Today is Gu Xiaoshun's birthday. Yao took Gu Xiaobao to the tea shop early in the morning to buy tea and snacks. He never expected such a thing.
A madman set fire to a tea shop. The fire on the first floor had been put out. However, none of the guests stranded in the wing room on the second floor dared to rush.
For no other reason, the madman splashed fire oil all over the corridor and the backyard was full.
He then stood on the roof, holding a torch in his right hand. There were several large holes in the roof, facing the stairs and aisles.
No one can guarantee that the madman will not throw out his torch at the moment he runs away.
Yuya'er was able to come out because Gu Xiaobao shouted to eat candied haws. She went across the street and bought a bunch. As soon as she gave the money, the fire burned.
The tea shop is at the east corner of Chang'an Avenue, not far from Bishui alley.
When Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng arrived at the scene, the nearby officers were also surprised. In order to prevent unnecessary injury, the officers took themselves as a wall and separated the people far away.
Several shops opposite were crowded with onlookers.
At this time, the tokens of Renshou palace don't work.
Fortunately, Xiao Heng has an official position in the Ministry of punishment.
"Criminal investigation." he handed out his criminal warrant to the officials of Beijing Zhaofu.
After checking the warrant, he determined that it was true. The officer's look eased a little. Then he looked at Gu Jiao: "who is she?"
Xiao Heng said without changing his face, "the doctor invited by the Ministry of punishment."
There was so much noise that many people were injured.
The officer did not doubt him and let them in.
When they came to the front of the tea shop, they unexpectedly saw a familiar figure.
Gu Jiao blinked in amazement: "Tang Yueshan?"
Tang Yueshan's left hand covered his abdomen. Blood was seeping from his fingertips, his face was pale and his breath was short.
——He was hurt.
He heard Gu Jiao's voice and turned to Gu Jiao. At the same time, he also saw Xiao Heng. He frowned and stopped talking.
It can be seen that he is a little embarrassed and embarrassed.
They both looked at the arsonist on the roof.
The other party was unkempt and embarrassed. They also spent a lot of effort to recognize who he was.
"Tang Ming?" Gu Jiao wondered.
"It's him," said Xiao Heng.
The last time I saw Tang Ming was two or three years ago. At that time, no matter how dark and disdainful he was, he was at least a romantic childe.
Different from the crazy arsonist in front of us.
"What happened?" Gu Jiao asked Tang Yueshan and looked at his abdomen. "You're hurt."
"I'm fine," said Tang Yueshan.
"He made it?" Gu Jiao pointed to Tang Ming.
With Tang Yueshan's martial arts, it's hard for anyone to hurt him unless those big men come forward.
Tang Yueshan sighed: "after I returned to the capital, I found him mixed with some no three no four people. I had a big quarrel with him and he ran away from home. This morning, I found him lying in a gambling house and smoking five stone powder with those people."
Wushi powder is a medicine for treating typhoid fever.
However, this drug has certain side effects, which can make people in a trance and produce functions similar to ecstasy.
Long term consumption or addiction.
No wonder Tang Ming's mental state looks wrong.
Tang Yueshan's mood was very complicated, and he was angry with chagrin: "I beat those people... Beat him too, and ordered him not to communicate with them in the future, or I'll kill them all!"
Gu Jiao asked, "then he did it to you?"
Tang Yueshan said bitterly, "he's going to commit suicide. I went to grab the knife and hurt myself by mistake."
As the saying goes, family ugliness should not be publicized. It is an uncle and nephew, but Gu Jiao and Xiao Heng know that he and Tang Ming are actually father and son.
It's really shameless to make such a scene.
"What are you going to do?" Gu Jiao asked Tang Yueshan.
With Tang Yueshan's archery, he can be shot down with one arrow. The problem is that the torch in his hand will fall after he falls. It would be bad if he ignited the whole tea shop.
Tang Yueshan looked at Tang Ming who was unconscious on the roof and said in embarrassment, "I want to stabilize his mood and lead him down first. But now he doesn't seem to listen to me."
Gu Jiao said, "he just took five stone powder and couldn't listen to anyone. You talk to him here and I'll catch him."
Tang Yueshan stopped and said, "no! It's all fire oil!"
Gu Jiao said positively, "my mother and my brother are in the tea shop."
Tang Yueshan choked.
After a while, he was embarrassed to squeeze out a few words: "I'm sorry..."
Gu Jiao said softly, "don't talk about this first. Act according to the plan."
"... good!" Tang Yueshan kneaded his fist.
"Be careful," Xiao Heng told Gu Jiao.
"I understand. You wait for me here." Gu Jiao said, turning from the alley to the backyard of the tea shop.
The backyard was burned in a mess. The open fire was extinguished, and there were still many small flames left. The officers put out the fire and didn't let themselves make too much noise, for fear of stimulating Tang Ming on the roof.
Tang Ming's body is shaky.
It's like falling with the torch in the next second.
Tang Yueshan hurriedly said, "tomorrow, come down and have a good talk! I won't stop you from making friends! Do whatever you want! Uncle won't stop you!"
"Uncle..." Tang Ming seemed to be stimulated by this word. He suddenly perked up and looked sarcastically at Tang Yueshan in the long street.
Wushi powder has a strong effect. At present, he looks at people vaguely, but he can recognize that the other party is really his "good uncle".
He suddenly laughed wildly: "Uncle... Uncle... Are you my uncle? Are you? Dare you swear to God, are you my own uncle!"
The onlookers looked at Tang Yueshan one after another.
What does Tang Ming mean by this?
Tang Yueshan is his father's brother. Isn't he his uncle?
"Pro uncle" is the first word that people pay attention to.
Can it be said that Tang Yueshan is not uncle Tang's own son, so they are not his own uncles and nephews?
It's impossible. Tang Yueshan looks very much like the old man. No one has ever seen him but believes they are not his father and son.
Tang Yueshan's cheek was hot: "tomorrow! You come down first! Let's talk at home!"
Tang Ming roared, "who wants to go home with you? Dare you tell the whole world what you have done!"
People are more and more curious. It seems that the Tang family has big melons.
Xiao Heng said faintly, "Tang Ming, where did you put your mother in this way? You don't think about others, don't you think about your mother?"
Once the relationship between father and son is exposed, Tang Yueshan will certainly be criticized, but Mrs. Tang can't be alone.
Mrs. Tang couldn't resist loneliness and seduced her little brother-in-law. If such a reputation spread, Mrs. Tang would be drowned by the saliva of the people.
I don't know if Xiao Heng's words awakened Tang Ming's only remaining sense. He took the shocking secret news to his mouth.
Xiao Heng said without leakage, "your mother will worry. Come down quickly."
Tang Ming sneered: "let me down? Dream!"
Xiao Heng asked Tang Yueshan in a low voice, "does he have anything special?"
Tang Yueshan had an idea: "Tang Jiagong."
Tang Ming always wanted to get Tang Jiagong and become the successor of Tang Jiajun.
Unfortunately, Tang Yueshan was not satisfied with him.
Just before Tang Yueshan's departure, they had a conflict over Tang Jiagong. Tang Yueshan remembered that his tone was a little heavy at that time.
"Is it because of this that he will take wushisan tomorrow?"
Tang Yueshan is nervous about housework. At this time, he knows later. Tang Ming has been trying to be the heir in his mind. Even if he is repaired by Gu Jiao, he is almost useless.
But he never gave up. He tried to practice martial arts and recover his body.
He wanted to take over Tang Jiagong with great expectation, but his father objected severely.
Say he doesn't deserve
Xiao Heng said decisively, "give him the Tang family bow."
Tang Yueshan was stunned: "what?"
Xiao Heng said calmly, "announce that he will become the next master of Tang Jiagong."
Tang Yueshan's face changed greatly: "no!"
Xiao Heng said, "is bow important, or is your son important?"
Tang Yueshan frowned: "it's all important... But..."
"No, but." Xiao Heng said, and stopped arguing with Tang Yueshan. He looked directly at the humanity on the roof, "Tang Ming, if you die, Tang Jiagong will always be someone else's."
Hearing Tang Jiagong, Tang Ming's obsession flashed by.
At this time, Gu Jiao slowly climbed up the wall. Because it was all fire oil and very greasy, she nearly fell down several times.
Xiao Heng suddenly clenched his hand buried in his wide sleeve and said to Tang Yueshan, "if you don't bring it again, your son and Jiao Jiao will die!"
Tang Yueshan gritted his teeth and went to the carriage to get his Tang family bow.
Tang Ming looked at the bow greedily.
Tang Yueshan took a deep breath and said with difficulty, "come down and I'll give you the Tang family bow."
Tang Ming said coldly, "give it to me first and I'll come down again!"
"Give it to him!" said Xiao Heng.
Tang Yueshan bit his teeth and threw his long bow on the roof.
Even if Tang Ming was hit by the five stone powder, he was alert to the movement around him. However, at the moment when the Tang family bow flew towards him, he completely forgot himself.
All he could see was Tang Jiagong.
He held the torch in one hand and stretched out steadily in the other.
Right now!
Gu Jiao jumped, grabbed the eaves with one hand and pulled it up. The whole person flipped in the air, fell steadily behind Tang Ming and kicked him down!
