Chapter 40: No
Xie Yao was a little dazed the moment she woke up.
It was hard and cool underneath, the early morning mountain breeze was blowing, the birds were chirping crisply in my ears, and I didn't know where I was for a moment.
"Miss, miss."
There was a panicked shout in his ears, and at the same time, his shoulders and neck seemed to be hurting all over his body, and the pain made Xie Yao wake up for a moment.
She struggled to her feet with a thud and saw two pale servants sitting beside her.
I can move! I can talk!
Xie Yao was about to scream, but when she thought of Shao Mingqing in the room, she stretched out her hand to cover her mouth and stumbled out, and the two servants also hurriedly followed.
"Come on, come on!"
Running out of the range of the wooden house, Xie Yao immediately hissed and shouted.
Hula-la guards poured in from all sides.
"Miss Yao, are you leaving?" The leader asked respectfully, lowered his head and didn't dare to look at Xie Yao.
This Miss Yao has disheveled sideburns, messy clothes, and she looks like she hasn't been groomed, so she is in such a hurry to leave regardless of her appearance?
"Hurry up and get someone!" Xie Yao shouted, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the wooden house, "There are thieves inside!" ”
Culprits!
No wonder they ran out in such a mess!
The guards were taken aback, and rushed inward with their swords raised.
The yard was quiet, the door was wide open, and a girl was feeding the cows in the cowshed on crutches, when she heard the movement and turned her head to look at them.
The guards were stunned.
"What about thieves?" The leader couldn't help but ask.
"Didn't you come in?" Xie Rouqing said, looking at them, "Do you mean yourself?" ”
The escort at the head of the group stiffened when he was said, and he didn't pay attention to Xie Rouqing and waved his hand. Everyone rushed into the house and searched for it, and finally they didn't even see a single person in the cowshed.
"There can't be a thief, we have been around here all night, and we haven't even let the eldest young master of the second master's family come in, how can anyone else come?" One of the guards whispered to the leader, "This is Yushan, is it the first time that Miss Yao has spent the night in the mountains with hysteria?" ”
Most likely, but he didn't dare to say that, and the leader glared at him.
"You guys keep here, I'll ask Miss Yao." He said.
The guards were ordered to surround the place. The leader galloped outside. But Xie Yao's figure was no longer visible.
"Miss Yao left in the car." Said the guards who stayed where they were.
"That" the leader frowned and looked at the hut, and then looked down the hill, where a carriage galloped away as if it were fleeing.
…………………………………
"There can be no thief." After being thrown into confusion, everyone said, "Today, the eldest lady here still needs some sand." The mountains are full of us. Not a single fly can get in. ”
The leader Sifu waved his hand repeatedly.
"Forget it. Miss Yao has already left, let's still take care of Miss Rouqing according to the original order. He said, "Miss Yao will go back and report the thief to them." ”
The crowd was about to disperse. Hearing the whining sound on the side, I remembered that there was a little girl trapped in a fishing net on the ground.
Shui Ying glared angrily at the ground.
This made everyone embarrassed again.
Miss Yao left, and she didn't say what to do with this girl.
"Forget it, let's let it go, how to deal with it and wait for the family's orders." The leader waved his hand again.
Shui Ying ran into the yard crying and shouting.
"Don't cry, I'm fine." Xie Rouqing said.
Shui Ying looked incredulous.
"I knew there was that kind of medicine, and after taking it, it looked fine, and after a few days it died." She cried, "Miss, you're going to die." ”
Xie Rouqing smiled.
"I'm not dead, I didn't drink medicine." She said, leaning closer to her and whispering, "Cousin is here." ”
Cousin?
Shui Ying glared suddenly, Xie Rouqing covered her mouth in time and shook her head at her.
"Not only did I drink the medicine, but my cousin also locked up Xie Yao overnight." Xie Rouqing pursed her lips and smiled in a low voice.
No wonder Xie Yao shouted that there was a thief and ran away in fear.
It turned out to be the young master!
Shui Ying's face went from sadness to surprise and surprise, and her eyes lit up.
Xie Rouqing let go of her hand and patted her head.
"Okay, it's okay." She said, "You're hungry, go cook." ”
The voice fell into Shuiying, but she cried again.
"The young master didn't care about me." She cried, "I was tied up all night and didn't see me." ”
Xie Rouqing smiled again, thought for a while, took out a wrapped piece of candied fruit from her sleeve and stuffed it into her hand.
"This is what my cousin brought from the capital to eat." She whispered.
Shui Ying cried and tore open the candied fruit and stuffed it into her mouth, chewed a few mouthfuls of tears and stopped.
"It's delicious." She said, wiping her nose, "I'm cooking, I'm so hungry." ”
Xie Rouqing smiled and nodded.
"Miss, you're laughing a lot today." Shui Ying said, "I thought you didn't like to laugh." ”
Is it much?
Xie Rouqing smiled again.
"Let's go cook, when we eat, we still have something to do today." She said.
…………………………………………….
Xie Yao met Mrs. Xie's car halfway through.
"Big lady, big lady." She immediately rushed forward, "I saw Shao Mingqing, I saw Shao Mingqing, he also stunned me with drugs, right there Xie Rouqing, you quickly send someone to arrest him." ”
Mrs. Xie frowned.
"Shao Mingqing? The boy of the Shao family? She said, "He's back again?" ”
"yes, yes." Xie Yao said and hid her face and cried, "I went to see Rouqing yesterday and was bumped into by him, and he stunned me with drugs. ”
Mrs. Xie frowned again.
"You went to see Rouqing yesterday?" She asked.
Xie Yao's cry paused.
"Ah, I, I'm ......," she stammered, "I'm going to reprimand her for blaspheming the mountain gods." ”
As her words fell, someone next to her interjected with a smile and a groan.
"It turns out that Miss Yao went last night on the order of Madame, and I said that I was going to reprimand her, but I was stopped and said that Madame was not allowed to come close."
Oops!
Xie Yao's face turned pale. turned his head and saw that it was Xie Wenchang.
Xie Wenchang also went last night?
How could he go?
Didn't he want this daughter to die? Is it to extinguish the mouth?
No, no, that's not the point, the point is ......
Xie Yao turned her head stiffly and looked at Mrs. Xie's cold face.
"Ma'am, I, I just can't see it... I can't swallow this...," she said, tears glistening in her eyes.
No matter what, dare to pretend to be the order of the eldest lady to do things. For Mrs. Xie, these are all unpardonable sins.
From now on. As long as Mrs. Xie is in one day, she will not want to get closer to the mansion, let alone be Xie Rouhui's assistant.
But even so, she can't say that Xie Rouhui asked her to do it, otherwise she wouldn't have thought about it in her life.
Mrs. Xie glanced at her and retracted her gaze.
"Let's go down." She said. The curtain fell.
Xie Yao retreated to the side in a sweat. Watching Mrs. Xie's carriage pass.
Xie Wenchang rode past her. He looked at her with a smile and didn't speak again.
Xie Yao didn't care about Xie Wenchang either, and watched Xie Rouhui's carriage coming.
"Miss, Miss, Miss." She couldn't help but step forward.
Xie Rouhui lifted the curtain of the car with a heavy expression.
"I'll talk about it when I get back to it." She whispered.
"But. Shao Mingqing..."Xie Yao said uneasily.
"Is Shao Mingqing more important in your eyes than my sand?" Xie Rouhui said lightly, "Are you asking me to avenge you now?" ”
Xie Yao is a spirit, she has made a mistake again, now is not the time to talk about this.
How could she make such a stupid mistake, first selling herself in front of Mrs. Xie, and then running to annoy Xie Rouhui.
This must be because of the drug that Shao Mingqing gave himself.
Definitely, yes.
Shao Mingqing's return is naturally more important than Xie Rouhui's sand, but the important thing is how Shao Mingqing entered Yushan.
There are guards walking in the entire Yushan Mountain, and the outside of the wooden house where Xie Rouqing lives is even more closely guarded.
But he came in, and quietly.
Is he still Shao Mingqing? He had God's help, right?
Xie Yao retreated to the side of the road with a panicked expression, watching Xie Rouhui's carriage pass by, and didn't dare to stop and speak.
It's really strange, obviously since they returned from the capital, they have been invincible and have come true, but how can they feel more and more that many things are wrong.
…………………………………………………
On the broad ground on the mountainside of Yushan Mountain, Xie Rouhui's footsteps stopped, and the drumming also stopped.
The miners knelt down excitedly, raised their hands and shouted prayers.
Xie Rouhui raised her hand, and the wide cuffs fluttered in the wind, pointing around her.
"Go." She said aloud.
This time, there were many more miners who had been waiting for a long time than the last time, and they began to dig around a larger place than Xie Rouhui had just jumped.
This time, not only the kneeling miners nervously chanted prayers, but even Xie Rouhui couldn't help but clench the hands under the hanging sleeves.
But unfortunately, almost all this mountainside was beaten, and no cinnabar was found.
This news was not told directly to Xie Rouhui as usual, but the steward carefully ran down and told Mrs. Xie first.
"I've seen it all, it's deep and shallow, and I've beaten it all in a radius of two miles, but this time I'm sure it's really not." The steward whispered, "What do you think?" ”
What do you mean?
Mrs. Xie was angry.
"What to do? What do I do, you ask? If you can't find out, don't you know what to do? She raised an eyebrow.
The steward stepped back in fright.
"The little ones know." He said in a trembling voice.
"What should I do?" Mrs. Xie shouted.
"Tell Dannu, no sand, tell the miners, no sand." The steward said tremblingly.
Mrs. Xie splashed a bowl of tea on his face.
"Then ask me!" She exclaimed, "What do you mean? ”
The steward was frightened and knelt down and kowtowed.
"Madame's forgiveness." He said.
"Get out." Mrs. Xie shouted.
The steward didn't dare to wipe his face and staggered up and ran towards the mountainside, and after a while, shouts of no sand and no sand came from all directions.
What do you mean!
Mrs. Xie was still angry and her heart was blocked.
What do you mean!
Xie Rouhui raised her hands and looked sad.
"The mountain god no!" She said.
Accompanied by the kowtow of the miners, Xie Rouhui walked down, waved her hand and retreated, held an umbrella and raised a fan, and the girls stood in front of Mrs. Xie.
"Mother, shall I leave now?" She hesitated and asked in a low voice.
I couldn't help but look around.
What do you mean!
Mrs. Xie stood up stiffly.
"Is the sacrifice over?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.
The stupid woman lost her temper again, because she didn't light the sand?
This place was not chosen by me, but by you, and what kind of temper do you throw at me!
Xie Rouhui almost broke her nails.
"It's over." She bowed her head and said.
"What are you doing if you don't leave after the sacrifice? Don't you know how to do it after the sacrifice is over, and you still need me to teach you? Mrs. Xie shouted, and walked away without waiting for Xie Rouhui to speak.
The girls and stewards around hung their heads one after another.
Xie Rouhui's eyes darkened.
She decided, she couldn't bear it anymore, even if it was an eventful time, she had to let this stupid woman die, at least let her keep this mouth shut.
She took a deep breath and followed with a deep foot, a shallow foot.
Hulala's men and horses quickly packed up and moved forward on the mountain road, but many people, intentionally or unintentionally, couldn't help but look behind them.
This time, is Xie Rouqing still here?
"It's useless to come, all the places that can be explored around here have been explored, and if she comes again, she won't be able to point out the sand, which just proves her nonsense." Someone whispered.
Let's just say, how is this kind of thing possible?
Dannu bloodline, the envoy of the mountain god, thousands of years of inheritance rules, how can you joke.
Everyone nodded, urging their horses to keep up with the team.
The bustle in the mountains and forests was stirred up, and it took a long time before it quieted down, and it was nearly noon, and the sun was scorching.
Because there were many people participating in the exploration, the miners kneeling on the mountainside at this time were also densely packed.
From now until tomorrow when the third sand is over, they can't eat or drink, and it's only been a while, and some people's lips are dry, so you can imagine what it will be like if you wait for another day and a night.
"It's a sin, it's a sin."
The miners shouted and kowtowed.
Gradually, the sound changed from loud to hoarse to murmuring, and halfway up the mountainside became quiet, and in this silence, there was a slow sound of the hooves of cattle and horses.
Brother An turned his head sharply, startling the people around him and behind him.
"What's wrong?" Someone asked.
"Be reverent, and don't move." Others blamed him.
Brother An didn't speak, just looked behind him.
The people around couldn't help but turn their heads to look, and gradually more people turned their heads, and their eyes converged in one direction, and under the dazzling sunlight, there was a scalper cow walking slowly, and on it sat a girl with a small drum on her shoulder and a cane in her hand.
She......
"I'll order sand, will you come with us?" She said.
Brother An stood up stiffly.
The people around couldn't help but shudder, I don't know if it was because of this girl's words or because of Brother An's sudden stand-up.
Point sand.
She's going to sand again.
