After escaping from famine, the evil stepmother was pampered by the villain Zaizai Tuan

Jiang Xiaohua pondered, "Chen Biao and Zhang Lin alone may not have this ability."

"If they just happen to be passing by, that's it."

"If it was the third person among them who came up with the idea, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future."

Li Yuanzhi frowned slightly, very worried, "Indeed, that person is not simple."

When Jiang Xiaohua bought the red bean buns, this person not only did not come forward to participate.

He also turned a blind eye to Zhang Lin and Chen Biao who secretly hid the gold from selling red bean buns.

It can be seen that this person's purpose is not to make money through sideshows, and he is quite wealthy.

Plus what Li Yuanzhi saw at the inn in the middle of the night.

This person's whereabouts are sneaky and mysterious.

All the pieces together revealed dangerous signals in him.

However, these are still in the speculation stage.

They didn't even know the third man, and they didn't know his name.

Jiang Xiaohua said, "I'm not afraid of anything else."

"But we can't keep an eye on the four bastards all the time, so what can we do?"

Li Yuanzhi comforted Jiang Xiaohua, "Just calm down and think."

"The red bean buns were originally owned by Zhang Lin and Chen Biao. The third person didn't care about the red bean buns at that time."

"If we say that we have a grudge against Zhang Lin and Chen Biao, there is still something to be said for it."

"But what reason does the third person have for specifically focusing on dealing with us?"

Jiang Xiaohua felt a little relieved, "What you said makes sense."

"Then just wait and see what happens. Just be cautious lately."

On the other side, Zhang Lin and Chen Biao had limped back to their residence.

They also live in the east of the city, but they are located on the outskirts of the city, still far away from Xingyuan Lane.

In fact, the two of them really just went into the city to buy things today. They happened to pass by Xingyuan Lane and happened to see those children.

In the end, the ruthless revenge failed.

Instead, he was chased by a wolf and lost his shoes, and his face was scratched badly by a monkey.

The place where they live now is an independent suburban farmhouse with no neighbors.

Zhang Lin pushed open the door and shouted impatiently, "Jiang Song, you want to avenge me!"

Jiang Song was planting bamboo poles in the yard.

The bamboo pole has been polished and has a pointed end, making it look very sharp.

There are more than a dozen sticks inserted in different locations in the yard, and he is still holding one in his hand, indicating the location.

Jiang Song didn't even raise his head and said indifferently, "Don't touch the rope hanging on the wall."

"Otherwise, if you die in this yard, there will be no one to help you take the body back to your hometown."

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao looked up at the wall and saw a few thin strings.

They all shuddered when they looked at the sharp top of the bamboo pole.

Jiang Song seemed to have eyes in his back and asked again, "Why are you so embarrassed when I ask you to buy something?"

"What is the revenge I just mentioned?"

Zhang Lin finally had a chance to speak.

He talked about his experience in Xingyuan Lane with spitting words, adding fuel to the fire and fanning the flames.

"You said they deceived our monkeys back then. Now they continue to occupy us."

"It's okay if we both get beaten."

"But you are the eldest among the three of us, so you can't lose face, right?"

Jiang Song held the bamboo pole in his hand, thrust it downwards into the soil, and said expressionlessly:

"You can't even handle a few kids and two animals."

"You are such a loser, and you still want to make up some tricks to encourage me to stand up for you two idiots?"

Everyone will get angry if someone calls them a waste or a fool one after another.

Chen Biao immediately lowered his face and was about to speak.

Zhang Lin hurriedly grabbed his arm and winked as hard as he could.

They followed Jiang Song to the capital. Now they have to count on the glory and wealth Jiang Song promised them, and they must not fall out with Jiang Song now.

Besides...

The longer the contact lasted, the more Zhang Lin became certain that Jiang Song was definitely not bragging when he said he had killed people.

Jiang Song finally finished inserting the last bamboo pole.

He looked at the two people coldly, "Terrorizing children in a busy alley in broad daylight."

"And making such a big fuss."

"I didn't kill you. I'm already showing mercy. How dare you ask me to stand up for you?"

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao suddenly turned pale.

They had no doubt that Jiang Song's eyes really wanted to kill someone at this moment.

Chen Biao held on and said, "We didn't offend you, so you wouldn't say that."

Jiang Song's eyes were sinister and he said in a deep voice, "I warned you, if you want to die, you will do whatever you want."

"But don't do anything that might attract the attention of the authorities."

"What you did today is a violation of the precepts."

The atmosphere in the courtyard was tense, as if even the cold wind had frozen.

Zhang Lin recovered from his fear and quickly admitted his mistake, "Yes, yes, we were excited in the moment and were too reckless. We will never dare to do it next time."

Jiang Song snorted coldly and said nothing more.

Zhang Lin asked again with a smile on his face, "Although we don't know what you are busy with."

"But can you give us some accurate information?"

"When do you plan to open our vaudeville troupe, and where do you plan to open it?"

Jiang Song said calmly, "I'm already looking at the store, it's near Dongshi."

"When I need someone, I will let you know."

After he said that, he turned around and went back to the house.

Zhang Lin and Chen Biao looked carefully to confirm that Jiang Song had entered the room.

The two of them exchanged silent glances and walked outside the yard to whisper.

Chen Biao said angrily, "How are you living now?"

"Since we were forced by him to come to the capital together, have you seen his face?"

"We two grown men have to obey him for everything we eat, drink, and do!"

Zhang Lin sighed, "What can you do? If you don't listen to him, you may even lose your life."

The two of them looked at each other in silence, both deeply regretting it.

You shouldn't have been obsessed with Jiang Song and agreed to join the gang in the first place.

After a while, Zhang Lin said with a smile, "At least now he pays for our food and clothing."

"He's also going to open a sideshow parlor for us, and he said we'd be in charge."

"By then we will be the owners of a juggling troupe in the capital!"

Chen Biao also received some relief.

He thought for a moment and frowned again, "But have you noticed anything weird?"

"He said he had found a shop, but he has never been out recently."

Zhang Lin also realized something was wrong, "That's right."

He looked back at the gate in the distance to make sure no one was coming out.

Then he lowered his voice and said, "In retrospect, many things are like this."

"He obviously doesn't go out often, but he seems to know everything."

"And this courtyard where we live now."

"We arrived in the capital at the same time, stayed together in the inn for two days, and then ended up here."

"And the house is fully equipped with bedding, furniture, and food."

"How can he have time to rent this yard? And make all these arrangements?"

Chen Biao was startled and stammered, "Is it possible that there is... a ghost?"

"Could he be a ghost? We live in a haunted house!"
