Chapter 39: Coincidence
Zhou Yue only felt that in the blink of an eye, the Xu family brothers and sisters were in front of them.
"Master Sun, time is pressing, let's hurry up!" Miss Xu said to Sun Chong, and then rode away.
Sun Chonghe hurriedly followed.
"Zhou Yue."
Li Xu's voice sounded, and Zhou Yue came back to his senses in shock.
Zhou Yue swallowed: "Don't you think it's strange? A female dependant can ride so well. ”
Li Xu said: "Marquis An Yihou is a military general, and it is not surprising that the female relatives in the family can ride and shoot. ”
Zhou Yue nodded, he could accept this statement.
"Let's go," Li Xu commanded, "they are not slow, and we may not be able to catch up." ”
Miss Xu can ride a horse, Zhou Yue finally accepted this fact, but he dared to guarantee that soon Miss Xu would ask for a break.
In fact, he seems to have guessed wrong again.
Miss Xu stretched her waist on the side of the road, stretched her legs, and when he was still able to drink his water, she got on her horse again, ready to continue her journey, without even leaving him a chance to breathe, and as for her fat parrot, it circled above his head like a demonstrative, and kept wagging its tail in the air as it barked.
Zhou Yue once again felt that he had been maliciously hurt.
He hated this bird very much, and wanted to pluck it out as a snack, but thinking that it was the lifeblood of King Jane, he was afraid that King Jian would fight with him.
"It's not far ahead."
A few people slowly stopped, Xu Qinghuan looked around, this place was not close to Feng Xiang, but it was not too far. When the second master Cao was injured and reported to the official, he pointed out to the government that the old man Cao was taken to the northwest by the "murderers" to the northwest road, in fact, the old man Cao went out of the city along the official road in the east, so the yacha checked in the northwest direction for several days and found nothing.
The Cao family thought that everything was under control, and they were concentrating on arranging all this, so naturally they couldn't see the hands stretched out behind their backs.
Qing Huan turned over and dismounted, and accidentally kicked the horse's belly with a soft foot.
The horses were docile and still stood there.
Qing Huan stepped forward and patted the horse's neck gently, which was regarded as an apology to it, this set of ways to get along with the horse was taught to her by a female dependent of the Li family, and she subconsciously used it, not taking into account that Li Xu was not far away.
In her previous life, she followed Li Xu around, and she had to learn to ride a horse, in case of a battle situation, it would be easier to escape, at least it would not be a burden to Li Xu.
After returning from rebirth, riding a horse has become a natural thing, and she is very skillful in using it, but she forgot that in her previous life, she was polished by wars and bumps, and she was still raised in the boudoir in this life, so she couldn't help but be a little uncomfortable, so something happened.
But thinking about it, she was relieved, just like this riding technique, there were many things in her previous life that she couldn't throw away, so she didn't care anymore, although these things were more or less related to Li Xu, but learning her hands was her ability, and she had paid a lot of money for it, and now she can use it with peace of mind.
Under the sun, the girl smiled brightly, her eyebrows and eyes were bright, and she was full of vitality.
Xu Qing'an protected his sister thoroughly, and Li Xu also kept a sufficient distance from them thoughtfully, but from Li Xu's position, he just had a full view of Miss Xu's dismounting, just like he and Zhou Yue said just now, he was not surprised by Miss Xu's riding skills, after all, everyone has their own strengths.
It wasn't until Miss Xu gently patted the horse's neck twice that he suddenly fell into a memory, because this action was too familiar.
His riding skills were taught by the eldest sister in the Li clan.
After falling off his brother's horse as a child, his father stopped teaching him riding and let him study with peace of mind.
Although he didn't have any words, he kept waiting for an opportunity, and finally the eldest sister went back to her parents' house to visit relatives and brought a jujube red pony.
Riding a woman's horse, he was ashamed of his brothers in the clan.
He just smiled in return, the process was not important, he only cared about the result, the shorter jujube red horse was more suitable for his age, and he would learn to ride faster from this horse.
Three days later, riding his brother's horse, he was done.
Three years later, no one in the clan dared to mention the word "horsemanship" in front of him.
Although he was still unknown compared to his brothers, the elders of the clan only knew him as the ninth, and rarely talked about him.
He didn't care, those vain words of praise were useless, so why waste time dealing with them.
What he wanted was always clear in his heart.
The living are fearless, let it go, even if there is no way to the sky.
Li Xu retracted his gaze, these actions were not owned by the eldest sister alone, they should just be a coincidence.
……
Master Cao walked very hard step by step, and the sweat had soaked through his clothes, but he couldn't stop.
A door opened, and the concierge looked at Master Cao in a little stunned, but the old family who rushed over recognized it: "Master, you are here." ”
This ready-to-wear shop is not big and inconspicuous in the city, and the mother-in-law of the family takes her daughter-in-law to make some ordinary dresses, and the business is enough for the family to make ends meet.
The villagers in the vicinity only knew that they had done things for the big families in the past, and saved some money to buy this yard, and they never mentioned which one the previous owner was.
From the moment the old family saw Master Cao, they knew that what the Cao family had ordered them to do was about to land, and it was the old man's intention that they moved here to live, and the old man just told them to guard this courtyard, why did this happen, they wouldn't ask, because this kind of thing didn't do them any good.
Master Cao led someone into the door, he pursed his lips and his face was pale, which startled the old family, and he was about to step forward to ask the reason.
Master Cao instructed: "I have prepared the silver for you, you first move to another place to live for a while, I will also leave this yard to you, and you will sell it if you want to demolish it in the future, but you must come back after a year and a half to dispose of it." ”
The old family responded, did not dare to delay, and immediately packed up their things and left the house.
There were no others in the courtyard, and Master Cao looked at the people behind him: "It's buried under the north house, you just dig it," he said with a trill, "We said before, you are only for those things, and you won't kill me." ”
"Don't worry," said one of them, laughing, "we'll do whatever you've said." ”
After a while, the north house began to "ding, ding, ding", and Master Cao sat on the steps like a force, all of which gave him a feeling of trance.
He never expected this to be the result, no matter who calculated him, he didn't want to investigate it, he just wanted to be able to return to the Cao family alive.
I don't know how long it took, but finally someone shouted: "There's something, it's here." ”
Master Cao's heart tightened.
He hoped that they would dig up the money sooner, but he was also afraid that they would get it, for he was afraid that they would not let him go as agreed.
In case they kill the killer, he will disappear cleanly like Zhao Shan back then.
He didn't want to die yet.
"It's silver." Someone exclaimed.
Immediately after that, a few people came out of the house, and one of them came to Master Cao's side.
"It's all true." The man made no secret of his smug expression.
Master Cao nodded hurriedly, and was about to speak, when something was stuffed into his mouth, so that he could no longer make any sound.
Then a rope came from behind and wrapped around his neck.
Master Cao's brain "buzzed" for a moment, and it was blank, as if he had forgotten about the struggle, and just opened his eyes wide in horror.
They found something and were ready to kill him.
Tears trickled down the corners of his eyes.
After trembling for so many days, I still have to die in the end.
"It's better to strangle the matter, you have to use a dagger to open the person, it's really troublesome, blood must be splashed everywhere, prepare water, I will wash my body in a while."
As he spoke, the man drew his blade and pressed his hand on Master Cao's shoulder.
Master Cao trembled because of fear, he also killed Zhao Shan like this back then, as if he was slaughtering a livestock, and blood sprayed his face with a knife, which did not make him afraid, but brought him a feeling of excitement.
Now another person is going to get this pleasure from him too.
The cold blade was in his throat, and Master Cao already felt that his skin was being cut by a sharp weapon.
……
Outside the courtyard, there was a man standing there.
Hearing the faint movement, he raised his head with satisfaction, a look of relief appeared on his face, and after tossing for so long, he finally got his wish.
"Why don't you go in and see your money?"
A familiar voice came, and the man couldn't help but stiffen his back, and turned around to see Xu Qing'an.
"Second uncle," Xu Qingan looked at Second Master Xu with a smile on his face, "I didn't expect us to meet here, it's really a coincidence." ”
