Chapter 62 Pursuit (2)
Zhu Qingsheng had long expected that Zhong Shuidan would not give up, but he didn't expect the revenge to come so quickly. It was probably because he had just arrived in the city and issued a wanted order with the identity of the Jinyiwei. Last night, they had just appeared in the county magistrate's mansion. It was not easy to make a wanted order.
As soon as the two constables were posted, the people around him surrounded him and talked endlessly. Zhu Qingsheng looked from afar and saw that the sketchy portrait was them. He was really worried and worried. This was a market, with many people and many eyes. If someone who had just read the wanted order was recognized, the trouble would be great.
Zhu Qingsheng quickly pulled Mei Shinan. Seeing that he was drowsy and was about to fall asleep, it was strange, but he had no time to think so much at this moment, and said anxiously: "Don't sleep for now, let's go quickly."
Mei Shinan was shaken several times before she woke up. She opened her sleepy eyes and asked, "What's wrong? Isn't this place good? Where are we going?"
Zhu Qingsheng pointed to the wanted order and said, "Look at it, Zhong Shuidan's counterattack has come, and he can't stay here anymore."
Mei Shinan was confused and wanted to lie down and have a good sleep. At this time, he felt that his eyelids were sinking and he was almost unable to hold on. However, when he heard Zhu Qingsheng say this, he knew that something was wrong, so he let Zhu Qingsheng drag his body to walk.
Zhu Qingsheng held Mei Shidao and walked out of the market. Suddenly, he remembered that although the roads outside the market were smooth, it was also the place with the most crowded people. It was better to go back and pass through the market. The situation inside was complicated and the houses were staggered, which was more suitable for hiding and escaping.
Mei Shinan was always confused and half asleep. If she hadn't breathed evenly and made humming sounds from time to time, Zhu Qingsheng really thought he had fainted.
Zhu Qingsheng’s biggest worry was that a pedestrian who had just read the wanted order and recognized them at a glance, but dragged Mei Shidao all the way inside, and no one came to disturb them.
When people pass by, will they pay attention to the appearance of a beggar? Even if they pay attention, will they remember their appearance in their minds?
Zhu Qingsheng was struggling to walk with the plum blossoms. A ox cart came from the middle of the road, and packed bulging sacks were piled up behind him. A man in his thirties closed his eyes, spread his legs, lay on the sack, occasionally whipping the body of the ox, turning, walking slowly, and closing his eyes was done.
Zhu Qingsheng was slightly impressed by his eyes. It was because this man was very skilled or had been driving a cattle for a while. Practice made perfect, so he dared to walk on the street like this.
As he got closer, the man could see clearly his appearance. He was strong, wearing a yellow-brown coarse cloth clothes and trousers, revealing two brass and copper arms, and a cloth whip whipped the cow from time to time, with his face full of stubble and sand, looking down and miserable.
Zhu Qingsheng kept looking at him, one was a little curious about him, and the other was to pay attention to his ox cart. What if he couldn't grasp it well, then the ox would lose control?
When the ox cart passed by, the man seemed to have noticed him. He opened his eyes and looked at him. His eyes were ordinary, but there seemed to be a sharp aura hidden.
Zhu Qingsheng was shocked and immediately turned his head, and suddenly felt something was wrong. How could an ordinary cart driver have such a look? Just as he was about to take a closer look, the man had already driven the ox cart, leaving only a blurry back.
Zhu Qingsheng secretly praised him. Judging from his eyes, the man must be no ordinary person, but he just didn't know why he was a driver.
Fortunately, no one noticed them along the way. After walking through the market, he walked east for two or three miles. It was June in the hot summer. Zhu Qingsheng was sweating profusely and could not walk the road. Seeing that there was a tea shed in front of him, three or four men were sitting inside and talking loudly. Zhu Qingsheng felt relaxed when he saw this, and walked over and put the sleeping plum tree in a corner. He looked at his embarrassed body, no different from a beggar. He had no face to go to the table, so he had to rest on the side. Fortunately, the men on the side saw that they were beggars, and they didn't pay much attention to it.
Zhu Qingsheng looked at Mei Shidao who was sleeping soundly, both strange and worried. He didn't know what happened to Mei Shidao. He had eaten so much food before, but now he is so sleepy. Is it because he has worked too hard for the past two days?
This idea was rejected by Zhu Qingsheng. Although they had not had a good rest since last night, Zhu Qingsheng was a little more difficult than plum blossoms, but he was not so tired.
Zhu Qingsheng looked at Mei Shinan's appearance, his arms were bare, and the exposed skin was covered with plaster and dirt. He only had a black arm ring on his right wrist, and he looked three more embarrassed than him.
Seeing Mei Shinan's armband and thinking of the poisonous snake wandering inside, Zhu Qingsheng seemed to understand something...
Before he could think it through thoroughly, he heard a man shouting loudly: "Jia Feng, don't be whining and disbelief. I'll give you a damn guarantee. Those three eunuchs are definitely not something that can be killed."
Three eunuchs? What they said seemed to be related to what they had happened last night. Zhu Qingsheng looked back and saw a tall man with a beard and staring at the table with his hands, staring at a thinner man opposite him.
The thin man's face turned red, as if he was a little afraid of the tall man opposite him, but he still said, "I have said it several times. Those three eunuchs are definitely killed by someone. Maybe after they are killed, they will throw the body into the river. If the Yin-Yang people and river gods do not collect them, they will push the body to the shore, so we met them."
The tall man said angrily: "Don't you, I've been in this business for almost forty years. The funerals in and out of the village are not my hands. Yesterday, when I looked at their bodies after death, I realized that this was not murder, or those unclean things... Um!" Before he finished speaking, an old man next to him covered his mouth.
The old man said, "Okay, don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, especially the father-in-law of the Dongchang. If you want to live a little more, just close your mouth."
The old man seemed to have some prestige, and the tall man and the man called "Jia Feng" immediately calmed down. The tall man put down his palm, glared at the thin man fiercely, and slowly sat back to his original position.
Zhu Qingsheng was very disappointed. He caused a lot of trouble last night, which caused the three eunuchs to escape in a panic and caused a lot of trouble. Unexpectedly, he met an insider here, but the old man stopped him.
