Chapter 21 Wutong Village

Gu Liwu's usual gentle demeanor was completely gone, and his whole body exuded cold indifference, and he spoke plainly, but it made people tremble without a fight.

"Don't want to confess?"

"Ahhh!!!!!hh

Gu Li worriedly pulled out the arrow that pierced into Zhang Song's thigh, the barb on the arrow was still covered with bloody flesh, he threw the arrow on the table in disgust, picked up the handkerchief that had been prepared long ago and wiped the blood on his hand.

"It's okay, I have time to spend with you slowly." Gu Liwu seemed to be talking about something inconsequential.

There was news from the guards.

"Childe, the news was sent out, and the Nine Winds Childe said that he would go to Wutong Village immediately."

Hearing this, Gu Liwu waved his hand to signal the guards to retreat, he slowly turned to look at Zhang Song, who was shocked, chuckled, and said:

"As you think, it's the Wutong Village where your wife and children are."

"What do you want to do! I warn you, you can't all touch them! Zhang Song's words were excited, and he wanted to break free from the iron rope on his body, but he only heard the iron rope "rattling".

Gu Li glanced at the scar on Zhang Song's chest, Zhang Song had countless scars on his body, obviously the appearance of the rich boy before was pretended by him.

"Oh, yes." Gu Liwei added "kindly": "You may not know much about Mu Jiufeng, he doesn't have the patience to talk to you slowly like me, he acts insidiously and ruthlessly, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is 'killing people without blinking', and I don't know if your wife and children's bones are not as hard as yours?" ”

Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, Zhang Song's face was frighteningly pale.

After hearing this, Bai Yi silently turned his back and forced a smile.

"If you tell me honestly, maybe it's still too late."

Ye Sili and Xiao Ling came out of the last jewelry shop, and the four people who followed behind them looked at each other's things full of things and looked at each other, wanting to cry without tears.

"Xiaoling, which other street do you want to go? Or is there anything else you want to buy? Today's birthday is your biggest, as long as you like it, I will buy it and give it to you. ”

Ye Sili and Xiao Ling held hands, talking and laughing.

Xiao Ling thought about it seriously and said, "It seems that except for the shops in the west of the city, we have finished shopping the rest of the shops." ”

"Then we'll go to the west of the city." Ye Sili made a decisive decision, turned around and saw the four people behind him "carrying the weight forward", so he asked Duchun and Mo'er to send the things back first, leaving Yun'an and Lian Xia to follow the two of them.

The population in the western part of the city is relatively small, and although it is daytime, the streets are not too noisy.

"Si Li, don't you think that portrait looks like Nine Winds?" Xiao Ling craned his neck and looked carefully at the person on the street corner in front of him.

Ye Sili looked in the direction of Xiao Ling's finger, and the back was ......

"It's the Nine Winds." Ye Sili affirmed.

"What is he doing here?" The two of them asked in unison, then smiled heartily and quickly followed.

Who knew that as soon as he chased to the corner, Mu Jiufeng's figure disappeared.

Someone suddenly attacked, Yun An and Lian Xia instantly stepped forward to confront that person, but with one move, the person saw the person who was fighting clearly, and said in surprise:

"Summer? Yun'an? ”

Jian Xia also put away the short sword, and wondered: "Why are you?" ”

"Yuanmu, what about the nine winds?" Ye Sili stepped forward and asked.

Yuan Mu saluted the two, and Mu Jiufeng also walked out, and he was also very surprised to see that it was the two of them.

"Why are you here? I also told you about the worries? ”

Ye Sili and Xiao Ling looked at Mu Jiufeng with a confused expression, and Ye Sili asked:

"Ah Worry, but I have something to hand over to you?"

Mu Jiufeng saw the reaction of the two and knew that he was talking too much, but under Ye Sili's gaze, he had to tell the truth, and sure enough, these two little ancestors wanted to follow.

"Meeting is fate, we can meet in the west of the city, which means that you and I have a fate, it is better to go together." Xiao Ling coaxed with the tone of a charlatan.

Ye Sili also immediately responded: "Yes, yes, there are many of us, so we can take care of it." ”

Mu Jiufeng looked at Ye Sili's expectant gaze, and was very helpless, so he had to smile and say, "Okay, meeting is fate, let's go." ”

Wutong Village is located in the western suburbs of the city, in a remote location, but the scene in front of them is indeed something that Ye Sili and Xiao Ling have never seen.

In the golden autumn of October, the clouds return.

Children chase and fight at the village gate; Women do their laundry by the brook or sit around doing needlework; Men are fetching water at a well or carrying firewood into the house; And the old man just sat quietly at the door of the house, looking into the distance.

"They all seem to be happy." Ye Sili looked at the scene in front of him, the rural life turned out to be so harmonious and quiet.

"The murderer you caught, Zhang Song, lives here?" Xiao Ling said pitifully: "This village looks so beautiful, if Zhang Song is really a murderer......

She didn't say any more, but Ye Sili and the others also knew the latter words, if Zhang Song was really a murderer, assassinating the princess and the prince of another country, I was afraid that ten Wutong villages would not be enough to calm the anger of the saint.

"Let's go check it out first." Mu Jiufeng said.

Ye Sili and the others came in all the way, and the old and young in the village were vigilantly staring at their line, but there were still enthusiastic and bold old men who came forward to ask, Mu Jiufeng only said that they were Zhang Song's friends, and the old man enthusiastically pointed them out to Zhang Song's residence.

Ye Sili saw that the old man who pointed the way had inconvenient legs and feet, so he asked Jian Xia to give him silver taels so that he could go to see Langzhong, but the old man only said that it was an old illness and refused to accept the silver two, Ye Sili had no choice but to give up when he saw that he insisted.

"It's his house in front of you."

Ye Sili looked ahead, there was a small courtyard surrounded by a fence, and when they got closer, they saw a woman in her thirties, sitting in the courtyard and mixing things in the iron basin, perhaps for the chickens and ducks in the courtyard.

"But Kou Niang?" Motoki stepped forward and asked.

Kou Niang heard the sound and saw a group of people, a little hesitant, Mu Jiufeng explained:

"Don't be afraid, Kou Niang, we are friends with Zhang Song."

Hearing Zhang Song's name, Kou Niang stepped forward and opened the door.

"Since you are friends with your husband, I will be a good entertainer, but there is nothing at home that I can take my hands on, I hope you don't dislike it." Kou Niang beckoned them into the courtyard and went to the kitchen to make tea.

Ye Sili and Mu Jiufeng observed the courtyard, and there was nothing abnormal, and suddenly Xiao Ling shouted "Ah-", and then hugged Ye Sili, Yun An subconsciously stepped forward and blocked Xiao Ling with a horizontal sword.

"What's wrong?" Ye Sili comforted Xiao Ling and stared around vigilantly.

"There are a lot of chickens and ducks in the yard, I'm afraid." Xiao Ling's eyes were closed, and the sleeves on both sides were pinched by her.

Ye Sili looked at the poultry in the courtyard, thinking that Xiao Ling had been afraid of these fangs and long-mouthed guys since he was a child, and comforted softly: "It's okay, Yun'an will help you block it." ”

Seeing that Xiao Ling was frightened, Kou Niang hurriedly came over to apologize.

Ye Sili stared at Kou Niang's every move and asked tentatively:

"Kou Niang, you feed so many poultry in the yard alone?"

It's not strange to feed some chickens and ducks in the small yard of the farmhouse, but ...... Ye Sili looked around, there were too many poultry in captivity in the yard, even in the corner of the backyard, and the strangest thing was that these poultry didn't look very healthy.

Hearing Ye Sili ask like this, Kou Niang kept a light smile and replied:

"My father-in-law learned some Qihuang techniques in the early years, and the cats and dogs in the village, of course, including chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits and other poultry were treated by my father-in-law."

"These are the villagers in the courtyard."

"It's cold outside, I just made tea, you guys come in and sit."

Mu Jiufeng and Ye Sili glanced at each other and followed.

Xiao Ling stood in place and stiffened all over, not daring to open his eyes at all.

"Don't be afraid, princess." Yun An's voice was low but inexplicably steady, he rarely spoke on weekdays, even if Xiao Ling had a child's temper and scolded him when he moved, he didn't say a word, and accepted it silently.

At this time, Xiao Ling tentatively opened her eyes when she heard his voice, and found that the poultry around her had been driven away by Yun An, and it was difficult to get close at all. Seeing this, her tense body barely relaxed a little, but she still didn't dare to take a step when she saw the rooster wandering slowly not far away.

Yun An hesitated for a moment, lowered his head, and stretched out his left hand in front of Xiao Ling with a slight fist.

Xiao Ling saw that Mu Jiufeng and the others had already gone away, so he couldn't care too much, reached out and put his hand on Yun An's arm, and said gratefully: "Thank you." ”

Yun An didn't say anything, just buried his head lower.

Mu Jiufeng entered the room and sat down, knocked the folding fan on his lap one by one, looked at Kou Niang, and asked:

"Why don't you see Zhang Song?"

"Today, the prime minister went out early in the morning, saying that there was a rabbit fed by a big family in the city that was sick and asked him to go and see, and if you want to find him, you may have to change the day." Kou Niang replied calmly.

"I went out early in the morning and haven't come back yet, but something tricky? If it's convenient, you might as well talk to us, maybe we can help. Mu Jiufeng said without blushing and without a beat.

"The affairs outside are all handled by the public, and it is inconvenient for me to ask a woman." Kou Niang said softly.

Xiao Ling entered the house and let go of Yun An's arm, and Yun An silently retreated behind her.

"You really don't know what Zhang Song did outside?" Xiao Ling questioned.

Seeing Xiao Ling ask like this, Kou Niang sensed that something was wrong and asked worriedly:

"But something happened to my father-in-law?"

"He plotted ......"

"He probably won't be able to come back recently, all the rabbits in the house are sick, the young master in the house is very distressed, so he left him in the house to heal the rabbits, he specially asked us to pass a message to you, so that you don't worry at home." Ye Sili said first.

Xiao Ling was a little puzzled, Mu Jiufeng got up happily and said:

"Now that the words have been brought and the tea has been drunk, it is not early, so we will not disturb Kou Niang's rest."

Kou Niang was still a little relieved, and asked, "Is my husband really safe?" ”

"Nature." Mu Jiufeng replied calmly.

After Mu Jiufeng, Xiao Ling and the others went out, Ye Sili turned around and asked Kou Niang:

"Kou Niang's surname is Gu?"

Kou Niang's face was a little unnatural, and then she replied politely:

"How does the girl know?"

Ye Sili casually found a reason, "Zhang Song often mentions you to us. ”

The light smile on Kou Niang's face froze, and she sincerely requested:

"Girl, you are friends with each other, and I hope you can help me on weekdays, I don't ask him to be rich, but I wish him peace."

Ye Sili was stunned, and then said heartily: "Naturally, we must help honest and kind people." ”
