The Happy Life of Small Officials in Northern Song Dynasty

That night, Brother Jin didn't go back, but stayed in the brothel.

In the middle of the night, Su Jin and Zhao Hu staggered out of the house, and were sent to the carriage by the women to bid farewell.

Three black shadows flashed out of the shadows at the corner of the street. Seeing Su Jin's carriage disappear, the tall and tall person whispered softly: "Then Su Jin must have had a jehu with Brother Jin. If things have changed, you must report to the master immediately." .”

Another person said: "Didn't the master say that? If you find out that Brother Jin has changed, kill him immediately and make a theory. Why don't we rush in and find that guy and kill him?"

The tall man waved his hand and said: "No, since this fellow Su Jin is in custody with Jin Geer, but he hasn't taken him into custody, it means that Jin Geer hasn't revealed his secrets yet, we can't act rashly, it's better to ask the master to show us; besides, How dare you guarantee that there are no Su Jin people around here? Didn’t we see dozens of Su Jin’s subordinates outside the Shijiazhai? They have been watching for several days, how can Jin Geer be alone in the brothel at this moment without sending him? Followed by people?" [

The two people next to him both nodded and said: "Brother's words are justified."

The tall man said: "You two are staring here, I will go back and ask the master for instructions, don't act rashly, even if you do it, there are too many people in this place, so it's not a place to do it."

The two agreed in unison, and bowed their hands in salute. The tall man looked around and ran into the darkness, before disappearing at the end of the side street.

……

When Su Jin's carriage reached the corner of the street, Zhao Hu lightly jumped out of the carriage and turned back. In the backyard of the brothel, Yinger had already opened the small door and was waiting. Zhao Hu followed Yinger to the room where Jin Geer was resting. Next door, He Yi was leaning on the bed; Su Jin told him to protect Jin Geer well tonight, and also to prevent Jin Geer from breaking his promise and escaping and hiding.

After one night, early in the morning, Jin Geer called a carriage from the garden and drove home. At the same time, the stalkers sent by Su Jin, who had been guarding around Shijie Mansion, also evacuated with great fanfare. They are all under the eyes of pairs of hungry wolves watching from the dark.

Last night, Xia Song, who heard the news, immediately issued an order to kill Jin Geer, but asked to wait for a good opportunity to start. Although Su Jin's sentries were all evacuated, it seemed that Jin Geer did not show any flaws, but Xia Song She felt more and more that it was wrong to leave this disaster behind. Sooner or later, Su Jin would think of this person, and killing his eloquence would be the end of it all.

And the method of doing it must not be blatant killing, but to make Jin Geer disappear without anyone noticing, creating a sign that he left the Shi family on his own, so that those who have doubts about this case will not feel abrupt and embarrassing. suspicious.

Just after the hour, the figure of Jin Geer who had returned to the Shifu appeared sneakily at the back door. He changed his clothes, dressed up as a servant in a green coat and a small hat, and his face was smeared with unknown things to make his complexion dark. He was dark, but even so, he did not escape the sharp eyes of Xia Song's men.

When Jin Geer quietly headed north with a heavy package on his back, seven or eight people who looked like ordinary street vendors followed behind.

The stalkers were very experienced, and one of them surpassed Jin Geer and walked in front to see if there was any suspicious person. The seven people behind him procrastinated for hundreds of steps, just to see if there were other suspicious people around; Su Jin's people evacuated, but under Xia Song's ten thousand warnings, they were still more careful, because even the owner Xia Song said that this Su Jin was extremely cunning, and he must not be taken lightly.

Jin Ge'er hurriedly walked on Beimen Street, turned a few forks, bypassed the back wall of Kaifeng Mansion, and traveled northward for five or six miles before stepping into the wilderness again; Pedestrians gradually became less and less, and the village was hidden among green trees and thorns. When Wu Qi Temple was in sight, from a distance, it seemed that Jin Geer was the only one left in a few miles.

The wasteland outside Wuqi Temple was originally the site of the cemetery in the city. In Bianliang City with a population of one million, people died almost every day, and the cemetery gradually expanded. Gradually, the area around Wuqi Temple became a place for pedestrians to stop. Trees grow, very deserted and lonely.

From a distance, several Xiafu masters who were dotted with Jin Geer followed through the dry trees and bushes by the roadside. They had already gathered together, and the disguised baskets, vegetables, etc. had been thrown to nowhere. All of them are shining steel knives.

"Brother, this kid knows how to pick a place, and he actually ran here. After bringing him back and killing him, we need to spend a lot of time, just bury him on the spot."

"Hey, I'm afraid you don't know. His money is hidden here. This kid is very smart. He dug a grave and hid the money here. If he wasn't afraid of him jumping over the wall in a hurry, I would have planed it out and gone to work. Today It can be taken away in a legitimate way, and each of us brothers can share dozens of taels."

"Hey, that's a good relationship. Let's catch up and do it. This is a good place to do it."

"Don't panic, when he is digging money, let's quietly go up and chop it up and finish the job. The hole he dug out just buried himself, and it saves us from working hard."

"Brother is still shrewd. It is really not easy to dig a hole to bury people in cold weather. Look, that kid has turned into a side road." [

In the distance, Jin Geer glanced here and there for a few moments, then turned around and got into the side road, which was leading to the cemetery outside the Wu Qi Temple.

"Speed ​​up, let's outflank the past." The tall brother waved,

Everyone nodded in agreement, speeding up wrestling to keep up, and slowly outflanking the cemetery along the waist-deep grass on both sides of the fork.

Brother Jin's heart was beating like a drum. In fact, he had already felt that someone was following him, but he still didn't know whether these people were under Su Jin's subordinates or the people behind the scenes who wanted to kill him, but what Su Jin told him last night It is very clear that after staying in the brothel for one night, he pretended to be sneaking away early the next morning, and came to dig money outside the Wuqi Temple in Beicheng; He ordered to take out the shovel and dig the soil.

A big hole was dug out of the grave, Jin Geer didn't know whether to continue digging, but he heard the rustling of the grass on both sides, and then eight big men quietly appeared in front of him. Holding a steel knife in his hand, he looked at himself with a grim smile.

Jin Geer was shocked and asked, "Masters, this is..."

The tall thug took a step forward and smiled, "Master Jin is so forgetful, don't you remember me?"

Jin Geer immediately recognized this person as the contact person who went to the old Gu's house to buy calligraphy and painting seals, and hurriedly cupped his hands and said: "This good man, I didn't say anything, everything was according to your orders, and I kept my mouth shut."

The tall man said with a smile: "You did a good job. You did not inform others according to the agreement, but...you don't go to others to inform others, but they find you. I am also very sorry. If you want to blame, don't blame me. It's because Su Jin's nose is so sharp that he sniffed at you."

Brother Jin said in surprise: "I didn't tell him anything, on the contrary, I tricked him into believing that I was involved in this matter."

The tall man said: "No way, my master gave an order, he can't take this risk, so you must shut up forever."

Jin Ge'er said: "The villain will go away and go to a place where no one can find him. He will never let that Su Jin see the villain again. I beg the heroes to spare their lives."

The thugs laughed hahahaha, the tall man laughed and said, "Stop talking nonsense, you have lived a happy life for a few days, and you have hugged dozens of fans from the brothels, and death is worth it , why bother to be too nostalgic, have fun, wipe your neck clean, man will give you a good time."

Jin Geer suddenly ran wildly and shouted: "Help, Master Su, help."

All the thugs laughed and said: "This kid has lost his mind and gone crazy, Mr. Su? Where did Mr. Su come from? He also said that he didn't confess to Su Jin, and now he has revealed himself."

The tall man waved his hand and said: "Stop talking nonsense with him, just do him a clean job, it's cold, let's go back and drink a few cups to warm up our bodies, this kid has been tossing us so hard."

The crowd chased after them even claiming that they were on foot, and Brother Najin panicked and ran straight towards Wuqi Temple, the tall man laughed and shouted: "It's a dead end, there is a pond in the southeast of the temple, no wonder you didn't remind you. "

The thugs also laughed and said: "He wanted to jump into the river to commit suicide, so that would save the man's hands and feet."

Jin Geer pretended he hadn't heard of it, and ran towards the temple with his head buried, and soon arrived in front of the dilapidated temple gate. The footsteps caught up with Jin Geer a moment before he set foot on the temple gate, and he stretched out his big hand like a cattail fan to grab Jin Geer's nape of the neck, and with a single lift, he lifted Jin Geer into the air.

All the thugs ran behind and cheered loudly: "It's still the big brother's kung fu, the whole goshawk fights the rabbit, and it's neat."

Before the sound of cheering came to an end, the big man stood still holding Jin Ge'er. What was even more unbelievable was that Jin Ge'er broke free from his hand, fell to the ground, got up and slipped into the temple.

Everyone was puzzled, and rushed to ask questions, but saw that their elder brother was dumbfounded and did not answer. Some people looked around and screamed in fright, pointing to the tall man's chest, unable to speak. [

Everyone rushed forward to take a look, and suddenly their spirits flew away, and they were so shocked that they flew away like birds and beasts.
