Less than two moments later, Ji Cha changed into a servant's clothes and returned to the study, and threw another one to Hong Chen.

When Hong Chen went to change his clothes behind the screen, Ji Cha looked at Mrs. Dai's expression was different from before, her eyebrows were deep, and she looked melancholy, only thinking that Mrs. Dai had been forced to calm down before, but now she was finally afraid, and couldn't help but smile secretly, thinking: "Haha, I know that the tea picker is famous, she is just a general's wife, where can she not be afraid?" opened his mouth and pretended to comfort: "Oh, I said Mrs. Dai, you don't have to be too afraid, my tea picker is not a person who does not speak of credibility." As long as Dai Wanshan obediently hands over the snow drinking knife and snake sword, you will be fine with a single cold hair. ”

Mrs. Dai kept silent, her heart was full of worries about Zhong Huozi, and she didn't listen to Ji Cha's words at all.

Ji Cha thought that Mrs. Dai was so scared that she didn't even dare to say a word, and she was even more proud in her heart. went around behind the screen, patted Hong Chen, who was lifting his pants and belt, on the shoulder, and said, "You guard Mrs. Dai tonight, don't let her go out, and don't let her communicate with other people." I'll sleep all night and wait until the day when we can change shifts. ”

The night was getting deeper and deeper, and gradually all that came from outside was the whining of the early autumn wind, and in the study there was only the sound of Ji Cha's even breathing after falling asleep and the sound of Mrs. Dai turning the paperwork from time to time. Hong Chen rested a lot yesterday, and he didn't feel sleepy when he sat on the chair, but he felt bored, so he stared at Mrs. Dai.

I saw that her mind didn't seem to be very focused on dealing with paperwork, sometimes she dipped her pen in ink, and hung on the paper for a long time; sometimes she dropped the pen, but the pen stopped before she finished writing, and slowly a large circle of ink faded on the paper; and once she added water to grind the ink, spilled water on the table, and hurriedly cleaned it up for a while.

Hong Chen asked, "Mrs. Dai, do you have something on your mind?"

Mrs. Dai stopped her hand to organize the paperwork, sat next to the case, lowered her head, and let out a long sigh, but did not mention a word to Hong Chen. In her heart, she had regarded Zhong Huozi and the tea picker as a bamboo cutter, and she refused to tell Hong Chen what she thought. I was only worried about what to do in order to avoid the retaliation from Zhong Huozi.

She didn't tell Hong Chen that when Dai Wanshan and others coaxed the body of the high-ranking Demon Sect surnamed Zhong, Dai Wanshan picked his head and joined the army with merit, and later was named General Tianwei, which also had a lot of influence on this matter.

Mrs. Dai thought: Zhong Huozi is not dead, and sooner or later he will come again to seek revenge. At that time, Brother Shan had not returned from Tianjing, what would happen? And when Brother Shan favored Yan Tianshi today, what Brother Shan did was all against the will of the Son of Heaven and Yan Tianshi, and if he went to Tianjing, he might not be able to end up with a good result. Just let Brother Shan not go to Tianjing. But how to convince him?

After thinking for half the night, Mrs. Dai didn't come up with a conclusion, half lying on the chair, and fell asleep in a daze. It wasn't until the morning that I was woken up by a knock on the door. Then a maidservant's voice came from outside the door: "Madam, are you awake, do you want the slave maid to serve you to freshen up and then go to the dining room to eat?"

Mrs. Dai turned her head and saw that Hong Chen was staring at herself with a pair of bloodshot eyes, and hurriedly said: "There's no need to freshen up, the general has a lot of tasks left, and there is only more than one day left, so I have to deal with it urgently." After a while, you can make a basin of water and tell the kitchen to make a big bowl of porridge and bring some raw fruits and vegetables. ”

"Yes, ma'am. ”

The handmaid took his leave.

Ji Cha came out from behind the screen, stretching his waist, seeing Hong Chen's bloodshot eyes, yawning and laughing, and said, "Look at you like this, you really haven't slept all night?"

"I'm sleepy, go sleep now. ”

Hong Chen walked behind the screen and saw that there was a small wooden single bed with a clean white mattress on it, but it had been crumpled. Bend down and flatten the mattress, then slowly lie down, close your eyes and fall asleep.

After Mrs. Dai woke up, her mood seemed to be much calmer, and she handled those documents with peace of mind, picking up the pen and ticking, and her movements were skillful. Ji Cha was not in the mood to watch Mrs. Dai's work, so he looked for books from the bookshelf, but saw that there were still some books on the bookshelf in addition to the art of war, geographical maps and ordinary poetry books, so he took down a volume and looked through it.

Just flip through it casually, and you will see that some of the pages in this book are illustrated. Ji Cha doesn't like words very much, but is quite interested in pictures, once turned over a book of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", which painted many strange animals, and a volume of "Journey to the West", in which the portraits of gods and demons are also very exciting. Flipping to the place with the illustrations, Ji Cha saw two naked men and women hugging each other, their actions were very indecent, their faces immediately burned, and they hurriedly closed the pages of the book and put them back on the shelf. Xin said: "This Dai Wanshan is really not a serious guy, and there are such filthy books hidden in the study." What if his daughter sees it? I'm here to snatch this guy's sword, it's like doing the right thing for heaven. Then he took down another geographical atlas and looked at it.

The maidservant brought gruel and fruits and vegetables to the study, but Ji Cha did not drink the porridge, but only took a peach and an apple to gnaw. After flipping through the geographical atlas for a while, I felt more and more bored, and I remembered what I had just read: "What kind of text is written with such an indecent map?" It must be very filthy...... I have to go through it again, ponder and study the details, analyze the psychology of the people who write and read the books, and criticize them. So I took the volume again, opened the part next to the illustration just now, and saw that its Chinese characters were indeed as I expected. After reading that paragraph, I wanted to put it back again, but I was curious if there would be a similar plot later, so I kept flipping it down, and the more I looked at it, the hotter it became. Through a layer of fake skin, Mrs. Dai on the side couldn't see how red Ji Cha's face was at this time.

In the middle of the afternoon, Hong Chen woke up, felt a little thirsty, and walked out of the screen to drink something, but saw Mrs. Dai lying on the desk to take a nap, and Ji Cha was reading a book seriously. walked to the table by himself, picked up the teapot, poured a cup of cold water and drank a big sip, filled the cup again, walked to Ji Cha with the water, bent down, and leaned his head over, wanting to see what kind of book it was, so that Ji Cha could read it so seriously.

Ji Cha only felt that his hair had been touched, and when he turned his head in shock, he found that Hong Chen was by his side, and hurriedly closed the book in his hand.

"What are you looking at?"

Ji Cha glanced at Hong Chen, got up and put the book back on the shelf, secretly glad that what he turned to at this time was just an ordinary plot, and there were no fragrant words and pictures.

Hong Chen listened to Ji Cha's heart pounding, and his breathing was shorter than usual, and out of curiosity, he reached out to get the book. Ji Cha immediately drank, "You are not allowed to read that book." Hong Chen asked, "Why? Just let you see it, not me?" Ji Cha said: "I said that if I don't allow you to see it, you won't be allowed to see it, if you look at it...... I'll just ......"

"What are you?"

"I'll make you a eunuch. ”

"Oh. ”

Hong Chen probably also knew that eunuch was a bad word, so he stopped taking the book, but secretly remembered the name of the book, and thought to himself: "You don't let me read it now, I'll read it myself when I have the opportunity." This may be some kind of martial arts secret method, after you read it, even the heartbeat and breathing are different from usual, and the effect must be very amazing. ”

At this time, Mrs. Dai was woken up by the words of the two, rubbed her eyes, and said, "Brother Shan hasn't come back today, and you two have to wait another night." ”

"It's just one night, and it doesn't matter. Ji Cha waved his hand, "Anyway, you have a place to eat, drink and sleep here, and there is a separate thatched house in the courtyard, so we can live happily here." ”

Mrs. Dai didn't say anything for a long time, just looked out the window in a daze, and waited until the sun went down and the room was dark, and then she suddenly spoke: "I want to ask you two for one thing." ”

Ji Cha said, "Are you going to defecate?"

"It's not. Mrs. Dai turned around, glanced at Ji Cha, and then at Hong Chen, her lips trembled twice, she took a few deep breaths, and seemed to have made great determination before she said, "I want to invite you two to kill two people." ”

Ji Cha was categorical: "We only rob swords, not kill people." ”

Lady Dai said, "If you help me kill those two, I will tell you the whereabouts of a peerless sword." ”

Ji Cha hesitated for a moment and said, "What peerless treasure sword?"

"It is the famous knife that Dayu once ranked second - 'dispel sorrow'. Originally belonged to the sword emperor of the previous generation of Yunwu Mountain. Its whereabouts were unknown twenty years ago, but I learned of it by chance. Don't try to force me to say that if you don't kill those two people, even if you want to kill me, I won't say a word. ”

Mrs. Dai spoke slowly, clearly, and firmly.

"Do you think I'm going to kill people because of the lure of a broken knife?" Ji Cha snorted, and his tone eased, "Tell me first, which two people to kill?"
