The bear child of the Red Chamber, Jia Cong

It is said that Jia Cong and Yuan Bai were talking in the room, and someone outside was clapping and talking.All three people in the room looked outside.The door was pushed open with a "squeak", and someone appeared at the door.This person was dressed in yellow cloth, thin and bald, it was the old man that Ling Dang had seen in Bi An's mansion.With a smile on his face, the old man proudly stepped across the threshold with his hands behind his back.Hearing the sound of "bang", the old man had a blood hole on his forehead. He swayed a few times, and before he could say a word, he fell down with a "plop".

Yuan Bai was shocked: "There are assassins!"

Jia Cong waved his hand: "Lord Yuan, don't panic, the shooter is the late-born bodyguard." Looking at the old man's body, he said, "Your Excellency must have heard that Lord Qiu Liang fought with bandits in a house on Zhuzhi Street a few days ago. It was a small battle, but two people escaped. He was one of them."

Yuan Bai was angry and frightened, pointed at him and said, "You clearly know who he is!"

Jia Cong shrugged: "I really don't know. But I know he wants to kill me. Countless classic dog blood movies tell us that when you want to kill someone, you have to shoot immediately. Once you explain the ins and outs to him, he won't die. I don't care why he wants to kill me, and I don't want to know." He smiled and said, "That Mr. Mei had better hide and not come out and move, and he will die when he sees the light."

The owner of the antique shop brought in some men to carry the bald old man's body.Yuan Bai asked: "How does Mr. Jia plan to dispose of this corpse?"

"Burn it to ashes." Jia Cong turned his head and ordered, "Don't search him, I don't want to know who he is." The boss agreed.

Turning around and looking at Yuan Bai again, the man collapsed on the chair from calmness to fear at a speed visible to the naked eye.After a long time, he said feebly, "What else does Mr. Jia want to do?"

"I want to kill Mr. Mei. Would Mr. Yuan be willing to confess him?" Jia Cong smiled like a beckoning cat, "In exchange, I can help you kill the murderer who killed your son, Princess Shu, or make her suffer. "

Yuan Bai stayed for a while, then sneered, "Mr. Jia, why bother to excuse Situ Cen."

Jia Cong said: "Am I trying to shirk for Situ Cen? Master Yuan just ask Nanny He. You just think, if the son didn't die at the hands of the concubine, what else could Nanny He use to govern her? The concubine of the king of Shu who died? Do you really think that the king of Shu doesn’t know? Now her backer is not the king of Shu at all, and it’s only three inches that she killed the son’s lover. And Madam He must have evidence in hand, or ironclad evidence. Anyway, you If you don’t ask her, you can pretend to be stupid. If you ask her, she will be embarrassed to hide it. If you want to go back and discuss with your boss, I’m sure they won’t allow you to kill her—the princess is too useful to live Death is worthless, so if you want revenge, you can only entrust it to me." Yuan Bai was thoughtful.Jia Cong waited for a while, baring his teeth and smirking: "How about it? Do you want to trade Mr. Mei for the life of your enemy? If you want to do business, hurry up~~ When I find Mr. Mei myself, you will be useless. "

While talking, a clerk wiped away the blood that the bald old man accidentally spilled on the door near the door frame.Yuan Bai stared blankly at the two men with a basin of water, the wet marks that had been wiped dried up in a short while, and the bald old man seemed as if he had never been here before in the blink of an eye.Jia Cong sat for a long time, thinking whether to hum a little tune, Yuan Bai said, "Is Mr. Jia preparing to assist King Lu now?"

"No!" Jia Cong said, "Don't do things so rigidly, as long as you can achieve your goals. I will help those who send troops abroad, regardless of their surname Huo, Shui, Zhou, and Situ. If it is the Tang Dynasty, I will assist them. Li's, in the Ming Dynasty, assisted Zhu. If Wang Mang usurped the Han, as long as Wang Mang was willing to go overseas to grab land, I would also assist him. I don't assist the emperor, but only help people who fight abroad, whether he is a ruler or a minister. Thief." He spread his hands and said, "Why don't I take the imperial examination!"

Yuan Bai nodded: "I understand. No wonder Mr. Mei said that you must have rebelled."

Jia Cong waved his hands again and again: "No! I never surrendered, so where did I come from?"

Yuan Bai hesitated for a long time, then tentatively said: "What if there is one person who is willing to attack foreign countries with the power of the whole country?"

Jia Cong said with a smile: "If someone wants to rule the world these few years, no matter who it is, I will kill him."

Yuan Bai was shocked: "Why!"

Jia Cong said: "I've said it countless times! The civil war has destroyed the population, and I feel sorry for those bandits who died on Zhuzhi Street a few days ago. They are all middle-aged men! It would be great to send them overseas to occupy land. It’s okay to die on the battlefield with Westerners, or you can kill a few more Westerners.”

Yuan Bai asked anxiously, "Mr. Jia is not afraid of disobeying the destiny?"

Jia Cong said seriously: "I came here to change my fate against the heavens. If we obey the fate, we will wait for the Westerners to destroy the country!" Yuan Bai was dumbfounded.Jia Cong waited patiently for half a day but he didn't see him speak, so he had to say first, "Master Yuan, you should think about it carefully. Do you want to do this business with me? Mr. Mei's official document of the sea arrest has been hanging on the street."

Yuan Bai closed his eyes for a long time, gritted his teeth and said, "If the way is different, don't conspire with each other."

Jia Cong waved his hand: "No one wants to conspire with Mr. Yuan, it's just for business. You want to avenge your son, but I want to kill Mr. Mei. Otherwise, Mr. Yuan seems to have not figured out who the enemy is. You go back and test it out first." Let's test Mother He. Anyway, before I kill Mr. Mei, our deal is valid."

Yuan Bai raised his head suddenly: "Why doesn't Mr. Jia want to know the identity of that old man just now?"

Jia Cong lowered his eyes and recited "Infinite Heavenly Venerable": "When a person dies, everything is empty, so what do you care about?"

Yuan Bai shook his head, stood up and bowed to say goodbye; Jia Cong hurriedly returned the salute and sent him out personally.Just as Yuan Bai was about to cross the threshold, Jia Cong said, "By the way, no matter whether the business is successful or not, Lord Yuan please don't stop Ah Cen from rectifying the administration of officials." , The leader of the old Confucian society who is like the prime minister of the country and corrupt officials."

Yuan Bai was furious: "This old man is so greedy for ink that he spends a penny!"

"I didn't say you're always greedy for ink." Jia Cong said, "But it's always true that you always protect them. With all due respect, you won't be able to cross the Kingdom of Shu in this way, and the Taoist brother on Huashan should stop thinking about it. gone."

Yuan Bai's face froze: "What... what brother Dao..."

Jia Cong curled his lips and said: "You just look at the whole plan. Sending a son to the eldest son, and then holding the real identity of the fake grandson to control the Shu Kingdom, isn't it the same as what Brother Huashan did in Qin? How could Shu succeed? Who was the planner? Or the father-in-law hiding in Prince Qin’s mansion. Don’t you have any idea how to do it?”

Yuan Bai smiled wryly: "Nobody and no money, what can we do without these things."

"Brother Taoist, don't you have bandits in your hand? Zhou Xiaolan started her business with a single person, and the water-soluble soldiers and horses are also bandits. Don't they all establish a country? Don't always think about empty-handed white wolves." Jia Cong sighed again, "The Supreme Emperor We have to face up to the current situation. He is no longer the emperor, but the grassroots. As long as anyone has ambition and ability, it is the same to go to a foreign country to be the lord of the country. It is better than being trapped on Jinggang Mountain."

Yuan Bai sadly said: "So Mr. Jia knows all about it."

"I know, so what if I know? Am I going to fight the injustice? Why doesn't Master Yuan fight the injustice for the people of the Shu Kingdom?"

Yuan Bai picked up his feet and left.After walking two steps, he turned around and said, "Mr. Jia, do you know what the house on Zhuzhi Street is for?"

Jia Cong said: "I'm not interested in knowing. All secret places are worthless once exposed. Those ashes have been dead for many years. As I said just now, the dead are useless." Yuan Bai seemed to have gained some confidence, he groaned heavily, and shook his sleeves gone.

The other young man in the room was Chen Ruijin pretending to be a man. Seeing that Yuan Bai had left, he followed out of the courtyard and glanced at Jia Cong: "It's okay. How did you guess that the old man would follow?"

Jia Cong heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "I guessed something right again." Nai took his daughter-in-law's hand and went into the house, explaining, "My grandfather obtained the Shangyu post during his early years of war. The family did not spread it around, but the earliest four kings and eight princes probably knew it. Yuan Bai liked calligraphy and painting, and everyone in Chengdu knew it. Suddenly someone let out the wind and got the Shangyu post in his hand. It was obvious that I was catching Yuan Bai. Yuan Bai personally The old man is Liu Dengxi's man. The first emperor felt that he was about to die, so he passed this Bi'an dungeon to the Supreme Emperor. It was probably at that time that Liu Dengxi's men replaced the late emperor's. People. Now that the dungeon was dug by Qiu Liang, this bald old man has no job for the time being. Today he knows that I am hooking up with Yuan Bai, and he wants to meet you again, so he will probably come here in person. Besides, those people in Huashan are not allowed to guard Do you care about the Supreme Emperor? To them, the emperor is more important than anything else."

Chen Ruijin thought for a while: "The dungeon, guess what it's for."

Jia Cong shook his head: "I don't know, I can't guess it at all. Wait for Dong Ming." He hesitated for a while, "I always think it should be related to their courage to swallow the Kingdom of Shu. They have no soldiers and no money. It is impossible to control Shu with only a baby and a woman. Are the King of Shu and Ah Cen dead? Besides this bald prison head, there must be something else in that dungeon that can help the Supreme Emperor control The Kingdom of Shu. Fan Meiren’s baby boy is just a sign. Everything is ready, and it’s only due to Dongfeng that he raised it up and used it as a flagpole.”

"If that's the case, they have to prepare everything first." Chen Ruijin thought, "But now the Kingdom of Shu is in the hands of King Shu and his son."

Jia Cong couldn't help knocking on the table with his finger: "Also. Why did Mr. Mei coax me to go to Bi An's mansion. If you want to kill me, just buy a house in Chengdu and coax me to go there. Why do you have to be there? I'm so cunning, if I let me escape, wouldn't it expose their importance?" The husband and wife guessed for a long time, but they didn't have a clue.

On the other end, Yuan Bai left the antique shop and rode back home in a daze.Nai sat in the study for a long time, looking forward to the sunset with great difficulty, didn't even eat dinner, changed into a servant's clothes, and slipped out through the north corner door.He didn't ride a horse, he was wearing a bamboo hat and walking all the way, a drunk man followed him at a leisurely pace.The two walked one after the other, and for half an hour they came to a small house, Yuan Bai knocked on the door and entered.After a while, two men in black came out of the house, looked around for a while, and then went back.Not long after, the drunk also knocked on the door and went in.After about two quarters of an hour, a government servant from the Chengdu government passed by with a dog, yelling and yelling.Until the third watch, Yuan Bai came out of the house and went back to Yuan's mansion.The two men in black came out to look around again, but seeing nothing happened, they went back.

By the fourth watch, the night was quiet.Dozens of night walkers in black surrounded the house from all sides, their figures were as thick as Shura.Suddenly, several gunshots were heard, as if children had set off some firecrackers.When the house stood still, countless people jumped out of the window from the bed, and they all made live targets.It turned out that the night walkers were all leaning against the wall.There was another bark.Night pedestrians immediately counted shots and killed the watchdog.Seeing that there was no movement in the house, some stayed on the wall, while others jumped into the courtyard wall.

I saw all the night walkers with round helmets on their heads, and a group of three patrolling the courtyard.Then, a group of people raised their guns and guarded the door, while the other groups guarded the windows.Another group came over, covering the left and right, and the man in the middle kicked open the gate and quickly avoided it.Sure enough, there were several gunshots in the house.The person who kicked open the door spoke a string of English, which meant that there were four targets inside.The partner next to the person who kicked the door also spoke a bunch of English, clearly pointing out the location of the four people.Four night walkers put four dark gun barrels in through the window, bang bang bang bang, four shots were fired, and four "ouch" came from the room.Now that there is a sound, the position is exposed more and more.The four people turned into four corpses in the blink of an eye.The night traveler went into the house to check carefully, and went to the wing room to check.

Not long after, there was only one living person left in this house.Although this person has a gun in his hand, he doesn't know how to use it.Hearing gunshots outside and the smell of blood intruding into his nose and mouth, he dared to hide in the bedding and shiver.Night Walker checked inside and out, and carefully collected the bullet casings he had dropped.Someone laughed and said, "It's a pity that this place is secluded. They don't even know that the Great Hermit lives in the city?"

After tidying up, a night traveler dug out the victim, tore off a piece of face covering his mouth, twisted his arms and tied him up.The first one took a sack from his body and put the person in it, carrying it on his back.Then they stopped caring about the dead bodies all over the room, and all the pedestrians climbed over the wall and left quickly.

The living creature was jolted on his back for a long time before he let it go.After another half an hour, the sack was opened.I saw dozens of candles burning brightly in the room, and Jia Cong smiled and sat on the chair in front of him and cupped his hands: "Mr. Mei, hello, we meet again."

The living mouth is Mr. Mei, a frail scholar.He was startled, and praised: "Mr. Jia is very capable!"

"Concession and concession." Jia Cong said, "I don't have any skills, but luck is better."

Mr. Mei smiled and said, "Those yamen servants in Chengdu Mansion are yours today, right? That area is remote and few people go there, let alone yamen servants."

"Yes~~" Jia Cong said triumphantly, "But even if you are suspicious, there is nothing you can do. Mr. Yuan is in your room. He has so much to say, you have to let him finish it, right? Even if you trick him, you have to It takes a lot of time."

Mr. Mei let out a long sigh: "I said those yamen servants were wrong, but they only said that no one followed Mr. Yuan."

Jia Cong smiled and said, "There are many kinds of stalking. People follow, and dogs follow. We didn't use people to follow this time, but dogs." Mr. Mei sighed again.
