76. Explore the cottage at night
Between the sky and the earth, there is a vast expanse of white, and snowflakes are falling from the sky.
The north wind was cold and bitterly cold.
The two figures chose a hidden place to stop, squinted slightly and looked ahead, only to see a building interspersed in the snow-covered mountainside.
"This is Qingshan Village."
In the evening, the two set off from Shenjia Village all the way to the east, and arrived at the foot of Qingshanzhai in less than an hour.
Such a speed made Shen Xingluo sigh at the wonderful use of skis again.
"According to the location that Zhuang Kun said, it is indeed here."
Perhaps because of the heavy snow for a long time, the magnificent Qingshan Village in Zhuang Kun's mouth does not look so majestic, but rather a little depressed.
Or maybe it's because there's no one?
"Speaking of which, what kind of person is that second master?"
The eldest and the third have all seen it, but it is very strange not to see the second child, and the owner of the village led 150 people out for a month and didn't find it, isn't it a little unreasonable?
"A prodigal who knows nothing but eat, drink, and be merry."
"How could the big boss allow such a person to exist?"
"His own brother."
β.β
Well, a small bandit village can also be crony.
Cheng Xi shook his head and sighed, It's really inseparable from human affection.
It is estimated that the descendants of Yan and Huang will not be able to escape the shackles of the word "human favor" in their lives.
"Shall we go in after dark?"
"Okay."
It was already evening, and it was soon getting dark.
The two took off their skis and stored them in a hidden place, and took advantage of the darkness to enter the most magnificent mansion in the cottage.
Because of the two "expeditions" before and after, there are only more than 50 people up and down the huge cottage.
Excluding the old and the young, there are less than 20 people who can resist, which can be said to be extremely pitiful.
Perhaps this is also the reason why they did not go down the mountain to find the backbone of the main heart - the heart is more than enough but the strength is insufficient.
"According to the map, the latter should be Zhuang Kun's residence."
As soon as Shen Xingluo's words fell, he heard an extremely arrogant male voice outside the house, followed by a cry of pain.
"Oops! You can't be like this, you can't go inβ"
"Fuck off! I dare to stop it, who gave you the guts? Call me! β
There was a banging sound one after another, and from time to time there was a muffled grunt, and after a while, it died down.
"Second master, fainted."
"So unbeaten?"
Xu Jian snorted coldly, "Throw him out for me, so as not to hinder my big affairs." β
"These two masters, thrown out on such a cold day, I'm afraid I will lose half of my life."
"Phew! Zhuang Kun has been gone for so long and hasn't come back, maybe he has died outside, I'm afraid of what he will do! β
Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi leaned between the two eaves, and saw a person with very vain footsteps pushing the door in, and then a woman's screams and insults sounded inside.
You don't have to guess what's going on.
Two people: "."
"Ahem, I remember that Zhuang Kun left the letter in his wife's house?"
"The lady has a good memory."
"That Now"
Do you wait for them to get in, or do you want to get in now?
If you touch it now, you might see something inappropriate for children, but if you waitβit's only more embarrassing!
It was the first time for Cheng Xi to encounter such a dilemma.
However, when she was shocked, Shen Xingluo kicked the ball back.
"Everything is up to the lady."
Cheng Xi's eyes widened and he scratched him fiercely.
You're a real dog!
Sure enough, men are unreliable existences.
"Go!"
Cheng Xi almost gritted his teeth and spit out a word.
Is she the kind of person who can't be saved when she dies?
Although Cheng Xi didn't know what role Zhuang Kun's wife was, the man had come to an end to Xu Jian's job.
Shen Xingluo chuckled lightly and jumped down from the eaves first.
Cheng Xi followed closely.
The two figures stopped outside the room, and they could clearly see through the cracks due to the shoddy soundproofing and anti-peeping aspects of the ancient windows.
Cheng Xi only had time to see Xu Jian's figure, and his eyes were blindfolded by a pair of big hands.
"Don't look."
There was a low voice in his ears, a little hoarse.
Shen Xingluo picked up a stone by the window with his other hand, poured internal force and threw it into the house.
A negligible sound of breaking the air sounded, and the people in the room slammed to the end, followed by a woman's scream.
Cheng Xi's eyes couldn't see, but the rest of his senses were more acute.
Behind him, his chest heaved slightly, and the tips of his ears could clearly hear the sound of steady breathing.
She blinked her eyes slightly in discomfort, and the next moment she saw light again.
Ay? That hand seems to be dodging a little fast?
Shen Xingluo had already turned his head away, revealing only a slightly whitish neck.
"Let's go."
The two walked in openly, and in order to avoid scaring the people in the house, they also knocked on the wooden door.
But the woman in the door was still frightened.
She held a dagger tightly in her right hand, at first at Xu Jian, who had fainted, and when she saw them come in, she pointed the tip of the knife at the door.
"Who are you?"
"Entrusted by Zhuang Kun, come and pick up something."
Cheng Xi began to flicker seriously, "You are his wife, right?" Sure enough, it's a rare beauty. β
"Y-Where is he?"
"It's okay to be in a safe place to eat, drink and sleep."
She assured that everything she said was true.
The woman's pear blossom with rain showed a little joy and happiness, and then she caught a glimpse of the man who passed out next to her, and her face quickly darkened in an instant.
"What do you want?"
"A wooden box for letters."
The process of getting the evidence went smoothly, and the woman quickly took the wooden box and handed it to them, without saying a word of superfluous questioning.
This made Cheng Xi think that this girl was a fairy who did not eat fireworks in the world - in fact, her appearance tended to be charming, and she did not match the fireworks that did not eat the world at all.
"Aren't you afraid we'll lie to you?"
The woman's eyes were determined, "You look like good people." β
Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi: "."
But your husband is not a good person, girl, is your logic really okay?
"Then let's go, what to do with this person is yours."
Cheng Xi pointed to Xu Jian, who was slumped to the side, and walked out of the house without looking back.
As for Zhuang Kun's woman?
A woman who dares to pick up a dagger and can still live in a mountain bandit village has a certain lethality at some point, even if it seems to be non-aggressive.
There was no need for the two of them to worry about it at all.
From the moment they stepped out of that house, Xu Jian's fate had already been decided.
It was very smooth to come out of Qingshan Village, and there were few people patrolling in the village on a cold night, and it was impossible to find that two masters broke in.
The way back was still very smooth, and the road was much faster because I had already figured out the road when I came.
