Chapter 102: Overreacting
Xu Ze soon fell asleep.
He keeps vigil for several days in a row, just like a cat with hair on end every day, can he not be tired? Now I can rest, and I immediately fell asleep.
Next door, Xia Zhi made the bed and retreated, Xu Si turned his head, but saw Xu Yin standing by the window, quietly looking out through the gap.
"What are you doing? Still not sleeping? Xu Si asked.
Xu Yin "shh ā
Xu Si was stunned, then lowered his voice and asked, "Is there a situation?" ā
Xu Yin nodded, took out the sleeve arrow in his arms, and stuffed it into her hand.
"When the lights are out, you go into the cupboard, and unless I call you, anyone who comes will shoot him with an arrow!" Then teach her how to use the Hidden Arrow and where to find it.
Xu Si kept it in mind one by one, and didn't ask half a word on the side.
After Xu Yin finished explaining, he raised his hand to his lips and made a chirping sound like an insect.
Xu Si blinked, with a look of surprise on his face. She never knew her sister would do this, and her voice was almost indistinguishable from the real one.
After a while, someone gently knocked on the outside window.
Xu Yin went over and opened it, and an ordinary man turned in: "Third Miss." ā
It's Chai Qi. When she decided to accompany her sister to Dongjiang, she chose her own entourage. One of them is Wei Jun, he has been to Yongcheng with him, and he is familiar with each other's styles, so they don't have to run in with each other. The second is Chai Qi, although she has only known each other in this life for a few months, but she has memories of her previous life, she knows Chai Qi's skills very well and uses them easily.
In addition, there is Dr. Huang. The king of Dongjiang is seriously ill, and Dongjiang is now in danger, and he is not at ease if he does not bring his own doctor.
The last one was Tian Zhi, the envoy sent by Wu Zijing to Nanyuan. He is greedy for flowers, and he is greedy for life and afraid of death, if he hadn't made meritorious contributions when he collected Yongcheng, he would have been beheaded a long time ago. But he has one of the advantages of being a person, that is, he is well versed in human nature, and he is accustomed to observing words and feelings. The Gu worm that Doctor Huang gave him at the beginning was actually fake, but now that he has researched the truth, he is not afraid that Tian Zhi will be disobedient.
"How?" Xu Yin asked softly.
Chai Qi replied: "In the lobby just now, there are a total of seven people who have problems...... The subordinates followed one of them, found a camping spot five miles away, listened to them, and started when they arrived. ā
"Does Wei Jun know?"
"The subordinate has already told the captain of the guard."
"Okay, you go and pass the word......"
Chai Qi nodded, and quietly went out through the window.
Xu Si only dared to speak at this time: "Ah Yin? ā
Xu Yin smiled at her: "Sister, don't be afraid, we have taken precautions, these people are here to send them to death." ā
Xu Si nodded and asked with a little worry, "Who are they?" ā
"I guess I don't want you to go to Dongjiang." Xu Yin didn't say more, changed into clothes that were convenient for movement, turned off the lights, pushed her into the cabinet, and went out through the window by herself.
ā¦ā¦
Bangzi knocked on the second watch, and the inn was quiet, only the horses in the stable occasionally snorted.
The lights in the guest rooms were all turned off, and the guards in charge of the vigil stood under the wind lamps, looking around vigilantly.
Xu Ze fell asleep, and suddenly the sound of tiles being stepped on in his ears sounded, and he woke up suddenly.
This inn is a bit old, and the roof tiles are loose, and when you step on it, it warps up, and even if people come to notice it immediately, when you pull your legs, there is still a slight collision sound.
Xu Ze opened his eyes, not sure if he was dreaming just now, and after waiting for a while, he still slapped his forehead quietly and self-deprecatingly.
Sure enough, he was overly nervous, and every time he felt that there was a situation, he tossed the guards, but nothing turned out.
He closed his eyes and went back to sleep.
I felt a little sleepy, and there was another sound outside.
Interrupted one after another, he couldn't sleep a little, so he simply got up with his clothes on, opened a crack in the window, and looked out.
A man walked up from the other side of the hallway, tying his pants and chanting a word.
Xu Ze borrowed the light and found that it was Dr. Huang.
This Doctor Huang, who had cured his uncle before, was very courteous in the Assassin's Mansion, and even his family was picked up from Yongcheng, treated with the confidants in the mansion, and settled in the back street. Others say that he has superb medical skills, but Xu Ze always feels that this person is chattering, and he does not have the temperament of a miracle doctor at all.
Look, I didn't even wash my hands after going to the thatched house, and my hands rubbed around the wall after tying my pants, which was really unhygienic.
After a while, Dr. Huang entered the room, and the surroundings were quiet again.
Xu Ze yawned and wanted to go back to bed, when another door opened.
This time it was a fat man, Xu Ze recognized him, his name was Tian Zhi, he was originally ordered by Wu Zijing to come to Nanyuan to spread the word, but then I don't know how, it seems that he made a contribution when he subdued Yongcheng, and the uncle spared his life and arranged to do some irrelevant work in the yamen.
In Xu Ze's spare time to study, he will also go to the yamen to study, and he happened to listen to those records about him. This Tian Zhi has some abilities, but what he is best at is drilling camps, talking about people when he sees people, talking nonsense when he sees ghosts, and he doesn't want to make a little face when he pats his ass.
He looks down on such a person the most, and he usually looks at him and doesn't give a single look. I don't know what the uncle thinks, but he actually picked him to accompany him, I was really worried that he would be embarrassed in Dongjiang.
Tian Zhi obviously didn't come out to go to the thatched house, he looked left and right with thief eyebrows, looking like he was going to be a thief. But when I passed by Sister Xu Yin's room, I only glanced at it and quietly went downstairs.
What is this kid doing? You don't want to do bad things, do you?
Xu Ze hesitated, put on his clothes and felt out of the door.
But as soon as he walked to the top of the stairs, he heard a noise from the kitchen, and then Tian Zhi's wicked laughter rang out: "Hey, hey, sure enough, the two young ladies didn't finish eating, don't ......."
Xu Ze was speechless, so he went to steal food?
A few days ago, he would go downstairs to make sure. But every time it was a false alarm, he was already embarrassed to trouble the guards. Wei Jun is very experienced, and he must have overreacted.
Thinking like this, Xu Dagongzi slowed down his steps and quietly returned to the room.
What he didn't know was that as he entered the door, a figure on the beam of the roof glanced at his companion in the corner, put away the knife in his hand, and jumped down.
The two men quietly went downstairs and followed up with the kitchen.
Tian Zhi, who was eating and drinking, didn't seem to notice anything, and was eating deliciously, when suddenly a cold thing hit his back.
His elbow into his mouth stopped abruptly.
"Don't move, otherwise the knife in the master's hand won't be long, and maybe it will be stabbed." The voice of threat rang in his ears.
There was panic in Tian Zhi's eyes, and the elbow in his hand almost fell off, but fortunately he was caught by another person.
The man looked disgusted, but he didn't dare to let go, and carefully put his elbow back on the board.
"What do you want to do? IāI'll give you all the money, don't hurt me! ā
The person behind laughed: "This lord, what is your money alone?" When your young lady goes out, that's a lot of money, right? ā
