Chapter 19: The housekeeper blocks the way
CHAPTER XIX
Zizhu's words made Lin Anyan a little confused for a while.
"What do you mean, where did Qi Liyun go?"
Zizhu saw that Lin Anyan didn't seem to know anything, so he had to tell everything he had seen and heard in the morning.
"Daisy Hexiang and I searched around, and finally found out that someone saw Qi Liyun running all the way to the library this morning. ”
"When we rushed to the library building, only the chief housekeeper Zhang Cai and Uncle Yuan Yi were there, saying that someone had already healed Du Juan's internal injuries and carried him to the nearest old man's courtyard to recuperate. ”
Then the chief housekeeper told me that Qi Liyun saw that the cuckoo was fine, and left the Lin Mansion through the back door without saying anything. When the lord found out, he sent a lot of people to chase him, but they haven't come back yet. ”
After listening to Zizhu's words, Lin Anyan suddenly slapped his palm on the desk in anger and said:
"What kind of food is the Lin Mansion Nursing Home for, and a woman without internal strength can't stop it?"
Saying that, without waiting for Zizhu to react, Lin Anyan endured the severe pain and put on his shoes and ran out.
Zizhu wanted to catch up, but as soon as she left the door, she heard a loud noise coming from the house behind her.
Looking back, I saw that the desk carved out of fine Yunnan iron wood as a whole was actually split in two and fell to the ground.
The wound on Lin Anyan's foot had not yet been bandaged, and it was very painful to be rubbed by the foot cloth at the moment, but he couldn't care about it much.
He knew that every corner of this Jingbei City was plastered with the arrest documents of Qi Liyun and her senior brothers and sisters.
Although the portrait on the document was face-covered, Qi Liyun's eyebrows and eyes were completely depicted.
Those eyebrows and eyes, even if a woman sees it, she is excited, just ask the people on the street who can't recognize it?
Worried about Du Juan's body and worried about Qi Liyun being arrested outside, Lin Anyan's thoughts were extremely confused at the moment, so much so that he didn't even notice that it took nearly an hour to run from Baihualou to the back gate of Lin Mansion on weekdays, but now he finished running in half an hour.
When he came to the back door, Lin Anyan couldn't help but stop, because he saw Zhang Cai, the "Great Butler of the Lin Mansion" in Zizhu's mouth, standing at the door at the moment, holding a big broom and sweeping the floor.
Lin Anyan has always disliked this so-called big housekeeper Zhang Cai.
I heard that after Lin Weige entered the city, he was the first person to follow Lin Weige, and he was the oldest attendant in the Lin Mansion.
However, he is such a big housekeeper, but he always makes things difficult for the women of Baihualou.
On weekdays, when Lin Anyan was there, he still cared about Lin Anyan's face and almost never went to Baihualou.
But every time Lin Anyan went out, even if it was only for a few days, he could hear the complaints of the four women when he came back.
Knowing that the cuckoo knew kung fu, Zhang Cai asked the cuckoo to do manual work and loosen the soil for the entire bamboo forest.
Knowing that Zizhu was kind-hearted, she asked her to rinse all kinds of wild cats and dogs that often climbed over the wall into the Lin Mansion, so as not to make the beast unclean and make the old man sick.
Knowing that Daisy likes to drink tea, he asked Daisy to go to the barren mountains hundreds of miles outside Jingbei City to pick tea by herself, saying that there are some fairy tea leaves that cannot be grown by people.
The most outrageous thing is that once, Zhang Cai saw Hexiang go to Yunying Lake to feed the fish, so he asked Hexiang to change the water for the entire Yunying Lake.
You must know that the widest part of the Cloud Shadow Lake is more than a mile wide, and the center of the lake is bottomless, Lin Anyan has lived here for 20 years, and he never knew that the Cloud Shadow Lake still needs to change the water.
Because of all these things, Lin Anyan turned his face with Zhang Cai more than once.
But every time Zhang Cai said something with a flat face, the housekeeper had to serve the whole family of the Lin Mansion, and he couldn't be special to any subordinate.
In fact, Lin Anyan knew in his heart that he was usually too protective of the women of Baihualou, so that when he was in the Lin Mansion, the four cuckoos were almost equal to Zhang Cai.
So later, when Lin Anyan went out, no matter where he went, no matter who asked about it in the Lin Mansion, he said that he would return in one day, sometimes true and sometimes false, so that Zhang Cai did not dare to act rashly.
However, it is such a big butler who is extremely incompatible with Lin Anyan, and he actually swept the floor at the back door in person at this moment.
Zhang Cai never disdained to do this kind of work.
Lin Anyan knew in his heart that this person sweeping the floor was fake, and I was afraid that it would be true that he was ordered to stop him here.
After all, apart from him, no matter how powerful the masters of the Lin Mansion were, they didn't dare to stop Lin Anyan from doing anything.
"Zhang Cai, I don't care what my father told you, I'm the eldest young master here, you get out of here immediately, dare to stop me from going out, I want you to look good." ”
Hearing Lin Anyan's words, Zhang Cai raised his head, the expression on his face did not change in the slightest, and it was still the smile that anyone who looked at it felt fake.
I only heard Zhang Cai pinching the male duck's throat, and said in a thin voice that made people get goosebumps when he heard it:
"Young master, you also know that I, Zhang Cai, am a waste, I have studied martial arts for forty years, and I have such a small five-fold heaven ability, where can I stop you? But the master does have an order, you go and tell the master, don't be embarrassed. ”
Lin Anyan was already irritable this morning, and Zhang Cai's words at this moment made his anger rise instantly.
It's a little Wuzhongtian, saying this to Lin Anyan, who has never practiced martial arts, isn't it a threat?
For some reason, Lin Anyan suddenly remembered what Qi Liyun had said in the morning.
Isn't that "Invincible Swordsmanship" really so magical, it can make you read the internal strength?
Thinking of it, Lin Anyan couldn't help but sneer from the bottom of his heart.
"Okay, today, the master will try your hand in the fifth heaven. ”
Thinking in his heart, Lin Anyan took three steps and made two steps, and instantly ran in front of Zhang Cai, facing him with a punch.
At this moment, Lin Anyan's movements were so fast and his fists were so fierce that they were far beyond Zhang Cai's imagination, and Zhang Cai, who had no choice but to swing a broom, slapped Lin Anyan's punch hard.
After all, he has been practicing martial arts for forty years, and Lin Anyan has never learned any serious routines, and after one move, he reacted.
I saw Zhang Cai smash the broom at Lin Anyan, and at the moment when Lin Anyan dodged, Zhang Cai put his hands together, and his luck was all over his body, and he slapped it directly.
Lin Anyan saw that the palm was still a foot away from him, but his chest flew out in an instant as if he had been hit by a boulder, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Before Lin Anyan could get up, Zhang Cai followed up with another slap and slapped Lin Anyan directly on the chin.
Poor Lin Anyan's chin, he just received a slap from Qi Liyun last night, and now Zhang Cai is again.
Lin Anyan, who was stunned, only felt that the world was spinning around him, and he was afraid that Zhang Cai was making a move, so he had to swing his fist and fight out of thin air.
However, how could this kind of Wang Baquan hit a person like Zhang Cai, who practiced martial arts, only to see Zhang Cai spot a gap and kick on Lin Anyan's left knee.
Lin Anyan, who was only able to stand up a little just now, faintly heard a click on his left knee, so he couldn't support it anymore and fell to the ground on one knee.
Lin Anyan, who was slightly awakened by the sharp pain in his knees, glared at Zhang Cai, who was smiling.
"Fuck, this bastard has a personal vendetta, right? ”
scolded in his heart, but Lin Anyan had no choice.
These few fights made him clearly realize that what Qi Liyun said was true, and the power of the punch just now made him believe that he definitely had internal strength.
But at the same time, he also understood that in the competition between people who practice martial arts, only internal strength is far from enough, and the moves and routines are indispensable.
I'm afraid that as Qi Liyun said, the reason why he was able to seriously injure the cuckoo in the morning was probably because the cuckoo was defenseless.
But how could he, a person who had read the sword book all night, win against the five-heaven steward in front of him, who had been practicing martial arts for forty years?
Suddenly, Lin Anyan remembered the finger when he accidentally injured the cuckoo in the morning.
That finger seemed to be an understatement, but Lin Anyan vaguely felt that that finger seemed to correspond to a certain move in "Invincible Swordsmanship".
"With the finger as the sword peak and the arm as the hilt, he mobilizes the power of the whole body, and it seems that he can use the sword move empty-handed. ”
Lin Anyan thought in his heart, at this moment, his left knee may not be able to support him to stand up again, but his right leg still has strength, and if he suddenly kicks the ground with one leg, he may be able to have a chance to get close.
A chance, how to stab Zhang Cai?
Lin Anyan closed his eyes and carefully recalled every move in "Invincible Swordsmanship".
"The stars can't fall, and you can't hit it with a single blow. ”
"The cloud sword can't enter the sky, and I'm afraid my own skills can't stab the effect in the book. ”
"Heyou has no fun, he only has one leg to move now, and he can't use such a smart sword move. ”
Zhang Cai on the side looked at Lin Anyan, who was kneeling on one knee and didn't know what he was talking nonsense, with a puzzled expression.
At this moment, he was also hesitating, whether to take the opportunity to take revenge on this arrogant young master on weekdays.
Even, if it were possible, could he have done what he should have done twenty years ago.
Thinking of this, Zhang Cai quickly shook his head.
If the time is not right, he must not do it, not to mention that there is an old man who even he can't figure out the details of it at the moment.
I'm afraid that as long as he leaks a trace of murderous aura, he will be separated in the next second.
However, Zhang Cai didn't know at this moment that Lin Anyan had unconsciously and unconsciously comprehended the profound sword intent that swordsmen might take decades to comprehend.
There is no sword, there is a sword!
However, before Zhang Cai could react, Lin Anyan suddenly opened his eyes.
I saw that his right foot touched the ground, and at a speed that was difficult for ordinary people to catch with the naked eye, he instantly rushed to Zhang Cai's side, stretched out two fingers with his right hand, and stabbed straight at Zhang Cai.
Thinking that Lin Anyan was just as imposing as at the beginning, Zhang Cai didn't think much about it, and punched directly at Lin Anyan's right arm.
However, at the moment when he was about to hit Lin Anyan's arm, Lin Anyan's entire right arm turned dexterously, and he actually bypassed the punch and pointed directly at Zhang Cai's throat.
"Enough!"
This familiar voice made Lin Anyan stop his hand instantly, while Zhang Cai stood in place and didn't dare to move.
He could clearly feel that Lin Anyan's middle finger nail had pierced the skin of his throat.
If Lin Weige's voice sounded even a little late, I am afraid that he would already be a corpse with a throat pierced.
Lin Anyan slowly withdrew his arm and slowly stood up with his left knee.
I don't know if I was excited because of the victory over the Five Heavenly Heavens Zhang Cai or because I was afraid that I almost killed someone just now, Lin Anyan's heart throbbed at this moment.
He looked down at his right hand, the blood on his middle fingernail was so striking.
At this moment, Lin Anyan was covered in mud, the lower part was also obviously bruised, there were blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and the pair of white boots under his feet had already been dyed red because of the bleeding foot injury.
Lin Weige stepped forward with his hands behind his back, frowned and looked at Lin Anyan, and then slapped Zhang Cai in the face.
"Zhang Cai, you are crazy! I asked you to stop An Yan from running around, you dare to do it. ”
At this moment, Zhang Cai's face has long since lost the trademark smirk, replaced by a stunned expression that doesn't know what happened.
He still couldn't believe that he had been practicing martial arts for forty years, and he had just been almost killed by a teenager who had never practiced martial arts.
Seeing that Zhang Cai didn't speak, Lin Weige didn't know why, so he just said get out and let Zhang Cai leave.
It wasn't until Zhang Cai's figure disappeared that Lin Weige turned around, looked at Lin Anyan with a worried face and said:
"An Yan, what's the matter with you, how are your injuries? I'll ask someone to ask for a doctor. ”
However, half of Lin Weige's words did not reach Lin Anyan's ears.
I saw Lin Anyan raise his head, staring at Lin Weige with fiery eyes, slowly raised his hand that was still stained with Zhang Cai's blood, and said in a trembling voice:
"Dad, have you seen it, Dad, I know martial arts, I don't have to go to apprenticeship, you can tell me our family's secrets." ”
