Chapter 204: Almost Exposed
Xiao Jingchen closed the book and put it aside, and said, "Buy a few interesting books for me tomorrow and come back." ”
Lin Ruan always felt that he was talking to a duck and a duck, so he looked up and sighed helplessly.
Forget it, he loves it.
It's going to be dangerous, she's smearing the soles of her feet with oil. It's no wonder that she doesn't pay attention to righteousness, it's really that this uncle can't communicate at all.
Xu is Lin Ruan's sigh was too loud, Xiao Jingchen finally understood her helplessness, and looked up at her: "You don't have to worry, no one can get within a hundred meters of me quietly." ”
If those people did come, he could detect them even from a few hundred meters away.
Lin Ruan didn't know what to say, so he raised his hand weakly and waved.
Uncle, it's good if you're happy.
Xiao Jingchen saw that she didn't believe it, and he didn't explain much, so he turned over directly and pulled the quilt to cover himself.
Lin Ruan's eyes widened: "Master Xiao, you don't plan to sleep here tonight, do you?" ”
Xiao Jingchen closed his eyes and hummed.
Lin Ruan felt that he was on the verge of collapse: "No, Xiao Ye, you sleep here, then where do I sleep?" I can't go sleep in the secret room. ”
Xiao Jingchen opened his eyes and glanced at her, took out a jade pendant from his body, and threw it at Lin Ruan.
Lin Ruan subconsciously reached out to catch it.
Xiao Jingchen said coldly: "With this jade pendant, you can take a thousand taels of silver from the local yamen." ”
Lin Ruan is a little unclear, so, what does the silver do? Is she the one who lacks the thousand taels of silver?
"I rented this kang."
After Xiao Jingchen finished speaking, his eyes closed, and he said again: "I'm going to bed." ”
Lin Ruan almost laughed angrily when she received this eviction order, this seems to be her territory!
But she really can't do anything about this uncle, people are powerful and powerful, even if the tiger falls in Pingyang now, it is not something she can bully.
Helpless, Lin Ruan had no choice but to withdraw from the room with the jade pendant and go to Xiuxiu's house.
Let's hope no one spies on her at night!
Nothing happened overnight.
Early the next morning, Lin Ruan went up the mountain as usual, and the mountain was quiet, and there was no feeling of being monitored and followed.
Lin Ruan did not take it lightly, remained vigilant, and wandered around the mountains and forests, looking for wild mushrooms.
Passing by the place where the masked man was bitten by a snake yesterday, Lin Ruan found that there were congealed blood stains on the ground and the footprints of wild beasts.
It seemed that the man was dying, as she expected.
Lin Ruan didn't have any sense of guilt, and she knew how to protect herself after crossing over from the end of the world. Those masked people, if they found out that she was hiding Xiao Jingchen, they would definitely kill her without hesitation.
So why should she feel guilty for killing them?
The first strike is strong, and the second strike suffers, she finally relives, and she will definitely not let people take her life easily.
Summoning the ability to send a clump of verdant weeds out of the blood-stained land.
Soon, the blood on the ground was absorbed by the wild weeds, and there was not a trace of it.
In an instant, the weeds quickly turned yellow, withered, and like the other weeds in the mountain forest, they were lifeless, and no one would know what had happened here.
Lin Ruan continued to walk forward with the basket, and half an hour later, she carried a basket full of mushrooms down the mountain.
In the afternoon, when Lin Tiezhu came back from the city, he brought a message: "Master, the money shopkeeper of the Drunken Immortal Building said that he would let you go to the county seat tomorrow, and his son-in-law would discuss with you about something." ”
He Junyu?
Lin Ruan asked, "What is the matter?" ”
Lin Tiezhu shook his head: "I didn't say it, I just said that you must go." ”
Lin Ruan thought to herself, eighty percent is for the fruit, and the business of Zuixianlou in the past half a year is more than a star, and her fruit has contributed a lot. Now that the fruit has suddenly been cut off, the money shopkeeper must have a headache.
Thinking that he was afraid of being blamed, he handed over the letter to Fucheng.
Yulin County to Fucheng, the fastest round trip will take five or six days, from her to find the money shopkeeper to talk, it is only four days, so soon to come to make an appointment with him, it seems that the money shopkeeper is really in a hurry.
Lin Ruan had a plan in his heart, so he gave lessons to the two students with peace of mind.
Aunt Zhou sat quietly on the side doing needlework, and after sitting for a long time, she felt a little tired, so she stood up and walked around.
When he walked outside Lin Ruan's house, he turned around and shouted: "Ah Ruan, it's not okay for your doors and windows to be so closed all day long, your house is a new house that has just been built, and the humidity is too great, so you have to open the window and scrape it well." Auntie helped you open the window. ”
Before the words were settled, Aunt Zhou had already quickly pushed open the door and entered.
Lin Ruan was frightened and quickly got up and chased after him. She just went into the room before class to read it, and the uncle was lying on the bed reading a book.
If Aunt Zhou bumps into this, how will she explain it? If word got out that there was a strange man in her house, the masked men would be coming to her right away.
Lin Ruan's scalp is about to explode.
When I chased into the room, I found that there was no figure of Xiao Jingchen in the room at all, and the kang was also neatly tied, not at all like someone had been lying down.
Aunt Zhou was opening the window, and when she saw Lin Ruan coming in, she said, "Why are you here?" You hurry up and keep an eye on Tiezhu and Saburo, I'll just come here. The new house must be ventilated more, so that it can dry quickly, otherwise after a long time, the moisture will soak into the person's body, and the joints will hurt when they get cold. ”
Lin Ruan smiled, "Okay, I remember." ”
While speaking, Lin Ruan looked around the house, where was that uncle hiding?
After looking around, Lin Ruan didn't see anything abnormal, thinking that he should have gone back to the secret room.
Secretly relieved, Lin Ruan turned around and went out to continue the class.
After Aunt Zhou opened the window of Lin Ruan's room in the room, she went to open the window in Xiuxiu's room.
After sending a few people away after class, when Lin Ruan closed the courtyard door and turned around, he found that Xiao Jingchen was lying on the kang with the quilt in a good manner, and his leisurely appearance seemed to have been lying there and had never moved.
Lin Ruan was stunned for a few seconds before coming back to his senses: "Xiao Ye, did you hide just now?" ”
Xiao Jingchen flipped the pages of the book and said, "There is no stealth technique in this world. ”
Lin Ruan asked curiously, "Then where were you hiding just now?" In such a short period of time, how did you manage to tidy up the kang and then hide so that you couldn't see the slightest mistake? ”
Xiao Jingchen did not answer this question.
Lin Ruan pursed his lips and turned to the kitchen to cook.
Early the next morning, Lin Ruan followed Lin Tiezhu to the county.
The place where the money shopkeeper made an appointment was in Xunweiji.
When it was almost noon, He Junyu came with his little servant.
He Junyu is as beautiful as ever, and a gray cloak is faintly visible in white clothes, which makes him have an extraordinary temperament. As soon as he saw Lin Ruan, he smiled and saluted: "Miss Lin, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed." ”
Lin Ruan replied with a smile: "He Gongzi, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you are still so radiant." ”
He Junyu didn't blush when he was praised, and smiled generously: "I heard Uncle Qian say that you have opened two very special shops, and I have long wanted to come and taste them, but I have never had the opportunity." Just because of Uncle Qian's urgent request for help, I came over to taste this delicious delicacy that is said to be irresistible. ”
