The moon is cold and the cold spring does not flow, and the song returns to the boat.

In the west wind, the lake is full of autumn.

The beauty of Qiantang Lake is different from the shallowness of the customs, but the style brewed in the bones, standing on the lakeside, looking at the Songpai Mountain up close, overlooking the moon in the distance, the breeze is coming, gentle like water, people can't help but linger.

"I don't know if Bao Xi can hold Xi Yuanda ......"

Xu You folded the willow branch, held it in his hand and played with it gently, staring at the courtyard on the other side of the lake, and said: "Xi Yuanda is not stupid, we delayed for a while in the boat pavilion, and then asked Liu Mingyi to encourage the people to go to the county government to avenge their grievances, and there was an interval of almost two hours, which was enough for him to arrange properly and destroy all the corpses." Bao Xi is also an old fox, if he doesn't see a rabbit, he won't scatter an eagle, and if he is not sure, he will definitely not take people, and it is estimated that this trip will be in vain. ”

Zhan Wenjun actually had concerns about this, looked at Xu You's side face, and wondered: "Since Lang Jun knew this, why did he take this move?" ”

"Xi Yuanda is impatient and violent, what we have to do is to force him to lose his mind a little bit, and then in a panic, he will reveal a fatal flaw. Bao Xi seems to be useless, but he can force Xi Yuanda to a desperate situation, not fight back, sit still, and be in a panic; If you fight back, you don't know what to do and what the depth is, so you can only find a way to ask Linwushan for help......"

Zhan Wenjun was shocked: "So you let Ziyu stay outside the Zhibin Building, just to prevent Xi Yuanda from escaping from Qiantang?" ”

"Yes, either tonight or tomorrow morning, Xi Yuanda will definitely find a way to leave, as long as Zhu Rui stops him, he can force him to continue to make mistakes......" Xu You's eyes were cold, and he said: "Heavenly Master Taoism has a great cause, and there is no good way to deal with them except to take steps and look for opportunities." ”

Zhan Wenjun was deeply impressed and said: "Lang Jun acts like a game, it is really unpredictable!" ”

Xu You shook his head and said: "It is helpless to use a weak strategy. If I really have a choice, I'd rather rush into the Zhibin Building now and take Xi Yuanda's head for my wife! ”

Zhan Wenjun's beautiful eyes were as bright as autumn water, and he swirled around Xu You's face, and then turned his head away, not knowing what to think, but the skin at the root of his ears was clearly visible red. Xu You regretted it as soon as he spoke, after the ** touch a few days ago, Zhan Wenjun avoided him for three days before resuming normal communication, which would be quick for a while, and put the two of them in an embarrassing situation, what a bother.

Just thinking about how to ease the atmosphere, Wan Qi flew over and said, "Bao Xi left from Zhibin Building with his guards, and he didn't see Xi Yuanda!" ”

Zhan Wenjun coughed lightly, turned around, his expression was not unusual, and said, "Lang Jun is really like a god!" ”

Xu You didn't answer, walked along the edge of the lake for more than ten meters, probed the depth of the water with willow branches, and drew a long line along the soil on the shore, falling into deep thought.

Bao Xi returned to the county office empty-handed, and Gu Yun asked, "What about the criminals?" ”

"No arrests!"

"Huh? Did you find something suspicious, Xi Yuanda is not the culprit? ”

"Not really!" Bao Xi said in a deep voice: "Xi Yuanda should have nothing to do with the case of the two traders and Liu Mingyi's extortion!" Or to be sure, he is the culprit in this case! ”

Gu Yun frowned and said, "Since Mr. has identified the culprit, why didn't you bring him back for interrogation?" ”

"The captured traders have died, there are no bones, and Liu Mingyi said that there is no evidence, and Xi Yuanda cannot be convicted." Bao Xi persuaded: "Ming Mansion, it's not easy to deal with Xi Yuanda, it's Du Jingzhi standing behind him, you have to think twice!" ”

"Sir, I know what you're thinking. Don't forget, the whole world is not the king's land, the coast of the land is not the king's minister, Du Jingzhi, Xi Yuanda, as long as I don't commit crimes under my rule, I won't provoke them, but now it's two ......lives."

Gu Yun got up slowly, his long and straight figure, as beautiful as a woman's face, all disappeared at this moment, only a word filled the heavens and the earth, and said: "Two lives!" In broad daylight, everyone saw that they dared to plunder people in front, kill people in the back, and plunder people again after killing people, simply regard the laws of the court as child's play, like such a fatherless and kingless person, not to mention a mere disaster elimination spirit official, even if Sun Guan is here in person, I will also ask him for guilt! ”

"Feiqing!"

This is the first time Bao Xi called him after going to Qiantang to assist Gu Yun, then lifted his robe, knelt down slowly, and said sincerely: "Xi Yuanda naturally wants to take it, but how to take him, I hope you don't be impatient, and I will make plans after I see someone!" ”

"See who?"

"An old friend." Bao Xi's gaze passed through the mountains and fell on the top of Mingyu Mountain in the distance, and said, "I want to know, what is he going to do!" ”

Mingyu Mountain is less lively on weekdays, and most of the trilogy is sent out, leaving only some elites on duty everywhere in the village. When Bao Xi arrived at the foot of the mountain, he was stopped by the guards patrolling the mountain, and the sign was displayed, and someone recognized the Qiantang master bookkeeper and immediately went to the mountain to make a report. Ten books, who received the news, ignored their leg injuries and sat in four people to greet them on the mountainside. It stands to reason that Bao Xi is a small Qiantang master book, and the ten books are arrogant, and he won't even look at it, but now is different from the past, Guo's ups and downs, and it is very important to get the help of the county government. Bao Xi is Gu Yun's confidant, this is a well-known thing, so you can't be offended!

Bao Xi expressed his intention, which surprised Shishu, but he didn't say anything, and ordered someone to send him to see He Wei. He Wei seemed to have expected that Bao Xi would visit the mountain, and waited for warm wine in the room, and said with a smile: "Danya, the night in the mountain is cold, come and drink a glass of wine to warm up!" ”

Bao Xi was taken away by him, and his heart couldn't help but stagnate. Although he knew that this was He Wei's means of playing, his willingness to ask for guilt was weakened, so he sat down opposite, picked up the wine and smelled it, and praised: "Good wine!" ”

"Slush is amazing, Guo Da's favorite, naturally it couldn't be better!"

"It is said that I have been to Qiantang for many days, but I have never had the opportunity to taste this fine wine, and today I am blessed by his wings!"

"Knowing that Danya is good for wine, I specially cheekily asked Zhan Wenjun for a few buckets of slush wine, which is enough for you and me to drink happily, and if you don't get drunk, you won't return!"

Bao Xi leaned closer to the wine glass and sniffed it, his face was full of greed, but he still put the wine glass down, sighed, and said: "My family's Ming Mansion has stepped into the swamp, although I intend to catch up with Wen Chang, but I am restless, and it is really difficult to have fun." He Wei was pseudonym Wu Fei back then, with a long character and writing, and was a subordinate in the Jiangzhou Assassin Mansion, so Bao Xi deliberately mentioned the old name, firstly, to recount the old feelings, and secondly, it also meant to threaten.

"Oh?" He Wei said lightly: "With Brother Danya's intelligence, what can make you so embarrassed? Let's talk about it, maybe I can plan a thing or two for you. Also, my current name is He Wei, the word is its wings, Brother Danya, don't call it wrong! ”

Bao Xi and He Wei had a lot of friends when they were in Jiangzhou, so they are also few people in the world who know him, knowing that this person is radical, and he may be killed if he doesn't agree, listening to his words implied alienation and defense, he didn't dare to be careless, considered his sentence, and said: "Today, a group of ordinary people in front of the county yamen gathered to make trouble, crying and shaking the sky, and its wings can know the details?" ”

"Troublemaker?" He Wei's eyelids drooped, and he said: "Two people died unexpectedly, one escaped under the knife, the county government is a place for the people to serve, gather and cry, it should be, what is trouble?" ”

"Its wings really know!"

Bao Xi looked at He Wei, didn't give an inch, and said: "If you have a grievance, you can redress your grievances, you can have a form, and you can beat the drum." After the Ming government has passed the collective questioning, inspection, and legal theory, it will judge the facts of the case in fact, and if there is anything inappropriate, it is not too late to cry out for grievances. I am afraid that the foolish people will be ignorant and manipulated by others in order to fulfill some ulterior selfish desires. Do they still think that such acts belong to them? ”

"Danya Likou, I've never been too late."

He Wei can still speak seven points of human language, if he really wants to argue, ten Bao Xi is not his opponent, but this time he wants to borrow Gu Yun's power, and he is too lazy to fight-for-tat, so he smiled and said: "According to what you said, the common people are making trouble, but is it true that there are three dead and injured people?" If this is true, why did you come to the mountains to find me instead of arresting the murderer? ”

"It's easy to say! Xi Yuanda is Du Jingzhi's moth son, and after arresting Xi Yuanda, how can Du Jingzhi appease him? Please teach me its wings! ”

He Wei raised his wine glass and said, "After drinking this glass, I'll tell you how to appease Du Jingzhi!" ”

Bao Xi was a drinker, refused once, and it was difficult to refuse the second time, so he took a sip of the wine glass first, and then drank it all, saying: "Good, good, good!" ”

The three good words were still there, He Wei handed over another glass, Bao Xi took it and drank it all again, and so on, in the blink of an eye, the two pots of slush wine on the desk were empty.

Bao Xi's wine was under his stomach, his breath was churning, but his eyes became brighter and brighter, and he said, "Qiyi, you say, what should Du Jingzhi do?" ”

He Wei sat up straight, folded his hands between his chest and abdomen, his eyes suddenly bloomed with a dazzling brilliance, and said, "I can clearly tell Danya that it is impossible for Xi Yuanda to leave Qiantang City alive this time. If Du Jingzhi is still on the throne of Yangzhou Sacrificial Wine, sooner or later he will have to settle accounts with Gu Yun, and if he fights a snake and does not die, he will suffer from it, since this is the case, it is better to strike with us first! ”

Bao Xi's body shook and said, "What do you want to do?" ”

"Xi Yuanda is dead, and Yangzhou may as well change to another person to do it!"

Bao Xi was stunned on the spot, his right hand trembled and pointed at He Wei, and said, "Is this what Xu You meant, or what you mean?" ”

He Wei clasped his hands into his sleeves and said, "Who does it mean, does it matter?" ”

Bao Xi was speechless and couldn't say a word for a long time.

Qiantang Lakeside.

Xu You threw away the willow branches, marked the ground with stones, and said, "Choose this place, and order people tonight to avoid the eyes and ears of the night patrol, and quietly dig out the snake's nest here." Remember to look like you have been growing up for years, and the specific details are in charge of the predator invited by Baling, so you must be foolproof. ”

Zhan Wenjun looked at the ground, he really couldn't see any mystery, and asked, "Lang Jun, there are so many places by Qiantang Lake, why did you choose here?" ”

"This place is moderately dry and damp, about twenty or thirty zhang away from the courtyard opposite, not too far, not too close, convenient for its wings, to lead the white snake there. In addition, from here, there are many wooded houses along the way, so that he can hide his figure and avoid the attention of everyone. ”

Zhan Wenjun was still worried, and said: "He Langjun said that he can make the White Snake act according to orders, this is almost a joke, if it weren't for Lang Jun's repeated efforts, I would never believe it." Otherwise, how about we find another solution? ”

Although Xu You didn't know what way He Wei could make the White Snake obey the order, he also knew that there were many secret techniques in the four phases of the Yin Fu that were not accessible to outsiders, and since he dared to say such a thing, he must be 100% sure. And in my previous life, I had seen a snake charmer use the sound of a flute to make the snake dance to the music, pointing east and west, and the order must be followed.

"Well, in order to avoid Madame's doubts, we can arrange for two other people to dive in the lake, and if their wings fail to cast a spell, they will secretly drive the snake into the water, and then they will take the snake to the other courtyard and release it ashore."

"Does the White Snake know water?"

There are many snakes that can swim, but there are even more snakes that can't swim, Xu You has always followed the principle of not being ashamed to ask, nodded and said: "Don't worry, I have asked the snake catcher, the white snake is called the snout, and there is no problem with entering the water." The key is to find two good water people......"

The white snake was found by Guo Mian at an altitude of seven or eight hundred meters above sea level in the mountains, and it should belong to the mutation of the sharp-nosed pit viper, and there is also a name called the valley bug. This kind of snake from the beginning of the heavy snow to the sting between the three months for hibernation, the short one meter, the long more than three meters, the head is large and triangular, the tail end has scales, the appearance is very majestic. He likes to live in the shade under the mountain streams and trees, likes to be dry in spring and winter, and likes water in summer and autumn, and now he still has the spirit to cooperate with Xu You's performance, so as not to turn a blind eye lazily.

"Those who are good at water are easy to find, and there are many people in Guo's trilogy who are good at water, but no matter how good they are, I am afraid they can't hold their breath in the water for too long......"

Xu You remembered the proud water dragon on the waist of the mountain sect, and said with a smile: "It's okay, find a skillful craftsman to go up the mountain tonight and let him make two gadgets." ”

After nightfall, Qiantang City gradually fell silent under the drums of the curfew, and it was pitch black in the guest building, Xi Yuanda cleaned up, dressed in black, pushed open the window, and looked at the moonlight in the sky.

The moon is bright in the sky, and the ground is as bright as day!

If you want to get out of the city, tonight is not a good time, but Xi Yuanda believes that he has a deep cultivation, and he doesn't take the night guard in his eyes, so he jumped a few times and came to the wall.

He had planned to leave early tomorrow morning, but as night fell, his heart fluctuated, and the scenes of the day came to mind, and the more he thought about it, the more apprehensive he felt. The sudden huge criticism in the market, a man and a woman who appeared when they were arrested, and then Bao Xi openly brought people to the door to ask them, if it wasn't for the arrangements made in advance, I'm afraid I would have to stay in the prison of the Qiantang County Ya now. All this is like an invisible net, enclosing the heavens and the earth tightly, making him breathless.

Let's go, let's go tonight!

Xi Yuanda didn't know that he was already a dead man in other people's mouths, his toes lightly touched the wall, his body rose into the air, and when he came to the highest place, he suddenly heard a human voice that frightened him: "Xi Yuanda, where are you going!" ”
