After a while, Tan Desi really nodded.

He told Lu Bai that there were all kinds of people who gave "pork", old and young, and most of them were born in poverty.

"Although I don't know these people, but after so many years—"

Tan Desi shook his head with a wry smile.

Always meet one or two familiar faces in the capital.

He had once seen a boatman with a scar on his temple, much like one of the masked men who had brought him "pork" long ago.

When the boatman was pulling him, his eyes were still dodging, which convinced Tan Desi somewhat.

"In addition, once when one person was delivering 'pork', when he finished his work in a panic, he threw a bamboo card into the car that delivered the meat."

It was a small bamboo card.

The person's occupation was written on the bamboo sign - he was a charcoal worker in a charcoal company.

Tan Desi quietly put away the bamboo plaque and destroyed it at that time, because he knew that he could not know the identity of others when doing such activities, otherwise there would be endless troubles.

"That person didn't come to look for the bamboo card, and he knew that this matter should not be exposed, let alone let others know that he had exposed his identity," Tan Desi said.

Lu Bai didn't listen to what he said later, because he seemed to be enlightened, and suddenly understood the key point of his several investigations - Bamboo Shadow Hall!

Charcoal business, pig slaughtering business, construction business, Yazi business, boat business - if there are forces that can link these businesses together, among all the forces that Lu Bai knows, only Zhuyingtang can do it.

Fang Qianhu once said that the Bamboo Shadow Hall has almost monopolized all the unappealable businesses in the capital, even if it is successful, it depends on the face of the Bamboo Shadow Hall. shadow hall.

With such a great convenience and network of connections, if Zhuyingtang colluded with the people from Neishutang to do the ogre's deeds, Lu Bai had no doubt that they would do what they are doing now.

"Bamboo Shadow Hall, Tang Zhu!"

Lu Bai couldn't help but think of Tang Zhu, the bamboo shadow hall who came by boat and talked and exchanged information with him on the Qinhuai River.

It was a middle-aged man in a soapy and white Confucian shirt, with a lun scarf on his head and a bamboo fan in his hand. He had an elegant and calm face, and he was indescribably romantic.

At that time, Tang Zhu told him that he was not the hall master of Zhuying Hall, but only Tang Mingzhu.

But judging from the meeting that day, even if Tang Zhu is not the head of Zhuying Hall, he is still a person with great power to speak.

Now we must find the people from Bamboo Shadow Hall.

Lu Bai turned around and was about to leave in a hurry.

The sloppy Taoist priest stopped him from behind, "Master, what should we do with him? If you don't treat him today, I don't think he will survive today."

Hearing this, Lu Bai stopped in his tracks.

He turned his head and looked at Tan Desi who was looking at him expectantly and heaved a sigh of relief.

He sighed: "Don't worry, don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised you—and besides, I will try my best not to let your children die in their hands."

Tan Desi smiled when he heard this.

He nodded slightly imperceptibly, and then lay on the bed waiting to die.

Snapped!

The Que De monk waved his hand casually, and his sleeve brushed Tan Desi's cheek, making Tan Desi lose his breath completely.

Lu Bai was startled, "You, what are you doing?"

"Let him go to see the King of Hades." The wicked monk said as a matter of course.

"No, he was going to see Hades, why did you do it?" Lu Bai asked.

The wicked monk clasped his hands together and sang a Buddha's name, "Amitabha, head of the sect, the monks are compassionate. He is in such pain, and he is on the way to Huangquan Road early, so I will send him a ride in advance."

"Uh--"

Lu Bai looked at him silently.

This reason was so powerful that Lu Bai was speechless.

After a while, he seemed to be talking to himself and asking, "Aren't you a monk? Isn't it easy for a monk to be murdered? What's more, you are like this."

The wicked monk still has a lot of reasons, "I am not as good as hell, who will go to hell?"

Lu Bai was completely speechless now.

The sloppy Taoist priest laughed, "Now do you know why he is called a wicked monk?"

Because what the monk did was very wicked, not only to others, but also to himself.

Lu Bai nodded, as expected, he did not use the wrong nickname.

However, the wickedness of the wicked monk does not stop there.

Yesterday, the sloppy Taoist priest mentioned that he wanted to drink the wine brewed by the newly minted wine slaves on the Qinhuai River.It's just that the wine is usually not taken out to entertain people, only after someone pays money and puts it on her pillow mat will it be taken out to have a drink together.

The wicked monk became the right candidate.

After he took the silver from Yunniang, he immediately went to see the wine slave under the urging of the sloppy Taoist priest.

An old monk went on a boat on the Qinhuai River and wanted to buy wine as a slave for one night. It was rumored that people would laugh out loud.

The wine slave is a new girl again, she is in the limelight, and she is just around the corner to become a famous prostitute on the Qinhuai River.

She naturally didn't want to and would not agree to the old monk.

However, the wicked monk gave too much.

In the end, the wicked monk managed to spend the night in the wine slave, but the night was extremely long for the wine slave. It was so long that she would rather receive seven or eight guests to play together until dawn than receive the wicked monk again.

There is no other reason, the wicked monk is too strong.

Fighting all night until dawn.

When the rooster crowed, he still didn't seem to stop or lose interest, but the wine slave was already dying—the wicked monk read Buddhist scriptures to her all night, and discussed Buddhist scripture annotations with her from time to time.

Whenever she dealt with it casually, the wicked monk couldn't help nodding, saying that there are many explanations for Zen language, and the girl's explanation is not only rare but also unique, which shows that she has Buddha nature.

The wine slave couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard this.

nonsense!

Since ancient times, it is estimated that no monk asked her sister to explain the Buddhist scriptures. Of course, she has a unique insight in what she said casually.

The old monk's praise of "having Buddha nature" made her even more unbearable, as if she was a bodhisattva who was delayed by the brothel. If the wine slave hadn't been determined, she would have shaved her hair and become a nun after this night.

Chapter 453

That night, Lu Bai drank the wine secretly brewed by the wine slave, laughing at the wickedness of the wicked monk.

He is in a good mood.

Although he didn't go to Chengshimen today, he handled the case well.

After he went to Jinyiwei and gave an order, all the Jinyiweis in the city were dispatched to search for people from Zhuyingtang.

As a power in the Jianghu, Zhuyingtang, although both black and white, is a giant in the city's market, but it is not enough to look at in front of Jin Yiwei.

It took only one day for Lu Bai to find Tang Zhu's seat.

This made Lu Bai overjoyed.

This is a big case, if it is solved in one fell swoop, the day of immortality is just around the corner.

However, when he took Fang Qianhu to arrest him personally, Fang Qianhu was not very interested, and he repeatedly advised Lu Bai to be cautious, "Master Hou, you have already suffered a loss once, and if you suffer again, you will lose money." Not too bad, many people are waiting to see your joke." Fang Qianhu said.

His real thought was that if Lu Bai resigned again, maybe Lu Bai would take the seat promised to him in Nanzhen Fusi.

Lu Bai told him not to talk nonsense, just catch him.

"Don't worry about the position of Nanzhen Fusi, you look at the case you handled." Lu Bai said to him disdainfully.

A few days ago, he was asked to catch the tooth that the trafficker had confessed to, but he didn't recognize him in front of him and let him run away. He hasn't been caught yet.

Lu Bai guessed that the tooth man was either dead or locked up.

Fang Qianhu scratched his head in embarrassment, but continued to persuade: "Master Hou, this Bamboo Shadow Hall can't be moved, there are countless threads behind him, and a hair can move his whole body, if this is reckless, There is bound to be a big mess."

Lu Bai said not to care.

Besides, even if something went wrong, Lu Bai's enthusiasm for solving the case could not be stopped.

They soon arrived at the location of Tang Zhu reported by the informant.

Contrary to Lu Bai's expectations, Tang Zhu didn't run away or hide, but sat on a small wooden bridge majestically, fishing in a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat.

When Lu Bai led the people to walk behind him, Tang Zhu didn't turn his head back, but carefully put away the fishing rod, unhooked the fish caught on it, and put it into the bamboo basket next to him.

At this time, he raised his head and looked at Lu Bai, "Lord Lu, how are these fish?"

Lu Bai poked his head to look at his bamboo basket, and there were some small miscellaneous fish inside, the biggest one was no bigger than a palm.

"Not very good." Lu Bai said honestly.

"Haha, it's because Mr. Lu doesn't know the beauty of this fish." Tang Zhu laughed.

He stroked his beard, "These fish are also called mermaids. They have fishing nets, and the fish slipped through the hands of the fisherman."

He raised his head and looked at the upper reaches of the Qinhuai River, "These fish are inconspicuous on the Qinhuai River. The Qinhuai River sings and sings every night, and the smell of fat and powder makes the whole river fragrant. Many fish are also drunk."

Tang Zhu shook his head, and began to talk at length, "They see that they are fish, not human beings, but they are nostalgic for the place of fireworks, and eventually become the dishes of the fisherman, fisherman or Shuiguan in the city."

As usual, the water bureau inspects passing ships, so they will set up checkpoints on the Qinhuai River, and also set up fishing nets, on the one hand to prevent fish monsters and the like from entering the city and endangering the people, and on the other hand, they can catch some fish to make some extra money.

"These fish are different. They are inconspicuous in the Qinhuai River. Parents don't love their mothers, even the fishing nets disdainfully stop him. This makes their meat have the fat and powdery smell of beauties after being cultivated in the Qinhuai River. It's not so ostentatious, full of ordinary and homely taste." Tang Zhuyue said more and more fascinated, and his saliva almost flowed down.

He restrained himself a bit, and said to Lu Bai, "That's the taste of life."

Lu Bai understood, the so-called best taste in the world is happiness, that's probably what it means.

"Okay, I can't explain it clearly, let's talk about it when we taste it. These few fish will be the appetizers for our drinking in Zhao prison." Tang Zhu knocked on the bamboo basket next to him, "There is a jar in it Wine, I have been preparing it for a few days, and now it finally comes in handy."

This is undoubtedly a reminder to Lu Bai that I was already ready to go to Zhao Prison, but I didn't expect you to find me now.

Lu Bai smiled at this and didn't say much.

"This wine is top-notch Nurhong. If you drink it sparingly, it should last until I come out." Tang Zhu stood up contentedly.

"Where are Tan Desi's children?" Lu Bai asked.

He promised Tan Desi that he would do his best to protect his children, and Lu Bai always kept his word in this regard.

"Oh, I'm still alive, and I'm living well." Tang Zhu replied casually while collecting the fishing rod.

After putting away the fishing rod, he shook his sleeves and said to Lu Bai, "Let's go?"

Lu Bai nodded, and instead of letting Jin Yiwei escort him, he got into the carriage with Lu Bai and walked towards Jin Yiwei.

It's not that Lu Bai is tolerant to him.

In fact, considering his crimes, Lu Bai had every intention of killing him on the spot—at the moment Tang Zhu walked with him, a panel appeared in front of him, and a progress bar unexpectedly appeared on the panel.

The name of the progress bar is - Ogre Case.

Accompanying Lu Bai to capture Tang Zhu, it shows that Lu Bai has completed one-third of the case.

From this point of view, there is no doubt that Tang Zhu is one of the perpetrators of the Demon Eater case.

The reason why Lu Bai still doesn't deal with him now is because Lu Bai is too curious about why Tang Zhu is so confident and wants to come out.

You know, even the eunuchs of Neishutang entered Zhao Prison, and they didn't even think about getting out.

After getting into the car, Tang Zhu put the bamboo basket aside, and suggested: "The wife of the cook at the first restaurant at the south end of Zhuque Bridge cooks the best fish dishes with this fish, the Marquis must have never tasted it before."

He shook up the hem of his clothes, sat upright on the seat, smoothed the hem again, raised his head and said with a smile: "At that time, I can let her cook and cook it herself, so that Lu Bai can taste my deep taste. The smell of deep chanting."

Lu Bai didn't say anything, but Fang Qianhu couldn't bear to see him like this.

It's not like going to Zhao Prison at all, it's like going to get promoted and make a fortune. This is obviously looking down on Lord Lu.

As Lu Bai's loyal subordinate who is going to take over the position of Nanzhen Fusi, Fang Qianhu still has basic qualities. He wants to save face for Lu Bai, so he said bluntly: "If you are told to go to Zhao Prison, you should go to Zhao Prison." Visiting relatives."

Then, he said another sentence, and immediately deflected the rigidity just now, "Even if you leave relatives, can you still pick and choose? It will be good to have you with one bite at that time. As for the store, I will Lord Hou please go."

Tang Zhu smiled, "No need, she will go when it's time to cook."

He shook his head leisurely, "This fish has to be cooked fresh, if it is ready and then served on the table, then the fish will not taste good."

"Be serious!"
