Chapter Eighty-Six: Eavesdropping Outside the Window
"Oh, you just heard their conversation?"
Only then did Wang Yu know that people had already inquired, so he had no choice but to say anything else.
"Then let's stop the delay and go to the main house to which they mentioned."
After that, he turned around and came to the bottom of the slope, turned around along the left side very quickly, strode a few steps, and felt that something was wrong, before turning around, looking at Zong Jiyuan, who was still standing in place, and asked in surprise,
"What's wrong? Why don't you go, what are you waiting for? β
"Oh, okay."
Hearing that he was calling himself, Zong Jiyuan didn't think about anything anymore, and briskly went downhill and followed behind Wang Yu.
At this time, before I knew it, the sky was nearly three watches, and although there was a little moonlight, the surroundings were still dark and abnormal. Zong Jiyuan and Wang Yu went one after the other, bypassing several hillsides, and really saw the dwelling known as the "hunting house".
I couldn't figure out what the thieves were doing, it was so late, and most of the houses were still brightly lit.
didn't know where to find that Wei Xingyin, so the two of them had to choose the highest roof first, jumped up, and condescendingly observed the movements in all corners.
As he was watching, he suddenly saw the door of one of the houses being pushed open, and a person came out, and through the light, he could see that it was the person Xiao Ha'er met during the day, who was called "Brother Chang" by the other thieves.
It seems that this guy should be Wei Xingyin's henchman, it is better to follow him, maybe he will find out something.
Thinking of this, Zong Jiyuan turned his head to look at Wang Yu, and Wang Yu also happened to look at her and asked softly,
"Keeping up?"
"Hmm."
The two of them agreed, and of course they didn't have to say anything, and they leaned down together and taunted the man's whereabouts from the rooftop.
There are more than a dozen houses in front of and behind here, and except for the one in the middle, which is surrounded by a courtyard wall, the rest are scattered around.
The one with the courtyard wall must be what they call the main house.
Zong Jiyuan thought to himself in his heart.
But the little leader, who was always surnamed Chang, did not go inward, but turned around a few houses and went to the back.
Although they didn't know where he was going, the two of them continued to follow in unison, and when they came to the vicinity, they heard the neighing of horses in their ears, and they realized that this was the stable.
But when he saw the little leader surnamed Chang come to the stable, he looked at it, and suddenly shouted,
"Man? Where are they all dead! β
"Huh?! Master Chang, is there anything wrong with you? β
A few people got up from the corner and asked in a panic.
The little boss surnamed Chang looked at them,
"Didn't I tell you, tomorrow morning, Third Master Wei will rush to the main village, let you feed the horses, why are you all sleeping here?"
"But ......"
A groom muttered quietly,
"You also said, isn't it tomorrow morning that Wei Sanye will leave? Why do you have to feed it so early? β
"I said, you kid still dare to be stubborn!"
The little boss surnamed Chang scolded,
"As soon as the morning dawns, he's about to set off, so will it be too late for you to feed him again?! Thanks to me, if it's someone else, you'll just wait to be beaten! Listen, don't sleep tonight, and rest tomorrow when Wei Sanye leaves. β
It seems that this little leader with the surname Chang usually treats these subordinates very kindly, so although the horsemen did not dare to disobey his words, they were not particularly afraid, and after listening to his orders, they began to busily serve these horses.
Seeing that they were all busy, the little leader, surnamed Chang, turned and left the stable, and walked straight to a larger room to the east.
Where is he goingβ
Strange in their hearts, Zong Jiyuan and Wang Yu continued to follow the man, until they walked to the room before they saw him stop.
Like the rest of the place, it was brightly lit, and the lanterns on both sides of the door made it difficult for the two people in the hidden darkness to hide, so they had to stay on the roof.
At this time, the man surnamed Chang raised his hand and knocked on the door, saying,
"Third master, are you asleep?"
"Not yet, who is it?"
The lazy voice coming from the room turned out to be Wei Xingyin.
The little boss surnamed Chang still didn't dare to enter the door, but just replied,
"It's small, Changping."
"It's you, come in."
Wei Xingyin's voice sounded very weak.
With permission, Chang Ping hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, then closed the door with his backhand. As the door was tightly closed, the voices of the two people inside were naturally much lower, although with his amazing hearing, Zong Jiyuan could hear some of it, but it was still not very clear, and he couldn't hear it completely.
At this time, Wang Yu looked around, and when he saw that there was no one else, he jumped off the roof, and hid under the windowsill with his body, listening intently.
Seeing that he jumped down without discussing it with him, Zong Jiyuan simply no longer hesitated, and then jumped down, hid on the other side of the windowsill, and deliberately made an exaggerated eavesdropping action, which made Wang Yu's eyes that were exposed outside the face covering towel wide.
But it was too late to continue to communicate with his eyes, so he only heard Chang Ping say,
"Third master, the villain has already gone to the stables just now, the horses have been fed very well, and it will be absolutely no problem to set off at dawn tomorrow."
"yes, okay."
Wei Xingyin's voice was still not enthusiastic.
That Chang Ping seemed to think about it and said,
"Third Master, what's wrong with you? Isn't it nice to go back to Zongzhai, why don't you seem to be very happy? β
"Do you think I'll be happy?"
Wei Xingyin said lazily,
"The boss just let me go back, and specially sent someone to bring a letter and scolded me, saying that I had nothing to do, and I was targeted by the government and made trouble for him."
"It's no wonder,"
Chang Ping is very good at being a man, and hurriedly comforted,
"After all, the villa of the second master's family has just been bulldozed by the government, and the time that happened is not long, and today there are people from the official face in your store, and the uncle is naturally not steady, this is also for the third master."
"Is this called for me, dare to love the two of them with rich money, and some of them are silver, but what about me, just such a deal, he still doesn't like it,"
Wei Xingyin retorted unconvinced,
"Besides, can I be the same as the second child? He was the whole villa was taken over, and I was just two officials who came to the store to fish for oil and water, and I left without fishing anything......"
"Actually, it's here,"
Chang Ping's voice sounded more and more calm,
"Originally, Shopkeeper Sun sent Xiao Ha'er to say, those two officials are pressing step by step, and they have a posture of not going back and vowing not to give up, but when you originally ordered to kill the two of them, those two officials left ahead of schedule for no reason, and they didn't take anything, and they didn't come back later, don't you think it's strange?"
