Chapter 264: The Terrible Moment That Waits
In front of this large tree is the courtyard wall, and occasionally people pass by the special one-person road on the wall to check whether there are any suspicious people at the beginning of the banquet.
Under the courtyard wall, there is also a small port specially set up for the people on the other side of the river, and the voices of the housekeeper and other people on the port can also reach Xiao Huai'an's ears in this silent night.
"Today's wages have been settled, you see if the number of people is complete, if not, send someone to find it, but it is hard for you to come here for a performance, you are really worthy of the best performance troupe in the city, this dance is very elegant and refined, and the girls' feet are also very good-looking."
"No, thank you for the compliment, the housekeeper, we are all here, then we will go back first, if there is anything to perform next time, I hope the housekeeper will carry you more."
After the housekeeper finished speaking, the person who patted him on the back should be the head of the performance troupe.
The two of them were very familiar with each other, and they exchanged politeness, followed by a very harmonious laughter. The housekeeper smiled very honestly when he heard it, but this Nankang person's style of complimenting people was still a little uncomfortable for Xiao Huai'an to listen to.
However, the next moment, Xiao Huai'an suddenly remembered that he had been staying here, and it was absolutely impossible to see Su Jiao come down.
What's more, no one in this performance troupe knows Su Jiao at all, and now the class owner said in front of the housekeeper that the number of people has arrived, and the housekeeper is not surprised, isn't that equivalent to Su Jiao's identity, has it already been exposed?
Xiao Huai'an's pupils shrank suddenly, he should have thought a long time ago, Su Jiao was so fanfare, performing in front of so many people, even if the fireworks were far away and invisible, such a huge momentum, it was impossible not for people not to find clues.
Then the housekeeper just specially invited Su Jiao away, which was also premeditated.
Thinking about it, Xiao Huai'an became more and more worried about Su Jiao, and there was no need to be nervous about whether she was exposed or not, but Su Jiao was now trapped in Wangjiang Tower, how to rescue her?
Xiao Huai'an's eyes rolled, and he subconsciously moved his steps, thinking about heading towards Wangjiang Tower. But the people patrolling the walls of this courtyard are not vegetarians, and it is just such a small sound that a person who happened to pass by behind the big tree and heard it.
"What people!"
He could only hear a loud shout, and a harpoon or javelin or something like that in his hand instantly passed through the branches of the tree, and the branches were stuck in the windows of the row buildings.
The harpoon was inserted into the plank, and before it had completely calmed down, and the long wooden pole was still shaking there, so you can imagine how much effort the man who threw the weapon had expended himself.
Xiao Huai'an frowned, turned his eyes, and through the dense canopy of the tree, he seemed to be able to imagine what it was like for that person to stand on the courtyard wall.
Soon, the sound of this person's alarm instantly attracted the attention of other people in the mansion, Xiao Huai'an was thinking about whether to kill or continue to hide, but unexpectedly, as soon as his hand pinched the dagger he carried and hid on his waist, a person suddenly appeared and dragged him to a secret cubicle.
The housekeeper also heard the movement here, passed through the small door under the courtyard wall, and quickly reached the place where the sound was made, but a group of people searched left and right for a long time without any trace.
The housekeeper snorted angrily, "Didn't you find it?" Then don't hurry up and continue to look for it, today's such a good day, you actually have spies mixed in one after another, if you don't catch people, the master will blame it, and none of us will want to escape. ”
"Yes!"
However, after looking for a day, there was still no movement, and when it was dawn the next day, the business of the Rishang family continued, and a cargo ship set off from the bay of Nankang, and it took less than half a day's work to reach the other side of Daze.
In the end, I don't know how long I stayed, the sky outside gradually became dim, Su Jiao was in a daze, and she only felt that she was in the boundless darkness.
On the way, I sometimes wanted to wake up, but I smelled the familiar fragrance again, which made Su Jiao's whole body unable to move, and she fell into a deep sleep again.
Although she only has a weak consciousness left, and she can still know that she has not been moved during this time, or has been touched by any strange touches, but people sleep too long, and it is not good for her health after all.
The more Su Jiao slept, the more tired she felt, she frowned slightly, tried to move her fingers, and finally felt that her body had regained some strength, and she slowly opened her eyes.
After the scene in front of her gradually became clear, Su Jiao found that she was still wearing the costume she had performed before, and her whole body was intact, but she was tied to a cross like Jesus, except that her head hung down heavily on her empty neck, which was a little uncomfortable.
"Uh~"
Su Jiao groaned uncomfortably, and the few people sitting opposite him who watched Xi Shang's position didn't seem to notice this, and were still chatting to themselves.
"Something delivered?"
"Send it over, don't worry, sir, after we deal with that side well, the business will definitely get better and better in the future, and it is not so easy for Emperor Daze to check."
The first sentence should be about the sound of fireworks in the sun, and the second paragraph sounds more like a woman's voice, but this tone sounds slightly feminine.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she woke up, she could suddenly hear a little inexplicable clue, Su Jiao was already a little happy in her heart, and there were many people who didn't understand, what the two of them said was so hazy that it was really impossible to judge what was going on.
"Hmm." The sunset above nodded, but before Su Jiao planned to continue pretending to be dizzy and eavesdropping on a little more news, the woman next to him seemed to have found that Su Jiao had woken up, and directly got up and walked in front of her, raising her hand to hook Su Jiao's chin.
"Oh, I thought you would sleep for a while, but I didn't expect to wake up so soon, it's really amazing."
Su Jiao was forced to raise her head, her eyes drooping and narrowing into a slit, so that she could barely see the woman's face. The woman was at ease with a smile that couldn't see her emotions, and a slender white and slender beautiful palm gently rubbed it a few times on Su Jiao's chin.
If it were in normal times, Su Jiao would have envied this woman's hands for a long time, and they were too good-looking, not like the hands that a woman could grow. And at this moment, compared to the simple fireworks in front of her, Su Jiao felt an inexplicable fear of this woman from the bottom of her heart.
The back of the woman's hand looked perfect, beautiful as if it were fake, but the fingertips of the fingers, especially the thumb and index fingers, could feel a little thin coverage, but the calluses were not clean, and the roughness made his jaw feel a little painful.
As a woman, what kind of things does she have to do to be able to grind this special cocoon in these two places?
Su Jiao's heart trembled, maybe it was because she had also played a role such as a forensic doctor who used a knife, so she became more and more immersed in it, and she scared herself.
And the girl on the other side saw her face with a little despair, but she couldn't help laughing, slowly withdrew her hand, did nothing, and sat down next to the fireworks in the sun.
Away from the coercion coming from this girl, Su Jiao was relieved, but looking at the direction of him and the fireworks on the sun, she couldn't help but stare angrily.
This girl is the same person who met the girl behind the door when she was about to leave when she was stunned by the fireworks on the sun, and what is even more annoying is that she is still the girl who led the dance during the previous performance and forced to compete with herself.
Su Jiao has no sense of coercion, she is only full of hatred for women, she can hide it so deeply, it is really amazing, I didn't expect to come to this world and meet one or two, all of whom are more capable of acting than herself.
"I caught this man, sir, how do you plan to reward me?" The woman ignored Su Jiao's resentful eyes, her eyes were tactful, and in such a long position in front of her, she insisted on crowding around the fireworks on the sun to be coquettish.
And the fireworks on this day are also strange, how lustful he looks on weekdays, but today in the face of such a big beauty sitting beside him, he suppressed his brows and had a somewhat disgusted face.
"How can you lose money to you as a calculating person? But you can't touch this person today, she is Xiao Huai'an's wife, and we can only negotiate with Daze if we keep her. ”
Su Jiao raised her eyebrows, but she was not worried about how she planned to use herself in the sun, but she was very curious, could it be that she looked stupid on this day, but she was also a good player in disguise?
"This old man is naturally relieved, my hands have not been stained with blood for a long time, but I haven't come back for so long, and my hands are indeed a little itchy, so it's better for grandpa to hand her over to me, and I will try her for you."
The woman smiled, twisted her waist, revealing her beautiful figure, and deliberately reached out to get the utensils placed on the other side of the desk.
Sunrise Hanako sat beside him, his face was disgusted and helpless, he didn't even want to take advantage of him, and seemed to be thinking about how to get farther away from him.
Then, the woman brought the things over, just as Su Jiao was worried at the beginning, there were all kinds of delicate knives pinned to this cloth bag.
The blade of the knife was very thin and sharp, revealing an eerie sparkle in the light.
Su Jiao was so frightened that she didn't dare to gasp, and her feet were soft, if it weren't for the rope tied, I am afraid she would have collapsed directly to the ground at this moment.
The woman held the knife in one hand, and gently slid the edge of Su Jiao's face with the other hand.
