Chapter 69: Gezhi (9)

The advice Ruixi had received from the butler still left him at a loss. The pen %fun %Pavilion left on his own in September www.biquge.info, and it wasn't all weird, he was originally a person from the rivers and lakes, and it became a habit to do it casually. Ruixi didn't know that the housekeeper had sent someone to the ancestral house to inform his parents, and he began to plan, preparing to inform the various treasurers and shareholders to meet to discuss the matter. The difficulty lies in how to move out of a suitable reason, and retreat without provoking more right and wrong. This is also very annoying, Ruixi thinks that he may be opening a mystery that he has no way of knowing, and he is just a tiny speck of dust in the mystery, and by the way, September. The weird thing is who is in charge of it.

Ruixi couldn't find September, but the person sent to his hometown by the housekeeper came back early, and the two of them went together, but only one of them hurried back at the moment. The subordinates threw down the reins at will, crossed the threshold into the main hall in a few steps, and prostrate on the ground to tell Ruixi a news that it was difficult to judge the good luck: the two parents who had always lived in the ancestral house happened to disappear when the two subordinates rushed back to the ancestral house. How to see it, Ruixi is difficult to judge the right and wrong, and he has no time to deduce where the hero has gone in September, he can get up and go out quickly, and the housekeeper immediately teaches people to prepare horses to follow. Ruixi roared away with a few subordinates behind him, and many subordinates who were still whispering in the courtyard were scolded by the housekeeper, asking them to perform their duties, and it was strictly forbidden to go out without making unwarranted speculation. After the butler told everyone to disperse, he looked worriedly at the group of people who seemed to be back to normal again, and I was afraid that what they could do now would not be able to care about the rest. The paper couldn't hold the fire, and the housekeeper began to remember, is this related to the incident that the master told him in his early years?

When he came to the Ke family, the housekeeper was just a beggar who didn't even want to reveal his name. It's just because Ruixi's grandfather saw that you were not a rough person, how did he become a person who was willing to accept the food that came, so he was ashamed, and when he threw himself into the river, he happened to be rescued by Ruixi's grandfather. Ruixi's grandfather saw the young man after grooming, who was dignified and knew Wenmo, so he specially sent him to serve his son. This Ruixi's father was stubborn since he was a child, he didn't study very hard, he had many strange ideas, and most of his leisure time was pestering young servants to tell about his various experiences in foreign business. Since then, the two have gradually become acquainted, almost to the point of not having anything to say. The young master didn't know where to get a printed book, and the records were all strange and unbelievable, and after reading it, he seemed to hesitate again and again, and said something to the servant.

The young master and the servant said that what he had seen was as strange as it was recorded in the book, and that when he was a child, the elders were drinking and talking, and he was playing in the garden with the servants, and when he turned around, he found that the shadow from the window was tall and strange. Curious, the young master said that he quietly pushed open the hall where the elders were, the door was narrow, and he didn't see anyone he knew, and a ball of white flowers came into his eyes. Frightened, the young master fled back to his room, closed the door and hid on the bed. He didn't expect the tall shadow to appear outside the window, which frightened him even more. Soon after he got under the bed, his father's call was heard outside the door, and then his mother arrived. The young master said that he was seriously ill and almost dying, and his family sought medical treatment from far and near, but Lang Zhong didn't know why he didn't say goodbye after the pulse. Fortunately, the strange disease was cured later. After that, the young master found himself in a strange illness, and ran around the house in the middle of the night, sometimes lying on the ground and sometimes standing.

The housekeeper remembered the time he had seen, the young master was churning in the room, screaming continuously, and the strange thing was that after the master found out, no one including the housekeeper was allowed to enter, only the master and the lady could enter. The housekeeper knew the strangeness of this family, but he thought that he was favored by the Ke family, and it was his duty to forbear and conceal everything, and he never drank anyone to know, including Ruixi, the young master of this generation. The housekeeper returned to his house, and after thinking about it, he decided to follow the young master to the ancestral house. When he told the coachman to set up the carriage and the horses to leave, the soapy clothes rushed to the door and asked the coachman if this was the Ke family's mansion. The housekeeper lifted the curtain of the carriage door, took the conversation, and said that there was a message from the capital, and he wanted to meet the person in charge of the Ke family to convey it. The housekeeper called someone to follow his carriage to the ancestral house to find the young master, since the reception of the person who was obviously from the rivers and lakes the day before yesterday, so many things have happened to the Ke family, the butler's body swaying with the carriage is powerless to support, this Ke family is going to suffer a great disaster, he has a kind of ominous premonition.

When Ruixi and several retinues rode horses to the ancestral house, the ancestral house was silent and did not seem to have anything abnormal. There was only an old servant waiting anxiously at the door, and the old servant told the young master that after the old lady was getting older, she did not go out in her daily life, and this morning when he was ready to wait for the old man to get up early, he found that there was no one in the house. Ruixi went to the house to check, everything was still the same, it seemed that his parents did not go to bed last night, or they packed up early this morning and left quietly. The two of them were very old, how could they go far only on foot, and he ordered his followers to look everywhere, but to no avail for half a day. Inspecting the courtyard, Ruixi found that the flowers and plants planted in the pond in the back garden were chaotic, and he asked someone to bring a rod and stick to visit the depth of the water, and the people behind him called the young master. The butler arrived, and brought with him a sturdy man in soap clothes. Ruixi gave up the visit and entered the main hall to receive the visitors. The news brought by the person was a strange thing, and it was strange that it was not from someone related to the Ke family.

The soapy man told Ruixi to step down, the housekeeper was about to leave, but was left behind by the wary Ruixi, and before he didn't know the details of the soapy man, Ruixi thought that he should be vigilant. The letter that the person who came did not bring it, he told Ruixi that it was better to ask Ruixi to pack up his belongings and find a safe place to hide. As for why, the person who came only said that it was better to act quickly, and he and other people passed on the message. Ruixi insisted on entertaining the visitors, and the visitors refused but stayed for dinner. During the meal, Ruixi asked what was the big thing recently, and the person who came said that there was really a big thing. A strange explosion occurred in the capital a month ago, and without any warning, the houses of seven lanes around Wudaofang in the capital collapsed, and even the Forbidden Inner City felt violently shaken. The next morning, the ministers who were waiting in the main hall had already discussed privately. The emperor came to summon the right, but no one said why, Long Yan reprimanded the ministers angrily, and then sent the factory guards to investigate. A few days later, it was found that the area of the collapse of the wall and the house was almost circular, and there was no clue as to the cause. The imperial court had no choice but to discuss disaster relief and assistance matters, and the emperor took the lead in going to the ancestral temple to worship and ask for the blessing of God and Buddha. The soap-clothed man said that there was no warning before the explosion, and after the sound of the flat ground, the people passing by on the street were not clothed, the cloth and banners of the shops were nowhere to be seen, and it is said that some people had disappeared. Fortunately, the rest of the people were safe and sound, and the casualties were not serious. After the explosion, it was rumored that the Emperor of Heaven punished the current day's lack of way to warn the explosion. Some wealthy people in the capital began to move away one after another, taking refuge in neighboring prefectures and counties.

When the soap-clothed man said goodbye and left after eating, he still didn't want to reveal who he was sent by, and advised Ruixi not to try to hear more things, he left two words before leaving, similar to verses, so that Ruixi sounded like five thunderbolts shocking, and those two words, extinguished. The people came and left in a hurry, Ruixi and the housekeeper looked at each other and couldn't understand the essentials, so they had to let go of the strange things they had heard in the capital and the two words. Ruixi asked about the depth of the pond in the housekeeper's ancestral house. The housekeeper confessed that when he arrived at Ke's house, this pond water already existed. However, it is not a newly built pond, and the water has never changed due to drought or flooding. The old man never mentioned how the pond water was, and the housekeeper reminded Ruixi whether the pond water in this ancestral house was similar to the pond water in the courtyard of the Ke family in the city, with a waterway at the bottom and the outside. Ruixi shook his head, the ancestral house is located on higher ground nearby, where does the water come from. Don't say that people who are better than the public opinion, even the village man, also knows that there is no water under such terrain. Ruixi leaned down and approached the water to watch, the water was still the same water, there was nothing unusual.

The parents were not found, so Ruixi could only continue to send people to look for him. He gave the matter to the butler, and repeatedly told him to pay attention to secrecy. Rushing back to the city after a stop, it now seems that the outlook is really not good, and the sluggish action will only change more. After Ruixi rushed back to the Ke family's mansion, he immediately sent someone to inform people to gather in his own restaurant in the city to discuss the matter of retreating. Ruixi has little time, and he needs to find a good reason to withdraw, after all, as the largest shareholder in the industry, the withdrawal of shares is really important. Ruixi, who is pacing back and forth, is always disturbed by those two words, and it is destroyed, which literally means that it is quite a sense of killing everything. Who would act like this, does the Ke family, who is the number one in the south, have a feuding opponent to take revenge?

September left the Ke family and hid left and right, until the ocean ship he got on came, and he did not see any suspicious people following or harassing him. Looking at the distant dock, September listened to the boss of the boat scolding him for being clumsy and doing the work at hand, while calming his mind and laughing at himself, he left this dangerous place completely. It turned out that after many years of walking in the rivers and lakes, I did not completely get rid of my fear. The unknown is the scariest thing, and September found that what he was really afraid of was actually this sudden unknown. It is inexplicable and can only be accepted, and September can only change from a leisurely person who is a hero to the lowest boat guy on the sea boat who is bumpy with the waves. After going to sea, they were not always busy, and when the wind was right for the sunny weather, the guys would go to the deck to do some work, and the captain of the ship would not object, and would join in to tell some anecdotes overseas. It was from here that September quickly discovered something that he was interested in, and perhaps had something to do with what happened to him.

The boss of the boat is dressed in an unrefined dress, but his appearance is not good, but he is a person who has seen the world, so September sighed that he is just walking in the mountains and rivers under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, and the world he has seen is actually very narrow, so in the face of the boat boss, he can't help but gradually rise some admiration. The captain of the ship said that after setting off from the port, he went all the way south along the northern bay, knowing that he could not see the position of the shore, and he reached the extreme south of the sea. However, this is already seen in the past, and the ships of these years have already crossed there and headed southwest, and after walking for more than half a year, they will reach the country of yucca, and then go west to the country of Anji. In the land of Naanji, there are several people who are completely different from Chinese characters, and their skin colors are different. September is not interested in these, but in the anecdotes of the sea that the ship boss recounts. For example, when there is no wind or waves, you will encounter a disc that roars from the bottom of the sea and disappears without a trace, especially when it is close to the Ephyrek continent, which is the country of Anji, it is very easy to encounter. The captain's remarks made many people afraid, and the captain also said that this time the sea ship was going to Anji. This made the people even more frightened. The captain explained that Angie and Master Ma said that the disc was actually the car that the god of the sea was riding, and that the disc did not disturb the ship sailing on the sea, but at most sometimes it came very close and then left quickly. In the legend of the Anji people, the god of the sea is like a lizard on land, intelligent and powerful, and has little contact with people. It is the image of the god of the sea relayed by the captain, called September Yizhen, like a lizard, this is not the same as the monster he encountered. But on one side is the land of China, and on the other side is the land of Anji, which is thousands of miles away. September was going to find an opportunity to talk about this matter with the boat boss alone, and the difficulty was how a guy who had just boarded the boat could talk to the boat boss.

The day before arriving at the extreme south mentioned by the boss, the ships laden with cargo were slow to move and were overtaken by pirates who haunted the area from time to time, and a fierce battle began. The so-called fierce battle, September does not think so, if they fight in the waves, September knows that he has no chance of winning, but in the deck duel, September has not seen many opponents. The pirates who came from the rope seemed to be the Chinese clan, but it was really difficult to judge without saying a word, and only the sword was talking. September knows the weight of the other party after a little fight, but it is just a rabble of people who do evil. September told the others to take shelter for a while, and with a leisurely stroll drove all the pirates out into the sea, destroying the rudder of the pirate ship before leaving. The people on the ship knew at this time that this person who broke the appearance was actually a stunt, and they were impressed by it, and September became the person who relied on the ship's boss.

Speaking of these pirates, the captain of the ship told September that these people were actually Chinese. Speaking of plundering, most of the wild people from those islands and reefs in the extreme South China Sea can't even make iron tools, how can they build big ships to plunder the sea. The captain of the ship asked September if he had seen the two flags on the pirate ship, and he said that they were the mark of the Ke family. The Ke family, when I think of Ruixi in September, isn't it the young master of the Ke family. The boss of the ship said that the Ke family, who seemed to be kind in the land of China, was actually the most rampant pirate in this sea area. September sighed in his heart, this Ke family turned out to be ill-gotten gains. The boss said that after these pirates plundered, they would resell their goods to merchants from other countries, and sometimes even sell all the people on board to Anji or Ma Da Island, becoming lifelong slaves and difficult to return to China. People say that this Ke family has been engaged in this business for a long time, why has it been smooth for many years, because there is a strong relationship in the imperial court. However, some people say that every generation of the Ke family, regardless of gender, is actually the descendant of the monster. The first generation of ancestors of the Ke family was a person who was good at change, and it was only after he accumulated wealth by plundering at sea that he turned into a good merchant and settled in China. This ancestor has passed away for many years, and he is still protecting future generations to accumulate wealth.

Does this have anything to do with what Ruixi said, September, who had something to do, hurriedly coped with the crude banquet of the ship boss and returned to his cabin, with the monsters of that day in front of him. Could it be that the monster he encountered was simply sent by the Ruixi Ke family? What was the reason for what they did, and after trying their best to think about it, September fell asleep under the stagger. The captain continued to drink, flicking his tail in the way, snorting and panting, and the irritating thing was sometimes the body that changed after drinking. Ever since he was a child, when the man who walked the rivers and lakes showed the future, his family had died one after another, and he fled to the sea in terror to save himself. I heard that the ancestors of the Ke family will also change, but I don't know if it is like him.
