Chapter 142: Grandiose
At 8 o'clock in the morning on October 16, north of Wuzhen. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
As Wuzhen wakes up from the morning sun, it becomes busy, people come and go on the bluestone pavement, and several canopy boats sail past the criss-crossing river, and the sound of talking and flowing water is in the ears, and it is a scene of harmony and tranquility.
On one of the rivers, there is a canopy boat that stands out from the crowd, this boat is divided into two small cabins, the wooden lattice of the outer canopy is embedded with a piece of thin oyster shell pieces of one inch square, for the purpose of sheltering from the rain and transmitting light, the hull is smaller than the big ship commonly known as "Sanming tile", but it is much larger than the ordinary small sampan, and the speed of the boat is very fast, so it has a good name "shuttle fly".
In the cabin of the "Shuttle Fly", the ghost waiter lifted the curtains, looked at the pedestrians coming and going on the shore, looked at it for a while, and found nothing unusual, so he lowered the curtains.
The interior of the cabin is very spacious, and a square table can be placed to accommodate two people, but the cabin roof is very low, and people cannot stand up straight in it, so they can only bend over or sit.
As soon as the ghost attendant turned around, he saw a large hand with protruding green muscles handing over a delicate small porcelain cup.
"Come, have a cup of tea and refresh yourself. Wang Zhengyou's voice.
The ghost waiter casually took the small porcelain cup, raised his head and drank it all, and Wang Zhengyou, the "fast knife hand" sitting opposite him, saw this, showed a wry smile, and said to him: "Do you look down on this tea? Although it is a bargain, but it is also Biluochun, you are good, drink it like a big bowl of tea?"
There was a ceramic teapot on the square table, and the ghost waiter raised his hand to pick it up, poured the porcelain cup in his hand to the brim, and then drank it all again, and then said coldly Wang Zhengyou: "Now is not the time to taste tea." ”
"Do you still know?" Wang Zhengyou sighed, put down the teacup, and looked at the ghost waiter helplessly, "Alas, I really don't know what to say about you, knowing that the Haisha Sect has laid a net in Wuzhen, but you still insist on coming, aren't you afraid of being ambushed?" he paused, and added, "It's just that you insist on coming, why only take me with you? If this is really an ambush, I'm afraid that we won't even be able to keep a whole corpse." ”
The ghost attendant replied lukewarmly to Wang Zhengyou: "Don't worry, the whole corpse will definitely be able to stay, and before they find what they are looking for, the sea sand party will treasure our bodies." ”
"I've got enough crow's mouth," Wang Zhengyou couldn't laugh or cry, "You little ghost is more crow-mouthed than me." ”
"Actually, the chances of survival are much higher than if we were to travel lightly and simply than if we brought everyone here," the ghost attendant explained to Wang Zhengyou, "The goal of collective action is too big, and our large group of people will come over, which is equivalent to telling the world that we are coming! ”
"Hmph, I don't know if you should say that you are both wise and brave or brave and resourceful......" Wang Zhengyou shook his head and sighed, lowered his head and took a sip of tea, and then said to himself, "Or both?"
The ghost waiter didn't answer this, he turned around, lifted the curtain on the left, looked to the shore, and then lifted the curtain on the right, and then sat back down at the square table, the expression on his face became a little strange.
"Didn't you see the secret whistle of the Haisha Sect?" asked Wang Zhengyou.
The ghost servant bowed slightly.
"That's a good thing. Wang Zhengyou took a slow sip of tea, "Maybe they didn't come at all." ”
"Or maybe they're hiding it deeper. The ghost attendant added.
"Come on, which sentry can escape your fiery eyes?" Wang Zhengyou smiled self-deprecatingly, "Sometimes, I really feel that there is no point in you hiring us - because you can do everyone's work alone." ”
Listening to Wang Zhengyou's self-deprecation, the ghost servant didn't answer, and Zhengse said: "Since the Haisha faction has installed a bugging device in the hotel, it must know that we will come to Wuzhen, and it should be all over Wuzhen, but I haven't even seen a suspicious person now, this situation is not right, there must be something big in the Haisha faction, we must always be vigilant." ”
"This is natural," Wang Zhengyou nodded, and asked suspiciously, "Little ghost, since you know that the Haisha Sect will set up an ambush in Wuzhen, why do you still want to let this 'Shuttle Fei' be rented? Such a big guy walks on the river, and the goal is too big! Moreover, 'Shuttle Fly' is rare now, you can see how many people have pointed at us along the way!"
"Being too conspicuous will not be suspected. The ghost attendant smiled.
"How?"
"Let me give you an analogy, Lao Wang, you are chasing a person, but you lost it, and now there are two roads in front of you, one is a big road, some people are dancing lions, many people are watching, and the other is a secluded alley, which way will you go?"
"Of course it's a little ......," Wang Zhengyou said, suddenly making a sudden realization, "I understand, I won't fall for you - I'll take the avenue!"
"Oh?" the ghost waiter's eyes narrowed.
"I know what you want to say," Wang Zhengyou analyzed proudly, "There are many people on the road, and if there are many people, it will be easier to hide your tracks." ”
"That's the truth. The ghost squire slyly laughed.
When Wang Zhengyou saw his smile, he suddenly felt that he had been tricked, but he couldn't think of anything wrong, and he couldn't help scratching his head in confusion.
"If it were you, you'd focus on the crowd and not wonder who's doing the lion dance, would you?"
After hearing this, Wang Zhengyou was stunned for a moment, and then his expression became exciting.
After a while, he took a long breath and sighed: "I really didn't expect that there would be such a layer!"
"You can't think of it, and they can't think of it either," the ghost attendant explained slowly, "In the past few days, I have seen the 'immovable admiral' style, and I feel that he is likely to make two preparations in Wuzhen - to set up people in secluded places to prevent us from sneaking into the alleys, and on the other hand, to set up secret sentries on the streets so that we can't hide our tracks in the crowd, but here, he won't pay too much attention." The index finger of his right hand tapped lightly on the table, "The focus is also a blind spot." If it weren't for the lack of money, I would have wanted to rent a 'Sanming Wa'. At this, the ghost attendant smiled wryly.
Wang Zhengyou made up the scene of the "Sanmingwa" sailing, and immediately laughed dumbly, the river in Wuzhen is so narrow, won't it be stuffed to the brim? Rao is Zhu Xing, who has always been worried, and when he saw this scene, he probably only thought that it was a local tyrant who came to Wuzhen to travel, and the focus was also a blind spot, which is really right, um, but the rent is indeed too expensive.
For a moment, no one spoke. The cabin was quiet, and the ghost attendant lifted the curtains from time to time to look at the shore, while Wang Zhengyou sipped tea comfortably, and after a while, the latter finally couldn't bear it, put the porcelain cup on the table, and asked the ghost attendant: "Now that there are no bugs and cameras around, should you tell me, what are we doing in Wuzhen?"
"Find someone. The ghost waiter's answer was brief.
Wang Zhengyou asked, "Who are you looking for?"
The ghost attendant glanced at Wang Zhengyou and spit out four words from his mouth: "Wuzhen Shaojia." ”
"Wuzhen Shao family?" Wang Zhengyou thought about it, showed a thoughtful expression, held his chin and thought for a long time, and finally gave up, and asked the ghost servant directly, "Where is that sacred? How come I have never heard of it......"
"The Wuzhen Shao family is a descendant of the Fang Shi lineage. The ghost attendant replied.
"Fang Shi Yi Blood?" Wang Zhengyou was stunned for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Do you mean, like Xu Fu in the Qin Dynasty who coaxed the First Emperor to go to sea to find the elixir of life?"
The ghost attendant nodded, "Yes." ”
"Then wouldn't it be better for you to just say that the liar family?" Wang Zhengyou pursed his lips and said disappreciatively, "What else do you say, what kind of Fang Shi is so good." ”
"Don't say that when you get to the Shao's Mansion later," the ghost waiter said with a wry smile, "I don't want to be blasted out as soon as I enter the door." ”
Wang Zhengyou heard him say something interesting, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I have my own measure." ”
The ghost attendant told Wang Zhengyou some anecdotes about the Fangshi, after a while, "shuttle flying" sailed to the ferry near the Shaojia mansion, the boatman shouted to the cabin, the ghost attendant and Wang Zhengyou quickly got up, told the boatman to stay here less, and then got off the boat, came to the wooden trestle, walked across the trestle, the two walked up the bluestone steps, and after a while they stepped on the solid stone road, and the Shaojia's magnificent mansion was a hundred steps away.
Although they were very close to their destinations, the ghost attendant and Wang Zhengyou still maintained a high degree of vigilance, looking around from time to time to see if there were any suspicious figures in the white brick and black tile rooms and crowds, but they only saw pedestrians, and there was nothing abnormal.
Something is wrong......
The ghost servants secretly wondered, last night's conversation must have been overheard by the Haisha faction, and there was no reason why they shouldn't send someone here.
He frowned, what the hell was that "immovable admiral" planning?
After thinking about it, the two had come to the vicinity of the Shaojia mansion, Wang Zhengyou looked up at the plaque on the hanging flower door, with two big italics on it "Shao Mansion", and then looked at the quaint wall of white bricks and black tiles around it, and saw that the Shaojia mansion occupied one place, bordering the river in the north, and the other three sides were only connected to the outside world by arch bridges, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief, and said with emotion: "I really can't imagine that such a big mansion can be earned just by relying on the pit and abduction, and the Shao family in Wuzhen can be regarded as standing at the apex of the liar world, right?" After a pause, he added to himself, "But that's right, ordinary liars can deceive the common people, and the top of the sky is just a rich man, and the people are relatives of the emperor! ”
"The young family of Wuzhen lived in seclusion in the Qin and Han dynasties, where can they deceive the emperor!" said the ghost attendant with a wry smile.
"Oh...... I have lived in seclusion so long ago, and I can still have such a big mansion now, I understand!" Wang Zhengyou nodded, making a sudden realization, "It must be because their ancestor did a big deal! Little ghost, do you say that the ancestor of the Shao family is Xu Fu?"
