Chapter 371: The Beggar
"That kid is gone, he must be back." Xiao Mu said, "A few days ago, he said that he wanted to come back to burn paper for his dead father and mother, and go back to the place where he lived in the last place." ”
"Look at what? What's there to see? Dongnan sank his face, "You two hurry up and find it, don't let him cause trouble in the capital, although he doesn't know our details, but it is useful for the Lord to keep him, don't spoil the Lord's affairs." ”
"I think there is still Brother Lao Dongnan to go on a trip." Thumb walked into the inside of the house, jumped up, and sat on the chair, "We may not be able to find people if we dig the underground of the capital into ant holes, after all, working underground is our specialty, and if you want to find someone on the ground, it is not as good as your southeast brother." ”
Thinking about it in the southeast, the thumb is also saying that this pair of dwarf brothers can run rampant underground, but if they appear on the ground, even if they are disguised, they can't hide their special appearance, if they are noticed by the people of Xuanwang's Mansion and captured, it will also be a loss for the lord.
So, Dongnan decided to go to Ximenhai on his own.
A Ximenhai is nothing in his eyes, he can't do a few kung fu strokes, and he is dumbfounded, even the stupid prince Ximen Che is not as good, but Ximen Che's martial arts are still good.
"That kid was talking about his mother's birthday coming soon, saying that he wanted to come back to get his father's relics, and begged our brother before, without the Lord's order, we would not return to the capital on our own, and the kid couldn't help but sneak away by himself, I think, he went back to the house where the Marquis of Xiaoyao Mansion was burned down." Seeing that Dongnan was going to leave, Thumb added, "But just in case you guess wrong, you should go and check." ”
"People are dead, what's the use of remembering birthdays!" Dongnan snorted coldly, "If he can really sneak back, it's his ability, I'll look for it." ”
The southeast looked for Jingyu's house at the west gate.
In the evening, when the vendors on the road were ready to close their stalls, there was a beggar nestled in the corner next to a stall selling roasted cakes, his clothes were tattered, his hair was disheveled, and he was cluttered with a lot of frizzy things, and a pair of black hands were holding half a cake and munching on it.
"Is it enough? I'll give you another one. The little owner of the biscuit stall threw a biscuit at the beggar.
The beggar opened his hands and held the flying baked cakes in his arms.
Suddenly, the beggar's chaotic eyes lit up, and he looked at the man who passed by the baked cake stall, stood up suddenly, and ran over regardless of the baked cake that fell from his arms.
Suddenly, a beggar ran towards him, and Dongnan threw out a piece of broken silver with some disgust, he was doing errands, and he didn't want to be disturbed, even if it was a beggar in front of him, he was very happy to send it away.
However, the beggar did not go to pick up the silver that had rolled to the side, but followed closely to the southeast.
Dongdong's face remained unchanged, his heart had sunk, and he wanted to kill.
After passing an alleyway, Southeast dodged and turned around.
The beggar kept up with him.
The southeast, who was guarding the wall at the entrance of the alley, raised his foot and hooked his foot, and the beggar was caught off guard and tripped and fell to the ground.
Dongnan followed with a fierce kick and stepped on the beggar's back, and said coldly, "Uncle Ben gave you the silver, do you want to die?" ”
"Ahem......" The beggar lay on the ground, trampled and breathless, "It's my ......"
The voice......
Southeast let go of his feet, and the beggar rolled over slightly, half-propped up to the station.
Dongnan dragged him up, opened the messy hair hanging on his face, and stared at the face in a daze, "It's really you?" ”
Although from the voice, the southeast had already heard that it was Ximenhai, but looking at him face to face, looking at his face full of dirt and stains, he still couldn't believe that this down-and-out person was the little marquis of the former Xiaoyao Mansion.
Ximenhai nodded vigorously, and the question from the southeast also made him sure that he did not recognize the wrong person, he was the man who appeared on Wuli Peak to convey their master's order.
Dongnan looked around vigilantly, making sure that no one was staring, and dragged Ximenhai to an unnoticed corner before letting go of his hand.
Looking Ximenhai up and down, the southeast laughed and said, "You can really hide yourself very well like this, no wonder you can leave your thumb brother and sneak back to the capital." ”
"I want to go home and get a few relics of my father and mother to take with me, my mother's birthday is approaching, I want to burn incense for her at home, and I will go out to do things in the future, this is the last ......time," Ximenhai said.
"Does it work to do these superficial things? Can people be resurrected? Can it help you get revenge? Southeast questioned one after another, so gentle is not material to do big things at all.
Being so gentle is not material for doing big things at all, but he is not the person he values anyway, just a chess piece in the hands of the master.
"Pepsi filial piety comes first, I don't think I'm at fault." Ximenhai said, "My father and mother raised me once, but I ended up with no one to send me to the end, I just came back after so many days to burn pillar incense, and I didn't do enough." ”
"Huh...... After hiding in Huai'an County for a while, there has indeed been a little change, and I am not so excited emotionally. Southeast sneered.
"My father and mother are dead, and it is useless for me to be sad, I just want to worship my father and mother once in the future, and I think my father and mother also want to see me alive." Ximenhai said, "From now on, before the revenge is avenged, I will never visit the shrine again, and I will not be ashamed to worship." ”
Southeast nodded, "That's your determination, too." So, did you go back? ”
"I went, but I didn't get in." Ximenhai Road.
"Coming through the door? Isn't that courtyard sealed all the time, and you dare to expect to swagger in through the door? The southeast glanced up and down at Ximenhai, "Do you want me to take you over the wall and jump in?" ”
That being said, he didn't want to touch the pickled beggar at all.
"I can flip into it myself." Ximenhai saw his disdain for himself from the eyes of the southeast, no matter how bad his martial arts were, he could still do it by climbing over the wall.
"Really?" The sarcastic smile in Dongnan's eyes deepened, "Then you were tripped by me just now, I'm really afraid that you fell from the wall and broke your head, and the beggar turned into a fool, but it's really useless." ”
"I'll admit I can't compare to you." Ximenhai suppressed his anger, and his expression could not be seen on his dirty face at all, just now he really didn't guard against the southeast, and fell to the ground, very ungraceful.
But he is no longer the little marquis of the past, but a down-and-out homeless fugitive with hatred, what demeanor is there?
From Huai'an County to the capital, although it is not far, but he has been a beggar all the way, and now except for facing his dead father, there is nothing for him to care about face, let alone pay attention to any demeanor.
And he is actually not as good as a real beggar, a beggar can beg unfettered and openly, but he also has to be careful that his identity is not exposed, and he is always nervous.
"I will definitely use my own methods to avenge my father!" Ximen Hai said, only those eyes shone brightly, showing the hatred that could not be subdued.
The look of disdain in the southeast was slightly restrained, and he snorted lightly, he was too lazy to argue with Ximenhai here, some of his strength was not worth Lang's expense, he focused on the result, not empty words.
"It's not that I can't go home, it's that I found that there seem to be people in the sealed yard." Ximenhai also put his words to the point.
Because he found someone, he didn't dare to sneak in, he knew his level, and he was afraid that he would make a mistake and make him get into trouble, so he chose to dodge.
He didn't know where to contact the "lord" in the capital, but he knew that he had escaped from Huai'an County, and his thumb brother knew that his plan would definitely be found, so he hid on the side of the road leading to the house and waited, and it happened to run into the southeast.
"Someone in the yard?" The southeast was a little surprised, the sealed courtyard was located in a row of courtyards as if it had been abandoned, and no one paid attention to it, Ximenhai actually said that there were people in the courtyard?
In fact, logically speaking, that house is not Ximen Jingyu's home, Xiaoyaohou's Mansion has long been burned down, and the small mansion Ximenhai has only lived for less than a month, but that is their most reluctantly settled place, and Ximenhai wants to go back, just looking for psychological comfort.
It was obvious that the news that there was someone in the courtyard far overshadowed Ximenhai's wishes, and Dongnan immediately thought that there might be something unusual hidden.
"There must be someone." Ximenhai said, "I went around to the back wall of the broken house where the west wall collapsed, and I was going to climb over the wall to go in, but I heard someone talking on the other side of the wall, but I didn't really hear it, and later, I avoided it from a distance, and sure enough, I saw someone coming out from behind the broken house, and I was very fast, not that my eyes were always staring, and it was difficult to find it at all." ”
"Have you seen that man?" Southeast asked.
It's a strange thing, who would hide in that yard? What might be plotting?
Ximenhai shook his head, "That person moves very fast, I can't see clearly." Shouldn't you check it out? ”
Looking at the sky in the southeast, only a trace of the sun's afterglow remains.
"Wait until it's dark." Dongnan said, "Since they are here, they won't leave for a while, I'll go to the Lord first and ask, you still go to the place where you burned the cake stall just now and wait, I'll let Brother Thumb pick you up." ”
"I'm not leaving, I'm going home!" Ximenhai stubbornly said, if he left like this, didn't he run back in vain? What's more, he also wanted to know who Lu Dao was quietly doing things in his home.
"Home? You still really think that this is your home, your Xiaoyao Mansion has long been reduced to ashes, and you should go to the ruins of the Xiaoyao Hou Mansion to pay respects. "Southeast Road.
"The Xiaoyao Marquis Mansion was burned." Ximenhai had to admit that the fire was the beginning of their bad luck, "But in that yard there are the things that my father and mother used the most, and the things that were rescued from the fire, and that is my home." ”
