Chapter 84: The Nine-Story Building (2)
Yuefu, in a small courtyard, it is obviously daylight at the moment, but the houses in the small courtyard are covered with curtains and block the light, which is quite strange.
"Miss?"
A maid was standing at the door of the bedroom and called timidly, "The hen soup you want has been boiled." ”
Squeaky.
A small crack opened in the bedroom door, and a miserable white hand reached out, fumbling around, and somehow grabbed the maid's arm.
"Miss?"
The maid looked at the dark house and the miserable white arms, and suddenly felt a little frightened.
Her body began to tremble, and even a few drops of the hen soup she was carrying spilled out just on her pale arm.
After brushing it, the arm quickly retracted, "Put the soup at the door, you go back first." ”
A gentle female voice came from inside the door.
"Yes, Miss."
The maid breathed a sigh of relief, hurriedly put the hen soup at the door of the room, and after a salute, left in a hurry, rubbing her somewhat blue arms as she walked.
She didn't notice that a bloodshot pupil suddenly appeared through the crack in the door, staring at her figure closely.
"It's so fragrant, I want to eat it!"
"Nope! Never! ”
Two different voices came faintly from the house, one cold and terrifying, the other gentle and pitiful.
Slowly, the door opened a little more, and a pair of miserable white hands quickly took the hen soup on the ground in.
Bang!
The bedroom door slammed shut, and there was the sound of a beast biting inside.
In a hidden council hall in Yue Fu, a middle-aged man with a long white face and a long beard walked around anxiously.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The more he walked, the more anxious he became, the more angry he became, and he smashed the antique teapot on the table.
"Who is it!! Who the hell kidnapped the Yin Maiden?! ”
Yue Yimou is really anxious now, if he doesn't find the Yin Girl for a day, his own daughter will have to suffer for one more day.
"If I let me know who did it, see if I don't cut you with a thousand knives!!"
………………
Wang Xu slowly opened his eyes, and the rejuvenation energy in his body was a little more refined.
"If it goes on like this, it is estimated that I don't need to be directly promoted by the Yuan Spirit, and I will be able to cultivate the rejuvenation energy to the last level."
He thought to himself that he was very satisfied with the progress so far.
"Brother Wang, you are amazing!"
Su Musha looked at Wang Xu with emotion and finally opened his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh in admiration.
It's not that he hasn't seen anyone who can sleep, but like this, he sleeps for half a day, and when he is still teaching, he sleeps so peacefully, he is really convinced.
Wang Xu sighed, "Brother Su, I have something to do in the afternoon, so I'll go back first, and we'll talk another day when I have time." ”
He arched his hand, then got up directly and walked out, preparing to go down the mountain and return to Binyang City.
The path down the hill from Matsuyama College is lined with greenery on both sides, with bluestone steps at your feet, unknown birds and finches flying in the branches from time to time, and fences on both sides of the path to protect the safety of pedestrians.
In fact, there are no dangerous species on this pine mountain, at most there are some pheasants and other wild beasts, after all, there is a university built nearby, and Binyang City will naturally pay great attention to the safety here.
Wang Xu walked quickly down the hill along the path, and when he passed a corner halfway, he suddenly stopped.
"Fishing boats?"
He climbed over the fence and looked closer, only to see a slender fishing boat floating in a clear stream.
"Strange, how can there be fishing boats here?"
Wang Xu stared intently, "Is it them?" ”
He narrowed his eyes, "No, there's another person, a woman?" ”
Instinctively, he sensed that something was wrong.
"Let's go down the mountain first."
After Wang Xu took one last look at the direction in which the fishing boat was drifting, he turned around and continued to walk down the mountain.
The closer you get to the foot of the mountain, the more dilapidated the fences on both sides become, and from time to time you can see herb pickers searching around the ground.
This is the normal state of Songshan, the peak is full of talented people, the mountain hides kingfishers, and the herb pickers under the forest do not know the spring.
Wang Xu raised his hand and took away the branches blocking the road above his head, jumped over a waterstone stream, and was considered to be out of the mountain gate.
He looked up, and the splendid Binyang City was bathed in sunlight at the moment, which looked very magnificent.
As soon as Wang Xu entered the city, he felt that the atmosphere in the city was a little dignified, and the two government soldiers who were guarding the door just now actually asked to see his guide.
You must know that he is wearing the uniform of Songshan Academy now, generally speaking, anyone with a discerning eye can see it, and besides, he has been in and out of the past six months I don't know how many times, the guards of the city gate should have been familiar with it a long time ago.
Unless...... It's for others to see.
Wang Xu put away the folding fan in his hand, then turned around and walked towards the stall next to him.
"Yo! Prince Wang! As always? ”
As soon as the vendor selling steamed buns saw Wang Xu, he immediately greeted him warmly, this was one of his big customers.
"As usual."
Wang Xu nodded, and then found a place to sit down.
There were also many people sitting around him, eating and chatting.
"Which style are those officials at the city gate today? Why did you suddenly find out someone? ”
"But isn't it, I heard that not to mention us, even those masters have been checked and checked."
"So hard? Evil door. ”
The vendor owner ran over steadily with three large steamed buns and a bowl of egg drop soup, "Wang Gongzi, as usual, one cage of vegetarian and two cages of meat, I will send you a bowl of egg drop soup outside, I wish you a successful season test!" ”
He picked up the sweat towel around his neck and wiped the hot sweat from his head, "Why do you need you to call me." So saying, he was about to go back.
Wang Xu hurriedly grabbed it and asked in a low voice, "What happened in the city today?" How are you doing in the morning? How did it get to now? ”
The vendor owner looked around, leaned into Wang Xu's ear and whispered: "Before dawn this morning, I saw several officials and masters running out of the city gate quickly carrying two shelves covered with white cloths, and it is estimated that something has happened." ”
After he finished speaking, he hurried back, obviously also taboo about it.
Wang Xu's face remained unchanged, and he ate the buns as usual, and he paid attention to the movement on the street while eating.
At this glance, I found that there was something abnormal, and the small vendors who came out early on weekdays were a little taciturn, and some of them obviously had a few traces of worry in the corners of their eyes.
The diners in the stalls also whispered, their eyes glancing in the direction of the government from time to time.
The whole street is obviously much quieter, and it seems a little dead instead of the bustle and vitality of the past.
"Two corpses ......"
Wang Xu knocked on the table, "Could it be that he suddenly found out that he was dead this morning, and the appearance of the death was extremely weird, so he hurriedly carried it out." ”
He looked at the gate again, "Even so, there is no need to block the gate." ”
Originally, the city gate of Binyang was wide open on both sides, but now only a small door has been opened, and it is still strictly checked.
Wang Xu felt a sense of urgency in his heart, he quickly finished eating the buns on the table, and after settling the bill, he took a ride to the antique market again.
