Chapter 209 Qin Chuan Dou Family ([-])

In the bright hall, several men and women sat at one table.

One of the men with thick eyebrows and big eyes suddenly slapped a paper on the case: "You all know this rumor! Back then, I wondered how a foundation cultivator could be killed for no reason. This matter has nothing to do with his second wife."

"That's right. Now that I think about it carefully, there are many doubts about what happened back then. Uncle Bo'an was intercepted and killed. The other party obviously knew about his actions in advance and ambushed there."

"Uncle Bo'an escaped with serious injuries after a fight, but the other party ignored him and pursued him, determined to put him to death. How could this happen if there was no deep hatred? Not only have we never seen the murderer, but even The elders in the clan don't know, neither Qin Chuan cultivator, nor had any festivals before, after killing Uncle Bo'an, he disappeared, what is it if he didn't pay for murder?" Another man said

"What makes people even more suspicious is that after Uncle Bo'an died, the clan re-elected the head of the family. Since we have a large number of long-term householders, and Uncle Bo'an was born as a long-term householder, it should be Uncle Bolun who was elected. But The three parties unanimously chose Dou Wencai, not because Dou Wencai has been wooing them all the time, now it seems that he has a plan long ago, and the reason for attracting Sanfang is for this day."

"After Dou Wencai, the second wife, was elected, all the important properties were resettled by their second and third servants, and we were squeezed out."

"Whether it is tolerable or unbearable, we can't let Uncle Bo'an die in vain, we can't just expose this matter."

"Let's go to Uncle Bolun to make the decision. We must let them explain the matter clearly. If we are perfunctory, we will fight them to the death."

"Yes, let's go to Uncle Boren now,"

Everyone said something to each other, and the crowd was so angry that they left the house and left with their swords one after another.

...............

"Bo'an is strong and virtuous, the prodigal son of Wencai poured out his heart..." Dou Wencai read out gently with the book in his hand.

Dozens of men and women were bustling in the lower part of the hall, clearly divided into three factions.

Dou Bolun and Dou Bingzhi on both sides of Dou Wencai are present.

"The story is well written. You have all read this ballad, have you heard it! I never thought that a mere ballad would disturb my Dou family so much. I know some of you are talking about me behind my back, saying Honestly, I'm disappointed."

"It's not because you criticize and doubt me, but because you are disappointed that you can't even see such an obvious countermeasure, and even follow those people outside to make a fuss. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell at a glance that someone is deliberately spreading rumors against my Dou family. Come."

"It's really pathetic that you, as elite children, believe it to be true. My Dou family has fallen into such a state, and a broken rumor has made you so alienated." Dou Wencai finished reading the poem and said

Dou Bolun continued: "Bo'an died at the hands of Mozong's disciples, which was witnessed by many people at that time. There are people behind this matter who are fueling the flames, with the purpose of messing us up. Virtue, sincere cooperation, if there are people who talk behind the scenes in private, they will be dealt with according to family law and will never be lightly forgiven."

"It is necessary to find out who is behind the scenes and turn passive into active." Dou Bingzhi said

"Yingjie, how did you investigate this matter?"

"I only found a few ruffians. They said they were ordered by a man. I have been guarding for a few days, but I haven't seen that person." Dou Yingjie took out a portrait, which was drawn by those ruffians.

Dou Wencai took the portrait and glanced at it: "Make more rubbings, paste them everywhere in Qinchuan, and spread the word, whoever can provide information about this person will be rewarded with two thousand spirit stones. You continue to investigate this matter and find the person behind it. "

"Yes."

Dou Wencai warned the crowd again, waved his hand, and told the disciples to retreat.

"Bolun, I know there are a lot of discussions in the long room, and you still need to be more disciplined, especially at this time, we can't be chaotic inside!"

Dou Bolun said: "I have reprimanded them, now the most urgent task is to find the person behind the scenes."

"This series of things is not simple. That Xiao Mobai, and the man who spread the rumor this time all have mysterious origins. In my opinion, the target is not only on Qin Chuan and the others." Dou Bingzhi said
Dou Wencai frowned slightly: "What do you mean?"

"Both of these incidents happened after Tangning came. Including Dou Xiao's incident, there were three incidents in total. Isn't it a coincidence that so many incidents happened within two months?"

Dou Wencai looked solemn, his brows were furrowed, and he fell into deep thought.

Dou Bolun said: "The matter of Dou Xiao has nothing to do with him, don't all of Dou Xiao's letters make it clear?"

Dou Bingzhi said nothing.

...............

Outside Tangning's wooden house, Fang Yuan approached with a sword, went straight in and bowed, "Uncle, are you calling me?"

"Everyone knows the ballad, what's the reaction from the Dou family?"

"The family of Dou's parents are quite grievous. There are quite a few of them in our intelligence station who are all brothers of the eldest family. I have been insinuating, and I have listened to their private discussions. I learned that they are very dissatisfied. I wanted to ask the second room for an explanation, but was rejected. Dou Bolun pressed down."

"The Dou family is also doing their best to investigate this matter. Headed by Dou Yingjie, several disciples of the Dou family followed the people who spread the rumors and caught the rogue in the market. Yesterday, the Dou family released the news. Those who can provide clues will be rewarded two times." Qian Lingshi, it seems that they are a little anxious."

Tangning nodded slightly, and the Dou family's reaction was expected: "You didn't expose it, did you?"

"No, the portrait they posted is the human skin mask I'm wearing."

"Well, it's time to close the net. The Dou family spread the news and offered rewards, but they didn't come to me immediately. It seems that they have suspected me. If they don't close the net, they may run away." Tang Ning pondered. Helpless, if Xiao Mobai hadn't intervened, he wouldn't be in such a hurry, and he wouldn't be suspected by the Dou family.

"Uncle please give me instructions."

"Isn't Dou Yingjie looking for you everywhere? Let's lure him out."

"Yes, the disciple understands."

Fangyuan exited the wooden house, put on the human skin mask, and Yu Feijian came to a dilapidated room, where a man with sly eyebrows was pulling the middle-aged lady, stroking her body with his hands, and gradually removing her clothes.

"What are you doing, be careful that the old guy comes back." The woman scolded softly.

"Don't worry, he went to gamble, and he won't come back for a while!" The man said, moving his hands up and down, removing his clothes one by one.

"Cough, cough, cough." There was a cough outside the door, and the two people in the room immediately changed their colors and looked at each other. The woman hurriedly put on her clothes, and said softly, "Quick... hurry up."

The man picked up his clothes, climbed over the wall through the back door, and saw a man leaning against the corner of the wall, as if waiting for him.

"Lao Zhang, do you still recognize me?"

Zhang Laosi took a closer look: "Who are you?"

"You don't need to know who I am, I just want you to do something for me." The man said, reaching out and throwing him a bag of silver taels.

Zhang Laosi took the silver taels, took a look, and saw that there were thirty taels of silver, and he was overjoyed: "What's the matter, just talk about it."

"Find a group of people to help me spread a word. Within three days, I want everyone in the entire county to know."

"What are you talking about?"

"Bo'an is strong and virtuous, a literary wolf will take his heart out..."

Zhang Laosi was startled, and said with a smile: "Okay, no problem."

"I'll come back to you in three days. I have something else to do." Fang Yuan said, turned around and left.

Seeing him go far away, Zhang Laosi quickly walked eastward, and after walking for more than half an hour, he came to an attic.

There are a sea of ​​people inside, and the shouts are overwhelming. There are twenty large tables in the whole hall, and there are more than ten or twenty people in front of each table, some with red eyes, some with eyes closed from ear to ear, or yelling. This is the county. The most famous casino in the country.

Zhang Laosi walked through the hall and came to the corner of the stairs. He was about to go upstairs when he was stopped by a big man in Tsing Yi.

"I said Zhang Laosi, you are also a regular customer, you don't understand the rules, do you! You also want to go to the second floor to play?" the man said
Zhang Laosi was full of smiles: "Brother Hu, I have something to see Shopkeeper Wang, please tell me."

"You want to see Shopkeeper Wang? So you can meet Shopkeeper Wang just as you say? Go, go, don't make trouble for me here." The man in Tsing Yi pushed him out.

"I'm really in a hurry. I know where Master Dou is offering a reward." Zhang Lao Si hurriedly said
"Is what you said true?"

"It's true."

"Follow me." The man in Tsing Yi led him up to the second floor.

Zhang Laosi had never been here before, and he saw that the layout was completely different from that downstairs. The entire hall on the second floor was divided into dozens of private rooms, and the people who came and went were all dressed in brocade and satin. Holding the graceful woman on the bed, she looks very happy.

The two crossed the hall on the second floor and went up to the third floor.The man in Tsing Yi stepped forward and whispered something to the man guarding here, and the man led the two of them into a luxuriously decorated room.

"What's the matter?" A fat man with big ears on the main seat asked arrogantly
"Shopkeeper, this person's name is Zhang Lao Si, he said he knows where the person who is offering a reward to Lord Dou is." The man in Tsing Yi said
"What?" The fat man's complexion changed: "You really know? Where is he, come quickly."

"Yes. Just half an hour ago, I was..." Zhang Laosi said truthfully: "I know this is the person Master Dou is looking for, so I dare not delay and report to you immediately."

The fat man took out a portrait from the side cabinet: "Look carefully, but this person?"

Zhang Laosi took a closer look: "That's right, it's this person."

"Okay." The fat man patted him heavily on the shoulder: "You have made great contributions, and I will not treat you badly. Now follow me to Lord Dou's mansion, and tell him the old man, you all prepare your sedan chair and go to Lord Dou's mansion."

"Yes." The man in Tsing Yi replied

…………

In Feilong Mountain, Dou Yingjie was meditating and practicing in a quiet room. A man pushed open the stone door and walked straight in. "Brother Jie, there is news about the rumor spreader."

"Oh? It finally appeared, where is it?" Dou Yingjie opened his eyes
"It's the news from Dou Shu that the person is in his house."

"Let's go and have a look." Dou Yingjie said, leaving the quiet room, and the two of them walked for an hour with their imperial artifacts, and came to a mansion in the county.

A bearded man was waiting in front of the mansion gate.
