Chapter Twenty-Four: The Trial Building

The courtyard poured wine and oil is easy to burn, Wen Zhen looked at the fire that ignited almost instantaneously with satisfaction, picked up Zhang Qi, and threw it into the water tank in the courtyard with a bang.

There was a splash of water, but fortunately, the water in the tank was shallow and could not drown. Wen Zhen clapped his hands without changing his face, looked around Zhang Qi, and finally chose his buttocks, the knife in his hand simply cut off his trouser belt, his pants slipped off, and a big white buttocks were very conspicuous in the dark night.

Wen Zhen didn't look at it, kicked on the wall, climbed the wall with his strength, half-knelt on the wall, lowered his figure, and by the light of the fire below, he saw a few black shadows rushing wildly, and farther away, the bangzi knocked sharply, and the alarmed Wen family turned on the lights, and a twinkling star spread out in the night.

As soon as they rushed in, Wen Zhen immediately turned over and went down the wall, turned to the front of his courtyard door, and bolted the door from the outside with the iron bar he had prepared.

The first few people rushed in, found that the fire was too big, and saw Zhang Qi in the water tank, and hurriedly pulled the person out, but saw that he was slick and didn't wear pants, and the leader suddenly swore and sweared, helpless, if he took people out like this, it would be a lot of trouble if he was seen, and he hurriedly undressed and covered the person, and then rushed out together.

This time, I couldn't rush out.

The fire is not a trivial matter, the rescue must arrive as quickly as possible, so it has been repeatedly delayed, the people of the Wen family have arrived, and after they have entered the line of sight, Wen Zhen pulled off the iron bar again.

The people who kept kicking the door inside didn't kick it open a few times, and they were kicking with all their might, and with all their strength, they rolled out like a gourd, and they were rolling to the feet of the head of the Wen family and his guards who came over.

The group of people were so dizzy that they were so dazed by the smoke and fire that they didn't notice it, and they wanted to get up and continue to leave the place quickly, when they suddenly heard an angry shout above their heads, and when they looked up again, they were stunned.

Smelling the roar of the test spoon, the entire Wen family compound could hear it.

"Where did the bastard come from, he dared to set fire to the Silent Garden! Take it for me! ”

Zhang Qigu rolled on the ground, the clothes wrapped around his body were scattered, the sound of the fire was white and dazzling, and the mothers-in-law on all sides exclaimed in surprise, and turned their heads with red faces.

Smelling the test spoon, his face became more and more pale.

"Bastard! Darn! Check it out for me! Thorough investigation! ”

Behind the crowd, Wen Jinchun, who came in a hurry, didn't even have time to put on his clothes, his face was cold and pale.

*************

When the fire of Wenjia was ignited, there were people singing in the mountains and fields in the distance.

The song is rich and desolate, but the tone is graceful and elegant, echoing among the inky trees at midnight.

The songwriter's clothes were also drumming, and the distant firelight danced on his face, not reflecting the light of his heavy eyes.

He looked at the bright red place with his hands, and slowly stopped singing, as if asking the wind, "Where are the people?" ”

Someone in the shadows replied, "It should be not far from here." The subordinates have already checked, there is a hill near here, which is inaccessible and can be used as an appointment location. ”

The man snorted, and said: "Although it is inaccessible, you should not take it lightly, you will block the whole mountain at that time, and if anyone breaks by mistake, you will be killed." ”

The last four words were murderous, but he said them lightly and calmly.

"Yes."

***************

Wen Zhen had already climbed over three walls at this time.

Fighting fires has always been the most chaotic time, and it is also the time when the manpower is transferred most thoroughly, she slipped away quietly, sneaked all the way, and successfully reached the outer wall, and sure enough, she didn't touch anyone all the way.

She planned to do it yesterday, firstly, she didn't want to offend the Wen family too ruthlessly, so as not to leave future troubles, and secondly, if there was no reason, the old man Wen would hate the Wen family again, and she would not do it like this.

Wen Jinchun just came to the door to be a ghost who only died for the dead.

No matter how Wen Jinchun plans to deal with her, the final outcome will become "Wen Jinchun tried to assassinate Wen Zhenzhen and put the safety of the old ancestor at risk." ”

Enough for her to drink a pot.

With her understanding of Old Man Wen, even if she is annoyed, she will not demolish her. After all, Wen Jin's pure heart technique is not in the first place.

With a "thud", she jumped off the wall.

It feels like the solid ground under your feet at this moment is as wonderful as a cloud.

That's the taste of freedom.

The next second, she was slapped on the shoulder.

"Hey, I knew you were here!"

Wen Zhen felt that his soul had been half flown away, and he was drifting farther and farther away with the kite called "Freedom".

There was still half of the soul, barely controlling the voice without shaking, "Who! ”

A pair of black black eyes leaned over, the eyelashes were too thick, and the distance was too close to look like a large tuft of hair cabbage, and it looked like it had thick black eyeliner.

"Me!"

Wen Zhen stepped back, and only then did he see Yi Renli's beautiful face at the moment.

"Why are you here!"

"I should ask you this, if it weren't for my intelligence, would I have left you here?"

The tone is resentful, the question is, is she very familiar with him?

At this moment, he is still under the outer wall of the Wen family's compound, and the nearby street market actually belongs to the Wen family, Wen Zhen dragged this guy to a secluded place first, and then repeated the problem again, and Yi Renli said aggrievedly: "I have been in the outer courtyard for so many days, no one pays attention, I am idle to catch lice, and you don't say to hand me a message, I have to come and see it myself, I saw you pouring wine and oil at noon, and if you want to make trouble, you will definitely have to escape from the back wall here." So together with the fire, I'll come here. By the way, you're so good, why do you want to run? ”

"Because the Wen family wants to kill me, should I sit still and wait to be killed?" Wen Zhen replied more aggrieved than him, "Don't ask so much, just go and be safe, take advantage of the Wen family's current indifference, hurry up and go first." ”

"Where to go?" Yi Renli led her, turning back as she walked, "Can we walk like this?" The Wen family will send someone to chase after them, right? Besides, I didn't prepare, and I didn't even take the luggage. ”

Wen Zhen stopped and squinted at him.

This man, when I first met, was in a dark alley, trying to pick up the belongings of a corpse.

She didn't believe that a thug in the market with a bad bottom line would keep his promise so much, and it was very strange that he agreed to escort her to Beijing.

Maybe he had a purpose, but she'd had stirred up enough muddy waters, and she wasn't going to have another bucket.

"We can't leave with our luggage," she said, "and as for the entanglement, aren't I thinking of making money now?" ”

"How do you earn it?"

"I'm a good cook." Wen Zhen smiled and nodded to himself, "With my good cooking skills, I can sell a secret recipe casually, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to make up enough money for the journey?" ”

"That's just as well. It's just that at this hour, whose restaurant is still open? Where are we supposed to stay this night? ”

"This town is thriving, you see, aren't there lights ahead?"

The place where Wen Zhen fingered, sure enough, the lights were bright, and the song was faintly endless, and the two walked closer, and looked up to see the three words "Trial Lan Building" on the forehead of the door inlaid with gold and jade, and the glow was dazzling.

Yi Renli exclaimed: "This restaurant is so angry. ”

"Yes," Wen Zhen said sweetly, "You wait for me outside, I'll go talk to the boss, and if it's appropriate, let people call you, this restaurant is so big, there must be a place to stay." If we can negotiate, we'll have a place to sleep tonight. ”

Under the light of the stars and moon, the girl's smiling eyes are slightly bent, her pink cheeks are like peaches, and her skin is condensed, which is really sweet as honey.

Yi Renli didn't know if it was the light or the moonlight that was too blurry, at this moment he saw the past Wen Zhenzhen, and the reserved and cold image of the past, in the light of the infinite stars and moon, slightly convex another smart and amiable her.

His brain seemed to slow down a bit, and he nodded, "Okay." ”

Then Wen Zhen went in, and before entering, he waved his hand and made a "rest assured" mouth.

Yi Renli stared at her back, his eyes were in a trance for a moment, and then he folded his arms and waited against the stone lion at the door.

It was late at night, and I don't know when the fog started, and the gossamer came up, and the figures in it were enveloped, so they also became shadowy, and their faces were difficult to distinguish.

Yi Renli shuddered suddenly, raised his head in some confusion, and saw ahead, deep in the fog, I don't know when, a figure suddenly appeared.

**************

Wen Zhen enters the door, the shape of this building is unique, a door is carved on the wall, turn around the wall, there is a small bridge flowing water, a garden of peach blossoms, the delicate face under the flowers is half hidden, the pink and white cuidai, the fragrance is full of fragrance, there are eating and laughing from time to time, but the timbre is quite dull.

It is not much like an elephant aunt hall, but like a place for literati and ink to talk.

The reason why Wen Zhen knew this place was that she passed by this place when she came, she had the heart to get out, and she looked carefully along the way, this building was very tall and eye-catching, and she just heard two men coming out of it, laughing and talking about which one was more tactful and lovely as she walked.

Coincidentally, it's so late now, and only here are the songs that keep singing.

After turning the wall and walking a few steps, a tall and thin man came up, and when he saw her, he couldn't help but be stunned, and opened his mouth to speak, Wen Zhen had already said, "I'm not here to buy spring." ”

The man looked her up and down, his thin lips lifted, and he sneered, "Look at you either." ”

"I'm here to sell a spring." Wen Zhen was not angry and replied with a smile.

The man took a step back, as if struck by lightning.

"Do you see the person outside the door?" Wen Zhen stood in the shadow behind the wall, pointing out.

The tall and thin man turned to the wall, looked out, paused, and looked surprised.

"You're ......"

"That's my brother out there." Wen Zhen lowered his eyebrows and lowered his eyes, looking depressed, "I'm ashamed, my father is a gambler, my mother is sick, and my family is in the middle of the road, and I can't live yet...... I heard that your building is the leading small restaurant in the local area, let's ask, do you want people? ”

"Girl," the man stared at her, his eyebrows raised into the sky, "From ancient times to the present, I have only heard of a ruthless brother selling his sister into the Qinglou, but I have never seen an unscrupulous sister sell his younger brother into the Xianggu Pavilion. ”

"Isn't there anything I can't do," Wen Zhen wanted to cry and touch his face, "Aren't I not as good-looking as my brother." ”

The man looked out again and nodded approvingly, "That's too, it's far from it." ”

Wen Zhen wanted to smack him.

As for it.

Yi Renli is good-looking, but not to the point of shocking the world, she is also a sweet little beauty, why is she "far behind"?

Maybe the aesthetics of the ancient people are different from ours, or maybe the people are especially popular in this era?

"yes, yes, you've seen that, how?" Wen Zhen nodded again and again.

"You're really here to sell yourself?" The man stared at her, still a little suspicious.

"Ah Li!" Wen Zhen shouted, "Just wait for me outside, don't run around." ”

After a while, there was a muffled sound of Yiren's departure.

"It's going to be good soon, I'm about to negotiate with the boss, and when we sell it, our problem will be solved." Don't worry, ah. ”

There was another sound outside, which sounded a little weird, but it was indeed a strange sound.

Wen Zhen looked back at the tall and thin man.

The man clasped his palms together and said with a smile: "In this case, all of them are sold?" ”

Wen Zhen was taken aback, and hurriedly denied: "As far as the outside is concerned, I don't sell it." ”

"Of course I don't dare to think about the girl." The man looked pleasant and used polite words.

Wen Zhen didn't see his face, "You don't want to sell it if you want to."

"In that case, the girl will call Brother Ling in." The man smiled and praised, "The girl is really well-maintained." ”

Wen Zhen thought about how to say this, but he didn't care about pursuing it at the moment, and waved his hand and said: "Let's settle the money first, and I'll leave, and the rest will be handed over to the boss." She covered her face and sighed faintly, "I can't bear it after all, and I don't have the face to see my brother, where is the back door of your house......

The man smiled clearly, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he threw a bag of tips, and said: "I have a public price here, buy a Qing Qi'er ranging from ten taels to one hundred taels, so that the younger brother looks good, so I will give you one hundred taels, you take the money, turn left and then turn left to go out, remember not to turn right." Let's leave as soon as possible, there are distinguished guests in the building today, but don't bump into others. ”

It seems that Yi Renli's appearance is really very popular here, and it is enough to meet the standard of "excellent".

The boss actually took the initiative to give the highest price!

Wen Zhen held the silver and smiled more and more sweetly.

"Great!"
