Chapter 651: Overnight
The family collected the money, opened the courtyard door, and let Xia Yu, Li Tie and Wan Liang Jin into the courtyard.
Wan Liang Jin Toe was very proud, and said: "You don't let me withdraw money, but in this world, can you live without money? If it weren't for Brother Kong Fang's efforts just now, we would have to sleep in the wilderness tonight and feed the beasts." ”
What Wan Liangjin said had a certain amount of truth, although Xia Yu and Li Tie didn't want to listen to it, they didn't refute him.
The family took Xia Yu, Li Tie, and Wan Liang Jin to a hall, and it was pitch black in the hall. The housekeeper stepped forward and knocked on the door, but there was no response from the house, and the housekeeper knocked a few more times, but there was still no response.
Xia Yu said: "If your master sleeps, we won't disturb him, you can just arrange a place for us to live." ”
Jia Ding said: "Although I have received your silver, but I can't keep this money, I have to hand it over to the master, and at this time, the master will not sleep." ”
Li Tie said: "The lights in the house are all out, your master must be asleep." ”
Jia Ding said: "I have been with the master for so many years, what kind of temper and temperament does the master have, I still don't know, the master must not have slept." ”
Li Tie said: "I didn't sleep, why didn't I even light up a light in the house?"
Jiading glared for a moment and said, "The price of lamp oil has risen again a few days ago, how can you light the lamp casually?"
Xia Yu and Li Tie were very shocked, with such a big mansion, they must be a rich man with a lot of money, a big rich man, thinking about a little lamp oil, is this thrifty or stingy?
After a while, the door opened, and a thin old man came out, scruffy and patched. If he saw such an old man on the street, Xia Yu would definitely go over and give him a few copper plates.
"Master," the family called out respectfully.
Xia Yu and Li Tie both felt incredible, such a beggar-like bad old man turned out to be the master of this mansion.
Xia Yu thought to himself, maybe this old man was a maverick and deliberately dressed like this.
"What's the matter?" the old man asked the family with his hands behind his back.
Jia Ding said: "Master, these people want to spend the night in our house......"
"Nonsense!" Before the family could finish speaking, the old man's face changed, "Wansan, you are so bold that you dare to carry me behind my back and bring people into the mansion." ”
The family said: "The old man is angry, the old man is angry, they gave the house money." ”
"Gave the money?" The old man's face changed again, and he softened, and asked, "How much did you give?"
The family whispered in the old man's ear.
The old man said, "Oh, in that case, let them be given a place to stay, and remember, the valuables at home must be kept in sight." ”
The old man said that Xia Yu and they were not indiscreet for a while, and then he treated them as thieves and beware of them, Li Tie was very angry and wanted to teach the old man a lesson.
Xia Yu stopped Li Tie and said, "Bear with me, let's leave as soon as it dawns tomorrow." ”
Jiading took Xia Yu, Li Tie and Wan Liangjin to a row of firewood houses and said, "You can live here tonight." ”
The three of them looked at this row of firewood houses, and were dissatisfied, and shouted at the family with ten taels of gold: "We gave you nearly ten taels of silver, and you will give us this place?"
Jia Ding said: "How good this place is, it is breathable and cool, I can't sleep, I can also look up at the starry sky and think about life." ”
"A bastard who is not worth a penny!" scolded Wan Liang Jin, and even scolded people with money.
The family was not happy and said, "If you don't want to live here, I'll give you back the money, and you can find another place!"
Xia Yu said in a calm tone: "Don't quarrel, everyone, it's good here, let's live here tonight." ”
In addition to this ten thousand mansions, there are no people within a radius of ten miles, and Xia Yu thought that it was better to live in a firewood house than in the wild. Jiading also grasped Xia Yu's mentality, so he dared to be so arrogant and threatened to return the money and leave if he didn't want to live.
Xia Yu pushed open the firewood room and looked at it, there was firewood piled up in the firewood room, and there were some messy rags.
Xia Yu said to the family: "Please bring us a few quilts." ”
The housekeeper said, "Okay, a futon is two taels of silver." ”
Xia Yu thought to himself if this family member was a long-lost brother of Wan Liang Jin, how could he fuck with Wan Liang Jin, open his mouth and close his mouth is money, born from the eyes of money, right?
Xia Yu took out a silver ticket, threw it in the face of the family, and shouted, "Get a set of bedding for each of us!"
Xia Yu, Li Tie and Wan Liangjin stayed in the firewood room, and an evening breeze with cool air blew in through the cracks in the firewood room, blowing people shivering.
Xia Yu and Li Tie didn't like to take care of ten thousand taels of gold, so ten thousand taels of gold looked at the roof of the translucent firewood house and muttered to themselves:
"I really didn't expect to live in such a broken house for the rest of my life. A few days ago, I was living in my own mansion, do you know how big my mansion is? It is two or three times bigger than this mansion, and the hillbillies will get lost in a few steps when they get to my mansion, and they have not seen as many high-rise buildings in their lives as there are in my mansion.
"My bed is made of high-quality Yangzhou golden silk nanmu, Yangzhou's high-quality golden silk nanmu, do you know how expensive it is? You take a breath first, don't scare you, the price of a pound of high-quality Yangzhou golden silk nanmu is equal to a pound of gold.
"There are all kinds of jewels inlaid on my big bed of golden silk nanmu, including mermaid tears from the South China Sea, opal from the Western Regions, dragon blood jade from the Northland, and emeralds from the East Mountain, all of which are priceless ...... if you take them out."
Wan Liang Jin was talking energetically, and suddenly, there was a snoring sound in the firewood room, and Li Tie didn't want to listen to Wan Liang Jin's noise, so he deliberately pretended to be asleep.
Seeing Li Tie's snoring like thunder, Wan Liangjin muttered, "Turtle, you deserve to be poor for the rest of your life." ”
Xia Yu looked at Wan Liang Jin and said, "If you can't sleep, go outside and run two laps, don't talk about it here, it will affect our rest." ”
Wan Liangjin pouted and said, "Go out, go out, I'll go pee." ”
Wan Liang Jin pushed open the door of the firewood room and was about to go out, when suddenly, gongs and drums were beating outside, and there was a commotion.
Xia Yu and Li Tie were taken aback and jumped up, Xia Yu summoned the Tianxin Sword and said, "Second brother, let's go out and have a look." ”
Xia Yu and Li Tie rushed out of the firewood room with swords, only to see that in the courtyard of the ten thousand houses, the family members were holding torches and sticks, searching for something everywhere.
The family named Wan San led a group of family members, armed with sticks, and surrounded Xia Yu and Li Tie.
Wan San pointed at Xia Yu and Li Tie and shouted, "Show them all, don't let them run away!"
Xia Yu frowned, took a few steps forward, and asked, "What are you doing here?"
Wan San held a knife, pointed at Xia Yu, glared at a pair of bull's eyes, and shouted: "Don't move, I'll tell you, don't move!"
Xia Yu didn't listen to Wan San's warning and continued to move forward.
Wan San shouted: "His grandmother, you use me as a fart!"
Wan San was so angry that he slashed at Xia Yu's head, Xia Yu didn't dodge, stretched out his hand, grabbed it lightly, grabbed Wan San's blade, and then turned his wrist and broke the steel knife in Wan San's hand into two with a gag sound.
Wan San was dumbfounded, his face turned pale, looked at Xia Yu, and asked, "Are you a human or a ghost?"
"I'm your uncle!" Xia Yu kicked it up and kicked Wansan several meters away, this kick didn't kick Wansan's intestines out, even if Wansan was killed.
"Warrior, warrior, he is a warrior," the family members retreated in fright, looking at Xia Yu in horror.
Wan San and these family members are ordinary people, and killing them Xia Yu is similar to crushing a few ants.
At this time, Master Wan Shoucai rushed over with a group of family members and shouted, "What's the matter?"
Wan San got up from the ground, covered his stomach, and pointed at Xia Yu, his face was blue and he couldn't speak.
Xia Yu said: "Master Wan, we gave you money, stay here with you, why did you call these family members to surround us?"
Wan Shoucai said: "My house has been robbed and lost property, and you strangers are among the suspects. In order to prevent you from escaping while there is chaos, I have asked the family to watch over you. ”
Xia Yu and Li Tie are both upright people, and they are treated as thieves for no reason, and they are very angry.
Xia Yu said: "Master Wan, you have no evidence, why do you say that we are thieves?"
Wan Shoucai said: "I didn't say that you are thieves, I just suspect you. ”
"Why should you doubt us without evidence?!" Li Tie was enraged and shouted.
Wan Shoucai said: "You live in my house, and my house will be stolen immediately, I suspect you, is this not right? If you want to prevent me from doubting, prove your innocence and let me search my body." ”
Wan Shoucai glanced at the family next to him, and several family members stepped forward, preparing to search Xia Yu and Li Tie.
"Which of you dare?!" Xia Yu's eyes widened and glared at the family.
Those few family members felt that their legs were weak, as if they had been hit by a sharp arrow shot in Xia Yu's eyes, and they retreated again and again, not daring to step forward.
Wan Shoucai squinted his eyes and said, "You guys don't let you search, could it be that there is something hidden on your body?"
Xia Yu said: "We didn't steal your things, so we don't need to let you be searched." ”
Wan Shoucai shouted, "If you can't prove your innocence, I can't let you leave here." ”
Li Tie was impatient and said, "Old pimple, don't talk nonsense with them, I'll kill them all, let's go back to sleep." ”
Li Tie raised the bright steel knife, and a murderous aura burst out.
Xia Yu stopped Li Tie and said, "Second brother, calm down." ”
Xia Yu calmed down and said, "Master Wan, in order to prove our innocence, we will help you catch the real thief." ”
"You're going to help me catch the thief?"
Xia Yu said: "Yes, a few of us walking the rivers and lakes can be regarded as having some skills, catching a thief, it should be no problem." ”
