Chapter Ninety-Four: Call Me Brother
At this moment, the feeling on their bodies is no longer an itch, but a heart-rending pain.
Several people felt embarrassed, they also wanted to be loyal to Mu Fan immediately, but how could they completely change their inner thoughts at this time.
There was no choice but to force himself to separate himself from the pain, thinking hard about the bad things that his previous master had done to them, in order to forget them as soon as possible.
But after all, they have followed their master for many years, how can they say that they will forget?
But if you can't forget them, the pain won't get rid of it.
Someone couldn't help it, so he "bumped" and crashed to death on the wall.
Seeing that some people died, the remaining few people were also shaken, and felt that if they continued like this, they would not live long, and it was better to die directly.
So I saw these people either banging their heads on the edge of the bed, or biting their tongues and committing suicide, or following the example of the previous person and hitting the wall, in short, they just didn't want to live.
But there are also some who are really reluctant to die, so they can only grit their teeth and want to push through.
The sound of these ghosts crying wolves actually reached the ears of Xia Yan, who was walking in the courtyard, through the courtyard wall.
"Anzhi, listen, I seem to hear someone crying, and there is more than one person." Xia Yan frowned, "On this big night, who is doing the funeral at home?" ”
"Miss, why didn't Anzhi hear it?" Anzhi pretended to be pretending to prick up her ears and listened, "It's really not, you must have heard it wrong." ”
"No, you can listen carefully."
"Miss, you also said that it was a big night." An Zhi held Xia Yan's arm, "It's not early, it's time for you to sleep." Let's go back, Tinglan must have already made the bed and is waiting to comb your hair. ”
"But I always feel a little unsure." Xia Yan touched his heart, "It seems that someone is staring at me." ”
"Miss, you're thinking too much." An Zhi's gaze swept around, "The slave assures you that there is absolutely no one else here. What's more, Young Master Xia Huai and Mu Gongzi are still at home here, if someone is really there, they will definitely be able to find out. ”
It's not that Anzhi is big, but this yard has long been surrounded by secret guards, let alone people, even a cat doesn't want to come in.
She looked around, and could only feel the ubiquitous guards on the roofs and eaves, and there was no sign of outsiders.
"Okay, go back to the house, I hope I'm thinking too much."
"Hey." An Zhi saluted and helped Xia Yan to walk towards the house.
The two of them walked forward slowly, but they didn't notice that in the shadow of the corridor they passed, there was a man in black standing, staring intently at Xia Yan.
Xia Yan seemed to be aware of it, and stopped to look there, but only saw darkness.
"Anzhi, there seems to be a person standing there."
"Miss, no." An Zhi asked, looking at the place she pointed, "Didn't we just pass by there, no one." ”
"That might be dazzling, go back."
……
After a night of tossing, only three of the seven spies that were originally caught.
"It's very good, being able to survive the pain of the Heart Devouring Pill shows that a few people are able to judge the situation." No. 1 smiled with satisfaction, "From now on, a few of them are His Highness's people." But don't forget, if you betray in the future, this pain will come again. ”
Number One clapped his hands, and three guards took some medicine and clothes and pushed the door in.
After pulling the dead four people out to destroy the corpses, he gave some medicine to the three surviving people, urged them to change their clothes, and led a few people back to Mu Fan's house.
"The slave thanked His Highness for not killing." Seeing Mu Fan, several people knelt down on the spot, as if they had seen a fairy, their eyes were full of piety, and they kept kowtowing to thank them.
"Princess." Mu Fan looked at one of them in surprise, "I really didn't expect you to be alive." ”
"Your Highness, without your order, the minions will not dare to die." Wang Gonggong's expression was serious, his eyes were clear, there was no trace of panic, and he looked like Mu Fan with admiration, "This life of the slave belongs to His Royal Highness, as long as you need it, the slave will be the liver and brain." ”
"Hmm." Mu Fan felt very satisfied, these people's self-brainwashing skills were still good, but overnight, they completely forgot about their former master.
This only shows that they are people who are cold by nature.
But what does it have to do with him, what he wants is not the loyalty of these people, but simply to control them.
"Your Highness." No. 1 stepped forward and saluted, "What a coincidence, among the remaining three people, the queen, the Guogong Mansion, and the Shangshu Mansion are one in each family." ”
"Hmm." Mu Fan narrowed his eyes, "This saves a lot of trouble." ”
"Alright." He waved his hand, "You all know what to do, go ahead." ”
"Yes, the minions are retired."
Seeing that everyone was retreating, Mu Fan picked up the teacup in a rare leisurely manner, and was about to drink water, but heard An Zhi's anxious voice sound.
"Mu Gongzi, Anzhi has something urgent to see."
"Come in."
"Your Highness!" When Anzhi entered the house, she knelt down with a "poof", "Miss is gone." ”
"Smack!" A crisp breaking sound sounded, and Mu Fan no longer had a teacup in his hand, but he still maintained the posture of holding a teacup, "How is it possible!" ”
"Your Highness!" Anzhi almost crawled on the ground, "Just now Miss took me and Tinglan for a walk in the village, but she walked well, but she disappeared in the blink of an eye." We have searched the vicinity, but there is no trace, so we have no choice but to ask His Highness for help. ”
"I can't even take good care of my master." Mu Fan's brows tightened, "What do you want!" ”
"Your Highness!" An Zhi's head was lowered, "When we find Miss, Tinglan and I will confess." ”
Time was pressing, and Mu Fan didn't have the time to cure their crimes, so he took a deep breath and said, "Tell me about the situation in detail." ”
"At that time, Tinglan and I were with Miss left and right, but we didn't want to suddenly hear some strange sounds from all directions, we just turned our heads to look, and when we turned back, Miss ...... The young lady was gone. ”
"Strange sounds?"
"Yes, Anzhi has never heard such a voice. Like the wind, like crying, but if you listen carefully, it looks like a song. ”
"What does this have to do with Yan's disappearance?" Mu Fan clenched his fists and stood up anxiously, "Take me to the place where she disappeared." ”
Anzhi responded and took Mu Fan all the way, and after a while, he arrived at the small bamboo forest where Xia Yan was missing.
"Your Highness." Seeing Mu Fan, Tinglan knelt down and saluted, "The slave is guilty." ”
Mu Fan was anxious in his heart, and he didn't care about other people's thoughts at all.
He walked around the bamboo forest, but he didn't find any clues, so he could only suppress the worry and uneasiness in his heart, and said to Zhi Tinglan on the other side: "Go...... Go tell One, and let him send a secret guard to find it! ”
"Yes."
The two of them were about to retreat, but they heard Mu Fan take a deep breath and say, "Leave the matter of finding someone to me, you two go back for the time being, and pretend that you don't know anything." If Aunt Yan and Xia Huai ask, you can ...... Let's just say that I took Ah Yan out to play. ”
"Yes."
When the two retreated, Mu Fan clenched his fists and his face was gloomy.
can take people away under the noses of Anzhi and Tinglan, and he must not be an idle person.
But he didn't care who captured Xia Yan, if he found that person, he would definitely let him taste all the pain in the world.
At this time, Xia Yan didn't know that Mu Fan was crazy because of her disappearance, and even if he knew, he might not care much.
Because at this moment, her attention was all attracted by the young man in front of her.
This man is dressed as a Confucian student, with a handsome face and a dusty temperament.
He carried a thin sword that did not look like an ordinary product behind him, and a large wine gourd hung from his waist.
Although it was the first time we met, it was like an old friend who had known each other for many years, giving people a sense of peace and affection.
"Uncle, did you save me?" Xia Yan smiled, "Yan'er, thank you Uncle for saving your life." ”
She clearly remembered that she took An Zhi and Tinglan for a walk in the bamboo forest, but suddenly it was dark in front of her eyes, and she lost consciousness.
When she awoke again, she found herself lying in a strange room, and in front of her stood the young man.
It wasn't that she didn't think that she was taken captive by this person, but when she saw the person's appearance, she didn't have that idea.
No matter how you look at it, this person has an extremely kind and good face, how could he do anything about abducting and selling girls.
Hearing Xia Yan's question, the man smiled slightly and said, "Girl, you really thank the wrong person." Far from saving you, I am the culprit for abducting you. ”
"Huh?" Xia Yan opened his mouth in surprise, but he didn't know what to say.
This is really unexpected by her, how can anyone admit that they have done bad things and admit it so simply?
"What, that's surprising? You're really good at it. Suddenly, the man's face changed, and he took out the thin sword and put it against Xia Yan's neck, murderous, "I hate it when people call me uncle the most in my life." Girl, I think you're tired of life. ”
Xia Yan, who was pointed at with a sword for the first time, didn't feel much scared as if he lacked heart, this good face really made him feel a little scared.
I saw her gently push away the thin sword in front of her, looked at the person mischievously, and smiled: "Then what should I call you?" ”
When the man saw that his sword was pushed away, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously, and when he saw her hippie smiling face, he couldn't help but cover his forehead and say, "Call brother." ”
"Brother?" Xia Yan held back the smile in his heart, "May I ask you Guigeng this year?" ”
"Eight out of twenty."
"Aren't you older than my mother?" Xia Yan couldn't help it, and laughed heartily, "According to her age, she should call you brother." Didn't you take advantage of you by asking me to shout like this? If you see my mother one day, do you want to call her an aunt? Hahahaha......"
"You ......" the man re-sheathed his sword and snorted angrily, "What a system! ”
"Huh?"
Before Xia Yan could react, he heard the man say again: "Only villains and women are difficult to raise, I don't care about you, a girl who doesn't know right from wrong." ”
As he spoke, there was a "grunt" sound.
Xia Yan couldn't help blushing, covered her stomach and said, "Uncle, I'm hungry, do you have food here?" ”
"A gentleman is far away from cooking." The man showed a disgusted expression, "If you want to eat, make your own." ”
