Chapter 41: Delusion

Zhao Tai was silent, and only after a while did he say, "Well, brother, I'm leaving!"

"I've been delayed in Linshan City for too long, and I'm afraid I won't leave...... Some things are really too late. ”

Seeing that he was secretive and didn't seem to want to say more, Zhao Ting didn't ask much, but said, "When will you come back?"

"Come back......" Zhao Tai glanced at Zhao Ting with a complicated face, and a sour feeling appeared in his heart, "Have you time...... Come back when you're free. ”

Zhao Ting's expression moved slightly, and he nodded lightly: "Okay." ”

From Zhao Tai's eyes, Zhao Ting also read something, his younger brother, seems to have a bit of a story!

Well, although Zhao Ting is a traverser, he asks himself, in the past six months since he traveled to this world, Zhao Tai really has nothing to say to him, the eldest brother, so he naturally doesn't want Zhao Tai to have anything to do.

I wanted to say a few more words, but Zhao Tai had already changed the topic: "In the future, I will do my filial piety in front of my father and aunt for my younger brother, count me ...... Count me as unfilial. ”

"You ......" Seeing him look like he was parting with life and death, Zhao Ting's face couldn't help but become serious, "When are you leaving?" ”

"It's noon," Zhao Tai took a deep breath, his eyes were a little red, "I told my father and aunt about this last night, and my father said, let me wait for him to come back from duty before leaving, he wants to give me a ride, I ...... I guess I'd better leave at noon, I'm afraid to say goodbye!"

"So, brother, don't come to see me off, just let me go quietly alone. ”

After being silent for a long time, Zhao Ting gently patted him on the shoulder and comforted: "Okay, then brother will do what you want." If you are bullied and wronged outside, run back and tell your brother that your brother will stand up for you. ”

......

......

Standing outside the long pavilion, he watched Zhao Tai's light sword gallop away, stirring up layers of dust on the official road.

After a long time, Zhao Ting turned around and said to Zhao Si on the side: "Let's go, let's go back." ”

Seeing that he was not in a high mood, Zhao Si did not speak, and drove the carriage towards Liuzhuang.

When the carriage arrived at the gate of Zhuangzi, it happened to collide with another carriage of the Zhao Mansion, and it was Zhao Ziqi, the master of the Zhao Mansion who had just been on duty, who had returned.

Zhao Ziqi walked down from the carriage with the support of his subordinates, and when he saw Zhao Ting greeting him, he was a little puzzled: "Ting'er, where did you go in the carriage just now?"

Zhao Ting bowed his head and replied: "Father, the child just sent Xiao Tai away outside the Ximen Long Pavilion, and bumped into his father when he turned back. ”

"Xiao Tai is gone?" Zhao Ziqi's brows suddenly condensed, "This kid, didn't you say that he should wait for me to be on duty?

"That's it, Ting'er, come with me, I just have something to explain to you. ”

"Yes. ”

followed Zhao Ziqi all the way to the study in the backyard of Liuzhuang, and after a conversation between the father and son, Zhao Ting learned that Zhao Ziqi had already sold the Zhao family's property in Linshan City.

Not only that, he also plans to relocate the Zhao family to Yanxia County, which is under the jurisdiction of Gaoding County, Qingzhou, Yanxia County is the maiden home of Zhao Ting's mother Wang Yan, and the Wang family is also one of the top snakes in Yanxia County.

But if you don't relocate and stick to the three-third of an acre of land in Linshan City, I'm afraid that the Zhao family will soon decline.

After all, Linshan City has suddenly undergone great changes, the economy is in recession, the population has plummeted, and all kinds of waste are waiting to be revived, it is difficult to recover for a while, and it is not beneficial to the development of the Zhao family to live here for a long time!

After some words, Zhao Ting was also persuaded by Zhao Ziqi.

"Haven't you seen your uncle for a long time?" Zhao Ziqi looked at Zhao Ting with a smile, "The preparations for our family's relocation this time will be handed over to you, and you will also take this opportunity to take a walk among the great rivers and mountains, take a walk, don't bury yourself in the house all day and only know how to read." ”

"What Father said is," Zhao Ting nodded, "the child takes the order." ”

Zhao Ziqi lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and then said: "Don't worry, I will let Lin Darttou and Li Commander of the Dart Bureau lead them to escort you throughout the process." ”

"Thank you, father!"

......

......

Zhao Ziqi has always been vigorous and resolute, after explaining to Zhao Ting, at noon on the third day, the people of the Zhao Family Dart Bureau formed a long convoy, each car was full of goods, and went out from the north gate of Linshan City, along the official road towards Yanxia County.

"The Zhao family, this is ...... Going to slip away?"

"Hehe, didn't you see it, the people of the Jiang family ran away from the north gate early this morning, and they slipped faster than the Zhao family. ”

"Hmph, if I have the ability, I'll slip away, don't you go and wait for death......?

"Brother Fang, be cautious, don't take me with you if you want to eat prison food!"

......

In this way, the convoy slowly walked out of Linshan City, walked across the Xijing Bridge, crossed the Canglan River, slowly left the boundary of Xiling County, and went farther and farther, all the way north.

The sun went from high at noon to the top, and slowly, to the waning sun.

As the sun sets, the red glow of the maple leaves fills most of the sky, rendering the half bank of the clear mountains in front of you, the land on the road, the white clouds, and the glow of the sun is like a magical giant hand, which opens a soft curtain for the whole world.

It's a pity that the good times don't last long.

As time passed, the sunset slowly disappeared on the horizon, the surrounding light was replaced by darkness, the sun that shone on the earth for a day was tired, even the insects and birds in the mountains gradually decreased, there was no noise between heaven and earth, and everything slowly returned to calm.

"Tell them to stop!"

In the carriage in the center of the convoy, Zhao Ting commanded softly.

Zhao Si, who was sitting on the wheel of the car and driving, heard Zhao Ting's words, hurriedly reined in the reins of the horse, jumped out of the car, and shouted loudly: "The eldest prince said, stop!

"Phew~"

The convoy slowly stopped moving forward in obedience, and a middle-aged man in a blue power suit with a beard at the front turned over and dismounted, strode over, and asked softly outside the carriage, "Prince?"

Zhao Ting lifted the bead curtain on the carriage and walked out, looked at him and said, "Lin Darthead, tell the brothers of the dart bureau to make a fire and cook on the spot, and then hurry when they are full." ”

Hearing this order, Lin Dart's thick eyebrows couldn't help frowning, and after hesitating for a moment, he still arched his hand and said: "Eldest prince, we are now in the depths of Guan Mountain, there are many snakes, insects and beasts in this mountain, and it is impossible to prevent it. If you stay too long, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble!"

"In my opinion, let's let the brothers hurry up, and when we cross the mountain in front of us and get out of the Guanshan Mountain Range, we will reach the boundary of Gaoding County, and it will not be too late for us to cook again!"

"No," Zhao Ting's tone was extremely cold and hard, "You must stop and rest for a while!"

Lin Daotou frowned and wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Zhao Ting waving his hand: "Listen to me!"

Saying that, he no longer paid attention to Lin Daotou, but looked at Zhao Si and said, "Si'er, take out the master's Pu knife." ”

"Yes. Zhao Si answered and climbed into the back carriage.

After a while, he walked out holding a black thick-backed Pu knife, looking at his flushed and struggling face, it was obvious that the weight of this Pu knife would not be light.

When Zhao Si approached, Zhao Ting stretched out his hand, grabbed the handle of the Pu knife, and easily lifted the extremely heavy black-backed Pu knife from Zhao Si's arms.

With two swings of his hand, the blade whizzed through the mountain air, making a sonic boom.

Zhao Ting nodded slightly, obviously adapting to the weight of this Pu knife.

Lin Darttou, who was watching this scene, suddenly opened his eyes, obviously, he didn't expect that the eldest son of the Zhao family, who seemed to be weak and thin like a bean sprout, in front of him could have so much strength.

The weight of the black-backed Pu knife was not under his eyes, but Zhao Ting seemed to be very relaxed when he made it, and he looked like he was lightweight.

He thought he couldn't do that.

It wasn't until Zhao Ting walked into the woods behind the convoy alone with the Pu knife and disappeared into the darkness that Lin Darthead remembered that his task was to protect the eldest prince.

But when he wanted to catch up again, he found that where could he still find the shadow of the eldest prince in the woods?

......

In a shadowy forest behind the convoy, Zhao Ting's face was gloomy, carrying the black-backed Pu knife, walking slowly in the forest alone, occasionally removing the branches blocking the road, as if searching for something.

The dim moonlight spilled through the gaps in the leaves and branches of the trees, and the light cast on the ground looked like silver coins.

The shadows of the trunks and leaves were irregularly distributed on the ground, and the shadows of the trees were dancing with their teeth and claws, like demons, as if they would pounce on Zhao Ting and tear Zhao Ting apart in the next second.

The evening breeze blew up from the valley with a hint of chill over the peaks and into the trees, and the wind collided with the leaves, making a "whoosh" sound.

On a hundred-year-old black tree, a black crow fluttered its wings from its nest on the trunk.

"Quack Quack ......"

Seems frightened!

Zhao Ting turned his head sharply to look behind him, and at the same time, his hands were already tightly clenched on the hilt of the knife.

"No?"

There is no one behind him!

His face darkened suddenly.

He'd just circled around this strange wood, but he didn't even see a ghost!

"Could it be...... Is it my delusion?"

Just when the Zhao family's convoy had just walked through the woods, Zhao Ting, who was originally sitting in the carriage, clearly felt that he and the others were being stared at by a pair of eyes hiding in the dark in the forest!

He was even sure that those eyes were staring at them with malice!

This is also the reason why he suddenly stopped the Zhao Mansion convoy.

But when he came back here to investigate carefully, he found nothing, and those eyes seemed to have disappeared suddenly!
