Last night there was a crescent moon hanging in the sky, and when I woke up the next morning, it was raining outside.

The rain wasn't too heavy, but it made everyone in the courtyard hurriedly hold up an umbrella.

The rain hits the green bamboo and tiles, making a sonorous sound of tapping, from far and near, gently and gently.

The blue trees and blue and white black mountain stones, the rain is more and more eye-catching, and the bamboo leaves that are clear after being wet by the rain, the jade seems to be as smooth as the pearl at the tip of the leaf, and it is so refreshing that the eyeballs seem to be washed bright.

Shang Shi turned his head and was speechless for a moment to the eyes of the same autumn water that had no return.

"Dao Chief. She shouted softly.

Wu Guizheng was meditating with a faint expression, and when he heard Shang Shi's voice, his eyes turned away, "Huh?"

"I'm wondering...... her little girl propped her chin and blinked her eyes, "Since Zhuang Qianyuan and Nie Hanyun's ultimate goal is Wujiabao, why would Wujiabao still have people? and why would the young master of Wujiabao be allowed to walk in this courtyard." ”

Wugui thought about it for a while and replied: "Perhaps, the main family and the side family of Wujiabao are not as harmonious as outsiders have heard. ”

As soon as he said this, Shang Shi understood that Zhuang Qianyuan's intention was to Wujiabao, and the Wujiabao side line may also be jealous of the status and scenery of the main family in the rivers and lakes and even in the imperial court.

Zhuang Qianyuan and Wu Jiabao are both seeking skin with the tiger, but in order to get something in the end, they are also willing to take risks, everyone understands this truth, how can they receive a return if they don't pay?

"As for the young master of Wujiabao, Zhuang Qianyuan should also use this to test the attitude of the master of Wujiabao. Wu Gui continued, "He is testing whether the things he has done now have been hidden from the eyes of the Wu Family Fort's family. ”

Shang Shi's arm hurt a little on the table, so he simply changed his posture, held his chin with one hand and tilted his head slightly to look at Wuguo, and said, "Then the people of Wujiabao really don't know, I always feel that this matter is not so simple." ”

"Who knows. After saying this, Wugui sighed softly, then got up and picked up a cushion from the soft couch and handed it to Shang Shi, motioning for her to put it under her arm.

Shang Shi was blushing from the sudden movement of No Home, took the mat, rubbed his thumb against the delicate touch on the cushion, and after a while his face felt less burned and panicked.

She thought that Dao Chang was such a person who made people feel indifferent and cold when they looked at it, and he would care and be considerate of people if he didn't think about it, and there was always a feeling that he was going to fall off the altar, but it was unexpectedly heartwarming.

Maybe it was because of the shame in her heart, she rarely felt that getting along with the Taoist Chief was a little awkward and sticky at the moment, and she was anxious to find a topic, so she asked: "Dao Chief, in fact, there is a question that I have always been curious about, that is, why did you come to this courtyard in Longxi Bamboo Forest to investigate Zhuang Qianyuan's matter? Did you have any grievances with him before, or was you entrusted by someone?"

Wugui was suddenly stunned when he heard this, in fact, he had long been accustomed to all kinds of tasks that came suddenly, and he was curious at first, but then he didn't think about why.

The man asked him to investigate Zhuang Qianyuan's affairs, and he kept doing his best to investigate, but he never thought about why the man wanted him to do this.

Only then did he realize that since he met Shansh, he had been aware of more hidden problems under her guidance, consciously or unconsciously.

yes, why?

Could it be that there was an entanglement between that person and Zhuang Qianyuan, so that he kept paying attention to this person? So, what is that person himself doing?

"Dao Chief?"

It wasn't until Shang Shi called him again that Wugui realized that he had been silent for a long time, and after thinking about it, he replied to her: "It's also a ...... Let it be trusted. ”

Shang Shi nodded thoughtfully, and his eyes touched the window to find that the rain had stopped at some point.

After the rain, the roof tiles are floating with a fishy and wet shimmer, and the undried rainwater falls down the tile trough and eaves into the shallow puddles on the ground, which can reflect the distant moist and green damp, the overlapping mountain shadows and the silence of all the sounds.

Shang Shi felt that this silence resonated with the quiet meditation in the house, and it made her addicted.

"Dao Chief, the rain has stopped. ”

No return walked over, glanced through the window in the courtyard, and said to Shang Shi silently: "There are more hidden guards." ”

Shang Shi had a little worry on his face, "Then the Dao chief still wants to go out to investigate?"

Nodding without returning, it is natural to want it. They have to hurry, after all, those people in Wujiabao are still a hidden danger to them, and it is not certain when it will break out.

He changed into civilian clothes, glanced at the unclear sky outside the window, and said to Shang Shi: "This time I will go alone, you will stay in the room, in case Zhuang Qianyuan sends someone to come, you remember to improvise." ”

After a pause, he added, "It's all about your own safety." ”

Shang Shi's heart warmed, and he smiled and nodded.

She smiled and watched the homeless leave her sight, waiting for the back to disappear completely, and the smile on her face gradually faded, dyed with worry.

I don't know if it's because of the people from Wujiabao, Zhuang Qianyuan has almost doubled the number of hidden guards in the entire courtyard, which undoubtedly makes it more difficult to investigate the news of no return.

This time, he went to the residence of the guest from the other courtyard, and Zhuang Qianyuan had been there a few times, just because of him, the "young master of Wujiabao", Zhuang Qianyuan seemed to be extremely cautious, and even the conversation with Nie Hanyun did not reveal any key information.

There is a special guest residence in the annex, which is specially prepared by Nie Hanyun for the people who come to the courtyard, except for the monk Shi, the rest of the people who came to the river and lakes this time are all arranged to come to the guest house. Based on this, it can also be seen that Nie Hanyun is a well-behaved person, and he is also a powerful character.

The design of the guest house can be seen that the owner is very careful, and almost none of the buildings are repeated, each with its own characteristics and scenery.

Homeless travels from building to building, spending most of his energy dodging guards hidden in the corners.

He hadn't come to live here before, and he wasn't familiar with the situation here, so he could only avoid the guards by instinct and past experience.

But something went wrong around the corner - a person like him was also dressed in civilian clothes to cover his face.

The two saw each other for the first time, and at the same time slapped their palms on each other.

There is no return for fear of alarming the hidden guard in the shadows, so this palm did not dare to use all his strength, he made up his mind to leave after this palm, he wanted not to entangle much, but he didn't want the other party to seem to mean the same, and he didn't do it again after dealing with a palm at will.

Although Wugui was suspicious, he didn't dare to stay longer, and glanced at the person opposite him and turned away.

The person who stayed in place glanced at the red mark left by the palm-to-palm, and narrowed his eyes slightly, "Young master?"
