Chapter 2 Letters and Oral Messages
"I'll be leaving soon, so if no one asks, don't say it, you know?"
"Uh-huh, got it. ”
Xu Heng and Xiao Xi stood next to a rockery in the back garden of King Qi's mansion, and told their personal maid what they said before, and the latter nodded yes again and again, completely unable to see that this beautiful face was still full of reluctance just now. Xu Heng looked at Xiao Xi's appearance and regretted it a little in his heart.
It's better to throw her hole into the room, but the big husband said it......
Forget it, it's just a trifle, it doesn't matter.
Xu Heng waved his hand at the men's beauty, and as soon as he turned around, a greeting came from behind him: "Hey, son, wait!"
"Changed your mind?"
Xu Heng turned around, but saw the woman take off her hat, spilling out three thousand green silks, and after a pair of big smart eyes swept around her body, she bit her lip and said, "Childe, you want to wear this all the time?"
The man was stunned.
……
A full quarter of an hour later, Xiao Xi looked at the new man in front of her, nodded and said, "Isn't Childe much better now than just now?" ”
Xu Heng looked into the mirror, and saw that the man in the mirror was dressed in a cyan power suit, which was neat, and he was many times better than the down-and-out beggar just now. He touched his chin, and in his heart he was still very satisfied with his current appearance.
"That's right," Xiao Xi remembered something again, turned around and went back to the back room, took out a brocade bag and handed it to Xu Heng, who took it and pinched it, there was a lumpy object in the bag that was cold and hard, it should be dozens of taels of silver.
The maid smiled and said: "I see that the clothes that the son changed are penniless, I guess the son must have forgotten the matter of silver, Xiao Xi's private money has more than 1,000 taels of silver tickets and 20 taels of broken silver, and the son will spend it on the road first." ”
The maid gave the master two pieces of silver?
Xu Heng's face was a little strange, but Xiao Xi's hand was just a charcoal in the snow. I couldn't use it in the mountains and wilderness before, but now I have returned to the place where the crowd gathers, and it is much more convenient to have enough silver in my hand.
It's just that he has never been short of money since he was a child, and he always thought about other things and forgot about this stubble.
Since the other party thought of it, he would save himself in the future, but he was a little reluctant on his face: "Then, these silver will be found after I leave." You can ask for more. ”
"Childe said before that no one asked, and he couldn't say it, if no one had asked about that little sister's private money, wouldn't it be a bamboo basket to fetch water?"
"Ahem, then you'll talk about it in five days after today. ”
The maid smiled even more: "Five days, what if the son doesn't leave after five days?"
"That ......"
"Haha, okay, okay," Xiao Xi held on to the table next to her and laughed out loud, "When have you ever seen my Xiao Xi suffer a loss since I was a child?!"
The big maid welcomed the master out of the door, lowered her head, lowered her body slightly, and bowed: "Son, if you have something, hurry up and do it, Xiaoji doesn't dare to delay Childe's big event!"
Xu Heng also came back to his senses, laughed at himself, and punishively messed up the maid's hair, the breeze blew on her face, and when the maid stood up, she looked around, and the man was gone.
Xiao Xi looked up at the sun in the sky, calculated that the time was almost up, restrained Wen Jing Xianshu's expression, and ran in the direction of King Qi's study with an excited face:
I'll tell you, eldest son!
The second son is back......
……
Xu Heng didn't have any hope for Xiao Xi's secrecy, so he wasn't surprised at all when he came out of the martial arts arena to see his brother standing outside with his friends.
His eldest brother was as mature and steady as ever, but Yu Qisi changed his previous profligate appearance, and was wearing clean and tidy clothes, standing in front of his brother and smiling very gently.
Xu Jin smiled at his younger brother, who he hadn't seen for a long time: "I'm back, did the journey go well?"
Thinking of this trip to the ghost city of Xudu, Xu Heng smiled bitterly: "It's not going to be smooth or not, but it seems to have caused a lot of trouble." ”
Xu Jin frowned and didn't continue to speak, Yu Qisi was anxious to know his friend's situation, and hurriedly spoke: "Have you encountered any clues about Chai Xing in the ghost city of Xudu?"
"He's not dead,"
"Really?!Great!!"
Yu Qisi stepped forward excitedly and grabbed Xu Heng's arm, his joy was overflowing, and he didn't hear the second half of Xu Heng's next sentence: "It's just ......"
Xu Heng was already excited when he saw Chai Xing in the ghost city of Xudu, so what he was worried about at the moment was another thing - the Yin official uniform that Chai Xing was wearing.
"Chai Hanlin is indeed a talent, if he really doesn't die, of course it's good, but, Brother Heng, what is your next half of a sentence?"
Xu Jin was calmer than Yu Qisi, who was concerned about chaos, and seeing Xu Heng's unnatural face, he naturally knew that although Chai Xing was not dead, his condition should not be very good.
Yu Qisi also calmed down, looked at Xu Heng, and ominous thoughts suddenly appeared in his heart.
"I met Chai Xing in the ghost city of Xudu, he is still alive, but he can't come back in a short time......" Xu Heng said halfway, and found that the explanation was a bit complicated, so he took out a stack of letters from his arms and handed it to Xu Jin: "I was going to tell you the matter in the letter, but since I met here, I don't have to bother." ”
Xu Jin looked down at the five or six letters in his hand, and after taking away the top one for himself, Yu Qisi was below, and then down was "Jiangnan Wanjian Villa Jianchen", "Mobei Leijiabao Lei Yan", "Xijing Gambling Emperor Zhai Luo Jiuxin" and a series of names with addresses.
Xu Jin understood the meaning of his younger brother at a glance: "I will send the rest for you." ”
"There are other people who have something to do with the ghost town of Xudu, and there is Brother Lao. Xu Heng thanked his brother, and then hugged his fists at the two of them, "Big brother, Qi Si, I know that you are curious about the results of this temptation of the ghost city of Xudu, and I have also written everything into the letter, and you will know it at a glance." ”
"Su Su has changed a little in the ghost city of Xudu, and he needs to rush back to southern Xinjiang for treatment as soon as possible, since the master is not there, then the younger brother will not be in Shenjing, and there will be a lot of delay. ”
"Okay, you know what to expect. Xu Jin patted his brother on the shoulder, "Be careful all the way, tell me if you have difficulties." ”
Yu Qisi's face still had a little joy on his face, and he was a little reluctant to face the sudden farewell of his best friend: "You are really ......"
Xu Heng met Yu Qisi's gaze and said firmly: "I will definitely bring Chai Xing back!"
"When the time comes, our brothers will go to Chunfeng Lou to drink!"
Yu Qisi patted Xu Heng's shoulder fiercely, and a smile appeared on his face again.
"Hmm!" Xu Heng responded, turned around, and wanted to leave for the second time today.
"By the way, Brother Heng, King Jin sent a message yesterday, saying that you have time to go to the imperial tomb. ”
