Beauty Jianghu

Chapter 26 The frame-up fails

But it was said that Niu Er had led a group of gangsters, carrying two large boxes of bride price, and were coming to steal the bride. The uncle's family was so frightened that they didn't know where to hide.

The gangsters quickly arrived in front of the store. When they saw Yang Shucheng, they knelt on the ground and bowed, shouting: "Hero, I have offended many of you."

Yang Shucheng just ignored it.

Niu Er's right hand was still wrapped with an old strip of cloth, and the blood on it had not yet dried. He straightened up, held his fist and said, "Hero, we have blind eyes and cannot see the mountains. I am here to kowtow to you." He raised his head twice and saw that Yang Shucheng ignored him, so he said:

"These two boxes of things were supposed to be from your store. We paid a lot of money and delivered them to you."

Looking at Uncle Yang, he said: "Please click on it, the shopkeeper, to see if it is missing."

Uncle Yang still didn't know why, so he asked them to get up quickly and said: "What are these things? You guys, you can use them as wine to drink."

Niu Er said: "We have offended many people in the past. These things are given as a gift. I just ask the shop owner to have a lot of them and not to argue with us villains."

Niu Er stood up and ordered: "Bring the things in to Shopkeeper Yang."

The gangsters got the words, stood up, lifted up the big wooden box and went inside. Uncle Yang came to stop it, and Niu Er said: "Shopkeeper Yang, this is just the original gift. If shopkeeper Yang doesn't want it, we won't be able to get up on our knees."

Uncle Yang was afraid of being bullied by them. Seeing them like this, he had no choice but to do what they did, as long as he didn't come to snatch his daughter Yang Yan.

The gangsters carried the two large wooden boxes into the back room and said to Uncle Yang, "Shopkeeper Yang, count them to see if they are enough. If not, we will make up for it later."

How dare Uncle Yang say it's not enough. This gang of ruffians came out, knelt in front of Yang Shucheng, and said, "Hero, we invite you to Dingxiang Tower and treat the hero to a drink. We will be the subordinates of the hero from now on. You tell us to go east, but we dare not go west."

Yang Shucheng just ignored them, and those hooligans were just nagging. Yang Shucheng had no choice but to go into the back room and close the door. The hooligans screamed outside for a while, but when they saw that Yang Shucheng just didn't open the door, he had to go.

After these gangsters had gone far away and never came back, Uncle Yang opened the big wooden box. It was all the things that Niu Er and other gangsters had robbed from the store in the past few years. Now a lot of them are back. I don't know what the purpose is?

Seeing that Niu Er and others were just complimenting Yang Shucheng, since the last time he went to the Qianlong Sword Sect, he found that his nephew had contacts with the heroes in the Jianghu. Could it be that he invited the heroes in the Jianghu to help?

Uncle Yang was full of doubts and walked to Yang Shucheng's house and shouted: "Shucheng, come out."

Yang Shucheng opened the door and walked out. Uncle Yang asked him what was going on? Yang Shucheng said: "I don't know. As long as they don't come to snatch girls, thank God."

Uncle Yang knew that his nephew loved to read and was a bit pedantic. Seeing that he didn't tell the truth and couldn't get anything out of him, he stopped asking. Normally, it is better to keep a closer eye on him, as you are worried that if he associates with lawless people in the world and goes astray, it will be too late to regret it.

After observing for a few days, I saw that Yang Shucheng just sat in the shop every day and practiced swordplay in the backyard at night. He did not interact with anyone, so he gradually felt relieved. Those second-rate people did not come to cause trouble in the shop again. .

Late that night, Yang Shucheng was sitting on the wooden bed practicing Taiqing Qigong. He had been practicing Taiqing Qigong very diligently in the past few days and had made great progress in Taiqing Qigong.

Gradually everything fell silent, everyone at home was fast asleep, and one or two dogs could be heard barking far away in the deep alley. Night flowers were blooming quietly, and dew had fallen, moistening the flowers, plants and trees.

At this time, I suddenly heard footsteps in the backyard, and then heard a "dong" sound, and two more "tongtong" sounds.

A thief came to the backyard.

Yang Shucheng heard clearly. He quickly stood up and stood behind the window and looked out. He saw two people walking into the utility room carrying long packages. After a while, they walked out with empty hands, looked around, and crawled Go up the wall and out.

Yang Shucheng hurriedly opened the door, ran into the utility room, dug out the long package from the utility room, opened a corner of the package, and revealed a bald dead body. Under the moon, there was an old monk.

Yang Shucheng immediately understood that someone had framed him.

Yang Shucheng immediately decided, picked up the package, ran into the courtyard, climbed up the wall, and jumped out of the wall. The two men carrying the package were walking far away and had not yet left the alley.

It was late at night, the moonlight was bright, everything was quiet, and there was no other person in the alley. Yang Shucheng followed the eaves and took advantage of the cover of trees to chase the two people.

The two people thought that the matter was done and felt very relieved. They talked along the way without even turning their heads to look back.

Yang Shucheng followed from a distance, walked through several streets, and came to an alley. The whole city was asleep, and no one was encountered along the way. Occasionally, there was a dog barking or two, but the dog was not seen running out of the door.

This alley is very familiar. It turns out to be Niubi Alley where Yang Shucheng has been. The alley is famous for its cowhide, but it really doesn’t smell like cowhide at all.

Yang Shucheng watched the two people walking forward until they reached a house. He stopped and knocked on the door. After the door opened, he walked in.

Yang Shucheng followed closely and came to the house.

It turned out to be Niu Erjia.

The two ruffians walked into the house. Yang Shucheng also took advantage of the open courtyard door and walked in. There were two rooms, and there was a donkey house in front. When he walked in, there were no donkeys inside, just sundries. Yang Shucheng hid the dead body.

Yang Shuchengfu walked to the window and listened to the people inside. Niu Er said: "He didn't take the bait last time, but this time he will not escape death."

After hearing this, Yang Shucheng chuckled secretly, turned around and walked out. He walked back to his uncle's house along the eaves, jumped into the backyard, walked into his own room, and fell asleep.

When he woke up the next day, Yang Shucheng was fine and continued to sit in the shop and help with the business. It was approaching noon when a group of policemen arrived in front of Uncle Yang's shop in a menacing manner.

When Uncle Yang saw a group of police officers coming to the store, he didn't dare to offend them, so he hurried forward to greet them. The head catcher said: "Stop talking nonsense, human life is at stake. Get out of the way, brothers, let me go in and search."

The group of detectives knocked Uncle Yang away and ran into the house, searching for a while. Uncle Yang looked at Yang Shucheng and saw that his face was as calm as water. He hadn't gone out these days and only sat at home. He shouldn't be the one causing trouble!

This group of detectives rummaged through the cabinets and grabbed a few gold jewelry. They were doing small business, so they could only make ends meet, and nothing valuable was found.

Of course, this group of detectives was not satisfied, so they went to the backyard again and turned over the utility room. Except for the old clutter and some pungent dust, there was really nothing to find.

I saw Yang Yan hiding in the back room. She was delicate and white, with a shy face and a slim figure. She looked like a treasure, but she really couldn't take it away in broad daylight.

When the arresting officer saw that he found nothing and had no evidence, he could not be taken to the Yamen for questioning, and there was no reason to take Yang Yan away. He was so angry that he could only say hello and leave.

When Uncle Yang saw that they were leaving, he quickly took out some porcelain bowls from the shop and stuffed them into the catcher's hands. The catcher would not take a fancy to these things. He threw them with his hand and turned around and left.

The group of arrests came and went in a hurry. Uncle Yang was just confused. Seeing Yang Shucheng sitting aside blankly, as if it had nothing to do with him, he stepped forward and asked, "Shucheng, what's going on?"

Yang Shucheng said calmly: "They wanted to extort money, but in the end they got nothing. They came in good spirits and returned in despair."

When Uncle Yang saw him showing off his words, he stopped paying attention to him. If he paid attention to him again, he would recite poems. As long as the policeman no longer troubled him, he would be satisfied.

Yang Shucheng sat in the shop, thinking about why he came? One is to see He Jinhua again, and the other is to avenge his father. His father was killed for nothing. This revenge must be avenged. Now his swordsmanship has greatly improved. If he doesn't avenge, he will be a son of man in vain!

When he got up the next day, Yang Shucheng said to his uncle: "I have been at your uncle's house for a month. Now I feel homesick and want to go back."

Uncle Yang was naturally reluctant to let his nephew go and tried to keep him, but Yang Shucheng was determined to leave. Uncle Yang was helpless and said:

"You've gone back. Come whenever you want. What's the point of being polite to your uncle's house?"

Yang Shucheng nodded in agreement.

Uncle Yang said again: "I saw you practicing swordsmanship every night, and your swordsmanship is good enough to defend yourself, so I felt relieved. If you are leaving, I will tell you something. You must listen. You should not associate with people in the world in the future." , If you go astray, you will do great harm to others."

Yang Shucheng said: "Everything my uncle said was for my nephew. Why doesn't my nephew understand? I will definitely keep it in my heart from now on."

Uncle Yang felt relieved when he saw that he had listened to the advice. When he saw that he was about to leave, he suddenly felt that Niu Erji didn't come to snatch the bride. It must have something to do with his nephew. But when he asked him, he didn't say anything. We are seeing each other today. I'm afraid Niu Erji People are coming again.

Thinking of this, Uncle Yang said worriedly: "As soon as you leave, I'm afraid Niu Er will come to steal your girl again."

Yang Shucheng looked at his uncle's old face, which was full of sorrow, and comforted him: "Uncle, don't worry, I guarantee that Niu Er will not come to your door again."

"What can you do?" Uncle Yang asked anxiously.

Yang Shucheng scratched his hair and said slowly: "There is nothing I can do. I just feel that he will not come again."

After hearing these words, Uncle Yang felt infinite despair.
