Chapter 257: Trouble
When Jin Yu slashed down with his knife, Wu Jin woke up in his sleep.
His eyes widened, his nose so blocked that he couldn't breathe at all, and he could only open his mouth wide and gasp for air like a fish out of water.
This is the battlefield, you live or die, and no one will be merciful.
The rapid panting gradually subsided, and at the same time, he suddenly understood why the Emperor's anger had been extinguished.
One life, one death.
The emperor has made a plan, the Mo family brothers and sisters, only one will be left, if Mo Lingfeng dies in battle, he will leave Mo Qianlan, and if Mo Lingfeng is alive, he will kill Mo Qianlan.
The secret of the Mo family must be shared by the two brothers and sisters, and it is enough to leave one.
It's a kind of venting, but also a kind of control and deterrence.
After a while, Wu Jin got up, took off the robe from the screen and put it on, squatted down and lifted the heels, walked to the courtyard, scooped out a scoop of cold water, washed his face with a handkerchief, and went to the study.
Lighting the oil lamp, he was about to write the word "Leaf" by a little dim light, when he suddenly stopped his pen and listened to the movement around him quietly.
Not far away, there was the sound of dogs barking, the big locust tree in front of the door "rustling", and the occasional wild cat barking coquettishly, all of which were ordinary sounds.
Wu Jin didn't know if the eyes in the dark were still staring at him, so he secretly took back the word "Leaf" on the tip of the pen.
A quarter of an hour later, he walked back to the table and sat down, suppressed the thousand thoughts in his heart, and wrote: "Death is bitter, and life is bitter." ”
Seven words, not dry or fat, good rhyme, I can't see that he is in a heavy mood at all, but it seems that after worshipping the Buddha in Luodeng Temple today, he has a feeling.
Putting the paper aside, he re-spread the bamboo paper, and said silently: "Dayes, the gentleman will curb evil and promote good, and retire from heaven." ”
Carefully arranging the piece of bamboo paper, he washed his pen and got up, yawned, blew out the oil lamp, and went back to sleep.
A moment later, there was a slight "click" sound from the roof tiles on the roof of the study, and then a slender man in black jumped down from the roof, climbed through the window, walked straight to the table, bent over, and planned to take advantage of the light of day to write down what Wu Jin had written.
The moonlight was unknown tonight, and the handwriting was not clear, so the man in black had to pick it up and look at it carefully.
Then the man in black climbed out of the window again, jumped up the roof from the cornice, and disappeared.
The next day, Wu Jin still did not go to court, dressed neatly, came to the study, and sat in the chair for a long time with his face blank.
He looked weak, unresponsive, and weak in his hands and feet, but his eyes had quickly scanned the bookcase.
The two pages on the bookcase shifted slightly, as if they had been blown by a breeze.
He picked up the paper he had written down, formed a ball in his hand, threw it into the slag hopper, folded the seven words together, put them together with the reply to Wu Yi, put them in his arms, and went out to send the letter.
He first went to the dock boat to buy a few fashionable snacks, handed over the thin piece of paper to Shi Yuan's henchman, and then took the dim sum to the delivery shop, and sent the dim sum to Wu Yi with a letter.
Shi Yuan's henchmen hid the simple piece of paper in his arms, went to Jeju Wharf with the ship, and then sent it to Kuanju as soon as possible.
On the tenth day of July, Liu Boyu was at home in Kuanzhou City.
Liu Boyu sat firmly in the study, pinched a handful of silver tickets in his left hand, put his right index finger on his tongue and licked it, counted the silver tickets, and then put them in the money box.
Su Mingquan crossed the threshold and came in from outside: "Uncle, this little pepper is sold for a sky-high price!" The more chaotic it is, the more we earn! Uncle, if you listen to me and go to Miss Mo to ask for a few ways, then we won't make any money. ”
When Liu Boyu heard the words "Miss Mo", she felt uncomfortable from the bottom of her heart, and said without raising her head: "She is not the God of Wealth, she is the King of Hades, don't even provoke the little ghosts under her hands." ”
Su Mingquan took out a rolled-up silver ticket from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Boyu: "Really don't run away this month?" ”
"Kill you." Liu Boyu took the silver tickets, unfolded them one by one, and flattened them in the money box.
The silver ticket was brand new, and the smell of the ink on it was exceptionally fragrant, Liu Boyu lowered his head and sniffed it, feeling very happy.
Grabbing a handful of melon seeds, he peeled them one by one in the palm of his hand, and listened to Su Mingquan spit out his crooked ideas.
Su Mingquan's eyebrows fluttered: "Now almost all of the Jin Yu are outside the fortress, no matter which road we take, it is unimpeded, if we go out at this time, not only can we earn silver, but we can also explore several more roads!" ”
Liu Boyu ate a small handful of melon seeds: "What if you die?" ”
"My belongings are under the bed, under the third brick in the second row......"
Liu Boyu interrupted him: "Give me all flowers?" ”
Su Mingquan shook his head: "You burn it for me." ”
Liu Boyu picked up the teacup, only to find that he had drunk a lot, and at the same time he had been sitting in the study for too long, and he wanted to pee, so he got up and walked out, and when he passed by Su Mingquan, he patted him on the shoulder: "There are hawthorn strips on the table, eat some, that thing can't burn." ”
Su Mingquan thought about it too, and stepped forward to eat hawthorn strips.
Liu Boyu gagged his mouth, his ears were cleared, he hummed a little song and walked out, stepped down three stone steps with one foot, and a subordinate suddenly rushed over from under the corridor and said loudly: "Uncle, Cheng Sanye is coming to make trouble, we can't stop it."
At the same time, there were bursts of shouting and cheering outside the courtyard gate, which was mixed with Cheng Ting's loud voice: "Liu Boyu! Do you have the courage to sell rotten peppercorns, but don't you have the courage to meet the master? Get out of here! ”
Liu Boyu was urinating, so he had to say loudly: "Third Master later, I'll come when I go!" ”
Cheng Ting heard the sound and kicked open the courtyard door: "Fuck your mother!" Stand for the master! ”
Cheng Ting is similar to his father Cheng Taishan, both are military generals wearing literati skins, and they hit the wall with a kick of the door, and with a dozen or so followers behind him, they swarmed into the courtyard.
Liu Boyu just stepped out with one foot, and when he saw Cheng Ting menacing, his heart immediately jumped, and he turned his head and shouted: "Xiao Su!" ”
Su Mingquan puffed out his cheeks and ran to Liu Boyu's side, holding the sharp knife on his waist with one hand, staring at Cheng Ting, who was constantly approaching Liu Boyu.
Cheng Ting, a big bird with wings hanging all year round, was furious at this moment, showing his claws, and fiercely chattered Liu Boyu.
Liu Boyu squeezed out a smiling face: "Cheng Sanye, the pepper is bad, I will compensate you." ”
He could see that Cheng Ting's intention was not for peppercorn, but just an excuse to break in.
Cheng Ting didn't say a word, just walked into the study, Liu Boyu stretched out his hand to stop him: "Cheng Sanye, this is the study, it is inconvenient to entertain distinguished guests, I will take you to the front." ”
He shouted at the people outside, "Someone! Take Cheng Sanye to the front yard! ”
After shouting deafeningly, he piled a polite smirk on his round face: "Third master, please." ”
The subordinates, who were still at a loss, stepped forward immediately after receiving Liu Boyu's orders, surrounded Cheng Ting, and at the same time pressed his waist with his hand.
However, the third master is a bloody man, and he is not afraid of this little wind and waves, and the entourage brought by the bloody man also has a few hard bones, and he secretly hides a knife, and he is not afraid to do it at all.
