Chapter 4: The Deadly Kitchen Knife
In the dead of night, hiding in the shadows outside the high wall, Su Yu felt that if there was no such thing as tacit understanding, it would not be cultivated in the later stage, just like a few of them, with different personalities and styles, except for doing business, they can be twisted into a rope at other times, but when it is their turn to do serious things, each idea is like a wheat seedling in the wasteland, uneven.
As far as the moment is concerned, Su Yu and Tang Zhe hid in the outer wall of the official office, waiting and waiting, until the moon above their heads reached the highest tip, and they did not wait for the arrival of the remaining few people.
Su Yu suddenly understood, over the wall and jumped into the courtyard to find out the news, only Tang Zhe and her agreed, at this time the scholar should have gone to the nearest hotel teahouse, with people from all walks of life, Da Kui should have gone to the city to inspect to see how many people and horses the other party was secretly hiding, as for Zhulin, Su Yu thought, the fat man should be in a comfortable straw pile with his own bottles and cans, just waiting for any of them to be injured, and then he will use his unique compassionate medical skills to carry out "meticulous" diagnosis and treatment for everyone.
Under normal circumstances, Su Yu and the others would not go to Zhulin if they had any headaches and brain fevers, even if they drank hot water and held it up, they would never take the medicine prescribed by Zhulin, because no one could say for sure which new medicine would become an experiment for him.
However, Su Yu and the others are glad that at least there is such a gentle and careful lovely person as the little junior sister Yiyi.
The night is getting thicker, Su Yu pulled the corner of Tang Zhe's clothes, Tang Zhe was silent, nodded, took a few steps back, and jumped onto the wall, Su Yu followed, and when he landed, he was like a leaf leaving a branch, stepping on a slight wind, leaving no trace.
Among them, only Tang Zhe's light skills are on par with Su Yu, but when it is used, Su Yu is light and small, so when going to the house to uncover tiles, climbing trees and picking fruits, Su Yu always has to be one step faster, which is also Su Yu's secret strength.
Entering the courtyard of the official office, Su Yu was secretly observing, and now the soldiers and horses are in chaos, and the people are not living, and in the official office separated by a wall, there are singing and dancing and the wine and meat are fragrant, and several teams of people dressed as guards are patrolling back and forth in the garden from time to time.
The delicate maid held a few pots of mellow wine, and hurriedly walked towards a place in the garden, while walking, she heard the mother-in-law behind her keep urging, "Dead girl, don't be fast, if you delay the interest of Gonggong Liu, you can't afford it." ”
When the maid heard this, she nodded in fright, and the steps under her feet were faster.
Taking advantage of the concealment of the night rockery, Su Yu raised his feet and quietly followed behind the maid.
Turning a corridor, the lights were bright in front of him, and the sound of silk and bamboo was leisurely in his ears, Su Yu glanced inside, turned over and got on the roof, and just stabilized, Tang Zhe followed closely and hurried over.
Going to the room to uncover the tiles, this is what Su Yu is good at, holding his breath and looking into the house, several dancing girls with graceful waists, in the somewhat cold night, wearing thin gauze clothes, twisting their bodies to their heart's content.
A person in an official uniform bowed his head, picked up a wine jug, respectfully poured wine for the person in the seat, and then looked at the person who was sitting, dressed in a dark red brocade robe, with a belt inlaid with gold and jade on his waist, the gauze hat on his head somewhat concealed his face, with an orchid little finger in his hand, shaking the wine in the cup, as soon as he opened his mouth, his voice was not yin or yang, and he said to the guards on the side: "Guard Feng, look at which day, is it a good day?" ”
The guards on the side stepped forward, clasped their fists and saluted, and said, "Back to my father-in-law, tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, and it is a great day." ”
"Okay." The eunuch drank all the wine in the cup, clapped his hands and said, "The Mid-Autumn Festival is indeed a good day to suppress bandits. ”
Hearing this, Su Yu sighed in her heart, in fact, the eunuch and the guard who spoke were also "old acquaintances" with her, because it was this Feng guard who robbed on the official road that day and did it with Da Kui, and the eunuch's voice, Su Yu was also sure that it was the person sitting in the sedan chair that day.
As for what they said about suppressing bandits, Su Yu couldn't help but worry in his heart, now the eunuchs of the imperial court are interfering in politics, and the people led by Liang Gonggong of the eunuch mansion have killed innocent people in many villages through the rhetoric of suppressing bandits, and all the looted people's fat and ointment have fallen into the hands of those corrupt officials and thieves.
Now that they have come to Bian An, they want to suppress bandits, a bandit who makes a presumptuous conclusion, and I don't know how many villages will suffer.
Observing carefully, I only heard the Feng guard say again: "On the Qingyun Ridge, I'm afraid we have to send more people, and the few hairy boys who robbed us that day seem to have some ability." ”
The eunuch surnamed Liu pinched his sharp tone, squeezed out a few laughs from his nose, and said: "This Qingyunling, it seems that there is still some meaning, I don't think I can wait for tomorrow, it is better to send someone to pay the Qingyunling tonight, if there is oil and water, tomorrow will have a happy holiday." ”
"Yes." When the Feng guards heard this, they received the order neatly, and strode down.
Su Yu and Tang Zhe on the roof glanced at each other, their palms were sweaty, and after thinking for a moment, they still glanced at Tang Zhe, and the two turned around and jumped off the roof.
Stopping in a corner, Tang Zhe was in a hurry, pulled Su Yu's sleeve and said, "Boss, what should we do now, let's hurry back to the village and report to my father and uncle." ”
Su Yu took a deep breath and shook his head, "They are all elite soldiers and horses, and they must run faster than us, and when we arrive first, I am afraid that they will soon surround the village, and when the time comes, we will not be their opponents." ”
"What then?" When Tang Zhe heard this, he immediately panicked, "Do you just ignore it and wait for the people in the village to be killed?" ”
As soon as the words fell, the guard surnamed Feng must have recruited people and rumbled out of the mansion, Su Yu knew that this must be just the tip of the iceberg, and more people were still waiting elsewhere.
"You can't sit still." Su Yu said categorically: "Before the people and horses have left the city, you go to find Da Kui, he is strong, let him rob a horse, hurry back to report the news, and then you and Zhulin follow the scholar, if there is an accident, listen to the scholar's command." “
Tang Zhe nodded, and then asked, "What about you?" Didn't you say that they were good soldiers and couldn't outrun them? ”
Su Yu looked back, and there was the kitchen of the mansion behind him, and said firmly: "Although one person's strength is weak, he also has to do something to help Da Kui delay some time." With that, he went in the direction of the kitchen.
Tang Zhe didn't know why, but he knew in his heart that there was nothing wrong with listening to the boss's idea, so he glanced back at Su Yu, jumped out of the courtyard wall and left.
The eunuch Liu Chong was drinking wine and watching the song and dance in the house, and when he was in a beautiful and intoxicated mood, a big hole opened in the roof, and then a sharpened big knife fell from the sky, with a piercing posture, only to go to Liu Chong's head!
Liu Chong suddenly screamed in fright, couldn't dodge, stretched out his arm to block, but was cut off by the kitchen knife with internal force, cut off half of his head, and died on the spot.
The finches in the room were silent for a moment, and the screams became chaotic for a moment.
Su Yu, who was on the roof, saw the current situation, and secretly said that it was bad, I thought it would take some work, but I didn't know that this dead eunuch would die too quickly.
