Ripe Town 繁城之下 Episode 11

The appearance of Lu Jinxin declared that Lu Zhi's plan was completely in vain. Even if Lu Yuan died suddenly, he would not be the one to inherit the property, so Lu Zhi told Lu Zhong.

Only then did Lu Zhong know that Lu Yuanbao had been wary of him for many years. At first, he only heard Lu Yuanbao say that he had committed a lawsuit and left home, and he never went back after that. Unexpectedly, Lu Yuanbao has been hiding it from everyone for so many years, passing money to his brother Lu Jinxin through the store counter. Lu Yuanbao could feel that his time was running out, so he specially asked Lu Jinxin to rush to Zhe County.

Early in the morning at the Ying County Yamen, Magistrate Wei saw another note stuck in front of the door with a dagger. The note said: The murderer is about to commit another murder in the grove of the ruined temple outside the south gate, so go quickly.

Song Chen understood that the murderer wanted to use the police to arrest people again, but there were no more clues at the moment, and only when he got to the scene would he know who the murderer wanted to deal with.

In front of Yue Banxian's fortune-telling stall, a bearded man wearing a bamboo hat suddenly appeared. Yue Banxian recognized his old friend at a glance by his voice. The bearded man said that he could explain his life experience to the outside world in exchange for a reward. Yue Banxian questioned what happened some time ago. Whether the series of murders were related to Big Beard, Big Beard did not answer directly. Yue Banxian made his own judgment. Although he did not know where the other party had been and what he had done in the past twenty years, he never believed that Big Beard could kill people. Big Beard didn't explain too much, he just told Yue Banxian to act according to his own wishes.

At night, Yue Banxian went to the ruined temple grove to wait as usual. Qu San had been watching from a distance earlier and saw Zhang Jizu appearing. Zhang Jizu asked Yue Banxian what clues he had. Yue Banxian lit a hexagram firecracker and told Zhang Jizu that he would find a donkey along the way. , the truth is hidden on the back of the donkey. Zhang Jizu was worried that Yue Banxian was cheating and took the money and ran away, so he threatened Yue Banxian.

All the detectives who were hiding in the grass showed up, preparing to arrest Zhang Jizu. Liu Shiqi appeared in time. The scene was filled with swords, guns and sticks. In the chaos, Big Beard suddenly appeared and took Yue Banxian away. Seeing that it was difficult to escape, Zhang Jizu asked Liu Shi Qi Ye shouted and retreated separately. After the two of them were alone, Zhang Jizu was captured by the trap arranged by the police in advance.

The next day, Xue Juren went to the Yamen in person and applied to Song Chen for a deposit. He could be summoned at any time when the case was opened for trial. Song Chen deliberately stated that Zhang Jizu was related to several recent murder cases and wanted to observe Xue Juren's attitude. . Xue Xiaolian was noncommittal and only left one sentence: If Zhang Jizu was beaten into a trap, he would definitely ask for an explanation.

Wei Zhixian heard the two talking behind the screen and suggested that Song Chen might as well give Xue Xiaolian a favor. Since there was no accuser or evidence, it was reasonable to release Zhang Jizu.

Song Chen still wanted to get some clues from Zhang Jizu, but Zhang Jizu was very strict and had to be released after some torture.

Zhang Jizu came out of the Yamen with scars all over his body. When he was about to return to Xue's house, he was kidnapped by a carriage. The driver was Big Beard. Lu San was watching from the side, but Big Beard fired a blank shot at Lu San as if he had expected it. Lu San was frightened but not injured.

The next day, Zhang Jizu turned into a dead body and was hung in front of the ruined temple dressed as Bai Wuchang. He left a message beside him: If you can't serve people, how can you serve ghosts.

Qu Sangeng and Gao Shicong rushed to the scene immediately and found Zhang Jizu's body. At this moment, both of them knew that Zhang Jizu was the former Zhang Gui, so they searched nearby for the donkey mentioned by Yue Banxian. The two of them searched separately. Qu Sangeng He was the first to find a donkey by the river. He opened the cushion and found a note, which he quietly put into his lapel. After reuniting with Gao Shicong, Qu Sangeng did not tell the secret.

Gao Shicong went to Wu Lei Study for a stroll, and listened to Feng Kehui and Leng Guier talking about Qu Sangeng having discovered the secret hidden by Yue Banxian. He was worried that Gao Shicong would be implicated, so he did not tell the truth. While they were talking, Qu Sangeng Zhao Ju's home has been found.

Qu Sangeng got straight to the point and directly pointed out that Zhao Xiaolian was the Lu Zhi of twenty years ago. Xue Juren didn't take Qu Sangeng's inference to heart at all. When Qu Sangeng took out the letter and told Xue Xiaolian that the murderer was Lu Buyou, Xue Xiaolian's mind instantly returned to twenty years ago.

After Lu Buyou took refuge with Lu Yuan, he became good friends with Mi Xing's second young master Yue Ji, who later became the fortune teller Yue Banxian. Because of a fight with a schoolboy, Lu Zhi's Xiaobaozi came to the rescue, and the four of them became good friends. Lu Buyou was proficient in studies and kind-hearted. After getting along for a while, Lu Zhi began to regret what he did to Lu Yuanbao. I want to give up my previous plan.

After telling Lu Zhong, Lu Zhong said that he could not stop, otherwise he would be a mute for the rest of his life, and Lu Zhi would also be a servant for the rest of his life. Despite this, Lu Zhi was still hesitant.

A few days later, Lu Zhi was called to Lu Jinxin. Lu Jinxin asked Lu Zhi to be his son's book boy. Lu Yuanbao, who was standing by him, suddenly mentioned the past of Lu Zhi recognizing him as his godfather and ridiculed Lu Zhi again. This time, Lu Zhi He strengthened his determination to take revenge.

Lu Zhi asked Cheng Yizhi to increase the dosage of the medicine, but Lu Yuan suddenly died. He thought everything was perfect until one day, chef You Er had a birthday and only invited Lu Zhi. You Er told Lu Zhi's secret.

It turned out that You Er, Chen Wang and Zhang Gui were drinking buddies, and they would inevitably spill the beans when they were drunk. Over time, You Er guessed the plans of several people, and it was not until Lu Yuan died suddenly that he explained to Lu Zhi, I hope to get a share of the property by joining the partnership.
