tang Jiao will be regarded as our robbery, so it will be fine!"

"Search and search! Search for me!"

The people in the suburbs of Mengxing searched inside and out, and we followed behind them.

One of the servants suddenly shouted: "Mr. Meng, here is an embroidered shoe."

We all follow along.

Meng Xingjiao picked up the shoes and cried, "Jiaoer, where are you?"

Then he turned to me bitterly and said: "Now that Jiao'er's shoes are found in your village, what do you have to say?"

Gong Suran said: "There are many ladies in our village, Lan Yan'er alone has several pairs of these shoes, why do you say they belong to your lady?"

Meng Xingjiao raised the shoe and waved it in front of everyone's eyes, "Look at it, take a good look, there is a word Meng on the sole of this shoe, and a word Tang on the sole of the other shoe."

The word Meng was indeed embroidered with red thread on the sole.Tang Yan took a look at it and said, "I embroidered these shoes myself. I was supposed to wear them. My sister married me, so I wore these shoes. I didn't expect..."

"Second sister, come home with us, you can't follow this kind of person!" Tang Sanshao raised his knife again and said to me, "Hurry up and hand over my third sister, otherwise, I will kill you!"

Tang Yan stood in front of me, "I believe Niu Xian, he definitely did not rob my little girl. He went to Wang's house last night and never returned to the village!"

"Who knows if you are in the Wang family?" Zhou Lunjie said.

Xia Da said: "Of course I know, my master drank too much last night, and I waited on him to fall asleep. He didn't leave the house all night. If you don't believe it, just go to Wang's house and ask."

Meng Xingjiao said: "Where can't a person who flies over the roof and walls go? Why ask? Besides, you don't need to do it yourself, just order your subordinates!"

Dong Rong said: "I have already asked the guards, except for my elder brother and Xia Da who lived outside, no one from our village went out last night! Besides, the most important thing my elder brother lacks is a lady, how could he rob you? You are good!" Think about it, it's obvious that someone is framing my elder brother!"

Tang Yan said: "Jiao'er was robbed, I am more anxious than anyone else, I think the people from Shuizhai must be behind the scenes, the three brothers must not act rashly."

Young Master Tang said: "I think this matter is also strange. Let's go back first and find Tang Jiao together. Niu Xian, if you have news, please let us know."

"Definitely! Brothers stay here for dinner. I'll send someone to find out Tang Jiao's whereabouts." I said.

"Farewell! I'll go to the water village to ask! If not, I'll never end with you!" Meng Xingjiao got on his horse and left.

"Gu Feng, hurry up and follow along, lest this guy suffer a big loss!" I quickly gave an order.

"Order!"

I said to the young master again: "Brother, don't worry, I will try my best to find my little sister! You should also persuade me, brother Xingjiao, not to act recklessly, or you will be fooled by a prostitute on the water."

The young master said: "Okay, just keep an eye on my second sister, and don't let her suffer any grievances. Let's hurry up and chase after Xingjiao."

Everyone rode away.

Gu Feng also ordered his men and horses to fly out of Dazhai.

Everyone dispersed, Dong Rong, Gong Suran and I gathered in a small room to discuss matters.

Gong Suran said: "There must be careful work in our village, otherwise what's the matter with this embroidered shoe?"

I said, "Could someone really use my name to rob sex and rob money?"

Dong Rong said: "Impossible. I patrol the village every night, and I have never found anything unusual. However, those who surrendered in the water village should be interrogated one by one. Could it be that they put the embroidered shoes in the village?"

"No, if this incident becomes serious, it will disturb people's hearts. From tomorrow onwards, anyone who leaves the village must have my warrant. The two of us can go to patrol the village at any time."

"it is good!"

I walked out of the hut, trying to find a soldier, and saw one of them leaning against the wall, basking in the sun to catch lice.

"come over!"

He put on his clothes and ran over, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

"What's your name?"

"My name is Niu, Niu Neng, borrowing from King Hong Fu, I, I have the same surname as you."

"What will you do?"

"Yeah, I can't do anything, when, when infantry can't run fast, ride, ride horses, horses don't listen to me, shoot, shoot # cannons, but they can't shoot, shoot, shoot arrows, always break their bows, burn them in the kitchen , lighting a fire, and always being scolded, the dry firewood saw me, but only smoked, stunned, stunned, no fire, everyone didn’t call me Niu Neng, everyone called me Niu Neng!”

"There is nothing impossible in our old Niu's family. I said you can do it if you can. If you go to do something, you will definitely be able to do it well. I can see that you are a capable person!"

"Really, really? Thank you so much, Your Majesty, for being so considerate of people. What's the matter? I'm capable of losing my head, and I'm not afraid of it!"

"You pretend to be an ordinary person and go to Jingui Lake to find a boat with a flag on it, and a big fan written on it. The leader of this boat is Fan Yitong. He is my friend. You secretly ask him if there is a water village. They robbed a lady named Tang Jiao, who belonged to the shopkeeper Meng Da of the Pegasus Hotel. You must be careful about this, and don't let anyone know about it."

"This, this matter is easy to handle. I'll go right away."

"I'll wait for your good news. There will be a big reward for getting this done."

The cow can turn around and go.

After a while, Gu Feng brought people back, saying that Meng Xingjiao had been shouting by the lake for a long time, but no boat came to the shore, so he had no choice but to go back.

It was dark, I just fell asleep with Tang Yan, someone knocked on the door, I opened the door and saw that it was Niu Neng, so I let him into the living room.I took an apple for him to chew on.

"How about it?"

"Fan, Fan Yitong said, I don't know what happened. Well, that Yushuihuan didn't have a new lady. But, little, Xiao Qiao has been sent to Yushuihuan now, but Joe, Master Qiao is nowhere to be found. , Some people said that he was drowned in the lake by whoring on the water, and some people said that Master Qiao escaped, escaped his mother."

"Why does whoring on the water treat Xiao Qiao like this?"

"She said that Xiao Qiao was in the cottage, changed, changed into new clothes, her body is early, and she is already dirty, this kind of stuff should be played with everyone!"

"***!"

"Now, is there a good chance?"

"What chance?"

"Fan Yitong said that Hua Changcai didn't go well when he returned to the water village, and now he is no longer allowed to have sex in Yushui."

"Who is Yushui falling in love with now?"

"That's it, that little girl with white flesh on her waist!"

"Her?"

"I don't think there's anything scary about a woman, why don't we send sailors to rescue all the women on that boat!"

"Don't be in a hurry, if this little lady possesses special skills, shouldn't we suffer a lot? What did you do before?"

"I'm a barber. Later, when the flood washed away my stall, I was hungry. It was Dong Dawang who took pity on me and got me to the mountain."

I took out a bag of silver and handed it to him, "From tomorrow onwards, you will go down the mountain, buy a set of things, and go back to your old business."

"My lord, I don't want to go down the mountain, I still want to follow you!"

"Of course you are still from my cottage. Tomorrow I will ask Lan Yan'er to choose a girl to ration you. You will become a family. When you get rid of the prostitutes on the water, you can come back if you want, it's up to you!"

"Thank you, Great King, if you have a home, there is nothing I can do!"

"Right now, you mainly go to Shuizhai and Beimen's house. As long as there is any movement in these two places, you will report to me."

"no problem."

"You take my warrant and go down the mountain early in the morning. After making arrangements, I will send the girl to you in person."

"Thank you king!"

Niu Neng left, I went back to the bedroom and got into bed, Tang Yan started crying again.

I persuaded: "Okay, okay, don't cry, the little demon will definitely find it, I believe it is in the water village, for sure."

I comforted Tang Yan and touched a lot of tears with each hand. I climbed onto her body and comforted the tearful man in another way.

The next day, I found Lan Yan'er and asked him to find a girl to marry a barber, and to prepare a dowry.

As soon as I left Xifang Garden, Dong Rong hurried over, saying that the soldiers who were buying vegetables had seen a notice posted in the county that besides the Meng family's wife being robbed, Jiuniang from Beimen's family was also robbed last night, and all It's a person pretending to be Funiuzhai.

"It's unreasonable!" I turned my hands behind my back.

Dong Rong said: "The government claims in black and white that our Funiuzhai committed the crime. I think it is very bad. I am worried that officers and soldiers will come to encircle and suppress it. After all, the Beimen family is different from other families. I have sent detectives to investigate."

"Notify the leaders to discuss matters in the Harmony Hall."

After a while, each leader led the two squads to stand, and I sat on the tiger-skin chair, and said: "There are thieves pretending to be my Rong Xianjun and committing crimes repeatedly. They took away my sister Tang Jiao, and they also took Jiuniang from Beimen's family." If the government comes to inquire, I will be able to defend myself, but if they don’t ask indiscriminately, they will come to ask and suppress, and we will live and die with the copycats.”

"I will live and die with the Shanzhai!" Guo Lian shouted in unison.

"Gufeng, you lead 500 troops to ambush in Wuyun Ridge."

"Order."

"Meng Fei, you lead 500 troops to ambush in Chaoyang Ridge."

"Order."

"We use the sound of cannons as our trumpet, and when the cannons sound, we rush out. When the cannons don't sound, we stay hidden."

Meng Fei and Gu Feng went out to order troops and set off.

"Report!" Tan Ma ran in, "Zhang Jun's Tian division brought [-] elite soldiers to fight against our cottage with Guzhi County. It is estimated that the number of troops is now Jiukeshu."

"Tian Shizhong? Does any brother know who this is?"
