Chapter 25: Decisive Killing (2)

Cai Bian stroked his beard with his hand...... Somewhat proud.

At this time and then, now it is different, I bought the maid in the villa, and unexpectedly learned that the weapons in the Xiaoyao Villa were privately cast. Privately crafting weapons is tantamount to a great crime of rebellion.

As long as it is verified, even if Huizong favors Jia Yi again, it is useless...... In the imperial court, it is not a matter of Huizong alone to decide such a major matter as the national society, the queen mother, the princes from all walks of life, and the important ministers of the imperial court...... All have a restraining effect on Huizong.

In the morning, his nephew Cai You wrote that Jia Yi had returned. At the latest, in the morning, Lu Hao, the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Forest Army, will bring his masters to Luoyang to assist him.

He had heard about Lu Hao's martial arts. It seems that the death of the red lady is related to Lu Hao. Since Lu Hao is here, the skills of those three-legged cats in Xiaoyao Villa will naturally not be taken seriously.

"My lord, what are we going to do now?"

"Inform Cui Zhizhou that they are ready to seal up all their strongholds in Luoyang City, especially the Hongchen Inn and the mansion by the Xintan Lake."

"Obey the order, and go and inform me."

……

In the backyard of Xiaoyao Villa, in front of the bamboo house, there were several people standing, including An Yixue and Skinny Monkey...... And She Yu.

They arrived at the door very early, but She Yi was in the house to heal Ruoruo with internal strength, so they just stood at the door and waited for She Yi's treatment to be completed.

Inside the bamboo house, Ruoruo had already fallen back in place, and her face was a little more bloody. She Yi sat cross-legged next to him, breathing his internal strength.

After these few hours of internal strength healing, Ruoruo's life characteristics are much more obvious. According to the current situation, at least for a few days, there will be no more life-threatening conditions.

Half a sound, She Yi, who was sitting cross-legged in **, slowly opened his eyes, walked down from **, he walked out of the door, and smiled slightly when he saw An Yixue and Xiaoyu guarding the door.

"Brother."

"Hmmm......"

She Yu walked in front of She Yi, looked at She Yi, and instinctively stretched out her hand, ready to grab She Yi's hand, but when she saw An Yixue and others on the side, she stopped her movements and withdrew her hand. Just standing next to She Yi.

"Brother, I'm sorry......"

"What are you talking about, girl? It's my brother who didn't protect you. Alright, let's go to the front yard. ”

She Yi touched She Yu's head affectionately and walked towards the front yard.

An Yixue on the side looked at the She Yi brothers and sisters walking in front with some envy, just nodded and said hello to She Yi, and then followed behind with the thin monkey.

"Miss An, I've worked hard for you these days. What about Sister Mochou? ”

She Yi, who was walking in front, asked casually.

"It's right to serve the son, Sister Mochou went to find that Wang Ying."

An Yixue replied very mechanically.

"Hehe, in her way, she can't ask why."

She Yi said lightly.

"It's hard to say. Childe, then Cui Zhizhou is here, in the lobby of the front yard. ”

"Well, we'll get over it."

……

In a courtyard south of the villa, Yue Mochou unlocked a house and walked in.

The person locked in this room is Wang Ying, who was brought back from Bianjing by She Yi last night. At this time, Wang Ying had already washed her body and changed into clean clothes.

She stood in front of the window and looked out of the yard. Yue Mochou had just walked into the courtyard, and she could naturally see it. She is relatively calm now, and by feeling and inference, that woman is She Yi's sister Yue Mochou, that is, Ruoruo's mother. Their Wang family has been dealing with Xiaoyao Villa for more than a year, and she still knows who is in Xiaoyao Villa. What's more, her elder brother Wang Dashun and Wang Dafa were framed by them.

When she heard the sound of unlocking, the corners of her mouth turned up, and a smug smile flashed. She Yi didn't come to beg her, didn't this Yue Mochou come to beg her?

Yue Mochou entered the house and stopped looking at Wang Ying. There was silence for a moment, then he spoke slowly.

"Miss Wang, I am Ruoruo's mother and Xiaoyi's sister Yue Mochou. I have something I want to talk to you about. ”

Wang Ying stood there without looking back, still looking out the window.

Half-ringing......

"Mrs. Yue, do you want me to thank you for saving your life?"

Wang Ying replied coldly. What she has to do now is to be very aggressive, so that she can bargain.

"No, I want to ask you for a favor to help remove the Gu poison for my daughter Ruoruo."

Yue Mochou was neither humble nor arrogant, and still said calmly......

"I don't have that ability, Madame, please be smart."

When Wang Ying said this, she was a little apprehensive. She was worried that Yue Mochou would really turn around and leave.

"Miss Wang, I heard Xiao Yi say that this Gu poison was given to the Lu family by your Wang family. Have you ever thought that no matter if my daughter is good or not, Xiao Yi will be angry with your Wang family. When the time comes, will your Wang family be able to withstand Xiaoyi's anger. ”

Yue Mochou turned around and prepared to leave.

When Wang Ying heard Yue Mochou's words, she was stunned, and her face changed suddenly...... How could she forget that this Gu poison was originally obtained by their Wang family from the south to curry favor with Lu Hao.

"Wait...... Wait a minute! ”

Wang Ying hurriedly turned around and called Yue Mochou. She was a smart woman, she knew Yue Mochou's influence on She Yi, and her attitude might determine her life and death, or even the life and death of their Wang family.

After Yue Mochou heard Wang Ying's voice, he stopped.

"Miss Wang is willing to help?"

"Madam, everything can be discussed."

Wang Ying's brows furrowed slightly, and a little cunning flashed in her eyes.

"Yes, it's negotiable."

Yue Mochou turned around.

"Madame, please be seated."

"yes, okay."

Wang Ying and Yue Mochou sat on the edge of the bed, and the two began to talk. Wang Ying was not cold and noble this time, and first introduced the origin of this Gu to Yue Mochou.

As many people know, Gu is a kind of witchcraft that uses poisonous insects to harm people, and it is also an ancient mysterious witchcraft, which is mainly popular in various parts of the south and some ethnic minorities.

Ordinary Gu worms are just ordinary insects, for example, if the millet is stored in the warehouse for too long, the epidermal chaff will become a flying insect, and this kind of insect is a kind of Gu.

It can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which was the Xia Shang ......

Zuo Chuanzhao said in the first year of the first year: "Gu Zhifei is also Gu", "Gu Jiuji, it becomes a flying Gu, and the name is Gu". Flying insects that turn from chaff are different from rice bran: flying insects can fly, but rice bran can't.

Among them, Kong Yingda's "Commentary on the Thirteen Classics" also recorded: "Those who use poison to medicine people, and make people unaware of it, are called Gu poison in this law." This Gu worm is very difficult to make. The Gu maker catches a hundred worms and puts them in one vessel. The big ones of these hundred insects eat the small ones, and the last big insect that lives in the vessel is called Gu.

Wang Ying was quite serious.

"Miss Wang, I heard Xiao Yi say that my daughter Ruoruo's Gu poison can only be suppressed, not completely eliminated, is that so?"

"You can say that, but it's not absolute, I heard my dad say that this Gu was originally a medicine that specializes in treating poisonous sores, and it was later used to harm people. When my father got Gu seedlings in Jiangnan, he vaguely heard that in Qingxi County, Jiangnan, there is a Manichaeism, and there is a saint in the sect, and that saint can not only grow Gu, but also solve Gu ......"

"Is this really the case? I've heard about it too. Looks like we have to let Shan'er go......"

Yue Mochou's face showed a solemn expression.

……

In the main courtyard and the main hall, Cui Zhizhou took Xing Zhutou and several officials waiting for She Yi.

Just when he was unsettled, She Yi and An Yixue She Yu Thin Monkey walked in from the door. Cui Zhizhou, who was still sitting in the chair, hurriedly stood up, with a wry smile on his face.

"Jia ......"

He was just about to speak, when Xing Zhutou, who was standing behind him, suddenly shouted.

"Stop! We are here to investigate the potato poisoning case of Hongchen Inn, so let's take a trip to the state capital! ”

A smug smile appeared on the corner of Xing Zhutou's mouth, he had already calculated what he wanted to do today. As soon as this Jia Yi appears, he will ...... immediately Do it...... Because no one could have imagined it...... He is a master of martial arts!

At first, he was worried that Jia Yi would not dare to come out, so he kept ignoring it and waited for Jia Yi to appear. Now that Jia Yi has appeared, what he has to do is to control Jia Yi.

With the shouts of the head of the Xing Catcher, the officials had already rushed forward and surrounded She Yi and a few people in the middle. These officials are obviously the cronies of this Xing Zhutou.

Jia Yi was slightly stunned, stopped, looked at this Xing Zhutou, and then looked at Cui Zhizhou, as well as several officials around him.

"Xing Zhutou, what are you doing?"

Cui Zhizhou's face changed.

"Master Cui, we are arresting the suspect. Thief, let's get caught! ”

Xing Zhutou walked towards She Yi step by step.

"Huh......?"

The thin monkey stepped forward with an arrow.

"Get out of the way and get back."

She Yi waved his hand, and the thin monkey retreated back and retreated to the back. She Yi calmly looked at Xing Zhutou who was walking towards him.

"Little catcher, do you do such a dangerous thing, does your family know?"

She Yi reached out and touched his nose, and said calmly, with a joking taste.

"Huh...... Yes, and your family knows! ”

Xing Zhutou sneered, two cold rays suddenly shot out of his eyes, and the momentum on his body was in vain.

"Death to the thief! Ha ha...... Eat me with a knife! ”

A sneer appeared at the corner of Xing Zhutou's mouth, as if the conspiracy had succeeded, and with a bang, the long knife in his hand was like a streamer, stabbing straight towards She Yi's chest.

"Childe be careful, his martial arts are extraordinary!"

Thin Monkey and An Yixue pulled out their muskets from their waists at the same time, aiming at Xing Zhutou, and She Yu pulled out the throwing knife......

"If you don't die, you won't die......"

When the musket wrench of Thin Monkey and An Yixue had not yet been pulled, She Yi moved, and directly met Xing Zhutou's sword.

"Bang ......"

With a "bang......", Xing Zhutou's whole person was knocked into the air and slammed into the ground with a bang. It's right next to Cui Zhizhou. The knife in Xing Zhutou's hand was broken into two.

One of them was at She Yi's feet.

It all happened in between a few moments......

Quiet......

Surprisingly quiet.

Thin Monkey and An Yixue looked at She Yi with some surprise, they had seen She Yi make a move before, but they had never seen She Yi make a move like just now......

She Yu also looked at She Yi in surprise, her brother She Yi was so fast just now...... So fast...... That punch was so powerful...... It's so big......

Xing Zhutou, who was lying on the ground, raised his head with difficulty, looked at She Yi with unbelievable eyes, and his lips trembled slightly......

"You...... How can you ...... Can ......"

At this time, Xing Zhutou seemed to be a different person, his eyes, his tone ......

"What could be?"

She Yi gently blew the dust off her hands.

“…… Good...... What a ...... Stealing the sky for ......"

Xing Zhutou finished this sentence with difficulty, his neck was crooked, and his eyes slowly closed.

"Inexplicable!"

……

The few officials around the periphery all drew their swords, obviously at the moment when Xing Zhutou rushed towards She Yi, the five of them were also going to rush towards She Yi, but for some reason, they stood there motionless, including their eyes and mouth shapes......

"Them?"

The thin monkey asked with some confusion.

"I was ...... by Childe's point"

An Yixue shook her head and replied for She Yi.

"Master Cui, I heard that you actually sealed my hotel, what other privileges do you have to recover...... Is there such a thing? ”

She Yi looked at Cui Zhizhou and asked nonchalantly.

Cui Zhizhou was still shocked and didn't come back to his senses...... After hearing She Yi's question, he was stunned.

With a "pop", he knelt on the ground......

"Master Jia, go down ...... Xiaguan ...... I know ...... wrong."

"Well, do you know what to do in the future?"

"Xia Guan knows what to do in the future......

"It's good to know, let's go back."

……

Cui Zhizhou and his party of six or seven people entered the villa, and when they went out, he was the only one...... Of course, he was lucky.

……

Walk through the second hall and enter the inner courtyard. This inner courtyard is the center of the entire Xiaoyao Villa, among them, She Yiyue Mochou Yue Shan'er Ruoruo and now She Yu's room are all in this inner courtyard, of course, An Yixue also has a boudoir in the inner courtyard, but An Yixue has never lived. She felt that it was inconvenient to live in the inner courtyard......

There are many mechanisms in the inner courtyard, and there are only two maids inside. Overall, it's like the Jia Mansion by Xintan Lake.

Entrance to the inner courtyard.

"Childe, with that person's martial arts, it is impossible to be a head catcher. What do you think this headcatcher will be? ”

An Yixue looked at She Yi.

"It should be my mother's former enemy...... It's a pity that he died, otherwise he could have asked something. ”

She Yi said with some regret. In fact, if it was placed in the past, this Xing Zhutou's martial arts were more powerful than She Yi's martial arts, and looking at the entire villa, except Ruoruo, no one was his opponent.

It's just that his luck is a little worse, and She Yi's current martial arts are incomparable. Otherwise, he might have really succeeded.

"What about those officials?"

"Shut it up and see if you can ask something? If you can't ask, stop talking. You guys go get busy first, I still have something to say to Xiaoyu. ”

"Okay."

An Yixue and the thin monkey turned around and walked out of the inner courtyard, and She Yi walked towards his room with his sister Xiaoyu.

"Brother...... You seem to ...... Suddenly it was a lot stronger. ”

She Yu hesitated for a moment and spoke.

"Well, my brother has always been very powerful, but you just didn't notice it. How do you feel these days? ”

"I feel like I have a lot of relatives in my body all of a sudden."

"That's good...... You'll stay with your brother from now on......"

"Hmm."

While the two were talking, they entered She Yi's room.

She Yi's house has a similar layout to the main house in Jiafu by Xintan Lake, but there is one less second hall. There is only one main room and an inner room, the main room is a reception room, and the inner room is a bedroom.

"Xiaoyu, you wait here for a while, I'll take a shower and change my clothes first."

She Yi entered the inner room.

His inner chamber is not the original layout, but has been remodeled. After the renovation, it has a little more modern flavor of the later generations, such as the bathroom and shower.

She Yu sat on a chair and looked at the room. She hasn't been here for a long time, and she has basically been with An Yixue for the past few days.

Although Yue Mochou also arranged a room for her in the inner courtyard, she only stayed once.

She came to Luoyang for the first time to approach her brother She Yi's room, and the layout of the room gave her a familiar feeling.

Because when his brother She Yi was in Shefu in Suide City, the layout of things in the room was like this.

Three years have passed...... Looking at ...... Looking at it, it gives people a feeling that things are wrong. For several years, she has been thinking about one thing, if three years ago, she did not go back, but followed her brother to leave Suide City. What will it be like now?

About half a pillar of incense, She Yi walked out of the inner room wearing loose clothes and walked straight to She Yu's side. (To be continued.) )
