On this day, they came to the small river at the head of the village. When I think about fishing here, it seems to be yesterday.

Lu Xiaoxian turned his head to look at Zhang Meng, and just as Zhang Meng also glanced at him, the eyes of the two collided together, and they invariably showed a knowing smile.

When I went back, I saw a house in the distance, the courtyard wall was made of blue bricks, and there were two steps in front of the door. The house should have been built later, and when Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang were still in Kushui Village, it was originally an empty land.

When they got closer, they found a man in a white shirt standing on the steps of the house, looking at them curiously.

Lu Xiaoxian didn't pay attention to the white-shirted boy, but looked at this strange mansion.

The plaque on the door of the mansion read "Xu Wangfu", and the surprise on his face flashed.

King Xu should be the title of Li Sujie, the fourth son of Gaozong Li Zhi, how could King Xu's Mansion appear in Kushui Village?

Although this mansion looks good, it is far from the specifications of the Prince's Palace.

And the plaque, which is small and pitiful, is not in gilded font, as if it was written with an ordinary brush.

What's going on here?

Lu Xiaoxian remained silent, and paid attention to the white-shirted boy on the steps.

In the journey of life, no matter who you are, you will meet people who feel uncomfortable. Maybe there are reasons for this, or maybe there is no reason at all. The white-shirted boy in front of him is the one who makes Lu Xiaoxian feel extremely uncomfortable.

The white-shirted boy was condescending, and suddenly asked: "I heard that the two of you have been trapped in Wangyun Mountain for eight years, what is going on, tell this king carefully!" ”

Obviously, the news of Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng's return from Wangyun Mountain has spread all over Kushui Village, otherwise the white-shirted boy would not have asked so curiously.

Lu Xiaoxian frowned, the white-shirted boy spoke very politely, and he had never had a good impression of people who were not polite.

He said to Zhang Meng in a deep voice: "When you meet a madman, go, don't pay attention to him!" ”

After that, he pulled Zhang Meng and left.

"Wait!" Behind him, the angry voice of the white-shirted boy came.

As if they hadn't heard, the two of them continued to walk without stopping in their footsteps.

"Stop!" The white-shirted boy roared.

Obviously, Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng ignored him, which made him very faceless.

The two still ignored him.

The white-shirted boy finally couldn't help it, and ran behind the two of them in three or two steps.

"I'll make you stand ......"

The white-shirted boy was going to grab Lu Xiaoxian's neck, but Lu Xiaoxian seemed to have eyes behind his back, and his body was crooked and lightly dodged.

The white-shirted boy came fiercely, grabbed his empty body and rushed forward with inertia. Lu Xiaoxian slapped him behind the back, and the two forces were added together, and the white-shirted boy fell to the ground eating.

Getting up from the ground, the white-shirted boy's clothes were covered with dirt, and he instantly became a "yellow-shirted" boy.

At this time, he felt even more embarrassed, and his anger immediately escalated, and he attacked Lu Xiaoxian with a fist.

Bow your head when you should bow your head, and you have to hit the wall if you don't bow your head. Looking at the menacing appearance of the white-shirted boy, Lu Xiaoxian shook his head slightly.

The white-shirted boy's fist was thunderous, but in Lu Xiaoxian's eyes, it was still too slow, too slow.

The white-shirted man's fist came to his eyes, and Lu Xiaoxian dodged it again. The white-shirted boy punched the air, and the anger in his heart became even hotter, and he launched a more fierce attack on Lu Xiaoxian.

Lu Xiaoxian stretched his body, moved and jumped, just like playing in the forest of Wangyun Mountain, and played hide and seek with the white-shirted boy.

Zhang Meng was on the side, with his arms folded in front of his chest, as if watching a play, with a leisurely expression.

After a cup of tea, the white-shirted boy didn't even touch the corners of Lu Xiaoxian's clothes, his face was pale, and his offensive was even worse, and his gaze could kill people.

One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion.

After another cup of tea, the white-shirted boy was tired and panting, and his movements became stiff and slow.

Lu Xiaoxian's face did not change, and it was better to take a leisurely stroll.

Finally, the white-shirted boy stopped, he had to stop, he no longer had any strength.

Lu Xiaoxian stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder: "It's better to be angry and hurt your body a lot, it's better to be less angry in the future!" ”

The white-shirted boy gasped for breath and looked at Lu Xiaoxian with a resentful gaze.

Either life and death are downplayed, and if you are not convinced, you will do it. If your skills are not as good as others, you should bow your head. Lu Xiaoxian looked down on such a pretentious person, lazy to take care of him again, and turned around and left with Zhang Meng.

The two of them did not go back to their residence directly, but came to Liu Lizheng. tactfully explained his intentions, and Liu Lizheng agreed to give them a way out without saying a word.

Datang has a strict household registration management system, if you want to leave your hometown, you must have a checkpoint pass like "Lu Yin" to get to where you want to go, otherwise you will be arrested and imprisoned.

When parting, Lu Xiaoxian asked casually: "Liu Lizheng, what's going on with the Xu Wangfu in the east of the village?" ”

Liu Lizheng looked at Lu Xiaoxian in surprise: "Did you provoke Li Xun?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian's face did not change and said: "None of us provoked, but we haven't seen this mansion before, just ask!" ”

"Oh!" Liu Lizheng breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and said with a bitter face, "That mansion lives Li Xun, the eldest son of King Xu Li Sujie, Li Sujie committed suicide two years ago, Li Xun was assigned to Kushui Village, and the house was newly built after he came to Kushui Village!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian talked to Liu Lizheng again, and then said goodbye and left.

On the way back, Lu Xiaoxian stopped at the edge of a bamboo forest and broke some bamboo branches. These bamboo branches are thick with a thumb and are very tough.

Zhang Meng asked strangely: "Xiaoxian, what are you doing here?" ”

"It's useful!" Lu Xiaoxian's face was mysterious.

……

In the middle of the night, a muffled snort suddenly came from outside the house, and Zhang Meng, who was asleep, was awakened. He felt strange, his family was so poor that even the rats would leave in tears, how could he recruit a thief?

As soon as he sat up, Lu Xiaoxian's deep voice came from the darkness: "Don't move, don't do anything!" ”

Zhang Meng didn't know what Lu Xiaoxian meant, so he had to sit on the bed honestly.

There was a sound of rustling in the courtyard, and there was no movement after a while.

Lu Xiaoxian got up, quietly opened the door of the house, stood at the door and stopped to listen, then closed the door and returned to the bed.

Zhang Meng was about to ask, but saw Lu Xiaoxian stretching his waist: "Okay, sleep!" I'll talk about it tomorrow when I wake up. ”

Before Zhang Meng could ask, he was forced back into his stomach by Lu Xiaoxian.

Lu Xiaoxian fell asleep with his clothes and soon fell asleep.

Zhang Meng couldn't sleep anyway, he kept his ears vigilant, for fear that there would be any more movement outside the house.

Finally survived until dawn, as soon as Lu Xiaoxian opened his eyes, Zhang Meng couldn't wait to ask: "Xiaoxian, last night, what happened last night?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian got out of bed and walked out of the house with his hands behind his back: "Come with me!" ”

Under the root of the inner wall of the courtyard wall, there are many bamboo sticks, the bottom of which is buried deep in the soil, only the top part of the sharpened part is exposed, and the remaining blood stains on several of the bamboo sticks have dried up.

These bamboo sticks were made by Lu Xiaoxian yesterday with folded bamboo branches. At that time, Zhang Meng was puzzled and asked Lu Xiaoxian for a long time, but he didn't ask why.

At this moment, he suddenly realized: "Xiaoxian, how do you know that there will be thieves at night?" ”

"Where is the thief? It must be someone sent by Li Xun! Lu Xiaoxian smiled, "After listening to Liu Lizheng's introduction yesterday, I guess that Li Xun is arrogant and arrogant, and he will definitely not give up if he suffers a loss!" ”

Zhang Meng's lips moved, Lu Xiaoxian knew what he wanted to ask, and then said: "This kind of thing can only be done secretly, it is so dark at night, when they see that we are prepared, they will naturally retreat!" ”

Zhang Meng's face showed a sad face: "If they ...... again"

Lu Xiaoxian said indifferently: "Don't worry, I have a way to deal with him, or it won't be long before they come to the door to beg me!" ”

As soon as the words fell, I heard a voice from outside the courtyard gate: "May I ask if Lu Gongzi and Zhang Gongzi are there?" ”

Sure enough, it came!

Could it be Li Xun?

It doesn't seem to be like it, listening to the voice is much older than Li Xun, Zhang Menghu looked at Lu Xiaoxian suspiciously.

Lu Xiaoxian shouted at the courtyard gate: "Please come in!" ”

The door opened, and four old men rushed in from the outside, standing side by side in front of Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng.

They were about sixty years old, full of vicissitudes, and each of them had a disability.

One person on the left side is one-legged.

There are two people in the middle, one with one eye and the other with one ear.

On the far right is a one-armed.

Lu Xiaoxian looked at the four people in front of him, and a strange feeling suddenly invaded. This strange feeling is not because of their vicissitudes, nor because of their disability, but because of the looming aura that they exude.

Zhang Meng whispered in Lu Xiaoxian's ear: "Xiaoxian, these four people are not simple, you should be careful." ”

Lu Xiaoxian didn't speak, just stared at the four of them with a smile.

The one-legged old man on the far left hugged his fist to Lu Xiaoxian: "I implore the two sons to let go of my master!" ”

"Spare your master?" Lu Xiaoxian deliberately pretended to be stupid, "What do you mean by this?" ”

The one-legged old man bowed to Lu Xiaoxian to the end: "My master has been offended, and the four of us have made a special trip to make amends to the two sons, and ask the two sons to let my master go!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian shook his head and said nothing.

"Toast and don't eat and drink!" The one-eyed old man on the side suddenly yelled at Lu Xiaoxian, "Do you have to tie you up before you are willing to go?" ”

Lu Xiaoxian's face did not change, and said indifferently: "Listen to the respect, you can tie it up!" ”

"Shut up!" The one-legged old man scolded the one-eyed old man angrily, and then knelt down towards Lu Xiaoxian, "I beg the two sons to let go of my master!" ”

He only had one leg left, and his knee hit the ground hard, and the weight of his whole body suddenly pressed on one leg, and the muscles on his face became a little twisted.

The one-legged old man's actions made Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng couldn't help but be moved.

"Big brother!" The one-eyed old man hissed.

The one-legged old man yelled at the other three old men, "What are you still doing in a daze? ”

After the one-legged old man finished speaking, the three old men knelt in front of Lu Xiaoxian and Zhang Meng, and said loudly: "I beg the second son to let my master go!" ”

Zhang Meng couldn't see such a situation, he looked at Lu Xiaoxian with a pleading gaze.

When confronting others, soft-heartedness is a taboo. In the eight years of Wangyun Mountain, the ghost who lacked virtue never forgot to warn Lu Xiaoxian about this.

Lu Xiaoxian wanted to be ruthless, but the scene in front of him still made him feel a little unbearable.

After a long time, he sighed and said to the four old men, "Okay! I'll go with you! Arise yourselves. ”

The four old servants listened to Lu Xiaoxian's words, their faces showed joy, and they helped each other to stand up.

Zhang Meng was concerned about Lu Xiaoxian's safety, and hurriedly said, "I'll go with you!" ”

Lu Xiaoxian patted him on the shoulder and handed over a reassuring look: "I'll go alone, you just wait at home!" Rest assured! ”

Zhang Meng still insisted, but Lu Xiaoxian waved his hand to stop him, and then said to the four old men: "Lead the way in front of the head!" ”

The four of them thanked each other and got up and led Lu Xiaoxian out of the door.
