Chapter 18 Wrongful Soul (3)
Zhu Qingsheng was shocked and subconsciously wanted to go out to rescue his master. This movement suddenly caused the dead branches and leaves around him to make noises. Fortunately, there was a mess outside and no one heard it. This sound immediately calmed Zhu Qingsheng down. Now that his master has been arrested, he is definitely not the opponent of those constables. Didn’t he get in for free when he goes out rashly? Moreover, what the master taught him just now was still ringing in his ears. How could he make his master feel sad for him? He took a few deep breaths and calmed down slowly, but how could he calm down when his master was arrested outside?
Who knew that Zhu Qingsheng was in a turbulent manner, Sima Yuan and the other party were also worried about Zhu Qingsheng. They must not come out now. There were more than a dozen constables and an Jinyiwei. As long as the little disciple was impulsive, the master and apprentice would fall into it. The little disciple could not withstand the interrogation, imprisonment, or even torture.
The county magistrate's admiration appeared between his eyebrows and praised loudly: "Mr. Wang is indeed powerful and intelligent. He only touched a little finger and made the old thief surrender. The little official really admired him." He learned and changed the meaning of Captain Wu's words that flattered him just now, and gave it to Wang Ren again.
Captain Wu was unwilling to fall behind and then said, "That's right, this old thief can only be taken down by Lord Wang. If Lord Wang had not prepared the enemy first and had prepared the rope to defeat the enemy in advance, the old thief would have not been arrested at this time."
When Sima Yuanji heard this, he was shocked. Did they know that they were Taoist people long ago? They also knew that they had prepared the hemp rope soaked in women's blood when they came. Could it be that this was arranged in advance?
Wang Ren glanced at Captain Wu, then walked outside, and said without saying a word: "This old thief has been captured, tied up and sent to the jail."
The county magistrate wanted to say a few words, "Sir, I'll ride my horse." "I'm hungry just now, I'm going to eat something later." ... But Wang Ren raised his legs and walked away, his steps were very fast, and he disappeared on the spot in a blink of an eye, making the county magistrate's face full of embarrassment, and his whole body of words stuck in his throat.
Captain Wu laughed and said, "You old thief, you are not good at committing crimes. You have to do something here. Look, let's fall." After a few steps, Sima Yuan, his mouth, wrists and ankles were tied tightly, and the two detectives carried it away.
From beginning to end, the county magistrates, constables, and Jinyiwei ignored the body of Lou Kangcheng who was lying on the ground.
After those people walked for a long time, the night was full of the sky and silent, Zhu Qingsheng came out of the haystack. When he saw Lou Kangcheng's body lying on the ground and dying with his eyes open, he felt extremely uncomfortable. He stepped forward and bowed deeply, and said with great guilt: "Old man, if it weren't for my master and disciple, you might not have died tragically. I am really sorry. But don't worry, my master and I will definitely give you justice. May your spirit in heaven bless us."
After saying that, he bowed deeply again, hugged some haystacks and gently covered the body. He turned around and left until he could no longer see the corners of the corpse.
After turning over the wooden railing, I remembered what my master said: "Do you remember how we crossed Weishan Lake last time?" I understood the implication. I turned around and walked towards the shore. On the road, I touched the talisman on my chest. An An was fine, and I breathed a sigh of relief. I thought that the master's sunny parasol was too eye-catching and my belt was in unnecessary trouble, so I found a piece of gray-blue cloth next to the road and wrapped the sunny parasol tightly. I felt a little relieved.
There are many wooden boats parked on the shore. Recently, Loujiaji has had a great life, and no one has gotten off the boat to fish, let alone find someone to come to see the boat. Zhu Qingsheng found a small boat that accommodates two or three people. Before boarding the boat, he said sincerely to the bow of the boat: "This ship owner, I'm sorry for you this time. I won't sue you and I'll borrow it for a few days. But I will repay you soon. Please rest assured." Then he untied the rope, shook the wooden pulp, and rowed away.
At this time, at the beginning of the moon, the moonlight was dim, and the light disappeared into the dark clouds. Zhu Qingsheng was stunned and was very powerful and slashed weakly, thinking: "Who is that man in black? Master asked me to see the old man's temple, where a silver needle was inserted. It must have been the man in black. He had done most of the murders here. Why did those constables frame the master? How could the master be caught by them? (That woman's blood-filled thing is hard to say. Sima Yuan and he thought about two years later and would talk about it when he grew up, but he didn't expect to meet him today.) What will happen to the master after being caught by those constables? I don't know if it's good, what will I do in the next few days..."
After thinking for a while, I felt a mess in my mind. I shook my head suddenly, leaned sideways into the river and scooped a handful of cold water, patted it on my face and woke up. When I saw the situation around me, I was shocked.
While he was thinking about it just now, he was shaking the boat and didn't know where he was. The waves on the river surface were uncertain. Within a short 1 meter, there were seven or eight waves in different directions impacting each other. Some were outward, some were inward, some were left to right, and some were right to left. The two flowers collided and turned into two waves, just as if there were big fish swimming against the water surface below these waves. Fortunately, these waves were extremely small, so they didn't shake the boat into the river just now.
Zhu Qingsheng was shocked, Oh, what place is this? I accidentally came here. I looked up at the sky. It was dark in the night and there was no starlight at all. The sky and the river were all black. How could I tell the direction clearly?
This is difficult to distinguish the direction, and Zhu Qingsheng dares not draw any more. What if he draws the wrong direction and is getting farther and farther away from the right path?
Fortunately, Zhu Qingsheng's temperament is the kind of person who is at ease with the situation. Seeing that it is useless and useless, he lay in the cabin, leaning on the board and thinking about what happened in the past two days.
Since they entered Jiujiang City, there have been cases of dead people constantly occurring. From outside the teahouse, the storyteller Yu Xiu interrupted the storyteller, to the time when the updater Liu Laowu saw it with his own eyes in the evening, and the sudden death of Mr. Lou just now. In just two days, he actually encountered three deaths. Who was the murderer and why did he kill them?
The night was getting darker and deeper. Zhu Qingsheng was tired all day and was dizzy and sleepy. A gust of cold wind blew, and he suddenly woke up and patted his chest. If he fell asleep and fell into the river, he would have to enjoy the treatment of cold wind and cold water bubbles all night.
I thought this way, but as soon as I got sleepy, not everyone could suppress it. Flashes of sleepy surged on my head, and my eyelids gradually became heavier. Zhu Qingsheng's body shaking and suddenly woke up. He went back and forth several times, but he couldn't bear it and fell asleep on the bow of the boat.
It was cool in the middle of the night, and he turned around in his sleep, and fell into the river with a "thump".
