Chapter 40: Outwitting the Villa (1)
I moved my wrist early the next morning and found that Ye Keting was no longer there. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info I immediately sat up and looked around, but I wasn't there. Could it be that Wenda Villa, who knew that the Wen family was harmed, ran back to take revenge?
I ran out the door to see if the horses were still there, when I smelled a scent. I turned around and saw that Ye Keting was roasting pheasant meat and stewing a pot of mixed vegetable soup. He saw me get up and handed me the roasted chicken. I asked him if he didn't eat it, and he said he didn't have an appetite. I see that he even wiped the medicine on his own. It seems that last night, I cried and screamed for half a night, but it still had an effect.
I didn't take the chicken he handed me, but sat next to him by his movements. He looked at me curiously, and I said to him: "I won't eat if you're hungry, you Young Master Ye doesn't cherish your body, and my little girl in the grass house will do the same." ”
He didn't say anything, and continued to roast the chicken on the fire, and the chicken was bubbling with oil and fragrant. I was already hungry and fainted, but I still swallowed and watched as he moved. Later, I couldn't help it, so I had to go back to the broken temple and lie down. Soon, Ye Keting walked in, handed me a bowl of vegetable soup, tore a piece of pheasant meat and fed it to me, and said softly: "You eat first, just give me the rest." I smiled and asked him to eat along, and he sat next to me and drank the soup.
I ate vigorously, and listened to him say on the side: "I have thought about it carefully, and what you said is reasonable." The Wen family occupies Pingcheng, but they will not stop if they don't get the key to the harvest, as long as I don't get caught, my father and mother may be safe. He is now only in charge of Pingcheng in the name of my father and brother, and by the way, he controls the southeast, but how can the southeast be his world. Jiuqu Mingshan didn't come and occupied Pingcheng, how could he give this big advantage to the Wen family father and son in vain. "It seems that although Ye Keting is pure, his mind is very clear.
I agreed, and asked him, "So what are you going to do?" ”
"The eldest brother and sister must be safe in the Sangong Mansion, and we should rush to the northwest mountain city as soon as possible to find the military Hu Guang. My dad had come to his rescue when he was down, so he would have helped Wenda Villa through this. ”
After listening to what he said, I don't think so. Most of the people who help us will still help us, but the people we have helped may not always want to help us. I pulled the chicken thigh meat and told him: "If we go straight to the northwest, the road is rugged and difficult to walk, not to mention, we have no money on us, and when we reach the Gobi land, we have no food, how can we make it to the northwest." It's better to borrow the road in the capital, find some money and then hurry, not only to avoid the pursuers, but also to buy you some precious medicinal materials. In other words, you don't put silver in your money bag, but what do you do with your broken iron card? ”
He didn't answer me, but told me that the Ye family had many friends in Zhongdu, and maybe he could defect. It's easy to put the icing on the cake, but it's hard to send charcoal in the snow. The original friend didn't know if he was down, but it was still reliable? But there is more hope than the Shentu family, the merchants are profitable, and it will not be beneficial for them to go this time, maybe Shentu can tie me and Ye Keting to the southeast in exchange for cups and dishes.
After breakfast, we got on our horses and set off. Ye Keting told me that Ye Mingda had a private house before he inherited the villa, and that he was going to pick up an important property nearby. About an hour after the trip, we walked to the bottom of a mountain. I asked Ye Keting funny, your family has been cultivating in the deep mountains and old forests before. He smiled, but did not answer me, and led me along the wide mountain road, and soon a majestic mountain village built on the mountain was revealed. I smiled and slapped Ye Keting on the shoulder: "There is a mountain villa that does not live, take me to live in the broken temple." You're so unkind. Ye Keting smiled and rubbed his shoulders and led me towards the door.
When I arrived at the gate of the villa, Ye Keting's brows furrowed, and after helping me dismount, he tied the horse to the forest. Led me around to the side of the lodge, where there was a small door, but it was locked, among the vines. Ye Keting tugged through the crack in the door, pulled out a rusty key, and unlocked the door. We entered through the small door. I looked up at the huge manor, quiet but neat, every grass and tree had just been repaired. But at this time, it was quiet as if there was no one to guard it, and even the birds in the forest could be heard clearly. Ye Keting made a silent expression at me, and I followed him, walking in unison. Then I suddenly tripped over something, and I looked down and almost screamed. I trembled and grabbed Ye Keting's shirt, and I was about to cry. He looked down and saw that my ankle was being grabbed by an old hand.
Ye Keting patted my head lightly and signaled me not to be afraid. He slowly drew the long sword at his waist and used it to pick open the grass, only to see an old man lying in the grass, dying. Ye Keting shouted: "Uncle Zhong? The old man struggled to get up, his forehead was covered with bloodstains, and when he saw that it was Ye Keting, the old man burst into tears and said: "Young master, leave quickly, a group of gangsters came to the village last night to rummage around, and my family and I tried our best to stop but were outnumbered." Ah Ning: They have been injured and locked up, and the gangsters think they have beaten me to death and dumped them here. I didn't expect my old bones to be hard, waiting for you. The second young master leaves quickly and goes back to inform the master. Those who dare to bully Wenda Villa in the southeast, these people are afraid that they will die. After he finished speaking, Ye Keting's eyes darkened. I was afraid that he would be sad again, and remembered Wenda Villa, which had become a scorched earth, so I quickly diverted the topic and bandaged the old man.
Ye Keting asked Uncle Zhong to wait here, saying that he was going to save the others. I said, what about me? Ye Keting didn't allow me to take risks, let me stay here and wait for him. I reluctantly said to him: "We are now all old, weak, sick and disabled, and the situation cannot be worse." Maybe I can help you. ”
He looked at me and told me very seriously, "If I go alone, I might be able to get out of it." "I glanced at him, and then thought I was a burden?
I grabbed Ye Keting, who was leaving, and said to him, "There are many of them, we have to outwit them." He turned his head and asked Uncle Zhong, "Uncle, will you do light work?" Uncle Zhong nodded seriously and told me that I could fight three at a time. I nodded in satisfaction. There are still a few herbs left, so I'll collect them in the afternoon. There's only one thing left, blood. Ye Keting said that this is easy to do, and if he said it, he was going to cut his hand, I shook my head speechlessly, and asked him to save some use, how much is this mountain ginseng Ganoderma lucidum made up, and you can live forever if you drink it, how can it be so wasteful. I searched for the red fruits, and their juice was as red as blood, and they could be used as a substitute. So we'll wait until it's dark.
There was a period of time before it got dark, and a few days ago there was rain, and the trees grew black fungus with whirring flesh, and I was very surprised to see it, so I brought well water, washed it and gave it to both of them. Ye Keting looked at my excited appearance and asked me funny: "How can you find something that makes you happy under any circumstances, and you are happy to endure hardships?" ”
I said happily: "If you don't starve, can you still say that you are suffering?" Eating enough is the happiest thing, and if you can wake up naturally, there is nothing more fortunate than this. I live with such a clear conscience and peace of mind, who can say that I am not having pleasure? ”
After hearing this, Uncle Zhong laughed in a low voice: "The old man has lived for many years, and I really haven't seen a few people who live so clearly and openly like a girl." ”
I laughed, quickly covered my mouth and said, "Then we will dry this pile of fungus in order to live a clean and understandable life." After speaking, we made wine with fungus, touched each other, and ate with high interest.
