Chapter 342: There is a curiosity

I was delayed for a long time last night, and I said a lot when I returned to the courtyard...... Yuan Xiu knew that his grandfather, who was sleeping in another room, should not wake up so quickly. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

She planned to take advantage of the dawn to go to the small courtyard again.

Although her grandfather told her a lot of words, Yuan Xiu felt that her grandfather's statement was not credible.

She thought back to the scene when she saw the man.

No matter what Yuan Xiu thought in his heart, he couldn't equate the words Xiaolin with the bad guy.

Yuan Xiu walked into the kitchen and took a look, and after thinking about it, he decided to go first.

She was curious about the new person in the courtyard.

It's not just because he came from the military camp on the front line in the north of Zealand, and Yuan Xiu has never had the opportunity to see it.

Speaking of which, she usually works in the courtyard of the house, working beside the gardener's grandfather, and has been like this for many years.

When His Majesty didn't come to the Northland, the flowers and trees in this house had always been taken care of by Yuan Xiu's grandfather.

For the world outside...... Yuan Xiu is very yearning.

It's just to meet and talk to Xiao Lin in the mansion, she thought silently in her heart......

Where can it be as terrible as Grandpa said!

Yuan Xiu thought for a while, then pushed open the wooden door of the fence wall outside, and quietly walked out.

...... The cold wind blowing up outside makes you feel refreshed.

Walking in the courtyard, Yuan Xiu's mood also became better.

She followed the trail for a while, then turned in the direction of the woods.

Yuan Xiu was going to walk through the woods...... to reach the walls of that small courtyard smoothly.

It's still early, and she thinks to herself that Xiao Lin, who lives in the courtyard, doesn't know if he's up?

...... Tianfang walked in the cave passage with two guards, feeling the change in temperature around him from time to time.

Walking to the current section, the three of them felt that the passage had become slightly wider, and they could feel that it seemed to be a lot colder than before.

The ground still looked a little damp.

After a short walk forward, Tianfang walked along the rugged passage with the guards.

The guards looked at the back of the person walking in front of him several times, and wanted to ask Tianfang out loud.

However, given the previous experience, the companions behind him were not idle.

When he looked back, the other party had gestured several times, nothing more than a gesture to keep the guard quiet.

Walking in front of Tianfang's pace is very steady, there are too many times in the mountains, he is used to it.

The two guards who followed him had also experienced a lot, and they were all in a similar situation to him.

The trio just walked silently in the passage, barely talking until they ...... Once again, stop and rest.

The guard stepped forward, looked at Tianfang standing on the side of the cave wall, and asked, "Lord, we've been walking for almost an hour now...... Why haven't you found the exit ahead? ”

Tianfang turned his head to look at him, paused, and said, "I've been shuttling in the middle of the mountain all the time. ”

Saying...... That's the best way to describe it!

Tianfang made a judgment: "At present, it seems that the position is still going deeper, and I don't know who has come to this area before us...... How did you discover this place? ”

After another pause in his speech, he looked at the two guards and said with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "According to my plan, it has to be adjusted appropriately." ”

Tianfang's eyes swept the passage in the darkness ahead, bowed his head and said, "If you walk for a few more hours, there is no change in front of you, and there is no exit you are looking forward to, I think it may be possible to change the way." ”

The two guards immediately looked at each other, and immediately understood the hidden meaning of their master's words.

The guard breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said in his heart that he was still worried that the Lord would go to the end of the road along the way, and he would not retreat if he didn't see the end!

Didn't think about it...... After all, Tianfang looks like a passage that seems to have no end...... Plan adjustments.

It's certainly a good thing for them.

The three of them have been exploring the mountains for a long time, and they haven't found it again, it's pure providence!

After thinking about it, the guard felt a lot more relaxed in his heart, like a big stone down.

He looked at his companion and said, "The people in the nearby camp don't know what happened to the investigation?" What's going on right now? ”

The companion shook his head, they had cut off contact with the outside.

If you don't walk in an open area in the mountains, you can't send the news out or in.

You have to know what's going on, unless you can see the sky outside again.

Otherwise, they can only guess in their hearts, guessing what is going on outside.

The guard turned his head to look at the way he came, and he couldn't find an answer to a topic, and he felt that it was useless to be too entangled.

...... The attendant led me to a small kitchen in the middle of the courtyard, and I stood in the doorway and looked at him in amazement.

Of course, I can see that this is the kitchen where the people down there do things.

It was not yet dawn, and he had brought me here...... Thinking about it, he asked me if I was full, did I have a good thing?

I was stunned, and the attendant walking in front of me pulled away from me.

Then he stood still, turned to me and beckoned, "Hey, you come with me." ”

I did as I was told.

The attendant pointed to the corner of the room, then looked at me and said, "The water tank in the kitchen is empty, you need to help get some water." ”

I looked at him steadily, and he turned his head and coughed, and then said, "When the thing is done, you can take the snacks from the plate on the stove with you." ”

"There's one less person here, someone used to fetch water."

He explained it to me briefly.

I didn't question it, and immediately nodded at him, and after a while, the attendant looked at me and said, "I have something to go away now, come over in about half an hour, and take you back." ”

I quickly recalled the route in my mind, looked at him and said, "No, I already remember the path I walked when I came." ”

I found out that he was selective.

I had been aware of the journey, and had noticed that the attendants who were walking with me seemed to be deliberately avoiding some routes.

When I walked after him, I only met the guards in the house once.

The attendant looked surprised when he heard this, his lips moved, and he said later: "You only followed me once, didn't you just come to the courtyard, is it possible...... Already remembered? ”

Without waiting for me to answer, he continued, "That's the best, I may not be back in time." ”

He looked at me and stopped looking at me and said, "My lord told me last night that he was going to look for him in the morning." ”

I said to him, "Go ahead, thank you!" ”

The attendant gave me another look before leaving, then withdrew his gaze and turned away.

...... The small courtyard is empty, and the courtyards here look similar, much the same.

I turned my head to look at the kitchen stove and walked over to lift the lid from the plate and set it aside.

I looked down and saw that the plate contained a plate of dim sum, which was naturally cold.

In fact, the stoves here are all ready-made, and the stoves are also ready-made.

I really want to have a snack...... It's best to warm it up on the stove before eating.

But I look at the kitchenette...... It seems to be rarely used.

I walked over to the stove and looked at it, and figured it hadn't been used in days.

Now that the squire has assigned me a task, I still have to finish what I am doing first.

Standing in the kitchen, I looked around, and decided to fill the water tank with water as the waiter had instructed before leaving, and then take the food and leave.

I walked over to the well, looked at the barrel placed on the side, and hesitated.

Subsequently, I picked the smaller one from the middle.

I tied the rope to the barrel and slowly shook the mechanism on the platform.

I remember talking to the guy about this when I was in Nanhua Town.

But at that time, the young man in Nanhua Town told me that the inn did not have a similar setting.

This is definitely different from the inn in Nanhua Town, because it is the place where the empress will stay when she arrives in Beidi Town.

Although the conditions are not comparable with those in the national capital, the relevant settings in the house are still very convenient, which is convenient for the people below.

I listened to the wooden device on the well platform, and there was a slight creak!

The rope lowered the barrel and sank to the bottom of the well, then came out and slowly pumped up the bucket.

This method has the advantage that it is much less labor-saving than the general method of pumping water, that is, it is slower in speed.

There was no one around, and naturally there was no one urging me to do things, so by dawn, I would be able to finish things and take the food with me.

...... Thinking that after a while, I should be able to see Master Wan and Ah Rong back, and then I have to ask where they went?!

It's also kind of interesting to say.

After arriving at the house from the training ground of the Sealand Pioneer Camp, he was assigned a mission to the small courtyard where he lived...... Neither of the three was in the courtyard.

I'm a little curious about where they went when they didn't go back at night!

When the bucket was slowly lifted by the rope, I carefully lifted the bucket and walked along the path of the well to the large tank in the kitchen, and poured a bucket of water into it.

To fill the tank, it takes many buckets of water.

After a few back and forth, I was actually sweating.

It stands to reason that it is very cold to be busy by the well on such a cold day, but when you sweat at work, you can ignore the cold right now.

I think the squire's method is also more acceptable to me.

He asked me to do something simple, and his attitude was so much better than his previous companion!

...... Things were almost done, I looked around the kitchen, and there was still no one outside.

There was already a faint light on the horizon, and I had better get back to my place before dawn.

I walked over to the stove and took the food from my plate with me, and closed the door when I went out.

...... With a snack in hand, I stood in the courtyard and remembered the route that the attendant had taken me, and then planned to go out through the side gate of the courtyard first.

Unexpectedly, I walked into the corner when I suddenly heard footsteps outside.

I was startled, but there was no suitable place for me to hide right now.

In desperation, I pushed open a random door and immediately dodged in.

Through the crack in the door, I saw someone coming in from outside, dressed as a squire.

My gaze stopped at the man's face, but he moved so fast that he immediately ran to the kitchen.

I didn't get a chance to see the man's face.

Fortunately, it was the attendant in the house, so I didn't feel the need to hide.

I just ran into him head-on, and I was able to tell him generously that I was sent here to do something.

I went out of the house, closed the door, and walked in the direction of the side door.

The attendant who remained in the kitchen heard the footsteps and rushed out sharply, blocking me.

My first reaction was that he was extremely fast, and he should be good at kung fu!

He stood in front of me, scrutinizing me.

At this point, you can't see it clearly.

The person who came was about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a clear eyebrow and a beautiful face...... The corners of the eyes and eyebrows have an attractive charm.

I frowned and looked at him, and a thought flashed in my heart, this face can rest in the harem of the Empress of Sealand.

He saw my appearance clearly, was slightly stunned, and then asked, "Who are you?" ”

I looked down at him, thought for a moment and replied, "I came to the mansion yesterday, and I was sent here to work, and I was drawn from the army. ”

He suddenly said, "Oh, it's the craftsman who came to do things?" ”

I was stunned in my heart, it seems that the news in the house is still quite fast, no, even the attendants in front of me know our origins.

Maybe by the time I left, Master Wan and Ah Rong had already returned to the courtyard, and they had already met many other people in the courtyard.

"Well, that's right, but I'm not a craftsman, I'm just a handyman, and the craftsman sent to do things is Master Wan."

"You...... You're in my way, and I have to go back. ”

After speaking, I planned to walk around him, because this person was still clubbing, and there was no consciousness to let go.

"Hey, what did you bring?"

He immediately reached out to block me, but in the blink of an eye, the handkerchief I had used to wrap the snacks was in his hands, along with the snacks.

After he opened it, he looked at me smugly and smiled: "What are you here to help with things, you were sent here, it turns out that you are here to steal snacks to eat." ”

I reached for the bag of snacks, but he raised his hand so high that I couldn't reach it.

I suppressed the depression in my heart, controlled my emotions and took a step back to look at the person in front of me: "I was really brought here to do things. ”

He looked at me and raised an eyebrow slightly, looking incredulous.

"The person who brought me said that I just had to fill the tank in the kitchen with water and I would be able to leave with all this food."

"What about that person? Why isn't he here? ”

"He brought me before dawn," I continued, after a pause, "and I heard him say ...... Which adult are you going to meet...... Anyway, I was called by the female officer for questioning. ”

The previous attendant had revealed very little information, and had not spoken much from beginning to end.

He appeared outside the courtyard...... The whole process of him coming to me was beyond my expectations!
