Xiao Yao carried the things he bought and hummed a little song and walked slowly, the sunset was obliquely shining, shining warmly, and the breeze was blowing, bringing a touch of comfort.

"Hey, did you see that? Just now, the fruit shop on the corner was smashed. Two aunts who were shopping for vegetables together with baskets privately discussed the smashing incident that happened on the street corner just now, and the description was vivid and realistic.

Xiao Yao didn't care about it when he heard the news at first, but as he heard more and more discussions, he realized that the fruit shop that was smashed was actually the Zhao shop he went to last time when he accompanied the eldest lady to go shopping, which made Xiao Yao pay a little attention and prepare to ask the brothers in the house about the situation after returning home, but it was just out of curiosity, and he didn't think much about it, Xiao Yao asked himself if he hadn't reached the point of being nosy.

As the sun sets and the night falls, lanterns are lit in front of the streets, and passers-by become sparse, announcing the end of the hustle and bustle of the day. Xiao Yao went to the uncle's house and pushed the door in, shouting a few words into the house, revealing the joy in his heart. Every time I come back here, I always feel completely relaxed.

"Yo, it's Xiao Yao who is back~ Come in, look at you kid, you buy so many things" The aunt ran out of the house and saw Xiao Yao, a smile bloomed on her face, and when she saw the things in Xiao Yao's hand, she inevitably scolded her, but Xiao Yao's heart was warm when she heard it.

The two carried each other into the house, the uncle hadn't gone home yet, and the aunt pulled Xiao Yao into the house to chat, and she had to listen to Xiao Yao talk about her life in the house these days. The aunt listened to it with relish, and interjected two sentences from time to time, asking Xiao Yao to cherish this job. The two were chatting happily, and the uncle walked in from outside, and when he saw Xiao Yao, he was also happy from the heart, as if he had forgotten the fatigue of the day in an instant and became energetic.

"Uncle, don't go up the mountain to chop wood in the future, I earn enough money to support your second elder now." Xiao Yao didn't see his uncle for a few days, and he felt that when he saw his uncle this time, he became more and more embarrassed, but no matter how Xiao Yao persuaded him, the uncle only said that his body was very tough, so he didn't have to worry, and he was relieved to work in Zhao Mansion.

Xiao Yao also knew that this matter could not be persuaded overnight, so he didn't say anything more. While chatting with the uncle, the aunt had already prepared the meal and beckoned the two to eat. Uncle is also a lover of wine, but the family conditions do not allow him to have fun, Xiao Yao first filled a cup for the uncle, and then brought himself a cup, the two raised their glasses and drank them all, so happy.

After a few cups, the uncle's words gradually increased, "Today, when I was selling firewood, I saw that Zhao's fruit shop was broken into by a group of hooligans and bullies, and the fruit in the store was smashed to pieces, and the store was also made out of shape by them" The place where the uncle sells firewood is just opposite the fruit shop on the corner of the street, and he sees it more realistically, and tells Xiao Yao about the situation at that time. Xiao Yao smelled something unusual in this matter, but now that something is wrong, he can't figure it out for the time being. It is said that the Zhao Mansion is also a local gentry family, how can ordinary hooligans and bullies afford to provoke it, and there must be something strange about this matter.

After thirty years of drinking, Xiao Yao was still sober, the uncle seemed a little drunk, and the tiredness of the day hit his body, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy. Xiao Yao ate some more simply, helped the uncle to lie down on the bed, and helped the aunt clean up before saying goodbye to the aunt, and before leaving, he forcibly handed the aunt a few taels of silver, so that the two elders should not be too thrifty, and repeatedly instructed a few words before leaving.

Xiao Yao left the uncle's house, deliberately detoured to the fruit shop to take a few looks, only to see the door plaque, the signboard was all smashed, the melons and fruits scattered all over the ground in front of the door, no one has cleaned up yet, the door of the store is wide open, blown by the cool breeze of the night, squeaky and gently shaken, showing a desolation, walking into the store, where is there still the neat appearance before, the shelves are crooked, the counter is overturned, and the copper coins are scattered everywhere, but no one picks them up.

Xiao Yao walked around the house, just walked to the door, suddenly, his brows furrowed slightly, and he instantly looked at the dark alley diagonally opposite, only to see a dark night, but with his keen intuition, Xiao Yao must have someone standing there staring at him just now. This further confirmed the guess in Xiao Yao's heart, this matter must not be a simple bully, someone must be manipulating and planning behind the scenes, specifically targeting the Zhao family.

At the same time, in the dark depths that Xiao Yao was looking at, the two men in black were clinging to the wall, not daring to show their heads in the light. The person in front of him was shocked into a cold sweat, he had been wandering on the road for many years, and it was the first time he saw a person with such keen senses, which was obviously not an ordinary person, otherwise he would never have found his own reason. The master sent two men to guard the place, although he did not explain the purpose, but only said that if anyone entered there, he would report it quickly.

The man in black behind him was about to step back and report the situation, "Two friends, I don't know what you are doing here late at night?" Xiao Yao's words came from the Nine Secluded Mansions, and the two of them flew out of the sky, scattering for nine days, almost breaking their guts.

Fortunately, they are all masters who lick blood on the knife edge, and after panicking, they quietly turned around, how dare they move, only to see Xiao Yao, who was two steps away, staring at the two of them and smiling, but this smile looked a little creepy, and the two now had no doubt that the person opposite had the ability to kill them in an instant. can stand behind him unconsciously, but he doesn't know it, how can the two of them resist this. At this time, I was only thinking about how to deal with the master in front of me, so that I could escape with my life.

"You haven't answered my words yet," Xiao Yao said to the two of them unhurriedly, as if he was chatting with a friend, asking questions and waiting for his friend to answer. It's just that the two of them sounded different, and they felt that the air around them had frozen and stopped flowing, and a coercion came to them, as if a thousand catties were pressing on them.

It's not that they didn't think about taking advantage of his unpreparedness, and the two of them dealt with him with both hands, but they still gave up this idea, for no other reason, they couldn't find a flaw in the person opposite, and they seemed to stand there casually, but it gave the two of them a feeling that they couldn't start, and they felt that at this moment, the person had locked his whole body, and his every movement could not escape his senses.

"We're just doing what we're told, and we're here to keep an eye on the people who come in and out of that fruit shop," led the man in black.

"On whose orders? What's the conspiracy? Tell me everything from beginning to end. Xiao Yao still asked the two of them nonchalantly.

"I can't do it...... Uh~" The man in black led by him hadn't finished speaking, but he only heard a sound of his~, and slowly fell backwards. The rest of the men in black turned their heads to look, and suddenly their hearts and galls were split, and they were frightened, and their faces were like loess. I saw the boss who was still standing beside him just now, a hole the size of a jujube kernel at the center of his eyebrows kept bubbling out with red and white things, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells, but he had lost his lustre, and the hole was unwilling.

The remaining black-clothed man forced his composure, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and supported the wall on his back with his hands, not daring to take a breath. Waiting for Xiao Yao's verdict.
