Chapter 22: The Afterhand
Lu Mansion is brightly lit, and countless small dots are gathering in various martial arts arenas, like a silent torrent of steel.
"Boss, what's the situation, who is this going to war with?" On the school grounds, a newly arrived leather-armored warrior asked in a whisper.
"Shut up! Keep your mouth shut! The man in the lead straightened his back, did not look back, and scolded in a low voice, his tone full of anger. It seems that he is usually too indulgent to his subordinates, and he doesn't look at what kind of battle this is.
Just when he was faintly uneasy, a cold gaze shot over, it was the silver-armored warrior at the front of the school field. The Lu Mansion is highly hierarchical, and only the silver-armored warriors are the real core combat power of the family. He just skimmed the cold light in his afterglow, and his legs and stomach almost went weak. Hurriedly looked straight ahead, not moving.
Time was passing quietly, and I don't know how long it took, he finally felt the cold disappear, but he didn't dare to turn his head to confirm, but he scolded the mouthy subordinate behind him in his heart, and secretly decided that he must be severely punished for this incident.
The silver-armored warrior was expressionless, his gaze swept over the faces of everyone in front of him.
"Let's go."
——————————————————————————————————————
In the backyard of the Lu Mansion, the man had just sat down on the low stool for a while when there was a knock on the door, and the corners of his mouth curved for the first time.
"Bang Bang!" After just a few breaths, it turned into a dense slamming sound, which made people worry about how long this broken door could last.
"Qi Da, old bastard, open the door, I know you're inside."
"Fuck off, I'm not here!" It turned out that the black shadow was under the pseudonym Qi Da, and he was invisible in the Lu Mansion, and he tried his best to pretend to be full of energy, and he also shouted.
"If you don't open the door again, Lao Tzu will call a few other people to see what else you have left."
"Lao Tzu is eating, and then open the door after eating."
When the man heard this, he immediately became angry: "Get out, leave some for Lao Tzu, open the door quickly, Lao Tzu has wine here!" ”
The door slammed open, and the man outside the door was pounding on the door, almost flashing his waist.
"If you have wine, don't say it early."
The name of the person who smashed the door was Wang Lezi, who lived in Qingxu City for half his life, making a living by working part-time jobs. He and Qi Da both live in slums, and they have known each other since they came and went. As soon as the king leper entered the door, he went straight to the yard, hurriedly lifted the lid of the pot, and was not afraid of being hot, and grinned when he saw the full amount of food.
"Old boy, you are not authentic, there are delicious foods to hide from us, if it weren't for Lao Tzu's nose, you would really have hidden it."
"Dognose." Qi Da had a look of disgust on his face, but he was very happy in his heart, this was the last hand he prepared tonight, and now it seems that the effect is very good.
What is boiling on the fire is blood sausage, the main ingredient is the most worthless pig blood and large intestine, and there are some other internal organs, the smell is very strong, and it can't cost a few children in a big pot, but it is Wang Lezi's favorite food. In order to enter the Lu Mansion as a short-term worker, Qi Da needs to get the friendship of this kind of person, and it is for this scene. There's nothing faster than eating the same pot.
At the beginning, Qi Da was extremely resistant to such fishy food, and he couldn't even eat it, but as a short-term worker, he couldn't show any hobbies that couldn't match it, and after a few times, he gradually fell in love with such food, and after getting paid, he always had to cook some to satisfy his hunger. Tonight's pot was the best time to boil, and as he wished, it hooked Wang Lezi.
"What about wine? If you don't have wine, don't want to rub Lao Tzu's blood sausage, Lao Tzu has been squatting all night, and he will be taken advantage of by you bastard. ”
"Hey, hey, here." Wang Lezi took out a small crockpot from behind him.
Qi Da took it with his hand, raised his nose and smelled it, it was filled with the cheapest grain wine, and immediately scolded: "I still want to rub Lao Tzu's blood sausage with this thing, Lao Tzu's pot is stuffed, no, no." As he spoke, he went to block Wang Lezi's chopsticks, but he didn't give him chopsticks.
"Oh, when the salary is paid, Lao Tzu will invite you to drink again, eat quickly." At this moment, how could Wang Lezi go, his left hand went to Qi Da's chopsticks, and his right hand took out the chopsticks like lightning and clamped a piece of large intestine, regardless of the heat, and stuffed it into his mouth. While being burned, he smashed his mouth, as if he was very satisfied with the taste.
Qi Da no longer complained, the goal was achieved, he poured some wine, filled a bowl of blood sausage, and ate it by himself. A trace of blood flowed out of his mouth, melted into the blood sausage in the bowl, and then he swallowed it into his belly, his face turned pale, and immediately reddened by the heat. Wang Lezi was eating there, and he didn't notice anything else.
"Bang Bang! Open the door! The knock sounded again.
", who else did you kid tell me?" Qi Da took the lead.
"No, how is it possible,, which one is going to stir it up." Wang Lezi got up angrily and went to open the door.
But as soon as the door was half opened, Wang Lezi became a nodding and bowing appearance.
"Oh, my lord, you ...... How did you get here. ”
The person who came was the guard in the house, fully armed at this time, and there were many people behind him, Wang Lezi saw the cold light reflected by the solid steel, and his voice trembled.
"It's okay, routine checks, who's there."
"That's it...... It's just me and Qi Da. ”
The Wang guards went straight inside, this was a dilapidated courtyard, but they came to Qi Da in a few steps. Qi Da hurriedly got up, behaving exactly like Wang Lezi, and without waiting for the guards to ask, he directly handed over all the questions.
"Big ...... My lord, we didn't eat until we finished our work, absolutely...... Definitely not lazy, these foods are bought from outside, really, I bought them from the butcher of Chengdong Xie early in the morning......"
The Wang guard was expressionless and glanced at Qi Da, "You guys have been here all night?" ”
"Yes!" "Yes!" The two scrambled to answer.
"Let's go!" The guards and others came and went faster, and there were obviously many more people to interrogate. It turned out that after Lu Hou recovered from the panic, the first thing he thought of was that there was a traitor, and he mobilized the guards in the palace to check everyone in the mansion, especially the most mobile backyard handyman. Qi Da's last hand played a role at this time, and some people testified that it was much more convincing than he said alone.
The two of them sat down under the low stool with palpitations, but they didn't eat anymore for a while, only the ancient capital of the stove was bubbling and bubbling.
"I'm scared to death, what the hell is going on." As if afraid of recruiting the guards back, Wang Lezi lowered his body.
"How do I know, did you see it just now, the guards are all carrying spears, you work a lot of part-time jobs, have you seen it?" Qi Da asked in accordance with Wang Lezi's words.
"Not really."
"Or maybe the owner lost something?"
"I've lost anything and never seen this kind of battle, forget it, it's none of our business, come on, let's continue to eat."
Under the cover of night, in the small Qingwei City, various forces were agitated.
