Chapter 4: Night Discussion I

After making up his mind, Wang Shouye immediately closed the window and tiptoed out.

When I got out of the courtyard gate in the dark, I found that the Wang family was located at the entrance of a north-south alley - no wonder the three aunts and six wives before were all gathered outside the Wang family's door to gossip.

Turning left for more than 20 steps, and coming to the black lacquered gate of Li Xiucai's house, Wang Shouye took a deep breath and was about to step forward and knock on the door.

But at this moment, a hand suddenly stretched out in the darkness, and a vice grabbed his wrist like a vice, followed by a scolding:

"Mo Hu come!"

But it turned out that Wang Bricklayer had been secretly behind him, and when he saw that he was going to knock on the door next door, he hurriedly stepped forward to stop him.

Wang Shouye heard that it was him, and hurriedly withdrew the fist that he had almost smashed, and said in surprise: "The [d] ...... Why did your old man get here? ”

This 'dad' is still difficult to say.

But the old man didn't answer, and dragged him back.

Wang Shouye was anxious to find out Li Xiucai's current situation, so he was naturally unwilling to make a mistake, and while struggling, he said: "Why are you pulling me?" I want to see Lee so-jae ...... now."

"Can't go!"

Wang Bricklayer interrupted him categorically, and scolded sharply: "With the Zhao family here, can you do it?" Hurry, hurry up and go home with Daddy! ”

He did this, apparently because he was worried that his son would be entangled by evil again.

And Wang Shouye was moved, but he was also full of helplessness.

If it weren't for the monster in his body, who had been disturbing people's hearts, he wouldn't have bothered to wade into this troubled water.

Seeing that the old man was unrelenting and desperately pulling back, Wang Shouye had no choice but to explain half-truthfully: "Do you want to listen to me first?" Just now I had a nightmare that I dreamed ......"

Bang dang~

I don't want to be at this moment, the black lacquer door of Li Xiucai's house suddenly opened left and right, and a fat man with a leopard head and eyes jumped out with a thick-backed ghost head knife, and roared like a thunderbolt: "What are you doing?" Stop moving! ”

Before the words fell, two burly figures rushed out, each carrying a weapon, humming like a second general to protect the big man.

Faced with this murderous posture, the father and son of the Wang family couldn't help but be stunned on the spot.

In the end, Wang Shouye reacted faster, and said with an embarrassed smile: "Don't misunderstand, three big brothers, let's ...... We're at the wrong door, we're at the wrong door! ”

Syllable~

Before the words fell, Wang Bricklayer suddenly slapped him on the back of the head, and then leaned his shoulders and flatteringly stepped forward and said: "Don't be surprised by Zhao Bantou, my family has been confused since I woke up, and I can't remember anything." ”

Zhao Bantou?

Isn't that the Lao Tzu of 'Zhao Ji'?

It turned out that he was also in the Li family.

Knowing that he had made a joke, when Wang Shouye was feeling embarrassed, Zhao Bantou on the opposite side had already recognized the Wang family's father and son.

At that moment, he poked the thick-backed ghost head knife to the ground, and scolded in his mouth: "It turned out to be Wang Bricklayer, special mother, I scared Lao Tzu just now!" It's so late, you two ......"

Halfway through the conversation, his two bull-eyed thieves turned around, and suddenly changed his words: "Since you have come, let's go in and talk." ”

"No, no, no!"

Wang Bricklayer immediately shook his hand like a rattle: "This big night, don't bother, don't bother!" ”

As he spoke, he pouted his ass and pushed it back.

And Wang Shouye also had the idea of going at this time - it was not a problem to deal with a yellow-haired girl alone, but Zhao Bantou and these two officials were not in his plan.

Let's go back and think about it for the long haul.

Thinking like this, he also borrowed the slope to get off the donkey, and followed the old man's strength to take a few steps back.

"Stop!"

However, when Zhao Bantou saw this, he immediately let out a broken cry: "Didn't you hear Lao Tzu let you in?!" ”

At the same time, the ghost head knife in his hand was also raised slightly again, as if intentionally or unintentionally aimed at the bricklayer Wang.

Wang Bricklayer's body stiffened, and he swallowed saliva tremblingly, and his waist was already rickety, but even so, he still stood in front of his son, and smiled servilely: "Master Zhao, my family sent Li Xianggong to Beijing to take the exam, but he bumped into that dirty thing, and it was not easy to wake up, do you see if it is ......?"

"What is it?!"

Zhao Bantou waved the ghost head knife impatiently: "Lao Tzu speaks, it's not good for you to do it, right?" ”

When the two attendants on the left and right heard this, they also raised the iron ruler high, and shouted in their mouths:

"You old thing, don't you toast and don't eat, you want to eat and drink?!"

"It's the other way around, and you dare to talk back to our five masters!"

As the saying goes, 'break the county order, destroy the door order Yin', the ancients' fear of the government is far from being comparable to later generations.

In the face of such intimidation, if it weren't for his back to his son, Wang Bricklayer would almost be paralyzed on the ground.

But even if his tongue couldn't be straightened, he still tried his best to say: "Zhao Bantou, Zhao Ye, you have a lot of adults, it doesn't hurt for the little old man to go in, my family will keep the business...... Just be free. ”

Swish~

In response to him, it was a sudden slashing of the ghost head knife!

"Be careful!"

Although he judged that this knife could not hurt Wang Bricklayer, Wang Shouye still hurriedly pulled the old man behind him, faced the ghost head knife hanging in front of him, and said with a smile: "Zhao Banfa said, how dare we not listen?" Besides, we wanted to visit Lee Sang-ko. ”

Zhao Bantou stared at him up and down for a while, then he snorted coldly and withdrew the ghost head knife, turned his fat body sideways, and motioned for the father and son to enter.

Wang Shouye sighed secretly, but he didn't rush into the door, but looked back to see the condition of Wang Bricklayer.

I saw that the old man's forehead was sweating like rain, and his body was even more shaking, as if he was sifting chaff, obviously scared enough by Fang Cai's knife.

But only in this way does it seem that the calf is licking deeply.

"Daddy."

This time, there was not even a stumble, Wang Shouye called out the unspeakable title: "If you don't go back to rest first, I'll ...... go in by myself."

"No!"

Wang Bricklayer shook his head resolutely: "Let's go together!" ”

Although he said it categorically, when he stepped forward, his feet were soft and he couldn't exert his strength.

Wang Shouye hurriedly supported him, and the father and son snuggled into the Li family.

The courtyard of the Li family is slightly larger than that of the Wang family, but it is obviously not as neat as the Wang family.

The courtyard was empty, only a few bushes of flowers and plants were planted under the porch.

There was a carriage parked at the base of the west wall, but there was no stable in the courtyard.

By the way, the Wang family seems to have a stable, but they haven't seen a carriage......

After all, there was someone next to him, Wang Shouye looked at it casually, and then helped the old man to go straight to the hall.

Seeing the door, Wang Shouye was waiting to push the door behind him, but the bricklayer Wang grabbed him away and rushed in first.

He obviously still wants to protect his son from disaster.

Wang Shouye was stunned for a moment behind him, and for the first time in his heart, he felt guilty about crossing the seizure.

"What's wrong?"

It wasn't until Zhao Bantou's shouting and questioning came from behind him that he realized that this was not the time to be sad, so he hurriedly replied vaguely: "It's nothing." ”

Then he walked briskly into the inner hall.

When I entered the door, I smelled the scent of sandalwood first.

Looking further in, I saw that 'Zhao Jijiao' was sitting at the head of the bed, letting the candle flame reflect the sultry silhouette of half the wall.

Zhao Bantou came in after him, Wang Shouye naturally didn't dare to stare at her carefully, and hurriedly deviated his gaze slightly, shifting his attention to the bed.

I saw a man with a yellow face and thin muscles, lying on it with his eyes closed, just looking at the fine lines on his forehead, he said that he was in his forties, and no one would suspect it.

This is Lee so-jae?!

What about being young and promising?

After thinking about it again, Wang Shouye secretly shouted again, 'It's dangerous'.

Since Li Xiucai is recognized as young and promising, it is naturally impossible for him to be old and not confused.

Most of the problem lies with the monster!

Fortunately, I am fortunate that I still have a protective film, otherwise I am afraid that I will follow in his footsteps.

"Huh?"

At this time, I saw Zhao Bantou coming to the bed in some surprise, carefully checking Li Xiucai's condition, and asking, "When did my uncle stop?" ”

Hearing his father's question, Zhao Hongyu, who had been looking at her lover, turned around, but was just about to answer, but she saw Wang Shouye's father and son again.

At that moment, her pair of apricot eyes were fixed on Wang Shouye, and there was suspicion and hostility in her eyes, and there were also some expectations hidden.

Zhao Bantou saw that his daughter's face was different, and he glanced at Wang Shouye with Zhao Hongyu's gaze, but he didn't see anything strange, so he frowned and said, "Dad asked you." ”

Zhao Hongyu realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly replied: "Not long after you went out, Li Xianggong slept peacefully, but ...... Just ......"

She looked back at Li Xiucai's aging face, and couldn't help but feel a little sad in her voice.

When Wang Shouye heard this, he realized that the monster in his body had disappeared, as if it had never existed.

He felt a little relieved, but he regretted coming to the door even more.

At this time, Zhao Bantou pulled over the Zhang square stool, sat down with a golden knife, and asked in a loud voice: "Wang boy, why did my son-in-law never wake up, but you woke up?" What the hell is going on, you make it clear to Lao Tzu! ”

After a pause, he added: "Also, what did you come to the door in the middle of the night for?!" ”

In the end, it was already very loud.

Wang Shouye organized his words, and was about to prevaricate these questions, when Wang Bricklayer next to him had already preemptively said: "Master Zhao, he was confused when he woke up, and he didn't even recognize people, how do you ......know?"

"I didn't ask you!"

Zhao Bantou scolded impatiently, his eyes locked on Wang Shouye, and said in a deep voice: "Tell the truth - if there is half a lie, I recognize you, but the knife in Lao Tzu's hand does not recognize!" ”

As he spoke, he slapped the thick-backed ghost-headed knife on the table again.

Wang Shouye would not be frightened by him, handed the old man a relieved look, and bowed slightly in the appearance of the old man: "In front of Zhao Bantou, I naturally don't dare to talk nonsense - but just like my father said, when I woke up in a daze, my mind was empty, and I didn't remember anything." ”

"As for coming to Li Xianggong's house in the middle of the night, it was because I heard that there was a lot of trouble here, and I was afraid that the little lady would not be able to take care of it alone, so I thought about coming over to take a look."

Speaking of this, he spread his hands: "If I had known that Zhao Bantou was also here, I wouldn't have come to this troubled water." ”

After hearing these words, Zhao Bantou became more and more colorless, and the color of the corners of his eyes and eyebrows went straight out.

He reached out and grabbed the hilt of the Devil's Head Knife, and asked again in a deep voice, "I really can't remember anything?" ”

This time, before Wang Shouye could speak, Zhao Hongyu next to him rushed to say: "Dad, you just tell me what happened that day again and see if he can remember something." ”

Listening to this little girl take the initiative to help, Wang Shouye guessed that she was mostly hoping that she, a 'lonely ghost', could find out the reason why Li Xiucai was unconscious.

That's not really a good thing.

Because once she can't provide any help, this little girl may turn her face at any time.

Mistakes, mistakes!

If you accidentally find a flaw for a while, it will be difficult to go back and make up for it.

Unless the moon is dark and the wind is high......

Wang Shouye looked at Zhao Bantou, who looked like Sai Li Kui, and the two generals beside him, and immediately dispelled this unrealistic idea.

Let's hear the whole story first.
