Chapter 65: Heavy Snow Covers the Mountain

The lantern in the middle of the round table was suddenly lit.

The red light reflected on the bodies of the people behind the round table, and half of their faces were hidden in the shadows, and their expressions were gloomy.

No one answered Jiang Xie's words, and they all coincidentally concealed the real purpose of this trip.

Jiang Xie turned his head, his eyes fell on Huo Yijun's body, and asked in a deep voice: "Little boy, you have an invitation, you said before that you wanted to come to Sancun Villa to pick up things, is this the purpose of your coming here?" ”

The eyes of the people present were focused on Huo Yijun's body, and anticipation and anxiety were intertwined.

Huo Yijun said calmly: "My grandfather asked me to come, saying that he was picking up something, and that thing was hidden in the Three Inch Villa." ”

When it came to 'fetching something', the crowd apparently reacted a little, but it was quickly overshadowed by other actions.

"Since it's to pick up something, then let's go find it as soon as possible and get out of here." Jiang Xie got up, leaned forward, and put his hands on the back of the chair.

Huo Yijun didn't plan to stay here for a long time, so he got up and left with Jiang Xie.

The rest of the people were still sitting motionless, facing the lantern on the table, their expressions attentive, revealing an indescribable strangeness.

"Little boy, do you know where the thing is?" Jiang Xie walked to the bedroom inside, and the further he went, the darker his vision became.

"I don't know."

"Then we have to rummage through this villa, what Huo Ge Lao asked you to take must be a rare object."

Jiang Xie walked in front, and the three people behind followed, and before entering the door of the side room, he suddenly stopped, turned around and leaned against the wall with his arms folded, and asked again: "Little boy, what do you think is the purpose of their coming?" ”

Huo Yijun smiled lightly: "We don't seem to need to know what purpose they are here, could it be that Jiang Sizheng thinks that there are Jiangyang thieves among these people?" Do you think they came here to conspire? ”

"I didn't say that." Jiang Xie turned his head and stretched.

Huo Yijun approached him, stared into his eyes, and said seriously: "I still have some discoveries, and when I say the three words 'take things', the people on the field obviously have changed differently. ”

The white-bearded old man was licking his lips and staring at her, while the man with a loud voice was blinking his eyes, and the veiled lady was rushing towards her husband Pang Hei with her back to Huo Yijun, these were all defensive gestures.

"As for the rest of Wang Weiqing is bowing his head and arranging his sleeves, the knife guest Qianhu is repeating the action of wiping the knife, and the scholar is stopping the action of turning the book in his hand, staring at me with gloomy eyes, judging from these subtle movements, these people are very nervous."

Ashiyu shrugged his shoulders lightly and joined the discussion: "What does this mean?" ”

"The defensive posture is hostile to me, and I am nervous because I hit their purpose, so if I guess correctly, these people should be here to pick up things like me, but there is only one thing, so these people have different attitudes towards me, one more person is more competition, not to mention that I brought three unrelated people."

After listening to this, Xiang Xiu slapped his face and said with a smile: "Things seem to be getting more and more interesting, so many people are looking for a thing, that thing must be a baby!" ”

"Let's find out!"

"Mallow girl, let's go find it over there!"

Xiang Xiu took Mallow's hand and was about to drag them away, so frightened that Mallow hid behind Huo Yijun and looked at him incomprehensibly.

Huo Yijun knew that the vision of this room was too dim compared to other rooms, and she couldn't see the other party's speech clearly.

So she compared to the mallow sign language: You and Lord Xiangxiu go over there to look for something together, pay attention to see if there are any dark rooms and secret rooms, he doesn't mean to offend you, don't worry.

Xiang Xiu was suddenly surprised: "No wonder Mallow didn't speak all the way, I always thought it was because she was cold, it turned out to be ...... Can't she hear? ”

"Mallow can't hear it, but she understands lip language, this place is too dark for her to see the conversation clearly, please forgive me." Huo Yijun explained to her.

Sokyu immediately apologized to the mallow and pulled her to a bright place to look for it.

Jiang Xie and Huo Yijun were about to go inside, but suddenly they heard the lobby door open, and the faint sound of conversation wafted through.

"It should be the last person to receive the invitation to show up, let's go check it out."

The two of them came out of the inner room, and around the screen, they saw a fat man walking over with a square plate, which was full of steaming dishes.

"You've been waiting for a long time, the dish is ready, and we can eat."

When he was serving the food, Jiang Xie and others came over to look at him: "Are you from the villa?" ”

The fat man turned around, a smile froze on his face, and after seeing the person who came, he cleared his throat and said: "I used to be the cook of the villa, and now I am a butcher, boy, you also received an invitation here?" ”

Jiang Xie nodded.

The fat man suddenly grinned again: "That's a good feeling, you can also sit down and eat together, if the chairs are not enough, move a few more, let's share a table, it's snowing outside, the trestle bridge behind the mountain is broken, and the snow covers the mountain and I don't know when I can go out." ”

"Heavy snow on the mountain?" Huo Yijun's eyes widened.

The fat cook nodded: "Well, the bad news is that the snow has closed the mountain, we have cut off contact with the outside world, it is impossible to rescue us, the good news is that I happened to buy food, vegetables and fruits when I went up the mountain, and you can just pay the restaurant price after eating." ”

"As long as you pay me, you won't be hungry on this snowy day."
