Chapter 623: The Man Who Stabbed the Toad
Yang Xianmao had long since gotten rid of those two plays, and his mind was now mainly thinking about who had stabbed the vampire frog. It's like Fluttershy said it had a lot to do with herself. Although the responsibility of guarding is not mainly on oneself, after all, there is a period of time when you are taken care of by yourself, such as feeding and carrying to the lady's house.
He now wondered who he really was, why he was doing this, and if he was doing it for himself? Yang Xianmao felt a little strange at Fluttershy talking about it so many times, and her words flickered, and it seemed as if she was doing something in her words.
Yang Xianmao is tempted to ask where Fluttershy has been during this time, and who has testified to determine if she has committed the crime, but he quickly dismisses this idea because he can't be sure when the Vampire Frog was injured, and if he can't be determined, he can't pinpoint who started the attack during this time period, and he can't be sure if it was the Vampire Frog who killed Fluttershy.
If this cannot be confirmed, and a hasty inquiry is likely to startle the snake, it is better to go further and secretly probe.
Yang Xianmao thought that if the murderer found out that he had not injured the vampire god frog, he might attack again, thinking of this, Yang Xianmao couldn't sit still. The big man who took care of the vampire frog really couldn't reassure him, so he still worked hard and waited, he believed that the murderer would come again.
At night.
Yang Xianmao looked at the hourglass and confirmed that there was still more than an hour before the hour, so Yang Xianmao said to Liu Dongyan: "I'm going out tonight, you sleep by yourself, don't wait for me, listen to me." Blow the lights out, remember?"
Liu Dongyan was a little strange, Yang Xianmao had just come to the first day, where did he go in the middle of the night? But listening to what he said so solemnly, he didn't dare to ask, although he was still really worried in his heart, but the young master must have his intentions to explain like this, so Liu Dongyan nodded and agreed, and did not ask Yang Xianmao what he was going to do, if he wanted to help, because she knew that Yang Xianmao's martial arts were very high, and her three-legged cat kung fu could not help anything, but would add to the chaos.
She saw Yang Xianmao take out a set of night clothes from the wooden box and change them on her body, so she was even more sure of her previous judgment.
Yang Xianmao changed into his night clothes, came out of the back window, looked around, and then went up to the room with a zipline, and moved forward carefully. Because he found that the housekeeper in the manor was extremely martial arts, and if he found out, he was afraid that he would be in trouble. There should be other wardens in the manor, too, and they can't be found out.
Yang Xianmao was still very confident in his light skills, especially after being tempered by the flames of devouring power, being as light as a swallow was not enough to describe his light body.
Yang Xianmao moved cautiously all the way, and finally came to the small courtyard, looking around, not far away is the small yard that breeds vampire frogs, from the height of the roof can clearly see the situation in the yard, because at this moment the bright moon is in the sky, and there are lanterns in the yard, which shine brightly.
However, Yang Xianmao squatted until he was close to the son, but he didn't see the mysterious assassin appear, and everything was so quiet.
The big man on duty at the door did not patrol around the wall, but stood at the door, like a door god, and occasionally walked up a few steps in a circle. It seems that his duty is to guard the gate, not the entire compound, if that happens, the killer can easily sneak in from elsewhere and quietly poison the vampire frog.
Yang Xianmao saw that he had arrived, there was still something to do, and he couldn't delay any longer, so he returned home the same way, and saw Liu Dongyan still sitting at the table stupidly waiting for him, although the lights had been completely extinguished, but when Yang Xianmao entered the house, Liu Dongyan still quickly recognized him as the young master, and quickly greeted him in surprise.
Yang Xianmao motioned to him not to light the lamp, changed into his night clothes in the dark, and said after putting it away: "I'm going to send the bloodsucking artifact now, you go to sleep quickly, don't wait for me, be obedient." Liu Dongyan nodded and watched Yang Xianmao leave.
Yang Xianmao swaggered to the outside of the small courtyard, and the guard immediately opened the courtyard door, and Yang Xianmao walked in and came to the pond.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he appeared by the pond, a vampire frog under the water took the initiative to swim to his feet, and probed out to tilt his head to look at him, and circled around the water to spread joy.
Judging from the sutured wound on its back, it was the one that Yang Xianmao had treated before.
It seems that although the vampire god frog is an animal, it can still judge who is a good person, and he also knows that Yang Xianmao is his savior, so he came to greet Yang Xianmao.
Yang Xianmao saw that he was so intimate, so he squatted on the edge of the pool and stretched out his hand.
The Vampire God Frog swam in front of him, poked its head out, and after letting Yang Xianmao touch its head, it sank into the water again, and then spun around a few times.
Yang Xianmao said: "You are injured, I won't carry you today, take your brother away, you make it obedient, don't toss." ”
Yang Xianmao didn't know if this vampire frog could understand his words, so he went straight to the house and came out with a big iron tank, and then scooped up the pond with water, and used a fishing net to catch the uninjured vampire frog.
Strange to say, when it fished the vampire frog with a fishing net, the vampire frog did not struggle, unlike the old Taoist in the Taoist temple when he scooped it out of the pond and struggled frantically, but obediently lay in Yang Xianmao's net pocket, until Yang Xianmao used the net to net it into the pool water of the water tank, and then swam happily in the water tank.
Yang Xianmao hugged the big water tank, said to the other vampire god frog, "Stay well!" and went straight out the door. The strong man closed the door again.
Yang Xianmao walked cautiously all the way towards the inner house, along the way one room after another, high wall courtyards, clumps of bamboo forests, rockeries and pavilions, all places may hide killers, or may cause trouble, if the big water tank in his arms knocks down, the fetish inside will be finished, he must always be vigilant, to prevent any sudden danger, to ensure the safety of the vampire frog in the water tank in his arms.
Perhaps it was his vigilant and piercing gaze that frightened the lurking foe away, and he made the way uneventful to the back door of the courtyard of the Lady Gui.
He put the tank down, knocked lightly on the door, and as soon as he put his hand down, the door creaked open, and Fluttershy stood behind the door and beckoned, "Come in, it's just time, you're really on time, and that's all for the rest of you." ”
Yang Xianmao walked into the courtyard with the big iron cylinder in his arms, and followed the corridor to the hut that had been instructed to him earlier. Place the large water tank in the middle of the room and pull it out.
Outside the door, Fluttershy takes a food box and hands it to him, saying, "This is from Madame, say you work hard, take it." Let me tell you, these pastries are very delicate, they are always valuable, and you have to eat them yourself, and don't give them to anyone else, especially not to your brother. I feel uncomfortable looking at him, do you hear that?"
Yang Xianmao didn't pay attention, picked up the food box and turned around and left, coming to the small door.
Fluttershy follows her and says, "Remember to come and fetch the Vampire Frog at the wrong time, or Madame will be upset." ”
This time, Yang Xianmao nodded, walked out of the courtyard gate, and returned to his residence.
Sure enough, as he expected, Liu Dongyan did not go to bed as he instructed, but still sat at the round table and waited for him, but the lights in the room were out.
After Yang Xianmao entered, Liu Dongyan greeted him and said, "Brother, you're back, I'll fetch water for you to wash." ”
Yang Xianmao shook his head and said, "I still have to go out." I told you, don't wait for me, you sleep by yourself, why are you disobedient, this time I may have to go to squat all night, I'm worried that someone will want to harm the fetish I am responsible for taking care of, so I won't come back at night. You have to get some rest, or you'll look haggard tomorrow, and you'll be suspicious, so you'll have to listen to me this time and sleep well, and you'll only be able to take care of me until you're recuperate, do you hear?"
Liu Dongyan agreed, but Yang Xianmao was still not at ease, and said, "I watched you take off your clothes and go to bed, hurry up, I'll leave after you fall asleep." ”
Liu Dongyan suddenly blushed, glanced at him, turned around and began to undress.
She took off her coarse cloth shirt outside, then climbed onto the bed, pulled the quilt to cover it, looked at Yang Xianmao and said, "Is it okay?"
Yang Xianmao walked to her bedside, patted her head and said, "Lie down and sleep obediently, don't get up again." When I come back and see you still up, I'm angry. I'm telling you, I know you care about me, but you don't need to show that you don't sleep, that would just make me worry about you, you see?"
Liu Dongyan nodded seriously and said, "I remember, brother, you go, be careful." ”
Yang Xianmao floated out of the window with satisfaction, closed the window, still used a flying rope to go up to the roof, moved forward along the roof, and quietly came to the roof next to the vampire frog courtyard, showing half of his head on the roof, carefully checking the situation below.
He waited for a long time, but there was still no movement below, and the big man guarding the door had changed to a night shifter, standing there majestic, but still not moving around, still being there as a door god.
Yang Xianmao felt a little sleepy, so he ran the Five Birds Opera in his body, and after a few weeks, his spirit was suddenly refreshed.
His body has been tempered thousands of times, and he has super resistance, as long as he runs the Five Bird Opera, his body will soon return to normal.
In the dead of night, the cold moon slowly moved in the sky, and the shadows of the trees below gradually lengthened.
At this moment, Yang Xianmao keenly noticed that through the shadow of the house, a figure was quietly coming this way, and the direction he was walking should be the back wall of the small courtyard.
Yang Xianmao stared closely at the person who came to the back wall, only to see that he was wearing a night robe, wearing a black scarf to cover his face, and carrying a long sword on his back. He looked around, and then he climbed the wall lightly, and crossed it into the courtyard.
Yang Xianmao stared at him, took a tile in his hand and checked it, the distance is so far, the plum blossom needle is too light, it can't hit so far, the tile is more handy, and it is okay to use it as a hidden weapon.
I saw that the thin black shadow below turned into the courtyard, and tiptoed to the pool, looked around, and stared at the vampire frog in the pool. Then, he slowly drew his sword from his back, then cautiously approached the surface of the water, pointing at the vampire frog in the water.
