Chapter Eighty-Eight: The Book
I rummaged through the corpse of the deceased a few times, and a few pieces of broken silver, and a large piece of gold, which weighed ten taels at all.
Hu Xiu's eyes lit up, isn't this so-called evidence coming. Undercurrent used this person to infiltrate the Relic Pavilion and obtain certain information about Chen Daosheng's ambush.
He also lured the son of the Yan family to help them get the formula, and then everything could be explained clearly, and this gold is the evidence.
As for the lack of evidence, Hu Xiu doesn't care about this, as for the little brother who really wants to avenge the death, he doesn't have so much spare work.
Sometimes, the position of the station is different, and it seems that the heart also shifts with the shift of the position. But the person is still the same person, and it hasn't changed.
"You go back first, call a few people from the Secret Prison Mansion to come over, and drag the body back, this piece of gold is evidence. The record said that the undercurrent people bought this person, and then killed the person because they were afraid that the matter would be exposed. ”
"Whoa." The cold-faced young man turned around and walked away quickly.
Hu Xiu's remarks were really right by him, this back hand was arranged by the young man in the secret room, he didn't care about the formula of this ambush fire, and he didn't care about one more death.
He just wanted to intimidate Hu Xiu through psychological coercion, but in fact, from the moment Hu Xiu left the secret prison mansion, someone already knew his movements.
After clearing the code, he notified the undercurrent killer in the Relics Pavilion, and immediately placed the killer, killed the person who had already been knocked unconscious, and then left the scene of the crime himself.
But they agreed to make a mistake, their arrogant behavior, the Black Dragon Guard of the Dark Prison Mansion is also not a vegetarian......
Now there is only Hu Xiu and the people of the Relic Pavilion left, staying here.
"Where is Chen Daosheng's room?"
Hu Xiu found something wrong, Chen Daosheng said yesterday that he went home to get a change of clothes, but when he arrived at the Relics Pavilion, he found that something seemed to be wrong.
Looking at this soberness, it seems that the Relic Pavilion can live in people, so which house did they go to yesterday? It is not excluded that he lives in two, which is a trivial matter and does not matter.
"I don't know." This was said by the woman, the only one who had the courage between them, and the rest of them raised their hands and pointed to the room opposite the main door, the room on the far left.
Hu Xiu sneered, timid people are afraid of everything, they can say anything, this woman met this group of pig teammates, and she was still thinking about what to hide, so she was a little stupid.
Turning around, he walked to the door, and pushed open the wooden door, and the room was very simple, except for a few tools, just a bed, a chair, a table, and nothing else.
Glancing at the Qingluan sword on his waist, he thought about whether to split it with a sword, how to think that his average strength ability could not be used on a sharp weapon.
But after thinking about it, he didn't know where the book clip was, and he was afraid that if he used his strength, he would directly split the book in half, and it would be more than worth the loss. Besides, his strength is increasing every day, and he doesn't know how much strength he has now, so let's take this opportunity to practice.
Suddenly, his eyes seemed to be open behind him, his hair was tied up, Hu Xiucha suddenly felt uneasy in his heart, subconsciously raised his hand, protected his head, and only heard a sound of "bang~".
Something smashed on Hu Xiu's arm, and if Hu Xiu didn't raise his hand just now, he would have to hit his head.
Hu Xiu raised his head and looked at his face, damn, it's not that woman, the entire Legacy Pavilion can be regarded as a man's woman.
She also seemed to be stunned for a moment, the whip leg she sneaked up on was blocked like that?
"Tell me, why did you sneak up on me?" Hu Xiu is not a person who can't walk when he sees a woman, he is not a good man and a woman. If you don't give him a good introduction, he won't give up.
"You want to take Uncle Chen's things and break into his house without permission, and you still ask me why I beat you?"
Hu Xiu was dumbfounded, it seemed that something was really wrong, his behavior, in modern times, can be regarded as a private house, plus theft... A book of crimes.
"I don't want to take it privately, it's Chen Daosheng who said that he has a book here and wants me to help him get it." Hu Xiu also wants to be faced, so naturally he has to explain it clearly.
"Uncle Chen didn't run away?"
The woman said that she was probably escaping from Heian City.
"Well, he's with me right now."
"You caught him?"
"No, it's just that someone wants to kill him, and my house is bigger, so let him live with me first."
Why does someone want to kill him, Hu Xiu understands it very well in his heart, it's just that someone wants the formula of ambushing the fire, killing will only be incidental, otherwise which killer will be idle and kill a nine-grade unguard?
But in the final analysis, it was because Hu Xiu gave him the formula for the ambush fire.
"So you saved Uncle Chen?"
"Hmm." Hu Xiutian hummed shamelessly, being thick-skinned naturally has the benefit of being thick-skinned, and lying doesn't blush.
"Then we won't be good friends, my name is Chen Yien, what's your name."
"Just call me Hu Xiu." Hu Xiu looked at this girl, he was a little big-hearted.
"Uncle Chen, did you ask you to come to his book."
"Yes, he said in the plank between the beds."
"I know the password~" Chen Yien smiled slyly, lifted the quilt spread on the bed aside, squatted at the head of the bed, and sure enough, there was a wooden compass.
I saw that she turned a few squares to the left, and then to the right, repeating in turn, but the number of squares rotated each time was different, Hu Xiu wanted to try to memorize it, but found that it couldn't be done, it was too complicated.
With the last turn of the compass, I saw that the bed board had shifted a little to the left, and a thick yellowed book was revealed.
Hu Xiu stretched out his hand and took it, flipped through it casually, but he couldn't understand it at all, especially the drawings that looked like monsters, and the annotations next to them, but even if there were annotations, he didn't understand them, and Hu Xiu almost suspected that he was illiterate.
"It should be this one, thank you Miss Yien." Although Hu Xiu is still a little unaccustomed to talking about her girl, what can she say if she doesn't talk about the girl.
It's a pity, he still wants to take this bed to test his strength.
"It's okay, are you going back?"
"Yes." Hu Xiu still wants to give this book to Chen Daosheng, of course he wants to go back, as for the Relics Pavilion, although there are many strange objects here, he is not specifically engaged in this, he has no meaning here.
Hu Xiu can be regarded as half a business faction.
"Can I come with you to your house? I want to meet Uncle Chen. ”
"Uh... Naturally, yes. "Maybe I haven't seen his uncle for too long and I miss him very much, Hu Xiu thought like this, so he agreed.
Although Chen Yien is a woman, her physical strength is still good, from the Secret Prison Mansion to the Testament Pavilion, and from the Testament Pavilion to the Hu Wang's Mansion in the west of the city, I didn't see her shout a word of foot pain, and she didn't even shout when she was tired.
Sure enough, she is a female man, she is very strong, and the only flaw is that she is too handsome. As a man, Hu Xiu is envious, if he can look like this, he can wake up with a smile in his dreams.
"It's here, let's go inside."
Chen Yien looked up at the plaque on his head, and said silently, "Hu Wangfu." ”
followed Hu Xiu in, and she hurriedly followed, as if Grandma Liu had entered the Grand View Garden, the first time, she had to look at everything, and she had to touch the novelty things.
Hu Xiu saw all this in his eyes, and he didn't stop it, as long as he didn't cause any big damage, he didn't go back, thinking that a few months ago, he came to this world inexplicably, and it was almost the same as her current state.
"It's coming soon, you should hurry up."
Seeing that he was about to go to Chen Daosheng's residence, Chen Yien still had a playful attitude, I was afraid that Chen Daosheng, as his uncle, saw her like this, and he couldn't help but remind him.
"Okay." She answered, but still with that full, nonchalant feeling.
Hu Xiu shook his head, sighed, and didn't talk about her anymore, she wasn't a close relative, as long as she didn't break something, he wouldn't care about this kind of thing anymore.
"Bang Bang~" knocked on the wooden door, it was still the door opened by the little guy Tongmu, Hu Xiu also liked him very much, very cute, went up and touched his head, but he looked behind Hu Xiu, as if he saw something frightening, and hurriedly ran back to the house.
Hu Xiu didn't pay attention, so he followed in, Chen Daosheng had no job, but he was leisurely, sitting at the table, meticulously making tea there, quite a bit of an old pedant.
"I've seen His Royal Highness the Prince...", sensing the movement, he got up and bowed with his hand, but halfway through, he froze there, because he saw Chen Yien who was following Hu Xiu.
"Your Highness~ Why did you bring her here?"
Chen Daosheng was dumbfounded.
"She said that you are her uncle, I miss you, I think she is pitiful, so I brought someone over."
Hu Xiu couldn't figure it out, their relationship didn't seem to be so good.
"Hmph~ miss me? If you think I'm good, then find someone to marry earlier, don't come to me again, entertain me. Chen Daosheng had a cold face and was displeased.
Hu Xiu also saw this old man for the first time, with this expression, he was not used to seeing him change all the time, but he didn't expect that someone could make him so angry.
"I said Uncle Chen, do you want me to marry so much?" Chen Yien muttered.
"If you can be softer and wear more ladylike clothes, then no one will take a fancy to you.
Your father and mother left early, I arranged several family affairs for you, but you were all disturbed by yourself, you are now an old girl in your twenties, I see what you will do in the future. ”
Chen Daosheng was a little angry, but there was nothing he could do.
"Then I won't marry! Even if it's just me, I'll be able to live well. Chen Yien clenched his fists tightly, and his heart was not as calm as it seemed.
"Alas~ The lame man on our street died of his wife, and he really couldn't do it, so I went to find him. He has a simple temperament, and it is good for you to have a child in the future and live a safe life. ”
"I don't!" Chen Yien had tears in the corners of his eyes, asking her to marry a cripple who she didn't know and was married for the second time, how could she be willing.
"You really want to live alone for the rest of your life!?"
"Stop, stop~" Hu Xiu had to shout to stop, he couldn't stand this farce. He disagrees with the view that a woman can't live a lifetime without a man.
Women also have hands and feet, what can't they do? Just like Ying Jiu, she doesn't need a man, she can live a good life, well, the profession of killer, Hu Xiu does not advocate.
But Chen Yien is also a member of the Relic Pavilion, and he must have some abilities, and he can support himself alone.
Although it is important for people to conform to an era, just like the status of women in this era is not high, everyone subconsciously needs men in women, and this solid image has been engraved in the bones.
But this is going to ruin the happiness you need for a stereotypical image. The answer Hu Xiu chose was that you can live a good life regardless of the cold eyes of others, live in the world, and live well.
Hu Xiu handed the small book in his hand to Chen Daosheng, and walked out of the room, and Chen Yien also came out with him.
