The sick king dotes on the princess and the mad concubine

Chapter 95 V96 Deep in the Bamboo Forest
Early the next morning, Xie Bo took Xie Qiu and a few servants to Xiaofeng Nunnery in the south of the city to appease Master Xiaofeng.

Mrs. Xiaofeng already knew about the strike, and she was also worried. Seeing Xie Bo, she couldn't help but said, "Boer, who leaked this news?"

Xie Bo didn't say it clearly, but comforted him in a soft voice: "It doesn't matter, I will go to the city to deal with it today, mother just needs to stay here, everything is up to me."

Master Xiaofeng felt a little relieved, and couldn't help smiling, but deep down in her heart, she still didn't feel relieved, she tentatively said: "I heard that it has something to do with Nai'er's father, Bai Dafu, But really?"

"This matter involves a lot, so it's hard to say now." Xie Bo replied like this, and said: "I was going to Ganzhou's Zuixianju, and I stopped by to see my mother. I can't delay too long, and my mother will take care of her. Rest, and I will come to see you when the matter is cleared up."

Mrs. Xiaofeng could only nod her head and watch him leave.

At the entrance of Xiaofeng Temple, Xie Bo got on his horse, but he couldn't help but look back. He knew that his mother really liked Bai Nai'er, so naturally he didn't want to tell the reason for this matter now. It hurt her heart, and more importantly, he and Bai Nai'er might not have the slightest chance, so naturally he would not leave a chance for others to manipulate him.

The horseshoes galloped, and the group left Xiaofeng Temple quickly, and entered Ganzhou City at the fastest speed.

Zuixianju is the Baijia restaurant, located in the busiest market, it has the same status as Tianxianglou in Ganzhou, but the business has never been as good as Tianxianglou, now although the door is closed to thank customers, the surroundings are full of people. Many people were unable to buy daily necessities because of the strike yesterday.

As soon as the horses of Xie Bo and the others arrived at the downstairs of Zuixianju, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "This is Xie Bo." The people were in an uproar for a while, and they all rushed up regardless.

What Xie Bo did has spread throughout Ganzhou overnight, causing a strike and causing many people's lives to become a problem.

With a calm posture, Xie Bo entered the opened gate of Drunken Immortal Residence without being affected by the slightest influence from behind. The other attendants hurriedly blocked the noisy and angry crowd to protect the safety of their master.The county magistrate had already heard the news, and arrived at this time with his officers and soldiers. All the people fell silent for a moment. Looking at the cold and serious situation in front of them, they dared not speak out.

Bai Dafu had already waited in the private room of Zuixianju, and when he saw Xie Bo enter the door, he smiled, "Young Master Xie came so early."

Xie Bo smiled faintly, "It's getting late, Master Bai."

Bai Dafu smiled and did not speak, but just invited Xie Bo to the table, but he could imagine in his heart that Xie Bo must have been a little slack due to the pressure caused by the strike, otherwise how could Xie Bo, who has always been lazy, be so early in the morning Appear in front of him?With his own little calculations in mind, he said in a low voice, "I don't know what Mr. Xie is thinking about?"

Xie Bo's long eyebrows also raised slightly, and he smiled in confusion, "Master Bai is so impatient?"

Bai Dafu said: "I'm just worried for Mr. Xie. After all, if the shops have closed their doors to thank customers for a long time, there will always be problems. I think that's not what Mr. Xie wants to see."

Xie Bo didn't speak, but just flapped the fan with his slender and elegant fingers, so that people couldn't see his thoughts. After a long time, when Bai Dafu was impatient, Xie Bo said: "If I think about it, follow-up How will things go?"

Bai Dafu couldn't help laughing: "If Mr. Xie thinks it through, then I will invite the witnesses, make a marriage contract, and complete the three matchmakers and six engagements in the shortest time. I will naturally help you with the rest. Handled properly."

"Oh?" Xie Bo let out an inexplicable sound, and closed the folding fan with a smart movement, his expression seemed to contain some anticipation, "Who is the witness that Master Bai prefers?"

Hearing this, Bai Dafu was elated: "Young Master Xie is not only a prominent figure in Ganzhou, but even in the whole Dagan. Naturally, the person who witnessed the marriage must not be sloppy. I have always had some friendship with that Qinzhou Jiedu envoy. Qinzhou It also happens to be near Ganzhou, why don't you invite him to be the witness of the marriage, so that it doesn't defile Mr. Xie's identity, Mr. Xie, do you think so?"

Xie Bo smiled lightly, but said nothing. It seemed that Bai Dafu had thought out all the details, but how could he, Xie Bo, be so manipulated by others?

"Alas..." Xie Bo suddenly sighed.

Bai Dafu didn't know what he meant, he wondered: "Young master, what's the matter?" He wondered if there was any way out for him?In fact, he came to Qinzhou Jiedushi because he didn't intend to give Xie Bo a way out. Once the marriage contract is signed, there will be three media and six recruits soon. At that time, even if Xie Bo wants to repent, it will be too late, so at this time he is more Unable to relax, his tone became slightly cold, "Young Master, if you have any concerns, then think about it again. Although my Naier is not talented, she doesn't have to marry you. Please let the young master deal with it himself." These words were nothing more than retreating as an advance, forcing Xie Bo to agree to him.

Xie Bo stood up Shi Shiran, "Since Mr. Bai said so, how can this junior not obey? I'll go back and think about it carefully. After I think it over, I will notify Mr. Bai." After the words fell, Close the folding fan, turn around and leave.

Bai Dafu was stunned on the spot, but he quickly came back to his senses and said, "Stop."

Xie Bo turned his body sideways: "What other orders does Master Bai have?"

Bai Dafu was startled, adjusting his ups and downs, his voice was a bit cold, "Mr. Xie, let me remind you that I will not care about the strike of merchants in Ganzhou when you leave this door today. What kind, that is beyond your estimation. Don't think that if you are firmly seated on the throne of the world's richest man, the money will be inexhaustible. You have transported 300 million taels of silver to the disaster area for disaster relief. Now the merchants in Ganzhou If you can’t donate money, I’m afraid that many of the shops under your control will have difficulty in turnover, right?”

"You encourage merchants to stop the market, sit on the mountain and eat the land, how long can you hold on? Even if you, the richest man in Ganzhou, Mr. Bai, can hold on, there will always be people who can't hold on? Do you think the officials of the court are vegetarians? , can you allow your lawless group to disrupt the order of business?" Xie Bo pulled his lips, smiled coldly, and looked back at him, "You are right, I do have many shops that are difficult to turn over, but that is just a turnaround. After all, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, let's see who can last longer."

Bai Dafu looked at the back of Xie Bo who was going away with a pale face, and suddenly realized that he had done an extremely stupid thing. He always thought that Master Xiaofeng liked Nai Er too much, and it was only a matter of time before Xie Bo married Nai Er, but now Taking advantage of this matter to bring this matter to the surface in order to get more benefits, I never thought that Xie Bo is a reckless person, and it is obvious that Xie Bo has already made up his mind, if he fights back, how will he deal with it?
Thinking of the possible consequences, Bai Dafu couldn't help breaking out in cold sweat all over his body, but soon, he comforted himself that even if Xie Bo wanted to fight back, the fact that he betrayed the merchants' privacy was already solid evidence, and he couldn't escape. Thinking of this, he finally had a lot of confidence in his heart, and immediately summoned the housekeeper, asking him to invite all the merchants of some status in Ganzhou to Zuixianju to discuss the next step.

Xie Bo left the Zuixianju, the atmosphere outside the door was still stagnant, if not for the escort of officers and soldiers, those angry people would have rushed over, but Xie Bo acted as if he hadn't seen it, and got on his horse calmly, he thought Thinking about it, he waved behind him, and the county magistrate quickly ran to the horse, wiped his cold sweat and said respectfully, "Young Master Xie, do you have any orders?"

Xie Bo glanced at the plaque on the Drunken Immortal Residence behind him, snorted coldly, and when he turned his gaze back, the light in his eyes was already very faint, "Since you dare to call for a strike, you are quite courageous, just watch here, let Master Bai wakes up properly, if there are business friends looking for them, just let them in, but since they are in, let’s wake up together with Master Bai.”

The county magistrate responded quickly.

Xie Bo ignored the resentful expressions of the people, waved his whip, and the horse quickly disappeared at the end of the street.

His destination was the Xie Family Main Store in Ganzhou. The shopkeeper Xie Hao had already waited in the store. Seeing Xie Bo enter, he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and then greeted the servants to serve tea.

"Forget it, let's get down to business." Xie Bo waved his hand, sat on the main seat, and said, "Have you found it?"

"Return to the master, we found it." Xie Hao cupped his hands, and gestured to the people at the side, and the servants quickly carried a heavily tied man into the hall.

The man was tall and thin, with a yellowish complexion, the clothes on his body were the lowest coarse cloth shirts, and he only had straw sandals on his feet. There was an obvious blue stubble on his chin, but his eyes were very unique. Seeing Xie Bo, he was also calm and indifferent, without the slightest hint of fear.

Xie Bo raised his eyebrows.

Yesterday, he stabilized Bai Dafu first, and then sent someone to track down the channel of the news leaking overnight. He just tracked down and tracked down, but he never thought it would be such a person.

"What's your name?"

The man lowered his head and glanced at the rope on his body, and said: "Mr. Xie is not a government official, and I am not annoying. Isn't this binding thing unnecessary?"

Obviously, even in such a situation, this man still has arrogance in his chest. Xie Bo glanced at Xie Hao lightly, Xie Hao understood, and quickly stepped forward to untie the man.

The man cupped his hands, even though he was wearing coarse clothes, he still had a good posture, "Little brother Lu Yun."

Xie Bo narrowed his eyes slightly, he naturally knew about Lu Yun, the Lu family used to be a well-known businessman in Ganzhou, but later the family fell into decline and all properties were taken over by Bai Dafu.

Xie Bo said: "You leaked the news to Bai Dafu?"

Lu Yunrong said lightly, "No."

Xie Bo raised his eyebrows.

Xie Hao took a look at Xie Bo's expression, and when his eyes fell on Lu Yun, he became icy cold, "It's not you but who? You clearly admitted it yesterday."

Lu Yun said lightly: "I just told one person my guess. As for how that person did it, how would I know?"

Xie Bo said: "Oh? Who did you tell your guess?"

Lu Yun smiled slightly and said, "Before answering this question, I want to make a deal with Mr. Xie."

Xie Bo couldn't help but a little interest rose in his eyes, and said, "How to trade?"

Na Lu Yun said: "I can tell you everything I know, I hope you can let me come forward to help you solve the strike."

The smile in Xie Bo's eyes gradually deepened, and he really became interested in Lu Yun, "Why do you think I will make such a deal with you? It doesn't matter to me whether you say it or not. things."

Lu Yun smiled and said: "Whether I say it or not, if it's not something important, why is Mr. Xie listening to my nonsense here? Even if you are curious, you still want to know, right? For you, the strike It is not difficult to deal with it, but Mr. Xie is already the target of public criticism. If he comes forward to deal with the strike, the people will no longer be grateful for his kindness. They will only think that Mr. Xie has done what should be done, and the Xie family has lost the hearts of the people in Ganzhou. , will inevitably lead to unnecessary troubles, and the richest man in the world, young master, is of course not afraid of troubles, but if it can be avoided, I believe that no one is willing to let others pour dirty water on himself."

Xie Bo picked up the cup of tea on the table and took a sip, then said, "Continue."

Lu Yundao: "I'm not afraid of trouble. In today's field, I'm not afraid of others splashing dirty water on me. If the young master allows me to come forward, I will definitely pick the young master very clean, and I won't leave any trouble for the young master. It will also make Baixin in Ganzhou be grateful to the son."

Xie Bo looked at the man in front of him meaningfully, and after being silent for a while, he smiled softly: "Your proposal is indeed very tempting, but we are not relatives, why do you make such a sacrifice for me? Human beings are always very fair, even if they receive such unwarranted benefits, they still feel indebted..."

But Lu Yun said, "It's not for nothing that I work for the young master."

"Oh?" Xie Bo raised his eyebrows, "Then tell me about your conditions."

Lu Yun was silent, took a deep breath, and said: "My only wish in this life, Lu Yun, is to pull Bai Dafu off the horse with my own hands, and get back everything that belongs to my Lu family... After the strike is dealt with, the Bai family's The property will definitely be impacted, I hope you can borrow my silver to take back the property that originally belonged to the Lu family..."

Xie Bo suddenly chuckled, "It sounds like I'm at a disadvantage in this deal."

Lu Yun said in a deep voice: "I can make an agreement with the young master to pay off the time limit for the silver, and for the young master to share the dry shares in all the shops of the Lu family."

Xie Bo smiled, "If the deadline is up, you still can't get all the money?"

Lu Yun gave a rare smile, but he was full of confidence, "I won't."

Xie Bo quietly looked at the man in front of him who was neither humble nor overbearing. Even though he was at a disadvantage now, he was still arrogant and handsome. After a long silence, he said, "Okay."

Lu Yun's heart that had been hanging all the time also fell into his stomach following the good word Xie Bo.Although he is so calm and composed on the surface, his heart has already become a mess, because Xie Bo is Xie Bo after all, he can take charge of the Xie family and sit firmly on the throne of the richest man in the world, and his strength is superhuman. Only [-]% sure, but unexpectedly succeeded.

"In this case, I can answer your son's question." Lu Yun took a deep breath and said, "I have a cousin who left home many years ago, and your master sent me 300 million taels of silver. , As for the fact that the young master is the one who leaked the merchant's secrets, it was Bai Dafu who called for a thief."

Xie Bo said: "What do you call a thief and catch a thief?"

Lu Yundao: "In the past few days, I have been printing some small picture books through the small rubbing workshop of the Bai family to make ends meet. I accidentally discovered all the private business transactions of Ganzhou merchants collected by Bai Dafu, as well as two letters with Yao Xiang's master shares the same superstition, so it can be concluded that he is the one who leaked the news, and Yao Xiang's master may give Bai Dafu a lot of money to help him gain a foothold in the capital."

Xie Bo couldn't help but look at Lu Yun more. When Lu Yun's father met Bai Dafu, Bai Dafu was just a small businessman, but he didn't know how to hook up with Lu Yun's father who always went to the Hualou gambling shop. Lu Yun's father was originally a The dude, because he made such a bad friend by mistake, became worse and worse, and lost most of the family's assets by betting. Later, Lu Yun and Guan took over the family's property and it was good for a few years. Unfortunately, the good times didn't last long. Bai Dafu He had been coveting the Lu family's property for a long time, and after two years of careful planning, Lu Yun, who had just entered the business, suffered a big fall and lost all his property.

In fact, the gambling house was nothing more than Bai Dafu's black industry. Except for a few of the Lu family's assets that were sold later, almost all of them went into Bai Dafu's hands.

In the past few years when Lu Yun was extremely hungry, his grandmother and mother passed away one after another due to excessive worry, and his wife completely abandoned him because of the absence of the Lu family property. After joining Bai Dafu, in these years, he has kept an eye on almost everything related to Bai Dafu. He never expected that the idiot Bai Nai'er would post it to help him and let him discover this big secret.

Xie Bo is also aware of these past events. He saw Bai Dafu and Yao Benqing's little actions at the beginning, but he didn't say too much. , it is unbearable!

"Where's the secret letter?" Xie Bo asked.

"The secret letter is already in my hands..." Lu Yun said with a light smile, "Of course I have enough confidence to make such a promise in front of Mr. Xie."

Xie Bo asked in confusion, "Shouldn't the secret letter be stored in an extremely secret place? How did you get it?"

Lu Yun smiled coldly, "Bai Naier and I were in the rubbing workshop that day, and Bai Naier accidentally opened a hidden compartment and found it. Although I didn't see the content at the time, I saw her look strange. So I kept an eye out for it, and when she wanted to burn it, I gave the letter to someone who smuggled it in."

When Lu Yun said this, a few strands of intolerance rarely rose in his heart, but these intolerances were quickly wiped out by the surging hatred. Thinking about the hardships he had suffered, those intolerances and apologies were totally worthless.

White House
Bai Nai'er sat hesitantly in her embroidered building. She had always been innocent and trouble-free, but now she was hiding such a big thing in her heart, and it was rare that there was no smile on her gentle face.

The servant girl trotted in quickly and said, "Miss, the master has been detained in the Drunken Immortal Residence."

Bai Nai'er was a little shocked, "Who is it?"

The servant girl said: "It's the county magistrate, but it looks like..."

"What is it?" Bai Naier asked anxiously.

"It was instructed by Mr. Xie..."

Bai Nai'er's heart skipped a beat. Last night she overheard her father discussing the strike with the steward, and used this to threaten Xie Bo to ask him...to marry her. At that time, she was happy that she might really be able to marry To Xie Bo, he was angry that his father had calculated Xie Bo in such a way, but after those happy emotions overwhelmed the anger, they turned into fear instead.

Because although she doesn't know Xie Bo very well, she also understands that Xie Bo is definitely not a person who will be forced to marry. Maybe her father's plan will not succeed at all and will harm her, but her father is only thinking about Yao Xiang's The master supported him, so he was not afraid of what Young Master Xie would do to him in turn, and was still planning how much benefit he could get in exchange for her marriage with Xie Bo.

She felt sad and resentful that she had such a mercenary father, so she couldn't help but rushed in, told what she saw that he had a secret letter with Mr. Yao Xiangshi, accused him of using despicable means, and blamed all these things He gave it to Xie Bo, successfully enraged Bai Dafu, and in his rage, Bai Dafu slapped her backhand, punishing her to ground her feet and think about her mistake.Since she was a child, this was the first time that Bai Dafu hit her, but it was rare for her not to be sad, only infinitely helpless and angry. She wanted to marry Xie Bo, but not with this method.

Now that Xie Bo is obviously going to start fighting back, what should he do?
The maid called several times in succession before Bai Nai'er came back to her senses and said, "Drunken Immortal Ju is just being controlled by someone, isn't it?"

"Yeah." The servant girl nodded vigorously, "There are some gentlemen who, for some reason, came, but didn't go in."

Although Bai Nai'er didn't usually participate in the family business, she was extremely smart, and soon realized that those people must have seen that Zuixianju was guarded by officers and soldiers, so for the sake of self-protection, they didn't dare to go in again.

This is how to do?
No matter how bad Bai Dafu was, he was still his father, and she couldn't watch him being suppressed by Xie Bo like this. Suddenly, she remembered that those secret letters had been burned by herself, and she was promoted again. She got a little bit of confidence, but she didn't feel relieved for too long, she couldn't help pacing back and forth in the room, and finally, she ordered the servant girl: "Prepare the carriage, let's go to Xiaofeng Temple as soon as possible."

……

Lengyue Villa
Compared with the panic and panic of people from all walks of life in Ganzhou, Yin Jieyou and Bailiyu are content.

After the two of them had breakfast, they took the wandering and Leng Xiao with them to visit the Purple Bamboo Forest.

The purple bamboo grove is very large, the wind is clear and the air is mingled with a faint fragrance. Even though winter is about to enter, it doesn't feel very cold.

Bailiyu and Yin Jieyou walked in front, and Liuli Lengxiao followed far behind. Even wandering aimlessly like this seemed to be a good thing.

Yin Jieyou said: "I don't know how Xie Bo is handling it now."

Bailiyu smiled, "With his ability, it will take only two days at most to deal with these matters, but two days is enough."

Knowing that he was talking about the disaster area, Yin Jieyou couldn't help asking, "Master Yao is not that easy to deal with. Are you sure that everything will go well for Wu Luyun?"

Bailiyu braided a strand of wind-torn hair behind Yin Jieyou's ear, and said, "You will know when the time comes."

Yin Jieyou was speechless, knowing that he didn't want to say more.The weather in Lindong is always changeable, and the wind blows soon, Yin Jieyou looked back at Leng Xiao and said: "Bring the cloak."

Leng Xiao hurried forward and handed the black cloak to Yin Jieyou's hand, but Yin Jieyou put it on Bailiyu's body, raised his hand and fastened the tie, "You have to take good care of your body to be Yes, now whether you catch a cold or catch a cold, you are the one who suffers."

Bailiyu is extremely tall, and Yin Jieyou only reached Bailiyu's shoulders, so she wanted to tie the belt of the cloak, so she couldn't help but tiptoe slightly, she tied it seriously, and didn't notice The flash of flame in Bailiyu's eyes, just when she was about to retreat after fastening the belt, Bailiyu finally couldn't help but hook her back with her deep arms.

Yin Jieyou was slightly stunned, and quickly said with some refusal: "Don't be annoyed, they are watching."

Bailiyu didn't pay any attention to it, instead, the hook became tighter and tighter, she stretched out her hand to pinch Yin Jieyou's cheek, and said, "Just look at it, you have to get used to it."

Yin Jieyou blushed slightly, and sighed helplessly, "Why didn't I know you were such a rascal before?"

Bailiyu frowned slightly, with a very serious expression, "Rogue? Where is the rascal? It's just telling the truth."

A few strands of warmth secretly rose in Yin Jieyou's heart. Did he mean that he would always be with him in the future?Although she has never thought about this question, but if it is true, she would like to think about it, right?She was thinking half-skeptically, and suddenly remembered something, and frowned slightly.

Bailiyu quickly noticed the unnaturalness, pinched her cheek, and said, "What are you thinking?"

Seeing that he found himself distracted, Yin Jieyou sighed leisurely, and said, "Yesterday I received a letter from the concubine, and there was also a letter of greeting from Nalan Yu inside." At this point, he stopped talking .

Who is Bailiyu? Naturally, he quickly understood what Yin Jieyou was worried about. He looked into Yin Jieyou's eyes and asked softly, "Don't worry too much, I'm here."

Yin Jieyou sighed again, but miraculously calmed down, "Fortunately, I have you, otherwise I really don't know what to do."

Bailiyu laughed.

"There are times when you don't know what to do? It's really rare."

Yin Jieyou said helplessly: "I never knew how to refuse. Although the marriage contract with Nalan Yu was made verbally by my father, I never took it seriously, but they seem to take it seriously." , I used to get along well with Nalan Yu, but for some reason, I didn’t want to have too much to do with him. I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to talk about it in the end. Especially the third princess and Wu Qianyun, they all regarded me as rivals in love To deal with it, I have no explanation, but now many people in Beijing think that I countered the third princess Wu Qianyun because I am interested in Nalan Yu, which makes people really dumbfounded."

"Nalan is indeed a very rare talent. It's normal to like more people, but why are you so insensitive to him?" Bailiyu asked softly.

Yin Jieyou was silent, and said: "How should I put it, it's too plain, I don't feel it."

The smile in Bailiyu's eyes deepened, and she approached Yin Jieyou's ear in a very low voice, and said, "What is not ordinary? What kind of feeling do you want?"

Yin Jieyou's ears became hot, a little red, but he didn't dodge his gaze. Instead, he just stared at him steadfastly. After a while, he took his elegant big hand and placed it on his chest. The sound of his slightly accelerated heartbeat, Through the skin, it was accurately transmitted to Bailiyu's hands and hearts.

Yin Jieyou bit his lower lip, summoned up his courage, and said, "That's how it feels."

Bailiyu's eyes became more and more gentle, he rarely saw Yin Jieyou's expression, and this expression made his heart tremble, he leaned down slightly, and imprinted a smile on her forehead. Although the kiss is as thin as a cicada's wing, it stirred Yin Jieyou's heart like a feather, and it still shocked her.

Bailiyu said: "I also like this feeling."

Yin Jieyou smiled sweetly, his veins entered Bailiyu's chest, and sighed, "What's more, there is Mrs. Nalan in the middle, anyone with eyes knows that Mrs. Nalan's favorite is Yun Jieyi, that cold beauty. "

Bailiyu stroked the top of her hair and said, "Madam Nalan's thoughts are just her own thoughts. In that position, Nalan's marriage may not be up to him. not the Lord's."

Yin Jieyou bit her lip and remained silent for a long time, before saying, "Then..." She was about to ask whether between you and me, we can decide for ourselves again, but suddenly felt that it was too early to mention this matter at this time. , and she is always a girl, even if she is a little moved, she shouldn't bring it up.

But Bailiyu was like a roundworm in her stomach. She only said one word, and Bailiyu knew it well, and laughed softly: "Although I don't have any great skills, I will never let you be robbed by others." Just go."

Yin Jieyou listened, and his smile deepened.

The two stood quietly like this for a while, and Bailiyu took Yin Jieyou's hand and continued to walk forward.

The purple bamboo forest is very large, and because of the humid climate, some rare medicinal herbs have been grown. The two picked them while walking, and found that the rucksacks behind Liuli and Leng Xiao were full of medicinal herbs. , Has actually reached the depths of the jungle.

There seemed to be a slight smell of fireworks not far away.

Yin Jieyou and Bailiyu looked at each other, this is the purple bamboo forest in Lengyue Villa, could there be people living here?

"Liu Li, go and have a look."

"Yes."

Vagrant quickly put down the medicine bag, went quickly, came not too slow, bowed and said: "Miss Hui, there is a bamboo house in front."

"Oh?" Yin Jieyou was a little curious and said, "Go and have a look."

"Okay." Bailiyu responded, and the group of people continued to move forward. After only a few minutes of walking, sure enough, an exquisite and unique small courtyard made of purple bamboo appeared in front of them. There was a wooden board with words written on it, and everyone approached to take a look, and it was written on the wooden board that people with the surname Xie are not allowed to enter.

Yin Jieyou raised his eyebrows, the courtyard deep in the purple bamboo forest doesn't welcome Xie's family, and he doesn't know who lives there?

Bailiyu said lightly: "It's been a while since we've been on this journey, and there's no one surnamed Xie around us, why don't we just ask for a glass of water."

"Alright." Yin Jieyou nodded, and the wanderer quickly understood. He first stepped forward and knocked on the door politely, but he didn't hear a response. After thinking for a while, he stepped into the courtyard and raised his voice slightly: "Is anyone there?" ?”

But even shouted a few times, no one answered.

The yard looks like it is often cleaned. There are still dried vegetables and freshly washed clothes hanging on the shelves in the yard. It doesn't look like no one lives there. Could it be that the owner has gone out?Yin Jieyou thought about it, and said: "If there is no one, let's go."

"En." Bailiyu responded.

Speechless, he looked carefully at the courtyard again, and was about to turn around and leave, when suddenly there was a wail from the room on the left, and then, a boy in a short shirt ran out with his butt on fire, holding his waist with one hand and pressing his chest with the other, coughing badly Stop, the whole face is also covered with black ash, making it hard to tell.

Vagrant was taken aback, "You...why don't you agree when you're here?"

The little boy coughed for a long time, then pointed at the wandering, gasped and said, "You bastard, my beggar chicken was almost ready, and it was you who suddenly yelled and made me fall short by accident." , Let me tell you, you have to pay me, otherwise what will I give to my old man!" After speaking, there was another burst of coughing.

Liao stared at him blankly for a long while before realizing the meaning of his words, and said in disbelief: "I just yelled, that's all, why did you destroy your things? I think you can't do it yourself, right?" I just said it casually, but the truth is revealed. This is the first time Xiao Tong has been a beggar chicken, but it is embarrassing to be told so badly. He forced himself to calm down and said: "You are the one who destroyed it, you pay me, otherwise today Just don't go." He said and came forward to tug on the wandering arm.

"Oh, you brat." Liuli had obviously never seen such an unreasonable person, and he raised his hand to throw him out, but he heard Yin Jieyou suddenly say, "Liuli." The black hands on him really didn't move.

The little boy seemed to have just realized that there was someone else at the door, and he was dumbfounded immediately, widening his eyes and said: "You people, how did you get in?!"

Liuli looked like an idiot, and said, "Of course he came in!"

The little boy exclaimed, "Impossible, no outsiders can come in here, how is it possible?"

No matter what may be impossible, you let go first. "Liu Li was not in the mood to listen to his thoughts, and muttered.

Bailiyu and Yin Jieyou's gazes met again, and Yin Jieyou said in a low voice, "So I thought we were going on a wrong path. Thinking about it carefully, since we started collecting herbs, we have been surrounded by Qimen Dunjia. After setting up the formation, and we walked all the way, the subconscious mind was destroyed, who do you think it would be?"

Bailiyu glanced lightly at the boy with a darkened face, and suddenly hooked his lips with interest, and said with a smile: "Perhaps this boy can tell us something."

Yin Jieyou's gaze also fell on the little boy, who was still entangled with the wandering boy. Seeing this, Yin Jieyou couldn't help laughing and said, "Brother, let my girl go, your beggar chicken, we will pay you back." How about you?"

Only then did the boy glance over Yin Jieyou, and there seemed to be a flash of emotion on his dirty face, but his face was too dirty, but he couldn't see anything, only a pair of eye punches kept spinning, and then Quickly said: "Miss sister, you said you can pay me the beggar chicken, you are not lying to me, are you?"

Yin Jieyou smiled and said, "As long as you still have a chicken, I'll teach you how to make one."

Xiaotong snorted loudly, "You liar, you said you paid me for the chicken, but you turned into teaching me how to do it. You clearly don't have chickens, how do you pay?"

Liao said angrily: "You boy, my lady is willing to teach you that it is the blessing you cultivated in your previous life. You don't know how to be satisfied, but you still have to make progress." She looked at her sleeves still being pulled by the boy's dirty hands He was speechless for a while, this kid didn't know what kind of trick he used, it was clear that when he made a move to pull, Liuli had subconsciously dodged, but he couldn't escape his random grab, could it be that he...

Liao frowned, his eyes turned around on the little boy.

Yin Jieyou naturally saw everything just now, knowing that this boy is definitely not an ordinary person, and said with a smile: "There is nowhere to find a chicken in the wilderness. If you have one, I will teach you how to do it. In order to avoid your old man annoying you, when we go out, it is also possible to send thousands of them to compensate you."

The little boy frowned as if he was thinking about the feasibility of this matter, but he quickly looked at the sun in the sky and realized that he had no choice. He sighed heavily, then let go of his wandering sleeves, and said, "Then you Quickly tell me what to do, or I'm really going to be spanked by the old man."

"it is good."

Yin Jieyou called Liuli to come forward, and said: "Beggar, you can do it, go and help her."

Liuli looked at his stained sleeves, and was reluctant for a while, but looking at Yin Jieyou's indifferent face, he couldn't say a word of refusal, and followed into the kitchen dejectedly.

The little boy sneered a few times, "You deserve it. How dare you dislike being a beggar for me? I haven't disliked you yet. Hurry up!" Turning around, he said reluctantly: "Water and everything are in the yard, you can drink whatever you want, do it yourself."

Yin Jieyou replied politely: "Thank you."

But Fang Xiaotong had already chased into the kitchen, and his lively and lively voice, as well as wandering mutterings, could not be heard.

Bailiyu looked at the decorations all around indifferently, with some thoughts in her eyes.

Yin Jieyou was also curious, but his thoughts were simpler. Obviously, the old man in the bamboo house would be back soon, and as long as he came back, his doubts would naturally be resolved.

And the old man that the little boy said was indeed not slow to come. Before the beggar chicken was finished roasting, a manly male voice came from the gate of the bamboo garden: "Xiao Chuan, have you finished the beggar chicken you want today?" ? Grandpa is starving to death!"

　A new character has appeared because of my death, shoot me to death.
