Chapter 203: Under the Mausoleum
Xiao Tian didn't see Su Jia in the main courtyard, so he ran in the direction of his house again. Xiao Tian felt that if Su Jia had something on her mind, it was very likely that she would be alone in the backyard like last night.
However, this time Xiao Tian was disappointed, Su Jia was not in the backyard, it can be said that Xiao Tian did not see Su Jia in the entire villa. Seeing Su Jia, Xiao Tian became a little anxious: "It's strange, Xiaojia Villa is so big, and no one is found anywhere, where will Jia'er go at this time......?"
Xiao Tian didn't dare to think too much, and asked many disciples in the villa, but they didn't see Su Jia. Xiao Tian walked out of the backyard with an impatient face, and then walked to his door. Xiao Tian looked at his home with a sideways face, and hesitated in his heart: "Do you want to ask your mother?" But my mother has a prejudice against Jia'er, how could she notice it...... No, it's important now, and I can't manage it so much......"
After thinking about it, Xiao Tian still returned home first. Zhang Xiu was doing needlework in the room at this time, and he didn't pay much attention to Xiao Tian's movements, Xiao Tian then asked his mother: "Mother, I want to ...... Ask you something......" Xiao Tian's voice trembled a little.
Zhang Xiu saw his son asking himself, so he turned his head and responded: "What's the matter, Ah Tian, didn't you accompany your Senior Brother Xiao Bo to the back mountain to practice martial arts today? What, is there anything to do when you come back?"
"Mother, I want to ...... for you" Xiao Tian Zhan said in a trembling voice, "I want to ask if you have seen Jia'er......" Xiao Tian knew that his mother didn't like Su Jia very much, and now he asked. Xiao Tian is kind of stubborn.
Sure enough, as soon as he heard Xiao Tian ask about Su Jia, Zhang Xiu straightened his face again. Then he said: "Ah God, now that you are back to Xiaojia Villa, you have to get the relationship between the villa back first, don't think about that wild girl all day long......"
"No, mother, today Senior Brother Xiao Wuzhong returned to Xiaojia Villa from Lingguan City and said a few words to Master. Senior Brother Xiao Bo and I also came down from the back mountain in advance, and left after a few words......" Xiao Tianshun said what happened today, "But I haven't seen Jia'er since then." I searched the whole villa, but I didn't see Jia'er, so I thought...... I want to ask my mother if you have seen Jia'er today......"
"How could I possibly meet her?" Zhang Xiu asked rhetorically, "when we talked yesterday." She wasn't in the house. I haven't seen my mother a few times, how can my mother deliberately know her movements?"
"Sure enough......" Xiao Tian muttered to himself, and then the whole person looked a little depressed.
Zhang Xiu watched his son being "stupefied" by a girl, so he sighed and said, "Oh God, my mother knows that you like that girl Su very much, but a manly husband is alive, and life can't just be for a woman." And if that woman is three from four virtues, that's it. Ah Tian, you have found such a wild girl, and you don't fully understand your life experience. Now that you're running around and you can't find it anywhere, is that girl really reliable?"
"Mother, Jia'er is not the person you said-" Xiao Tian knew that his mother was "slandering" Su Jia again, so he immediately argued, "She is a very haode girl, although sometimes her personality is a little cold, but I know very well that Jia'er is not only the most beautiful child I have ever seen, but also the kindest, the strongest, The most righteous girl, she has always dared to come forward for the sake of her children and her friends, can save the oppressed people, and has never put the pain in her heart in her heart, and always leaves others with a smile and an optimistic side, so Jia'er is the most haode girl I have ever seen!" Xiao Tian was a little excited, and said a lot of things, but he could also see that he really liked Su Jia.
Zhang Xiu looked at Xiao Tian so firmly, paused for a moment, and then said, "What does my mother mean...... Ah Tian, you still have a long way to go, but you can't just put your mind on a girl you like. Look at your current appearance, Miss Su is gone, and you don't care about anything as if you have lost your soul, what does this look like?"
"The child knows......" Xiao Tian first whispered, but out of concern for Su Jia, Xiao Tian continued, "But now I really can't help but be in a hurry, Senior Sister Xuecui said that Jia'er went to follow Senior Brother Xiao Wuzhong just now, but now that Senior Brother Wuzhong has left, Jia'er still hasn't come back, so I'm worried about whether Jia'er will have an accident-"
"Xiao Wuzhong?" Zhang Xiu asked when he heard Xiao Tian mention this matter again.
"Yes, Senior Brother Xiao Wuzhong, you should know, right?" Seeing that his mother was a little concerned, Xiao Tian continued, "He turned out to be the son of the predecessor of the previous head Xiao Rencong, but he once had a conflict with his master, and Zuihou left the villa alone and settled in Lingguan City near Bianliang. Now he's back, and I don't know what his intentions are. Xue Cui said that Jia'er went to follow Senior Brother Wuzhong, and the child thought to herself that Jia'er must have found something wrong before she followed. If Jia'er was still following Senior Brother Wuzhong at this time, maybe something would happen, so the child was very worried about Jia'er's ...... now."
Zhang Xiu listened, sighed softly and said, "Hey, I didn't expect that Miss Su you brought back Ah Tian would also have so many things, I really don't know if it's a blessing or a curse......
Xiao Tian knew that his mother-in-law still wouldn't approve of Su Jia, and seeing that his mother-in-law was a little complaining, Xiao Tian himself was also very sad......
On the side of Xiaojia Villa, Xiao Tian and the others were worried, but outside Lingguan City, Su Jia had been quietly following Xiao Wuzhong, and followed him in the direction of Lingguan City......
Lingguan City is only a small city attached to Bianliang City, and the suburbs of the city are indeed a little different. Because Bianliang City belongs to the important place of the pass, there is an open wasteland outside the city gate, and Lingguan City can only be regarded as a small city and a few towns, and there is still a vague jungle outside the city. Although there is a close connection between it and the military aircraft in Bianliang, there is no deliberate "expansion of territory" outside the city. But because of this, it is also much more convenient for Su Jia to follow Xiao Wuzhong, and every time Xiao Wuzhong goes a certain distance, Su Jia will perform light skills on the branches of the jungle and continue to follow, and Xiao Wuzhong has not been aware of it......
Finally came to the city of Lingguan City. I saw that this was indeed only a small city, and the height of the city wall could not be compared with Bianliang at all. If it was Su Jia, he would be able to step into the city wall with just a few steps. Although this is the military aircraft of Bianliang. However, there are not too many guards on the city wall, and a few light martial arts masters sneak in, and these scattered guards may not be able to detect it. However, it is no wonder that Lingguan City is only a subsidiary city of Bianliang after all, and there are dozens of affiliated cities under Bianliang, which are connected to each other and play their respective roles. It's like Lingguan City that I came to now. It is specifically responsible for the military aircraft of Bianliang City, and there are other affiliated cities, which are responsible for transporting food and materials or official locations. If there is a war outside Bianliang Pass. Bianliang City is naturally the first to bear the brunt, resisting the invasion with the most elite troops, and most of the subsidiary cities behind are responsible for transporting reserve military supplies, so these subsidiary cities do not have the same strict military guards as Bianliang City.
But that's fine. The army is poorly guarded. Su Jia won't be too troublesome to get in and out of the city. Like when I first went to Bianliang City with Ah Tian, I hesitated for a long time to bring weapons into the city or not;
Xiao Wuzhong still didn't notice that Su Jia was following him, and walked straight to the city of Lingguan City. Su Jia followed and came to the gate of the city, where the three big characters of "Lingguan City" were engraved on the broken city wall as if they had witnessed the vicissitudes of the ancient city. It gives a sense of depression. But Su Jia didn't have the heart to put her mood on this at this time, what she was going to do now was what she was going to do. It is to follow Xiao Wuzhong well and see what his movements will be.
When Xiao Wuzhong entered Lingguan City, he naturally wanted to go home directly. Su Jia thought the same way, she pondered in her heart: "It seems that I heard that no one in Xiao Family Villa has been to Xiao Wuzhong's home in Lingguan City, I want to see what this Xiao Wuzhong's home is like......"
The streets of Lingguan City are naturally not as prosperous as Bianliang City, but there is still a section of the road from time to time that is crowded with people - this is a good thing for Su Jia, who is tracking. Xiao Wuzhong didn't care about anything, and continued to walk in the direction of his house, and Su Jia also pretended to be a passerby and followed closely. After about a few bends, Xiao Wuzhong gradually came to the entrance of a compound, and then Xiao Wuzhong stopped at the gate of this compound - it seems that this is the place where Xiao Wuzhong settled in Lingguan City.
Su Jia came to a bend in Zuihou and looked at everything sideways. I saw Xiao Wuzhong greet the servant at the door, and then walked into the courtyard with a big fall.
"Look at it like this, Xiao Wuzhong is the master here......" Su Jia muttered in her heart.
Xiao Wuzhong entered the compound, and Su Jia naturally couldn't follow Xiao Wuzhong like before. Su Jia looked up and saw that the wall of this courtyard didn't seem to be very high. After thinking about it, taking advantage of the fact that there were not many people around, Su Jia tiptoed on her feet and jumped to the wall.
Su Jia looked into the courtyard from the fence and saw that this was really like a rich family. Thinking that Xiao Wuzhong was just a disciple of the Xiao Family Villa, even if he was the son of the previous head, he would never have so much money out of thin air and build such a luxurious courtyard in Lingguan City.
Because it was on the fence of the courtyard, for fear of being seen by passers-by outside, Su Jia continued to walk sideways along the eaves of the wall, and then saw the house like the main hall, and flew by. Su Jia's figure is very light, and his light skills in the Wind Chasing School are also excellent, even in broad daylight, he leaps from the eaves of the wall to the roof of the main hall, including Xiao Wuzhong, no one in the courtyard notices.
Su Jia flew to the eaves of the main hall, which was very beneficial to Su Jia - I saw that the shape of this eaves was very extraordinary, and the eaves pavilion was not completely made according to the eaves structure of the south. The four corners of the eaves are divided into upper and lower layers, the lower layer is used to drip the rainwater that falls on the eaves on rainy days, and the upper layer is slightly upturned, which seems to be a status symbol. However, Su Jia was lying on the eaves, and the upturned corner pavilion just covered Su Jia's body, so that people outside could not immediately see Su Jia crawling on the eaves, which could only be said to be better for Su Jia, who was quietly tracking......
Xiao Wuzhong never came out after entering the main hall, and it seemed that he was going to talk about something here. Su Jia prostrate on the eaves, quietly peeling off a brick and tile on the eaves, leaving a little gap, so that Su Jia could see and hear Xiao Wuzhong's every move, word and deed later. And today the weather is gloomy and there is no sunshine. So when Su Jia moved away from the bricks, no sunlight entered the house, so it was even more difficult for Xiao Wuzhong to notice that there were people on the eaves - this was for Su Jia. It's also a perfect condition.
Su Jia squatted on the eaves, paying full attention to everything in the hall......
After Xiao Wuzhong returned home, he took off his luxurious robe and threw it to his subordinates. Then he commanded his servant, "Go, and call those men—"
"Yes—" The servant replied, and bowed down.
"Xiao Wuzhong wants to find someone. Who will it be......" Su Jia on the house kept muttering in her heart, continuing to look at everything in the house.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for several lean, average-looking people to walk into the hall. After meeting Xiao Wuzhong. The men knelt down and said, "My lord, the little ones are back...... and listening to their tones, it seemed that they had just gone to do something.
Xiao Wuzhong eased his nerves, and then asked, "Just now you came back from the back mountain path of Xiaojia Villa. Didn't let anyone else find out, did you?"
"Nope. Sir, we're careful this time......" replied one of the men, who resembled a leader.
When Su Jia heard this, she suddenly realized in her heart: "I see, the black-clothed walkers I met in Xiaojia Villa just now are these people...... It seems that this Xiao Wuzhong is really not simple, he keeps seeing eyeliner in Lingguan City and Xiaojia Villa, he must have some ulterior secrets......"
"Hmph, it's okay this time......" Xiao Wuzhong glanced at casually.
"How's things going on over there, my lord?" the leader asked again.
"It's a success. My master's side is now focused on the matter of the worship day in the gang, and he will not pay attention to this. Two days later, someone from the villa will come here to pick up the token 'Bai Ling Fengjin'. Then go back to the worship day, and I can take advantage of the opportunity when all the people of the Xiao family are focusing on the worship day and complete the jihua without being seen and seen......" Speaking of this, Xiao Wuzhong had a cold smile on his face.
Su Jia squatted on the eaves, and she had a keen sense of hearing, and she heard Xiao Wuzhong's words word by word clearly. Knowing that Xiao Wuzhong really had an ulterior conspiracy, Su Jia couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. Immediately, Su Jia continued to hold her breath and observe Xiao Wuzhong's words and deeds in the house......
"But don't we have a few more that we haven't brought here?" the leader asked again.
"It's not because you rice buckets were discovered when you sneaked into the villa yesterday!" Thinking of yesterday's failure, Xiao Wuzhong said a little angrily.
"Yes, my lord, we were wrong...... the leader continued to bow his head.
Xiao Wuzhong came back to his senses and thought about it, and then said, "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you don't get those ones." The worship day in the gang is just around the corner, and I don't have much time to wait any longer, because jihua can only be practiced on that day. Although there are no of them, it has little impact, and it does not prevent Jihua from continuing to implement ......"
"And what do we do now?" the leader asked again.
Xiao Wuzhong thought about it for a while, and then instructed: "I seem to remember that Lord Bian Yang Cong came here to inspect today, and Lord Bian Yang Cong is my friend again. Go, bring Bian Yang from the adult, I personally have something I want to tell him-"
"Yes, my subordinates obey, and my subordinates will do it—" replied the leader, and then he got up and walked out of the main hall with a few other men, to find the "Lord Bianyangcong" who was patrolling here, as they had spoken.
Xiao Wuzhong didn't say anything in the room for the time being, and Su Jia on the eaves had too many doubts at this time: "What are the 'those things that didn't get them'? If they sneaked into Xiaojia Villa yesterday to get 'those few' things...... Yesterday I found them in the back mountain Qinghu, that is, next to the cold cave, if they were going to the cold cave to get something, what was in the cold cave that they were interested in...... Xiao Family Villa's martial arts are naturally impossible, Xiao Wuzhong basically knows it, he is familiar with the tunnels in the cold cave, there must be something else...... By the way, it's a copper cannon! Ah Tian They once said that the cold cave once hid the copper cannons captured by Zhu Yuanzhang's rebels when he was crusading against Zhang Shicheng, and recently I heard that the copper cannons in the villa often disappear, it seems that it was really Xiao Wuzhong who left Xiaojia Villa, but what did Xiao Wuzhong want to do with these copper cannons...... Lingguan City is the military key place of Bianliang, and when he was in the back mountain just now, Xiao Wuzhong also talked about Wang Dasheng of Bianliang City, it is ......"
A very terrible thought flashed through Su Jia's mind...... (To be continued......)
