Chapter 7: Thank You! (Ask for collections, recommendations, commuter passes)

This afternoon, Xu Shan spent the afternoon sitting on the steps.

Wang Tou'er has been arraigning prisoners in the prison, and there is no need for them at all.

Zhao Tieshan and Ding Sihai each leaned against a vermilion pillar, pillowing their arms, the sun was shining down, and they were both lazy and squinting.

But Xu Shan couldn't sit still at all, like an ant on a hot pot, pacing back and forth in a small courtyard about the size of a cage outside the eaves of the porch - the slender eaves connected several courtyards, this place was their resting place, and they were not allowed to go out if they had nothing to do.

Xu Shan scolded the street anxiously.

Seeing that it was getting dark, he didn't even let him go! He's still in a hurry to find a way to light up the jade pendant!

Besides, if it drags on like this, when it gets dark, where should he go to spend the night?

He can't go back to the loess house, there are still people waiting to cut off his head!

Do you want to sleep on the streets? In the late autumn season, people probably can't freeze to death, but the problem is that this ghost place is full of evil fog wafting in the middle of the night, and with his small body, it is better to lie down in the mortuary village than to sleep on the streets.

This also saves you the trouble of bothering others to send it over tomorrow!

He turned around and took another step, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and said in a low voice: "You two, it's okay here, I want to go out." ”

Hearing this, Zhao Tieshan immediately sat up straight and glared at him with his eyes: "What do you want?" This is the county office! How can you just walk around? If you accidentally bump into some noble person, do you want your life? ”

Ding Sihai next to him also opened his eyes and said quietly: "Although I don't know what you're anxious about, it's really not good, leaving your post without permission will be punished...... We are guilty of the same sin. ”

As soon as Zhao Tieshan heard the same crime, his face immediately changed: "Stay honest!" Even big things have to be put back! ”

Xu Shan was silent for a moment before he said, "Don't be nervous, I just want to go to the thatched house, if not, forget it." ”

"What? To the thatched house? Then you should have said it earlier! Naturally, you can still go to the thatched house! Really, my eyes are spent! Zhao Tieshan raised his thick fingers and pointed at the end of the eaves: "Keep walking, go to the end, turn a corner and you'll be there!" ”

"Go and go back quickly, in case the king just calls us, it won't be good if we can't find anyone." Ding Sihai looked at him and said.

Xu Shan arched his hand and followed the direction of Zhao Tieshan's finger.

As he walked along the eaves, he could clearly feel two eyes following him from behind him, until he left the eaves and turned in the direction of the hut.

Standing around the corner, he pinched his waist with both hands, his face full of unhappiness.

You can't run away, this county is outrageous, and it extends in all directions, if you don't have a guide, you really can't tell where you will go.

But Zhao Tieshan, who knew the road, would not let him go first.

He swirled back and forth, his brow furrowed.

If there is really no other way, I will have to find a way to escape tomorrow......

Escaping from the Martial Academy, there shouldn't be such serious consequences, right? And it can't involve anyone, and it's impossible for Zhao Tieshan and Ding Sihai to stop him anymore......

"Looks like I'll only be able to go back and gamble once tonight...... Bet that the other party will not smoke, poison, or set fire......" Xu Shan's face was cloudy, and when he thought of the big knife that was slashed down at his head, the whole person shuddered again

But after being afraid, he was more annoyed, if only he was as powerful as Zhao Tieshan, then he would definitely cut it back! Not only chop it back, but chop it into potato chips!

As long as I survive tonight...... Phew! I'm sure I'll survive tonight!

Xu Shan looked at the toilet in front of him, walked in, and calmed down while releasing water.

After the water was discharged, he fastened his cloth rope belt, searched around, found a water tank, scooped some water to wash his hands, and walked back as he shook it.

As soon as he turned the corner and returned to the hallway, two glances were taken back.

But he didn't pay attention to it, strode over, no longer anxious, and sat down sullenly at his standby station.

He thought for a while, turned his head and asked, "Brother Zhao, can I go and squeeze with you tonight?" ”

"You, you, you, you're really plotting against me!"

"No, no, no! I'm worried about the danger of sleeping alone......"

"It's dangerous for two big men to sleep on the same kang! Besides, it's such a big place, I can't lie down enough, how can two people sleep! No way! ”

Xu Shan looked at Zhao Tieshan, who was full of annoyance, his lips moved, and he nodded: "It's also reasonable, I'm sorry, I didn't say what I said just now." ”

He didn't ask Ding Sihai, Ding Sihai didn't seem to be as good as him, if the person who wanted to kill him really appeared again, maybe he would be affected by the time.

What's more, Ding Sihai has already turned around and closed his eyes.

"Brother Zhao, is there a teacher in the martial arts academy?"

"Teaching is only in the morning! If you have something, just wait for tomorrow! ”

It's going to be late tomorrow...... Xu Shan's face was heavy.

It seems that you will have to rely on yourself.

The courtyard was quiet, except for the occasional rustling of leaves.

Gradually, the eaves on one side were dyed with gold edges, and the breeze blowing in from outside was much cooler.

A large area of fiery red clouds floated in the sky.

Xu Shan sighed in his heart.

It's dark......

Zhao Tieshan and Ding Sihai also climbed up from the steps and patted the dust on their clothes.

"It's almost time, let's go! Go to Wang Tou'er to report, it's time to go back to the martial arts academy! ”

The three of them went out of the small courtyard, and after walking for a while, they unfortunately found Wang Tou'er, who was scolding his subordinates in the courtyard.

"You can't do anything big! What do you want! Rise! Stand up for me! ”

The people who were reprimanded by the king were about to shake into a sieve, and raised their heads stiffly, but immediately lowered their heads, and even bent their waists.

Xu Shan and the three of them were also silent, standing by the door, not daring to say a word.

The three of them were scolding in their hearts.

Zhao Tieshan was even more annoyed, and he couldn't wait to slap himself.

If you don't come early or late, why is this time coming?

Wang Tou'er seemed to be annoyed, slammed the book in his hand on the face of his subordinates, and waved his hand: "Get out!" ”

The black-clothed little official didn't even dare to scream, kept bowing down, covered the book on his face and ran out of the yard.

Xu Shan and Ding Sihai swallowed their saliva in unison, and they both subconsciously went to see Zhao Tieshan.

Zhao Tieshan was standing straight, his face was full of seriousness, and he refused to take a step forward or speak.

If he didn't squeak, the other two would be even less likely to come up, and they all tensed their faces, treating themselves like a piece of wood.

Xu Shan heard Zhao Tieshan say that Wang Tou'er was born in the army, and he was the most weak on weekdays.

Wang Tou'er was obviously angry now, pinching his waist and walking back and forth, and the scattered ferocious qi was about to disperse the clouds in the sky.

Whoever dares to go over at this time will definitely have no good fruit to eat.

All three of them breathe lightly, trying to weaken their presence.

But Zhao Tieshan, such a big guy, was stunned here, and it was difficult for people to see it.

The king, with a calm face, walked towards them.

All three were agitators, trying to straighten their backs.

The king's head paced with his hands behind his back, looking at them one by one.

After looking at them all, he walked up to Xu Shan again and looked at them coldly.

Xu Shan's scalp exploded in an instant, and he forcibly tensed his body, not letting himself tremble, and he didn't dare to look away.

But it's like looking at the beast.

He instantly felt like a year!

Xu Shan heard his own breathing again, and the beads of sweat on his forehead rolled down in large pieces, blurring his vision, and falling down his chin.

It was like going back to the time when he was entangled in evil fog in the morning, his heart was beating faster and faster, and he was overwhelmed by the suffocation feeling that he was overwhelmed by the water overhead, and he couldn't touch it under his feet.

Just when his gaze began to shake, Wang Tou'er finally looked away and ordered Zhao Tieshan: "Tomorrow, you bring him over!" ”

"Yes!" Zhao Tieshan responded loudly, but his voice became sharp like a rooster stuck in his neck.

"Let's go back!"

"Yes!"

They stiffened and turned around, Xu Shan slowed down, and leaned on Zhao Tieshan to push before coming back to his senses.

They all forgot how to walk and swing their arms, and finally they turned together, like three marionettes, and ran out of the courtyard side by side, and then ran away without looking back, towards the vermilion gate.

Outside the gate, the people who went to "A" and "B" were already there, waiting for the three of them.

Xu Shan and Ding Sihai stood at the back of the crowd in shock.

Especially Xu Shan, he gasped for breath and experienced the taste of near-death again.

Damn, it turns out that being able to stare people to death with their eyes is not an exaggerated rhetoric at all!

Zhao Tieshan wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve and shouted, "Go, go!" Go back! ”

No one said a word, as if they had been accustomed to numbness, and they all turned around silently and walked back the way they had come in the morning.

The way back was much easier than when I came in the morning, not only was there no wisp of evil fog on the street, but there were also vendors on both sides, and people came and went, and there was no bustle.

The air was still mixed with the smell of roasted sesame seeds and freshly cooked buns, and a group of people quietly swallowed their saliva.

Xu Shan, who finally settled down, wiped his sweat with his sleeve and dragged Zhao Tieshan next to him.

Zhao Tieshan was swallowing his saliva, and he was a little dissatisfied when he was disturbed: "What are you doing?" ”

Xu Shan asked: "Wang Tou'er said, 'Bring him over tomorrow', is it talking about Brother Ding?" ”

"How could it be him?" Zhao Tieshan shook his head: "Tomorrow you get up early, let's see you at the gate of the Martial Academy!" ”

Ding Sihai laughed at himself and said, "Don't think about it, Wang Tou'er doesn't even bother to look at me." ”

Xu Shan shook his head: "But Wang Tou'er didn't point to me or you just now, right?" ”

"This, too......"

"So there is also a fifty percent chance that the person Wang Tou'er is looking for is you, Brother Ding."

"Hey, there's some truth to that......"

Xu Shan immediately arched his hand, his face full of sincerity: "It just so happens that I am in a bit of a hurry, so tomorrow Brother Zhao will take Brother Ding to the county government first, and I will change the day." ”

Zhao Tieshan hesitated and said, "This is also a ......."

A smile appeared on Xu Shan's face.

But at this time, Ding Sihai next to him asked: "What if the king is really looking for Xu Shan, what should I do?" ”

Xu Shan turned his head to look at him.

Zhao Tieshan patted his head: "That's right!" If it's really Brother Xu who is looking for, then won't we be self-defeating? Blame the king's head...... Ahem, got it! I know what to do! Early tomorrow morning, let's all go! ”

Xu Shan gritted his teeth and squeezed out a smile: "Good way, good way." ”
