Chapter 219 The Living Dead in Jinling City(2/2)

Fan Xiaodao looked solemn and nodded.

If this kind of thing spreads out, and the prince of the dynasty re-employs members of the Li family in Jinling, it will not only be a threat to Li Xiangwan, but will also have an adverse impact on public opinion.

"In this case, there will be more opportunities to meet in the future. We will talk in detail when we get together someday. It's getting late, so I'll take my leave now. See you later!"

After saying that, the figure flashed and Li Xiangwan disappeared into the night.

Fan Xiaodao walked out of Li's house and returned to Zhuque Street. The crowds on the long street pulled him into reality again. The experience just now and the conversation with Li Xiangwan seemed to have happened in a dream.

Where in life do we not meet?

When I returned to the yard, it was already late at night.

Fan Huowu was in the yard, holding his chin and looking at the moon in the sky in a daze.

Fan Xiaodao asked, "Aren't you going to sleep yet?"

Fan Huowu said, "I've had a good night's sleep. I just had a nightmare. I can't sleep. It's better to come out and look at the moon."

Fan Xiaodao asked, "What's so good about the moon?"

Fan Huowu said, "I don't know why, every time I see the moon, I feel particularly peaceful."

"Where's Tinker Bell?"

"Already asleep."

Seeing that she had no intention of sleeping, Fan Xiaodao sat down next to her and asked, "What nightmare did you have?"

Fan Huowu said, "I dreamed that in the wilderness, a group of people were chasing me, just like a hunter chasing prey. I ran away and cried, and my feet became heavier and heavier, and finally I couldn't run anymore. Fortunately, there were

A great hero descended from the sky and rescued me."

Fan Xiaodao smiled and said, "It can't be me, right?"

Fan Huowu said, "What you think is quite beautiful, but I made up the rest of it." She stood up and returned to the house. After a while, she retrieved a bottle of wine and said, "Drink some with me?"

"

"I'll get the wine glass."

Fan Huowu said, "The situation is bad!"

She raised her head and took a big sip, then handed the flask to him. Seeing that Fan Xiaodao didn't take it, she smiled and said, "Why, you dislike me?"

"No!" Fan Xiaodao laughed. His previous melancholy was swept away. He took the wine bottle and drank more than half of it in one sip. The wine was strong, and there seemed to be fire in his throat. Besides being spicy, he felt warm in his belly.

, shouted, "Happy!"

"Save some for me!"

You two took a sip, I took a sip, and drank up the entire bottle of wine.

Fan Xiaodao asked, "What are your plans after coming to Jinling?"

Fan Huowu said, "I don't know, I always feel like there is something waiting for me here."

Fan Xiaodao said, "Maybe it's your lover calling you, bringing back your memory."

Fan Huowu said, "I have a lover in Jinling, are you so happy?"

"Of course I'm happy for you."

Fan Huowu looked slightly disappointed, "I thought you liked me."

Fan Xiaodao smiled and said, "It's hard not to like a girl like you."

"for example?"

Fan Xiaodao said, "For example... a fierce personality, murderous, ah... stop, stop, a gentleman talks but doesn't use his hands!"

Fan Huowu's fist came towards her face like a gust of wind and rain. Fan Xiaodao grabbed her fist and pulled her into his arms. Fan Huowu, who had been showing his teeth and claws before, now curled up like a rabbit.

She remained motionless in his arms.

A gust of wind blew.

The night breeze was blowing, and I don't know whether it was the intoxicating spring air or the wine. The dancing fire under the moonlight was charming and especially bright. The cinnabar mole on the corner of the mouth was even more fascinating.

Fan Huowu gave up her resistance and closed her eyes.

Fan Xiaodao's head buzzed, and he couldn't help but kiss her.

Suddenly, a loud shout came from inside the house.

"Who dares to stand upright with a sword, but I am the hero Tinker Bell!"

The two suddenly woke up and quickly separated. When they returned to the house, they saw that Tinkerbell had kicked off the quilt and was lying flat on the bed, with half of her body about to fall off the bed.

Fan Huowu put him back in his place, covered him with a quilt, and glanced at Fan Xiaodao, "It's night, let's get some rest early."

Fan Xiaodao apologized slightly, "What happened just now..."

"Don't mention it again!"

"Good night!"

The two of them had their own concerns and went back to their respective rooms.

The sound of wind outside the window is like crying and complaining.



Early next morning.

The six-door yamen entrance was overcrowded.

More than a dozen people, old and young, dressed in sackcloth and wearing sackcloth and mourning, blocked the six doors. Some even held up banners with white budan characters, attracting countless people to watch.

"Kill for life!"

"Severely punish the murderer Fan Xiaodao!"

Fan Xiaodao came to the door, saw this scene, blocked the door and pulled up the banner. This scene seemed a bit familiar.

He frowned, "What's going on?"

Someone said, "People from the Jiang family came to make trouble, saying that the master ordered Jiang Shulong to be beaten to death, and they want to ask for an explanation!"

Master Song also came over after hearing the news, "Mrs. Jiang, didn't we make an agreement yesterday?"

When Mrs. Jiang heard this, she pointed at Master Song and said, "He beat our people to death and wants to spend money to settle the matter. Where is the law of heaven in this world? Where is the king's law?"

Someone shouted: "Kill a man to pay for his life!"

Master Song asked Fan Xiaodao, "How could this happen?"

Fan Xiaodao said, "Obviously, someone has given better conditions."

Master Song said, "You mean, someone instigated it?"

Fan Xiaodao said, "I really can't think of any other explanation."

"Who is it?"

Fan Xiaodao said, "It will take a while to see who will add fuel to the flames and who will fan the flames."

After a while, Tan Shifei rushed over after hearing the news. When he saw someone blocking the door, he became furious and said, "How dignified are you? Are you able to block the Yamen's door just by saying it is blocked?"

Mrs. Jiang stood up, pointed at Tan Shifei and said, "Are you in charge here?"

Tan Shifei glanced at Fan Xiaodao and said, "Master Fan is responsible."

"You are not in charge, get out of here, I want to talk to the person in charge!"

Tan Shifei retreated angrily.

Fan Xiaodao said, "Mrs. Jiang, what's the matter? Let's come in and talk?"

Mrs. Jiang said, "Go in? My husband went out on errands well yesterday morning. Someone came to tell me at night that he was beaten to death by you. If I go in, am I afraid that I will come out sideways again?"

Master Song said: "I'm afraid there is some misunderstanding!"

"Misunderstanding?" Mrs. Jiang roared, "Everyone is dead, so you just give me a misunderstanding?"

"Then what do you want to do with it?"

"How to deal with it?" Mrs. Jiang said, "My husband died in an unknown manner. Firstly, I don't want money, and secondly, I don't want land. I want an explanation. Since ancient times, murder must be paid for life. Whoever orders the killing will use his life."

Come and pay for it! If the Jinling Prefecture doesn’t care about you, I’ll sue the governor’s yamen. If the governor’s yamen doesn’t care about you, I’ll go to the capital and file a complaint!”

Seeing Fan Xiaodao's livid face, Tan Shifei showed a sneer on his lips, "You are too young to fight with me."

Outside, the crowd was furious, expressing support and demanding severe punishment for the murderer!

Fan Xiaodao took a step forward and said loudly, "Mrs. Jiang, dear fellow countrymen, Captain Jiang made a mistake yesterday. He was supposed to give a slight punishment, but he did not expect to be killed violently. Is there any problem with this matter? Yes! Not only is there,

And it’s extremely bad!”

As soon as he said this, everyone stopped talking and listened to his explanation.

Fan Xiaodao said, "Chief Lieutenant Jiang will not die in an unknown manner. Even if the Jiang family does not pursue this matter, the government will investigate and get to the bottom of it."

"How to check? Officials are just protecting each other!"
