I am born with insufficiency

Chapter 9 Serial Killing Needles ([-])
When County Magistrate Lu toasted Master Taichang for the third cup of shocking wine, Master Taichang just drank it and suddenly fell down beside the wine table. When everyone hurriedly carried him to the main hall, his round eyes struggled twice, and then Out of breath.

Gu Buquan rushed over, only to see Zhu Yuanbao hugging Master Taichang's head, and Ling An squatting in front of them, rolling his eyelids and sticking his tongue, with a serious expression on his face.

Following his gaze, Gu Buquan murmured softly: "The complexion is black and blue, the eyes are round, the lips are black and purple, the appearance of death is the same as that of a bride."

Ling An didn't look back, but raised Master Taichang's wrist to look at it, and said, "It's a little less."

Gu Buquan went up to look carefully at Master Taichang's death. It was consistent with Qiaoer, but there was no scar left by a sharp weapon on his wrist. Master Chang didn't have any wounds on his hands, so how did he die?"

"There is another cause of death." He then looked back at Gu Buquan and answered in the affirmative.

Gu Buquan nodded: "Well, so, the bride did not die by cutting her wrists like everyone thinks, there must be another cause of death."

Seeing the two men gesticulating and talking in front of the corpse, County Magistrate Lu suddenly asked, "Who are these two people? Are they the clerks of the county government office? Why doesn't this official know?"

"It's not Wu Zuo, one is the idiot who is a great dancer in the Maple Leaf class, and the other is the little girl who sells coffins in the town."

Amid the laughter of the crowd, Zhu Ding stepped forward and picked up Ling An by the back of the neck and scolded, "You are a great dancer pretending to be something, get out of here."

"What are you laughing at? My master is dead. Isn't it funny?"

Zhu Ding was furious, he vented his anger on Ling An, and kicked him, Ling An jumped away very smartly, Zhu Ding kicked very hard, and made a big split, unable to get up for a long time, Everyone covered their mouths and laughed secretly, even the county magistrate Lu twitched his mouth a few times and restrained himself fiercely.

Taking advantage of the excitement, Gu Buquan approached Zhu Yuanbao and asked in a low voice.

"Zhu Yuanbao, did Master Taichang take his life?"

After confirming that Master Taichang was dead, Gu Buquan's first reaction was that it had something to do with the stranger in the black cloak, but after waiting for a long time, the man in the cloak only passed by the door, but he did not come in.

"Desperation? My father lives in the fourth rank, and the Holy Father has called back to Beijing to preside over the Empress Dowager's birthday. She will be promoted soon, so what is my fate?"

Zhu Yuanbao was at a loss what to do, so Gu Buquan asked inexplicably at this time, and waved his hand irritably, "Go away."

"Coffin girl, let's go, don't make yourself uncomfortable here."

Zhu Ding lost face, got up from the ground and pushed Gu Buquan away. She was unprepared and saw that her head was about to hit the corner of the table. When she closed her eyes and screamed, she didn't feel the expected pain .

It was Ling An who blocked her forehead with a palm, and she bumped the back of her hand against the corner of the table along the way, breathing in the pain.

But she didn't stop the dive, she fell down firmly on the ground, heard a "hiss", and tore off a piece of his coarse cloth shirt.

But at this time, Sun Xiaokong was attracted by Master Taichang's shining gold-encrusted walking stick, so he ran over to snatch it and then ran away.

"Pohou, stop for me."

Zhu Ding and others chased Sun Xiaokong all over the yard, and they turned their backs, but they couldn't get half of Sun Xiaokong's hair.

Sun Xiaokong drank a jug of wine, and when he saw someone chasing him, he became even more noisy. He jumped on the wall and squatted to play with the gold-encrusted crutches, sometimes gnawing on them.

Zhu Ding was cursing below, and ordered the servants to shoot with bows and arrows.

This made Gu Buquan anxious, and shouted at Sun Xiaokong: "Sun Xiaokong, where is Gui Xiaobao?"

Gui Xiaobao was always in charge of Sun Xiaokong, and he carried it with him wherever he went, but at this time, Sun Xiaokong didn't see Gui Xiaobao except for his crutches.

Thinking of Gui Xiaobao, Hou'er became anxious, dropped the gold-encrusted crutch casually, jumped off the wall with a "squeak", and hurriedly burrowed into the crowd to find Gui Xiaobao.

The golden cane hung impartially on the eaves.

"That's your father's treasure, hurry up and get it down, that ruby ​​is priceless." A group of wives and concubines of Master Taichang came from the backyard, before they had time to look at the body of the master, they all focused on the gold-encrusted walking stick went.

Don't look at Mr. Taichang married one wife and eight concubines, but Zhu Yuanbao has a son in all. Now they are all chattering and making decisions against him.

"Whoever gets it down, I will give you a lot of rewards."

As soon as she heard that there was a big reward, Hua Yaoling immediately changed her mind and urged Ling An: "Silly boy, don't you have a knack for climbing up and down, go up?"

"No, I have to negotiate a good price first, and I won't go without two taels of silver." If you want to be smart, you have to count your bangs, but Zhu Ding is only willing to give one tael of silver, and the two sides are at a stalemate.

Zhu Yuanbao slapped the wine table and threw out three taels of silver. Qi Liu Hai immediately put it in his arms, and the matter was considered a deal.

Zhu Ding said: "Young master, these silver coins are all accumulated by the master one copper plate after another, you have to save some money."

Zhu Yuanbao was just getting irritable, so he opened his mouth and scolded: "Isn't my father's money my money? I spend a few taels of silver, when will it be your turn to make irresponsible remarks?"

"This old slave is all for the Zhu family. Now that the master is gone, this old slave..." Zhu Ding was so wronged that he almost shed tears.

Taking advantage of their bargaining opportunity, Gu Buquan and Sun Xiaokong were busy looking for Gui Xiaobao, when they saw the turtle son obediently lying under a wine table and taking a nap.

"Gui Xiaobao." Gu Buquan called happily, and Gui Xiaobao poked his head out to look around.

However, beside Gui Xiaobao, a thin iron needle caught her attention.

The iron needle was pointed at both ends, about three inches long, and as thin as a hair.

And that table is exactly where Master Tai Chang fell down after drinking.

Just as she was reaching out to pick up the iron needle, Zhu Ding stepped on the back of her hand.

"It's all because of you, the coffin girl." Just now, Zhu Ding was angry with his young master, and Zhu Ding just couldn't take care of it, and exerted force on his feet, causing her to grin her teeth in pain.

"My master married a concubine well, why are you a coffin seller here to mix things up? If it weren't for your bad luck, would our master die, and the bride could die?"

Everyone booed for a while: "Yes, yes, it's all bad luck brought by the coffin girl, get her out quickly, or something may happen again."

Everyone is afraid of bad luck, if they become the next one to suffer bad luck, will they die unjustly?
A big servant came forward and grabbed Gu Buquan by the back of his neck, swung it round and threw it out of the gate.

Ling An was stepping on the table and pointing his finger at the wall, when he saw Gu Buquan being thrown out of the gate, he turned sharply and changed direction to chase outside, but it was already half a step away, so he had to desperately go down and land on the ground first. The ground became an incomplete human cushion, saving her from a bloody disaster.

Gu Buquan was unscathed, stood firm and put on a fighting posture, and muttered: "My coffin will block it."

Zhu Ding took a look, it was not bad, if she didn't hit her all over the place, where would she get rid of her smugness?

"This dance master is not a good thing, call me."

Ding of the Zhu family and Tang Wang all surrounded him with punches and kicks.

As long as Ling An is a carp, it's not a problem to get away, but Gu Buquan will be in danger of being beaten to death or maimed, so Ling An has never used his skills, and has always protected Gu Buquan in his arms, punching and punching. No feet ever hit her.

"Stupid, you are so stupid." Gu Buquan was tightly held in his arms, he couldn't see but could hear the fists and kicks on Ling An's body.

"You are stupid."

Gu Buquan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, no matter what time it was, this idiot was still muffled for no reason.

Lu County Magistrate's entourage asked: "Master, do we want to take care of it?"

County magistrate Lu narrowed his eyes: "No hurry, let's take a look."

Hua Yaoling jumped up anxiously, and scolded Ge Gen: "Idiot, you are also a member of our Maple Leaf class. Did you just watch him get beaten? In the future, you will have a dilemma. Who will stand up for justice?"

Pueraria was ordered by Weihua to ring the bell, and all the members of the Maple Leaf class came up, and everyone was gearing up for a big battle that was about to break out.

Zhang Dashan, who had been sitting on the sidelines, saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over.

"Enough is enough, don't kill anyone. The magistrate is still here. If you kill someone, should you be held accountable or not? Is it the people from the Zhu family or the Lizheng family? Drink today Changing the wedding banquet into a funeral banquet is already unpleasant enough, so why don’t you add it to the prison meal? Are you the magistrate of the county?”

A Huan nestled in Zhang Dashan's arms and barked at the county magistrate Lu twice, and Zhang Dashan patted its head, "Hehe, look at it, my lord, A Huan looks anxious."

Gu Buquan listened to A Huan's cry, why didn't it seem to be anxious, but fear?Could it have seen the murderer?
