Jiayou's Fun

Chapter 18 Liu Wu

at dusk.

To the west of Haojing Imperial City, there are Yipinfang City Fengdiaofang and Jiangtanzi Street.

This is the most lively street in Fengdiaofang. During the first month of the year, it is still bustling with people coming and going.

Walking on the street, Lu Qian couldn't help but take a deep breath while listening to the introduction of Ding Laohe, the veteran five-star supervisor in charge of taking care of him.

Liu Wu, male, 25 years old, is the young owner of Liujiazhuang in Jingufang.

Jingufang, Qipinfang City in Haojing, is 350 miles long and wide. It has more than 4 million acres of high-quality fertile land, of which Liujiazhuang occupies 10%. The Liu family earns a lot of money every year from selling grain, raising silkworms and reeling silk. , the family is considered wealthy.

Liu Wu's father had a son in his old age. Liu Wu had seven sisters, all of whom were married to gentry and wealthy businessmen in Jingufang and nearby cities. Liu Wu had been doted on by his father, mother, and seven sisters and brother-in-law since he was a child, and he raised his son. A stinking problem.

He was fond of women and was also naughty and cruel. Over the past few years, the Liu family reported to the Fangling Yamen that there were forty-three maids who had died of a sudden illness!

Forty-three people? Jin Gufang doesn't care?

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lu Qian gave himself a gentle slap in the face.

Tube?

How to manage?

Those maids must be 'slaves' who signed a death contract. They are the private property of the Liu family.

These 'slaves' were so despicable that in Dayin's laws, they were not even regarded as human beings, but were equal to the cattle and sheep raised by the Liu family.

What's the point of killing a few of your own animals?

How could Jingufang Ling bother the Liu family, which owned hundreds of thousands of acres of land and had a lot of connections with in-laws, just for the death of a few 'lowly people'?

Old He, who had dark skin and a simple and honest appearance, looked like a 'dutiful old farmer', laughed a few times and pointed towards Lu Yi: Just understand, those maids were clearly molested and abused. But according to the national law, Liu Wu is indeed not a good person, but according to the law, he is not guilty!

There was silence.

Then, why are we looking for him? Lu Qian asked Lao He in confusion.

In the eighteenth year of Jiayou's reign, that is, on the eighteenth day of the twelfth lunar month last year, the Liu family suddenly died of a maid, Green Bird, due to illness. Lao He walked forward quickly while looking around the street vigilantly: That night , the green bird was buried.

Then on the twentieth day of the twelfth lunar month, He Jun, the commander of Min'anfang Qionghua Pavilion and Anlefang, was attacked.

Lao He said in a deep voice: The dignified Fourth-Rank Order was almost killed on the spot, and his injuries were extremely... strange.

There are witnesses from Qionghua Pavilion who saw the appearance of the assailant who attacked He Jun.

Based on what they said, we drew a portrait of the murderer.

It's a coincidence that the Palace Supervisor has spies in Ren Ya Xing, and one of them was the one who sold the 'Green Bird' to the Liu family in late November last year. Because 'Green Bird' has an outstanding appearance, and it's also He is somewhat literate in writing, has a lot of money, and not long ago, so he was deeply impressed by Lu Que, and recognized that the murderer in the portrait was Lu Que.

Lu Qian felt chills in his heart, and the hairs on his neck stood up.

Brother He, are you saying that a maid who has been dead for two days went to Qionghua Pavilion and attacked Ling Hejun of Anlefang?

Lao He's voice was a little astringent.

A team of brothers was assigned to dig up Lu Qing's grave. In the coffin, there was only a set of shrouds and a pool of blood.

I heard from the brothers at the scene that it was so cold in the winter that when the coffin was opened, the blood was dripping with water, but it didn't freeze at all.

Lu Qian felt that his teeth were a little cold, and the hairs all over his body were exploding.

Lao He continued: A six-star captain led a team to investigate and found that everyone in the Liu family except Liu Wu was nowhere to be found. The old village owner, his wife, and all the servants were all dead.

Lu Qian was shocked.

Lao He shook his head and glanced at the few men leaning against the wall and squatting at the foot of the wall chatting.

According to the villagers of Liujiazhuang, in the early morning of the second day after Luqing was buried, that is, the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, they heard screams and screams coming from the Liujiazhuang courtyard. Someone saw Liu Wu belt through the crack in the door. With two guards, he escaped from Jingufang overnight.

At noon the next day, those villagers got up the courage to go to the Liu family compound to check, only to find that the Liu family was full of dead people. They were all shriveled up, like mummies that had been exposed to the sun for several months.

Lao He took Lu Qian and walked towards the idle men, muttering to himself.

What's annoying is that they didn't report it to the official in time.

Liu Wu ran away. The elders of the Liu family made the decision. They avoided the Fangling Yamen and went to deliver messages to Liu Wu's seven sisters and brother-in-law. When those idiots arrived at Liujiazhuang and were busy fighting for the family property, we guard the palace. Already at the door.

No, Liu Wu's sister, brother-in-law, and the elders of the Liu family are still locked up in the secret prison.

Hey, they don't know where Liu Wu is, but the captains and generals above don't believe it... They were beaten hard day after day, tsk tsk, that bloody thing is flying everywhere!

In my opinion, the adults above are determined to beat them all to death.

Liujiazhuang has hundreds of thousands of acres of good land.

And the belongings of those seven brothers-in-law are almost the same as those of the Liu family. Hehe, you understand, right?

Liu Wu, I have to ask him what happened that night. Whether that green bird is a human or a ghost, we have to find out what happened on his head.

The last thing is, Liujiazhuang's land.

Lao He lowered his voice: It is best to start with unowned property. Therefore, Liu Wu must be found. And whichever team of brothers can find Liu Wu will definitely get the credit, and the reward will definitely be given. No less!”

When several idle men saw Lao He and Lu Qian in white robes, they stood up hurriedly, bowed obediently from a distance, and called Master He affectionately over and over again.

Lao He pointed at a few idle men and said coldly: These are people from the Sanhu Gang. Thousands of shops on Jiangtanzi Street all have to pay their share of the money every month. Of course, 60% of them are Brother Guilu. We have to pay half of what this team has to us.

Lu Qian looked at the idle men and said nothing.

These idle men were just born with strong martial abilities and learned some rudimentary boxing and kicking skills, so they were dangling on the threshold of the Peiyuan realm.

They bully kind people, so they should all be good hands.

But in front of a violent institution like the Palace Guard, they are just a group of docile little sheep.

Not to mention Lu Tianxing, Lao He, who was responsible for taking care of Lu Qian, also had the seventh-level cultivation of pulse extension, and could easily crush these idle men to death with one hand.

While Lao He was talking, several idle men bowed and stood there respectfully, as if they were filial sons and grandsons meeting their own grandfather.

Lao He introduced Lu Qian in a low voice. His simple and honest appearance suddenly became ferocious and ferocious, and he slapped the idlers in the face with a flick of his hand.

A dozen hard slaps in the face made all the idlers dizzy. Two people had blood spurting out of their noses, but they stood there without daring to move, letting the blood drip and turn red. Clothes.

A small area of ​​the nearby street immediately cleared up, and many pedestrians looked this way with curiosity and fear.

Is there any news? Any useful news! Old He growled in a low and fierce voice: Let me tell you, Brother Lu has been very angry these days. He is very angry. We brothers, Even more angry!

To put it bluntly, when we get angry, we don't know what we will do!

Do you want to spend a few days in the secret prison of the palace guard?

Several idle men turned pale with fright. One of the tallest idle men trembled and begged for mercy: Master He, Master He, we, the Three Tiger Gang, have hundreds of brothers up and down. We have been working non-stop these two days. Busy at work.

I guarantee it with my life, I guarantee it with my little head. There are 1,572 shops and 5,697 households on Jiangtanzi Street. There is not a single outsider or a single person waiting for me.

The man who was stabbed on the street the night before yesterday must have been a passer-by.

Passenger. Lao He slapped Xian Han on the face. The blow was so hard that Xian Han spun around and hit the back of his head heavily against the stone wall behind him.

He pointed at the idle man and said coldly: I know that all of you idiots are the best at being lazy and slippery. You are afraid of offending others, so even if you receive the news, most of you will hide it from us.

In the past, we let it go. After all, there is no shortage of despicable idiots like you on this street.

But this time, it's different.

Brother Lu said, I will give you three more days. If there is no reliable news after three days, your Three Tiger Gang will be done with it. Take my words to your gang leader and get out!

Several idle men knelt down on the ground with a 'gudong' sound, kowtowed to Lao He, got up and ran away.

Lao He coughed heavily.

Several idle men trembled, turned around hurriedly, took out a few small bunches of money from their sleeves, and handed it to Lao He respectfully.

Lao He shook a few strings of coins, and with a swipe of his hand, he put about half of the coins, or more than two hundred coins, into Lu Qian's hand.

Go away, three days, remember. Lao He looked sullenly and glared at the idle men.

A few idle men ran away, faster than a rabbit with an arrow in the butt.

Lu Qian looked at the copper coins in his hand and laughed dryly: Brother He, this?

Lao He naturally stuffed the copper coins in his hands into his sleeves, and returned to his simple and honest look: These ghosts in the land are not loved by their fathers and mothers, and they don't have a decent business. The money in their hands must be It’s not the right way.”

When we use this money to spend money, it can be regarded as taking it from the people, using it for the people, and doing justice to heaven!

Lu Qian was stunned.

‘Take it from the people, use it for the people’, is there such an explanation?

But to be honest, if they still can't receive any useful information after three days, the Three Tigers Gang will really be doomed.

Lao He said with emotion: The night before yesterday, a brother was killed at the Huangjiang Alley entrance of Jiangtanzi Street. The four ghosts under him were also killed, and none of them escaped.

This is already the eighteenth brother who has been killed these days. Brother Lu is feeling heartbroken, and he was stabbed a few times by Huang Papi from the next team. Do you think he can be less angry?

Crossing his arms, Lao He took Lu Qian and continued walking along the street.

That Huang Bapi, he has been jealous of Jiangtanzi Street for more than a day or two. Tsk, you have to be careful when you meet him in the future. His team is the mortal enemy of our team.

Well, these days, so many team brothers are busy working on this case, and no brothers from other teams have had any accidents. However, it is our team that suffered heavy casualties. Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to join our team, right? This is an excuse for Huang Bapi to find fault. Everyone was already very angry, but after being tormented by him like this, Brother Lu is really angry.

Lu Qian followed Lao He and walked along the street for a while, thinking about what Lao He said.

After a long time, after Lao He had taught the third group of idlers a lesson, Lu Qian said in a deep voice: Brother He, I think the brothers in our team will suffer the most. I'm afraid that the brothers will touch them without knowing it. We’re at the door.”

Lao He's eyes suddenly lit up.
