Chapter 33 [Troublemaker]
Wrong catch.
Fang Chang instantly realized that it wasn't the catching of the ghost last night that caused the strange things in Pang Yuanwai's house.
Because last night, he started to watch from the very beginning of the night, so before the ghost had time to do anything, he was held down and tied up, and finally escorted away by the parade night guards, and will be sent to the reincarnation of the underworld after the city **** has seen it.
But this is also very good. Although catching the wrong ghost, a wild ghost wandering in the world has huge hidden dangers after all. It is the right thing to assist the city **** to enforce the law.
It's just that I now know that the cause of the problem has not been fully ascertained, and the original plan to punish Pang Yuanwai and help the family who was framed to escape the robbery will be postponed.
The breakfast stall is quite crowded. After getting up, many travelers and businessmen will pack up and come here in groups, put their stomachs on a pad, and continue along the official road.
For this reason, there are always not enough tables at the stalls. Many people who are in a hurry will choose to hold a bowl and eat, squat aside and finish eating, wipe their mouths and leave.
But Fang Chang is not like this.
As an idler, he took his time, waiting for the crowds to thin out and the table to be vacant, before he walked up and said to the owner of the breakfast stall, "Here is a bowl of tofu nao and two deep-fried dough sticks."
"What kind of taste do you want? Bone broth, soy sauce, chili, snow sugar, salt and pepper, you can find everything here."
"Bone Broth."
"Okay—! Wait a minute, sir, I'll be here right away."
Fang Chang found an empty seat and sat down, took out his chopsticks, and waited for the stall owner to bring the food over.
Pure white bean curd is poured with thick bone broth. It looks very appetizing. The deep-fried fried dough sticks are golden and crispy, with a tangy aroma. When dipped in, the soup is richer, soft and delicious, and has a bean aroma.
Easy.
...
…
It was still the big tree, Fang Chang was leaning on the same branch in the same posture as yesterday.
The surrounding environment is also the same. In the surrounding darkness, only two yellow paper lanterns in front of Pang Yuanwai's house are shining brightly, but this is far less than the bright moon in the sky.
Today it can be said that the moon is bright and the stars are sparse.
Although with long eyesight, he can still clearly see the endless galaxy in the sky above his head.
Drinking wine is not diligent today, there is still more than half of the sorghum wine in the gourd on the waist.
Untying the hemp rope that tied the gourd, he raised the gourd, took a sip, then adjusted to a more comfortable posture, looking in the direction of Pang Yuanwai's house.
Hope to have something tonight.
Adjusting his breathing, Fang Chang re-entered a state of tranquility.
It wasn't until the watchman rang the clapper three times that there was no new movement from the target. A thin black figure appeared from the corner of the street and approached Pang Yuanwai's house furtively. Stack, slip up to the roof.
Fang Chang saw clearly with his extraordinary eyesight that it was a yellow dog.
It is the most common kind of native dog in villages and towns. It is often raised as a housekeeper. It also wears a cloth collar around its neck. It looks like a domestic dog, but it has obviously become a fine dog.
Even an ordinary person here would notice the abnormality of this yellow dog.
Because there has never been a normal dog that can walk on two hind legs, and when it walks on the roof with two hind legs, it will be careful not to trample the tiles to make a sound.
I saw the dog ghost sneaking up on the roof, holding a stone in its right paw, and it was obviously spying on the yard of Pang Yuanwai's house.
This time I found the right owner, the ghost last night was a little bit wronged.
In Fang Chang's playful sight, the yellow dog on the roof found the target in Pang Yuan's outer courtyard, took a good look at it, took a slither after the run-up, threw the stone out, and made loud noises steadily, as if there was something Utensils such as water tanks were hit.
In an instant, Pang Yuan's outer courtyard was full of chickens and dogs, and people's voices were noisy.
Seeing that he had succeeded, the yellow dog lowered his body, slipped down from the roof, and ran towards the distance cautiously, without making a sound.
Fang Chang smiled, tied the wine gourd in his hand, jumped off the branch, and followed lightly.
The dog got back on all fours, ran nimbly, and headed out of the town.
It is quite alert, and it will suddenly change direction after running for a while, just like a rabbit that is often chased during hunting, as if to throw off possible pursuers. Fang Chang followed behind, neither far nor near, his movements were as natural as an antelope hanging horns, unable to distinguish face to face, so the dog in front had no idea that there was a person behind him.
This level of vigilance, combined with the hit-and-run tactics, it's no wonder they always go undetected.
It was not until a grass nest in the distance that the yellow dog got into it silently, ready to rest.
"This dog brother invited."
The sound rang out, frightening the yellow dog, its ears pricked up, its legs trembled wildly, and its tail was clamped tightly:
"who!"
It seemed that it was too shocking for a dog to confide in human words, so it added another sentence like stealing the bell: "Wow!"
The man opposite him smelled strongly of alcohol and smoke.
But with his sense of smell, he completely ignored when he came to his side. Moreover, the person standing opposite gave the dog the feeling of facing the mountains and rivers, and it must be invincible.
Could it be the helper that Pang Yuan invited?
This is the end!
Seeing this, the yellow dog fortunately stopped hiding, let go of his tail, and asked, "Who is under your feet?"
Fang Chang saw that the dog demon did not run away, so he smiled and comforted it: "Don't worry, I have no preference for what you did to Pang Yuan's family, but I am curious about it. Why did you do this?"
The yellow dog in front of him bowed his head and thought for a while, and finally decided to tell the truth:
"The little demon originally lives at home. Although the master's family is not rich, it never lacks my daily meals. When I take care of the house and nurse the house every day, I spend my days playing and having a good time."
"Unexpectedly, this Pang officer saw how many acres of good land the master's family had, so he colluded with the town guards, framed the male master of the family, arrested him, and took away the few acres of good land. Affected by this, people in the family were panicked. He even stopped cooking frequently. The little demon felt pain in my heart, so she wanted to take revenge on Pang Yuanwai, so that he would return and release his master despite the difficulty."
Hearing what the yellow dog said, Fang Chang nodded and said:
"That's reasonable, but why did you come to this wilderness?"
"I'm afraid that things will come to light and hurt the master's family, so I'll just kill me at that time, but it seems that Pang Yuan's family can't invite any high-level people, and none of them even found me. So during this time, every night I would pick a time at random and go to Pang Yuanwai's house to make a fuss, until now I was discovered."
On the contrary, there is only a good dog demon who is loyal, loyal and alert.
But I heard the dog monster continue to say: "To go to Pang Yuan's house to make trouble, the biggest idea is to see if the owner can be rescued, but this may make the owner's family wanted. I'm still thinking about it. Another purpose But I have a friend who is also trapped in Pang Yuanwai's house, and I want to rescue him."
"oh?"
Thank you Chi Chi and others for your dog tip.
