was asked by the master like this, Yao Yuran was slightly stunned, usually the master would not ask such a stupid question, it has always been what she says, the master will do what she wants, today's master is a little strange.

Yao Yuran raised his eyes and said with a smile: "Of course I want to plant these seeds, you see, these mustard greens we plant, although they can be made into sauerkraut, but the production period is too long, and they have to be transported to the restaurant to sell, if I can grow some pumpkins, I will make some pumpkin pies, presumably the people of Micheng must be easier to accept." ”

"Oh." Li Zhong just answered.

"You'll help me with that, then, won't you?" Yao Yuran looked at Li Zhong with expectant eyes, whether he could make pumpkin pie or not depended on him.

"That's fine, I'll go first." Li Zhong said indifferently, and then turned around and left the vegetable field.

Yao Yuran looked at Li Zhong's faltering back, and felt more and more strange. On weekdays, Master Li is always willing to be loyal to Yao Yuran's agricultural development path, but today's Master Li doesn't seem to be as attentive to Yao Yuran's words as before.

Could it be that today's Master Li is not the previous Master Li? Or maybe something happened to Master Li's family? Yao Yuran was full of worries about Master Li, and she didn't care about watering the vegetable seedlings in the field, so she ran to the house to find Zhao Hengzhi in a panic.

"Husband, get up! The sun is shining on the buttocks! Yao Yuran roared loudly while tearing open Zhao Hengzhi's quilt vigorously.

Zhao Hengzhi only felt that his eyelids were heavy, he rubbed his eyes, and muttered: "Kiss the lady, I'm so sleepy, you let me sleep more, okay?" ”

"No, listen to me, Master Li's family may have encountered something tragic, I think he is a little weird today, we have to find a way to help him......" Yao Yuran said as he helped Zhao Hengzhi up and sat up straight.

Zhao Hengzhi reluctantly opened a slit, nodded and agreed: "Since we came to Micheng, he has been helping us without saying a word, if he is in trouble, we have to help, we have to help......

"Then you say, could he be threatened by the people of the Wang family again? After all, he is from Micheng, and if he helps outsiders to deal with the head snake of Micheng, he will definitely be hostile. Yao Yuran unfolded her brain hole and speculated boldly.

A glimmer of light flashed in Zhao Heng's eyes, and he said, "If you want me to say, let's stop guessing, let's go and ask and see." ”

Yao Yuran bowed slightly, she and Zhao Heng found Li Zhong together. Li Zhong was sweeping the floor in the courtyard with a broom, and Yao Yuran and Zhao Hengzhi were shocked when they saw that their master was sweeping the floor. You must know that the master has never held a broom before, and when Zhao Hengzhi and the others first came to the yamen, the spider silk crawled all over the wall, and even the dust was stacked with a thick layer.

But today the sun is coming out in the west, the sow will go up the tree, and the master will sweep the floor!

"Master Li, are you in trouble?" Zhao Hengzhi looked at Li Zhong worriedly.

Li Zhong raised his head and glanced at Zhao Hengzhi faintly, but he noticed that there was still Yao Yuran standing next to Zhao Hengzhi. Li Zhong shook his head and said, "No, I didn't encounter any trouble." ”

"Is that your family Fengfeng not giving you living expenses?" Zhao Hengzhi knocked on the side.

"It's not." Li Zhong shook his head again. But the expression on his face was so stiff, it seemed to be a little different from the usual lively little old man.

"Could it be...... You have an incurable disease??? When Zhao Hengzhi thought of this, he felt a pain in his heart, tears came as soon as he said it, he cried and choked up: "Master, you are so good to me, you are closer than your own father, you can't die!" Woo-woo-"

Yao Yuran silently rolled his eyes beside him, how could anyone curse the master to die like this, if she was the master, she would have to die alive.

"I'm not dead yet." Li Zhong picked his head and said coldly, "What are you crying about!" ”

Zhao Hengzhi had no choice but to put away his tears, no matter how much he asked, he couldn't ask anything, Zhao Hengzhi just wanted to give up, he spread his hands to Yao Yuran, and said: "Lady, the master is good, let's not worry about it......"

Yao Yuran still vaguely felt uneasy, and she pulled Zhao Hengzhi to a remote corner on the side.

At that time, Yao Yuran attached to Zhao Hengzhi's ear and whispered: "Husband, in my opinion, the master must have a bitterness in his heart to confide. It's better to stay with the master in this way to prevent him from committing suicide without thinking about it. ”

Yao Yuran also has an extra heart, for fear that the master will be depressed and short-sighted.

"Oh—that's fine, too." Zhao Hengzhi agrees with Yao Yuran's statement, after all, Li Zhong is old, and it is autumn, people are old, and it is very easy to have that kind of sad feelings, and someone has to watch it.

"Okay, then it's decided, I'll go to the vegetable field in the mountain behind the yamen and water the vegetable seedlings a little." Yao Yuran said, then turned around and walked in the direction of the back mountain.

In the courtyard, only two people, Master Li Zhong and Zhao Hengzhi, remained. Zhao Hengzhi looked at the fallen leaves in this place, while Li Zhong was still holding the broom in his hand, sweeping the withered yellow leaves on the ground again and again.

It's rare that the master is so diligent today, so he will accompany him for a while, Zhao Hengzhi thought, and also ran to the kitchen to get another broom, and he accompanied Li Zhong to sweep the fallen leaves with great interest.

Suddenly, a cold wind blew, and Zhao Hengzhi felt a cold chill. He looked up sharply, and found that the master had taken out a dagger with silver light from his arms.

"Huh? Master, don't think about committing suicide, life is so beautiful, people are inherently dead, and there is no need to commit suicide! Zhao Heng sincerely persuaded Li Zhong, hoping that he could put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha on the spot.

However, Zhao Hengzhi's miscalculation, that Li Zhong's dagger was not used to kill himself, but wanted to assassinate him!

The dagger flashed with a cold silver light, like a gust of wind, stabbing towards Zhao Hengzhi.

"Brother Hengzhi be careful!" A crisp female voice sounded behind Zhao Hengzhi, and Ye Junjun happened to pass by, hurriedly pulled out her soft whip from her waist, and hooked the dagger in time.

"Ahh

The master with the dagger in his hand pounced into the air, but he was still unwilling, and quickly pulled the dagger in his hand back from Ye Junjun's soft whip.

"Ho! Master, what are you crazy about? Even your Lord Zhao dare to assassinate you! Ye Junjun's eyebrows twisted slightly, and she glared at Li Zhong incredulously.

You must know that Li Zhong usually treats Zhao Hengzhi as if he were his own son, but today he is like an evil spirit, and he stabs Zhao Hengzhi with a dagger, which is simply appalling.

"He's the one who killed!" Li Zhong's eyes were cold, and he aimed the dagger at Zhao Hengzhi's throat again, and pressed straight up. Zhao Hengzhi hurriedly ran back, lifted the dustpan on the ground, and blocked the front.

And Ye Junjun also flew up and wrapped a soft whip around the master's waist. With a force on her hand, she pulled the master over, and the master stumbled and fell heavily to the ground.

"Damn!" Ye Junjun took it easy, wrapped the leather whip around, and tied the master into a hairy crab.

At that time, such a big movement immediately attracted the onlookers of other people in the yamen. Yao Yuran heard the movement and hurriedly ran over from the back mountain.

I saw that Master Li Zhong was sitting paralyzed on the ground, and his hands and feet were tied by Ye Junjun with a leather whip.

"Uh, I've only been out for a while, what the hell is going on?" Yao Yuran was surprised, and she noticed that Zhao Hengzhi was still holding a dustpan in his hand, and she was trembling.

"Husband, are you okay?" Yao Yuran hurriedly walked over, trying to find a breakthrough from him.

Zhao Hengzhi stretched out his hand and pointed at Master Li tremblingly, what happened just now is still vivid, that person dared to attack him!

Ye Junjun moved lightly, picked up the sharp dagger on the ground, showed it to Yao Yuran, and snorted coldly: "Yuran, this master, I think he was poisoned, and he dared to use the dagger to assassinate Hengzhi's brother." ”

"What? Master wants to kill his husband? This is too unbelievable, isn't it? Yao Yuran heard it in a fog, she wanted to ask Chu Xiao if Chu Xiao, who was well-informed, knew that there was such a thing as Gu poison.

But Yao Yuran turned around, but she made an astonishing discovery, she found that this master's cheeks actually had a thin layer of skin, which was blown up by the wind.

Is it a mask? Yao Yuran's heart was full of doubts, she strode forward, stretched out her hand towards the master's cheek, she pinched the layer of skin on the master's face with her hand, and slowly uncovered it, only to see that under the person's skin, there was actually another face.

Ho! Boy! Under the skin of this person, there is an old woman in her eighties, and there are more wrinkles on her face than Master Li's!

Granny Sun raised her head, her eyes were cold, and said, "Now that it is in your hands, you will be killed or killed, and you will listen to it." ”

Yao Yuran narrowed his eyes, his sharp eyes fell straight on the old woman's face, and asked, "Tell me quickly, who are you?" ”

"I am the famous cold-blooded killer ranked eighth on the rivers and lakes, Granny Sun!" Grandma Sun's self-registration number.

Ye Junjun has also heard of Granny Su's name, Granny Su is not only good at disguise, but also has a unique skill, that is, ventriloquism, as long as it is a voice she has heard, she can write it down, and successfully imitate it, and there are very few people who can recognize it.

It's just that the times are changing, although Granny Sun has disguise and ventriloquism, it's a pity that her martial arts are not good, and Granny Sun can't even beat Ye Junjun, it's really so desolate and desolate.

"Eh, Granny Sun, ranked eighth, that was fifteen years ago, your current ranking, eh, I count, it seems to be one hundred and nine......" Ye Junjun shook his head and sighed bitterly, feeling sorry for Grandma Sun.

"Junjun, you weren't hurt just now, were you?" Chu Xiao hurriedly walked over, his ink-like pupils were full of concern for her.
