Chapter 61: "Cousin"

(Ask for collection and recommendation)

"The Emperor's fire, the death of heaven and earth." After Hu Guiyang finished speaking, he waited silently.

He Wu madman muttered, Hu Guiyang couldn't hear clearly, so he had to take two steps forward, and vaguely heard the words "sky card" and "earth card", it turned out that He Wu madman was still gambling money in his dream.

"The Emperor's fire, the death of heaven and earth." Hu Guiyang raised his voice slightly.

He Wu Madman stopped muttering, even his breathing slowed down, and after a while, he said a few words, the words were clear, completely different from the dream words, but Hu Guiyang couldn't understand it at all.

"What?"

He Wu Maniac memorized it by himself, not so much a mantra as a collection of strange sounds, and in the middle of all kinds of strange vocalizations, there were also various small actions such as percussion, tongue smacking, throat movement, belly bulging, and deep inhalation.

Only then did Hu Guiyang understand why Third Sister He asked him to only learn ten sentences at a time, according to He Wu's madman's practice, he couldn't even break sentences, let alone recite strange sounds, and then cooperate with those strange movements.

When Hu Guiyang followed his father-in-law to capture the demon thief, he had seen a lot of so-called cultivation methods, and he had a little understanding of actions such as tooth knocking, otherwise he would not have been able to learn at all.

The Vulcan recipe is very similar to those methods, only more complicated and obscure, the usual method is to recite a scripture, the content is completely understandable, and then knock the teeth and smack the tongue a few times, unlike the fire god formula, the words are strange and meaningless.

Third Sister He said it easily, but in fact, she assigned an extremely difficult task.

If in the past, Hu Guiyang would never suffer like this, and would rather sleep well, but he had just promised that he would never be lazy, and he really had no reason to be lazy, the enemy master was like a cloud, and he was not an opponent if he sent someone at will, and he couldn't escape by accident every time.

He Wu's madman's recitation weakened.

"The Emperor's fire, the death of heaven and earth." Hu Guiyang read it again.

He Wu Maniac started again, Hu Guiyang concentrated his attention, and only learned the first two or three pronunciations, thinking that everything is difficult at the beginning, since He Sanjie can learn it in this way, she can too.

"The Emperor's fire, the death of heaven and earth."

Whenever the voice weakened, Hu Guiyang redirected, He Wu was not tired, he read casually, and he didn't wake up, and he seemed to sleep more steadily.

Time flies, Hu Guiyang has not yet understood the trick, the sky outside is about to dawn, the morning light shines through the doors and windows, He Wu madman stretches his waist, as if he is about to wake up.

Hu Guiyang hurriedly returned to his bed, only to feel that his mouth was dry, his cheeks were numb, his mind was groggy, and he secretly sighed that there was no magic skill that was easy to practice, and it was so difficult.

"I hope the He sisters and brothers didn't lie to me." Hu Guiyang thought, and fell asleep in the blink of an eye.

He dreamed of the Sacrifice God Peak again, but he didn't see the new content, it was still those scenes, especially the fierce and vicious face of King Wentian, getting bigger and closer, and finally even sticking out his tongue to lick it, Hu Guiyang couldn't avoid it......

He woke up suddenly, and found that there was indeed a tongue licking himself, not the long-dead Wen Tianwang, but the living Yellow Dog Flatbread.

The flatbread is a wild dog that slept outside last night, and it didn't bark when someone came, but during the day it got into the house and licked it all over the owner's face.

Hu Guiyang had no choice but to get up, push away the big cake, and yawn big, the sun had not risen too high outside, and he had only slept for about an hour, dizzy and swollen, and his bones were stiff.

The flatbread stuck out its tongue and circled in front of him.

"Go, there's nothing to eat." Hu Guiyang stood up, there was no one in the room, and when he looked up, Third Sister He didn't know if she was there.

The flatbread flew out, and came back after a while, holding a bone in his mouth, and put it in front of Hu Guiyang.

"You're not a monster, are you? They can understand me. Hu Guiyang bent down and touched the dog's head twice, "Eat it yourself." ”

The flatbread ran under the table with a bone in his mouth.

Outside the building, Hu Guiyang saw He Wu Maniac, he was practicing boxing in a small open space, although the moves were not complicated, but they were tiger and tiger.

"Morning." Hu Guiyang greeted him.

He Wu Maniac retracted his momentum and was full of energy, "I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep in another place, but I didn't expect that when I slept until dawn, my mouth was a little dry." By the way, what's for breakfast? ”

"No one delivered breakfast?"

"No, I don't know where to get a few bones of meat."

Hu Guiyang walked out of the garden and went to the front yard to find the old bustard, "Didn't you say that you would provide three meals a day?" So far, I haven't even sent a basin of face water. ”

The old bustard greeted him with a smile, "Alas, why did Yang Gongzi come in person?" These dead girls are as lazy and gluttonous, but they don't know how to do things, so I will send someone to deliver water and food immediately. ”

The old bustard's promise was really effective, and it didn't take long for the two maids to bring water and food, and as soon as they entered the building, they looked around, and one said: "Yang Gongzi got up so early, why don't you let the servants serve?" ”

"Those two bad servants, one is disobedient, and the other is even more ridiculous, not to say that there is a banshee here, who came to trick him into opening the door last night, but fortunately he was not fooled, you say it's not ridiculous?"

The two girls smiled, didn't dare to ask more, and hurriedly said goodbye.

He Wu madman had been instructed to hide as much as possible when outsiders came, and then asked from the back of the stairs, "Is there really a banshee?" ”

"Don't worry, there are really banshees, and it's not you who harms them."

"Then I'll be relieved." He Wu didn't wash his face either, and went straight to the food.

"Send one to your sister first, and water."

He Wu was very obedient, carrying a bucket in one hand and a food plate in the other, and nodded, "It's okay, I know that thinking about my sister, my impression of you is a little better." ”

Hu Guiyang finished washing, ate two mouthfuls of food and left, and came to the front yard to see the bustard.

The old bustard apologized, Hu Guiyang said he didn't care, and then took out a piece of silver and put it on the table, there were twenty taels, the old bustard's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached out to hold it, and then retracted it into his sleeve, and the gecko didn't eat mosquitoes so quickly.

"Sure enough, he is the son of a rich and noble family, and the adults don't remember the villain, and they give so much reward."

"Do you know why I rent your house and don't meet Ren Liu'er?"

"The son escaped from home and didn't want to see anyone, the old man understands."

"Not only that, but in fact, ......" Hu Guiyang wanted to say and stopped.

The old bustard took the money, and he just wanted to stutter, "Childe but it doesn't hurt to say, the old body is a cheerful person, if you can do it, you can say that you can do it, and if you can't do it, you will never pretend to take care of things." ”

Hu Guiyang smiled: "With your words, I'll tell the truth." I was forced to run away from home because I offended my father, but the father and son were still in love and wanted to go home again. ”

"Of course."

"But my father is a very difficult man to speak......

"Oh, I understand, Ling Zun must also be a romantic figure, and the son wants to borrow flowers to offer Buddha and let my daughter intercede for you."

"Phew, how can a son do such a thing for Lao Tzu in this world?"

The old bustard laughed, "It's not for nothing...... Childe continued. ”

"I have a cousin who is very much valued by my father, and I asked him to intercede, and this cousin once mentioned Miss Duer to me, saying that he had admired her for a long time, but he never had the opportunity to see him."

The old bustard suddenly realized, "Don't say it, I understand, Yang Gongzi go find his cousin, as long as you can invite it, there is no man who my daughter is not convinced." ”

Hu Guiyang clenched his fists and smiled: "You saved me, okay, I'll go and ask someone." ”

The old bustard got up and sent him off, "However, the ugly words are ahead, the three hundred taels that Yang Gongzi gave before was just a month's house money." ”

Hu Guiyang took out another ingot of silver, "After the deed is completed, there will be heavy thanks." ”

The old bustard smiled, sent the guests away, and immediately went to Ren Liu'er to explain the ins and outs, and the family was down-to-earth, and no longer thought that the guests were too eccentric.

Hu Guiyang reassured the old bustard, he was indeed looking for a "cousin", Wang Zhi was recruited back to the palace, the old eunuch Yun Dan could not be trusted, this road was temporarily blocked, Hu Guiyang could only win support from Yuan Bin first, and it was not feasible to go directly to the former military governor's mansion or Yuan's mansion, so he had to wait for someone halfway.

It was nearly noon, there were few pedestrians in the alley of Bensi, and the whole street seemed to be still asleep, Hu Guiyang suddenly understood why no one sent breakfast, because the old bustard's family did not expect that there would be guests to get up so early.

Hu Guiyang first went to Shijia Hutong, took a look at his small home from a distance, everything was normal, there were no officers and soldiers or strange people to guard, he went to Guanyin Temple Hutong again, stood farther away, and did not see anything unusual.

His "escape" does not seem to have caused any disturbances.

Hu Guiyang knew the location of Yuan Di, calculated the route from the former military governor's mansion to Yuan Di, found a secluded teahouse along the way, sat by the window, asked for a pot of tea, and waited while drinking.

The weather was still cold, and the shopkeeper was reluctant to open the window, so Hu Guiyang asked for a few more snacks in exchange for a gap.

The silver accumulated in the past few years was spent like flowing water, and Hu Guiyang secretly felt heartache.

The capital is relatively late, often until dark, Yuan Bin is high, unfettered, and can go home at any time, so Hu Guiyang must keep an eye on the street, be prepared, if you can't wait today, come back tomorrow, but I don't know if there is a chance.

Fifth Brother and the others must be looking for his whereabouts everywhere, but they haven't made a big splash yet.

Hu Guiyang was extremely bored, silently reciting a few pronunciations he learned last night, but he couldn't make corresponding movements.

It was almost dusk, and Hu Guiyang saw the oncoming team.

Yuan Bin is old, and he is an old minister of the former dynasty, although he is a military attachΓ©, he is also allowed to take a sedan chair, and he walks slowly, there are more than a dozen people in front and behind, there are cards and sticks in front, and pedestrians have given way.

Hu Guiyang had already paid, got up and left, and the shopkeeper did not stop him.

After following the team for a while, and making sure that no one was following, Hu Guiyang quickened his pace and walked close to the side of the street, gradually leveling with the sedan chair.

The person who followed the sedan chair was Yuan Mao.

Walking out not far like this, Yuan Mao turned his head, and finally saw Hu Guiyang, with a look of extreme surprise on his face, and immediately reined in and said nothing.

Hu Guiyang slowed down.

Yuan Mao whispered a few words to the sedan chair, nodded again and again, beckoned another attendant to help the sedan chair, stepped aside, and watched the team go away, then turned to look at Hu Guiyang, with a look of vigilance.

"Let's go, I'll invite you to drink and introduce you to another beauty." Hu Guiyang said with a smile.

Yuan Mao still had a cold face, "Come on, let's talk about what is going on first, everyone says that you have escaped from the capital." ”

"Didn't say why?"

"There are a lot of rumors, it's still the demon fox."

"But you should always believe that I didn't frame Lord Yuan, right?"

Yuan Mao was silent for a moment, "Let's talk about why you came to me first." ”

"For the sake of the truth." Hu Guiyang put away his smile, "This is not the place to talk, let's go to a hidden place, by the way, please be my 'cousin' for a while." ”

Yuan Mao reluctantly agreed, always feeling that seeing Hu Guiyang again was a bad omen.
