Sure enough, about half an hour after Chabixing ordered, news came from below. Sure enough, an assassin broke free from the ropes and took the opportunity to escape when he was taken out of the woodshed and was about to be escorted to another place to ask alone.
As expected, the man did not rush to the library in front to hurt people, but quickly went down the mountain and left here.
Wei Yang naturally followed secretly.
After hearing this news, I was relieved and nervous. The plan went smoothly, but I didn’t know if Wei Yang would encounter any dangers, and I didn’t know what kind of truth he would follow that person to dig out.
Sometimes, danger is no more terrifying than the unknown truth.
Wei Yang left for more than an hour. At noon, Qinghan accompanied me for lunch. I kept feeling lingering in my heart and didn't even eat much. However, just before three o'clock, Wei Yang finally came back.
When I saw him safe, of course I was relieved, but I felt sorry for the bumpy journey of his journey. His originally clean and neat clothes were stained with a lot of soil and grass chips, but he was very happy. When he came back, he drank three cups of tea, and then said to me with a smile: "Cousin, Wei Yang fulfilled his mission."
I hurriedly asked, "How about it, who is the messenger behind that person? Are they the fifth uncle and the others?"
He shook his head: "No."
Really not!
I took a deep breath. Such an answer was both good and not good for me. I hurriedly asked, "Who is that person?"
Wei Yang said: "I followed him all the way, and his traces disappeared until the back of a very deep villa."
“Villa?!”
Qinghan and I were both surprised and looked at each other in surprise.
Although I once guessed that it was the fifth uncle and suspected that there were other people, in general, we all thought it was a dangerous signal. So Wei Yang followed the past, and what appeared in my mind was the evil caves of Youdu, where the monsters that appeared in the story books lived, but what I didn't expect was that the end point he was tracking was actually a villa?
I hurriedly asked, "Who is there? Are you the fifth uncle and the others?"
Wei Yang said: "I only asked a little and confirmed that it was not the property of Uncle Wu and others; however, I didn't ask too much, because I was worried that I would ask too much, which would make people suspicious."
Qinghan immediately nodded and said, "You are so thoughtful."
After saying that, he turned to look at me: "Then we--"
I immediately stood up and said, "No need to delay, since the whereabouts of the lord behind the scenes have been found, let's go immediately."
Qinghan was not as impulsive as me. He thought for a while and said, "Don't be anxious first, I'll ask my people to prepare and go together."
I looked back at him and he said, "After all, I sent someone to sneak into Xishan Academy. Although those men in black did not carry knives, it may not necessarily be necessary to use knives in this world. They are still in danger. No one knows who lives in that villa."
I thought about it and his concerns really make sense.
Wei Yang said: "Actually, I think that villa looks very simple, not like a dangerous place, but Mr. Liu's words are correct, and you are prepared for any trouble."
So the cold people followed us and quickly went down the west mountain.
Wei Yang led us to gallop along the way he followed. Because it was raining the day before, the road was very wet, and even today the sun was shining brightly, it could not be completely dried. After walking for half an hour, a relatively wide road appeared in front of us. There was a river in front of us. The river water seemed not deep. A few children and an old man stood in the river with their legs rolled up and were playing with fish. On the other side of the river were several mountains, and some farmers could be seen farming at the foot of the mountain, and cattle and sheep were scattered on the ground.
What a beautiful pastoral scenery.
If I hadn't been caring about the men in black, I would have really wanted to stay and appreciate it. It would have been nice to live in such a place.
卫阳指着前面:“那个山庄,就在那后面,过了河就到了.”
I frowned. This place was really more peaceful than I thought. The scenery was so good that it made people linger. However, the more this happened, I became more uneasy. What kind of people live here, but I sent people to Xishan Academy to sneak into Nan Zhenyi's residence.
Perhaps, all these seemingly peaceful beautiful scenery, buried deep below, are the most terrible dangers.
Thinking of this, I whispered: "We should be careful."
Qinghan nodded, and everyone rode their horses and walked forward slowly. After a while, they arrived at the riverside. The river was indeed clear and shallow, probably as deep as a person's knees. You could almost see pebbles and playful fish at the bottom of the water. A few children were chasing a fish, chasing them. The old man looked at them with his hands behind his back, and he was full of happiness just looking at his back.
However, just as I was almost fascinated by the beautiful scenery, a bad stench suddenly came.
“Hmm——!”
I hurriedly covered my nose, and Qinghan next to me also frowned and covered his mouth and nose. When I looked back, I saw a man carrying a manure bucket walked over from behind us. The pungent smell immediately spread, and I was almost disgusted. But the man used to smelling it without feeling at all. He carried two buckets of manure and went up the bridge with a steady level.
Our team was so stinking that it could not speak. Qinghan covered his mouth and whispered: "Let's go to the bridge when he's crossed."
I nodded quickly, and I don’t know how long it will take to dissipate.
However, at this moment, a young man came to the other end of the bridge, carrying a load on his shoulders, but it was bright red. It seemed that he was specially given wedding cakes for others.
The two of them met in the middle of the bridge.
The man who was carrying the wedding cake was originally full of joy, but when he smelled the smell, he immediately frowned. When he saw the man holding a dung bucket in front of him, his face became unfavorable: "Run."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The middle-aged man carrying the dung bucket said dissatisfiedly: "Why don't you let it go?"
"Did you see what I chose? Wedding cake! My sister got married today, and I was the one who gave the wedding cake!"
"Is your sister married? Isn't my sister married?"
"Hey, why don't you have any eyes? Can this happy event be delayed? Who will delay the time? Wouldn't you just let me go?"
"Young man, keep a little divine when speaking, don't let your tongue go? Your happy events cannot be delayed, nor do you need to delay them. If you ask me to go there first, can you go there immediately?"
"Just kidding you, I'm carrying the wedding cake and let you be the one with feces?"
"What's wrong with the feces? Didn't it come from you?"
"you--!"
"What are you? Young man speaks well!"
"Okay, I won't bother with you, will you give in to me?"
"I won't let you, you will let me!"
...
Unexpectedly, a bad smell came out of a good pastoral landscape painting. Now such an incongruous sound sounded again, and the two of them stood on the bridge and started arguing.
I frowned: "That young man is really, it's nothing to let him go."
Wei Yang said: "This is the custom of this place. You cannot give way to the wedding cakes."
"Oh?" I turned my head and looked at him, then looked at the two people in a row in front of me, and said, "What should I do now? No one is willing to give in, can it be arguing until evening?"
Wei Yang looked up and looked at it: "It will take a while before the sun sets. Happy events are usually held at dusk. Let's see what's wrong with them now."
Both of them were anxious when they talked, but when they started arguing, they ignored everything and were only concerned about their anger. No one was willing to give in, and they just stood in a stalemate in the middle of the bridge.
They were so quarreling that even the children standing in the river and the old man stopped playing and turned to look at them.
"Do you give it?"
"Don't let it go! If you want to let it go, you will let it go!"
The words were like a car wheel, and I smiled bitterly when I heard it, and turned to look at Qinghan: "What should we do? Could it be that we have to wait for them to win or lose before we can cross the river?"
Qinghan rode on the horse and looked ahead, saying, "At this time, someone must give in."
"But I see their appearance, I'm afraid I won't let it go even after dinner."
At this moment, the old man who had been holding his hands behind his back and watching the children play and play slowly walked over and walked to the bridge. I realized that the old man was particularly tall. Although he was standing in the river, he was not much shorter than the two people standing on the bridge, and he was particularly burly. He wore a straw hat on his head, covering his face. He only saw him looking at the two people, and then said, "It's not a solution for you like this. Why don't you come and help you?"
When he spoke, my heart hopped abruptly.
This sound-!
Feeling my whole body trembling, Qinghan turned around and looked at me: "What's wrong?"
I didn't say anything, just opened my eyes and looked at the old man's back. He said, "Young man, your wedding cake cannot be given to others, then stand and don't move. This man, give me your burden, I will take it for you, go down the river and go around behind the young man, and I will give you the burden. In this way, none of you give in to anyone, but you can all walk away. How about it?"
When everyone heard this, it really made sense!
The two quarrels were originally a little stingy, but the old man walked over and seemed to have an invisible momentum. As soon as he opened his mouth, they were like obedient sheep. The middle-aged man gave him the burden, went down the bridge and walked behind the young man, and then took the burden from him.
The old man smiled and clapped his hands: "Okay, you guys go."
The two of them seemed to be unable to even speak for a while, and they walked away with a complicated expression.
My eyes were staring at his back as soon as the old man opened his mouth, until this moment, he took off his straw hat from his head and gently fanned himself.
