Chapter 65: The Mysterious Courtyard

"Won't it?" Zhu Lei asked with some disbelief, "The strength of the Huang family is so strong, what else can they be afraid of?" ”

Nan Nan said, "This is not necessarily, a mountain is higher than a mountain."

No matter how strong the Huang family is, there must be more powerful forces than them. ”

She had some truth in what she said.

Nan Nan continued, "My colleague said that the Huang family is a little short of manpower, and they are recruiting security guards to help.

We can just take advantage of this opportunity to sneak in. ”

Mei Lin was worried that he couldn't figure out the matter of the golden cicada wood.

Hearing Nan Nan's words, he seemed to see a glimmer of hope

Tell her, "Let's get in as quickly as possible." ”

Zhu Lei hurriedly waved his hand and said, "You can do whatever you want, but don't take me with you."

Bring you here, and my task will be accomplished.

I've been out for a few days, and when it's done, we'll go back together. ”

Mei Lin hadn't intended to involve him in the first place.

Nan Nan asked Zhu Lei, "Do you have anything to do with the Huang family?"

Why else are you so afraid of them? ”

Zhu Lei grinned disdainfully and said, "Hmph, I've traveled all over the world, and I haven't been afraid of anyone!"

I'm a person who prefers to be quiet, and I don't bother to participate in things that are not beneficial. ”

Seeing his blushing face and thick neck, Nan Nan sneered and didn't speak again.

Mei Lin and Nan Nan came out of the hotel and took a taxi directly to the gate of the Huang family.

The Huang family is located in the center of Lindong City, covering an area of dozens of acres.

In this position, it is really unimaginable.

Compared with the four major families in the provincial capital, the strength of the Huang family is much stronger.

At the gate stood several sturdy men, watching passers-by warily.

There was a table next to the door, and behind it sat a man in his thirties.

There was a piece of red paper on the table, with the words "recruiting security guards" written on it.

Seeing Mei Lin standing in front of the table, the man asked, brother, are you interested?

Mei Lin pretended to be cowardly and said, I want to find a job.

The man quickly stood up and said, "Brother, you've found the right place.

In Lindong City, the treatment of our Huang family is the best.

Why don't you try it for a while? ”

I didn't expect him to be so enthusiastic, it seems that no one has applied for it for a long time.

The locals knew that something had happened to the Huang family, so they hid far away, let alone come to help them.

The man introduced himself and said that his surname was Li and he was the captain of the security guard, and coaxed and persuaded Mei Lin to sign the contract.

Mei Lin walked to the side with Nan Nan and whispered to her, "You go back to the hotel first and wait for the news, in case something happens."

It's okay to take it on. ”

Hearing Mei Lin's words, Nan Nan nodded and went back to the hotel.

Captain Li led Mei Lin into the courtyard.

The courtyard of the Huang family is very open, and it is simply a small village.

As soon as you enter the door, there is a large square, and at the end of the square, there is a small three-story pink building, which is where the Huang family works.

Behind the small building, there are neat rows of courtyards.

Most of the direct descendants of the Huang family live in the courtyard.

The courtyard was full of people and very lively.

Captain Li led Mei Lin into a courtyard at the back, where all the security guards lived.

Most of the so-called security guards are here to do chores.

I do everything except the janitor.

Unlike the Huang family's subordinates, their status is very low.

Captain Li introduced Mei Lin to a small-eyed young man about his age.

The young man's name was Shao Wen.

Captain Li said to Shao Wen, you take him to the West Courtyard to help.

Shao Wen squinted his eyes and looked at Mei Lin, he had been in the Huang family for a while, and he didn't look down on this newcomer.

Mei Lin hurriedly took out a box of cigarettes and distributed them to the people present.

And tell them, please take care of them in the future.

Shao Wen took the cigarette, put it under his nose and sniffed it, then wet the cigarette with his tongue and then put it in his mouth.

Mei Lin hurriedly helped him light his cigarette.

Shao Wen squinted his eyes, took a puff of cigarette, and said, Well, this cigarette is not bad, follow me in the future, there will be no loss.

Hearing his words, Mei Lin almost laughed out loud.

This guy is better at posing than Director Han.

Mei Lin hurriedly said, if there is anything, you can just tell me.

Shao Wen nodded.

Captain Li went out to work, and Shao Wen found an empty bed for Mei Lin to live in.

After dark, Shao Wen beckoned Mei Lin and said, It's our turn to work.

Mei Lin had been lying on the bed to recuperate, and when she heard his words, she quickly sat up.

Shao Wen had already come out of the room and into the courtyard.

As they passed through the square, they found that there were many people standing around the square.

They were all dressed in black, vigilantly watching every movement around them.

Shao Wen said in a low voice, "They are all Huang Chengjiang's subordinates, and they are majestic."

Don't provoke them, see them walking around the road, and save them trouble. ”

The houses were brightly lit, and from time to time a man in black walked in front of him.

They all looked hurried, and their expressions were very serious.

Although there were many people, they could not hear the voice.

Shao Wen led the way in front, and the further he went, the more remote it became, and few people came, except for the occasional patrolman passing by.

Near the fence, there is a separate courtyard.

Shao Wen said that our job is to help Mr. Zhu work.

Mei Lin followed him into the courtyard.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Mei Lin smelled a very familiar smell.

He could tell at once that it was the smell of the elixir.

The yard was spotlessly cleaned, and Mei Lin and Shao Wen were guarding the gate of the yard.

There were people in the courtyard who were busy, and they knew Shao Wen very well, and they joked with him very easily.

There was a creaking sound in the nearby storeroom, and someone was doing carpentry work inside.

They first split the wood into planks, then cut it into pieces, and then made it into palm-sized wooden boxes.

The wooden box is painted with black and red lacquer, and it is made in an antique style.

On the wooden shelves at the door of the room, there were already many wooden boxes of those kinds.

Mei Lin asked Shao Wen in a low voice, what are those wooden boxes for?

Shao Wen said very seriously, "In the Huang family, try not to inquire about things that have nothing to do with you, otherwise you will get into trouble."

And do you see that courtyard in the corner?

Don't go near that compound, you'll be killed.

I heard that there were two new security guards who went there and didn't see anyone alive or dead. ”

During the day, when Mei Lin passed by the gate of the courtyard, he paid attention to it.

It was a large compound surrounded by a gray courtyard wall.

Because the courtyard wall is very high, you can't see the situation inside.

The two of them were chatting when they heard someone in the house shouting, bring the wooden box!

Hearing the shout, Shao Wen hurriedly ran into the warehouse, took a wooden box and entered the room.

It took more than ten minutes before he walked out of the room with the wooden box in both hands.

His expression was very solemn, and he was very careful with every step.

"You come with me." Shao Wen said to Mei Lin.

Mei Lin followed him, and Shao Wen walked along the path at the door.

In front of the door of a small gray building on the second floor, two men dressed in black stood guard there.

Seeing Shao Wen coming, one of them joked with him, "You're quite busy, if you break Mr. Zhu's things."

Mr. Zhu will kill you! ”

Shao Wen laughed and said, you guys are really joking, how can I break it?

The two men got out of the way, Shao Wen asked Mei Lin to wait for him outside, and then stepped inside.

Ten minutes later, Shao Wen came out of it.

The man in black looked at Mei Lin Nunu and asked Shao Wen, is this kid a newcomer?

Shao Wen nodded at him and quietly made a silent gesture.

Looking at their mysterious appearance, Mei Lin couldn't figure out what the hell they were doing.

Shao Wen and Mei Lin returned to the courtyard and continued to wait at the door.

Every hour or so, Shao Wen would carefully take out a wooden box and send it to the small building.

It wasn't until dawn that Shao Wen yawned and sent the last wooden box over.

At this time, the lights in the room were also turned off.

Shao Wen said, Mr. Zhu is sleeping, we will go back to rest and come back to work at night.

Mei Lin has always been curious about what is in the wooden box.

He never asked Shao Wen again.

Shao Wen was tight-lipped and would definitely not tell him.

He and Shao Wen basically slept in the dormitory during the day and went to deliver wooden boxes at night.

During this period, Mei Lin called Nan Nan several times.

Nan Nan was also very worried about him, and when she heard him say that nothing had happened here, Nan Nan was relieved.

Four or five days have passed, and Mei Lin has not heard any clues about the golden cicada, and he is a little anxious.

That night, Mei Lin and Shao Wen went to the door to guard as usual.

Shao Wen has a good heart, and the only drawback is that he likes foxes and fake tigers.

There are not many wooden boxes tonight, and I used to deliver wooden boxes more than a dozen times a day.

Today is different, most of the time I have only sent a few of them, as if something is wrong.

Shao Wen also felt that something was wrong, and often poked his head out to look into the room.

Mei Lin could only see a figure swaying back and forth in the room.

But I have never seen what Mr. Zhu looks like.
