After hearing Xu Zhiwei's words, Liu Tiansheng couldn't help frowning, "Xu Zhiwei, are you saying that Zhang Sanqing used a fake name?" ”

Xu Zhiwei smiled bitterly and shook his head, "This is what I'm most worried about, if Zhang Sanqing uses a fake name and the address is also fake, then we will go to Zhangjiazhuang this time, I'm afraid we won't get anything." ”

Liu Tiansheng sat there stunned for a while before sighing, "Xu Zhiwei, don't worry about it first, let's go and see if we can find clues about Zhang Sanqing, if you can't find it, it's not too late for you to worry." ”

……

Zhangjiazhuang is indeed much larger than Zhangjiacun, and the road that leads up from the outside is the central road of Zhangjiazhuang, which has been extending from this end outside the village to that end, and finally, I don't know where it goes.

As soon as the carriage entered Zhangjiazhuang, Lao Li stopped the carriage, turned his head to look at Liu Tiansheng and Xu Zhiwei, and asked with a smile, "Two poor masters, how do you two want to check?" ”

Hearing Lao Li's question, Xu Zhiwei frowned and turned his head to look at Liu Tiansheng, "Liu Tiansheng, you say, where should we check?" ”

Liu Tiansheng frowned and pondered for a moment before he said with a smile, "Why don't we go to the village chief according to the original plan, I think he should know who is in Zhangjiazhuang, right?" ”

After hearing Liu Tiansheng's words, Lao Li saw that Xu Zhiwei also nodded, and immediately raised his horsewhip.

Syllable!

The whip flipped in the air and exploded with a crisp sound, and the horse pulling the cart was frightened and immediately moved forward.

The carriage slowly moved along the street, and Lao Li said with a smile while driving the carriage, "The two poor masters, the village chief's house in Zhangjiazhuang, I have been here once, and it is at the south end of the village, and it is easy to find." ”

With Lao Li's voice, it didn't take long for the carriage to turn into a north-south street.

As soon as he turned the corner, Lao Li raised his horsewhip, pointed to a big mansion in front of him, and said with a smile, "Two poor masters, you see, that is the village chief's house." ”

Speaking of this, Lao Li's tone paused, but then, he didn't wait for Liu Tiansheng and Xu Zhiwei to answer his words, and continued to speak to himself.

"Two poor masters, you are lucky, the last time I delivered goods for the village chief, it was because they bought too many things, and their own carriage couldn't be loaded, and I happened to pass by again, so I ran away.

Otherwise, I wouldn't know the way. ”

As he spoke, the carriage had already arrived at the door of the mansion that Lao Li was pointing to.

Lao Li stopped the carriage by the side, "The two poor masters, here, you two have entered, I will wait for you here!" ”

Liu Tiansheng and Xu Zhiwei jumped out of the carriage, came to the door, reached out and lifted the knocker and knocked.

"Is anyone home?"

It didn't take long for footsteps to come from inside the door, and soon, the door was opened from the inside, and a middle-aged woman poked her head out of the door, and was about to speak, but she couldn't help but be startled when she saw that it was two catchers.

Liu Tiansheng didn't wait for the middle-aged woman to speak, so he preemptively asked, "Is the village chief at home, we have something to look for him?" ”

The middle-aged woman nodded hurriedly, "Yes, the village chief is at home, you wait a minute, I'll go and tell him." ”

After speaking, the middle-aged woman didn't wait for Liu Tiansheng to speak, and hurriedly turned away.

It didn't take long for a fat old man in gorgeous clothes to come out of the courtyard.

"The two poor masters, sometimes welcome from afar, and please forgive your sins."

As the old man spoke, he arched his hand to the two.

Liu Tiansheng waved his hand hurriedly, "The village chief is not polite, we are too disturbed and rude." ”

The old man waved his hand, "Two poor masters, it's inconvenient to talk here, let's go into the house and talk?" ”

Liu Tiansheng thought for a while, and then asked with a smile, "Village chief, I want to ask, is there a person named Zhang Sanqing in Zhangjiazhuang?" ”

"Zhang Sanqing?"

Hearing this name, the village chief was stunned for a moment, looked at Liu Tiansheng with some doubts, and asked tentatively, "Two poor masters, do you have anything to do with Zhang Sanqing?" ”

Hearing this, Xu Zhiwei on the side hurriedly said, "Village Chief, we just want to ask if there is such a person, you just need to answer!" ”

Seeing that the two refused to speak, the village chief nodded and said slowly, "Zhang Sanqing, we do have a person named Zhang Sanqing here, but he passed away last year, is there any misunderstanding when you look for him now?" ”

"Passed away?"

Although Liu Tiansheng and Xu Zhiwei had expected it in their hearts, they couldn't help but be taken aback when they heard the news.

Liu Tiansheng settled down and asked quickly, "Village Chief, are you mistaken?" Is Zhang Sanqing really gone? ”

Hearing Liu Tiansheng's question, the village chief smiled bitterly and nodded, "Two poor masters, how can I be mistaken, Zhang Sanqing is the elder brother, his name is Zhang Sanqing, and the old man's name is Zhang Sanqiang, and he is his clan brother."

When he passed away, how could he be wrong when he still went. ”

Hearing Zhang Sanqiang's answer, Xu Zhiwei hurriedly asked, "Village Chief, is there only one person named Zhang Sanqing in Zhangjiazhuang?" ”

Zhang Sanqiang nodded, "In a village, how can it be the same name, so this is absolutely impossible." ”

Liu Tiansheng sighed, "Village chief, since Zhang Sanqing is no longer there, we want to go to his house to have a look, and I hope the village chief can tell us the address of his house." ”

Hearing Liu Tiansheng's words, Zhang Sanqiang nodded, "Zhang Sanqing's home is easy to find, two poor masters, you just need to walk along this north-south street, go north, and come to the end, the house on the left outside the village is Zhang Sanqing's home." ”

Hearing Zhang Sanqiang's guidance, Liu Tiansheng hurriedly hugged his fists, "Then thank you to the village chief, let's go and have a look?" ”

Zhang Sanqiang nodded, and suddenly lowered his voice and asked, "Two poor masters, can you tell the old man, do you have anything to do with Zhang Sanqing?" ”

Hearing Zhang Sanqiang's question, Liu Tiansheng was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand, "It's not a big deal, I just have a few words I want to ask." ”

……

Liu Tiansheng and Xu Zhiwei left Zhang Sanqiang's house, went out, got into Lao Li's carriage, and the three of them rushed all the way to the north.

Lao Li listened to Xu Zhiwei's instructions while driving the carriage forward, and it didn't take long for the carriage to come to the south of Zhangjiazhuang.

Lao Li parked the carriage at the end of the road, turned his head to look, and muttered, "The house on the left, alas, should be that one!" ”

Liu Tiansheng looked at Lao Li's hand and saw the courtyard he was pointing to.

Because it is in the outermost part of Zhangjiazhuang, this house is not small, but, perhaps because no one has repaired it, it looks very dilapidated.

Liu Tiansheng and Xu Zhiwei jumped out of the carriage, came to the door of this courtyard, reached out and picked up the knocker, and just knocked for the first time, the door slowly opened inward.

It turned out that the gate was not bolted inside, but only hidden.

"Is anyone home?"

Liu Tiansheng shouted into the courtyard and leaned into the courtyard.

"Who!" Reading the Book House

A voice came from the courtyard, and then an old lady with a wrinkled face came out of the courtyard.

"Who are you looking for?"

Seeing the old lady who came out, Liu Tiansheng hurriedly arched his hand and asked with a smile, "Old lady, we want to ask, is this Zhang Sanqing's home?" ”

Hearing Liu Tiansheng's question, the old lady was stunned for a moment, and asked with some confusion, "Who are you?" ”

Hearing the old lady's question, Liu Tiansheng was also stunned, they were all wearing the clothes in the yamen, no matter where they went, they didn't need to speak, others knew that they were here to do something, and no one had asked like this.

At this moment, a middle-aged man walked out of the house quickly, holding the old lady's arm, turned his head to look at Liu Tiansheng, and said apologetically, "Two poor masters, my aunt's eyes are not good, don't blame you!" ”

After hearing the middle-aged man's words, Liu Tiansheng understood, and waved his hand hurriedly, "It's nothing, we came here just to ask something!" ”

The middle-aged man frowned, "Two poor masters, if you have something to say, just hurry up and ask, we still have a lot of things to do?" ”

Liu Tiansheng nodded and asked, "This is Zhang Sanqing's home, right?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "Yes, but my uncle is no longer there." ”

Hearing the title of the middle-aged man, Liu Tiansheng was a little strange, "Could it be that you are Zhang Sanqing's nephew?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "Yes." ”

Liu Tiansheng stretched out his hand and pointed at the old lady, "Then who is this?" ”

The middle-aged man replied, "My aunt! ”

Asked this, Liu Tiansheng suddenly didn't know what to ask?

The old lady is Zhang Sanqing's wife, and the middle-aged man is Zhang Sanqing's nephew.

The most important thing is that Zhang Sanqing is no longer there.

So, who will be the Zhang Sanqing they are looking for?

Thinking of this, Liu Tiansheng asked with a smile, "Then let me ask you, does your uncle have children?" ”

Hearing Liu Tiansheng's question, a trace of anger appeared on the middle-aged man's face, "Two poor masters, don't mention that evil obstacle, if it weren't for him, how could my aunt's eyes be ......, alas!" ”

Hearing this, Liu Tiansheng's heart suddenly moved, and he asked quickly, "Your uncle has a son?" ”

The middle-aged man nodded, "Yes, but I haven't been back for a long time." ”

Hearing this question, the old lady also suddenly spoke, "Two poor masters, do you know where my son is?" ”

Speaking of this, the old lady's tone paused, but then, she didn't wait for Liu Tiansheng to answer her words, so she continued to speak to herself.

"Two poor masters, if you know, let him come back quickly, and tell me that I miss him."

The middle-aged man was a little annoyed, "Auntie, what else do you want him to do to you like this?" ”

Listening to the two of them talking, Xu Zhiwei on the side suddenly asked, "Old lady, what does your son look like, how old is he, can you tell us, maybe, we can find it for you?" ”

Hearing Xu Zhiwei's question, the old lady hurriedly nodded, "Okay, I'll ......." ”

As soon as the old lady's words came to this, she was interrupted by Xu Zhiwei waving his hand, "Old lady, don't say it yet, we haven't seen your son, and it's useless for you to say it."

Wait a minute, I'll go find someone who may have seen your son, and you tell him that maybe you will find your son." ”

After speaking, Xu Zhiwei turned around and beckoned to Lao Li not far away, and said loudly, "Lao Li, come here and listen?" ”

Hearing Xu Zhiwei's greeting, Lao Li hurriedly jumped out of the carriage, walked quickly to everyone, and asked with a smile, "Two poor masters, what do you let the villain listen to?" ”

Xu Zhiwei lowered his voice and said, "Lao Li, you have seen Zhang Sanqing, wait a minute, the old lady said that her son's appearance, you can check it and see if it is a person." ”

After saying this, Xu Zhiwei turned his head to look at the old lady and said with a smile, "Old man, now you can speak." ”

Hearing Xu Zhiwei let her say, the old lady hurriedly said, "My son, he is very strong, and his height is about ...... my nephew." ”

Lao Li on the side listened to the old lady's words and pondered in his heart.

After the old lady's words were finished, Lao Li asked, "Old lady, how old is my son?" ”

When the old lady heard Lao Li's question, she immediately replied, "My son is 26 years old this year!" ”

Hearing this age, Lao Li shook his head with a wry smile, and turned his head to look at Xu Zhiwei, "Poor master, it still doesn't seem right, no matter what other aspects are, even this age is not right!" ”

Speaking of this, Lao Li's tone paused before continuing, "Zhang Sanqing's age is about 30 years old, but the old lady's son is only 26 years old, something is wrong. ”

After hearing Lao Li's words, Xu Zhiwei frowned, "Lao Li, apart from age, can you match up somewhere else?" ”

Lao Li smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Two poor masters, how can you say this, the old lady said that the height is about the same as his nephew, and this point can still be matched."

But, you see, there are too many of his nephews' heights. ”

Lao Li stretched out his finger and pointed at Xu Zhiwei, then at Liu Tiansheng, and said with a wry smile, "You see, the height of several of us is about the same height as the old lady's nephew, so you can't judge anything based on this alone."

And the looks, described by the old lady, although a little close, but I don't feel like it yet. ”

Hearing Lao Li's words, Xu Zhiwei asked with some doubts, "What is it?" ”

Lao Li frowned and thought about it, and then said slowly, "For example, the old lady said that her son's eyes are big, but Zhang Sanqing's eyes are not too big, which is not the same, and there are other aspects, the feeling is not very different, so I think that the old lady's son should not be Zhang Sanqing." ”

"Not Zhang Sanqing?"

Hearing Lao Li's answer, Xu Zhiwei was stunned, he thought that the old lady's son should be Zhang Sanqing, but he never expected that it was not?

Seeing that Xu Zhiwei didn't speak, the old lady hurriedly stretched out her hand and asked, "Second master, have you seen my son, do you know where he lives?" ”

Hearing the old lady's words, Xu Zhiwei shook his head with a wry smile, "Old lady, I thought that the person we met was your son, but unfortunately it wasn't. ”

Liu Tiansheng saw the disappointed expression on the old lady's face, and hurriedly comforted, "Old lady, don't worry, someone as old as your son, he will come back himself."

Old lady, after we have finished our words, we will leave first. ”

After Liu Tiansheng finished saying this, he raised his head and glanced at the middle-aged man who was supporting the old lady, and then took Xu Zhiwei and Lao Li out of the courtyard and came to the carriage.

Xu Zhiwei sat on the carriage and said with a wry smile, "Liu Tiansheng, it's too bad now, if we can't find Zhang Sanqing, our clues will all be broken." ”

Liu Tiansheng turned his head to look at Lao Li and asked with a straight face, "Lao Li, are you sure that Zhang Sanqing is not the son of the old lady?" ”

Hearing Liu Tiansheng's question, Lao Li smiled bitterly and nodded, "Second poor master, if the old lady's son is really what she said, then it must not be!" ”
