Chapter 409: Mixed Feelings

After the conversation, they were busy for most of the night, and the two people who lived in the craftsman's courtyard only rested for about two hours. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The sky is not yet fully bright, and Master Wan has something on his mind...... Therefore, he still got up earlier than Ah Rong.

He habitually went to the corner of the courtyard and glanced at the sky directly above the small courtyard, and then Master Wan lit the fire.

When the stove was hot, he began to prepare breakfast for two.

There was nothing to eat, just the little soup left over from the overnight as the base.

When Ah Rong got up, he saw a corner of the courtyard through the window.

The water in the small pot on the stove gradually emitted white steam, and Ah Rong knew that Master Wan was going to get something to eat.

Xiao Lin is not here, and this errand has to be taken care of by the other two people in the small courtyard.

Ah Rong thought of another companion who was missing, and couldn't help but sigh as he walked out of the house.

After a simple wash, Master Wan happened to come out of the warehouse, and when he saw Ah Rong standing in the courtyard, he pointed to the pot and said, "Let's just drink some hot soup." ”

After speaking, Master Wan's gaze once again swept over the car parked in the courtyard.

He was a little distracted, silently thinking about his thoughts as he looked at the car.

Seeing this, Ah Rong changed the topic and said, "Master Wan, why don't I go to the big kitchen and bring some ingredients back in a while?" ”

He asked tentatively.

Master Wan came back to his senses when he heard this, looked at Ah Rong and thought for a few seconds, then shook his head and said, "No need to go, we don't have to be so troublesome." ”

He instructed Ah Rong: "The matter of the carriage must be done as soon as possible, so we will take a moment, and we will do things first this morning." ”

As he spoke, Master Wan glanced at the door on the east side of the courtyard, then turned to Ah Rong and continued: "However, when it comes to noon, I still have to run, and I plan to go to Lady Liu's side to inquire about the news." ”

Master Wan has been thinking about Xiao Lin's whereabouts in his heart, and he will definitely have to run when the time comes.

You must know that the small courtyard where they live is isolated in the corner of the house, and no news has come here so quickly.

But the missing people are related to them.

Hearing that the female official said that she would send people around the town to search for the missing person, Master Wan felt very uncomfortable as soon as he remembered the poisoning in the camp in the first place.

If it weren't for Xiao Lin's timely rescue at that time, and he took the risk of not being cured, he might not be able to stand here!

It's not just a few words that can explain his mood, including the complex feelings in his heart, how can he understand it if someone else is not him?

When he arrived at the mansion, Master Wan could understand the dangerous situation in the mountains at that time from the fragments that Chen Xiang told Xiao Lin.

It's definitely not a joke that can be brought over, although the poison in it also makes people question, but it can't change the fact that Xiaolin took a righteous shot!

General Han is in charge of the vanguard battalion, but not everyone has the courage to step up at a critical moment.

Even if that person understands medical skills, or will shy away from weighing the risks and not being willing to take responsibility!

...... Several thoughts flashed through Master Wan's heart, and after a while, he looked at the pot of hot soup with gloomy eyes, but he didn't expect Ah Rong's eyes to converge with him.

Naturally, they think about the same thing.

Ah Rong felt very sorry in his heart, if Xiao Lin was here, why would they worry about breakfast.

Maybe Xiao Lin is back from the big kitchen at this time!

Kobayashi's eyes lit up when he saw the ingredients taken from the big kitchen, and he was excited to try it.

Ah Rong could see that that guy really likes to make delicious food, and his craftsmanship is not bad.

That's right! Xiao Lin told him that he would bring good food when he came back from the streets of the town.

I didn't expect to run into chaos in the south of the town as soon as I went out.

Ah Rong thought depressedly in his heart...... Xiao Lin doesn't know where it is at this moment!

There was silence in the courtyard, and the two of them were thinking about their own thoughts, and the atmosphere was very dull.

After a long while, Master Wan looked at Ah Rong who was standing opposite and said, "Ah Rong, eat something first, and then do things later." ”

The work of the master craftsmen is physically demanding, and you really can't do things on an empty stomach!

Ah Rong nodded at him, walked to the pot and made two bowls of soup in a small bowl.

He paused, reached out and handed Master Wan a bowl.

The two of them were talking as they drank the hot soup, about the tool they had made last night.

It is a matter of the safety of the passengers, and after thinking about it, Master Wan felt that the hidden dangers of the carriage could not be allowed to exist.

To talk about this, he also took a risk!

Because of the above meaning, it is natural to let this loophole continue.

Master Wan didn't want to maliciously speculate on others, but he could also see some clues from it.

The top is confused when it is understood!

For him, the rumors that were boiling outside were not important, but because the National Teacher had no idea about it at all, and he was completely unaware of the potential danger of the carriage, but he was about to take this car to the front line!

That's right, it's the most dangerous front-line camp!

Master Wan felt that the upper authorities would ...... this matter It's too unauthentic.

What's more, allowing hidden dangers to exist also violates his original meaning as a craftsman.

It's so uncomfortable to ask him to ignore and do nothing!!

Ah Rong's thoughts were surprisingly consistent with him, and before Xiao Lin disappeared, the three of them discussed, and he had the same opinion.

Now that Xiao Lin is missing, the scene of the three of them discussing is still vivid, and Master Wan remembers it in his heart, and he feels that he should do this matter as properly as possible.

He didn't think about what situation he would bring if the female officials found out.

Because the people in the house have already confirmed the news, they will have to leave for the front-line camp immediately.

There wasn't much time left for them to spend in the house.

If he goes to the front-line battlefield, he has no eyes on the sword, and it is difficult to say whether he can survive from the battlefield smoothly, it is completely unknown, why should he worry too much? !

Just like Xiaolin, it's just a trip to go shopping...... It's going to disappear in a good way.

Even people in the house can't imagine what they will face next!

Front-line camp ...... The two armies are at war!

Master Wan put aside distracting thoughts and successfully made the tools for remediation, and what he and Ah Rong had to do was to improve it later.

I heard that when the National Teacher went out, there were always people around him.

That person was brought to the palace by the national teacher himself, and he must be someone trusted by the national teacher.

Master Wan planned to find an opportunity to talk to the man before leaving.

In his opinion, finding an opportunity is the last step to do the whole thing well.

The rest, that's not something he can worry about!

Of course, all assumptions are the worst-case scenario, and it is also possible that the hidden dangers of this carriage will not be triggered when going to the front-line camp.

In that case, the remedy is just hidden, and there is no need to use the best!!

......, "Master Wan, I'll go to Lady Liu's side to inquire about the news in a while, will I follow you along?" ”

After a while, Ah Rong put down the bowl in his hand and looked at Master Wan, hesitated for a moment and asked.

He wasn't sure if the other party would be willing to say yes.

Seeing Master Wan's equally hesitant look, Ah Rong's tone was also hesitant when he asked.

When Master Wan was silent, footsteps sounded from far and near outside.

The footsteps were heard through the forest beyond the west wall.

Not long after, there was a knock on the west courtyard door from outside.

The eyes of both of them looked at the courtyard gate on the west side at the same time.

Ah Rong had to interrupt the conversation for a moment, and instead stepped forward to the door to open the door.

Standing outside the courtyard gate on the west side is naturally Yuan Xiu.

She rushed over.

It had been raining all night last night, and she had come from the path in the woods, her shoes stained with mud and debris from dead leaves.

You can see how anxious she was when she came running from the woods!

Yuan Xiu had a green shadow under his eyes, and he could clearly see that he hadn't slept well all night.

After Ah Rong opened the door, she ran straight to Master Wan and asked, "Is there any new news coming, Master Wan?" ”

Seeing the latter shake his head, Yuan Xiu suddenly showed a disappointed look.

She bowed her head and looked gloomy.

Master Wan said softly to her: "Yuan Xiu, Ah Rong and I have to do something in the morning, and we will go to Lady Liu's side to inquire about the news at noon." ”

Master Wan said in a very gentle tone: "Yuan Xiu, if there is any progress at that time, I will let Ah Rong come to the flower garden to tell you." ”

Master Wan saw that Yuan Xiu was really worried, and that he couldn't deceive people.

Yuan Xiu bit her lip and said, "Master Wan, no need, I'll come back after noon." ”

She still came by herself, wanting to hear the news about Xiao Lin in time, Yuan Xiu really didn't sleep much all night, and she was always thinking about several conversations with Xiao Lin in her head.

Her mood is the same as that of Master Wan and Ah Rong.

After listening, Ah Rong and Master Wan glanced at each other, and their expressions were a little helpless.

When Yuan Xiu left, she could see that she was depressed by looking at her back.

...... Seeing Yuan Xiu leave, Ah Rong didn't step forward to close the door, and simply let the door open directly.

Ah Rong said to Master Wan: "I told Xiao Lin that the gardener has a strange temper, but Yuan Xiuren is very good. ”

"Master Wan, you see that she remembers Xiaolin's help!"

Master Wan said affirmatively when he heard his words: "That's as it should be." ”

"Ah Rong, there are too many eyes and ears in the house, if Xiao Lin takes the risk to help them, he can't get a little gratitude...... I feel chilled! ”

Ah Rong nodded again, looked at Master Wan and said, "Let's continue to do things, I will listen to your orders." ”

...... At the table by the window of the storeroom.

Master Wan stood next to the shelf, he opened a tool kit, held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, choosing what he wanted to use.

At this moment, he faintly heard footsteps outside, still far away.

But because this area is so quiet.

You can hear any movement outside.

Just like when Yuan Xiu came before...... Master Wan settled down, and soon heard a gentle knock on the door of the courtyard on the east side.

Ah Rong went to open the door one step earlier.

He faced the person who came up, and the other party immediately identified himself, they were the two attendants beside Lady Liu.

It's rare to have a situation where both of them come to them.

Not to mention Ah Rong, even Master Wan, who came out of the warehouse later, was stunned.

"Lord Liu asked you to go."

Standing at the gate of the courtyard, one of the attendants looked very arrogant.

It's not the first time I've seen him, Master Wan has seen him before, and I always feel that person is a little ...... I can't put it into words.

Ah Rong saw him for the first time, because he was frightened by the momentum on his body, and he still cowered when he stood at the door.

The man spoke in a sharper tone than a female officer, and sounded like an officer.

He didn't look like a subordinate who worked next to a female officer.

Master Wan looked at him, a trace of confusion flashed in his eyes, and he hesitated and asked, "Is it me and Ah Rong going?" ”

The man's face was a little impatient, and he glanced at him out of the corner of his eye, and then nodded at him in a calm tone: "You two go together and ask a few words." ”

At this point, the two craftsmen naturally had no choice but to do so.

Master Wan frowned and glanced at him, hesitated in his heart for only a few seconds, but still suppressed the idea of asking.

He knew that the man did not look good, so he simply did not ask any more questions, so as not to annoy the man.

No matter what, the other party is also the person next to Lady Liu!

Ah Rong followed Master Wan behind one of the attendants.

After some distance, he suddenly turned his head to look back, but did not notice another attendant who had come with him.

Their team must be made up of four people, so where did they go?

Ah Rong felt strange, he wanted to ask, but he felt that it was not appropriate, and he was a little scared.

Because it was the attendant who was missing in the slightest politeness.

Fortunately, after a few moments, when they reached a corner of the courtyard, the attendant who had fallen behind did not know where he came from.

Ah Rong walked behind Master Wan.

The latter didn't notice this detail, but Ah Rong paid attention.

He said in his heart that after waiting for Lady Liu's questioning, he and Master Wan were on their way back...... I want to mention it to Master Wan.

...... I looked at the woman standing across from me in amazement, and I didn't come back to my senses for a long time!

What's going on?

I wasn't sent out of Northland, but I was sent to ......

If I didn't understand it wrong, didn't she mean that the area I was in right now was a hostile sphere of influence for the Empress of Sealand?

Is that princess's territory?!

I'm not feeling good!

looked at her and was speechless for a while!

I finally regained my senses, took a deep breath and looked at her and asked, "Auntie, I want to know, where am I right now?" ”

I looked at her and asked in a sincere tone, "I've been walking in the mountains for a long time, and even ...... I can't figure out the direction! ”

...... Finally having a chance to enter the room, I sat down at the table and breathed a sigh of relief.

A charcoal brazier was lit in the house.

The door was still open, though.

The child was playing in the yard right now, and it was just me and my aunt in the house.

The wound on my leg that was washed by the mountain stream and bandaged by myself didn't feel so painful!
