Yu Ren, who was asleep, felt a few drops of water dripping from the top of his head, he thought it was raining, and quickly opened his eyes. It turned out to be a small bird stepping on the dew on the leaves overhead.

Yu Ren opened his eyes and looked at the sun in the sky, it was estimated that it was already the hour. Quickly got up from the ground and stretched. After arguing around again, Yu Ren couldn't help but laugh dumbly.

I saw a small corner of the blue brick wall in a forest not far in front of me. Last night, I looked for Wentao Courtyard, which I didn't find in the middle of the night, but I didn't expect it to be so close to me. Yu Ren patted the dust on his body, straightened his clothes again, and walked towards the green wall.

I don't know if Li Ying is still in Wentao Courtyard at this time, Yu Ren thought. Still, that's okay. Even if Li Ying is not there, as long as he finds Qu Jing, he will definitely be able to bring himself to Li Ying. Since the last time he saw Li Ying in Li Zhuang, Yu Ren has not seen her again.

Intuition told Yu Ren that Li Ying must be angry. Otherwise, she would never have gone unseen for so long. However, Yu Ren didn't know what the problem was. Vaguely, Yu Ren guessed that it should be related to Zhao Rui. But Yu Ren believes that he and Zhao Rui are innocent. Therefore, he wanted to find Li Ying and explain it to her face to face.

Yu Renzheng was walking away, thinking about how to explain to Li Ying if he saw her for a while, but suddenly saw a scene that he didn't expect.

The Wentao Courtyard in front of him is no longer the same as when he came last time, the tall gatehouse has collapsed in half, and through the collapsed courtyard wall, you can directly see the mess in the courtyard. Of all the rooms, none of them were in good condition. There was a mess everywhere, and in some places there were traces of fire.

In the midst of the ruins, there were still many broken swords, and between the rubble were large patches of dried blood.

Yu Ren was completely stunned by the scene in front of him, he didn't know what was going on. Looking at this scene, it seems that this place must have experienced a fierce battle not long ago.

But who will do it? Could it be an official government, it doesn't seem like it? If it was done by the government, it is impossible that there would be no news in Hangzhou. Why Cao An, none of them mentioned this matter to him. If it weren't for the government, the only possibility would be the Xu family.

On the southeast coast, in addition to the government, only the Xu family has such strength and can compete with the Li family. But why did Xu Xinsu do this? Yu Ren couldn't figure it out.

Although Yu Ren and Xu Xinsu had never met, he still heard some things about him from other people's mouths. It is said that this person has a gentle personality and is a delicate character, but his assertiveness is not strong, and his personality is still a little weak. So there's a lack of domineering.

Every time he discussed things with Li Ying, most of them were proposed by Li Ying, and he nodded.

How could such a person suddenly carry out such a blow to the Li family! Yu Ren didn't believe it. However, if it weren't for Xu Xinsu's actions, who else would have the strength to dare to openly oppose the Li family and destroy their most important stronghold in Hangzhou.

Just when Yu Ren couldn't think about the result, he suddenly heard a sound of footsteps in the distance. Yu Ren was startled and quickly hid behind a big tree.

I saw three catchers with knives coming down the mountain. The three of them walked and chatted at the same time.

"Second brother, you said that the prefect asked us to wander around this abandoned courtyard early in the morning, what's the use! If you want to catch pirates, send a ship to the sea to catch them! Can't pirates still be able to get to our city? A thin, black-faced catcher complained.

Another tall and small-eyed catcher said, "Old Five, you don't understand this!" Do you think this is just an ordinary deserted garden? You're wrong, I'll hear the headcatcher. This was originally a stronghold of the pirate giants in our city of Hangzhou. A few days ago, I heard that there was a sudden fight in their nest, and as a result, this place was destroyed.

The prefect asked our brothers to patrol this area so that we could pay attention to the approaching person. When he saw a suspicious person, he took him back to the house.

The prefect said that since it was an important stronghold for pirates, although it was abandoned a few days ago, it was inevitable that ill-informed pirates would still come here. Therefore, our mission is to catch these pirates who have been sent to the door. Got it! ”

When Yu Ren heard this, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, I saw the opportunity quickly, if I let these three catchers see me, it would be a big problem.

After the three catchers left quickly, Yu Ren hurriedly and quietly slipped down the mountain. Although he wanted to know what happened to Wen Taoyuan, he didn't dare to go to the Li family for the time being. And apart from Wentao Academy, he really didn't know what contact point the Li family had in Hangzhou.

What reassured Yu Ren was that although Wentao Courtyard looked like it had just gone through a battle, there were no dead people in sight, and there were no newly buried corpses nearby. This shows that there were not many casualties. Yu Ren believes that with Li Ying's wit, and so many brave men under her. Even if someone raids and wants to get out of the way, it's not difficult. Therefore, Yu Ren is not too worried about Li Ying's safety.

It was noon when Yu Ren returned to the inn, and Zhao Ruizheng sent people around to look for him. Suddenly seeing him back, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Whoa! You're not a kid anymore, so you don't say hello when you go out. Everyone thinks something happened to you! When Yun'er saw Yu Ren coming back, she couldn't help but complain first.

"I'm sorry to worry about me. I woke up early in the morning and walked out for a walk. Seeing that everyone hadn't gotten up yet, I didn't say anything. Yu Ren lied.

"Going out for a walk? You're talking lightly. Don't you know how much they hate you now? Aren't you afraid that they will secretly harm you? Say you're not sensible, you're still not convinced! "Yun'er is like this, she is unforgiving, even for an idol like Yu Ren, who is in her mind. However, this also shows that they are really in a hurry.

"Alright, alright! It's good to be back, it's good to be back! However, next time Brother Yu goes out, it's best not to be alone. I heard that Li Xianzhong put down his words before leaving, saying that he wanted to make Brother Yu look good. Although it is likely that his words are just to save face, but we can't help but be prepared! Zhao Rui came over to play the round.

"I see." In front of Zhao Rui, for some reason, Yu Ren often has the illusion that he is a child.

Two days later, a large crowd of people gathered in an open space in Wushan Square.

Yu Ren and Zhao Rui are also among them. A hot air balloon is being placed in the middle of the square. Coal was burning in the brazier inside the balloon, and the basket of the balloon was temporarily tied with rope to three wooden posts nailed to the ground. Yu Ren stood by the hot air balloon and shouted to the crowd of onlookers.

"Friends, you haven't seen this before! It's called a hot air balloon, and I and a few friends have recently developed it. The magic of it is that it can take us to the sky like birds, and it can also come down again.

Originally, we made this thing just to fulfill a wish and realize a dream. However, it was too expensive to research this thing, and we wanted to continue to work on better flying machines. So, now I'm going to take it out and take it to the heavens. Ten taels of silver per person each time, and we guarantee that he will fly in the sky for half an hour. ”

There was a commotion from the crowd of onlookers, no one had ever heard of it, and there was something that could take people to heaven. However, everyone didn't believe that this strange thing could really bring people to the sky.

Someone accused Yu Ren of bragging. There are also many people who recognize Yu Ren as the person who competed with Wansong Academy on behalf of the Donglin Party that day, so there are a group of supporters.

Seeing that the crowd around him suddenly became noisy, Yu Ren motioned for everyone to be quiet. Then he said to the crowd, "I know people don't believe me. It's okay, you can't be blamed for that. As the saying goes: hearing is false, seeing is believing. Now I'm in charge of the hot air balloon and I'm going on an air trip with a friend of mine. ”

After speaking, Yu Ren stepped into the bamboo basket of the hot air balloon first. Then, he gestured to Zhao Rui next to him.
