Chapter 35 35 Beheading
Chapter 35 35. Killing
Li Yuan knocked on the door a few times, but did not continue, but waited patiently.
He stepped back a little and took the opportunity to look at the houses in Baiyun Lane in Yinxifang.
There was no sense of luxury, just ordinary houses, black tiles and white walls, a little plain.
The ground was a bumpy mud, and there was no flooring or anything like that.
The lane was not wide, and even a little cramped.
The houses seemed to be a little dense, and after walking two steps to the side, you would reach your neighbor's house.
However, such an ordinary residential area is already a mid-range residential area in Yinxifang.
Like the manager yesterday, he still lived in a wooden shed, which was even more simple than Xiaomofang. The only good thing was that he could walk to the main road of Yinxifang not far away, which was convenient for shopping.
Li Yuan was thinking, when he suddenly heard a slight "creak".
It was the door on the side that opened.
He turned his head slightly, and saw a gorgeous girl with rouge and powder yawning and walking out from the next door.
The girl had "0~1" floating on her side, and she glanced at him arrogantly, then walked away without looking at him again.
This made Li Yuan a little stunned.
Could it be that the girl saw through him at a glance that he was a country bumpkin who didn't belong here?
However, seeing the girl walking out, combined with some scenes he saw outside when he was lying on the railing of Tianxiangfang last night, Li Yuan was sure that the public security here was indeed better than Xiaomofang.
Dressed so beautifully and still walking outside, there were ordinary people wandering on the streets in the middle of the night, and the public security here was already many times better than Xiaomofang.
After a while, someone opened the door of the house where Li Yuan was waiting.
The one who opened the door was a strange woman dressed as a maid, who looked quite pretty.
The maid looked at Li Yuan and asked, "Who are you looking for?"
Li Yuan handed over the breakfast box from Yichan Pavilion and said with a smile, "My name is Li Yuan. I'm here to look for Brother Cai Ze. Please inform him."
The maid glanced at the breakfast box, took it, and said politely, "Wait a moment, the master hasn't gotten up yet."
Li Yuan smiled and said, "No hurry."
After a long time, a young man in a yamen uniform came out. Seeing Li Yuan standing at the door, he smiled and said, "Brother Li, you're here. Come in and sit down."
Li Yuan said, "Yuan knows that Brother Cai has a lot of things to do during the day, so he doesn't dare to bother him too much. I just got the silver and came to present it."
As he said that, he took out two small bags that he had prepared, one bag contained a small silver ingot of 10 taels, and the other bag contained 5 silver beans.
Cai Ze took the two bags, looked at them, and said with satisfaction: "You got it together so quickly?"
Li Yuan said: "Yesterday I went into the forest and fought for life and death. I was lucky and caught a wild boar. I just sold it for some money."
Cai Ze nodded and said: "Brother Li is a capable and well-connected person. Cai will help you with this matter within five days. Five days later, you can come to me to get your residence permit."
"Thank you, Brother Cai!" Li Yuan bowed sincerely, and then said, "If Brother Cai has no instructions, I will not bother you anymore."
After Li Yuan's operation, 30 taels of silver became 7 taels.
He felt distressed, but these were all the money that should be spent.
If this was saved and the matter was not done, it would be too late to regret.
Back to Xiao Mo Fang, Yan Yu looked at her man's red eyes and the smell of alcohol and rouge. She said nothing, silently boiled water, helped him take a bath, and let him go to bed for a while.
Just when Yan Yu was about to wash clothes, his wrist was suddenly grabbed.
Lady Yan turned around.
Li Yuan was holding her hand.
The two looked at each other, and Li Yuan said, "Sister Yan, I didn't sleep with other women."
"Yeah," Lady Yan smiled happily. Although winter had not yet passed, her bright and shining apricot eyes seemed to have given birth to spring.
After a short silence, Lady Yan said coquettishly, "You spend money but don't sleep. How can there be such a stupid man as you?"
After that, the young lady seemed to be really happy. She took the clothes she had changed, half-carried the wooden basin, and took Aunt Wang to the river to wash.
Li Yuan slept until the evening. After getting up, he had dinner and prepared to go out for a walk.
He walked into the yard and took a look at Xiaomo Mountain in the distance. He felt a little heavy in his heart.
He went to the mountain to hunt two days ago and didn't see Xiao Huang.
You know, in the past, Xiao Huang would follow the smell to find him.
Even if he was in Xiaomofang, Xiao Huang would sneak down the mountain road.
But it has been so long, and Xiao Huang has not appeared.
Thinking of how Xiao Huang tried his best to stop him from moving forward, and how he gave a warning in time and turned around to run away, Li Yuan sighed deeply.
This is a favor owed to the beast.
As for returning to the mountains to find Xiao Huang, forget it.
He will never go to the deep mountains and old forests where few people go again.
This is a lesson learned at the cost of half his life.
He walked for a while, and suddenly a middle-aged man trembled in front of him.
The middle-aged man saw Li Yuan and hurriedly walked forward with Xiao Xiao and shouted: "Brother Yuan."
Li Yuan took a look, isn't this Uncle Youcai?
Uncle Youcai is Tian Bao's father, why did he come to find him?
Uncle Youcai stepped forward, and the eyes of a big man were actually a little red, "Brother Yuan, Abao didn't let me talk to you, but I..."
"What's wrong, Uncle Youcai?"
"Abao. When he came back yesterday, he was beaten up, one of his eyes was poked out, and he was lying at home."
"What?!"
After a while.
Li Yuan came to Uncle Youcai's house.
On the bed, the tall and thin boy had a bandage wrapped around his right eye, and there was a blood mark on the bandage. When he saw Li Yuan coming, he stared at Uncle Youcai anxiously and roared: "Who told you to tell Brother Yuan! Who told you to..."
Li Yuan waved his hand and said, "What happened?"
Tian Bao immediately became honest and said, "Brother, nothing."
"I won't say anything?"
"No. Brother, I was robbed by three people when I came back.
The three asked me where the money from selling the wild boar was. I said I deposited it in the bank. They looked for the bills and couldn't find them, so they beat me up. My eyes were blinded at that time.
But hey, one of the three people was scratched on the face by me, and it was not good.
They also asked me where I was and what my name was. I didn't say anything. I wouldn't betray Brother Yuan if I didn't say anything."
Li Yuan's expression moved slightly.
Sure enough, as long as there is a little profit, people will target it.
That whole wild boar can sell for a lot of money. No one in Xiao Mofang targeted it, but someone from somewhere did.
"Take good care of your wounds."
Li Yuan said, then turned back, took five pounds of meat from home, and gave it to Uncle Youcai.
When he left, Tian Bao's voice came from behind him.
"Brother Yuan, when I get better, I will follow you."
Li Yuan paused and said, "Take good care of your wounds first."
Two days later.
Li Yuan hunted a wild boar and spent a lot of effort to push it out of the mountain with a cart.
He went to Hengwu Restaurant with ease, took 30 taels of silver, rested for a while, ate a bowl of noodles, and then pushed the cart back the same way.
The way he went back was not the official road, but a small road for taking a shortcut.
On one side of this small road was a yellow reed marsh, and on the other side was a dark forest, with only a few families in front and behind.
Li Yuan asked clearly, and this was also the road Tian Bao took a few days ago.
At this time, the sky was dim and the waning moon had just come out.
The pale moonlight illuminated this road.
Li Yuan walked forward at an accelerated speed.
Suddenly, he paused because he saw a figure walking out of the woods next to him.
Then, another figure walked out from the side and the back.
The figure walking from the side had a red face and some bloodstains, as if he was caught.
The man in front smiled and said, "I told you, they will come again. They won't miss it this time."
The other two laughed and said nothing.
Li Yuan looked at the two "2~3" and one "3~4" and was startled. He said in panic, "You three, you guys..."
The man in front said, "Spend some money to keep safe. We brought knives this time."
The man behind said, "You can earn money again if you lose it, but you only have one life."
The man on the side didn't say anything, but approached with a knife with hatred.
The three people got closer and closer.
Li Yuan trembled.
The man in front walked in front of Li Yuan and was about to threaten him.
Suddenly, Li Yuan took out the hatchet from his waist with his right hand and chopped it up.
The man was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly raised his knife to block.
Bang! !
The raised knife was directly smashed open by the huge force.
With a "crash", the hatchet cut off the head diagonally.
The two people on the side and back were stunned. The man behind didn't see clearly, and thought that a fight had taken place, so he rushed forward with his knife, but the man on the side was shocked and turned around and ran.
Li Yuan chopped off a head, rushed forward again, turned around to see the man behind him, turned over and stepped, rushed out like an arrow, chopped off the man's knife with one knife, and swung again.
Another bloody head flew up.
Seeing that there was still one person running away, Li Yuan casually inserted the hatchet into the mud, flipped his left hand to grab the big bow behind him, took the arrow with his right hand, and put the arrow.
The bowstring was taut like a full moon.
Bang!
As soon as the sound was heard, the fleeing man in the distance fell down, and an arrow penetrated from the back of his neck and came out from his throat.
Li Yuan put back his bow, drew his hatchet, rushed forward and chopped off the head from the neck to avoid showing the arrow wound.
Then, he quickly dragged up the three bodies one by one, put them into the prepared sacks, quickly filled them with some stones, tied the mouths, and then ran to the riverside and threw them far into the river from the reed marsh.
After throwing them, he also threw the three knives far into the river.
The river was not shallow, and if you entered the water, you would not be discovered for a while.
After doing all this, Li Yuan left the cart on the road and quickly hid in the small woods next to him. He waited for half an hour, and when he saw no one, he walked out again and pushed the cart back.
