Chapter 24 Stealing the beam and changing the column
Liu Huzi shook his head and said solemnly:
"That man uses a javelin, it's very powerful!"
"The senior boy is originally mediocre in talent and indolent. He can hide and dodge whenever he can during training, but he can't survive three rounds under that thief. Now I can only collect his body in the past."
Fang Linyan showed just the right amount of fear and panic and said:
"Then...what should we do?"
Liu Huzi said coldly:
"What are you afraid of! The two accomplices of that thief were killed by the secret transmission I gave out of the master! He also died as soon as he came."
Fang Linyan swallowed his saliva and said:
"That's good."
At this time, Liu Huzi suddenly said:
"By the way, Xiaoqi, come here."
Fang Linyan said in astonishment:
"Ah? Okay."
But when he saw Liu Huzi return the half of the silver from before, he whispered to him:
"You have nothing to do now, so just run an errand for me. Luo Yong from our escort agency took Zhou Zhuo to Wang Laocai's house in the neighboring county to collect debts. He said he would not come back until tomorrow."
"You go to them now, tell them about the escort agency, and then give this token to Luo Yong, and ask him to go to Taiyang Mansion to find the owner of Wanshun Silk and Satin Store, and tell them that something happened on the 27th of that year."
When Fang Linyan heard the word "Zhou Zhuo", his heart immediately moved, he swallowed a mouthful of saliva, made a look of fear and greed, and finally gritted his teeth and said:
"Okay! I'll go right away."
After saying that, he took the token from Liu Huzi's hand and turned around to leave.
But as soon as he turned around, Liu Huzi called him back and asked him repeatedly about the message he wanted to bring. After confirming that he had written it down, he let him go.
Then Liu Huzi ordered his wife to close the door of the escort agency.
After Fang Linyan left the escort agency, he took out the token and looked at it, and found that it was actually a wooden sign.
This wooden sign is about the size of a palm, with strange patterns on it that look like the lines of a sword.
There is a blank word written on the front, a blank word written on the back, and two small words Shanzhuang in the small corner next to it.
Fang Linyan had previously parked the mechanical gyrfalcon on the eaves of the wing next to the escort office, and was about to summon it back to explore the way ahead.
But he didn't expect that from the perspective of the mechanical gyrfalcon, as soon as Liu Beard's wife closed the door, Liu Beard's face immediately changed drastically, and he spat out a large mouthful of blood with a pop!
Then he turned pale and collapsed on the ground, clutching his chest. The blood was mixed with many purple-black blood clots.
When his wife saw this, she immediately screamed and ran over crying. Liu Huzi grabbed her hand and gasped:
"Don't, don't cry, don't let the news leak."
Then he continued:
"Help me in."
His wife was fat and had no problem holding up Liu Huzi, and she led the man into the side room crying.
Fang Linyan immediately controlled the mechanical gyrfalcon and flew directly to the roof of the wing. He easily pulled away the bitter grass on it with his claws. He immediately heard the intermittent voice of Liu Huzi inside:
"This gang of thieves is so powerful. I have never encountered such enemies when I was a escort."
"After thinking about it, it should be the trouble I caused during my experience at Void Villa!"
While Liu Huzi was talking, his wife kept wailing. Hearing this, Liu Huzi was upset and could not help but curse:
"Cry, cry, cry, you know how to cry! Listen to me and speak carefully."
"Now I have used the last bamboo ax that the boss gave me. When the enemy comes back, I will die!"
"I have now arranged for Fang Xiaoqi to be the scapegoat for delivering the message. He will probably attract the enemy's attention."
"Time is precious. You go to your mother's brother now and ask him to go to the neighboring county to find Xie Laoer immediately with such a thing. He has always wanted his son to become a famous teacher, so he will definitely do it after getting this token.
Will come to help."
Upon hearing this, Fang Linyan's lips immediately revealed a sneer.
Although I am pressed for time, I can still find some time.
Liu Huzi naively thought that he was still the same boy as before, but he must have never imagined that Fang Xiaoqi had turned into an oriole.
Half an hour later, Fang Linyan had found Liu Huzi's brother-in-law. This guy seemed to be very honest and honest. He hurriedly set off after hearing Liu Huzi's wife's explanation.
After Fang Linyan followed him for two miles, he simply knocked him out from behind.
After carefully searching his body, a wooden box was found on his body with a seal on it. When he opened it, he found an iron plate inside.
It is said that this iron sign is exactly the same as the wooden sign Liu Huzi gave him. There is a blank word on the front and a blank word on the back.
Fang Linyan originally thought that the wooden sign was quite beautifully carved, but when compared with the pattern on the iron sign, it was obvious that it was an out-and-out knockoff.
Therefore, it is not difficult to deduce that the wooden sign should have been carved by Liu Huzi when he was free, and he was prepared to use it to trick people in case of trouble.
After Fang Linyan pondered for a while, a smile appeared on his lips.
They untied Liu Huzi's brother-in-law's clothes, searched for his money, and even took away his newly made coat, creating a scene of robbers robbing him.
Then he trampled the wooden box containing the iron sign and threw it in front of him, stuffed the wooden sign into the box, and walked away.
As a result, when Liu Huzi's brother-in-law woke up, he found that his coat and money had been taken away, and the wooden box that his sister wanted to give him had been trampled and thrown in front of him.
Obviously, it was natural to think that he had been robbed by someone.
But he had never seen what was inside the wooden box before. When he saw the exquisite wooden sign inside, he did not expect that this thing had been dropped.
So while sighing secretly about his misfortune, he also knew that the matter at his brother-in-law's house was very critical and could not be delayed, so he continued on his way.
Fang Linyan smiled slightly when he saw this. Knowing that the other party had taken the bait, he went straight to his own business.
***
While on the way, Fang Linyan was thinking about whether to open the two keys he had received.
But after thinking about it for a while, he still held back.
The reason is very simple, now he only has a little blood value,
And in this cruel world, Fang Linyan unfortunately became the target of the golden branch's preliminary mission...
That means that even if he doesn't cause trouble for others, others will definitely come for him.
This also means that the blood value will definitely be indispensable in the future.
Now Fang Linyan is still in a state of not lacking anything, so of course he should save these two keys until the blood value is high before opening them.
He hurriedly drove slowly for about two hours, and then he saw a big river flowing in front of him.
The river turns a bend here, so although the river surface seems wider, the water flow seems quite slow, so people ferry here all year round.
Because there is an old pine tree that has lived for an unknown number of years next to the ferry here, so it is called Dasong Ferry.
A round trip by ferry takes almost half an hour. During busy times, there are often many people waiting for the ferry at the ferry port.
So someone took a fancy to the business opportunities here and opened a tea stall here.
In addition to large bowls of herbal tea, the items sold also include boiled eggs, pancakes and other easy-to-carry foods, which can be considered a way to make some spare money.
According to the elder, Luo Yong, the bodyguard of the escort agency, and Zhou Zhuo, the target he is looking for, should have passed by here early in the morning and drank a bowl of herbal tea made by his unmarried aunt.
Then he went to Wang Laocai's house in a neighboring county to collect debts, and after returning, he came here to help his unmarried aunt open her stall.
So Fang Linyan walked towards the tea stall at this time and found that the stall owner was a young girl with freckles on her face, so he dropped a copper plate and said:
"I want a bowl of herbal tea."
The girl immediately brought up a bowl of herbal tea, and Fang Linyan said:
"Hey, sister, I want to ask something. I passed by the Tianyang County Bodyguard Bureau today. The head of the bodyguard, Liu Huzi, heard that I was going to a neighboring county for business, so he asked me to drop by and bring a message to my brother Luo Yongluo, who left early."
"I have long heard from Brother Luo that his mother-in-law sells herbal tea in Dasongdu, is that you?"
After hearing Fang Linyan's words, the girl's face immediately turned red, but she still said openly:
"Yes, Luo Yong is our man, but we are just engaged, not married yet."
Then he returned the copper coin conveniently:
"You are his friend, so drinking a bowl of herbal tea isn't worth it. You can't charge for it."
Fang Linyan smiled and refused:
"That won't work. Sister, you are relying on this to support your family. By the way, I still have things to do here. I am afraid that I will go to the neighboring county and have no time to look for Brother Luo."
"I just wanted to ask if Brother Luo said this morning when he would be back? I'm thinking that after finishing my errands in the afternoon, I'll come to the tea stall to wait for him."
After hearing what Fang Linyan said, the girl said in surprise:
"I haven't seen Luo Yong for several days. I didn't see him this morning."
Fang Linyan was suddenly shocked and said:
"Ah? Did you miss it?"
The girl said with certainty:
"No, my mother will come here at dawn to set up her stall. It takes two hours to get here from Tianyang County by horseback. You won't miss it."
After hearing what the girl said, Fang Linyan immediately frowned deeply, nodded and said:
"Ah? How could this happen?"
Obviously, someone must have had a problem in this unexpected incident.
The first thing Fang Linyan suspected was the freckled-faced girl in front of him, because Fang Linyan had heard about Luo Yong and Zhou Zhuo going to neighboring counties from their mouths.
One is a senior and the other is Liu Huzi.
The possibility of two people joining forces to lie is slim.
However, there is another possibility.
After Luo Yong and Zhou Zhuo left home early in the morning, they encountered an accident on the road from Tianyang County to Dasongdu.
And just as Fang Linyan's mind was spinning rapidly and thinking hard, a reminder suddenly popped up on his retina:
"Warning: Trialist No. ZB419, currently there are only forty-two members of the Fang clan left living by the water in Tianyang County!"
"The survivors already account for less than ten percent of the total population of the Fang clan!"
