Chapter 14: Matters of the Ear
In the past few years, Wuya has learned a lot of Kun Hades Palace methods and mental tips, although they are all to save their lives, but it is enough to deal with two robbers. Now she was determined to teach the robbers a good lesson, lest they do any more harm in the future.
She quickly pulled out a short sword, and in an instant swung it at the thin bandit's face, cutting him into a big flower face, making you swear insulting and shameless before you could see anyone.
When the thin robber reacted, he only felt a hot pain on his face, and when he touched his face, he felt a hand of blood, and immediately knelt on the ground in fright and begged for mercy, "It's because I have eyes and don't know Taishan, and the woman spares her life...... Spare ......"
"Do you dare to rob again in the future?"
"Don't dare, don't dare......" The thin robber begged as he handed back the whip in his hand.
Unexpectedly, when Wuya reached out to take the horsewhip, the cunning thin robber wanted to tie up Wuya's hand with the horsewhip with his backhand, but fortunately, Wuya kept a heart and pulled back the horsewhip, and the hot hand was a whip.
I can't even catch a girl, my teammates are really not strong, the fat bandit with a beard and meat has to go out in person, he is very strong, and he has a lot of strength, he is not afraid of the whip in Wuya's hand at all, he grabbed the whip and grabbed Wuya's wrist, grabbed Wuya, and twisted her hand to her back, wanting to tie her up with a whip, when Wuya was thinking about how to get out, Cangli appeared.
Cangli already knew that there was movement on this side of the fork in the road, and he also guessed that Wuya, who loved to fight unevenly, would be nosy in the past, but he didn't expect her to really pass, just now he watched a good show in the back, but he didn't expect Wuya to be so weak, it seems that the exercises taught her were taught in vain.
In the face of the three robbers, Cang Li didn't move his fingers, it was all the sound of bones "clicking" and breaking, he didn't want to kill, but he also gave the robbers a lesson of breaking their hands and feet, "If you dare to be a thief in the future, I will tear you apart." ”
"Yes, yes...... We don't dare anymore...... "The three robbers were wounded and fled."
Wuya helped the two children up, and the couple was very grateful, and bluntly said that if it weren't for Wuya and Cangli, their children would be robbed and sold. The southwest has been in turmoil for two years, and some people can do anything in order to live.
"Where are you going?" Boundless asked.
"Go to the southeast to seek refuge with my brother's uncle."
Wuya was moved by compassion, and when he saw that the two children were yellow and thin, he took out dry food from his package and gave it to the children. But Wuya still whispered in the couple's ear: "I am Shui Wuya, if you go to the southeast and pass by the Linyuan Villa in Longwan Mountain, help me send a message and say that everything is fine with me." ”
In the end, Wuya got on the horse again and caught up with Cangli. She was a little weak along the way, and she didn't dare to speak if Cangli didn't speak.
"Are your hands alright?"
"Uh...... It's okay...... Actually, I ...... "Before he finished speaking, Cangli waved the reins and ran forward, "Don't fall behind, follow up." ”
At sunset, they rushed to another town before dark. There was only one inn in the town, and when Cangli and Wuwu arrived, the horses of Yuxi were already resting and eating forage in the stables next to the inn.
Yuxi is really intimate, in the past six years, they have arranged their lives properly in Yunan, and now they are ready to go back and even prepare for the road one step in advance. She had already made up the room for tonight's rest, and ordered the kitchen to prepare some side dishes and hot water. As long as Cangli and Wuya arrive, they can eat a hot meal, then take a comfortable bath, and get up early to rush on a cloudy day.
"Guest officer, is the meal delivered to the room or eaten in the hall?" Seeing that the three of them had arrived, the shopkeeper took their package and asked.
"Let's eat right here." Wuya sat down as she spoke, she was already hungry, and in the morning her dry food was given to the two children, and she didn't have anything to eat for a day, "Hurry up and serve the food, I'm starving." ”
"Didn't I have dry food for you? Didn't eat on the way? Yuxi looked at her with a coated look and asked for no reason.
"Alas! Don't mention it. Wu Ya was angry at the thought of the robber now, and her wrist still hurt faintly. The nosy was caught by the robbers, and Cangli was embarrassed to mention it.
As he was talking, six strong men came in carrying boxes, snorting and drinking, making a lot of noise, and it seemed that they were also passing by to rest at night. Seeing that the boxes they brought in were tied with red silk and carved with the word "Shou", this should be a birthday gift.
The shopkeeper heard the movement and hurriedly came out of the back kitchen, and saw such a large group of people, which is rare in a remote village and town, and immediately greeted him with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, are you going to eat or stay in the hotel?" ”
"Eat! Stay! The best food and drink, the best rooms! ”
"Okay, you sit down first, I'll tell the back kitchen to prepare more wine and food."
"Bring two jars of good wine first!"
"Okay!" The shopkeeper turned around and went into the kitchen at the back.
A middle-aged man in his forties and fifties hurriedly came down upstairs, shouting "Rare guest!" Rare guests! Ah Ping! Why don't you come out to greet guests! "This is the owner of the inn, who can only shout and scream, and he won't move half a finger. Sure enough, I saw the shopkeeper Ah Ping holding two jars of wine in his left hand and a stack of bowls in his right hand and hurriedly coming up, but he was still reprimanded by the innkeeper for being slow and snubbing the guests.
Xu is in a hurry, Ah Ping accidentally tripped forward, and saw that the wine jar and bowl were about to fall, the boss stepped up and stabilized the person, and the bowl and the wine jar were also firmly caught, this skill is not simple.
The six people found a place to put the box away, and the reprimand of the boss on the side was just normal. Ah Ping hurriedly wiped the table and poured wine, completely leaving Cangli, Wuya and Yuxi aside, this difference was too big, Wuya was so hungry that he knocked on the table and shouted: "Why don't you serve the food yet!" ”
"Don't worry, the dishes are already burning, Ah Ping, go to the kitchen and have a look." The innkeeper urged again.
The little second Ah Ping put down the wine jar and hurried to the kitchen. This Pingshan town is located in the middle of nowhere, and there are few people from outside, and this Pingshan inn is barely making a living, and it is rare to suddenly have so many people tonight in a year. The innkeeper was naturally overjoyed, for fear of neglect, but he also noticed the expensive boxes brought in by the strong men, and couldn't help asking: "Dare to ask the strong man, where are you going to give gifts?" It doesn't look like ordinary people can afford it. ”
One of them replied, "Have you heard of Linyuan Villa?" That is the world's largest village, and in five days it will be the fiftieth birthday of the owner of the water village. ”
"Although the small land is remote and far away from the rivers and lakes, the guests who passed by a few years ago mentioned that it was their father and son who eliminated the harm to the world and defeated the dangerous Kun Hades Palace, forcing it to retreat, and the court also gave the plaque of 'the first village in the world' for this reason, which is known to everyone in the world."
"How many years ago was that, now it's different from the past, Linyuan Villa is now soaring, and the clouds are soaring, don't you know, now the eldest son of the owner of the water village has married the splendid daughter of the rich merchant Satin Embroidery Village, and the second son has made a marriage with the lord of Anyue County, with this power, it is enough to command the rivers and lakes."
"I've never heard of that." The innkeeper seemed to be addicted to what he heard, and pulled a bench over to continue listening to the strong man.
The strong man drank two bowls, and his interest also increased, and the more he spoke, the higher his voice became, as if he was afraid that people would not hear him, "I still have a secret news, when the county lord of Anyue and the Marquis of Nanyin went to Longwan Mountain to visit Linyuan Villa together, they were originally going to marry the eldest son, but they didn't expect the county lord to fall in love with the second son, and I heard that this county lord of Anyue is the favorite niece of the queen mother." ”
Another strong man also added fuel and vinegar and said: "The second son is personable, talented, and can charm thousands of girls, the eldest son is very serious and serious, of course, the second son is more able to please the county lord, hahaha!" But this is not surprising, after all, the eldest prince will inherit the position of the owner of the village in the future. ”
Cangli's dishes have been served, but Wuya suddenly has no mood to eat, she pricked up her ears to listen to the conversation at the next table, for fear of missing any important information, she is very sad, the proud home in her memory, let her suddenly have a sense of distance, feel that she is an insignificant outsider, she doesn't know her father's birthday, she doesn't know anything about the eldest brother's wedding, the second brother no longer waits for her to have another woman, they ruthlessly throw themselves in the Kun Hades Palace, I'm afraid they have forgotten Ya'er, Thinking of this, in an instant, endless tears almost fell out.
"I'm full, let's go rest first." Helplessly left his seat and walked to the back hall. In the past few years, she hadn't heard a single bit of news about Linyuan Villa, as if she was completely cut off from that place, and now she suddenly had a thorn in her heart. After returning to the room, Wu Ya lay down, and soon Yuxi also came in, and then faintly heard the sound of those strong men in the hall drinking loudly in his sleep, and then there was endless silence.
In the second half of the night, the surrounding snoring came and went, Wuya was so hungry that she couldn't sleep, she regretted not having dinner, and now she didn't feel sleepy at all, the more hungry she was, the more awake she became, tossing and turning, and almost a little motivation prompted her to get up and find something to eat.
Suddenly, there was a "squeak~" sound, as if it was the sound of secretly opening the door, is there a thief? Wuya pricked up his ears, his heart beat faster, and he noticed new movements, and then there was movement in the room next to him, it was the sound of opening the box, could it be that someone was going to steal the birthday gift. Wuya looked at the opposite wall with wide eyes, only to see a different light lit up, and it dimmed again in an instant.
At this time, the snoring of those strong men was like thunder, and they must not have been noticed. Wuya couldn't sink anymore, tiptoed up to get up, didn't alarm Yuxi, who was sleeping on the side, and secretly opened the gate and slipped out.
There was no movement in the next room, the doors and windows were closed, could it be that he was hungry and hallucinating? Impossible, Wuya was awake at the moment, and Yin Yin heard the sound just now.
"Lord!"
"Give it back."
"I'm just curious, just to see......"
"Again, I don't want to say it a second time."
"Lord! The life of the brothers has been really sad all these years, the Linyuan Villa has taken advantage of the world, and I have fallen to this point, I am really unwilling, these things should have been ours. ”
"Remember that you are a member of the Kun Hades Palace, what to do and what not to do."
This conversation took place in the corner of the room, and was heard clearly by Wuya, and the two people who spoke were Cangli and the owner of the inn, and it turned out that this boss was actually a stranger. Perhaps the frightening Zongheng Qianmo has not disbanded and retired at all, and has always been under the control of Cangli.
