Chapter Fifty-Seven: All Plants and Trees Are Soldiers

On the street shrouded in cold autumn, from time to time accompanied by people coming and going, a cool cold wind blows; Zhu Xishi sat on the side of the street vigilantly, and couldn't help but shiver.

Picking up the tea in her hand for a long time, she wanted to press her too flustered heart, but when the warm tea touched Zhu Xishi's lips, there was a cold feeling, and she found that the tea in her hand was already cold.

Hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, and looked anxiously on the street for a while, but his heart became more and more uneasy: Why hasn't Zhao Xiaoba come back yet?!

Zhu Xishi, who was like a frightened bird, now only hopes that Zhao Xiaoba will come back with the official messenger to deal with the aftermath, this atmosphere is about to suffocate her!

Wasn't Zhu Xishi particularly bold? I've sat down with the killer Wuhuan before, and I've never seen her so restless.

There is nothing strange about it, for the wicked who are not sorry to die, there is a righteousness in her heart that supports her; But in the face of the innocents who died one by one, Zhu Xishi couldn't calm down, and his mind was full of the man's dead face swaying back and forth.

That's a living human life gone!

"Girl."

When he was nervous, there was a sudden tap on his shoulder, which frightened Zhu Xishi and screamed on the side of the street. Too flustered for a while, Zhu Xishi unconsciously picked up the teacup and threw it at the comer.

"Don't come here!!"

A thrilling scene, the teacup flew past the door of the man's head! Fortunately, the person who came was quick to avoid the flying disaster, but he was still wet with the spilled tea.

In the face of Zhu Xishi's sudden "attack", the visitor was only slightly startled for a moment, then regained his composure, and instead asked Zhu Xishi with concern.

"Girl, are you alright?!"

Instinctively taking a few steps back, Zhu Xishi stared at the man in front of him with deep vigilance, and instead questioned the person who came up.

"Who are you? What do you want to do, say! ”

The successive words came straight to him, and the man was also a little confused. However, after looking at the nervous Zhu Xi for a long time, he seemed to be aware of her sensitivity at the moment, eased his face, and explained in a good voice.

"Don't be afraid, girl, I don't have any ill intentions. In Xia Xiao Yi, he is the shopkeeper of the 'Ruixiang Money Village' in Taiyuan City. This time I came to find a son surnamed Zhao, I wonder if the girl knows each other? ”

Zhu Xishi, who was a soldier, looked at Xiao Yi cautiously a few times, but he couldn't see anything suspicious, and his face relaxed a little in panic, but he was still deeply suspicious in his words.

"Zhao Gongzi? Do you know Zhao Xiaoba?! ”

"Exactly."

"What did you find him for?"

When looking at Zhu Xi, who was forced to ask an inch, Xiao Yi also laughed a little helplessly, but he still explained patiently.

"Don't get me wrong, girl. Zhao Gongzi asked for something to inquire about in the next generation, and he came to reply to Zhao Gongzi this time. ”

Back?! Sinking his pounding heart, Zhu Xishi thought about it calmly, could it be that this person is what Zhao Xiaoba said, a friend with a background? !

Seeing that Zhu Xi was still suspicious, Xiao Yi suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly untied a waist card from his waist and lit it up in front of Zhu Xishi.

"If the girl still can't believe what she said, you can take this waist card to the 'Ruixiang Qianzhuang' and ask, and you will know if you are lying."

The man in front of him who called himself "Xiao Yi" didn't seem to be lying, and Zhu Xishi thought about it again, didn't Zhao Xiaoba say that someone would come to report the news today. Could it really be him? Looking at Xiao Yi's sincere smile, she became more and more sure that she was confused.

Suddenly, seeing the wet sleeve on Xiao Yi's left shoulder, Zhu Xishi suddenly blushed, what a shame!! Hurriedly let down his full guard and said apologetically.

"I'm sorry big brother, just now Xi Shi was reckless, please don't remember the villain, and take care of it."

"What did the girl say? You are Zhao Gongzi's friend, that is, my Xiao Yi's friend, how can a friend see anything else. You're welcome. ”

Xiao Yi's answer regardless of his previous suspicions made Zhu Xishi's face even redder. Unexpectedly, this Xiao Yi is a reasonable person, worthy of being the shopkeeper of the money bank, and has a bearing! Zhu Xishi was not a person who was obsessed with small things, so he hurriedly moved the bench from the square table and invited Xiao Yi to take a seat.

"Big brother is really an open-minded person, please take a seat."

Looking at the street where this person came and went, Xiao Yi also felt strange, why did this Zhu Xishi let himself sit here. After a moment of doubt, Xiao Yi didn't make much guesses, and sat down according to Zhu Xishi's kindness.

"Is the girl the proprietress of this 'Xi Shi Bun Shop', Zhu Xishi?"

When he followed Zhu Xi, who sat down, he never expected that he would know his name! Blushing, he lowered his head and answered.

"It's the little woman who made the eldest brother smile."

"Where, where. Miss Zhu is a well-known figure in our Taiyuan City, and she makes a good bun, which is a delicacy that makes people give a thumbs up. ”

is worthy of being the shopkeeper of the big money bank, that is, he can speak well, and he praised Zhu Xi's heart when he was sweet.

Seeing that the atmosphere had eased up, Xiao Yi hurriedly asked again: "By the way, Miss Zhu, I don't know if Zhao Gongzi can be in the house at this time?" ”

He went to the yamen to report to the official, but he has not yet returned. I'm anxious for him to come back! ”

Report to the officer?! When Zhu Xishi said this, it made Xiao Yi stunned, it seems that something has happened! He hurriedly inquired again.

"What's wrong?!"

Seeing that Xiao Yi, who was eager, asked, Zhu Xishi didn't want to hide it. After all, when Zhao Xiaoba comes back with an official messenger in a while, this matter will spread, and he can't hide it if he wants to; And seeing that Xiao Yi is quite reliable, one more person has more strength, maybe there is some solution.

Therefore, without much hesitation, Zhu Xishi also said the truth.

Listening to Zhu Xishi's trembling narration, Xiao Yi's face also changed! I didn't expect the other party to get the news so quickly.

"That's the way it is, Brother Xiao."

recalled the experience just now, Zhu Xishi also exhaled the cold air, thinking that the male corpse was still lying in his boudoir, his whole body shuddered!

With a lingering brow, the gloom on Xiao Yi's face never eased, and he was silent for a while before he said abruptly.

"This is in trouble!!"

Hearing Xiao Yi's exclamation, Zhu Xishi's uneasy heart trembled again! Why, even a person like Xiao Yi can't do it?! How's that to be?

Couldn't help but feel a little anxious in Zhu Xishi's tone: "What's the trouble, Brother Xiao?!" Don't scare me anymore!! ”

Xiao Yi, who was stunned, hurriedly raised his head and looked at Zhu Xi in embarrassment, complaining in his heart that he had lost his words for a while. Turning around his worries, he avoided the crux of the matter.

"Miss Zhu, don't panic! Wait for Zhao Gongzi to come back, and then think about it in the long run. By the way, how long has Zhao Gongzi been there?! ”

"It's been a while, and I should be back soon."

"Okay, I'll be here with Miss Zhu and wait for Zhao Gongzi to come back, just in case of accidents."

Xiao Yi offered to stay and take care of himself, and Zhu Xishi couldn't ask for it, so he quickly nodded in thanks. At this time, because Xiao Yi was by her side, her hanging heart suddenly settled down a lot.

With Xiao Yi's gaze, we paid attention to the street, looking forward to Zhao Xiaoba's early return. She only hopes that she will be safe and sound, and not add any more trouble.
