Pang Ye believes that with Cai Yuan's conditions, it should not take too long to make a name for himself.

The combination of these favorable factors is the reason why Pang Ye came to join Cai Yuan.

Cai Hua was obviously very satisfied with Pang Ye's words.

Cai Hua promised Pang Ye that he would be able to fulfill his wish within a year, provided that he obeyed all arrangements.

Of course, Pang Ye is not a real Pang Ye, but Huangpu Yishou.

This identity was found by Liu Yun for him, the real Pang Ye had died more than a year ago, and not many people knew that Pang Ye was dead.

Pang Ye was a dutiful son, but after he became famous, he went into the evil way, and the only request he made to Liu Yun before his death was not to tell his old mother about him, and not to let her know what he had done wrong.

For the request of a dying person, Liu Yun did not refuse, and could not refuse. Not only did Pang Ye's deeds not leak out, but he also concealed his death, he didn't want a dying old man with white hair to send a black man.

This time, I happened to use Pang Ye's identity to do this.

Soon, someone came to take Liu Yun to rest.

The place where Huangpu Yi guards is a small courtyard in Cai Garden, which is said to be a small courtyard, is actually almost one-third of the area of Cai Garden. The general compound is much smaller than this small compound.

There are dozens of rooms in this small courtyard, and each room has a closed door, and no one knows who lives in it. But there was a strange atmosphere in this courtyard that made people inexplicable.

The room that Huangpu Yi guarded was on the west side of the courtyard, and not far from the room was a door, and it was said that behind that door was outside Cai Yuan.

"That door usually doesn't open, so it's best not to go near it if it's okay. ”

In the room, everything is complete, everything is neatly arranged, and there is no trace of messiness.

A person appears in the room.

It's a woman, it's a cold woman. It was a woman with a hot body, who looked to be no more than twenty years old, with a veil on her face and only a pair of indifferent eyes.

"My name is Xiaolan, one of the stewards of this small courtyard, and I take care of everything. You can only stay in your room for a few days, and you must not go out!"

"And who am I going to call for something?"

Xiaolan said: "You can't have anything to do these days, even if you have something, you have to pretend to be fine." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "What happens if I leave the room?"

Xiaolan said: "It will make you never have anything to do in your life." ”

Nothing will happen to the dead. She didn't say it, but Whampoa Yishou heard it.

Huangpu Yishou said: "What should I do if I want to eat?"

Xiaolan said: "Someone will send it to you." ”

The meal has been delivered, and while eating, someone knocked on the door, and Whampoa Yishou opened the door and saw a food box.

Inside the food box was a large bowl of soup, a plate of meat dishes, a plate of vegetarian dishes, a large bowl of rice, and a pot of wine.

When the food was brought out, when Huangpu Yishou was about to eat, there was a "chirp", the door of the room opened, and a middle-aged man with white clothes came in.

No one invited him to break in by himself, and without asking Huangpu Yishou, he drank the wine glass dry, and after drinking, he shook his head with a sad face and said, "This wine is too hard to drink!"

Huangpu Yishou said: "But you drank it, and the wine was originally mine!"

The middle-aged man said: "I know that this wine is yours, so I drank such a bad wine for you." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "Then shouldn't I thank you!"

The middle-aged man didn't blush, and said, "Don't thank you, I like to help people." ”

Huangpu Yishou was really grateful to the middle-aged man, and said, "Thank you for drinking such a difficult drink for me." ”

The middle-aged man said politely: "No, no, it's worth it." But there was not a hint of shame on his face. On the contrary, it seems that it should be so.

Huangpu Yishou said: "You are not from this courtyard?"

The middle-aged man said: "It's not people from this courtyard who come here, there can only be one kind of people." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "What person?"

The middle-aged man said: "Dead man!"

Huangpu Yishou said: "Are you a dead man?"

The middle-aged man said: "Am I like a dead man?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "Since you are a person in this courtyard, why are you walking around?"

The middle-aged man said: "Who said you can't move around?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "Xiaolan!"

The middle-aged man said: "Does she still say that she is the steward of this courtyard?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "Yes." ”

The middle-aged man said: "She also told you that you can't leave the room, otherwise you will become a dead person?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "That's what she told me. ”

The middle-aged man laughed and said, "You were deceived by her, she is not the manager of this yard at all." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "Then who is she?"

The middle-aged man said: "She's just a madman, a madman who often fantasizes about being the steward here." ”

Huangpu Yi Shou said: "Who are you?"

The middle-aged man said: "I, like you, am the person who came to join Cai Yuan. ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "You walked around the courtyard without any incident?"

The middle-aged man tilted his head and looked Huangpu Yishou up and down a few times, and said, "You are sick." ”

Huangpu Yishou was startled and said, "I'm sick?

The middle-aged man said: "You don't have a disease on your body, but you have a disease in your eyes!"

Huangpu Yishou breathed a sigh of relief and said, "How did you see it?"

The middle-aged man said: "If you don't have a disease in your eyes, how can you not see that nothing is wrong with me." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "What you say is reasonable, it seems that my eyes are indeed sick." ”

The middle-aged man said: "Then what are you waiting for, let's go to the hospital together and treat your eye disease." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "I also want to cure it, but I've been used to it for so many years, and I may not be suitable for curing, so I think it's better to forget it!"

The middle-aged man said: "You don't believe me?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "I believe, I believe every word you say." "He said a letter on his lips, but he didn't want to move his feet.

Seeing that Huangpu Yishou was reluctant to go out of the room, the middle-aged man had to dispel this idea.

Huangpu Yishou said: "Can I ask you a question?"

The middle-aged man said freely: "What do you ask directly?" ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "What's your name?"

The middle-aged man's eyes widened and he said, "Did I ask you what your name is?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "You really haven't asked. ”

The middle-aged man seemed to be angry, and said, "Then you still come to ask me!" After speaking, he actually left angrily.

Huangpu Yishou could only watch as this middle-aged man who came uninvited and left for no reason opened the door and walked out.

Huangpu Yishou didn't chase after him, this middle-aged man could walk around this yard casually, but he might not be able to. From this courtyard, except for this middle-aged man, there was no one else, and he felt that Xiaolan was not lying.

Xiaolan didn't tell a lie, so did a middle-aged man tell a lie?

Why did he say that to himself?

Huangpu Yishou can't figure it out, and if he can't figure it out, he doesn't want to think about it, so he will fill his stomach first.

When Whampoa Yishou woke up the next day, it was already noon.

The leftovers on the table are gone, and I don't know when someone will clean it up.

Who can take it away without you even noticing?

Whampoa Yishou believed that no one in this world would be able to take these things away without him noticing, but this had clearly happened! Could it be a ghost? Only a ghost could do it.

If it's not a ghost, why does this courtyard reveal an inexplicable and strange atmosphere?

On such days, Whampoa Yishou spent another three days.

During these three days, there would be people bringing food at a fixed time every day, but there was always no one to see who had delivered them.

In the past three days, the only person Huangpu Yishou saw was the middle-aged man, who drank all the wine every time he came, and then tried every way to let Huangpu Yishou go to the yard for a walk.

Whampoa Yishou found various reasons to prevaricate at first, but later he didn't say anything, just looked at him quietly.

Outside the door, there was the sound of food boxes falling to the ground.

The meal was set and the wine was on the table.

Whampoa Yishou sat aside.

There was a sound of footsteps, and he came on time.

Huangpu Yishou didn't want to look up anymore.

This time, instead of drinking from his glass, he asked, "Why don't you drink and eat?"

It was a woman's voice that spoke.

It was Whampoa Yishou who came to this small courtyard and saw the first person he saw, the steward Xiaolan.

Huangpu Yishou said: "I'm waiting for someone." ”

Xiaolan said: "Are you waiting for someone?"

Huangpu Yi Shou said: "I'm waiting for someone to come and drink the wine dry!"

Xiaolan said: "Who dares to drink your wine in this courtyard?"

Huangpu Yi Shou said: "A middle-aged man." ”

Xiaolan said: "A middle-aged man whose clothes have been washed and white?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "Do you know him?"

Xiaolan said: "That person is a madman!"

The people in this courtyard seem to like to say that others are crazy, middle-aged people say that Xiaolan is crazy, and Xiaolan says that middle-aged people are crazy.

Who the hell are they crazy?

Xiaolan continued: "That person's name is Smiling Fox, and he is also one of the stewards in this courtyard. ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "No wonder he can walk around in the courtyard. ”

Xiaolan said: "He is not as kind as me, do you know what he likes to do the most?"

Huangpu Yishou said: "It's definitely not a good thing!"

Xiaolan said: "You're right, his favorite thing to do is to kill people!"

Huangpu Yishou said: "The day before yesterday, I heard a miserable cry from the yard, is it the smiling fox killing people?"

Xiaolan said: "Yes, that person couldn't resist his temptation, and he was killed by him when he got to the courtyard." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "Fortunately, I didn't go out of the room." ”

Xiaolan said: "It's good that you didn't go out, or you have become a dead person now." ”

Huangpu Yishou said: "Why did he do this?"

Xiaolan said: "He likes to kill, but at the beginning, everyone was very obedient and didn't leave the room. So he came up with all kinds of ways to lure the people in the room out, and he could kill him as soon as he got out of the room. ”

"Crazy, really crazy!"
