Poor Family

  Chapter 91 Tracking down the suspect (3)

  The robbed tiger head boat was moored in a pond about one mile away from Yongji Canal. Weeds were overgrown on both sides, surrounded by large forests, and the nearest family was a hundred steps away.

  Li Yanqing hid on a big tree, the lush branches and leaves covered his figure, through the gaps in the branches and leaves, Li Yanqing watched the movement of the ship without blinking.

At this time, the cabin door of the ship opened, and a big man with a bare upper body came out from the inside. He held a sharp knife in one hand and a fat sheep that had just been skinned in the other. He squatted on the bow and started washing. Peel it up.

   After a while, two men came out of the cabin, one of them was holding two jugs of wine, and the other was setting up a barbecue grill. They were chatting while they were busy, and their voices clearly reached Li Yanqing's ears.

"The harvest of this ticket is not bad. They are all high-quality furs. They are worth at least three thousand taels of silver. Presumably Yang Ya has already found a merchant for us. Tomorrow we will go to Daming City to sell the goods and go to the capital to have a good time for a few days. !"

   "Brother, do you want to give Guanshi Zhang the part?"

   "Why do you care about him? I killed people for him. I didn't ask him for money. It's not bad, but I want to share with us? Believe it or not, I cut off his fat meat and roasted it!"

  Li Yanqing slowly clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand. His initial intuition was correct. This was not a simple murder and robbery, but someone plotting to kill the patriarch. ． ． ． Who is this steward Zhang?

  The Bai brothers had packed up the fat sheep, grilled the mutton on the brazier, and picked up a big bowl to drink, but Li Yanqing didn't dare to leave, he was patiently waiting for the time to come.

  Lei Butou said that the three brothers of the Bai family, nicknamed Jiaolong Sanxiong, were very skilled both in water and on land. Hundreds of yamen servants surrounded them twice, and they broke through the encirclement and left, but many died.

Li Yanqing knows his own martial arts. If he fights alone, he may be able to take advantage of his fast speed and kill the opponent by surprise, but the opponent is now three thugs. He is definitely not an opponent. He has to wait for them to get drunk and see if there is any. There is no chance to start.

The three Bai brothers drank until late at night, and then returned to the cabin to sleep drunk. Li Yanqing took off his coat, bare upper body, carried the dagger behind his back, and put three stones around his waist. He dived into the water silently and swam towards the big ship.

There was a cable behind the boat, Li Yanqing climbed onto the big boat with the help of the cable, and crawled for a while, but after hearing no movement, he crawled forward along the side of the boat little by little. He had seen clearly before that one of the three people passed out drunk on the bow deck On board, the other two returned to the cabin to sleep.

   At this moment, the cabin door creaked open, and a big man reeking of alcohol came out. Li Yanqing was startled, and immediately shrank back in the darkness outside the cabin.

   "Brother, go back to sleep! Be careful not to freeze your body at night."

The big man sleeping on the deck muttered a few words, turned over, but didn't move, and the people who got up at night didn't bother to call him, so he staggered towards Li Yanqing with his body on his side. Lying on the deck, my heart was pounding nervously.

   Fortunately, the big man didn't see Li Yanqing. He walked to the side of the boat, turned his back to Li Yanqing, and unbuttoned his trousers, 'Wow! Wow! ’ Peeing into the river, the opportunity has come, but Li Yanqing is a little hesitant, although he has witnessed Uncle Hu murder, but he has never killed anyone with his own hands after all, he does not know how to start?

  Li Yanqing hesitated for a moment, but the big man felt something. When he turned around, he happened to see Li Yanqing who was hiding in the dark, and his eyes suddenly widened.

At this moment, without any hesitation, Li Yanqing stood up and stabbed out with his sword. The sword was so fast that the big man couldn't dodge. The big man let out a heart-piercing scream, tilted his body, and fell heavily into the river.

Li Yanqing decided to go all out, and rushed towards another Bai brother who was sleeping on the deck. The person sleeping on the deck was Bai Ming, the eldest of the Bai brothers. He was awakened by the screams of his third brother, but his body was still intact He didn't recover from the stupor for a while, so he sat up with difficulty, groping around for the wrist-relieving knife beside him, just as he was about to touch the wrist-releasing knife on the deck, Li Yanqing had already rushed to him, and flew him down on the deck, pressing down on the in his body.

Although Bai Ming's body has not recovered his agility, his arm has already recovered. He supported Li Yanqing's arm with one hand, preventing him from raising his sword to stab it, while the other hand pinched Li Yanqing's neck, trying to crush it with all his strength. Li Yanqing's throat.

  Li Yanqing only felt a sharp pain in his throat, and his eyes went black for a while. At the moment when he was about to faint, the dagger in his hand finally pierced the opponent's chest, piercing the opponent's heart. Bai Ming screamed wildly and died on the spot.

  Li Yanqing broke free from his hands and strangled his throat. After a while, he recovered his breath, and the blackness in front of his eyes gradually disappeared. Li Yanqing was horrified, and his throat was crushed by the opponent just a little bit.

   At this point, 'Bang! ’ With a sound, the cabin door was knocked open, and the second child, Bai Liang, stumbled out, holding a simple knife in his hand, and cursed vaguely: "You bastard, grandpa will send you to the west!"

  He roared, swung the knife and rushed towards Li Yanqing, Li Yanqing caught a glimpse of the wrist-releasing knife on the deck, just five feet away in front of him, Li Yanqing rolled forward, the knife was in his hand, and then waved his hand.

  I saw a flash of cold light, 'Ka! ’ There was a cracking sound of the skull, a wrist-relieving knife was inserted from Bai Liang’s forehead, and the tip of the knife protruded from the back of his head. Bai Liang took two steps back and fell straight on the deck. He was dead, but his eyes were as wide as copper bells.

   After a while, Li Yanqing fished out the body of the third son Bai Guang from the water again. He was stabbed and broke the aorta in his body, and he lost too much blood and died.

In less than half a minute, Li Yanqing killed three people in a row. His heart was already numb. He had neither the thrill of killing nor the fear of killing. Everyone can kill him, if they weren't drunk, the corpse lying on the deck now would be Li Yanqing.

It was still dark all around, only the sound of the wind blowing through the reeds, Li Yanqing finally calmed down, he pondered for a long time, and finally decided that this matter cannot be reported to the official, Xiangzhou may praise him, but the Daming Mansion may not, reporting to the official is just a matter of self looking for trouble.

He went into the cabin and searched, and found more than a hundred taels of gold and a dozen pieces of precious jewelry. He also found a dental plaque on the table with the name of the dental man Yang Qu engraved on it. This person was given to the three brothers of the Bai family. The dealer who sold the stolen goods might be able to find out the identity of Manager Zhang from him.

  Li Yan packed his belongings and tooth cards into a small bag on his back, and set fire to the ship before leaving the ship.

Standing on the shore, Li Yanqing looked at the blazing big ship and the ignited reeds around it. The smoke and flames spread for tens of feet, which was spectacular. Li Yanqing knelt down slowly and prayed in a low voice: I have killed the gangsters and avenged the patriarch, but Yanqing will never let the real culprit go, may the patriarch rest in peace in heaven!"

  He kowtowed three times, got up and strode away.

Two days later, dozens of police officers from the Daming Mansion searched the burned ship thoroughly. There were three charred bodies on board. Judging from the various relics found at the scene, the three burnt to death were none other than Bai, the gangster they had captured for many years. Shi Sanxiong.

For a while, the arresters rejoiced, and Luo Yu, the head catcher, even took the credit for himself. They rounded up the three heroes of the Bai clan, and finally set fire to the three men to death. Donglu mentioned the strong commendation from the Department of Criminal and Prison, rewarded him with 500 guan, and captured Luo Yu once as a great achievement.

Hulu Lane in Daming City, this is the concentration of dentists from various industries in Daming Prefecture. Hundreds of dentists from all walks of life gather here to match buyers and sellers and handle various intermediary businesses. The dental industry in the Song Dynasty was extremely developed. , They played a pivotal role in the prosperous business of the Song Dynasty.

Li Yanqing inquired all the way, and found Yang Qu, a fur tooth man, in a small building in Hulu Lane. He was a middle-aged man in his forties. .

He was obviously very displeased with Li Yanqing's rash visit, his small eyes rolled around, and he said coldly: "Your official, you have found the wrong person! I don't know Guanshi Zhang, and I have nothing to do with the gangster Bai's Sanxiong." , please go!"

  Li Yanqing threw the tooth card on the table, "This is your tooth card!"

  Yang Qu glanced at the tooth card, dismissively said: "I don't know how many people I have given my tooth card to. What's the point of a petty official using a tooth card to trap me? Do you think I will admit to selling stolen goods for the gangster?"

Li Yanqing was furious, grabbed his collar, held his dagger against his throat, and said viciously: "I might as well tell you the truth, the three brothers of the Bai family have been killed by me, if you are sensible, tell me the truth , Who is Guanshi Zhang? I'll pretend I don't know anything, otherwise, you can go on the road with the three brothers of the Bai family!"

  Yang Qu trembled with fright, and tremblingly said: "Young official, let's talk if we have something to say."

   "Tell me!"

  Li Yanqing loosened his collar, pushed him hard to sit on the chair, "Who is Guanshi Zhang?"

Under the threat of Li Yanqing's death, Yang Qu had to tell the truth, "Two days ago, a manager surnamed Zhang came to me and said that there was a batch of high-quality furs and asked me to find a buyer. If the buyer is found, Let me go to Liji Restaurant to find him, I guess he should be the steward of Liji Restaurant, but I really don't know that it is the stolen goods of the Bai family brothers."

  In Li Yanqing's mind, 'Buzz! ’ With a bang, isn’t Li Ji Restaurant the restaurant opened by the Li family in Daming Mansion? Could it be that the patriarch was really killed by Li Wengui?

Anger was burning in Li Yanqing's heart, and he immediately found the Liji restaurant located at the south gate of the city. Li Yanqing stood across the street and observed for a while, only to see a waiter come out of the restaurant and into the alley next to him. Yan Qing followed immediately, and caught up to the buddy in just a moment.

  Li Yanqing held the buddy's throat with his sword, and the buddy trembled with fright. He thought he had met some thug who robbed him, so he tremblingly said, "I'm just a little buddy, don't have much money?"

   "I don't want money, I just ask you a few words, just tell me the truth!"

  The buddy heard that it was just a question, so he felt a little relieved, and said, "What do you want to ask?"

   "Where did your manager Zhang go?"

  The guy was startled, why did he look for Guan Shi again? He shook his head again and again and said, "Guan Zhang has been missing for several days. I heard that the master is also looking for him urgently. I really don't know where he is now?"

   "Okay! Let me ask you one last question. Does this steward Zhang have another name?"

   "He was originally called Liu Chenghong, but later changed his name to Zhang Yuan."
