Chapter 159: Confidant

Because of the affairs of the winery, Xia Zhi was so excited that he fell asleep in the middle of the night. The next day, with dark circles under his eyes, he followed Wen Xian out of the door.

Wen Xian didn't take Zhu San with her this time, so she and Xia Zhi went by themselves.

This morning's Ruyi Wine Shop is still the same as in the past, with only one shopkeeper cleaning up in the store.

It's just that Wen Xian's sharp eyes found that the ground at the door was brighter, and the store door was cleaner.

Seeing Wen Xian and Xia Zhi coming, the shopkeeper hurriedly greeted him and said with a smile: "The two sons are here, and my shopkeeper has been waiting in the backyard for a long time." ”

It's probably the shopkeeper's rare jars of daughter red, and the price will be much more expensive.

Therefore, after the shopkeeper heard that someone wanted to buy this wine yesterday, he paid so much attention to it and asked him to clean the house three times.

Wen Xian nodded and said, "I'm tired of leading the way." ”

She could see that this shopkeeper really didn't know anything, probably just to confuse the enemy.

The shopkeeper hurriedly put down the handkerchief in his hand, took the person to the backyard, and then turned around and went back to the shop in front.

In the courtyard at this moment, there is a man and a woman playing Go.

Wen Xian watched from a distance, although the two of them were very calm on their faces, their minds were not on the chessboard at all.

Especially the woman facing them, her eyes would glance at her and Xia Zhi from time to time.

Seeing the two of them coming in, the two of them didn't get up, the man who was only facing away from them turned his head to look at it, and then said leisurely: "Is it the two of you who want to buy a five-year daughter Hong?" ”

He was very disappointed in his heart, and thought that the master had returned, but he didn't expect it to be two men.

Yes, the master has been buried in the sea, and there are no bones left, what is he still looking forward to?

"Wrong." Xia Zhi took a step forward and said in his own voice, "What I want to buy is the five-year daughter red buried under the osmanthus tree, buy five altars, don't have less, and don't want it if it's not under the osmanthus tree." ”

"Click~", the chess pieces fell to the ground.

The two of them, who were originally very calm, stood up suddenly, looking at Xia Zhi a little helpless and excited.

Then, the man forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart and said: "It just so happens that there are indeed five altars, as for the price, please move into the house to check it first and then talk about it." ”

Xia Zhi nodded, holding back tears and said, "Okay." ”

She is not mistaken, she is indeed an old man, and she is her confidant.

Seeing this, Wen Xian didn't say anything more, and went into the house with them. But soon she stepped back and leaned against the door and waited.

She left the space to Xia Zhi and the others, and she helped at the door to watch the wind.

After waiting for about half an hour, Xia Zhi came out with red eyes, and he was still holding two altars of daughter Hong in his arms.

"Let's go." She whispered, "We're done, there's nothing more to explain." ”

Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "You still want to go back with me?" ”

She thought that Xia Zhi would most likely stay when he found his henchman.

After all, if you have a life of fine clothes and food, why bother to go back to that desert island to live a farm life.

However, Xia Zhi nodded and said, "Of course I want to go back, I want to stay with you." ”

She has already confessed everything that should be explained, and then, her people will do what she tells them outside.

She only needs to come back from time to time to show up and get some supplies.

Wen Xian raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, let's go." ”

No matter what Xia Zhi's intentions were, she respected and understood.

Moreover, she was actually not at ease if she left Xia Zhi here alone.

At least, it will take a while to observe, and when it proves that these things outside are not at all dangerous to Xia Zhi's life.

……

The trip to Fucheng was quite smooth, and early the next morning, Wen Xian and the others followed Zhu Qing and embarked on the road to the county seat.

It takes half a day to get from Fucheng to the county, so you don't have to rush too much. Therefore, the speed of the carriage slowed down, and Wen Xian also had time to enjoy the scenery along the way.

It's a pity that the scenery along the way is not so pretty.

In addition to the lush meadows and woods on both sides, there is a dusty official road.

From time to time, you will see a few hungry people digging wild vegetables on the side of the road.

Wen Xian actually doesn't understand very much, Guanping Mansion, a house near the sea, can find a beach to catch the sea, and you can eat a full meal, why there are occasional disaster victims.

She didn't understand, but she didn't think about changing anything. It's none of her business, and it's not her responsibility to do anything.

After getting tired of seeing the same scenery, Wen Xian leaned in the carriage and closed her eyes to recuperate.

After a long time, she suddenly opened her eyes, opened the window and looked back.

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Xia Zhi was puzzled, "But you want to go out and have fun?" ”

Wen Xian closed the window and sat down, and then said softly: "We are being followed." ”

From the time she left the city, she had the illusion of being followed. Just now this delusion is getting heavier and heavier, and she is shocked, maybe it is not an illusion.

"Tracking?" Xia Zhi's pupils shrank, and he couldn't help but hold her hand and said, "What now?" ”

There are many possibilities for being followed, but if you are really tracked, the end result is nothing more than two, the bad and the good.

If it's bad, then they're in danger.

Wen Xian patted her hand and said comfortingly: "Don't be impatient, I'll let Zhu San drive the carriage into the woods later, I want to see who it is." ”

Who is so patient that he followed the road from Fucheng for an hour without taking action.

After speaking, she got up and walked out of the carriage and whispered a few words to Zhu San.

After she returned to the carriage and sat down, Zhu San increased her speed and overtook the carriage in front of her.

It's just that when no one saw the carriage intersecting, Zhu San quietly gestured to Zhu Wu.

Zhu Wu's eyes condensed slightly, and he became nervous. Taking advantage of the sound of the carriage, he quickly and whispered to Zhu Qing in the car.

After getting Zhu Qing's permission, he drove behind Zhu San and drove towards the woods.

A quarter of an hour later, Wen Xian and Xia Zhi lay on their stomachs on a stout tree, staring down with bated breath.

And Zhu Qing and Zhu Wu were standing lightly on the treetops of another tree. It seems that this little difficulty is nothing to them.

And Zhu San watched the carriage at the place where the carriage was hidden not far away.

The forest was quiet, except for the sound of birds, the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, and the occasional sound of acquaintance.

In the middle of summer, it was cool in the woods, so Wen Xian didn't feel that time was difficult.

According to her estimates, the people who followed them would arrive at the scene in five minutes at most.

Whether it's a human or a ghost, you'll be able to see it later.

Sure enough, within five minutes, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard outside the woods.

After a while, two men on horseback appeared in Wen Xian's field of vision.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, if she remembered correctly, one of them should be the person from the house opposite the back door of the Sun Pavilion in Fucheng.

She went back to Xia Zhi that day and had a relationship at the door.

But that's all she did, and she hasn't seen the man since.

Thank you for the monthly pass of 'slowly seeming', than the heart~
