[Shen Wang] Banana deer

Wang Lianhua went around in the forest for a few times, she was sure she had escaped Shen Lang before turning back to Luoyang City.

The first showers came, and the dark blue night hung low.

As soon as Wang Lianhua entered the east gate of Luoyang City, she turned into a dark alley, turned left and right several times, walked to a dark red narrow gate, and knocked lightly a few times.

After a while, the narrow door creaked open, and a head stuck out, it was a young and beautiful girl, who respectfully called the young master, and welcomed Wang Lianhua in.

After entering the narrow gate, it is a completely different world.

As soon as you enter the spacious and exquisite courtyard, you will see a flower garden. Even though it is late autumn, it has been well-manicured to have luxuriant branches and colorful flowers.Around the flower garden is a lotus pond. All the dead stems of the lotus have been removed, leaving only a clean and clear pool.

There is an octagonal water pavilion on the pool, with flying eaves and fluttering curtains.Inside sat a beautiful and moving woman, dressed in a white shirt, with a glamorous demeanor, sitting at a table in the waterside pavilion and cleaning a guqin.

Seeing Wang Lianhua walk in, a charming smile appeared on her delicate face, flying towards Wang Lianhua like a white dove.

But Wang Lianhua didn't seem to see the beautiful woman at all, without saying a word, with a gloomy face, she walked towards a house behind the waterside pavilion without squinting.

The woman watched Wang Lianhua walk into the room, then smiled, her expression turned cold immediately.

Wang Lianhua lit a candle.He took out a long and thin white cloth package from his arms, and after unpacking it, it turned out to be a scroll.

Wang Lianhua stared at the slender scroll with an extremely rare serious expression, rubbed it lightly several times, and then carefully spread it out.

The picture scroll unfolded slowly, and there was a red wall with flying eaves, surrounded by dangerous rocks and green trees, and a zigzag path stretched out in the picture. In the middle of the night when the moon was sparse, three beautiful women, Or behind dangerous rocks, or under cornices, or on the road, although their movements are different, their expressions are generally gloomy and resentful.

How could the painting in front of me be Qianli Jiangxue?

Wang Lianhua stared blankly, and stretched out her fingertips to caress the woman standing in the path, lingering, as if her whole person had merged into the painting, forgetting everything around her.

The dim candlelight danced, and the slender and thin figure was reflected on the wall, trembling, lonely and desolate.

He lowered his head and stared at the scroll, and when he raised his head after a long time, his eyes were wet, and two lines of tears fell from the corners of his eyes.

The next day, as soon as Xu Changshui arrived at the Yamen, he saw three uninvited guests dressed as guards, sitting proudly in the lobby. The tea on the side table was the most fragrant Dahongpao in the county Yamen. Standing aside, answering from time to time, also submissive.

Xu Changshui knew that the leader was the guard of Prince Xie's mansion, probably a small leader.Now that Prince Xie's mansion is so powerful, even a small guard, not to mention himself, even the county magistrate can't afford to offend.

At midnight last night, when Xu Changshui received a report and rushed to Prince Xie's mansion to understand the case, he was the one who provided the most and clearest clues among the witnesses.But what impressed Xu Changshui deeply was his domineering attitude and the superior posture he often put on.

Xu Changshui was still outside the lobby, so he felt uncomfortable and hesitated a little.

The county magistrate Chen had seen him and called his name loudly.

Xu Changshui had no choice but to suppress his unhappiness and walked in front of County Magistrate Chen.

County magistrate Chen pointed to Xu Changshui, and said to the leader of the guards with a smile on his face: "This is Xu Changshui who is in charge of the case. If you have any questions, guard Song can ask him specifically."

The guard surnamed Song looked him around coldly, and said coldly, "Are you the famous arrester Xu Changshui from Luoyang?"

Xu Changshui said coldly: "Exactly."

Song guard said: "Tell me, what progress has been made and when will the prince's painting be recovered?"

Xu Changshui's face was stiff, expressionless, "I found the whereabouts of the thief yesterday, but I couldn't take him down."

The Song guard slapped the table and got up angrily: "Are you an idiot? You can't take down the prince's most beloved painting after seeing it. It's been almost a day since you lost it. If you make the prince angry and break your body, you can afford it."

Xu Changshui raised his head and stared at him fearlessly, his eyes were as cold as needles, "That thief's martial arts are so high that even the guard Song himself would not be able to take him down." Just to be on the safe side, he didn't want to tell Wang Lianhua the name.

"There are rumors in Luoyang that Xu Butou is upright and has great martial arts skills. It seems that his reputation is in vain." Song Guard's eyes were also radiant.

The eyes of the two met, almost sparks.

"The villain really deserves his name, so please ask Guard Song for advice."

Seeing that Xu Changshui's fiery temper was about to explode, County Magistrate Chen hurriedly pushed him away, and smiled apologetically at Guard Song, "He's a rough man and doesn't know the rules. Guard Song shouldn't argue with him. I'll definitely step up and get him back as soon as possible." The two paintings lost by the prince."

two?Xu Changshui was very suspicious. Wasn't the "Snow Picture of a Thousand Miles of Rivers" that was lost?Why did it become two again?

Guard Song snorted coldly, "I'll give you three days, if you can't find the painting, you'll be punished by your lord." After finishing his sentence, he called two of his subordinates and left the yamen.

As soon as Song Shiwei and his party left, Xu Changshui asked, "Magistrate Chen, why are there two lost paintings again?"

County magistrate Chen waved his hands and sighed: "It doesn't matter if it's one or two, the most urgent thing is to find the thief."

"Aside from "A Thousand Miles of River Snow Picture", what is the other one?"

"The other one is not a famous painting. It is nothing compared to "A Thousand Miles of River Snow". The prince doesn't care about it, so it doesn't matter if you don't mention it. The most urgent thing now is to find "A Thousand Miles of River Snow". Do you have a clue now?"

Xu Changshui said: "Magistrate Chen, don't worry, I already have clues to the thief."

County magistrate Chen held Xu Changshui's hand tightly, and said in a mournful voice, "Now Prince Xie's mansion has imposed a three-day deadline, arresting Xu, everything depends on you."

Xu Changshui bowed solemnly and said, "This subordinate will definitely do his best."

When Xu Changshui left the county office, he felt that the burden on his body suddenly became heavier.He knew in his heart that if he wanted to capture Wang Lianhua and retrieve the scroll with his own strength, there was little chance of winning.I had to walk aimlessly on the street.

Xu Changshui is a bachelor, his parents have left, and he has not yet married. One person can eat enough for the whole family.Such a person has nothing to rely on spiritually except work.

Xu Changshui walked along the East Street for a while, and suddenly smelled the aroma of food wafting from the restaurant on the street. Just now, he remembered that it was lunch time, so he went in, found an empty table and sat down, ordered a few side dishes, his thoughts were still immersed in the During the case, Zhengjue was confused and incomprehensible, and suddenly a hearty laughter came to his ears, causing everyone to look up.

But I saw three people walking into the store, the leader was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, eight feet long, with a short knife without a sheath in his waist, and a shiny wine gourd in his hand.But those bright and clear cat-like eyes, and the unrestrained and heroic spirit in his expression made him shine with brilliance, making it impossible to underestimate him.

The three sat down at the table next to Xu Changshui, ordered food, ordered wine, and began to eat and drink.

I only heard one of them say to the thick-browed and big-eyed man: "Boss Xiong, now we have Mr. Shen's whereabouts, what should we do next?"

The bear boss sighed: "My brother is free and easy by nature, but he has a lot of twists and turns in the love word. He left quietly and disappeared for more than a year. No one knows what he is thinking. Qi Qi has always been With a stubborn personality, you have to find him even in the ends of the world. Since I have promised to find Shen Lang for her, I should try my best to do it."

The little brother said again: "But I heard that Shen Lang's martial arts are superb, Boss Xiong is sure to take him down."

Xiong Lao said: "Since he and I are brothers, we should persuade him with kind words, besides, how could he be ruthless to Qi Qi? If he knew that for more than a year, Qi Qi was worried about him all day long, didn't think about eating and drinking, and couldn't do anything. So you can run faster than me." Then he laughed loudly, as if he was sure about the matter.

Xu Changshui knew a thing or two after hearing this, this person must be the best friend of Shen Lang, the famous hero of the Jianghu.

There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that two years ago, Shen Lang, Wang Lianhua, Zhu Qiqi, and Panda Er, together with the tornado's military advisor Jin Wuwang, wiped out the Happy King in the desert, and the five became famous.

After returning, the five of them disappeared. Where did they go?What did you do?Will there be that exciting rivers and lakes legend again?

It is said that only Shen Lang, Wang Lianhua, Zhu Qiqi, and Panda Er returned, and Jin Wuwang stayed in the desert alone.It is also said that the five people actually stayed in the desert and lived in seclusion.

How it really looks like, no one knows.

But now Xu Changshui already knew.

Today, Shen Lang, Panda Er, and Wang Lianhua all reappeared in the arena.

What kind of turmoil will there be in the rivers and lakes?

Xu Changshui listened to the three chatting for a while about the other things, which were all uninteresting trifles. After eating, he got up and went out.

After walking quickly along the street for a while, just turning into an alley, a beggar who was lying on the ground and covered in filth suddenly rushed to his feet, hugged Xu Changshui's calf with his black hands, and mourned: "Master, let's have a meal, I haven't eaten for three days."

Xu Changshui was not angry, and looked kindly. He let him hold it, but took out a piece of broken silver from his pocket, knelt down and put it in his palm, and said in a low voice, "Help me find Shen Lang."

The beggar didn't answer, just put the money into his pocket, lay down on the ground again, and picked his nails casually.

Xu Changshui stopped looking at him, and walked out of the alley.

Moonlit night, cold moon, lonely moon.

Under the lonely moon is a lonely person.

A person.

Walking in the biting cool wind in the middle of the night, the pure moonlight stretched his shadow long and thin, his steps were slow and steady, his expression was calm and calm, and warm wind seemed to blow in his bright star-like eyes, conveying a peaceful and peaceful message to the outside world. strength.

It was already the third watch, but Shen Lang saw a person standing in the middle of the street ahead.

At such a time and such a place, the appearance of anyone will appear weird and treacherous.

"Hero Shen."

"So you waited for me here on purpose?" Shen Lang smiled slightly.

"Correct."

"very good."

"Very good?" Xu Changshui was puzzled

"It is a blessing for the people of Luoyang to have an upright and intelligent catcher like Xu catcher."

"Do you know who I am?"

"Since Butou Xu can know my whereabouts, I should know something too."

"very good."

"very good?"

"Shen Daxia is indeed as exquisite as the rumors say."

"So, what can Shen do for Butou Xu?" Shen Lang looked at Xu Changshui with that peaceful and warm smile.

But Xu Changshui said coldly: "Will Daxia Shen be willing to help me catch the thief who stole the painting, Wang Lianhua, and retrieve the "Thousand Li River Snow Picture" and the Three Beauties Picture lost by the palace." He clearly said a word of prayer , but in his tone and face, there was no intention of praying at all, as if Shen Lang should have helped him.

Shen Lang was not annoyed, and said with a smile, "Xu Butou is a hero with strong bones, and Shen should help him."

It was unexpected that he promised so easily, Xu Changshui couldn't help being taken aback, there were rumors in the world that Shen Lang and Wang Lianhua were natural enemies, but there were also rumors that they were good friends who were sincere and sincere, and they joined forces to destroy the happy king's lair.

And now Shen Lang agreed to Xu Changshui's request so happily.

Are they friends or foes?Who can know?

Xu Changshui also had a hint of a smile on his face. He was always serious and stern, but when he laughed at this time, his whole body became sunny and full of youthful air.This smile makes people suddenly realize that Xu Changshui is only 22 years old, which is the most vigorous age for a person.

"Hero Shen keeps his word."

"That's natural, but Shen still has a question."

"please say."

"As for the fact that Wang Lianhua stole the Qianlijiang Snow Picture, is Xu Butou sure? As far as I know, although Wang Lianhua's actions are vicious and vicious, judging from his family property, it should not be too serious. As for coveting valuable paintings, you have to do this kind of theft."

Xu Changshui said: "Western Region mothballs are placed in the study of the Wangfu. After the theft of the Wangfu the night before, I have searched the whole city with hounds. Except for Wang Lianhua's other garden, there is no smell of mothballs. He has been to the study of the Wangfu." There is no doubt about it, but it is really hard to explain if he did not steal "A Thousand Miles of River Snow Picture"."

Shen Lang pondered for a while and said: "It does look like this." Then he showed a sly smile, "Then why don't we catch him and talk about it first."
