Chapter 13 Entrustment
There was a faint fragrance of tea wafting in the room, there were still some undried water stains on the table, and next to it was an unfinished chess game. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
This is what Yun Chuchen saw when he came in.
He and Yunyou were in the room behind the curtain, and they heard what Mu Zhimo and Master Chen said clearly, and then they couldn't help but chuckle when they saw Master Chen suffer.
"You're so blind, you can laugh! Does your master Gu know about it!" The dust monster screamed.
Yun Chuchen's master, Gu Qingfeng, has lived in Xuefeng Mountain for many years, and he has not gone down the mountain more than five times in the past few decades.
Yun Chuchen didn't reply to him, he returned to his usual cold appearance, and came over to stare at the chess game in front of him.
After pondering for about half a time, he said, "You can't win this chess." ”
"You know again?" Dust snorted. How do you know that he can't win this chess game, is his chess so bad?
"Chess name!"
"Isn't it a mental chess? Does it have anything to do with whether I win or not? ”
"This chess test the heart, and those who are not cunning and evil will lose!" After Yun Chuchen finished speaking, he made a cup of tea, took a sip and said, "Good tea!"
Lichen watched the chess game again, and suddenly had an epiphany, patted his head and said, "No wonder, this ghost girl!" ”
Yun Chuchen, who looked at himself and tasted tea, glared: "The taste is better than your master's, and you will praise the tea?" He looked at Yun Chuchen with a wicked smile and teased: "When you go down the mountain, you fall in love with other people's girls?" ”
Cloud out of the dust: "......"
"Huh, you kid!" Lichen regained his appearance as a worldly master.
"Yunyou, let's go down the mountain!" Yun Chuchen glanced at the sky and put down the teacup.
"Yes, Childe!"
"Let's go, let's go." Lichen went to study the unfinished chess game by himself.
"Remember to read the letter!"
"Got it, got it, long-winded! Gu Laowei's letter, I'll see it later. "I didn't lift my head even after the dust.
Yun Chuchen didn't say anything more.
Yunyou opened the door, and the two went down the mountain.
It was getting late, so the little novice brought the meal, put the lamp in his hand, and then bowed out.
Lichen put down his chess and pulled out the letter brought by Yun Chuchen from the side.
The words are concise, just a few lines. But after reading it, his face changed.
I took the lampshade and burned the letter.
It took a long time to sigh, this day may be changing!
When Mu Zhimo and the three of them returned to the guest house, it was time to hold the lanterns, and the lanterns hanging at the courtyard gate were swaying in the night wind, and the shadows on the ground seemed to be slightly drunk.
The little master who sent the fast has been waiting for a long time.
Mu Zhimo and the three thanked them apologetically, Liuying took the meal, and the three of them pushed the door into the courtyard.
"Miss, will Master Lichen help us?" On the way back just now, Mu Zhimo had already told the two little maids about finding Master Chen.
"Stupid, who is Master Chen! Isn't that a man of his word? Don't worry, he won't lie to Miss, right, Miss!" Jinping looked at Liuying with disgust and preemptively said doglegs.
"That's right, Master Chenchen will definitely do it if he responds!" Mu Zhimo nodded in response. Although she came into contact with Master Chen once, she felt like she had known each other for a long time, this is probably the Buddha's fate, Mu Zhimo thought.
"Hmph, you bully me too!" Liuying put the fasting meal in Jinping's hand like a puff, and turned her head to ignore her.
"Huh!" The rest of the two laughed.
"It's still hot! Xiao ......" Liuying, who was thinking of setting the lamp for dinner, didn't finish her words when she felt someone cover her mouth and nose from behind, and suddenly spun around to a distance of a few steps from the door before stopping, and then suddenly a hard object against Liuying behind her, and for a moment she couldn't help but tremble with fear and worry.
A strong smell of blood came.
"Don't make a sound, or I'll kill her." A thin, weak, voice threatened.
Mu Zhimo felt that something was wrong when she entered the house, and before she could react, Liuying was arrested.
It was dark in the room, and it was difficult to see who was coming. But listening to the sound and smelling such a strong smell of blood, the person who came should have been seriously injured.
"Don't worry, we won't make a sound." Mu Zhimo lowered his voice and said calmly.
"Cough-cough" A few muffled coughs with a rough wheezing.
Mu Zhimo listened quietly, estimating that the person who came was in great pain, and spoke again in a soft and sincere tone.
"You see you're not lightly injured, we're also three weak women, can you let her go first and then we sit down and talk about it? We'll be silent when we speak, and I've brought some medicine to heal your wounds, which may be of some help to you!"
There was a moment of silence in the room, and then Hotaru was pushed over.
Mu Zhimo looked at Jinping and was also a little frightened, she helped them aside, saw that Liuying was safe, and patted their hands comfortingly before touching the table to light the lamp.
The dim and faint lamp was lit, and Mu Zhimo saw the situation in the house clearly.
The people in the room were dressed in black, with pale faces and brace eyebrows. At this time, one hand was against his abdomen, one leg was kneeling on the ground, the half-squatting leg was also trembling slightly, and there was a bloody dagger lying on the ground in front of him. Looking around, Mu Zhimo saw a seven or eight-year-old boy in brocade lying on her bed, the boy's face was immature and delicate, and he had lost baby fat, and his eyebrows were already a little handsome. At this time, I closed my eyes and lay on the bed as if I had fallen asleep.
Mu Zhimo was sure that there was no one in the room anymore and withdrew his gaze, looked at Jinping, who had recovered from it, and motioned for her to go and fetch it, and bring the medicine to treat Mu Zhimo's injuries when she went up the mountain.
Jinping quickly went over and took the medicine and looked at Mu Zhimo, Mu Zhimo nodded, and then she slowly walked over and handed it to the man in black, looking still a little trembling, but it was much better than just now.
"You take the medicine first! Such a serious injury, otherwise what would he do? Mu Zhimo said softly, and glanced at the boy on the bed as she spoke.
"Thank you!" It took a long time before a sound came.
The man in black glanced at Mu Zhimo gratefully, and then sat down to uncork the bottle on his knees.
At the time of a cup of tea, the room was silent.
The man in black had stopped the bleeding, he looked at Mu Zhimo who was sitting calmly on the wooden chair, calm and composed, and there was no fear that Miss Boudoir should have when she encountered this kind of thing. I admired her courage very much, and I was even more determined in my thoughts.
"Miss, can I ask you for something?" The man in black got up and knelt in front of Mu Zhimo.
"Why do you believe me?" Mu Zhimo said coldly.
Mu Zhimo estimated the next thing from paying attention to the situation in the house. The man in black was seriously injured and had a child with him, and it seemed that he was at the end of his rope when he hid in the monastery. That will be his promise to let go of the flow of fireflies is not bad, so it is not difficult to guess what will happen next.
"Don't hide it, miss, I came in before it was dark. Originally, I also thought that if I met someone who leaked the news, I would be killed, but I accidentally saw the Buddhist scriptures copied on the young lady's desk, and they all said that they could read words and read people, and I thought that the young lady was kind in nature. I also heard your conversation outside the house, and those who can win the appreciation of Master Chen must have their own merits, so I dare to have this wall. The man in black was already a little exhausted.
"You're being honest."
"Please also ask Miss to take care of the boy in bed for a while, and someone will come to look for him in the future, and then he will reward Miss! There are 1,000 taels of silver under the bed, which is a small reward for the kindness of the young lady, and if there is an afterlife, I will be a cow and a horse to repay the kindness of the young lady. ”
"Why do you think I'll answer you?" Mu Zhimo was strange, just based on this handwriting and a few words of conversation at the door, it was impossible to think like this.
The man in black hesitated and said, "I looked at Miss's baggage, and Miss seems to be very short of money. ”
Mu Zhimo: ......
The man in black was also awkward when he thought about it, and he wanted to see if there were any clothes to change into, but the ones on his body were already tattered and bloodstained, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to hide his whereabouts. Later, I saw that the baggage was full of women's clothes, and it was still a little old, and the whole baggage didn't even have anything of value or something that was slightly eye-catching.
Mu Zhimo knew that she was right. The whole house is full of wolf-like opponents, but she is surrounded by rabbit-like teammates, and she has no money on her, so what can she do to fight with others! But she was a little hesitant about the situation in front of her.
Although the man in black hid it well, she still saw that he was a eunuch. Then the little boy on the bed is not simple, this muddy water is not something that a weak maid like her can wade on.
But if she didn't agree, there would be only one outcome waiting for the three of them.
Mu Zhimo is not an idiot, she responded immediately.
"Well, I promise you!" It's better to be alive than to be in trouble. "But you also know that your identity is not simple, I will inevitably be recognized with him, and our three weak women will still fall into the mouth of the tiger."
"This young lady can rest assured, I have changed his face, and this countenance can only be seen by those who have come to save her." The man in black was quite confident in this.
"Okay then." Mu Zhimo nodded sincerely, since there is no trouble, then it is good to raise that child for a while.
"Thank you, Miss, I'm going down the mountain! If you delay for a long time, I'm afraid that someone will find you in trouble, so please leave everything to Miss!"
The man in black thanked him solemnly, got up and glanced back at the child on the bed, and forced himself to just say in a dumb voice: "Little master, you must be good!" He turned and jumped out of the window and disappeared into the night.
Mu Zhimo looked at the sleeping child on the bed and asked Jinping to take out the silver under the bed.
It's really a thousand taels.
After pondering for a while, she said, "Tomorrow I will probably go down the mountain." ”
