Chapter 410: The Unparalleled Spectrum (18)
A hundred miles is as big as it grows, not to mention such an active girl, even a shy girl, he has never seen a few, and he instantly blushed.
"You're kidding!"
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he instinctively got up and took a step back.
Mink Ruyi laughed, "What are you hiding, I can eat you." β
She rubbed her stomach again, "But if I don't have sauce elbow and plum wine, I'm afraid I'm going to eat people." β
"You...... Really eaten people? β
Mink Ruyi looked Baili Yiru up and down, and licked his lips again, "You smell good." β
Baili Yiru almost shot to the door, "I, I, I...... I'll buy you something to eat. β
This is a small town inn located at the junction of desert and grassland, which has reached the border of the country, and further north, both people and animals will be ruthlessly swallowed by the yellow sand.
There is an inn, a wine shop, a medical center, a vast horse farm, a dozen families, and that's it.
During the eight days that Mink Ruyi was in a coma, Baili came with her day and night, and they had just settled in the town for a day.
Such a place certainly won't have delicious sauce elbows and plum wine.
The sand here is more sharp than the yellow sand in the wind, a jar of wine makes an altar of yellow sand, and after drinking a sip, you can't tell whether the stinging pain in your throat is spicy or sheath.
The owner of the liquor store also has a terrible skill in making meat, and the dried hard beef and mutton are thrown directly into the fire pit and roasted, and I don't know what the heat is, whether it is baked or not cooked.
When the boss is in a good mood, he takes out a piece, throws it on the board, chops it a few times, and pulls it aside for sale.
With such rough food, how can Mink Ruyi, who has just recovered from a serious illness, stand it?
But as soon as she thought that she might have even eaten human flesh, Baili Yiru put his mind at ease, first bought a jar of wine, and took out an extra piece of silver, wanting to choose a piece of orange meat with better color from the fire pit.
Who would have thought, the boss was still impatient, and slapped Baili Yiru's hand as if he handed over money, "What so much?" Love to buy or not to buy! β
Baili is the first time he has seen such a bullish boss. Probably the wine shop has been unpatronized all year round, and the arrival of Baili Yiru has disturbed the cleanliness of the boss, so it will be so unpopular.
He had no choice but to take a piece of black meat and hurried out the door.
Blame! The people here are weird!
But he had to come here again, because the man he was going to kill was here.
The mysterious shadow called him, and he came, but he didn't know anything about the person he was going to kill.
"When you get to the place, I will naturally go to you and tell you the ins and outs." So said the dark shadow.
"Okay."
Baili felt that since he owed the black shadow two lives, his own, plus Mink Ruyi's. Whether or not he ends up helping the Black Shadow kill someone, at least listen to him at this point.
"By the way, do you like Mink Ruyi?"
"It's not annoying."
The black shadow smiled rarely, "Then you shouldn't take her with you, what you have to do is much more dangerous than you think." β
At this moment, Baili had just come out of the wine shop, and was blocked by a black shadow.
"You brought her with you."
"She's poisoned and unconscious, and I can't just leave her behind."
"Really?" The black shadow crossed her arms in the wide cloak, "Who doesn't know that she is from the Wu family, you can throw her back to the Wu family." β
Baili Yiru bowed his head and was silent, and the black shadow continued: "It's okay, let her know...... It's good. β
Baili Yiru breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Can you tell me who I want to kill now?" β
"Of course. You should know why your father was famous back then, and why Baili Villa was terrifying. β
"My father single-handedly defeated the Tongpylor, and everyone in the rivers and lakes knows about it, and I am naturally no exception."
"Do you know that before that, your father was also a pylorus?"
"Impossible!" Baili straightened his neck and stared at the black shadow unconvinced, "You are talking nonsense!" β
"He is not only the one who leads to the pylorus, but even the one who leads to the pylorus is the one he created.
Otherwise, why didn't he keep silent about the events of that year? Because he can't mention it, in the eyes of outsiders, it will be his biggest stain.
What people don't know is that the Tongpylor created by your father is not a cult for the sake of trouble.
At that time, it was just an ordinary gang, with a way to make money, and a group of masters, no different from Dongting Dock.
It eventually became that fearsome gang because of the ...... of some people led by the Wu family in Jiangnan."
"You mean, the Wu family, the richest man in Jiangnan?"
"Could it be that there are other Wu families in Jiangnan?"
"How could they have anything to do with the pylorus?"
"They were the ones who founded Tongpylori with your father, and from the very beginning, the Wu family was responsible for making money.
It's a good person, it's hard to calm down, the Wu family and his wife have a great ability to make money, but they can pass through the pylorus, where can they accommodate those two people.
They secretly spent a lot of money to buy off some outlaws with strong martial arts, specializing in murder.
The people who were slain, either with their wealth or their own property, killed them and their wealth and business went to the pylorus.
With the no-capital trade, the money is earned, and there are more outlaws in the income gang.
It wasn't until the Wu family and his wife planned to kill your father and take the position of the helper himself that your father woke up from a big dream. Fortunately, he was strong in martial arts, so he fought his way out.
Tongpylori has since been disbanded.
Although your father killed the Wu couple, he couldn't bear to attack one of their children.
The children, especially the girls, inherited the Wu family's talent for business, started from scratch, and made the Wu family a down payment in Jiangnan within a few years. β
"But I heard that the Wu family only has two sons."
"Isn't a girl called a son? Besides, she's a businessman, and it's inconvenient to be a woman......"
"So, you're telling me to kill her?"
"Yes."
"Even if her family has some grievances with my family, she has already paid for it with her life, besides, why should the grievances of the previous generation continue to us......"
"If all the people of the world think like you, the world will be at peace. Unfortunately, you don't want to deal with them, but they want to seek revenge on your family. β
"Oh?"
"In their eyes, your father is the enemy who killed his father, how can you not repay such a deep hatred of blood and hatred? One of the sisters and brothers of the Wu family is in business and the other is practicing martial arts, so Wu Cuo is ranked fifth on "Wushuang Spectrum", you won't know it. β
"Of course I know."
"He practiced martial arts hard just to seek revenge on your family."
"But he won't challenge my family in the future."
"That's because he knows that even if he is on the Wushuang spectrum, he is not your father's opponent, so he thought of another way."
"What's the method?"
The black shadow smiled, "Your father can be said to be a martial arts wizard, but you have mediocre qualifications, don't you think it's strange?" β
"This ......"
"Because you were young, Grand Prince Wu once deliberately sent someone to plot against you, so that you were seriously injured, your meridians were broken, and your talent was wasted. Your father has worked you all these years, but in the end it was in vain, even Yan Ruyu, the hairy boy, dared to make you ugly in public. β
"No, he really understands me!"
"If I really understand you, I won't go to your house to steal art, and then you will harm your father."
"I don't believe it!"
"He has already gone to your house to apprentice to your father, don't forget, Yan Ruyu is Wu Cuo's friend, and when he succeeds in his studies, he will join forces with Wu Cuo to help him take revenge."
Baili Yiru hesitated: "But as far as I know, it was TonghumenβTongpylorian, who reorganized itβwho captured Wu Cuo, and Yan Ruyu came to apprentice to my father in order to save him." β
"Who can prove that the pylorus is back in the world?"
"This ......"
"Only Yan Ruyu said so, and only your father would not hesitate to believe it, thinking that he was afraid of being bitten by a snake once, and afraid of the well rope for ten years, he was very afraid that the pylorus would really resurge."
Baili looked down and thought, he was shaking.
He felt that Yan Ruyu understood himself and was thinking about himself, but the words of the black shadow were so leaky.
"Yes...... The one who wants to seek revenge on my family is not the eldest prince of Wu. β
"Who do you think planned all this? If you want the peace of Baili Mountain Villa, Wu Dagongzi, Wu Cuo, and even Yan Ruyu have to die. β
Baili was silent for a long time, "Your words do make sense." β
This time, the shadow is silent.
"Looks like I'm going to have to kill her." Baili sighed.
"No, it's time to live or die."
"What if I don't?"
"You won't, if you go and kill Master Wu, Mink Ruyi doesn't have to die."
"You're threatening me?"
"Of course, you can also ignore the life or death of that woman, after all, you have saved her several times and do not owe her anything."
Baili Yiru, of course, can't leave her alone. At this moment, he realized that he had unconsciously had a weakness.
Does he like Mink Ruyi?
Like.
Why?
Probably because she's so unique.
Compared with the beautiful little jasper who blushed before she spoke, she is so sharp and unrestrained, and she can be compared with the women in the rivers and lakes, she is so smart and vivid.
Even, when he just bought wine, Baili Yiru had already made up his mind, and as soon as he went back, he would tell Mink Ruyi that he wanted to wander the world with her.
But when he really returned to the inn, there was still the shadow of Mink Ruyi.
The innkeeper told him that as soon as he left with his front foot, Mink Ruyi summoned a majestic white wolf and rode away.
Baili Yiru was very melancholy, but he was only melancholy for a while, and soon thought about it.
Who doesn't know above the rivers and lakes that Mink Ru's whereabouts are uncertain, and those who like her can line up all the way from this desolate town to Guannei, and they are considered old.
Baili smiled bitterly and shook his head.
He has been practicing martial arts all year round and has not mastered the essentials all year round, and he has already tempered his character, and he knows very well that many things in the world are unattainable.
If you can't ask for it, don't force it.
Now, he has a more difficult problem.
Although Mink Ruyi is gone, it doesn't mean that she is safe.
Master Wu, kill or not?
ββββββββββ
The spring breeze is proud.
Most of the spring in the pass has passed, and the summer is gradually getting stronger, and the spring breeze is a little lazy and warm at this moment, which is really the most comfortable time to blow on people.
But if it is outside the gate, the wind will be cold, and it will go straight into the cracks of people's bones, and I don't know how many old people will begin to feel a dull pain in their knees as soon as they hear the sound of the wind.
A carriage was traveling in the cold wind, and along the way, every time it arrived at the Wu family's horse farm, the carriage stopped for three or five days.
The sturdy old man in the car seemed to have a lot of status. Whenever you go to a horse farm, there must be people who treat you with good wine and meat, for fear of the slightest neglect.
The old housekeeper of the Wu family, this is the fortieth year that he has been in charge of the Wu family.
Everyone knows that seeing the old housekeeper is like seeing the owner, and the shopkeepers of the racecourse have to respect the most trusted old man of Wu Dagongzi.
Especially at this juncture, the eldest prince of Wu is dead, Wu Cuo does not know where to go, how to distribute the horse farm industry of the Wu family, and the shopkeeper of each horse factory is naturally making calculations in his heart.
It's just that I don't know whether the old housekeeper came to help or hinder.
Fortunately, after staying outside the vast and sparsely populated area for several years, these horse farm shopkeepers more or less have the upright temper of outsiders.
As soon as the old housekeeper settled down on this day, the shopkeeper of the racecourse at the reception banquet asked tentatively: "I don't know if you are here for the white matter of the eldest prince Wu this time?" β
The old housekeeper didn't sell it, and said directly: "Yes, I came this time for the owner's last wish." β
The shopkeeper of the racecourse looked stunned for a moment, and immediately stood up respectfully and hugged his fist in the southeast direction.
"I really didn't expect that the owner died young, God is jealous of talents, God is jealous of talents."
The old butler seemed to have been sad for a long time, and was not moved at this time.
He pressed his hand against the shopkeeper of the racecourse, and waited for the shopkeeper of the racecourse to sit down again before continuing: "Before leaving, the eldest prince of Wuβno, to be exact, is the Marquis of Duhuan, she already has the title of the emperor himselfβthe Marquis of Duhuan has already made enough plans for everyone. β
"Kejue? Unfortunately, such things outside the body cannot bring people back from the dead. "The shopkeeper of the racecourse doesn't care about the title, he cares more about how the eldest prince Wu plans for everyone.
The old butler naturally understood the little Jiujiu in his heart, and continued: "For a dead person, the title is indeed useless, but for those of us who are alive, this title can cause great trouble, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a disaster of death. β
"Oh?" The shopkeeper leaned forward, "I'm a rough man who can only serve horses, and I have no news outside the gate, and I ask the old butler to make it clear." β
"The title of the Wu family was bought, and it cost 20,000 taels of silver to buy it from the emperor......"
The shopkeeper of the racecourse had understood what the old butler meant, fine beads of sweat appeared on his head, and he knelt on the ground with an ordinary voice, "Please save me!" β
The old housekeeper analyzed: "I thought of a piece, buying a knighthood is a small matter, and the money is exposed, especially when it is exposed to the emperor - you don't know, our emperor has always been ugly."
With 20,000,000 taels of silver in vain, how could he not be tempted by the remaining wealth of the Bai family?
Especially the horse business, in recent years, three days of two shouting war, a war horses have become the most needed thing for the army, if the Wu family's horse business is returned to the imperial court, for the emperor, in one fell swoop to solve the problem of insufficient horses in the army, there is also a way to make money.
The key is how the emperor wants to get the Wu family's horse business.
Is it easy to talk about and negotiate and properly settle you, or is it a holy decree to simply and rudely requisition and receive, or simply kill the Wu family and all the shopkeepers, and take over all the wealth of the Wu family in one fell swoop.
If you want me to say, you should plan for the worst in everything, lest the time come, and you won't know what is going on. β
