Chapter 44: In Search of Traces
Wan Feibai also cried, this time he didn't cry silently, he cried loudly, he hadn't cried so recklessly for a long time, and now, he just wanted to cry.
"That strange old man, who said he didn't recognize him, but called him a fugitive elsewhere,"
"That strange old man always says something ruthless and striking, but he is the most affectionate."
The old man and Xiao Er sat silently on the side and didn't make a sound, Bai Qianqian also watched him cry, because she knew that he wanted to vent, who said that men don't flick when they have tears, fallacy!
Gradually, Wan Feibai's voice became quieter, and Bai Qianqian handed him a handkerchief to help him wipe away his tears.
After he calmed down, she said softly, "Look, don't we already know a little bit about his whereabouts now?" Master cultivates, there are few people in the world who can compare to him, maybe he has bigger things to do, and we just know his news!
Even if we try to chase him, we won't be able to catch up.
However, I still want to go to the Northland to have a look, and it would be good to know more about him, Wan Feibai said sullenly.
Of course, I'll be with you!
The two did not leave immediately, but in order to repay the old man's ancestors and grandchildren, he wanted to teach Xiao Er a little self-defense skills.
The old man naturally readily agreed, and Xiao Er was not hostile, because he felt that a man who could cry was definitely not a bad person, and when he heard that he was going to teach him skills, he jumped up happily.
The old man silently came out of the house, took out the gold leaf, and said that he absolutely couldn't ask for it, the old man of Xuanjing had already helped him, and now he wanted to teach his grandson moves, so he couldn't ask for this money.
Wan Feibai resolutely refused to accept it, let the old man keep it for backup, and it was good to repair the house, but he couldn't refuse, and the old man had to accept it.
He walked back to the house, sat silently on the bed, and sighed for a long time, there are still many good people in this world!
Wan Feibai taught Xiao Er the first to teach the pile, because he found that the second child is not the material for the Qi Xuan, more suitable for the real moves, he recently has a certain understanding of the pile, the pile practice is actually to practice the basic skills, not only to enhance physical strength, but also to improve the qi has a certain help, even if the second child can not practice the Qi Xuan, but there is qi in the body can better create his internal force.
In addition to practicing piles, strengthening basic skills, and then teaching him a move every two days, basically based on boxing, Xiao Er learned very seriously, and learned very quickly, not a single move was memorized in his mind several times, and he played it decently.
If nothing is in vain, go out for a walk with Bai Qianqian and feel the different customs of Dayi.
It was getting dark on this day, but the old man had not yet returned, so Xiao Er hurriedly ran over and happened to meet the two of them.
Master, Sister Qianqian, have you seen my grandfather?
Even if Wan Feibai repeatedly emphasized that he was not his master, it can be seen that he was in a hurry like this, and he didn't care about this title, we walked the whole town, and we didn't see your grandfather, hasn't he come back yet?
The old man set off very early in the morning, carrying a lot of woven bamboo baskets, saying that he was going to sell them on the street, and it stands to reason that even if the business is not good, it will not be until the afternoon at the latest, but now every house has lit the stove smoke, and the old man has not returned.
Let's go look for it together, and you tell me where he sells on weekdays.
Xiao Er was already crying anxiously, he didn't sell it in the town, every time he ran to the Xiushui City next door in order to sell a few more money, it was a big city, and the price was a little higher.
Don't worry, the more you can't panic at this time, we have already walked through the town, to make sure that your grandfather will not be in the town, either on the way back, or still in Xiushui Town, you lead the way in front, let's go together, Bai Qianqian, as the master of the Green Palace, even if she is young, but usually very majestic, listen to her, Xiao Er is not panicked, walking in front of him like flying.
"Silk City is the second largest city in the southwest. β
When they didn't see the old man on the road, they came to the city.
Xiushui City is worthy of being the second largest city in the southwest of Dayi Kingdom, and they set off on the fifth day of the second lunar month, and it is now the middle of April, which is the best day of the year. Flowers are red and willow green everywhere, of course, the three of them have no time to watch,
Under the leadership of Xiao Er, I went to find the place where the old man often stopped to sell baskets, but the old man was not there, and a little boy who was annoyed by the tiger came over, saw the three of them, and asked timidly, who is Sun Xiaoer?
I am, I am, Xiao Er hurriedly stood up, and the grandfather who sold the basket here gave me five cents and asked me to wait here, by the way, he went to the Yang Mansion to ask for money.
What kind of money to beg for? Sun Xiaoer was a little incredulous, he didn't know when his family would have money to come to the door to ask for it.
Grandpa Sun asked me to tell you, the basket he sold was bought by the people of Yang's Mansion, the people of Yang's Mansion said that they didn't bring money out and said that they would send it later, Grandpa Sun said that he knew people before, it was indeed from Yang's Mansion, so he didn't take it to heart, and the big and famous Yang's Mansion would not deceive him, but it was almost evening, and the old man was in a hurry, so he came to Yang's Mansion to ask for it, who knew that he came to Yang's Mansion but was blasted out, saying that the old man was wronging them, etc., after being driven out, the old man Sun saw a little boy standing not far next door, he kept an eye at the time, saw the little boy, gave him five cents and asked him to go to the stall to guardγ
Then do you know how Grandpa Sun is doing now? Bai Qianqian touched the little boy's head and asked softly.
I don't know, I have to do something for him when I get the money, I came here, and I don't know there.
Okay, since you're coming from Yang's Mansion, presumably your home is also nearby, why don't you bring us over?"
The little boy looked at his beautiful brother and sister, and his sister, who spoke so nicely and gently, had already been conquered, and nodded busily.
In fact, the stalls in this market are not far from Nayang Mansion.
The little boy was too familiar with the road, so he took them left and right to copy a shortcut, and soon the palatial gate of the Yang Mansion was seen by them.
They saw Grandpa Sun lying on the ground at a glance!
Grandpa, grandpa! Xiao Er ran up and picked up Old Man Sun, only to find that Grandpa's leg had been broken, who beat you like this? The young man hated it so much, it was really too deceitful.
Alas, it's all my fault, the money is gone, it's gone, and I really did it myself, but I really didn't expect that this big Yang Mansion was completely unreasonable, and the one who deceived me was obviously in the Yang Mansion.
Grandpa Sun, is there any misunderstanding here? Bai Qianqian asked, first, this Yang Mansion does not seem to be short of money, why do you still rely on the account and not give money? Second, since you have already recognized him, why doesn't the Yang Mansion admit it?
Old man Sun sighed when he heard this, where is there any misunderstanding, the basket I worked so hard to make came all the way to sell, just to be a little higher in price, I haven't sold one this morning, and a person came and said that it was from Yangfu, and he wanted to buy all my baskets, but he said that he was in a hurry and forgot to bring the money, saying that he would send it to me soon.
I've been here before, and I've encountered this kind of thing, the Yang Mansion has also bought my basket, but every time I have given money, this time I also recognize the basket buyer, it is indeed the Yang Mansion, I don't doubt it, but the left and right, and so on, and not necessarily someone to send money over, the more I pondered the more I felt uncomfortable, so I came to this house, who knew that they didn't recognize it at all, and they came up to fight, and I was lucky that this old bone was not killed.
Wan Feibai looked at the plaque with the word Yang Mansion hanging on the door of the Yang Mansion, and glanced at the towering tree outside the door, but this tree should be full of green at this time, but if you look closely, it has a dry color.
Wan Feibai was a little surprised in his heart, this was the alternation of spring and summer, why did this old tree wither, he looked around carefully, and said Wait for me to come back, quickly form a layer of enchantment, and the person has disappeared.
The old man, the boy, and the boy were dumbfounded.
Old man, let's find a hidden place to sit down first, I'll give you the bone first, you can't delay it for too long, otherwise it will be easy for your legs to deform and be lame.
Okay, the old man is very refreshing, Bai Qianqian put her left hand on the old man's shoulder, grabbed a little with her right hand, and the old and the young were taken up by her, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived in an alley diagonally opposite the Yang Mansion, the little boy was in the clouds, but the little two were very excited, if only he could learn this hand.
Bai Qianqian's hands were very fast, and before the old man could exhale in pain, the leg bones had already returned to their original positions.
At this time, Sun Xiaoer was not only grateful, but his eyes were full of worship.
Besides, Wan Feibai was sitting on the wall, covered with enchantments, as long as he was not a super-first-class master, he would not find him, so he sat leisurely on the wall and looked inside.
On the surface, I didn't see anything, because there were people coming and going, and one or two maids would walk by, or holding pots, or watering flowers.
Wan Feibai came to the second courtyard again, there were five or six men in the courtyard drinking, the age difference was almost the same, it looked like they were in their thirties, and their faces were full of red light at the moment, and the wine jar that had only been opened fell to the ground crookedly, it can be seen that they had drunk a lot, during which there were still men who drank to their heart's content, simply took off their clothes, exposed their upper bodies, and some made fists again, and those who lost raised their wine glasses high and drank them all.
He ran to the backyard again, it was supposed to be the place where the female dependents lived but it was silent, Wan Feibai's heart moved, looked down, three or three people came with food boxes, and when they unlocked the room and entered the room, Wan Feibai jumped off the white wall.
A breeze blew, and everyone drank and became aware of any abnormalities.
After waiting for a pillar of incense, Wan Feibai came out of the wall and walked straight to the alley.
What's wrong?," Bai Qianqian asked.
I can't tell for a while, let's let the children go home first, and we'll go back.
Bai Qianqian squinted at him and nodded heartily.
By the time the little boy was sent home, it was already dark when the four of them arrived at the house in the small courtyard.
Wan Feibai fetched a bucket of water at the well, washed his face and hands, and when he turned around, the three of them were already in place, staring at him in embarrassment.
Wan Feibai sat down calmly and said, "Everyone in that courtyard is not human. ββ
"All the people in the yard are not people''.
