Chapter 218: My son can't help his father when he's older
Under the oil lamp, the two were quiet, and they finished eating a bowl of rice balls when they met their heads.
Outside, the sound of bangs suddenly accompanied by footsteps, and there were faint sounds of yawning and whining.
Wen Zhen walked to the window and looked at it, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, the person who bought the shepherd's cabbage dumplings for the palm feed elder has returned." She looked back at him and smiled, "Do you still want to eat shepherd's cabbage dumplings?" β
Yan Sui put his chopsticks aside and didn't turn his head back, "No." Just this one bowl is enough. β
The moonlight is too good tonight, the rice balls are too sweet, the heat in this hut is too warm, he has just made a big wish for the first time in his life.
At such a moment, he did not want to scheming and calculating, to perform those ominous tricks, nor did he want his hands to be bloodied again.
At this moment, I wish not to be stained with red dust and dirt, and to always be clear and clear in my memory.
Wen Zhen was a little surprised, he originally discussed with Yan Sui that he wanted to take advantage of this opportunity for the elder to buy supper and start on the elder's supper.
But then she smiled and said, "Okay." β
She stood by the window and watched the unsuspecting supper buyer walk past the window.
β¦β¦
The person who buys supper is a person, and this kind of chores have always been just errands for the little guys in the house.
He walked down the street as if at random, holding a small celadon jar wrapped in a cotton sleeve. In a place where no one could see it, the hands trembled slightly, and green tendons burst out on the backs of their hands.
Especially in the dark corners and through the dark alleys, the nails are pinched white.
He walked all the way in this way that seemed natural but actually trembled, crossed all the places that might cause attacks or accidents, and walked into the door of the Yi family.
As soon as he entered, his shoulders slumped.
And in the shadow behind the door, a person quietly walked out, looked at him, and said in amazement: "Nothing happened? β
The little guy replied, "It's fine." β
The man was even more stunned and said, "Didn't Li Shishi say that he had already provided the news to them?" If you are so probing, why didn't you do it? β
The little girl shook his head, but stuffed the small jar into the man's arms, and said, "I have already done what you want me to do, so you can spare me." After saying that, he hurriedly ran away.
Only the man was left standing in the court, frowning for a long time, and sighed, "Isn't it discovered?" β
β¦β¦
Yi Xiuding walked alone on the long empty street.
Her heart was a little chaotic, and her steps were a little dazed.
Suddenly, there was a long sigh behind her, and she turned around with some sluggishness, clenching the knife in her hand.
In the dark shadow of the corner, there was a slender figure, the hood covered her face, judging from the breath, this was a woman who did not know martial arts.
Yi Xiuding did not relax his vigilance because of this, the handle of the knife in his hand was held tighter, and the knife was in a position that could be swept out at any time.
The man didn't come closer, he stood there like a ghost, and said in a weak tone like a ghost: "Miss Yi, a person like you, how precious and pure the affection you show is, even if you can't accept it, you should be given some respect." That man insulted you, tortured you, despised you, and disliked you, did you really be willing? β
β¦β¦
After supper, Wen Zhen and Yan Sui went back to the Yi family compound, and they still had something to do tonight.
Wen Zhen looked sideways at Yan Sui from time to time, and always felt that he seemed to be a little tired, which was a bit strange, it was said that she used benzoin and let him sleep first for half the night, with his physique, he should be able to replenish his spirit.
When passing by a private house not far from the Yi family's compound, the door suddenly opened, and there was no one in the black hole gatehouse. Yan Sui stepped in with Wen Zhen without hesitation.
After closing the door, there were suddenly several more people in the empty courtyard, and Wen Zhen smiled when he saw it and greeted: "Chinese, German, English, Japanese, long time no see!" β
The leaders of the four guards did not have their usual laughter or alienation at this moment, they all looked at her squarely, and then said in Chinese: "Kneel!" β
With a pop, the four of them knelt neatly in front of her, and Japanese's knees were especially hard, and Wen Zhen suspected that he heard the crash of bones and cold ground.
She was startled, almost jumped on Yan Sui's back, her first reaction was to look at Yan Sui, and she was about to ask him what he was doing with this, was it a marriage proposal? In the blink of an eye, I thought that it was not a marriage proposal but a repentance, so the leaders of the guards came to ask her for forgiveness first?
Yan Sui knew what Xiao Jiujiu was spinning in her mind at a glance, the corner of her lips grabbed her hair, and couldn't help laughing: "What do you think?" β
Kicked Chinese's knee again: "What to do?" β
As soon as the Chinese let go, he said, "Hey, Your Highness, don't interrupt, we have something to say to Miss Wen." β
Yan Sui's eyebrows flew up, the left eyebrow said that the dog cub was bold, and the right eyebrow said that the son was old and couldn't help it.
Chinese led the three, knelt dead on the ground, looked up at Wen Zhen, and said sincerely: "Miss Wen, Master Wen, we have waited for this long time, and we finally have the opportunity to thank you in person." Thank you for not abandoning Your Highness, following life and death, and thank you for protecting Your Highness in such a situation. Today, a few of us would like to thank the girl for her great kindness on behalf of all the brothers. And to make sincere reparations for the disrespect I have done to you in the past, and from now on, your commands will be with us as much weight as Your Highness. As long as you have words, we will do what His Highness allows, and if His Highness does not allow it, we will do it. β
Yan Sui coughed and said compassionately: "Your Highness is here, don't you betray the Lord in person?" β
Chinese looked at him: "Oh." In this matter, it's pretty much the same. β
Yan Sui snorted angrily.
Wen Zhen has not yet spoken, Chinese has already taken several people to the ground, Japanese knocked particularly hard, and when he raised his head, his forehead was red and swollen.
Wen Zhen was about to speak, but the little fat man said first: "You probably want us not to do this." And you have to say that it is natural for you to save the person you like, and you don't need to be thanked by others. But if something happens to Your Highness, our group of waste snacks will have no face to live in the world anymore, and you will not only save Your Highness, but also us. I am naturally grateful for the grace of saving my life. β
Wen Zhen looked at the faces of several people, they hadn't seen them for a while, these people were all black and thin, and even the white and chubby German in the past shrunk in a circle, you can imagine the days they lived during this time. She sighed in her heart, but smiled on her face: "You have finished speaking, what else can I say?" If you want to thank you, who thinks that there are many benefits? Xie Bei, kneel, there is a kind of kneeling here for three days to see who can carry whom. β
Everyone laughed, and then they stood up one after another, as if they had completed a wish for more than a day, and sighed again, Lord Daowen is Lord Wen, ordinary girls can pick up what they can't catch, and everyone is relieved and happy with such a heroine.
Wen Zhen suddenly smiled and said, "Since I said so, I'll try it out." Hey, what if I want you to beat up Your Highness? β
Chinese: "......"
Only in Japanese, he immediately answered: "As long as it's not too heavy...... How much weight are you going to beat? β
Yan Sui: "......"
You should have been gnawed to death by fish in the river.
After a while, the guards scattered, fearing that if they stayed any longer, the already unworthy De Jong Yangong would be disbanded on the spot.
Before leaving, they exchanged information. Wen Zhen confirmed that it was okay for Yi Ren to leave Li Xiao, and was received by the guards, most of the people led by Tang Muzhi fled, Tang Muzhi himself saw that someone came to save Yi Ren Li, so he left first, probably because he wanted to make a time difference, and wanted to use Yi Renli's weapon and Li Xiao's head flower to go to the pit Wen Zhen first, not wanting Wen Zhen not to enter the pit she had prepared, forcing her to step on her own pit.
Wen Zhen gave the guards a few more words. The two candidates for Elder Chuanlan had bought the poems she had arranged for the guards to send over, and then they went up to the second floor of Elder Qiuwen. After the two went upstairs, Wen Zhen arranged for someone to deliberately remind Elder Qiuwen, saying that the words of the two people were bought, which caused Elder Qiuwen to be angry and take someone to find the two people who were unlucky, but it turned out that they were two cronies of Elder Chuandeng and had died.
At that time, most of the people who carried the jar went to Cuihua Building next door to Huatian Building to buy his family's well-known shepherd's cabbage dumplings for supper. In the Yi family compound, everyone knows that the elder Zhangfang has to eat the shepherd's cabbage dumplings from Cuihua Building every ten years, and tonight is the day.
Yes, this time Elder Palm Feed was also involved, and Elder Qiu Wen had reasonable reason to suspect that Elder Palm Feed had joined forces with Elder Chuandeng because he was not on good terms with him, which was intended to be unfavorable to him.
Elder Qiuwen was furious, feeling that he was very wronged, he was a person who only loves poetry, he did not fight or grab on weekdays, in order to avoid suspicion, he invited literati and ink writers to talk about poetry and lyrics in the flower building all day long, which can also scare him?
Isn't that amazing? Relying on years of operation, mastering the main guards of the Yi family compound and a large number of weapons is amazing? forced him to write a poem and scolded him to death in the world!
At this time, Elder Chuandeng rushed to see that his beloved adopted son had been killed, and he was also furious. When Elder Zhangfang heard about this, he was originally happy to watch the excitement, but Elder Qiuwen bit back and said that he and Chuandeng were jointly going to attack Elder Qiuwen, and he was also furious.
The three furious elders are fighting in Huatianlou at the moment.
When the fight is over, it will almost be a big loss.
The initiator, Yan Sui Wenzhen, just smiled, and moved a few more in the battle plan against the Yi family.
Arrange for the guards to continue to lurk, and the two returned to the compound, this time going straight to Danyaju.
Now in the compound, the three elders have been transferred to the Huatian Building, and the remaining elders may not be able to sit still, they will definitely go to muddy the water, and in order to protect themselves, they must have taken away a lot of guards, so the current Yi family compound is the emptiest.
The reason why I didn't go to explore Yi Leshi until now is that I need such a time, and Wen Zhen Yansui's arrival is too dazzling, and it will be stared at by everyone at first, if Yi Leshi is still awake, he must be waiting for them.
Then let him wait until his vigilance is lowered and his patience wears off, and then he will go for a while.
Wen Zhen is very curious about Yi Leshi, because this family master has always been associated with adjectives like mystery and madness in legends, but few people have seen him, in the past ten years, he has basically been closed in the Tianxing Terrace, and the general affairs have been handed over to the Hall of Elders, and it is said that he is very good at pharmacology, but there has never been any news about this person's personality and other strengths.
Even Yan Sui's spies in Changchuan couldn't get any effective information because they didn't have much chance to see him.
The people who can't be described are the people who are most changeable.
This time, the road was really smooth, and there were many fewer guards, not to mention that the organs in this compound had been demolished.
Danyaju does not have a yard, standing behind an artificial lake in Yijia, facing the entire Yijia, like a silent mountain, overlooking the entire Changchuan.
It looks like it's unobstructed, and anyone can go.
But there is a forest in front of the lake, and there are no boats on the lake.
Whether it's getting a boat or finding another way, the time to cross the lake can't be short, and there is no cover during this time, just a target is enough to die a hundred round-trips.
Danyaju is the compound of the Yi family, and the one with the most guards is distributed. The shadow guards are divided into sixteen teams, each with six to ten people. Yan Sui got the news that whether it was on the lake or in the forest, there would be no more than two teams sent to investigate the situation, and most of the forces would be left to guard the Danya residence.
Yan Sui took Wen Zhen and shook into the forest without hurrying.
There is naturally a mechanism in the forest, but it is equivalent to nothingness for him.
Not only that, but he also collected a few small parts with exquisite designs that he could eye, and said that he would go back and make something for Wen Zhen.
But he didn't destroy all the mechanisms, except for the ones that couldn't be broken and couldn't be passed, most of them he avoided, and the complete ones he avoided, he would easily make some adjustments.
When I had done all this, I went to the other side of the forest, facing the empty lake, with my back to the forest.
Wen Zhen glanced back at the forest from time to time, afraid of some sudden person or attack, but Yan Sui was very relieved, and kept staring at the river intently.
After a while, Yan Sui returned his hand, and a pile of stones that had been clasped in his palm shot into the forest.
Immediately, there was a constant resounding in the forestβa puff of fire was raised, a pile of poisonous sand flew out, some poisonous water flowed out, thousands of millimeter needles were shot, and the ground shook endlessly, creating the effect of countless people breaking into battle at the same time.
There were many shadows in the dark forest, as if someone was constantly flashing.
Danya dwells inside.
In a secret room where there are no stars and no moon, and there is no light, a slender gray-clothed man stands in front of a stone slab, the stone slab is hollowed, there are stone bars in the vertical and horizontal, and the stone beads are tied to the stone beads, and the lines are connected behind the stone beads, and the lines pass through the wall, hidden in the ground, and do not know where they lead.
The whole slate looks a bit like a large abacus.
Now on this metamorphic stone abacus, some stone beads are constantly rolling, and some stone beads are quiet, as if there is an invisible person constantly moving.
The man in gray looked at those stone beads and kept saying, "Zhendong, the quicksand well is launched." β
"Kun Nannan, the poisonous dragon's mouth is launched."
"Xundong, the scorpion pit is activated."
"Kanbei, fireworks are launched."
β¦β¦
As soon as he spoke, a man in gray took down the stone beads in the corresponding direction, and a group of people gathered silently.
The man in gray kept talking for a long time, and the expressions of those subordinates gradually became solemn.
Someone lost his voice and said: "The quadrangular array is almost all activated, how many people are here!" β
Another said: "Unprecedented! Could it be that the imperial guards have all infiltrated the compound? That's impossible! There are five elders out there! β
The person who had been looking at the slate suddenly said coldly: "Don't forget, whether it is Yi Ming or Yan Sui, they are both proficient in organs. β
As soon as these words came out, they immediately became cold, and someone whispered in the middle of the night: "No." Though...... I guess the new guests are either Yi Ming and his wife or Yan Sui Wenzhen, but I still think that this matter is too mysterious. No matter which pair these two pairs are, they are the sons of daughters, this kind of identity, entering Changchuan, not to mention the encirclement of ten thousand troops, and sneaking into our Yi family early alone, this is really, really too bold......"
The gray-clothed man in front of the slate didn't speak, and he didn't seem to dare to believe it, so he said silently for a while: "No matter who it is, the destruction of the mechanism array to this extent, you have to go and see it." Judging from the stone calculation, the opponent marched halfway through the forest, and he alarmed a large number of mechanisms, and he could not reach the lake. But we have to prepare with both hands, the Jiaomu team, the Doumu team, you two teams go, go from the water tendons, the Kangjin team, the ghost gold team, patrol and respond at the mouth of the lake, especially pay attention to the direction of Mrs. Pingyun's yard. A team of people rowed over the lake. The rest of the people were kept in their places, and until they were called, they were not allowed to change shifts and rest. He glanced at the wall and said, "In half an hour, it will be ......."
He did not say any more, but everyone understood, and went away.
The two teams in green clothes stood on a disc in the center of the room, pressed the mechanism, and the disc led them downward.
When they went down, the disc returned to its place, and the second team in yellow also stood on the disc and went down.
The rest of the people walked out of the room and scattered around the Danya Residence, strictly guarded.
The leading gray-clothed man did not move, his index finger plucked the stone calculation in front of him, and after a while, he pushed one of the stone beads, the back of the stone abacus was flipped, and the back was a pair of stone slabs, carved with a zigzag and intricate groove, the groove was three fingers wide, some places were smooth and clean, and some places were glued with small black beads, where these beads were there, the groove was very narrow, and the gray-clothed man put a steel ball on the top of the slate, and pushed the slate back to its original position.
At some point, a door appeared behind the stone slab, and the inside was dark and there was no light, and the man in gray calmly walked in.
