Chapter Seventy-Five: Consultation
Walking like this, after a while, the two came to Lixiang Garden. As soon as he entered the gate, he saw Ling Yu dancing his sword in the courtyard from a distance, and when he saw Ye Xiaoyu and the two of them, he stopped and walked towards them.
"Why so early?"
Ling Yu asked while wiping the beads of sweat from his forehead.
"Something happened last night, and I woke up early today."
Ye Xiaoyu smiled helplessly, if it weren't for Hong'er's state, she would definitely think that what happened last night was just a nightmare.
When Ling Yu heard Ye Xiaoyu say this, he expected that something strange must have happened last night, so he hurriedly took the two of them to the stone table in the garden, so that Ye Xiaoyu could speak in detail.
After sitting down, Ye Xiaoyu simply told what happened last night, and naturally did not say a word about the nightmare she had later.
"It seems that that thing has already begun to attack the Lu family. Good thing you didn't get hurt. ”
Ling Yu looked at Ye Xiaoyu and said. First Lu Qian, then Ye Xiaoyu, it seems that that thing has already been in the "golden mountain" of the Lu family.
"One of the problems I found was that as long as the doors and windows were strong enough and closed tightly, they wouldn't be able to get into the house. It didn't get in last night. ”
Ye Xiaoyu closed the doors and windows last night, and even if that thing roared and slapped outside, it couldn't get in. In fact, this attribute of it is not quite the same as the legendary demon with high mana. The demons described in folklore and strange novels generally have the skill of penetrating walls, and can enter and exit other people's houses at will without hindrance, but judging from last night, this evil spirit does not have such ability. This made Ye Xiaoyu very puzzled.
"Is it afraid of anything in your house? It stands to reason that this should not be the case. ”
Qinglang, who had been sitting next to him and was silent, also opened his mouth at this time. He had the same question as Ye Xiaoyu.
"It didn't succeed last night, it definitely won't give up, it is estimated that it will still appear tonight, we have to think of a countermeasure, there is really no way, or Xiaoyu will move to another place to stay for two nights first."
Ling Yu didn't care about anything else, what he was most worried about was Ye Xiaoyu's safety, Nanyuan was unoccupied now, if it came back at night, what should Ye Xiaoyu be a little girl?
Moving somewhere else? Hong'er also mentioned this last night, but where can she move to? Lu Yishou is not here now, if he wants Jiang Ping to take him in, he must ask her, and it will take a lot of words, but the result may not be feasible. As for Lu Qian, it is even more impossible, she is now probably wishing that Ye Xiaoyu was scared to death by evil spirits. Therefore, except for the room in Nanyuan arranged by Lu Yishou for himself, Ye Xiaoyu really has nowhere to go. Moreover, the most important thing is that you can't hide for a lifetime, if you live in the Lu family, you will be found by it sooner or later. Even if it can get away with it, it's the same if it looks for someone else. Since this is the case, it is better to turn the passive into the active and find a way to end it yourself.
"I have a little plan here, you see, will this work?"
Ye Xiaoyu motioned for the two of them to bring their heads closer and whispered their thoughts about tonight.
"It's too dangerous...... You're a girl, have you forgotten what happened in the alley that night? Absolutely not. ”
After listening to Ye Xiaoyu's thoughts, Ling Yu immediately objected. He still remembered that Ye Xiaoyu was almost captured by the villain that night, and he listened to Ye Xiaoyu's advice that day, so this time, he must not let her take this risk again.
"This time will definitely be different from that day, I will be fully prepared, don't worry."
After Ye Xiaoyu finished speaking, he glanced at Qinglang who was sitting next to him, he didn't mention the matter of going to the village with Ling Yu that night, and he didn't know if he noticed it just now.
"No, I'm still not at ease. Otherwise, let me ......"
Ling Yu was still opposed. Lu Qian was already frightened, since Ye Xiaoyu had escaped once, he couldn't let her take another risk.
"Poof...... You think that thing is stupid? We are so different that the average person can see it at a glance, let alone it. ”
Don't talk about anything else, just the height alone, there is no way to hide it.
"If there is no better way, I would agree with her advice."
Qing Lang opened his mouth lightly, but did not ask what happened "that night".
"She's a girl, I can't be as indifferent as you!"
Seeing that Qing Lang actually agreed to Ye Xiaoyu's suggestion, Ling Yu couldn't believe it, he just recently felt that although Qing Lang was sullen, he was thoughtful and thoughtful. But now it seems that his so-called meticulousness is based on indifference, and people can only think so clearly if they don't care about anything, so that they don't attach their own feelings and emotions.
"Alright, so be it. I know that Ling Gongzi is for my good and worried about my safety, but I have also thought about it a lot, and I have already decided, let's go to Liu Banxian's residence now. ”
Ye Xiaoyu didn't know Ling Yu's concerns, but the matter had come to this, if he didn't take the initiative to attack, this shadow would remain for a lifetime. Long pain is better than short pain, and if you are lucky at night, not only will you be free, but the shadow that hangs over Quanxiu Village will also dissipate.
"But ......"
Ling Yu wanted to say something more, but he didn't know where to start, so he could only reluctantly put the sword back in the house and go to Liu Banxian's residence with Ye Xiaoyu and them.
Even though it was morning, there was no one in the village, the exact opposite of the previous scene of people coming and going. asked several people in a row before finding Liu Banxian's residence.
The houses in Quanxiu Village are generally built along the central street, but Liu Banxian's thatched house is built a little far from the street, surrounded by ridges and wasteland, and his house is built there alone, which seems a little abrupt.
Hearing Liu Banxian say that he is traveling all over the world and has no fixed residence, it seems that the "business" of Quanxiu Village is really good, otherwise he would not have built a house to live here.
This place is empty, if Liu Banxian is at home, the three of them will definitely be found if they walk over like this. However, there is only such a way to go to his house, and it is really an old fox, and even this kind of thing has been calculated, Ye Xiaoyu can't help but curse in her heart.
"He's not at home."
As if seeing Ye Xiaoyu's worries, Qinglang suddenly said.
"How do you know?"
Ling Yu looked incredulous. Since Qinglang agreed with Ye Xiaoyu's opinion just now, he felt more and more that Qinglang was very cold-blooded.
"When I passed by Qianfu just now, the sound of gongs and drums came from inside, and the ritual had already begun. Will you throw a benchmark? ”
Qing Lang looked at Ling Yu and asked. The so-called benchmarking is a kind of sports activity in the country of Daye, like throwing a shot put, the player holds a wooden pole and throws it forward, and whoever throws the farthest wins. The reason why I asked Ling Yu was because this kind of activity was very popular among the rich people in the capital.
"Well, some."
Ling Yu was a little puzzled by Qinglang suddenly asking this kind of question.
"Can you throw it over there?"
Qinglang pointed to Liu Banxian's courtyard and said.
"I'll try, and it should work."
Although there is open space all around, the house is not very far from this side, and with a little effort, it should be no problem to throw it there.
After listening to Ling Yu's answer, Qing Lang took a wooden stick out of nowhere and handed it to him, looking at the appearance of the wooden stick, although it was not as good as the benchmark standard, it was not too light and fluttering, with a little weight, and it was easier to shoot.
Taking the wooden stick, Ling Yu immediately understood Qinglang's intentions, and threw it towards the house with all his strength.
