Chapter 55: Shhhh

Chapter 55 Shhhhhh

The ancient people went to bed early, especially the people who worked, they were tired all day, and they lay down on the bed to rest after dinner, Yu Shu and Yu Xiaoxiu returned to the courtyard, the lights in each room were turned off, and there was still half a green onion cake left in the kitchen, and the two of them shared it.

Yu Xiaoxiu went out to fetch water to wash his face, Yu Shu found a pen and paper and came out, and with great interest, he took the rule of weather and rain that he had spent half a month calculating, and wrote and calculated on the paper.

This rule, she applied the eight door formulas taught to her by Qingzheng Daoist, used different hours and directions, and could calculate the weather as far as the next five days, so she made a list, made a weather table for the last five days, and annotated the location of the day's "Shengmen" on the side, which became a simple calendar.

Because she has verified the weather recorded every day in the past half a month with this law of weather and rain, the accuracy rate is as high as 90%, which makes her full of confidence at the same time, but also has a lot of ambition to study other laws, but it is a pity that the Tao is not enough, and the foundation is too poor.

By the time she had calculated this, Yu Xiaoxiu was already lying on the bed and preparing to sleep, urging her:

"Go to sleep, don't play so late today, it's not like you're going to fish."

Yu Shu folded the form and put it away, looked at the sky outside, and said, "I'll go out of the city." ”

Yu Xiaoxiu frowned, "You're still out at such a late hour?" ”

"Go and come back, don't bolt the door," Qingzheng Daoist is still waiting for her in Jingshutang, she has to go over every night, today's chess pieces haven't been caught, and the old man should be angry if he doesn't go, blowing his beard and glaring at her, saying that she is not motivated.

To be honest, if it weren't for Qingzheng Daoren's answers, which is comparable to an easy-to-learn dictionary, and only let her catch chess pieces every day, she would have betrayed her teacher a long time ago. After catching chess pieces for half a month, she didn't feel any obvious changes, and the only benefit was probably excessive mental exertion, and she fell asleep as soon as she touched the pillow.

Compared with catching chess pieces, the "Eight Door Tricks" are much more practical, at least when she goes out to go to the wealth position, she has picked up the copper plate twice in five days, and this probability has made her quite satisfied.

As usual, Yu Shu finished his daily "homework", put away the chess pieces, wiped the ground clean, took out charcoal and a booklet sewn by himself with coarse paper, and went to the side of the bamboo bed of Qingzheng Taoist to ask questions:

"Master, the direction of the injured door is easy to see blood, in addition to retreating, is there any way to avoid disasters?"

The analysis of hexagrams is available in books, but Ying Ke's countermeasures are privately passed on, and the master will not talk about it in class, and he needs to be taught privately by his elders, and Yu Shu and Yu Xiaoxiu do not have this kind of preferential treatment.

"If you open in the west, you will throw a copper coin in the north, if you open in the south, you must bring sharp weapons when you go out, if you open in"

Qing Zheng didn't speak quickly, Yu Shu only wrote down the key points, and didn't need him to repeat them, and when he was done, he continued to ask until Qing Zheng was impatient and drove her away.

"I'm sleepy for the teacher, you can go."

Every time at this time, Yu Shu would take a look: "Master, if you ask one more, you will ask one." ”

If Qing Zheng was in a good mood, he would ask her, and if she was in a bad mood, she would just turn around and lie down, with her back to her, and let her be entangled again, without paying much attention to her.

Qing Zheng seemed to be in a good mood today, so he didn't turn around and ignore him, but he didn't ask her any more questions, but admonished:

"It's late today, you will come over as soon as it gets dark tomorrow and teach you the stars for the teacher."

"Identifying the stars?" Yu Shu picked up the booklet, stood up and said casually: "It's raining tomorrow night, and I can't see the stars." ”

Qing Zheng stared at her, feeling a little strange in his heart, and raised his head and asked, "How do you know that it will rain tomorrow night?" ”

Yu Shu's eyelids jumped, and he secretly scolded himself for talking too much, and smirked on his face: "My brother listened to the master in school in the morning, why doesn't it rain tomorrow?" ”

Qing Zheng snorted, "I'll tell you about the star map first, you don't need to watch the stars - remember to bring an umbrella." ”

The last sentence confirms the statement that it will rain tomorrow night.

When Yu Shu left, he muttered in a low voice: "Is there still a Yi Shi in this Yiyang City who can launch the full moon and night rain, but the old way underestimates these people"

The next day, Yu Shu, who was sleeping soundly, was shouted by Yu Xiaoxiu, and the two of them put on their clothes, brought fishing tools and went out.

At the gate of the north courtyard, there was a nursing home on duty at night, and Yu Shu and Yu Xiaoxiu jumped in from the low wall of the big garden on a long detour and found the small garden where carp were raised.

In the morning, the dew was heavy, and the grass by the pool was wet, Yu Shu didn't let Yu Xiaoxiu come down, so he let him sit on the railing under the promenade to control the wind, squatted on the edge of the pool, pulled the flat pole and the rope, rubbed the bait and threw it down.

The sky is cloudy, it will not be bright, the fish in the pond are silver, platinum and red, one by one, occasionally one or two swim up and turn over Ding Dong, and the quiet in the small garden can be heard.

About a quarter of an hour later, a fat fish took the bait, Yu Xiaoxiu saw the movement, half of his body leaned out of the corridor, Yu Shu waved his hand at him proudly, picked up the fish and shook it to him, and then threw it into the bucket, neither of them dared to speak loudly, for fear of recruiting someone.

Yu Shu hung up another incense bait, threw the fishing line into the pool again, and was staring at the chicken feather buoy, when he suddenly heard a burst of shouts in the sky above the quiet dawn-

"Catch the thief"

Yu Shu's hand shook and scared away the fish that had just approached in the pool, she turned her head to look down the corridor, and saw Yu Xiaoxiu looking at the other side of the garden, while waving at her anxiously, and shouted:

"Sister, come up"

Yu Shu immediately put away the fishing rod, wrapped it twice, and was accidentally scratched by the hook, she bared her teeth in pain, didn't have time to look, and even jumped up and down with the fish in the bucket and ran up to the corridor.

"The thief ran away that way"

"Hurry up this person to break into the old lady's bedroom, can't let him run away"

The voice came from both sides of the corridor, Yu Shu knew that at this time, wherever she ran at this time, she would collide with someone, she was anxious, and she was involved in thieves, if she was caught, she couldn't tell if she had a mouth, so she swept back and forth, and saw the rockery behind the pond, so she pushed Yu Xiaoxiu to turn under the corridor-

"Minor repairs."

Yu Xiaoxiu jumped down awkwardly, and as soon as he stepped on the grass, Yu Shu handed the bucket over, he caught it, she also jumped down, took the bucket, and dragged him to the back of the rockery.

As soon as the two of them hid, they heard a series of footsteps and shouts on the promenade outside. Yu Shu dragged Yu Xiaoxiu's arm with one hand, clinging to the mountain wall, looking at the firelight and human figures outside from the cracks in the rocks, not daring to make any movement, for fear that someone would find them.

"Where did the people go?"

It should also be Yu Shu's bad luck, she was scratched into the palm of her hand by a fish hook before, and it happened that this hand was carrying a bucket containing fish, and she wanted to grasp it, but she clenched it tightly, but squeezed the wound, and her wrist trembled in pain, and the bucket fell down like that-

"Hmm"

Yu Shu's eyes widened, his mouth was covered by a hand behind him, the cry was muffled in his mouth, and the bucket did not make a sound, but was stopped by someone on his toes and landed firmly on the ground.

"Shhhh

There was a whispered warning in his ears, and a faint breath blew on the side of his ears, mixed with a hint of rust-like blood, and the hairs on Yu Shu's neck rose at first, and the people behind him effortlessly held their two sisters and brothers in their arms, and their arms went around their shoulders and covered their mouths firmly.

Yu Shu didn't dare to struggle, grabbed Yu Xiaoxiu's arm and made a force, Yu Xiaoxiu moved twice and quieted down, both sisters and brothers are smart, this person behind him must have attracted the thieves from the nursing home to steal, cooperate, he will probably let them go later, if he doesn't cooperate and let people catch him, it will be unlucky to follow him.

Yu Shu twisted her neck a little, squinted her eyes, and could only barely see a corner of the masked black scarf, judging from her size, this person was more than a head taller than her, and he was an adult man.

"Not here, go over there"

The group of nursing homes outside stayed on the corridor for a while, and then left with the lamp, but Yu Shu's heart did not let go, because the person behind him did not relax, but strangled Yu Xiaoxiu with one hand and took half a step back, suppressed Yu Xiaoxiu's struggle, and said to Yu Shu in a dumb voice:

"Take me to safety."

The sky was already a little bright, Yu Shu squinted at the masked man with a black hood and only showed a pair of eyes on the arm around Yu Xiaoxiu's neck, and pinched his palm.

"Follow me."

Narrowly avoiding several waves of alarmed nurses and families, Yu Shu led people back to the miscellaneous courtyard, involuntarily.

Before dawn, only the chickens woke up in the courtyard, Yu Shu pushed the door open, dodged and let the masked thief sneak Yu Xiaoxiu inside, put the bucket behind the door, closed the door, dropped the latch, and went over to take the fire fold, but was pulled by the man.

"Don't light the lights yet."

"Well," Yu Shu obediently put down the fire, looked at the dim figure opposite, and whispered: "This is where the two of us live, we don't run, can you let my brother go?" ”

The man hesitated, then let go of Yu Xiaoxiu, and as soon as he was free, Yu Xiaoxiu pushed the man away and blocked in front of Yu Shu, stared at the other party viciously, and said:

"What do you want to do?"

The masked thief ignored him and sat down on the edge of the table.

"Xiao Xiu," Yu Shu grabbed him from behind and said comfortingly: "Be quiet, if you invite someone, the two of us will be unlucky with him." ”

Hearing this, the masked thief glanced up at Yu Shu's direction, seemed to smile bitterly, and then whispered to her:

"Little brother, don't worry, I'll take care of my injuries and leave, I won't hurt you, just light the lamp."

Yu Shu patted Yu Xiaoxiu's shoulder, stepped forward to light the oil lamp, the bean-sized light illuminated this small piece, she peeled off her sweaty bangs, and as soon as she looked up, she faced a pair of black hole eyes, her heart jumped, the masked thief stared at her twice, turned his head to look at Yu Xiaoxiu, and said to him:

"Go get a basin of water."

Yu Xiaoxiu snorted, Yu Shu pushed him, and then reluctantly walked out of the basin with the water.

As soon as the door opened and closed, Yu Shu stood at the table and quietly looked at the masked thief, heard him exhale softly, then started to untie his shirt, and removed the shirt in three or two clicks, revealing a tight upper body, the two chest muscles were tense up, smooth and strong, if it weren't for the fact that the place with a few pointed hidden weapons under his chest was hissing and bleeding, Yu Shu could still calmly appreciate the other party's good figure.

He tore his white midcoat into strips with two snorts, lowered his head and pulled out the hidden weapons in his abdomen one by one, Yu Shu heard him snort lightly, although he couldn't see his expression, he was expected to frown.

Unplugged these little things and threw them on the table with a few "dings", he found a medicine bottle out of nowhere, sprinkled the medicine powder on the wound, wrapped the cloth around his abdomen twice quickly, and then reached out and touched it behind his back, hissed lightly, raised his head and said to Yu Shu:

"Do me a favor."

As he spoke, he turned around, revealing his sweaty back.
