Seeing the reeds growing around, the more desolate they walked, the Sigong Song couldn't help but ask the shopkeeper who led the way: "Where are we going? If we just avoid the official, just find a place to stay for half a day, why should we be so far away from the shop?"

Zhuang Ketou, who led the way, did not reply: "The fourth master just followed. There is a place in front and you can stay temporarily."

Song Sigong looked at Shen Dalang and the other two beside him, all of whom were calm, and could only sigh inwardly and continue moving forward.

I don’t know how long I have been away, but there is a pond in front of me and a few thatched huts beside the pond.

The villager stopped and turned around and said, "This was originally the mother of the great official who wanted to be quiet. She built a temple here to concentrate on chanting Buddha's name. After the old lady passed away, an old nun lived here and was worshipped by the village. The fourth prince stayed here for some days, and the great official made his own arrangements."

Shen Dalang was tired of leaving, and after hearing this, he said, "It's best. The three of us brothers are used to living in such places."

The Sigong of Song looked around and saw the desolate area where he saw it. There was no one inside. He nodded.

When we arrived at the temple, a middle-aged woman in her thirties came out and saluted several people.

The shopkeeper said: "Sister-in-law, these are guests from the shop. Because it is inconvenient, they come here to stay for a few days."

The woman glanced at the few people and felt a little embarrassed: "There are only two people here, both of them, both of them are women, I'm afraid there is something wrong with it."

"They slept all over the room, what's wrong with it! The official told me to do this and the sister-in-law just do it!"

The boss of the shopkeeper was impatient and said, while calling Song Sigong and others into the house.

The woman sighed, said nothing, and stood outside in a daze.

Helping Mr. Song and others settle down on the house on one side, the shopkeeper said: "Mr. Si. Mr., live here. As long as he does not disturb the old nun's cultivation there, everything is fine. His daily meals are arranged by his sister-in-law, and someone will be sent to the village one or two days later."

Seeing that the house was clean and quiet, there was no objection. He came to join Ma Meng, who wanted to hide in his farm for a few days, and then the two of them worked together on the Bian River. There were many customers on the canal, and they were all innocent. It was easy to do business without money. However, they did not expect that they could not settle down after encountering unexpected things one after another, which was annoying.

After the settlement of the villager, he hurried back to the village. The yamen sent someone to investigate the young and strong, but the village did not dare to take it seriously.

After finishing the pack, Mr. Song and Shen Dalang and others finished packing up, they were bored and walked around outside the house and said to the woman standing at the door: "Sister, arrange some vegetables and vegetables, let's drink two bowls of wine."

The woman agreed and returned to the house. After a while, she brought two dishes, which were nothing more than a few fresh vegetables. Song Sigong and his men took their own wine, sat at a table outside the house, and drank around.

After drinking two bowls of wine, seeing the woman standing outside the house in a daze, Song Sigong asked casually: "Where is my sister from? It doesn't seem to be from the village."

The woman said: "I was originally from Mengcheng, Benzhou. I came here with the Hun family selling medicinal materials in Zhoucheng because I lost money. After a few years, I became used to living here and went on a day by day."

Song Si said justice: "Is the medicinal materials business in this area easy to do? I have seen several businesses doing this business these days when I came to Bozhou. Needless to say, the Tao Shiqi, who killed people in the street in Zhoucheng a few days ago, also sold medicinal materials at home."

The woman was stunned when she heard this, turned around and asked, "What did the official just say to kill people in the street? Who is Tao Shiqi?"

Shen Dalang said: "Tao Shiqi is a beggar in the city of the state. When I first arrived in the city, he cheated me. Later, he said that he had avenged some family revenge and killed Lu Yuhou from Yongcheng on the street. It's funny that the guy was caught in the official to investigate, but he turned out to have killed the wrong person."

After hearing this, the woman became more and more panicked: "Marquis Lu Yu is a relative of Ma Guanren. His family lost money back then. I came here and it was brought by Marquis Lu Yu. - Official, what happened to Tao Shiqi? Please tell me in detail."

Shen Dalang was bored, so he said it all over again how Tao Shiqi killed people, laughed in the street, and was caught in the state yamen. Although most of it was heard from others, he said it vividly at this time, as if he had seen it with his own eyes.

At the end, Shen Dalang smiled and said, "Isn't it funny! The little thief was so arrogant and responsible when he killed people. Many people onlookers even applauded him. But he didn't want to catch the government office. After asking, the guy couldn't even explain the name and origin of the man Lu Yuhou. In a few years, he could not remember the person's face, but he killed the wrong person. This guy killed a life, paid a life, but in the end he had to be a confused ghost."

After hearing this, the woman looked pale and stood there trembling.

Song Sigong watched coldly and asked casually: "Sister-in-law, do you know the murderer Tao Shiqi?"

The woman shook her body and suddenly woke up, saying, "Is the food enough? If it is not enough, there is a fish in the basin. I will wash it and cook it for you. It is far away from the town and there is nothing good to eat."

After saying that, he hurried back to the house.

Looking at the woman's back, Shen Dalang muttered: "This woman is a little weird and she speaks in a mess!"

Song Sigong looked at the room where the woman entered meaningfully, lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "There is no place here, and this woman doesn't usually speak, so it's normal for such strangeness. Let's drink and ignore her."

Shen Dalang and his wife were rude. After drinking two bowls of wine, they forgot what had happened just now and only drank. After a while, they couldn't help but say goodbye to Song Si: "Second Duke, we have been to the Madaguanren Manor's House for a few days, but we only met him and didn't say anything serious. They usually have less wine and meat, and they live without any happiness. It is said that Madaguan is happy to accept people from the world, but we have arrived, but it is not as legendary."

Song Sigong looked gloomy, looked around again, and said in a deep voice: "Let's stay for a few more days. If it's really not satisfactory, don't change the place. I have a brother who is in Yangzhou. What if I look for a boat to go down the Bian River for a few days!"

During these days of living in Mameng Village, Song Sigong was quite frustrated. He originally thought that when he arrived here, he would be like a bird coming to the sky, swimming fish swimming into the water and was free. However, he did not expect that Mameng settled himself in the village and sent someone to watch him and not allowed to walk around. He used to think that he was afraid of disturbing the people in the face of the officials, but now he thinks that the more he thinks, the more he is, the more he is, the more he is, the more he is thinking about it. People like them have a world of Jianghu, which is very different from normal society. Song Sigong is also a famous person in the rivers and lakes. Ma Meng should have invited such people to see him. As a result, he disappeared, and lived in the village like a prisoner.
