Chapter 171: Clues found, Wan Ersao gets angry and hits someone with her head
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao Da searched along the street but found no clues.
Boss Wan also asked people along the way.
"Little brother, have you seen a man in his twenties? He is wearing a dark blue cotton coat and trousers, about the same height as me, thin, and a little dark..."
"No, no, go ask somewhere else and don't delay my business."
After being driven away, Boss Wan did not give up and asked the next shop owner. He asked all the shop owners along the street, but he still did not have any clues.
At this time, I happened to meet Zhuifeng.
"Zhuifeng? Why are you here?" Wan Laoer had been to the mayor's house and had seen Zhuifeng, so he knew him.
Zhuifeng was sweating and panting as he said, "My master is worried, so he asked me to find out if Master Wan San has returned. If not, let me help look for him."
Wan Laoer was overjoyed. It would definitely be much more convenient for them to have Zhuifeng's help. Firstly, Zhuifeng was more familiar with the situation than they were. Secondly, Zhuifeng was someone close to the mayor, so others had to give him some face.
"Thank you very much, Brother Zhuifeng. We have searched all over the street but found no clues. We also asked people along the way but they ignored us. Sigh!"
As Wan Laoer said this, he hit his left palm directly with his right fist, lowered his head and sighed heavily.
It was really difficult for this person to take a single step in a foreign land, especially when encountering something like this, he felt powerless and frustrated.
Zhuifeng said quickly, "Master Wan, don't panic, I'll ask."
Wan Lao Er and Wan Lao Da rekindled their hope and followed Zhui Feng towards the vendors along the way.
These vendors were quite polite when they met Zhuifeng, and they answered all of Zhuifeng's questions.
Boss Wan secretly sighed in his heart. These people at the border just heard that they spoke with foreign accents and deliberately bullied them. Now their expressions changed very quickly.
After some inquiries, I actually found some useful information.
It was a small vendor selling eggs squatting at the entrance of the alley, and he provided a piece of information.
"Not long ago, I was weighing eggs for a customer, and I seemed to hear some noise coming from the alley over there, and the voices of several men, as if saying hurry up, don't let anyone find out, and carry it away as soon as you get it. I was busy at the time and didn't pay much attention. When I finished my work and went to the alley to look, there was no one there, but there was a wooden stick on the ground and a small stain of blood. You can go and take a look for yourself."
The faces of the eldest and second Wan turned pale at that moment, and they prayed in their hearts that it wasn't the third Wan.
The two of them ran into the alley as fast as the wind.
This alley is not straight, but rather curved. No wonder the vendor didn't see the people in the alley.
After running for a distance, Boss Wan saw a wooden stick as thick as an arm at the base of the wall. It was stained with blood, and there were also bloodstains on the ground.
Boss Wan quickly ran back, grabbed the vendor, and asked anxiously, "Did you see where that group of people went?"
The small vendor was frightened by Boss Wan's momentum. Boss Wan's face was full of anger and anxiety, his eyes were as big as copper bells, and they were full of red bloodshot. He looked like he might go crazy at any time.
The vendor trembled and replied, "It seems like he left from that end, not this way, otherwise I would have seen him. That side is a residential area, and there are few people walking around, so no one would notice him even if he did something."
Boss Wan let go of the vendor and ran to the other end of the alley.
Wan Laoer was careful. He had already lowered his head to look at the bloodstains on the ground. He saw that every five or six feet there was a drop of bloodstain, which was not so clear. It was already a dark red color and not so bright.
"Brother, there are traces of blood. Let's follow the traces of blood and we will definitely find the person."
Zhuifeng was worried, so he quickly followed the brothers.
On the other side, Mrs. Wan, Old Man Wan and Second Sister Wan, holding little Fubao, asked for directions along the way and arrived at the headquarters of the Golden Axe Gang.
Among all the gangs, only the Golden Axe Gang has its headquarters in the town, while the others have each chosen a favorable location to set up their own base.
In this way, if the imperial court can no longer tolerate them one day, they can hide quickly. Only the leader of the Golden Axe Gang, Shen Qinghan, dares to establish his own lair in the town with great fanfare. Isn't it because he relies on the support of his elder brother, the prefect, that he is so arrogant and domineering?
Little Fubao was wrapped in a small quilt by Mrs. Wan. It was a bit cold outside, and Mrs. Wan didn't want to bring little Fubao with her, but after some thought, she decided to bring little Fubao. After all, Shen Qinghan liked little Fubao very much, and only by bringing little Fubao with her would she have a chance to meet the gang leader.
It was the middle of the afternoon, and the members of the Golden Axe Gang were idle and doing nothing. The people guarding the gate were either sitting or standing on both sides of the gate.
There was a striking plaque hanging on the dark gate - Golden Axe Gang.
After Wan Laosi saw it clearly, he immediately became excited.
"Mom, I found it. The Golden Axe Gang. It's written on it. This is it."
Although Mrs. Wan was illiterate, she still followed her son's hand and looked over, and saw a few large golden words, shining brightly in the sun.
"No wonder the Golden Axe Gang is the top gang alongside the Green Ox Gang. This gate is so impressive."
However, Old Mrs. Wan had no intention of standing at the door admiring the gate. When she saw the people standing at the door, she pushed Old Fourth Wan.
"Old Four, go up and ask if there is any compromise, even some money will do, so that we can see the gang leader as soon as possible."
Wan Laosi responded nervously, and Mrs. Wan took out a dozen coins from her bosom and handed them to Wan Laosi.
Wan Laosi took it and held it in his hand.
The gatekeeper also saw Old Lady Wan and the others at this time, and he looked at them sideways. When he saw Old Fourth Wan trotting over, they slowly stood up straight with scrutiny on their faces.
"Brothers, we are the shopkeepers of Yunkelai and would like to meet your leader. Could you please help pass the message?"
Wan Laosi nodded and bowed, with a smile on his face and his hands tucked into his sleeves.
One of the doormen laughed sarcastically: "A shopkeeper of a small shop wants to see our gang leader? If you don't have any pee, I have some, how about I pee and let you look at me? See if you look worthy enough?"
His words immediately caused laughter from others, and the strong sarcasm made Wan Laosi's face turn red.
He felt a little embarrassed, but thinking about his third brother's missing whereabouts and uncertain life or death, he resisted the urge to turn around and leave.
Wan Laosi forced a smile with difficulty and handed over the dozen cents that Old Lady Wan had just given him with both hands.
"Brothers, please help pass the message. This money is my invitation to tea, okay?"
Xiang Datou glanced at the few copper coins in Wan Laosi's hand and sneered, "Are you sending away beggars? Is this money enough to buy a pot of tea? Who are you humiliating here? Get out of here and stop being an eyesore."
As he spoke to Datou, he pushed Wan Laosi back.
Wan Laosi was pushed and staggered. There was a staircase behind him. He stepped on empty air and fell to the ground. He fell heavily on his butt and immediately started to cry out with his teeth bared.
Little Fubao showed her two cute big eyes at this time. Seeing her fourth uncle being bullied, she struggled to get down. Wan Ersao was caught off guard and almost dropped her to the ground.
"Mother, Fubao is coming."
Wan Ersao thought that Xiao Fubao wanted to urinate, so she quickly put her down.
But as soon as little Fubao's feet touched the ground, he ran towards Wan Lao Si in a crooked manner. When Wan Ersao delayed, Wan Lao Tai had already run over on tiptoe.
"Uncle Four, break the silver, break the silver."
Although Xiao Fubao has short legs, she runs quite fast. When Wan Ersao caught up with her, she had already run behind Wan Laosi.
Little Fubao had tears in his eyes and pulled Wan Laosi's arm with tearful eyes.
"Fourth Uncle, Fubao, it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt."
Wan Laosi reached out and picked up little Fubao, and tried to comfort the little guy.
"Be good, Fubao. Uncle Si is not in pain. Don't cry, Fubao."
Wan Laosi endured the pain in his buttocks and managed to stand up. At this time, the jade pendant hanging on Xiao Fubao's neck fell off.
The jade pendant was the gift that Shen Qinghan gave to Xiao Fubao before dinner. The Wan family was so busy that they forgot to take it off for her.
Xiang Datou's eyes darkened, he took a step forward, pulled off the jade pendant from Xiao Fubao's neck and held it in his hand.
Little Fubao was frightened by the sudden attack from the other party and shrank into Wan Laosi's arms. At the same time, the pain in her neck made her cry out in pain.
Wan Ersao felt distressed and looked at Xiang Datou with anger in her eyes. She used all her strength to rush towards Xiang Datou and hit him in the stomach. Xiang Datou was pushed five or six feet away by Wan Ersao and sat on the ground.
