Volume 1 The Butterfly That Can't Fly Over the Sea Chapter 33 The Old Guy's Insight into People
"Ouch! Thank you, sir, if it weren't for you, Xiao Alai and I would probably fall into that guy's hands today. Liu Jiejie hung himself on Zhao Gongbai's body with a handful of snot and tears, wailing loudly, looking like a frightened little daughter-in-law.
"Don't be like this, old man, this is what should be done. Zhao Gongbai, who has seen a little bit of the world, but he can't resist Liu Jiejie's offensive, he comforts the other party while prevaricating the old man who wants to get rid of the octopus sticking to him on his body.
Wei Lai looked at the direction of the courtyard gate with heavy eyes, and after Sun Bojin's father and son and Luo Xiangwu left together for a while, he retracted his gaze thoughtfully, and looked up at the two people who were entangled in front of him and had a rather "ambiguous" posture.
"Ahem, come back so soon, I guess I haven't had time to go to the bun shop to buy steamed buns, right?" Wei Lai said this......, without waiting for him to finish speaking, Liu Jiejie came back to his senses, and he was excited, and hurriedly fell from Zhao Gongbai's body.
"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu nodded again and again, muttering, "I'll go, I'll go!"
Zhao Gongbai looked at the direction of the old man's departure with palpitations, and it was not until Liu Jiejie's back disappeared at the gate of the courtyard that he reached out and wiped the large sweat stains on his forehead with relief.
"...... this old gentleman?" and then he turned his head to Wei Lai and asked.
"Distant relatives, stay with me for a few days. Wei Lai responded.
"Oh. Zhao Gongbai nodded, but then fell silent again, looking like he was hesitating about something.
"Uncle Zhao can say whatever he wants. Naturally, this couldn't be hidden from Wei Lai, so he simply asked directly.
Zhao Gongbai was shocked when he heard this, he had noticed it since he had just driven Liu Jiejie away, and it became more and more obvious when Wei Laiyan said this. He looked at Wei Lai with a calm brow, but saw that the other party looked calm and calm, and he lost the slightest stupidity in his usual days. He realized that the feeling he had just arisen was not delusional.
"It seems that even if I don't come, Sun Bojin can't help you. He sighed and said so, but he was also very interested in not piercing the last layer of window paper that both parties knew - Wei Lai showed his true appearance in front of him that he had never shown in front of outsiders before, this is a thick trust, and as a tacit understanding, even if Zhao Gongbai thought of some reasons, he would not ask why Wei Lai had to pretend to be that in front of people all these years.
"Uncle Zhao laughed, if Sun Bojin is really going to be hard, how can I be his opponent. Wei Lai said softly, his tone was humble, but his expression was calm and calm.
Zhao Gongbai smiled bitterly, and he wasted some energy before he suppressed his desire to ask if the theft of the corpse was Wei Lai's so-called impulse. Then he straightened his face and said, "Originally, I was still thinking about whether to take you away from Wupan City, but now it seems that I am a mediocre person who disturbs myself." ”
"The Zhao family is ready to move away?" Wei Lai was very considerate and ignored the first half of what Zhao Gongbai said.
"Hmm. Zhao Gongbai nodded, his voice a little dull. Wupan City is also a homeland, and leaving his hometown is not too happy for anyone. "Tianyan and Yan'er have already settled down in the Boundless Academy, the Zhao family has already taken care of everything and is ready to settle in Luohe Town outside the Boundless Academy, if you don't think about leaving Dayan soon, to be honest, I won't offend Cang Yuwei for you. ”
Wei Lairan nodded, Zhao Gongbai is a smart person, he has thought of his own way out from the beginning, and Lu Guanshan naturally has some points from it, after all, it is his own family, not to mention helping, but it will not harm them.
"Then I wish Uncle Zhao a smooth journey. Wei Lai said.
Zhao Gongbai looked at the calm and calmness on the face of the boy who was supposed to be a fool, and when it came to his mouth, he could no longer say the words of advice. It is said that he Zhao Gongbai has a good son who is glorious and glorious, but for some reason, when facing the boy in front of him, Zhao Gongbai also feels that his son seems to be far inferior to him.
He could only look at the boy deeply, and then stretched out his hand and solemnly saluted the other party, saying, "Take care." ”
......
Wei Lai did not go to the Dragon King Temple to worship today.
He took a hammer that he found out of nowhere, and knocked on the gate of the courtyard that was overthrown by Sun Bojin, trying to renail the dilapidated courtyard gate, but because of his poor craftsmanship, he was tired and sweaty, and there was no progress.
On the other hand, Liu Yujie, who was watching the play, enjoyed it, squatting at the gate of the courtyard with a big vegetable bag in his left hand and a big vegetable bag in his right hand, eating with a mouth full of oil, and not forgetting to command Wei Lai from time to time: "Hey, yes, that's it! On the left! A little on the left, a little up, a little down." Hey, why are you so stupid?"
Of course, such a commanding spirit stopped after Wei Lai glared at him fiercely. Having lost an important pastime, Liu soon found new amusement, and he began to count the pedestrians passing by the streets, judging them in their manners and even the way they walked.
"Look at that man, he wears a mink in the summer, and you say he is not too hot?"
"That's the iron needle clothing, which hides all kinds of weapons and hidden weapons, it is the costume of the Death Star Gate in the west of Ningzhou, and it can quickly transform weapons during the battle, plus the special material of the clothes, even the silver armor on those Cangyu guards may not be better than this iron needle clothing. Wei Lai, who was mending the door, glanced at the man walking on the street, and replied lightly.
In the past few days, there are obviously many more fresh faces in Wupan City, and looking at their dress, most of them are not good stubble, I think it is the news of the existence of the Guanshan Lance Temple that has spread, and most of the Jianghu guests who seek fame and fortune want to try their luck. After all, it is the remains of the Eight Holy Generals, not to mention that they can obtain his spiritual pattern, or they can get half of the exercises or utensils needed for cultivation, which can be regarded as a great creation for them.
It's a pity that Liu Jiejie obviously didn't notice the turmoil under the seemingly calm appearance of this small Wupan City, he quickly looked at the other place, and a teasing smile appeared on his face: "This woman, her butt shakes so round when she walks, and I can taste a cheap rouge fragrance from afar." Xiao Ah Lai, it's not that the old man is blowing with you, I bet ten big vegetable bags, and this girl is going to see her lover. ”
"What about the remaining two percent?" After the courtyard gate was soaked in water, it was neglected, and the door shaft connecting the courtyard door had been completely rotten, Wei Lai had to find a way to use wood to cut out a suitable door shaft against the original groove, which was too cumbersome. Probably because of this, he rarely had the leisure to have such a boring conversation with Liu Jiejie.
Of course, as the initiator of the topic, Liu Zhijie did not realize that the topic was not pleasing. After getting a response, he approached Wei Lai, squeezed his eyebrows at Wei Lai, and then said softly in an extremely obscene tone: "The remaining two percent, naturally...... Adulterer. ”
“......”
Wei Lai was dumbfounded, and finally realized that chatting with Liu Jiejie was not a wise choice, so he immediately fell silent, and continued to pound the wooden ring in his hand.
But Liu Jiejie did not have such a consciousness, he still talked to himself to those pedestrians on the street, even if there was no intervention from Wei Lai, he was still happy. Liu Jiejie is such a strange person, he doesn't seem to need friends, as long as he has enough food packs every day, he can live happily.
And such people are either born withdrawn, or they have been lonely for too long.
......
It took Wei Lai a long time to finally make the door shaft connecting the courtyard door and the door frame, but the technique was a little rougher than that of a real craftsman, but it could barely be used. Wei Lai was sweating profusely and set up the courtyard gate, looked up at the sky, it was almost evening, and he was about to say something to ask Liu Jiejie to buy some food and come back to eat his stomach.
"Alas, Xiao Ah come and look there!" Liu Jiejie suddenly let out an exclamation, stretched out his hand to point to a certain place on the street, and said: "Tsk, this kid is not shallow! There are two such mothers-in-law at a young age, but it is a pity that it is estimated that even the hair has not grown now, so it can only be seen, not used." ”
Probably because Liu Jiejie's tone was too exaggerated, Wei Lai also subconsciously turned his head to look.
But the three figures walking around the corner of the street were really strange and eye-catching.
The leader was a boy dressed in white, twelve or thirteen years old, like a jade carving, very pink. He held a sugar gourd in his left hand and an oil cake in his right hand, and ate it without a bite, looking very intoxicated. And this is nothing, the most eye-catching thing is the two women who follow him.
One is dressed in green clothes, the other is dressed in purple shirts, both carrying a long sword, the two have picturesque eyebrows, cold expressions, and their appearances are quite similar, but they each have their own charm.
Walking on the street, such three people will inevitably be looked at by the people who come to Wupan City, and the crowd on the street even subconsciously get out of the way to pass these three people.
These three people were obviously not ordinary in terms of clothing or appearance, even if the position they were in at this moment was far from the location of Wei Lai's old house, but Liu Jiejie's slightly thin voice still fell on the ears of the purple-shirted girl among them. She suddenly turned her eyes to look in the direction where Liu Jiejie was, and the frost on her pretty face was spreading, and the murderous intent was spreading.
