Chapter 5: The Abyss of Depth and Shallowness (4)
"Plus what's in your waist, aren't all three keys available? How is it not in order? Cheng Zhishen asked.
"It's all, it's all." Bao Dachang said calmly, "There is still one person missing, isn't it?" ”
"Missing someone?" Cheng Zhishen turned around, raised his hand to give the key to Cheng Xi behind him, clapped his hands and said, "Isn't this it?" ”
"Ninth Young Master, don't be embarrassed for me." Bao Tai Cheong Road.
"Bao Ye, how could I be difficult for you?" Cheng Zhishen smiled slightly, "Master Bao, you don't believe me." Luckily, I have my father's handwritten letter here. Woo"
Bao Dachang took it with both hands and watched.
"It's all right, right?" Cheng Zhi said cautiously, with a hint of impatience in his tone.
Bao Dachang folded the note and put it in his sleeve.
Cheng Zhishen looked at the bunch of keys on Bao Dachang's waist, and saw Bao Dachang bow slightly, thinking that he could open the prison door now, and he was overjoyed, but unexpectedly Bao Dachang took two steps back and shouted: "Four treasures." ”
Sibao, who was standing behind Bao Ye, hurriedly responded: "Here." ”
"Send the Ninth Young Master." Bao Ye said.
"Yes, Dad." When Sibao heard his father's words, he immediately stood in front and said loudly, "Ninth Young Master, please." "He looks like five big and three thick, and at this moment he pulled out his posture and went there with a pestle, and he was bluffing.
Cheng Zhishen is tall and thin, and although the two long followers behind him are strong, they can be the kung fu of the four treasures...... Cheng Zhishen thought about what to do, he couldn't beat it, even if he could beat the four treasures, Bao Ye's ...... He still had a slight smile on his face, "Bao Ye......"
He made up his mind to come in and take Jingyi out today, but he didn't expect that although Bao Dachang was a martial artist, he strictly abided by his principles, and it was really not easy to fool him...... That's a bit tricky.
Zhishen is using his brain, how can he let Bao Dachang open up the net so that he can enter......
"Ninth Young Master, the rules of the house for more than 100 years, only recognize the key in the courtyard, not the person." Bao Dachang said lightly.
"Bao Dachang!" Cheng Zhishen is young in the end, and when Bao Dachang said this, the smile on his face finally faded away.
"Ninth Young Master, please." Bao Ye lowered his head slightly. Deferential, yet stubborn.
"You!" Cheng Zhishen glared at Bao Dachang, as if he could burst out of flames in his eyes, "You look good!" He glanced at the cell door, turned around and lifted his robe, and walked out. On his feet were two pieces of cowhide shoes, which made a loud noise when he stepped on the damp stone floor. He walked up the high steps in a huff, but his feet were slippery, and he almost fell, but someone behind him reached out and held him firmly. Cheng Zhishen looked up and saw that it was the Four Treasures. He shook off Sibao's hand, took two more steps, and walked out of the dungeon, above which was an empty chamber.
Cheng Zhishen walked out of the door of the wing, but saw that it was dark outside, and the rain was falling sharply at this time, and the rain was urgent.
Cheng Xi hurriedly opened the oil-paper umbrella, and the rain crackled on the umbrella, but Cheng Zhishen walked directly into the rain.
"Ninth Young Master go slowly." Sibao sent Cheng Zhishen and his party out of the gate of the Kanyuan and said.
Cheng Zhishen's face was very ugly, he turned his head and glanced at the gate of Kanyuan fiercely, and then glared at Sibao.
Four treasures are embarrassed.
Zhishen thought that Sibao and him had also been in love since childhood, and when he saw his embarrassed appearance, he couldn't bear to criticize him for a while, but just said: "You just watch Xiao Shi rectify the master!" ”
The four treasures waited for Cheng Zhishen to walk away, and then turned around and latched the iron gate. Under the porch, the sheep's horn headlamp is very bright and immovable in the wind.
Kanwon is the only place in the house where there is no electric light. But this claw lamp looks more in line with the identity of Kanyuan.
Sibao looked at his father who was standing at the door of the upper room. My father came up from the dungeon at some point.
At this time, the rain is urgent, and the rain falls on the stone pavement and grass in the garden, and the water splashes, adding to the coldness of the autumn night.
"Come in and talk." Bao Dachang said.
When Sibao walked over, Bao Dachang had already entered the upper room, was sitting on the side seat, took a green cloth tobacco pouch, and filled the tobacco pot with tobacco, unhurried.
"Close the door." Bao Dachang said.
Sibao turned around and closed the door. The room was darker.
This place is called Kanyuan Shangfang, and it is not inhabited on weekdays. Occasionally, the masters would interrogate those who had been locked up, and they would stay here for a while.
"From taking you to the home and letting you into Kanyuan, on the first day, my father told you, as a person in Kanyuan, what do you have to guard first?"
"Quit greed, sex, and gambling; No friends, no groups, no ......"
"Say!"
"Daddy, the child is wrong."
Bao Dachang lit the cigarette pot and pressed it violently on his son's forehead.
Sibao was in pain and didn't dare to make a sound.
"Don't be soft-hearted." Bao Dachang said word by word.
The smell of burnt flesh was in the air.
"Kneel. It's a long memory. Bao Dachang took the cigarette again and took a puff.
Sibao's forehead hurt in his heart, "Dad...... The Ninth Young Master said......"
Bao Dachang smoked a cigarette, glanced at his son, and did not speak.
"Dad, Miss Ten is so stubborn, maybe something is really wrong...... Dad, the second wife and Miss Ten are all rare good masters...... Father! ”
"According to the old man's temper, Miss Ten is dead, and she has to go to the Tao family to die." Bao Dachang said.
Sibao looked at his father blankly.
"You don't know that in the summer, you help Miss Ten deliver letters; This time, you can't get out of it either! ”
Sibao stiffened his neck, but was silent.
"If you dare to get involved in the master's affairs, it won't be so easy to add a scar to the top of your head, Si'er. Look at what happened to Zhixi. ”
"He's not ...... yet" Sibao was a little unconvinced, thought about it, and probably felt that it was inappropriate, so he didn't continue.
Bao Dachang took out the strip that Cheng Zhishen gave him just now from his pocket, glanced at it, put it into a strip, put it on the smoke pot, took a puff, the tobacco was red, the note was ignited, and after a while, the paper was turned into ashes.
"Mo's is nine points similar, but unfortunately, it lacks that decades of old spiciness."
……
"Where are the horse's feet?" Cheng Zhishen walked out of the courtyard and muttered in annoyance.
He took the risk and wanted to get Jingyi out first.
Could it be that after bringing Jingyi out, my father would really throw him into the dungeon again? Can't you......
"Young master, you have to hurry up, otherwise it will be difficult for the master to find out." Cheng Xi whispered.
Zhishen gave Cheng Xi a moment when he returned his hand, and scolded: "I don't have any eyesight, don't you see that I'm thinking about something?" ”
Cheng Yi lowered his head, dodged over, and said, "But young master, you really have to hurry." Otherwise, not only did you not save Miss Ten, but if you can't get it, the master will join you...... Young master, don't add to the chaos, it's already messy enough......"
"Shut up!" Zhishen didn't admit it, but his heart was anxious by Cheng Xi's words-he raised his eyes to see that this narrow road, paved with blue bricks, and a lamp in front of it shone a short bit of light, but farther away, it was pitch black, and farther away, the light could be seen...... That's the side entrance to the West Garden. That's where they came from.
Zhishen frowned, holding two bronze keys in his hands.
He painstakingly stole two keys......
"I really don't know what the master thinks, the Tao family's ...... The Tao family said that it was good, but Miss Ten was not happy. The twisted melon is not sweet......" Cheng Xi said in a low voice.
"Smack".
Cheng Zhishen gave Cheng Xi another slap, and this time it really happened.
"Young master, I said it wrong again?" Cheng Xi touched the back of his head and glanced aggrievedly at Cheng Yi, who was walking behind with an umbrella. Cheng leaned on him. Cheng Xi hurriedly walked to the front and knocked on the gate of the East Garden. After a while, someone inside knocked on the wooden door, and Cheng Xi also knocked. The door opened, and it was an old mother. When he opened the door, he didn't speak, only flashed to the side, and Cheng Xi entered the garden gate and put out the light in his hand.
Out of the East Garden, Zhishen's pace is getting faster and faster. I saw the main courtyard where my parents lived.
He was pondering how to get the keys in his hand to his father's and mother's key boxes when he heard a panicked footsteps.
"Ninth Young Master...... Master! "Someone came with a lamp, raised his hand and waved, and began to shout from afar.
Zhi Shen saw that it was the second housekeeper Cheng Dagui, frowned, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"I've got you. The old man sent someone to pass on the young master, saying that there was something important. The old man is in the study right now, let the young master go quickly. Cheng Dagui said.
When Zhishen heard the word "important matter", he couldn't help but tremble. I don't think it's a "key", but an "important thing" - but this "important thing" must not be about the "key".
Zhishen is a little sick in his heart.
At this time, he was at the intersection, and he walked a few steps forward into his mother's yard. In the mother's room, I'm afraid that my aunt is there at this time.
He sighed and went to see his father, if you want to ventilate your mother, it would be okay......
"Young Master! This way. Cheng Xi was stunned when he saw this, and reminded him that it was time to turn around.
Zhishen took out a key from his arms, carried Cheng Dagui on his back, stuffed it to Cheng Xi, and snorted at the upper room.
Cheng Xi understood, "Young Master...... Then you ......"
Zhi Shen glared.
Cheng Xi didn't speak anymore, just stood there worriedly, watching Cheng Zhishen follow Cheng Dagui into the narrow alley.
Zhi Shen walked and walked, beckoned his hand, and called Cheng Yi, who was following him closely, to come over.
"I haven't come out in half an hour, so you can go back." He commanded.
